The new mansion where Li Haitang lives has been re-hung with a plaque, with a black background, gold paint, and three words: 奁匣亭.The plaque is still the one that has been inherited for a hundred years, and the identity of the hostess who lives in the house is still very noble, and only the big mansion has changed.The patriarchs, lords, and wives of the eight major clans gathered together.Hanging plaques, worshipping, and adding new joy, each item is carried out according to the ceremony, and even the chestnut begonia is very busy.I didn't even drink saliva for a whole day, and finally when everyone dispersed, Li Haitang had a moment to rest.An hour later, she would go to the west courtyard of the mansion to kneel down, which had been re-established as a place to worship the immortal thrones of the previous Fengxian aunts, until the three towers of the Pavilion were rebuilt, and then the immortal positions were moved back.Qingluo came in with a bowl of red dates and ginger soup, and when she saw the begonias lying motionless on the hot kang, she said distressedly: "The big girl should drink a bowl of red dates and ginger soup to warm up her body."
Kneeling in the west courtyard at night, they didn't even let a brazier be used, they were intent on freezing the big girl to death. ”"Phew!
Whatever you say, you are not afraid of taboos. ”Sister-in-law Li came in the door, and when she heard Qingluo's words, she immediately spat on the ground, put the dinner on the small kang table, and said, "Don't worry, big girl, Sister-in-law Yang, Chef Liu and I have already discussed."
They don't allow charcoal braziers, so let's prepare more soup pots.They didn't let the slaves and maids into the house, but they didn't say they were allowed to go into the yard.They made the eldest girl kneel, but they didn't say that they were not allowed to drink water. ”"Hahaha, Grandma Li opens the chatterbox, and black can also be said to be white."
Yang Yanyan and Liu Erniang came in, carrying a bowl of soup and a bowl of vegetarian porridge respectively.Li Haitang stretched out her arms and asked Qingluo to sit up, and when she saw the three bowls of soup and water, her little face immediately collapsed.Aggrieved to Liu Erniang: "Chef Liu can't bear to see me kneeling when I'm hungry and cold?"
What if I pass out during the night?
”Several people's eyes lit up.Yes?
How could they not have thought of this?
Sister-in-law Li broke her mouth and said, "Hurry up, take these away, and let the eldest girl go to kneel hungry." ”When Li Haitang heard the fire, he shouted: "Sister-in-law Li!
”"Ouch, don't be loud, little ancestor, I'm not deaf."
Sister-in-law Li held the dinner tray with one hand and covered her ears with the other.Li Haitang climbed to the edge of the kang and snatched a bowl of dumpling noodles on the tray, and threatened to protect the food: "Whoever snatches the noodles, I will hit whomever the board." ”Li Yan's grandmother wanted to stretch out her hand, but she was so frightened that she hurriedly retracted.Yang Yanyan and Liu Erniang hid their faces and snickered, and Qingluo also turned her head and bit her lip to hold back a smile.Li Haitang bent his arm around the noodle bowl and ate it with relish, and said while eating: "People outside bully, and you also bully me."
I didn't even give saliva for a day, and I was dizzy with hunger before noon for the clear soup I ate for breakfast, but fortunately, Mrs.
Mo was considerate and secretly gave me half a piece of steamed bun. ”"In my opinion, the eldest girl shouldn't even eat that half of the bun."
Sister-in-law Li was straightforward and fast-talking, and when she saw that Haitang had eaten most of the bowl of noodles, she hurriedly grabbed it, and motioned to Qingluo to send red dates and ginger soup with her eyes.Li Haitang stared at the few remaining dumpling noodles with unfinished eyes, and raised a finger and begged: "Grandma Li is the best, let me eat another bite."
Just one bite, okay?
”Li shook her head."
A small bite?"
Li shook her head."
One?"
Li shook her head."
Sister-in-law Li, I order you to put down the bowl.Wasting food will be damned, do you want to see me struck by lightning?
”Li Haitang was annoyed and knelt on the kang and lost her temper.Sister-in-law Li retreated to the door of the house and said, "The eldest girl should drink more soup, soup, and porridge, and go to the hut a few more times at night." ”"Phew!
