Miss Lin Family of the Red Chamber

"Miss, Eldest Young Master asked someone to send this small box, saying it was for you, Miss."

Ming Xiang, the second-class maidservant of Feiluan Pavilion, held an exquisite small box to Meng Yan. Seeing the familiar exquisite box, Meng Yan slowly smiled very lightly.

"Eldest son, can you let me pass the message."

"Eldest Miss and Eldest Young Master are indeed twin siblings. Eldest Young Master sent a message: Mr. Yan is here to visit." Ming Xiang smiled and said flattering Meng Yan.

Meng Yan is the eldest daughter of the Lin family, and the servants who serve her should include a nanny, a nurturing nurse, two senior maids, four second-class maids, and four junior maids. .It's just that Meng Yan doesn't like too many people around her. The only maidservant around her has always been Hongxiao, and her mother only teaches her mother Chang.The news that Hongxiao was going to be released for a match got out after entering Beijing, so the four second-class maids in Feiluan Pavilion were all eyeing the places of Meng Yan's two senior maids.Ming Xiang is the smartest among the four second-class maids, so naturally she cannot miss this opportunity.It's not a good thing to be just a maid sometimes being too clever.

Meng Yan knew about the competition among the maids, but she didn't care, and she just let them fight to choose a more suitable person.

"Where is the red silk?"

"Sister Honghao has gone out. Sister Honghao didn't say where she is going." Ming Xiang rushed to reply before the other three second-class maids, quietly watching Meng Yan's face while speaking.

Meng Yan didn't care about Ming Xiang's gaze, she thought of what she had ordered Hong Xiao two days ago.

"Go to the small kitchen and send a message to Aunt Zhao, asking her to prepare it. I will make milk-flavored fruit pie later."

"Yes, Miss."

Meng Yan changed her clothes and went to the small kitchen to make a lot of milky apple pies for half an hour.Because people here call apples auspicious fruit, Meng Yan didn't want to change the name at will, but calling it auspicious fruit pie is really awkward. Later, Meng Yan thought of the milk added to the dough and named it milk fragrant fruit pie.

Put most of the panna cotta into the food box, and put the rest into six plates.

"Mingxiang sent these to the master, madam, second lady and the two young masters."

"It's Missy. Missy, won't the eldest son give it away?" Ming Xiang stretched her neck and looked at a plate of milk-flavored fruit pie next to a food box.Meng Yan was displeased by Ming Xiang's actions, but she didn't show it because of a twinkle in her eyes.

"You don't have to worry about it, just send the things as I ordered."

"It's Miss."

Ming Xiang recruited a little maid to put all the fruit pies in a snack box and lead the little maid out, Meng Yan looked at Ming Xiang's back with unpredictable eyes.It seems that the granddaughter of the housekeeper Lin has a big heart, and the last thing she needs is a big-hearted maid by her side.

"Miss, miss, the maidservant is back." Hongxiao ran into the house excitedly, her face flushed red in the winter, it was obvious that she had been running for a long time. "Miss, there is new news."

"Wantang, pour ginger tea for Hongxiao. Don't worry, drink a cup of tea to warm up before talking. Sit down."

"Sister Hongxiao, please drink some tea."

"Thank you ma'am."

"Wantang, stay and listen."

Wan Xiang was about to go out after serving tea, and Meng Yan told her to stay.

"Miss?" Hongxiao looked at Wantang and turned to look at Mengyan in doubt.

"Aunt An said this morning that she fell in love with the manager of Uncle De's subordinate who is in charge of the incense shop in the capital. She said that you have met me and agreed, and she will let you go out to be a good lady after the new year. You take advantage of this It's time to take care of Wantang." It means to mention Wantang to succeed Hongxiao as the first maid.

Didn't you want to mention Mingxiang? Why did you change it to Wantang again?Mingxiang Kelin's granddaughter.Wantang was overjoyed to hear this.

Hung Hom was puzzled but didn't ask, she is the young lady's servant and only needs to follow the young lady's orders.

"It's Miss."

"If you hear any news, tell me quickly."

"Miss, the news just came back from outside. I heard that Ningguo Mansion invited the women's families and masters of Rongguo Mansion to participate in the plum appreciation banquet."

"Plum Appreciation Banquet?" Ning Mansion Plum Appreciation Banquet is not the one...: "When is it?"

"The tenth day of the twelfth lunar month the day after tomorrow."

"I know about this, you take Wantang and send the food box on the table to the Eldest Young Master."

"But Uncle Yan is with the eldest son?"

Hongxiao's eyes lit up, and she looked at Meng Yan with a playful look.

Seeing this, Meng Yan's face felt as if it was on fire, and she became angry for a moment.

"Miss, you are shy, hee hee."

"Well, you Hongxiao dare to make fun of Miss Ben, let's see how Miss Ben will deal with you." Meng Yan stared angrily and raised her hand. When Hongxiao saw her lady raised her hand, she secretly said that she couldn't hurry and beg for mercy.

"Miss, this servant is wrong. Miss, please spare this servant a lot. Don't want you to vent your anger by beating this servant." .

"Go, your face is thicker than the walls of our Lin Mansion, don't stand here and rush to send things over." Meng Yan pushed away the approaching face of the red silk, she was not in the habit of hitting people casually.

"Your servant obeys." He saluted Meng Yan and urged Wan Tang with a food box.

"Sister Hongxiao."

"Still in a daze, hurry up and follow." If the lady regrets it later, it will be a disaster.

