By Jia Xiuzhen

Behind Aunt Xue's house, several respectable stewards of Jia's mansion held a New Year's banquet. Mother Jia may or may not go at will, but in the eyes of the people below, this is related to the status and weight of the stewards.Naturally, Mother Jia didn't think about it, and now she just wanted to let Sister Feng take a good rest, so she specifically told her: "It's not a big deal, don't come here to set any rules. I also said to your mother-in-law that the first body is the most important. Okay. It's easy to be free now, you can rest in the house more, and put aside other unimportant things first."

Sister Feng agreed with her mouth, but she refused to relax in her heart.Thinking about Li Wan, last time the old lady was resting in Daoxiang Village, she made a thorough replacement. This time, she served a bowl of dim sum at the Lantern Festival banquet, and then think about the porridge, pills, and fragrant skewers before... everything is not a big deal, but everything is important. It took a lot of effort.The pumping cooler is embedded in which gap.How else can I say that scholars have a heart, the old lady is getting old, and being able to manage the house is just a use, and the caring and filial juniors are probably more pleasing.If I relax at this time, I don't know if there will be a place for me to stand after the baby is born.

In addition, the month is getting older at this time, no more thrilling than the first few months, so I still hold on to take care of the affairs, unwilling to show the slightest weakness in front of others.Mrs. Wang is not talented in all kinds of things. Earlier when Sister Feng gave birth to Sister Qiao, she happened to be in the peach blossom snow, so she was exhausted physically and mentally.Now I am very happy to see that Sister Feng can still manage the house, so let her go.

In this way, after the first month, suddenly something is not good.He repeatedly invited the imperial physician, but still couldn't keep it. My brother, who was five or six months pregnant, just disappeared.Jia Lian was originally happy, but seeing Sister Feng's refusal to devote herself to caring for her, and her greed for merit and power, she felt disheartened.Only at this time, Mrs. Jia Muwang only felt sorry for Sister Feng because of her hard work in the house, so how could he be allowed to show the slightest meaning.I had no choice but to suppress it in my heart, secretly hating.

Sister Pianfeng still refuses to stop, she still plans at home, and asks Ping'er to talk to Mrs. Wang when she thinks of something.Although she can't go out at the age of Xiaoyue, she is still the second grandmother who calls the shots.Seeing her like this, Jia Lian became more and more cold-hearted.She just thought: She is a woman, she has trampled her own flesh and blood, and she only remembers the false name of being in charge of the family, what is her heart made of!From this, she gradually distanced herself from Sister Feng in her heart.It's just that Sister Feng is powerful now, and she is also weak and anxious, how can she feel it.

Daiyu originally wanted to invite all the sisters to have fun at home on her birthday. Seeing that Sister Feng was sick in the house, Mrs. Wang was in a hurry, and then Li Wan and Tanchun were spared. It seemed impossible.Then he stopped thinking and only talked to Jia Mu.Mother Jia knew that she had to worship her mother at home every birthday, so there was nothing wrong with that.Daiyu took Zicuckoo with her again, and left no one else behind. She only let Chunxian and the mothers in the yard take care of her for two days.

It was the first time for Zijuan to follow Daiyu back to the mansion. When she arrived at the place, she saw a dozen or so maidservants coming up to greet her. Although she knew about these people, she had seen a few of them. Surprised.Coupled with what I saw along the way, I became more and more uncertain.She originally thought that Daiyu was a lonely lady after all, and it was the most appropriate way to take care of the Jia family.Now seeing the mansion in Miaoyuan like a cloud of servants, he was at a loss.

Since Yuelan and the others took Zicuckoo to find a place to settle down, when they changed their clothes and came up to serve, they saw Daiyu sitting under a lofty pavilion, behind which stood twelve large rosewood screens with glazed embossed patterns. The seat is very spacious, and it is also different from the common ones in the mansion.And here is clear and bright, but there is no chill, and there is no brazier, presumably there must be another mechanism.

