Chapter 19：

After Ruan Xi decided to give Young Master Wen a small gift, he began to think about what to give.

Sachet...Jade Pei...Ropa...

Ruan Xi has three choices. She prefers jade pendants in her heart. Young Master Wen is as beautiful as jade, and giving jade pendants is the first choice, but the quality of jade pendants in her hand is not good.

Can only choose between sachet and Ropa.

In the memory of the original owner, the Master once said that Lopado was used to express love, a metaphor for the endless lingering meaning of the Tao, and that Lopa should not be given to men at will.

Ruan Xi thought of the mutton jade hairpin given by Master Wen, and finally chose the sachet.

Ruan Xi decided to make this sachet by himself to show his sincerity, which takes a while.

Ruan Xi first wrote a reply to Master Wen, mentioning the small gift at the end of the letter, and sent it to the college to give to his elder brother Ruan Yuwen for him to pass it on to Master Wen.

Soon it was midday. After Ruan Xi had a hearty lunch, he talked to Mama Lin about managing the sewing room, and Mama Lin gave her a few words in a gentle manner.

"Miss Si, the management of the sewing room seems simple, there is nothing to learn, and it is easy to be manipulated. In fact, there are many doorways in it that are connected to the housekeeper."

"I will explain to you in detail when that happens."

"I know that when many noble ladies are studying housekeeping, the lady in charge will give some advice in advance and arrange for someone to teach them step by step. Mrs. Ruan Xu is not taking the usual path."

Before lunch, Ms. Lin had known her situation with the two maids of the Fourth Miss.

It is said that the third daughter of Bofu will get married next year, and she has not yet started to learn about housekeeping.

Mother Lin had no hope of this sincere Madam, and decided to teach Miss Ruan Si well, hoping that next month the old lady's first four girls would be reborn and be favored by the old lady.

Ruan Xi almost couldn't hold back a laugh when he heard Lin's mother implicitly said that his aunt Zhang was taking an unusual path.

It seemed that Zhang's auntie Zhang's face was not enough, and Lin's mother was stripped of it.

Ruan Xi smiled gratefully: "Mom Lao has bothered."

It was only twenty years before Ruan Xi crossed. I have read a few novels about traveling through ancient times on weekdays, and even accidentally crossed into a book. It is only a general understanding of the doorways of the ancient masters.

Before going to the sewing room, Ruan Xi listened carefully to Ms. Lin's words about the doorway of the sewing room. While shocked, he secretly thanked Ms. Lin for her selfless teaching.

Perhaps the aunt Zhang did not expect to learn so much from just a seemingly useless but prone to trouble sewing room.

"...So Miss Fourth shouldn't think that taking over the kitchen or taking charge of purchasing or managing the shop is the way to learn to be a master."

"Food, clothing, housing, and transportation are all knowledgeable. All you need to know is to be able to adapt and accumulate experience."

"Of course, these are only required to understand, so that you will not be deceived by others in your heart. In short, a good master does not need you to be proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and calligraphy, and does not need your talent, but Will take the overall situation, be proficient in the world, be accommodating, be good at the way of imperialism, and know how to use it."

"None of these can be learned at once. I will teach you one by one in the future. It's just that I'm not as good as taking care of it myself."

Mother Lin's careful and careful instruction, Miss Ruan Si is only a concubine of the Bofu, she seems to be too mediocre except for her looks, but the eldest son of Wenshang Shujia is the old lady's favorite grandson, Lian Anguo The princes of the government are incomparable.

This marriage must go down, and Mrs. Wen invited Wen Shangshu and his wife to give a severe training overnight.

In the end, Mr. Wen came forward and begged, and Mrs. Wen compromised.

If Miss Ruan Si can't support the wall with mud, this marriage is likely to affect Young Master Wen's position in the family.

Fortunately, Miss Ruan Si is smart and calm, she is a gem that can be carved.

Mother Lin was very pleased.

Ruan Xi didn't know what Lin's mother was thinking, and nodded seriously.

"Thank you Mama Lin for the point, I understand."

With a bottoming in my heart, when Mother Gao came to take her to the sewing room, Ruan Xi's performance surprised the big and small staff in the sewing room.

