Delicate Flower

Chapter 144: An Ren

Sit down and talk?

But where is a stool?

Sit on Luohan's bed?

Isn't it appropriate?

Yu Tang was entangled there, and the little maid brought in an embroidered mound with black lacquer and red suede.

She blushed a little bit, to Lao An... No, Pei Yan's mother was like this. Actually, she couldn't get in touch with the title of "Lao An," but it was wrong to call Mrs. Pei, Mrs. Pei, Pei. The old man seems to have only a fame for judging people, and he can't be called a wife... But Master Pei died in the post of the Ministry of Engineering, and the Ministry of Engineering is the third grade. Didn't he ask his mother to seal it? No matter how bad it is, he should be a fourth-rank ruin, right?

Yu Tang didn't know his face was struggling, but he was still there, bending his knees slightly, giving a blessing, and half sitting on the embroidered pier.

Lao An was very interesting.

Although this little girl's emotions and desires are not all on her face, a caring person can still see clearly.

No wonder Xia Guang finds her interesting. Seeing that she is always unhappy, she called the little girl into the mansion to relieve her boredom.

Lao An sat down on Luohan's bed, and Aunt Chen personally served refreshments.

She raised her hand holding the tea cup and said, "You taste, do you like the autumn tea delivered from Xinyang a few days ago?"

Yu Tang took a sip. It is the ordinary tea flavor, I can't taste what kind of tea it is, but the aftertaste is sweet and the tea smells delicate, it should be a good tea.

The temperature in the room was a bit high, and she took another sip.

When Lao An saw it, he smiled and said, "How is it? Does it taste good?"

Of course it's delicious!

Yu Tang's words came to her lips. Suddenly remembered what her mother had told him, and then looked at Lao An's overall style, she probably didn't know a lot. She was showing off in front of Lao An, and could catch this sentence. , You may not be able to catch the next sentence, even if you catch the next sentence by luck, what about the next sentence?

She decided to follow her heart.

"It's delicious." Yu Tang said respectfully, "It's sweet and mellow. I don't know what kind of tea it is? I don't know much about tea."

Lao An was a little surprised, but seeing her be honest, she nodded secretly and smiled and said, "Xinyang sent it from Xinyang Maojian. This is the tea just picked in autumn, which is commonly known as Qiulu tea."

Yu Tang doesn't quite understand these.

In the past, the hospitality at home was Longjing, Biluochun, Lushan Yunwu, etc. She was not familiar with other teas. Pei’s family is rich and wealthy, and all generations have had children who have been in official positions. He must have seen specialties of any place, not to mention that Lao An was born in a wealthy family and his knowledge is even more extraordinary.

She immediately felt the heart to ask for advice, and respectfully said: "Is Xinyang only tipped?"

Lao An was choked by the question.

She doesn't know whether Xinyang only produces Maojian tea. But the tea that can be delivered to their home should only be Maojian, right?

Did this little girl pick her thorn on purpose? Still don't understand?

Lao An glanced at Yu Tang.

The big apricot eyes were black and white, bright like stars, flickering and flickering, really curious.

Lao An coughed uncomfortably, and said, "You have to ask Hu Xing and the others. I have only drank Maojian over the years."

That is natural.

Of course, to send it is to send the best thing.

Yu Tang nodded sincerely.

Lao An felt that the topic shouldn’t revolve around their family affairs, otherwise he would be too passive, so he said, “I heard that you are good at making dim sum. What kind of dim sum are you good at?"

Yu Tang's face flushed, and said: "My mother is good at making snacks, so I just messed up beside me, so I don't dare to praise him as Lao An."

Lao An was stunned and said, "Didn't you make the peanut crisps you sent last time? I thought it was okay after eating."

Yu Tang was a little guilty.

She made peanut cakes, but she didn't think of it, but she had eaten them in a previous life, and listened to other people's methods, and went back to study carefully for a long time before she had the craft of this life.

"I made that peanut cake." She flushed, "But it was my mom who helped me watch it out."

Lao An was a little disappointed.

She didn't really call people to eat a few peanut crisps. You know, she doesn't even need to say, as long as she wants to eat peanut crisps, there are a lot of people who flatter them, and someone will hold peanut crisps and ask her to taste it. She had a special opinion on Yu Tang. Firstly, she did not want to spill the face of her younger son, and wanted to make him feel at ease; secondly, after she stopped being a maid, the widow lived here in Hemingtang, and her life suddenly calmed down. She was not used to it for a while, and wanted to find someone to talk to. But now I saw Miss Yu, only to find that this Miss Yu is really good-looking except for her face, no matter how she speaks or her temperament, there is nothing particularly amazing about her.

Then have a cup of tea and appreciate something to be taken back.

Lao An was thinking and asked what Yu Tang usually does at home, where he reads the book, and how his parents are healthy.

Yu Tang answered with a smile one by one.

The smile, the eyebrows stretched out, looked particularly sweet.

The more you look, the better you look.

The little girls in the family are really incomparable.

Even among the in-laws, it is also the first one.

It's just that beautiful girls are easy to find, but girls with brains are not so easy to find.

