Chapter 117: Concerns
Behind Yuan Dongchu and the others, Xingyao and the others stopped at the gate of the courtyard, their faces hesitant.
In the small courtyard, a group of women entered Hulala, chattering and talking non-stop, without mentioning where to put things.
Xingyao felt that he couldn't cope with this kind of scene, so he had to use his newly learned skills at the moment, learning from the Liao family's manager, and coughing dryly.
This sound really attracted the attention of the aunts, sisters-in-law, and girls in the yard.
Xiuchun Niang and Xiuchun's sister-in-law have long paid attention to these two people, and what these two people are holding must be the items brought back from Tongzhou at the beginning of winter.
Xiuchun Niang and the two are very itchy, I heard Aunt Liu say just now that she has been in and out of the mansion several times at the beginning of Yuan Dongchu. From this association, maybe the wives and ladies in the mansion will have gifts.
What came out of a wealthy family......
I wonder if they will have a chance to open their eyes up close and see what the objects of the rich people look like.
The two of them were full of expectations in their hearts, looked at Yuan Dongchu, and waited for her to speak.
Although this is his own home, Yuan Dongchu also listened to Xiuchun's introduction, but after all, he did not arrange it himself.
In order to reduce the handling procedures, once in place, she asked Xiao Cui Niang quite cautiously: "Those are the things I brought back, let's open them and take a look at them later, and leave my house, right?" ”
"This is the house." Little Cui Niang pointed to the house to the west.
Xiao Cui answered, and hurriedly took the key to open the door.
Yuan Dongchu turned around and beckoned Xingyao, "Put this house in the west." ”
Xingyao and the others hurriedly followed Xiao Cui, opened the door and put down their things. He withdrew without staying for a moment, said hello, and walked away.
The room on the east side is Yuan Changhe's room, and it is naturally not easy for others to go in and wander around, but Yuan Dongchu can. And she's just come back, so she always wants to see what kind of furnishings her father's new room is.
Xiao Cui opened the lock on the east room, and Yuan Dongchu pushed open the door and looked inside.
The room layout is quite simple, a bed is placed in the middle position, and a small wardrobe and two boxes are placed at the foot of the bed.
The room is quite large, and it should be used as a hall at the same time.
So, the window position is a table, a few chairs. It can be used for meals on weekdays or when you come to discuss things with someone.
Yuan Dongchu took a brief look and withdrew from the east room.
Xiuchun Niang and Xiao Cuiniang have already taken Xiuchun's sister-in-law to work, pouring water, pouring water, adding firewood to geniuses, preparing to eat, and preparing to eat, the room and the yard suddenly became lively.
Xiuchun pulled Yuan Dongchu: "Let's go, let's go to your house." Your dad got you a ...... What's that called? Yes, soft couch. It's quite rare, Xiaocui and I helped to sort out the bedding, and I wanted to sit on it at that time. But you're not here, we're just embarrassed. ”
"You just say you are, don't pull me." Xiao Cui smacked at her and quickly took herself out. It's embarrassing to take out such a shameful thing and say that you must despise her!
"Okay, okay, it's my own." Xiuchun is very single.
When he said this, Yuan Dongchu almost laughed: "Not really, right?" ”
"How not? That thing is very rare, and at first glance it is the furnishings in the rooms of rich wives and ladies. Xiuchun spoke, and the three little sisters entered the house.
Xiuchun pointed to the soft couch on one side, "Look, it's very rare, right?" ”
As he spoke, he pulled Yuan Dongchu to the low couch and urged: "Hurry up and sit down and try it." ”
Yuan Dongchu was surprised: "Aren't you going to try?" ”
"Hmph," Xiuchun was not only disdainful, but also quite proud, "I really think I don't understand the rules, how can there be a reason for the guests to sit on it before the host's house is touched?" ”
Xiuchunniang came in with water, and when she saw this situation, she stopped: "Don't make trouble, wipe your hands and faces at the beginning of winter, and it's not too late for you to play again." ”
As he spoke, he poured water into the copper basin on the basin stand in the corner of the room.
Thanks to Xiuchun Niang, Yuan Dongchu washed his hands and faces, and the three of them really sat on the couch.
The dim sum that Xiuchun Niang said, as well as a few foods prepared by Yuan Changhe, and then made tea, all of which were placed on the small table in front of the three of them.
Strictly speaking, this is a cool collapse, which is convenient to use in the summer.
At this time, it is placed in the house, but it is used as an arhat bed, and it is covered with thick cotton pads, and it is really convenient and comfortable to sit on.
Xiuchun couldn't stop praising for a long time, until he was too happy, and then asked about Yuan Dongchu's itinerary.
Such as: What are the adventures? How big is the big house that you come in and out of? How is it compared to the mansion of the big family in their town? How did you come back with two more boats?
Faced with a series of questions and the curious eyes of the two of them, Yuan Dongchu didn't know where to start.
Tell them a little bit? That's a lot to talk about.
didn't mention anything else, only the big mansion she went to. They should be very interested and curious about this kind of thing.
"Zhuo Mansion!" Not only Xiuchun exclaimed, but also the people who were sitting in rows of stools and chairs were not calm, and Xiuchun Niang and Xiuchun's sister-in-law were not far behind, and they also exhaled together.
Xiao Cui Niang and Xiao Cui also looked surprised and their eyes widened.
Before, they really didn't know what Zhuo Mansion was.
But with Gu Tiancheng and Yuan Dongchu's last trip to Tongzhou, as well as the two extra boats out of thin air, the people of Yishui County made up for the details of Hongjiang Shipyard and Zhuo's family.
Especially the relevant people, like Xiaocui and Xiuchun, know that everything is very detailed. Whoever could be heard, he didn't dare to leak it out at all.
Hongjiang Shipyard? It is a rich and noble family that ordinary people can't reach, accumulating a hundred years of foundation and money, looking at the north and south of the river, the Central Plains, if you talk about handicrafts and folk wealth, Hongjiang Shipyard can be said to be prominent to the extreme.
As the owner of Hongjiang Shipyard, Zhuo Jia...... Needless to say?
Zhang Dahu in Yanpu Town? In the face of this kind of huge wealth, there is no sense of existence? There are some things leaking out of the fingers of Ren Zhuofu, which are more than the belongings of Zhang Dahu's family.
"At the beginning of winter, you actually went to Zhuo's mansion! It's a big family in the town...... Forget it, don't mention his family. Xiuchun was ashamed of the comparisons he had made. Although she didn't even go into Zhang Dahu's backyard, she decisively ignored Zhang Dahu.
"Sister Dong Chu, what are you doing at his house? How many times have you been there? "Xiao Cui is curious about this.
"At the beginning of winter, what are the wives and ladies of the Zhuo family wearing?" Xiuchun asked almost at the same time as Xiaocui, but the focus was completely different, "Are they all wearing the kind of clothes that are shiny and as soft as water, and their heads are full of gold and silver beads?" ”
Yuan Dongchu corrected Xiuchun first: "How can anyone wear a head full of gold, silver, and beads?" Rich and noble families do pay attention to clothing and jewelry, but they don't all wear it on their heads. ”
If there is no accident, she plans to take Xiuchun and the others out to do things, and this unreliable concept must be changed.
After that, she replied to Xiaocui: "There are some things that need to be discussed, and it is more convenient for women to talk to each other, and it is the grandmother of the Zhuo family and the second lady of his family who came forward from Hongjiang Shipyard, so I went a few more times." ”
