Chapter 99: The Lady in Charge (5)
After all, Lin Qingya is everyone's young lady, although her personality is a little jumpy, but she can't find fault with all aspects of etiquette, after she noticed the gaffe, she immediately sat up straight, sandwiched a piece of beef, and chewed it in small bites.
Originally, Western food is best with knives and forks to be perfect, and it is almost meaningless to use chopsticks, but An Sheng thinks it is better not to be so shocking, the original owner is a boudoir woman who has never been out of the house, has never read, and people who can't even eat enough on weekdays, how can they understand so much?
Moreover, An Sheng has not yet figured out the situation, so in order not to arouse suspicion, it is not good to casually take out that kind of object that everyone has never seen before.
Ansheng and Lin Qingya's meals are very pleasing to the eye, unlike Lin Qingya, Ansheng's dining etiquette has been cultivated for a long time, quite a royal etiquette style, and the enthusiasm for food is not so high, after all, as long as a person lives long enough, he has seen everything.
And Lin Qingya is the kind of woman who has been strictly educated since childhood, maybe because the food is too delicious, so she is not calm at this time, and she is instinctively interested in delicious food, she looked at An Sheng several times, and then endured it vigorously.
An Sheng knew what Lin Qingya's situation was at a glance, after all, the ancient socialite's daughter didn't say anything, plus this fried veal steak was a dish that Lin Qingya had never eaten, because the taste was really good, so it was reasonable to ask An Sheng if he had any questions.
Lin Qingya is really uncomfortable now, just after a while, she is succumbed to Ansheng's charm, in fact, because she has been favored since she was a child, she is doted on by her mother, and she is not very well-behaved in informal situations, such as not talking at the dinner table, she will never be able to do it.
But she saw that An Sheng ate very seriously, and he ate so beautifully, plus she always had an indescribable feeling, that is, when facing An Sheng, she wanted to follow her wishes for some reason, so she really didn't dare to interrupt An Sheng's meal.
Because the amount of meat in this steak is very small, so the two of them finished eating it after a while, Lin Qingya saw that An Sheng finished eating, and she also ate it herself, anyway, now she has to learn from the fifth sister, whatever the fifth sister does, she will do!
Then Lin Qingya saw An Sheng put down the chopsticks, so she thought about interjecting and asking, why was the dish so delicious just now, what was the name, etc., but before she could ask, Wang Da served today's main dishes: vegetarian chicken, fried mutton with green onions and white, clam chicken in the pot, boiling fish, Shanghai-style tofu and fried leeks with silver sprouts.
As soon as the dishes were served, Lin Qingya stared at Shanghai-style tofu and boiling fish, these two dishes are also recipes provided by Ansheng, which are not available in this era.
The recipes provided by Zhi Brain at noon every day are generally one soup with two meat and one vegetable, and the original owner's stomach must be slowly raised, so under the premise of sufficient nutrition, Ansheng does not want to waste too much, three dishes and one soup are enough to eat, Xu is Lin Qingya here today, Wang Dabian has increased Ansheng's dishes at noon yesterday.
Because this meal is an experience that Lin Qingya has not had in her life, and the taste of the meal is so good, this meal is a pleasure for both guests and hosts.
Lin Qingya couldn't hold on, she kept touching her stomach, she had no manners, after this meal, Lin Qingya became more familiar with An Sheng, and her behavior was more open.
Lin Qingya said with satisfaction: "Fifth sister, there are several kinds of food here that I have never seen, and although I have eaten the green onion and white fried mutton before, the taste just now is very different from what I ate before, but it is also too delicious!" Fifth sister, you will have to bring me to eat often in the future. ”
An Sheng took a sip of tea and said indifferently: "Yes." ”
After the meal, An Sheng was not in a hurry to go back to the small courtyard, she estimated that she might be able to see the housewife of the Lin Mansion in the afternoon, and Hongxing would definitely say her grievances today, adding fuel and vinegar, maybe she would go back by herself and there would be a burst of chickens and dogs jumping.
Lin Qingya pestered An Sheng for a while, and the two parted ways, waiting for An Sheng to walk back to the original owner's courtyard slowly and leisurely.
Roar! Sure enough!
Ouyang Yan'er's most powerful housekeeper, Dong Lin's mother-in-law, with a group of tall and tall families, was stationed at the door, probably because he was afraid that An Sheng would resist, after all, the people in the Lin Mansion said that the fifth lady had martial arts, so this meant that she wanted to tie herself up and take her to see Ouyang Yan'er?
The original owner's memory remembers this Dong Lin clan, and there is no way not to remember it, this person can be said to be Ouyang Yan'er's right-hand man, and he has to be very reused, basically all the things that Ouyang Yan'er does are lacking in morality, then Dong Lin's clan is involved!
In the years when the original owner was kept in the main courtyard, every time the original owner's father came to the main courtyard, the original owner wanted to secretly take a look from afar, but it was all stopped by this old witch, without exception.
That Dong Lin's real name is Lin Chunlan, she is Ouyang Yan'er's nurse, the relationship is like a mother and daughter, and the Lin family who came with Ouyang Yan'er later remarried Dong Cheng, the manager of the outer courtyard of the Lin Mansion, which is the origin of the current name Dong Lin's.
Generally, people call her Mother Dong, and other masters of the Lin Mansion call her Dong Lin's family, but some of them want to slap her, or their own age and status in the mansion are not enough, the concubines of the original owner's father and the concubines who have no support, as well as some relatives who suck the blood of the Lin Mansion, usually also call Mother Dong.
is regarded as the first person in the Lin Mansion to be a fox and a fake tiger, after all, Dong Lin is the old man next to Ouyang Yan'er, the housewife grew up drinking her milk, and she is a little majestic, and Ouyang Yan'er's reliance is Lin Rinzhi, but if Lin Rin's official position is not down, then Ouyang Yan'er is definitely still the head of the Lin Mansion!