Ruan Xi hit the nail on the head every time she asked, and she saw the problem in the account book, but she didn't point it out directly, she said in a casual tone and then smiled and skipped it.

There is no fish when the water is clear.

Ruan Xi just showed her strength, don't let people think that she's so foolish, and she didn't mean to get people out of her way.

The staff in the sewing room felt cold on their backs, sweating straight, and their expressions became more respectful.

Miss Fourth is not easy.

No wonder Young Master Wen only came to visit Miss Si once and fell in love.

Mother Gao saw that the staff in the sewing room treated the fourth lady respectfully, she couldn't help frowning and glared at them.

What about the good news?

These few stewards could not have seen that Miss Fourth had become a climate, and the raising mother with the Wen family around him shrank.

What a bunch of useless waste!

Gao's mother was secretly annoyed.

...

At Qingshan Academy, Master Wen received the letter from Ruan Yuwen.

Young Master Wen's friend, Li Gelao's grandson, gave birth to a gorgeous-looking Li Jingcheng. When he saw it, he raised his eyes and joked with a smile: "Zirun, your fiancee's letter?"

Several officials and eunuchs around who were about to leave all stood up and listened to gossip.

In the academy, no one knows that Young Master Wen, who has rejected many famous ladies and gentlemen, has set up a marriage with a huge difference in status between the two sides.

Young Master Wen accepted the letter without hurries, smiled and nodded: "Yeah."

Looking at his expression, Li Jingcheng was even more curious. I heard that Zirun's fiancé was just a small concubine in the Bo's House sincerely. I really don't know what Zirun liked about her. Is she beautiful?

It is rumored that the fourth lady of the sincere mansion has a stunning appearance.

It seems that in addition to beauty, this Miss Ruan Si has no talents.

Li Jingcheng was puzzled and couldn't understand his friend's choice.

"Zi Run, when will you bring your fiancée out to get together? Let's meet each other?" Li Jingcheng put on Young Master Wen's shoulder and asked with a smile.

Young Master Wen smiled: "You can see my grandmother on her birthday."

Li Jingcheng's eyes widened in shock, and he stared at Young Master Wen in disbelief: "Zi Run, you...you are not going to invite Miss Ruan Si to the birthday banquet of Mrs. Wen, in case Miss Ruan Si is in Old Man Wen. People show timidity or unsatisfactory performance at the birthday party..."

You lose face.

Li Jingcheng didn't say the latter sentence very witty.

It is not that he underestimated Miss Ruan Si, but that his family status affects a person's vision and tolerance to a certain extent.

Young Master Wen nodded, as if thinking of something, his brows were gentle: "Jing Cheng, Siniang is very special and interesting."

Si Niang...

Especially...interesting...

Li Jingcheng opened his mouth, and he was stunned. It was over. Zi Run was fascinated by his fiancee.

Miss Ruan Si must be a confidant.

Several other eavesdropping officials were shocked: "..."

This... Is this the gentleman and gentleman they know but keeps a certain distance from the woman?

Now they were more curious about the beautiful Miss Ruan Si, and secretly decided that they must go to the birthday banquet of Mrs. Wen with their elders.

The news that Miss Ruan Si would attend the birthday banquet of Mrs. Wen spread out like this, and it spread quickly to everyone.

After lunch, Master Wen took advantage of the lunch break and took Zhang Qing to read a letter in the pavilion at the bamboo forest of the college.

"Thanks for the gift?"

The corner of Young Master Wen's mouth was smiling, and his well-knotted fingers lightly stroked the word gift on the letter paper, a touch of interest appeared in his eyes.

The gift from the little girl...what would it be?

Young Master Wen is rarely interested.

Zhang Qing on the side heard the son's whisper in his ears, and he refreshed.

Miss Ruan Si wants to give the son a gift?

That's great news.

Zhang Qing is very happy.

At this time, there was a sound from far and near, and it seemed that someone was coming. Mr. Wen, who did not want to be disturbed, put the letter away and left the small pavilion in the bamboo forest.

Zhang Qing quickly followed up.

As soon as Master Wen left, Ruan Yuwen and a few classmates came over. Seeing that the pavilion was empty, a familiar tall and tall back figure gradually faded away not far away.

