"This is Yiyao, yo, it's so big, I remember that my sister-in-law was so big when she left, and more than 20 years have passed in a blink of an eye." The eldest aunt Cheng is much more eloquent than the second aunt, she has been accompanying her uncle to do some small business in Huizhou, and she has a lot of contact, pulling Chu Yiyao to talk enthusiastically, and smiled at the old lady, "Mother, you see that this child is a little similar to the sister-in-law at that time." ”

"You talk, I'll go next door and see my cousin." Chu Yiyao was a little unaccustomed to Cheng's sudden polite enthusiasm, and after greeting the old lady, she went to Xing Zishu's house, where the three sisters were sitting there chatting, especially Xing Ziluo, looking at the new wedding dress prepared in the room with a look of envy.

"Second sister, it's so good that you can marry into such a good family." However, after more than a year, the second sister was able to marry into the Zhang family, and I listened to my grandmother all the way, this Zhang family is a big family, and the second sister is still a scholar who wants to marry, and it is possible to be the wife of an official family in the future, which they never dared to think of at the beginning.

"You can also find a good family." Xing Zishu smiled and comforted her sister, Xing Ziluo couldn't put it down, touched the wedding dress that came back, and muttered, "How can you be so lucky as the second sister." ”

"What are you talking about?" Chu Yiyao walked in, took the box from Bao Sheng's hand and put it in front of Xing Zishu and said with a smile, "This is for Sister Zishu." ”

Xing Zishu was a little stunned when she took the box, so heavy. When I opened it, I was startled, and looked up at Chu Yiyao, "This..."

"If there are sisters in the family who are married, they all have to give this marriage, you are welcome, even if the Zhang family's family background is better than ours, you have to marry in a beautiful way." Chu Yiyao prepared a set of jewelry items for Xing Zishu, and prepared a pair of dragon and phoenix gold bracelets and two pieces of mutton fat jade pendants on the next layer of the box. ”

When her daughter married into the Cheng family, she naturally prepared things for her daughter, but when she married into the criminal family, the criminal family was just the most ordinary peasant household in the countryside, and her dowry was naturally not much better, so this for her daughter was still a separate patchwork, which was naturally not as good as Chu Yiyao's whole set.

"Yiyao, this is too valuable, I can't ask for these things." The dowry that my father and mother prepared for themselves was only a little, and what Chu Yiyao gave out with this hand was worth a lot of things, where is the use of the marriage between sisters so valuable, Xing Zishu shirked and said no.

"What nonsense are you talking about, how can you marry and say you don't want it, you don't want my eldest cousin to marry in the second half of the year, and I don't dare to ask for her like this." Chu Yiyao pulled her hand back, looked at Xing Ziyu and teased, the latter immediately smiled, and echoed, "Yes, Zishu, if you don't accept it, when I get married, Yiyao will give it to me, won't I dare to accept it." ”

"What are you talking about?" Xing Zishu glared at them with disgust, but Xing Ziluo saw it, snapped the box shut, and held Xing Zishu coquettishly and said, "I really want to envy me!" ”

Several people were amused by the way she spoke.

In this joyful atmosphere, in the middle of July, Xing Zishu got married, the small courtyard of the criminal family was full of guests, very lively, Zhang Ziling was wearing the red clothes of the groom's official, standing at the door with spirit, in the face of the difficulties of these brothers and sisters, he could solve it with ease, and let people come in after receiving the red envelope, the eldest aunt Cheng This is the first time to see her son-in-law, the more she looks at it, the more satisfied she is, and she can't close her mouth when she smiles.

Xing Zishu was carried out of the house by the eldest brother Xing Wenang, and after sending the sedan chair, the uncle poured a basin of water on the welcoming team, and the married daughter splashed the water.

The old lady was helped back to the house by the Yang family with moist eyes, she wanted to live here until Xing Ziyu got married and then returned to Huizhou, and Uncle Xing and they were going back after Xing Zishu returned to the door on the third day, and no one in Huizhou's shop was worried about a day.

After the guests were sent away, Chu Yiyao was also ready to leave with her sister-in-law, and the eldest aunt Cheng stopped them at this time, first looking at Qiao Cong'an, maybe only from the mouth of the second uncle, she heard that the Chu family's business house is now managed by Chu Yiyao, and then looked at Chu Yiyao, "Yiyao, the eldest aunt wants to ask you for something." ”

"Auntie, please speak." Looking at the smiling faces, Chu Yiyao estimated that she was going to talk about the two cousins, as expected, the Cheng family mentioned the way out for the two concubines, but she didn't want them to stay in Huizhou and fight with her eldest son for the things of the criminal family, so she thought about leaving them in Jinling, and it was best never to go back.

"Isn't your second uncle here to help you, Wen Yu and Wen Zhi are not young, it's time for them to do some work, let them go to your shop to help, and learn from your second uncle."

"Auntie, I'm afraid this thing won't work, the guys in the business house have been doing it for five or six years, and the most ordinary guys are moving goods on the dock, I don't think the two cousins can afford to do this, as for my shops, they are originally small businesses, and there is no need for so many people." Let them go to the shop to do things, it is better to give them the silver and let them go back to Huizhou to retire early, if she agrees, she will be determined to find trouble for herself.

