Since Nie Xiaonian went to the academy, due to the shortage of people in various parts of the house, most of the people in Shao'an Academy have been transferred to various places to work as errands. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Only Su Xin and An's mother stayed in Shao'an Hospital.

Su Xin used to be the big girl by the Jiang family's side, and she could be trusted in both character and ability. And the fact that he was able to walk Xiaohong's path to her in isolation and helplessness before shows that this person is capable.

"The slave has seen the girl. "Suxin bowed steadily.

Nie Xiaofan said: "There is one thing, I want to think about it, or you go and check it..."

In the next few days, Nie Xiao'e never came to Zhuxiangyuan again. Nie Xiaofan only thinks she is busy. Occasionally, I still sent some novel snacks to her. She accepted it, and sent her mother-in-law to say thank you.

Nie Xiaofan didn't care about her, he just looked forward to going to Changping after the Mid-Autumn Festival as soon as possible.

On this day, Lian asked Nie Xiao'e and Nie Xiaofan to come to the house to discuss matters.

Nie Xiaofan was about to go out, but saw Liu Yu coming over with a brocade box: "Girl, the letter from the girl to you on Wednesday was delivered." ”

"Let it go. I'll come back and see again. Nie Xiaofan said.

It is said that friendship between girls is to share secrets with each other.

Zhou Baozhu told Nie Xiaofan her secret, that is, he regarded her as a friend. In addition, Mrs. Zhou told Nie Xiaofan to take care of his body from time to time, and Zhou Baozhu wrote a letter to convey it. It is a correspondence between the two of them.

Nie Xiaofan was not in a hurry to read her letter at this time, so he planned to take Liu Yu Fennel to Xifu first.

Out of the main hall, Liu Xin was waiting for her in the courtyard again. When she came, she looked like she wanted to speak and stopped.

"If you have something to say, say it. Nie Xiaofan said gently.

Liu Xin glanced at Liu Yufen behind Nie Xiaofan, and whispered, "Girl... The slave also wants to go to Xifu with you. Sister Fennel is still young, and the slave is afraid that she will not serve the girl well..."

Fennel is the most honest and responsible, and she didn't dare to refute when she said this, but lowered her head aggrievedly.

Even though Liu Yu and Liu Xin have a deep relationship, at this time, it is a little unbearable to see her bullying fennel like this. On weekdays, you don't want to see fennel. Now in front of the girl, he is bullying people like this.

Liu Yu was afraid that the girl would reprimand Liu Xin, so she said: "Fennel is a second-class maid promoted by the girl herself. How can you choreograph it?"

Liu Xin was slightly stunned, although Liu Yu was not very close to her, she didn't expect Liu Yu to help Fennel, obviously she was both brought back from Zhuangzi by the girl, how could there be any reason to ask others to climb on the head?

Of course, she knew that fennel was the second class of the girl herself, and that is, after she was greedy for merit and took it upon herself to find out the cause of the girl's illness that day, she saw the blame on the girl. On the contrary, the little cheap hoof of fennel was valued by the girl...

She is really stupid, even if she suspects that Mrs. Zhou has tried to make the girl sick, she can't make a fuss openly. Otherwise, can the girl be valued by the Zhou Mansion again?

Liu Xin was remorseful here, but Nie Xiaofan said: "You go with me, fennel is bound to stay." If there's something going on at home, how do you tell her to deal with it?"

Liu Xin was overjoyed when she heard this, does the girl value her very much?

It turned out that he didn't dislike her and didn't take her out, but he valued her very much and asked her to guard the house?

Nie Xiaofan said again: "Keep watch at home, someone will say I'm not there when someone comes." It's good to deal with it properly and not cause jokes. ”

Nie Xiaofan said and left with Liu Yu Fennel. Liu Xin's crisp voice behind him remembered: "Yes, the slave will definitely guard the house." ”

Or take a carriage with Nie Xiao'e to Xifu. The two were still talking and laughing. It won't be long before it arrives.

Lian is wearing a homely chrysanthemum top and embroidered makeup skirt today. The whole person seems to be very energetic.

After the greetings, Lian asked, "Are all the things in the house still going smoothly now?"

Nie Xiao'e said with a smile: "It's all taught by you, auntie, and this little thing can be handled." Nie Xiaofan also said the same.

