green bamboo dream

In the following days, Cui fell into a complete busyness, going to the warehouse to check the dowry every day, and the things that were pleasing to the eye at first became more and more shabby. 【26nbsp;】Simply re-opened a warehouse again, and moved the ones that met her wishes to that warehouse after re-selection, and left the unsatisfied ones at the same place, and then quickly sent the stewards to buy, and must find the best of.

The furniture such as Luohan bed, beauty couch, Babu bed, screen, table table, flower table and so on have been finished earlier, and what needs to be done is to varnish it again to make it present a bright and clean color; As for other large pieces of furniture such as box-top cabinets, bookshelves and Duobaoge museum shelves, which need to measure the size of the new house before starting work, the production has also begun.

What Yuzhu likes most is the red sourwood weeping flowers and crabapple flowers. It is a cover on the basis of the canopy bed that I usually sleep on. Flat carving, embossing, and openwork are used comprehensively on the fence, and the central part is also inlaid with an expanded carved screen of flowers and plants. The thick and heavy curtains, eaves flower covers, and carved column frames form a small veranda in front of the bed, which is ethereal and ethereal. dresser.The style of the main body of the bed inside is similar. The hanging eaves and the door cover are all openworked. The curved water pattern under the board hangs upside down and the teeth also turn out crabapple flowers.It is extremely exquisite. It looks like a small independent house from the outside, but it feels a little dark even in the daytime when you enter it. The various carved patterns on the fence are projected on people. The light is flickering, quiet and charming. Suddenly.

This bed was made when she was in Dengzhou. Cui, who had just arrived in Dengzhou, fell in love with this kind of bed when she saw it.Because the babu bed is mainly popular among wealthy families in the south, it is easy to find craftsmen in the south, but even if twice as many craftsmen are hired, it still takes nearly three years to complete the work.As for the price, Yu Zhu didn't dare to ask, the truth is definitely not something that a person like her with a monthly bill of only 20 taels of silver can afford.

A few days before leaving the pavilion, Mrs. Cui finally piled up the newly opened warehouse to the brim. The Duobaoge and bookshelves made by Mrs. Tuo Gao’s mother’s family were also delivered neatly. , the flat carvings of flowers and plants are very aura.Even Lin Yuanzhi, who often went to the emperor's study and was used to seeing wealth and honor, was quite satisfied, and said that Mrs. Cui was the right person to invite.Cui's acceptance inspection was completed happily, and she felt flustered when she had free time. She wanted to see her daughter, but Yu Zhu was doing some pre-marital beauty treatments under the guidance of Mrs. Ruan, and she had to rush to do some post-marriage treatments in the spare time. It was a meeting ceremony for the elders, besides, Mrs. Cui did not dare to go there easily, for fear that she would not be able to hold back tears when they met, and would make Yu Zhu cry too.After thinking about it, I decided to find something to do, and called the steward who was selected from my dowry Zhuangzi to come over and beat it, because compared with the shop's guaranteed income from drought and flood, and basically fixed profits, Zhuangzi is undoubtedly more troublesome and trivial.

"You were all given by the old lady, and you have been with me for so many years. You have always been diligent and diligent in doing things, and you didn't need much care. That's why I chose you to take care of the dowry Zhuangzi for the young lady. I will tell you Speaking of which, don't take Joe in front of the master because of your dignity. If you don't know what you shouldn't do for a while, even if the lady is soft-hearted and let it go, I can't rub the sand in my eyes, but think about it. Well, the consequences are something you can afford." Cui's expression was majestic, revealing evil spirits, even through the screen, the kneeling stewards still felt a bit of chill behind their backs.

The leader, an old man with a face full of wind and frost, hurriedly took a step forward on his knees, kowtowed and said, "Madam, don't worry, if Miss is dissatisfied with us in the future, there is nothing to say whether you beat us or kick us out."

"Just understand." Cui was really worried that these people would be disobedient, because the ones selected were all capable and honest. After so many years, they may not be the most capable, but they are the most loyal.Calling me over today is just for show, to find something to do by the way.

After dismissing the group of people, Mrs. Cui was sitting on the rose chair thinking about whether there was anything she hadn't thought through when Mother Liu came in.

Cui raised her head and saw Mother Liu's embarrassed expression, her complexion turned ugly, and she asked in a cold voice, "What's the matter? Could it be that there is something wrong with the second master of the Cheng family?"

"No, no, there's nothing wrong with it." Liu's mother hurriedly explained, "There is a problem, but if it's okay, I don't know if there is a problem."

Cui couldn't understand Mama Liu's words, so she pointed to the little girl next to her to sit down and speak slowly.

Mama Liu sat sideways, and said with a wry smile: "Madam, I didn't find any news. The second master of the Cheng family has been away from Cheng Guogong's mansion since he became the crown. He basically stayed in the barracks in the suburbs of Beijing. Not long after, the information reported to the servants will be different in terms of temperament and preferences, and I don’t know who is right.” Mama Liu felt ashamed that it had been more than half a month, and she had only achieved such a result.

