Chapter 290: Mooncake
Chapter 290 ·Mooncakes
Tang Xueru covered her mouth and laughed, but she couldn't explain why.
She heard all these things from her mother. Huang disliked her for being a child and refused to say more. Her own knowledge was limited, so how could she answer Tang Xuexuan's confusion?
Tang Xuezhen threw her hand away helplessly, "I really can't count on you for anything. It's in vain that I'm so nice to you." After saying that, he tied up his clothes again and ran quickly to Bai Rongxuan's house.
Bai Rongxuan was being accompanied by Wu Ma and Xiao Yuan. Ma Wu gave Bai Rongxuan soothing incense at Tang's request. Bai Rongxuan had been busy embroidering peacocks these days. Tang was worried that she wouldn't be able to sleep well at night.
She is weak, don’t go back and make her body suffer again, so she specially gave her some spices to help her sleep. Wu’s mother was also worried about Bai Rongxuan
Don't take it seriously, and advise with gentle words, "Don't think of these incense as something only used by the elderly. It is always beneficial to light a small piece before going to bed. Madam can rely on
The only ones left are you and Master Zhi. Master Zhi is thousands of miles away and she has nothing to worry about. She can only put all her thoughts on you."
Bai Rongxuan smiled and accepted it, and asked Wu Ma to convey her gratitude to her mother.
Wu Ma smiled honestly, "You and your wife are of the same mind. She cares about you and you care about her. The relationship between mother and daughter is the most intimate. What else can I be thankful for?"
After Wu Ma finished speaking, she didn't leave in a hurry. She chatted with Bai Rongxuan for a while, and especially told her to pay attention to her eyes. Bai Rongxuan wanted to laugh when she heard that. No matter in the past life or this life, Wu Ma was particularly worried about her eyes. In the past life,
When she was in the Peking Courtyard, whenever she read a book for a little longer, Wu Ma would come over and remind her, saying it didn't work, and she would ask Meng Fansheng to be her helper.
Meng Fansheng...
I don’t know how he is getting along with his brother in Nanjing now?
Bai Rongxuan decided to ask her brother about his friends there next time. If his brother mentioned Meng Fansheng, she would ask more about Meng Fansheng when she wrote back.
The two of them were chatting, and Xiao Yuan followed Mr. Huang's instructions and came over to deliver the newly made moon cakes from the stove. The aroma of the freshly baked moon cakes was so fragrant that it made people move with their index fingers just by smelling it. Xiao Yuan said with a smile, "This is
The fillings for the five-nut filling are all mixed by Madam Ma herself. The roasted peanuts and almonds are particularly fragrant and you can smell them from a long way away. The lady said that she will also make fillings with lotus paste, jujube paste and bean paste later.
I'll deliver it to Miss Xuan after it's baked."
Bai Rongxuan touched her head and said, "You have made so much, can you finish it?"
When Xiao Yuan heard this, she immediately covered her mouth and laughed, "Yes, yes. Madam said that she would also give some to the shopkeepers and clerks of the two shops of the Tang family, and also to the homes of regular customers. This is all
It may not be enough.”
Bai Rongxuan smiled slightly, took out a mooncake from the plate and handed it to her, "Xiaoyuan is so good, I'll give you this mooncake to eat."
Xiaoyuan waved her hand, "These are for Miss Xuan. Madam has already rewarded me. Madam gave me and Sister Chuntao and Sister Sanxi three mooncakes each. We have already discussed it and are ready to wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Take it out and eat it.”
Mr. Huang is generous and always treats his servants generously.
Bai Rongxuan stuffed the moon cake into Xiao Yuan's hand, "This piece is for you to eat now, not to mention I have so many, I won't be able to finish them in a while."
Madoka's face became very hesitant.
Mother Wu said from the side, "Just take what the lady gave you. In the future, if you come to talk to the lady often, it will be in vain that the lady loves you so much."
Xiao Yuan happily nodded and agreed, happily holding the moon cakes and ran out.
Bai Rongxuan took the opportunity to ask Wu's mother about sending things to her brother in Nanjing during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Since Bai Xiuzhi won't come back for the festival, her family must send her something. Bai Rongxuan plans to go to Faxi Temple to ask for a peace charm to be sent to him.
Wu Ma said, "The old lady and Madam Huang have already started preparing
Don't worry, no one will be missing to manage the young master. As the saying goes, a poor family has a rich life, and it is not easy for him to be alone outside. Not only the madam is thinking about him, but the old lady and Madam Huang also care about him.
There are many things on our minds, and the two of them have already arranged them before Madam can think of them."
