Chapter 189: Questioning

Li Lie wanted to leave, but Zhang's didn't say anything to stay, and when the people were far away, she sneered with Mama Huang: "Look at how hard his wings are now, he dares to hit me in front of him, and he doesn't even bother to do face-saving work." In the past, even if Li Lie didn't like what she said, he would accept it in person, and he dared to show her face if he didn't agree with her now.

Zhang said in a hurry, causing a coughing sound.

Mama Huang stepped forward to pat her back and persuaded: "Grandpa Guo is older and has his own ideas, you have to relax and be angry with yourself in vain." They all live under one roof, and when the British duchess enters the door, I don't know what will happen! ”

With the second lady's face-loving and strong personality, she foresaw that after Li Lie married his wife, the undercurrent of the Guogong Mansion would surge.

Zhang's face became even worse when she heard this, and she immediately thought of the two women who had been married to Li Lieding.

Don't they all say that Li Lieke's wife, who knows if the third one will be killed?!

Zhang felt that he was too anxious now.

She straightened out the green jade on her waist, and said slowly: "In the past two days, Mama, you have inquired with the people in the Su Mansion, what kind of person is this sixth lady on weekdays, and what are your preferences?" She has seen Jinnian a few times, except for today's extra lively, she is quiet on weekdays, gentle and polite.

Just looking at the face, he is a soft and temperamental.

But it is said that only dogs that don't bark will bite, who knows what kind of person Su Jinnian is behind his back?

Mama Huang jumped on her forehead when she heard this, and said with a smile: "This is going back to Beijing, even if you find out, you can't do anything!" What's more, aren't you planning to go back to Beijing to help Grandpa Guo see each other again? ”

Zhang waved his hand: "It's always good to be prepared." "Who knows if it'll be used in the future?

It suddenly rained in the afternoon, and it was dripping, and it was almost dinner time.

Jin Nian wore a shirt and chose spices with Yingge in the flower hall, which the old lady asked the head of the house to help buy. Two days ago, in Ronghua Hall, Liu's, Xu's and several cousins begged her for incense, and after the Dragon Boat Festival, it was about to be the summer solstice, and the mosquitoes and flies in the house would gradually increase.

When the old lady saw this, she instructed Liu: "These spices are very expensive, and Sister Nian'er's monthly silver is not enough to buy a spice." I think, let Sister Nian make a list for you, and you let the steward go to the spice store and buy it uniformly. Looking at Jin Nian and said, "In the future, the incense used in the house will be handed over to you, and you have to show your hands." ”

Yingge complained while handing the selected sandalwood to Jin Nian: "The old lady is really, how can you make the spices in the entire mansion by yourself, how tiring is this?!" Didn't Miss Wu also learn how to make incense with you last year, Miss wanted to make incense for the house, but she didn't come to help with it, and she also sent Guizhi to designate to add a flavor of wood to her incense. I don't know what bad water she is holding in Ronghua Hall all day. ”

After Su Jintong learned from her two or three times last year, he disliked that making incense was too cumbersome, and complained to the old lady for a few words.

However, Su Jintong hasn't been going out much recently, and Jinnian also feels very surprised. Su Jintong knew that Gu Yanyi had lit a lantern for her, but he didn't reprimand her like before, and even pretended that nothing had happened when they met.

As for Yingge's tiredness in making incense, Jin Nian didn't think there was anything. Hengzhi also likes to make incense, and she feels a sense of accomplishment when she can bake a variety of fragrances.

She smiled and said to Yingge: "I have nothing to do all day, I just happened to make incense to pass the time, and it was not my silver that was spent." ”

Yingge looked up at the sky outside the house, the sky was still overcast, and the rain couldn't stop for two or three days. It's easy

She suggested to Jin Nian: "Wait for the rain to stop and pick it again, even if we make it today, we can't dry it." "It's been picking for most of the day, and she feels a little choked on her nose.

Jin Nian shook his head with a smile: "You can pick spices for a long time, and there are nine processes in the future." Bake it first, and when the rain stops, you can directly set the yarn and dry it. ”

As the master and servant were talking, Mama Lin came in with Guizhi, carrying a vermilion lacquer box in her hand: "Today, the small kitchen made honey pigeons, and the old lady ordered to bring some to you." ”

Jin Nian smiled, if she remembered correctly, in the past twenty days, this is the eighth time that the old lady has sent someone to give her "sweet dates".

Gui Zhi put the suitcase on the desk and saw that Jin Nian was holding a piece of Persian agarwood in her hand, so she asked Jin Nian: "Is this the wooden wood that our girl asked to join?" "There is nothing strange about these woods, how can they give off a good aroma.

"Not really." Jin Nian handed the wooden tree to Gui Zhi to see, and asked Yingge to go down and ask Gong Mama to make some dragon wells before the Ming Dynasty, "I've been bothering Miss Gui Zhi to send me something these days, so I have to drink a cup of tea before leaving." ”

Gui Zhi hurriedly shook his head: "Thank you Miss Sixth for your kindness, our young lady is still waiting for me to go back and pass the meal." "I took the wooden tree and smelled it under my nose, but it didn't smell anything.

Jin Nian smiled: "I know that you are the right hand man by your young lady's side, even if you go back later, can you blame Miss Five?" He got up and pulled over the brocade and motioned for Guizhi to sit down.

Guizhi hesitated a little, but finally sat down.

Jin Nian cleaned her hands in the enamel basin, and saw Mama Gong coming in with a tea tray, Yingge walked behind, and closed the door of the flower hall with her hand.

Jin Nian smiled and sat down in front of Gui Zhi: "How many years has Miss Gui Zhi been serving by the side of Miss Five?" ”

Gui Zhi glanced at the closed door, and then looked at the two grandmothers of Gong and Lin and Yingge who were standing behind Jin Nian, and felt that something was wrong in his heart.

She laughed unnaturally: "It's been eight years. "Looking at the posture of this master and servant, it seems that he wants to torture her? But over the years, even when Miss Fifth bullied Miss Six, she never said a bad word to Miss Six.

Jin Nian smiled slightly, and asked again, "What have the five young ladies been busy with lately?" ”

Her face was still amiable, and Gui Zhi muttered even more in her heart, not understanding what Jin Nian planned to do.

She lowered her head and replied even more cautiously: "I paint every morning and afternoon, accompany the old lady to eat, talk, and nothing else." ”

After the words fell, he got up and said goodbye to Jin Nian to go back to Ronghua Hall: "The old lady also asked me to find the sixth young master to eat pigeon in her room." "Get up and leave.

Jin Nian turned around early and gave Mama Gong a look.

"Offended." Mama Gong stepped forward, and she didn't see how hard she worked, and Gui Zhi obediently sat back on the brocade again.

Gui Zhi was so frightened that her little face turned white, just now when Mama Gong pressed her shoulders with both hands, she seemed to have the strength to suppress her, and she couldn't move, so she had to sit down obediently.

"Six... Miss Six, you... What are you doing here? ”
