Chapter 60 Zongzi

Wang Xi was afraid of startling the grass and the snake, so Chaoyun ran away.

With the Qingyun Hou Mansion, it's different.

Chaoyun is famous for doing the business of the ladies of rich and noble families, Qingyun Hou Mansion is a first-class rich and noble family in the capital, Bo Mingyue said hello, not to mention Chaoyun, it is Dajue Temple, and she has to open a convenient door.

She thanked Bo Mingyue with a smile and said, "You can see that the tenth day of the fifth month is good." ”

It is after the Dragon Boat Festival, when it is not too busy, everyone is free.

Bo Mingyue was only afraid that Wang Xi would not go, and said, "Then it's decided." I asked Chaoyun to wait for you in the temple early in the morning. ”

Don't go!

He added a sentence in his heart, and he was about to brush his sleeves away.

Wang Xi didn't know when he offended this pampered little boy, but he didn't take it to heart, only called him and talked about his evaluation of their marriage: "...... Originally, I was just a willow posture, and Bo Gongzi looked down on me, but I can understand. But what I don't understand is that in the huge inner courtyard of the Qingyun Marquis Mansion, why did a few words from Bo Gongzi in private be passed on to the Marquis of Xiangyang Mansion so quickly?

"Although there is no follow-up, but this person's heart is separated by the belly, who dares to guarantee that no one will talk about this in the future?

"Bo Gongzi's inner courtyard has to be rectified."

After saying this, Bo Mingyue's face was like a fire.

This was indeed what he said, and he deliberately let it reach the ears of the lady of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion.

But what he didn't expect was that Wang Xi, a woman, didn't play cards according to common sense, and actually blocked him here to question him.

It was as if he had been stripped naked and stood in the sun for anyone to watch.

What a shame!

Bo Mingyue suddenly became a little angry with the people of the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion.

Whatever he says, they preach it?

When the emperor scolded the household secretary in the imperial study and asked those little eunuchs to pass the word, those little eunuchs still had to change their words? Why can't you be flexible when you get to the Xiangyang Hou Mansion?

Didn't the Xiangyang Hou Mansion make their family offend people?

Bo Mingyue subconsciously defended: "That Mrs. Xiangyang Hou is particularly annoying!" There is a person who likes to go to my grandmother's side for everything, as if my sisters are her juniors, not to mention my marriage, even my sixth sister's marriage, she will also interfere. ”

The implication is that he is not targeting Wang Xi, but targeting the Marquis of Xiangyang.

Wang Xi also felt that the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion was quite annoying, even if Bo Mingyue was not satisfied with her, the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion, as an intermediary, should not tell the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion what Bo Mingyue said so bluntly.

She said that, it was a matter of not taking the people of the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion in her eyes, and the most important thing may be that she felt that the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion made her lose face, and she intended to insult the people of the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion.

Wang Xi didn't want to pursue this matter, but when he heard this, he pretended to be anxious and said, "Then the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion won't spread this matter, right?" ”

According to her speculation, the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion will definitely spread the word.

First, it was to shake off the pot - the Qingyun Hou Mansion and the Yongcheng Hou Mansion failed to get married, and it has nothing to do with the Xiangyang Hou Mansion. The second is to continue to step on the Yongcheng Hou Mansion - their girl's family is not very good, you see, their cousin Bo Mingyue can't look down on it.

Now it depends on how many people the Xiangyang Hou Mansion has told about it!

Bo Mingyue has rich experience in house battles, so he immediately thought of it.

His face suddenly became ugly, and he jumped out without thinking: "Miss Wang, I will give you an explanation for this matter!" Rest assured! ”

Wang Xi looked at his anxious back, and his impression of Bo Mingyue was much better.

She turned around and went to Dr. Feng and informed him of the day when Dr. Feng went to Dajue Temple.

