Chapter Fifty-Six: A Distant Guest Arrives

On the twentieth day of the lunar month, accompanied by fine snowflakes, Zhen Wanyi helped the fourth wife to rush to the second gate with one foot high and one foot low, only to see a group of stout servants crowded around a dozen cages, and there was a high tone of Mama Huang, "Be careful, this is what my uncle's wife brought from the capital, but I have to lift it lightly." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

A few mothers-in-law replied respectfully: "Oh, I said Sister Huang, don't you feel at ease with our people?" You, just watch from the sidelines, we will move these cages to Mrs. Four, even if it is loaded with boxes of tofu, we will ensure that Mrs. Four can't drink bean curd. ”

After speaking, there was a burst of laughter, and Mama Huang's sharp eyes saw the fourth wife, and hurriedly said: "Hurry up, move away quickly so that the fourth wife can give a reward." ”

After the servant woman who carried the cage left, Mama Huang greeted her, "Mrs., Mrs. Uncle and Miss Cousin have arrived." ”

The round-faced woman standing behind Mama Huang, a blue rabbit fur cloak faintly revealing a blue plain velvet embroidered jacket and a yellow brocade edge of the five-bat pattern group flower, a girl wearing a silver brocade cloak standing behind her, fifteen or sixteen years old, Tingting Yuli, Zhen Wanyi's mind suddenly had a sentence: cheeks condensed new li, greasy nose goose fat, gentle and silent, amiable to watch.

Although she had never seen this cousin, Zhen Wanyi liked it at this glance. This may be the fate between people, some people need to get along for a long time, run in with each other, in order to get along happily, and some people don't need any words, just a glance as if they have known each other for many years.

Zhen Wanyi had such a feeling, the tension in Yu Yuezhen's heart, who saw her aunt's cousin for the first time, calmed down the moment she saw the real person, and seeing her face very similar to her grandmother, Yu Yuezhen really felt like seeing her family. What's more, the little cousin has a kind smile on her face, how amiable she looks.

The eyes of the fourth wife kept shuttling on the faces of the two, and the tears couldn't be stopped, and Mrs. Yu's eyes were also red and full of tears.

"Sister-in-law." The fourth lady choked up, like a daughter who had been wronged and was eager to coddle her elders.

After all, Mrs. Yu was much older, and she quickly controlled her emotions, "Fourth sister, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you okay all these years?" You came back here just after giving birth to twins, but you were worried about us to death. My mother wept when she thought about it. ”

The fourth wife was even more sad, "Sister-in-law, is my mother okay?" As for the father, there are also the eldest brother, the second brother, the second sister-in-law, the third brother and the third sister-in-law, they are all right. ”

Mrs. Yu stiffened for a moment before she said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

The fourth wife only cared about being sad and excited, and didn't notice Mrs. Yu's sudden change of expression, but Zhen Wanyi, who had been observing, saw it, and her heart chuckled, casting a shadow, could it be that something really happened to her grandfather's family?

After Mrs. Yu finished speaking, she pulled the person behind her, "Fourth sister, this is the third brother's mother." ”

The fourth wife didn't wait for Yu Yuezhen to bow down, she got busy, took off a pair of silver silk double buckles on her wrists, and put them on Yu Yuezhen's wrists, "Good boy, hurry up, let my aunt see, you were still in the nurse's arms when your aunt left, I didn't want to see each other again, you look like this, like the third sister-in-law, especially the eyes." The latter sentence is said to Mrs. Yu.

Zhen Wanyi looked at the fourth wife who had been excited, and understood that she wanted her mother to remember that she was only afraid that she would have a good meal, so she took two steps forward, "Niece Wanyi has seen her aunt and cousin, please say hello to her aunt." ”

Mrs. Yu also grabbed Zhen Wanyi, took off a pair of gemstone-encrusted auspicious cloud pattern gold bracelets on her wrists, and put them on Zhen Wanyi's wrists, "Good boy, when you left the capital, you were just 100 days old, I didn't expect to be so beautiful, fourth sister, you are really blessed." ”

The fourth wife is still wiping her tears, which is too far from her usual shrewdness, but it can also be seen that the relationship between the fourth wife and her mother-in-law must be very good.

Zhen Wanyi had to step forward to interrupt the fourth wife's touch, "Mother, it's freezing here, and my aunt and cousin must be very tired, why don't we go back to the house first and talk in detail." ”

Mrs. Yu also nodded and said, "That's right, the fourth sister will take us to freshen up first, and then we will go to see the old lady of the in-laws." ”

The fourth wife took a few deep breaths, wiped her face, and said with a smile: "Look at me, I still want the child to teach how to entertain guests, sister-in-law, Zhenniang, let's go back to the house first." ”

The group walked towards Tingxiang Courtyard in the cold wind, and when they came, they only felt that the biting clammy cold became gentle and warm in the excited smile of the fourth wife.

The warmth in the house of Tingxiang Courtyard was strong, everyone took off their cloaks, and the lotus fragrance assigned by the fourth wife brought people to send hot soup for Mrs. Yu and Miss Biao to wash, just cleaned up, the door curtain was lifted, Zhen Mingjie walked in with Zhen Xiujie, and when he left the capital, Zhen Mingjie was already six years old and could remember, and he still had some impressions of this aunt who loved him, and as soon as he came in, he greeted the guests from afar.

Mrs. Yu was naturally pleased, got up and hurriedly pulled up the two of them, looked up and down, looked at them again and again, and looked so kind that she couldn't be more satisfied, "Good boy, you're all so old, I heard that my brother has become a master, it's really good, now you are always promising, and your mother can be regarded as having a good time." Brother Xiu'er, you also have to participate in next year's children's exam, fourth sister, you are going to have a son of a jinshi again. ”

The two brothers of the Zhen family blushed with shyness when they said this, especially Zhen Xiujie, who has seen him recently, will say that there is another Jinshi in the fourth room, he was still complacent when he first heard this, but after a long time, his heart was confused, especially the closer the Tong test is, the more irritated his heart becomes, which makes him most afraid of hearing such words now. But his uncle, who had never seen him, said this, and he couldn't refute it, so he hung his head and hid behind his brother.

"Come, meet your cousin Jane. Brother Xiu is going to call her cousin. ”

Under the joking introduction of Mrs. Yu, Zhen Mingjie was long and short, and he saluted honestly, and his eyes did not move in the slightest, "My cousin is fine." ”

Zhen Xiujie looked at it seriously for a while before saying, "I've seen Cousin Zhen." ”

Just looking at Zhen Xiujie's serious appearance, Zhen Wanyi knew that he had accepted this cousin. Don't look at Brother Xiu'er's big grin on the surface, as if he is familiar with anyone, but it is not easy to make him accept a person. Being able to greet with such a serious greeting at least shows that his first impression of Zhenniang is good.

However, Yu Yuezhen blushed when she saw the ceremony, and it was difficult for the elders to retreat when they were present, so she had to sit there with her eyes and nose and mouth after seeing the ceremony, listening to the two people on the main seat. In fact, it was all the fourth wife's question, Mrs. Yu kept answering, occasionally mixed with the voice of Mrs. Yu asking the two brothers of the Zhen family, and they looked harmonious.
