Chapter 114: Mrs. Yan's Arrangements

Seeing Li Dong frowning slightly as he looked at the two bunches of red gold flowers and fruits, Manqing hurriedly smiled and said: "Back to Madam Six, these are what Madam prepared. She brought them over last night and they are all in that box. I

I picked a bunch for Lady Nine to use first."

"Sister, there are new clothes." Li Xia pointed to two thick piles of new clothes next to her, one for her and the other for Li Dong.

Li Dong was a little hesitant. There were so many clothes and jewelry, which were too expensive. How could he randomly collect other people's things? There were so many, and it didn't seem to be a good idea...

"In November, Madam was making clothes for the Fourth Lady and the Seventh Lady. When she saw a piece of material, she thought the Ninth Lady would look good in it, so she hurriedly asked someone to make them." Man Qing looked at Li Dong's expression and kept talking.

She explained with a smile: "The Seventh Lady picked these two pieces for the Ninth Lady and the Fifth Lady, and the Fourth Lady picked these two pieces for the Ninth Lady. When the Seventh Lady was resting yesterday, she even asked Sister Haitang,

Today I must give Lady Nine the two pieces she picked out."

"I like this one." Li Xia pointed to the Begonia Red dress among the two items picked out by the Seventh Lady. She remembered clearly that Begonia Red was the favorite color of the Seventh Lady, Li Wennan, and she regarded her as her favorite color.

I chose the color I liked and gave it to her.

Although Li Dong still felt that it was very inappropriate to accept so many expensive clothes and jewelry, even if he accepted it, he shouldn't get on it immediately. But firstly, she had a soft temper, and secondly, this was her uncle's house after all, so she was not sure about her

Are those feelings that shouldn't be accepted, because many of those teachings came from Mrs. Zhong, but now what Mrs. Zhong said seems to be wrong... She was a little at a loss for a while.

Li Xia put on the begonia red dress and the same color jacket, which made her look extraordinarily pink and beautiful.

Li Dong was hesitant, so he didn't wear the new clothes prepared by Mrs. Yan, and asked Su Ye to take out the one that had not yet been worn out of the two new clothes brought from home and put it on.

The two of them went out to the upper room. Mrs. Xu had already packed up. Li Wenlan slept for a while and had just come out of the clean room. She was yawning and sitting upright, combing her hair with Haitang.

Mrs. Xu asked Su Ye to see if Li Wenshan was up in the front yard. As soon as she finished speaking, Man Qing said with a smile: "Go back to the third wife, the fifth master got up half an hour ago, and together with the fourth master, they said they were going horse racing."

, Madam just sent someone over to convey the message, saying please rest assured, Third Madam, Madam has already selected a suitable entourage to follow."

Mrs. Xu looked at Li Dong and laughed angrily, "Look at your brother, he didn't ride enough on this horse yesterday, and he went horse racing again this early in the morning."

"I heard Fifth Brother say once that riding a horse is not considered riding a horse, but running a horse is riding a horse." Li Dong explained for the Fifth Brother.

Mrs. Xu smiled as she watched Li Wenlan pack up, lead him, and take Li Dong and Li Xia out. The woman Mrs. Yan sent to invite Mrs. Xu and others to have breakfast in the flower hall was already waiting at the door.

Mrs. Yan held Li Wenlan's hand, and Li Dong held Li Xia's hand, and they went to the flower hall together.

Seeing Mrs. Xu and others coming from a distance, the Fourth Lady Li Wenfang and the Seventh Lady Li Wennan hurriedly left the flower hall to greet them all the way.

The seventh lady ran ahead holding up her skirt. She looked at Li Xia, who was wearing Begonia Red, and immediately beamed with joy, "I knew that Sister Ninth would look good in this Begonia Red, and I knew that Sister Ninth would definitely like this Begonia Red! Give it to Third Aunt

Hello, Sixth Sister! Ninth Sister, come here, I will hold your hand."

The Seventh Lady and Mrs. Xu greeted Li Dong and stretched out their hands to pull Li Xia.

Li Dong let go, and the Seventh Lady pulled Li Xia, tilted her head and looked at her and smiled, and Li Xia also looked up at her and smiled.

During this trip to Jiangning Mansion, the most important thing for Li Xia was to learn from the Seventh Lady how to be a six or seven-year-old lady.

The Fourth Lady, Li Wenfang, greeted Mrs. Xu and Li Dong in a polite manner. She looked at each other holding hands as they walked. She glanced at Li Wennan and Li Xia who were smiling and said with disdain, "Look at you."

Both of them are just like fools."

Li Wennan ignored her at all and just pulled Li Xia forward, "Axia, let's go quickly. Auntie said, after dinner, she will take us to Qixia Temple to play. We will eat vegetarian food at Qixia Temple at noon, so we should have more breakfast.

Meat!"

"Okay!" Li Xia agreed happily and followed Li Wennan into the flower hall.

"And me!" Li Wenlan threw away Mrs. Xu and ran forward behind Li Wennan and Li Xia, "I also eat more meat, just meat!"

Mrs. Yan had already come out to welcome Li Wennan and Li Xia. She smiled at Mrs. Xu and said, "Look, I am three years older than A Xia. Look, I am not good at shopping either. I see.

I'm not as sensible as Axia."

Mrs. Xu felt a lot more relaxed as Li Wennan and Li Xia chatted, laughed, ran and jumped. When Mrs. Yan said this, she laughed, "They are still young. It will be fine when they grow up."

Mrs. Xu said, looking at Li Dong who was following her with great satisfaction.

"I have no choice but to think so." Mrs. Yan also looked at Li Dong, laughed, and entered the flower hall with Mrs. Xu.

After a quick breakfast and tea, Mrs. Yan said with a smile: "We will go to Qixia Temple to celebrate the occasion later. We will have a vegetarian meal at Qixia Temple at noon. If we come back early in the afternoon, we will go to Confucius Temple for a tour. You

What do you think?"

Mrs. Xu nodded hurriedly, "It's all up to my sister-in-law."

"Then that's it for today. Tomorrow we will go to the Tang family to pay a visit to the third old lady." Mrs. Yan saw that Mrs. Xu looked confused and obviously did not understand the meaning of this arrangement, so she explained calmly: "You also know,

The Tang family has produced two or three imperial masters. They are among the most scholarly masters in Jiangnan and can be compared with the Gu family.

In the past, when the third old lady was alive, the eldest father had been educated under the third old lady. The third old lady’s tutor was the third old lady’s son, who is now the Minister of Punishments of the Tang Dynasty.

The third old lady is now seventy-eight years old. She has been practicing hermitage all year round and rarely sees outsiders.

Tang Shangshu couldn't leave, so every year he sent his son and daughter-in-law to accompany the old lady to celebrate the New Year. This year, Grandma Gu, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Tang family, came here with her children. When Qianer heard that you were coming, Grandma Gu originally said she would come to visit.

Where can we get her to visit us? It would be better for us to go over there. It would be better if we could see the third old lady and say hello."

Mrs. Xu now fully understood that this Tang family was the Tang family that was once known as the first family in Jinling. The master often mentioned Tang Shangshu, the imperial master who admired him very much. She hurriedly leaned over and agreed, "Thank you, sister-in-law.

Sister-in-law, thank you for your trouble."
