Chapter 33: Torture
When I returned home, I would inevitably be punished. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Zi Mo was also mentally prepared.
When Mrs. Tai saw that everyone came back but it was still early, she couldn't help but wonder: "Why did you come back so early?" β
Before going out, they were all happy, and it was easy to usher in the annual Lantern Festival, and the children at home were looking forward to it early. She can naturally see this. But now that they are back, the faces of the children are not too interested, but a little regretful.
Isn't this year's lantern festival as good as in previous years?
Cheng Ziyan quickly complained to Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Dame: "It's all the fifth sister!" As he spoke, he glared at Zi Mo, "She was separated from all of us, and the eldest brother sent someone to go out to find her, and then we could only sit in Juxiang Building and wait for her, and wait until she came back by herself, and everyone was not interested in shopping again." β
Zi Mo's flesh hurts.
I wouldn't have given her the mask if I had known.
It's a pity that the mask can't stop the second sister's mouth.
Mrs. Tai was surprised when she heard this: "But really? β
Zi Mo obediently stepped forward to admit his mistake.
"It's me who didn't take care of it." Cheng Zihang stepped forward one step ahead of her.
"How is it your fault? There are so many sisters in the family, and there are so many people on the street, how can you take care of them all by yourself? When the eldest lady saw Cheng Zihang put all the fault on herself, she was immediately unhappy, "Although you are a brother, don't be too protective of her." After speaking, he looked at Zi Mo again, "Do you know that the fifth girl is wrong?" β
Zi Mo nodded obediently: "Got it." β
Cheng Zihang glanced at her, and Zi Mo shook his head lightly at him.
Now Mrs. Tai hasn't spoken yet, even if there is a punishment, it won't be very heavy, after all, it's not good for Mrs. Tai to speak first. But if Cheng Zihang is bent on protecting himself, he will displease the eldest wife, and then the gains will outweigh the losses.
"Forget it, nothing happened to you, it's good that the five girls know it's wrong." Mrs. Tai acted as a peacemaker, "but take caution." β
Zi Mo pursed his lips and smiled, and nodded obediently: "Mm-hmm." β
The others couldn't stand it anymore when they saw this.
Cheng Zixue glanced at Zi Mo lightly, she was lowering her head as if admitting her mistake, but the corners of her mouth were curved into a small arc that rose slightly.
Since the fifth sister fainted at her grandmother's place once last time, her grandmother's dissatisfaction with her mother has gradually been revealed. In the past, my grandmother rarely managed the affairs of the family, and my mother handled all the big and small things in the family. But now...... Cheng Zixue gently stirred the silk handkerchief in her hand. Mother said that a small number of people in the kitchen had been replaced, but these people who could be replaced had not been replaced by her hands, but by Mama Xu.
What did the fifth sister look like in the past?
Cheng Zixue looked at Zimo again for a while.
She couldn't even remember what the fifth sister looked like in the past. Maybe it's because it's so quiet that people often ignore her presence.
But, at least not today.
Today's fifth sister is still quiet, but it is not as easy to ignore her as before.
The seventh sister is free by nature but likes to play with her, the eldest brother doesn't get along with the sisters in the family but will defend her many times, and the grandmother has been cultivating herself and worshiping the Buddha all the year round, but because of her, she has re-managed the chores at home......
One person can make so many people change at the same time because of her, which has to make her think deeply.
Zi Mo easily escaped in this way, and she didn't even have the grounding punishment she had expected.

The days are like a white horse, and as soon as the New Year passes, it will be March in the blink of an eye.
The temperature gradually rose, and the minds of everyone in the capital gradually became active with the weather, and those common activities were held one after another.
Today, a lady of the waiter holds a tea party, a princess of tomorrow invites to enjoy the flowers, and a lady of the county marquis invites all the way to the temple to worship the Buddha and ask for a hexagram.
The woman's correspondence is nothing more than these names, let the news out, write a few more posts, and send people to a few familiar homes.
