Chapter 118 I respect you
Feng shi led Bai Meizhi through the east and west corridors and walked towards Chunhui hall, while patted her hand, "You are here, Auntie will never let you be wronged, your deceased cousin Tao left a daughter, You used to follow me too, but now you go back to Uncle Ningyuan's mansion, I have someone pick it up, when you pick it up, you two get to know each other well."
When Bai Meizhi got up from the inn in Baishi Town yesterday morning, the First Prince and the others had already set off and left, and they did not meet Xue Wanqing and the others.
She was in a hurry, and at night she only stopped at a tea house by the side of the road, and missed Xue Wanqing. Therefore, she entered Xie's house at this time, and Xue Wanqing and others had not yet entered the city.
Mrs. Feng placed Bai Meizhi in the Magnolia Courtyard at the back, a row of seven rooms in total. Xie Tiao's two-bedroom aunt was originally housed. Later, when the aunts got older, they built a small courtyard on the west side of the garden and placed them there. .
The Magnolia Courtyard was vacated, and four rooms were reserved for the women who lived in the previous night, and the remaining three rooms have been taken care of.
The house is half-new and not old, and has not been repainted. The three rooms in the middle are not big, one is the open room, and the second room is the bedroom. There is a small lacquered bed. The green shiny satin is hung with a sky-blue curtain after rain, and there are two pouches on it.
The furniture in the room is not very new, but the one-piece mahogany is much better than Bai Meizhi's cost in Bai's house.
The Xici Room is used as a study room, and it is separated from the Ming Room by an ancient shelf. On the shelf are a few humble potted plants, a few plum vases for the occasion, and a few jade ornaments. It is not luxurious, but it does not look deserted.
The two walls of the room are full of bookshelves, and they are not full. There is a mahogany desk on the north side, and the four treasures of the study are placed on the table. For Bai Meizhi, everything has been organized so properly, she is very satisfied.
Biyou followed the girl, and couldn't hide the excitement in her heart. She had just walked all the way, and saw that the Xie family's servants behaved solemnly and solemnly, which was different from the Bai family. Waiting to see the old lady's Chunhui Hall, The furniture and furnishings there were completely unprecedented, so I felt that this aristocratic family was really different from other families.
Biyou couldn't help but said to Bai Meizhi, "Girl, I see that the servants of the Xie family are all wearing gold and silver, and those big maids are actually more decent than some rich ladies. It's no wonder that such a family came from People are more respected, if we live in this house for a while, will people look up to us?"
Bai Meizhi couldn't help being tempted, looked out the window, and saw a few maidservants standing under the eaves, listening to orders, standing upright respectfully, probably hearing Biyou's words, they didn't even turn their heads, which shows their manners.
"You should also learn from them, how to do things well, and learn some rules of dealing with people and doing things. Even if you don't follow me in the future, there will be masters willing to want you."
"Whatever the girl says, the servant will follow the girl for the rest of her life, and will be the maid in charge of the girl in the future."
"I just talked about you, and you talked nonsense again." Bai Meizhi was really happy in her heart, and she didn't care about Biyou's nonsense, she just asked Biyou to inquire ahead, if the old lady has a summons, don't delay .
Fuyun Courtyard is still the same as it was before Xie Yuanbai left five years ago. He even planted a vine in the yard by himself back then, and climbed the dead vines all over the wall. It will regenerate young leaves in the spring of the coming year.
If it weren't for the children around him, Xie Yuanbai would have the illusion that he just went out for a drink and came back again.
"Master, at noon, our family of four will have some lunch at will. Father means that in the evening, the family will gather together to greet the husband."
The sun is already in the west, seeing that everyone is hungry, Yuan proposed.
Xie Yuanbai felt Yuan Shi's nervousness, he smiled and nodded to her, "You can arrange it!"
After Xie Yuanbai finished speaking, he looked at his daughter, only to see Xie Zhiwei raised his head and showed Yuan Shi a coquettish smile, "Mother, I want to eat melons."
As soon as she heard that her daughter had something she wanted to eat, Yuan Shi didn't have time to get nervous, so she hurriedly ordered the servant girl, "Yanmei, go to the kitchen and see if you have made melons? If not, ask the small kitchen to make some now." share."
Melon is not difficult to make, because Xie Zhiwei likes to eat it. Pickled melon and dried bamboo shoots are always prepared. Just add scallion, dried shrimp and chicken breast, cut into shreds, and fry with sesame oil. It is very easy to get.
Yanmei was a little reluctant, she walked a few steps forward to the door, she didn't go by herself, but leaned against the door frame and told the maid Xue Xing outside, "Sister, you go for a while!"
Xie Zhiwei took a deep look at Yanmei, and saw that she had retreated into the room. Although she seemed to be obeying her orders, the corner of her eye was always glued to Xie Yuanbai's body, and she never moved away.
Xie Zhiwei's eyes were dark, and she quickly changed her mind. She turned her head and smiled sweetly at Yuan Shi, "Mother, you are so kind!"
Yuan's face flushed with embarrassment, "You child, just eat a little, why are you so polite to your mother?"
Xie Yuanbai saw everything in his eyes. He had always known Yuan's kindness to his daughter. He just didn't know that when he was absent, his daughter and wife were already so close.
Yuan Shi said that he ate a little casually, but this meal was very rich. Xie Zhiwei didn't know it, but Xie Yuanbai could tell that these were his favorite foods. Even though he didn't think of his wife very often for so many years, but in five years, His wife remembered his preferences so clearly.
It's like, the clothes she entrusted to send him from home always fit so well, and the shoes and socks are always so warm.
Xie Yuanbai thought for a while, filled a glass of wine, and put it in front of Yuan Shi. Yuan Shi was stunned, not knowing what Xianggong was going to do, and just looked at him stupidly, seeing him pick up another glass of wine, seriously Looking at herself, she said, "Axian, I have been away for five years. These years, the family is thanks to you. I respect you with this glass of wine!"
Yuan's tears came down in a flash, she was in a hurry to wipe her tears, and almost poured a glass of wine on her face, Xie Yuanbai quickly helped her hold the glass, said, "Slow down, don't worry."
Yanmei came up in three steps and two steps, and handed a handkerchief to Yuan Shi, "Madam, wipe your face."
Xie Yuanbai was about to take the handkerchief from Yanmei's hand, Xie Zhiwei hurriedly reached out to stop her, and said to Yanmei, "Go down and let Sister Danfeng come up, Madam cleans your face, is this how you serve?"
Yanmei glanced at Xie Yuanbai aggrievedly, seeing that Xie Yuanbai was only looking at Yuan Shi, she was very reluctant, but she had no choice but to bless her body and turn around to retreat.
Today's update!
