Chapter 70: Sour
After Qingniang's rhetorical question, Miaomiao was also a little unsure.
"But when the time comes, I'll ask and talk about it, I'm going to send her the stars I said before."
"Okay, but when the time comes, my mother will accompany you, in case you really sell so much silver, your little girl's house is too dangerous." Qing Niang thought it would be okay to ask, but she suggested with some trepidation.
"Well, I'll go up the mountain and dig up the stars in a while, and we'll go to that young lady tomorrow." Miao Miao nodded, and she guessed why Qingniang wanted to accompany her to the town.
Qingniang's worries are actually not unreasonable, didn't Miaomiao encounter them last time? Although she was not afraid of her own strength, she still agreed in order not to worry Qingniang.
"Mother will also accompany you, mother can also help you fight. It's also a lot to bring some starry sky to that young lady, and it's not a rare thing. "I'm afraid that Miaomiao will enter the mountain, and there will be any danger, Qingniang proposed again.
It was okay a while ago, but at this time, just like Miaomiao said before, the snake still has a lot of poison coming out. Miaomiao went by herself, Qingniang was really not at ease.
In the eyes of Qing Niang, Miao Miao is a very weak little girl, no matter what she does, Qing Niang is very worried.
It seems to be treated as a porcelain doll, Miaomiao is a little helpless and a little moved. The young lady has a motherly heart, and she doesn't want to let her down and worry too much about herself. Besides, everyone in the town agreed before, and it wasn't bad for this, so he nodded and agreed that Qingniang would accompany him to the mountain.
But it was midday, and the sun was too harsh outside. Qingniang could bear it, but she was worried about her daughter, so she proposed to go back later. In the afternoon, when the sun was less abundant and cooler, the two of them went up the mountain together with their baskets and farm tools.
The mother and daughter worked together and soon dug up the stars that were going to be given to Miss Zhao. The mother and daughter didn't delay much, put the dug stars in the basket and went down the mountain home.
When she got home, Miaomiao wrapped the roots of the stars with a damp cloth before going to the kitchen to cook with Qingniang.
After eating, Qingniang went to the vegetable field to take a look. Because they had to get up early tomorrow to go to town, both mother and daughter went to bed early.
The next morning, Miao Miao sprinkled some more water on the starry sky, and then put them and the double orchids separately and put them in two back baskets.
Qingniang and Miaomiao had breakfast and fed Momo well. The mother and daughter each carried a basket on their backs and went out to wait for the car.
"It's the Gu family, I haven't seen you for a long time, why haven't you gone to the town to sell prey for a while?" has been in the same village for so many years, even if Qingniang doesn't go out much, everyone knows her.
Lao Yutou is in a car, and Qingniang has often gone to the town to sell prey in his car over the years, and the two are also familiar with each other.
In the past, when Gu's father was there, the two of them basically went to every episode. After Gu's father went, although Qingniang sometimes went every other episode because of her lack of ability.
But these days, Qingniang has not gone to the market abnormally, and Lao Yutou is still a little worried about whether something happened.
"You two are carrying this flower? No prey? When the young lady got into the car, they saw the flowers and leaves exposed in the basket behind their mothers and daughters, and the old man was even more surprised.
"Hmm... My daughters and sons saw that I was working hard and told me not to hunt anymore. This flower was planted by my daughter, and I plan to sell it for money. My brother Yuan has also found a job in the town to supplement the family, and there are many of them every month. Speaking of the filial piety of her son and daughter, the young lady is a little proud.
"You are really blessed, your daughters and sons are so filial to you. Since they feel sorry for you, there are other ways to make money, and it's better not to hunt. You worked so hard before and couldn't fight much, and hunting was so dangerous, didn't your family care about..."Speaking of this, Lao Yu realized that he had lost his words and quickly stopped.
"I'm sorry... I didn't cover it up. But it was still late, seeing that Qingniang obviously thought of Gu's father, her expression immediately became a little low, and Lao Yu felt very guilty in her heart, so she quickly apologized.
"It's okay, it's all in a hurry, I know, you didn't mean to. Besides, what you say is the truth, there is nothing that cannot be said. "The daughter and son are very filial, and Gu's father has also been there for some days.
So Qingniang quickly returned to normal, and comforted Lao Yu.
Lao Yu was still a little embarrassed, and there happened to be someone else coming to take the car, so he stopped talking to Qingniang.
Because most of the people want to plant in the spring, there are not many people. They were all not very familiar with Qingniang, and everyone didn't say hello to them much. Qing Niang Miaomiao didn't care, but breathed a sigh of relief.
got out of the car at the entrance of the market, inquired about others again, and the mother and daughter went straight to Rizhao Street.
Rizhao Street is more luxurious than Qingfeng Street, and towering houses are located here. Not only is the house with red walls and green tiles, cornices and corners, but even the roads on this street are paved with blue bricks.
Qing Niang and Miao Miao are both visiting this street for the first time, and it is also the first time to see this ancient version of a mansion.
