The little marquis was confused by Mrs. Fang's incomprehensible words. After blinking his eyes twice, he said cautiously: "Old ancestor, that... business matters are all managed by Ting Ye." , I don’t want to do it for you. Besides, that Li Qiushan is quite capable, and he is the most slick person, so he won’t dare to come here to offend your old man, right? Which song is this from?”
Su Nuannuan also hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Don't worry, old ancestor, why do you have to go to find trouble with shopkeeper Li at this moment? It's because he realized his mistake and immediately sent the chef over, don't you still Have to wait for ten and a half months? Let me, who invented and created Buddha Jumping over the Wall, not use it, but go far away? You are old and don’t be impatient, the Buddha Jumping over the Wall must be tasted with Shaoxing wine jars that are more than a hundred years old. It happened that the shopkeeper Li did not know where to go I searched for two Shaoxing wine jars that are hundreds of years old, and gave us one. When we left Linqing, our master ordered him to send the wine jars to the capital. At the moment, they are probably stored in the Anle Building. We will get them back later, tomorrow The daughter-in-law will make you a jar of Buddha jumping over the wall, so that everyone can taste something new, okay?"
Mrs. Fang said with a smile: "That's considered filial piety. That's enough. I'm tired of being so busy today. You and Xuan'er should go back and have a good rest. You'll be able to become that Buddha tomorrow after you've recharged your spirits." … What?"
"Old ancestor, it's Buddha jumping over the wall." Duan Xinqi finally interrupted, only to hear Mrs. Fang laughingly said: "Yes, why did you come up with such a mouthful name? I was the first to disagree. Could it be that only Buddha jumps over the wall? Don’t Taoist priests jump over the wall?”
Everyone laughed again, and then Shi Yurou said: "Okay, the old lady is so considerate. It is obvious that she has been bought by her sister-in-law's Buddha jumping over the wall, so let's not be so blind. Go and do what you should do, otherwise big brother and sister-in-law Where do you want to go?"
Su Nuannuan also smiled and said: "Sisters and brothers underestimate our face too much. Since the old lady spoke, she just left without saying a word." While talking, everyone laughed and dispersed.
Back at Chunfengyuan, the children happened to be out of school, so Aunt Xue Zhilan, Xu Ranyun, Aunt Jiang, and Aunt Jing brought their children over to salute Duan Tingxuan and Su Nuannuan. Su Nuannuan and Duan Tingxuan hugged the two pink and jade-carved girls. Su Nuannuan smiled and said: "When I left home, I just knew how to walk, but now I have stood so firmly, let's talk about it. Girls are quieter and more well-behaved than boys. Look at our little princess, so Beautiful, wait for auntie to make a doll for you tomorrow."
The two little girls said "Thank you aunt" in a childish voice. Su Nuannuan kissed a few more times. Fang handed the two sisters to the nanny, and said to Xu Ranyun and the others: "Okay. You all go back, I know you are restrained here, you guys are greedy for new things, and you must see what you brought back from Liaodong. And Leave it for them to play on their own."
Xu Ranyun and others agreed, got up and went out one after another. Here, Su Nuannuan just stretched her waist, and said to Duan Tingxuan, who only smiled and looked at herself: "It can be regarded as home. I really have a sore back and backache because of the rush on this journey. My thighs are numb. Fortunately, I tied a cushion , or you have to break the skin."
When the voice fell, Duan Maochuan came over, and said with a naive smile: "Madam is tired, let me give you a shoulder massage, my mother is tired of work on weekdays, I will give her a shoulder massage, she will be fine."
"Oh, I don't need it, how old are you? Be careful, I haven't done anything yet, your little fist is broken." Su Nuannuan hugged Duan Maochuan and kissed her, and praised with a smile: "It's enough to know that you are filial. "
Duan Maosen watched jealously from the ground, and also stepped forward and shouted: "Mother, I am also filial, but let the third brother grab the words, the two of us are half of each other, you just need to lie down."
This time, before Su Nuannuan could speak, Duan Tingxuan laughed and said, "It's rare that the children have filial piety, so what if you let them beat them? No one cares about my father, you are much better than me."
After finishing the words, Duan Maofeng and Duan Maoming also walked over with a smile, but they just put on a show and did their best. How could Duan Tingxuan and Su Nuannuan really let them spend such effort? Su Nuannuan hugged Duan Maochuan and said, "How is your mother recently? But are you still talking about what's there or what's not in front of you?"
Duan Maochuan shook his head and said: "No more. But I don't think my aunt seems very happy, I don't know what happened. About half a month ago, she hugged me and cried for a while at night, but she didn't say anything , I was worried at first, but the next day she recovered, alas! Auntie, when will I grow up? I think as long as I grow up, my aunt will be happy."
"Grow slowly, don't worry, you will know when you grow up, it's better to have a carefree life when you were young. Your mother is fine, just wait for me to enlighten her." Su Nuannuan touched Duan Mao Chuan's head suddenly heard Xiang Yun from outside the door saying: "Grandma, the boxes and cages have been tidied up, and the gifts sent to each room have also been sorted out, do you want to take a look again?"
"Let's go see for the aunt."