Cheng didn't expect Chu Yiyao to refuse so simply, the smile on his face paused, and Chu Yiyao continued, "It's most appropriate to learn these from your uncle, why bother in Jinling, you are not familiar with life, and they are not easy to call the shots of the second uncle, so I am even more difficult to call the shots." ”

"Your uncle's business is small." Cheng smiled stupidly, "Huizhou is a small place. ”

"Uncle and aunt are the first time they come back to Jinling, don't think about these things, have fun, the family has been busy recently, and I won't accompany you from An." Qiao Cong'an directly bypassed the topic and said with a smile to Cheng's family, pulled Chu Yiyao to say goodbye to the old lady, and the two of them went out to get into the carriage and go back to Chu's house.

When I got home, I didn't see my son in Tinglan Courtyard, so I sent a maid to look for it, and it was really in Huaishan, moving from Huaishan to Chu's house, Chu Yingzhu was becoming less and less attached to her, Qiao Cong'an was a little melancholy, and at the same time relieved, the twist on his son's body that was similar to a little girl's house was gone, and the six-year-old child was now talking a lot, but she didn't forget to bring a sentence of Uncle Huai in her mouth, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"Young grandmother, little young master will settle accounts now." Qing'er pinched her shoulder behind her and smiled, "The little young master will soon be able to follow the eldest lady to the business house and share the worries of the Chu family." ”

"It's still early, Yiyao will be sooner than him." A smile appeared on Qiao Cong'an's face, he had just settled the score. She remembered that when she first married into the Chu family, Chu Yiyao was only five years old, and she was already very slippery when she followed Mrs. Chu, and when she was six or seven years old, she liked to compare with Xianggong who was great, she had to win, and if she lost, she pestered Xianggong and never let go.

"The little young master is no one to teach, the eldest lady still has the old lady with her at that time, the little young master is talented and intelligent, and he will learn it quickly." Qiao Cong'an listened to Qing'er's words, laughing but not speaking...

In the evening, Chu Yingzhu returned to Tinglan Courtyard, covered in sweat, and said that he had just learned a set of boxing with Huaishan, and he was not busy eating, so he had to call Qiao Cong'an to show it first, and then go to take a bath. After washing, he came out to eat with Qiao Cong'an, and after eating a big bowl full of land, he said that it was not enough, so the nurse added a small half bowl to him.

"Eat slowly, I'll go to your aunt's to eat later." Qiao Cong'an looked at him amusedly, gobbling up and reminded.

"Then I'll go to my aunt's and come back and write." Chu Yingzhu put the speed of eating, thought about it and said.

"Little master, don't write today, you've studied for a day." The nurse on the side felt sorry for him, how hard this boxing was, and Huaishan was also strict.

"How can I do it, I can't stop practicing words just because I learned boxing today, what my aunt said, today's thing, today's end!" Chu Yingzhu put down the bowl and shouted, Qiao Cong'an motioned to the nurse to wipe his mouth and wash his hands, and patted him on the back, "Don't run, walk over slowly." ”

"Mother, I want to eat the bean cake you made tomorrow." Chu Yingzhu turned around and hugged her coquettishly, Qiao Cong'an touched his head and said softly, "Okay, my mother will make it for you tomorrow." ”

After getting Qiao Cong'an's approval, Chu Yingzhu went out to walk around the garden, then went to Chu Yiyao's for a walk, and went to bed obediently after coming back to practice calligraphy.

The next morning, without the nurse's urging, Chu Yingzhu got up and went to Huaishan to learn boxing after breakfast.

Qiao Cong'an asked Qing'er to take the finished pastries to Chu Yingzhu to eat, put down the food box and waited for Qing'er to leave, Chu Yingzhu hurriedly pulled Huaishan to take out the plates in the food box and put them in front of him, and said like a treasure, "Uncle, eat it quickly, this is made by my mother." ”

Huai Shan looked at the three plates of delicate pastries, and then looked at Chu Yingzhu with a look of 'you try it', and picked up a piece with a smile and put it in his mouth. The pastries made by themselves are always more than those bought outside, and the entrance is a strong bean fragrance, and a thin layer of syrup is poured on top, mixed with a piece of Huaishan actually ate a faint milky fragrance.

Chu Yingzhu ate two pieces and looked up at the surprise on Huaishan's face, and asked with a smile, "Is it delicious, my mother doesn't usually make this, but she made a lot of it today." "What Qiao Cong'an sent over was obviously the weight of two people, where did Chu Yingzhu eat so much alone.

Huai Shan touched his head and smiled, this taste is so familiar, just like the rice cakes that Aman used to make for them to eat when he was a child, sprinkle fine powdered sugar on them, and after steaming, it will become a thin syrup, and then sprinkle with steamed and ground bean flour. At that time, Ah Ling liked to eat this very much, and every time he heard that Aman was going to eat this, he would sit at the kitchen door with a small bench, his eyes looking directly at the smoking stove, and secretly swallowing his saliva.

She told him that she didn't remember a lot of things, but she didn't forget her favorite taste when she was a child, and she could make the flavor she ate back then, does this mean that even if she forgets, their past still has indelible traces in her heart, including him.
