Chapter 115 Reciprocal

The three were silent for a moment, and Mrs. Fan said with a smile and said, "This matter of inviting the mother has to bother the little sister. I think so. First, add a few maids, especially a few girls, and buy them back and give them to Wisteria**. Why don't you wait for Sister Zhang to come back? It's not easy to bias her, the furniture in the house or something. Sister Sun and I will look at it first. What do you think?" Li Xiaoyao listened to what she said in an orderly manner and responded with a smile. Naturally, Aunt Sun had nothing to do with it, and she nodded quickly and agreed.

The next day, Li Xiaoyao and Su Zicheng took a half-day off and made a special trip to entertain Shuilian at home. Shuilian got out of the car in the second door. Li Xiaoyao, Mrs. Fan and Aunt Sun greeted them enthusiastically. Shuilian curiously looked at Mrs. Fan and Aunt Sun, who were full of filial piety. Mrs. Mrs. Fan looked at Shuilian generously and Mrs. Sun looked at Mrs. Sun. He only stared at Mrs. Fan, hurriedly glanced at Shuilian, lowered his head slightly, and dared not look more.

Li Xiaoyao introduced the three to each other and let Shuilian into the flower hall with Aunt Fan. Begonia and Qingcheng served tea. Shuilian looked around and said with a smile, "I have wanted to come here for a long time. The second brother said that you had just arrived in Kaiping Mansion and were busy packing, so I didn't come to disturb you."

"The seventh lady is polite. We came to Kaiping Mansion thanks to the second master's care, otherwise we don't know what to do." Mrs. Fan said politely, and Li Xiaoyao continued with a smile, "Sister Fan and Sister Sun are both filial, so they have to wait until they serve and then come to visit the seventh lady."

Shuilian said with a smile, "The fifth master is polite. In addition to serving, I will hold a special banquet for the two sisters to talk. In winter, it is just to enjoy the snow and see the plums. When next spring comes, it will be lively. From Tomb-sweeping Day, the outing and flowers will be available almost every month. The two sisters must take a good look at us. We can only open the bustle of Pingfu.

Li Xiaoyao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The water lotus was really exquisite and transparent. The four people talked and laughed. Begonia came up with a snack. Shuilian ate a piece of dessert and turned her head to the begonia in surprise and asked, "This hibiscus cake is the same as the taste of our house!" Haitang squeezed her lips and bent her knees and replied, "Go back to the seventh lady, I used to be a maidservant in Jingjiang Marquis's mansion."

"Both of them, my maids were sent by Second Master Shui." Li Xiaoyao took over and explained that Shuilian looked at Begonia and Qingcheng in surprise, turned her head and looked at Li Xiaoyao with a smile and said, "I almost forgot the business. Sister Tong asked me to thank the fifth master for her for her life." Shuilian said that she was about to stand up. Li Xiaoyao hurriedly grabbed her and pressed her to sit down slightly: "I just got your heart. You don't have to thank me. She is also a miserable person." Shuilian nodded anxiously and her eyes turned red: "I said that the fifth master understands the bitterness of Sister Tong. Forget it, not to mention this, Sister Tong is now living in Xuefeng Mountain. Xuefeng Mountain has no other benefits, that is, the wild mountain chrysanthemums at this time are all over the mountains, and they can't be more beautiful. I want to invite the fifth master and two sisters to our courtyard for one night. Don't There are still two hot springs in the courtyard, which are the most nourishing. Don't refuse!"

Li Xiaoyao looked hesitantly at Mrs. Fan and Aunt Sun. Shuilian was extremely smart and explained with a smile, "Sister Tong and my son live in Xuefeng Mountain. Sister Tong's mother and son. Sister Tong also knows that it's the same. Now she is also plain numb. If she hadn't been with the Fifth Master. , the two sisters are the same, and I dare not open this mouth. Li Xiaoyao thought for a moment, turned to look at Mrs. Fan and said with a smile, "It's okay to go and break up. What did my sister say?"

"Hmm." Mrs. Fan agreed with a smile. Li Xiaoyao turned her head and looked at Mrs. Sun. Mrs. Sun hurriedly nodded. Shuilian exhaled gently and made an appointment with the three to send someone to pick them up the day after tomorrow morning. The four people said half an hour later. Shuilian got up and left. Li Xiaoyao and Mrs. Fan did not stay much. The three sent Shuilian together. I got into the car in the second door. Li Xiaoyao watched Shuilian's car go far away, asked for a car, and went all the way to Liang Wang's mansion.

Li Xiaoyao lied and said that he would go to Xuefeng Mountain to see the wild mountain chrysanthemum. Su Zicheng stared at her for a moment and nodded expressionlessly and agreed.

Early the next morning, Li Xiaoyao rarely got up early. Wisteria and Danyue shook a box of dresses on the kang. Li Xiaoyao was stunned. When did she get so many skirts? Begonia came over with a square pear wooden box and pulled it layer by layer. Li Xiaoyao turned his head and looked at all kinds of hairpins in the box, reached out and picked up a red butterfly double-stranded hairpin. He squinted at the window. Begonia said with a simple smile, "Master, wear this hairpin today, wearing that silver-patterned butterfly dress, the former king I just sent someone a big red and fishy felt satin cloak, which must look good to wear!"

Li Xiaoyao exhaled, handed the hairpin to Haitang, turned to look at the wisteria and asked, "Is it all sent by the prince?"

