Chapter 61 Gold, Silver, Pearl and Jade

Huan Niang thought for a while: "When I was on the hillside, I saw someone eating meat pies. I heard that the meat pies came from Grandma Cao's craftsmanship in the capital... If there were two meat pies, Huan Niang could consider it."

Huang E patted her sleeves: "Where do I have the money to buy you meat pies?"

Huan Niang smiled and said, "Just just agree."

With a heart-warming attitude, among these girls, no one dared to claim to be the first if Huang E calls herself the second. From Huan Niang's words, she had already heard something strange: "Brother is very saving in life. Why do you think of buying meat pies? You must be instigated."

Huanniang bit her finger and replied: "When you were taking a shower just now, two groups of people came, one from the Huang family store, who came to pay for our embroidery work; the other group was Liu Yaren, who led a few mothers up... My brother said that we will be out of embarrassment in the future, and we will not need to do small things ourselves in the future. He will hire two mothers, one to watch the door, the other to clean the yard, and the toilet.

My brother also said, I am still young, and it is not convenient to live alone in a house. He planned to hire a maid for me. Liu Yaren has already promised to bring someone over tomorrow and let me see him. I told my brother that since he has the money to hire a maid, can you buy two meat pies for me? My brother agreed immediately and asked the woman who just arrived to go out to buy forty meat pies, so we can get two of them. My brother also said, this is not a special example for me. It is really late and it is not convenient to cook dinner, so I buy ready-made food."

Huang E pinched Huan Niang's little face: "Each of us can get two meat pies, but my brother is a man. How can two meat pies be enough? I can't eat that portion, so I have to leave it to my brother, Huan Niang. You just said that you have a small mouth and a small belly, and you can't eat much. Now you have to dominate four meat pies, but you won't be able to hold you to death."

Huan Niang said with a small mouth: "My brother also asked the mother-in-law to buy chickens and ducks, saying that it was stewed chickens and ducks. Huan Niang was a little belly and couldn't help but starve. My sister might as well ask me to eat meat patties first. When the chickens and ducks are ripe, my sister will accompany my brother to share the chickens and ducks. How good? Ah - the chickens and ducks made by my brother are so delicious."

Huang E rubbed Huanniang's head: "The chicken and duck have not been cooked yet. How do you know if it's delicious?"

Huanniang raised her little face and replied: "I heard that my brother asked me to purchase various spices, each spice is about ten kilograms. Ten kilograms of spices can be spread on a duck's head. Ten kilograms of spices, what should the duck make from ten kilograms of spices be like?"

When Huan Niang said this, her throat rolled and she swallowed a gulp.

Huang E smiled and perfunctorily: "Okay, that's it, I'll give you my meat pie."

During the time of speaking, Huang E was wearing the door of the house when she was looking around frequently. The door was closed very tightly, and there was no movement inside.

After receiving Huang E's promise, Huan Niang thought for a while: "Or, I'll share half of your meat pie, you can first fill your stomach, and wait until the chicken and duck are cooked, will you share my duck leg?"

"Okay", Huang E no longer hesitated and pushed open the door she was wearing when she was walking.

When the door opened, Huanniang stood there and shouted: "Brother, I've informed me."

After saying that, Huan Niang didn't get up and continued to stay in the corridor and play.

Now the ground in the yard is covered with bluestone slabs, and the road is very neat. After the rain, the swallows flew around the yard, and from time to time fell on the slabs, pecking at the recesses of the slabs. The appearance of the little neck stretching toward the sky and singing made Huan Niang see it. She didn't pay attention to the movements inside the house at all.

When I walked into the house, the floor was covered with petals and flowers picked by girls. But these flowers that had been covered all night could hardly smell any fragrance, but instead had a slightly moldy smell.

Huang E carefully walked around the petals on the ground and thought to herself: Brother hangs these flowers on the floor, probably wanting to use them, but these...ah.

He walked carefully to the bedroom door and knocked on it. There was still no movement inside. Huang E pushed it gently and pushed open a crack in the door. Looking through the crack, there was no one in the room, but there was a golden light flashing on the bed, dazzling and dazzling.

Huang E was anxious and tried a little force in her hand. The bedroom door was pushed open halfway. After Huang E stepped on the threshold, she paused for a moment, turned around and returned to the door, and looked into the yard with her clamp. She found that Huan Niang was still standing in the porch, tilting her head, watching the swallows pecking mud intently - a light rain made the soil soak, and the earthworms had to climb onto the ground and breathe on the stone slabs. I don’t know which swallow bird discovered this situation. A few chirping sounds, and suddenly, a large group of swallow birds flew over and pecked the yard, making Huan Niang feel stunning.

Huang E quietly covered the door and came back to the bedroom door. She pushed the bedroom door again and was shocked - Shizhan was clearly in the room, and he was standing in front of the bed wearing a long gown and belt!

Did I read it wrong just now?

With such questions, Huang E gently walked into the house. Shi Chuan turned his back to her, but when Huang E entered the house, he did not stop the movement, but just raised his chin to the thing on the bed, saying, "If you like, take it."

Huang E shook her head, remembering that she had not cleaned her hair after taking a shower. She walked to the bed with her hair loose, and saw that the bed was covered with jewelry made of gold, silver, pearls and jade. Huang E seemed to have her eyes glittered for a moment. She picked up a hairpin and chuckled: "I'm afraid this is not worn by Taoist nuns. The court has a system. This style of hairpin can only be worn by a wife of fifth grade or above."

Shi Chuan didn't pay attention to Huang E's words, so he tied his belt and whispered to himself: "What's wrong? Strange, what force was disturbing me just now?"

Huang E was standing in front of the bed, now he turned his back to Shi Meng, and Shi Meng was facing the bed, facing the bedroom door, tidying up his clothes. Huang E tilted her head and listened to Shi Meng's speech. Hearing the footsteps of Shi Meng behind her, walking to the table, the sound paused, and seemed to have sat down. Then, she heard several fingers knocking on the table continuously, making a striking sound. She quietly lowered her head and quickly packed up the hairpins one by one. When she finished her work, she heard that there was no movement behind her back, and she turned around and rushed through a bow.

"Brother, the things have been divided into eighteen piles, each pile of which is about the same value. It is not convenient for me to send them to people if I give them to them, so I will just keep them together - I'd better hide them."

Shi Chuan nodded absent-mindedly: "There are still a bunch of gold and silver objects in the quilt, all of which are small Buddha statues made of gold and silver. I think they are very well-made and are reluctant to melt them and exchange them for money. You can also clean up and take out some inconspicuous ones, each person will share them, and then choose some statues with the worst craftsmanship, we will melt them and repay the debt."

Huang E looked through the hairpins in her hand and reminded: "Brother, these hairpins have marks on them. These marks are usually used to "insert hairpins" when the husband gets engaged, but the Taoist nun cannot get married. These are probably left in the yard when the wife burns incense, or they are simply hidden by the Taoist nuns while they are unprepared. If these hairpins are also distributed, the brother needs to wipe these marks off in advance."