Director Rong is discussing with Daiyu about the renovation of several places in the house: "This 'Bulian Pavilion' was specially built by the princess to live in for the concubine's daughter. Later, there was no concubine's daughter, so it was always empty. It’s been many years, and it’s only maintained once every other year. It looks a bit old. Didn’t the girl say that she wanted to repair a few places? This place is very good. Once it’s repaired, the girl can live in it, and the other one can be regarded as the wish of the ancestors. , what do you think, girl?"

Daiyu nodded and said, "I know this. Daddy mentioned it. It's just the same as it was a hundred years ago. Now it needs to be repaired. It may not be easy to use suitable materials and match the ancient paint."

Master Rong said with a smile: "It's just that it's not easy. If it's easy to make, no one has the patience to do it."

Daiyu laughed: "That's right. Let's do it here. Let's see how long it takes to fix it? It's all in one garden, and it's a matter of avoiding obstacles."

Rong Zhangshi said: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome. It's still the same people as before. There is no outsider, so there is no need to avoid it."

Daiyu nodded and said, "Thanks to you, this time it will be an eye-opener again."

After talking about it, I discussed several other things, but I couldn't decide for a while, so I had to discuss it another day.

Then, when talking about Daiyu's birthday, Daiyu said, "I wanted to invite them all to have fun together, but there are a lot of things going on in the mansion right now, so my sister-in-law, my sister-in-law, and my sister-in-law are not free. At this time, we have no choice but to give up. Just a few people in our family, let Rong Yanyue arrange it as he pleases."

Everyone acted according to their words, but on their birthday, there was an accident.It was the little demon who had gone overseas and returned.Except for Daiyu, others only knew that she was going out on business, whether she was looking for relatives or visiting friends, but they didn't inquire in detail.Seeing her come back this time, they all laughed and said, "I still have some conscience, knowing that I will come back in time for the girl's birthday."

Daiyu was so overjoyed that she grabbed Guiliu's hand and refused to let go.Mo Ge'er looked at it from the side and was sour - why does the girl like this ghost willow so much!Look at what she looks like, she can't be pulled out from the crowd!Only one pair of eyes can still see, but they are so small, even if she is bright, there is nothing to see with such small eyes... As I look at it and criticize it in my heart, I feel that this Guitou Liu is not pleasing to the eye, I don't know that my girl likes her What.

Regardless of their feelings, Guiliu pulled Daiyu and said, "Girl, I'll talk to you." Then she walked into Daiyu's room.Mo Ge'er hurriedly pulled her: "You! Change your clothes and go! I don't know which ash rolled back in the mud, don't spoil the girl's house!"

Gui Liu glanced at herself, and said to herself, "I use the dust-cleaning curse, how could it be dirty?!"

But Daiyu smiled and said: "That's right, you go change and wash before you come back." Then she remembered the daily routine of this beautiful land, snorted coldly at Mo Ge'er, and went away.

After breakfast, everyone went to a Huizi Pavilion, where seven or eight mats of fruits had been placed. On the outer corridor, there were many bonsai flowers and trees, all of which were soft and elegant in early spring.Because this day is also the Flower Festival, the clothes worn by the upper and lower people from the body to the hairpin on the hands are also related to flowers, and the more beautiful flowers are blooming in spring.

Daiyu changed into a thin cotton long jacket embroidered with pink and white two-color whole branches of magnolia on a sky blue background. The neckline and cuffs were embroidered with fine pearl orchids on a velvet plate, and the buckles were all in the shape of green branches and young leaves.Zijuan knew at a glance that the clothes were new. The day before yesterday, Qing Xiao brought two of them over, but this one was not in it.I can't help but think of the clothes that the mansion usually makes for girls' birthdays. Daiyu also has this routine every year, but I haven't seen her wear them.

Mo Ge'er was wearing a cross-collared long vest embroidered with stone blue and full-color Nvtang, Guiliu was a dark green silver silk iris dark-pattern coverall, and even Rong Zhang was wearing a freehand embroidered breeches with flying flowers and falling rain.Although they are all embroidered into branches, there is no sense of overlapping and boring, but they are all very consistent with the person and form another scenery.

