There is a three-tailed golden phoenix comb in the middle of the sister-in-law's bun, and a bright budding lotus jasper hairpin is inserted on the left and right sides. Beauty is beautiful, but it's just a little suspicious of pretending to be tender. Shu Heng couldn't help but whisper to Mrs. Yuan: "These two hairpins are still more suitable for unmarried girls." The corners of Mrs. Yuan's mouth hooked, and she also attached her ear: "Finally, there are some valuable things, and you still don't allow others to show off?" The sister-in-law who was leading the way in front suddenly turned around, stretched out her hand with a sneer: "Madam, is your arm sore?" Let me hold Niu Niu. ”

When Shu Heng heard this, he hurriedly arched his body into Mrs. Yuan's arms and hugged her neck with his arms. Hell, I don't know if you heard the little talk, and now you're going to take the opportunity to pinch me. Mrs. Yuan patted her buttocks with satisfaction: "It's okay, this child is at ease in his own home, and he was told by his grandfather to watch carefully when he just went out." ”

"Grandpa is too careful, what else can go wrong here?" The sister-in-law smiled unabated, but she didn't chase it anymore, but said: "Our old lady reads it every day, saying that she hasn't seen the big girl for several days." I heard that the lady was coming, so I waited in the flower hall. They also sent me to urge. He laughed again.

Mrs. Yuan also smiled: "Am I not?" After seeing the master, I came to see the old lady. "These four old ladies are the later fillers of the four old men, and now they are still in their thirties, quiet and smooth, and it is said that when they were young, they were also a sweet and pure beauty. Of course, I can't see anything now. She is the later mother-in-law, she gave birth to a son of the third master, but she has to deal with the son and daughter-in-law left by the two ex-wives, and there is a flowery old husband.

As soon as Shuheng entered the door, he was pulled into his arms to touch his head and pinch his face, and after rummaging and rubbing, the fourth old lady stuffed a snack into her hand. Shuheng pinched a few times upside down, feeling the melted syrup making the palm sticky, she was still sick to her stomach for the tea in the second room, and the touch of the palm made the symptom more serious, she immediately turned around, smiled sweetly, and couldn't help but say that she stuffed the snack into the mouth of the fourth grandmother: "Little grandmother eats, Niuniu feeds grandmother." ”

"Huh? Uh, uh-huh-" The old lady was busy swallowing, wiping her lips, smiling on her face, and patting her head in her hands, and Shuheng was anxious for her.

"It's strange that the eldest lady is sensible and is the pistachio of the grandfather and wife. I rejoiced when I saw it. The old lady finally swallowed her snack and spoke. The grandfather supports the patriarch's room, but there is only this one girl. It's also a shame that the girl coaxes her grandfather to be happy every day, it's really a living baby in the long room. All the daughters-in-law in the house echoed each other. Shuheng always felt that something was wrong, and when Mrs. Yuan heard that "there is only one girl in the total", she began to sneer in her heart. These people, soft nails and hard nails don't know how many times they have touched them, but they always don't give up.

"How's Grandpa doing?" "Okay, my grandfather was weak when he was young, and now he has gradually recovered, and he has been fine for most of the year, and he has never coughed." Mrs. Yuan coped with it easily. The fourth old lady really said: "In this case, you have to work harder, now that even the youngest third room has added a grandson, you little couple have to hurry up." Hehe. ”

At this time, there were not only daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law in the house, but also some girls in the pavilion, which was too disrespectful. But if the elderly really want to be thick-skinned, rely on their seniority, and rely on the old to sell the old, then the younger generation is really unable to do it. Mrs. Yuan knew that if she said that her grandfather had not been in good health recently, she would say: "Oh, the character of such a talent is partial, and the partiality is so that people can't let go, in the end, they will soon have offspring roots, so that people can breathe a sigh of relief." "Either way, you can turn the subject.