On the contrary, Doctor Feng was a little homesick, afraid that Chaoyun was not the senior brother he had been looking for for decades, and afraid that he was, so he was a little hesitant.

Wang Xi persuaded him: "Sticking out your head is a knife, and shrinking your head is also a knife, why don't you break in and see who Chaoyun is?" If not, you'll have to work hard to find it! ”

Dr. Feng is now over sixty years old, even if he wants to find it, I'm afraid that there won't be many years to toss.

It's just that she can't say this, but Dr. Feng can follow her train of thought, and can't help but sigh, and said to Wang Xi: "Then it's decided!" I'm going to talk to Ah Gao and ask him to bring a few people over then. ”

Dr. Feng had no intention of accepting apprentices in his early years, and Feng Gaoneng followed his surname and worshiped under his disciples, which was also fate. Therefore, Dr. Feng is not like other masters, if there is something to say hello, a large group of apprentices will be hula, saving a lot of trouble.

What he can bring is the guy in the shop.

Wang Xi thought about it, felt unsafe, and said, "I will also tell Wang Xi to let him have a snack." ”

The Wang family is a big customer of the mighty dart bureau, and after several generations, the personal relationship is quite good.

The mighty dart bureau also has a branch in the capital, so it's no problem to borrow a few people from them.

Dr. Feng immediately responded.

He can work hard by himself, but he can't put Wang Xi, who respects him like a granddaughter and helps him everywhere, in danger.

Wang Xi returned to the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion satisfied.

Mrs. Tai immediately asked her to call her away, and said hurriedly: "You and Bo Mingyue, can you make your words clear?" ”

"It's clear!" Wang Xi felt that the people of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion were not righteous, so she could fall into the trap and said, "Bo Mingyue said that there may be some misunderstanding in this matter, although he is not very satisfied with the Xiangyang Hou Mansion meddling in his marriage, but he never thought that someone would take his jokes with his grandmother as serious words. Still, others are not bad. Said he would give me an explanation. ”

Mrs. Tai breathed a long sigh of relief, folded her hands and recited the sentence "Amitabha", and said, "It's good that Bo Mingyue can come forward to help clarify this matter." ”

She still has several grandchildren who are not engaged!

As for the Xiangyang Hou Mansion, she didn't doubt it at all.

Wang Xi felt that it was too difficult to wake up a person who didn't pretend to be asleep, and she didn't have the ability to tell others how to behave.

*

I don't know why, this year's Dragon Boat Festival did not organize a dragon boat race in the capital, and the ladies of the Yongcheng Hou Mansion sent each other five poisonous purses and colorful silk threads, and sachets to ward off evil spirits and plagues, and began to wrap zongzi.

At this time, the weather is already hot, all kinds of sweet and salty zongzi will be kept for their own family to eat, and many vegetarian zongzi soaked in alkaline water will be sent to relatives and friends as a festival gift.

Wang Xi's cook showed her skills, what bamboo leaf dumplings, mugwort dumplings, sweet tea dumplings; pillow dumplings, beauty dumplings, dragon boat dumplings, small horn dumplings; Bean paste dumplings, ham dumplings, bacon dumplings, eight-treasure dumplings...... There are only what you can't think of, there is nothing they can't wrap, and a few baskets of zongzi have been wrapped up in a day's work.

Wang Xi was not stingy, and picked up all kinds of zongzi and sent them to various rooms, even 6 Ling and Miss Wu Er, and they also sent some.

Mrs. Tai took chopsticks and sandwiched a small and small vegetarian rice dumpling that was not the size of a wine cup, but the color was like the first snow, fresh and tangy, and asked Wang Xi: "Where is this zongzi?" ”

Wang Xi said with a smile: "This is our Wang family's zongzi, which is wrapped in Jiangmi from Hubei, Zongye from Guangdong, and Zongzi from Jinling. Nothing is added, just dip it in sugar and eat it. I don't like to eat it with sugar, so it's delicious to eat it like that. Even if it is cooled and eaten cold, the fragrance of the dumpling leaves is more abundant, with a unique flavor and is also very delicious.

