Chapter 77 Full Moon (2nd Watch)
Jiang Xinyao took two steps forward, her eyebrows as awe-inspiring as jade.
"It's a pity that the fifteen thousand taels of silver. I advised the third sister to be more restrained. If you don't know, you can't do it unless you do. Maybe next time it won't be so good! ”
Xin Yaoshan's face changed greatly, she snorted coldly, flicked her sleeves, and walked away.
After a few maids saw people leaving, they hurriedly came in to clean, Yinggui glanced at Miss worriedly, and just wanted to speak, she heard Miss say: "Danyue, go to my mother's to get a beauty bottle, and by the way, go to the garden to pick plum blossoms and raise them well." ”
Danyue looked at Yinggui, who nodded and hurried away.
Ying returned and said, "Miss, is the third miss okay?" ”
Jiang Xinyao sneered: "What can she do?" If you're in a bad mood, just find a punching bag. Ignore her, let's live ours. ”
On the second day, everyone in Jiang's mansion knew that yesterday, the third lady broke a beauty bottle in the fourth lady's room. Some people say that Miss Four is rude to Miss Three, Miss Three is so angry that she drops the beauty bottle, and some people say that Aunt Zhou is grounded, Miss Three is angry, and deliberately looks for Miss Four's stubble.
Xin Yao listened, smiled faintly, and did not say a word.
The old lady specially asked Mama Qian to listen to Fengxuan to ask, but Xin Yao only said that she had broken the beauty bottle by mistake, and it was none of the third sister's business. Mama Qian replied to the old lady, but the old lady didn't say anything, and one of them rewarded a pearl hairpin. There is that sharp-eyed person in the house, and he naturally understands it in his heart.
……
On this day, Jiang Ruolan, the granddaughter of the big house of the Jiang Mansion, gave a full moon ceremony, and the Jiang Mansion has always been low-key, and only invited a few good families to come to the house to be lively.
Because of her old age, Mrs. Jiang was supported by Mama Qian, showed her face, talked to a few old sisters she knew, and went back to the hospital.
Although Jiang Xinyao was afraid of socializing, it seemed unreasonable not to appear on such an occasion, so she had to dress up a little, and followed her eldest aunt and mother with her third sister. The young lady laughed behind her.
Today, Jiang Xinshan obliquely inserted plum blossom beads and red gold hairpins, with gold locks hanging on her neck, jasper bracelets in her hands, and pearl pink flower jackets. Qiao Shengsheng stood behind the Gu family, and people who didn't know thought she was the Gu family's concubine.
Jiang Xinyao didn't care, her eyebrows were low, she smiled shallowly, and followed behind Chen with the appearance of a beautiful girl.
In the end, the Chen family is also from everyone's background, needless to say, he treats people and things, retreats properly, and it is his granddaughter's full moon ceremony, smiling so much that he can't see his eyes.
Shen Ying's mother, Liu, came with her daughter-in-law Zhang Xinyue today and teased Sister Huilan in her daughter's room. So he handed the child over to the nurse and wanted to say something considerate to her daughter.
Zhang's eyes were quite impressive, and he quietly retreated, and looked into the garden, and what caught his eye in the colorful crowd was the plain clothes. Miss Jiang Si standing tall. Two years ago, I heard my sister talk about this fourth lady, and she only said that she was a good one, but she looked at it from a distance, but she was a little weak.
Jiang Xinyao saw someone looking at her with a smile, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "This sister is so familiar." ”
Seeing her blessing, Zhang's secret said that the Jiang family was a good tutor, and said with a smile: "Two years ago, the Dragon Boat Festival cruise. Xinyu mentioned you to me, and I am Xinyu's sister Xinyue. ”
Jiang Xinyao suddenly realized, "It turned out to be Sister Xinyue, the strange way is familiar, Sister Xinyu is good now?" ”
Zhang smiled: "She, she was detained at home by her mother and couldn't get out, and she complained all day long."
