119. The major events of the Protector's Mansion
Meng Wei happily accepted the money, and secretly looked forward to the dividends of Xiangyunlou in her heart.
Maybe it's because of the expectation and the motivation that time no longer seems so long.
Time passed in a hurry and it was the beginning of September, but before Meng Wei could get the silver, there was a major incident in the Protector's Mansion, which made many people in the mansion sad.
Meng Wei waited for Ye Zichuan to have breakfast, and on the way back to the kitchen, she saw the housekeeper frowning deeply, she looked at it with some confusion for a while and then entered the kitchen, and saw Aunt Lin sighing in the kitchen.
"Aunt Lin, why is the housekeeper here? Why do you look so sad? ”
Obviously, when she had breakfast with them in the morning, they were still very excited to discuss what to do at noon and what to do at night, but they didn't expect to be depressed for a while.
Aunt Lin waved her hand weakly, with a sad face: "Don't mention it, just now the housekeeper said that there are not many ice cubes in the house, and it seems that the milk tea juice and some cold products we made before can't be made." ”
"Can't you buy it if you don't have it?"
She knew that some merchants in ancient times would hoard ice cubes in winter, build an ice cellar, and keep it for the summer to sell to those dignitaries, so that it could be sold for a lot of money as soon as it changed hands.
Therefore, Meng Wei naturally felt that if the ice cubes were gone, she would buy them again, and the Protector Mansion would not look like a family short of money.
However, this time Aunt Lin was not very happy, and the others couldn't help sighing: "The problem is here, the housekeeper said that the ice cubes bought this year are three points more than in previous years, and this year is hotter than in previous years, many people have also bought a lot, this morning the housekeeper asked people to buy, but I didn't expect the ice cubes to be sold out." ”
"Aren't the masters going to run out of ice cubes too?"
"But it's not, the housekeeper said that he thought he could buy it, who knew that the current ice cubes can only be used by the master for about five days, this is still on the basis of what we don't use to make food, if we want to use it for food, I'm afraid it's only enough for three days."
What's more uncomfortable than not being able to eat ice in the summer?
What's more, they not only need to be chilled to make drinks, but also some ingredients need to be frozen, as well as desserts and the like, and now that ice cubes are not allowed in the kitchen, Meng Wei feels as if it is the end of the world.
Of course, Meng Wei, who calmed down, remembered the small snacks and silver taels she had made over the years, and she had also enjoyed a lot for the people in the kitchen, thinking that this was the reason why the ice cubes were used up faster than before.
Although many people have benefited from eating because of those foods, if the ice cubes are not enough, presumably Mrs. Hou will blame the housekeeper at that time, so isn't this paying for her behavior?
Thinking of this, Meng Wei felt a little guilty in her heart.
No, the housekeeper must not be held accountable for her inconsiderate thinking.
"If you can't use ice, you can't, anyway, it's September now, and it won't be so hot in October, so let's bear with it for the time being."
said so, but Meng Wei did not go back to the house, nor did she wander around the house, but turned around and went to Ye Zichuan's study.
I have to say that Ye Zichuan's study has all kinds of books, and I don't know if it's to fool people, it seems that she is very talented or prepared by others, since the days of following Ye Zichuan to recognize words, she has timely demonstrated the advantages of her fast learning ability, as long as she reads it with Ye Zichuan, she can remember how to pronounce that word, and even if she writes it, she will recognize it almost.
So in this way, Meng Wei was able to read books by herself about a week ago, of course, if she encountered a word she didn't know, she would write it down and ask Ye Zichuan, but in general, as long as there were not too many rare words, she was mostly able to read it by herself, and no one cared if she couldn't understand it.
When Meng Wei arrived, Ye Zichuan was reading a book in the study, Fang Yuan dutifully guarded the door, and Meng Wei nodded towards Fang Yuan. Seeing Ye Zichuan looking at the book in his hand intently, Meng Wei didn't think about disturbing him, and entered the study lightly, looking for books on the shelves.
She remembered that Ye Zichuan still had two books on porcelain painting, and Meng Wei had even seen books on agriculture and humanities in various places, in short, all kinds of books were mixed, but the most were history books and some art of war, but looking at those books was very new, Meng Wei also felt that it was probably placed there to fill the number.
Last time, she just looked at the title of the book at random, flipped through two pages and made sure she wasn't interested, so she looked for another book to read.
In the past few days since the last time, Meng Wei didn't care much about which bookshelf it was found, and she forgot it for a while, so she couldn't help standing in front of the bookshelf and scanning it with her eyes.
It's just that there are too many books, and Meng Wei was a little dazzled for a while, but she still insisted on scanning her head from top to bottom.
Suddenly, Meng Wei's eyes lit up: I found it!
It's a pity that she is limited in height, and she has to stand on tiptoe to barely touch it.
Meng Wei tried for a while, and her fingertips touched it slightly, but because the gap between the books was too small, she couldn't catch the corner of the book and pull out the book for a while, so she couldn't help but slow down her breathing and rest a little discouraged.
Turning his head to look at the person behind him, Fang Yuan was standing outside the door with his back to his body, with a long sword pinned to his waist, while Ye Zichuan was looking at the book with his back to her.
It seems that when she came in just now, the little Hou Ye had been reading the book, and I don't know if she didn't pay attention or for other reasons, she didn't hear the rustle of the little Hou Ye turning the pages in the past, Meng Wei couldn't help bending down slightly, wanting to see if the little Hou Ye was using his leisure time to look at some irrelevant albums in his 'above board'.
Who knew that she bent down, and the person who was sitting upright suddenly leaned back, and the shoulder blades as hard as steel hit Meng Wei's face.
"Ah, it hurts, it hurts!"
Covering his nose that was knocked, he felt that his nose was sore, and he couldn't help blurring his eyes.
In fact, as early as Meng Wei entered the study, Ye Zichuan knew her every move, so when he noticed Meng Wei's approach behind him, he instantly leaned back to sit upright, wanting to tease Meng Wei.
But now, the imaginary kitten-like teeth and claws are gone, but he directly covers his nose, and tears flow out of his eyes with just one glance, which suddenly made Ye Zichuan's face stiffen, and he said in a panic: "Why are you still crying?" I just touched you, you should be fine, right? ”
Meng Weizheng's nose was sore, and when she heard this, she was angry in her heart, and glared at Ye Zichuan directly, and even her voice unconsciously aggrieved: "The slave didn't expect the little marquis to protect the country and look thin, but the back is as hard as a wall, just touch it, then if you use a little more force, won't the slave and maid be in tears and blood?"
