The happy life of peasant woman Wan Xiaoliu

Chapter 67 Liu Mansion (3)
The uncle was a little at a loss and rubbed his palms.It formed a sharp contrast with Wan Xiaoliu who was drinking tea leisurely.

Taoist Xiangu still had an expression of "I know the inside story", but Wan Xiaoliu couldn't help but roll his eyes inwardly.

After a while, a few people came in from behind, and the voices should be women.

Wan Xiaoliu looked up.Sure enough, it was Mrs. Liu who came. This Mrs. Liu is such a wealthy family, she is so low-key, and there are only three people behind her.

When Mrs. Liu came out, Uncle and Wan Xiaoliu both stood up at the same time.

"Madam Liu." "Madam Liu." Both uncle and nephew saluted politely.

Mrs. Liu helped them down pretendingly, and let them sit down, and sat down on top of them herself.

"Miss Xiaoliu, we are really destined to meet again today." Mrs. Liu said after taking a sip of the tea served by the maid.

"Thank Madam Hong Fu, Xiao Liu has received some extra food, and now he can eat enough." Wan Xiaoliu thought it was better to start with this food.It can bring the distance between two people closer, because they all need to eat food.

"Enen, as long as you can eat enough, as long as you can eat enough." Mrs. Liu seemed to have some feelings, and suddenly lost her composure. The nurse next to her gave her a handkerchief, and she took it and wiped it twice on the corner of her eyes.

"Ma'am, I don't know why Ma'am is sad?" the nurse next to Madam said suddenly.Wan Xiaoliu recognized that this was the nanny who delivered the medicine.

"I made everyone laugh. When I saw this child, I just suddenly remembered that when I was a child, I was born in poverty. I didn't have enough food and clothes. I hoped that one day I would be able to eat enough. Bodhisattva bless me, I met the master, Since following the master, I have escaped from the time when I couldn’t eat enough and couldn’t wear warm clothes. That day in the ancestral hall of Wanjia Village, I saw this child was very kind, so we really have something in common.” Liu Madam said softly.

"Madam is kind and merciful. She will have many children, be rich, and live a long life." Uncle is a farmer, but he can say a few words.

"Are you Miss Xiaoliu's uncle?" Mrs. Liu remembered that Housekeeper Liu had told her in the morning.

"Yes ma'am. Xiaoliu is the only seedling of my younger brother who has been away for many years." The uncle was only sitting on the bench with half of his buttocks, and Wan Xiaoliu was really worried that he would accidentally fall off.

"It's also a poor child. I don't know Uncle Wan. The more I look at Miss Xiaoliu, the happier I am. It's almost noon, so I'll leave you guys for lunch. What do you think? You should have delivered it in time in the morning." Thanks to the little hedgehog who used medicine for my son." Madam Liu spoke in a leisurely manner.Gentle and kind, people can't bear to refuse.

"Thank you Madam for your kindness. Everything will be arranged by Madam." The uncle didn't look at Wan Xiaoliu this time, and he had no scruples, so he agreed.This Young Master Liu's illness is well-known far and near. He doesn't go out all year round and takes medicine every morning, noon and night.As long as it can improve Young Master Liu's illness, Mrs. Liu will go to get it. No matter who sends the medicinal materials or prescriptions, as long as the doctor confirms that it can be used, the Liu family will thank you very much.Therefore, it is reasonable and in line with the style of the Liu family to save a meal today for the medicine of Young Master Liu in the morning.

"Okay, Nanny Yun, go and get the kitchen ready. Get some delicious food. Today is a distinguished guest." Mrs. Liu's appearance made Wan Xiaoliu not feel the slightest bit of pretentiousness.Wan Xiaoliu thought, this Mrs. Liu either has perfect acting skills, or she is really a kind person.

"Miss Xiaoliu, why don't you follow me, let's sit in the gazebo in the backyard, there are pastries and fruits over there." Mrs. Liu saw Wan Xiaoliu's unrestrained appearance, and she really liked it more and more, so she Propose it to Wan Xiaoliu.

"Xiao Liu, it's fortunate that Madam Liu is so respectful, so you can chat with Madam." The uncle looked like a rough man, but he was also rough and delicate.He saw that Mrs. Liu's purpose was very clear, and that was Wan Xiaoliu.

"Oh, thank you Madam, Xiao Liu is just a little hungry." Wan Xiaoliu smiled brightly at Madam Liu.

"Hey, let's go. Manager Liu, sit with Uncle Wan. Madam Yun serves pastries and fruits." Mrs. Liu came over, took Wan Xiaoliu's hand and walked back.

Wan Xiaoliu felt that Mrs. Liu's hands were soft and warm, not as rough and stiff as the old lady's.As for the hand of the mother who died young, there is no memory at all.

Going out from the place where Mrs. Liu entered the house just now, there is another big yard. Wan Xiaoliu wondered how much land the Liu family occupies.From the east side of the yard, you will enter the back garden.Entering a circular door, on both sides are bamboos with black poles.Wan Xiaoliu looked at the bamboo, this was the first time she had seen such a bamboo, it was usually green in color.If I remember correctly, there are also many such bamboos around the rockery where the gate comes in. The bamboos are not high, and the black bamboo poles are accompanied by green leaves, which is very special.

"Xiao Liu, this is purple bamboo, my son Liu Xuan's favorite thing." The understanding Madam Liu explained with a smile when she saw Wan Xiaoliu's curiosity.

"Oh, it's called purple bamboo. It's so beautiful. It's the first time I've seen such a special bamboo." Wan Xiaoliu stretched out his hand to touch these not very tall bamboos that were only two thumbs thick.

"Well, good boy, as long as you like it. There are still many in Xuan'er's yard. You can go in and have a look if you have the chance." The speaker seems to have no intention, but the listener does.This Mrs. Liu seems to be trying to draw her closer to Young Master Liu, so she wouldn't let herself be a concubine for Young Master Liu, right?

Wan Xiaoliu was feeling upset.On the face, he said indifferently: "Thank you Mrs. Liu, Young Master Liu is not in good health and still needs to rest, so I won't bother him."

"You child is really sensible. The more I look at it, the more I like it." Mrs. Liu patted Wan Xiaoliu's hand, and the liking seemed to come from the bottom of her heart.

Behind the two of them, the two servant girls continued to walk forward.After walking a few steps, I entered the promenade supported by grape trellises. The grapes in summer are already purple, and the bunches are very cute. Wan Xiaoliu is drooling a little. I can still eat grapes here. So happy.

"Girl, this is from the Western Regions. It is said to be called happiness fruit. It was brought back by my daughter Xuan'er who is away all the year round. Look over there, that is called kiwi fruit. I will also see this on the mountain in your Wanjia Village." I have been there, it was a few years ago that Xuan'er went to the mountain with his master, he had someone dig it back, and now it grows very lush. This fruit is very sweet after frost." Mrs. Liu introduced it to Wan Xiaoliu one by one. .

"Come, pick some fresh happiness fruits, wash them, and give Xiao Liu a taste." Mrs. Liu instructed the maid behind her.

"It's madam." One of them immediately agreed and left.

Mrs. Liu continued to move forward with Wan Xiaoliu.

"Xiao Liu, look, this lotus blooms beautifully, right?" Mrs. Liu seemed to like the big pond lotus in front of her very much. There are white, pink and red ones.
