Chapter 299: Adding Boxes

Mrs. Tai asked about Master Jian: How about you invite her to our home and let her take care of our sewing people? I heard that you often draw clothes for them to make, but sometimes they still can't do it.

Come out. If Master Jian can come, you can save some trouble.

Eleven Niang's home clothes are very simple, but when there are guests present, she usually dresses up. If she goes to other people's homes as guests, she has not worn a duplicate since she married to the Yongping Marquis Mansion. This is what she used to do

Dressing habits can be divided into formal and informal. Informal, focusing on comfort. Formal, focusing on elegance and splendor.

She discovered that the women in the Xu Mansion had a lot of clothes, and then her habit gradually came to the fore. Unexpectedly, the wife discovered it.

Eleven Niang said with a smile: Yanjing is relatively cold, and I don’t know if Master Jian is willing to come. I’ll have someone take a message to Hangzhou.

The madam smiled and nodded: It's a pity that the family has few heirs. Otherwise, Master Jian can teach the ladies how to be a prostitute when he comes.

In fact, Eleven Niang has always kept in mind the idea of ​​inviting Master Jian to come to Yanjing. It’s not that it’s not good to be in Hangzhou. After all, Hangzhou is Master Jian’s hometown. At that time, people usually felt that their hometown was good.

Going to other places to make a living is a matter of leaving her hometown. And she has a steady source of students there, but if she can come to Yanjing to be gilded and then go back, her net worth will be higher. She didn't have the chance before, but now that the Madam has said this, she decided to become loyal

When Qin Bofu came back, he asked Luo Zhenxing to help bring a letter to Master Jian.

The wife talked about the obscene clothes that Eleven Niang made for her two days ago: The peonies were well embroidered and looked like real ones. Fortunately, they were worn inside. If they were worn by outsiders, they would probably be laughed at.

If you like it, Eleven Niang said with a smile, but it’s just a few embroidered flowers on the sleeves and hem, so there’s no reason to be laughed at.

From now on, I'd better let the sewing and thread people do the work, the lady said, it takes too much time on my eyes.

If I'm too busy, I won't make it for you. Eleven Niang said, these days are quite free, so I made one for you.

The two of them chatted and laughed and went to Uncle Zhongqin's Mansion.

Knowing that they were here to add boxes to Miss Seventh, the people from the Gan family's affairs office sent someone to report to Mrs. Gan, and at the same time sent the mother-in-law to respectfully welcome them in.

Both families were marquises, and their houses had similar styles. There was no sense of strangeness at all. The Eleventh Niang helped the wife to the cross-yard to the east of the main hall.

As soon as I walked to the courtyard gate, I saw Mrs. Gan walking out surrounded by maids and women.

She wore a bright red and gold-covered jacket, and her beautiful face looked a little tired. She smiled and greeted the wife from a distance: "You, the old man, came and welcomed the two of them to the main room to sit down."

Are you busy with Lanting's marriage? Mrs. Gan looked at Mrs. Gan with a smile. You should also pay attention to rest.

Mrs. Gan smiled gratefully after hearing this: The main reason is that I like to worry about it.

While they were exchanging pleasantries, a little maid served tea.

Song’s mother handed the gift list to the mother next to Mrs. Gan. Mrs. Gan said a few polite words. During this period, the mother in charge asked Mrs. Gan to give her instructions for Lanting’s marriage. A little maid came in and said: Marquis Yongchang

Madam is here

This is really a surprise for Mrs. Qiao.

You two are really destined to be together. Mrs. Gan also smiled and stood up to welcome Mrs. Huang in.

Mrs. Huang was also accompanied by Grandma Huang. Everyone had a long talk before getting up and going to Lanting.

Eleven Niang was secretly surprised when she discovered that Lanting lived in the small courtyard to the east of the main house.

I didn't expect her living place to be so small.

When Lan Ting saw Eleven Niang, she couldn't help but open her eyes wide.

Eleven Niang smiled slightly at her.

Only then did Lan Ting come to his senses and stepped forward to salute everyone.

Everyone laughed and sat in the hall.

Mrs. Tai held Lan Ting's hand, and Mrs. Huang said many auspicious words.

Although Lan Ting listened openly, his face couldn't help but turn red.

Mrs. Tai looked at it and laughed, and said: Okay, okay, I won't annoy you anymore. Let Eleven Niang stay and talk to you. Let's go sit in your mother's room and wait with Mrs. Gan.

Returned to Mrs. Gan's place.

Gan Lanting smiled and looked at Eleven Niang up and down.

What's wrong? Eleven Niang also looked at herself, fearing that there was something wrong.

Very beautiful, Gan Lanting said with a smile.

Eleven Niang accepted it with a smile. Talking about what happened before: She sent me a post to invite me to the banquet, but unfortunately I couldn’t come. I have been thinking about this in my heart.

Alas, Gan Lanting waved his hand indifferently after hearing this. He came here just to eat and drink. Then he took her to sit in the inner room. It's rare for you to come here, so we can have a good talk.

