The Zhao family is still very lively this year, and when it comes to the Shangyuan Festival, Zhao Changqing is still like in previous years, with Mr. Su, Li family, sister and brother Ling Teng, and a bunch of children to the lantern market to enjoy the lanterns.

It's just that Zhao Changqing didn't go to the Denglou to make poems and grab the lottery this year, and when he had a good time, everyone went home together.

Zhao Changning asked, "Sister, shall we go to Master Ouyang's house tomorrow?" ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Didn't you already go there yesterday?" "The gifts for the Lantern Festival have been sent in advance.

Zhao Changning asked quietly, "Sister, did you quarrel with Brother Chu?" ”

Zhao Changqing's face darkened slightly, and he coaxed him, "Gongzi Chu is going to marry a daughter-in-law, we can't be like before, you know?" ”

"Why? Isn't it possible that if he marries a daughter-in-law, he can't associate with us? ”

Mr. Su called Zhao Changning over and taught him a few words in a low voice, and Zhao Changning obediently shut up.

Zhao Rong stared at Zhao Changqing, and felt incredible in her heart, could it be that Zhao Changqing actually had a heart for Chu Yu? This heart is also a little higher! It's really a rework, when it is impressive!

Zhao Changqing didn't bother to pay attention to Zhao Rong at all, after going home, he said a few words and went back to his room to rest, the next day Zhao Changqing didn't go out, holding the book at night to eliminate the punishment, he heard a slight footsteps on the roof, Zhao Changqing's face was pale, put down the book and lifted the thin quilt on his lap to go out of the door, just arrived in the courtyard and looked at the roof, and saw a black object falling into his arms without seeing anyone clearly.

Zhao Changqing was startled, she didn't have the ability to fly the eaves and walk the wall now, seeing that Yongfu Yonglu had followed, Zhao Changqing glanced at the roof again, hugged the things in his arms, and said, "It's nothing, go back." ”

When I returned to the house and looked carefully, I realized that the object I picked up was a black leather bag, and when I opened it, there was a box inside, and when I opened it again, it was a smaller box, and when I opened it again, it was a small box, Zhao Changqing was already in a bad mood today, and he was furious when he saw this, "This thief who kills a thousand knives!" ”

Yongfu said, "I'll open it for the girl." ”

Zhao Changqing said, "No, I'll do it myself." "Except for that guy, no one came over the wall in the middle of the night to give her something. Open to the ninth box, there is a crystal clear multicolored glass lamp inside. Yongfu exclaimed, "This lamp is so beautiful." ”

Although he had guessed it in his heart, when he really saw something, Zhao Changqing still felt that his throat was dry and his heart was beating faster, and there was nothing wrong with his body. Zhao Changqing felt that she was a very conservative person, at this time, her brain seemed to be out of control, her heart was sour, her eyes were hot, and what she wanted to say was not at all like what she said, she actually stammered, "Good looking is good-looking, just, it's useless, hang for a night, tomorrow, again, again, and then return to others." If someone has the ability to send things openly, such sneaky and unseemly, I am not rare. The last few sentences slipped smoothly, and his cheeks were still red with shame, overwhelming the peach blossoms.

Chu Yu was blowing a little cold wind outside, and said in his heart: It's not uncommon for you to hang for a night! Hum!

Yongfu didn't dare to say much, just lit the glass lamp, Zhao Changqing's eyes couldn't be pulled out of the lamp, and he didn't have the heart to read anymore, his heart beat for a while, he barely calmed down, and told Yongfu dryly, "Tell Yonglu to be tighter." ”

Yongfu replied in a low voice and smiled, "Don't worry, girl, Yonglu is not a talkative person." ”

"That's good." Send the girls down.

Zhao Changqing looked at the lights all night, and the next day he quietly told Ling about it, and scared Ling again, and said, "This hasn't stopped yet." ”

Zhao Changqing knew what to expect, and he had regained his composure, and said, "Mother, just rest assured, I will send someone to Sister Chu, and this matter will not be done to our family." ”

Ling said, "That's good. He secretly asked his daughter, "You haven't met with Gongzi Chu again, have you?" ”

"No, I said I wouldn't see each other again, and I wouldn't see each other again." Zhao Changqing's attitude was very resolute, and Ling was a little relieved, and sighed, "It's a pity that you are young, otherwise it would be good to set a family affair for you." ”

Zhao Changqing didn't speak.

