Luo Shi followed Tian Minyan step by step, holding her hand tightly, with a bit of fear on his face. He saw the scenery of the garden from the corner of his eye, and was amazed in his heart, but he did not dare to look around.
Tian Minyan, on the other hand, kept a calm look on her face, just thinking about the origin of the Liu family and why she was invited?
After passing through the garden, we entered the weeping flower gate. On both sides were hand-held verandahs. A pond was dug under the verandah, and lotus flowers were planted there. At this time, in May, the lotus flowers had already formed buds, and they were pink and white and very beautiful.
Walking through the verandah, there is a large courtyard with a small building. The courtyard is elegantly and meticulously decorated, with sparse flowers and trees, and a quiet environment.
As soon as they entered the courtyard, a middle-aged man came face to face. Tian Minyan and the man looked at each other and were both startled.
"Aren't you just..."
"Butler Liu, why is it you?" Tian Minyan exclaimed in surprise. Suddenly remembering that the family's surname was Liu, she sneered and said, "Oh, you turn out to be the housekeeper here."
"Oh, you are the girl selling Wangwang firewood in front of you. Why are you here?" Butler Liu obviously also thought of Tian Minyan.
That's right, the person in front of her is the housekeeper named Liu who made Tian Minyan his first money. When she was selling firewood, she was at the west gate of the back street. Today she entered from the east corner. No wonder she didn't expect that the Liu family was the same one back then.
That Liu family.
"What a coincidence. I heard this nanny said that it's Mrs. Liu here who has something to ask me. Butler Liu, do you know what it is?" Tian Minyan felt more at ease when she met an acquaintance, and couldn't help but smile and ask.
"It turns out that he is a guest of the eldest grandma." Butler Liu said oh, and then said to the nanny: "From the Zheng family, you can go and do your own business. I will take this girl to meet the eldest grandma, who is grandma."
"Mr. Liu, I'm sorry to trouble you." Aunt Zheng smiled and bowed, then left without mentioning anything.
Tian Minyan walked with Manager Liu and answered his questions, which were nothing more than how old she was, who was in her family, and what she was studying.
Arriving in front of the main room, Tian Minyan saw another girl dressed as a maid who came up to her with a smile and said hello. After listening to Manager Liu explaining the purpose of his visit, he looked at Tian Minyan's mother and daughter and said with a smile: "Young Master, Nai, Nai is waiting for you.
Girl, please tell us to wait."
Tian Minyan smiled and said, "Sorry, I was just about to clean up the stall, but I'm late. I don't know..."
"Now that you're here, come in quickly." The maid smiled and led the way.
Manager Liu told Tian Minyan a few more words and left without mentioning it.
The maid opened the curtain, and Tian Minyan and Luo Shi walked in one after another. As soon as they entered the door, they felt a burst of warmth hit their faces, and Tian Minyan couldn't help but frown.
Although the weather in May is suddenly warm but still cold, there are still some people who still turn on the heater at this time. I guess someone is weak.
With this thought in mind, Tian Minyan raised her head and quickly looked around the room. There were two rows of chairs on both sides of the sorghum-painted building. There were also several landscape and ink paintings hanging on the wall. A pair of exquisite glazed vases were placed on the antique shelves on both sides of the wall.
There were two large pear wood chairs placed in the center. A beautiful young woman wearing luxurious silk satin sat on the upper chair, with one hand on the table beside her and a smile on her lips as she looked at Tian Minyan.
The maid who led the way smiled and said, "This is our eldest mistress, Nai." Then she placed two futons in front of Tian Minyan and Luo Shi.
When Tian Minyan looked at it, her eyebrows furrowed even more tightly. This posture was not asking her to kneel down, right?
Luo Shi was also a little stunned. She didn't even dare to raise her head and tried to kneel down. Tian Minyan quickly pulled her with her eyes and hands and shook her head.
The so-called kneeling to the sky, kneeling to the ground, and kneeling to your parents, maybe Tian Minyan will be loyal to reality, kneeling on the loess, kneeling on the royal family, but why should the Liu family kneel on their own when they invite her?
Therefore, Tian Minyan just lightly blessed her body and said crisply: "Liu Da, grandma is fine. I wonder why your house invited my mother and daughter to come?"
Grandma Liu Da's eyes were gentle and her manners were elegant and generous. When she saw Tian Minyan looked neither humble nor arrogant, she secretly admired that this child has a bit of magnanimity.
Seeing his maid's face full of displeasure, she glanced at the futon on the ground and couldn't help shaking her head and scolding: "Huan'er, there is no reason to ask guests to kneel down. Why don't you quickly put away the futon and serve tea."
The maid named Huan'er quickly responded, put away the futon and retreated.
"It's my girl who's rude and I've made you laugh. Please take your seat quickly." Grandma Liu Da looked at Tian Minyan and the others with a smile and said.
Luo Shi glanced at Tian Minyan and saw that she was sitting, so he dared to sit on the chair next to her, but he just sat sideways and next to her.
Grandma Liu looked at Tian Minyan in surprise when she saw the two people's quarrel. It seemed that this lady was acting because of her daughter.
In an instant, Huan'er held the tea and placed it on the coffee table between Tian Minyan and Luo Shi, and stood beside Grandma Liu.
"I wonder what I call you, Madam?" Liu Ye asked, looking at Luo with a smile.
Luo Shi was a little embarrassed. After all, this was the first time she had seen such a wealthy family, and the first time she had talked to such a refined person, so she stood up nervously, frowning at Tian Minyan.
She didn't blame Luo, after all, she was just from a humble family and had never seen the big world. Liuye's every move and the aura around her made her feel unattainable, but also deeply in awe.
"To tell you my story, my husband's family name is Tian, my maiden name is Luo, and I am known as Sanniang."
"It turns out to be Mrs. Tian."
"I don't dare to say it as a madam." Luo Shi suddenly felt a little frightened and said shyly: "Young mistress, you can call me Sister-in-law Tian."
"Sister-in-law Tian, just sit and talk. There is no need to be restrained. Just treat it as if it were your own home." Liu Ye said with a smile: "Let's have some refreshments too."
"Actually, it was me who was rude. I invited you here without explaining everything clearly. I hope Sister-in-law Tian, Miss Tian, will take some care of you. I just asked you for something."
Tian Minyan looked at her and saw a trace of sadness and melancholy on her eyebrows. Coupled with her delicate face, she looked like Lin Daiyu.
"Liu Da/Grandma, I don't know what you want." Tian Minyan then asked.
Liuye looked at her and said with a smile: "Actually, it's not a big deal. I have a child at home who has deficiencies since birth and is weak. Perhaps it is due to the change in weather these days, he is becoming more and more reluctant to eat.
He has also lost a lot of weight, and his illness seems to be getting worse."
Speaking of this, Liuye's eye circles gradually turned red, and he sniffed and said, "Qiao'er, yesterday I went to Putuo Temple to worship the gods and came back. I saw the snacks you sold, called cakes, so I bought some, but I didn't want to
The kid likes it. I just want to ask Sister-in-law Tian if she can sell me that recipe."
As he said that, he looked at Luo Shi happily, with some pleading in his eyes.
Luo Shi was startled and said: "You have to ask my daughter about this, because she made this cake for food."
Yan thanks everyone for the gold medal, and thanks for the gift support, okay~
