The pergola was raised in Ruicai's yard early, and stood up with fir poles and bamboo poles. The top rack was matted with foil. The east side of the trellis was led by ivy with green leaves and silver edges, and to the west was a large cluster of bougainvilleas. Now flowers were blooming, and purple velvet stacked in pieces.

"When these vine leaves grow to the top and cover the sky with their hands, they can remove the mat!" Ruicai squinted her eyes and looked at these vines that were growing beautifully. "The three of us sisters are afraid of heat, so it doesn't matter if the skylight is not open in this pergola."

Gai Cai also smiled and said, "I like to play Go with my elder sister under the awning. In midsummer, the stone table is cooler. I guarded the lotus jar, and the cicadas couldn't stop it."

Ruicai said bluntly: "I always lose."

"Is Bougainvillea easy to raise here?" Xiaoxiao was also moved when she saw the clusters of purples.

"It's not easy to raise," said Ruicai. "This flower was bought from the Wen family last year. Their gardeners often come to maintain it."

Xiaoxiao was too lazy to raise this one: "Then it's better to plant loofah honestly, you can pick one of it and cook it at any time to apply it to your face."

"That's true," Ruicai took it seriously, and said to the girl: "Let's plant a loofah and apply it to your face with juice."

"It's so scary." When Shan Niang heard that she was going to plant loofahs in the yard, she commented like this in her first sentence.

Shan Niang's yard had just started, and the pergola was also set up, and she smiled and said, "I was still exposed before leaving, but this pergola was set up just now!"

Ci Gu smiled and said, "There are some things to do with this awning. It must be built before noon. When you set it, you must not be allowed to speak, so you must be built quietly."

This is probably a special gesture code for this line. Unfortunately, it is not convenient for women to watch the building of a shed with their own eyes, otherwise it would be interesting to watch the workers whispering and whispering.

"The girl's yard is also built. Mrs. Gang'er said that it looks good with some vines, which can lead Lingxiao from the east wing courtyard."

Xiaoxiao shook his head: "The one that is orange-yellow, it looks hot in summer."

Shanniang pointed to the stone vines with small white flowers blooming in her yard: "I'm attracting white flower vines here. It is said that this flower is slightly poisonous, but I like its faint refreshing air the most."

"It's really good. Then I'll read under my mother's pergola." Xiaoxiao imagined it would be nice. "I plant loofahs in my yard. Planting it all year round is cheap, so that the wooden vines can be saved if they have to find ways to lead them elsewhere when they are removed in the autumn."

"Luffa?" Shanniang was stunned and said straight: "It's so scary."

The girls also nodded desperately. In the girl's yard, begonia and banana trees, and the green bamboos of Lingxiao, even the silk-leafed Tangpine grass that is specially selected along the steps, and a large bunch of smiling flowers specially selected by the master, secretly touching the girl's name. Imagine such an elegant yard, with huge loofahs hanging on the rooftop, and the fat and swaying in the wind. There are always those who are old before they can pick them. They are yellow and dry with skins, twist off the hammer to dry the skins, throw out the seeds, and take out the old loofah pulp and wash the dishes...

"It's always ugly to grow loofahs in the girl's yard," Shanniang really couldn't accept this. "If you like it, let the girls plant it in the backyard. They can plant loofahs and lentils, and old cucumbers."

"Hey!" The girls responded in unison, and the wife's words were the imperial edict in the back house.

Shan Niang touched the top of her head with a smile: "If you like the village style, just plant a small gourd, which is also full of greenery and a blessing."

The gourd baby, the gourd baby, seven flowers on a vine... said with a smile: "Well, let me lead one, since the meaning is so good."

It would be even better if the gourd could meet the meaning of melon and melon.

"Okay." Shan Niang smiled at her daughter and said, "The gift box you brought back contains a large box of Anhui snacks. I saw that the macaque, baking cake, gold, and white cuts are all there. Isn't the Wei family girl from Hebei?"

"We are living next to the Wei family for school aid. We added vegetables to us at noon. Who knew that we also sent me a snack box for me to eat and take it." Xiaoxiao.

Shan Niang nodded: "You have started to communicate slowly at this age. You are not afraid when you leave the palace. You have also taken a lot of effort to deal with gifts."

"I just think that going back to the Tang family's Four Seasons gift box is a bit too face-saving. If it's a bit childish when it comes to the cookies you make at home, it's probably her elders who want to go through this gift box." Xiaoxiao thought for a while, "She is an Anhui specialty. If we give it to Yanzhou, it's too close to Beijing, so there's nothing new to give."

Shan Niang just smiled: "Anhui is a little famous, but we also have it in Zhejiang."

"By the way, you can give Zhejiang specialties! Especially from Lanxi!" Xiaoxiao thought of this and looked at her mother's eyes, thinking that she was the mistress of the family who had experience in giving gifts, and the gifts were both fresh and appropriate.

Xiaoxiao and her mother discussed the specialty products in Zhejiang and prepared a snack list for the kitchen to make. After discussing, they discussed several things: orchid crispy, moon, moss slices, lotus root candy, fruit honey cake, orange cake...

"The crab shell yellow sesame cakes in Anhui are Huangshan sesame cakes, and the crab shell yellow sesame cakes in our Zhejiang are Huangqiao sesame cakes," Xiaoxiao ordered Taohong: "Give a box to each of the Wei family and the Zhu family, and put a box to the old lady."

Shan Niang said again: "Don't put too much sweet stuff in the old lady's box. She doesn't taste sweet. Last time the Su-style snacks given by her uncle, she thought it was too sweet. She put the moss sliced ​​slices, thousand-layer crisps, pine nut cakes, and □□ crisps. I remember she praised the prawn crisps made by Rui Niang. If there are ready-made ones, serve them."

Xiaoxiao sighed that his mother was considerate: "My classmate Ruicai usually looks careless, but who knows that he is very knowledgeable when starting a business, so I have to learn it slowly."
