"Hey! Where is this something to worry about, so let's give Miss San an idea," Aunt Zhang said with a smile: "When Aunt Luo was young, her favorite snack was pea yellow, especially from the Chen family shop on East Street...... The third lady might as well send someone to buy two boxes, and then personally send them to the Kindness Hall to ensure that Aunt Luo and Grandma are happy......"

……

Midnight.

The sound of firecrackers and fireworks in the capital city is gorgeous.

In the Garden of Dawn.

Mrs. Tai took off the hairpin, cleaned her face and hands, and then changed her clothes and went to bed under the service of the maid.

The maids retreated, and only Mother Wu was left in the inner room.

Wu's mother was about to put the bed curtain down.

"Don't be busy yet," Mrs. Tai patted the edge of the bed and said, "Come and sit." ”

Mother Wu hurriedly stopped what she was doing and sat respectfully next to the edge of the bed.

Mrs. Tai took out a brocade box similar to the one she had just given to Tao's mother from the pillow, handed it to Wu's mother, and said, "You have worked hard this year, this is for you." ”

"Mrs. Xie's reward." Mother Wu hurriedly got up and took it, and said sincerely: "It's all what an old slave should do, and it doesn't deserve Mrs. Tai's hard work." ”

"Okay, you don't have to be humble," Mrs. Tai waved her hand casually and said, "Sit down, let's talk." ”

Mother Wu sat down again and waited for a few breaths, but seeing that Mrs. Tai did not mean to speak, her mind changed, and she flattered a few auspicious words.

Talked for a while.

Mother Wu noticed that Mrs. Tai had always been absent-minded.

After another moment.

It's not too early to see.

"Mrs. Tai, it's time for you to rest, it's already late," Mother Wu persuaded softly: "Early tomorrow morning, the young masters and young ladies in the mansion will come to pay you New Year's greetings." ”

"Oh, it's already so late," Mrs. Tai said suddenly, "Don't worry, you don't have to get up early to go to the palace to congratulate." ”

The Zhenguo Houfu is in the period of filial piety, so there is no need to enter the palace.

Mother Wu couldn't figure out what Mrs. Tai was really thinking at this time, so she didn't dare to say more.

There was silence.

"Didn't you say that you were very sick? No matter how she looks, her complexion is better than when she returned home. ”

A sentence that suddenly had no head and no brains.

Mother Wu couldn't help but be stunned.

Moment.

Finally, after suddenly understanding who Mrs. Tai was talking about, Mother Wu's face turned white in an instant.

"This, at that time, the old slave went to see it in person, at that time, she was lying in bed unconscious......" Wu's mother hung her head and snorted: "She has indeed been sick for several months, I heard that it was not until autumn that she could barely get out of bed......"

You can hear pins falling in the room.

I waited a long time.

Mother Wu couldn't help it, and quietly raised her eyes to look, but saw that Mrs. Tai's face was cloudy and uncertain, and she was so frightened that she lowered her head again, not daring to look at it again.

……

The second day is the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Early in the morning, the five sisters of the Wei family were waiting in the east wing of Xiyuan nearly an hour earlier than usual.

It's just that everyone slept late last night, and got up early today, so I can't help but feel a little weak.

"Ah~" Wei Ya covered her mouth and yawned again.

Yawning is contagious, and after a while, the sisters are yawning.

Several people couldn't help but look at each other, and even Wei Feng, who had a cold face, laughed along.

At this moment, the curtain was raised.

Mother Wu walked in with a smile on her face.

"The ladies have worked hard." Mother Wu said with a smile.

The sisters hurriedly got up and politely called: "Mother Wu."

"Mrs. Tai asked the old slave to send a few bowls of goat's milk, so that the young ladies could warm up first," as she spoke, Mother Wu motioned to the little maids behind her to give each of the five sisters of the Wei family a small bowl of goat milk.

A few people thanked them politely.

Mother Wu came to Wei Man again and said with a smile: "Mrs. Tai said that the third lady's body is weak, and goat's milk is the most nourishing, and told me to watch the third miss drink it." ”

Wei Man looked at Mother Wu in slight surprise.

How so? How could Mrs. Tai suddenly do this to her?

Mother Wu smiled and blinked her eyes twice.

Wei Man had to suppress the doubts in his heart, and said a few kind words to Wu's mother with a smile.

Wei Ya on the side heard the conversation between Mother Wu and Wei Man, her eyebrows couldn't help frowning, and she instantly understood the reason for the appearance of the bowl of goat's milk in front of her, she raised her eyes, looked at Wei Man deeply, pouted her lips with disdain, put down the small bowl she wanted to drink in her hand, and pushed it away a little, never looking at it again.

Wei Xian looked at Wei Man, then at Wei Ya, and gently moved the small bowl away.

Wei Feng took a small sip of goat's milk, looking like he didn't care about everything around him.

Wei Yun drank it all with a small bowl, put down the bowl, and sat stiffly without squinting.

Here, Weiman has already drunk two sips of goat's milk in a row.

This bowl was already small, and it quickly went to most of it.

"Hey! I'm going to go back to Mrs. Tai," Wu's mother smiled, "Say that the third lady has finished drinking, so that her old man can rest assured." ”

"I'm tired of Mother Wu," Wei Man hurriedly got up again to send him off, and said politely: "Please also ask Mother Wu to thank my grandmother on my behalf......"

