Chapter 164 The grapes of the new Zhuangzi are ripe!

"Cousin, may I come in?" There was a knock on the door of the study, and Mu Lan's voice was heard from outside.

After Qin's father and Qin Haoran left, they leisurely returned to their small courtyard to deal with the things that his brother had not finished.

"Miss Table." Wanxue opened the door and invited Mu Lan in.

Leisurely put down the pen in his hand, got up and pulled Mu Lan to the side chair to sit down, and asked with a smile, "Why did my cousin come to me when he was free?" Is Big Cousin's injury better? ”

Mu Lan showed a shy and gentle smile, "The eldest brother fell asleep after taking the medicine, and my aunt was afraid that I would be bored, so I ordered the girl to send me to you." Cousin, what are you doing? ”

"Me? Hehe, nothing was done. He replied with a leisurely smile, looking at her with sparkling eyes.

Honestly, her cousin is really a beautiful embryo. The willow leaves bend the eyebrows, the cherry is small, the hibiscus is like a face, and it is as light as autumn water. She is the typical image of a southern woman, tender as water, elegant and meticulous.

"Why does my cousin look at me like that? But my face is dirty? Mu Lan saw that she had been looking at her with a smile all the time, and she was a little shy and helped her cheek.

"Poof, hehe......" Youran was amused by her movements, and quipped, "It's not dirty." I just have never seen a beauty like my cousin, so I looked twice. ”

"Yikes! My cousin used to make fun of me, and if you did, I went back. Mu Lan glared at her shyly, whispered softly, and stood up with the words.

"Don't! Good cousin, can't I be wrong? You just came back here, my mother doesn't think I'm bullying you! Leisurely flattering tugged at her sleeve and pulled her back to sit down, "I'm not kidding, okay?" You're just going to stay and play with me, right? ”

After speaking, he didn't forget to squeeze his eyebrows at her mischievously, and immediately made Mu Lan laugh.

"Okay, I'm not leaving, don't squeeze your eyes, you'll be uncomfortable in a while." Mu Lan's cheeks flushed.

Since then, she has come to the conclusion that her cousin is really easy to be shy and blush.

"Miss, Miss......" The two sisters were chatting happily, and Sister Xi ran in from outside happily, shouting as she ran.

"Miss is chatting with Miss Table, you are shouting like this, as if there are no rules! Carefully let grandpa know to punish you. Say, what's so in a hurry? Wanyun stopped Sister Xi and reprimanded her.

Sister Xi didn't care, it was indeed that she was a little carried away when she was too happy. Quietly stuck out his tongue, and obediently admitted his mistake: "Sister Yun'er, I know it's wrong!" Don't be angry. ”

"You little girl, you can't let people save snacks." Wan Yun said as she stretched out her index finger and tapped her head, "Okay, go in and tell Miss about it!" ”

Hearing the movement outside, he smiled leisurely at Mu Lan, and then asked Sister Xi'er, who had just come in, "Is something wrong?"

Sister Xi curtsied and replied: "Back to Miss, it was just now that Tian Er's steward sent someone to inform him that the rose-fragrant grapes on the new Zhuangzi were ripe; Come and ask when you can pick? ”

"Really? Cooked so quickly? "Two days ago, she was still much greener! I didn't expect it to mature so quickly.

"Yes! The man who came said that the vineyard was now full of the scent of rose-scented grapes, and it smelled so good! Sister Xi said with a smile.

"Then you go and reply to the visitor, and when you go back, let the stewards gather people and pick them today!" With a leisurely smile, he commanded, "Oh, by the way, let them do the storage work." ”

"Yes, Miss." Sister Xi smiled and curtfell in agreement. However, when she turned around, she paused, and called out cautiously and flatteringly, "Miss......"

"Huh? What's wrong? He looked at the expression on her face with a leisurely smile.

"That ......" Sister Xi squirmed, and asked a little embarrassedly: "Miss, can the slave go with you to pick grapes?"

After asking, he looked at her with those big eyes full of anticipation without blinking.

Youran was really amused by her this time, and glanced at her coquettishly, "Go, remember to do what I told you to do!" ”

"Yes, thank you, Miss." Sister Xi was really happy to jump up this time, she knew that her young lady was the best.

Sister Xi jumped happily and ran away, and Wanyun and Wanxue were a little envious. Actually, they want to pick grapes too! Besides, this time the rose grapes were newly cultivated by the young lady, and they had never seen them before! When they had just heard Sister Xi say that the grapes were fragrant, they were eager to go over and take a look.

The leisurely old god was drinking tea, looking at the two tangled little girls around him and snickering.

Shaking his head slightly, he put down the teacup with a leisurely smile and said, "Okay, don't get entangled!" Go clean up! Go and tell my mother again, let's go to Xinzhuangzi to pick grapes, so that they don't have to wait for us to eat at noon. ”

"Miss!" Wanyun and Wanxue looked at her in surprise.

"Let's go~ Remember to warm up the carriage." Leisurely smiled and commanded.

The two happily said in unison, "Yes."

When the two girls went out to prepare, they turned their heads leisurely and took Mu Lan's hand, and said with a smile: "Cousin, I'll take you to Zhuangzi to play in a while, there are a lot of good things there!"

