Chapter 16

Now, the brothers and sisters-in-law of the Hui family have officially conveyed Hui Yimei's wishes to the Lin family... Although the Lin family has not responded positively, Hui Yimei knows that since this matter has been brought to the fore, at least she will not act like this again. In her previous life, she married in such a muddled manner.

That night, she finally had a good night's sleep.

The next day, when Hui Yimei woke up, she could vaguely smell the fragrance of magnolia flowers.

She was lying on the bed, looking out of the slightly closed window...

There was a tall magnolia tree in the yard, and the branches were already covered with white buds. At this time, the morning breeze was blowing slowly, sending bursts of flower fragrance into her room.

After stretching, Hui Yimei finally sat up lazily.

The early morning at the end of May was still a little cold, but she didn't want to move, so she lay on the edge of the bed and tried to reach for the shawl on the round stool.

Xiaohong heard the movement and ran in hastily.

"Miss! You're finally awake. It's already past nine o'clock. If you don't wake up again... I will wake you up! Miss, have you forgotten that there will be a distinguished guest at home today! Do you know what time this distinguished guest will come..." Xiaohong was nagging, and she stood up while helping Huiyi to raise her eyebrows.

In fact, Hui Yimei doesn't want to get up yet.

She slept very comfortably last night, her whole body was soft, and now she just wants to put on a shawl and continue to laze on the bed and read a book for a while.

... But, it's past nine o'clock now? !
Hui Yimei had no choice but to get up, change clothes, and wash up under Xiao Hong's service; then, Xiao Hong brought a bowl of noodles over.

Probably the people in the kitchen got up early in the morning and prepared the breakfast for each room, but by now, the noodles had long been cold and turned into a bowl of batter.

Hui Yi stared straight at the bowl of batter.

"Xiaohong, go to the back door to see if there is any seller of soy milk and fried fruit," she confessed, "well, take some money, after buying soy milk and fried fruit, see if there are any other snacks Son, buy some more. My mother, brother and sister-in-law will send some over, and we will keep some in the house, and I will read in the afternoon!"

Xiaohong responded, went to the box to get some money out, and put down the noodles.

Not long after, Xiaohong brought up a maid, who was holding breakfast bought for sister Hui Yi in her hand; the servant was holding a bulging burden cloth, which might be a snack bought by Xiaohong...

Hui Yi raised her eyebrows, "Please trouble this mother, Xiaohong, you can give her two copper coins... No, don't refuse, buy some candy and give it to the children at home!"

The maid took the two copper coins and went downstairs with gratitude.

Hui Yimei was in a good mood, sitting at the table drinking fragrant stone-ground soybean milk and eating crispy fried fruits, while teasing Xiaohong, "...you brought back all the things from other dim sum shops Right? They opened early in the morning, and you took all the things, do you still want to do business?"

Xiaohong also laughed, "How else can we say that the population in our mansion is thriving? We have to buy six dim sums for one piece of dim sum in this room..."

"What did you buy? Open it up and let me have a look." Hui Yimei asked while eating.

Xiaohong opened the furoshiki.

There are white and soft chain cakes, emerald green mung bean cakes, halva with rose petals, yellow crab roe cakes and black sesame walnut cakes...

Looking at the beautiful and exquisite pastries, Hui Yimei suddenly became interested, and told Xiaohong, "Go to the kitchen and ask for some plates, remember to look for black plates, if you don't have them, agate color ones are fine, no matter what …It doesn’t matter if it’s dark or plain, do you understand?”

Xiaohong responded, turned around and was about to go downstairs.

Hui Yi raised her eyebrows again, "Hey, that's right! The magnolias in the yard are blooming well. You can ask your mothers to pick a dozen or twenty flowers for you. Fresh ones, fully bloomed ones, some with branches and leaves. I am useful!"

Xiaohong responded again.

When Hui Yimei finished her breakfast leisurely, Xiao Hong hurried up with the plates in her arms and a basket in her elbow, "Miss, take a look, can these plates work?"

Hui Yimei looked at the blue and white porcelain shallow mouth plate that Xiaohong brought.

There are no pure plain plates at home, but this blue and white porcelain shallow plate is also quite beautiful.

Hui Yimei nodded, and asked Xiaohong to pack the breakfast she had finished; she started to put the snacks on a shallow plate... After trying patiently for a long time, she finally felt satisfied, but this The plate of pastries was also ruined by her.

She didn't care, and put the plate of snacks directly on the other side.

Next, she placed five identical plates on the table, and began to put various pastries on the plates in the order just now...Pile up those white, green, yellow, red, and black pastries; then, She took another look at the small bamboo basket that Xiaohong brought up, and found that there were more than a dozen pure white and fresh magnolia flowers in it.

Hui Yimei chose a few magnolias that were in full bloom, and passed the flowers through the water with the cool white on the table. After drying the water, she carefully placed the flowers on the edge of the porcelain plate, followed by I also folded a few fresh green leaves and placed them next to the flowers for decoration.

Xiaohong went upstairs "clumsily", and when she entered the room and saw such an exquisite and beautiful arrangement, her eyes were straightened.

"Miss! You... this, hey! This dessert is also common, and our family can also make it, but it takes a little effort, but... being dressed up like this by you, this dessert is too beautiful!" Xiaohong said in surprise , "Even our family's restaurant in the county town doesn't have such a beautiful dim sum plate!"

