Yuxuan's arrival, the happiest person is not Mrs. An but Wang An. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
She took the initiative to take over the job of placing Yuxuan from An Yu's hands, took Yuxuan to slip through Anfu, carefully inquired about Yuxuan's living conditions and preferences, and then led her to Ningyuan Pavilion, and Yujing upstairs and downstairs, and the sisters took care of each other.
When An Jiaying entered Ningyuan Pavilion, Yuxuan was being pulled upstairs and downstairs by Yujing to visit.
Yuxuan looked around, and there were three large transparent rooms, only the left side was separated by a sandalwood frame peony screen, and the shelf bed surrounded by a veil was faintly visible. There is only a large desk with pear blossom wood on the ground outside, and the study room on the table is complete, and the most attractive thing is the exquisite gold abacus above; Although the kang by the window was burning, Yuxuan still shivered coldly, and blamed: "Sister doesn't cut off the house to keep it warmer." ”
Yujing looked down on her face: "What do you know, people said: you can't be too warm in winter, it's easy to wear out your will." I'm just right, not too warm but not too cold, refreshing and refreshing. ”
Yuxuan teased: "I've seen your golden abacus a long time ago." It's really strange, my grandfather's family is a scholar, and our family is also a scholar, how did we give birth to my sister, a weird person who loves abacus. ”
Yujing was dissatisfied: "What do you know? Those young ladies who are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, which one is not anxious to face a large family after marriage? It's better to learn now. I will appreciate those piano, chess, calligraphy and paintings, and I am not a geisha who point to these eaters in the workshop. ”
Seeing that the more her sister talked, the more disdainful she became of those so-called talented women, Yuxuan smiled: "I know my sister." But I want to make my room warm. ”
An Jiaying smiled at the door: "Everyone is not afraid of the cold like Sister Jing." I don't really like to come and play in the winter. ”
Yuxuan saw that Cousin Ying was coming, so she ran over and grabbed her hand and asked, "Cousin is here, is grandmother okay?" I'm going to go over and talk to her in a moment. ”
An Jiaying said: "Grandmother said, don't go over. Cousin Xuan is tired of packing up today, and she has to go to school tomorrow, so she will rest early today, and it will not be too late to say hello to her grandmother tomorrow morning. ”
He called the maid who followed him and said to Yuxuan: "I sent some ornaments on behalf of my mother, and if there is anything missing in the house, just tell my mother and me." ”
Yuxuan smiled: "My aunt is tired, my mother has a big bag, and my house in Anranju is now empty, and I have all moved here." ”
An Jiaying smiled: "That's my aunt's love for you." ”
The three of them sat down hand in hand, and Yujing asked, "I heard my aunt say that my cousin doesn't need to go to school anymore, and only learns etiquette from my grandmother in the house, right?" ”
An Jiaying nodded: "Exactly." I don't need to go anymore when I learn everything. ”
Yuxuan was a little regretful: "I thought I could go to school with my cousin." ”
An Jiaying smiled: "It's only been a morning in total, and in the afternoon, aren't we learning manners with Mama in one place?" ”
Yuxuan became happy: "Cousin, are the two grandmothers sent by King An's Mansion fierce?" ”
Yujing scoffed: "Fool, in the future, my cousin will be their master, dare to be fierce?" ”
An Jiaying said: "Even if Mama is kind, we have to practice diligently." I heard what Cousin Jing said just now, and I was right. Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are just the icing on the cake for people like us. What you really have to be proficient in is a house of feeds and human relations. What we learned from Mr. Cui is also the genealogy and human relations of each family in Beijing, as well as the etiquette of major family occasions. It stands to reason that there are some things that I shouldn't say, but seeing that the two sisters are transparent people, let's get close to me before we say a few words. ”
Seeing that the two sisters listened attentively, she paused and continued: "Just look at the two aunts, they are good at learning, but they don't know anything about economics. The little aunt is only jealous in the backyard, losing the demeanor of everyone's daughter-in-law, all these years it is the old lady of Wu'an Hou who has held the feed, and there is a lot of friction between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Speaking of the eldest aunt, the two younger sisters also understood in their hearts: Mama Tian was in charge of the eldest aunt's dowry, so that she would not be sought by the Jiang family. Fortunately, Mama Tian is loyal, if she meets that dissenting minion, can the eldest aunt still live so comfortably? Let me ask again, in addition to the family's expenses, have other aunts seen half of the income of the eldest uncle over the years? ”
Who usually told Yuxuan this, but now after listening to An Jiaying's words, he was shocked into a cold sweat when he thought about it carefully.
