Qiaoyu

Chapter 29 Hundred Days of Qiaoyu

On October 14, Qiaoyu is a hundred days.

Hui Niang got up very early today. Just after the day, she had been urging the cook to make alkali, boil water, and steam birthday peaches. After more than half an hour, when the first drawer of Shoutao sat in the steamer, he happily returned to the bedroom. Mu Sheng has woken up, wearing a middle dress, sitting next to the small bed, looking at Qiaoyu in his sleep, and his face is full of happiness and love. Before going to bed last night, Hui Niang had already told Mu Sheng the list of her thoughts. Mu Sheng also felt that it was safer to send Qiaoyu's hundred-year-old longevity peach to the Yanwang Mansion. Hui Niang got up early in the morning, urged the kitchen to steam out a drawer first, choose the best twenty, and send them to the royal palace early.

When Mu Sheng took Shoutao out, Hui Niang returned to the kitchen and watched the second drawer of Shoutao come out. In addition to Xue Zhu staying in the room to take care of Qiaoyu, the other three maids also helped in the kitchen. Soon, the last thirty longevity peaches have also been put on the steamer. Hui Niang looked at more than 50 longevity peaches on the chopping board with satisfaction and thought to herself, except for the 20 peaches for her sister-in-law and the old immortals, how long will the rest be eaten?

When she was worried, her sister-in-law Huang walked into the kitchen happily. Thank you for your hard work, Miss! Steamed all the peaches so early in the morning!"

"My sister-in-law is here!" Hui Niang greeted her with a smile, "Sister-in-law, let's go back to the house and talk." With that, he reached out and took Huang's hand and walked out of the kitchen. Huang came out with a smile.

Back to the room, Xue Zhu, who was sitting by the bed and was embroidering, saw everyone coming back. He smiled and put the work in his hand back into the needle and thread. He stood up with the bamboo shoot and whispered, "The little girl has been asleep and hasn't woken up yet."

"Oh! I know!" Hui Niang also answered in a low voice. He went to the outside with the Huang family, and the guests sat on the teacher's chair and chatted.

"Sister-in-law, I roughly calculated that I can't eat the rest except for the birthday peach as a gift." Hui Niang said with some trouble.

Huang replied confidently, "Is it convenient for you to tell me who to send it to?"

Hui Niang thought for a moment and began to count them one by one. "There are not many friends in the governor's court in Beiping, and twenty are enough. I'll give you ten for your sister-in-law and get a perfect mouthpiece. Huang hurriedly smiled and thanked him. Send ten old immortals to the Hidden City Hall.

Huang Shi saw that Hui Niang listened and counted with her fingers. This is a total of forty, and the remaining fifty-nine. Hui Niang nodded. There are ten left in the lady's house. I don't know if I want to give some to my mother-in-law, Liu Niang?" Huang reminded me.

Hui Niang said with a smile, "Thanks to my sister-in-law's help, I would have really left Liu Niang behind!" It's time to fight! It's time to fight!" Huang hurriedly said, "It's no wonder, Miss. You work so hard every day. You have to take care of the little lady and take care of the governor. Some omissions are also inevitable.

"Sister-in-law, is it safer for you to give Liu Niang?"

"Ten! It's perfect!"

"Good! Just listen to your sister-in-law!"

Huang pretended to be mysterious and continued, "I mentioned a person, and the remaining thirty-nine birthday peaches must be given to him!"

"Oh!" Hui Niang thought to herself, which one can stand so much? After all, only 20 were sent to the royal palace.

Huang Shi suddenly got up from his chair, walked to Hui Niang, got close to her ear, and whispered excitedly, "Miss, the person I mentioned is the young master Zhiyuan, your brother!"

When Hui Niang heard the word Zhiyuan, she stood up from the chair excitedly, and her head almost hit Huang's head. Both of them were shocked, but because Qiaoyu was still sleeping, they covered their mouths and didn't dare to shout. Together, he turned his head to look at Qiaoyu, who was still sleeping, and confirmed that the child had not been woken up. Then he turned around and looked at each other and smiled.

