Daming female local tyrant

Fang was very happy to see Shen Wan coming out in person, and greeted each other, her two daughter-in-laws, Ai Shi and Qiu Shi, and Tao Yuehua also came forward to salute Shen Wan.

Shen Wan returned the gift and said: "This place is simple and crude, no more than the Tao family's house, please don't dislike it and go in and sit down."

Fang said with a smile: "Although this place is simple and simple, it is the old house of the Shen family, a famous family in the south of the Yangtze River. There is even a young lady here, which makes this place flourish. People say that if a mountain is not high, there are immortals." Spirit, the water does not know the depth, there is a dragon and there is a spirit. The eldest lady is the fairy here, and the dragon here."

What she said was really beautiful, not to mention that Shen Wan listened to it and benefited from it, even Cui Zhu and Zhao Siniang who came out to greet the guests after her heard it, they also smiled like a flower, thinking that it would be okay. Serving Shen Wan was cultivated in their previous lives.

After Tao Yuehua greeted Shen Wan, she looked behind Shen Wan and was quite disappointed that she didn't see Jing Lan.

But at the moment her mother was talking to Shen Wan, she couldn't cut in and ask Shen Wan where Jing Lan was.

She thought, most likely, Jing Lan didn't come out to greet her, she was cooking something delicious.

Before Jing Lan left Suzhou to return to Jinhe Town last time, she had personally promised her that when she visited the Shen family's old house in Jinhe Town, she would make delicious food for her.At that time, Jing Lan made a fool of herself, saying that she would know what was delicious when she came.

For this reason, she was really looking forward to coming to the Shen family's old house in Jinhe Town.

After Jinglan left, she went to urge her mother several times, and finally her mother arranged a time to bring her two sister-in-laws and her to Jinhe Town.Thinking of meeting Jing Lan, she prepared another box of delicious snacks and candied fruit for her maid Rui Xue to carry.

She had heard from Jing Lan that Jing Lan would make a lot of delicious rice crackers, so she should be a gift from others after eating Jing Lan's rice crackers, so she personally picked out many snacks and preserves that she thought were delicious, and used them The pastel flowers and birds are packed in a box, and I plan to give Jinglan this box of snacks and candied fruit when I see her soon.

"Auntie, two older sisters, younger sister Yuehua, this way please." After greeting them, Shen Wan rolled up her sleeves and made a gesture of invitation.

Because Tao Yuanxin was a few years older than Shen Wan's father, Shen Wan called Fang's aunt and her two daughters-in-law sisters.

"Okay." Fang and the others nodded, followed behind Shen Wan slowly, and walked into the old Suzhou residence of the Shen family.

Although Shen Wan spent money to renovate the Shen family's old house, it has not undergone major repairs, so the inside of the house is much worse than the outside, and it looks rather old.Fortunately, although the old house is old, it is very clean. In addition, there are a lot of potted flowers, which make this old house have a quiet view.

Don't look at Shen Wan living in such a dilapidated old house, but Fang and the others did not dare to underestimate her.

After all, Shen Wan's father is the current head of the Shen family, and Shen Wan is the eldest daughter of the clan's family. Even if she is punished by Mrs. Li to come to Suzhou to think about her mistakes, she is destined to go back one day.Once Shen Wan goes back, there will be no less wealth.

If it hadn't been for Shen Wan being punished by old lady Li to come here this time, it would be impossible for Fang and the others to get to know Shen Wan.

Tao Yuanxin met Shen Wan's father, Shen Chang, but that was more than 20 years ago. Over the years, Tao Yuan has rarely seen him, and his friendship has also weakened a little.

The Shen family is much more famous than the Tao family, the first of the famous families in Jinling, and the Tao family can only be regarded as a richer family in Suzhou, not much famous.

Whether it was for the benefit of the family or the future of their descendants, Tao Yuanxin and the Fang family felt that they should associate with Shen Wan and establish a good relationship.

That's why the Fang family was so active. Less than half a month after Shen Wan visited Tao's house, she brought her two daughters-in-law and daughter to visit Shen Wan at the Shen family's old house in Jinhe Town.

