Chapter 239: Orange Cake

"Why is my sister so merciful to this Liu this time?" Song Tian finally couldn't hold back the carriage on the return trip and asked.

Song Zhi was silent for a while, and said: "When I saw her, I remembered that when I was a child, I took a nap in my mother's room, and when I was half-asleep, I heard her mocking a woman's makeup through the screen. Because I didn't see my face, I don't know who my mother is talking about, I talked to Liu close today, and I remembered this incident in a trance, thinking that the woman who was ridiculed by my mother at that time should be Liu. ”

Song Tian also found that when the Lin family faced people whose status was inferior to her, the arrogant and arrogant side often surfaced, but most of the people who interacted with the Song Mansion were relatives and friends, and there were occasionally some lowly people, which was also for a reason.

For example, Liu's husband, in the past, Liu's husband had a bit of ancestral friendship with the Lin Mansion, and Liu's and Lin's were of the same age, and they often had a correspondence during the New Year's holidays.

I just didn't know that the way Liu and Lin got along would be so mean.

Although it is mean, it is also very common, and safflower always needs green leaves to set off.

Even a person with a mediocre appearance like Liu, the appearance of the maids around her is even worse than her.

"Send someone to explain this matter to Liu's husband, and as for what he will do, you don't have to care. There are some things that we don't have to get involved in too much, just leave them to others. Song Zhi pursed his lips and said, "Today's affairs, we really take care of it a little more, and we should have handled it by ourselves." ”

Song Zhi said this gently, but Song Tian felt a little uncomfortable when he heard it, like a tiny thorn pierced into his fingertips, although it didn't hurt much, but it was very itchy.

She let out a vague 'um', got off the carriage of the palace, refused Song Zhi's invitation, and went straight to the carriage of the Song mansion to go back to the mansion.

Song Zhi stood at the door and watched the carriage of the Song Mansion leave from afar, until Meteor whispered and said, "Madam, let's go in." ”

Song Zhi didn't speak, just crossed the high threshold, her expression remained unchanged, but there seemed to be some sadness between her eyebrows, as if she was about to lose or had lost something.

"Shooting stars." Song Zhi returned to the courtyard, sat at the desk and suddenly spoke.

Meteor was making sencha, the water was boiling, she quickly picked up the small pot, poured the first brew of waste tea into the bucket, and raised her eyes to look at Song Zhi, "Madam, what's wrong?" ”

"You say, are there also deep and shallow relationships between relatives?" Song Zhi asked, while playing with a pair of exquisite hollow finch balls that Song Tian gave her on her birthday last year.

Although Meteor didn't know why Song Zhi felt this way, he also thought about Song Zhi's words and said, "It should be." ”

Song Zhi didn't expect Meteor to answer like this, and said, "Why do you say that? ”

Meteor is a rectum, and said: "It is said that dragons give birth to nine sons, and the nine sons are different. Even if it's a brother or sister, there are people who don't have a deed, which is normal. ”

"Then do you think that my biological brothers and sisters are not very similar?" Song Zhi already had the answer in his heart, but he also wanted to hear the opinion of the meteor.

Meteor brought a cup of fried tea to Song Zhi, looked at her in embarrassment, and said, "Madam really wants me to say?" ”

"What's the difference between you and me? Let's talk about it. Song Zhi took a sip of tea, the tea was slightly bitter, which made people sober.

"The fifth young master has just been born, so naturally he can't see anything. Du Wei and his wife are the most deed, although their temperaments are not very similar, but they are also open-minded people, that is, Mrs. is married, but the relationship between the two of you is not so easy to be estranged. When Meteor talked about Song Ling, Song Zhi's eyes lit up and darkened.

Meteor raised her eyebrows slightly, and continued: "Fourth Miss, when I was a child, I was closer to my wife, but the girl's family has her own thoughts, if you can't think of going anywhere with your wife, you don't have to worry too much about it." Each person has his own fate, doesn't he? ”

Song Zhi held Meteor's hand and said, "Meteor knows my heart best." ”

Meteor looked at this ignorant and reckless, and only by figuring out Song Zhi's emotions in his heart and liver could he see it so clearly.

"I'll pick up Ru'er tomorrow and come to the house to live for a few days, and you will go in person." Song Zhi didn't remember this Confucian child for a moment, and when he heard Shen Baiyan say that Song Ling didn't leave any of the official affairs at hand, he wanted to go back and forth to the house, and he was all stuck in the study, and he didn't have the energy to take care of Confucian.

Meteor nodded and said, "The slave knows that she must bring orange cakes to pick up the little boy." ”

The orange cake is made of lime wrapped in gauze to grind out the juice, then mixed with honey and glutinous rice flour, kneaded into a ball, stuffed into a mold and steamed.

The original mold was just a square circle, and the peony pattern was carved inside. Later, because Ru'er liked this pastry, Rosin specially asked the craftsmen in the house to make molds in the shape of cat faces and rabbits, and the steamed pastries were extremely delicious and cute and playful.