Although Mrs. Tang is already old, her mind is still as simple as that of a little girl. If Mrs. Tang and Mrs. Huang hadn't helped her remember many things and relied on her alone, she might have been in such a hurry.
For example, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Mrs. Tang and Mrs. Tang sent things to Bai Xiuzhi who was far away in Nanjing.
Mrs. Huang knew how to plan ahead and make arrangements in advance, but Ms. Tang had a slow-moving nature. She didn't think that something might go wrong on the way and delay her, or that things could be delivered to her son earlier and he could use them first. It was all according to her own ideas.
Come on, as if there are no unexpected situations in this world.
Sometimes Wu's mother doesn't know what to say to her.
Bai Rongxuan nodded, planning to go to Faxi Temple in the next few days. It would be best to invite Zhang Yunniang to accompany her. However, there are many things at home recently, and she doesn't know if her grandmother and aunt will agree... The two were talking, and Tang Xuexuan looked at her
He ran in in a hurry, not even knocking on the door because he was anxious. As soon as Bai Rongxuan saw his face, she knew that it was Tang Xueru, a fast talker, who ignored Huang's instructions and told him about Mrs. Zhang's matchmaking.
It was related to her lifelong happiness. Tang Xuexuan's reaction was within Bai Rongxuan's expectation, so she was not surprised or surprised at all. Before Tang Xuexuan could speak, she said straight to the point, "Brother Xuexuan, you are here because of Mrs. Zhang's matter, right? Zhang
We weren't there when my wife arrived, but my aunt mentioned a few words when she was sending her away, and we listened for a while. If you are really curious, why not ask your grandmother, she will definitely know about this.
The inside story."
Bai Rongxuan came up with ideas for Tang Xuexuan.
Tang Xuexuan muttered hesitantly, "I'm not sure what happened. Is it okay if I rush to ask my grandmother like this? Will she think I'm not steady enough?"
Bai Rongxuan couldn't help laughing after hearing this, "You are obviously concerned and confused. This is a major event in your life. It is normal for you to be curious and nervous. Grandma is used to seeing big events, how could she not understand your thoughts?
? Just go and say hello, she will only be happy and not think too much about it."
Tang Xuezhen felt confident after hearing what she said so eloquently, "I didn't expect you to be able to advise me as a military advisor at such a young age! I'll go to my grandmother's place right now..."
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave, but happened to bump into Tang Xueru who was chasing after him.
Tang Xuezhen didn't want to talk to her, and Tibu was about to leave. Unexpectedly, Tang Xueru grabbed his clothes with quick eyes and hands, "Wait a minute, I haven't finished saying anything yet."
Tang Xuexuan looked at her curiously, "What else do you have to say? We'll talk about it later. I'm in a hurry to go to my grandmother's place right now. If I go back and delay it for a while, my grandmother should take a rest."
Tang Xueru refused to let go no matter what, "If you rest, you can go back tomorrow."
"How can that be done? With this matter in my mind, can I still sleep at night?" Tang Xuexuan struggled a few times and couldn't get rid of her, so he could only ask helplessly, "Hurry up."
Tell me, what is going on?"
Tang Xueru said with a smile, "I promised Miss Zhang during the day that I would give her some Dahongpao. Can you help me find a way to save a few taels?"
Every catty and tael of tea produced by the Tang family must be recorded in the account book, and the amount of money coming in and going out every day is recorded. Dahongpao is a relatively expensive variety that can be sold at a high price, and the family generally does not drink it.
Bai Rongxuan was previously curious about how she would get the Dahongpao after she said such big things in front of Zhang Yuniang, but she didn't expect that she would be waiting for Tang Xuexuan here.
She smiled and said nothing, watching the brothers and sisters playing tricks.
Tang Xuexuan sighed, "Is that all? I understand. I'll find a way to give you two taels later. Don't give away such a precious variety to others in the future. It rains heavily this year and Dahongpao's yield is low."
, the goods at home are not enough to sell. You have to keep this matter a secret from me, and don’t turn around and reveal it carelessly. If dad finds out, it will be the end of the game for both of us."
Tang Xueru curled her lips and said, "I don't know how. I have a tight mouth. Just take care of yourself."
Tang Xuexuan chuckled, "Can you let go now?"
Tang Xueru still didn't let go, "I'll go with you. To be honest, I'm more curious than you about what your future sister-in-law will be like. I'll be your companion so that you don't go to your grandmother's place and don't know how to speak."
Tang Xuexuan was right. With a lively person like her by his side, he didn't have to feel shy when asking his grandmother. He immediately agreed, waved to Bai Rongxuan, and hurried towards Old Man Tang with Tang Xueru on his tail.
Go to the person's room.
