Chapter 361: Chengjiang Storm (5)
After the spring cicada spoke, he took the food box containing delicate snacks in Qin's mother's hand, carried Qin's mother to the embroidered stool that the maid had moved over and sat down, and then said.
"Mother Qin, when the slave maid heard that Brother Yucheng brought the Hai family over a few days ago, but I heard Brother Yucheng say, your wife has been sick these days, and she is too sick to get out of bed, why did she suddenly think of making these snacks and asking someone to send them over?"
The spring cicada only said three or two sentences, and Qin's mother, who was sitting on the embroidery stool, asked, if she answered that it was Liang's sudden whim today, and specially called her to send it, wouldn't it secretly show that Liang's has not reached the point where he is too sick to get up?
Since it has not yet reached the point where he is too sick to get up, why should he let Brother Yucheng bring the Hai family over to learn housekeeping?
If Mother Qin replied to the spring cicada like this, she was afraid that it would not be appropriate, so she thought about it carefully, but chose to bypass this topic, and patted the back of the spring cicada's hand while replying lightly.
"Spring cicada girl, please quickly open the food box and bring out the snacks inside!
These snacks were made by my wife dragging her sick body, and as soon as they were made and steaming, she asked the old slave to pack them in a food box and bring them to the eldest lady to taste. ”
Mother Qin didn't respond to the words of the spring cicada, but instructed her to put out the dim sum in the food box.
Mother Qin deliberately bypassed the topic of Fang Cai, and the spring cicada would not force Mother Qin to reply to her question, but took out the dim sum in the food box and re-placed it in the small lotus pattern plate of blue and white porcelain that the maid in the pantry had already served.
This set of blue and white porcelain lotus pattern small plates was sent by Liang Mama in person a few days ago, saying that it was a famous product of Ruyao, and was sent to thank Yang for his arrangement on the night of Gu Yucheng's wedding.
How to take it out and pack the dim sum sent by Liang himself is the most suitable.
Yang sat on the soft couch and glanced at the mung bean cake and red bean cake on the small plate, and looked very delicate, but he didn't know how it tasted?
After taking a piece of mung bean cake and tasting it, Yang knew that these dim sum in front of him were indeed from Liang's hands, and they were indeed her craftsmanship. The appearance of the mung bean crisp is very crispy, and it is also coated with a layer of light frosting, but when you eat it, you don't feel sweet at all, and the sweetness is just right.
Neither one more point, nor one point less, in short, just right.
Eating the mung bean crisp in his hand, Yang remembered some of the past. I remember that she married the Gu family one step ahead of the Liang family, and the Liang family married from Jinling a year after she got married.
When the Liang family had just married into the Gu family, she relied on the fact that her maiden family behind her was the Liang Wangfu of Jinling, and she was arrogant and commanding in the mansion, and she was also instructed by the Liang family.
But Liang's is a good person, he can make a few exquisite dim sum, which makes the old lady happy, and even the second master of the Gu family also praised Liang's cooking skills.
When Yang was using the dim sum, Qin's mother sat on the embroidery stool next to her, looking at her all the time, as if she wanted to say something to Yang alone.
Taking the embroidered handkerchief handed over by Chun Cicada, Yang wiped his hands, and then asked, "Mother Qin, if you have anything you want to say to me, just say it!" There are no outsiders in this house! ”
Hearing what Yang said, Qin's mother glanced at her like a piece of relief, and replied to Yang with confidence.
"Big lady, my wife heard that Brother Yucheng sent the eldest lady over to learn housekeeping from the eldest lady, I was afraid that the eldest lady would not know the etiquette and cause trouble on the eldest lady's side, so I told the old slave to come and take a look, so that I could mention a few words about the eldest lady, don't make the eldest lady unhappy."
Mother Qin said this, Yang couldn't help but glance at her, didn't care what she just said, and asked.
"Where's your wife? Why didn't you see her come in person? Since Brother Yucheng sent the Hai family over and said that he would learn housekeeping from me for a few days, I will definitely tell Mrs. Chen to take good care of her. And Hai is a good child, and I like her very much. ”
Listening to the tone in Yang's words, he said that he liked Hai's.
Mother Qin thought that the Yang family was tricking her, so she said: "It is naturally good that the eldest lady can be liked by the eldest lady." It's just that the eldest doctor has been married for a few days, and he has been with the eldest prince all day long, but I am afraid that the etiquette that should be learned has not been fully learned, which will make the eldest lady angry?
The eldest lady still let the old slave see the eldest lady and explain a few words, right?"
Qin's mother is the one who serves by Liang's side, and she is also the housekeeper mother of the Huiyuan, and she can also be called a character who wants wind and rain in the Huiyuan.
It's just that now that the Hai family is here with the Yang family, since Gu Yucheng personally sent it over and handed it over to the Yang family, the Yang family naturally wants to protect her. If it is injured or damaged, if Gu Yucheng knows, he will not continue to rest assured that the Hai family will continue to stay in the Yang family house to learn housekeeping.
