Qi's mother rubbed her hands and entered the hugging building in Anyuan, and the heating on her face made her breathe a long sigh of relief.

"Mom is freezing!" Shen Muqing, who was sitting in front of the bookcase and reading the account book, raised his head when he heard the movement, took out the hand stove in his arms and handed it to Luo Mei, "Go, take it to my mother." ”

Luomei answered.

Qi's mother hurriedly said: "The girl can use it herself!" My hands are cold, and my body is hot! As he spoke, he pushed the stove back again.

Shen Muqing saw it, and he didn't pay much attention to her, and said with a smile: "But what's the matter?" ”

Since Li's speech, Anyuan Juran has become lively. Shen Muqing didn't like the place where he lived to be like a vegetable garden door being put in and out, so he cleared out the three hugging houses and sat there to deal with family affairs.

Qi's mother smiled and took out a few pieces of paper from her sleeve and handed them to Luo Mei: "The two cooks have opened the menu." ”

Luo Mei stepped forward to take it and handed it to Shen Muqing. Shen Muqing looked at it, nodded with a smile, and said, "The arrangement of the dishes is also reasonable." It's just that the amount is added to the forty percent. ”

Qi's mother looked pale: "The guests who have come here in the past few days have not left a meal......

Shen Muqing smiled and said: "Ming is the old man Mu Xiu, and those who are going to come are afraid that they will look for this time." said, there was a bit of ridicule in his tone, "The master is not at home, who knows if he is here." ”

Mother Qi covered her mouth and smiled when she heard this: "What the girl said is true." ”

"However, there are some things that my mother has to worry about." Shen Mu was upright.

Mother Qi also hurriedly lowered her hands and stood up: "The girl is in charge of the order, saying this, the slave family can't afford it." ”

Shen Muqing smiled and said, "If you come tomorrow, I'm afraid that the grade is not low." They are well-informed. Mom will talk to the chef later. The weather is cold, venison and badger pigs are on the table, big fish and meat are not rare, and the thorny cucumbers, cabbage, radishes and the like produced in the greenhouse are prepared, fresh and light, and the most refreshing and sharp. The side of the wine also said that Shanxi Fenjiu is only put in the west cross courtyard of the outer courtyard to treat those grooms, sedan chair men, and the guests in the flower hall of the outer courtyard use Jinhua wine or Shaoxing wine, which is milder, lest someone get drunk and lose their manners when the time comes, and it is not good-looking. The guests in the wife's house, with the golden path dew or Taixi white, this is the health wine of the inner court, the queen mother's reward, the outside is money can not be bought, on weekdays, the adults have drunk at the imperial banquet, but the ladies may not have drunk, just to entertain the ladies of each family. As for the tea, the Wuyi tea bar in the West Cross Courtyard has a strong bitter taste, and the old gentleman's eyebrows in the master's study and wife's house are warm, and other people use Longjing, the tea is clear and fragrant! ”

Mother Qi listened carefully, and when she saw that Shen Muqing had finished speaking, she repeated her words again, and when she saw that there was no discrepancy, she was slightly relieved, and flattered Shen Muqing: "It's still a thoughtful girl!" ”

This part is the experience of the previous life, and part of it is the learning of how to eat and drink from the Li family.

"This is also a little bit of learning from my wife." Shen Mu smiled lightly and changed the topic: "The silver coin is ready." ”

Mother Qi hurriedly said: "It's all recast according to the girl's instructions." ”

Shen Muqing nodded, and said with some anxiety: "Mom must explain it clearly." The plum blossom and begonia style are made of snowflake silver, and the ingot-like ones are made of seventy percent silver. When rewarding, you must not be wrong, the people around the old lady send the plum blossoms and begonia flowers, the sedan chair driver to catch the car, send the ingots...... Beware of making jokes. ”

Qi's mother responded repeatedly.

Shen Muqing instructed Luomei: "Go, take out the pile of sand juan flowers, and let my mother pick two and wear them." ”

Mother Qi hurriedly got up and thanked her: "Sister really tormented me." This is something that is appreciated in the palace. ”

Shen Muqing smiled: "Look at these hairs on my head-give them to me, wouldn't they be buried." ”

When Qi's mother heard this, her face turned into a flower.

She looks very ordinary, but she has black and thick green silk, and she doesn't need to wear a wig when she rolls her head, and she has always been proud of it. Shen Muqing's reward hit her heart.

Luomei came out with a red lacquer carved box and hit it, and there were seven or eight silk flowers in it: "Mom picks two to wear, and I'll send the rest to my aunt and the fourth girl." ”

"It's a blessing to the girl." Mother Qi picked a pomegranate and a Furong, and left with a thousand thanks.

