Chronicle of Farming in Muxianfu

Chapter 158
Mu Ai raised her hand to lightly darken her eyebrows, curled her eyelashes, brushed on mascara, and applied a thin layer of light red lip gloss on her lips, then stared at the brighter and more delicate face in the mirror, and smiled slightly, I muttered in my heart, Ye Zi, isn't the wild girl pretty now?

"Xia Zhi, take the children down to take a bath and change clothes, Tao'er will be here in a while." Mu Ai put away the thoughts in her heart, motioned for Chun Equinox to close the makeup box, and then ordered.

Xia Zhi responded, and led Xiao An out of the inner room door.

Mu Ai calculated that it was still early, her clothes and hair were combed, and she couldn't continue to lie back on the soft couch, so she simply took out Journey to the West, read and wrote with Chun Equinox, cooperated tacitly, and copied the last two pages come out.

When they entered the city, everyone in the mansion had a bitter look on their faces. After listening to Journey to the West for half a year, there was a problem, and they were about to get the scriptures, but the wife went out to the banquet.It seems that this ending is destined to make everyone wait.

Spring Equinox thought of Ah Da's eager eyes, and smiled while copying.Mu Ai's mood also improved, and she flipped through all the story books in the space. Apart from fairy tales and fables, there was only one Romance of the Three Kingdoms left that could be told to adults.

If this book is finished to the people in the house, will even the simple and honest people like Ah Da and Ah Er brothers become old and cunning, let alone Mu Wu Mu Liu and others who are originally calm and careful.

But think about it again, as long as the heart is not bad, it is better to be cunning than stupid, so Mu Ai decided that the next book will be about Romance of the Three Kingdoms.It's just that she didn't expect that this decision of hers would not only cultivate countless elites for her business kingdom, but also be respected by many wealthy families, and they even spared no expense in order to get the complete book as a strategy textbook for the heir of the family. That's another story.

The master and servant had just put away their pens and inks, and Simba and Cheng'er ran past hand in hand. The two naughty boys were originally chubby, but now one was wearing vermilion and the other was wearing magenta, like two lively like the flame.Afterwards, Dayu, who was dressed in sapphire blue, led Xing'er, who had changed into a goose yellow dress, and walked in.The four children lined up, no matter how juicy and pink they looked, Mu Ai hugged each of them lovingly.Because the children brought by the various prefectures have a separate table in the east wing of the main courtyard, the children can't be with her, so I have to tell them not to be naughty after the banquet, but to understand the rules and behave well. Entertain little guests for Uncle Xiao (Daddy).

The children obediently agreed, and while they were talking, Qingrou, Liniang's personal servant girl, came to invite her, saying that the old lady of Wei Mansion and the two Mrs. Wei had arrived, and Liniang invited her to accompany the guests, Mu Ai answered with a smile With a voice, "Go and tell your wife, just say, I guessed that she would not let me slack off, she has already packed everything, and I will go there right away."

Qingrou bowed and saluted, then went out to work with a smile on her face, as the lady's personal servant girl, she knows better than anyone how important she is to the lady today, and going to the banquet with the lady on weekdays is not unreasonable, so, today No matter how busy and tired she was, she didn't feel hard in her heart.

Mu Ai asked Xia Zhi to stay and take care of the children, then took Chun Equinox Xiaoan out of the courtyard and walked to Tinglan Court not far away.The maid standing at the door of the small flower hall in the left wing of Tinglan Courtyard is also useful by Liniang's side. Seeing Mu Ai coming over, she hurriedly saluted and informed Li, "Madam Xian is here." chain…

Inside the house, four or five gorgeously dressed official wives were chatting with the old lady of Wei Mansion and the two Mrs. Wei, or talking about which embroidery shop has good craftsmanship, or which family's children are good at reading. The topics are all interesting. It's good to interrupt, everyone can say a few words, so the atmosphere is very lively.

Old Madam Wei leaned on a soft pillow of gold silk and listened, and occasionally raised her eyes to look at her little grandson with a ruddy face, a hint of doting flashed in her eyes.

The lady who could wink brought the topic to Tao'er, and asked with a smile, "Old Madam, I haven't seen you in a few months. The young man in your house has become more and more handsome. He was originally a man who can read. After growing up, I am afraid that the matchmaker will step over the threshold."

After hearing this, the old matriarch was very pleased, but said modestly, "A child should not be praised, but he can only know a few words. This child has been weak since he was a child, but I am always thinking about it. Now, his body is getting stronger and healthier, and my old woman is more at ease, even if I don't wake up one day, I will have the face to meet my ancestors."

Another round and rich middle-aged lady next to her immediately smiled and said, "The old lady likes to joke. You are healthy and healthy, and you will live a long life. You have to wait until the young master grows up and gets married. I will give it to you." You can rest assured after adding a great-grandson."

The ladies next to him also complimented Tao'er for fun. Of course, they are all well versed in the way of flattery, not exaggerating or pretentious, and only looking for clues from Tao'er's appearance and intelligence, and they are talking about the two ladies of the Wei family. Also happy.

