Chapter 71 Cooperation Matters (1)
Li Xin's sisters and Sun Muling had breakfast together, and then Taiyue called for two little maids to clear away the cups and dishes, while Tingfeng brought hot tea.
Li Xin brought the tea and drank it slowly. Sun Muling glanced at her intentionally or unintentionally, and then looked away. Li Xin smiled secretly in his heart, but didn't show it at all on his face. She didn't know that Sun Muling came here early in the morning.
For what reason, just looking at Sun Muling's expressionless little adult appearance, she just endured it, not taking the initiative to bring up the topic, nor trying to expose Sun Muling.
"Young master, why don't you go to the old lady's place? If the young master doesn't go, the old lady will probably send someone to look for you." Seeing that Sun Muling never left, Dai Yue felt a little strange. There are also many young masters and ladies in the house, including relatives.
The children of the family often come to play in the mansion, but I don’t see the young master playing well with anyone! I don’t know how these new guests came to win the favor of the young master.
"Wen Hao, Yue Ting, do you want to go to grandma's place together?"
"We really want to pay respects to the old lady. You are more familiar with this house, so why not lead us the way?" Li Xin looked at Sun Muling with a smile.
"Okay! I'll take you there."
"The gifts I brought haven't been taken out yet! Call two people to move things for me!" Li Xin said and went into the house first. Sun Muling first asked Tingfeng to find two strong servants, and then
He also followed Li Xin into the house. Li Xin had already opened a box in the house. Inside the box were juicy, very fresh tomatoes and cherry tomatoes, brightly colored and very beautiful. In addition, there were several
The corn cobs are golden yellow and look very beautiful. Li Xin specially picked some long ones, the corn cobs are big, and the corn kernels on them are also big.
"You brought a lot of tomatoes and cherry tomatoes!" Sun Muling looked at the things in the box with bright eyes.
"There is nothing valuable at home. The most valuable things we can find are probably not rare in the house. So we can only bring some things that grow in the fields."
"What is this? Does it also grow in the ground?" Sun Muling looked at the tomatoes and cherry tomatoes happily, and his eyes were quickly attracted to the corn. Everyone is curious about things they have never seen before.
.Because there was not much corn planted this year, Li Xin never sold it at all, nor did he send it to shopkeeper Sun. Naturally, Sun Muling had never seen it.
"This is delicious, but the eldest sister wants to save it for making seeds, so she is not willing to give it to us. Grinding it into flour, making pancakes or steaming cakes is very delicious." Before Li Xin could answer, Yue Ting started talking.
The words went on.
"Really?"
Soon, two long, stout servant women came in. Li Xin asked the two women to move the boxes, and then they all went to Mrs. Sun's yard. It was the Chinese New Year, and the Sun Mansion was also in the house.
Things are getting busy inside and outside, and the servants in the mansion are all busy coming and going. The mansion is also decorated very festively, and it is really full of New Year flavor.
After entering Mrs. Sun's yard, Sun Muling quickly ran into the house to greet Mrs. Sun. Li Xin also entered the house with Wenbo and others. Mrs. Sun was giving instructions to several ladies in charge.
No one said anything and stood aside for the first time. After Mrs. Sun finished her instructions and the ladies in charge had left, Li Xin and Wenbo came forward to salute.
Looking at the Sun Mansion, it seems that Mrs. Sun is in charge of the inner house!
"This little greedy cat came over early in the morning to disturb you, right? Let me tell you! Why didn't you see anyone during breakfast?" Mrs. Sun poked Sun Muling's head with a smile.
"Grandma, I'm not a greedy cat. I just went to see Sister Xin and the others. Sister Xin brought good things!" Sun Muling said and opened the box on the ground and grabbed a big tomato in her hand.
He showed it to Mrs. Sun, and even took a corn cob and waved it in front of Mrs. Sun's eyes.
"This is really fresh. Let me wash a plate quickly. I, an old woman, want to eat it!" Mrs. Sun laughed and instructed the maid next to her to wash some tomatoes and cherry tomatoes. Then Mrs. Sun
When asked about corn again, Li Xin simply explained.
"We didn't plant much this year, almost all of them were reserved, and we didn't bring much, so just think of it as something new! If Mrs. Sun is interested, she can plant a few plants in the house, just to appreciate the fresh and tender corn.
It's delicious whether it's boiled or fried. When the next crop comes out, I'll definitely send some to the house."
"If you're interested, I still love these strange things. Planting a little in my house is a way to enjoy it firstly, and secondly, I can taste something new. But no one in my house can grow these things, and there are girls to guide them.
Ichiban.”
"It's natural."
After a while, the maid washed some tomatoes and cherry tomatoes and brought them up. Sun Muling grabbed a few cherry tomatoes and started eating them. Mrs. Sun also invited Li Xin and her brothers to eat, and Li Xin also tasted them.
Although I love to eat, I have never stopped eating it at home, so I don’t think it’s too rare.
After sitting for a while, Mrs. Sun sent Sun Muling and Wenbo to go out to play. The servants who were waiting around her also filed out. Mrs. Sun only left Li Xin behind.
"Does the old lady have any instructions?"
"I didn't dare to obey the orders, so I just chatted with Miss Li alone. There are really a lot of novel vegetables in Miss Li's hands, and I, an old woman, are naturally curious. I invited Miss Li to come to the capital this time. I want to use Miss Li's intelligence to do it."
, I must have thought of something. My family is in business, so naturally we hope that the business will get better and better. If Miss Li can continue the transaction with Pinxiangge for a long time, it will be beneficial to both of us."
"The old lady's thoughts are naturally my thoughts. If I didn't have this idea, I wouldn't be at the Sun family today. However, can the old lady have full authority to make the decision regarding Pinxiang Pavilion?"
"To be honest, my wife still has the final say in matters in this house. Since my late husband passed away, the Sun family has been doing well, but in fact it is no longer what it used to be. My two sons are not that talented in business either.
Yes, the eldest son is in charge of the family business on the surface, but the business is getting worse and worse. The younger son is an official outside the country, so he doesn't care about the family affairs. The grandchildren, even though they are not very old, are still doing it.
I need to practice hard! I want my old lady to take charge of this house first. Everyone has something to worry about, and the old lady has been bored for a long time, so she started chatting with Miss Li. Don’t make Miss Li laugh. "
"It's nothing to laugh about. Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. This statement should be universally accepted! I really admire the old lady's character!"
"As I get older, I am no longer able to do many things. Fortunately, my late husband still left behind some loyal and capable old friends, which is a great blessing among misfortunes."