Jiang Xinyao smiled: "It's been two years. Sister Xinyu's fairy jade looks like yesterday, flashing in front of my eyes, this south and north, I don't know if I will have a chance to see you again? ”
Zhang said: "If there is fate, we will meet." Sister, what do you say? ”
Xin Yao smiled: "Sister's words are more appropriate, between people, don't you pay attention to the word fate?" I was able to meet my sister today, and I had a very happy conversation, which was also a response to this word. ”
Zhang said with a smile: "Good sister, seeing you today, my sister is happy, this bracelet sister has been wearing it for a few years, give it to my sister to play, if you are free, you often come to Shen Mansion to walk around." With that, he took the bracelet off his hand and put it on Xin Yao's wrist with his glove.
Where is Xin Yao willing to accept it, and hurriedly excused herself: "It's so precious, how can you make it, Sister Xinyue must not." ”
Zhang said angrily: "What, but I dislike my sister's etiquette? ”
Xin Yao had no choice but to say, Fang said: "That sister, thank you for your love." Come and don't be rude.,My sister doesn't have anything good.,This handpiece is a new one that my sister recently gets.,Give it to my sister.。 ”
Zhang took the hand, only feeling the novelty: "Sister, this style is very chic, but I have never seen it." ”
Xin Yao said with a smile: "Sister Xinyue, this is a new handbracelet from Jinjue Pavilion, I just feel that it is close to my eyes." ”
Zhang praised: "I look at it and think it's good, it's a thing from Jinjue Pavilion, dare to see it, I'll also take a look." ”
"Sister, take it, this is also my sister's heart, is it difficult to ......"
"In this case, my sister is disrespectful."
Jiang Xinyao dogged Zhang to put it on, and said busily: "It really seems to be tailor-made for my sister, it looks good." ”
Zhang Xinyue saw that Miss Jiang Si was talking and laughing, and secretly praised in her heart, and while she was talking and laughing, Xia He hurriedly came over, and saw that Miss Fourth was talking to someone, so she hurriedly stepped forward to greet her, and whispered a few words in Xin Yao's ear.
What kind of character is Zhang? Busy said: "Sister, after standing for a long time, I am also tired, I want to sit down and rest, my sister is self-sufficient." ”
Jiang Xinyao said with a smile: "Sister please first, sister will come when she goes, and the banquet will be held in a while, and I will have the opportunity to talk to my sister again." After that, he was blessed, and left with Xia He.
Seeing that Jiang Xinyao was far away, Zhang carefully looked at the Lianzi in his hand, eight pale green jade rings, the same size, the same water color, strung with silver Lianzi, small and smart, and he couldn't help but like Jiang Xinyao a little more.
……
Jiang Xinyao hurriedly followed Xia He. The master and servant spoke softly as they walked.
What is thy word?
It turned out that there was a male guest in the front yard, who was Shen Li, a friend of his younger brother Jiang Yuanchen.
Mrs. Shen was tired of staying in Suzhou Mansion for the past two years, and suddenly thought that she had spent most of her life in the capital competing for fame and fortune and learning from business. Now that the son and daughter are self-reliant, they are living a good life, so there is no need to worry. While you can still walk, it is better to walk more, look more, and close your eyes when you die.
So as soon as his stubborn temper came up, he took his favorite little grandson to travel around the famous mountains and rivers. This walk is two years.
It just so happened that a while ago, the old man was greedy for the beautiful scenery in Yuntai Mountain, and he was proud for a while. After a few more drinks, he fell ill that night. A man in his sixties, his body is not as good as before, and his son. The daughters sent people to urge them over and over again, and they had to go back to Suzhou Mansion.
Shen Li followed his grandfather to wander outside for two years, looking at the magnificent mountains and rivers, tasting gluttonous food, no one was in charge, and his life was called a cool word. Kung fu and learning have never fallen behind.
As soon as I returned to Suzhou Mansion in the past few days, for some reason, I missed the home-cooked dishes I tasted in the Jiang family's old house that day, and it coincided with the full moon of my cousin's daughter today, and I cheekily begged Yuanchen's little brother to come.
Jiang Yuanchen knew two years ago that Brother Shen Li had gone on a tour with Old Man Shen. I have long been envious, and my heart is relaxed. I was thrilled to see it today.
