、、、、、、、、、、 Pan Rong and Madame Bai did not live in Fang Yuan for long. Just a few days after the Chinese Valentine's Day, the Chuzhou Houfu sent someone to say that Mrs. Chuzhou Hou was unwell, and did not say that she wanted Pan Rong and Mrs. Bai to go back, but that she wanted to take Pan Jing back to comfort her loneliness. Under such circumstances, Pan Rong and Madame Bai had to pack their bags and go back to the city.

Only Mrs. Wang and Jiang Changyang were left in Fangyuan, perhaps because they were used to the daily noise between Pan Jing and Pan Rong, and several of them felt a lot more deserted. At dinner in the evening, Mrs. Wang sighed: "Don't say it, there are many children here who are really much more lively." Every time I see Pan Jing's little pink face, I want to take a bite, but after thinking about it, I am not his own grandmother, and I will be disliked if I bite, so I have to endure it. ”

Jiang Changyang glanced at Peony with a smile.

Peony understood what Mrs. Wang meant, and blushed slightly and buried her head in eating. Anyway, there's no drama this month, and she's inconvenient.

Mrs. Wang accepted it when she saw it, sandwiched a leg of chicken for Peony, and scooped half a bowl of soup: "Eat more, you have lost weight." ”

Peony was already half full, if Mrs. Wang didn't persuade her, she might be able to eat more, but as soon as she saw a thigh of chicken and half a bowl of soup in front of her, she immediately felt full, and she couldn't eat anything. But Mrs. Wang has always been obedient to her, and almost never asked for it. Well, eat the meat first, and then drink the soup to fill in the blanks. She took a breath and was about to clamp the chicken legs, but she saw a pair of chopsticks coming from the oblique stab, and quickly took the chicken legs in front of her.

Peony couldn't help but be overjoyed, and looked at Jiang Changyang with bright eyes.

Jiang Changyang didn't look at her, eating chicken legs in his mouth, and complained to Mrs. Wang: "Mother, you are partial, give her anything delicious." ”

Mrs. Wang glared at him, but she didn't expose his tricks, and only said lightly: "Isn't my good to her just good to you?" ”

As soon as Peony heard this, she quickly lifted the chicken soup, drank it in a few sips, and then looked at Mrs. Wang and smiled flatteringly. Mrs. Wang glanced at her, gently tapped her head, and scolded Jiang Changyang: "It's not pleasing at all." But he didn't persuade Peony to eat again.

In the early morning of the second day, the peony went to the seedling garden after breakfast, and after greeting the plum gardener, he squatted next to the peony flower seedlings planted last autumn to check the growth to see if the transplanting could be successful this autumn.

Da Hei dutifully stayed aside, straightened his legs, put his head on his lap and drooled, and listened to Peony guide Yuhe: "You see, the fertilizer water is very suitable, and it can be transplanted around the Mid-Autumn Festival this year." "Before the seedlings are raised, they have to dig a two-foot-deep ditch here, and then put the soil vertically into the soil and send the soil and the seedlings into the ditch together to pick the seedlings." The large ones were transplanted to the nursery, and the small ones were replanted in the furrows. ”

Yuhe wrote it down carefully, then glanced at the Li gardener who was standing not far away, concentrating on tending to the peony flowers, and whispered: "He promised to teach me how to use a knife last night." ”

"Really?" Peony is very happy for Yuhe, and he is also happy for Li Huayuan, he finally picks a satisfactory apprentice.

Yuhe was a little gloomy: "When he was working recently, he occasionally left Ah Shun and Man to watch from the sidelines, and I guess he still dislikes me a little." After I have passed with you, it will only be those two people who will officially receive it. ”

Peony patted her hand: "It's okay, you have me." ”

Yuhe said a little sadly: "Yes, thanks to you." ”

Peony had long wanted to ask her how she was doing during this time and how she was going, and what she was going to do, but she never had a chance to speak, but now she saw that the opportunity was just right, so she said: "The last time we came, Aunt Feng asked someone to let you go back to Xuanpingfang in a few days." ”

"Got it. But Fang Yuan is busy. Yuhe's movements suddenly stopped. Aunt Feng had already told her a few times, and the Tao was to give her a good look at her family affairs, and she decided as soon as possible, and in the future, Peony would also be promoted to her housekeeper. But her heart is full of that person, how can she be willing to marry someone else?

Peony didn't want to go back when she heard this, so she said, "Do you remember the time I quarreled with my cousin last fall? At that time, she bluntly rejected Li Xun.

Yuhe was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "Remember." ”

"Just remember. Since you can't let it go, you have to fight for it, whether you are dead or alive and see the truth early, what's the use of dragging it out like this? Peony said in a low voice, "If you think about it, tell me, and I'll ask him." ”

If he refused, wouldn't it be embarrassing to meet again in the future? Watching from afar, he doesn't know anything, maybe better...... Yuhe was hesitating, and suddenly saw Gui coming in from outside with a smile, saluting towards Peony, and said with a smile: "Mother, there is a visitor outside." It was Lu Wulang and a black-skinned female guest, and a male guest from Hangzhou. He said that he had made an appointment with you earlier. See? ”

"See, why not? You can come with the rain lotus. Peony hurried out. There is no need to ask, it must be Aunt Duan and the Hangzhou rich who asked Aunt Duan to find a famous peony and a good florist that day.