Shen Wan walked with Fang and the others, stopping from time to time to tell them what kind of flower was blooming in the courtyard, and how much effort she had spent to buy it from the flower grower near Jinhe Town, etc. wait.

It is also necessary for women to get together to enjoy flowers, so Shen Wan introduced to Fang the flowers that she and Jing Lan went to buy together.

The Tao family also has a lot of potted flowers, and the Fang family usually plants and waters the flowers by themselves. When the flowers bloom, they cut off the flower branches and put them in vases, or put them on the hair bun.

The Shen family's old house is the third entrance, and the courtyard in front of the embroidery building where Shen Wan lives is especially full of flowers.

Moreover, Shen Wan likes fragrant flowers, and most of the potted plants in front of the porch are gardenia, jasmine, and yellow calamari.

Interspersed with some mint, geranium, pitcher plant.

The original large stone fish tank in the middle of the yard is now planted with water lilies, and there are beautiful koi swimming under the water lilies.

As soon as Fang and the others entered the yard, besides the fresh and fragrant fragrance of flowers, the eyes were filled with green flowers, and they immediately felt their eyes light up and felt very refreshed.

"Oh, girl, your yard is so well arranged, you really know how to grow flowers." After Fang walked closer to see those flowers and plants, she couldn't help but praise loudly.

Her eldest daughter-in-law Ai Shi followed up and said: "That's right, these fragrant flowers smell very fragrant in summer, but they attract mosquitoes the most and make people who appreciate flowers very annoying. But there are mint, geranium and pitcher plant It's very different."

Tao Yuehua, who was also sniffing the fragrance of flowers, asked Ai when she heard the words: "Sister-in-law, what kind of argument is this?"

Before Ai could speak, Fang poked her finger on Tao Yuehua's forehead: "Look at you, you jump up and down like a monkey all day long. These girls don't know anything about what they should know."

Tao Yuehua pursed her lips, pretending to be aggrieved, and asked Ai Shi: "Sister-in-law, do you know what these pitcher plants and geraniums are like when you are as old as me?"

Ai's natal family is also a wealthy family in Suzhou City, and she was also raised by her mother since she was a child.

Then she smiled and said: "My mother loves to play with these flowers and plants. I am the only girl in our family. Whenever my mother goes to play with flowers and plants, she takes me with her. I have been playing with my mother since I was a child." Flowers and plants, naturally you know what these flowers and plants say."

Tao Yuehua took her arm and shook it when she heard the words, and said coquettishly, "Sister-in-law, just come and listen to me, okay?"

Ai Shi first pointed to the mint and said: "The leaf is like a slap, the surface of the leaf is uneven, and it exudes a faint fragrance. It is mint. Usually you only know that mint can be used in tea, and it can refresh the mind after making medicine, but you don't know it. It can also repel insects. If someone is bitten by a mosquito, boil the leaves and apply it with water, it can cool down, reduce swelling and relieve itching."

After finishing speaking, she pointed to the potted plant with lavender flowers and said, "This is a geranium, which can also keep mosquitoes away in summer. To grow this flower, you need to water less and keep it away from light."

Everyone nodded slightly.

Finally, Ai Shi pointed to the potted plant with lavender vase-shaped flowers hanging down and said: "Look, does this look like a pig cage? This is the kind of flower that is commonly known as Nepenthes in the folk. This tweed can catch mosquitoes, just like that." There are many fragrant flowers around this flower, mosquitoes love to come, and when they come, they will be attracted by the nectar in the cage on the pitcher plant, and if they climb in, they will be wrapped up by the pitcher plant and cannot get out..."

As soon as Tao Yuehua heard this, she ran to pick a Nepenthes plant, looked inside, and saw ants and mosquitoes inside, she said with a smile: "This Nepenthes is really fun. As my sister-in-law said, it is Can catch insects."

"Hey, hey, do you remember this time?" Fang asked with a smile and glared at her daughter.

"Remember, mother, I'll remember everything. When I go back, I'll grow some fragrant flowers, mint, geraniums, and pitcher plants." Tao Yuehua said happily.