Shen Li talked about the mountains and rivers he has walked in the past two years, the various characters he has seen, and the ups and downs of the road. only listened to Jiang Yuanchen as if he was fascinated. Speaking of the highlights, Shen Li turned his words and proposed that he wanted to taste the craftsmanship of Yinggui again. How can Jiang Yuanchen have a reason not to go? This guy is now also learning to be obedient, and he knows that his sister listens to his mother the most, so he sent someone to beg his mother.
Jiang Xinyao listened to Xia He's words slowly all the way, and she had already scolded her younger brother in her heart. The warbler was sent by Xin Yao to Taohuawu Lane, and there are many people today. It's a good time to fish in troubled waters, as smart as Miss Jiang Si, where would she miss this opportunity. Who knows which tendon surnamed Shen is wrong, what home-cooked food to eat, and if the two of them get together, it will make Jiang Xinyao angry.
Jiang Xinyao looked at her slender jade hands. White and tender, delicate and smooth, weak and boneless, and secretly bitter. I had to take off my new shirt, put on my old clothes, and go to the kitchenette.
Two hours later. Dusk Yuxuan side hall, light moon, Weiyun held the food box in his hand, and brought the dishes to the table. The eye-catcher is four dishes and one soup, Dongpo pork, steamed mandarin fish, boiled eel slices, shrimp lily and lotus root pork rib soup.
Jiang Yuanchen and Shen Li sat on both sides, and when they saw only five dishes, they were disappointed.
Seeing this, Danyue pursed her lips, and couldn't help but say loudly: "Two young masters, the warbler is not here today, and the kitchen that Miss personally cooks, whether it is good or bad, you will know it when you taste it." ”
When the two heard this, they raised their wine glasses, toasted each other, and raised their chopsticks. As soon as I tasted the first bite, I was stunned.
Jiang Yuanchen listened to Fengxuan's people every day, and he couldn't taste the good or the bad, so he hurriedly said: "Is it really my sister who did it?" ”
"Naturally, the young lady did it, third master, the slave doesn't dare to coax you."
Jiang Yuanchen hated it, gritted his teeth and said, "I thought my sister would only make meat buns." Hmph, and lied to me that I couldn't cook. ”
Tan Yue sneered: "Third master, over the years, the young lady has only cooked a few meals for the immortal deceased master, or it depends on the situation that the old man is sick." If it weren't for the warbler's return today, and the second wife ordered it down again, where would she do it herself? Our young lady is like Jin Yu, and she is not a cook. ”
Jiang Yuanchen was suddenly discouraged, pointed at Danyue and said, "Master, let me say a word, you have ten sentences waiting to reply to me, what about being angry with me?" ”
Danyue was not afraid, and said with a smile: "How dare the slave and maid?" ”
That Shen Li took advantage of the third master's questioning, and frequently put down his chopsticks. Jiang Yuanchen came back to his senses, saw that the dish was half served, and he couldn't speak at the moment.
Seeing that the two of them were bored and eating, the light moon, and Weiyun glanced at each other, thinking about the young lady's little hands that had just been burned by the oil, and her face was a little ugly.
……
Shen Li drank three bowls of lotus root soup in a row, then put down his chopsticks, and after tasting it carefully, he raised his head and said, "What's so special about the ingredients for today's five dishes?" ”
Weiyun said with a smile: "Today's banquet in the house, the small kitchen is not prepared, the young lady has to take the ingredients from the big kitchen, and the time is tight, nothing special." The young lady said that as long as you put your heart in it, no matter how bad the ingredients are, you can make delicious food. ”
Jiang Yuanchen was full of wine and food, holding his stomach, burping, and sitting comfortably on the chair.
Shen Li laughed and said: "Today's meal, the mouth is fragrant, the aftertaste is endless, the wine and delicacies, one or two friends, and the happy things in life." Brother Chen, let's go to the garden to consume food, the sun is very good today, let's go through two tricks. ”
Jiang Yuanchen's stomach is uncomfortable, how can it be unreasonable? Gladly went. (..)