"Really? That's good! Mu Lan smiled and nodded in agreement.

When the girl came in just now to say goodbye, she couldn't help but be curious, "Cousin, what are the grapes you just said?" ”

Looking at her curious gaze leisurely, he explained to her with a smile, "Grape is a fruit, there are many varieties, and the taste is also different. ”

"It's fruit!" Mu Lan nodded knowingly, "I didn't expect that in addition to persimmons, there is also this fruit to eat in winter." That's nice! ”

"Hehe, there is more than one of these grapes! When you get to the village in a while, you will see a lot of fruits. A leisurely and mysterious smile.

"Huh?" Mu Lan looked at her suspiciously, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Of course, you'll find out when you get there." After speaking, he pulled Mu Lan out of the door.

The carriage was well arranged by the evening clouds! The carriages were covered with thick blankets to keep out the moisture and cold; The blanket was covered with a thick cushion, and it was very comfortable to sit on.

Youran and Mu Lan sat inside, Wanyun and Wanxue were afraid that they would be cold, and they also prepared a quilt for them to cover. There was a small stove in the carriage, and it didn't take long for it to be warm.

"Miss, this time the grapes are ripe, do you want to make raisins?" Sitting in the car with nothing to do, they chatted leisurely.

"The fruit of the rose-scented grape is much smaller than usual. When ripe, the grapes are purple with a black tinge and a high degree of sweetness; And because it tastes like a rose, it is named 'rose fragrance'. This grape is the best for wine and fresh food, and the intoxicating aroma is best appreciated. Leisurely narrowed his eyes slightly, enjoying the taste.

"When Miss said this, the slaves and maids were about to drool." Wanyun deliberately sucked in his saliva and laughed at a carload of people.

Sitting in the warm car, talking and laughing along the way. In a short time, they came to the new Zhuangzi.

The new Zhuangzi is located to the north of the Southern Imperial Palace, less than half an hour away from the leisurely house. This was originally the property of another landlord's family, and the landlord was in the middle of the road due to poor management; In order to support his family, he had to sell all his land.

When she took over here, she bought all the wasteland and mountains nearby, and built a bigger Zhuangzi than her family's original one.

The carriage stopped at the doorway, and the thick curtain was lifted leisurely so that the people outside could see her clearly.

"Miss." The people guarding the gate of Zhuangzi respectfully saluted leisurely.

She nodded softly and commanded, "The door is open!" Wait a minute, steward Tian will bring people over, you just need to watch a little bit, and don't let outsiders get in. ”

"Yes." After the gatekeeper agreed, he ran to open the sturdy gate of Zhuangzi.

Their carriage entered and walked for a while, and finally stopped in front of a small courtyard of blue bricks.

"It's beautiful!"

"This is where my brother and I work, and if it's too late or the weather is bad, we'll stay here." got out of the car and leisurely introduced Mu Lan.

This small courtyard was designed by Leisurely and himself, in the style of the old Beijing small courtyard house. The doorway enters, and there are rooms on all sides; A large banyan tree was planted in the middle of the courtyard, and under the banyan tree there was a small stone table and four stone benches.

Outside the door of each house in the courtyard, a small flower bed was built on the left and right, which was full of various flowers and plants; The doors of each room are carved with delicate flower patterns, with different varieties and shapes.

"This carved rose is my room." Leisurely pointed to a door and said, "This room is in the form of an inner and outer room. The inner room is a bedroom for resting, and the outer room is a living room. ”

"The one over there carved with green bamboo is my brother's room, and the decoration layout is the same as mine. The carved peony is my parents' room, and the cherry blossom is Si'er's, and En'er's is the orchid carving. Directly facing the door is our office room, which has a study and a reception room. ”

After introducing them one by one, he leisurely took Mu Lan's hand and approached his room, "Cousin, how do you see here?" ”

"It's beautiful, it's very simple, and I love this style of building." Mu Lan praised sincerely.

"Hehe, it's good if my cousin likes it." Said with a leisurely smile, "If you can't finish today, we'll live here, okay?" ”

"Okay!" Mu Lan nodded, she had no problem with where she lived, not to mention that she really liked it here!

"Well, that's it! Let's go, I'll take you to visit Zhuangzi, and I'll leave it to Wanyun and them here. After finishing speaking, he didn't forget to tell a few girls, "Today's weather is good, you take out all the quilts in the pavilion to dry, and then spread them after removing the moisture." ”

"Yes, miss, don't worry! Just leave it to the slaves and maids to take care of it, and you can take Miss Biao to visit Zhuangzi with peace of mind. Evening Snow responded with a smile.

"Okay." Leisurely nodded, "You guys need to be faster!" Didn't you say you had to pick grapes? ”

"Uh-huh, I'm going." Wan Yun nodded again and again, replying.

"Hehe~ Go and speed it a little! When we return, we will have to stop here so that I will allow you to pick grapes. Said with a leisurely smile and crooked eyebrows.

"Don't worry, Miss, the slaves will definitely finish it." Wanyun looked full of fighting spirit, so he almost patted his chest and assured her.

"That's good. We're leaving, bye-bye~"