Hui Yi pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Hurry up and send these dim sums to your mother and sister-in-law's house...Hey, be careful when walking, don't spill the dim sum!"

Xiaohong nodded, "Miss, don't worry, I'll put it in a food box, it won't spill!"

Saying that, Xiaohong ran to deliver snacks again.

Hui Yi picked up a piece of mung bean cake and stood by the window, eating slowly, staring at the magnolia tree in the yard in a daze...

Not long after, Xiaohong ran back excitedly.

"Miss, the old lady, the eldest lady, the second wife, the third wife, and the fourth wife, they all praised you for your ingenuity and gave me a lot of gifts...Look!" Xiaohong rummaged through all the things in her pockets come out.

Hui Yimei turned her head to take a look.

In Xiaohong's handkerchief lay a few copper plates, a few crystal candies wrapped in plastic paper, and a few shiny metal buttons.

Hui Yi raised her eyebrows, "Take it!"

Xiaohong first responded loudly, and then whispered, "The buttons given by the Fourth Wife are really beautiful. You can make a hair tie by knotting these buttons on a rope...it must be very beautiful..."

Hui Yimei looked at her and smiled slightly.

Xiaohong is a simple and simple person, she can be happy all day with little things.

But the marriage contract between himself and Lin Yuehong didn't know how long it would last...

Xiaohong has served Hui Yimei personally for a long time, so she can naturally feel the young lady's sudden depression.

After thinking for a while, Xiaohong suggested, "Miss, why don't we go for a walk in the yard? Just now I saw that the jasmine flowers in the yard are blooming just right, let's pick some up, and it's half-dried. I'll make Longjing tea for you this afternoon." When it was time, just like you did last time, put a few jasmine flowers in it...the green tea with white flowers, it looks good and tastes good, and you can drink it comfortably."

Hui Yimei readily agreed.

The master and servant went downstairs one after another.

Hui's house is actually not that big, it's just a courtyard where a junior enters.The first entrance behind the gate used to be the sedan chair, but now it has been turned into a flower hall; the second entrance is Brother Hui's site, the living room is on the left, and the big study is on the right, where he usually handles housework; The main room is the residence of the old lady, the fourth brother Hui's family lived in the west wing, and the third brother Hui's family lived in the east wing.Next to it is a larger two-storey building. Brother Hui's family lived on the first floor, guest rooms on the second east floor, and second brother Hui's family lived on the west second floor...

And Hui Yimei's independent small attic is a two-story independent building in the small garden after the third entrance; behind her small attic is the flat-roofed room where the servants live, and then the Some are large kitchens and stables.

In fact, the small garden is not very big, except for the magnolia tree in the middle, there is not even a rockery in the yard; however, the servants neatly arranged all kinds of beautiful potted flowers in the open space and under the wall, which is very interesting to watch. Seductive.

The master and the servant picked more than a dozen jasmine flowers, Hui Yimei was reluctant to pick any more, and said enough; seeing that the magnolia flowers in the yard were really blooming beautifully, she thought about the housekeeper who bought a bathtub yesterday, and now the bathtub is under her care. In the clean room, now pick some magnolia flowers and go home, so I can take a petal bath when I take a bath at night, so I let Xiaohong find a way to pick some magnolia flowers.

Xiaohong went to the maid and asked for a cutting knife tied to a thin bamboo pole, and obeyed the young lady's instructions, and picked whichever flower the young lady told her to pick.

Hui Yimei stood under the magnolia tree with a small bamboo basket, bent down to pick up the magnolia flowers that Xiao Hong had cut off with a cutter...

The second elder brother of the Hui family walked into the backyard of Hui's house accompanied by a tall, handsome young man.

I saw a magnolia tree full of pure white flowers standing in the backyard.

But the most eye-catching one is a beauty in ancient costume standing under the tree wearing a moon-white top, an apricot red skirt, and a pink cloak behind her.Although the distance was a bit far, and the beauty's facial features could not be seen clearly, her quiet and dignified appearance made the man stunned.

In her hand was a small bamboo basket full of flowers...

With a slight breeze, a magnolia flower fell from her bamboo basket to the ground.

She hurriedly bent down to pick it up, and she only felt that her body was light and graceful; and as she bent down, her long hair, which was as soft and shiny as oil, slipped down from her shoulders...

She picked up the magnolia flower that fell on the ground, brushed the broken hair that fell on her beautiful cheek, and then smiled and said a few words to the maid beside her...

The young man stared blankly at the peerless beauty in white and red dress.

The second elder brother Hui who was by the man's side naturally had a panoramic view of the man's bewildered expression.

He thought about it, as if thinking about it.

Brother Hui suddenly smiled slightly, and called out to the beauty, "...Yimei? What are you doing?"

Hui Yi raised her eyebrows and turned her head.

Her eyes widened suddenly.

Although she hadn't seen her second brother for several years, and the second brother in front of her had a rosy face, her hair was neatly combed to the point of meticulousness, and she was a bit middle-aged, but she could still recognize her.

But, who is that man standing next to the second brother?

Hui Yi eyebrows looked at that person suspiciously, only feeling that this person looked very familiar.

After a while, she finally came to her senses.

he is……

Al Henry?
Why is he in her home?
