Chapter 3: Peony Blossoms (3)

"Go and call someone in." Mo Zi recalled that Qiu Sanniang was already dressed.

Mo Zi opened the curtains, waited for Qiu Sanniang to walk to the couch in the outhouse and sat down, and then stopped under the porch at the door, not high or low, "Mother An, the girl is invited." ”

I saw Mrs. An walking through the small courtyard, smiling so much that her eyes were sewn into threads.

Mo Zi saw it in his eyes, and said in his heart, laugh, laugh, let's see who has the last laugh.

"Mother An, what kind of tea do you want to drink?" A faint smile appeared on her face, "I'll soak it for you." ”

"Mo Zi, don't work you. I'm just here to pass on my wife's words, and I'll leave when I'm done. "Probably in Sanniang's courtyard, only this girl is decent, Mrs. An sighed softly, "This mouth is sweet, and it is strange and flattering." ”

Mo Zi didn't answer the stubble, and helped lift the curtain, "Mother An, please come inside." "If you don't like it, you have to give a good face, otherwise how can she find out the news ahead?

"Hello three girls." Mrs. An blessed her body, secretly smelled the incense in the house, peeked at the furnishings on the couch, and memorized it silently.

Qiu Sanniang slowly buckled the tea lid and sighed, "No need to be polite." What did Mother tell you to preach? ”

"Did the girl hear it all?" An Pozi made a gesture and snorted, "Look at my voice, don't startle the girl." ”

"I'm shocked, I should let the girls hit me, can you hurt yourself?" Although Qiu Sanniang is the third in line, the first two sisters died early, so they are the real eldest lady of the Qiu family.

Even though Mrs. An has the support of her wife, she also knows the difference between master and servant, and she curses in her heart, but she admits her mistake repeatedly, and says her intention again, "Mrs. will hold a banquet in Hongchun Pavilion tonight to entertain distinguished guests, and invite the girl to dress up to attend." ”

"Where do you come from?" It's lazy to ask, but it's not unanswered.

"Shangdu respects the prince's aunt and wife Wei, and the love that grew up with his wife. Her old lady passed away, and she came back to give her a ride. Because his wife often praises the girls' temperament and appearance in letters, she wants to take this opportunity to meet each other. An Pozi was careful in her wording.

"Such a noble character, to be able to see each other, is a blessing for our younger generation." Shangdu Jing Wangfu? Could it be that there really is such a good thing?

Ink purple eyes look at the nose, nose looks at the heart.

"That's natural. The third girl is the eldest lady of our Qiu Mansion, the appearance of the fairy, and the temperament is not to be picked, and she will definitely be able to please the nobles. Although she is an aunt's wife, she gets along with Princess Jing like a sister, and she often follows and serves back and forth, and knows many noble ladies in Shangdu. Mrs. An said that it was almost here, "Third girl, it's not too early, you hurry up and prepare." The old woman has to go back to his wife. ”

"Mo Zi, send it for me." The tea didn't move, and Qiu Sanniang squinted at Mo Zi.

"Mother An, I'll send you out." Mo Zi didn't know that Qiu Sanniang wanted to let herself talk again.

The two of them walked out of the hall one after the other.

"Mother An, you take this." Mo Zi took out three coins of silver from her sleeve pocket, "I've been waiting for you for a long time, and the girl can't help it." ”

An Pozi pretended to push, and finally smiled and put it into the sachet bag, "Don't say anything else, the third girl is the most generous to our subordinates." ”

Who doesn't know how to sing? Mo Zi looked at it indifferently, "Listen to my mother, does that aunt want to choose one of the young ladies in our Qiu Mansion?" ”

"But no, I don't know who has this blessing?" An Pozi's eyes opened when she saw the money, and it was not something that could not be said. Each room knows it.

"Whose family are you helping to kiss?" Shangdu? Somewhat far away.

"Who else can I help? Of course, it is the young master in the palace of King Jing. That's why I say it's a blessing. "Po An doesn't look at the monk's face, but looks at the money face.