In the evening, Ling Shi chatted with her husband, "What do you mean by Chu Gongzi?" Always come to provoke our Changqing. ”

Zhao Yong asked, "Just give the glass lamp to Gongzi Chu and send it back." ”

"Changqing has sent someone to Miss Chu's house." Ling sighed, "If people know, our Changqing's reputation will be ruined." ”

Zhao Yong sighed, "Let's see." ”

General Chu sent people to Chu Yu's side, although he was not close to Chu Yu's body, he also knew that Chu Yu sent things back to him, General Chu was very happy, and said secretly: This Zhao girl is a serious girl.

In February, she participated in the wedding of Second Sister Ling, and the serious girl Zhao Changqing got another errand to praise Third Sister Ling's ceremony.

Zhao Changqing is also thirteen years old this year, she was born tall, the place where she should have developed has been developed for two years, she has the appearance of a young girl, not to mention the skin is smooth, long eyebrows and apricot eyes, Yao nose and peach cheeks, and beautiful facial features.

Third Sister Ling was half complaining and half jealous, "My sister is going to steal the limelight from me today." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "This is wronged, the second sister and Lu Shi are also my praisers, and the third sister has seen it." If I don't clean up and tidy, I will lose my sister's face. ”

Sister Liang smiled, "I haven't seen you for a long time, and Sister Qing is becoming more and more prominent." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "The third sister made fun of me, and Miss Liang also made fun of me." ”

Mrs. Liang is the maiden sister-in-law of Mrs. Ling's second wife, and she has also heard of Zhao Changqing, so she smiled and said, "This is Miss Qing, right?" This looks really watery, but there is someone's home? ”

Ling's heart was displeased, and he smiled, "My girl is still young, but it is Miss Liang, I heard that she is one year older than the third sister, which one must be there?" ”

Mrs. Liang's face was slightly embarrassed, "I'm not in a hurry, I want to keep her for a few more years." ”

Ling Shi seemed to smile, "Mrs. Liang is not in a hurry, and I am even less anxious." ”

Second Mrs. Ling smiled, "Yes, Changqing is still young." A few days ago, I passed by Liyu Street and saw the shop of the young girl, which was so wide and the business was good. Now, Mrs. Ling's two eyes are paying attention to Zhao Changqing's private property, and she feels that Zhao Changqing is really capable.

Zhao Changqing really couldn't stand the eyes of Second Mrs. Ling looking at her like a gold ingot, and hurriedly said, "Second aunt, don't say that, it's not my shop, it's just a fluke to take a few shares, in fact, I don't understand anything, it's all run by others." ”

"If you have shares, then you have your share." Second Mrs. Ling smiled, "It's just that I think it's three shops, why is it only one and a half?" ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Now that we sell steamed buns and braised pork, one and a half is enough." The other half was set aside to sell the fruit, but it had not yet been packed up, so it was not opened for the time being. ”

Second Mrs. Ling smiled, "So it's going to be two shops?" ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Let's plan for the time being, even if we don't make two shops, we don't need such a big place, and we can rent it out separately, and we will collect some rent for a year, which is better than putting it in vain." ”

Second Mrs. Ling smiled, "Yes." ”

Zhao Changqing didn't want to talk about himself anymore, so he turned to Mrs. Ling and said, "On the Shangyuan Festival, we went to visit the lantern market, first met the eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law, and after walking for a while, we met the second sister and the second brother-in-law. Obviously, the wedding date is set for February, and the second brother-in-law has to call the second sister to go out to see the lights. The most pitiful fourth sister hurriedly said when she saw us, 'Sister Qing, I'll go shopping with you, I won't go shopping with them'. ”

Fourth Sister Ling said, "In the past, the eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law always called me when they went out, but fortunately, there was a second sister talking together at that time. Since the eldest sister got married, the second sister also wanted me to go out, if it wasn't for my cleverness, I would have to lose them. ”

Mrs. Ling laughed, "You girls, you know how to laugh at your sisters, you also have this day." ”

Second Mrs. Ling said, "Who has the blessing of the sister-in-law, and the son-in-law of Shangyuan Festival is vying to give you a gift." Your aunt has to soften her hands when she receives gifts. The latter sentence is addressed to the girls.

Everyone laughed.

