Thank you very much for the peace charm that is muttered in the dark night...... The second half of the previous chapter has been revised, so please look at this chapter and go back to the previous chapter, sorry......

※※※※※※※※

The first time Zheng Sui saw his sister-in-law was in the house where his aunt lived in Langhua Garden.

When she and the fifth brother went in to meet her aunt, the sister-in-law Li stood beside the aunt, under the bright light, only looking at the sister-in-law with fair skin, tall figure, a smile on her round face, and a pair of clear eyes, when looking at her and the fifth brother, she was extraordinarily soft, and it was easy for people to feel close.

So much so, many years later, when I think of my sister-in-law, my memory is still so vivid.

That's an afterword.

The unmarried sisters in the family are all here, and since they came in, except for the girl who knelt under her aunt and sister-in-law, she did not get up, and the other four girls all got up, and even Xiaolang, who was kneeling behind her aunt, also got up.

After a salute, the aunt beckoned Zheng Sui and the fifth brother Zheng Wei to her, glanced at the two brothers and sisters, and then said to the Li family on the side: "It seems that it is still the feng shui of Pingcheng, look at these two brothers and sisters, they are so good-looking," said, looked at the fifth brother Zheng Wei and said: "Anu has been handsome since he was a child, and now that he has grown up, I can see that none of these little men in the family can compare." ”

The fifth brother Zheng Wei hurriedly said: "The brothers of the family are all together, like pearls and jades, not only Anu." ”

Come to think of it, on weekdays, my aunt is a person who is used to being strict, and since she came in, there are many sisters in the house, but she has been very quiet, combed in a bun, meticulously cleaned up, full of black hair, extremely well maintained, and looks like she is only in her forties.

At this time, after listening to the words of the fifth brother, Zhuge couldn't help but sneer: "Sure enough, it's Anu, who can say such things, but he praised all the brothers in the family, and in the future, he will live at home for a long time, but he must take Azhi well." ”

Ah Zhi is Zheng Hong, the old son of Zhuge Clan, nicknamed Ah Zhi, the sixth in the family, the same age as Zheng Sui, half a year older than Zheng Sui.

As she spoke, she watched Zhuge summon the little Langjun standing behind her to him, pointed to the fifth brother and said, "Come forward and salute your fifth brother." ”

He pointed at Zheng Sui again, "This is your tenth sister." ”

Zheng Hong first saluted Zheng Wei, and then turned his head to look at Zheng Sui, "In the past, I was the youngest in the family, but now that the tenth sister is back, I am no longer the youngest......"

Zheng Sui just called out to the sixth brother, but saw Zheng Hong staring at Zheng Sui with wide eyes, and exclaimed: "I have seen my sister, and the picture of the beauty in my sister's and uncle's study in the Shoujing Garden is very good. ”

As soon as the words fell, Zheng Sui and Zheng Wei's faces changed slightly, and even the smiles on their sister-in-law's faces froze.

Zhuge hurriedly patted Zheng Hong's head and reprimanded: "Nonsense, what kind of beauty, don't talk nonsense." ”

I only heard Zheng Wei say: "The tenth sister Xiao is like a mother, and I want to come to the sixth brother to see the portrait of my mother." "Xixi Xiao looks like A-Niang, presumably the picture in Aye's study is A-Niang's portrait, the beauty picture in Xuanhua Garden, Cuifu in Pingcheng, Zheng Wei has taken a closer look, the outline has been eight points like, two points are not like it, or because Xixi is still young now and has not fully grown up.

As soon as she heard this, Zheng Hong's expression suddenly became stern.

When the world attaches great importance to filial piety, especially a family like the Zheng family that takes Confucianism and scriptures as the foundation of inheritance, it is more important.

Although Zheng Hong is young, there is no shortage of etiquette that should be known, so he is busy making amends.

The aunt on the side looked at her son, and her eyes suddenly showed satisfaction.

Zheng Wei hurriedly reached out to help Zheng Hong up.