A step late, Ruan Yuwen's eyes flashed disappointment, but when he thought of Simei, he instantly regained his spirit.

As long as the fourth sister is still Master Wen's fiancée, he will be able to gain the guidance of a great scholar in the light of the Wen family.

This year's Qiuwei, he must be promoted.

Ruan Yuwen made a fist.

Ruan Xi didn't know what Young Master Wen said at random. She once again became a man of the capital's wealthy class. I don't know how many ladies are going to wait for her to make a fool of her at the birthday banquet of Mrs. Wen and watch her jokes.

Qi Yuean of the Huaiyang Hou’s Mansion was sitting on the grass in the garden with a piece of grass in his mouth. He looked extremely boring. Suddenly, he heard the little servant talk about Miss Ruan Si, his heart beat for a long time, and he took the grass Spit it out.

"You said Miss Ruan Si will attend Mrs. Wen's birthday party?"

"Yes, Second Young Master."

Qi Yuean took a piece of grass again as if nothing had happened, no one knew what he was thinking.

...

Ruan Xi stayed in the sewing room for more than an hour and then returned to Chengxinyuan to tell Mother Lin about the process and details of taking over the sewing room.

Mama Lin nodded secretly, and pointed out what Ruan Xi had done well.

This afternoon, Ruan Xi gained a lot.

She thanked Master Wen again in her heart for sending Mother Lin over.

After talking about the business, Ruan Xi was a little embarrassed and asked, "Mother Lin, if I want to give someone a sachet, which pattern is better to embroider?"

There is very little about this in the original owner's memory. Don't look at the original owner's female red embroidery. They are all flowers, so you can't just embroider a Clivia on the sachet.

This is the first time Ruan Xi has given a present to her fiance. Of course, she has to do her best to show her sincerity.

Mother Lin raised her eyebrows and glanced at Miss Fourth who seemed to be quite troubled. She was secretly funny. The person who wanted the sachet to be given should be Son Wen.

"It's good to embroider the fish lotus pattern on the sachet." Mother Lin suggested with a smile, with a hint of mystery in her smile.

"Is it a fish playing with lotus?"

Ruan Xi's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and the fish lotus picture was particularly artistic when he heard it, and he could wear it as a gift to Master Wen.

"Yes, I have several sachets of spice recipes here, all of which have different effects. I will write them down later. You can take them to see which one you choose." Mother Lin continued to smile, looking forward to Miss Ruan Si's surprise.

Ruan Xi nodded to express her gratitude. After a quarter of an hour, she got several recipes for spices, chose the refreshing recipes, and then asked Suyu to collect medicinal materials and spices.

On the other hand, he took out the needle and thread and embroidered the veil in the house. The memory and feel of the original owner were still there. Ruan Xi was originally a handy family, and quickly picked up this embroidery art from unfamiliar to proficient.

The fish and lotus drawing is more complicated and it takes some time to embroider.

Ruan Xi had already prepared his heart, so he could only apologize to Master Wen and wait a little longer.

As night fell, Ruan Xi received a reply from Master Wen.

After Suyu and Suzhu left the young masters, they retired wisely.

In the quiet room, the burning candlelight reflected Ruan Xi's delicate and soft face.

This time, it is rare for Master Wen to talk about the daily routine of the academy in the letter, and also mentioned his friend, Li Jingcheng, the grandson of Li Ge.

Ruan Xi was surprised, and then he thought about it, and writing daily in the letter can enhance mutual understanding.

She always wants to marry Young Master Wen and be a husband and wife, who is willing to respect each other as a guest.

Now that Young Master Wen opened this hole, Ruan Xi smiled slightly. It's not bad to know each other just like that.

It's just that this Li Jingcheng is a bit familiar, Ruan Xi thought of who he was in a moment, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

In the book, Li Jingcheng, male and female, has a gorgeous face and is the subject of Wen Tingzhou's scandal.

Ruan Xi retracted his mind and continued to look down at the end of the letter.

[Si Niang, I heard that the gift party made by the giver is the best and most sincere gift. 】

Ruan Xi chuckled when he saw this sentence.

Young Master Wen is really interesting. If you want a gift made by her, he just said it, but he wanted to be so tactful. Fupin Chinese
