Wonderful Puppet
Chapter 167 Grapes
When the old lady of Zhen Guogong heard about it, she was also stunned for a long time before laughing: "The wife of Dalang is really blessed."
At her age, her husband was stupid, her elder son died young, her youngest son disappeared, and all the ups and downs, honors and disgraces have gone through, and many of them have been taken lightly.
People with profound blessings are better than anything else.
The result that the old lady was satisfied with was that Zhen Miao got two gold ingots as a reward when paying her respects the next day.
This old lady is real.
Zhen Miao touched the gold ingot in her purse and smiled sweetly.
Contempt flashed in Luo Zhiya's eyes.
When they got to Xinyuan, they told Tian about it as a joke.
Tian Shi was a little uneasy.The master was right, she shouldn't have given up the housekeeper's position.
If the old lady is really satisfied with Mrs. Zhen, if she is not sure, she can teach her well, and then let her be the housekeeper.
The more Tian thought about it, the more annoyed she became.
She is really confused, why did she give Zhen Shi a chance!
No, she must take back the power of stewardship.
She has been managing the Duke's Mansion for more than ten years, and she has devoted so much effort, why should she give it up to others!
"Mother, what's the matter with you, is there something uncomfortable?" Seeing that Tian's expression was not right, Luo Zhiya asked.
"No, my mother thinks it's almost all right."
This disease should get better in two days.
Zhen Miao went back to Qingfengtang, and happily asked Zisu to put away the two gold ingots.
After a while, another woman in charge reported that muscat grapes had been delivered from the front.
Among the melons and fruits, Zhen Miao's favorite is the muscat grape.Hearing this, he asked someone to bring it in, but when he saw it, there were actually two big baskets.
"There are so many, are they divided into different courtyards?"
"Back to grandma, the grapes from each courtyard have been sent, and they are specially sent to Qingfengtang." The woman in charge said.
The woman in charge, surnamed Tang, has been in charge of Qingfengtang.
Of the maids she brought, Zisu and Bai Shao occupied the positions of first-class maids, Bai Ling and A Luan were second-class along with the original maids of Qingfengtang, Yunliu and Yunyan.
Green pigeons, sparrows, nightingales and crimson pearls are the third class.
Zisu, Baishao and Mother Tang.It's the respectable servant in this yard.
Zhen Miao felt that something was wrong.
The most important thing about melons and fruits is to eat fresh ones. Even though the Duke's Mansion is rich, they don't buy so many every time. Not to mention anything else, the melons and fruits that are distributed to Qingfengtang on weekdays are only three to five plates.
"A Luan. Wash a few bunches of grapes and put them in a basket for me."
When it was finished, Zhen Miao signaled Qing Ge to carry it, and went to Yi'an Hall.
The old lady was playing leaf cards with a few big girls, seeing Zhen Miao coming in, she didn't let it go.Greeting: "Daughter-in-law, come and see the cards for me."
"Grandmother. This is playing the leaf card. My grand-daughter-in-law has opened all seven apertures and six apertures. You let me see, but I found the wrong person." Zhen Miao smiled and took the basket from Qingge's hand and put it on the table.
The purple and black grapes are packed tightly one by one, crystal clear and translucent, with water droplets hanging on them.Just looking at it makes people want to eat.
The old lady smiled: "You child, I have some grapes too. Why did you send them here on purpose?"
Zhen Miao pursed her lips and smiled: "Grandmother's are the orders bought by the servants, these are the granddaughter-in-law's filial piety."
The old lady glanced at the basket full of grapes, and said angrily: "Then you bring the regular grapes, what will you eat?"
"My granddaughter-in-law still has two big baskets."
"Uh, two baskets?"
Zhen Miao nodded: "Yes."
After saying hello to the old lady, no matter whether it was delivered by mistake or not, the two baskets of muscat grapes belong to her, so I am happy to think about it.
"Maybe I made a mistake." The old lady had a calm face, but she was thinking a little more in her heart.
After changing the master butler, it is normal for the servants to have their own little calculations. Whether they can make the servants smooth is also an important skill of the steward.
But if he framed his master, he would be unforgivable.
"Then grandson, please send the grapes back." Zhen Miao showed a pained expression.
The old lady laughed: "Since it's been delivered, you can keep it and eat."
"Thank you grandma." Zhen Miao showed a big smile.
Two baskets of grapes passed Ming Road, Zhen Miao finally felt relieved, said goodbye and went back to Qingfeng Hall, and invited the maids to eat grapes together.
Seeing that there were too many grapes and they couldn't be stored for a long time in such a hot day, Zhen Miao thought for a while and said, "Queer, call all the flowers to eat the grapes."
Que'er looked unwilling: "Grandma, why are you feeding them?"
Hmph, they are all in the house, and they want to compete with the girl for the heir.
Bah, bah, bah, what are their identities, why should they rob girls!
"It's too wasteful not to eat something when it's broken, so let's go."
The deserted sparrows in the Xikua courtyard are not falling, Que'er stood at the door and shouted: "Chen Yu, Luo Yan, Shame Flower, come out quickly, Grandma is calling you to come over—"
Ahem, something seems wrong.
Que'er thought strangely.
After a period of chaos, three beauties ran out, and everyone was a little excited.
Ever since the eldest grandma entered the door, they even ignored their greetings, let alone the eldest son, even the eldest grandma couldn't see him face to face.
Qiyue was kicked out because of the roasting of pigs, which made them dare not act rashly, and they were almost moldy from being nested in the house all day.
"Miss Que'er, what is Grandma calling us?" Luo Yan asked anxiously.
