However, when it was about to have dinner, Mama Yu, who was beside Rong's, came to Lin Chonghan's courtyard with an anxious expression.

"Miss Cousin forgives me," the corners of Mama Yu's sleeves became messy because of her movements, "Mrs. asked me to ask you if you have seen the eldest young master today." ”

Lin Chonghan put down the book, and a sense of foreboding suddenly surged in his heart: "No, I went out to play around today, and I didn't see Cousin Heming - is something wrong?" ”

"It's not really," Mama Yu, who learned that she didn't know where Xiao Heming went, became a little stiff, "It's just that the family wants to entertain the people from the Wang family tonight, but the wife has not been able to find the young master." ”

"Since Miss Cousin doesn't know, then I'll leave first, old woman, don't forget to go to dinner together when you go back."

Yu's mother was about to leave after speaking, Lin Chonghan thought about it and stopped her, saying: "I went out with Cousin He Ming before, and I know that he often goes to a restaurant on the street, called Deyue Lou, you might as well ask your aunt to send someone to find it." ”

When she got the news, the anxious look on her face eased a lot, and she thanked Lin Chonghan again and again, and then went out.

"Before, this old woman called Miss Xiao Fubiao," looking at her back, Haruhi couldn't help but snort softly, "When she wasn't allowed to go out, she was really magnificent, and those who didn't know thought she was the master." ”

"Why are you nodding at you now?"

Lin Chonghan felt that the time was almost up, so she asked Chunri to change her clothes and prepare to go to Old Taijun She.

"The subordinates have always put the wishes of the master first," she said with a faint expression, "This is also the attitude of our eldest aunt." ”

Kasuga looked at her face and didn't dare to say more.

*

The person from the Wang family is Li Ci, the sister of the Wang family's housewife, who married to Qiantang with her sister, and the sisters can be regarded as having a companion.

Li Ci was born in a high-ranking family since she was a child, and the conditions of her husband's family were not bad, this afternoon, she walked up and down behind the old lady, and she was able to find out the Xiao family clearly.

"It's not good to ask you to come to Suzhou for a run," Rong's heart was already crazy, but his face was still not obvious, "You sit with me and try our Suzhou cuisine." ”

Li Ci sat next to her, and at a glance she could see all the scenes in the house, and she saw the maids standing silently and respectfully, and when they entered the door, even a few little maids under the corridor did not say anything, which showed that the Rong family was strict.

She nodded secretly in her heart, although her little niece is going to marry someone who has no official status, but these families don't value these, as long as the Xiao family has a good lintel and a good family style, it is a family that can get along.

It's just—

Li Ci asked about something: "I've also been shopping for a long time, why don't you see your eldest young master?" - His name is Xiao Heming, right? ”

"Yes," Rong took over with a smile, "It's good to call Xiao Heming." You know, these young people don't have a qualitative—"

When Li Ci's face changed slightly, she continued to smile and said: "Now April is the season for puffer fish to be listed, and recently there are a few new fashionable dishes in Deyuelou, he must be greedy and secretly ran out to eat." ”

"Oh, I see," Li Ci's heart was put down, as long as Xiao Heming didn't go to Golan Washe, everything was easy to say, "Young people, it's normal to be greedy, it's not good to keep them in place." ”

As soon as Lin Chonghan entered the door, he saw a few people sitting in one place talking and laughing, but the smile on Rong's face felt stiff no matter how he looked at it, and the atmosphere was a little deliberate, and it was not very harmonious.

She said hello to everyone and sat down down.

"You try this sweet soup with chicken head rice," the maidservant served a plate of dishes, and Rong's heart was as if he had been pardoned, "I knew you were coming, so I specially asked the people below to go to the street to buy some fresh chicken head rice." ”

She personally brought a bowl to Li Ci, asking the other party to taste this fresh Suzhou food, hoping that the other party would temporarily bypass the topic of Xiao Heming after eating this snack.

Li Ci carefully scooped some chicken head rice with a spoon, and after tasting it, he was full of praise: "It's really fresh, but I actually ate a little bit of osmanthus flavor, I think I should have eaten it wrong?" ”

The big stone in Rong's heart finally fell to the ground, and she was busy smiling and changed the topic: "It's not that you ate it wrong, but there is osmanthus nectar here." ”

"Last year, I asked the little maid to pick some osmanthus flowers and come back, and then make osmanthus nectar." "To make this dish, you have to go to the market to buy some fresh chicken head rice, and then ask the people in the small kitchen to boil the chicken head rice to a rotten point and add some osmanthus nectar to it." ”

Rong added: "After the osmanthus nectar goes down, you can't boil it any more, otherwise it will spoil the taste." ”

Lin Chonghan listened intently while eating shrimp, and felt that there was still a lot of knowledge in cooking, and Rong, who was talking dryly, looked at Li Ci and seemed to listen to it with relish, and her heart was completely settled.

There must be no big mess.

"Oh no, no!" Outside the door, a small guy suddenly stumbled in, "Old lady, wife, young master, young master, he is gone!" ”

Li Ci, who was enjoying the sweet soup, accidentally dropped the spoon in his hand and fell into the bowl.

Rong's even more Huo Ran stood up, she was like a cat with her tail stepped on, stretched out her hand and pointed at him and scolded: "You bastard who has been blinded by lard, your uncle just went out to play a few laps, why didn't you run to the front hall to disturb the distinguished guests!" ”

The little guy knelt down and knocked his head a few times, and wanted to cry without tears: "It's really not a small nonsense, in fact, it's the eldest young master who left a letter." ”

"What is not nonsense!" Rong's did not relent, "Your uncle loves to write poems when he has nothing to do, and you can take what he writes seriously?" ”

Lin Chonghan swallowed the shrimp in his mouth, feeling that her eldest aunt must be trying to forcibly fool this matter this time.

"Where's the letter?"

Li Ci gently put down the sweet soup in his hand, and his expression made people unable to see the joy and anger: "You can show it to me." ”

"In-laws-" Rong wanted to speak and stopped, but was stopped by Li Ci raising his hand, she said: "Please allow me to be rude, it is really a big matter, I have to ask clearly." ”

The Rong family wanted to say more, but the old lady She Laotaijun, who had been sitting at the top and had not spoken all along, opened her mouth: "Eldest daughter-in-law, you let the family ask clearly!" ”

Marriage is not a trivial matter, and it is even related to the second half of the life of the little lady of the Wang family, as the aunt of the other party, how can Li Ci let others not pursue it to the end?

The little guy on the ground swallowed his saliva and said, "The villain knows a few words, wife, old lady, the young master is afraid that he will leave Suzhou directly." ”

As he spoke, he took out a letter from his cuff and carefully handed it to Li Ci, who opened it and found that Xiao Heming really wanted to leave Suzhou.