Mrs. Yuan feigned shame and hatred: "Oh, uncle, you are making fun of your nephew again." This matter still depends on the fate, where there is a want. The fourth grandmother's smile became more and more gentle: "That is, there is no news now?" Hey, in my opinion, we are women, and the continuation of the descendants is originally an internal matter, and everyone in the big clan attaches great importance to blood, and does not want to be a small family, but it is a child who is born out of the house, and it is the same as his own son in front of him and recorded in his own name, and it also saves the harsh and domineering voice. ”

These words were sent for Sister Lan, and she didn't come here. Mrs. Yuan said yes in her mouth, but said in her heart: I just want to carry an aunt, and it must not be a person from the old fourth room. Besides, the grandfather is very angry because of his sister-in-law, and he has a bad impression of the role of a concubine. Besides, my grandfather himself is not in a hurry about his son-in-law, so why should I find myself unhappy?

There is a Sister Lan, one is to block the mouth of the people (Mrs. Yuan has always known the importance of fame, but when she is in the boudoir, she is irretrievably unafraid, but now she is for her daughter, for the sake of her husband, she has changed her temper slightly, she doesn't want people to say that Shuheng has a jealous mother, and she can't give birth to a son and doesn't give her husband Zhang Luo's room. Second, he does care about the face of his elders. But we eat and drink with Sister Lan, that is the face we give to the uncle of the fourth room, but if you have a face to put on a shelf, then we should still do something.

"My Yue'er, last time the fortune teller approved the eight characters, saying that she had gold in her life, and she recruited her younger brothers. No, it brought me two boys. "It was the sister-in-law who spoke, the pomegranate flower was originally a symbol of many children, and her stomach was also named after her. I got a daughter in the first year of marriage, and I got a pair of twins in the third year. She is now bent on recognizing Shuyue to Mrs. Yuan as her goddaughter, and every time she asks for peace, she has to mention it.

"This time the old lady did her birthday, she embroidered a bed net, a set of shoes and socks, and a purse sachet, that work was done, tsk, it's not that I boast, it's really bright." While laughing, she took Shuheng's hand again: "Miss, do you want to learn from Sister Yue'er?" Her palms were warm, a little sweaty, Shuheng was held by her, and she always felt tired in her heart, and she regretted a little why she didn't pretend to sleep.

At this moment, the second sister-in-law Lian, who came later, listened carefully outside the curtain, hurriedly came in, and said: "In my opinion, the seventh aunt is missing a star in her life, and she has to have a son to fill the vacancy of this star, and this golden boy will slowly reincarnate." "Gotcha! The first one still euphemistically said that he would admit his daughter, and this was directly going to send his son. This statement is too abrupt, aren't you changing the law to say that Mrs. Yuan is destined not to give birth to a son? Could it be that you still want your son to be the son of the family? The people in the room frowned, laughed, and pretended not to hear, all looking at Mrs. Yuan and the four old ladies.

The second sister-in-law of Lian didn't realize it, or she felt that she was also cheeky, and said to herself: "The three sons of our family, Brother Song is older, and the children are all gone, needless to say." But Brother Bai'er and Brother Shan'er are both smart and handsome, and last time in the family study, Mr. also praised Brother Shan'er's children's skills. It just so happened that the other person was there, so I told him to come and see what I saw, why not—" "Ahem." The fourth old lady coughed twice fiercely, and her eyes glared straight away. The second sister-in-law of Lian shrank twice as if she had been poked by a needle, and then she pouted and sat down on the side unwillingly.

"This ancient book says well, since Pangu opened the sky, there are wise men and wise men between heaven and earth, and there are also reckless men and traitors, the former and the aura of heaven and earth are born, and the latter comes down with yin and evil spirits. Grandpa is now twenty-five, and I am also spending my life in the letter of the year, begging for a child, I am not in a hurry, I am afraid that I will not get a good baby. In my opinion, if the seedlings are not good and the roots are not right, then most of them will ruin the family style without learning and no skills, and it is better to have children than to have no children at this time. My grandfather and I have the same mind, and we both think that our son is going to be born, but it is not born casually. Mrs. Yuan's apricot eyes squinted, scanning everyone, and the corners of her lips were a little sneering to cover up. The implication is obvious: You have sons, but which of your sons has raised great talents? What benefits does this give you?

