Chapter 180

The afternoon sun shines in the fish pond by the rockery, a few koi carp leisurely shuttles under the spring and stones, and autumn cicadas lie on the branches and sing.

In the room, the girls were sitting around the table cooking tea and chatting. At this moment, Fei Ruyi was placing various tea sets in front of him, explaining the uses of these tea sets to Xie Xiaowan one by one.

"It is best to use Longjing tea with Longjing water. It is best to brew Tiger Hill tea with Hupaoquan, while Songluo tea is best to use Longchi water. The tea classic says: eight-quarter tea is brewed in ten water, and then the tea is also ten. Ten-quarter tea is brewed in eight-quarter water, so the tea can only be eaten at eight-quarter water. It can be seen that the importance of using water for making tea!" Fei Ruyi used a teaspoon to put the tea into the tea sieve and explained it carefully, and the action was pleasing to the eye.

Xie Xiaowan couldn't help but stick out her tongue and smiled, "It turns out that there are so many things to pay attention to when drinking tea. In the past, people put tea in pots and soaked them in boiling water and then drank them."

Fei Jixiang smiled and said, "Sister Xiaowan, the tea that has not been washed is mud tea and cannot be drunk."

Fei Xiaoyu curled her lips and said, "I think the taste is similar, why is it so troublesome to drink tea?"

Fei Jixiang joked: "So you are a common person in the fifth sister, and your third sister is a fairy!"

The maids giggled.

Fei Xiaoyu said disapprovingly: "Anyway, I can't learn from my third sister in this life. Wouldn't it be a happy and joyful thing?"

Fei Ruyi smiled and said, "So the fifth sister is the most enviable."

Fei Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Third sister is enviable. Look at her face full of spring breeze, everyone wants to bite your face."

Fei Ruyi's appearance is the most outstanding among the three sisters. His face is rosy and his beautiful eyes are even more beautiful.

It is no wonder that although Xu Jin sent a sketch portrait before, he did not actually make a clear statement, which made Fei Ruyi feel anxious. However, today Xu Jin took a risk of betting on her Geng Tie for 3,000 taels, and finally even went barely to fight back the Geng Tie with violence. His feelings for her are self-evident.

So Fei Ruyi felt at ease. At this moment, her mood was as light as the spring breeze, and her joy was beyond words. The girl who was originally stunning and beautiful was naturally more beautiful.

Fei Ruyi angrily glanced at the younger sister and said, "The fifth sister is talking nonsense again. Sister Xiaowan doesn't need to pay attention to her. I'll teach you to boil water. The water used for making tea cannot be cooked too old, and it is not good to be too tender. The second boiling water is the best..."

At this moment, footsteps came from outside the door. The beautiful women looked at each other and saw three handsome scholars walking in. They were brothers Xu Jin and Fei Maoxian.

"My husband is back!" Xie Xiaowan stood up happily.

Xu Jin smiled: "Are you cooking tea? It seems that we have come back in time!"

Fei Maozhong said: "It's really unfair that we were scolded in the study, but you are cooking tea and chatting here!"

Fei Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Who told you to be a man? By the way, did Dad punish you?"

Fei Maoxian said honestly: "My second brother and I were not punished, but Ziqian was in trouble. We must copy the "Da Ming Law" and "Book of Rites" within three days!"

"I guessed it was copying books, so my dad was so kind!" Fei Xiaoyu said with a smile.

Fei Ruyi frowned slightly. She knew how long the "Da Ming Law" was. With the addition of "The Book of Rites", how could it be copied in three days? My uncle's punishment was too severe!

Fei Jixiang joked: "Mr. Xu, where is my third sister's Geng Tie? The birth date and horoscope of my daughter's family cannot be hidden privately!"

Fei Xiaoyu giggled and said, "Xu Jin won the third sister's Geng Tie back, so it is Xu Jin's. Is there any problem with her private hiding?"

Fei Ruyi blushed suddenly and lowered her head shyly. Xu Jin hurriedly said, "Miss Ruyi's Geng Tie Master Fei is going back, cough... You guys chat slowly, copy the book in the next study, and you will lose compensation!"

After Xu Jin finished speaking, he stepped out.

...

In the living room of Fei Mansion East Courtyard, Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Fang sat across the coffee table.

Mrs. Fang said angrily: "Mrs. Fei, you said this morning that the third girl was not in good health and could not pass by your house. But the woman took the men's clothing to play with Xu Jin. The most hateful thing is that Xu Jin actually injured his dog and robbed the third girl's Geng letter. What's the matter?"

Zhao smiled and said, "Mrs. Fang calmed down. Ruyi was really uncomfortable today. Maybe she was instigated by the fifth girl in the mansion over there. The fifth girl was famous for being wild. As for Xu Jin's beating the noble young master, I was extremely angry. This boy was eccentric. He even gave him the prince to beat him. But Mrs. Fang don't worry, I will ask him for the Geng Tie."

Mrs. Fang said skeptically: "Are you sure you can come back?"

Zhao smiled and said, "I will definitely get it back, the marriage between Ruyi and Young Master Tianyou..."

"The marriage ends here!"

