6. Chapter 6
The old lady Wang is indeed willful enough, saying that if you don't give it, you won't give it, and when everyone dispersed from Shou'an Hall, Lu and Su Yan's mother and daughter followed behind them with a wooden box holding various colored fabrics and hairpin ring jewelry.
When Su Zhoucheng returned home in the afternoon, Lu was still a little helpless when he talked about today's incident in Shou'an Hall, rubbed his forehead, and said with a smile: "I asked Ah Shu to bring everything back, but your daughter didn't give any of it to the sisters at home." Thinking of her daughter, she said to herself very seriously: "These are all given by the elders, how can I give them to others." Then he sighed again.
Su Zhoucheng said with a smile: "The elders cherish what they give, how can they give it away." Ah Shuyuan is right, what are you sighing. "He's been for a lifetime, just such a temper. If the daughter happily uses all the things her mother gave her, the old lady will be happy. If it is given to her niece, the old lady will definitely have a knot in her heart, and she will not be happy again.
Lu glanced at her husband with disgust: "It's the same as what your daughter said." She turned her head and asked her personal Yahuan Suyue: "The things we brought back are not packed much, right?" ”
"It's already packed." Su Yue replied.
Lu Shi thought for a while, "Take twenty-two horses of Shu brocade and Yun brocade, plus twenty-two horses of Leizhou Ge cloth, and the fan we brought back, and also take two boxes out." "The things given by my mother-in-law are not good for my concubine and niece, and what they brought back can be shared.
The old lady sent eight horses for each of them, four horses for each of the Liu family and Luo's family, three horses for each of the seven Niang Su Rongs, and one for each of the remaining three nieces, and a few palace fans for each person.
Su Zhoucheng sat together with great interest, holding a teacup and watching his wife Lu ask the girl to divide things, and there was a crisp voice from the girl outside: "Lang Jun, lady, Shi Niang is here." ”
Before the words fell, a little girl dressed in tender green narrow sleeves and a long skirt turned around at the screen at the door, as soon as she saw Su Zhoucheng, she pounced with a smile and said happily: "Daddy came back so early today." ”
Su Zhoucheng touched his little daughter's head lovingly, and asked with a smile: "I heard that Auntie got a lot of good things today?" ”
"Well, it's all from Grandma." Su Yan tilted her head coquettishly and said with a smile: "I also have something to give to Grandma." ”
"What is it?"
"I made my own silk flowers."
Su Zhoucheng knows that the silk flowers made by his daughter are almost real, "Is there only grandma's?" ”
"And my aunt and sisters."
Su Zhoucheng made a sad gesture, "Did little Ah Shu forget her father?" ”
Su Yan hurriedly said: "No, no, Daddy, uncle, and brother all have it." After saying that, she was a little careful. The silk flowers she makes are the same as real flowers, and because they are delicate, they are slow to make. This time it was sent out, so that her inventory was about to bottom out.
Su Zhoucheng saw his daughter's entanglement, but seeing her bitter little face, it was too rare, haha reached out and scratched her little nose, "In this way, thank you Auntie." ”
On the second day, the things were distributed everywhere, and the Su Rong sisters came to thank Su Yan together.
"Tenth sister, thank you very much." As soon as Su Rong saw Su Yan, he took her hand and thanked her, and praised her: "If it weren't for Qingyun saying that it was a silk flower, I would have thought it was a real flower, and it was really exquisitely made." ”
Su Yan asked her sister to sit down in the house, and called again: "Green snow, serve tea." ”
Over there, Su Yunlan didn't sit down, shook the fan in her hand, walked to Su Yan's bookcase, and looked at the room carefully. The westernmost side is obviously Su Yan's bedroom, the middle is the hospitality place, and the east side is the study. What surprised Su Yunlan the most was that in Su Yan's study, there were three shelves full of books.
Su Yunlan's eyes darkened, that is, there were not as many books as Su Yan's in her sixth brother's study. The study utensils on the bookcase are also extraordinary, and on the side of the bookcase, there is a small Bogu partition, on which all kinds of small ornaments, each piece is delicate and small, all of which are extraordinary.
"Hey, what is this?" Su Yunlan picked up the paper that had been cut into different sizes in the corner of the bookcase, and asked a little strangely.
Su Yan looked up and said with a smile: "That's the paper I wrote badly when I practiced calligraphy." ”
Su Yunfu said: "What are you doing with the bad ones?" ”
Su Yan said: "Save it for the next time you practice calligraphy." ”
No one expected Su Yan to give this answer, and the sisters couldn't help but look at each other. Su Rong smiled: "I don't want the tenth sister to be so frugal. ”
"It's the fourth uncle who is honest, and the paper that the tenth sister uses to practice calligraphy and painting, I think I can still afford it." Su Yunlan's eyes showed a little disdain, and she secretly said in her heart, as the daughter of the deputy prime minister, she was so childish.
The sisters were a little unimpressed by this, they were the daughters of famous families, who grew up in the splendid pile since childhood, and they were afraid that the things they ate and used were not enough to cherish the preciousness, and they all felt that they had hurt their face. Don't say that the paper left for writing money is a little longer, and they refuse to use it again, and all of it is destroyed.
Su Yunju said softly: "Tenth sister, don't be like this in the future, you will die of laughter if you are known." ”
Su Yan smiled, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and did not speak. Others are others, what is with her, what is she doing, and how can she use others to comment.