"That's good." Fang smiled lovingly, then she turned her eyes to Shen Wan and said, "Why don't you come to Miss, my daughter doesn't know when she will know this, so I have to thank Miss. "

Shen Wan waved her hands and said: "Why do you need to be so polite, Auntie, and two elder sisters, Sister Yuehua, follow me in for tea."

Fang said hello, and walked into the Xici Room of Xiulou with his two daughters-in-law and daughter.

The west room is where Shen Wan receives female guests. Under the south window, there is an arhat bed made of rosewood, mother-of-pearl and marble, surrounded by sixteen mahogany and tortoiseshell armchairs.Basically, one to 20 people can sit down.

"You two sisters, sister Yuehua, you're welcome, sit down." After Shen Wan led Fang Shi to sit down on the rosewood mother-of-pearl marble arhat bed, she greeted Ai Shi, Qiu Shi, and Tao Yuehua.

Ai Shi and Qiu Shi found the two armchairs closest to Fang Shi and sat down. Tao Yuehua didn't sit down, but looked around.

Seeing this, Fang frowned, and asked her: "Yuehua, Missy asked you to sit down and have tea and talk, why didn't you sit down?"

She thought it was obviously rude for Shen Wan, as the host, to ask her daughter to sit down, but if her daughter didn't sit down, she was still looking around.

"Oh...I..." Tao Yuehua couldn't explain why, then sat down reluctantly.

Shen Wan first saw Tao Yuehua looking around, but now seeing her restless look, she already knew why she was like this.

She should be looking for Jing Lan, since Fang Shi and others came, although she was mainly receiving Fang Shi, she could still see Tao Yuehua's every move very clearly from the corner of her eyes.

Tao Yuehua listened carefully only when Ai Shi said about the flowers and plants that repelled mosquitoes. At other times, she was looking around and felt that she was a little absent-minded when she fell into the eyes of others.

Seeing Tao Yuehua like this, Shen Wan frowned slightly, she didn't like her like this, as if she missed Jing Lan.Even though Jing Lan had told her repeatedly that she had no interest in Tao Yuehua at all, she just regarded her as a friend who could talk, but Shen Wan still didn't like Jing Lan and Tao Yuehua getting together.

Fortunately, Jing Lan is extremely busy every day now, and she is not in the house today. It seems that Tao Yuehua will not see Jing Lan when she comes to the Shen family's old house this time, which puts Shen Wan in a good mood.

"Girl, here comes the tea." After Cuizhu came in holding the tea tray, she put a pot of Jiangnan Fengtuan sparrow bud tea on the table in the middle of the rosewood and mother-of-pearl Luohan bed under the south window.

This is to meet the tea that Fang Shi specially made for her. The last time Shen Wan went to Tao's house as a guest, she knew that Fang Shi liked this tea.When Fang and others were enjoying the flowers outside, she ordered Cui Zhu to go to the small tea house to make a pot of this kind of tea to entertain Fang.

After the tea room in the Shen family's old house was repaired, Shen Wan opened an order to ask Jing Lan to go to the tea shop to buy a lot of good tea, put them in blue and white porcelain tea pots, and put them in the tea cabinet in the tea room.Each tea pot has the tea name written by her personally, and let the maids paste this on the blue and white tea pot.In addition, I also prepared a lot of candied dried fruits to accompany the tea, which were packed in small pastel jars with the name of the product on it.

The Jiangnan Fengtuan sparrow bud tea that Fang drank was in the tea leaves she had prepared.

Shen Wan personally poured Fang a cup of this tea and asked her to taste it.

Then, Cuizhu went to the tea room again, and brought walnut and pine nut tea to Fang's two daughters-in-law, as well as Tao Yuehua, Furen tea, and candied golden orange tea that Tao Yuehua liked to drink.

The author has something to say: This is a way of writing that pays more attention to details, and the rhythm is slower. I am a master of daily writing, and this skill has never been lost.

The pace of the previous narrative writing will be faster.

These two writing methods each have their own advantages.Which do you like more?

I can use it interchangeably, hahaha!

Come, give me your opinion, and I will count.
