Chapter 10 Rites (1st Update)

In a blink of an eye, it was August 14, and early in the morning, Su Su had just gotten up for breakfast, and Bai Fu's family said back and forth: "Girl, the old lady of Bofu has sent someone, and there are two carts of festivals. Su Su felt very uncomfortable, she hadn't sent this ritual to Bofu yet, but the old lady thought about her first, and hurriedly said, "Please come in." ”

The people who came were Yun Duo, Ming Xiang, and Liu Pozi and Qi Pozi, who were promoted to second-class servants, all of whom were Su Su's acquaintances, Su Su hurriedly stood up, took Yun Duo's hand, and said with a smile: "Why are you here, how can the old lady leave you?" ”

Yun Duo and Mingxiang are now big girls, and Yun Duo recognizes Mama Qin as her godmother, and she is a first-class proud person in front of the old lady, but when she saw Su Su, she still smiled and said: "The old lady has been thinking about the girl for a long time, she originally called Ning Xiang and Wutong, but the gifts were sent everywhere, and the treasury couldn't leave them for a while, I and Ming Xiang could carry a task, and the old lady could speak, 'Su Su's girl is like a wild horse out of the house, and she will never return, you have to invite her back to me, if Su Su doesn't come back, Keep her company. ’”

Mingxiang also took Su Su's arm, "Good girl, you have to respond to us, or we can only eat and drink yours here!" ”

Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Qi looked at Yun Duo and Mingxiang, two big girls who were also the same in Sui'an Hall, playing treasure in front of Su Su, and felt a lot of emotion in their hearts, with Su Su Zhuyu in front, the old lady was obviously not too close to these newly promoted big girls, that is, Yun Duo relied on Mama Qin, and had a face or two. Now that I see Su Su, I still have to be low and small, and I don't dare to take Jiao and take it big.

Su Su looked at Yun Duo and Mingxiang, and said a little helplessly: "Is this really what the old lady said?" I didn't come out of the house for ten days, and I never came back. The two of them were a little weak-hearted, but they nodded firmly.

Su Su looked at them a little funny, "It must be true that I was asked to go home, but it must not be true that I was asked to eat and drink mine." Originally, she also wanted to ask someone to send the prepared gifts to the Bofu today, and she would go over at the sixteenth of her own.

However, as soon as he saw the people in Sui'antang at this time, Su Su wanted to immediately rush back to Sui'antang to see the old lady, thinking about it, except for the old lady who went to Beijing when Concubine Xi was pregnant, and she left for more than half a year, Su Su had never left the old lady's side for so long.

Yun Duo and Mingxiang knew that they couldn't deceive Su Su, and if anyone knew the old lady, they would definitely not be able to compare to Su Su, who was taught by the old lady herself.

"The old lady misses the girl, the food is not very sweet these days, and when I see Ning Xiang and Yuntong, I have to ask the girl about the day she comes back, for fear that the girl will be wronged."

Mrs. Liu also answered on the side, "The old lady ordered to come over early in the morning to give a gift to the girl, what to eat, what to wear, all of which were carefully prepared by Mama Qin, Ning Xiang and Yun Tong, and Concubine Xi and Princess Ning An also had rewards. The old lady said that she asked the girl to go back to the house for the Mid-Autumn Festival. ”

Su Su didn't hesitate when he heard this, and said, "I'll arrange it, Yunduo, Mingxiang, Mother Liu and Mother Qi, you have lunch at my place, and I'll go back with you." ”

When the four people on the opposite side heard this, they were happy, and Mingxiang smiled: "When I go back, I want to ask the old lady for a big red envelope, but I will bring you back to her old man's house!" ”

After talking for a while, Yun Duo handed the gift list to Su Su, and Su Su asked Bai Fujia to arrange for them to go down to rest with tea, only that she would accompany her personally at lunch.

The first page of the gift list is the festival gift given by Concubine Xi Niangniang and Princess An Ning, and the gift is four tribute satins, a pair of Chang'e running to the moon made of gold hairpins, a box of palace flowers, a box of puff pastry moon cakes and eight crab-like gold bills.

Princess An Ning was rewarded with a set of Hetian white jade gold-filled incense utensils, including incense burners, incense buckets, incense tubes, incense balls, incense sticks, incense boxes, not to mention, as well as incense clips for holding incense products, incense chopsticks like chopsticks, incense shovels for disposing of incense ashes, incense spoons for powdered or pill-shaped incense products, etc.

Su Su liked this set of incense very much when she saw it, and moved it to the study in person and placed them one by one.

Then the old lady asked someone to send it, and there were more of these things, and the hairy crabs in Guanggucheng Lake and the pike crabs in Bohai Bay sent two large baskets.

Beijing-style, Suzhou-style, Cantonese and other types of moon cakes are the same, not to mention the same box, as well as all kinds of in-house moon cakes appreciated in the palace.