Zheng Sui looked at the scene in front of him, and suddenly felt a burst of warmth in his hand, looked up, and met the smiling eyes of his sister-in-law, like a spring breeze, "There are many sisters in the family, Xixi first came to the house, I will take Xixi to know these sisters in the family first, and we can study and play together in the future." ”

"That's as it should be. ”

The aunt on the side agreed very much, and Zheng Sui followed the sister-in-law to meet the six sisters in the house.

The fourth sister Zheng Fan, fifteen years old, is Zheng Sui's half-sister, the biological mother Xiao Cui, A-Niang's companion, after A-Niang's death, her father did not remarry, and the little Cui family was straightened.

The fifth sister Zheng Yan and the sixth sister Zheng Mu are the same age, when the aunt Zhuge gave birth to the third sister Zheng Aya, the body was injured, and it was difficult to get pregnant again, until the great-grandmother gave the uncle a two-room side room, after eight years, the aunt was pregnant again, so the fifth sister and the third sister are nine years apart, before being born, I have been looking forward to being a boy, no one ever thought that she was born, she was still a daughter.

When the fifth sister remembered a little, she knew about it, so she was good at dressing up as a man since she was a child.

These were also mentioned by the fifth sister herself, after getting acquainted.

And at this moment, Zheng Sui looked at the fifth sister in front of him, with long eyebrows and sideburns, heroic and heroic, in this group of sisters, it is easy for people to remember.

The seventh sister Zheng Pu and the eighth sister Zheng Jia are the same age, both of them are the same as the sixth sister Zheng Mu, they are both from the uncle's two side rooms, when Zheng Sui stepped forward to salute, he turned sideways and returned half a salute.

The ninth sister, Zheng Qian, is two years older than her, and her fourth brother Zheng Jun is the same mother.

After Zheng Sui saw all the sisters, Zheng Wei was only younger than Zheng Fan and Zheng Wei, and he stepped forward to salute first, and then accepted the salute of the remaining four younger sisters.

After some confession, the aunt instructed a few more words, and looked at the hourglass on the case, it was not too early, and the aunt let them all disperse.

When they came out of the house, they all had women and servants who followed them.

After saying goodbye for a while, they all dispersed.

Zheng Sui stretched out his hand and pulled the fifth brother's hand, Zheng Wei squatted down busily, "What's wrong?"

Zheng Sui leaned in front of Zheng Wei and hummed softly.

"Then Brother hug you. ”

As soon as Zheng Wei's voice fell, he only heard the sister-in-law on the side say: "If Xixi doesn't dislike it, it's good to let your sister-in-law hug you." As he spoke, he squatted down with a smile and stretched out his hands towards Zheng Sui.

Zheng Sui leaned in front of Zheng Wei, only feeling that the scene in front of him was somewhat similar, and he hesitated, Zheng Wei gently pushed her, "Go, wait for my sister-in-law to lead you to the place where you live." ”

Li stepped forward and stretched out his hand to hug Zheng Sui, and seeing that Zheng Sui was not unwilling, he hugged him.

Suddenly off the ground, Zheng Sui hurriedly reached out and grabbed his sister-in-law's shoulder.

Li Shi reached out and let Zheng Sui's two hands wrap around her neck, and then walked forward with Zheng Sui in his arms.

Zheng Sui smelled the dry smell of her sister-in-law, called her sister-in-law, and then leaned on her sister-in-law's arms and tilted her head slightly.

In the sky, the moon and stars are scarce,

There were servants carrying lanterns before and after, Zheng Wei followed behind, looking at Zheng Sui in his sister-in-law's arms, and remembered what the eldest brother said to him when he came back: Xixi is too sticky to him, since men and women are seven years old, he is fourteen years old, and Xixi is also ten years old, although they are brothers and sisters, but in the end, they are old, and they are not compatible with the ceremony, and after returning to the Zheng family, they handed Xixi to their sister-in-law.
