Chapter 24 People in the Su Mansion Have a Tongue
When Nan Haomu reacted again, he had already been hugged by Su Zhu to the bed, his legs were covered by the quilt, and Su Zhu was wearing a white obscene clothes leaning against his side, with his wrists on his bent knees, fingertips Touching his knees one after another, he opened his eyes slightly and looked at Nanxiu who had recovered.
"What happened just now, I was rubbing your back, why did you come to bed!"
"You were drowning just now, I'll give you artificial respiration." Su Zhu tied up his clothes, and the collarbone was wide open, revealing his thin and seductive collarbone. Nan Ximu began to recall, those things just now...
"Did you kiss me just now?" Nan Ximu finally recalled the key part, covered his lips and looked at Su Zhu in disbelief, Su Zhu smiled wickedly, pulled up the curtain to cover the light outside the bed, and instantly went dark A lot, Nan Ximu involuntarily tightened his clothes, seeing Su Zhu leaning there motionless, couldn't help feeling scared.
"Yes, is there something wrong with my own wife? Are you going to go to the Yamen to sue me for being a hooligan?"
"..."
"It's getting late, let's go to bed earlier, my lady is tired enough today, let's rest and keep my strength for tomorrow!" Su Zhu couldn't help but pull Nan Xingmu into the bed, Nan Xingmu was just so confused He was stuffed into the bed in a daze, and then he was dazed by the incense in the house and lost consciousness, falling into a deep sleep.
Waking up early in the morning, Su Zhu was already fully dressed and was about to go out when she saw Nan Xingmu get up in a mess and sit on the edge of the bed like a dog that had been rubbed by anger, and walked to her side with a smile to comb her ears. With messy hair, "Lady, come to the front hall to have breakfast after washing up. I will go out after dinner."
"Where are you going?"
"The Ministry of Rites called me to inquire about some things. I should be free at noon. If I haven't come back after dinner, then you can eat first. After you eat, pick the albizia julibrissin in the backyard in the afternoon, and keep tea for aromatherapy. .”
Nan Ximu was still a little dazed at the moment, watching Su Zhu pinch his face and left the room, Huang Li and Hong Xing came up to help her change clothes and wash, when she finished packing and rushed to the lobby, Su Zhu had already been called by the etiquette department After leaving, there was a warm breakfast on the table, as well as salted duck eggs that Su Zhu had peeled for her.
"Is he leaving in a hurry?" Nan Ximu picked up the porridge bowl, the bottom of the bowl was no longer hot, he stirred the porridge and looked at the thick clouds outside the window, it was another rainy day, and his mood became bad.
"The Ministry of Rites sent someone to invite the master early in the morning. The master only took a sip of porridge and asked Qing Mu to follow him with the people from the Ministry of Rites." Chi Gua removed Su Zhu's white porridge and brought a plate of delicate twisted doughnuts When the table was served, Nan Ximu had no appetite, and suddenly felt a sense of loss early in the morning because of Su Zhu's absence.
"What's wrong Ma'am? The food is not to your liking?" Baitao saw that Nan Ximu was still holding the chopsticks, and her face was full of worries. She learned her skills from the chef of the imperial dining room in the palace. How could it make people think I have no appetite, the ups and downs of cooking skills in my life, looking at Hong Xing opposite, I also shrugged and expressed helplessness.
"Baitao, let me ask you something." Nan Ximu put down his chopsticks, looked at Baitao with a serious face, "Master, where is your ancestral home?"
"Luzhou."
"Luzhou? Luzhou is a hundred miles away from here. Why did your Su family settle here?"
"Master and Madam don't like to go far away, but there is business here in Huizhou, so I asked the master to come here after thinking about it. The master is growing the business here, so naturally he doesn't want to go back."
"Has your master ever been on a battlefield?" Nan Ximu still feels shocking when he thinks of the scars on Su Zhu's back, and thinks that the jade lotus root cake is unappetizing, so he throws it back into the bowl, while Baitao keeps silent when faced with such a question , but Hong Xing next to him said: "The master is a businessman, and since he was a child, he loved to do business with the people in the clan. We and my wife take care of the housework at home, so we don't know about the master's affairs."
