Chapter 34: Big Little

In addition to eating lighter on the mountain, it is more idle than usual, the big girl restricts the little girl, and they are not allowed to go up the mountain, for fear that they will go deep and not find it.

On the first day of August, the Jiao Xun altar was closed, and the people who came up the mountain did not eat meat as early as January, and the old lady Song went up the mountain, and the old lady also came up, and lived in front, with the old man, but the second master of Song did not come up for a long time, Ye's wind was light, but Gan's was as anxious as an ant in a hot pot.

How is Song Erye's errand, I have to see if the old lady is working hard for him, this time he is making a mistake, but he is not smashing his own errand, Gan's day is eager to send three rounds of people to invite her husband, and this is when she thinks that Ye's can't help: "It's me who can't make a man, she can sit still, that heart is really towards the dead ghost, hurry up and get out early." ”

The veils were all twisted, Song Wanghai still didn't come, but Song Yintang, the son of the Ye family, rushed to come the day before the closed Jiao Xun altar, the old lady was overjoyed to see him, and took his hand A Guan Chang A Guan Short, Shi Gui came here to see the third generation of the Song family's eldest young master.

Just by taking a look, you can know why the old lady likes this grandson, Song Yintang wears a robe with blue silk and silver silk dark patterns, with a long body and jade, a jasper carved bamboo hairpin on his head, his eyebrows and eyes are gentle, his manners are polite, and he also let one go.

When it was close, there was a lot of movement that could be heard, the old lady's room was clean, except for chanting the Buddha, she couldn't hear the sound next to her, and at this time she even laughed, and the girls in the room stood under the porch, and the gold plate and begonia gathered a tray and sent it in, and asked for tea and soup, and Yingluo also came out to urge: "What else did you bring to eat? Hurry up and make some." ”

Ye Shi was accompanied inside, and he didn't bring so many things when he went up the mountain, but the things were put on the go, and the old lady saw that there was nothing to eat, and Song Yintang asked her to clench her hand tightly: "You came to the boat and went up the mountain again without a while, there will be nothing to eat on the road, so let them think about it." ”

It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and she can't make meat, and the vegetarian ones are just those two, that is, the delicacies of the mountains and seas are served, and the old lady also feels wronged by her grandson.

The old lady was not happy to bring the bamboo shoots and snow lotus roots, and pinched her grandson's wrist: "You have lost weight." ”

Song Yintang smiled: "Where is the weight loss, I am strong, looking at the reduction, but the person is energetic." He said with some people's amusement: "The young master accompanied the old lady and Mrs., and also ate a month's vegetarian meal at home." ”

The old lady stretched out her hand and hugged him: "Good boy, it's not in vain that I hurt you." The more this is the case, the more I think that none of my sons have shown up, and none of the two in the second room have come, I sneered in my heart, looked at the robe on Song Yintang's body and said: "Your mother and I are not in Beijing, but someone is slacking you?

Shi Gui was originally waiting under the east corridor, but Cha Mei came out and beckoned to her, and beckoned her over: "You are waiting here, you have your benefits." ”

Liangjiang papaya came over early, only the green calyx was timid and shrunk behind the pillar of the east hallway, talking and laughing for a while, Gan's only then brought the two of the golden finch and silver phoenix over, she heard that Song Yintang was coming, and she almost didn't mention it in one breath, she held a cup in her hand, and she wanted to smash it but didn't dare.

This time, Song Wanghai was scolded: "A useless man who shrinks his head, why don't you ask her to carry it if she has the ability, I am the only one who digs out my heart and lungs, and I don't know my good." ”

The more he talked, the more aggrieved he became, he complained about everyone in the family, cried for a round, and pounced on the fans again, and then he came over: "I don't know if Yintang is here, what's going on?

As soon as she came, Mrs. Song's face immediately hung up, and Gan knew that it was necessary to look at her face when she came, so she still had a smile on her face, and asked Song Yintang softly how it was on the way to come, whether she took the water route or the land route, and which family members followed.

I wanted to ask my son, but she didn't open her mouth in front of the old lady, she didn't mention it, and the old lady Song wouldn't let her go: "This is what I have in my heart, which ones don't have me, my father and mother are outside, and they don't even send letters, when we die." ”

When Gan heard this, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down: "There are also a few days late on the boat, and the uncle is angry, where does he have such courage." ”

The old lady sneered: "The filial son and grandson are only sung in the book and in the play, and he left early to get one, and it was so difficult to ask him to burn incense for his brother!

When the old lady said these words, Song Yintang was about to stand up and avoid it, where was she willing to give up her grandson, so she didn't say anything, she pulled him and said: "You avoid it, you also listen to these truths, don't pick up the shelf in front of you because she is an elder." ”

In the end, I didn't say any more, Gan's made such a faceless fuss, and he looked at Ye's with his eyes, and saw that she was still sitting steadily, lowering her eyebrows and not saying anything, and she couldn't swallow this breath in her heart.

The girls in the corridor outside listened to it, and shrunk their necks one by one, and the papaya was about to stretch out her head, so Shi Gui grabbed it, stood against the root of the wall, and as soon as the bamboo curtain was lifted, Gan covered his face and came out of it.

The old lady's anger is accumulating bigger and bigger, and the seizure drove Gan out, Gan entered the West Chamber and closed the door and cried, Yinfeng took the basin, and the goldfinch scarf was handed over: "The old lady is too indifferent, so she can't scold our wife." ”

Lifa is an aunt and nephew and daughter-in-law, but she has lived in one place for more than ten years, in her eyes, the benefits are not as good as the Ye family, and the disadvantages are not known, and she scolds mercilessly.