Duan Maofan cheered, led his younger brothers and rushed out, so anxious that Su Nuannuan shouted from behind: "Be careful, don't mess with me, Honglian, watch them." After finishing speaking, he went out to have a look in person , and sent people to each room, and then picked out some playthings bought on the road, and coaxed a few little guys to play outside, and then she entered the room, and saw that Honglian was carrying a plate of snacks and putting them on the table , she smiled and said: "Mama Liu must have complained to me several times, right? Humph! I know if you don't tell me, but it doesn't matter. I will buy you a good dowry and keep it so that she will turn her anger into joy. "
Hong Lian smiled and said: "Grandma, don't want to wrong her, she didn't say a word in front of the slave..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard Siping's voice outside: "Xiangyun, is the master in there? You tell the master, and the second and fourth princes are here, and they are accompanied by the master in the front hall. The master told the master to hurry over."
"Understood." Duan Tingxuan answered in the room, then got up and looked at Su Nuannuan.
The life experience of the fourth prince is now a thorn in their hearts. Su Nuannuan was afraid that her husband would be awkward and impulsive, so she stood up quickly, and whispered while helping him tidy up his clothes: "Calm down, don't show your feet, this matter will even be taken by Mr. Long." I don't even know, as long as you don't show any clues, you can get by, otherwise a shrewd person like the Fourth Prince might become suspicious."
"Don't worry, I understand." Duan Tingxuan patted Su Nuannuan's hand, turned and walked out. Here, Xiangyun, Xing'er, Cong'er, and Hua'er also came in, and Su Nuannuan took out a purse from her arms, handed it to Honglian and said, "Look what's in it? I'll arrange a dowry for you later." At that time, this purse was arranged inside, do you like it?"
"As long as it is given by grandma, slaves will like it. Can slaves still believe in grandma's vision?" Hong Lian said with a smile, but she couldn't help opening her purse out of curiosity, and there were twelve round pearls inside, six of them , are all about the size of a thumb belly, and the rest are about the size of a middle finger. She worked as a girl for a wealthy family, so she knew what to buy. When she saw this pearl, she was surprised and said: "This pearl is round and shiny, and it is the same as the best Hepu pearl. Where did grandma get it? How did you give it to your servants? This... This slave must never be taken."
Su Nuannuan smiled triumphantly: "If you give it to you, you can keep it. This is what your grandma earned by peeling the pearl oysters in Liaodong for two days. I also have them myself. It's not worse than yours at all. It was inlaid on the phoenix crown for you, twelve pieces, divided into two sixes, we just want a six-six Da Shun."
Xiangyun and the others also gathered around to watch at this time, and they all praised her. Xiangyun smiled and said, "If everything goes well for Sister Honglian, what fuss do you have to do with numbers? As long as she gives birth to a son, she will naturally have a smooth life... "
Before she could finish speaking, she was slapped by Hong Lian, and she laughed and scolded: "You also care about your face in front of the little girls. If you say such a thing, people will hear you, but you are courting death?"
Su Nuannuan smiled and said: "Xiangyun, don't be jealous. The matter between you and Shuangxi will be done for you next year. Naturally, there will be beads that are exactly the same as Honglian for you, but I have to keep some of them with me right now." Days." After finishing speaking, he took out another purse, opened it and said to Cong'er and the others: "I know that you are all sharp-tongued, and you can't give up the excuse of partiality. Well, those who see it have a share, you leave It’s still far away to get married, so I’ll let you play with these few first. It’s fine to make jewelry belts, or to give to relatives and friends. Just don’t treat them as good things. Big and shiny."
Cong'er and the others saw that they had it too, they couldn't help being overjoyed, and each stepped forward to take three. Here Xiangyun said: "Grandma, did you go to the Wusuli River in the far north? I heard that there are several Dongzhu farms there, and only there are so many pearls can be picked now. It's just that I count the time, and it seems right." No way."
Su Nuannuan smiled contentedly and said: "Well, I was lucky this time and intercepted a batch of smuggled Dongzhu mussels. Ms. Chu and I peeled them for two days. It was fun. Break open the mussels and you can touch them The soft meat inside, in fact, most clams do not have pearls, so when I touched one, I was very happy. If I cut it out, I found that it was still a big, round, high-quality pearl, with a faint soft light, oh that It feels... the same as catching a fish... "
Sitting next to Su Nuannuan, the girls were fascinated after listening to her talk about Dongzhu clam and kelp, and this trip to the south of the Yangtze River. Xiangyun patted his head annoyed and said: "If I had known this would be interesting, I should have dressed up as a man and went with grandma."
Hong Lian snorted coldly and said: "You are so stupid, that Mr. Lu recognized you in less than three days." Su Nuannuan only told a few girls that she and Duan Tingxuan went undercover at Lu Fengyu's place for To give Pingguo a fair reproach, other things were not mentioned, anyway, the court will have an explanation for this matter in a few days, so there is no need to hide it from them.
Everyone was talking lively, when they heard that Aunt Jing was coming, they all stood up and retreated, knowing that Aunt Jing and the master had a lot to say, they couldn't just stand here and listen to the corner.
