Parents are busy farming

Chapter 588: Big Maid Hui

Mrs. Hong was happy to see her two daughters-in-law competing in battles of wits and courage.

Then he said to the other people standing: "You also want to go see what Zifen has prepared for you?"

Because Mrs. Hong saw that there were many boxes on the table, she knew that Xiao Wu had prepared gifts for everyone.

When everyone heard their ancestor say this, they boldly gathered around, reached for the gift box with their own names, opened it and looked at it.

The gifts from their peers are basically the same. The granddaughter-in-law's gifts are all new fabrics of various designs and colors from the weaving workshop, but some are of different colors and weaved in different designs and colors.

Because it is a new model, it is unique and unique in the entire capital.

For women in the back house, it is either clothes or jewelry. This gift is truly sent to the heart.

Seeing that everyone was happy, Madam Hong missed Xiao Wu even more.

"Okay, it's getting late. Everyone, grab some gifts and go back quickly! Especially you young girls, it's time to go and be beautiful, and you don't have to accompany the old lady!"

After everyone got the rare fabric, they naturally wanted to make it into clothes as soon as possible. There was a banquet in a few days, so it would be good for them to wear it when they went out.

Everyone dispersed, and the eldest maid stepped forward with a gift box in her hand, similar to the one held by the eldest lady.

"I fell in love with your eldest wife's gift and actually intercepted it!" Mrs. Hong joked.

She just saw the box in Mrs. Hong's hand.

"Ancestor, don't you know the slave yet? The slave is not that kind of person. This is what the slave saw in the gift just now. Just because he found two similar boxes with different titles written on them, he quietly put them away Inside the sleeve, I won’t take it out until the eldest lady leaves.”

After listening to the maid's words, Mrs. Hong nodded her forehead.

"You ghost!"

What if she could sit on the old lady's side and be the most pampered maid? He is careful and sometimes thinks more than the old woman thinks.

Even worse than Liu Menger.

"I thought the things inside should be the same, so the fifth lady used the same box."

The maid said as she opened the box and showed the old lady what was inside.

Inside is a ‘health pill’.

No wonder the maid was so careful. It turned out that the official in the county was Old Mrs. Hong, so Mrs. Hong naturally had the right to speak.

Now Mrs. Hong still has a royal decree, and she is also the mother-in-law of several masters. However, this royal decree was given by her own man, not the same as that given by her own son.

Fortunately, Mrs. Hong is not greedy for power, and she handed over the housekeeping rights to Mrs. Hong early in the county.

After returning to Beijing, Mr. Hong Da worked in the Ministry of Household Affairs. Mrs. Hong Da's face was bright and she also had the right to speak.

Judging from her performance in the year since she returned to Beijing, she has become more and more tough in her words.

Mrs. Hong took the box and looked at the pills inside and said, "Hey! Xiaowu is too sincere and has no scheming at all. Who knows how to treat her well, but she still wants to treat others with all her heart!"

The eldest maid deeply disagreed with Mrs. Hong's statement, but now Mrs. Hong was like an old man who was worried about her grandchildren, so it was naturally difficult for her to expose her.

"Miss Zifen has a very good temper. Look, not only our eldest lady likes it, but also the second lady likes it. Even the eldest lady always cares about it. Is there anyone in Fangyan in the whole capital or even in the entire Hong family who can be treated as well as Miss Biao?" It’s a match!”

Mrs. Hong heard this as a kind of comfort.

He held the eldest maid's hand and stood up and said, "Come on, follow me to the warehouse. Let's prepare something for the girl."

After Wang Chuanxing took Pang Chao to see Mrs. Pang, he took him to Mrs. Hong's study.

Because all the masters of the Hong family were resting at home today, the brothers gathered together in Mr. Hong's study. Some played chess, some wrote, and some talked with Mr. Hong.

The people playing chess were none other than Mr. Hong Da and Mr. Hong Er.

In the past, the two brothers thought that there was a difference between legitimate concubine and concubine, and there was a big gap in their identities.

But since Mr. Hong Er was promoted to officialdom, the relationship between the two has not become estranged, but has become closer.

When Wang Chuanxing arrived and the boy knocked on the door and entered the pass, the two were fighting in the most intense stage.

When Mr. Hong heard that Wang Chuanxing had brought a handsome man to see him, he quickly asked the servant to bring them in.

The two people who were playing chess quickly put down their flags when they heard that Wang Chuanxing was coming and sat on the chairs next to them.

After all, he is an uncle, so he doesn't have to worry so much in front of his brothers and father, but he still has to be careful in front of Xiaobei.

After Wang Chuanxing brought Pang Chao in, he greeted the elders present and introduced Pang Chao.

After Pang Chao bowed to several adults, he was arranged to sit aside.

At this time, Wang Chuanxing narrated to everyone present the story that he and Ye Zifen wanted to drive Fu Ke Lai to the capital.

"It's a good idea to bring Fook Lai from the county to the capital!" Mr. Hong said first.

As for how the good old man knew that Fu Ke was here? Or was it because Wang Chuanjia once wrote to him and mentioned how delicious the seafood in Fuke Lai was? How luxurious Ye Zifen built Fu Ke Lai.

Listening to the boy's tone in the letter, it was a pity that he begged for bones so early.

At that time, he was thinking, 'When Fokkerai arrives in the capital, he will immediately go and taste the delicious seafood in that boy's mouth. ’

Speaking of seafood, he had naturally eaten it as a court official, but the people who cooked it at that time just steamed them. They tasted very fresh, but he didn't taste how delicious they were.

"Thank you very much, sir, for the compliment!"

After all, Mr. Hong has been the county magistrate for so many years, and everyone still places him in that important position. It is not an exaggeration to call him "Old Master".

Wang Chuanxing said with a smile: "The idea is a good one, but the conditions for building Fukelai are too harsh!"

Mr. Hong Er glanced sideways at his nephew, but he didn't respond.

However, Mr. Hong and Mr. Hong valued Wang Chuanxing very much, so naturally they wanted to ask what the harsh conditions were.

Pang Chao quickly explained the reason.

After listening to Pang Chao's explanation, several senior members of the Hong family also felt that the conditions for opening Fuke Lai were too harsh.

Mr. Hong Er played with a small bamboo handle in his hand and said: "With your request, it is not easy to find a place along the river, not to mention the pier."

However, Grandpa Hong's words gave Pang Chao a new inspiration. It was impossible for them to meet Fu Ke directly on the dock now.

Is it possible to build a new wharf along the river while building Fukelai?

When this thought came out, he even shocked himself.
