Rebirth cannon fodder

Chapter 18 Jiang Gui
What she pursues is also the pursuit of women in this era, just a good husband and son-in-law... But in this era, especially for women from wealthy families like them, where do you get to know each other? What fine boy?
Besides, most women in this era get married and have never seen what their husbands and sons-in-law look like before they get married--the same is true for men.Before taking off the hijab, women are worried about their husbands, and they are afraid that they will not be virtuous when they marry, so why don't men worry about marrying an ugly monster!
Thinking about it this way, Xu Manzhen's original worries about Xu Shuzhen turned into dissatisfaction with this era, and she also felt that maybe she had another way to solve this problem instead of going to the house to fight endlessly.She is not afraid of Xu Shuzhen, nor is she afraid of house fights, but the experience of later generations makes her look down on this kind of fight like a frog in a well.

There is no rule in any family that says that when there is a concubine daughter, it is not allowed to accept the concubine daughter as the concubine daughter.Their interests do not conflict at all.

Since Xu Shuzhen doesn't conflict with her own interests, why should she be like a red-eyed rooster, arguing endlessly with Xu Shuzhen all day long?
Maybe I can get along well with Xu Shuzhen and be a pair of sisters!

I just want to make it clear to Xu Shuzhen that "The Analects of Women" and other things should not be sent to me anymore... It's really not good-looking at all.

"Bai Xin, when Xu Shuzhen came here in the morning, what gift did you give?" Xu Manzhen asked.

"A box of snacks." Bai Xin took it and handed it to her young lady.

Hmph, there have been rumors all day long in the mansion that the Second Miss would throw away the presents from the Third Miss every time...but she didn't!The people in the mansion like to spread rumors all day long, and if she meets someone who spreads rumors about the second young lady next time, she will tear her mouth apart!

"Please help her, this dessert is so delicate." Xu Manzhen frowned and looked at the things inside the box, small pieces, fragrant and beautiful in shape, white and crystal clear, green and emerald green. It also looks waxy and soft and moist... But why does she seem to have never seen such a dim sum?
Speaking of which, although she was not very famous in her previous life, she still had a certain reputation in the circle, and besides, she earned a lot of money, what good food did she not eat?But the little snack in front of her stumped her.

"Bai Xin..." Xu Manzhen hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "I seem to have forgotten even this snack... What is this?" For some reason, the strange fragrance made her feel very sick and uncomfortable.

Is there something wrong with this dessert?Could it be that Xu Shuzhen wanted to drug herself?Could it be that she is such a person?Was my speculation just now all wrong?
But, is Xu Shuzhen so stupid?If she doesn't eat this pastry, how can she hurt herself?Made a fuss?

"This one..." Bai Xin moved her head up, looked at it carefully, took a deep breath, and sighed, "It smells so good."

Xu Manzhen's hair suddenly turned black.Why does Bai Xin find it very fragrant when she smells something unpleasant?
"Take a piece and see...don't eat too much, just take a small bite." Xu Manzhen ordered, but she was afraid that there might be laxatives in the pastry, so she added another sentence.

Bai Xin nodded, summoned up her courage, picked up a piece of white pastry, bravely took a small bite from the corner...

"It's delicious!" Bai Xin said with a sigh, "Miss San's craftsmanship is really good. Although this lard cake is a very common thing, I have never seen such a delicate and beautiful one, and the taste is better than usual. , there must be too much lard!"

Lard cake!Xu Manzhen's head suddenly turned black.Xu Shuzhen came to visit a patient, what would she do with a box of lard cake?Shouldn't people who have just recovered from illness eat lightly?
Moreover, Xu Manzhen glanced at the box of pastries with disgust, pastries made of lard...how can I eat them?What a disgusting person!

"Delicious?" Xu Manzhen covered her nose with her hand, "Do you like it?"

"Delicious!" Bai Xin quickly finished the piece of pastry in her hand, still sucking her fingers, and said aftertaste, "It's delicious!"

"Then I'll give you this box of snacks, take it and eat it." Xu Manzhen waved her hand, signaling her to take it away quickly.

"Second Miss, don't you want to eat?" Bai Xin asked in surprise, "Third Miss specially gave it to you."

"I don't have a good appetite right now, just ask the kitchen to make some light rice porridge for me." Bai Xin smiled weakly, if she didn't take this box of pastries away, she would spit it out.

Bai Xin happily agreed, went out with the box of pastries, and separated with the other little girls in the yard.