"So whether this zongzi is delicious or not depends on whether the rice is good or not, and whether the zongzi leaves are good. If you don't believe it, try it. ”

Mrs. Tai likes to eat sweets, so she dipped it in the frosting sugar sent by Wang Xi and tasted it.

The softness of the rice and the fragrance of the zongzi leaves are all wrapped together, and compared with other zongzi, it is more refreshing as if eating a bowl of eight-treasure rice.

"This rice dumpling is delicious!" Mrs. Tai praised and asked Mama Shi to distribute the other vegetarian dumplings brought by Wang Xi to her grandchildren and granddaughters.

Wang Xi smiled: "This is filial piety to you, you can just eat." Mrs. Hou, Mrs. Hou, Mrs. Second, Mrs. III, I sent someone to deliver them. ”

Then he peeled her a four-cornered dumpling with a bright golden color and the size of a fist, and said, "You can taste this again, Jiaxing's sweet tea dumplings." Made with the sweet tea of Wuzhen Mountain, it is also quite delicious. ”

Mrs. Tai looked at the various zongzi piled up high on the plate, and said with a smile: "You kid, these zongzi have taken a lot of work, right?" ”

OK. Their family has a grocery store, and it is more convenient for them to travel from south to north than to other people's homes.

Before Wang Xi's words could be spoken, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Shi Zhu walking in surrounded by several maids, and she immediately changed her words: "It's rare for me to come to the capital for the Dragon Boat Festival, and if there is anything new, I want to show Mrs. Tai too." I've been preparing these ingredients for almost two months. Fortunately, the shop at home is now being delivered. Otherwise, there is no way to do it even if you have money. ”

Mrs. Tai couldn't stop nodding and said, "I've lived for such a long time, and it's the first time I've seen so many kinds of zongzi." ”

Wang Xi immediately obediently answered: "Although the zongzi are good, if you eat too much, you can't restrain them, just choose everything that you think is interesting to taste." I also asked the maid to bring this year's new Huangshan hair tip over, and you eat zongzi to eliminate food. ”

"Good, good, good!" Mrs. Tai smiled so much that the folds on her face were stretched, and she said with emotion, "I was worried that your mother was not doing well, it seems that you didn't prevaricate me, your mother must be doing well this day." ”

"That's it!" Wang Xi immediately fought for his father's face in front of Mrs. Tai, and said, "My father is good to my mother." Everything is close to my mother, even me and my brother have to lean back! ”

Of course, Mrs. Tai did not believe that any man could like his wife more than his children, but she was still very happy to hear this, and laughed hehe.

Shi Zhu sneered.

This Wang Xi, apart from being able to talk to his elders, what else will he do?

She stepped forward to salute Mrs. Tai.

Mrs. Tai hurriedly beckoned her to sit over and asked Mama Shi to untie the zongzi for her: "You taste it!" It's all made by the mother-in-law on the Ah Xi stove, and it's all delicious. ”

Shi Zhu is also well-informed, and at first glance he knows that it is a rare delicacy, and he is obedient and listens to a tail, knowing that this is something that Wang Xi has prepared for two months, and he made a special trip to honor Mrs. Tai, not only is there no burden to eat, but he also feels happy.

After three times and two clicks, she ate four or five different zongzi in a row.

Wang Xi just watched with a smile on his face.

Mrs. Tai said distressedly: "You are careful to eat the accumulated food!" When you want to eat, go back and ask the maid to cook it for you. ”

Shi Zhu didn't care either.

When I went back in the evening, I found out that Wang Xi's zongzi was sent according to the head of the house, Miss Pan naturally had Mrs. Hou to care about, Chang Ke ate the zongzi in the second room, only her, although she lived in the same courtyard with Mrs. Tai, but it did not belong to any house, naturally not.