The original owner is disgusted, disgusted, and even afraid of this person, and Dong Lin can be said to be the core figure of the original owner's childhood shadow.
Dong Lin's is definitely the most feared person of the original owner, there is no one, An Sheng felt the strange feeling left in his body, and Dong Lin's was far away, both sides looked directly at each other, and no one would look away.
As soon as An Sheng saw Dong Lin's figure, he subconsciously remembered a lot of unpleasant things, these are all the physiological reactions of the original owner, it seems that the original owner's wish is indeed so connected with the people in power in the Lin Mansion!
An Sheng is not the original owner, even if he can feel strange emotions, but it is definitely not enough to affect her, so An Sheng smiled brightly when the two looked at each other and the atmosphere was the most anxious.
Under the noon sun, by the lakeside, a green-clothed girl standing straight, with her head up and her chest straight, her steps fluttering, like the dew on the leaves of the bamboo forest in the early morning, giving people a sense of coolness in the crystal clear, and a glance can soothe the hot soul in the hot summer.
An Sheng fiddled with the bracelet on his left wrist with his right hand, and moved briskly to Dong Lin's side, this Dong Lin's close-up look is really too old, even older than the original owner's memory, but his eyes are still as mean and vicious as ever.
An Sheng doesn't want to be tough, there is really no need to be quick in his face and tongue, in ancient times, he still had to hold his tail and act badly, that is called smart.
An Sheng cleared his throat, the original owner's voice was actually very good, but he used to have low self-esteem and didn't like to talk, and he didn't dare to say much, so he was a little dumb.
Now that he has been fed back a lot by An Sheng's daily glass of honey water, An Sheng still has that smiling look, and said in a brisk tone: "Mother Dong has really not seen you for a long time, seeing your tough body, An Sheng is relieved, Mother Dong came today, but Mrs. Dong has something to say to An Sheng?" ”
Dong Lin is also an old man, looking at An Sheng's smiling little appearance, it is not easy to have a seizure, after all, he doesn't stretch out his hand to hit the smiling person, but judging from the embarrassed appearance of the red apricot before, a little bit is really left aside for the time being, I am afraid that this little girl in front of me has really harbored evil intentions for a long time, but she is quite a little careful.
Dong Lin summed up a little in his heart, and said in an old and majestic tone: "Fifth Miss is really getting more and more promising, the old slave can't afford Miss Five's mother Dong, the old slave was ordered by Mrs. to take Miss Five to meet Mrs., now that half an hour has passed, Miss Fifth should go to the main courtyard with the old slave as soon as possible, don't let Mrs. wait for a long time." ”
An Sheng just lowered his head slightly, his face was happy, and he said in his heart What did she say before, Hongxing went back and designated to add oil and vinegar to 'sue', this Mrs. Lin is really comfortable, and she wants to solve it immediately when there is something unsatisfactory, which is really unbearable.
So, An Sheng obediently followed Dong Lin to the residence of Ouyang Yan'er, the main courtyard of the Lin Mansion.
Not to mention that this forest mansion is really big, it is luxurious everywhere and reveals elegance, and a mountain, a river and a garden are full of money.
Although the place where Ouyang Yan'er lives is the main courtyard, the location is actually slightly close to the east, which was originally the center of the entire Lin Mansion, but the Lin Mansion has been constantly expanding, so she changed the location, but except for Lin Feng's courtyard, she can be regarded as the most advantageous geographical location in the entire Lin Mansion.
When I arrived at this main courtyard, the memory of the original owner really came to my heart like a spring, Dong Lin's family entered the inner room to report, leaving Ansheng alone and a young girl in the outer hall, staring at the little girl, the little girl was thin and small, less than 10 years old, a little clever, and the appearance was not bad.
An Sheng stood and waited for a minute, and when he saw that no one came out, he picked a stool at random and sat down, the little girl saw this, her little face was swollen, and she obviously looked angry and didn't dare to say it, An Sheng pinched the jade cup on the table, and played with it calmly, with a cynical smile on her face.
An Sheng used his brain to probe the inner room, and found that Ouyang Yan'er was taking off her coat and planning to take a nap, and next to her was Dong Lin's muttering something, so this is what she wants to hang An Sheng and let her reflect on herself?
Ansheng: Get off the horse?
An Sheng looked at the surrounding environment again, not to mention that it was really familiar, this outer hall was changed because of the ornaments, but if you look carefully, it is really the place where the original owner was often punished when he was a child, and now An Sheng is here to revisit the original owner!
Although An Sheng said that she didn't want to be tough with the people in power in the Lin Mansion, or that she acted too flamboyant and high-profile, but if she was bullied now, then she would definitely not be able to bear it, who is not a willful little baby?
So, An Sheng put down the jade cup, got up and patted the placket of his clothes, put his hands behind his back, and said to the little maid: "Since Madame has something to delay, you will tell Madame on my behalf, Ansheng will go back first, and I will come to see Madame when I have time." ”
After An Sheng finished speaking, he left, without hesitation, the little maid was obviously panicked, she knew what her wife meant, she just wanted An Sheng to think about it, reflect on it, and wait for the place where An Sheng stood from a small punishment, which can be regarded as exerting psychological pressure, and after that, Ouyang Yan'er appeared again, had a good interview with An Sheng, and warned her to be honest in the future, don't think about something that she doesn't have!
The process is such a process, but now An Sheng does not play cards according to the routine at all, and the little girl is now panicking, she is not chasing An Sheng, nor is she entering the inner room to tell her, hesitating back and forth in the same place.
