Chapter Thirty-Nine: Living Color
I waited in the pavilion for a while, but I didn't wait for Mama Bai, but I saw a girl named Cui'er.
Cui'er followed two inferior girls, walked through the water pavilion, curled Nana, approached the pavilion, stopped, and stared at Ning Yan as if she were an enemy.
Because you didn't eat squid, you hold a grudge? Of course, this can't be the case, Ning Yan guessed the reason for Cui'er's white eyes.
"Ning Niangzi, my grandmother is invited."
"Where's Mama Bai?" For Cui'er's invitation, Ning Yan was a little foggy, she was brought by Mama Bai, even if she saw the master of this house, she should be Mama Bai's person coming.
Cui'er in front of her knew at a glance that she was not on the same path as Mama Bai.
"Sure enough, it's a small family, and Mama Bai is waiting for Mrs. Bai to have time to pay attention to you, and she doesn't keep up."
"......" Ning Yan never knew that a girl was so confident.
"I'm sorry, there was something at home suddenly, I'll go back first."
After Ning Yan finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.
Cui'er was dumbfounded, since she became the second wife's eldest girl, she had never been slapped like this.
"Not going? You are not afraid of your wife's reproach. ”
"......" Ning Yan turned around and glanced at Cui'er with pity, such an IQ can still be a big girl, that second grandmother is also a fool!
was despised by Ning Yan, and Cui'er was even more annoyed: "You stop for me." ”
"......" Ning Yan pretended not to hear and continued to walk outside.
Cui'er panicked at this moment, grandma just asked her to summon a person, she didn't even do it, just now Mama Bai had already sued her, if she forced the woman in front of her away, she was afraid that she would be demoted to a second-class girl.
"Ning Niangzi, wait a minute...... "Afraid that Ning Yan would really leave, Cui'er pushed away the two maids who were like wood beside her, got up and ran in front of Ning Yan.
Ning Yan didn't speak, his eyes fell on Cui'er, waiting for Cui'er to speak.
"Ning Niangzi stayed, just now the maid was wrong, the maid apologized to you, the maid was also in a hurry, she didn't control her temper, grandma and Mama Bai are waiting, you don't want Mama Bai to be a bad person, right."
Ning Yan didn't speak, and continued to stare at Cui'er.
"......" Cui'er's face turned green, sure enough, the country woman didn't know how to advance or retreat, she had already apologized, what else did she think, anyway, the kitchen was already good at making squid, if this woman didn't know how to advance or retreat......
"Let's go!" Seeing that Cui'er was about to explode, Ning Yan spoke lightly.
Cui'er breathed a sigh of relief and led two stake-like girls to lead Ning Yan's way.
Baifu occupies a small area, but the pavilions, rockery and water pavilions are all complete, it is summer, the lotus flowers in the pond are blooming just right, and willow trees are planted next to the pond.
The breeze blew, and the lotus fragrance bursted.
Walking through the lotus pond and walking on the verandah, from time to time there are girls passing by who nod to Cui'er.
……
Continue to walk, for nearly a quarter of an hour, through the three hanging flower doors, into the flower hall, Ning Yan finally saw the shadow of Mama Bai.
Mama Bai stood beside the chaise longue, waiting for the woman on the couch to eat peaches, peeling off the skin of the peaches, holding a silver knife, cutting off the flesh of the peaches and putting them on the plate, and then picking them up with a silver fork and sending them to the mouth of the woman on the couch.
"Madam, Mrs. Ning is here." Cui'er walked ahead, said a word, and automatically retreated behind the crooked woman on the chaise longita.
The woman waved her hand, and Mama Bai took back the plate.
The woman put away the clothes that fell on her shoulders, and sat up right at the same time, the woman's appearance is not the best, but the cherry lips and apricot eyes and willow eyebrows are just right everywhere, the body is rich but not fat, half of the crisp chest is exposed, and there is a peony on the head.
If you have to use one word to describe the woman in front of her, all Ning Yan can think of is the vivid color, and every move is temptation.
It is said that the second wife came from Quanzhou, and Fujian is a place to raise people.
"Second wife."
"Ning Niangzi sit, how to eat squid has already been said, if you can bring the business of the restaurant back to life, I really want to thank you."
"I can't deserve it, but I have contacts and contacts, and Mama Bai has also helped me a lot a few times before."
"You're an interesting person, if others see me and can't even speak neatly, you can still remind me that I have a relationship, say, what are the requirements."
"The second wife is also a smart person." Ning Yan said.
Hearing Ning Yan's words, Mama Bai was startled, she really didn't expect Ning Yan to be so straightforward when facing the second wife.
If the blame is down, the handkerchief in Mama Bai's hand is about to be torn, and if the second wife is to blame, she has nothing to do.
"Sure enough, no wonder you can hunt wolves down from the mountains." The second wife smiled coquettishly and beckoned to Ning Yan.
Ning Yan walked over.
The second wife took off the jade bracelet she was carrying on her wrist, put it on Ning Yan's wrist, and opened and closed her red lips: "This thing was given to me by the master back then, you take it, and when the Bai family sees it in the future, they will give a few thin noodles, and that's all I can help." ”
Does "......" mean that when you go out in the future, you roll up your sleeves from time to time to show others?
Also Is it convenient to fight with a jade bracelet?
Waiting for Ning Yan to thank her, and after waiting for a while and not getting what she expected, the second wife was really surprised. The bracelet she gave out was not cheap, and if it was put in a pawnshop to die, it would be at least three hundred taels of silver.
"Then, if Madame needs any help in the future, you can go to Gouziwan in the east of the county town to find me."
"Okay."
As soon as Ning Yan left, Cui'er couldn't help but walk in front of the second wife: "This Ning Yan is too much!" What can't we do in a huge white mansion, with her help, I don't know what to do. ”
Mama Bai had the heart to help Ning Yan say something, but after thinking about it carefully, she didn't know what to say.
Others don't know the price of the bracelet given by his wife, she knows. It stands to reason that my wife shouldn't have given away such a valuable thing.
Mrs. does things, and these subordinates are becoming more and more incomprehensible.
"You guys, when you're fine, ask about things outside, do you think it's really that simple to be able to hunt wild wolves, catch roe deer, and make strange things delicious?"
"It's hard to see if there's anything that isn't easy." Cui'er asked directly.
"What do you say?"
"I don't know."
"It's not that you don't know, if you knew, you wouldn't be just a maid."
The second lady said as she walked down from the couch, sat down in front of the mirror, took off the peony on her head, changed her clothes, and walked to the front yard.
……
"Are you sure that the technique of wrought iron was discovered by Ning Yan as you said?"
"What the concubine said, which time did you miss it?"
"Then you try to have a good relationship with someone, if you can persuade that person to hand over the forging technology, if you can report the forging iron technology to the emperor, the future of our Tongxian County is bright."
"Yes, your future is bright."
"I just like your talking mouth."
In the Baifu study, there were bursts of laughter.