There are half a cart of watermelons, grapes, and pears, as well as various fruits from overseas; Bird's nest, snow clams, ginseng and other supplements were given a few more boxes.

There are also four sets of clothes, two sets of heads and noodles and a box of scattered small jewelry made for Su Su by the old lady in her private room.

Next came the food cloth that the young lady had ordered to be prepared, and then the knick-knacks prepared by the girls.

Among them, the six girls sent a painting, this time using her newly learned realistic style of oil painting, which depicts Su Su wearing a green dress when he left the house, sitting next to the lotus water pavilion, looking down and smelling the lotus fragrance.

The sixth girl is quite talented in painting, that is, when Su Su dresses up every day, she is used to seeing her appearance in the mirror, and she is also flashed by the beauty in the painting.

Susu finally knew why the beautiful boy Narcissus in Greek mythology was madly infatuated with him.

Of course, Su Su is not so narcissistic, and because of this face, she has caused a lot of trouble for herself, and sometimes Su Su even has the urge to destroy it in her heart, but fortunately, she always remembers that "impulse is the devil", so she can still sit here at this moment and appreciate her portrait indifferently.

Su Su instructed Fan Dai to take out some of the dim sum and food to give to his subordinates, and the remaining things were called Ink Enthronement and Album, also called Qiqiao Linglong and clean up things, and after lunch, he went back to Shun Anbo's Mansion.

Here, Su Su arranged the things that the old lady asked someone to send, and the Bai Fu family outside went back and forth, "The grandmother of the Huang family has sent someone to send a gift for the festival!" Su Su was just about to call someone in, but a servant woman came in outside and replied: "Outside, someone from the Yang Wei Dart Bureau came to ask for a meeting, saying that it was the Northwest Hong Qianhu who asked someone to send a festival gift to the girl." ”

As soon as Su Su heard this, he quickly got up, and wanted to call someone in, but the dart master who came from the Yangwei Dart Bureau must be a man, and he was not good at seeing male guests, so he said: "Call Zhao Zhuangtou to receive guests, see if people are in a hurry to go, if not, clean up the guest rooms in the outer courtyard, call people to rest, if they are in a hurry, ask the kitchen to quickly clean up a table of delicious meals, and prepare dry food." ”

The servant woman who replied hurriedly followed Su Su's instructions, and Zhuangzi's subordinates had been told that their girl had already been engaged, and the other party was a five-grade thousand household in the northwest, and they would all follow the girl to marry in the future. Come to think of it, it's this Hong Qianhu. The people sent by my uncle in the future can't be neglected.

The Bai Fu family was still waiting for Su Su's order, and Su Su said, "The person who came is Cai Chong's family?" ”

Bai Fujia hurriedly said: "It's Cai Chong's family!" ”

"Since she is here, then there is no need to see outside, tell her that people from the northwest are busy, the family is busy, I won't see her, and by the way, I will tell her to bring back the rituals prepared for the Huang family, and let her tell her master, say no to the elders of the Huang family for me, and visit her again another day."

After Su Su finished speaking, he called the ink again and said, "Take a high-grade red seal and give it to Cai Chong's family." "Su Su is not as good as being in Bofu, and a high-grade red seal also has five taels of silver. Shui Mo took the red envelope and followed Bai Fu's family out.

Su Su didn't expect that the people from Yang Wei's dart bureau would be able to find here, presumably because she had returned to King Ke's mansion and knew from Mama Wei that she had already left the mansion. Su Su thought for a while, summoned Fan Dai, and said, "Go outside and ask Uncle Zhao if you can bring some things to Hong Qianhu, if it can be natural, if not, it's fine." ”

Since the small set, Su Su has begun to embroider the dowry, only the old lady of the wedding dress said that she was prepared, it took nearly half a year to find a master embroiderer with exquisite embroidery in Yangzhou, and it took nearly half a year to repair it, and it was sent to the capital before Su Su left the house, and then Su Su added a few stitches.

There is no need to repair the wedding dress, which saves a lot of time, Su Su embroidered some handkerchiefs for the old lady and wiped her forehead, and also took the time to make a few clothes for Hong Sheng. She has made clothes for Hong Sheng for several years, and Xiao Ping knows his current size, and men's clothes don't need to be embroidered, so they are naturally handy.

Before, I was thinking about whether to use the caravan to the west of Bofu to bring it to Hong Sheng, but now that someone from the Yangwei Dart Bureau came over in person, it saved another layer of trouble.

