Nongmen fierce girl head chef

Chapter 1207 Strange Thing

No wonder everyone turned her down, it was really Xu Muqing's make-up gift, which was too much to show for it.

There were six delicate and beautiful pastries of different colors neatly placed in the small box, some were made into the shape of six-petaled flowers, and some were made into the shape of Lin Yuan's favorite rose. Others just make a simple circle.

But no matter what the shape is, this is a dim sum. There is a layer of puff pastry on the outside, and various fillings can be vaguely seen inside.

Alas, that means Xu Muqing can use snacks as a makeup gift.

Yan Ruchun couldn't help but put her forehead on her forehead and close her eyes. Thinking of becoming a sister-in-law with such a person in the future, she was worried about herself.

It seems that the future Wei Manor can only rely on himself as his sister-in-law.

"Oh! Why do you all have such expressions? My item is rare. Brother Rong helped me find a craftsman with a very exquisite craftmanship in other places, and it took nearly two months to make it!"

Seeing that everyone was very disdainful of her makeup ceremony, Xu Muqing was anxious to defend herself again and again.

It's okay not to listen to her explanation, but the look of disgust on the faces of several people is even worse after hearing her explanation.

"Two months? My God! Can this snack still be eaten? It must have grown moldy and hairy!"

Tian Xuan bared her teeth and hid back, as if the small box in Xu Muqing's hand contained some foul-smelling thing!

"How can it be moldy and hairy?"

Xu Muqing was surprised and couldn't react.

Yan Ruchun also interrupted her very helplessly, urging her to quickly put away the small box in her hand: "We know what you like to eat, and we also know that you must be thinking of Lin Yuan's superb cooking skills, so we sent you this It’s just that it’s really out of date, so let’s put it away first, okay?”

"But mine..."

Xu Muqing was anxious to defend herself again and again, but no one gave her a chance to defend herself, so she kept persuading her to put away her things quickly.

Only Lin Yuan wrinkled her nose and looked at the snack in her hand with some puzzlement.

Han Huijuan on the side also noticed something was wrong, staring at Xu Muqing's hand with her big eyes.

"and many more!"

"Wait a moment!"

The two spoke in unison, looked at each other, and smiled tacitly.

Lin Yuan is today's protagonist, and this makeup gift was also given to her. Now that she had seen it, Han Huijuan smiled and closed her mouth.

"It's not an ordinary dim sum here. Come on, Mu Qing, take some closer and let me take a good look at them!"

Lin Yuan waved at Xu Muqing, her eyes were full of excitement when she looked at the small box in her hand.

"Yes, yes, my dim sum is not an ordinary dim sum at all, no, my dim sum is not a dim sum at all!"

While breaking free from Yan Ruchun's hand, Xu Muqing quickly hugged her baby and moved to Lin Yuan's side.

It's just that her explanation was too confusing, which made Yan Ruchun and Tian Xuan confused again.

Lin Yuan took the small box, first poked it lightly with her finger, and smiled with eyebrows crooked: "Huijuan, come and have a look, and see how this craftsman's craftsmanship compares to yours?"

Let Han Huijuan come to see it?

These are obviously snacks, not jewelry. If there is a comparison, it should be Lin Yuan who is doing the comparison!
Wait!

Something flashed through Yan Ruchun and Tian Xuan's minds, and they immediately leaned forward and poked the dessert with their fingers.

Sure enough, it's different!
"It's actually hard! It's cold! Why didn't I smell the dim sum as I said it? It turns out that this dim sum is fake!"

Yan Ruchun was the first to point out the inappropriateness of this snack.

Han Huijuan also picked up one of them to take a closer look, and nodded again and again: "The outside of this rose cake is made of white jade, and the filling inside should be dyed with red paint. This kind of thing is not very expensive. Precious, but, being able to make this dessert so vividly shows that this person's craftsmanship is very exquisite. I feel ashamed."