I didn't dare to cry loudly, I put my head in the quilt, and grabbed the collar with one hand: "What kind of life am I living here." Biting the horn and whimpering, she deliberately didn't bring her children, because she didn't want to lose Song Wanghai's favor.

The Ye family has the support of her in-laws, what does she have, even if her serious mother-in-law comes, she has to be soft in front of Mrs. Song, and she will crush people to death in the first rank of the official, not to mention one who is from the first rank and the other who is not an official.

I was soaked in coptis bitterness in my heart, and after crying, I had to quickly ask someone to deliver the letter, for fear that the old lady would come to the old lady Song and talk to them, so that they would suffer again in this room, and then regret it again, and I knew how to bring my son here.

The old lady didn't mention the lawsuit here, Shi Gui saw Gan's face covered and went out, looked at each other, and pretended not to see it, and when the old lady's baby was enough for her grandson, when Song Yintang came out, the little girls all came up, Song Yintang smiled, each of them gave some copper plates, and emptied a purse: "Wait for the old lady well, and buy a colorful rabbit lantern during the August Festival." ”

The old lady couldn't stop laughing when she heard it inside: "You bad thing, you are greedy for fun, and you use me as a raft." "But the grandson opened

mouth, she immediately instructed Yingluo: "Do you hear? Buying some lanterns is always a happy event, just have fun, I said that this place is also strangely deserted." ”

The old lady opened her mouth, she had her own subordinates to do it, Ye waited for her to eat tea with a fine point, she was still thinking about her grandson's house, and when she finished reading this round, Ye said: "My mother is too harsh on her younger siblings." ”

The old lady raised her eyes to look at her, Ye's still had that sparse appearance, a complete set of bamboo knotted pots in her hand made the clouds flow, the incense pot passed the tea foam, and then nodded three times, and a cup of fragrant tea was sent to the old lady: "Mother eat tea." ”

The old lady asked her to extinguish her anger even if she was angry, and sighed: "It's not to blame her, but she's also a hateful!" ”

When Ye Shi heard this, he didn't speak, cut open the lotus canopy with a silver knife, picked out the lotus fruit, scraped the knife in half, picked the lotus heart to the side of the plate, and soaked the lotus seeds into the honey.

The old lady knew at a glance that it was for Song Yintang, and the anger dissipated again: "I brought it up, eat with me, he likes this sweet and soft." ”

The silver skewer picked the honey lotus seeds, and the small cup was chewed and eaten after a while, and the people were old, and the near ones were easy to forget and the distant ones were engraved in their hearts, as if they were relatives

Zi also peeled lotus seeds for her like this, grinding her to marry a girl from the Ye family.

Seventeen years have passed in a blink of an eye, and as soon as the teacup in Mrs. Song's hand was put down, Ye stood up: "Mother, take a nap, Ming'er will be closed." ”

Ye returned to the East Chamber, Song Yintang was waiting in the house, he saw Ye Shi did not seem to see Mrs. Song affectionate, and asked for peace again, and told all kinds of things at home, and then retreated.

These above, the people below can't care, only know that the young master came to add vegetables to eat, and got a few more rewards, Shi Gui gave half to the green calyx, the green calyx pinched the copper, a few girls now look at her pleasing to the eye, and they all nodded at her: "There will be this in the future, hurry up and run faster, I heard that when the ten offerings are made, we can also get money." ”

Shi Gui asked her to put away the money, and only said when there was no one: "If you can save more, you have to go later, what can you do if you don't have any money?"

The green calyx bit her lip, her eyes were red, from childhood to adulthood, who said such a thoughtful word to her, next to Shi Gui's arm: "I know." ”

The second day was closed, it rained at night, the mountain wind was loud, the rain was like thunder, the window frame crackled, the rain poured down, the old lady heard the thunder, the house turned on the light, Ye's clothes were up, but Gan's heart chanted Buddha, if it rained on an auspicious day, you can't blame Song Wanghai for being late, this is God wants her to wait.

How do you know that the next day is still cloudy, the old lady sent someone to ask, Song Lao Zhenren said that the green words have been burned, and don't do anything, seeing that the sky is cloudy and compassionate, the rain will not rain, as soon as the auspicious time comes, Song Lao Zhenren recited the quiet mantra by the altar, closed the ghost door and opened the gate of heaven, and surrounded the altar with a yellow cloth, waiting for the prayer banner to attract God.

As soon as the banner of the Jade Emperor was hung, the sky was clear, and the old lady Song wanted to recite the Buddha, and then remembered that this was a Taoist temple, and swallowed the Buddha number into it: "Sure enough, it is an old immortal, and it is really a Taoist." ”

The girl at the bottom was also amazed, Shi Gui didn't believe this, and felt strange when he saw this, yesterday's rain was like the Milky Way opening the floodgates, not only is it sunny at this time, but the fog on the mountain has dispersed, and the pine trees on the top of the mountain are clear.

Song Wanghai still didn't come, the sky was clear, Mrs. Song's face was so cloudy that it could drip water, Gan's trembling and trembling atmosphere didn't dare to breathe, and when the mountain gate was closed, people couldn't come up.

Gan's is like a little daughter-in-law who has just married, she gets up early and rests late, but Mrs. Song still can't please here: "You are a nephew and daughter-in-law, and I have someone to wait for." ”

Gan was anxious and angry, and there was a circle of bubbles on her mouth, and at this time she became an "outsider" again, and she was bitter in her heart, but she had to offer this courtesy, so the old lady didn't give a good face, and she also accompanied her with a smile for a day.

No matter how anxious she is, it's useless, Song Wanghai didn't come in the end, not only did her husband not come, but her son didn't come either, Gan's family was not a person inside and outside, she didn't dare to come out quietly in the west chamber, and she couldn't wait to hang the big tower and light the lamp, and finish the Jiao Festival as soon as possible.