The maids are sorting the boxes and cages.

Lan Ting said modestly: It's a bit confusing.

Eleven Niang said hurriedly: I am building a house there. It is even messier than your place.

You have such a small family and you still build a house. Gan Lanting and Shi Yi Niang sat on the kang near the window. It’s not like our family. The four generations have not been separated and they all live together. It’s inconvenient for her to stretch her legs.

Joking to myself.

No wonder her place of residence is so small

Eleven Niang smiled and took out a purse from her sleeves and gave it to Lanting: a few southern beads. If you find a suitable style, take them out and decorate them.

Lanting accepted it with a smile and thanked Eleven Niang.

A little maid served tea.

Lanting asked Shiniang: How is she now?

Eleven Niang said: I saw her last time when my tenth brother-in-law was pregnant. Then I thought about it and told her the truth. We were not very close when we were young, and she didn't want to see me.

Lan Ting nodded seriously: I also saw it during that spring banquet. Sometimes, people have to talk about fate. The tone was very gentle.

Eleven Niang felt warm in her heart and asked about Cao E: Why don’t you see the third lady?

As soon as the voice fell, the door curtain was suddenly lifted, and a woman wearing a red gown walked in.

Eleven Niang took a closer look and saw that it was Cao E.

She was holding a few pieces of clothing in her hands, and as she walked away, she was mumbling: She was about to get married, so why didn't she care so much. These pieces of clothing were all made of fine silk. Even if she didn't like them, she could still give them to the maid.

They raised their eyebrows and saw Eleven Niang sitting in the room. She quickly stopped the topic and said with a smile, Mrs. Yongpinghou is here.

Eleven Niang stood up and greeted her. Lan Ting, who was sitting next to her, burst into laughter: Let’s call Eleven Niang. If you do this, you’ll call Eleven Niang old.

Cao E had a straight face after hearing this: What nonsense are you talking about again? Then she apologized to Eleven Niang with an apologetic face. Don't take it to heart, Mrs. Yongpinghou. My seventh sister has a straightforward temper.

Eleven Niang was very envious of Lan Ting and Cao E's quarrels and scoldings, but they still seemed affectionate. She smiled and said: Miss Third, you should call me Eleven Niang. Speaking of which, we knew each other before I got married.

Cao E still hesitated after hearing this.

Lanting laughed: You see, the eleventh mother is not willing

Cao E glared at her and just called Eleven Niang, when she heard a noise coming from outside the house. Cao E's face sank and she told her maid: Go and see who is making the noise. Leave it to the ladies.

Dispose of it.

The little maid answered the call and left tremblingly.

Cao E hurriedly explained to Eleven Niang: There are a lot of things going on at home these days, and the maids and women can't help but be a little impetuous.

The maids and women are also human beings, and they cannot be silent all the time. Cao E may have felt that it was a loss of face for the guests to see such a scene.

Just as Eleven Niang was about to open her mouth to relieve the siege, the little maid lifted the curtain and entered.

Her face was a little pale, and she glanced at Eleven Niang as soon as she entered the door, but hesitated to speak.

Eleven Niang stood up and said goodbye: I just wanted to see you. I may have to go to the Liang family for a wedding banquet on the day you leave the cabinet, so I won’t be able to come to see you off.

Cao E glanced at the maid, her face was ugly, but she forced Eleven Niang to stay with a smile: "Sit for a while longer."

But Lan Ting smiled and said: You are now someone else's wife, so we won't keep you. If I hold a banquet next time, you must be there.

Definitely, Eleven Niang must have smiled and the two sisters sent her out.

I met two maids on the road, hurriedly heading to the east courtyard.

Although Eleven Niang was surprised, this was a family matter of the Gan family after all. She pretended not to see it and went to Mrs. Gan's place.

Grandma Huang San was talking about something, making Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Huang laugh, but she didn't see Mrs. Gan. Seeing Eleven Niang come back, Mrs. Tai smiled and said: "You have finished talking so quickly."

Eleven Niang smiled and said: She is also busy. I can't wait too much.

Madam Tai's jaw slightly twitched.

Grandma Huang San held her hand and said: This dress is so beautiful.

The madam pursed her lips and smiled, looking very proud.

Mrs. Huang smiled and said: It's still the same as when she was young. She only feels happy when she has to dominate others. She is too young to be useful anymore, so she lets her daughter-in-law show off.

Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Huang were very casual. They smiled and said to Eleven Niang: Come tomorrow, make some clothes for your third sister-in-law of the Huang family, so that your Aunt Huang will not become jealous when she looks at you.

Oops, Grandma Huang San smiled and twisted her waist, what kind of look can I wear with a bucket like this?

Not to mention the two ladies, even the waiters in the room covered their mouths and smiled.

Grandma Huang San seemed to find the atmosphere bad, and sighed resentfully, using a voice that was lowered but could be heard by everyone: In the past, your third brother called me a teapot, but it has only been two or three years, and I just