Although one is making jewelry and the other is making jade, in the final analysis, Han Huijuan and this craftsman are both craftsmen.

Han Huijuan's craftsmanship can be seen from the set of Kingdee head and face, even she said that she is ashamed of herself, which shows that this person's craftsmanship is superb.

"Of course!"

Her dim sum was finally recognized, and something called elation appeared on Xu Muqing's face: "This craftsman is from outside the capital, and Brother Rong helped me find it after a lot of effort! This jade is also mine. For what I provided, I gave the craftsman 200 taels of silver just for labor expenses!"

The jade is provided by myself, but it costs 200 taels of silver just to ask that person to carve it!
It seems that Xu Muqing really worked hard to prepare Lin Yuan's make-up ceremony!

Although the other people's makeup gifts have not yet been brought out, but in front of this unique set of snacks, everyone's makeup gifts have already paled in comparison.

However, Yan Ruchun didn't feel annoyed at all, but was pleased by Xu Muqing's understanding.

This girl is finally no longer a little fat guy who only knows how to eat and eat!

"May I ask Miss Xu, where did you find this craftsman?"

Han Huijuan frowned thoughtfully as she looked at the set of delicate and lovely snacks.

Xu Muqing tilted her head and thought for a while, then smiled: "Are you going to compete with him? But I don't remember where that person is. Let me ask Brother Rong for you another day?"

"Don't be so troublesome, I just feel that this craft is a bit familiar."

Han Huijuan smiled and waved her hands, not wanting to bother others so much.

The make-up gift Yan Ruchun sent was a set of red coral headmasks that she entrusted someone to find from Dongling, it was very precious.

Tian Xuan's make-up gift is the quilt and bed sheets embroidered by herself, which is very thoughtful.

In addition to her own makeup gift, Tian Xuan also gave her sister Tian Hui a makeup gift. It was a jade pendant that Tian Hui found from the south that could beautify the skin, it was very precious and beautiful.

Han Huijuan's makeup gift was a set of emerald head-masks made by herself. Although the design was not as unique as Lin Yuan's Kingdee head-masks, it was rare because of its exquisite workmanship.

Lin Yuan put everyone's gifts into the big box one by one with a smile, thinking that she had gone to give Tian Xuan and Lan Hua makeup gifts back then, the scene at that time was like what happened yesterday, but she did not expect that it would happen today It's my turn.

Hehe smiled, and Lin Yuan praised with satisfaction: "It feels so good to receive a gift!"

This small appearance with shining eyes seems to be a little money fan!
Narcissus and Ginkgo both looked at each other and smiled, tacitly knowing that they are indeed the same people as my uncle, they are both big money fans!

After several people delivered the presents, the yard became lively again. It was Jin Yu'er and Lan Hua who came, as well as Guizhi's sister-in-law and Xiaohe.

Everyone came to give Lin Yuan a make-up gift. Although the things everyone gave were different, they were all in the same heart. Lin Yuan thanked them one by one, and carefully put them in the box and put them away.

Lin Yuan's marriage is considered a major event in the capital, after all, her own identity is there, and she is married to the second son of the general's mansion who is very powerful in the capital.

Therefore, as long as many ladies from noble families in Beijing had met Lin Yuan once, they would rush to give her make-up gifts.

In fact, it was all to curry favor with her.

The visitors were guests, and even though Lin Yuan was not on the right track with most of the noble ladies in Beijing, she asked the servants to invite them in.

It's just that the gifts they gave were all handed over to Narcissus and Ginkgo.

The two little maids were smart and knew what to do just by looking at Lin Yuan's face. They quietly wrote down the people and things that gave the gifts, and at the same time put the things into another big box and kept them alone.

Whether these things will be brought to the general's mansion with her dowry is another matter.

Because these people came to give gifts uninvited, the Shiquan woman who combed Lin Yuan's hair came a little late. Anyway, the auspicious time has not yet arrived, as long as the time is not delayed.

