Summer is scorching, and dog days come quietly.

In the lotus pond sludge on the side of the agarwood house, there are unblemished lotus flowers, powdery faces, and dew in the morning, making the agarwood house a rare cool place.

The Xie family's house said that it had not been settled, so Xie Chunfang and Xie Chunfei had been living in the Shen family, and the two said that they had a contract with Shen Qiutong, and the Wang family arranged for them to live in Qinyuxuan, not far from Yunxiu Pavilion, which was originally the boudoir of Shen Qiuqi, the eldest daughter of the Yao family.

On this day, Shen Qiutan just picked up Xiao Changzhen and teased his younger brother to call someone, and Xiaogua hurriedly came to report that it was the sixth girl who came with the two girls of the Xie family.

Shen Qiutan sighed, then Xie Chunfang is okay, Xie Chunfei's eyes are rolling around, and she wants everything, which is really annoying.

"Ninth sister! You're so cool here! Sure enough, Xie Chunfei looked around as soon as he entered the door.

Shen Qiutan was not ready to take people to the attic, but only ordered the maids to serve tea in the living room on the first floor.

Xie Chunfei said again: "Ninth sister, I heard that your bedroom is facing a pool of lotus flowers, and it is the most refreshing to open the window to enjoy the flowers in summer." ”

Shen Qiutan nodded and didn't answer.

Xie Chunfei looked at her sister with some grievances, and then looked at Shen Qiutong, who drank tea and was silent.

It stands to reason that Xie Chunfei is a guest, since he mentioned this, then Shen Qiutan should bring someone up, but Shen Qiutan is unwilling, and Shen Qiutong is naturally not willing to be this good old man, but the four of them don't speak, so they can't help but be a little embarrassed: "Ninth sister, the congratulatory gift you gave to the fifth sister and the gift is the rouge of Chen Yuntang?" ”

"Exactly, I don't know how to needle and thread, and if I can't show off the handkerchief purse, I can only take a trick." Of course, the main purpose is to save money.

"That rouge is really good, in the end, it is only available in places like the capital." Xie Chunfang had just been in the capital not long ago, and she also went out for a few walks, and when she saw Chen Yuntang lining up at the door, she couldn't help but join in the excitement, the fat tentacles were smooth, the makeup was obedient and natural, and the lipstick made her want to have one for everything, but she didn't have much savings, and in the end, she was only ruthless, and bought a lipstick, which is not very willing to use it now.

This Shen Jiu sister is a complete set as soon as she shoots, but it is really generous.

What a misunderstanding.

"I don't have much money per month, but the fourth aunt still owes me five taels of gold, and it just so happened that the fourth aunt repaid the money during that time, so I was also generous, and the left and right are also my own sisters, good or not, it's just a mind." It's strange to say, Shen Qiutan still hasn't figured it out, why did the little Yang clan suddenly pay back the money, could it be that his brain was kicked by a donkey?

"That's right." Shen Qiutong echoed the two sentences, and said: "The end of the month is the birthday of the noble concubine, and I am afraid that Beijing will be lively again." ”

Shen Qiutan was not interested in this, but if it was lively, he could take this opportunity to hold a promotion, but the Xie family sisters were bright: "I heard that the concubine's mother's family is going to hold a banquet?" ”

They knew very well that it was impossible to enter the Fangchen banquet in the palace, but the He family in the Guogong Mansion didn't know if these Shen family girls were willing to take their sisters with them.

Shen Qiutong was secretly annoyed that she had mentioned this stubble, she was not young, her mother almost didn't go out of the door, the second aunt was good at socializing, but she wouldn't deliberately bring her niece in the next room, so she herself really wanted to go to those banquets, she didn't feel that she was worse than those noble girls, how could she not find a good home for herself?

Originally, she didn't have hope for the He family's banquet, but in the spring, she received a post for the spring banquet of the eldest princess of Longqing, and she was rewarded by the eldest princess, so will the He family's banquet be ......

However, her heart was already tight, so naturally she wouldn't say anything to the Xie sisters, and when she saw that the time was almost up, she said goodbye, Xie Chunfei couldn't go upstairs to see what the lotus was a little disappointing, but there was no way to disappoint it.

Seeing Shen Qiutan politely get up to see off the guests, Xie Chunfei secretly said in his heart, you are proud now, you won't even let me go upstairs, but it may not be who will be the master of this house in the future!

…………

The two shops have excellent flowing water, and Shen Qiutan's hands are gradually becoming richer, Bai Zhi and red beans will receive some rewards from time to time, and Shen Qiutan can afford more and more incense materials.

"Girl, the fifth girl and the sixth girl have all started to learn to manage the house, you are here...... Do you want to go and have a soft relationship with the second lady? "The red bean needle chiseling skill is not as good as Bai Zhi's, but her mind is exquisite, and she can say this, she is already very thinking about Shen Qiutan.

After all, how a woman is, it still depends on her husband's family in the future, and what kind of ability you have can match what kind of husband's family.

This governing family director is the top priority of everyone's clan wife, even if she marries an ordinary family, her in-laws are more willing to marry someone who can live.

Shen Qiutan nodded: "I'm awake." ”

Hongdou saw that she flipped through the treasure incense book left by the third lady, and didn't raise her head, knowing that this girl didn't go to her heart, so she had to retreat with some regret, in her opinion, their girls are rare in time, and they are almost unforgettable in reading and learning words, those girls are enlightened at the age of seven, and they have learned more than ten years old, and it is better for their own girls to learn for more than half a year!

But the girl's mind doesn't need to be in the right place, and they can't be maids.

Shen Qiutan put down the incense spectrum and rubbed the sore forehead, she didn't care, it was a matter of time before the housekeeper was done, but could it be achieved by bowing her head with the Wang family?

She thought it would be better to wait for her uncle to come, find out how much of her mother's dowry was left, and then mention the housekeeper's affairs, which would be more appropriate.

In the letter sent by Chen Zhuang'er, his uncle had already set off in advance, but Guangling was far away from the capital, and he didn't know when he would arrive.