"Is this really what Miss gave to us?" Yueju, the sweeping girl, asked doubtfully.The box of snacks in front of her strongly attracted her sense of taste, and she couldn't stop drooling, but she couldn't believe that such a good thing would happen, "In the past, there was something that the second lady couldn't eat, and she would rather throw it away than share it. Pass!"

"If you continue to say such things to discredit Miss, I really won't let you eat!" Facing the little girls in front of him, Bai Xin naturally showed the majesty of being a big girl, and besides, Miss Dim Sum clearly said that it was a reward. What I ate, I kindly took it out and shared it. This little girl still doesn't know how to say such things, can she not be angry?
A person as good as Second Miss, but with such a bad reputation in the mansion, must be discredited by these little girls who don't know what to do!
The little girl Baozhang quickly pulled Yueju, and Yueju also knew her senses, so she immediately fell silent.

Although I don't know why the lady has changed like this, but for them, this is a good thing, and there is no need to go against the good thing.

Besides, this lard pastry looks delicious at first glance, it's a pity not to eat it!
"Remember, our young lady is a very, very good person, if I hear someone speak ill of the second young lady in the mansion in the future, don't blame me for being rude!" Bai Xin warned.

A group of little girls nodded repeatedly for the sake of dim sum.

"Big sister Baixin," Bai Xin, as the existence above everyone in this yard, is naturally flattered by some people, and some people can see Bai Xin's thoughts, so Baozhang followed Bai Xin's intention and moved up and down from the cakes in front of him. Kung Fu, "These cakes are really delicious, where did they come from? Was it made by Mrs. Ding in the kitchen?"

"Sister-in-law Ding can make lard cakes, but she can't make such exquisite patterns." Bai Xin is actually a very simple person, and she won't praise Sister-in-law Ding against her will just because she is her own sister-in-law. He told the truth, "This is given by the third lady when she came to visit the second lady."

"Third Miss came to see Second Miss's illness, did you send lard cake?" Suddenly, someone among the little girls asked in surprise, "Second Miss didn't throw anything out today?"

"What are you talking about?" Bai Xin's face immediately became difficult to look at.

"No...not..." The little girl immediately defended herself hastily, "Sister Baixin, what I mean is that people who just recover from a serious illness can't smell heavy oil, Miss San knows that This is common sense, why would you send such a greasy snack?"

Isn't this a bet that the second lady can't eat?Moreover, although Sister Baixin didn't let them speak, they knew it in their hearts. If the second young lady were to behave like this, if something like this happened, someone would definitely throw this snack out...

At that time, who cares what is thrown out?It can only be said that the second miss was ill, and the third miss went to visit her with the snacks she made herself, but the things were thrown away...

Hasn't this happened a few times before?Could it be that every time the second lady gets angry, there is something inside?
But why did the second lady not throw it away this time, but gave it to them to share?Could it be that Second Miss has become smarter?
"That little girl, what's your name?" Xu Manzhen stood in front of the window and called out to the little girls in the yard, "Come here."

The little girl walked to the window with trepidation, and replied in a low voice: "Miss Jin, my servant...my servant's name is Jiang Gui..."

If I had known that I was going to keep my mouth shut just now, Second Miss is not an ordinary master. Although Bai Xin seemed to admire her very much, but I have been with Second Miss for a longer time, what kind of person is she to Second Miss? , that is clear.

But what to do now?

"You seem to be very afraid of me?" Xu Manzhen sighed softly in her heart. The original body was really a big pig, and she was so stupid that she had nothing to do to impress the little girls in her yard. There is no one who is willing to help her...

Just like now, I just asked a little girl to ask a few words, and I scared her like this...

"Second Miss... Nu Maid... Nu Maid didn't..." The little girl Jiang Gui hastily denied.

"You still said no, your voice is trembling." Xu Manzhen sighed heavily, suddenly feeling very bored.

"Don't be afraid, I just heard what you said just now, people who are recovering from a serious illness should eat light food... How do you know?" Xu Manzhen asked, staring at the little girl in front of her.

She was very curious about this little girl.Although this is just a very simple common sense of life, in this era, ordinary people are completely illiterate, so naturally there is no way to get knowledge from books.If you want to know something, you must either experience it yourself, or you must hear it from others.

"Because the maidservant's mother was ill once, and after she got well, the maidservant boiled a pot of chicken soup, but the mother said she couldn't drink it, and said she couldn't stand the greasy smell." Jiang Gui replied respectfully.

"How old are you, can you cook chicken soup?" Xu Manzhen was really convinced. The little girl in front of her didn't look ten years old. She usually did some rough work in the yard, but she didn't expect that she could cook!
