Golden Pink Building

Looking at the bird's nest in the bowl, Qingqiu suddenly thought of Baochai's telling her to use the bird's nest to nourish her body, feeling a burst of emotion in her heart.Although Jia's mother loves her, she can only quietly ask someone to send one or two bird's nests every day. Yuanyang also quietly told Zijuan: "The old lady can save one bite from her mouth, so Miss Lin is on my mind. Our family's You know the thing, there are too many people, and the old lady hurts Baoyu and Sister Feng. They are still like black-eyed chickens. Miss Lin is weak, and she can't bear the idleness. You just come to get the bird's nest every day and don't call people Got it." Although Mother Jia felt sorry for herself, she just kept it quiet and didn't dare to let others know.Although Mrs. Bai is a mother-in-law now, she can love herself wholeheartedly without hiding it.

"Why are you in a daze, child? I treat you well because you are Shaoyi's daughter-in-law. We have a small family, so sometimes it is unavoidable to be deserted. But a small family also has the benefits of a small family. There are fewer people, right and wrong, and you In the future, I will have a better life." Bai Shaoyi echoed from the side: "Why did Mom suddenly feel emotional today? We are in school, and we can go home every week to see. Sister Xiuzhu has come down, today's complexion Not bad!" Said Xiuzhu came down from above, compared with yesterday's sad and sad, Xiuzhu was completely quiet.

Mrs. Bai smiled and said: "Why don't you sleep a little longer, you are not used to getting up early." Xiuzhu thought for a long time yesterday and decided to let Yanxi go first, or Qingqiu was right, it was all because of herself If you are too careful, you will worry about gains and losses and make others annoying.So Xiuzhu made up her mind to put Yanxi down temporarily and sort out her mood.She smiled and said, "I sleep well and get up early." Everyone sat down to eat together.After the meal, Mrs. Bai came to pick up Xiuzhu and go home in person. When she came in, she almost stared out her eyes in surprise. Xiuzhu actually sat on the sofa talking and laughing with Qingqiu. You must know that Xiuzhu still mentioned Qingqiu a few days ago. A look of disdain.

Waiting to sit down, Mrs. Bai found that Xiuzhu, who had always been moody, had become gentle. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief and wondered, what method did Qingqiu use to make the spoiled young lady become sensible?Mrs. Bai is a very traditional woman. She has to serve her parents-in-law as soon as she enters the house. Her parents-in-law passed away one after another when they were newly married.Without the protection of his parents, Bai Xiongqi can only work harder to find a way out for himself.Along the way, Mrs. Bai has finally grown the embroidery beads, and Bai Xiongqi's career has also gained momentum.It's just that she didn't know how to raise her children at the beginning, and she was worried that others would treat her sister-in-law badly, so she didn't dare to discipline Xiuzhu very much.Unexpectedly, Xiuzhu's personality changed later, and she could do everything possible to meet her requirements when facing Xiuzhu, so she couldn't communicate with her anymore.Now that Xiuzhu is quite sensible, Mrs. Bai knows that Qingqiu must have persuaded Xiuzhu.Therefore, Mrs. Bai admired Qingqiu's character and behavior more and more from the bottom of her heart.

Hearing that Bai Shaoyi and Qingqiu are going back to school today, Mrs. Bai loves her son very much. Even though the school allocated a dormitory to Bai Shaoyi, where can Mrs. Bai see her?She simply bought a house near the school, which was regarded as a love nest for her son and daughter-in-law.In this way, it is convenient for Bai Shaoyi and Qingqiu to go to school every day, and they don't have to worry about being disturbed when they go home. "That's also a housewarming celebration. I want to join in the fun. If there's anything missing in your new house, I'll give it to you as a gift." Mrs. Bai patted her chest to make sure.

"I saw a very delicate tableware when I went shopping last time. My sister-in-law bought that and gave it to them. I'll go buy a set of tea sets for you. Isn't my cousin used to tea every day and afternoon?" Bai Xiongqi embroidered Zhu has always been able to spend whatever he has, and the biggest pleasure of Xiuzhu is not only playing with Yanxi, but also shopping and shopping.Mrs. Bai smiled fondly at Xiuzhu: "As long as you like it, you can do whatever you want, just put it in your brother's account."