Tao'er blushed a little when she was praised, and was slightly annoyed in her heart. Although these women spoke nicely, he felt that they were all telling lies.Unlike my aunt, when my handwriting is good or my arithmetic is correct, my aunt just pats his head and says with a smile, "Our Tao'er is so smart!" It warms his heart and makes him want to learn more. better.

The old lady raised her hand and took a sip from the teacup. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a servant girl shouting outside, "Madam Xian is here." She immediately put down the teacup and looked outside the door. Tao'er's eyes lit up too. , the two Madam Wei even stood up to greet her.

The behavior of the four members of their family naturally fell into the eyes of all the ladies, and of course they quickly stood up and followed to greet each other, wondering who this fairy lady was, and whether she was an important figure in any family, otherwise how could she get such a gift? The governor's family attaches so much importance to it?
Just as they were wondering, they picked up the bead chain, and a young woman walked in from outside the door. She was dressed in a beautiful dress, her temples were like fog, her jade face was not powdered, but it was as magnificent as the morning glow and snow. It was really a natural and good color.Seeming to be slightly uncomfortable with the focus of everyone's gaze, she frowned, and then smiled gently, and everyone immediately felt as if a spring equinox was blowing on their faces, and couldn't help but smile too.

Mu Ai entered the door and looked around, there were already no less than ten people in the room, all of them were bejeweled noble ladies, except for the four members of Weifu who were beside the soft couch, the rest were strangers, so she walked to the In front of the bed, he performed the junior salute and said with a smile, "Old Madam, how are you doing well these days?"

"Okay, okay, you girl, you came to the city twice and didn't go to talk to me, but you think I'm boring as an old lady."

"Old Madam, you have wronged me. It's not like you don't know that I like money the most. I've been busy earning money both times. Of course I can't visit you, and you'll be stained with money. However, I'm I carefully made a snack and sent it to you, do you still like it?" Mu Ai changed the subject with a smile.

The old lady smiled and said, "Of course it suits my appetite. I am the only old woman who can eat snacks made by the owner of Shiweitian in Huawang City. I am happy to eat this."

Mu Ai greeted the two Madam Wei with a smile again, and they introduced her to all the ladies in the room, and they saluted after a while.Mu Ai just sat down on the brocade bench next to the old lady, and Tao'er came up to salute, and was embraced by her, and said with a smile, "Did you practice calligraphy in the past few days when you came home? Dayu is practicing hard every day, I'm afraid I'm holding back." Do you want to surpass you?"

Tao'er leaned affectionately in her aunt's arms, and said with a little pride, "Tao'er is also practicing every day, Brother Yu can't surpass her."

Mu Ai turned her head in disapproval, and said, "Young Master Wei, you are proud, you know, humility makes people progress..."

Tao'er immediately answered with a smile, "Pride makes people regress!"

The aunt and nephew cooperated tacitly, and obviously they often exchanged answers like this on weekdays, which made the old lady next to him laugh, "This child has only been with you for half a month, but he has made a lot of progress. He is at home these days, and his heart But he came here long ago, talking about Brother Yu and Simba all day long, it makes my old woman's ears feel callused."

"This child takes good care of the younger ones in my family on weekdays, and he is becoming more and more like an older brother. He is a sensible child." Mu Ai praised, she is not polite.Tao'er is the son of the governor's mansion, he can be said to be a noble child, and there is no child with a higher status than him in Baihua City.However, he never puts on airs in his own house, and has a gentle attitude towards his servants. He will be courteous to Simba and Cheng'er, two naughty younger brothers, when eating or playing.How can such a well-behaved and sensible child not be liked.

Tao'er's face turned red when she was praised by her aunt, and the corners of her mouth tried hard to hold back, but she still curled up. The old lady patted him on the back lovingly, "Your aunt is here to talk to grandma, so don't pester her. Go find your younger siblings to play with."

Tao'er responded, saluted again, and greeted all the wives, then followed Xiaoan to Qingfengyuan.

All the ladies inevitably praised a few more words, the young master is really polite and sensible.

Mrs. Wei looked at Mu Ai, and said half gratefully and half gratified, "We are sisters who have known each other for many years. It turns out that the child is not in good health, and the medicine soup is always in his mouth. We don't know how much we have spent on him. .Last time, it was almost... thanks to Mrs. Xian's rescue, otherwise I'm afraid..." There was already sadness in his tone.

Mu Ai hurriedly said politely, "Ma'am, you are welcome, this child Tao'er is blessed, the previous disasters and illnesses have passed, and he will definitely grow old in good health in the future."

Mrs. Wei had just introduced that Mu Ai was Xiao Heng's righteous sister. The first thing everyone in the room thought of was that food is the sky, and they were slightly displeased. After all, a shop owner is not worthy of someone of their status to stand up and meet her. welcome.

However, when Mrs. Wei mentioned treating the child, she had a good memory and immediately understood who Mu Ai was. She was the friend that Mrs. Wei said had given fresh vegetables and live fish and shrimp as presents.

So he asked, "On the second lady's birthday, we went to the mansion to congratulate each other, and we ate a lot of fresh food at that time, but was it sent by this fairy lady?"
