Time came in the blink of an eye, on the eve of the ancestor's birthday, and the eldest aunt sent the grandmother to let them all pass. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"I said we would eat a bowl of shou noodles together tomorrow morning." The grandmother who came to invite her was in her fifties, dressed in a Hangzhou silk armor with an autumn-colored eight-treasure pattern, with a red gold hairpin with a little oil on her head, and the corners of her eyes were wrinkled when she smiled, but she looked extremely kind.
Zhou Wei hurriedly smiled and agreed, and after sending his grandmother away, he told Chen Chen: "This year is a whole birthday, and there are three sects and nine streams in Ming'er, and the ancestor seems to want to have a reunion dinner tonight." ā
Chen Chen nodded, in their previous life, they also went to the Qin Mansion first, and the relatives who were closer to them had a reunion dinner together.
"What about the second aunt?" She remembered that Luan was not with them.
"They're going tomorrow."
Zhou Wei glanced at her and instructed Mother Jiang on the side: "Take a good look at the birthday gift tomorrow, don't make mistakes." ā
The birthday gift will pass the eyes of everyone tomorrow.
Jiang's mother should be again and again.
Zhou Wei felt a little more relieved at this time, and asked Qingman to go to the academy to inform Chen Min, and let him go back to the Qin family directly with the Qin family's cousin after school.
Because it was the Mid-Autumn Festival shortly after the birthday of the old ancestor, Zhou Wei called the lady in charge to talk about some precautions.
Chen Chen was bored, so he told Zhou Wei and went back to the courtyard.
The little girl Qiao'er was waiting for her at the door, holding a pale pink post in her hand.
She didn't have to look to know who sent it.
I had already planned to be with Shen Jun, but it was extremely difficult to really do it.
She sighed, took the post and glanced at it.
Cardamom brought her a cup of flower tea and said with a smile: "Did Miss Shen Er provoke you?" How long have you been in a cold war with her. ā
Cold war?
Chen Chen was stunned.
In the eyes of others, is this a petty cold war?
"I ...... Was it good with Shen Meiru before? She was a little apprehensive.
Cardamom laughed, "What are you asking?" ā
Yun Ying happened to come over from the side, and when she heard this, she laughed and said, "Last time, you got an uncarved piece of mutton fat jade, Miss Ying and Miss Shen Er both love carved jade, you just gave it to Miss Shen Er, do you say that you have a good relationship with Miss Shen Er?" ā
Chen Chen was a little stunned.
Once Chen Pingzhi brought back a few pieces of mutton fat jade seeds and gave her and Chen Min one each. It just so happened that Shen Meiru came to play with her, so she was leaving.
She never took it seriously, and felt that it was a matter of course for a good thing to match someone who loved it.
Looking back now, I feel that the efforts of friends are not very proportional.
Uncle Zhongxiao's Mansion is declining, and she feels that since Shen Meiru is her friend, it is understandable for her to help her friend. Shen Mei is sometimes upright and arrogant, and she doesn't take it to heart if she is domineering and arrogant.
She shook her head with a wry smile.
No wonder my mother used to say that she was a "stupid big sister".
She looked at the exquisitely made post, but she seemed to see Shen Meiru's extremely pale and weak face that secretly visited her in the West Palace......
She took a deep breath and saw Cardamom packing her clothes and got up and went out the door, tossing the post aside.
Zhongxiao Bofu.
Shen Meiru was sulking alone.
Shen Junru was embroidering a fan on the embroidery pier not far away, she looked up at her sister, and asked casually, "Can the handkerchief be embroidered?" Mother needs to check. ā
The house is declining day by day, and the mother's dowry is used for normal expenses. But the dowry is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket for the huge Bofu, in order to have a fat powder money, the girls in the house have to do some embroidery work every day, and ask their mother to sell it.
"I sold three taels of silver last month, and you don't have a tael of silver." Shen Junru continued, and sure enough, as soon as Shen Meiru heard this, she raised her head and retorted: "I'm still young, so I don't need rouge!" ā
Shen Junru covered her mouth and smiled.
Shen Meiru walked over to her, sat down beside her sullenly and helped her divide the line.
"What's wrong?"
Shen Meiru shook her head, but she couldn't hold back for a long time, lowered her head and said, "Sister, Aunt Yu still ignored me." You say......" she paused, her voice so low that she could barely be heard, "is she going to break me up?" ā
"How so?" Shen Junru laughed when she heard this, "Did you quarrel with her?" ā
Shen Meiru shook her head.
Nodding again.
He shook his head again.
She lowered her head again, pulled the embroidery thread in her hand and wrapped it around her fingers, and continued: "Who is making friends with me in our house like this?" We all feel that we are becoming inflammatory...... There is only Yugu, no mustard ......"
"What's going on in our house?" Shen Junru stopped what she was doing, looked at her sister seriously, and said, "How can the dignified uncle be as unbearable as you say?" She snorted and picked up the needle and thread again, but she still looked at her sister and said unhappily: "Life is all made by people, I don't believe that I will have a bad life in the future." "Not only to live well, but to live better than everyone else!
She didn't say this to her sister, but said: "You children are little contradictions, why don't you just go to Chen's Mansion to take a look?" ā
Shen Meiru saw that she and her sister still didn't talk for more than half a sentence, and returned to the chaise longue in a daze.
The fabric on the couch was bright and bright, and she sighed, but it was just a strong outsider.
As the saying goes, there are still 3,000 nails in a broken ship......
Shen Junru's needlework slowed down, she glanced at her sister who buried her face in the couch, muttered for a long time, put down the needle and thread in her hand and walked over.
She patted her sister on the back and said softly, "Mei'er." ā
Shen Meiru didn't move.
"How about I accompany you to the Chen Mansion to take a look?" She continued.
Shen Meiru suddenly bounced up from the chaise longue, and shouted with surprise on her face: "Really? You can't lie to me! ā
"I'm your sister!" Shen Junru scratched her nose, and suddenly thought of something "ah".
"What's wrong, sister?"
Shen Junru said: "Tomorrow is the seventieth birthday of the ancestors of the Qin Mansion, and they should go to the Qin Mansion today." ā
Shen Meiru frowned puzzled, "It's not tomorrow's birthday, why did you go today?" ā
"The ancestor of the Qin Mansion has a whole birthday this time, and tomorrow the wives of any family will go to make up and make friends, and my mother will take us too."
Shen Meiru still didn't understand.
Shen Junru didn't have the patience to explain anymore, so she just said, "Let's go quickly, just talk about something." ā
"Won't we see you tomorrow?" Shen Meiru sat down again and shook her head, "She must be very busy now, and it will be the same if she sees her tomorrow." ā
"Isn't she busier tomorrow?" Shen Junru said with a smile.
"Then it's after the birthday." Shen Meiru suddenly wanted to open it, and it was useless to be anxious.
Shen Junru was in a hurry, she pulled Shen Meiru up, "Let's go today, it's still early." ā
Shen Mei looked at her puzzled.
A sucker!
How could she have such a stupid sister!
Reconcile today, and tomorrow will meet more of the ladies of you!
