This is Xiaomeng's sister's long comment plus more, thank you for the sister's long comment!

As soon as Zheng Shizi arrived at the flower hall in the front yard, he saw two young men in green shirts and robes already sitting and waiting.

He walked briskly over, and the two young men immediately stood up to greet him.

"Shizi. ”

"Eh, don't be polite to the two senior brothers, just call me Tiansheng, sit down. ”

One of the two men in green shirts and robes is handsome, not Xiao Bojian, and the other has a square face and thick eyebrows, looking old, and it is Qi Minhe, who lives with Xiao Bojian.

Qi Minhe is from the Jiangnan clan, and the clan is deeply rooted. Both of them are top-notch students in Guozijian. Now they are all in their twenties, and it is the time for young people to show their ambitions.

Qi Minhe saw that Zheng Shizi was carefully carrying a food box in his hand, and said strangely: "What is Tiansheng holding in this hand?"

Zheng Shizi smiled, invited the two of them to sit at the table, and asked the maid to bring the tea set over to make a tea.

Put the food box carefully on the table, "This is the dim sum of Jing'anbo Mansion." ”

Qi Minhe was born in a big family, he never gets tired of eating, he is extremely particular about food, and he has been studying in Guozijian for more than three years, so he has studied the good food in Shengjing City thoroughly. Jing'anbo's dim sum has long been famous, but he has never had the opportunity to taste it, and now he is naturally very surprised to hear it.

Xiao Bojian was stunned for a moment, and Jing'anbo Mansion ...... It is Chu Lian's husband's family. His mind flashed to the young man he had seen with Chu Lian in the British Mansion that day.

His eyebrows and eyes were straight, his temperament was cold, and his thin lips were cold, so he stood between him and Chu Lian, holding Chu Lian's hand and leaving, so that he couldn't see her again.

Zheng Shizi found that Xiao Bojian was distracted, "Senior Brother Xiao?"

"Well, today is stained with Tiansheng's light. ”

Zheng Shizi smiled heartily, opened the food box that was still cool, and specially stuffed a thick brocade cloth into the food box to isolate the heat and keep it cool.

When Zheng Shizi saw the dim sum inside, he was stunned for a moment, "This ......"

"Tiansheng, what's wrong?"

Zheng Shizi was shocked and took out the dim sum in the food box, "Look. ”

Rao has eaten a lot of dim sum, even the dim sum in the Ouchi Palace, but he has never seen such a beautiful and peculiar dim sum.

Xiao Bojian and Qi Minhe were also stunned.

Qi Minhe exclaimed: "No wonder they all say that the dim sum in Jing'anbo Mansion is a must among the noble families, and it is really extraordinary when I see it today." ”

The transparent snack like a drop of water held by the lotus leaf trembles, which is really like a new lotus dewdrop, full of elegance.

Zheng Shizi frowned slightly.

Qi Minhe saw that his expression was different, and he was puzzled: "Tiansheng?"

Zheng Shizi glanced up at the two of them, "It's not a secret, two senior brothers, I have eaten the dim sum of Jing'an Bo Mansion many times, and it is indeed as delicious as it is rumored outside, but it has always been a fixed few styles, and even I have seen this kind of dim sum for the first time." ”

As he spoke, Zheng Shizi recalled what his grandmother said casually when she gave him the snacks. The grandmother said that this snack was made by the new daughter-in-law of Jing'an Bofu.

Thinking of this, Zheng Shizi hurriedly asked the personal servant to go to the old lady in the backyard to ask for clarification.

"Oh, could it be that the dim sum in Jing'anbo Mansion has changed its tricks?" Qi Minhe smiled.

"My grandmother told me that this snack was made by the third grandmother of Jing'anbo Mansion. ”

Xiao Bojian stiffened, the other two didn't notice, but Qi Minhe joked: "The third grandmother of Jing'anbo Mansion, huh? This is not the granddaughter of the old British duke?"

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Xiao Bojian, "Bojian, the old British Duke is your mentor, have you ever seen this ingenious third grandmother in the British Mansion?"

Xiao Bojian's body stiffened for a moment, and then he said with a normal face: "Although I am temporarily living in the British Mansion, how can a foreign man enter the backyard of the National Mansion casually, Tiansheng is not joking." ”

He has a frank face, and he is very good-looking, and it is difficult to make people suspicious. Qi Minhe hurriedly apologized, "I was abrupt." ”

The three of them were chatting and looking at the maid's sencha, and the little maid who went to the old lady of Zheng Guogong's mansion to inquire also came back.

"How?" asked Zheng Shizi.

The little servant bent down slightly and replied respectfully: "Back to the world, the cook lady who is good at making dim sum in Jing'anbo Mansion died in the kitchen two days ago, and the dim sum brought back by the old lady today is indeed made by the third grandmother of Jing'anbo Mansion." And also informed that this spot is called Shingen cake. ”

Zheng Shizi was a little surprised, such a cook said that it was gone, but it was a pity. But a cook, to put it bluntly, is a subordinate in these big families, and if it's gone, it's gone.

Zheng Shizi didn't say anything, and waved his hand to let the little guy go down.

"Come, don't talk about it, I heard that it's not good to put this snack for a long time, two senior brothers, let's try it. ”

took a small silver spoon and tasted it separately, Zheng Shizi and Qi Minhe's eyes lit up, and they praised it for being delicious.

This cool and smooth Shingen cake with sencha has a special taste.

