Chapter 59: Invitations

 : : : :Mrs. listened to it and said, "Then dare to be kind, then let's stay with you for one more day!" ”

 : : : :Mrs. Qin frowned when she heard what Mrs. said so, and said: "No, Wanying, you are different from my old wife, the New Year is coming soon, there is a lot of things waiting for you to go to Zhang Luo inside and outside the Hou Mansion, and at the end of the year, the Hou Ye is afraid that he will also return to Beijing to report on his work, so you should go back today." It's not like Xue Yi and I are two idlers anyway, so it's okay to go back a day later! ”

 : : : :Mrs. listened to Mrs. Qin's reasoning, so she was no longer polite. Everyone came to the wing room where Qin Xueyi was, and Qin Xueyi was half-leaning on the bed and being served by Yahuan to take medicine.

 : : : :Qin Xueyi, who had just finished drinking the medicine with a bitter face, was holding a date in her mouth. Seeing that Mrs. Qi Pan Xiaoyu and others came in, she quickly swallowed the dates in one bite and greeted everyone with a smile.

 : : : : Mrs. saw that Qin Xueyi's spirit was not as sluggish as the day before, and asked about Qin Xueyi's situation again, knowing that everything was normal, and she didn't shout dizziness and want to vomit when she got up today, so she really put her mind at ease.

 : : : : It's just that the redness and swelling in front of Qin Xueyi's forehead are still obvious, Xiaoyu took advantage of the adults' greetings, and stepped forward to Qin Xueyi and said: "Sister Qin, you can recuperate with peace of mind, when you return home, we will come to see you again!" Qin Xueyi nodded hurriedly: "I'll send you a letter as soon as I get home, you must come." ”

 : : : :Old Madam Qin smiled and said to Madame: "Wanying, you see, the two of them are as good as sisters!" Madame covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled: "Miss Qin is hearty and lovely, no wonder she and our little fish are familiar at first sight!" ”。

 : : : :A few people visited Qin Xueyi, so they went back to the yard to pack up the cage, and after eating at noon, they said goodbye to everyone in the Qin Mansion, and went back to the house.

 : : : : Xiao Yu didn't have a chance to see Murong Hua again today, and he was stunned in his heart. He saved himself, but he didn't seem to have thanked him properly. Along the way, the carriage swayed, and Murong Hua's face also swayed in front of Xiaoyu's eyes, which made her upset.

 : : : : Shortly after returning home, my wife sent someone over to deliver two red and gold inlaid invitations.

 : : : :Xiaoyu and Qi Pan each took a copy and opened it to take a closer look. The invitation card is the familiar smell of osmanthus fragrance, and the cover is delicately depicted with gold lacquer to the beauty dressing picture, seeing this picture, Xiaoyu doesn't need to look at the content to know that it must be the opening invitation sent by the moon boy.

 : : : : Open the invitation card again, and look at it, the red background of the paper is printed with golden orchid dark lines, and sure enough, it is written in strong and powerful italics on the fifth day of the lunar month Lan Kwai Fong opened, please Mrs. Hou Fu Miss to appreciate the face of Yunyun and other words, the small seal of the moon boy is used at the sign.

 : : : :"Lan Kwai Fong?" Qi Pan read out slowly, "This name is also chic!" The little fish burst out laughing.

 : : : : That Sun Moon Gongzi sent a message to ask Xiao Yu to think of a name for the cosmetics shop, Xiao Yu was busy painting clothes, so busy and annoyed that Yue Gongzi even had to ask her to call the shots for this kind of thing, so he casually said Lan Kwai Fong. I don't want to use it this month.

 : : : : "Why is my sister laughing?" Qi Pan's surprised question interrupted Xiao Yu's memories.

 : : : :Xiao Yu pursed the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Sister doesn't know, I think of the names of Lancome and Osmanthus Xianglu, and I think that Yue Gongzi is really lazy, so I took the word Langui as the name of the store, and it is not easy to think of one, so I laughed!" ”

 : : : :Qi Pan covered his mouth and smiled: "This sister doesn't know, "Kindergarten Qionglin" has the sentence "Lan Gui Tengfang", usually Lan Gui is a metaphor for beauty and virtue, the end is a good color, and the name of the goods sold, this month Gongzi is quite ingenious! ”

 : : : :Xiaoyu stuck out his tongue and said: "It turned out that my sister's belly was empty, I don't know the meaning of this Lan Gui, I laughed generously!" In his heart, he secretly laughed at his casual remark, and let Qi Pan explain it like this, thinking that Yue Gongzi also knew Lan Gui's meaning, so he adopted this name.

 : : : : "Miss, Miss, Miss, it's late today, and everyone is tired." Madame said, "Please come over tomorrow morning to discuss the matter of Lan Kwai Fong." The lady who came to deliver the invitation said with a smile on her face.

 : : : : This Zi Yao was originally a second-class girl, because Zi Yao committed an accident a while ago, Mrs. was short of people, and after many investigations, she was selected to come up.

 : : : : On the second day, Xiao Yu and Qi Pan finished practicing, had breakfast, and after cleaning up, they appeared in front of Mrs. arm in arm.

 : : : : Mrs. sat at the top of the small flower hall in a half-worn homely jacket, holding a unicorn bronze stove in her hand. Seeing the two daughters coming hand in hand, Ying Ying smiled and said: "You two sisters are dressed like two sisters, and they look like twin flowers!" “

 : : : : It turned out that Xiaoyu was on a whim this morning, and Qi Pan found two sets of home-style dresses of similar colors to wear, and both pulled up the swallow bun. It's just that Qi Pan is wearing a Feiyan Cloud Piercing Silver Hairpin on his head, and Xiao Yu is wearing a Pisces Lotus Silver Hairpin on his head, and both of them are wearing ruby collars, and they are generally tall and short.