Since it's Daiyu's birthday, naturally everyone has to offer gifts. For a while, there are people playing the piano, playing the flute, singing songs, and storytellers.Zijuan had already prepared two-color needles and threads, but she never expected that Daiyu would celebrate her birthday at home like this.Those maids and nuns are all possessing unique skills, not to mention their identities, they really are girls and grandmas from a scholarly family gathering to have fun.

In particular, there were many new gadgets in the middle, and the nuns and stewards casually reported the name of the old shop of the firm, saying that it was for the girl's birthday.Zijuan couldn't figure it out more and more, but she didn't want to ask more questions, so she just kept it in her heart.

When I arrived at Guiliu, she took out a handkerchief bag from her sleeve, handed it to Daiyu, and said, "I got it from...my master. Miss, it's up to you." Seeing her hesitate, Daiyu said, Knowing that she must have gotten it somewhere along the way, she took it with a smile.

Mo Ge'er hurriedly said: "Girl, open it and have a look, who knows if she slipped a rock somewhere to coax people to play with?"

Everyone around nodded, and Daiyu untied the towel bag, revealing a pair of round beads the size of a longan inside, the color is pale gold, shining brightly.Zijuan's first thought was: "With these two beads, what kind of girl is this person?"

Then I heard Mo Geer say: "Oh, it's rare to find two of the same size. Really, what should I put in it? I can't bear it as earrings, it's too heavy. Doing anything else will disappoint my life."

A girl in pink clothes on the side hurriedly took a closer look, clapped her hands and smiled again: "Zhencui Hall sent back a bunch of colorful treasures, and I was scratching my head. A single one is not too big. The color is too lively and too low. This time I don’t have to worry about it. It’s just a pair of hairpin flowers, and the girl can wear it when she goes to the academy gathering.”

Qing Xiao then said: "You have decided on a pattern, and quickly send us a copy, so that we can make clothes with it."

The other end responded quickly, seeing that she was not the only one in charge of this matter, she turned around and came over to the two, and when the three of them got together, they discussed with each other one by one.

Nanny Xin clapped her hands there and said, "Okay, okay, I'll see Lie Xinxi one by one when I look at the right things. I forgot what day it is today?! We all sat down and drank a glass of wine. Circle, the birthday fruit hasn’t arrived yet, what’s the rush.”

Everyone laughed loudly after hearing this, and then returned to their seats, and the sound of silk and bamboo came across the water.Those who have not yet entered the ceremony will go to the next round.After drinking for three rounds, the topping and fruit serving are completely different from the customs of Jia's mansion.Even that side is strange.

Seeing Zijuan stupefied, Xueyan smiled and said: "Sister Zijuan, this is Bazhen noodles. The noodles are added with bamboo shoots, ham pine, chicken breast shreds, crab meat, pine nuts, minced hazelnuts, evergreens, mushrooms, etc. The noodles are thin, using autumn oil and noodles that have been boiled over the five grains of mountain mushrooms, and then cut out the noodles. It is delicious when it is boiled in water, and the more you chew, the more fragrant it is. It is only troublesome to make, but if you mix in a little bit You can’t knead dough with oil star.”

He also advised Zicuckoo, "Try it." Zicuckoo took a sip, and sure enough, this noodle has its own fragrance, which is quite different from those noodles that rely on a good soup.Seeing Xueyan, she hurriedly told her about the other dishes, and even spread two chopsticks for her from time to time.

Zijuan laughed and said, "Today I will take care of you." Xueyan laughed and said, "My sister has taken care of me a lot on weekdays, so let me do my best as a landlord this time."

Zicuckoo smiled, not knowing what to think.

After the feast ended happily, Daiyu and Guiliu entered the house, and Nanny Xin led the rest out, and she guarded in the outside room.Although she didn't know Guiliu's real identity, she also knew that she had a lot of kung fu on her, so she might have something to do with the master when she went out this time.Since this is a big matter, the fewer people who know about it, the better.