Lin Yuan's yard was very lively, and it was all those ladies who were saying all kinds of flattering words in front of her.

Thinking of how these people looked down on her when she first came to the capital, Lin Yuan felt very ironic.

I don't know how these people put down their faces to come forward to give gifts. Do they regret it when they prepare gifts for themselves?Or cursed himself unwillingly and jealously?
Thinking so wildly, Lin Yuan didn't listen to their words at all.

"Miss, Miss Ma is here to give you a make-up gift."

Miss Ma?
Hearing the report from the little maid outside, Lin Yuan raised her brows, is there Miss Ma in Beijing?Which one?
Just as he was guessing, a familiar and light voice came into his ears.

"Sister Yuan, congratulations, I'm here to give you a make-up gift!"

It turned out to be Ma Xiaonan!

Ever since Ma Junying became the number one scholar and served in the Imperial Academy, Ma Patriarch and Ma Xiaonan moved to live in the capital together.

Coupled with Cheng Yuexiu's fawning on Ma Xiaonan from time to time, many people in the capital know her.

Some ladies who knew about the entanglement between Cheng Yuexiu and Ma Junying showed disdain for Ma Xiaonan, and almost went up to her and scolded her directly, "Your brother doesn't like her and deliberately hangs on to him. It's really shameless. And you I don’t know how much money it cost me to let Cheng Yuexiu accompany me to go shopping every day, I’m really shameless.”

Lin Yuan was very keenly aware of their expressions, so she received Ma Xiaonan even more warmly.

Leaving aside who is right and who is wrong between Cheng Yuexiu and Ma Junying, just looking at Ma Xiaonan's innocence and kindness, he is definitely not the kind of person who cheats other people's money.

They have a brick kiln in Ma's house, are they still worried about not having money?

"Xiao Nan, you are late!"

Lin Yuan held Ma Xiaonan's hand enthusiastically, and said something with some complaints.

Sure enough, as soon as she said this, those disdainful women smiled awkwardly, stepped aside wisely, and stopped talking.

Although Ma Xiaonan is simple, he is not stupid. When he was with Jin Linger, didn't he also very keenly notice that Jin Linger and the others were not pure in their minds?
She is aware of the gossip in the capital, she doesn't care about herself, but mainly about her elder brother, she cares very much.

But it's useless to say these things now, Cheng Yuexiu had died in an accident on the way to get married.The dead are gone, and the living should stop talking about themselves.

"Sister Yuan, your status is different now, and I don't have anything good to give you. I know you like some weird things. This is a little thing that I entrusted many people to find. If you like it Let's play with it!"

Outlandish stuff?

The women present looked at each other in blank dismay, why hadn't they heard of this?Could it be that Miss Ma guessed it herself?
Hmph, pretend to be very familiar with Princess Pingxi, and see how embarrassing she is later!

However, before the smiles appeared on their faces, the one who was really ashamed became herself.

Lin Yuan looked excited, eagerly looking at the box that Ma Xiaonan brought: "Really? Xiaonan, you know me best, let me see what it is."

The corners of the girls' mouths twitched. It turned out that Princess Pingxi really likes those weird things. Then the precious jewelry, calligraphy and paintings they sent out before were sent by mistake?
"Let me see what good things are there!"

Although Jin Yuer and Ma Xiaonan were not very familiar with each other, they were both from Zhuma Town after all, and because of Lin Yuan, they had met several times before.

Seeing Lin Yuan being so protective, how could he keep silent?
Jin Yu'er came over, and Lan Hua, Yan Ruchun, Tian Xuan and the others also came to join in the fun.

The identities of these people were different, and they were very close to Lin Yuan, so they pushed aside all the noble girls who looked down on Ma Xiaonan, and made them angry and impatient but dared not speak out.

Lin Yuan was amused as she secretly raised her eyes to see the movements of the few people, and they really saw it too.

