Rouge (top)

"Going to school?" An Cheng looked at An Shu, An Shu didn't know how many words she had said in her ear in the past few days, but it was the first time she mentioned going to school, and she thought that An Shu's daily life was like this to play around.

"Yes......" An Shu put down the remaining half bowl of rose dew and went to get the custard on the table, "You don't know, that gentleman is very strict, if I hadn't discussed it with him, I would have said that you have grown so big, I haven't seen it at all, where is he willing to give me a few days off?" ”

"I'll go to my grandfather's house tomorrow, I won't have any leave, and I won't be able to accompany my sister......" An Shu said, and she didn't have an appetite for the milk cake and put it aside.

"Then am I going to school too?" An Cheng asked Shen when he said this.

Shen smiled, "This is natural, the daughter of the An family is not proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and songs, then there must be one or two things that can be mastered, like your sixth sister, what she learns is calligraphy, and when you reach the age of five, you also go to school, and you have to choose one or two who learn by heart, and the others are just a door." ”

An Cheng said with a bitter face, from ancient times to the present, it is a common problem not to like school, "How long do you have to study?" ”

"By the age of thirteen, you don't have to learn." Shen said it very lightly.

The old lady was afraid that Shen and An Shu would start to be timid when they said that An Cheng had not yet gone to school, so she smiled and coaxed her, "Sister Cheng, don't be afraid, that school is also fun, you ask your sixth sister." There are a lot of little girls there, and when they meet and laugh at school, they are no worse than at home! ”

An Shu said, "That's right, sister, originally Cousin Hu and Cousin Mu were also going to come to see you, but there was something at home, so I stumbled, and asked the fifth sister to bring you a gift, and the fifth sister sent it last night, and told me to forget it in Minghui Courtyard......"

An Shu said that she wanted someone to pick it up, but was stopped by Shen, "Seeing that you are going to eat, you can play again after eating." ”

"But so." Shen reminded the old lady, "You two sisters are almost warm, let's go, let's eat!" I ordered the kitchen to make you a lot of food. ”

An Qi was also having lunch with An Bin An Run An Chi, "Fifth sister, you just came back from school, it's cold outside, do you know if you eat after drinking hot soup?" ”

An Chi responded with a smile, "My sister knows." ”

Most of the medicinal food on the table was prepared for Anbin Anrun, and only a few ordinary dishes were for Anqi Anchi to eat, this smell has been smelling for a long time, and the two of them are used to it.

The four brothers and sisters had eaten, and when they were having tea, Red Sleeves came over and leaned into An Qi's ear, "The old lady called the second wife early in the morning, and said that the second wife even ate in Ruixuan Hall. ”

A smile appeared on the corner of An Qi's mouth, and she withdrew it again, "Got it." ”

An Chi looked at it and stood up with interest, "My sister still has homework, so I'll go back first." ”

An Qi nodded, smiled and told her, "Sister go slowly." ”

The old lady took An Cheng Anshu's hand and brought it to the dining room, "Today, I specially asked the kitchen to make Sister Shu's favorite eight-treasure duck, glutinous rice pork ribs, and fried quail. ”

While speaking, he took An Shu An Cheng to sit down, and Shen sat at the head of the old lady, with a table of dishes, taking care of everyone's tastes.

The old lady pointed to a bowl of osmanthus red dates and wolfberry soup, "They have eaten early in the big room, and they have probably eaten it all this time, so Jade sent this to them, and simmered it on the stove to make snacks after noon." ”

Then he pointed to a plate of sugar-soaked winter bamboo shoots and a bowl of ham stewed elbows, "Send this bamboo shoot to Sister Mei'er's child, it's sweet, she can like it too." Then give that elbow to Brother Zhou'er and Brother Hao'er to eat. ”

looked at Shen again, "I don't know what Brother Chun'er's child likes to eat, and I didn't see it in the morning, you are his mother, you can choose a dish for him and send it." ”

Shen Shi responded, looked at it, pointed to a dish of steamed lotus with milk, and said with a smile, "This is easy to restrain and nourish, suitable for Brother Chun." ”

After taking care of it, Ruixuan Tang had an meal, and after eating, she rinsed her mouth, and the old lady looked at Shen, "I know that you are busy, I have been with my wife all morning, you go back to do your business, you are also restrained by the children here." ”

Shen knew that the old lady wanted to talk to An Cheng An Shu, so she got up and smiled, "That daughter-in-law is lazy." ”

The Shen family left, and the old lady didn't call An Cheng An Shu in the main hall, and the three of them entered the warm pavilion, "It's warm here, if you feel hot, take off that big hairy clothes." ”

The old lady took out some nine-linked flower ropes again, "You, it's interesting for me to watch from the side, and I don't have anything to tell you, but I'm afraid that you children will sleep if you are greedy, and you will eat food." ”

An Shu was impatient to play nine rings, and she didn't touch it, and in a blink of an eye, she saw the red plum blossoms in the old lady's house and had an idea, "Grandmother, is the set of things I made rouge here last time still there?" I can't play these nine chains, but I'm angry. ”

"It's better to make some plum blossom rouge and bring it to Pingyue's house next time." and instigated An Cheng, "Have you ever done rouge yourself?" The red plum is made of rouge, which is fragrant and beautiful, but it is not smeared on the face, but taken back and smoked in the smoker, and the whole house smells good! ”

An Cheng was also moved by what An Shu said, "Okay, my sister and I will make rouge." ”

The maid next to her had already found out the things, a small red sour branch wooden box, carved with flowers, the maid smiled, "Last time the six girls finished playing, the old lady called to put it away, and the slave maid specially found this box to come out, and the girl saw that it was not the right time?" ”

An Shu couldn't stop nodding, "Well, good Sister Liuli, you are so clever!" When the rouge is made, I'll give you a box first. ”

Liuli smiled vividly, "That slave is waiting here, and she won't go anywhere." ”

The old lady pointed to Liuli and scolded with a smile, "Look at your girl's appearance, as if she hasn't used rouge!" ”

Liuli is also the old lady's intimate person, in order to coax her to be happy, deliberately said, "The slave maid has a Qiao Zonger in her heart, and the slave maid knows that the old lady is reluctant to kiss the things made by her baby granddaughter, and she did not leave it but gave it away, so she must give up ten times and eight times the silver to buy it back, so that she can play with her granddaughter." ”

"When the girl is done, the slave maid has the rouge in her hand, just waiting for the old lady to come and scatter the money!"

The old lady who said Liuli couldn't stop laughing and pushed An Shu, "Lady, tear this girl's mouth for grandmother!" It's just that one time, so bold, you just arrange me like this! ”

An Shu laughed and messed with Liuli, while explaining to An Cheng, "When I made rouge for the first time, I made a lot of it and took it back to the yard, when my mother had just left, I was about the same age as you, and I was not sensible...... A few little girls coaxed me, and they all took it and divided it! ”

"Grandmother knows that she feels sorry for me, but it's not good to ask those little maids to take out the things rewarded by the master again, it's like we are stingy, so we simply bought it back with silver."

"It's been all this for so many years...... Sister Liuli is clever, and she still remembers to take it out! ”

Liuli and An Shu quarreled for a while before parting, An Shu was sweating, and the old lady personally took a handkerchief to wipe An Shu's sweat, "Good boy, when you have played enough, you can cover your head tightly when you go back, don't be blown by the wind!" ”
