Three days later, Chen Xiaoshu put on a newly made dress, combed a formal bun, inserted silver hairpins, and wore gold studs on his ears.

In a few days, the Mid-Autumn Festival will be the Middle Festival, and Chen Xiaoshu has made several kinds of moon cakes at home in the past few days, sesame peanuts, five kernels, egg yolks, and jams, which are naturally obtained from the space.

Each moon cake is small and exquisite, and the same moon cake took five, wrapped it in oiled paper and put it in a box, as a gift to Miss Guan when I went to Guan Fu today.

Chen Xiaoshu prepared two such gifts, one of which was for Guan Wang's family, Guan's grandmother, who went to Guan Mansion as a guest today, and there was no reason not to visit the master's house.

The coachman parked the carriage at the door, and the magpie came out of the carriage, and when he came in, he saw Chen Xiaoshu curtsied and said, "Our young lady specially asked the slave maid to pick you up." ”

"Thank you for your hard work, it just so happens that I have also packed up, let's go." Chen Xiaoshu said, took out a small corner of silver from his sleeve and stuffed it to the magpie.

The smile on the magpie's face became a little thicker, he accepted the silver and stuffed it into his sleeve, and diligently helped Chen Xiaoshu carry the gift box.

The coachman's skill in driving the horse was very good, and he didn't feel any bumps along the way to the Guanfu.

This time it was still a corner door, the coachman parked the car at the door, the magpie fell and jumped out of the car, and helped Chen Xiaoshu outside.

Entering the corner gate, the magpie took Chen Xiaoshu to the direction of the main courtyard, Chen Xiaoshu thought secretly in his heart.

Although Guan Luxin's brothers and sisters came from the provincial capital, there was no reason to live in the main courtyard when they came, it seems that they were going to visit Grandma Guan first.

In fact, Grandma Guan heard that Miss Guan had invited someone to be a guest today, and she was curious, plus Chen Linxiao was friendly with her younger brother and did not want to slack off, so she naturally wanted to see her.

Regarding Chen Xiaoshu's matter, she had already heard her brother say it, and Wang Hu also told herself that Chen Linxiao and Chen Xiaoshu were quite valued by Guan Luxin's brothers and sisters.

Seeing Chen Xiaoshu now, he couldn't help but say a few words, and then took off a silver bracelet from his wrist and gave it to Chen Xiaoshu, Chen Xiaoshu saw that it was not a particularly valuable jewelry, so he accepted it.

After coming out of the main courtyard, the magpie led her to the northeast.

"When we arrived, our young lady lived in the Orchid Garden in front." The magpie whispered to Chen Xiaoshu.

Chen Xiaoshu read in a low voice: "Lan Yuan, your young lady likes orchids?" ”

The magpie smiled when he heard this: "Yes, the slave doesn't know." ”

Chen Xiaoshu smiled, this is clearly what it means that it can't be said, everyone is so clever when they come out.

Walking to the front of the orchid garden, Chen Xiaoshu saw a very decently dressed and neatly dressed mother-in-law standing at the door, looking at this side with a smile.

"This is our young lady's nurse, Grandma Huan."

The magpie said to Chen Xiaoshu.

"This is Mrs. Chen, she looks really good, our young lady is reading it." Mama Huan took two steps forward and said.

Chen Xiaoshu saluted slightly: "Mama Lao Huan is waiting here." ”

Mama Huan smiled, but she was looking at Chen Xiaoshu in her heart, seeing that although Chen Xiaoshu was unfamiliar with etiquette, she was neither humble nor arrogant, and she saw that she was neither stammering nor inferior, so it seemed that it was not an unreasonable thing.

"That's what an old slave should do."

Mama Huan said that she was going to help Chen Xiaoshu from the other side.

Chen Xiaoshu dodged slightly: "Where do you dare to bother your grandmother." ”

Seeing this, Mama Huan was even more satisfied.

And the magpie didn't know where it went when it came in, and Chen Xiaoshu was not surprised, this scene was similar to when he went to the interview before.

This is clearly that they want to test themselves, but they don't know if it's Miss Guan or Mama Huan.

Chen Xiaoshu laughed with Mama Huan all the way, her voice was neither high nor low, and she didn't take a look at the furnishings in the orchid garden.

I followed Mama Huan into the main room.

I saw that the furnishings in the room were exquisite, all of them were boutiques, and a faint fragrance that seemed to be absent filled the tip of the nose.

On the embroidered bench in the room sat a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old, combing her hair in a double bun, with not many jewelry on her head, and a white jade hair ornament on one side, decorated with two silver bells underneath, very playful and lovely, and the rest of her hair was neatly scattered on her shoulders.

"This is Mrs. Chen."

Guan Jingshu was very happy when she saw Chen Xiaoshu coming in, stood up and smiled.

"Miss Guan."

Chen Xiaoshu saluted slightly and smiled.

"What's your name Miss Guan, I heard that your fiancé and my brother are good friends, my name is Jingshu, and I'm thirteen years old this year, what about you?" Guan Jingshu said and said, "I remember that my sister's maiden name also has the word Shu in it, this is really our fate." ”

Chen Xiaoshu smiled when he heard this, sat on the embroidery stool with her, and said, "I am one year older than you, fourteen this year, Jingshu, is it taken from Jingnu Qishu?" ”

Guan Jingshu's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Then I'll call you sister, Sister Chen, have you read the Book of Songs?" ”

Mama Huan was also very surprised on the side, after all, she found out the news from Wen Zhou, saying that although this Chen Niangzi was not as vulgar as other rural women, she had never studied.

Then she thought that the magpie went to Chen's house to deliver the post two days ago, and came back to say that Chen Xiaoshu had personally seen the post, and at that time she still felt that she didn't want the magpie to look down on it, and was pretending, but now it seems that it is possible that this person is really literate?

Chen Xiaoshu shook his head with a smile and said: "I haven't read it seriously, it's just that when I didn't split up, I often heard people read it, and I remembered a few words." ”

Chen Xiaoshu said and put the gift box he brought on the table and said: "The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, this is a moon cake made by myself, it is not as exquisite as what is made outside, but it tastes good, Jingshu might as well try it." ”

Guan Jingshu's eyes lit up when she heard this: "This is really good, I like to eat the cold skin that Sister Chen made for me before and the kimchi that my brother brought back to me a few days ago." ”

Chen Xiaoshu smiled when he heard this: "It's good if you like to eat, Young Master Guan has helped us a lot, and we don't have anything to grow, only my craftsmanship is okay." ”

Guan Jingshu shook her head and said, "Sister Chen, don't say that, my brother and your fiancé are friends, so we should be closer to each other." ”

Chen Xiaoshu looked at Guan Jingshu, and didn't have any contempt for herself, maybe she had, but she couldn't see it, and then thinking about Guan Luxin's usual words and deeds, she couldn't help but sigh, the Guan family is really a good tutor, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.

"By the way, Sister Chen, where did you buy the rose fragrance dew you gave me last time, it smells better than the lotus fragrance jade dew in the capital."

Guan Jingshu asked with great interest.

Chen Xiaoshu was not weak-hearted, and said with a smile: "It's also fate that last time I went to Qitong County with Lin Xiao, I met a Hu man who came to our Daxia to do business and bought it, if you think it's easy to use, I still have a bottle there, just give it to you." ”

This dynasty can't help business, and there are Hu people who come from afar to do business, which is rare in Guangjian Prefecture, but there are many in the capital, and Hu people are not uncommon.