Only Xiao Bojian had bitterness in his mouth, and a dark light crossed the depths of his eyes.

Thinking of the woman who has now become the third grandmother of Jing'an Bo Mansion, she is delicate and gentle, bold and careful, if there is no marriage, would she have washed her hands and made soup for him now.

He will be the first person to taste this novel and delicious Shingen cake, and he will also be the one who shows off his good wife in front of his classmates.

Covered by wide sleeves, he clenched one fist tightly until the joints turned white.

And Chu Lian, who eats and sleeps well in Songtao Garden, Jing'an Mansion, doesn't know this.

Chu Lian, who had a snack with the maids and grandmothers in the afternoon, went back to the bedroom.

There is a small study next to her and He Saburo's bedroom, which is used for her on weekdays, the place is not big, but it is adjacent to the bedroom, which is very convenient.

In the afternoon, Chu Lian spent time in the small study, and on the bookshelf of the small study room were some books she brought from the British Mansion, as well as the Jing'anbo Mansion, and there were even some rubbings of famous calligraphers in a pear blossom wooden box on the lowest floor.

Although Chu Lian's handwriting in the original text is not very outstanding, there is also a handmade hairpin with a beautiful hairpin.

Although Chu Lian doesn't have any big ambitions, she also understands that she really can't handle this handwriting now. Even some of the traditional characters in the book are incomprehensible...... and often guessed.

So, in the afternoon, the maids were sent away, leaving only Xiyan to guard outside the small study, and found a calligraphy book to practice in the small study.

I wrote for an hour, and then threw the big characters of Lian into the charcoal basin and burned them. Chu Lian has a good memory, and after practicing for this hour, she has memorized more than 100 words, and she is quite satisfied with her progress.

After practicing big characters, Chu Lian asked Xiyan to take out the box of silver coins and jewelry boxes, thinking about calculating his current net worth.

Mama Gui was also watching from the side.

First on the public account, after the marriage, the account book of eating and drinking on the third room side will be in Chu Lian's hands, and the share will be drawn from the public account of Jing'an Bofu every month, of course, with this stroke, the example of the maid and wife in a courtyard will also come out of the public account of the third room.

At present, there are less than eighty taels of silver left in the public account, and these are still because there was only one master in the previous three rooms, He Changdi, and there were not many people who served, and there were a few more years.

Otherwise, according to the general situation, the silver divided in this public account should not be enough, and the masters need to make up for it themselves.

Chu Lian put down the account book and asked Xiyan to open the box where the silver was placed on weekdays, a huge box, several layers, but only the first layer put a few silver ingots plus scattered silver nuggets and a few strings of copper coins.

It adds up to more than fifty taels.

The rest of the silver money was the five hundred taels of silver tickets given by Rong's sister-in-law on the day of the wedding, and one hundred taels were given to Gui Mama, and she still had four hundred taels left.

I didn't save any money when I was a girl in the British government, and I was a mother who went early, so I didn't have any silver taels by my side.

The total amount of silver on this body is more than four hundred and fifty taels.

Chu Lian didn't have anything unusual on his face, but Mama Gui and Xiyan around him were full of forbearance.

The girl has long lost her mother, and she is not favored in the Guogong Mansion, and the third lady of the steproom who entered the door is holding the dowry of the third grandmother, the girl is weak, and the third master is not on the girl's side, and the house thinks that the sixth lady married into the Jing'anbo Mansion to pick up a big bargain, and entered the golden nest and silver nest, and the young ladies in the second room are jealous, and naturally they will not give more dowry to the sixth lady.

If it weren't for the Jing'an Bo Mansion posting a little here, the dowry would have been a joke.

Poor Chu Lian, a concubine married less than a favored concubine.

After getting married, the third young master still treats Miss Six like this.

Fortunately, Miss Six saw it, otherwise she would rush here, and she would not be angry.

Chu Lian didn't care what the grandmothers and maids around him thought.

She took the last box.

This is the box she holds her jewelry, which she has saved since she was a child.

More than ten years, just like that. Seeing this, Chu Lian was a little genuinely sympathetic to the original owner.

Anyway, she is also the concubine of the princess's mansion, but her dress looks too shabby. No wonder this girl later had a distorted personality and was silently perverted.

Anyone in such an environment will have a change in personality.

Took the close-fitting copper key and opened the box.

The box is exquisitely made, with a total of ten layers, each of which is wrapped with copper edges, and is carved with intricate patterns.

The bottom box is the jewelry she wore when she was born, and according to Gui Mama, she wore it when she was one to three years old.

When I was a child, I didn't wear much jewelry, only a few pairs of red gold bracelets and anklets, some collars and gold beads, and I turned them over, and there were even some jade ornaments full of color. It can be seen that when the original owner was born, he still had some weight in the Guogong Mansion, after all, he was the first child of the third master.

Looking at the second layer, there is jewelry worn after the age of three.

There are more headdresses, but it is obvious that these jewels are not as delicate as they were in childhood, and the later they go, the less good they are, and when they reach the age of ten, they do not save a single piece of gold jewelry for a year......

The jewelry in this box, because it was used before, is basically not worn now, Chu Lian picked a few commemorative jade ornaments to keep, and separated the gold and silver jewelry in this box, and gave it to Gui Mama, so that she could take it out and melt it, and beat it into gold and silver nuggets for future use.

After sorting it out like this, Chu Lian went to look at the jewelry box he was using now.
