Chapter 51
When the fake Jia Yu slowly went to Jinling by boat, and the real Jia Yu settled in a certain Zhuangzi outside Jinling City, after the Jinling Ziwei Sheren, in the courtyard of the Xue family, as if they were playing hide and seek, almost most of the subordinates mobilized to find the little son of the Xue family who didn't know where to hide.
The Xue family said that they were no strangers to this scene, and they felt that they would come every once in a while.
But this time, it's about ...... Yan zhòng some?
The cause this time is Xue Yan (a), the youngest son of the Xue family named Brother Xiang, who made a big joke yesterday.
said that the head wife of the Xue family, Xue Wang, she has an older sister who married the second master Jia of Rongguo Mansion in the capital. The two sisters, one south and one north, have always exchanged letters.
Yesterday, Xue Wang's family received a letter from the Jia Wang family in the capital. Whenever there is a letter from a relative, Xue Yan must read it to Xue Wang, and yesterday was no exception.
I don't know what this letter says, reading it, Xue Wang asked Xue Yan with a smile, do you want a brother or sister?
Unexpectedly, Xue Yan, who had been stunned for a long time, came back to his senses and said, "...... I already have a sister. ”
In this Jinling City, who doesn't know that Xue Zheng, the head of the Xue family, and his wife, Xue Wang, only have two sons-in-law and no daughters-in-law?
Besides, if you ask a child whether he wants a younger brother or a younger sister, all parents have asked. But there is no child, like Xue Yan, who will say "I have a sister" with confidence.
-- As the saying goes, good things don't go out, and things are known to the government. Xue Yan's "fairy tales" spread throughout the Xue Mansion at an extraordinary speed, making the whole mansion so happy that they couldn't close their mouths.
No, Xue Xiaogongzi, who amused everyone, lost his temper early this morning, and hid somewhere in the house "according to custom".
Although it is at home, how can it not run outside, but Xue Wang's two sons are always doting and pampering, even if Xue Xiaogongzi's peek-a-boo activities have become the norm, she is still afraid that something will happen to her baby son, and she urgently ordered people to find it.
The subordinates unanimously slandered: It's because of his wife that the little master has nothing to do to play peek-a-boo, right?
"Young Master Xiang! Young Master Xiang!" two maids around eleven or twelve years old called Xue Yan's name in the Xue family's garden.
At this time, the garden was full of purple and red, but the two maids in the middle had no intention of watching.
These two maids are the big maids beside Xue Yan. The one who wears lotus lotus color clothes is called a cicada, and the other one who wears sea blue is called a sea cat.
The sea cat and the cicada had been looking for almost half a morning, and they were a little tired at this time.
The sea cat called the chilling cicada who was slightly older than her and said, "Sister chilling cicada, Young Master Xiang must be ruthless this time......, right?
said that he found it, but it was just that Xue Yan didn't hide and took the initiative to run out.
"But this time, Young Master Xiang, what a joke!" the sea cat thought about it, and laughed again, "It's not like him at all!"
In other words, as the second son of the Xue family, Xue Yan has just turned three years old this year, but he is notoriously precocious. Although he has not yet reached the full moon and can speak of the first year of poetry, whether he learns to walk or speak, he learns everything faster than others anyway.
Even Mr. Xixi Chen, who enlightened Xue Yan and invited him by his family, praised him for his talent and intelligence, and he was a talent that could be created.
And what is as famous as Zaohui is Xue Yan's naughty and naughty.
If the eldest young master is a "little overlord", then the second young master is a full "demon king of the mixed world".
Which of the top and bottom of the Xue Mansion has not been tricked by the second young master? The eldest young master is the first to bear the brunt, and he is teased in various ways every day -- making his wife worry about whether the two brothers can get along in harmony.
So this time, it was the second young master Xue Yan, who usually made people laugh, and made a big joke by himself - this stark contrast made the Xue Mansion unable to suppress the schadenfreude in their hearts.
Seeing that the sea cat was still smiling, the cicada glanced at the other party and said lightly: "You are still smiling, let Young Master Xiang know, and I will give you a good meal." ”
Hearing this, the sea cat quickly covered its mouth, and subconsciously felt that the back of its neck was cold.
Yes, their young master Xiang is the most rewarding!
The sea cat seems to be able to foresee that the person who made fun of the second young master today will definitely not have a good time in the future!
I thought so, but the sea cat was born to be forgetful, and it didn't take long for him to let go of it. She quietly tugged at the cicada's sleeve and said mysteriously:
"Sister, do you think Aunt Ah Cheng is right, that is, the second young master is actually ...... Hit that dirty stuff?"
It is said that children have bright eyes and can easily see some "things" that adults can't see. After the old servants laughed, they secretly tasted something different:
As mentioned above, the master of the Xue family only has a brother and no sister, but why does the little master swear that he has a sister......?
The cicada twisted his willow eyebrows and shouted: "Sea cat!"
The sea cat shrunk its neck, a little unconvinced, and said, "Why are you scolding me? I'm not the only one who said it, it's spread all over the house!"
The cold cicada poked the sea cat's forehead with his finger, "You little hooves still have the guts to make trouble? This kind of thing can you and I say? When I saw it, I angered my wife, will I spare you!"
At the mention of his wife, the sea cat panicked. She called out in a pitiful voice, "Sister Cicada!"
"Alright. "Is the other party really pitiful or pretending to be pitiful, can the cicada know?" For the people next to me, I will also ask the housekeeper grandfather to help take care of it first, so as not to really anger my wife when I get it. ”
The sea cat nodded vigorously as she listened.
"And you!" Han Cicada said again, "How many times have I told you, don't always quietly read those strange novels to Young Master Xiang!"
The sea cat lowered its head in fright, but still muttered quietly: "But, but Young Master Xiang, does he like to listen......"
The chill laughed. After laughing, I was a little complicated.
Although the government always praised Young Master Xiang's early wisdom, they all said that this was a good thing.
But Han Cicada saw that Young Master Xiang was young, as if he was preoccupied, and he always felt that he didn't know what to do.
The "joke" made yesterday made Young Master Xiang show a bit of his true temperament.
At the worst, it's not all bad, is it?......
And the center of the topic of the two maids, the cold cicada and the sea cat, where is the second young master of the Xue family, Xue Yan, hiding at this time?
- Xue Yan is hiding outside the window of his mother's Xue Wang's inner room at the moment.
Yes, he was eavesdropping on his mother's private words. And it's not the first time he's done it.
In addition, in order to find this place that is convenient for eavesdropping, can come and go freely, and is not easy to be discovered, he also took great pains to find it.
Xue Yan didn't want to do this either. But there is no way, his age is too young, even if anyone has anything important, they will not want to sue him. In desperation, he had no choice but to do it.
However, I don't dare to do too many times, and too many will arouse suspicion.
Now everyone thinks he's just a naughty kid who loves to play peek-a-boo, and this trip is just right.
Thinking about it, the three-year-old Xue Yan made a deep sigh and sighed: It is still far from him being old enough to meddle in the affairs of the family.
- Yes, Xue Yan is not an ordinary precocious child.
He is a traverser.
