Xiaobai recognized it at a glance as the maidservant girl she had given hawthorn wine to their wife that day.

"Little white girl, I haven't seen you for a long time." She said hello, looked around, and found that there was a girl about the same age as her cleaning up the table, the identity should be the same as her, but I don't know which lady came.

"Sister Xiliang? What are you doing here? Xiaobai blushed a little shyly, this maid gave her a very good feeling. More temperamental than all the ladies in Huicheng.

"There's a happy event." It's still the same hibiscus dress, but this time her smile is more hearty.

"Say it quickly!"

Xiliang was not polite, and said bluntly to this little white girl who was familiar at first sight: "The kind of wine you gave me last time, I don't know if the little white girl is here, if there is, let it be given to us, okay?" ”

"That hawthorn wine? No problem, I've done a lot, there's nothing to let go, and it's also my blessing to be favored by your wife. By the way, I don't know how your wife is doing? Is it better? ”

"Well, it's not because we're in a hurry that our lady is unwell, but also thanks to your wine. It's very appetizing, let's not drink it now, our wife can't eat yet. ”

"Sister, you can let me go to the cellar to get it."

The people brought by Xiliang were already waiting at the door, and they all entered the house when they heard her orders, Xiaobai didn't know the origin of these people, but Cherry recognized it, this was the person of the merchant lady, although Cai Lingguo only opened a shop in Huicheng, but the business was all over the world, and a few of the girls who followed the owner of the hall had already memorized the big names by heart.

"Sister Xiliang, come with me." Xiaobai took these ten people to the cellar, and after a while, ten jars of hawthorn wine were moved from the cellar to the carriage, each jar was fifty catties, and it was brewed with the strongest wind and moon of the Xia family.

"Your cellar has been an eye-opener for me." Xiliang looked at Xiaobai in disbelief, he really couldn't connect all this to such a thin girl. "Then I'll go, this is the wine money." She put a purse in Xiaobai's hand, flexibly jumped into the carriage, waved at Xiaobai, and beckoned the convoy to leave.

Xiaobai didn't even look at how much money was in the purse and received it in his arms. She didn't care about any of that.

After sending Kira away, she hurried to apologize to Cherry. Then he hurriedly ran to the kitchen, brought down the casserole from the small stove, put a plate of shrimp siu mai, and took out a bunch of cold purple grapes from the cold storage.

"Sister Cherry, I'm sorry, you can send it to the owner, and later you call Sister Ah Yin and Sister Peach to come down for dinner, and I'll cut some fruit to eat." She wanted to turn her head to talk to Ruan Yuanluo, only to find that she didn't know when she was gone.

There are purple grapes this season? Also preserved so fresh and cool. Their grapes are only growing leaves, and there is no way to preserve them so well. The little white girl's surprise to Cherry is beyond what she would know about an innkeeper.

Cherry looked at the ordinary Xiaobai in front of him carefully, and said with a smile: "You really have the ability, our owner will never eat three chopsticks for the same dish, the stewed crucian carp you made last time, I was stunned to eat half a plate, if I have time, I must ask you for advice." ”

Xiaobai's brain turned fast, but she still swallowed her words back and said: "My craftsmanship is so rough, maybe the owner of the pavilion felt fresh and ate a few more bites, Sister Cherry don't laugh at me." ”

Cherry didn't say a word, turned around and went upstairs, and Ruan Yuluo went back to the room long before Cherry came down, heard a movement next door, got up and went to Chu Cailing. The cherry had already set the breakfast, and as soon as the lid of the small casserole was opened, even Chu Cailing, who was not very interested, looked at it and said with admiration: "It's so fragrant, what is this?" ”

"Pavilion owner, this is the lotus root pork rib soup that the little white girl stewed all night." Cherry put a small bowl painted with celadon in front of her, saw Ruan Qiluo come in, and shouted, "Miss Yuanluo." ”

"Give the girl a bowl too, and come and sit down."