But it's really fun for the sisters to work together to run people together!
Surrounded by everyone, Ma Xiaonan felt a little embarrassed immediately, and her voice lowered a bit: "Actually, it's not a particularly expensive thing, it's just something we don't have here."

While speaking, she opened the box.

Wow!
Several people couldn't help but let out an admiration.

Lin Yuan burst into laughter, and quickly covered her mouth with a handkerchief. The acting skills of these people are really clumsy!

But there are a lot of things in the box, so dazzling, at first glance, I thought it was a child's toy box!

Ma Xiaonan took out a cylinder from inside, one end was thick and the other end was thin, and said softly, "This thing is called a kaleidoscope. From here, you can see a lot of people, and you can also see a lot of colorful lights!"

kaleidoscope?
Others didn't respond, but Lin Yuan's body stiffened like an electric shock. It's been a long time since she heard this name, but she didn't expect...

"You thing, yes, where did you get it?"

Lin Yuan could even feel her voice trembling. Could it be that there are other people who came from another world like herself?
Ma Xiaonan handed the kaleidoscope in his hand to the excited Tian Xuan, and said with a smile: "These things are all bought from an old man who has been running darts all year round. When he was young, he often went to far away places with his bodyguards. Listen He said that he bought these weird things from people who were dressed very strangely."

a place far away?Someone dressed in a weird way?

After a little thought, Lin Yuan figured out that this was not made by people of her time at all, but should be picked up from foreigners with more advanced technology.

"Bring it to me to see."

Tian Xuan, Xu Muqing, and the others were happily playing with the kaleidoscope, and when Lin Yuan said it, she quickly gave it to her: "I can really see a lot of people, and there are a lot of things of different colors! By the way, you are facing the sun You can still see a rainbow!"

Xu Muqing and Tian Xuan's voices echoed in their ears, but how could Lin Yuan care about it?

Her hands trembled slightly, and she could barely hold the light kaleidoscope made of paper tubes.

Leaning her eyes closer, Lin Yuan finally sighed. Although this kaleidoscope can see many people and all kinds of wonderful colors, it cannot be compared with the kaleidoscopes she has seen in the place where she lives.

It can only be said that one is an advanced customized version of several hundred yuan, but now this one can only be regarded as nine yuan and nine free shipping.

In this way, Lin Yuan became more certain of her thoughts. These things were indeed exchanged by the old man from foreigners, just like the colored glaze ornaments that Xia Zheng exchanged from foreigners back then.

Seeing that Lin Yuan and the others admired the kaleidoscope very much, the other ladies from the noble family also looked over eagerly.

But everyone pretended not to see them, and ignored them.

Didn't you look down on me before?Now you can't afford to climb high!

The second thing Ma Xiaonan took out was a long thing with neatly arranged holes. This thing was quite heavy, and it should be made of iron.

"This is a harmonica, just like our flute Xiao, you can put it in your mouth and play it, and it can play many beautiful melodies!"

It turned out to be a harmonica!
Lin Yuan was the first to pick it up. No one else knew how to do this, but she was the best at bragging.

When I was a child, I lived at my grandma's house, and my grandma would often take an old harmonica and play music for her to lull her to sleep!
Like the kaleidoscope, this harmonica is also very simple, but the notes are still complete. Lin Yuan put it near her mouth, and played the melody of "Little Star" very smoothly with her skills.

It was the first time everyone heard such a lively and very special melody, and they couldn't help being a little intoxicated.

At the end of the song, everyone praised it one after another.

Although it was just two simple gadgets, everyone's views on Ma Xiaonan had completely changed.

It doesn't cost a lot of money, but it can match what they like. This Ma Xiaonan's makeup gift is indeed much better than the antique calligraphy and paintings they spent so much money to buy!
Many of the noble ladies present felt a sense of helplessness and helplessness, but they had no choice but to look at Ma Xiaonan eagerly and enviously.