The person who received the post happily accepted the invitation, stayed until that day, and brought the girlfriend at home to the appointment. The older ones sat together and chatted, and then looked at how the ladies of each family were doing, and if there was any satisfaction, they would smile and talk to the parents, and the meaning was clear, and it could be regarded as a preemptive glance for the sons and daughters of the family.
Zimo is often used for full use.
She is a concubine, and in the eyes of those high-ranking families, such a background will not be seen in the eyes. Therefore, she became a visitor, and watched those gorgeously dressed ladies gather together in the name of enjoying flowers, but her eyes swept over the girls from time to time, and she couldn't help but laugh and think: It turns out that this is the ancient blind date meeting. Moreover, it is still a blind date meeting without the participation of the male protagonist.
"Where are you?"
A girl suddenly sat down beside Zi Mo.
Zi Mo tilted her head, and saw a little girl in red staring at her.
The little girl was dressed in a big red dress, and she was draped with a shawl of the same color Shu brocade on her shoulders, and a circle of white fluff on the cloak lined her more and more pink.
"Cheng Zimo." Zimo smiled at her, "My name is Cheng Zimo, Cheng family." What about you, where are you? β
The little girl's round nose was a little red, probably rubbed by herself, and when she heard this, she twisted her nose, looked at her and said, "My name is Xingle, and I am from the criminal family." He pointed at Zi Mo and said, "I haven't seen you." β
"Well, I haven't seen you either." Zi Mo said as a matter of course.
This time, she followed the eldest lady to Gu Mansion as a guest.
March orchid scent.
The Orchid Garden in Gufu is a famous scenery in Beijing.
It is rumored that Mrs. Gu has loved Lan like her life since she was a child, and the orchid garden in Gu's mansion is now planted by Gu Xingyun, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, one by one. Today's waiter of the Ministry of Rites was just a little protΓ©gΓ© back then, just because Mrs. Gu loved flowers, so he searched everywhere and inquired, and found a total of 7749 kinds of orchid seedlings and planted them in the orchid garden.
At this point, it has become a good story.
"They always like to talk together, and I don't understand or be interested in what they say." Xing Le pouted, "I just moved to the capital not long ago, and my friends are all in my hometown. β
It turned out that I changed places, and I couldn't integrate into the new circle without acquaintances.
That's a bit like myself.
Zi Mo patted her hand: "You can make me a friend, well, a new friend." β
Xing Le blinked, then slowly smiled and the corners of his mouth curved into a heart shape, and said happily: "Okay, then you are my first friend here!" As he spoke, he lowered his head and looked for something on his body, and after looking for a long time, he took off a gold bracelet from his hand, "This is for you, and it is my first gift to you." β
Zi Mo was embarrassed when he saw her unload the table.
Why do the girls here like to take off their bracelets and give them away? Is it because they don't have gifts on their bodies and hands to prevent them from having no gifts?
"Forget about the gift, you can wear it yourself. I'm not friends with you to receive gifts. Zi Mo taught children with an adult mentality.
Seeing this, Xing Le felt that this friend had made the right one.
Brother always said that if she makes friends, she should keep her eyes open, and don't treat everyone as a friend. Ah Ge said that some people deliberately approached her because their family was very rich, and these people played with her just to get benefits and benefits from her. Therefore, such a person cannot be considered a friend at all.
But Zi Mo didn't, she was different from those people. She gave her bracelets she didn't want, she didn't befriend her for the sake of benefits.
Xingle felt very happy, happy from the bottom of his heart.
"I'm nine years old, how old are you?" Xing Le asked Zi Mo with a winkling eye.
"Then I'm older than you, I should be ......" Zi Mo quietly calculated in his heart, "It should be eleven...... Twelve...... Eleven years old. β
"Then I'll call you Sister Zimo." Xing Le said happily.
Zi Mo was almost dazzled by the little girl's bright eyes, and nodded when he heard the words: "Okay, whatever you want, you can call it whatever you like, as long as you don't give me a nickname." "It's just a title, anyway.