After Hongxiao and the two left, Meng Yan wondered about the plum feast in Ningfu.Looking back carefully at the original work, I vaguely remember that this happened in the original work.By the way, I remembered the Plum Blossom Banquet in the Ning Mansion, when Jia Baoyu was lured into an illusion by police illusions and turned into an affair Qin Keqing gave him to do.

Recalling this, Meng Yan twitched her lips sarcastically, spreading rumors is not something that only the Jia family can do.

The red silk in the front yard sent Meng Yan's fruit pie to Meng Zhou's study, where Meng Yan and Yan Chengze were playing chess.Yan Chengze came back to Beijing on errands and heard the rumors about the Lin family, so he came to see him and wanted to see if he could help.

"Young Master, Young Master Yan, these are pastries made by the young lady herself. They are freshly baked. I specially ordered my servants to bring them to the young master so that you can taste them." Hongxiao said, serving the pies from Wantang's food box. Come out and put it on the table.

"Eldest sister made it by herself? My father, mother, sister, and brother will give it to me."

"Yes, I have sent them all, Eldest Young Master."

The elder sister is the most considerate in doing things, but he just asks along the way.

"Then the elder sister gave it to me specially." Meng Zhou said as he moved the plate to his side, without any sense of disrespect in his actions, and even took a smug look at Yan Chengze when he was done.

Since the Meng family married into the Lin family, receiving the love of their parents made up for the lack of love from their parents in the previous life, and Meng Zhou's temperament became much clearer.

"The dim sum made by elder sister is the best, but elder sister seldom cooks." Meng Zhou squeezed a fruit pie and ate it while talking, without any intention of inviting Yan Chengze to eat. This action was clearly intended to show off like Yan Chengze.

"Yeah, sweet but not greasy, crispy and delicious, delicious..."

Look, the elder sister is still thinking about my younger brother.

Yan Chengze shook his head and looked at his brother-in-law and friend speechlessly. Sure enough, brother-in-law is the most difficult thing to serve, but whoever makes his sister "make things difficult" for him can only hold back.It's just that my brother-in-law's childish showing off is really unbearable to look at directly.

If Yan Chengze had come from time travel, he would have known that Meng Zhou's appearance was the future sister-in-law.

After eating a fruit pie, I took another one and felt that it was almost ready, and then pushed the plate out, "Come on, Qinghe, you have to try it too. Elder Sister makes dim sum, but you can't get it anywhere else."

show off.

"Hey, Honghao are you still there?" Meng Zhou found out that Honghao was still standing next to the ground after fumbling.

Knowing Meng Zhou's temperament is not afraid of being red, he rolled his eyes indistinctly, my son, I have always been okay.

Seeing her young master's frightening appearance, Hong Hoo felt aggrieved for her future uncle, and whenever her young master met a young lady, the image of a refined son would be thrown out of the door.

"The maidservant hasn't finished what the lady told me."

"What's the matter, elder sister?"

Hongxiao brought the big food box in front of Yan Chengze and said: "This is specially made by the eldest lady, let Mr. Yan take it back, and let the old man and the old lady taste it."

Hearing this, Yan Chengze had a gentle smile on his face: "Thank you Miss for me."

"Miss knows that the young master is here to cook for me." Hongxiang smiled, she felt that she had the responsibility to give her young lady a good impression in front of the future son-in-law.

Yan Chengze was in a good mood, and the embarrassment he had been made by Meng Zhou dissipated in an instant.Yan'er really missed him.This time it was Yan Chengze who showed off to Meng Zhou. He picked up the fruit pie and began to eat it with gusto.

"Eldest sister is too much, how could she forget her younger brother when she sees sex." Meng Zhou stared fiercely at Yan Chengze, making a sad look.Seeing Meng Zhou for the first time, who looked completely different from usual, Wan Tang was immediately petrified.

"My lord, this servant will convey this to the eldest lady." Hongxiao smiled and saw Meng Zhou's serious tone.

"Don't, Hongxiao, you can't hurt me, my lord." Meng Zhou became anxious when he heard this. If the elder sister knew this, he would never want to eat the pastries made by the elder sister.The eldest sister can make more than pastries, the fruit wine brewed by the eldest sister is also excellent, if he can't drink it, how will he live his life.

"Hongxiao, can you see if this works? As long as you promise not to tell the eldest sister, I will give you a big gift when you get married in the next year, and I will give you a long vacation when Songmo gets married, so that you How about giving birth to a little nephew for you as soon as possible?"

"Son..."

Hongxiao's face was already flushed when she heard Meng Zhou's jokes, stomping her feet and glaring at Meng Zhou, she turned around and fled in panic, Wan Tang, who had been numb from the shock, quickly followed.

Ashamed, Meng Zhou turned around to eat the last piece of fruit pie, and saw Yan Chengze taking the last piece of fruit pie, and hurriedly reached out to grab it, but Yan Chengze had better eyesight and quick hands than Meng Zhou, so he just snatched the last piece of fruit pie from Meng Zhou. Pie, eating it happily, which made Meng Zhou angry.

"Qinghe! You are too much, why did you finish eating, you left a piece for me."

Yan Chengze ignored his friend's anger, took out his handkerchief and wiped his hands gracefully after eating the last piece of fruit pie.

"It's getting late today and I should go back. I'll visit my uncle again in a few days, and I'll let you make the dim sum made by Yan'er next time."

After speaking, he recruited his entourage to slap his ass with the food box and left, leaving behind Meng Zhou who was suffocated by himself.

"This guy is really too much. He dares to treat my brother-in-law like this before he is married to his elder sister..." Meng Zhou stared at his friend who left contentedly, thinking about how to fight back next time.
