As the saying goes: children from poor families are in charge of the house early. www.biquge.info Although the Li Mansion is not in the ranks of poor families, the children of the Li family are also in charge of the family. No, my mother has been in incense-making retreat for several days, and the matter of feeding has already been explained, but there are always some trivial matters. The man ignored the inner house, and the remaining serious and manageable master was left with Li Ying.

At this time, the dinner was also held under the auspices of Li Ying, and only the brothers and sisters were dining. Eating without saying a word, this is the basic dining etiquette. Li Ying was disdainful, and it was not easy for the big guys to get together at the time of dinner, so they could say a word or two appropriately. This food is not also a communicative, eating, drinking, chatting. Li Ling is strictly disciplined, eating with a single look, this is concentration.

As a result, during meals. Li Ying glanced at Brother Li Ling from time to time, watched him clip a few more pieces on that dish, and watched his dining posture. Li Ling was uncomfortable, and he only felt that his sister was a curious baby, so he ate quietly and quietly.

After finishing the meal, Xiao Si on the side served a clean plate, warm towels, and tea. Li Lingsi slowly rinsed his mouth, cleaned his hands, wiped his hands, and quietly waited for Li Ying to speak.

At this time, Li Ying was not in a hurry, and looked at him with a smile, as if waiting for a cat to be caressed.

After a long while, Li Ying couldn't sit still, so he asked, "Brother, does today's meal suit your appetite?" There was a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Being treated like this by this six- or seven-year-old girl, Li Ling, as an eleven-year-old brother, is naturally encouraged, Ying Ying smiled: "Yes, it's delicious, the chicken soup is very fresh, and the pot meat is also very delicious this time." ”

Li Ying smiled, very happy.

Originally, she was sitting on the mat opposite Li Ling, but as soon as she was happy, she ran to Li Ling's side, and the brother and sister sat side by side.

Mama Xu, who was standing on the side, observed carefully, the main mother was not there, she was her eyes, and she had to keep a few more eyes on everything. I was very happy to see the brother and sister getting along in harmony, and I would inform my mother Jing of the situation.

"Brother, you've praised me, shouldn't you reward something?" Li Ying carried out the cheeky role to the end.

Li Ling's eyes were full of doting, and he said warmly: "Say it!"

Li Ying stood up with a smile and said in Li Ling's ear: "Brother, can you help me bring a message to the head of Daxin Grange?"

Li Ling raised his eyebrows and listened to Li Ying's words slowly.

******

In the evening, Li Ying stretched out in front of the bookcase, and the matter of the second girl was finally implemented, and she was relieved. With nothing to do, I played with the oil lamp in front of the bookcase, the pottery oil lamp, the dim light, everything seemed so unreal.

Looking at Rue Xiang and Lai Di in the house, I thought that it was Rue Xiang who kept vigil tonight. At first, she hated the night watchman very much, and she asked her mother several times for advice, but she did not agree. Later, he was treated as a transparent person.

When I came out of my thoughts, I saw Rue Xiang tidying up the quilt and preparing to wash before going to bed. Every night before going to bed, Li Ying has to soak her feet to sleep well, which is a habit she left when she was still a little girl, no matter spring, summer, autumn and winter, cold and heat.

Lai Di was in a trance and brought the foot plate to the bottom of the bed, Rue Xiang, who was arranging the quilt, saw her like this, frowned, and saw that the young lady didn't pay attention, so she touched her with her elbow, and Lai Di came back to her senses. At a glance, what did she do, the young lady was still sitting in front of the bookcase, and had not yet changed her clothes, so she would bring the hot soup now, but she was afraid that it would be cold after a while.

Lai Di cast a grateful look at Rue Xiang, and quietly put down the foot plate, this scene naturally fell in the eyes of Li Ying, who pretended to be indifferent.

Laidi and Rue are not in the same room. Li Ying's residence is an independent attic, and the maid and wife live in the wing room downstairs. Laidi, Erniu, Needle Yu, Cuixiang is in a house, but it is fun, Ruexiang, Cuihong is a house. The new Chen Wang Zhang's mother-in-law has a house, and Tian Mama's oldest has a room alone.

It's not that there is a faction in a house, for example, Cuihong is a faction of her own, she has her arrogant capital, but she is about to get married. Which people were arranged by my mother? Among this group of people, Rue Xiang is a good candidate for steady work, thoughtful, and thoughtful, Li Ying thought to herself, if I were my mother, I would also choose her as a confidant.

What a pity!

Li Ying walked out of the study and came to the Little Flower Hall, where the two wrens given by Li Ling's brother were hanging. During the day, they are hung under the support of the corridor in front of the corridor, and at night, if they are worried about the wind and cold, they are hung in the small flower hall. At the beginning, Li Ying decided to put the wren buddies under the corridor support, and Mama Tian also muttered that she was not afraid that they would fly away. Li Ying smiled and said, just fly, it's more free, and you don't have a word to swallow your grandmother.

Rue Xiang saw Li Ying go to the Little Flower Hall, and hurriedly lit the oil lamp and followed. Waiting for her to come to the small flower hall, she saw that the semi-circular moonlight made Li Ying's figure even darker, her heart tightened, and she persuaded: "Miss, it's cool in the autumn night, rest in peace as soon as possible!"

Li Ying didn't say much, he was teasing Brother Wren. Brother Wren had been sleepy for a long time, but when he saw his master coming, he was happy. These two little wrens can only call "yaaa On weekdays, it is not obvious that it is noisy, but the sound is a little infiltrating at night, Li Ying was amused by their simple little appearance, laughed heartily, and stopped for a long time.

"Ruexiang, you see, this wren brother is really interesting, if you give it food and drink, it will believe you, whatever you tease him, or smile and have fun with you. Li Ying carefully observed the posture of Brother Wren drinking water, and said casually, "What a human!"

Rue Xiang didn't know what Miss meant, so she nodded yes.

Now it is really a strange scene, a child of six or seven years old, standing on a round stool, followed by an eleven-year-old girl, actually feeding the wren in the middle of the night, and talking happily......

"Rue Xiang, how many people are in your family?" Li Ying got down from the round stool, and Rue Xiang supported her.

Rue Xiang paused slightly, and replied calmly: "There are many brothers in the slave maid's family, do the math, the slave maid is ranked ninth, but she has a younger brother, and now she lives with her mother!"

Li Ying went through Ruxiang's information in her mind, Ruxiang's father was born in a down-and-out family of scholars, her mother was originally a slave in the family, and she became a bed warmer when she was taken by the master, and then gave birth to Rue Xiang and her younger brother. Daddy was fine when he was alive, but as soon as he left, the housemother kicked out the three of them, not even their son. Then, he took refuge with his brother in the Li Mansion, so he could be regarded as having something to rely on.

It's also a poor person, but it also trains her.

"How old is your brother?" Li Ying then asked.

As soon as she talked about her younger brother, Rue Xiang smiled sincerely and replied, "Five years old, an obedient old child." There was a look of pride on her face, she was proud of her brother.

"Well, it's almost possible to go into our family's homeschooling. "The Li family has set up a school for the children of the appropriate age, although Ruxiang's younger brother is not a slave in the family, it is not a problem to enter the family to study, and the master mother Jing is very generous in this regard.