"Aunt Chu." After Ruan Yuluo saluted, she sat down and saw the plate of purple grapes at a glance. "Where did this come from?"

"I also think it's rare, at this time, how can there be this?" Chu Cailing took a small sip of the soup and felt that the soup was sweet and delicious, fresh and refreshing, without any greasy and heavy. It's comparable to those first-class restaurants in Western Vietnam.

"It was brought by the little white girl, and the slave thought that she had some unique secret recipes that could be preserved. He didn't ask. ”

"Hmm." Chu Cailing didn't say anything else, but she was a little satisfied with Cherry's performance, and she didn't talk much, which was what she valued the most. "But what's in this soup, and how does it taste different from what we usually eat?" Even the color looks like early summer, and it makes you feel good when you look at it.

"Probably her secret recipe." Ruan Yuanluo said with a smile. Turning his head and asking Cherry, "What are you doing now?" Call her up to talk. ”

Cherry thought for a moment, not knowing if she should tell the owner what she had just seen, Chu Cailing saw her appearance, put down the porcelain bowl, and said, "If you have anything to say, don't care about anything else." ”

"Yes, hall master, someone came here just now to buy wine with the little white girl, and the slave recognized the clothing pattern of the servant, it was the lady of the Wang family."

"The Wang family? Madam? Shang Ting? ”

"Who?" Ruan Yuanluo asked casually.

Chu Cailing smiled and said: "The only daughter of a merchant in Shangzhen, more than half of the chief stewards of the Hui County Chamber of Commerce are from merchants, it is really cheap for Wang Yanchang, if it weren't for her marrying into the Wang family, how could Wang Yanlin succeed his brother." Perhaps thinking of Lin Wenhai, Chu Cailing's tone was a little mean, "The president is not a three-tier and nine-rate person who can do it." ”

Ruan Yuanluo's face was a little pale.

Cherry continued: "I heard the maid say that it was because Mrs. Shang was unwell after a tiring trip last time, and it happened that a jar of hawthorn wine sent by the little white girl relieved Mrs. Shang's uncomfortable symptoms. ”

"Xiaobai still has this ability?" Chu Cailing was a little surprised, her impression of Xiaobai has been constantly changing since last night.

The scroll on the wall of the hall, the carpet at the door, and the set of glass cups behind the counter are not objects that can be used in such a small inn in the wilderness. Looking at Xiaobai again, although her appearance is a little flawed, her temperament is refined, not affected by the vulgar eyes of the world at all, and she has a sense of existence that she can't ignore.

"Yes, the slave maid also thinks it's interesting, Mrs. Shang bought ten jars of wine at once."

"Not only is he strong, but he also drinks fiercely." Chu Cailing smiled. "Tell me to go down, and set out in an hour."

"Yes." Cherry retreated.

Ready to go, Ruan Yuanluo hesitated for a while, but still jumped out of the carriage and ran to Xiaobai, both of them felt a little embarrassed, but Ruan Yuanluo opened her mouth first, "Xiaobai, I will write to you, you must write back to me." ”

Xiaobai nodded, and his desire to say a few more words for Lin Wenhai was finally suppressed, "I know, I will." ”

"Ah Yin loves your fruit bowl very much! There were some fruits she had never seen. Ruan Yuanluo smiled.

Xiaobai turned around and took out a bamboo basket from behind the counter, which was covered with orchid cotton cloth intact, "Take it, eat it on the road." ”

Ruan Yuanluo was stunned for a moment, and said, "There is something I still want to tell you, do you know how the eldest lady of the Lin family answered the emperor's question after she won the first place again?" She said that she loved to play the flute since she was a child, so she also liked the crisp sound of leaves, which is a technique she has practiced and studied for many years, and it is unique in Qingguo. ”

Although there was only one night of friendship, Ruan Yuanluo admired that Xiaobai did not have the atmosphere of a businessman's philistine, but was simple and lovely, so she didn't want her to be deceived by someone with a heart.

Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, smiled, and said, "Then I'll tell you one more thing, the eldest lady of the Lin family's current fiancé was fond of me before." ”

"What's going on? I haven't heard you say that! ”

Xiaobai laughed and said: "The Lin family is kind to me, no matter what happens, I won't blame her, after all, she gave me that string of precious water glass, Luo Luo, thank you." Xiaobai shook his wrist.

"Miss, the hall owner has urged." Ah Yin trotted over and bowed slightly.

Ruan Yuluo smiled: "She gave this to you?" ”

"It wasn't originally for me, but now it really belongs to me."

"I'm leaving." Ruan Yuanluo was reluctant to look at Xiaobai, and then looked at the welcome guest, and her eyes fell on Xiaobai's birthmark, "Is there a way to remove your birthmark?" Was it brought from the womb? What should I do if I get married in the future? ”

Xiaobai suddenly laughed, the last person who asked her if she could get rid of it was the old lady of the Lin family, and the reason was also that she was worried that she would not be able to marry in the future, "Let's go quickly!" Don't call the owner and wait. ”

Ruan Yuluo didn't ask anymore, turned around and said, "I'll let Aunt Chu go to check on the Wang family." She could feel the reluctance on Xiaobai's body, and she understood those words that she wanted to say and stopped.

"Little white girl, this is from the hall owner." Ah Yin put a wooden box in her hand.

Xiaobai came back to his senses and hurriedly asked, "The account is settled, how can I pay it back?" She didn't want it, but Ah Yin took a step back.

"If the owner rewards you, you will take it. This is what you deserve, don't shirk, my eldest lady is innocent, if there is offense between words, don't care about the little white girl. Ah Yin expressed his gratitude to her very sincerely and turned to leave.

Xiao Bai watched the team leave in a majestic manner, and his heart was indescribably moved.

In the carriage, Cherry uncovered the orchid cotton cloth, and Chu Cailing exclaimed, "This is all brought by that Xiaobai?" "Honeydew melons and pears are more common in the fruit, and her spirit fruit is nothing, and they have tasted purple grapes just now. However, there are two rare imported products in this bamboo basket - sesame banana and purple dragon fruit. This is something that is rare even for the emperors in the imperial palace. "There's so little in that box." She couldn't help but sigh.

"The slave maid thinks that the little white girl doesn't care about these things at all."

"How?"

"Mrs. Shang's maidservant gave a purse, and the little white girl received it directly into her arms." Cherry said.

The peach took a purple dragon fruit, and according to the owner's instructions, the thin skin was cut into pieces, and the purple-red flesh exuded a faint sweet taste.

Xiao Bai really didn't look at what was in the box, and together with the purse, he received the cabinet, this red sandalwood low cabinet, full of all kinds of purses and boxes used to hold silver, but Xiao Bai never opened it and looked at it, because she didn't care about it.

Ruan Yuluo looked at Aunt Chu, who was in a good mood at this time, and said cautiously: "Aunt Chu, do you also like Xiaobai?" ”

Chu Cailing looked at Ruan Yuanluo with a worried look, thinking that it had only been one night, why did this girl have such a good relationship with Xiaobai, "What do you want to say?" ”

"Huh? It's nothing, Xiaobai's life experience is actually quite bumpy, and the Lin family is kind to her... ”

"The Lin family? You can't be talking about the Lin family in Huicheng, right? Xiaobai and the Lin family are familiar with each other? ”

Ruan Yuanluo responded, but she didn't know what to say, she and Xiaobai just met each other, and now she has to excuse Xiaobai's friend, isn't it too unbelievable? "Xiaobai said that it was the Wang family's ghost."

Chu Cailing glanced at Ruan Yuanluo leisurely, thinking that it was really the same as what Sang Lan said, but in fact, the whole thing had nothing to do with Wen Qing? "Like your mother, don't worry, I'll figure it all out, you can tell Xiaobai that the owner of the Cailing Pavilion is not a person with a small belly, and he pays attention to a rational word in everything."

Great, with this promise, Ruan Yuanluo was relieved and happily ate the purple dragon fruit on the plate.