For a while, the eldest sister Ling and the second sister Ling came, and the men had their own Ling family father and son to entertain, and the two sisters, especially the newly married second sister Ling, were teased a lot. Fortunately, Second Sister Ling is a broad-hearted person, not to mention that she and Xu Jian do have a very good relationship, so she just listened with the corners of her lips slightly curled.

Mrs. Liang asked Sister Ling again, "Is there a good news?" ”

Zhao Changqing really felt that Mrs. Liang's mouth didn't know how to be born, so she was naturally annoying. Sister Ling has been married for more than a year, because she is gentle and obedient, and has a good relationship with her mother-in-law and husband, but it is the same, and she has never been happy. Mrs. Liang really can't open any pot and mention which pot, Second Mrs. Ling felt that it was inappropriate, and smiled, "The children are still young, what are you anxious about, the eldest sister is only eighteen this year." ”

Sister Ling's face was slightly red, and she didn't say much.

Zhao Changqing is a person who has studied a little medical book, she has not yet experienced it and can tell whether a person is pregnant or not, but Sister Ling is walking more gently and carefully than usual, and seeing that Sister Ling's complexion is not as usual, Zhao Changqing knows it in her heart and does not say anything. However, although Zhao Changqing didn't talk much, when eating at the banquet, Sister Ling's face changed greatly as soon as she smelled the meat and she retched, everyone who came over knew what was going on, especially Mrs. Ling, her happy voice changed. Second Mrs. Ling was also happy for Sister Ling, and instructed Yahuandao, "Pick up a few plain dishes and take them to the house for the eldest sister to eat." ”

Sister Ling smiled, "Second aunt, I'm fine." ”

Mrs. Ling smiled, "How are you okay?" I think you just have good news. It's still your third sister Wang, but it's revealed today, you stupid boy. ”

Everyone was happy and lively again.

After a day of excitement at Ling's second uncle's house, when the Zhao family said goodbye, Xu Jian also went over to say hello, "Uncle has drunk, it's better to take the car." Helped Zhao Yong get into the car, and said, "My cousin and cousin are free to come and play with your second sister, and she is also bored at home." Auntie, you're good to go. ”

On the way, Ling couldn't help but say, "Brother Lian'er is sensible." ”

Zhao Yong smiled, "Da Lang is just shy, and his heart is the same." "I'm talking about Sister Ling's husband, Chen Dalang.

Ling smiled, "Yes." Da Lang treats his eldest sister, which is very considerate. "Today, I know that Sister Ling has a body, and Chen Dalang's restlessness makes people laugh.

Xu Lian is exquisite, sociable, and has a sweet mouth, not to mention his nephew, and the second sister of Tongling is now blending oil in honey. In the heart of Uncle Ling and Mrs. Ling, the second son-in-law is more considerate, but the eldest son-in-law is also a sincere person, so the family is harmonious and beautiful, and Mrs. Ling has been talking with a smile in the past two years. Third Sister Ling and Lu Li, Uncle Ling's family was the earliest to come and the latest, and they sincerely helped Zhang Luo, and the relationship between the two rooms is now extremely harmonious.

Second Mrs. Ling sighed at night, "The fourth sister is still young, and the sister-in-law's affairs are more than half over. ”

Second Uncle Ling smiled, "Second sister's family affairs, let's settle this year." ”

Second Mrs. Ling sighed, "You think I'm not in a hurry. However, compared with the eldest sister and the second sister, the eldest brother of the Chen family eats public meals, and although his job is not high, oil and water are indispensable. Not to mention Brother Xu's family, he is a scholar, and his family also lives in a big house, surrounded by his mother-in-law. Our three sisters, how can we not be worse than our two sisters. But you see, none of these people who asked me about it made anyone happy. He complained again, "What's even more annoying, there are many people inquiring about Changqing today." ”

Second Uncle Ling smiled, "Changqing is young, so it's just a matter of inquiring." ”

In fact, what made Second Mrs. Ling angry was that the people who inquired about Zhao Changqing were obviously more classy than those who inquired about Third Sister Ling. Second Mrs. Ling said sourly, "Just looking at Brother Lian'er and Second Sister falling in love like this, you know the benefits of my aunt being a parent." ”

Second Uncle Ling said, "My son's affairs are not in a hurry, I will discuss with you seriously, I am thinking of finding a family for the third sister to study." Even if my family background is ordinary, I like to read people. ”