When I arrived at the main hall, I didn't see any guests, and I thought it was strange, and suddenly I saw Ah Tao coming over and said with a smile: "Lang Jun happened to see it, and I heard that he came to see the flowers, so he took it to see the flowers first." At this time, it is about near the Half Moon Pavilion. ”

Walking to the vicinity of the Half Moon Pavilion, I saw Jiang Changyang, Lu Wulang and others standing in front of a golden waist building, and were describing the scene when the golden waist building was in full bloom: "The color is pink, yellow between, the petals overlap like a building, the corolla can reach a foot, there are more than eight petals, it is very beautiful, and it is rare, my family only has this one." I heard that there is also a jade waist building, a red waist building, but unfortunately I can't see it. ”

I heard the man wearing a brown round-necked robe and a crotch robe next to Aunt Duan say in a skillful official dialect: "Dare to ask Lang Jun, how much is this golden waist building worth?" ”

Jiang Changyang said with some embarrassment: "I don't know this detail, so I have to ask Clumsy Jing." But I remember that she was very happy when she got this flower, and she may not have found it even if she spent money. ”

Peony couldn't help but smile, it turned out that Jiang Changyang could also help her in business. This golden waist building was originally He Peony's dowry, and I heard that it was passed on from the palace, which is very rare and rare. He knew that she was very happy when she got it, with a nose and eyes.

The wealthy businessman in Hangzhou didn't ask more, but squatted down and looked up and down at the golden waist building, first looked at the root sprouting tiller branches, and then looked at the branches and leaves, but seemed to be a knowledgeable person, looked at the rest before standing up, and said: "Jade waist building, in fact, the flower type is the same as this, that is, the color is white." ”

"Dare to ask the guests if they have seen it?" Peony walked over slowly, greeted everyone one by one, and looked at the Hangzhou guest. At first glance, I couldn't help but be a little surprised, Duan Damiang's old friend was so young? This Hangzhou guest is only of medium stature, about seventeen or eighteen years old, although the clothes and ornaments are exquisite, but the face is full of wind and frost, the beard covers half of the face, the bridge of the nose is high, and a pair of narrow and bright eyes are full of the shrewdness of a businessman.

Lu Wulang hadn't seen the peony for a long time, but now he saw that she had faded away from her youth, and she had added a lot of charm compared to when she was last year, and her whole body was blooming with the delicacy of youth and young woman, and she couldn't help but take her eyes off. I remembered the etiquette, and I didn't dare to look at it anymore when I lowered my eyes.

Probably because the beauties of Suzhou and Hangzhou are like clouds, it is not strange for Hangzhou guests to see them, and when they see the peony, they just blink slightly, and they dare to look directly at the peony and smile calmly: "In Xia Bucai, there is a jade waist building at home, and the old mother has always wanted to find another gold waist building to make a hall full of gold and jade." Over the years, I have never seen it in the north and south of the river, but I heard that only in the palace has it, so I came to a luck, which Cheng thought that it was really lucky, and I met it. ”

Peony shook his head and smiled: "This golden waist building is my dowry, not for sale." ”

"My jade waist building, when I was in Hangzhou, a flower was worth 10,000 dollars. This golden waist building is not cheap to come by. The man smiled faintly and looked around: "Let's look at the other flowers first." ”

How much is a flower worth 10,000? This is a deliberate bait, this person is not easy to fool. Peony whispered to Jiang Changyang: "If you are not interested, you don't have to accompany you, just do your thing?" ”

Jiang Changyang smiled: "I'll accompany you." Yan said a salute to the Hangzhou merchant: "I haven't asked the guest for his name." Under the surname Jiang, the name is long, and the words become the wind. ”

The man smiled and replied: "It's negligence under the next, the surname is Jin, the name is silent, and the words are silent." ”

It's such a weird name, and it sounds infinitely gloomy. Whose family named the child, it was like this. Peony muttered to herself, and led forward: "Guests, please go this way." At present, I also have flowers in this garden, and there are dozens of famous peonies among them......"

Jin Wuyan listened intently, and every time he went, he would stop and ask in detail for a long time, not only interested in peony flowers, but also interested in stones. Unexpectedly, the origin and value of the stone are all explained, showing the true nature of shrewdness.

In this way, I stopped and walked until noon, and I had not completely swam the whole garden and saw all the peony flowers. Peony felt that his feet hurt, and he was hungry, but Jin Wuyan was still elated, looking completely tired.

Jiang Changyang said: "It's almost noon at this time, why don't the guests have some food together, rest and see again?" ”

Mrs. Duan is fat, and she has been on the boat all the year round, so she has long been tired, and she was overjoyed when she heard this, and she agreed repeatedly. Jin Wuyan smiled: "The guest is as good as the host." ”

The group sat in the grass pavilion, and Peony went to arrange the meal, because he didn't know what Jin Wuyan and Duan Damiang's hobbies were, so he first asked the little girl they were traveling with, and then went to discuss with Zhou Banniang. Zhou Banniang said: "Since I am from Jiangnan, I love to eat fish, shrimp and crabs, but I am tired of eating too much if I want to." It's better to make some of our light home-cooked dishes, add a soft snow dragon, a dried carp, and the rice will come out with good fragrant japonica and good raw stew, and keep them as they like. ”

Peony was very satisfied with what he heard, and told him to take good wine and utensils, and place them properly before he went to accompany the guests. When Mrs. Duan heard that Mrs. Wang was there, she offered to go and see her, and after examining the relationship between Qin Niang and King Jing, Peony looked at Jiang Changyang inquiringly, and Jiang Changyang nodded slightly. Peony then led Aunt Duan over.
