In the early morning, the glow of the morning glow sneaks in through the curtains woven by the brocade, bringing a touch of warmth and brightness to the quiet room. A long red light, through the still gloomy sky, obliquely onto the soft quilt, gently kissed a white jade leg that inadvertently slipped out of the quilt, flashing dazzling red and pink, is a natural beauty.

The pillow of snow-white tea leaves exudes a fragrance, and the black hair is scattered, Xiaoru hugs the quilt, rubbing for a long time, and finally finds that the arms are empty, and the person who made people hot last night and couldn't feel the cold of late autumn is gone.

Feeling a lot less sleepy all of a sudden, Xiaoru frowned, opened her hazy sleepy eyes, got up from the bed, and scratched her head full of green silk.

"Young lady, are you up?"

Monier took a new maid named Laneige and neatly helped the confused Xiaoru get dressed, "The young lady slept late last night, and she should actually rest more today......" Menier muttered while wring the towel, lightly cleaned Xiaoru's face, and carefully took a comb to help her comb her long, no split ends hair.

"The young lady's hair is so good." Meng Nier enviously touched the black and dense, shiny and silky green silk, neatly combed a peach bun, picked the lotus hairpin specially carved by Lou Yi for Xiaoru, and took a newly beaten gold skein lantern hairpin and inserted it.

After grooming and dressing up, Xiaoyan has prepared breakfast, which is not as particular as the big families in this era, and the family still adheres to the previous breakfast habits, which are very simple, clear porridge, fried eggs, pancakes, and cold lettuce...... It's both appetizing and healthy.

Xiaoru went to greet her mother-in-law first, and then helped her mother-in-law to the dining room, and was surprised to see that the food on the tray on the table had not moved at all: "What about Brother Xiaolou and Brother Ding?" Did they eat it? ”

These days, every time I eat, Brother Xiaolou and Ding Feng are the most active, Ding Feng's guy is always early in the morning, and he comes to the door before dawn in order to have breakfast, but he doesn't have time, and he also wants Brother Xiaolou to help him take it.

At the beginning, Brother Xiaolou and Ding Feng waited for Xiaoru and her mother-in-law to get up, and then said hello before eating, and later Xiaoru saw that the two of them were 'too positive', which made her mother-in-law worry that her son would be hungry, and she had to get up early in the morning, and her spirit was not very good, so she told Brother Xiaolou that Ding Feng was not an outsider anyway, and it didn't matter if the family ate, the rules were exempted, they had to get up early to practice, and they could use it first, so as not to make their mother-in-law uncomfortable.

Lou Yi is in the middle, the family's 'biological clock' is not the same, the two young men are used to getting up before dawn to practice, on errands, although Xiaoru and her mother-in-law are not late, but they are also nearly an hour at night than the two of them, since the family lives together, then get used to this kind of thing, naturally have to accommodate each other.

Ding Feng felt that the master's family hadn't eaten yet, so he ate it first, which was not very in line with the rules, but he was robbed by Brother Xiaolou for a few words, and he left it behind, speaking of which, when they walked the rivers and lakes, there were not so many rules, in their own home, they didn't need to be careful about everything, as long as they went out to pay attention.

Now, the Lou family, plus Ding Feng, have two meals in the morning, from the master to the subordinates, they are all accustomed to nature, and now at a glance, seeing the food of Lou Yi's brothers and sisters on the table, it seems that they are cold, no wonder Xiaoru is surprised.

"Young Madam Hui, the young master and Young Master Ding have something to discuss, and now they are in the study, and they haven't come out yet." Xiaoyan hurriedly helped Xiaoru sit down, and Meng Nier also came over to help set up the meal.

Xiaoru listened, only when they had important business, they didn't care much, and only told Xiaoyan to remove the cold food, let the kitchen on the fire, and make sure that the two young masters had a hot meal.

At the dinner table, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law also ignored the rules of eating and sleeping, and said a few words about the topic of family expenses, the old lady meant, the family brought from Wuchang, redundant, useless items to sell, taking advantage of the recent earthquake, the low price is relatively low, get the money to buy more land, the old man, or quite value the cultivated land.

Xiaoru thought about the suitability, in such an era, there is really nothing more comfortable than being a landlord's wife, besides, those seeds from Zheng Yuan must be planted in more land. So he nodded in response, but he was not in a hurry, he had to let the housekeeper go out to inquire about the market first, that is, if he wanted to buy land, he had to look at it and then buy it, in case people were deceived, it would be a shame.

Xiaoru also mentioned that she wanted to open the hospital again after a while, because she planned to invite a doctor to sit in the hall, and she was not easy to go to the doctor, and her mother-in-law did not object, and the old lady of the Lou family probably felt that her daughter-in-law's medical skills were so high, and it would be a pity if she was completely buried.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were eating, and it suddenly began to rain outside.

Mrs. Lou raised her head and said with a smile: "An autumn rain and a cold, we should get dressed, especially Brother Lou, his body is not neat now, he was just injured a few days ago, you have to take care of it, Ding Feng's child's clothes are also ready, you can't rely on being young and careless, and when you get old and fall sick, you will know what it is...... And the old man, you also remember to remind ......"

Xiao Ru secretly bared her teeth, Gongsun Zhi is the old man who knows how to live and knows how to maintain health, where can he remind himself, as for Ding Feng and Lou Yi, they have been taken care of well all these years...... However, Ding Feng can't take care of it himself, Lou Yi's affairs are really up to him now, well, send Meng Nier to the sewing room to see if the autumn clothes at home are ready...... Even the clothes of the people under them have to be changed......

Xiaoru took a sip of hot porridge and squinted her eyes comfortably, today's days are really much better, when it was difficult to make clothes in the past, it was their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who stayed up late and slowly drove out, they were always very busy during the day, they could only work at night, and they were reluctant to waste lamp oil, the two of them had a small lamp, and they did it for half a night, in addition to making their own, they also made a lot of finished leather clothes and leather robes, and took them out for sale, just to make a little more money than the monopoly on leather goods, Xiaoru was afraid of the recurrence of her mother-in-law's eye disease, and she was always unwilling to let her do it for a long time. can only try to make her craft more proficient, speaking of which, she can learn the skills that ancient women should learn so quickly, and she was really forced out by the environment.

"I remember when I used to do my work at night, my daughter-in-law, you were always worried that you would burn your own hair."

"Is there one?" Xiaoru smiled, for this, she didn't remember much, perhaps, her little gesture at that time, in the eyes of her mother-in-law, was also very cute, otherwise how could it still be remembered in her heart after so many years.

"Why not." Mrs. Lou drank the last mouthful of porridge and asked the new girl named Shannier next to her to rinse her mouth with water, "Hey, although there is a needlework room at home now, I still think that the clothes made by our mother and mother are warmer and more comfortable to wear." ”

Xiaoru nodded, and secretly decided to step up a little more time in the past few nights to get her mother's autumn clothes out, and she stayed up in the middle of the night yesterday, and she was almost done.

As soon as the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law finished eating, before they got off the table, they heard a faint murmuring noise outside.

Xiao Ru was stunned - "Xiaoyan, go see what's going on?" ”

After a while, Xiaoyan entered the room with a stunned face and said, "Old lady, young lady, young master is in the study...... said yes, said that the girl named Xiaoyu eavesdropped on the two young masters...... Xiao Yu and Yun Xing, who was in charge of the flowers and trees, were kneeling in the courtyard......"