 : : : :Xiaoyu pulled Qi Pan and walked up to his wife with great interest and said, "Mother, don't you think it's fun for us to dress up like this!" ”

 : : : :Mrs. saw two red fluttering little faces smiling in front of her, one delicate and gentle, the other lively and beautiful, looking left and right with joy in her heart.

 : : : :She lightly nodded Xiaoyu's forehead and said, "I knew it was your ghost's idea, I remember that you were a little shorter than Pan'er before, but now you are generally tall!" ”

 : : : :Xiaoyu smiled and grimaced: "It's fun, when my father comes back, I'll be dressed the same as my sister, I want to see if my father still recognizes my sister!" After speaking, she couldn't help but smile herself.

 : : : :Mrs. smiled and hugged Qi Pan over and said, "Pan'er, don't listen to your sister's nonsense, although your father is away all the year round, he doesn't see you much, but when did he write a letter and didn't ask about you?" But now that you're older, you two have to dress the same, I guess your dad is really going to have a headache! ”

 : : : :Qi Pan raised his little face with a smile and said: "Mother, my sister is also fun for a while, and it will be good when she has played, I also think it's fun to dress the same!" ”

 : : : : After the two laughed in front of Madame, Madame asked her to sit on a chair on one side.

 : : : :"This time I called the two of you, mainly for the post sent by the young man of the moon yesterday!" , Madame took a sip of tea and frowned.

 : : : :"Xiaoyu, let me ask you, what is the relationship between this Lan Kwai Fong and you?" A while ago, I saw that you were busy teasing these balsam powders, and you were busy asking Mrs. Qin to paint for you or something, I thought you were going to open a shop yourself! Madame asked, seemingly unconcerned.

 : : : : Xiao Yu's heart jumped, thinking that Mrs. was asking a little strange, I don't know if she would check the deed of the shop.

 : : : :"Mother, it was me who was bored with the gold bricks and improved the balsam recipe given by Aunt Liu, and I made the red jade cream according to the ancient recipe in the book. Originally, it was just our little girl doing fun, but I didn't expect the gold brick to take some to Yue Gongzi for a while, and Yue Gongzi somehow said that these things were good, and it was recommended to open a shop to sell. Xiao Yu said according to the words that had been made up a long time ago.

 : : : : "Originally, Mr. Yue said that he would give me some shares, but I thought that my mother's permission for me and my sister to participate in Yunshang Shop was already an exception, so how could I participate in these businessmen again and again, so I pushed with Mr. Yue."

 : : : :Xiao Yu carefully peeked at his wife's expression while talking, and saw that his wife's expression was safe and there was no change, so he felt more relieved.

 : : : :" But I couldn't resist the repeated requests of the Yue Gongzi, I thought that the Yue Gongzi would treat his sister, and it was not good to be too neglectful to him, so I agreed to teach him the preparation of Babaisan and Hongyushuang. He gave me some silver taels at a time, and from now on his shop selling these things had nothing to do with me, and I was not allowed to tell anyone about this law again. I supervised the completion of the first shipments, and when his men got the hang of it, they didn't bother me. ”

 : : : :After Xiao Yu finished speaking, he stood up and saluted his wife and said, "Mother, my daughter is advocating without her mother's permission, please punish her mother!" ”。

 : : : :Mrs. looked gentle, raised her hand lightly and said, "Xiaoyu, you sit first." You did the right thing this time, just concentrate on doing a good job in the cloud shop. Before, I allowed the two of you to participate in the affairs of the cloud shop, and I also hope that you will understand some of the tricks of shop operation, and after you get married in the future, you will not be in a hurry, and you won't even be able to read the account book. But if you blindly indulge in this, you will lose your identity if you calculate how to make money every day, and you will be looked down upon. If you can't make up your mind in the future, you still have to discuss it with me more, after all, you are still young, and there are many sinister things in the world, which are not something that you two girls in the boudoir can figure out! Xiaoyu and Qi Pan stood up and said yes.

 : : : :Mrs. said again: "Since the moon boy sent the invitation, let's go and cheer the party, after all, the moon boy is kind to Pan'er, and he will have to bother more in the future!" ”

 : : : :Xiaoyu calculated the days in his heart, it is the end of the winter month, and there are still a few days before the opening of the moon boy.

 : : : :She turned her head to look at Qi Pan, Qi Pan nodded knowingly and said, "Mother, I don't know what to prepare for this opening gift?" ”

 : : : :Mrs. groaned for a moment, and said, "Now that you are older, it is time for you to learn how to give gifts back." ”

 : : : :After speaking, Mrs. instructed Zi Yan to bring the warehouse records and gift lists, flipped through them, and pointed to a page for Xiaoyu and Qi Pan to come forward and take a look.

 : : : : "Look at the two of you, in addition to giving you a dream stone, the previous lady Liyue Gongzi also gave you four brocades and a thousand taels of silver. We have to compare this with this gift this time. ”

 : : : :After Mrs. finished speaking to the two, she closed her eyes and thought for a while: "In this way, there is a jasper Pixiu gold ornament in the treasury, which is most suitable for his kind of shop to attract wealth, plus two thousand taels of silver, it is almost the same." After speaking, the lady told the two of them some rules and tricks for returning gifts.

 : : : :Both of them have the guidance of their wives, and they both feel that it is very beneficial. Then I followed Mrs. to the warehouse and listened to Mrs. explain the identity and occasion of various gifts one by one. After the lady finished explaining on the spot, it was already noon, and the second daughter said goodbye and returned to Qixia Courtyard.