Second Mrs. Ling frowned and thought for a while, "I don't have a student, so I ask about my daughter." ”

Second Uncle Ling is the head of the family in the end, his wife makes the decision on small things, and he has also thought about big things, Second Uncle Ling asked with a smile, "How about the students studying in the official school?" ”

Mrs. Ling said, "If you are studying in the official school, I am willing." It's just that it also depends on the character of the family, as long as the person is promising, even if it is poor, let's grit our teeth and accompany the girl more. She has survived for a few years, and there is always a good life. ”

Second Uncle Ling also meant this, the husband and wife discussed it, and Second Uncle Ling said, "Wait for me to ask Ah Teng." ”

It is a lifelong event related to his sister, Ling Teng is really doing his best, his parents asked, Ling Teng thought about it for two days, and said, "Daddy, how is Lin Hao?" ”

Second Mrs. Ling immediately said, "That's too poor." ”

Second Uncle Ling has always believed in his son's vision, ignored his wife's words, and said, "Let's talk about it specifically." ”

Ling Teng said, "Lin Hao is sixteen this year, just one year older than his sister, his grades have always been very good, he entered the official school earlier than me, and he gets honors every year, but his family is poorer, in fact, there are also one or two hundred acres of land, but last time his mother was sick, he drank ginseng soup and tossed all the money in the family." We often go back and forth, and I heard him say that he wants to try it next year. Even Mr. Gakusato said he could give it a try. is Lin Hao, and he is not the nerd who can't wait for foreign affairs. Mrs. Lin's illness has been cured for Mr. Su, Lin Hao's mother is filial, and it is not easy for his mother to bring him up. My father and mother only look at Qing's sister's grandmother, and I think Mrs. Lin understands the reason very well, and she is about the same as the old lady of the Zhao family. ”

Second Uncle Ling was already a little willing in his heart, and said, "Old Lady Zhao is a reasonable person, originally when your aunt was not married, Old Lady Zhao took your uncle to live in the main house, and your grandfather and grandmother were thinking that your aunt would probably live in the West Chamber, or the East Chamber. Who knew that the old lady of his family asked us to move to the back yard by ourselves according to the size of the main house. Less than half a year after your aunt got married, the old lady called your aunt housekeeper. Over the years, your aunt has been so happy, and your uncle is now also a six-rank official. ”

Ling Teng said, "I think so too. If you want me to say, this family business, now mention that the Lin family is not as good as our family, and when Lin Haogong is famous, it is not easy for my sister to find such a family business. ”

Listening to the father and son, Second Mrs. Ling was moved again and asked, "What you said is so good, what does the Lin family mean?" ”

Ling Teng said, "Mrs. Lin was sick last year, and her health was not as good as before. I think Mrs. Lin also wants to marry Lin Hao earlier, and she also has someone to take care of Lin Hao. is Lin Hao himself, who did not have the idea of marrying and serving his mother earlier. The family affair has been in the past two years, and I will inquire about it, if there is a door, I will tell my mother again. ”

Second Mrs. Ling smiled, "Okay." You have to take it to heart, I have discussed it with your father, don't look at rich or poor, as long as people are good. ”

Ling Teng smiled, "How can I not take my sister's lifelong event to heart?" It's just the same, now that my sister is older, I have a good relationship with Lin Hao, he is not the kind of villain who admires wealth, not to mention that our family is not a rich family, if the marriage is completed, I have to ask my sister to restrain her temper. ”

Second Mrs. Ling chirped, "Your sister is not a tiger!" If you are all like you fool, you will not have to live your life! ”

Ling Teng smiled, "I'll ask if I have the opportunity, mother, you just wait to listen to the letter." ”

Mrs. Lin's impression of the Ling family is really not bad, because Mr. Su cured Mrs. Lin's illness, Mrs. Lin took Lin Hao to the Zhao family to thank her in person. After coming and going, the two families got to know each other. Mrs. Lin and the Ling family don't talk much, she and Mrs. Zhao are very talkative, both of them are widows with sons, although now Mrs. Zhao is full of children and grandchildren, the two still have a common language when they speak.

