The maid reported in, saying that the girl had arrived on Wednesday, and Mrs. Zhou called "Come in" again and again.
Zhou Linlang walked in slowly, approached with his head half-down, and greeted Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou first.
Mrs. Zhou smiled and called her up, and introduced her to the guests on the side: "This is Mrs. Sun, this is Mrs. Chengsan, and this is Mrs. Lu." ”
Zhou Linlang also stepped forward to salute.
Mrs. Sun was a woman with a serious face, who looked to be about sixty years old, with a pair of somewhat drooping eyes with sharp scrutiny, and she never moved away from Zhou Linlang as soon as she entered the door.
Zhou Linlang was not afraid, but she was uncomfortable.
Such a person is naturally prejudiced against women, no matter whether she is good or bad, I am afraid that in Mrs. Sun's heart, she has already charged herself with many crimes in advance.
Mrs. Cheng San is a middle-aged woman with a kind face, described as thin, slightly pale, and even smiling is vain, and at first glance she is a person with deficiency.
Mrs. Lu Er is a chubby woman, and her eyes are smiling when she doesn't speak, but Zhou Linlang sees shrewdness and calculation in it, but she doesn't see pure goodness.
Mrs. Sun waited for Zhou Linlang to finish the ceremony, and then asked, "You are Zhou Linlang?" ”
Although she is an elder, her tone is so blunt, it doesn't look like an inquiry between the good friends of the family, but like a prisoner is being judged.
Zhou Linlang said briefly: "Yes." ”
"How old are you this year?"
"Fourteen."
"What do you usually do?"
Zhou Linlang paused for a moment and said, "Read the Buddhist scriptures." ”
Mrs. Sun's face changed, and she looked at Mrs. Zhou unhappily.
Mrs. Zhou couldn't wait to give Zhou Linlang an ear bracket, she really didn't open any pot and what kind of Buddhist scriptures she said? It's not once or twice to be asked like this, and every time she answers it decently, it's nothing more than doing needlework and the like, why do you have to mention Buddhist scriptures today, is it because I wish others knew that she had been in Mingfeng Nunnery, right?
It's clearly deliberate.
If she dares to spoil today's look, she will talk about it when she goes back.
Mrs. Zhou smiled awkwardly and said busily: "This child is a filial person, I know that I usually love to recite scriptures and burn incense, but I think there are too few words on the scriptures, so I have nothing to do, so my sisters will help me copy a few volumes." ”
Mrs. Sun herself believes in Buddhism, although she will not let go of the mustard after hearing this, she can say it in the end, but she has no intention of asking Zhou Linlang again. This girl is too beautiful and too charming, and if she meets the conditions, she is satisfied, but she is always a little uncomfortable in her heart.
She had already carved a mark of "fox spirit" on Zhou Linlang's head, which could not be erased easily, and she was just thinking about what happened to her son at the moment.
Mrs. Lu Er and Mrs. Cheng San also asked Linlang a few words meaningfully, and Mrs. Zhou sent her: "You go and kowtow to Mrs. Gu, there is no reason to see it." ”
Mrs. Zhou said: "It's still my daughter-in-law to take her." ”
When she went out, Mrs. Zhou said earnestly: "Linlang, what did you talk about just now?" Your grandmother is willing to make a face for you and take you out to meet people, but if you are always so muddy and can't support the wall, not only will you fail your grandmother's wishes, but it will be difficult for you to gain a foothold in the capital. ”
Zhou Linlang said innocently: "Did Linlang say something wrong?" I told the truth just now, and my grandmother also admitted that I copied the Buddhist scriptures for her. ”
"You-" Mrs. Zhou sneered in her heart: You just have a hard mouth, who should be the arm? You must know that this is not a serious family affair at all, and you are not looking to marry you back to be a serious grandmother, but to be a concubine, and your reputation is good, as long as you have a good appearance.
But he said impatiently: "You, I don't blame you, I'm just afraid that you are outside, you have always been open-mouthed, what to say, but I don't know that this is a taboo, how to say some things, you follow your sisters to learn hard in the future." ”
Speaking of which, without the guidance of her mother, she is inferior to her own daughter.
Zhou Linlang said: "Why don't you teach me from my aunt?" ”
Teach her?
Mrs. Zhou said in her heart: I am full, and I will not teach you. What's in it for me to be taught well?
At the moment, he only smiled and said: "If you are willing to learn, the eldest aunt will naturally not hide her secrets, but now that you are learning in front of the old lady, I still don't want to get an axe." ”
Zhou Linlang sighed thoughtfully.
Mrs. Zhou said: "Well, when I see Mrs. Gu, don't be so reckless, what people ask, you can answer what you know, and smile if you don't know, it's better to hide it than show off, otherwise you have to laugh and be generous." ”
This time, Zhou Linlang said with a straight face: "Yes." ”
Mrs. Gu is much better than Mrs. Sun, I heard that it was a Wednesday girl, seeing that she was born picturesque, delicate and charming, she liked it very much, took her hand affectionately, and said to Mrs. Zhou: "I really envy your mother-in-law, look at these granddaughters, all of them are like shallots, which make people's eyes hot." ”
asked Zhou Linlang again: "Why are you late?" I heard that you are not feeling well? Now, okay? ”
Regardless of whether she is sincere or false, at least she is willing to ask, which can be regarded as the attitude of the elders.
Zhou Linlang said with a smile: "It's just a stomachache, it's already better at this time, Mrs. Lao is worried." ”
Old Mrs. Gu glanced at Zhou Linlang and said: "You are also a pitiful person, the little girl's family, it is the time to grow her body, just put it on, especially pay attention to this food, those who are cold and cold, touch less and touch less, and you must not ignore your body because you are greedy for appetite." ”
Zhou Linlang blushed, bowed his head and said, "Yes, Linlang knows everything." ”
Old Mrs. Gu looked at it coldly, this Wednesday girl is not as charming as it is rumored outside, but she is really beautiful.
It's because it's beautiful that it fell into the eyes of Brother Zhao'er's child.
If she has such a beautiful granddaughter, it's too late to like it, how can she be willing to throw her to Zhuangzi to suffer? Not to mention the fact that she is complimented by outsiders, which has ruined her reputation.
Seeing that Zhou Linlang was well-behaved, Mrs. Gu felt a little sympathy for her.
Mrs. Gu looked at Zhou Linlang gently, and said with a smile: "Don't be restrained, you can eat whatever you want, if you want to play, I will ask someone to accompany you downstairs to see the excitement?" ”
Zhou Linlang shook his head: "No need, I'll accompany the old lady to talk about it?" It's cold enough outside, and I'm too lazy to get warm. ”
Seeing her confess directly, Mrs. Gu smiled and instructed people: "One by one, they are so blind, and they don't bring a hand stove to the Wednesday girl." ”
He also asked someone to pour tea for her, pushed all the delicious food on the table to her, and smiled like a kind grandmother: "I am old, my teeth are not good, I can't chew what I loved to eat in the early years, and my stomach is weak, so I don't dare to eat more, but I like to watch you young children do what they want." ”
Zhou Linlang smiled at her, and was not polite, she drank a cup of hot tea first, and then sat down to knock melon seeds.
Old Mrs. Gu watched her eat while talking to Mrs. Zhou.
