After the prosperous Tang Dynasty

After burning the floor heating for several days, when the moisture inside the walls of the new house was dried up, and the house was also stained with the smoke and fire of life, Xiao Yansui finally asked the servants to stop burning the fire, and just simply opened the fire every day. The windows are ventilated, and the furniture is rearranged.

A few days ago, the beagle, who had followed Xiao Song to catch fish on the water on a rainy day, returned to Xiao Yansui's side, and followed every day step by step, even the pair of pointed ears were particularly energetic when they swayed.

Knowing that the hunting dog needs a lot of activity, Xiao Yansui doesn't care about it. The yard at home is so big that he can have as much fun as he wants.

Considering that the Tang Dynasty didn't have any dog ​​toys at the moment, Xiao Yansui found the kitchen by mistake and asked the cook to make a few meaty and bone-shaped flour products that were baked and hard enough to break teeth. Teething stick for the beagle, of course, it's not too serious if he crumbles a little bit and eats it...

However, as autumn became stronger and the temperature became colder day by day, although the beagle escaped, after being caught and educated by Xiao Yansui a few times, he finally won't go to the cool lotus by himself Jumped in the pool.

In the rebuilt house, the big bed and other furniture and furnishings are almost done now, and Xiao Yansui's mood can't help but become joyful.

In fact, at this moment in the Tang Dynasty, chairs and stools had just appeared, and they were not too popular. It was because Xiao Yansui had never had the habit of kneeling and sitting since she was a child. s things……

Xiao Yansui never cared about such things as the progress of history. Anyway, since she was to make troubles, there must be a comfortable sofa where she lives, as well as armchairs with wide backs and half-lying seats for the elderly She didn't care how to design these things to be consistent with the style of the surrounding furniture. Naturally, a carpenter who received her simple drawings and heard her specific requirements would find a way.

Anyway, Xiao Yansui planned to use this opportunity to fiddle with all the commonly used and practical furniture in later generations.

After completely treating the rebuilt yard as his ideal state of living, Xiao Yansui even asked someone to repair a swing chair in this yard. The upper and lower sides were fixed with ropes, so they could shake properly, but they couldn't fly out on the swing. kind of.

Seeing that the swing chair was working, the beagle jumped on it, "Wow!"

Xiao Yansui didn't care about it, just pondered for a moment, and then told Axiu who was beside her: "Let someone build a doghouse here too!"

"Ah..." Axiu couldn't help being stunned for a moment. After all, Xiao Yansui had always said that if Xiao Song liked it, this yard could be used by his grandfather, but he never said that if Xiao Song didn't like it. , she will move here by herself.

Xiao Yansui answered it as a matter of course, "If my grandfather lived here, I think the beagle would often go to visit him to play. Let's prepare a nest for him. It's in the yard, and it won't hinder any place."

Only then did Axiu suddenly understand, and hurriedly said: "Your servant understands, I'll go right away."

When Axiu went to order people to do things, Xiao Yansui went into the house by herself, looked around, and felt that the current state of the house was actually a bit like a model house in a sales office.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yansui couldn't help laughing himself. Through the wide open glass window, he looked at the conservatory that was still under construction and had a rough prototype. He put his chin on one hand and chuckled softly: "The conservatory seems to be well built. , but the flowers and plants inside, after asking Aunt what he likes, let's follow the way he chooses!"

Xiao Yansui herself has no preference for flowers and plants, as long as they bloom beautifully, she likes them all.

And to be honest, tending flowers and plants is actually a technical job. Xiao Yansui can speak clearly about the top advantages and soil and fertilizer issues. If she really let her get started with planting flowers, it is not as good as those who don't understand the principle, But experienced flower growers...

After a while, Axiu who gave the order came back again, and besides reporting to Xiao Yansui the arrangement just made, she also said: "Liu Niang, there was news from the workshop just now, saying that those craftsmen have sent The glassware you asked for last time is all ready."

Xiao Yansui became interested in an instant, and subconsciously asked, "Is everything all right?"

Stirring rods and beakers are all good things to say. For more detailed experimental equipment, you need to add corresponding scales. In fact, it is still a test of the skills of glass blowers. However, as expected of many years of craftsmen, Xiao It didn't take long for Yan Sui to find the finished product.

Axiu nodded, and replied: "The maid has ordered all those bottles and jars to be sent to the study."

After all, the new house here still has a lot of details to be repaired, so Axiu naturally sent the materials Xiao Yansui asked for directly to her residence.

"Go back and see the situation first!" Xiao Yansui turned around immediately, not even interested in continuing to check the situation of the new house, but left a sentence: "Go to someone and tell Ah Weng to see what he thinks about the furniture here. None like it."

