Chapter 287: Worrying
The carriage stopped at the second gate, Xia Lan opened the curtain, Lin Zhixuan was helped out of the carriage by Qiu Ju, only to see Chu Nan dressed in plain clothes, the wind shook her seemingly wide hem, waiting at the door, and when she said goodbye to her in Jinling, she lost a lot of weight, and even the brilliance and grandeur in her eyes seemed to be ruthlessly swallowed by something.

As soon as Lin Zhixuan and Chu Nan met, the two sisters couldn't help it, their eyes were red, and they burst into tears.
Qiu Ju persuaded for a long time, and the two of them stopped slightly.
Lin Zhixuan only asked, "How are you at home?" Brother Yu is okay?"
Chu Nan listened to Lin Zhixuan's words, but her eyes couldn't help but turn red again, and she choked up: "It's all good, Brother Yu has grown up a lot, and he has been talking about Sister Zhixuan until he returned home." ”
Lin Zhixuan wiped away her tears, and then followed Chu Nan into the inner courtyard, the people in the family were still plain, but they were preparing for Chu Nan's marriage.
Lin Zhixuan was helpless in her heart, but she still forced a smile and asked, "Is Xue'an coming today?"
Chu Nan said: "I sent someone to invite it, but when it was time for the change of season, she was not good, so she gave Brother Yu a gift, but no one could come." ”
Lin Zhixuan listened, but also worried, and muttered: "A place like the capital is really not suitable for Xue'an. Aunt didn't think about it, when would she send Xue An out of Beijing to recuperate. Winter in the capital is too cold. ”
Chu Nan listened to Lin Zhixuan's worries, but said: "Last time, my aunt told me that my uncle planned to send her to Hangzhou and Lu Yan's house to recuperate after Xue An had a canonization ceremony. But my aunt was reluctant, and always said that when she saw Xue An like this, she was afraid of sending it out, and she would never see her again. ”
Lin Zhixuan only felt bitter at the root of her tongue when she heard this, and she couldn't say a word.
Chu Nan first accompanied Lin Zhixuan to the East Courtyard to see Brother Yu, there were not many people in the house, there was a woman in her thirties next to Brother Yu who was teasing him, but Brother Yu always hid, as if he didn't like it. Although the woman was also wearing plain clothes, she was obviously not a daughter-in-law, and now she is not old, and she is full of romance between her eyebrows and eyes, so she must be an aunt.
Brother Yu is the eldest son of the Wang family, Chu Nan is the eldest daughter, and now the wife of the main house is gone, Brother Yu is still young, and the eldest daughter should be in charge of the family.
But now Chu Nan is waiting to be married, and now the aunt of the Wang family is helping Chu Nan take care of it, and after Chu Nan gets married, if Wang Jingsheng does not continue the string, the Wang family's back house will be in the hands of these aunts.
Lin Zhixuan looked at the aunt carefully, although she did not apply fat powder, but there was no trace of sadness between her eyebrows and eyes, but they were all happy, a pair of Danfeng eyes, the corners of her eyes showed flattery and calculation, and her pointed face only looked at her manners, not a gentle and dignified lord, Lin Zhixuan frowned slightly, after Chu Nan got married, Brother Yu was alone at home, and she was also in a worrying situation.
"Aunt Su, why are you here?" Chu Nan also twisted his eyebrows in surprise when he saw this Aunt Su.
Aunt Su greeted her and said with a smile: "Today is Brother Yu'er's birthday, I, the aunt, should come to give Brother Yu a longevity gift, and I also heard that the girl invited guests today, I want to ask if I want to ask the kitchen to prepare a wine banquet or something?"
Lin Zhixuan frowned when she heard this, now that Chu Nan is still in the filial piety period, Aunt Su actually asked Chu Nan if she wanted to have a banquet after inviting guests, whether she had no heart and lungs, or deliberately wanted to put Chu Nan and Brother Yu in a place of unfilial piety.
Chu Nan also frowned when she heard this: "Zhixuan is the daughter of my aunt's family, and now she is not only here for Brother Yu'er's birthday, but also because she rarely came all the way from Hangzhou to the capital to pay tribute to her mother and visit her cousin."
Brother Yu is still in the filial piety period, and he only ate a bowl of longevity noodles on his birthday, which is already a province and a matter of the East Courtyard, what is lacking, I will tell the people, so I don't have to worry about my aunt.
You have to serve your father, and when your father comes back, he will send someone to talk to me, and I will also take Zhixuan to meet my uncle. ”
Aunt Su's face suddenly became unsightly, and after a while, she said in a weird manner: "Okay, then I won't be here to hinder the girl's eyes, and I will retreat first!"
