Chapter 43: Together

Miss Wu Er nodded and smiled very heartily: "She's quite hospitable." When we were young, we came with my family, and she would often lead us to play, make delicious sour plum soup for us to drink in the summer, and play with us to throw sandbags. ”

Wang Xi stood in the stairwell for a moment.

Chang Ke also said that Chen Jue is good.

But Chen Jue hates Chen Luo, and it has reached the point where one thing in front of him and one thing behind him is about character.

Half-sibling, what could make her hate Chen Luo like this?

She couldn't help but ask: "Now that Miss Chen is out of the cabinet, is the relationship with Second Prince Chen very tense?" ”

Maybe it's not a secret that the Chen siblings are not at odds in the capital, Miss Wu Er raised her eyebrows, and in addition to looking a little surprised, she didn't ask Wang Xi how she knew about it: "That was when I was a child." Now that Sister Jue is married, it will be boring to mess with her mother's brother again. ”

That's what makes sense.

Otherwise, she would have doubted the character of Miss Wu Er and the others.

Wang Xi was curious: "What kind of family did she marry?" ”

At this time, they had already climbed to the second floor, and the three of them stood still in a small attic, Miss Wu Er glanced at Wang Xi carefully, and did not answer her words, but asked, "Do you believe what I say?" ”

Wang Xi looked at the scene in front of him.

No wonder Miss Wu Er said it was a good place.

This attic is blocked by an old locust tree with a canopy like an umbrella, and it is quite difficult to find that there are people on it without looking closely.

She opened the latticework of the attic.

The midday sun poured in, and the big stage opposite could be seen clearly.

She lazily reached out and pulled a leaf outside the window, and said with a smile: "When I was a child, I was not sensible, and I didn't know how to control my temper, so it was common to make trouble." If you grow up, especially the girl's family, when you leave the cabinet and have your own husband and children, you don't know that you feel sorry for your parents and brothers, or there is enmity between them, or this girl has a flawed character, but you and Cousin Ke both say that she is good. I am sisters to you, and of course I believe in you more. ”

"Hah!" Miss Wu Er was very surprised, she smiled, "I didn't expect you to be quite interesting, you can actually say the same thing as my grandmother." However, the matter between Sister Jue and Second Brother Luo is quite complicated, and it is difficult for us outsiders to say anything. ”

Listening to that tone, although the relationship with the three sisters and brothers of the Chen family is good, it has not yet reached the point of being like sisters.

I don't know why, Wang Xi inexplicably felt relieved.

Miss Wu Er walked over and pushed a few other window lattices.

Chang Ke also helped.

"Sister Jue married into the Ding family." Miss Wu Er replied to Wang Xi's words just now, "Brother-in-law Ding is the eldest son in the family, they are hereditary commanders, although the family is average, Brother-in-law Ding is of good character and dignified appearance, it is Chen Shibo who chose and selected the relatives, and Sister Jue is doing well." ”

did not let the daughter go to the marriage.

Wang Xi was stunned and felt that this Chen Yu was quite interesting.

Miss Wu Er was already lying on the lattice next to her, took a deep breath, and said to them, "Let's listen to the play here and then go down." ”

Chang Ke naturally thinks it's good.

Wang Xi said: "Let's let the little maid move a few stools up!" I don't think I could stand all afternoon. ”

Miss Wu Er laughed and said, "What about the two little maids beside you?" I saw that they were very sensitive to their hands and feet, and asked them to help my maid move the stool - Ah Man next to me was not very good at talking, especially on such occasions, she could not cope with it. ”

Her personal maid is fifteen or sixteen years old, white and clean, slightly fat, with a shy expression, and she looks honest and obedient.

But there are so many honest people, sometimes it may not be suitable to be a personal maid!

But a family has a family style, maybe the maids of the Qingping Marquis Mansion don't want you to be shrewd and capable, so they want you to be obedient and willing to do it?

Wang Xi smiled: "I sent something to them." I'll let my other maid, Baiguo, join her! ”

Baiguo was cultivated according to the housekeeper of the inner courtyard, and his communication skills are very assertive.

Miss Wu Er nodded disappreciatively.

Chang Ke took dried fruits out of her mother's purse and gave them them to eat.

The stool has not yet come, the gongs and drums on the stage have already begun, and the opening of the Lianzhu Fang is a burlesque, ready to stir up the atmosphere first.

Miss Wu Er pinched the pecans with one hand and said with a smile: "The class master of Lianzhufang will definitely be angry to death, and he will open the singing of the pear blossom class." ”

Wang Xi looked at the pecan "click", the core is the core, the meat is the meat, Miss Wu Er is not weak, and she can also see that both red silk and green silk have martial arts.

Miss Wu Er gave them walnuts to eat.

The two thanked each other.

The maid named Ah Man and Bai Guo moved up the bench, and she also said to Miss Wu Er: "Aunt Cui asked me if I wanted someone to help, and I said no." ”

Who is Cuigu?

Wang Xi looked at Miss Wu Er.

Miss Wu Er hurriedly explained: "It's a female official in the mansion of the eldest princess of Baoqing. ”

All right! It seems that the maids of the Qingping Marquis Mansion and the eldest princess of Baoqing are really good, and the female officials around the eldest princess even know the maids around Miss Wu Er.

Chang Ke glanced at Wang Xi.

Wang Xi didn't understand what she meant.

Miss Wu Er had invited them to sit down.