Mrs. Bai thought of something, and said to Qingqiu: "You just moved here, and you still have a lot of things to do. I'll ask a few people to help you for a few days. By the way, sweet-scented osmanthus will follow Qingqiu too." Mrs. Bai next to her Listening to what my aunt said, she paused the hand holding the teacup, she thought to herself and said, this is not an easy person for my aunt.Uncle's smooth sailing as a diplomat outside is partially due to the help of this aunt.Is there any mother-in-law in the world who doesn't bother her daughter-in-law?Osmanthus fragrans is young, well-behaved, placed next to the young couple, it is obvious that the mother-in-law loves the daughter-in-law, and Qingqiu's family must not be able to marry her as a dowry girl.Qingqiu is still a new daughter-in-law, how does it feel to have so many cute girls around her?

"Mom, I've always hated being surrounded by people. We live very close to the school, and students and colleagues often come over. You also know that the new principal of the school is going to make a big career, yes The old-fashioned manner in the school is very annoying. The principal even started the Jinde Association, but I joined it. Waiting for them to see a group of servants making a fuss!" Bai Shaoyi blocked Mrs. Bai's suggestion before Qingqiu could speak. Going back: "I think it's enough to just keep the driver, and at most hire an old lady."

"Forget it, who are you planning to ask to wash clothes and cook, and you also said that there are a lot of guests here. Are you going to cook and return them yourself, or ask Qingqiu to light a fire to cook, and boil water and make tea for you? Your principal He is a good man, but sometimes he is too impulsive. Hiring a few servants is not a treasonous thing. Even Europe and the United States have servants. According to me, being a servant is just a profession. Do you think that using servants is humiliating others? , That’s because you have prejudice in your heart. What do you think Qingqiu?” Mrs. Bai kicked the ball to Qingqiu.The girl's matter was brought up again, Qingqiu understood that Mrs. Bai must keep the sweet-scented osmanthus by her side.

Mrs. Bai secretly observed Qingqiu's face, who knew that there was no abnormality on Qingqiu's face, she smiled and said to Jin Ying: "Just do as my mother said, but I think that the professors in the school who have a lot of families will be there Buying a house in the city to house a family, I heard that it is enough to hire only one or two old women. With a coachman, all the servants are no more than three or four people. Although my mother loves us juniors, she can't be too public outside. Moved in a few days, or Shaoyi’s friends came, or some professors came to visit. I didn’t understand anything when I first came here. Naturally, I had to ask a few people around my mother to help me for a few days. But if things go on like this, it will inevitably be too much It's conspicuous. In the future, only two people will be enough, one driver, and Osmanthus is a girl, won't it be too hard?" Qingqiu wanted to worry about her mother-in-law's face, Bai Shaoyi came forward to help her speak, Qingqiu was already very happy .It would be a lie to say that she has no doubts about Osmanthus fragrans, but reason and habits make Qingqiu not show any dissatisfaction on her face.

Jin Ying also observed Qingqiu's expression, Qingqiu's words were reasonable, and her eyes were sincere without any dissatisfaction, she thought: "You are right, in fact, you don't have to be harsh on yourself. No one is a fool, what you said Those professors usually come from their hometowns outside. In fact, it is not out of the ordinary to hire a few old mothers as servants for the salary of a professor. You are too frugal. People who understand the truth say that you are humble and not proud. Those who specialize in bad things , I will still find fault and say that you are pretending. According to me, there is no need for two or three, except for Osmanthus fragrans, the driver Shao Yi is used to, and I will send an old lady there." Mrs. Bai waved her hand firmly. , the matter of serving servants around Bai Shaoyi and Qingqiu is settled.

Bai Shaoyi quietly squeezed Qingqiu's hand: "Mom has always been a master at handling housework, we just listen to her. It's getting late, Qingqiu and I should go." Said Bai Shaoyi pulled Qingqiu into the car Back home.

Xiuzhu sat for a while and went shopping in Mrs. Bai's hammer car. Jin Ying looked at his niece and daughter-in-law and said what happened yesterday: "It's not that I praised my daughter-in-law. Qingqiu is indeed a generous child. Xiuzhu's age is also Not too young, what are you and Xiongqi going to do?"