Hui Niang asked happily, "Sister-in-law, is Zhiyuan coming to Peiping?"

"Yes! Yes!" Huang nodded vigorously and answered in a low voice. For more than a year, the master was very satisfied with the young master's performance in the salt industry. I don't ask about the industry anymore. This time, the young master will go through all the penets in the line after taking full control of the salt line. The young master set out from Zhenjiang at the beginning of the month and along the waterway, and has already reached the Tianhe sub-de. It's time to arrive in Peiping in the next few days. That's why I said that the rest of Shoutao should be given to him. After all, it's my mother's uncle!"

Hui Niang's joy from the bottom of her heart. I left home last March, and now it has been a year and a half. I don't know what Zhiyuan has become? It must be more mature and stable. I have too much to say to him. Thinking about it, I couldn't help laughing.

Huang Shi said with a smile, "Miss, don't worry, Shoucai has been explained. As soon as the young master arrived, he immediately sent the salt clerk to the house to tell me. I'll come to inform you right away when I get the letter.

Hui Niang's mind is full of Zhiyuan coming and can meet him. Hearing what Huang said, she only said politely, "Then there will be a sister-in-law!"

Hui Niang and Huang Shi had an intimate breakfast together. Hui Niang took the ten birthday peaches wrapped in big red paper from Xue Zhu's hand, solemnly handed them to the Huang family, and said affectionately, "Sister-in-law, this is Qiaoyu Baitian's longevity peach. I'll give you a good mouth color!"

Huang took it with both hands with a smile and replied affectionately, "Miss, thank you! I wish you a long life and good health!"

Huang took Shoutao and sent it back to her home first, and then turned it back to accompany Hui Niang and Qiao Yu to send Shoutao to the old fairy and Liu Niang. When she was in the car, Qiaoyu woke up and cried for milk. Hui Niang was so pitiful that she fed Qiaoyu.

Unfortunately, the old fairy of the Hidden City Hall went to Shandong to buy herbs and hasn't come back yet. Hui Niang had to give the Shoutao to the little doctor in the store and told the doctor. The old fairy must inform her when she comes back, and she will come to visit.

A carriage has been parked in front of Liu Niang's house. Their carriage has just stopped, and a servant hurried out of the house with Liu Niang. Huang recognized Liu Niang. Through the curtain, Huang shouted, "Liu Niang!" When Liu Niang heard the call, she stopped and looked around. Huang quickly jumped down from the carriage and asked with concern, "Is there anything urgent for Liu Niang? Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"

Liu Niang also recognized Huang and replied with a smile, "Hey! Isn't this the shopkeeper's grandma! Which gust of wind blew you to me? The little boy beside him said, "I'm rushing to give birth to his wife!"

Hui Niang handed Qiaoyu to the snow bamboo in the car and got out of the car. After saluteing Liu Niang first, she said with a smile, "Liu Niang, today is Yuer's 100 days. My sister-in-law accompanied me and my child to send you a hundred days of longevity peach. Unfortunately, you have to rush to help with the birth now. After saying that, he took the wrapped Shoutao handed over by Yueying and handed it respectfully, "This is Qiaoyu Baitian Shoutao. I'll give you a good mouthpiece!"

Liu Niang was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the official's wife could give herself this. He was stunned for a moment, quickly took it with his hands with a smile, and thanked him repeatedly. I wish your child a long life and a long life! Madam, you are so kind! The child is still thinking about sending me a birthday peach for a hundred days. After saying that, he held Shoutao and squatted.

Hui Niang looked at the waiter standing aside and waiting anxiously, and said to Liu Niang with a smile, "Liu Niang, go quickly!" Don't let people wait too long. Let's talk when you have free time.

Liu Niang smiled and saluted again, and then handed over Shoutao to the family who came out of the door, and followed the people quickly.

Yue Ying helped Hui Niang get into the carriage and Huang Shi, and finally went up. Sitting in the car, Hui Niang hugged Qiaoyu, and the child was still asleep. The carriage thothed through the downtown and took everyone back to the alley.