The atmosphere in the room was a little cold for a while, Su Rong saw Su Yan holding a white porcelain tea cup, like a flower Jiaorong was not happy or angry, and the slender jade fingers on the tea cup were more lush than the delicate white porcelain, and couldn't help but move in his heart, and secretly said: I didn't see Su Yan have this habit in my previous life? How has this life changed? Is it because she stayed in Jiangnan for six more years?
"Tenth sister, I heard my father say that he wants to invite the famous pianist Lin Niangzi in the palace to teach us, and my sister wants to learn together?" Su Rong broke the silence with a smile, "Speaking of which, the sisters in the family, in terms of piano skills, the fifth sister is the best, and if you want to come to Lin Niangzi, she will definitely like her." Su Rong glanced at Su Yunju, and sure enough, when she mentioned the piano skills, a hint of smugness flashed in her eyes. Hehe, on the art of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, no one really dares to compare with Su Yan, there will be times when you cry in the future.
Su Yan shook his head, "My mother said, my grandfather and the husband I am looking for will enter the house in three days, and I am afraid that I will not be able to attend Lin Niangzi's piano class." ”
Su Rong was a little envious, Su Yan's maternal ancestor Lu family was the real door of scholars, inherited for hundreds of years. The famous teachers of the Son of Heaven and the princes of the past and present dynasties are all from the Lu family. Now Lu Jianzhang, the patriarch of the Lu clan, is a famous Confucian today, and he is the teacher of today's son. Her fourth uncle is Lu Jianzhang's closed disciple, and he is out of the same door as today's saints, which has won the favor of today's saints and has been reused many times. Lu Jianzhang's eldest son is the prince's teacher, and all the princes of the royal family are his students.
The Lu family has an academy in the imperial capital that has been open for a hundred years, and it can be said that most of the famous families of the Great Xia Dynasty studied here. In the college, celebrities and gentlemen were prepared, and the fourth brother and fifth brother were appointed to Jiangnan with the fourth uncle that day. In the past 12 years, the Lu family has sent a total of 12 gentlemen to Jiangnan to teach their grandsons. I heard that after Su Yan was born, Lu Jianzhang and Lu Taibo personally selected people and sent them to Jiangnan, just to teach their granddaughter. When Su Yan returned to Beijing, the Lu family prepared a female teacher early and went to the house to teach.
The female teachers of the Lu family are not taught by everyone, they specialize in teaching the women of the Lu family. I heard that Emperor Xian wanted to be a princess to enter the Lu Mansion to be taught, but he was resigned by Mrs. Lu. However, the daughters of the Lu family are scarce, and the fourth aunt is the only daughter of the Lu family for three generations, no wonder Mrs. Lu loves it like a treasure, and even her granddaughter looks like an eyeball.
Obviously, everyone here knows the reputation of the female teacher of the Lu family. Su Yunlan, Su Yunju, and Su Yunfu all wanted to follow Su Yan to class, but they were a little embarrassed to say it. The three of them all looked at Su Rong and wanted her to speak first. Who knew that Su Rong's eyes were empty, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Su Yunlan pursed her lips and suddenly asked, "Tenth sister, tomorrow there will be a banquet at home, in order to congratulate the fourth uncle on his promotion, will someone come to your grandfather's family?" ”
Su Yan glanced at Su Yunlan a little strangely, and saw that her face was slightly red, and her apricot eyes were a little shy and nervous, "I will definitely come." ”
"Then Cousin Lu will come too?" Su Yunlan asked cautiously again.
"Cousin Lu?" Su Yan has a lot of questions on her face, she has a lot of cousins, except for those who are not in the imperial capital, they will definitely come. Looking at the appearance of the fourth sister, it seems that she has a deep affection for one of her cousins.
Su Yunfu said quickly: "It's the eleventh lang of the Lu family......" At this point, his face turned red, his eyes were already intoxicated, and his voice also lowered, faint as a mosquito: "The son of Yang." ”
Su Yan: ......
She had the heart to say that she didn't know, but looking at Su Yunlan, Su Yunju, and Su Yunfu, although their faces were stained, they were still staring at themselves with burning eyes, and had to say: "I should come, I went to my grandfather's house with my mother before, and my eleventh brother went out to study before he was here, saying that he would return in the near future, and he should have arrived home." ”
Su Rong nodded when he heard this, "He has returned home, and he will definitely come tomorrow." ”
Su Yan: ...... When her cousin came home, she didn't even know, how did the seventh sister know? Su Yan found that she had been speechless so many times today.
Hearing Su Rong say this, Su Yunlan's face was very ugly, she glared at Su Rong with hatred, got up and said, "Tenth sister, we have been sitting for a long time, we should go back." After speaking, he didn't wait for anyone and walked straight away.
Su Yunfu hurriedly got up and smiled at Su Yan, "Tenth sister, I'm also leaving." After speaking, he chased after Su Yunlan.
The two Su Yunlan sisters left, and Su Rong and Su Yunju also got up to say goodbye.
After a few people left, Su Yan sat in front of the bookcase, holding her cheeks in her hand, frowning slightly, and hesitating: "What Seventh Sister said just now was it for me?" "Otherwise, what would she do with such a good interjection? It sounds like that eleventh cousin has a good relationship with the seventh sister? But this, what does it have to do with her, I don't know!
Lu Xue and Han Fang looked at each other, but they didn't dare to answer. It's just that I can't help but have some opinions about Qi Niang Su Rong in my heart, even if you are in love with Shi Lang, just tell your own mother, what is it in front of our little lady. Our little lady hasn't even seen the face of Eleven Lang, so it's too early to be wary.
