Wei sighed and said, "Aunt Xu, who served my sister before, said that the doll was dirty, so she took it to be washed. But when she washed it, she damaged the satin, and said that my sister was delicate and could not play with damaged things. , I had the doll thrown out of the house. My sister cried a lot that day and was sick. I had no choice but to change some servants and temporarily transferred me to serve my sister. "
oh……
Seeing Wei's secretive appearance again, Chen Afu understood a little bit. She had always wondered why the little girl's grandmother became a monk and there were other relatives at home. Why was there only a father and daughter in this house, and why there was no female relative to help take care of the sick little girl. Perhaps there is a deeper reason for this. Even the servants may not be entirely for the good of the master...
Not long after, the maid Qiaoer came in with a food box. Mrs. Wei smiled and said, "I heard from my father-in-law that you haven't eaten yet, so you have to make do with some food first, and then teach me how to make glutinous rice and dates. For some reason, the sister and I made by Aunt Zhou just don't like to eat it that much."
She put the food on the round table in the living room, including four dishes, one soup and two bowls of rice. The aroma came, and Chen Afu felt that he was also hungry. It was already past meal time.
He also asked the girl Miaoer to take Qiqi and Huihui to the yard to eat. They were too noisy in the house.
After the mother and son had eaten, Dabao's eyes began to get sleepy and he yawned constantly. Mrs. Wei asked Chen Afu to take him to the beauty's couch in the west room to rest, and then took a little Luo quilt to cover him.
Afterwards, the two went to the small kitchen in the backyard together.
Wei is twenty-four or five years old. She is fair and delicate. She smiles without speaking, which makes her very lovable. Chen Afu told her again about how little manager Luo helped him.
Mrs. Wei smiled and said, "I heard from my boss, Lai Fucheng, that my two children often go to your house to eat and drink, so it's appropriate to help with this little favor." He added, "In three days, my sister will be four years old. Birthday, after the birthday, I still want my sister to live with us in Tangyuan. The uncle said that the air in the countryside is good, which may be good for my sister's growth. I like Sister Chen so much that you will come to Tangyuan more in the future. Garden play..."
Coming to the kitchen, all the ingredients for making sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice and dates are available. There is no fresh osmanthus now, but there is a jar of candied osmanthus. While Chen Afu was cooking, she explained the steps for making glutinous rice and dates to Mrs. Wei and Mrs. Zhou who was in charge of the kitchen. When the dates were boiled in the pot, she sweated from the heat, so she took out a handkerchief from her arms and wiped her forehead, taking this opportunity to Shake the little yellow residue into the pot.
When the glutinous rice dates were ready, Mrs. Wei tasted one, widened her eyes and said, "Oh, we did the same thing, why is the one made by Sister Chen so much more delicious?"
Mrs. Zhou, the kitchen manager, tasted one and said it was delicious. After listening to Wei's words, she smiled knowingly, "Everything must be done by fate, and the same goes for cooking and wine making. With the same ingredients and steps, the food or wine produced may not have the same taste. . If they all taste the same, why would a restaurant pay a high price to hire a master chef? Just find someone to make it."
These words not only praised Chen Afu, but also found steps for himself.
Wei nodded with deep understanding.
Chen Afu pursed his lips and smiled. She was still thinking about how to explain it before, but Aunt Zhou helped her.
This time I made a lot, and the two small pastel porcelain basins were full. Mrs. Wei took out a fine porcelain blue and white plate, put a plate of glutinous rice and dates on it, then put the plate in the food box and asked the little girl to take it to the front yard to honor her uncle. He said, "Last time, my head brought the glutinous rice and dates made by sister Chen into the house. Not only did my sister like it, but my uncle also liked it. But seeing that my sister liked it, my uncle didn't want to eat more."
Then, he let the girl carry the rest and went to the upper room together.
The upper room was quiet, the two children hadn't gotten up yet.
Mrs. Wei only took out Xiaodie's glutinous rice and dates and placed them on the table in the living room. The rest were put into food boxes and taken to a side room to put away. Just after finishing cleaning, Miao'er's voice came from the east room, "Ah, sister is awake."
Mrs. Wei smiled and said, "Oh, this date is really attractive. It must have woken up my sister."
When Chu Hanyan woke up, she had to wake Dabao up.
Chen Afu went to the west room, where Dabao was still sleeping soundly on the beauty's couch. Chen Afu gently shook him awake, and he was so angry that he wanted to cry.
Chen Afu smiled and said, "This is sister Yan'er's home. Let her hear you cry and see that she is not ashamed of you."
Dabao's eyes suddenly opened wide, he stood up and said, "Mom, I was wrong, Dabao didn't cry." He suddenly became very energetic.
A little girl brought a basin of water, and Chen Afu washed Dabao's face.
In the outer study room, Chu Lingxuan finished the last date on the plate and muttered, "Why don't you let her make more when we are here?"
Manager Luo, who was standing aside, pursed his lips and suppressed a trace of his smile. How long has it been since my uncle was so childish? It seems that something unexpected happened at home and the eldest lady was forced to become a monk, and she has never been like this again.
He also reported to Chu Lingxuan in more detail the affairs of the Chen family, how Chen Afu received medical treatment, Dabao's situation, and the bullying by gangsters in the village. He also told Chu Lingxuan that his maternal grandmother's fourth cousin was the best seller. The buckle turned out to be designed by Chen Afu, and she signed a contract with Nishang Embroidery House, and so on. He also said something before, but not in such detail.
After listening, Chu Lingxuan nodded and said, "This family is more reliable. Mrs. Chen is also smart. My sister seems to like her very much." He coughed unnaturally and said, "My sister can spend more time with the mother and son when she goes to Tangyuan in the future. Otherwise, let Mrs. Chen be a needlework master for my sister Yan. In the future, let her teach my sister to do needlework regularly in the countryside."
Manager Luo was stunned. Teach my sister to do needlework? After thinking about it, he understood what the master meant, and immediately bowed and replied, "Yes."
Chu Lingxuan frowned again and thought to himself, for some reason, when he first saw Dabao in Sanqing County, he felt that he looked familiar, and he had this recognition even more after seeing him today. But he was sure that he had never seen that child before. Perhaps, this is the eye connection.
Also, why do I feel that Chen Xiaoniang also feels familiar today... It's really strange.
Chu Lingxuan and Manager Luo went to Yuetaoyuan together again
As soon as I entered the yard, I saw Qiqi and Huihui standing in the yard, looking up and talking. One was reciting a poem, and the other kept shouting "Dabao wants to pee, Dabao wants to pee", all of which were Chen Dabao's voices, which made several maids and women cover their mouths and laugh.
In order to make his daughter's yard lively, Chu Lingxuan had people plant many flowers, trees and trees in the yard, and hung many birds. But only today did he feel that this yard really had some vitality.
No wonder the mother also likes the child and these two human-like parrots. Perhaps, with the little swallow, it will be more lively here?
