108 The Escape of the Ancient Woman (Part II)

"Sister-in-law Gui, you and the housekeeper will sum up the list of temples to pay tribute this year and the pastries needed, and ask the girls to prepare them. Please use this site. That's it, let's go! After Mrs. Shangguan waited for Sister-in-law Gui to arrange and present breakfast, she once again instructed her and the housekeeper at the same time.

"Yes, ma'am!" Sister-in-law Gui and the housekeeper listened to Madame's instructions and replied in unison, and after answering, the two immediately left the main hall and went separately to do what Madame Shangguan ordered.

In about half an hour, the housekeeper and Sister-in-law Gui were carried to the main hall of Shangguan Mansion at the same time with the list of temples that Shangguan Mansion was going to pay tribute this year, and several baskets full of pastries.

"Madam, this is the list of temples that the Shangguan Mansion will pay tribute to this year, and all of them have been counted, please take a look!" After placing the cakes side by side on the floor of the main hall, the butler presented a list of temples written in calligraphy to Mrs. Shangguan, and said to her respectfully.

"Okay, put it here, I'll take a look! Butler, you can go with me to the temple to deliver these pastries later! Sister-in-law Gui, why don't you just go, stay in the house and preside over the housekeeper's housekeeping! Madame Shangguan took the list from the butler's hand and instructed the two of them.

"Yes, ma'am!" The housekeeper and Sister-in-law Gui once again replied in unison to Mrs. Shangguan's words. The housekeeper and Sister-in-law Gui are worthy of being the gold medal stewards in the Shangguan Mansion, and even a simple reply is so humble and polite. No wonder the maids and men up and down the Shangguan Mansion are so respectful and respectful, and the housekeepers and sister-in-law Gui and his wife are usually well-trained to them!

"Amma, Eniang, Wan'er is full!" Ouyang Xinyu put down the chopsticks in her hand and said to Master Shangguan and his wife.

"Okay, Amma has eaten too! Wan'er, come, accompany Ama to the study for a walk, wait for your E-Niang to finish her work here, and let her send Xiaoyue girl to call you! Hearing Ouyang Xinyu say that she was full, Master Shangguan also put down the chopsticks in his hand, picked up the napkin on the dining table and wiped the corners of his mouth, then pushed away the chair and stood up and said to her.

"Wan'er, go with you, Amma! E-Niang is still busy here for a while, wait a minute, ask Xiaoyue to come and call you! Mrs. Shangguan was checking the list with the list, and when she heard the old man say that she wanted Ouyang Xinyu to accompany him to the study, thinking that their father and daughter hadn't talked together for a long time, she stopped what she was doing and said to Ouyang Xinyu.

"Well, Eniang, then you must remember to call me!" Ouyang Xinyu stood up and admonished Mrs. Shangguan, and then followed Master Shangguan's ass and walked towards the study.

"Xiao Cui, don't go with you, stay here and help!" Seeing that Xiaocui was about to walk behind Ouyang Xinyu's buttocks, Mrs. Shangguan suddenly stopped her.

"Yes, ma'am!" Hearing Madame's command, Xiaocui immediately stopped her steps and immediately replied respectfully to Madame.

"Wan'er, do you remember this calligraphy and painting? This painting was done by Amma with you! After arriving at the study, Master Shangguan took Ouyang Xinyu to a piece of "Snow Plum Picture" and stopped, he looked at this calligraphy and painting completed by him and Shangguan Wan'er and asked Ouyang Xinyu.

"Amma, Wan'er doesn't remember! Was this drawn by Wan'er? When was it drawn? Ouyang Xin replied to Master Shangguan with a weak heart, and asked him if she painted it? When was it drawn? The old man took her to the study, and specially brought her to this calligraphy and painting, so that there must be some special meaning in this calligraphy.

"This "Snow Plum Picture" is a painting completed by Ama and Wan'er in the plum garden in the backyard when it snowed heavily in the lunar month last year. This snow plum blossom was painted by Wan'er, and this word was written by Amma! Standing in front of this "Snow Plum Picture", Master Shangguan could see his god, and his thoughts seemed to return to the snowy winter day a year ago.

Last winter, it seemed to be earlier than usual, and the sky was full of white snowflakes. Shangguan Wan'er excitedly ran to the backyard to watch the snow, and she saw that the leaves on the other trees in the backyard had fallen off, and only the plum blossom tree in the center was still standing proudly in the cold wind and snow. Seeing this scene, Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but sigh, why did all the leaves of the other trees have fallen off, but only this plum blossom tree is more enchanting and moving in the wind and snow?

So, she waved her pen and ink, wanting to paint this scene of ice and jade plum. It just so happened that the old man also walked to the backyard to enjoy the snow with nothing to do, and met Shangguan Wan'er painting on Xuemei, so he gave the painting a nice name, called "Xuemei Tu". And, next to the painting, I wrote a small poem about Yongmei.

Master Shangguan finally borrowed this sentence, "The edge of the sword is sharpened from the sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold!" If a person wants to have a proud character or superior talent, he needs to work hard, cultivate, and overcome certain difficulties to achieve it. Just like this plum blossom, it was only through the cold winter that she gave off her alluring fragrance.

"It turns out that this painting was completed by Wan'er and Amma! Then Ama brought Wan'er to this calligraphy and painting, did she want to warn Wan'er about anything? "It turns out that this calligraphy and painting called "Xuemei Tu" was jointly completed by Miss Wan'er and Master Shangguan. However, what is the meaning of the old man who suddenly took her to see this calligraphy and painting? Ouyang Xinyu couldn't help but ask the old man suspiciously.

"Wan'er, you have been talented and intelligent since you were a child, and you have won the love of Ama and Eniang! Ama hopes that no matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, you will be like the plum blossoms in this "Snow Plum Picture", and you will be able to withstand the test of the cold! Master Shangguan said meaningfully to Ouyang Xinyu.

Why did Master Shangguan suddenly say these words to her? Could it be that she and Xiaocui girl's escape plan has been discovered by him? How did I hear the old man say this, as if he knew that she was leaving, and told her to be strong when she was alone.

Actually, Ouyang Xinyu guessed wrong, she was a thief. Master Shangguan thinks that Shangguan Wan'er is about to leave the cabinet, and when she goes to someone else's house in the future, she will be someone else's daughter-in-law, and it is impossible to spoil, love, and love like in his own home and by his parents' side. Therefore, he took the opportunity to remind Ouyang Xinyu that if he went to his mother-in-law's house in the future, no matter what difficulties he encountered, he would be like this plum blossom and withstand the torture of the cold.

"Okay, your E-Niang should have prepared for it! Wan'er, you can go over now, Ama just saw that your mother was not ready to deliberately ask you to come and digest and digest! Seeing that Ouyang Xinyu didn't react, Master Shangguan immediately changed the conversation and pretended to be relaxed and said to her.