Therefore, if Qin's mother wants to see the Hai family, she still needs the permission of the Yang family.
With the permission of the Yang family, Qin's mother could go to see the Hai family.
Yang didn't speak, but glanced at the spring cicada beside him and gave her a few looks.
Chun Chan understood what Yang meant, so he turned around, picked up Mother Qin personally, and immediately said: "Mother Qin, the eldest lady is familiar with the affairs of the mansion from Mrs. Chen, and my mother also knows that Mrs. Chen is very stubborn. If my mother goes over to see the eldest lady, I'm afraid she won't see anyone. ”
Yang didn't speak, but the spring cicada spoke. made it clear that the Yang family didn't allow her to see the Hai family, pointed to a spring cicada, and wanted to send her away.
Mother Qin was angry for a moment, broke free from the hands that the spring cicada was holding her, and immediately replied.
"The eldest lady, the old slave was pointed out by the second wife, and the second lady was worried about the eldest lady in her heart, so she ordered the old slave to come and go this way. If the old slave doesn't see the eldest lady, how can the old slave give an errand to the eldest lady after he goes back?"
"Mother Qin, didn't the slave tell you? The eldest lady is now with Mrs. Chen, you are old and you don't know what kind of person Mrs. Chen is, since the eldest lady is familiar with the affairs of the house by her side, you can't go to see her when you are old!
When Mrs. Chen brings the eldest lady over, you will come again, can you do it?" Chun Cicada's tone was very peaceful, as if she was discussing things with Qin's mother.
But Mother Qin on the side, her face collapsed at that time, and her face was very unpleasant.
She is by Liang's side, how can she say that she is also a popular character, how did she come to Yang's side, and she couldn't even meet someone?
Mother Qin glared at the spring cicada viciously, her eyes were full of fierceness, and she didn't care that the Yang family was still in the house, so she reprimanded the spring cicada a few words.
"Spring cicada girl, no matter how I say it, I am serving by the side of the second wife. And the eldest lady is still from the courtyard next door to us, and the old slave was ordered by my wife to come over with snacks to see the eldest lady, can't it? ”
Seeing that Qin's mother looked like she was about to be angry, Yang hurriedly came out to play a round, so that Chun Chan and Qin's mother had to go down the stairs.
"Mother Qin, you are serving by my second brother and sister, since you came to see the Hai clan, Chun Chan will take her to have a look!" Yang said calmly to Mother Qin, and at the same time glanced at the spring cicada a few more times.
Since the Yang family has said so, even if Chun Chan doesn't want to bring the Qin mother in front of him to see the Hai family, it won't work.
Hai's was in the front yard of Wanghaixuan, and followed Mrs. Chen to learn to look at the accounts in the account room, and was familiar with the personnel of the house.
When Chun Chan took Qin's mother over, the maid who was summoned in the house had already walked for seventy-seven or eighty-eight, and Chun Chan saw that there were fewer people in the house, so he took Qin's mother into the courtyard of the account room.
The girl Chunyan was the housekeeper of the account room, and when she saw Chun Chan leading Qin's mother over, she immediately greeted a few little maids in the house and greeted them together.
Because Chunyan is the account manager of the big long room and has never set foot in the small long house, so I don't know who Qin's mother is next to the spring cicada, so I simply didn't say hello to her, and said hello to the spring cicada.
"Sister Chun Chan, you have a lot of nobles, how can you have the leisure to come to the account room? Isn't it that the sister handed it over to the eldest lady a few days ago and there was a problem, and the eldest lady instructed Sister Chuncia to scold the sister?"
Although Chunyan said this, she politely invited Chun Cicada to the house and sat down.
While beckoning the little maid in charge of the tea in the account room to bring the tea up, he personally sat in the house with the spring cicada.
"Sister Chunyan, a few days ago, you called the girl to report the past account books, the numbers are all right, the eldest lady is relieved that you are too late, how can you call your sister to scold you?"
Chun Chan smiled and took Chunyan's hand, pointed to Qin's mother beside her, and prepared to introduce Chunyan.
"Sister Chunyan, this is Mother Qin, who is serving by the second wife's side, and she is used to being valued by the second wife. Today, I brought some snacks made by the second wife, and after seeing the eldest lady, I thought about coming to see the eldest lady. I wonder if the eldest lady is in the house?"
After listening to Chun Chan's introduction, Chun Yan knew that the mother next to Chun Chan was Qin's mother who was serving by the side of the second wife, Liang.
She has been working in Gu's family room for many years, how could she not know the name of Mother Qin?
I heard that the mother Qin who was serving beside the second wife Liang was in the courtyard next door, but she was relying on the Liang family behind her, and she was a big man who wanted to be very popular, and she was very angry.