Baiguo is worthy of being the person who will manage the inner courtyard for Wang Xi in the future, she turned around and went down and brought refreshments and melon and fruit candy to eat: "Aunt Cui gave it, and she also made a special trip to help us boil hot water below." ”

Miss Wu Er's eyes were different when she looked at Bai Guo, and she praised Wang Xi: "The maids around you are very good!" ”

I don't know if it's just to praise Baiguo for doing things, or to praise the green silk and red silk together.

Wang Xi is used to pretending to be stupid, and simply asks Bai Guo to thank Miss Wu Er.

Bai Guo refilled a cup of tea for Miss Wu Er.

Lu Ling and a grandmother who was about thirty years old climbed up panting, and before they could stand still, they had already said in their mouths: "Oh, I'm late, Mingjing pulled me to talk, and I couldn't walk away for a while." ”

Chang Ke told Wang Xi: "Mingjing is the sixth lady of Qingyun Houfu. ”

Wang Xi's head was bowed.

The grandmother beside Lu Ling saluted them and went downstairs.

Miss Wu Er said: "It's not that I don't want to make an appointment with Mingjing, but there are a bunch of people staring at her wherever she goes, we just wanted to watch a play quietly, and with her, it will definitely not work." Maybe it will attract Fuyang. ”

Wang Xi looked left and right and said, "Where are the ladies and sisters watching the play?" ”

Miss Wu Er pursed her lips and smiled, pointing to the lower left of the attic: "It's a hug below." ”

It's not far away, but it's blocked by the ridge of the roof, so it's impossible to see.

Wang Xi was a little disappointed.

Lu Ling comforted her and said: "Concubine Shuniang looks not as young as the eldest princess of Baoqing, if you really see it, you will definitely be disappointed." ”

Wang Xi laughed and thought Lu Ling was very cute: "If you say that you are young, I'm afraid there are few people who can compare to the eldest princess of Baoqing, right?" ”

Everyone laughed when they heard this, and Lu Ling even talked about which one in Beijing had the best rouge gouache.

As a result, Chang Ke doesn't go out much, Miss Wu Er is the elder in the family who can use whatever she wants, and only Wang Xi can catch her words among the three people.

Lu Ling couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and pulled Miss Wu Er: "Next time I ask you to go shopping, you are not allowed to shirk again!" ”

I don't know what happened between them, Miss Wu Er's face changed when she heard this, and she hurriedly pushed Lu Ling to Wang Xi: "Oh, isn't there another one who also likes these things?" You can ask her out next time! ”

Lu Ling raised her eyebrows and said, "Why didn't I think of it?" Sister Wang, let's go out together next time. ”

Wang Xi was happy to have such a playmate, smiled well, remembered the last time he went shopping with Chang Ke, and said: "Then you tell me a few days in advance, maybe we will have a chance to order a table table." ”

A few girls, it's not okay to eat out, but you can take this opportunity to go to the house as a guest, and then call for food in the restaurant.

Of course, the skills of the cooks in each house are certainly not bad, but you can eat a lot, and it is good to change your appetite.

Who knew that Miss Wu Er's eyes lit up when she heard this, and said, "This can be called me, although I don't need to buy those rouge gouaches, I can be a companion with you." “

Lu Ling coquettishly there: "My sister is willing to go out with me when she hears that there is something to eat, and when she hears that she wants to accompany me, she says that she is not free, and I will go and tell Mrs. Tai." ”

Miss Wu Er smiled and said, "The people take food as the sky!" I didn't eat the last chicken bean curd on the table today. I've been looking forward to it for days. The eldest princess's family invited the stove master Sichuan cuisine this time to make it very authentic. ”

Shouldn't the Qingping Marquis family prefer to eat Northwest cuisine?

Wang Xi thought about it and said: "You don't have to feel sorry, their Sichuan cuisine is good, but this chicken bean curd is still inferior, the Fuling mustard they use as a topping should not be made by themselves, or it is not pickled, although it is salty and fragrant but not crisp enough, if you really like to eat this dish, next time you come to my house, I will make it for you." The roast pigeon and chicken bean curd on the table today are my best dishes. ”

The former has a complex process and only needs to tell others to do it; The latter flavor is in the toppings, and she just needs to match the proportions. All are relatively simple dishes.

The other three looked at her quietly, looking disbelieving, and did not speak for a long time.

"What's wrong?" Wang Xi was puzzled, "These are all very simple dishes, in addition to these two dishes, I am also very good at the crab roe lion head in Huaiyang cuisine, but now is not the season to eat crabs, if you think salted egg yolk is acceptable, I will also make this dish for you at that time." ”

"Yes, yes!" Lu Ling's eyes were shining, and she immediately stepped forward and hugged Wang Xi's arm, "I want to eat!" She then frowned again, "But my sister's house is in Shuzhong, and we can't go to your house!" ”

Wang Xi hadn't had a treat for a while, and his hands were a little itchy, so he said generously: "I'm going to move to Liuyin Garden soon, and I'll invite you to dinner then!" ”

"What a housewarming!" Miss Wu Er said with a smile, "I'm going to celebrate." I made plum wine, and I'll take it with me when the time comes. ”

Lu Ling said: "Then I'll bring tea." The eldest princess gave my grandmother a few taels of hairs a few days ago, and it tasted good. ”

Chang Ke smiled: "Then I'll help arrange it and send a few pots of flowers to suit the occasion." ”

It's like having a small party.
