"But I'm looking forward to a few of you, don't be polite. All sit down. The carriage along the way is very grinding. ”

Mrs. Cheng looked at the girls who came in with a loving face.

How could An Ning let her find the wrong place. That said, though. But etiquette is inadequate.

What's more, there is still an Bailing, the head of the family. You can't be left behind.

"Greetings to the ancestors and the head of the family. ”

A few girls do the rules. An Bailing nodded. I have to say that these girls in the capital are outstanding. From the moment he walked in, at this time, he also took a look.

It is said that there should have been a sister-in-law of the same generation who greeted her at the door. It was deliberately arranged by him, wanting to see the hearts of several of them, and he did not show dissatisfaction. The face is not visible, but it can be seen in general.

In front of the head of the family and Mrs. Cheng, An Xin didn't dare to make a mistake. Before leaving, her mother's second lady said a lot of words. Don't leave a bad impression.

An Yan saluted, and he was much more stable. She has been to the ancestral home a few times. I'm familiar with this place.

An Min had An Ning's encouragement, and her heart was not as nervous as that. Until he sat down, Fang looked at the head of the family slightly. The old man with a little kindness in his majesty is not so intimidating. Glancing at Mrs. Cheng again, her mother told her to pay more attention, as if she was not a good person. Her mother told her to listen to the sixth sister. I can't say more.

An Ning didn't care much either. She was completely unfamiliar with her ancestral home. However, I already had the layout drawings in my hand. You have to study it in practice.

"It's worthy of being a girl in the capital, is the head of the family still satisfied?" Mrs. Cheng didn't have the so-called trouble. It's about kindness. His eyes skimmed over Anning and saw that she was dignified and decent. secretly praised it.

"It's all good. Ancestor, it's getting late, let's let them eat and rest early. I'll see my family again tomorrow morning. "An Bailing is a man in the end, and it is inconvenient for these things to drag on for too long. If it weren't for the special circumstances, he could have left it untouched.

He did want to see what the girls looked like.

"Look at my old woman, patronizing and talking. Pass the word on, and then set the meal. The yard was set up earlier, and you can choose which one you like. If you are not satisfied, I will talk to your sister-in-law tomorrow. It's all a family, but don't see each other. Mrs. Cheng said, she seemed to be tired.

An Ning thanked him for a few times and retired. Follow the maids and ladies to dinner.

"Mother is tired. Hurry up and rest. An Bailing said.

"It's fine. Behold them and rejoice. It's going to be lively. It can also relieve the boredom in my heart. Presumably, a few of them were also depressed because of the death of the old lady. ”

"It's when you're young, don't bother your mother. ”

An Bailing said a few more words. Out of the hall, head to the front yard.

Old Madam Cheng sneered in her heart. We'll see. People are already here. What else can't be done. Besides, he was waiting for her to reply. She needs to think about it in the long run.

The courtyard where An Ning lived was the rest they picked. It is located on the west side of the house. The people she secretly brought with her this time had already taken the lead in listening.

"Just as I am. Erbao, you don't have to serve me, just rest. ”

"Girl, don't worry about feeling sorry for the slave and maid, the slave and maid don't care, you just lie down, don't think too much, Ming'er and the slave and maid began to inquire, we have silver, and it is not easy to let them talk. ”

Erbao is good at dealing with those individuals. It's a peace of mind.

"When you're a newcomer, you have to be careful. There is also the silver that is not of use, and cannot be approached. ”

Erbao put down the curtain and nodded. "Rest assured, the slave will be cautious. ”

There was silence in the courtyard, and the curtains on the windows were gently lifted by the north wind. An Ning asked Erbao to close the window. Then lie down. But I couldn't sleep.

When I saw Mrs. Cheng at night, I didn't realize how sick she was. In a trance, I saw that I was a little tired. I'm afraid it's also pretended. Let them come here this time, if there is no conspiracy, how can An Ning believe it.

This old lady Cheng is also a character. An Bailing's father, whom he called his grandfather, was nearly half a hundred years old when he married her. At that time, Cheng was a good age. The old lady's children were much older than her. She did not give birth to a boy, but only a daughter. The old lady drove the crane west, and left her alone. She's a capable person, and she manages things big and small in the house in an orderly manner. Don't look at the young age, but it is respected by the stepsons and stepdaughters. Especially for An Zhengchen, he helped a lot. This is also the reason why An Zhengchen did not doubt her at all before.

How could such a person of high moral integrity do such a despicable thing? There must be interests involved in this. It's just that they haven't figured it out yet.

What will be done to unravel this mystery----

Early the next morning. An Ning was woken up by Erbao.

I fell asleep at dawn, and I didn't know where I was.

"Girl, hurry up. Ten girls were in the hall outside. said that the eighth girl went to Mrs. Cheng's yard early. It's a shame if you're late. I might be catching your mistakes. ”

"Those who look down on me are useless no matter how good I do. "It's completely impossible to sleep and wake up naturally. The ancestral house is a rule. Everyone's girls have to follow the rules.

There was a rush of tightness. An Ning finally put down his job. Out of the house.