Lian nodded with satisfaction, these two girls learned some housekeeping skills, and they could only do things at their in-laws' house in the future.

Lian Shi said, "I called you here today." The main thing is to discuss the personnel issues in the prefecture.

"Now the East Mansion is beyond its means, and I want to send out all the old people in the mansion. First, let them retire. Second, how do you think about reducing the expenses of the government?"

When Mrs. Nie was in charge, she had already dismissed some of the people, and now the so-called old people who stay in the house are in addition to the nurses of each grandchild. There are only a few old servants around Nie Baijun and Old Lady Nie.

Nie Xiao'e and Nie Xiaofan were silent, Lian's move was undoubtedly groundbreaking on Tai Sui's head. Neither of them was good to take a stand first.

As soon as Lian looked at the two of them, he knew that they might have a disagreement, and if the two sisters trusted each other, they should advance and retreat together at this time. Instead of waiting for the other party to make a statement first.

But Lian didn't care too much, just thought they were little girls and made a fuss.

After being silent for a while, Nie Xiaofan still didn't wait for Nie Xiao'e's meaning. After all, when it comes to dealing with Old Lady Nie, she and the Lian clan are allies.

Nie Xiaofan said: "Auntie, this method is very good. I'll talk to my father. ”

Lian had expected that Nie Xiaofan would agree, but he was not much surprised at this time. Now the two of them are waiting for Nie Xiao'e's meaning.

Will she be willing to cooperate, or will she go it alone?

Nie Xiao'e calmly picked up the teacup and took a sip. Cai said: "This is a great grace, I am willing to persuade my father with my third sister." ”

Lien is very satisfied with this result. and taught them many ways to control them. Both of them felt useful.

Lian's refreshments today, Nie Xiaofan can't be named. But it is made of special flower molds made by Juxian Building. While listening to it, Nie Xiaofan felt that this pastry was delicious, and he actually used several pieces in a row.

......

Several people discussed good things, and Lian just said that there was a matter of Hexian Zhai to discuss with Nie Xiaofan.

Nie Xiao'e got up to say goodbye, and Lian felt that the two sisters had a deep disagreement.

What's the harm if she just listens here? Why do you need to avoid suspicion so much, she actually went back first without waiting for Nie Xiaofan?

Nie Xiaofan said: "Second sister is busy now, it's better to go back first." ”

Lian had no choice but to let Nie Xiao'e go first. instructed Aunt Yu to send it out.

After Nie Xiao'e left, Lian looked at Nie Xiaofan, who was only eating pastries, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Nie Xiaofan smiled bitterly. I also want to know what's going on.

Nie Xiaofan said: "How is Hexian Zhai?"

Lian didn't want to dwell too much on this matter, girls, both of them are sensible. Maybe it will be fine in a few days.

As everyone knows, it is precisely because the two are sensible that they will not easily grudge. Once you have a grudge, there is really something.

Lian Shi also tasted a piece of dim sum and said with a smile: "What do you think of this pastry?"

Nie Xiaofan took the opportunity to eat another piece and said, "Sweet but not greasy, it makes people want to stop." ”

Lian Shi smiled and said proudly: "This snack is from your grandmother's hand." It's called 'potpourri cake'. It was famous in the whole capital when it came out. ”

Potpourri cake?

Nie Xiaofan also has memories that it is said that his grandmother made a hundred flower cakes for the first time, which was dedicated to the eldest prince of the Zhou family at that time.

The eldest prince is naturally the current Emperor Chengshun.

It is said that after the death of the first emperor, Emperor Chengshun was too sad and did not enter a drop of water. It was still the current Zhou Youxiang who carried a box of potpourri cakes into the palace, and persuaded Emperor Chengshun to enter a few pieces.

Since then, Baihua cake has become famous all over the world with the accession of Emperor Chengshun to the throne. My grandmother's reputation for making pastries spread.

At that time, she was just a grandmother by Mrs. Zhou's side.

Nie Xiaofan was thinking about it, and Lian said again: "Your grandmother sent this pastry early this morning. She wants to take two percent of the profit from the pastry. It's all up to you. ”

Nie Xiaofan's hand eating the pastry paused for a moment.

Is this a pie in the world?
