As the eldest grandson of the Hai family, Yaoyao is naturally highly valued, and the preparations for this full moon banquet were more lively and thoughtful than the last time.
In the General's Mansion, the sun was shining brightly, and the people in the mansion were busy coming in and out, looking lively and energetic. Early in the morning, Gu Chunzhu picked out a festive but not overwhelming dress, and waited to change into his clothes before going out after breakfast.
"Mother Liu, find the hairpin that I just received two days ago. It goes well with this dress." Gu Chunzhu stroked his hair on his temples in the mirror.
"Sigh." Mother Liu responded, she had already turned around to get the exquisite jewelry box, she carefully placed it in front of Gu Chunzhu, opened it, and picked out a hairpin made of jadeite that was warm and translucent.
"Ma'am, this hairpin looks so good on you." Liu's mother said, and a pair of skillful hands had firmly pinned the hairpin into the bun on Gu Chunzhu's side.
"Where's An An?" Gu Chunzhu got up and checked his appearance in front of the mirror. Then he remembered and looked at the door, but there was still no sign of An An.
"Mother, I'm here." Before seeing her, she heard his voice first, and An An came from the door with a jubilant female voice, "Mother, I met Steward Wang in the yard just now and saw that he was holding this in his hand. Big box." An An said, carefully holding a square lacquered wood box.
"I just asked him, and he said he wanted to give this to you, so I brought it along by the way." An An put down the box and said, "Mother, what's in it, it seems very precious."
Gu Chunzhu was stunned for a moment, then immediately remembered that it was the set of gold jewelry that she had asked Butler Wang to pick up.
"It's really precious when you say it's precious." Gu Chunzhu walked up to him with a smile and slowly opened the door, "This is the full moon gift that I specially asked the craftsman to create for you, brother Yaoyao. The ceremony is light and affectionate."
"Wow." An An heard the words, and immediately stepped forward to take a look, the golden light of the gold jewelry was reflected in her big black grape-like eyes, which made her not only sigh, "This time it is really exquisite and beautiful, it seems that It is said that slow work and careful work are true at all.”
Gu Chunzhu smiled and looked at her surprised look, and couldn't help but touched the hair on her forehead and said, "It's almost time, let's go."
"Yeah." An An nodded obediently, and walked towards the carriage outside the mansion with Gu Chunzhu.
Gu Chunzhu carefully put An An on the carriage, then got into the car and sat down, raised his hand and put the jewelry box handed over by Liu's mother into the sedan chair, and then signaled that she could let the coachman set off.
There is a lot of people coming to participate in the full moon wine. The front of the door has been lively and lively, and a few big-faced guests are personally accompanied by Master Hai.
As soon as an official was sent in on the front foot, Young Master Hai raised his head to see Gu Chunzhu and his group. He immediately walked up to him with a smile on his face, and said beamingly, "Madam, you are here, I have been waiting for you."
Gu Chunzhu responded with a polite smile to Young Master Hai's warm greetings, nodded and followed him into the Hai Mansion. The full moon banquet in Haifu has already been held, and many guests have already taken their seats, but there are still some empty seats. She raised her head to look at the time, and before the feast was over, she offered to go to Liu Xiniang's place to take a look first.
"Okay." Because he was happy today, Young Master Hai didn't say much, and very readily let the servant girl in the house lead Gu Chunzhu to Liu Xiniang's place.
"Xiaoxi." Gu Chunzhu's brisk voice came, and Liu Xiniang happily hugged Yaoyao and greeted her.
"Oh, I haven't seen you for a few days, and I've become a big fat boy." Gu Chunzhu smiled and pinched Yaoyao's little face, looked up at Liu Xiniang again, and saw her ruddy complexion, so he felt relieved. Come.
Gu Chunzhu and Liu Xiniang just said a few words of self-confidence here, and someone called from the front, saying that the banquet was about to start.
At the full moon ceremony, when Yaoyao shaved the lanugo, Young Master Hai asked Gu Chunzhu to put on the set of gold jewelry she sent him. The golden jewelry with exquisite workmanship made the guests couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration. , and then the banquet began with a crowd of congratulations.
By the time Gu Chunzhu and the others left Hai Mansion full of food and food, and returned to the General Mansion, it was already dark. Xu Shi ate a lot of fish and meat at the full moon banquet in Haifu. Gu Chunzhu felt a little greasy in his stomach, so he wanted to eat some cabbage to relieve his tiredness, so he asked Mrs. Liu to instruct the kitchen to make a bowl of cabbage and ham soup.
In the quiet room, the candle light flickered gently, Gu Chunzhu took a sip of soup leisurely, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that time passed so quickly, and it was another month in the blink of an eye.
"By the way, how is the price of vegetables outside Mama Liu?" Gu Chunzhu asked suddenly looking at the cabbage leaves in the bowl.
"Ma'am, the price of vegetables is still going up." Mother Liu replied.
"Is it still rising?" Gu Chunzhu repeated thoughtfully and lightly, with a worried look in his eyes. After a long pause, he lowered his head and continued to drink the soup and rested.
A few quiet days passed in the General's Mansion. On this day, Gu Chunzhu was sitting in a daze in the conservatory when he heard the hurried footsteps of Liu's mother.
"Ma'am, the general's letter is here." Liu's mother handed over the intact envelope in her hand as she spoke.
When Gu Chunzhu saw it, he immediately took the letter over and overjoyed. He tore the opening and took out the letter. His big eyes quickly swept across the paper.
"Madam, what did the general say in the letter?" Liu's mother couldn't help but ask when she saw Gu Chunzhu's eyes were full of joy and splendor, thinking that there must be good news.
"Brother Wang said that the locust plague in the south has been stabilized, and
He will be back in a few days. "Gu Chunzhu said, covering the letter on his chest, and said with happiness at the corner of his mouth, "Mother Liu, have all the fashionable materials that the family received a few days ago delivered to the embroidery workshop? "
"Well." Liu's mother nodded, not knowing what she meant.
"Go, follow me to the embroidery workshop." Gu Chunzhu, who was overjoyed, carefully put away the letter, got up and said, "Go and make some new clothes for Brother Wang."
Liu's mother immediately followed her out of the flower room when she heard that, and heard Gu Chunzhu whispering excitedly, "I don't know if he has lost weight."
As soon as he entered the embroidery workshop, Gu Chunzhu didn't even care about his friend greeting her, so he went straight to Luo Xinlan. After turning around, he finally found her in a room.
"Sister Luo, are you busy?" Gu Chunzhu asked with a smile. When Luo Xinlan saw it was her, he immediately handed the work to Xiu Niang, stepped forward and said with a smile, "Why are you here in such a hurry? Just say it, I'll go to the front hall to find you."
Gu Chunzhu shook his head with a smile, and asked Liu's mother to take out the embroidery pattern she designed herself from her arms and said, "I'm here to make some new clothes for Brother Wang, and the materials will be the most fashionable ones. Here it is, you can just watch the arrangement."
