The courtyard was silent. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The autumn leaves and fallen chrysanthemums in the courtyard were swept by the autumn breeze and gathered around the bluestone steps near the main hall, and they were piled up in a pile of bright colors.

The traces of not being cleaned make the small courtyard look a little withered.

Mother Song instructed Momiji to boil water.

The three of them simply freshened up again and changed into clean and refreshing clothes.

Mother Song took a cotton handkerchief to Liu Ya, who was basking in the autumn sun under the eaves, shaking her hair.

Momiji poked his head out of the kitchen next to him and asked loudly, "Miss, let's eat pork and vegetable rice at noon, it's delicious."

Mother Song smiled with satisfaction and instructed, "Cut the diced meat into small pieces, wash the plum vegetables well, wash the sand, and chop some pieces." ”

This red leaf doesn't have the consciousness of being a girl at all, it's not too noisy, it's not big or small, but fortunately, she is simple-minded and dedicated to her sister's good. She is also diligent, she is still a good cook, and the most important thing is that her picky sister loves to eat the food she cooks.

Mother Song's heart was churning, thinking about the good of the red leaves, and on the other hand, thinking about the trouble she had made, and thinking that the boiling white water was so hot that it was terrible.

Liu Ya likes the red leaves heartily and sincerely, looking at the red leaves who retracted her head and went to be busy, she considered and said, "Nurse, it wasn't the fault of the red leaves yesterday, it was I who tricked her into taking me to the back mountain to play." I haven't been out of the hospital for so long, and I really want to see the autumn leaves all over the mountain. ”

The deep voice was full of grievances and sadness.

Liu Ya's words were like a basin of cold water slowly poured into the boiling water in Song's mother's heart.

My sister is reluctant to take the red leaves, for fear that she will drive the red leaves away. Children like to play with children, didn't the emperor also have to read when he was a child?

Then stay. It's a big deal that she bothered to teach this child, and maybe she can help her sister in the future.

Mother Song remembered the gossip she heard when she went into the city yesterday.

"You know, right? The Liu family and the Chen family in Xuanfu City are feuding. The two families have been fighting each other for almost three generations, and this time the Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival, the two families are going to fight again. ”

"What ring? In the past few years, the two have taken turns to host the lantern festival, why did they play again? ”

"That is the rule set by the eldest prince of the Liu family and the eldest lady of the Chen family after they got married, and the two families took turns to preside over the Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival in Xuanfu City. But the eldest prince Liu has been dead for many years, and I heard that the old lady of the Chen family is not in good health, and now she wants the aunt and grandmother of the Chen family to return, but the Liu family refuses, and the two families have made a fuss, so this year's Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival has become a fight between the two families. ”

"If you want me to say, it's good to fight, as long as we have good-looking lights, and the festival is lively, what does it matter who wins and who loses?"

"It's really superficial, although the Liu family and the Chen family settled in Xuanfu, but the two businessmen are all over the south of the Yangtze River, and they are among the best in the world.

"It's still early to say this, let's look at the excitement of the lantern festival at noon, why worry about it."

The Liu family is my sister's own family, and the Chen family is my sister's foreign family, and now the entire Xuan Mansion is spreading that Mrs. Liu is going to return.

Madame is back, what should my sister do? My sister's surname is Liu, if she returns with her wife, can she still change her surname to Chen? Do you want the face of the Liu family?

But if my sister doesn't go back to the Chen family with my wife, how can my sister and an orphan daughter gain a foothold in the Liu family.

Mother Song's heart tugged again.

Liu Ya shook the corner of Song's mother's clothes and said softly, "Nurse, Sister Hongye." ”

Momiji had already passed through the gourd arch, stood beside Liu Ya and blessed her body, and said respectfully, "Miss, Madame, please come over." ”

Liu Ya nodded and said, "Please sister, wait a minute, let me go and change my clothes." ”

Liu Ya's humility in her previous life has become a habit, and now she doesn't consciously reveal it when she speaks. As soon as she spoke, she wanted to bite off her own tongue. This time, the words are too weak.

Fortunately, Mother Song came back to her senses quickly, and then added, "Miss hasn't used lunch yet, you go back and say to Mrs., Miss will go over immediately after eating." ”

Qiu Ju smiled and agreed, saluted and turned back to resume his life.

Mrs. is from everyone's background, and she values etiquette, Qiu Ju serves by Mrs. Side, and the etiquette has always been thoughtful. But today's estranged Miss Tong is too far from the past.

What is she trying to imply by taking advantage of this difference?

Is it to imply that there is something special there in Madame? Affair? Person?

Liu Ya and Song's mother were both nervous in their hearts, and they each had something on their minds.

Mother Song served Liu Ya to change into a light yellow gauze skirt, put on a long jacket embroidered with bright yellow plum in autumn, carefully matched her with a pressed skirt ring and silk tie, curled her hair, and pinned two small hairpins with silver ornaments with broken silver plum blossoms.

Dressed properly, Mother Song followed Liu Ya through the gourd arch and entered the courtyard of Madame.

Qiu Ju stood under the eaves and waited, and when she saw Liu Ya and Mother Song coming, she hurriedly bowed to the house through the door curtain, "Madam, Miss has arrived." ”

When Liu Ya stepped on the steps of the main house, she happened to hear someone in the house talking, "Let Miss come in." ”

The voice was low and dull, as if someone was covering their nose and talking, dull and lifeless.

Liu Ya has never forgotten this voice in her past and present lives, this is her mother's voice, her mother's voice is as lifeless as dead wood.

The sound was very unpleasant, the sound was smooth and unturned, and it was as annoying to hear it as the muffled chirping of cicadas in summer.

Qiu Ju opened the blue and white curtains.

Liu Ya crossed the threshold with her hands on the door frame.

A small main hall with two chairs in the center, and a high table is placed in the middle of the chairs.

At this time, there were two people on the two back chairs.

One was a woman in her thirties, dressed in a layman's light gray robe, and wearing black cloth shoes on her feet, which only monks wear.

Liu Ya took a few steps forward and stood in front of the woman, bowed and said, "Daughter, please be safe to mother." ”

The woman waved her hand and said, "Get up." I've seen your aunt. ”

Liu Ya turned around slightly and took two steps, stood still and saluted, "Uncle is fine." ”
