Chapter 104

Since Enron was elected, there have been more and more people in the Lin family. Although there are many servant girls in the family, in the future, when her daughter gets married, she will take most of them with her. Lin's mother makes the decision and buys two little boys and a woman who does chores from outside.

The two new boys are called Defu and Degui. They always follow old Liu to do some chores. Today, old Liu Tou is taking them to trim several osmanthus trees at the gate. Hearing the sound of the horse's hooves, I turned around and saw that my uncle was riding a horse, followed by his little fellow.

Old Liu head quickly assigned Defu to go in and pass the news. He went forward and took the reins. "Uncle is coming, please come inside."

Now it's early July. Although it's not as sultry as June, it's still hot and dry. Shen Ze went home from Hou Fu and changed his clothes. Here, his sweat soaked his back.

Hearing the news, Lin's mother had already arrived at the front hall. Seeing her son-in-law coming, she said with a smile, "on such a hot day, if there's anything for people to send, it's also worth when you come to see it in person." Then he said to the grass standing on one side, "there is a new dress I just made for angel in my room. Go and get it and change it for my uncle."

Shen Ze said with a smile, "Auntie doesn't have to be so polite. She'll do it after a while." Lin's mother told her little servant girl to take sour plum soup and said, "it's just a suit, but it's not the same at home. How hard it is to sweat and stick to the body like this? Why is this meeting coming? I can still have lunch here when I come here at noon. "

Shen Ze said, "I went to Jinmen for some business and just came back at noon. It happened that I brought some seafood back from there. It's hot and I dare not make it live. It's all dry goods. It's very good to eat by myself or give it away. "

Lin Mu had just seen the baskets and said with a smile, "since I have brought them, I'll take them. Next time, I won't spend money like this. How much can we eat at home? It's time to send some to the Marquis and your master. "

Shen Ze replied, "don't worry, auntie. I've already sent them." Lin's mother said with a smile, "I know you're a sensible person. I'm just asking in vain." Pointing to the sour plum soup just brought up by the little servant girl, he said, "try this sour plum soup. It's made by Youjie herself. You just came back from the outside. I dare not give you ice. It's warm. It's good for your health. "

After running for most of the day, Shen Ze was really thirsty. When he took a sip from a teacup, the sour plum soup was not as sweet as he thought, but had a special refreshing smell. It was quite pleasant to drink, and Shen Ze drank it all at once.

Lin's mother-in-law is more satisfied with her son-in-law. With Shen Ze's insincere flattery, they are quite opportunistic.

At this time, Fang Cao came over with a bundle of clothes and said with a smile, "when I went to pick up the clothes, I happened to meet the young lady reading in the garden. After listening to the words of the young lady, I said that the young master's clothes might be shorter. He took out his clothes and said that they had just been made for my uncle recently, and that they were just changed for my uncle. "

Hearing this, Lin's mother said with a smile, "since she has made it for you, go and change it. I'll ask them to wash the clothes you've changed. You can eat before you go, and then you'll be dry. " Finish saying, then shout expensive to come in, let him lead Shen Ze to Enron's room to change clothes.

On the day of engagement, Shen Ze already had two clothes made by herself. I don't know whether it's her exquisite craftsmanship or her mentality. Shen Ze only thinks that the clothes she made by herself are comfortable and fit, and Shen Ze is not willing to wear them. Today, it's a sky blue cocoon silk gown, with fan cover and purse of suitable color. It's embroidered with a few clumps of ink bamboo. The color is light and elegant. Shen Ze feels that it's especially hot pressed before he gets on.

As soon as the dirty clothes were changed, Degui took them out. "Sister Fangcao just told her to take them out and wash them."

Shen Ze went back to the front hall after changing clothes. Lin's mother saw that her son-in-law was even more tall and straight after changing new clothes. She couldn't help laughing and saying, "it's not that I'm partial to my daughter. You're really good at needlework." Shen Ze said with a smile, "it's a craft that the Empress Dowager has praised. Isn't it extraordinary? In other words, my nephew is just picking up the stool. " Make mother Lin laugh.

After laughing for a while, Lin's mother pointed to the two pots of peonies in the hall and said, "you sent these two pots of white peonies. What's your sister's love like. She always likes to make some flowers and plants, such as the camellia brought back by Princess Anle from the south. She has planted some of them. She has also divided more than ten pots of chrysanthemums into one hundred pots last year, and only a few pots have withered. Now the rest also have small flower buds. I think it will bloom in two months. " Then he went on to say, "well, you haven't seen youjieer's flower house. Now there are several pots of flowers in full bloom. Let's go. I'll take you to have a look."

My mother-in-law, is this a chance for me? Of course, Shen Ze would not refuse, so he went to the backyard behind Lin Mu with a smile.

There is also a corner door on the edge of the back room in the last row of the house. There is a large area of lush bamboo beside the corner door. Leisurely, people cut down some bamboo, built a small wooden house against the wall, and moved some shade loving orchids and other flowers to the house. Even in the hot summer, the bamboo forest is also humid, so 20 or 30 pots of all kinds of orchids are lush. Some pots are still in full bloom today.

Lin's mother pointed to a glass house near the south wall and said, "it's hard to raise these flowers in winter alone. She went out of her private house to exchange some large pieces of glass to build a flower house. A few pieces of glass cost more than 20 Liang. I often say that after you get married, you can't spend like this, or how much money will your son-in-law have to earn to support you. "

Shen Ze said with a smile, "don't worry, auntie. Although my nephew is not rich, he can still earn this silver." They watched Zihua for a while and joked for a while.

Those pots of orchid grass, except for the one I saw last year, are just ordinary products. They are just spiritual. It was the hundred and ten pots of rare chrysanthemums that made Shen Ze feel very excited. There is another kind of flower with various colors and fresh and refined patterns, which makes people happy. Shen Ze can't help asking, "what kind of flower is this? My nephew has never seen it. "

Lin's mother once heard that this kind of flower was called camellia, but she pretended that she didn't know it. "It's all raised by you sister. I'm not very clear. Just ask her." Then he said to the little servant girl standing on one side, "go and invite the young lady over."