Ying Fan happened to staggered by Wei's mother, looking at the two juanhua flowers and sighing in surprise: "Mom, where did you get this?" ”

Qi's mother was overjoyed: "It's the girl's reward." ”

Ying Fan entered the room, and at a glance saw the red lacquer carved box on the coffee table, and muttered, "The girl is too generous." ”

"I knew you were going to fight." Shen Muqing said with a smile, "The girls and aunts in the family don't have to wear them, but you can wear them, and you are not afraid of offending your eyes." ”

"I'm the personal maid next to the girl, but I'm not as good as a housekeeper." Ying Fan pretended to be angry: "If this is the case, I will also take care of a housekeeper lady." ”

Shen Muqing laughed: "Which one do you like, I'll help you make the decision, and you're satisfied!" ”

Ying Fan's face turned red, and he shouted, "This is also what the girl said!" ”

Luo Mei also covered her mouth and smiled: "If this silk flower is worn for you, I'm afraid you will have to walk around the yard." Mother Qi is not as old as you. If you don't believe it, my aunt is tired of wearing it on her head first, and Mother Qi will never be able to wear this flower. You still want to be a housekeeper, so learn from Mother Qi. ”

Ying Fan didn't argue with this sentence, nodded and said, "This Qi's mother has several interests. I think that at the beginning, whatever happened to my wife, I told Mother Li...... I don't know what happened to her, but in the past two months, she has won the eyes of her wife, but she has taken all the affairs of Li's mother. ”

Shen Muqing's heart moved when he heard this, and he said: "Luomei, I've been busy for the past two days, you can go and see Jinxiu." ”

"I went back yesterday!" Luomei's expression darkened: "It's still the same." ”

Shen Muqing nodded expressionlessly.

******

Qi's mother carried the two flowers to Li's house.

Li was crooked on the kang listening to the gift list sent by Wang's mother in the past few days, and when he saw Qi's mother coming, he waved his hand lightly at Wang's mother: "You go down first!" ”

Mother Wang's eyes glanced at Mother Qi lightly, and she smiled and left.

Qi's mother walked in front of Li with a chatter, and took out the two silk flowers from her arms: "Madam, the girl rewarded me." ”

Li glanced at the two silk flowers and said with a smile: "Since it is a reward for you, accept it." ”

Mother Qi listened, and put the flowers in her sleeves again with a smile on her face.

"You took the menu, what did my sister say?" Li asked lightly.

Mother Qi recounted Shen Muqing's words with a smile.

Li listened expressionlessly, and did not squeak for a long time.

Mother Qi cautiously peeked at Li's expression, and said thoughtfully: "Madam, what I said when I see the girl makes sense......

Li Shi waved his hand towards Qi's mother: "I know." Go down! If there is anything going on with my sister in the future, you won't have to report it to me. ”

Mother Qi immediately responded with a smile of "yes", and then retreated.

Li Shi looked at the magnificent house decorated by one person in the open space, and laughed out loud.

The laughter had an unrestrained heartiness, and the maids and daughters-in-law standing under the eaves were surprised by the laughter.

Only Puyu hurriedly ran in: "Mrs., madam, what's wrong with you?" ”

Li Shi looked at Puyu, a relieved smile bloomed on his face, and said in a low voice: "Our family, there is a good girl!" ”

Puyu looked at Li a little blankly and said, "Our girl is good. Every time you meet me, you give me candy to eat. ”

Early the next morning, there was a heavy snow in the sky. In just an hour, the heavens and the earth have become white.

Despite this, as Shen Muqing expected, the Shen family had a lot of guests. Not only are there many, but most of them are dressed in brocade and sable, and they come in a four-person sedan chair with a silver top soap cover. Needless to say, the servants of the Shen family, the kitchen, tea room, wine room and others did not dare to be sloppy at all, and they trembled to deal with the errand in front of them, for fear that something would go wrong at this juncture.

Because the matter had already been ordered, Shen Muqing was idle here, but he didn't dare to sit still, so he served in the Li family's house.

There are several squire wives and bachelor's wives who came with their husbands, such as the old lady Hu Xin Hu Ge, who is also a cabinet minister and is in charge of the Ministry of Industry with Shen Zhen, as well as the wife of Qin Wei, the prince of Fuyang, the wife of Zhao Fu, the left capital of the Imperial Palace, and the wife of Liu Jin, the commander of the soldiers and horses of the five cities, but they came by themselves. Seven or eight brocade dresses, beads around the green lady sit in the open hall of the Chaoxi Hall according to the rank, stepping on the copper tire enamel longevity foot stove, a few on the seasonal flowers, the old kiln tea cup, and there are nine mafie boxes painted with gold and red lacquer, orange cakes, cloud chips, muffins, soft cakes, peanuts, walnuts, melon seeds, almonds, millet seeds and other snacks, the tall lotus leaf plate is placed with apples, mandarins, loquats, grapes, red dates, raw pears and other mixed fruits, everyone eats pastries, drinks tea, talks and laughs, so lively.

Shen Muqing stood behind the Li family from time to time to look at this and that, and the maids who served on the side followed her eyes to hand out tea and water, and served a handkerchief, and for a while they were also in order, and nothing happened.

As the ladies talked, the topic turned to the matter of Chen Xuewen, the attendant of the Hanlin Academy, marrying the widow of Han Maoyuan, the former political envoy of Henan, and everyone seemed to be full of interest.

The wife of Xie Min, the waiter of the Criminal Department, said with a smile: "Speaking of which, Lord Han and our master are fellow villagers and in the same year, they have been the prefect of Jiangnan for more than 20 years, and later they were promoted to the political secretary of Henan, and they also got involved in the corruption of ink. This one made a wedding dress for someone else. ”

"Isn't there anyone in the Han family who comes out to take charge?" Zhao Fu's wife was surprised, "Just let Mrs. Han bring the Han family's family assets to the Chen family." ”

A sister asked why the public chapter was shown to be chapter 5. Actually, a little thing happened, well, it's not a small thing - it was that my bag was stolen, and the USB flash drive in the bag was gone...... So I made a backup of the published article, and I could have moved something, and as a result, the public chapter became like that...... Now I have to rewrite ......

Ay...... It seems that I really don't have the life to write a book!
