Situ Juan straightened out her handkerchief and continued: "The slave next to her accidentally provoked the hornets in the garden, causing her to be stung too, and she still can't go out of the house to blow the wind." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info I'm really tired of my aunt, but I'm afraid it's not convenient for her to come out to see you in the past two days. ”

Hey? What's going on? The expected pit was gone, Situ Juan hid Yuan Yushan, who had been fine for a long time, wasn't it to sue herself in front of this Mrs. Lu?

However, Yuan Xiyue was not happy for a few seconds, and an ominous premonition suddenly rose, just now he really thought about this matter simply, even if they exposed the matter of the hornet's nest and left a stubborn impression on Old Lady Lu, it was actually of little use.

"If you can't blow the wind, let your child have a good rest. I can stay in Linzhou for a few more days this time. I'm old now, and I'm not used to living in the capital, so it's better to go back to Linzhou to retire. Old Lady Lu said with a worried face.

"Auntie, you are the most blessed, my two sisters have prepared houses for you in the capital and Linzhou, the two brothers are so competitive, your old blessing is still to come. You can come back to live more, our sisters can't ask for it, and it's a lot of your blessings. ”

Situ Juan said with a happy face, although there must be a compliment in this sentence, but those who are familiar with the inside story know that she really wants to touch her aunt's blessings, in addition to being able to use the benefits of her family on the surface, Situ Juan has been working hard to ask for a child all these years, and it is even better if the weak can get some benefits from the fortune of her children and grandchildren.

"You have a clever mouth like a starling, and you are used to making my old man happy." Old Lady Lu was amused by her words. It can be seen that her life should be very prosperous and comfortable now.

A few people said some homely words again, and Yuan Xiyue listened to it next to him, and he couldn't say a word, but he didn't show a trace of dissatisfaction on his face. Listening to them talk about their happiness, they also laughed or echoed twice, which made the atmosphere in the whole room quite good.

However, at this time, Yuan Xiyue's heart was always shrouded in uneasiness, although the pair of living treasures of Situ Chan's family, Chen Jun and Chen Qin, did not appear today, she should be relaxed. But at this time, she was still thinking about what they wanted to do, and at the same time she had to react to what they were talking about, which was really testing.

From the content of their conversation, Yuan Xiyue heard that this time Mrs. Lu was indeed a little bored because she was staying in the capital, so she wanted to come back to see these two nieces who were not blood relatives but were more like blood relatives. And because her sister-in-law has died, she is extra affectionate to the two.

chatted until lunch, the Situ Juan sisters still looked inconspicuous, and continued to talk and laugh, without any intention of stopping.

Finally, Yuan Xiyue's eyes flashed, and then he whispered a confession, saying that he wanted to be respectful, so that he could go out to catch his breath. But as she expected, Situ Juan told her to go and come back quickly, saying that there were still important things waiting for her to come back.

Yuan Xiyue sneered in her heart, feeling that she had guessed correctly, so she hurriedly agreed respectfully, and hurried back after going out.

What she didn't know was that when she went out, the people in the house would have the following conversation.

"Juan'er, it's really hard for you to bring this child all these years, looking at her sensible and decent appearance now, it can be regarded as bittersweet." Old Madam Lu's eyes were full of relief at this time. Because she is also a person who has worked hard for many years to get through, she will identify more with the illusion of "bitterness and sweetness" created by Situ Juan than ordinary people.

"Who says it's not, they all say that this stepmother is difficult, not to mention that the child has been like that all these years, and if he doesn't take care of it well, he will be talked about. But fortunately, God opened his eyes, and now the child has regained his agility. After a few years, I will ask your aunt to give her a good family affair, which can be regarded as her blessing. ”

If Situ Juan's mouth is clear and clever, then Situ Chan is better than her, on the surface she is talking about her sister, but in fact, she turns around and praises the old lady's high morality.

"Look what kind of nonsense you are talking about, with your kind mother and aunt, where do you still use me to worry about Xiyue's family affairs." The old lady said that she was blaming her, but the smile on her face could not be hidden.

As he was talking, Yuan Xiyue rushed back. As soon as she came back, she sat and listened to Mrs. Lu persuade her to be filial to her parents. Yuan Xiyue heard from her tone that she really felt that Situ Juan was a good mother, who had taken care of herself for so many years, and now seeing that she was recovering so well, Mrs. Lu was very happy for their mother and daughter.

And the way Mrs. Lu talked to her made Yuan Xiyue feel disgusted, because she didn't like to force the younger generations to accept her own point of view like many elders in the land of China, but spoke reasonably and tried to think from the other party's point of view.

Yuan Xiyue finally understood a little why the children educated by this old lady were all excellent. But the more this is the case, the more she doesn't understand why she can maintain a long-term relationship with Situ Juan's family.

Mrs. Lu also has an advantage that Yuan Xiyue thinks is very desirable, that is, she is not like a few middle-aged and elderly women in ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, as soon as she speaks, she will be endless. In this comparison, judging from the length of Situ Juan's admonition to her every time, she is simply dozens of years older than Mrs. Lu.

Then, Yuan Xiyue naturally thanked the old lady for her teachings in a very well-behaved and sensible tone, and the old woman Lu looked at her more and more lovingly.

When Yuan Xiyue stood still, Old Woman Lu suddenly showed a look of annoyance, and then began to smile bitterly again.

"I just said that I didn't remember anything important today, it turned out that I didn't give her the gift I prepared for this child."

Mrs. Lu didn't say it was a meeting gift, because she had met Yuan Xiyue a few times before, but every time Situ Juan said that because she was afraid that the old man would be saddened to see the child's condition, she just let her look at it from a distance, and this time it was a formal visit.

The maid on the side took the two gift boxes prepared for Yuan Xiyue, opened them and presented them to her, it turned out to be a very exquisite double-sided embroidered screen, the squirrels on the screen were embroidered smartly and cutely, and the grape leaves looked delicate. The other box contains a set of low-key luxury versions of the four treasures of the study, but the overall style is very beautiful, which is suitable for little girls.

"This embroidered screen is to encourage you to learn to knit well, as for the four treasures of the study, I encourage you to also take time to study, and have the ambition not to lose to men." Old Lady Lu said to Yuan Xiyue with a solemn expression.

Yuan Xiyue has already been lifted out of poverty now, but I still like these two carefully selected gifts, and this is the first carefully selected gift I have received. What's more, she also likes Mrs. Lu's words, according to her understanding in the past few days, at this time, the atmosphere of this dynasty called Daliang is relatively open, and women are encouraged to be talented and learned.

Yuan Xiyue solemnly thanked the old woman Lu.

It stands to reason that at this time, Situ Juan and Situ Chan should be able to see sarcasm and resentment in their eyes, and in their consistent cognition, they feel that Yuan Xiyue is not worthy of having any good things.

But at this time, there was a faint look of anticipation in their eyes.

The next second, a maid ran into the door, shouting as she ran: "Madam, it's not good!" The old lady is dying! ”

A look of surprise suddenly appeared on the old woman's face, and the expectant expressions of the Situ Juan sisters finally fully bloomed, and Yuan Xiyue actually felt that a stone in her heart had finally fallen to the ground.

"Hehe, it's finally here."