I won't go ......"
Li Haitang was arrogant, and suddenly a flash of inspiration seemed to guess something, and he looked at Yang Yanyan and the others incomprehensibly, "Huh?
What do you mean?
”Yang Yanxi smiled slightly, asked Li and Liu Erniang to go to dinner, and asked Qingluo to prepare a thick cotton jacket and cotton skirt for Begonia."
Big girl, sit down first and try this bowl of red dates and ginger soup.Chef Liu boiled it for an hour, and put something to remove the pungency of the ginger, and the old slave tasted it very well. ”"Sister-in-law Yang, what did you discuss, why did you force me to drink soup?"
Li Haitang took a small sip of red date and ginger soup to taste, and there was indeed no spicy taste of ginger.Sister-in-law Yang handed over the spoon and said, "The eldest girl is very smart, how could she not guess the stupid methods of the old slaves."
Drink more bowls of soup and kneel less.Qingluo is guarding the door, serving the eldest girl, and replacing the warm soup woman. ”Li Haitang didn't believe Yang Yan's prevarication, drank dried red dates and ginger soup in one go, stuffed the empty bowl into Yang Yan's hand, and made a small face unhappy.Yang Yanyan pursed her lips and smiled, turned around and went to the outhouse to call Qingluo to come in and dress Begonia.Qingluo entered the house with a thick cotton jacket and said, "The people sent out have spread the news, and when the eldest girl enters the west courtyard, we will lock the door again." ”"Okay."
Yang Yanyan gave Qingluo a complimenting look and went out with the empty bowl.Li Haitang sat in front of the dresser and waited for Qingluo, and saw Yang and Qingluo whispering through the mirror of the makeup, and saw Qingluo secretly stuffing a small bamboo pipe to Yang Yan.This kind of small bamboo pipe has been seen in the study of Zhuge Yi and Ling Eighteen, and it is a secret letter passed by the flying pigeon.Could it be that this big mansion given to her by Ling Ye has a place to raise flying pigeons?
Qingluo came behind Begonia, and her dexterous hands coiled up in an elegant and dignified bun.Li Haitang endured it until she finished her makeup, and then she said cruelly: "I will spare you if you guys hide what I am plotting."
Next time, I'll send you to the Cold Night Valley. ”Qingluo was not afraid, and said with a smile: "Don't be angry, big girl, you have to be patient and wait."
The slave and maid used their heads as a guarantee, and within two hours, a distinguished guest came to the door to ask for tea and food. ”"Okay.I'm going to wait patiently to see what the hell you're up to. ”"We'll see."
Qingluo pretended to smile mysteriously, personally changed Li Haitang's clothes, and accompanied her to a quiet courtyard on the west side of the mansion.The west courtyard, the place where the ancestors of the past dynasties were enshrined, was named Xian'e Pavilion.The five main rooms are opened, with a shrine platform and incense ding, and the strong sandalwood fragrance can be smelled through the cracks in the door.The three wings on the east and west are temporarily used as resting places for the ladies of the eight major clans to take a break when they come to worship.The inverted room is the dwelling and account room of the old deacon's sister-in-law.A fire destroyed the Pavilion, and the old deacon's sister-in-law was knocked unconscious and taken away by the secret guards sent by Li Haitang, so her life was saved.Now Li Haitang temporarily lives here, taking the old deacon and sister-in-law out of the shack in the ruins of the Qiqiao Pavilion, where Anpai continues to guard the immortal position of the ancestors of the past dynasties.Seeing that Li Haitang was coming, the old deacon's sister-in-law stepped forward and knelt down and said, "Today's merits of the first daughter can be recorded in the eight clans of the first daughter, and the old slave will spend the rest of his life writing a biography of merit for the first daughter." ”"Old deacon, please get up.Where does the begonia have any merit, just ask for no fault. ”Li Haitang personally helped the old deacon and walked into the five main rooms with her."
Feng Xiannu, this place has not yet been named.The people of the eight major clans of the old slave generation asked the ancestors to leave their names for this. ”Standing at the foot of the stone steps in front of the room, the old deacon was willing to ask.() Glory to the end