The two of them didn't know where to look, one looked at the decoration of the eaves, and the other looked at the big lion at the door, looking like they had never seen the world, and everything was very novel.
According to Miss Zhao, the mother and daughter came to the third family in the east. Seeing the black Nanmu plaque hanging at the top of the red vermilion lacquer gate, with the inscription "Zhao Mansion", Miao Miao felt that it should be here, yes.
"Mother, it should be here, let's knock on the door, shall we?" After confirming that there was no second Zhao Mansion nearby, Miao Miao asked Qing Niang
"Is it confirmed? You can't be wrong, right? "The first time I went to this kind of place, Qingniang was very nervous, for fear that Miaomiao would find the wrong place.
"Well, confirmed, that's it." Miao Miao nodded in affirmation.
"Otherwise, you go by yourself, my mother will wait for you outside!" Qing Niang took a few steps back with some hesitation.
"Huh? Why? Miao Miao was a little puzzled, and turned her head to look at the young lady.
"Mother... The mouth is stupid and can't speak, and the reaction is slow, so it's not good if you anger the nobles. "Since the young lady came to this street, she felt that she was under a lot of pressure? Thinking of going into such a big mansion, my heart is even more timid.
Miaomiao persuaded a few more words, but when she saw that Qingniang was really scared, she gave up.
Because Qingniang didn't want to go in, Miaomiao didn't know how long it would take to come out. She asked the young lady to wait for her outside, and by the way, she went to the market.
Qingniang really didn't want to stay on this street longer, so she left without much excuse.
After the young lady left, Miaomiao picked up the iron ring on the door and buckled it gently.
Soon, the door was opened from the inside. A man who looked to be in his early twenties poked his head out.
He saw that a hint of surprise flashed in Miaomiao's eyes, and then he asked a little shyly.
"I wonder who this young lady is?"
"I told your Miss Zhao Si before, and she asked me to come and send flowers." After such a long time, Miao Miao was a little worried that she would not be able to do anything.
"Oh! Oh! I remember, Miss Yue mentioned it. If someone comes to deliver flowers, bring someone to meet her. Fortunately, that Miss Zhao Si had already ordered in advance, and as soon as Miao Miao spoke, the family nodded in a sudden understanding.
"Come in, I'll take you to see Fourth Miss. Am I all flowers? I'll get it for you. Xiao Er helped Miaomiao pick up the back basket on the ground, and pushed open the door to invite her in.
"Thank you, little brother." Miao Miao smiled gratefully.
"You're welcome, that's what I'm supposed to do." Jia Ding was shaken by Miaomiao's smile, and his face turned a little red.
Miao Miao didn't notice the expression of the housekeeper, she concentrated on admiring the scenery in the courtyard.
As soon as you enter the entrance, you will find a winding verandah, and the road under your feet is very ingeniously paved with sleek stones. The courtyard is surrounded by pink walls, and long plantains are planted on both sides. Three hanging flower gatehouses, four sides copy the verandah.
The whole courtyard is magnificent, the garden is splendid, clear and exquisite, graceful and luxurious, and the courtyard wall is full of roses and looks quite elegant.
"It's really beautiful," Miaomiao couldn't help but sigh in her heart, although she had also watched some ancient TV series, but there was no comparison with her own experience. What's more, this arrangement is much more exquisite than in the TV series.
I'm afraid of comparisons in everything, and I didn't think I was living in a bad place now. At most, she didn't think it was convenient, but when she saw this beautiful courtyard, her heart inevitably felt a little sour.
She thought, when will I be able to live in such a good house? I don't know how much it will cost, and I don't know if it will be possible until I wear it back.
"This is it, you wait a minute. I'll help you get the word out. Xiao Er took Miaomiao to a very elegant courtyard, he asked Miaomiao to wait at the door first, and he himself went to help pass the word.
Soon, the family came out with a tall woman wearing a pink jacket, a blue satin vest, and a white silk fold, "Sister Lancai, this is the girl who sent flowers."
"Girl, you follow this Lancai sister in, Miss is waiting for you!"
"There is no one at the door, since the person has brought it, I will leave first." After introducing these two people, the family was about to get up and leave.
Miao Miao looked at the tall woman who was called Sister Lancai, with shaved shoulders and a thin waist, a duck egg face, and a very good-tempered appearance.
Miao Miao recalled, not the last time I saw the face? But it should also be Miss Zhao Si's maid.
"The slave's name is Lancai, and she is a first-class maid next to the young lady. I don't know what to call the girl? While Miao Miao looked at the other party, Lan Cai was also looking at her.
The girl was dressed in an ordinary outfit, simply combed a hanging hair in a bun, and there was no extra decoration in her hair except for a pink headband. But her black hair is like a cloud, and she is very beautiful.
Lancai is a daughter's family. I was a little fascinated by this beauty. However, after all, she has a strong psychological quality, and she quickly recovered her mind and greeted the other party with a smile.
"I... The little woman's surname is Gu, and Sister Lancai is good. ”