Isn't it? On weekdays, in addition to the father's salary, other filial piety is sent to the mother, and the mother can keep it. What about those who can't be delivered?
I also remembered that in my previous life, after her father died of illness, Aunt Liu packed up and ran away and was caught by her brother, and she was full of precious packing and silver. She didn't have much place to make money, she didn't think much about it at the time, but now that she looks at it, it should be her father's piecemeal reward.
Yuxuan did not suspect that her father was spending money outside with private money, but she was amazed at her mother's lack of care about money, and said with some fear at the moment: "I am really fortunate that Mama Tian is loyal." In the past, it was better to have a simple home in Hangzhou; Now in Beijing, there are a few more brothers and sisters who are not the same as their mothers, and they are always worried that something will go wrong. ”
An Jiaying couldn't answer this, Yujing said: "Before they get married, what chaos can there be?" Do you still want to have a good family? ”
Yuxuan tugged at the corners of her mouth and forced a smile.
I'm afraid that Yuqian and Yufang will do something unseemly before marriage, and it is the mother who will be embarrassed in the end, but how can these worries be said to the two people in front of them.
A maid came in outside: "The second master came to send something to Miss Biao." ”
Yujing blinked her eyes and asked, "Now there are two Miss Cousins, which one will you send?" ”
The maid smiled: "It's for Miss Second Cousin." ”
An Jiaying blamed: "What a big cousin and a second cousin, it's strange and unfamiliar." Reunification should be shouted according to the ranking of their families. ”
Seeing that the maid was at a loss, Yuxuan said: "I am fourth in the family, and my sister is third." ”
The maid suddenly shouted with a smile: "Fourth Miss!" He also said that the thing was for Miss Four.
An Jiaying knew her second aunt's thoughts, and she also liked Yuxuan, so she quipped: "Why is it only for Sister Xuan, not Sister Jing and me?" It's too eccentric. ”
In a word, Yuxuan's face turned red. Yujing didn't understand what it meant, so she just joined in the fun: "Yes, why not ours?" Cousin Ying doesn't have to go to school, I have to follow it for another year, why don't you have mine? ”
An Jiaying pursed her lips and smiled, glanced at Yuxuan meaningfully, and pulled Yujing out: "Let's go and see, what good things are worthy of the second brother's attention, and Baba personally sent them." Yuxuan had no choice but to go out with a red face.
An Chuanwu stood in the courtyard, and saw Yuxuan quietly following behind An Jiaying and Yujing, only to feel that this little cousin was as shiny and well-behaved as the glow.
Yujing didn't understand just now, but now that she sees that her second cousin is only staring at her sister, how can she not understand the reason.
She lifted the box on the ground and flipped through it: "What should I do?" It's all the four treasures of the study, yo! And the copybook? ”
Yujing took out a notebook and flipped through it, and when she saw that there was no entrainment, she said: "Second cousin, I am also short of ink, why don't you send it to me?" ”
An Chuanwu was stunned by her question, and immediately said, "Yes, let Jin An send it to his cousin in a while." ”
Yujing was also polite: "Then hurry up, I'll wait to use it." Now that the things have been delivered, let's go back to the second cousin. ”
An Chuanwu's face was embarrassed, and when he saw that Yuxuan was embarrassed, he didn't want to stay, so he said, "If there is nothing wrong with my cousins, then I will go out first." If you have anything else to buy, just tell me, it's convenient for me to go to the street. He turned and walked away.
An Jiaying said to Yujing: "Look at you, drive the second brother away." Anyway, I sent something. ”
Yujing only smiled and looked at Yuxuan deeply.
Yuxuan had stabilized her mind at this time, and her face didn't show anything, but she slandered in her heart: Looking at my sister's attitude, I definitely don't want me to get too close to my second cousin.