Yuan's long house has always been not prosperous, and the old man himself only has one son and two daughters, and one daughter is still a concubine. He died young, leaving behind orphans and widows, and he was very bullied in the middle of the big family. Shuheng's father looked at Wen Qi like jade, and he was like the wind, but in fact, he was ruthless and resolute, he didn't make a move, and as soon as he made a move, he used his strong wrist to collapse two dissenting uncles, and the houses in the clan finally didn't dare to underestimate it. But now that Grandpa Guo has been married for six or seven years, but he still has no son, some people have inevitably begun to think that they shouldn't have. The fourth uncle insisted on sending an Aunt Lan to his father, was it just to repay the favor? When she thought about it like this, she felt that the pixiu fire on her neck was hot, and she wanted to tear it off immediately.

The atmosphere in the room had begun to cool down, but Mrs. Yuan, the core of the storm, had no intention of easing her feelings at all, and she obviously didn't plan to pay attention to these women who "had children at will". The slender ten fingers proudly held the small cover tea, and the lid of the cup rubbed the cup body from time to time, making a piercing sound, but he didn't take a sip for a long time. In the end, it was still a young daughter-in-law wearing a royal blue cardigan and a bean green Luo skirt who broke the deadlock with a smile and put the breakthrough point on Shuheng. "It's still Mrs. who is exquisite, it turns out that there is such a university to ask about pregnancy and childbirth, and today, I can be regarded as a long insight. No wonder Niuniu is handsome and smart, it turns out that she is a good soul. ”

Shuheng looked at this uncle and sister-in-law, and then looked at Mrs. Yuan's face, and decided to be a little shameless, so he replied very "arrogantly": "Of course!" For a while, everyone's eyes stopped on her, so Shuheng decided to be even more shameless: "I was originally smart and handsome, and I knew at a glance that I was born to my grandfather and wife!" How can others be smart and handsome casually? Mrs. Yuan pinched her dough and smiled lovingly, and everyone in the room laughed out and took the opportunity to step down. However, the fourth old lady looked at Shuheng while laughing, and was secretly shocked: If you talk casually, it's fine, but if you do it intentionally, observe the words and look at the situation to turn the situation, this doll is inevitably not simple. She looked at Shuheng again, this girl was climbing her little fat hand on the crook of Mrs. Yuan's arm to be coquettish, and suddenly felt that she was thinking too much.

No matter what everyone thinks, Shuheng doesn't plan to stay any longer, she doesn't like the smell in this room very much, but now that the birthday banquet hasn't been opened, she can't leave under the excuse of "I miss my father", so she can only go outside the house to breathe first. She pointed casually at a pomegranate tree in full bloom: "Butterfly!" What a big butterfly flew by! I want butterflies. Then he slipped off the chair without saying anything, and ran out with a staggering Shanshan, Mrs. Yuan seemed to know her daughter's thoughts, and did not stop her, but only gave the red sleeves behind her a look and asked her to follow.

The garden in this house can not be compared with the solemnity of the Dingguo Mansion, small and small, even if it is specially dressed for the old lady's longevity, dressed in red and green, surrounded by gauze flowers, but the carved beams fade and lose color, and there is a dilapidated weather, but fortunately, when encountering all things, flowers and plants, green trees are shady, and they grow to squeeze and resist heat and liveliness, and this vitality and liveliness make up for the lack of homestead. A young man who was full of water and water appeared under this lively grass and trees.

"Yo, Brother Shan." The book balance staggered over. The boy was dressed in a half-new blue shirt, thin and thin, with big black and white eyes that looked very energetic, and when he saw Shuheng, he grinned, a little mischievous, and at this moment he was carrying a cage, and a red-billed green parrot was fluttering in the cage. I still play with birds, and I don't know if I was sold by my mother. Shu Heng smiled treacherously: Second sister-in-law Lian, second sister-in-law Lian, if you have to find my mother unhappy, then I will have to make some trouble for you.
