Chapter 542: Prepared
Mrs. Li scratched her scalp a few times with a needle, and then said: "When Jia Huan got married, she gave a lot of things. I estimate that the rest of the boys are married, and she has already been prepared, and she will not favor one over the other.
"Everyone thinks that this girl is greedy for money, but in fact, she is greedy and gives more, but she is like a money-scattering boy......"
After that, she remembered what happened during the day, and quickly took out two flower hairpins and gave them to Sister-in-law Liu and Hui Niang, "This is a reward from the queen mother in the palace, a set of twelve, and these two are for you." ”
"No, auntie, this is a reward from the palace, and it can't be passed on to us, right?" Hui Niang hurriedly excused herself, she was born in an official family and knew some rules.
But Mrs. Li waved her hand and said with a smile: "I'll keep it for you, there are not so many rules." In Kyoto, many of the rules were still followed, but now that they are here, the rules have been loosened.
"Before, there was no silver in the treasury, and I heard that the silver rewarded by the civil and military officials at the end of the year was also changed into objects, all of which came from the inner treasury, and they were marked with the inner treasury. If you don't let it be resold and transferred, you will put it at home for supply, I'm afraid you will starve to death......
"Besides, the jasper melon and the golden fruit were planted together in our village, and when they were presented to the palace, the things that the queen mother rewarded were naturally given to the whole village.
"And we have a big head at home, it's enough, brocade or something, all sent to the Hou Mansion to let the embroidery lady help cut the clothes. The rest of the muslin and the like have basically been distributed to all the families in the village, and you also have a few pieces, I have wrapped them all and will take them when I walk around for a while. ”
Hui Niang and Sister-in-law Liu didn't shirk anymore, and helped each other put on the hairpin, both of them smiling happily.
Jiayin instructed Shui Ling a few words, asked her to stay in the living room, and then went into the room and entered the space by herself.
The two pots of peonies have almost lost their leaves, and the flower branches have dried up.
Jiayin simply cut off the roots, and then planted the flower roots directly into the nursery.
Two peony roots, seeing that they began to draw new sprouts, quickly grew branches and leaves, and finally hit the buds, when they couldn't open, they were dug out by a shovel of good news, and the black soil shook down.
The reborn peony was still immersed in the moisture of the aura, but it was suddenly interrupted, and it was a little wilted.
The little fox ran over to him, and not only did he not pity him, but he also twitched his tail twice.
Jiayin hurriedly picked up three of them, found a new flower pot, mixed some black soil from the nursery with the ordinary soil, and finally loaded the peony into it, watered it with some water, and patted his ass and left.
The two peonies, the color of the country and the city, not only did no one appreciate them, but they were also thrown under the tree so casually, and the little green snake stared at each other......
On the second day, Li Lao Er was just about to take the car into the city, when he saw two more pots of peony flowers in the carriage, as well as seven or eight jasper melons and a basket of golden fruits.
He turned around and looked into the courtyard, and sure enough, the little niece was smiling brightly and waving at him.
Li Lao Er also smiled, waved a few times at the little niece and got into the carriage.
All the way into the city, to the hundred gardens, the four members of the Cao family were very busy.
It will open tomorrow, and the front yard and backyard will be cleaned, and the tables, chairs and benches will be wiped down.
Then the potted flowers on display should be divided into primary and secondary, and divided into varieties!
Which ones are to be sold on the spot, and which ones are the treasures of the town store to be left behind, they must be distinguished.
Li Lao Er came in with a pot of peony flowers in one hand, and was just about to beckon Lao Cao Touer to come forward, but Lao Cao Tou'er had sharp eyes and saw the owner first.
He still wanted to speak, but soon his eyes were glued to the potted flowers, and he couldn't pull them out!
"Owner! Where did this peony come from? Oops, oops, how did you water it? Peonies can't be watered so diligently! Old Cao Tou'er rushed forward in a few steps, carefully snatched the two pots of flowers, and then quickly put them into the shadow under the wall.
Xiao Cao also came to help, shouting, "Dad, this flower and leaf needs to be pruned, maybe it will open tomorrow, and it will definitely burst the pot!" ”
"Stinky boy, then you still need to say, hurry up and find scissors! These two pots of flowers are placed here first, and after two hours, they must be moved to the house and not exposed to the sun! Lao Cao chattered, looking at the two pots of flowers like a child.
But in a moment, he had already changed the pot three times, trying to adjust the angle, so that the peony could receive the sun's afterglow without being directly illuminated.
Li Laoer, the owner, was once again ignored by this nymphomaniac.
However, he was not angry, he turned around the front and back yards, and saw that Zheng Feng and Zheng He had put Jasper melon and Jin Guoer in the well water, so he went to look for Mr. Wen.
Mr. Wen asked his boss for a leave of absence, and gave a post asking his boss to go to Baihuayuan tomorrow to enjoy the flowers.
The boss had already heard a few words from Baihuayuan, and he was also itching.
After all, the Li family sent a lot of orchids from the academy, and there are also famous flowers that appear every five days in cyclamen, which are remembered by flower lovers all over Kyoto.
At this time, after getting the invitation, he agreed to come down, and happily let Mr. Wen leave early, and went to fish quickly.
Mr. Wen and Mr. Li met and went to visit two famous people who love flowers.
In this way, no one will dislike the opportunity to live an enjoyable life without spending money.
Therefore, the two celebrities agreed.
Li Lao Er went to Jiulian Zhai to buy a few boxes of dim sum and kept them for tomorrow to entertain guests.
It stands to reason that the fertilizer water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, and Jiayin has a snack shop, so Li Lao Er should go there to buy dim sum.
But Jiayin is very playful, and he has not been too serious about running a dim sum shop.
The traditional dim sum of the dim sum shop is really not as good as Jiulian Zhai, and the newly launched categories are too novel.
The guests who will attend the cherry blossom viewing party tomorrow are all elderly people, and the taste is not suitable.
Therefore, it can only be cheaper Jiulian Zhai, and four boxes of dim sum cost ten taels of silver!
However, Jia Yin has just robbed the recipe for imperial dim sum, as long as you put your mind out and think carefully, the business of dim sum shop will definitely be booming......
That night, Li Lao Er and Mr. Wen both lived in the backyard of Baihuayuan.
The four members of the Cao family, who had been tired for a day, went to bed early.
Li Lao Er pulled Mr. Wen to drink a lot of tea, Mr. Wen was afraid of being sleepy and refused to drink again, Li Lao Er smiled and said: "There may be a good show tonight, you will not see it if you sleep well." ”
Mr. Wen was naturally curious, and after blowing out the lights, the two spoke in a low voice.
In the middle of the night, Mr. Wen couldn't hold on anymore, so he said, "No, I'm going to sleep." ”
As a result, before he finished speaking, there was movement outside the hospital, and Mr. Wen sat up directly.
Li Lao Er was not in a hurry, got up slowly, and walked out in a long robe.
Old man Cao's father and son held scissors for pruning flowers in their hands, and were standing back to back in the middle of the courtyard, obviously wanting to go out, but not daring.
When they suddenly saw their master come out, they shouted anxiously: "Go back quickly, there are thieves!" ”
Li Lao Er waved his hand, and then asked outside the courtyard, "Can you catch someone?" ”
Someone replied: "Uncle, don't worry, there are four people in total, and they have all been caught." ”
"Bring it in!" Li Lao Er commanded.
Old man Cao's father and son understood and knew that the owner had already made arrangements, so they had the courage to hurry to open the door.
Soon, six guards came in from outside the door, and four men in black were escorted.