"I call you to eat grapes." After Que'er finished speaking, she turned her head and walked forward.
So the three Tongfang became even more disturbed.
After entering the gate of the main courtyard, they found many wooden tables and rattan chairs under the acacia tree. Zhen Miao led a group of maids and women sitting there eating grapes, and there was laughter from time to time.
The three looked at each other.
It turns out that eating grapes is really eating grapes.
"Greetings to Grandma." The three saluted in unison.
"You guys are here, sit down wherever you want, don't be restrained." Zhen Miao smiled and pointed to the random place.
The three of them still hesitated.
Zhen Miao pursed her lips: "If you feel uncomfortable, can you take it back to your room to eat?"
As soon as the words fell, the three roommates quickly sat down.
Zhen Miao was embarrassed.Picking up a grape and throwing it into his mouth, he narrowed his eyes into curved crescents.
It seems that she underestimated the determination of these three to see the prince.
but--
Hmph, it doesn't matter what time it is, Shizi is still in the yamen.
Don't show them!
"It's so lively." Came a soft voice.
The corners of Zhen Miao's mouth froze, and when she looked up, Luo Tianzheng was standing at the Moon Gate, dressed in a straight bamboo green suit, looking at the courtyard with a smile on the corner of her mouth, looking even more handsome in the sunlight.
Zhen Miao didn't reply immediately.Instead, he took a quick glance at the three rooms.
Sure enough, the hands of the three Tongfangs trembled with excitement, and they stood up abruptly, looking at Luo Tianxuan affectionately, hesitant to speak.
The maidservants looked at Zhen Miao complainingly.
Girl, you are simply leading wolves into the house.
Luo Tianxuan walked over.
When I got to the front, I didn't wait for the three Tongfang to salute.He frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"
The faces of the three Tongfangs changed, and their eyes were full of disappointment.
Chen Yu said plaintively: "Master Shizi, it was Grandma who asked us to come and eat grapes."
"Finished?"
"Not yet, I just ate." Luo Yan interjected, looking over tenderly.
Luo Tianxuan looked expressionless: "Uh, one plate per person, take it back to the room and eat."
All three were about to cry.One person carried a plate of grapes, and walked away step by step.
The corners of Luo Tianzheng's mouth raised, and he walked over.
Seeing this, the maids hurriedly dispersed.
"Why is the prince back at this time?"
"I'm free today, so I came back earlier, where are there so many grapes?"
Zhen Miao took a bunch of grapes and handed them to Luo Tianzheng: "I sent it wrong, try it. It's very sweet."
The two sat together under the acacia tree, chatting casually while eating grapes.
A hesitant voice sounded: "Brother, sister-in-law—"
Zhen Miao looked up and saw Luo Zhiya in a light yellow skirt standing at the door, she wiped her hands and stood up: "Why is my sister here?"
Luo Zhiya came in to meet the ceremony, his eyes swept away, and his face changed: "Sister-in-law, you have a lot of grapes here."
"What's the matter here?" Luo Tianxuan frowned.
In his previous life, he loved this younger sister very much, but now, after seeing through the shamelessness of that couple, he really can't feel any brotherhood.
Luo Zhiya's eyes turned red: "Brother, I think you have changed since you married your sister-in-law."
Luo Tianxuan's tone was even colder: "Yuanniang, you are not young anymore, if you say this, it will make people laugh!"
"Big brother—" Luo Zhiya looked at Luo Tianxuan aggrievedly.
Zhen Miao coughed: "Yuan Niang, I want to interject and ask, what's the matter with you here?"
You can't come here to snatch a man from her, right?
Luo Zhiya regained her composure: "I originally told my sister-in-law that I wanted to go out of the house to go to Tianxiu Pavilion to pick embroidery thread. But now I would like to ask, why are there so many grapes here?"
"It was delivered."
"Hehe, brother, do you know that just now, Goro and Liulang fought over grapes. But sister-in-law, the maid who has too many grapes can't eat it. Could it be that the distribution of sister-in-law has changed since she took care of the house?" ? When my mother was the housekeeper, there was never such a thing as watching people order dishes!"
Zhen Miao nodded earnestly: "Miss is right, there really wasn't such a thing when Second Aunt was housekeeper."
When Luo Zhiya heard this, she felt something was wrong. Seeing Zhen Miao's nonchalant expression, she stomped her feet and said angrily, "Okay, since the eldest brother and sister-in-law think it's nothing, then I'll ask grandma what the reason is."
Luo Zhiya turned and left, Zhen Miao sat down and picked up the grapes to eat.
Luo Tianxuan raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Zhen Si, don't care about those irrelevant things."
As long as he made it clear that he cared about Zhen Si, he still didn't believe that his grandmother would blame her for the two baskets of grapes.
"I don't care, two baskets of grapes, what a big deal, the eldest girl wants to go to grandma and say that I eat too much, but grandma already knew." Zhen Miao skillfully spat out a grape skin.
The sun shines on her face through the dense silk tree leaves, making her face look like transparent jade, and her lips are extraordinarily bright because of eating grapes.
Luo Tianxuan couldn't help stretching out his finger, wiped the grape juice from the corner of her mouth, and murmured, "You can really eat it."
Zhen Miao rolled her eyes at him: "A person who can eat eight big buns for a meal says I can eat them? Hey, do you want more grapes?"
Luo Tianxuan smiled: "Yes." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
ps: Thank you for the rewards and the pink children's shoes. In the case of my poor update, there are so many pink children's shoes, which made me feel your deep love.