Lao An smiled slightly, thinking that no matter how she was recommended to her by her son, she had to find something worthy of praise anyway, so that Ms. Yu would rise up in front of the servant’s wife, and come to Pei’s house in the future. The person took a high look.

At a glance, she saw the camphor and stalk lotus silk flowers on Yu Tang's head.

"This flower is very unique." The old man smiled, "Did you buy it from Suzhou? Or is it now that Lin'an city also sells Soviet-style silk flowers?"

Yu Tang smiled and touched the silk flower on the side of the bun, and said, "I made this myself. However, it looks like a Soviet style. Lao An is really good-sighted."

"Oh!" Lao An was suddenly interested and said, "I didn't expect you to have such a pair of skillful hands."

She embroiders a veil by herself and can't do it well, so she especially likes little girls with dexterous hands.

Yu Tang said embarrassedly: "It's not a skill, but it's just to pass the time when you have nothing to do." After speaking, she tentatively said, "If you find it good-looking, I'll go back and make a few flowers for you. I don’t know what color do you like? What style? I can make bees, butterflies, etc., which can be parked on flowers. Should I make a few for you alone, or hang them on the placket, I feel quite interesting. of."

"How can you still do this?" Lao An said in surprise, "Hang it on the lap of his clothes? How to hang it?"

Yu Tang explained to her meticulously: "Like a dragonfly, it can be made to be as big as the real one. Then I used some glass beads to make the eyes, the silk yarn made the wings, and then the tassels were dropped and hung on the placket as an ornament. ."

Lao An was very interested when he heard it, and said, "In addition to doing this, what else do you do?"

Yu Tang smiled and said: "Basically, I can do everything I wear on my head. I even made a forehead pampered with precious stones for my mom."

A widow can't dress up too gorgeously, but as long as he is a beauty-loving person, it is impossible not to dress up at all.

Lao An said, "Then you can make me a few plain silk flowers? In a few days, it will be the Chongyang Festival, and several juniors in the family will come over to greet me." After that, she remembered that today is the beginning of September. It’s five, I’m afraid it’s too late, and laughed again, “Just give it to me before the first day of October. I’ll go to Zhaoming Temple with my two brothers, Qiming and Xiaoguang, to do rituals for their father.”

After speaking, her eyes darkened and she sighed almost inaudibly.

Yu Tang followed his eyes with slightly sour eyes.

At the beginning, she and Li Jun had no feelings. When Li Jun was a widow, she would sigh for Li Jun's parents when she thought of Li Jun's death. Lao An had lived with Mrs. Pei for more than 30 years, and had three sons. At this moment, thinking of her deceased husband, she didn't know how uncomfortable it was!

She hurriedly said: "I like to make silk flowers when I am fine. There are still a few flowers that are about to be completed at home. I will let you show them first. After the Double Ninth Festival, I will make some new ones for you. "

To meet the occasion, Yu Tang made several dark green and pink chrysanthemums before. Pink is not suitable. The dark green Lao An should be able to wear it?

She wondered in her heart.

Lao An said: "If you are not free, just let the maid at home send it over. If you are free, come and sit with me with silk flowers and talk to me."

Yu Tang replied respectfully, thinking that Xia Guang is the character of Pei Yan, and that Qiming should be the character of Pei Xuan, the second master of the Pei family. I don’t know if they can also go to the dojo on the first day of October to offer incense to the old man Pei?

She spoke with Lao An in the Pei Mansion for a while, and when she saw a woman come in and asked Lao An to show her, she hurriedly got up to say goodbye.

Lao An didn't keep her, and asked her to enter the mansion after making the silk flowers, and pointed to Auntie Ji: "If you have anything to do in the future, please look for her."

Yu Tang replied, and went out of the courtyard where Lao An lived with Aunt Ji.

Aunt Ji said to her with a joyful look: "Miss Yu is really rare. Whose girl has been invited into the mansion by the old An in my family for so many years? You are back, remember to talk to your mom."

From now on, Yu Tang will have someone to help her no matter what she does.

Yu Tang is mainly used to taking the path of Pei Yan. He didn’t think about other things. He thought that Aunt Ji was just happy that she was pleased with Lao An. He smiled and thanked Aunt Ji and went back. Just talked to Chen's.

Chen was too happy to know what to do, and repeatedly urged her to take out the finished silk flowers, and try to pick some plain colors and send them to Pei's house. I also found a tailor to come home, made several plain clothes for Yu Tang, and said: “It’s the first time to be a guest at someone’s house. It’s respectful to dress ceremoniously. It’s not easy for people to dress too brightly."

Yu Tang felt that Lao An, like Pei Yan, were not very close people. He could accidentally fall out of favor because of silk flowers being valued by Lao An, so he didn't need to make clothes specially for this matter. But Chen didn't listen, and felt that even if Lao An's fresh energy passed after a few days, it would be good to make a few more clothes and change to wear.

She doesn't argue with her mother, as long as the mother is happy!

Yu Tang picked a few nice-looking ones from the box with silk flowers, replaced them with a red-lacquered round-mouth box, and went to Pei's Mansion.