……

When Wei Man returned to his seat, he obviously noticed that the atmosphere in the room was far from being as harmonious as it had been, and Wei Ya scolded Huai a few words in a weird manner.

Wei Man didn't have the heart to deal with Wei Ya because she remembered Mrs. Tai's sudden attention to her, who knows, Wei Man's ignorance made Wei Ya even more angry.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for a little maid to come in and invite the five sisters to wait in the main hall.

went to the main hall, waited a little longer,

"Mrs. Tai is here." The little maid said.

Wei Man raised his eyes and looked at the curtain in the inner room, but was surprised to find that the person who helped Mrs. Tai out was actually Aunt Zhang.

Mrs. Tai first looked around the people in the room and said with a smile: "It's all here." ”

The second lady Cao Shi hurriedly stepped forward and smiled: "Aren't they all here?" I want to get some New Year's blessings by your side as soon as possible......"

Mrs. Tai and the others couldn't help but laugh.

Wei Man was keenly aware that Mrs. Tai's look around just now seemed very casual, but her gaze stayed on her body for two more breaths.

Everyone greeted Mrs. Tai one by one, and after saying a few auspicious words, a little maid came in to say that the meal had been arranged, and everyone went to the hall again, divided the men and women's tables, and used the first meal of the second year of Yuanping together.

After the meal, everyone accompanied Mrs. Tai to talk for a while, because it was the New Year, they all picked up the auspicious wishes, and Mrs. Tai also cheered, and the atmosphere was also happy.

Half an hour later.

Mrs. Tai brought tea.

Everyone hurriedly got up and retired.

Mrs. Tai suddenly said again: "Three girls, stay for a while." ”

The second master and several young masters didn't care.

The second lady, Cao Shi and Wei Ya, all looked at Wei Man in surprise.

"Yes." Wei Man was also surprised in his heart, but he looked happy on his face, and said with a smile: "I can get more of my grandmother's blessings." ”

Before Wei Man's words fell, he heard Wei Ya beside him snort coldly.

The second lady Cao Shi hurriedly dragged Wei Ya secretly, and said to Mrs. Tai with a smile: "Then the daughter-in-law will lead them down first......

After everyone left.

Wei Man's heart was a little drumming, but he stepped forward with a smile and asked with concern, "Did grandmother sleep well last night?" ”

"Okay, good," Mrs. Tai responded, and waved her hand to signal Wei Man to sit down on the small pestle in front of her.

"Hey, you girl, you are a solid child, you love to hide everything you do......" Mrs. Tai looked at Wei Man, sighed, and told the matter of the apricot tea she only knew last night, and said: "If this was Wei Ya, I would have said it a long time ago and let me know......"

It turned out to be this matter, and Wei Man's heart couldn't help but relax.

To do one point and shout out two points of merit is indeed Weiya's character.

Wei Man didn't want to make any comments on Wei Ya, so he had to look ashamed and said embarrassedly: "It's not a big deal...... Honoring your grandmother is what a granddaughter should do......"

At the beginning, Wei Man also deliberately asked Wu's mother not to do it, but I don't know if something happened last night, how could Wu's mother suddenly say it.

Mrs. Tai praised Wei Man a few more words and rewarded a precious jade bracelet.

Seeing that Mrs. Tai brought tea, Wei Man was about to get up and say goodbye.

"By the way," Mrs. Tai seemed to suddenly remember, and asked again, "I heard that you had a very good conversation with Aunt Luo and Grandma Luo last night, what did you say?" ”

Heard? Listen to whom? Wei Man instantly thought of Aunt Zhang's grandmother's face.

Looking at the casual look on Mrs. Tai's face, Wei Man was sure that Mrs. Tai's heart would never be as calm as the expression on her face.

"This ......" Wei Man said a little embarrassed: "It's my granddaughter's fault, I look good, so I'm wearing a little thinner...... I rubbed my hands, but Aunt Luo saw it, so she lent me the hand stove. ”

"Oh, so that's the case," Mrs. Tai let out a faint sigh, took a sip of tea, swallowed, and said lightly: "Aunt Luo has a heart." ”

Wei Man's mind turned around very quickly, and he smiled: "It's nothing, it's just that Aunt Luo and Grandma saw it by chance...... Compared with Aunt Luo's grandmother, her granddaughter feels that Aunt Zhang is more kind. ”

"Aunt Zhang?" Mrs. Tai's face was obviously stunned, as if she didn't expect Weiman to mention Aunt Zhang's grandmother, although her expression was a little puzzled, she didn't care very much, and asked, "Oh? Why? ”

"To say, the granddaughter just said a few kind words to Aunt Luo last night, and besides, Aunt Luo gave the hand stove to the granddaughter and went back, and the relationship is really not harmonious, but the granddaughter and Aunt Zhang talked very happily," Wei Man seemed to recall the scene at that time, and said to Mrs. Tai with a smile: "The granddaughter didn't have any conversations with Aunt Zhang before, and after a long conversation last night, the granddaughter really admired Aunt Zhang...... I didn't expect Aunt Zhang and Grandma to know so many ways to maintain her body, as well as all kinds of nourishing soups......"

Last night's conversation with Aunt Zhang's grandmother surprised Wei Man to find that Aunt Zhang's cooking skills are not only very good, but she should also have a certain amount of medical science......