"Then didn't he bring you from the old house?"
"The master returned to the old house four years ago, and brought us to Huizhou City three years ago. I don't know why the madam asked about these private matters. Those of us who are servants don't know much about the master's past affairs." Steward Chi This sentence is undoubtedly telling Nan Ximu that our Su Mansion has one tongue and one nostril to breathe out. It is very unlikely that you want to use stereotypes from us.
"Then..." Nan Ximu still didn't give up, and he wouldn't give up until he asked, but the crab cake stuffed into his mouth by Baitao, with sesame seeds sticking to his lips was numb, and Hongxing smiled and took another bowl of porridge and put it away In front of Nan Ximu, "Ma'am, eat quickly, or it will be cold, and it will hurt your stomach if it gets cold."
"..." Nan Ximu looked at the steaming white porridge and held back his doubts. He had just married into the Su Manor for only a month, but he seemed to be trapped in a deep quagmire, and the fog was difficult to uncover, but This family clearly regards themselves as their wives, but they can't see how close they are. It seems that we should be careful!
In the lobby of the Ministry of Rituals, Su Zhu came late and handed over his luggage to the acquaintances in the room, walked to his seat and sat down. Before he had a sip of hot tea, he heard "Master of the Ministry of Rituals is here", put down his teacup and got up, and followed everyone Salute to the Ministry of Rites.
"Calling everyone here so early in the morning is really disturbing everyone!" The lord of the Ministry of Rites is surnamed Zhang, and he is the nephew of the prime minister, Qin Yu. half the sky.
"Your Excellency summoned me, and I will come right away. Do you have any advice from Your Excellency?"
"Next month's fireworks show will coincide with the empress's birthday. Recently, it has been rainy and the sky is always covered with dark clouds. Qin Tianjian said that the next month will be light rain, so the fireworks show..."
"It's the plum season, and it's normal to have a lot of rain, but this year's rainy season seems to be more than half a month late. There are green trees planted by the Cailian Lake, and the fireworks must be enjoyed under the clear sky. It's better to postpone it for half a month and wait for the rainy season. Will it be held after the season?"
"No!" When the lord heard that he wanted to postpone it, he categorically refused. The emperor dotes on the empress, even if the empress's feet are caught by the gravel road in the back garden, he would invite the entire imperial hospital to see a doctor, and threatened to kill her. The craftsman who paved the stones, this time the fireworks conference is for the queen's birthday, now that it's postponed, I'm afraid I don't want it anymore!
The people from the Ministry of Rites and other people were arguing over this issue, Su Zhu could only feel his temples twitching from the noise, he leaned back on the chair in a bit of trouble, looked at Aoki and rolled his eyes and looked like vegetables Like the poultry section of the market.
"We are arguing like this. I don't know what is Boss Su's opinion?" The lord of the Ministry of Rites was so dry from the quarrel that he picked up his teacup and drank it down, but he saw Su Zhu sitting quietly on the side while drinking tea. He called Su Zhu by name, and Su Zhu raised his eyes to look around, and looked at himself quietly for a moment.
"Since the construction period cannot be delayed and the weather is unavoidable, the lotus flowers in Cailian Lake must be full of colorful flowers at that time. It is better to make small fireworks and insert them into lotus lanterns, and put them in the lake to illuminate the night view of the lake. Trees The lanterns are hung with colored paper lanterns to create a gorgeous feeling of fireworks, considering that the rainwater is not as good as the oil paper to cover the rainwater, and the small holes pierced with various flowers on the lanterns are reflected on the trees to create the illusion of blooming flowers."
"Not bad."
"In this way, the financial resources are reduced, and the firework transported by water to Huizhou City will be reduced due to the wet weather. I have always heard that the empress is a flower lover, so the empress must be delighted by the sight of such colorful flowers. .”
"Not bad! Not bad!" Master Ritual was blushing with others here, not as good as Su Zhu's little trick, nodded in satisfaction, and was about to finalize the plan and start to do it immediately.
Su Zhu's suggestion saves money and labor. Naturally, on the day of the fireworks display, the empress praised her, but unexpectedly, the real good show came later!