So saying, he took her maid and went away.
Lin Zhixuan frowned, but Chu Nan looked at Lin Zhixuan helplessly and said, "Let you see the joke." ”
Lin Zhixuan said distressedly: "What are you talking about? Could it be that I came here to see your jokes?"
Chu Nan pulled Lin Zhixuan into the main hall, but Brother Yu was not as foolish as he was in Jinling at that time, and when he saw Lin Zhixuan, he didn't pounce immediately, but respectfully stepped forward and saluted, and called: "Sister." ”
Compared with the little bully who fought with others in Jinling, this child who no longer had his mother's spoiling made Lin Zhixuan's heart hurt, and she quickly responded, leaned over and hugged the poor child, Brother Yu also hugged Lin Zhixuan and cried, just like when he was in Jinling, this child still kissed himself.
Lin Zhixuan persuaded him for a long time, and then gave him the gift she asked Qiu Ju to prepare, Lin Zhixuan did not prepare in advance, and only brought some gadgets and a pair of calligraphy and pen inkstones that Qiu Ju bought in the outer city. finally coaxed Brother Yu to stop crying, but he only looked at the child flipping through the calligraphy, but he was not very interested in those puppet shadow puppets and other gadgets.
Brother Yu only asked Lin Zhixuan: "Sister Xin didn't come?"
I still remember Sister Xin.
Lin Zhixuan said: "Sister Xin is in Hangzhou, Hangzhou is too far from the capital, Sister Xin is still young, and she can't walk such a long way." ”
Brother Yu was a little disappointed.
Lin Zhixuan comforted Brother Yu a few words: "Wait for Sister Xin to grow up and then come to Beijing to play with Brother Yu, okay?"
Brother Yu said sullenly: "It's not fun when you grow up." ”
Lin Zhixuan was startled, her heart was bitter, and she couldn't speak.
Chu Nan asked her mother-in-law to lead Brother Yu to play in the West to see what gifts were sent by each family, and whether there was anything Brother Yu liked.
Chu Nan accompanied Lin Zhixuan to the ancestral hall in the back room, and Lin Zhixuan gave incense to Mrs. Huaida.
Chu Nan accompanied Lin Zhixuan back again, and sat down in the west room of the main room to talk, but between the words, it was all about how to take care of the front yard and back house of the Wang family, tedious, trivial, worried, and relieved, but there was no mention of Wei Mingxu.
"You also saw it today, I am a daughter who wants to marry in the filial piety of my mother, where can I get their respect, if it weren't for the fact that I used to be a bully at home in the past, everyone in the family was a little jealous of me, and now I am afraid that even the subordinates can't suppress it. ”
Lin Zhixuan said: "It's also bitter for you." ”
Chu Nan said: "I'm not afraid of anything, it's just Brother Yu'er, he is only eight years old, his mother is gone, my father is busy with government politics all day long, and I can't see each other for a few days, and I have a sister like me who participates in filial piety, and then I look at Aunt Su's appearance, I am worried that she will raise Brother Yu sooner or later." ”
Lin Zhixuan wrinkled her brows, and said after a while: "Is there only one aunt in the Wang family?"
Chu Nan glanced at Lin Zhixuan with wide eyes: "What do you mean?"
Lin Zhixuan said: "You are only worried about what's the use, instead of watching Aunt Su become bigger, it is better to pick one that you can rest assured and entrust Brother Yu'er." Uncle must feel that he owes you something in his heart. She is favored again, and she will blow the wind on the pillow, but your uncle will not listen to a word. ”
Chu Nan thought about it like this, and sure enough, there was no one in the house who could be trusted, so he discussed it with Lin Zhixuan, but there was an Aunt Bai, who was very generous and benevolent, but she had no heirs under her knees, and she had been neglected for many years.
Lin Zhixuan said: "Having no children under her knees is a bad thing, but it is also a good thing, and when the time comes, Brother Yu will become her only hope." It's just that I also want my sister to take a good look at that Aunt Bai, whether she is a capable person who only lacks opportunities, or whether she is really useless. ”
Chu Nan nodded in response, and talked to Lin Zhixuan for a long time, before he suddenly heard a rumor that the old man had returned.
Chu Nan was about to take Lin Zhixuan to visit, but Yaoqin frowned and admonished: "I heard that when the master came back, his face was terrifying, and when he returned to the room, he dropped the cup and scolded ......."
Chu Nan looked at Yaoqin and hesitated, twisted his eyebrows and urged: "What are you scolding, don't spit out!"
Yaoqin was forced to have no choice, so she said sneeringly: "Scolding Prince Jing ......"