A servant who had been in charge of the courtyard immediately nodded in response, and almost immediately after Xiao Yansui turned and left, he went to the main courtyard to report the situation to Xiao Song.

The beagle that was freed in the yard was still napping on the swing chair, but after hearing Xiao Yansui's footsteps gradually going away, he suddenly raised his head, jumped off the swing chair deftly, and quickly followed Go up, "Wow, woof, woof!"

Xiao Yansui touched the beagle very smoothly, and it reached the top of the fluffy head in his palm, and laughed at it, "Why have you been so clingy lately?"

"Wow!" The beagle wagged its tail and followed Xiao Yansui.

On the other side, when the servant went to the main courtyard, Xiao Song was sitting in front of the desk, looking at the letters in his hand with a smile.

As for the servant who came from Xu Guogong's mansion to send a new servant, he was telling Xiao Song vividly what happened in Chang'an City these days.

The first thing the servant who delivered the letter mentioned was the recent situation of Xu Guogong's wife, Mrs. He.

"My lady has been living in Lu's residence all this time. It is said that the health of the old lady He Shi of Lu's mansion is up and down, but my lady has been with me all the time, and the old lady of Lu's mansion can still eat. Think about it. The disease will gradually improve."

Xiao Song listened and nodded.

The servant who delivered the letter said again: "Everything is fine in the house. I haven't received a letter from my husband during this period. Xiao Langjun and the others have been talking about it for a long time, and they are also thinking about you."

As he spoke, there was a little hesitation on the servant's face.

"What else is there?" Xiao Song looked at him.

"Miss Pei has always been worried about Liu Niang's affairs and Jili, but I don't know what your husband's plan is..." the servant said in a low voice.

"This is indeed a problem." Xiao Song was not surprised, after all, as a mother, she must miss her own daughter more than others.

At the beginning, before he brought Xiao Yansui back to his hometown, he hesitated all the time, thinking that although his granddaughter was close to his grandfather, children would definitely be reluctant to part with their parents...

As for after returning to his hometown, Xiao Yansui found that no one cared about the tossing here, it was far from being in Chang'an City, and after more or less restrained, he began to play to his heart's content...

During this period of time, Rao Yiyi Xiao Song's city was overwhelmed by all the things that his granddaughter fiddled with, that is, he could indulge his own children, otherwise, he would not be able to change whoever came here. Maybe looking at Xiao Yansui cheerfully in his hometown, this posture is about to turn the sky upside down.

Thinking about the ability of the only precious granddaughter in his family, Xiao Song couldn't help but smile, and asked, "What else did Liu Niang and her aunt say?"

The servant said: "There is nothing else. Although Mrs. Pei has prepared some things related to the ceremony, if Liu Niang is not in Chang'an City, it will not be beautiful to make arrangements with great fanfare. It is also autumn. There was no movement around, and only then did Mrs. Pei tell me to ask you for a word."

"..." Xiao Song suddenly realized that he had indeed been negligent.

Here in his hometown, Xiao Yansui was manipulated by him, and he could do whatever he wanted, which almost turned the sky upside down. As for Xiao Song himself, he fished and raised flowers, played chess and drank tea every day, and occasionally brushed the glossy fur of two beagles. Also had a very comfortable time.

During this period of time, the lives of Xiao Song and Xiao Yansui's grandparents and grandchildren were very contented and comfortable. As for the matter of Jili, she knew without asking that Xiao Yansui must have forgotten it long ago. Xiao Song, although he didn't forget it, but he had already thought about it early in the morning. Since the granddaughter's 15-year-old birthday ceremony is too late, he should not do it at all, and wait until Xiao Yansui is 20 years old. .

Anyway, the most grand ceremony in a girl's life before she gets married is nothing more than this, and she definitely can't just let her granddaughter make do with it...

Xiao Song briefly told the servant about his plan, and also told him that after returning, he must tell Pei and Xiao Hua what he meant.

After all, according to the ancient Zhou rituals, the Jiji ceremony for noble women was held after their engagement and before their marriage.As for his own granddaughter, Xiao Song felt that since Xiao Yansui was obviously never shy in this regard, it is estimated that when she was 20 years old, it would be the same as now. It is completely in time for the ceremony at the age of 20, and the girl's body is also gradually Long haired, wearing a thick and gorgeous, rather complicated dress is also more beautiful and durable. Thinking about it this way, there is no problem at all.

After all, although it was said in ancient times that a 15-year-old girl was allowed to marry, but in the eyes of their elders, a 15-year-old girl whose appearance and stature has been changing for several years is actually still a half-grown child... …

When Xiao Song gave orders to the servant, he couldn't help but shook his head with a smile, and muttered in his heart, the couple loved their daughter so much, and they have been slandering him as an elder for some time...
