Chapter Twenty-Three: Dyeing Summer
Zhou Rui's expression on his face changed several times, and he really looked like a loyal old servant, and he arched his hand and said, "Since the young lady has decided, it is inconvenient for the old slave to say anything." ”
He gave the maid who was waiting beside him a look, and the maid hurriedly welcomed the people outside.
Qian Rouniang, the leader, looks like she is in her early thirties, with a yellow silk flower pinned to her head, wearing a half-worn and not new clothes, with a beautiful appearance, a pair of eyes and eyebrows lowered, and she looks extremely weak.
Yang Susu's appearance is somewhat similar to Yu Mingzhu, but she is not as delicate and atmospheric as Yu Mingzhu, but she is also a beauty.
On the contrary, Yang Sheng looked ordinary, and he was extremely short, looking cringe.
"Yang Qian has come to pay a salute to the young lady."
This and Qian Rouniang pulled a pair of their children to kneel towards Yu Mingzhu, Yu Mingzhu hurriedly asked the maid next to him to help people up, and said with a smile: "Why is my aunt so polite, they are all a family, in the future, you will treat this as your own home, if you have anything you want, just find Zhou Rui's housekeeper, he is extremely lenient and is my father's right-hand man." ”
Yu Mingzhu smiled kindly, but this week Rui had a stiff face.
Qian Rouniang and others saluted Zhou Rui, and Zhou Rui hurriedly returned the salute.
"Miss is too polite, we will be the subordinates of the house in the future, and we can't make trouble for the uncle and you."
The uncle that Qian Rouniang said is naturally Yu Mingzhu's father.
"Auntie is outside, Steward Zhou, you can take your aunt and them down to settle down, just come as we agreed before, but don't treat your aunt and them badly."
Steward Zhou nodded, and led the people out.
Ran Chun couldn't help but interject: "Miss, I don't think that Miss is a good person, her mother has been peeking at you when she is talking, and her eyes seem to be unconvinced." ”
When Ran Dong heard Ran Chun say this, he suddenly said with some disdain: "She is a poor relative who can't beat the eight poles, and she dares to disagree with Miss?" I think that the young lady is too beautiful, and she can't see it, and the poor relatives have to look like poor relatives, and they can't be like some people, who are clearly lowly maids, but their partiality is higher than the sky......"
When Ran Chun heard Ran Dong scolding Huai like this, her smiling face turned red, she clutched the handkerchief in her hand, and cried out with a wow.
Dye Dong heard Dye Chun crying, and cried along.
"You're going to cry, right, it's not that I'm always choreographed in front of Miss, I'll tell you, and I'll too!"
Although Yu Mingzhu doesn't have a good temper, she treats her personal maid very well, so the two of them are becoming more and more lawless, and Ran Qiu is a stuffy gourd, so naturally she can't control them.
It's that Ran Xia, who has been on leave, is an old and serious person.
According to the memories of her previous life, when Dye Xia returned from leave, I was afraid that she would beg her to let her marry.
Yu Mingzhu said helplessly: "Don't cry both of you, go to Mama Su to learn the rules, before the master speaks, he will cry, go down quickly, don't annoy people here." ”
Dye Spring and Dye Dong cried and cried.
Only Ran Qiu was left waiting here, and Yu Mingzhu said to Ran Qiu: "In a while, you will send someone to Ran Xia's house to ask, when will she come back?" ”
Ran Qiu immediately lowered his head, and said after a while: "Miss, I'm afraid Sister Ran Qiu won't be able to come back." ”
Yu Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, it was indeed the thing that Dye Qiu said in her previous life.
"Sister Ranxia's brother has made a family appointment for her."
Yu Mingzhu vaguely remembered the appearance of Dye Xia Fujun, in her previous life, she did not have a good life after getting married, and her in-laws made it difficult for her to give birth to a son, forcing her to give birth to four children in three years, and finally was wrapped in a broken mat and thrown at a mass grave in a heavy snowfall.
This was all known to Yu Mingzhu a long, long time later.
Somexia has only one brother and is said to be addicted to gambling.
"Would Somexia be willing to marry that person?"
Dye Qiu was stunned for a moment, and she spoke: "Miss, how can a woman say such a thing?" ”
Yu Mingzhu was suddenly a little funny, even if she was a young lady like her, she didn't have half autonomy over her marriage, how could she ask Ran Xia to say whether she was willing or not.
"You go and spread the word that I want to see her, after all, the master and servant."
Dye Qiu nodded.
Yu Mingzhu returned her deed when she was sixteen years old, which was really a bit troublesome.
Thinking of this, Yu Mingzhu couldn't help but touch her stomach, she felt a little hungry, she looked at the Western clock outside.
It was already noon, and she hurriedly sent someone to call Gu Huaiming for dinner.
Dye Chun and Dye Dong were making trouble, Dye Autumn went out on an errand, and there was no girl around to take advantage of her, so Yu Mingzhu had to go to the study to invite Gu Huaiming to dinner.
After thinking about it, I simply asked the kitchen to send the dishes to the study.
As soon as Yu Mingzhu entered, she heard Mi Yue's voice, and saw Mi Yue, who was already well, standing beside the bed, looking at the red belly pocket in her hand suspiciously.
"How can there be women's underwear in my uncle's study?"
Xiao Thirteen, who was cleaning up the room, suddenly widened his eyes in confusion.
Gu Huaiming, who was drinking tea, coughed lightly.
Mi Yue is three points similar to her sister, but the stupidity is more and more direct.
Yu Mingzhu came in and saw the clothes, although she was a little surprised, she still said: "It should be me who fell, my uncle is a happy and quiet person, if you are like this again, don't wait in the study in the future." ”
Mi Yue's little face turned white with fright, she hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said carefully: "The slave knows that she is wrong, and the slave must take care of her own mouth in the future." ”
It's just that their conversation made the girl Jiang outside the door a little gloomy.
"Husband, let's eat."
Gu Huaiming happened, Yu Mingzhu and his people attached great importance to eating, and it didn't matter if they got married for a few days, but this meal was indispensable.
Yu Mingzhu sat down, the maid in the kitchen put all the dishes on it, and asked the other idlers to retreat.
"I specially instructed the kitchen to let them follow the dishes of Tianxianglou and make the stir-fried dishes of the capital together, how about the husband hurry up and taste it?"
Gu Huaiming tasted it.
"I need to think about it, after all, the industries involved in this Yu family are not comparable to the eight major salt merchants, and after I am a criminal minister, I am afraid that it will be inconvenient to act, and some things must be considered in the long run."
Yu Mingzhu finished saying that sentence to Gu Huaiming in the shade of a tree in the morning.
Gu Huaiming only said: "I never thought that you would have such knowledge." ”
Yu Mingzhu just smiled and said, "Husband, think about it and talk to me again." ”
Yu Mingzhu poured Gu Huaiming a glass of wine, and said with a smile: "Husband, eat more, I'm not in a hurry." ”
Gu Huaiming ate slowly, and said after a while: "It tastes good, but it's really not as good as Tianxianglou." ”
Yu Mingzhu said with a smile: "It's a pity that Tianxiang Building has been destroyed, and I can't easily taste it." ”
Before this dynasty, the cooking of Daliang was steaming and frying, and pure iron forging and vegetable oil were not popularized, but in the year of Jinghe in this dynasty, a northwest chef invented iron pot stir-frying.
Somewhere between fried and boiled, the taste is extraordinary.
Gu Huaiming turned his eyes to look at Yu Mingzhu and said with a smile: "If Madame is really greedy, she can eat it tonight." ”
