Cousin girl's salted fish life

Chapter 37
"If you don't go, then don't go, it will be hot, and you are weak, so it's better to be comfortable and clean in the room." Mrs. Li still comforted her.

Huilan had other plans, "Auntie, how about this? On July [-]th, the Ghost Festival, according to the rules, I have to pay respects to my father and mother. Why don't I take someone home for a few days on the [-]th day, saying that I want Follow the rules to pay homage to the ancestors. I will stay a few more days and come back after the Mid-Autumn Festival. In this way, Mrs. Tai's birthday and Mid-Autumn Festival will be avoided, which will not only avoid embarrassment, but also fulfill my filial piety."

"That's not okay. You can't spend the reunion festival alone. You should go back and be filial, but you should come back on the eighth day at the latest." Mrs. Li is not stupid, let alone that foolish and filial. , I understood my niece's mind at once.The child with dysentery is her own good. Of course she loves her niece, but she only agrees half of it.

Hui Lan was as good as others, "Okay, I'll follow my aunt's orders."

"Good boy." Mrs. Li held her niece in her arms, her heart softened.But he also felt that this was a good idea, and it was saved to put it on the bright side, so that the servants in the mansion would feel that the niece was not welcome, so they would despise her.Then Mrs. Li is about to die of anger. Compared with her niece, she is not a relative, but a permanent resident.That long and long piecemeal toss, no matter how good the child is, his temperament will be changed.

The aunt and nephew coincided with each other, and Hui Lan didn't want to fall into an embarrassing situation. How many troubles it would cause, it hurts my tooth just thinking about it.And I also want to go home to inquire about some things, and by the way let everyone in the house know that although she is an orphan, she also has a family and a job.

"It's already the sixth day of the lunar new year. I'll report to the old lady, sister-in-law, and your uncle in the evening. I'll deliver a letter to the housekeeper tomorrow. You should tidy up these two days and say hello to your brothers and sisters." Li Madame is indeed an activist and has already started to implement it.

Hui Lan admired her aunt's straightforwardness and agreed one by one.Afterwards, the aunt and nephew wentssip again, and Hui Lan resigns, and it's time for her aunt to go to work.

Hui Lan returned to her small courtyard with a gentle smile in the graceful posture taught by her nurturing mother.It wasn't until she was left alone in the bedroom that Hui Lan silently compared several people to the sky.

Although she was also a nerd before, after all, she has the Internet and mobile phone, and it feels like the world is in my hands.Let alone the Internet and mobile phones and computers, she doesn't even have a story book and travel notes, so every day is quite boring.

Besides, even if she didn't have to do it herself, at least she had to ask about the farm shop at home.You can't really become a hands-off shopkeeper and just sit back and enjoy the success.The economy is the foundation of everything, and she has to pay attention to it.

And these can't all be pushed to Uncle Li and the others, they are not the main family after all.They are loyal and loyal, and they usually pay attention to propriety.They can't let them worry and work hard for the rest of their lives because of her laziness, and in the end they will end badly because of something else, then it will be Li Huilan's fault.

Here in the deep house compound, Uncle Li probably won't be able to come if there is no major event.It just so happened that she could take this opportunity to go back and have a look.

Hui Lan sat on the stool and laughed secretly, thanks to Mrs. Tai.

Speaking of Mrs. Tai, Hui Lan slapped her head, she still had to sort out a birthday present.

Hui Lan sat in front of the dressing table and checked that her hair and clothes were fine.Only then did he leave the bedroom, and Narcissus, who asked Hou to embroider the handkerchief at the door of the bedroom, invited Mama Lin to have tea in the main room.

Narcissus put down his things and hurried away.

Hui Lan sat upright on the main seat, and Liu Ya had already entered with a crystal pot.

Because Hui Lan is young, the elders don't allow her to drink tea.So she didn't have much tea in her room, but a lot of honey, scented dew, and scented tea, so she drank it by herself.It's summer now, and the fruits are rich and varied, and there are different kinds of fruits every day, so Hui Lan is busy making fruit tea.

That thing is not difficult, just cut up any fruit you want to eat, soak it in warm water, let it cool before drinking it.She is not allowed to eat ice, which is already the best drink for her to cool off.

Originally, she felt that it would not look good without a glass jug to hold fruit tea.As a result, Liu Ya said that such a beautiful drink should be served in a crystal jug.

The glass is all brought back by sea, and the color is a bit cloudy.

Hui Lan shut up immediately, she shouldn't be too loud.I forgot that Daqin's sea transportation is developed, and I didn't expect the existence of crystal vessels.So she modestly praised Liu Ya's words, and asked her to take out the crystal tea set to see.

Liu Ya immediately picked up the key to the warehouse and went to look for it.

Huilan wanted to vomit blood when she saw it, Ya, are you kidding me, can this be used for tea?A small and exquisite pot of four cups, a set of crystal clear and dazzling engraved with exquisite patterns - tea set?This is a work of art!

Not to mention whether the crystal is worth money or not, just the pure handmade and meticulous craftsmanship, this lifelike plum, orchid, chrysanthemum and bamboo with crisp lines, this is not cheap!Works of art are for appreciation and collection, and if you drink tea with them and get hit by accident, that would be a crime!
Moreover, this is too small, she is not used to drink kung fu tea.

Facing Liu Ya's innocent and natural smiling face, and the foster mother who was staring at her, Hui Lan swallowed all of these slanders.

Well, it was her fault, the petty bourgeois mentality was so ingrained that she forgot that she was a noble lady now.

So Hui Lan praised Liu Ya with satisfaction, and decided to drink fruit tea with it.Then I finally overcame the psychological pressure and got used to using it without shaking hands.A group of people who treat money like dung and don't talk about money.Satisfied with the foster mother, she no longer talked about her in this regard.

When Mama Lin entered the room, Hui Lan immediately got into the mood, even Narcissus and Liu Ya stood up straighter.After all, nurturing mothers can also control the maids, and they are more afraid of the two mothers than Hui Lan.

After seeing Li, Hui Lan invited Mama Lin to sit down.Liu Ya quickly served the tea, and then slipped away.Hui Lan rolled her eyes in her heart, as for what, cut!
After talking nonsense about the hot weather, Hui Lan got straight to the point and asked about the appropriate birthday gift.

Mama Lin paused for a moment while shaking her fan, her smile remained unchanged, she first praised Cymbidium for her filial piety, and then said a series of old rules for Cymbidium to refer to.

Hui Lan was very happy, she was just too lazy to think about picking up ready-made ones.Isn't it just a wave? Among the birthday gifts mentioned by Lin's mother, she quickly settled on something.Mrs. Tai believes in Buddhism, so she gave a red sandalwood Maitreya Buddha.

It didn't take much trouble, Huilan remembered that there were some in the storeroom, and it was also a gift from the family. It happened to borrow flowers to present Buddha, saving worry and effort.

Mother Lin smiled and praised Huilan again, and Huilan also thanked her.Then Hui Lan said that she would go to the storeroom to find the birthday gift, and then put it in a good box after sorting it out, which is respectful.

Mother Lin resigned with a wink.As soon as she left, not only Hui Lan relaxed, but Narcissus also breathed a sigh of relief.

Huilan heard this, and looked at Narcissus narrowly and made a grimace. Narcissus couldn't hold back, and the two girls laughed quietly.
