Chronicle of Farming in Muxianfu

Chapter 332 Visiting the Sun Mansion
(Small leave: Woohoo, because my mother-in-law suddenly arrived, so I can’t make it tonight’s chapter. In order to make up for my friends, I will update it for five consecutive days starting tomorrow. Thank you for your understanding. I’m going to buy vegetables and clean up the house, mother-in-law coming soon!!!!!)
Mu Ai, mother and son, took them from all over the world, and walked around the three shops in the city and the medical clinic outside the city as usual, and ordered Mu Shi to prepare a few boxes of good snacks for gifting tomorrow, so they collected a few account books, and went shopping again. In the city, he did not return empty-handed. In a jade shop, he bought a pair of lotus-shaped jade pendants, which were very delicate.

Dayu also picked out a set of brush-washing inkstones carved with lotus patterns, as a souvenir of his visit to Lotus City.

When the mother and son returned home, it was rare for Simba and Xinger to come back early, and ran forward with a smile on their faces, showing off the small things they bought like presenting treasures.

Mu Ai frowned and glanced at the shoddy and useless gadgets on the table. Obviously, the two children bought them without thinking. Looking at their luggage in the space, it was twice as much as when they went out. There was more than enough, so they simply reduced their monthly pocket money from 50 taels to ten taels, making up their minds not to encourage their habit of spending money indiscriminately.

The two children begged bitterly, but unfortunately the mother didn't let go, so she had no choice but to launch a tear offensive, and changed the advantage of buying useful things in advance to declare and receive money, so she was aggrieved and let go.

After dinner, Mu Ai did not let them go back to the room as usual, but instead took the account books recovered today and asked them to check every pen and pen, and then led Dayu to sit in the yard to enjoy the moon and drink tea. The mother and son said they were happy He even took out the various fruit wines in the space and tasted a few sips of each.It made Simba and Xing'er grimace at each other, complaining about each other's misuse of money and angering their mother, while frowning and biting their pens to adjust their calculations.

That night, there were four mothers and sons, both drank too much wine, swayed slightly tipsy and went back to the room to sleep, they worked hard for half the night.

Waking up early the next morning, Xing'er and Simba sincerely apologized to their mother and brother, deeply reflected on the hard-earned money, and promised not to waste money again, so Mu Ai was relieved of the task of checking the ledger After torture, after breakfast, I happily continued to play.

Because she was going to visit Sun's mansion today, Mu Ai told Xiao An to take care of her well, and changed her comfortable cotton dress to silk, satin and silk gauze.After all, when you go out, your clothes are your face. Even if you don't want to show off your clothes, you can't make them look down on you because they are too shabby.

Over the past few years, a large amount of fabrics have been brought over from Huadu every year. They are all excellent and high-quality materials. During the winter solstice, which is extremely leisurely on the mountain, together with Wenjuan and other embroiderers who have entered the mansion later, they can't wait to use all the materials. It would be good to make new clothes for several masters.

Therefore, when going out, Mu Ai kept streamlining again and again, and still brought four boxes of men's clothing and ten boxes of dresses, of which only a few and a half cotton dresses were often worn, and the rest of the fine brocade dresses were never worn.

Today, when he heard that his wife was going to visit the Sun's residence, and that Sun Bo's investigation had been made the day before yesterday, Xiao An felt as if he had been beaten to death, and begged his wife to move all the suitcases out of the space, and sorted through them fiercely.

It took half an hour to get into the carriage and go out.All the way through the streets and alleys, when a stick of incense burned, it fell in front of a large courtyard.

Kong Xi stepped forward to report, Mu Ai lifted the curtain slightly and looked out, the long green brick courtyard wall was covered with gray roof tiles, stretching for dozens of feet, the vermilion gateposts were very bright, lining The black sandalwood plaque on the lintel in the middle is more solemn and simple, and the two upright and sharp gold characters of "Sun's Mansion" shine brightly in the sun, as if telling passers-by the pride and integrity of this mansion.The door in the middle was closed tightly, leaving only the side door on the left open. From time to time, some maidservants, or burly men came in and out.

Kong Xi stepped forward and said a few words to the big man on duty in front of the door, and one of them rushed in.

After a while, the middle door opened wide, and a hale and hearty red-faced old man, a refined middle-aged man, and Sun Hao with a happy face came out from inside.

Xiao An immediately opened the car door and went down, took a low stool and put it in front of the door, Mu Ai stepped on it lightly, got out of the car dignifiedly and gracefully, and Dayu followed.

Before he got to the front of the car, the old man laughed loudly, "Madam Xian's presence today really makes the humble house shine."

Mu Ai hurriedly saluted, and said with a smile, "Grandpa Sun was joking, this concubine has the liberty to come to visit, but it disturbs your old peace."

Sun Yixu helped Mu Ai up, stroked his gray beard and said, "Madam Xian, you are welcome, this is my son Sun Tong, there is no need to say more about Hao'er over there."

Mu Ai met with Sun Tong again, and then led Dayu who was behind him to come forward and introduce him to several members of the Sun family.Seeing that Dayu was stable and polite, Old Man Sun liked it very much, and praised him repeatedly, while Sun Tong stood aside with a gentle smile, and looked at this well-known woman without any trace.