"What about the people in the house? The second master of the Cheng family is 25 now. How many housemates and concubines are there in the house? Where did they come from?" This is what Cui is most concerned about.

Mother Liu breathed a sigh of relief, she knew this, and hurriedly replied: "The four housekeepers, one of them is a maid who has been serving since childhood, and the other two were sent by the old lady of the Cheng family. The last one is the most strange. She's not an ordinary maid and not a concubine, she seems to be the younger sister of the second master of the Cheng family, who serves in the study if she has no name or distinction. There is no room for concubines, it seems that the second master of the Cheng family doesn't want to."

Cui's frown became tighter and tighter, and she finally relaxed a little when she heard it, "What about the others? And is there anyone here who is particularly favored?"

"Don't worry, ma'am, the second master of the Cheng family doesn't seem to be the kind of womanizer. The one with the three rooms and the study room is said to be not bad in color, and I haven't seen any one he likes."

Cui couldn't rest assured at all, stretched out her hand and rubbed the center of her brows, and then asked: "That's all, have you ever figured out why he hasn't married at such an old age, and someone like him should get married when he is around 16 years old?" , why has it dragged on for so many years?"

Ms. Liu hesitated for a moment, and said carefully, "I heard that the second master of the Cheng family planned to marry him when he was old, but for some reason, he suddenly gave up, and it was only in his early twenties that he became more interesting... ...It's a pity that there will be a national funeral after that, and after the national funeral is over, the old lady of the Cheng family is thinking about finding a wife for the second master, and will invite many ladies and ladies to come over for a birthday banquet through the father-in-law's birthday." Mother Liu paused, After sorting out his thoughts carefully, he continued: "At that time, the old lady of the Cheng family fell in love with the fourth daughter of the Duke of Qi's mansion. After coming and going, both families had the same meaning, but Miss Qi's family still had two cousins. Married, so I plan to announce it after a year. The old lady of the Cheng family seems... seems to have a...stiff relationship with the second master of the Cheng family. She just wants to get closer to her future daughter-in-law, so she often asks the eldest granddaughter to invite Fourth Miss Qi to visit her. It’s nothing to talk to the mansion, but one day something happened to Miss Qi Si in Cheng Guogong’s mansion. It seemed to be quite serious. In the end, the old lady of the Cheng family personally ordered to block the news. After that, the marriage was closed again It's over..."

"The whole family is uneasy." Cui clenched the veil tightly, thought for a while and said: "You go and call Ji Geer over, I have to ask carefully, what kind of character is his brother Cheng?" .”

……

While Mrs. Cui was inquiring about her future son-in-law, Mrs. Xie, the old lady of the Cheng family, was also listening to what her close mother had inquired about her future daughter-in-law.

"Second Master is also blessed. This Miss Lin is not simple. Do you still remember the great epidemic in Qingzhou four years ago? This kind of thing is not frightening, but this young lady treats her father with a heart of filial piety, and she dares to follow the third wife of the Lin family to the epidemic area, she is really affectionate and sincere." Mother Yang exclaimed excitedly.

Mrs. Xie was wearing a dark brown plain pattern fringed golden Hui Zhai brocade gown, rubbed the center of her eyebrows when she heard this, and suddenly said: "So it's that Miss Lin family, I'd have forgotten it if you didn't tell me."

"Ms. Lin's family was originally targeted by many people after she came to Beijing, but she seldom went out after she came to Beijing. Mrs. Lin's family is not a person who can't get in, so many people have put their minds to it... the annual Zhixin meeting They all go, it is said that the color is very good, and they are also very talented." Yang's mother thought for a while and smiled: "It's just that she is a little younger, only fifteen this year, if it wasn't for the emperor's gift of marriage, I am afraid that all suitors will be trampled. Threshold."

"This reputation is all vain, so we won't know until we enter the door. I hope this time it will be safe and sound. Brother Xun can't stand it anymore at this age." Mrs. Xie sighed and served tea. Take a sip.

Mother Yang couldn't stop laughing when she heard the words, and comforted her: "It was an accident last time, but this time the marriage was bestowed by the emperor. With the blessing of the emperor, it will be smooth and smooth."

Xie smiled wryly and said, "I don't know if I can still see brother Xun's son fall to the ground... Forget it, even if the child is born, I don't know if he will show the child to me."

Mother Yang persuaded helplessly: "It will get better, ma'am, don't worry, in fact, this servant thinks that the second master has long since stopped blaming you, why bother to make such a fuss..."

"Forget it, let's not talk about it." Mrs. Xie only got sad for a while and then calmed down, her face was tight again, "The Lin family will come to make a bed in the future, and I don't understand what the old man thinks, you Go and take a look, don't make a joke."

"Yes." Yang's mother hesitated to speak, and finally had to let out a long sigh, and bowed her promise. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
