Chapter 19: Be content

The three of them sat and drank a cup of tea, talked for a while, and without any further stay, they took their leave and went back.

Li Xiaonuan sent the three of them to the gate of the courtyard, watched a few people walk away, and then leisurely turned back to the main house, lazily crooked on the east wing couch thinking about his thoughts.

At the end of winter, I made tea, sent it in with a smile, and looked at Li Xiaonuan with joy in my eyes:

"Girl, in the morning, Madame sent someone to bring a packet of bird's nest and a packet of borneol snowflake candy over, and ordered that they be boiled every morning for the girl to eat before school!"

Li Xiaonuan was stunned, frowned slightly and asked:

"This bird's nest, in addition to the ancestor, Mrs. and young master, are there any two young ladies in the house?"

"Yes, the two young ladies are the same as the young master, they are one or two bird's nests a day, five dollars of borneol snowflake candy, and now the girls are the same."

The end of winter replied with a smile, Li Xiaonuan relaxed, looked at the end of winter with a smile, and commanded in a low voice:

"You bring it and I'll take a look."

The end of the winter lowered his eyes slightly, smiled and bent his knees to agree, turned around and went out, for a while, with a handkerchief to hold two nests of bird's nest and a few pieces of rock candy, Li Xiaonuan leaned over, looked carefully, and picked up the bird's nest and looked at the light carefully for a while, before putting it back in the hand of the end of the winter, shook his head with a smile and said:

"It's the first time I've seen this thing, it's weird."

At the end of winter, he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, held the bird's nest, flipped it over and looked at it, and reported with a smile on his face:

"I have already soaked the bird's nest, after a while, let Xiaoyu carefully pick it up, get up early tomorrow morning and stew, the girl will get up a quarter of an hour earlier tomorrow, eat bird's nest porridge and then go to school in the morning."

Li Xiaonuan nodded, and sent back with bird's nest and rock candy with a smile at the end of winter.

Li Xiaonuan picked up the cup, drank the tea leisurely, looked at the back of the end of winter, and felt a little warm in her heart, the end of winter was really for her good, and the bird's nest sent to this yard must be much worse than elsewhere, looking at the look of the end of winter, I don't want her to know about this, such a thing, knowing it will only increase the troubles, and there is no half benefit!

Is this what the world is talking about? Li Xiaonuan squinted her eyes and sighed, like her, when she lived in the Gospel Temple, she couldn't eat enough, the Gu family and her, but there was a trace of recognizable and unrecognizable relationship, so she tried her best to bring her and her parents' coffins back, helped her bury her parents, treated her like her own child, let her study, the courtyard, the girl, the mother-in-law, exactly the same place, and now one or two bird's nests a day are sent over.

If she still complains about the snobbery of her subordinates, disgusted that this bird's nest is not good, and the rock sugar is not sweet, wouldn't it become a joke!

People are snobbish, how can there be people who are not snobbish? It's just big snobbery and small snobbery, why should she not be snobbish in her situation?!

At the end of winter, she has been working as an errand by the side of the ancestor, and she has a strong temperament, so she has to find an opportunity to enlighten her in the future.

Li Xiaonuan leaned on the couch, drank the tea in the cup, and went in to take a nap.

After sleeping for more than half an hour, Li Xiaonuan got up to wash and comb up, sat down at the desk in the west room, covered the thin rice paper on the regular script, and calmly began to write.

The three-character scripture she learned in the morning and morning, as well as the books that Gu Xiao lent her, she had already memorized them, and when the master taught Gu Xiao a lesson, she had already slowly finished writing the two pages left by the master, and this afternoon, it was all her own Chenguang.

Li Xiaonuan wrote the words for half an hour, stood up, walked to the yard, walked around the yard for a while, called the two little girls, commanded them, rearranged the chrysanthemums in the yard, stood under the verandah, and admired it comfortably for a while before entering the house to continue practicing calligraphy.

Someone in the sewing room sent a few curtains over, and at the end of winter, he took the little girl to replace the old curtains, Li Xiaonuan shook it over, and reached out with a smile to caress the light gray muslin curtain that had just been hung, and explained with a smile at the end of winter:

"The girl wears a heavy filial piety, so she has to use such a curtain."

Li Xiaonuan turned his head to look at the end of winter and said seriously:

"I love this muslin, it's soft and dense and it's warm to the touch."

At the end of winter, Li Xiaonuan put down the curtain, returned to the West Chamber with a smile, and continued to shadow the characters.

At the end of winter, as if he remembered something, he followed Li Xiaonuan into the West Chamber, and said in a low voice:

"Girl, the young master's birthday is the sixth day of the next month, and there are only a few days left, we have to think about what gifts to give, don't fall behind, make people laugh."

The pen in Li Xiaonuan's hand paused in mid-air, lowered his eyes and thought about it, turned his head to look at the end of winter, and said with a smile:

"There's nothing to think about, Mama Wei is good at needlework, go back and let her make a few vegetarian purses, fan covers or something, and send them over when the time comes, that's what it means."

At the end of the winter, he raised his eyebrows, and looked at Li Xiaonuan who was about to speak, Li Xiaonuan looked up at her and said solemnly:

"Sister at the end of winter, none of us don't have silver, I'm young, no matter what I give, as long as my heart arrives, my ancestor, Mrs. and Gu Xiao won't pick a gift."

At the end of winter, Li Xiaonuan looked at her calmly, and then said:

"Sister Winter, I know what you want, but think about it, who should I go over in this mansion? Take 10,000 steps back and say, I am the most born to my wife, and I am also the youngest in terms of age, and it is common sense that everything falls last, isn't it? ”

At the end of winter, he opened his mouth, and Li Xiaonuan sighed softly,

"My sister is all for my good, but my sister thinks about it, when I lived in the Gospel Temple with Mama Wei, I couldn't even eat enough, my ancestors and my wife took pity on me for being lonely, helped me bury my parents, and took me in like this, not to mention that the ancient family regarded me as if I had come out, but just kept me warm, I was grateful, and there was nothing to be picky about."

Slightly moved at the end of winter, Li Xiaonuan looked up at her, took her hand and said:

"These days, my sister is good to me in my heart, Xiao Nuan knows, these are Xiao Nuan's blessings, the ancient family treats me like this, it is a good blessing that I can't dream of, sister at the end of winter, let alone a day like now, it is ten times worse than this, I am not half picky!"

At the end of winter, tears came out, and he reached out to hug Li Xiaonuan, and said in a slightly hoarse voice:

"The end of winter knows what the girl means, these two days, it is the end of the winter that is too strong to be left-minded, the girl is right, the girl can rest assured, in the future, the end of winter will accompany the girl to live a quiet life."

Li Xiaonuan's eyes lit up and she laughed, reached out to hug the end of winter, and quickly kissed her on the face.

At the end of winter, he was stunned by Li Xiaonuan's kiss, and it took a moment to react, hugging Li Xiaonuan and "giggling".