Mrs. Bai sighed helplessly and said: "What else can I do, I just hope that Xiuzhu will be sensible soon, and I will trouble Sister Qingqiu more in the future. Xiuzhu can still listen to what she said, but why should Auntie be here?" There is a girl next to their young couple. It is different now than before, the government says it wants to abolish human trafficking and keeping slaves. If the young couple is upset because of sweet-scented osmanthus, why bother?"

Jin Ying glanced at his niece and daughter-in-law, and said slowly: "It's a long time to see people's hearts. I only have one son, Shao Yi, and I definitely hope that he can marry a virtuous wife. I only give her a girl and she will treat you in front of you and Xiu Yi." She lost face in front of Zhu, and after Shao Yi said something to that woman, why didn't she start crying with Shao Yi immediately? As a daughter-in-law, I don't believe that my husband is suspicious all day long, the house is not peaceful, and I go out to make people laugh I've never seen that narrow-minded woman who can help her husband improve. If she doesn't understand the general situation, she can only hold back. I also have a sense of proportion. Osmanthus is a responsible girl. It's fun, I will give her a generous dowry to marry. If Qingqiu can't even subdue a girl, such a person is not worthy of being my daughter-in-law."

Mrs. Bai understood her aunt's plan, and she said with emotion: "What my aunt said is that we all came here like that. I can definitely understand Auntie's painstaking efforts when I look at Qingqiu. She has a sense of proportion in her work and is sincere to people, so there must be no problem." .By the way, I remembered that the youngest mistress of the Jin family was looking at her girl disliked. I heard that Fengju was interested in Xiaolian, and wanted to take her into his room."

"That's right, let me just say that Xiufang used to take Xiaolian with her wherever she went. That girl is very pretty, and she has gotten better and better in recent years. Fengju has a criminal record. Before she got married, her brother-in-law's There are a lot of things to do, so I put him alone in Guangzhou, but Fengju only needs maids to take care of him. There are several maids around him who are serving him, just like Jia Baoyu." This kind of thing about a rich family is common in Jin Ying.

The next day Mrs. Bai came to Bai Shaoyi and Qingqiu's Xiaojia early in the morning, then Bai Xiongqi's wife and Xiuzhu also came, and after a while the four young ladies from the Jin family also came.Qingqiu was busy receiving guests and receiving gifts.Michiyuki sent a set of Japanese tea sets.She looked at the yard: "It used to be a royal garden, and there were many houses built by ministers and princes. This is the origin of your house. It is well built. Compared with those paints and paintings, it has a Jiangnan charm. Brick and black tiles, true-colored colonnade. It matches the two of you very well."

Qingqiu served tea to Mrs. Bai first, and then served well-boiled black tea to the guests one by one: "This place is very close to the school, and the house is fairly spacious. We didn't clean it up too much, maybe the previous owner was not bad. Why do you make an appointment? It seems that everyone has come. The wedding has already troubled everyone, and I thought that everyone was busy, so I didn't take it as a special thing."

"Yesterday we happened to meet Xiuzhu when we went out. I heard that my cousin moved to a new house. We all came to congratulate you. We thought that you are building a small family by yourself and you must need things for your home. Xiuzhu's sister-in-law gave you Chinese tableware. Fifth sister Liumei and Liumei will give you western tableware, I will give you tea sets, Bamei will give you napkins and tablecloths, and sister Xiuzhu will give you vase decorations. Your house is elegant but elegant, but it is a pity that it is empty. You see these things It will have a more family atmosphere. In the future, we can often come to your place to sit and sit. We are relatives, and we share the same interests, but we want to get closer." Mrs. Bai liked the girls of the Jin family very much, and said as she listened. In other words, she also nodded in agreement.

Bai Shaoyi saw that Qingqiu was getting along well with her mother and the others, so she found an excuse and slipped into the study to read, leaving the living room for a group of women to talk.Mei Li looked at the furnishings in the living room. She saw some exquisite knick-knacks on the antique shelves against the wall, and she couldn't help but go up to take a closer look. She weighed something like a pen holder: "Biao sister-in-law, how do you put the pen holder?" Put it on the shelf?" Osmanthus fragrans smiled at the side and said: "Miss Eight, that is the big sea cup carved by the master for Dayu's water control, not a pen holder. Our young mistress said that thing was used by the ancients to drink tea. The pillars are straight up and down. It looks similar to a pen holder, but if you take a closer look, it will be shorter if you make it into a pen holder.” Said Osmanthus put a brush in the cup, Mei Li laughed, the top edge of the cup only reached the brush Half waist, compared with the pen holder, it is really too short.