Meteor will go to pick up Ru'er to come to the palace after lunch on the second day, the amount of lime and honey in this pastry is delicate and delicate, rosin is not at ease to hand over to others to do, and to make lunch, busy and around, fortunately, the orange cake is steamed, it can be put into the food box in Meteor's hand.

Orange Cake staggered into the carriage with the meteor, and then got out of the carriage with the meteor, all the way through the winding corridor of the inner courtyard, the food box was opened, and a little bit of damp heat hit the face of a pale little boy.

"It's still hot." Ru'er reached out and pinched a piece of orange cake and put it in her mouth.

Obviously it was a very simple action, but Meteor saw that Mother Jin who was waiting beside Ru'er wet her eyes, Mother Jin was Zeng Yunyi's nursing mother, and now that Zeng Yunyi is gone, it is natural for her to serve by Ru'er's side.

"Girl, it's wonderful." Mother Jin pulled the meteor aside and said softly, "Little Master, this is the first time to take something to eat by yourself." ”

Meteor comforted: "Mom, don't worry, the princess asked me to take the little master to live for a few days, you can pack some things for the little master, and go together." ”

Mother Jin rubbed her yellowed eyes with a handkerchief, nodded again and again, and said, "Okay, I'll go now." ”

As soon as she went out, she stood at the door, and Meteor turned around and saw Rouyi holding her son and trying to enter the door. The Lin family has a new son, how can he care about his grandson? Zeng Yunyi went again, and the child naturally returned to the soft clothes.

"Why is my aunt here?" Mother Jin blocked the door, making it clear that she didn't want to call Rouyi in.

"I brought the tiger head to see my brother, don't you even allow this?" Rou Yi carefully drew her eyebrows and hooked her lips, which looked a little more imposing, which couldn't scare the meteor.

Meteor coughed and said, "It's unfortunate that my aunt is here, the princess asked me to pick up the little prince to live in the palace, and now I am leaving." ”

Seeing that it was a meteor who spoke, Rouyi hurriedly smiled a little and said, "What does the princess mean?" The princess really felt sorry for her nephews. ”

Song Zhi clearly only needs to take Ru'er to live for a few days, and Rouyi has to say 'nephews'! Mother Jin was angry and said, "The little boy is about to leave!" Auntie, let's take the second son back to the room! Wait for the next move, it's not good to have a collision. ”

"What's the collision?" Rouyi squeezed in from the side of Mother Jin with the child in her arms, and Mother Jin was afraid of hurting the child, so she didn't dare to stop it too seriously.

"I'll just sit here, so that the two brothers can be close to each other." Rou Yi actually sat down on the chair next to Ru'er and looked at Ru'er with a smile.

Mother Jin's face was extremely ugly, as if someone had forcibly fed her a mouthful of rancid water.

Meteor also felt that Rouyi's style was too presumptuous, she opened her mouth, and was about to speak, but she heard a childish child's voice sound, "Brother stays, you go out." ”

Everyone was stunned, Rouyi's hand holding the child involuntarily tightened, looking at Ru'er's child's face, a little unable to believe that the words he had just heard came from the child's mouth, and muttered, "What did the eldest brother say?" ”

"You said that you brought your brother to see me, then your brother is here, you go out." Ru'er said Fang Cai's words more carefully, his eyes were clear, and his speech was clear.

For the first time since Mother Jin went, she felt that she had found her backbone, her waist involuntarily straightened up, and her voice became louder, "Huh! Didn't you hear what my brother said? What do you think you are the right master? Aunt one, I'm phew! Either leave your brother and let the two brothers get close, and if you are worried about what kind of treatment your brother has suffered here, you will take your brother away! ”

Rouyi originally heard that Meteor was coming to visit Ru'er, and wanted to bring her son to show up, telling the princess not to be so partial, what a good thing and good thing to do, but also to remember that she has two nephews!

never thought that she would be pushed back by Ru'er, making her lose face and return to her original form.

Although Zeng Yunyi went, Ru'er was a descendant after all, and he had the entire Zeng Mansion to back him up, and even Song Zhi seemed to be particularly partial to him.

Seeing Rouyi holding the child and leaving, Mother Jin burst into tears, half-knelt beside Ru'er, and cried: "Brother, my good brother, you are a tough one, you have to remember, you are the most noble, you are the most outstanding child of your mother and father." ”

Ru'er lowered her head and looked at Mother Jin, patted Mother Jin's shoulder like a little adult, and said, "I know." Mom go take care of things. ”

Mother Jin wiped away her tears and whispered a good word.

Meteor watched all this, and only felt as if he had seen the refining process of a good knife.

After all, she is a subordinate, and it is not easy to speak, but she just cleaned up the excess orange cake for Ru'er, and planned to bring it back, but she heard Ru'er say: "Stay." This is not sweet, for daddy. ”

Although the orange cake is mixed with honey, it is still not sweet in general, and the aftertaste is sour.

Meteor looked at the pale yellow rabbit in the dish and nodded.
