Nongmen Jia Niang: The little blessed wife of the general's family

Chapter 45
"What is Dongmei doing?" Yin Tao turned to ask Qiuye behind him.

"She should be home. Come here and I'll tell you what you need to do every day? What should you pay attention to?"

The study is on the west side of the main room, and the room is not very big.

The south window is a kang with light-colored felt strips and a dark red plum blossom lacquered wooden table in the middle.

There is also a large desk in the room, where the four treasures of the study are placed, a copper incense burner with a simple shape, and a Ru kiln plum vase on the high table.

One wall is a bookshelf, full of books, while the Yibo ancient shelf is on the other hand, all of which are exquisite ornaments.

There is an embroidered screen hanging in the middle, with a blooming peony on it. The petals are layered on top of each other. The water droplets on it are as transparent as real. Three or two butterflies are playing around the peony. Make the picture very dynamic.

Qiuye saw that she was fascinated, and introduced: "This is the embroidery of Lady Peony. The embroidery of Lady Peony is extremely rare. This hanging screen is worth a few hundred taels. This is still a gift from the young lady and the old lady."

"Tsk tsk, so expensive?" Although she was not influenced by her mother and sister to show any artistic aesthetics, she also felt that this peony was shockingly beautiful!
Suddenly, Yin Tao turned around and asked in a vibrato, "Miss Peony? How many maidens are there?"

"The peony embroidered by Madam Peony is so beautiful, how could anyone dare to call herself Madam Peony again? Isn't it self-disgrace!"

Yin Tao suddenly remembered Fang He's garden full of peonies, and still remembered that the girl who opened the door said that Fang He was called the Peony Lady.

She slapped her forehead, and really regretted it; at that time, her head was caught by the door, and she was still talking nonsense in front of Fang He, why not bully the poor boy?

If I had known that she was so powerful, it would be better to beg her with a slap in the face than to sell myself!

It's enough to sigh for a few breaths, the past is gone, don't think about it.

Yin Tao cheered up, took out a small notebook and carefully recorded Qiuye's explanation with homemade charcoal.

Qiuye glanced sideways, the handwriting was not only scribbled, but also lacked arms and legs; as steady as Qiuye, he frowned and shook his head, worried that Yin Tao would not be able to take up the role of the pen and ink maid.

The sun slanted west and slowly descended down the mountain. A little maid came back with a food box and called Yin Taoqiuye to eat again.

In a small cubicle, a few flowery girls from twelve to fifteen or sixteen years old are preparing to eat.

Seeing Qiuye and Yin Tao come in, they immediately got up and waited for Qiuye to pull Yin Tao down and sit down.

Qiuye instructed the little maid to save some for the maids who went to the main courtyard, and then greeted Yin Tao for dinner.

Yin Tao picked up the bowl and looked dumbfounded at the table of dishes, all of which were vegetarian. She thought that even if the servants of this noble family were not big fish and meat, they would at least have some meat and fish.

This is a lot of torture for Yin Tao, who loves to eat.

She ate a boiled vegetable dish with light salt and little flavor, and asked Qiuye in a low voice, "Won't Dongmei come back for dinner?"

"She must have eaten before coming back."

"All of her family work in the manor?" Yin Tao felt a little envious when she thought that Dongmei would definitely go back to the house.

"Yeah!" Qiuye didn't want to say more, and Yin Tao also concentrated on eating; even the cheeky Yin Tao couldn't resist the secret look at the table.

Until Qiuye shouted with a cold face: "Eat well, and I will become acquainted with you in the future when I work in a yard!"

Everyone at the table was immersed in eating, and there was only the sound of chopsticks touching the dishes for a while. Yin Tao admired Qiuye's aura.

After eating, Qiuye and Yin Tao slowly regulated the salute they brought back together. Seeing that it was getting dark, the two decided to pick up Feng Wansu.