Meili looked at the sweet-scented osmanthus curiously, and saw that she was wearing a goose-yellow gown, a pair of stone-blue trousers on the ground, and a white apron around her waist. She was pretty and lively.She asked curiously: "You are cousin's girl, and the color of your clothes matches well."

"My name is Osmanthus fragrans. I used to serve my wife, but now I serve young mistress. This was given to me by young mistress, and it is brand new. Our young mistress treats me very well." Osmanthus fragrans smiled slightly: "Miss Eight's tea is cold, I Go get you a change." Runzhi said to Daozhi, "I don't know what Qingqiu has to make people like her when they see her. Even a girl is full of compliments on her."

"Actually, it's nothing. Qingqiu treats people sincerely. Do you think any young mistress in the capital is willing to dress up the girls around her sincerely? Qingqiu doesn't treat osmanthus as an outsider. Although osmanthus is a girl, she is not stupid. Who treats her Well, don’t you know?” Daozhi got married after all, seeing things more thoroughly than Runzhi and Minzhi.

"Speaking of girl, when I think about it, sister-in-law doesn't want to see Xiao Lian anymore. Compared with Osmanthus fragrans, sister-in-law treats Xiao Lian almost like nothing." Minzhi added quietly, Mrs. Bai was talking to Xiuzhu's sister-in-law, When she heard the words of the young ladies of the Jin family, the corners of her mouth could not help but curl up slightly.This daughter-in-law is great!It seems that she should take back the sweet-scented osmanthus in a few days.

In the study, Bai Shaoyi casually picked up a book and lay on the rocking chair and read it casually, talking and laughing from the living room came back intermittently with the breeze.He raised his eyes to look at the wedding photo with Qingqiu on the table, and heaved a long sigh of satisfaction, it turns out that it feels really good to be at home.Just when Bai Shaoyi was satisfied and enjoying family life, the phone on the table suddenly rang.

As soon as Bai Shaoyi held the receiver and heard the voice over there, the sun on her face suddenly became cloudy. Zhao Yihan said word by word: "Shaoyi, I want to see you right away." Her voice couldn't hear the emotion, Bai Shaoyi Feeling bored in my heart: "I have something to do at home today, I'm afraid I won't be able to go out. If you have something to say, you can discuss it on the phone."

"That's right, you're just newly married, and today is another happy housewarming. Congratulations on forming a small family. Today must be a lot of relatives who came to congratulate you on moving. Your bride is entertaining guests right now, isn't it so lively and warm?" Scene, your beautiful newlywed wife is being an elegant and thoughtful housewife, and you must be not far from her at this time, with a smile on your lips, admiring your wife's every frown and smile. But You have no idea what I have paid for your happiness. Bai Shaoyi, if you want to maintain the happy scene of the Hemei family, you'd better come to the Green Cafe immediately." Zhao Yihan's tone over there was resentful, with a vague threat.

"What exactly do you want to do? My family's happiness has nothing to do with you! My attitude is already very clear." Bai Shaoyi's tone suddenly became sharp, he didn't want to get involved with Zhao Yihan anymore.

"Really? Someone wants to elope with your wife! Bai Shaoyi, if you don't mind the color change on your hair, enjoy your family life!" Zhao Yihan over there said something inexplicable and hung up the phone.

"Young Mistress's lunch is ready, we can start the dinner." Mama Zhang, who is in charge of cooking, came in to ask for the time for dinner.

Madam Bai suddenly remembered something, and looked around: "Where did Shao Yi go?"

"The young master just went out and said he wanted to meet an important friend. The young master didn't want to disturb everyone, he will come back as soon as he goes." Osmanthus opened the curtain and invited Mrs. Bai and the others to the dining room.

Mrs. Bai Jinying looked at Qingqiu who was talking to Xiuzhu, but swallowed the words back. As a mother, Jin Yingmusic had a premonition that her son should not go to see Zhao Yihan.Qingqiu didn't care about her at all, but she was a little surprised, Bai Shaoyi said this morning that he had nothing to do and wanted to stay with her for a day, why did he go out in a blink of an eye.