"Sixth sister, but you didn't sleep well?" An Min knew that An Ning was wrong, and he must not have been able to sleep well if he changed places.

"It's not satisfactory, the tenth sister is in good spirits. What about the big sister?" An Yan will not act alone, even if he doesn't come to her, he will talk.

"It's not that I was dragged by the eighth sister to the ancestor. ”

An Min pursed her mouth, her yard was adjacent to An Yan's. So early in the morning, before dawn, she knew that An Xin dragged An Yan with her.

An Xin dragged An Yan because she thought that An Yan was familiar with this ancestral house. Let her go and toss. If she really wants to make Mrs. Cheng look up to her, it can be regarded as her ability.

"Sixth sister, somehow, I can't let go of my heart. ”

An Min felt that the ancestral house was pressing, making her breathe uncomfortable. The maid was silent, as if she was dumb. Sometimes she suddenly appeared and said a sentence, but she was startled.

An Ning didn't care about any of that. She was about to start with those old and old people to inquire about things.

"When I first came here, I was unfamiliar with it, and I was not used to it. It will be fine in a few days. ”

An Ning glanced at An Min. An Min understood and didn't say anything more. Knowing that this place is not as good as the capital, I can't say more, but it is not good to spread it to the ears of others.

Erbao stayed in the courtyard, and An Ning took a girl named Mo'er, who was arranged by the ancestral house. An Min brought her maid Zizhu.

With the footsteps of An Ning, An Min gradually got better. Seeing the scenery of the ancestral house, I also look forward to it from time to time. The heritage of the family is really not ordinary. An Ning also nodded secretly, everything in the ancestral mansion looked indeed extraordinary. This is how a hundred years of glory have piled up.

Unconsciously entered Mrs. Cheng's Shou'an Hall.

"As I was talking, I saw the girls who looked like flowers, come in, come in!" the woman guarding the door had just lifted the curtain, and a woman inside said in a clear voice.

"Da Lang's daughter-in-law, you are an anxious son, don't scare the little girls. "Mrs. Cheng is in good spirits. I sit on the top and smile a lot.

"Six girls, ten girls, it's your sister-in-law who is talking. ”

No wonder it is said that it is Dalang's daughter-in-law, this Dalang is not Dalang, and the peace is sudden. I know it's from my uncle's family. There are many children in the ancestral house, and she can't match the number for a while.

"Say hello to my ancestors, sister-in-law is well. "Just be polite.

Mrs. Cheng hurriedly asked people to take a seat. I also met several other sisters in the ancestral house. After greeting, they began to speak.

"Our six girls are really fairy, I haven't seen them before, but I see them now, and I like them very much. The old ancestor didn't take me there a few years ago, otherwise he would have known me earlier. ”

The sister-in-law's voice was sweet, and the words she said were quite proud. Therefore it is very active.

"Dig through my old accounts here. Mrs. Cheng said with a smile.

"If the sister-in-law doesn't dislike it, we are happy to stay longer. I heard the ancestor say that the sister-in-law is very good, so I just asked the sister-in-law for guidance. An Xin said earnestly on the side.

An Ning entered the house and received An Xin's gaze, faintly provocative. An Yan winked at her helplessly. She only smiled slightly, and didn't take it seriously.

Is this kind of competition for favor necessary? Extremely stupid!

"Ten girls show off their wisdom, and I heard that she is a talented girl. The eldest sister-in-law's idea is rough, and she barely catches the eye. ”

An Ning didn't interject, but An Xin had just rushed to say it, and she didn't want to take it down.

Mrs. Cheng was surrounded by juniors, and she seemed to be in a good mood.

"Your sister-in-law is humble this time, so that you can see it. Come and eat more snacks, knowing that you got up early, you must not have eaten well, so you have to come to accompany me, an old woman, ten girls, you also come, don't be restrained. ”

I have to say that Mrs. Cheng can take into account everyone's feelings. When it comes to talking, it makes people feel comfortable.

An Ning followed and ate a piece, which tasted good.

I talked about it for a while. There is a maid to pass the word. Mrs. Cheng's daughters-in-law finished handling the affairs in their yard and came here to say goodbye to Mrs. Cheng.

An Ning saluted again and greeted him.

Mrs. Cheng didn't keep any more of them. Let the sister-in-law send someone to take her to the garden.

"Without the pressure of the old immortals, you monkeys can go wild. Let's go, go to our garden for a walk, the water pavilion and pavilion over there are still very cool. The eldest sister-in-law said playfully. A group of maids and maids, surrounded by this tranquility, set off towards the garden in a mighty way.

"Sixth sister, shall we go and sit over there?" said the eldest sister-in-law, He Shi.

"Sixth sister, let's go boating, will you go?" An Xin said loudly. Seeing that her sister-in-law was going to talk to An Ning, she didn't like it.

"Since the tenth sister called you, go ahead. The sister-in-law smiled.

"Won't the sister-in-law go with you?" To be honest, An Ning doesn't like to talk to her sister-in-law alone. This kind of person who can speak well, she doesn't want to socialize more. Even if she is the sister-in-law of the ancestral house.
