C40 (1/2)
Just as Spring Grass had said, there were people blocking their way before they even entered the door.
The girl was a woman of about thirty years of age. When she saw them come over, a warm smile appeared on her face. ”I wonder why you two ladies have come here?”
”We are the women of the Marquis Zhong's Mansion, who lives in Ma Village. It is a bit rude to intrude upon us today. Some time ago, we had a maid come over to post a post for Aunt Ruo Chu, but we didn't know that his aunt was never invited.
”Thus, I came here personally today. Actually, there is nothing special about it, but I have my doubts. I have always heard of aunt Hui Ming, so I came here to seek guidance. Does aunt have time?”
The woman who opened the door calmly looked at the two of them, then smiled and said, ”Forgive me for not being able to make the decision. I still have to go in and ask my aunt before I know that I have to trouble the two of you to wait here for a moment.”
”More.” Chu Yuehua hurriedly thanked him.
He suddenly realized that it was normal for his aunt to have feelings for Ma Junjie, but the woman guarding the door knew that her aunt must have been a very polite person.
It was clearly a combination of both taste and taste. No, it was the same!
She just hoped that when she chatted with the aunt later, she wouldn't have to do the same thing with the little old man, Ma Junjie.
He was wearing a lot of clothes. Although the snow had not melted yet, he would not feel cold.
After standing there for a short while, the lady returned. She first opened the door to apologize to the two of them, then said, ”Aunt said to invite the two ladies in. It's cold outside, please move inside.”
Now that they mentioned it was cold outside, why didn't they say it was cold outside when they were waiting outside?
He really was someone with the same moral character as Ma Junjie! Chu Yuehua was a bit worried.
Today, Ruo Chu was wearing a moon-white goose-cloth shirt and the earth dragon was burning in the house, so even if it was this way, it wouldn't feel hot. It was Chu Yuehua and Du Ruo who came in from the outside and couldn't see through it.
She was dressed as a woman and was kneeling on the ground. In front of her was a low table with an exquisite tea set on it.
Her slender jade-like hand was washing the tea in her teacup. Lowering her head, her eyes focused on the painting of a lady hanging on the wall behind her. It looked very similar.
She originally wanted to greet them, but since the moment the two of them entered, she didn't raise her eyes. Chu Yuehua brought Du Ruo and quietly waited there.
At this moment, she suddenly regretted it a little. She didn't know what kind of person her aunt was, nor did she know what kind of relationship they had. Would coming here so rashly only to be humiliated?
In addition to her resounding name, she had a bit of pride.
After the tea was finally divided, Ruojin's aunt made a gesture of invitation, ”This is tea brewed with the snow from the old days, this is for you, young lady.”
This opening was somewhat unexpected, but it wasn't enough to make her lose her composure.
As the saying goes, one should follow the rules of the world. Since she was such a casual person, there was no need for her to follow the rules of the world as a guest.
He took a shallow sip and let out a ”eh” sound.
”Why?” Ruojie asked softly, with a hint of inquiry in her voice.
Chu Yuehua picked up the tea and took another sip, ”If I remember correctly, the first snow of the old year will also come at the end of the winter month. At that time, the flowers have all withered and the plum blossoms have not bloomed. It does not look like a plum flower, but rather the elegance of a lotus. ”
”So Miss Biao really knows how to taste tea.” Aunt Ru Chu took a sip herself and closed her eyes for a while before saying, ”This jar of snow water has been lying in the lotus flower pot all summer just for the sake of waiting for the snow.”