Mo Zi stuffed another five coins of silver, "Which master?" ”

This time, Mrs. An didn't push it anymore, and put it away directly, "Mo Zi, if you change someone else in this courtyard, and give me silver, I won't say a word more." ”

"Mom, kindness is reciprocated. If my girl marries well, she will definitely give you a big red envelope. Mo Zi thought to herself, if you love money, you should love money, and there is no shame.

"Third Master." When An Pozi saw the green chrysanthemum, she lowered her voice.

"Hukou?" Mo Zi asked one last question.

"Born from Princess Jing's belly, how can it be a concubine?" After Mrs. An finished speaking, she arrived at the gate of the courtyard.

"Mother Ann is leaving, Mo Zi is not far away." Mo Zi stood still, slim and elegant.

Mrs. An heard the bolt behind her, and when she turned around, she was a little annoyed, "This girl is a capable person." He slapped himself in the mouth, intending not to say a word in front of his wife about the news she had leaked.

Besides, Mo Zi went back to the house and saw Qiu Sanniang opening a notebook at the table.

"How?" Qiu Sanniang asked.

"That aunt is here to meet and choose someone for her third young master." Mo Zi stepped forward, grabbed his sleeves and raised his wrists, and studied ink.

"Hukou?" Qiu Sanniang also asked.

"Girl, I asked the same question, but it can be said that I am a concubine." Mo Zi soaked the pen and handed it over.

"Son-in-law?" Qiu Sanniang smiled coldly, the words in her pen were strong, and she owed the woman's gentleness, "Why did the third young master from the prince's mansion marry a young lady from a merchant family, and come all the way to us?" Most likely, either this person has a problem, or this house has a problem. ”

Since ancient times, business has been cheap. Even if you are rich in the world, if there is no official in the family, you are still inferior.

The Qiu family, the last three generations have donated six petty officials, and when it came to Qiu Sanniang's ancestors, the imperial court canceled the donation system, and there has never been an official. Qiu Si and Qiu Wu are all gentlemen, and reading and taking scientific exams are like climbing to the sky.

Whether these two can keep the Qiu family's hundred-year-old family business is not something that Mo Zi cares about. Qiu Sanniang is a woman, and she always has to get married. If you marry and follow the surname of another family, you are a member of another family. And she plans to follow Qiu Sanniang temporarily, of course, Qiu Sanniang is good, she is good.

"King Jing's Mansion is not an ordinary portal, if you spend time inquiring, there will be clues to follow." Mo Zi is not in a hurry.

Qiu Sanniang never practiced more than half a page, put down the pen, frowned and shook her sleeves, "Bai listened to your words, Baba changed into this set of clothes, and felt hot and stuffy when he sat down." ”

"Do you want to go to Jiu Niang's place to sit? A few days ago, she mentioned the girl's purple wood butterfly hairpin? No, I carved another one, and I just took it to her. "The ninth girl is ten years old and is the daughter-in-law of my wife.

Mo Zi is smart, and Qiu Sanniang is also an understanding person, so she pursed her lips and smiled immediately, "Take it for me to see." ”

Mo Zi left the house and came back in less than half an hour, putting the newly made hairpin on the desk.

Qiu Sanniang took a closer look and couldn't help but praise, "This butterfly looks like it's about to fly out." Look at this craft, it is getting better and better day by day, and I will not save you in vain. ”

Mo Zi lowered his eyes and smiled shallowly, not arrogant at all.

Prior to the crossing, she was a ship engineer in the Navy, designing a variety of warships and submarines. However, this talent is not used in Qiu Mansion. As for the craft of carpentry, it should have been learned after coming to this era. She didn't remember who she learned from or what realm she learned. It's just that as soon as I hold the carving tool in my left hand, I can't be idle. Her right hand has one more ability than ordinary women - abacus, which she learned from her mother, who was an accountant in high school, and can play seven, seven, eight, eight.

Therefore, Mo Zi is not left-handed, nor right-handed, but dexterous as his left and right hands.

Qiu Sanniang jokingly said that she saved one and got a pair.