Fan Dai went out to reply, and came back after a while, saying: "Yang Wei Dart Bureau has a total of three dart masters and six executioners, and there are others waiting in the capital, these people are good friends with my uncle, so I dragged them here." He said that he couldn't stay long, and he would leave in a while, and asked the girl if she had anything to give to her uncle. When the slave and maid came back, Uncle Zhao was accompanying them to eat, and my mother also prepared dry food, some sauced beef, jar vegetables, and mooncakes sent by the old lady. ”

Su Su listened to Fan Dai grinning and calling Hong Sheng "uncle", and there was a rare shyness on his face, "You little hoof, what nonsense?" Fan Dai and the other three maids squeezed their eyes and said, "The slave is wrong, it's the future uncle." ”

Su Su didn't care about Fan Dai's jokes, and took out the four clothes he made for Hong Sheng, a jacket robe, a cotton pants, and two sets of middle clothes cut from Songjiang Sansuo cloth rewarded by the old lady. This Songjiang cotton cloth is famous in ancient and modern times, and the three shuttle cloth is the top grade of tribute in Dachu, there is no price, and a horse of three shuttle cloth can be fried to dozens of taels of silver.

When Su Su was in the Bofu, because the old lady loved, there were only two horses a year, and this time out of the house, there were eight good Songjiang cotton cloths on the dowry list, which were added by the old lady in private, and Su Su cut one for Hong Sheng to make two sets of Chinese clothes.

Su Su knows that no matter what kind of relationship needs to be maintained, although she has no love for Hong Sheng now, and Hong Sheng may not be in love with her, but since he dares to risk offending the powerful to save himself from danger, then she will also manage the relationship between the two with her heart. Su Su does not ask for anything "one couple for a lifetime", but at least the husband and wife should be harmonious.

These two sets of underwear were decided to be made by Su Su after thinking for a long time, and the underwear is not underwear, so it will not appear that he is not reserved. But the underwear is also a lining, it is a rich family, and the underwear is also sewn by his wife or a personal maid, Su Su put himself in the position of Hong Sheng's fiancΓ©e, which seems very intimate.

Before Xiaoding, Su Su only regarded Hong Sheng as a lifesaver, but now, Su Su will guess Hong Sheng's personality and preferences, and will think about some small details, just like in addition to clothes, there are also a few carefully embroidered belts and purses, which are still objects that show Su Su's ability.

In addition, there are a lot of food, all of which are pickles and dried meat that are small and do not occupy an area and can be stored for a long time, such as men's moisturizers specially made by Su Su to prevent wind and dryness, and skin care products used by the palace concubines mentioned by Hong Sheng in the letter last time.

There are a lot of medicinal materials, and even there are two jars of medicinal wine, all of which were slowly added by Su Su after Xiaoding.

Su Su is also afraid of trouble, so everything is planned one by one, and try to put it into a small box, this box is made by Su Su's grandfather who has long called Qiqiao, and it is divided into various grids, trying to make full use of every inch of space.

In the outer courtyard, the people from Yang Wei's dart bureau were full of wine and food, although they didn't see the main family, but they could also understand, after all, they heard that Hong Wei's daughter-in-law was the same as him, both parents died.

Out of Shun Anbo Mansion, now I am alone in this rural village, and people are delicate little ladies, so it is naturally difficult to see them, this is the serious style. Especially not long after they entered the door, Su Su asked someone to clean up a table with fish and meat, not to mention, but also asked someone to prepare dry food to eat.

Looking at the sour plum soup and watermelon juice mixed with ice, packed in delicate skins, although the three dart masters said in their hearts, "only women drink things", but the speed of loading is not slow at all, and they saw that the box prepared by Su Su for Hong Sheng is not too big, but just look at the workmanship of the box to know that it is a rare thing.

The three dart masters are all natives of Yangzhou, and they know that the big girl around the old lady of the Song family is very sought-after, not to mention that they are also literate and hyphenated, which caused a wave of "I would rather marry everyone than marry a small girl" in Yangzhou.

They also heard that Hong Sheng, the future daughter-in-law, was the most useful by Mrs. Song's side, and because of her rare appearance, she was raised by the old lady as her own girl.

But the maid is the maid, and they secretly muttered before, Hong Sheng is now promising, marrying a maid as a daughter-in-law, it is really a bit insulting to him, I really don't know what that girl looks like, called Hong Sheng is so "lustful and dizzy".

Now seeing that Su Su acted so thoughtfully, even the subordinates around him were also decent and dressed extraordinary, and their hearts had changed greatly.

And from some details, it is not difficult to find that Hong Sheng, the future daughter-in-law, is also worth a little. In addition, seeing what Su Su prepared for Hong Sheng, this son began to envy Hong Sheng.

If you have a daughter-in-law, you want to go home quickly, and the wife and children will be on the kang; I don't have a daughter-in-law, I want to go back and find one quickly.

The people in Yang Wei's dart bureau didn't stay long, after eating, they took the things that Su Su prepared for Hong Sheng, and left in a hurry. They had limited time, and they had to run back and forth between the northwest of the capital before the year.