How many maids in the courtyard next door are stammering beside her, but she Chunyan is Chengyuan is the bookkeeper, and she can also be called a jingle character in Chengyuan, and the monthly silver in the house is all received from her.
Chunyan only had a face-to-face with Qin's mother, and took Qin's mother to the two compartments next door, where Mrs. Chen taught the Hai family's housekeeper.
"Mother Qin, the eldest lady is fine with me, please rest assured that the eldest son and the second wife, if the mother goes back later, remember to inform the girl who is waiting for the eldest lady.
The account room is not better than the yard, and it is windy at night, so I am afraid that it will be cold to the eldest lady, and I also asked my mother to call the girl to report a few quilts that the eldest lady is used to come over. ”
Mother Qin didn't look at Na Chunyan, nor did she listen to her words carefully, but let her take herself to the house where Mrs. Chen taught the Hai family's housekeeper to look after the accounts.
Through the half-hidden crack in the door, Qin's mother glanced at the house, a mother-in-law with a slightly dark face, who was teaching the Hai family to look after the accounts in the house.
"Big lady, the most important thing for this housekeeper is to take care of the accounts! The family's livelihood is on this ledger, but this is only the account book of the public middle school after all. If the account of the public middle school is wrong, or there is a deficit, the wife and wife of the head of the family will think of ways to make up for the shortfall. ”
Mrs. Chen's few words came out after mentioning the half-hidden door.
Chunyan pushed open the door and brought Qin's mother and Chun Chan in, because Mrs. Chen was an old man in the house, and her legs and feet were inconvenient, so even when she saw a character like Qin's mother, she didn't salute.
Instead, he continued to lean on the bamboo chair behind him, glanced at Qin's mother, and said lightly, "What kind of wind is blowing today?" actually scraped in characters like Mother Qin! ”
Mother Qin also knew that Mrs. Chen, and when she said this, Mother Qin also replied: "Mrs. Chen, the old slave was instructed by the second wife to come over to see the eldest lady." The second wife heard that the eldest lady was learning the rules from Mrs. Chen, and she was a little worried, so she ordered the slave maid to come and have a look. ”
"Is the second wife not at ease, or is your mother Qin not at ease? The old woman is an old man in the house, what kind of person your mother Qin is, the old woman still knows it in her heart. If you have something to say, let it go quickly, don't delay the old woman here to teach the eldest lady to look at the account! ”
Mrs. Chen didn't give Qin's mother face at all, and replied bluntly.
Because Mrs. Chen was an old man in the house, even if Mother Qin was holding her breath in her heart, she couldn't have a seizure immediately, so she could only say to the Hai family beside Mrs. Chen without changing her face.
"Eldest lady, it was the second lady who ordered the old slave to come and see the eldest lady, how are you learning? The second wife was worried that the eldest lady was tired of studying here with Mrs. Chen, so she specially instructed the old slave to send some snacks over so that the eldest lady could taste some. ”
Qin's mother said, and the maid who came over had already cleverly opened the food box and brought the snacks in it to the table next to Hai's.
Before the maid could put the dim sum in place, Hai pushed the dim sum in front of Mrs. Chen, and said with a smile: "Mother Chen, you must be tired after saying so many things, right?" Let's eat a few pieces of dim sum and press it! ”
Since the Hai family said so, Mrs. Chen was naturally not polite, picked up a few pieces of dim sum on the small plate and ate them.
While Mrs. Chen was using the snacks, Mother Qin pulled Hai aside alone and explained a few words to Hai behind the screen.
"Big lady, the reason why Mrs. promised Brother Yucheng to let Brother Yucheng send you to Mrs. Yu to learn housekeeping is not that I hope you can learn anything from here, but I hope that you can be in the big lady's courtyard and help us in the courtyard."
Hai didn't understand what Qin's mother said, so he immediately asked.
"I don't understand what Mother Qin said. Nephrite is in my aunt's yard, how can it help us?
When the husband sent Nephrite over, he hoped that Nephrite could learn housekeeping from his aunt, and when he returned to the hospital, even if his mother was sick in bed, Nephrite could help her. ”
Fang Cai's mother Qin's words were not clear, let the Hai family help Huiyuan, didn't tell her how to help?
It's just that there are so many people around the Yang family standing in the house, and Qin's mother is not easy to say that letting the Hai family stay in Chengyuan is to make trouble for the Yang family, right? Cause trouble for Chengyuan, right?
If the Liang family wants to regain the right to review the eldest wife of the head of the family's house, they must install the people in their own house in the Yang family's courtyard.
It's just that those little maids are too lowly, and I'm afraid that before they get to the Yang family, they will be sent away by the spring cicada three times and two times, so the Liang family can only send the Hai family over.
Liang sent Hai to learn housekeeping, firstly, in the hope that she could learn some ways to look after accounts from Mrs. Chen; The second is to let the Hai family be in Chengyuan and help the Liang family find out the news.