"Well, once in August, Master Nan carried a large box and sent it, and this box was also sent together that time. After the Double Ninth Festival, another box was sent. They were all seasonal autumn and winter clothes, which seemed to be made according to the four seasons of clothes in the house." Wisteria explained carefully that Li Xiaoyao put her chin on the pillow in her arms and sighed gently. She really liked these exquisite and beautiful dress jewelry!

Wisteria and Danyue picked up their clothes neatly and showed them to Li Xiaoyao one by one and wrapped them in their bags. They were going to stay in Shui's courtyard for one night. Wisteria and Danyue packed up two big boxes last night. In addition, today's clothes were just like moving. Li Xiaoyao didn't say much, just let Zi Teng Zhangluo, looking at the time, it was almost time. Lazily got up and sat in front of the dressing table. Qingcheng lightly gave her a new lily bun and carefully inserted the red butterfly hairpin. Li Xiaoyao changed her clothes and came out from a big red and fishy felt cloak. The light moon and begonias followed with clouds and cherries all the way. Two doors out.

In the second door, the mother-in-law and the vehicle that went out with the Shui family have arrived. Li Xiaoyi looked at the Yueting standing next to Mrs. Fan. Mrs. Fan hurried forward a few steps, pulled Li Xiaoyao, and said in a low voice, "Yueting also wants to play with her. She is confined at home and has no place to move around. I think there is no one of her. , do you see?

Li Xiaoyao sighed secretly, looked at Mrs. Fan, opened her mouth to speak, thought about it and swallowed it back. Forget it, here and now is not the time to talk. Come back and talk about it. She is not helping Yueting, but harming her! Madam Fan breathed a relaxed breath, and a smile appeared on her face. She turned around and motioned Yuyan to get on the moon pavilion to get on the car. Yueting got on the car, reached out and raised the curtain, and stared provocatively at Li Xiaoyao. Li Xiaoyao followed her eyes and there was no expression.

The car slowly walked out of the second door, went out of the city gate, and went all the way to Xuefeng Mountain.

At the gate of Liang Wangfu, Shuiyan stepped out of the car and turned his head to look at the close-fitting young man picking clouds and accompanying the moon carefully holding the tall and vigorous orchid leaves. Two flower stems have been born in the middle of the orchids, each with more than a dozen calyx buds waiting to release. Shuiyan stepped back and looked at the two pots with satisfaction and the little man. , turned around and entered the royal palace of Liang.

Shuiyan went all the way into the study, entered the hanging flower door, and went straight to the first room in the east room. He pushed it, but did not push it away. Beiqing hurriedly greeted him and said with a smile, "Fifth Master went to Xuefeng Mountain to enjoy chrysanthemums today. He will come back the day after tomorrow." Shuiyan looked disappointed, turned his head and looked at the orchid in the hands of the two little ones, knocked on his forehead with the folding fan in his hand, and motioned to pick up the clouds and accompany the moon to follow him into the main room. Beiqing reported that he personally raised the curtain to let Shuiyan enter the house, and waited for the clouds to follow closely with the basin of tens of millions of orchids.

Su Zicheng was sitting on the desk and writing. Knowing that Shuiyan came in, he ordered without raising his head, "Sit down." Shuiyan saw the salute, turned around to find a suitable place to put orchids, turned around a few times, took a fancy to Su Zicheng's huge bookcase, casually handed over the folding fan to Nanning, who was standing next to him, and automatically moved the pen holder and motioned the servant to put two pots of orchids in the corner of the bookcase.

Su Zicheng looked up and looked at the two pots of orchids for a while, lowered his head and finished writing, put down his pen, stood up, looked around the orchids with his back, and praised with a smile, "The more and better the orchids in your house are growing. It is rare that this pot of Wu Lan can be cultivated like this!"

"There are only five pots in total. One pot was given to the uncle's house, one pot was given to the uncle's house, and my father kept a pot, and these two pots." Shuiyan appreciated the two pots of Wu Lan, shook the folding fan and said with a smile. Su Zicheng turned his head to look at Shuiyan, pointed to the two pots of Wu Lan and said with a smile, "I want one pot is enough. You can take that pot back and keep it for yourself."

"That pot is for Xiao Wu. Beiqing said that she would come back the day after tomorrow and send it to you for two days first." Shuiyan explained that Su Zicheng turned his head and looked at Shuiyan in surprise. Shuiyan closed the folding fan, looked at Su Zicheng and said with a smile, "Xiao Wu has helped me a lot and helped our Shui family. A pot of orchids is just a sign of intention. If I send it away, I'm afraid she will be tacky."

Su Zicheng turned his head and looked at the orchid. He was stunned for a while. He reached out and gently touched the dark green tall orchid leaf. With a smile on the corners of his mouth, he turned his head and looked at Shuiyan and said, "At this time, the cold orchid on the mountain is in full bloom. I haven't been to Xuefeng Mountain to see the cold orchid for many years. The cold orchid is better than this Wu Lan's style."

Shuiyan blinked his eyes and hurriedly answered with a smile, "I haven't gone to Xuefeng Mountain to see Hanlan for many years. My aunt loves Hanlan the most." Shuiyan looked at Su Zicheng, whose face was gloomy in an instant, and couldn't wait to bite off his tongue. What did he do with his aunt? Shuiyan's brain turned quickly and followed what he said just now. Then he said, "Today's weather is just right. It's a good time to see Hanlan. Let's go to Xuefeng Mountain to see the orchids. Xuefeng Mountain is close, and it only takes half a day to go back and forth."