Before Zhao could finish speaking, a cold voice came in outside the door.

Zhao and Mrs. Fang looked out the door at the same time. The former suddenly changed his face, and Mrs. Fang also stood up subconsciously.

The one who came in from outside the door was Fei Hong's Yuanpin, who was the person who was in charge of the Fei family's back home.

Yuan is 48 years old this year, from Runan. She is also from a prominent family and has the temperament of a superior, so she is naturally not comparable to a woman from a Zhao family.

Yuan wore a long ingot of blue wide-sleeved gown, a purple-green armor covered with strands of chrysanthemums, and her hair was tied into a peony bun that middle-aged women were common. She was dignified but not lacked demeanor, accompanied by four maids, while the doorman Zhao Sier followed carefully, and winked at Zhao with helpless look on his face.

Mrs. Fang naturally knew that the person in front of her was the person in charge of the back house of Fei's mansion, so she didn't dare to treat Yuan with the attitude towards Zhao, and said with caution: "I have met Mrs. Pavilion!"

Yuan just nodded slightly in response, Zhao said with a far-fetched smile: "Why do you have time to come here?"

Yuan ignored Zhao and sat down on the nanmu chair next to the coffee table, saying indifferently: "Madam Fang, sit down!"

Mrs. Fang sat down cautiously. After all, he was just a businessman's wife. She could bully Zhao, who was also from a low-class family and was a house-filling house, but she had to be careful and respectful to Yuan.

Zhao stood aside awkwardly because the chair Yuan was sitting on was the one she had just sat on. Even the master was carefully serving him, so Cuiyun naturally did not dare to act rashly, so she quickly served tea to Yuan.

Yuan said indifferently: "I came here this time to talk about Ruyi's girl. Since Mrs. Fang happened to be here, she happened to explain it clearly to each other, which would save trouble."

Mrs. Fang smiled and said, "You said!"

Yuan said lightly: "Then I will just say that our Fei family is a prominent family in Qianshan. The Fang family and the Fei family are not in a good relationship. Let's give up the marriage between Ruyi and the prince of the noble family. I will order people to return everything to the Fang family."

Mrs. Fang looked extremely embarrassed and stood up and said, "Since Mrs. Fei said that, I will say goodbye!"

Yuan picked up the teacup, gently used the lid to pluck the foam on the tea soup, and said without raising his head, "Send out the guests!"

"No need!" Mrs. Fang walked out of the door with her maid angrily.

Zhao stood awkwardly, although she was dissatisfied, she didn't dare to interrupt. After all, she was just a reincarnation of the big room, and with her humble origin, she had no say.

After Mrs. Fang left, Yuan took Fei Ruyi's Geng letter from her arms and put it on the coffee table. She glanced at Zhao coldly and said indifferently: "You gave the Geng letter to the Fang family, right?"

Zhao smiled and said, "Madam, Ruyi is a lot older, and it's not a solution to always drag it like that, so I thought about booking a marriage for her first."

Yuan shouted coldly: "It's outrageous. Ruyi is still filial to his father. Don't you know?"

Zhao clan said, "I just get engaged first, and I don't violate the rules!"

Yuan shouted angrily: "Don't argue here. Ruyi is the eldest daughter of the eldest son. Although the eldest brother and sister-in-law are gone, it's not your turn to take over the marriage. You dare to hide such a big thing from me. It's really lawless. What kind of guy is that the third young master of the Fang family? You actually covered your conscience and pushed Ruyi into the fire pit for that little betrothal gift!"

The slaves around were silent. In the Fei Mansion, the servants were most afraid of not the master Fei Hong, but the wife Yuan, who held the power to manage the back house.

Zhao was scolded and said with a savage: "Madam, you can't say that. Although the third young master of the Fang family is addicted to playing fighting games, he is still a good person..."

"Shut up, what do you know, a woman? How much do you know about the outside? The Fang family is involved with the Ning Prince's Mansion. The eldest brother was killed by the thief under the Ning Prince's Mansion. You actually asked Ruyi to marry the Fang family. Is your mind in trouble?"

Zhao was speechless. She was just a short-sighted woman who was just a greedy and short-sighted woman. How could she consider this?

Yuan scolded in anger: "All the silver gifts I received were returned to the Fang family in a lot of money, and the daily expenses for the East Mansion will be reduced by half."

Zhao's face changed. He added a cup of tea to Yuan with a shy face and said with a smile: "Madam, don't be angry. I will return everything to the Fang family tomorrow. I did this inappropriately. I will compensate my wife for something wrong. I promise not to do it.

You see if the cost can be stopped. It doesn’t matter if I am, but the servants in the mansion are afraid of complaining, let alone Ruyi she…”

Yuan said indifferently: "You don't have to worry about Ruyi, and her monthly payment will be distributed by the mansion there in the future."

Zhao suddenly became depressed, and knelt on the ground with a thump, begging, "Madam, just spare me this, I will never dare to do it again."

Yuan snorted coldly, picked up the Geng Tie on the coffee table and put it in his arms, and said indifferently: "Let's spare you this time, and next time you will clean up and go back to your parents' home!"