I saw that she was wearing an emerald green smoked gauze and bixia blouse embroidered with large peonies, and an ivory pleated skirt with scattered flowers and water mist, and the skirt was embroidered with several lines of sea water with gold thread. Moire patterns, on the drooping lily temples, a jasper hairpin inlaid with pearls is simply inserted obliquely, on the ears are pearl pendants of the same color, and on the hands are also a string of large snow-white beads.The face is set off like a morning glow, the muscles are condensed with auspicious snow, and there is a faint bright color between the eyebrows, which adds three points of plumpness, natural and graceful.

He couldn't help but praise a few times in his heart, and then looked at his son who was full of smiles, his praise was replaced by a soft sigh.

Grandpa Sun led Muai's mother and son into the mansion when he caught a glimpse of a very familiar figure in front of the carriage out of the corner of his eye. He pondered for a moment, and immediately called out in surprise, "Old friend Gu, why are you here?"

Old man Gu squinted his eyes, jumped down from the shaft of the car with a face full of complaints, and said, "I thought you, an old knife head, only care about welcoming customers, and you have forgotten what an old friend like me looks like?"

Grandpa Sun laughed loudly, "You old glutton, who messed with you again, ran to my place to vent your anger." After speaking, he looked at the old man's attire, blue cotton clothes, silver crown and hair, and he was well organized. It was clean, but it was three points neater than the last time I saw it. He jumped off the shaft again, thinking of the rumors in the world a few days ago, his eyes became more astonished, and he said, "We have been friends for many years. At this door, do you still need me to invite you?"

Old man Gu saluted Mu Ai's mother and son, and said, "I really want to go in, but I need the permission of the master."

Mu Ai had already guessed that Qingcheng and Liancheng are so close, one is the master of the sect, the other is a famous family, Old man Gu may have some friendship with the Sun family, but he did not expect that the two are so familiar, so he smiled and said , "Master Gu was joking, when you come to our house, has anyone ever treated you like a slave?"

Old man Gu thought of his usual leftism, and smiled, "The old man, I won't be polite." After speaking, he stepped forward and took the hand of Old Man Sun, and they entered the door together.

Sun Hao then led Mu Ai's mother and son all the way into the gate, and said as he walked, "I thought you were going to delay for a while, and I was impatient that Lianhua would be defeated. I didn't expect you to arrive so soon after talking about it."

Mu Ai smiled and said, "In order to catch up with the flowering period, I have been rushing all the way for four or five days, and the children are complaining to the sky. Tomorrow, I have to visit the Yang Mansion first, and then go to the Lianchi."

Sun Hao thought of the young lady from the Chu family who married into Yang's mansion, and felt a little guilty. His wife was really useless, and he had told her at the beginning that he wanted her to go to Yang's mansion often. Not to mention, the Yang family also has many connections.It's a pity that she was fine before, but after listening to someone's nonsense in the past two years, she actually refused to go to Yang's mansion, so that he had to buy gifts from time to time and send someone to send them in the name of his wife, so that he could barely settle the matter.

He was annoyed, so he changed the subject, and pointed out to Mu Ai's mother and son the martial fields and other places he passed along the way. It is also very interesting to read.

All the way through the door and the courtyard, all the servants and maids encountered avoid the roadside to salute, which is very customary.Several people entered the hall of the main room, and sat down according to the seniority of host and guest, and a little maid in green clothes came forward to serve tea.

Grandpa Sun saw that there was only Mu Ai on the left and right, and his old wife, daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law were not present, so he looked a little embarrassed, and said with a smile, "My old wife is not feeling well, and she was accompanied by my daughter-in-law and grandson-in-law to another hospital yesterday to recuperate. No, but you are neglecting Mrs. Xian, and no one will accompany you."

Mu Ai raised her eyebrows, imitating Jianghu people to salute with clasped fists, and said with a smile, "You don't need to be polite, old man, the person who came to visit today is Wuying Zhenmuai, a newcomer from Jianghu, not Mrs. Yipin Gaomingxian. So, I'm glad that I don't have to be confined Courtyard, you can listen to the old man's golden and jade words."

Grandpa Sun's eyes were full of surprise and admiration this time, and his laughter became brighter, "Okay, okay, I've always heard that Mrs. Xian is a rare and wonderful woman in the world. When I saw her today, she's so kind-hearted. Wit is hard for ordinary men to match, and this old man admires it."

"The old man is very polite, the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, without those red tapes, it is much more refreshing and convenient."

Old man Gu also smiled and said, "Old Dao Tou, you don't know, this girl is really ruthless. A few days ago, she almost turned me into a hedgehog, and forced me to become a coachman instead of a master."

This made all the grandparents of the Sun family laugh. Grandpa Sun said with a smile, "I heard about this a few days ago, and thought the news was false. When I saw you just now, I was afraid of hurting your old face, so I held back and said nothing." Ask, I didn't expect you to say it yourself. Lao Taotie, you have stumbled this time."

Old man Gu took a sip of tea indifferently, and said, "What do you know, I lost on purpose. Otherwise, how could I not worry about eating and drinking every day, and they are all rare delicacies in the world, not my old man bragging , I’ve traveled all over the world in my life, and I’ve eaten all over the world, but compared to the dishes I’ve eaten in the past few days, those before are all dross.”
