Chapter 1465 Housewarming Ceremony One (Happy Birthday to Book Friends Ma {xml} Sparrow)
Of course Mr. Tang knew that Madam knew everything, so he just reminded Man Bao, "It is better to be cautious about flowers and plants that can produce strange things. It is unlucky to have strange things."
He walked slowly down the corridor and said: "Although no one is paying attention now, no one can predict what will happen in the future, so it is best to be cautious from the beginning."
Wasn't she too young at that time to think of this?
Man Bao nodded honestly, she would only sell flowers to others now, and she would never keep any seeds.
Obviously, Master Tang also knew about it, so he shook his head and stopped attacking her on this matter, but he was also curious, "Where did you get all these flowers?"
Man Bao said with a sad face: "I bought it for a lot of money."
It's strange that Mr. Tang believes in her.
So I couldn't help but ask who I bought it from.
Man Bao kept her mouth shut and didn't speak. After several years of friendship, Mr. Tang knew her well. If she couldn't help but talk to him, there would be a chance to find out. If she kept her mouth shut, she would be intolerant of others.
That’s right to ask.
Master Tang shook his head and stopped asking about this matter, "Where will your family hold a banquet tomorrow?"
"There is a small garden behind the main hall, and there is an open pavilion there. The male guests are there, and the female guests are in a yard at the back, which is close to the garden. You can also go and play in the garden."
This matter was arranged by Mrs. Liu and Mr. Zheng, the menu was arranged by Zhou Lang, and the shopping was done by Wu Lang. Man Bao didn't worry too much.
In Mrs. Liu's words, they just have to play happily with their friends.
However, the proper etiquette must still be present.
Today is the housewarming celebration, so I have to give some gifts to my neighbors.
Zhou Lang packed three small jars of pickled vegetables, and also packed some old ginger and yam slices brought from home to make local specialties. Finally, he packed a few bags of snacks, divided them into three portions, and gave them to Manbao and the others, "Okay.
, send it to the neighbors, and come back as soon as you deliver it to your door, the guests will be here soon."
Man Bao thought for a moment, picked up a gift and said, "I'm familiar with the Du family, so I'll go to the Du family."
But that familiarity didn't seem very friendly, so Bai Shan said, "I'll accompany you."
Zhou Lixue said: "Let's go to Zhang's house. Brother Bai, you and Brother Bai can go to Sun's house."
Bai Dalang felt that this title was completely confusing, but he didn't want Zhou Lixue to call him Uncle Bai, so he agreed in a confused way.
He also carried a gift and dragged Bai Erlang away.
As soon as they arrived in the front yard, Liu Gui prepared a carriage for them. Zhou Lixue was so surprised, "You have to take a carriage when you go to a neighbor's house?"
Man Bao didn't want to ride in a carriage, "Just carry it and walk over there."
After all, it's on the same street, and Du's house is right next door, so it's only a short walk away.
Zhou Lixue thought so too.
But Bai Dalang insisted on taking the carriage. He dragged Bai Erlang into the carriage and said, "You go slowly. The Sun family is at the end. It's so far away, so I won't go."
Bai Erlang was convinced, so he got into the car with his brother.
Man Bao and Bai Shan walked out of the door on the left, carrying things in both hands, and walked for a while before arriving at the side door of the house next door. Man Bao paused, but Bai Shan directly passed her and continued walking forward, saying: "Don't
If you want to be lazy, how can you go through the side door when delivering gifts for the first time?"
Man Bao could only lower his head and keep up, "I don't think so at ordinary times, but I didn't expect it to be really far away. It's farther than my home to yours."
Bai Shan shook his head, "No, it's just that the journey from your home to my home is fun, so I don't think it takes long."
"This street is too empty. We should plant more flowers and plants so that it looks comfortable and doesn't feel too far when walking."
Arriving at the door of Du's house, Bai Shan knocked on the door.
When the servant of the Du family opened the door, Man Bao gave him the post he had written in advance and said with a smile: "Our family is the Zhou family next door. They are moving into a new house today. I came here to give some of our local specialties to the neighbors. Please accept it."
"
The servant quickly took it with both hands, saying that he would tell the master, and invited the two of them into the house to drink tea and rest.
Bai Shan declined. They were just here to give gifts and there were other things waiting for them at home.
Upon seeing this, the servant watched them leave. As soon as they left, he immediately picked up his things and ran to the main courtyard to report.
Zhou Lixue and Bai Dalang didn't come in either. They were all anxious to go back to work, mainly because they were not familiar with the family.
Although Mrs. Liu had inquired about the neighbors' situation in the past two days and asked them to memorize it, they did not want to have awkward conversations with strangers, so they left after delivering the gifts.
The Du family is the only one I'm somewhat familiar with, having at least met a few times, but that relationship isn't very good.
The Du family brothers had their blood drawn by Man Bao last year. Although the main conflict was between the prince, the Su family and the Du family, Zhou Man was also involved, so the Du family remembered Zhou Man as being on the prince's side.
Du Shu tidied up his clothes and was about to go out. When he passed by the main hall, he saw Du Yu turning things on the table with a look of disgust on his face. He took a look at it and asked, "Who sent this?"
It was also tied with red cloth, so it looked like a wedding gift.
Du Yu pointed to the west and said, "The Zhou family next door."
Du Shu stopped, turned around and looked around, and found that there were two packages of medicinal materials, and said: "Is this a housewarming gift for their family today? Let your sister-in-law prepare a gift and send it over later. See if she likes it. If
If you like it, just come and sit down."
"Brother, that's a doctor. Our family still wants to please a doctor?"
"That's the doctor who cured the Crown Prince!" Du Shu emphasized: "Prince Gong is currently in confinement in the palace, and the Crown Princess is pregnant. You should stay with Prince Gong less from now on."
Du Yu was unconvinced and said: "I just studied with Prince Gong and didn't do anything."
He paused and then said: "Even if the prince holds a grudge, there is no need for us to please a doctor, right? He is just a doctor."
Du Shu couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pat him, "Don't forget, she is not an ordinary doctor. Her father was a posthumous gift from His Majesty to Mianzhou Mu, so she can be called an official lady."
"That's just an official from the common people, and he was given as a posthumous gift after his death."
"Why do you like to be so sharp-tongued?" Du Shu said, "You're old now. If I say one thing to you, you can't say the same thing ten times. Can you think about what I said before you say it? Or think about what I said."
"If she were an ordinary doctor, would the prince give her the house in Chongyuanfang?" Du Shu sneered: "Don't look down on her. How many nobles live in Yongchongfang next door? How many people were from poor families before this dynasty?
He was born in a certain clan, but he only received the title of nobility because he followed His Majesty in the Southern and Northern Wars?"
Du Yu opened his mouth to speak, but Du Shu simply grabbed a piece of snack on the table and stuffed it into his mouth, and then said: "Okay, don't worry, besides the Zhou family and the Bai family, the Bai family of Longzhou also lives next door.
The person in the "Clan Chronicle" is not much different from our Du family, so if you feel really uncomfortable, just treat it as if you are dealing with the Bai family."
After saying that, he turned around and said, "Remember to ask your sister-in-law to deliver gifts. I'm busy today and don't have time to keep an eye on you. You're not allowed to go out and run around, do you hear me?"
Du Yu bit into pieces the snack in his mouth, muttered a few words and then agreed.