Mrs. Lin often comes and goes, and it is not without benefits, some of her small problems have been alleviated by Mr. Su's treatment. Mrs. Lin really likes Zhao Changqing, especially Mrs. Zhao is still a melon seller, and she has nothing else to do when talking to people, just praising her children, mainly on Zhao Changqing. How filial piety, how skillful, this is all physical evidence, Mrs. Lin also praised, "The eldest girl didn't say that she was old, and she was not as beautiful as her." "Even the cooking skills are also proficient, Mrs. Lin often comes, occasionally Zhao Changqing makes snacks, and often sends Mrs. Lin two boxes to take home to eat. Moreover, he is also literate and educated.

Mrs. Lin has never been ashamed of being poor, but now she really regrets that her family's conditions are limited, and her son's future is uncertain, how to be worthy of other people's daughters.

Ling Teng was not wrong at all, Mrs. Lin had a serious illness last year, and no matter how much she was conditioned, Lin Hao's study could not be delayed, Mrs. Lin had indeed moved her son's heart to see her daughter-in-law.

Although Zhao Changqing is good, Mrs. Lin also likes it, but with the Zhao family's family background and Zhao Changqing's age, Mrs. Lin can't open this mouth at all. However, Ling Teng mentioned his sister half-tentatively, and Mrs. Lin was quite tempted.

It's not for nothing that Mrs. Lin is tempted, Ling Teng's own character, Mrs. Lin has really seen it, not to mention the Zhao family, Ling is Ling Teng's aunt, and Zhao Changqing is still Ling Teng's cousin. Thinking about it this way, Ling Teng's own sister, Mrs. Lin pondered, maybe not as good as Zhao Changqing, but if her adopted daughter and aunt could be as kind and polite as Ling's, it would be good.

Just looking at the harmony of the Zhao family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Mrs. Lin herself is also looking forward to giving her son a good daughter-in-law. In this way, the young couple has a lot of discussion, and someone takes care of her son's study, so she is relieved. When his son earns a future, he can't treat his daughter-in-law badly.

Mrs. Lin had the intention that after the summer harvest, the family would be a little more comfortable, so she asked her son to buy four kinds of fruits, and took her son to Ling's house to thank Ling Teng for helping to invite Mr. Su last year. This is just a reason, Mrs. Lin wants to see Third Sister Ling in person. In fact, the Ling family also knew in their hearts that this was not out of line, which mother-in-law could not take a look at her daughter-in-law in person.

The Ling family also made sufficient preparations, the family was dressed quite decently, Second Sister Ling made a white face again, Ling Teng really couldn't stand it, and said, "Sister, you can get a little rouge, your face is so white, but your neck is black." ”

Third Sister Ling said, "What do you know? Now the girls outside are dressed like this. ”

"Big sister, which one would dress like this? You quickly washed it off, and it was ugly to death. ”

Second Mrs. Ling smiled, "You don't know, your eldest sister has to dress up more ceremoniously when they go out to meet people when they are girls." He also said to his daughter, "Don't be stingy with the incense powder, and wipe it off your neck." ”

Ling Teng frowned, "Sister Qing never messes around like this, who doesn't praise her for being handsome." ”

Third Sister Ling glared at her younger brother, and was so angry that she threw her handkerchief, "Who is as good as your sister!" ”

On the important day, Ling Teng didn't want to quarrel, and said, "Cheng Cheng Cheng, you can dress up how you want." ”

The first time they met, Mrs. Lin was still satisfied, and said to her son after returning home, "Since I was a child, I also invited a female gentleman to read and write, and the needlework women are all popular. ”

Lin Hao was embarrassed, poured a cup of licorice bellflower water and handed it to his mother, saying, "Mother looks good." ”

Mrs. Lin took a sip of water and smiled, "It's not a hurry, you concentrate on studying, you have to wait until you get into the show." ”

At such an age, Lin Hao had already pondered about his family affairs in his heart, and said, "It doesn't matter how you live or what your family is, and your son is not a lustful person, besides, our family is not rich, as long as people are filial." ”

Mrs. Lin smiled, "Don't worry, you and Brother Ling are classmates, I think he is an excellent child, if it is not for a good tutor, how can he teach such a sensible child." "I was already happy with this family affair.

Lin Hao thought about this, and the corners of his lips curled slightly. His mother's health is not as good as before, and he only hopes to marry a virtuous and gentle wife, who can be filial to his mother on his behalf, take care of family affairs, and live a life as husband and wife. After a few years, he will definitely be able to earn a future for his mother and wife.
