Chapter 6 Hinting at human favors

Her mother asked Yan Xu to stay in the house to relieve her boredom, and Yan Wan felt very unwise about this. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Qin Niang went back to get the copy of the copybook, Yan Xu looked like a child and an old man, let the girl spread the paper on the table, and held the pen in her little hand, waiting for the ground ink to be written.

Yan Wan threw aside the poetry collection that he took from the incense, opened the window and lay down to watch the sparrows in the yard foraging, recalling the scene of catching birds in Zunyi Mansion in the past, and suddenly turned around happily and asked people to bring their slingshots.

The people who served around her were accustomed to understanding the temperament of the eldest lady, and they were busy understanding what the master was going to do.

The older incense opened her mouth to persuade her: "Girl, the master has explained, and I won't be interested in playing that after returning to Yanjing." If you want to catch sparrows, the slave maid will go and fetch the grain and sift the cage, shall you? ”

"Not good." Yan Wan refused, and said disapprerovingly: "What's the strength of that, it's not interesting." ”

She has had ideas since she was a child, and she has always done whatever she wants, where does she remember her father's advice? With a straight face, she was about to urge, when quicksand had retrieved her slingshot from the box in the inner room.

This slingshot was originally asked for by the second uncle.

The best bamboo bow rod is lined with horns and tendons, and the bow body is polished to a warm color, and the pattern of carved embroidered clouds adds a bit of elegance.

Yan Wan took it in his hand, sat up straight at the window, held the bow in one hand, opened the string with the other, and tried his strength with bated breath.

Quicksand held the open box and stood beside it, most of the fine pearls on the box, each one the size of a thumb nail, round and shiny, at a glance you know that it is not ordinary.

Yan Xu glanced at her in disdain, shook his head disappretently, and muttered, "Sister is going to destroy the heavens again." ”

Yan Wan was about to take the beads, and when he heard this, he pretended to be vicious, and said with the momentum of the eldest sister: "I haven't recognized a few words at a young age, and I will be a stubborn and boring nerd in the future."

I don't learn my sister's good at all, what is a violent thing, what am I ruining a good thing?

The beads are placed in the box to press the bottom of the box, and I use them to make marbles to play, which is called making the best use of things. Besides, it's not like you won't pick it up if you hit it, and children don't know how to talk nonsense. ”

My sister is always righteous, Yan Xu is poor in words, and she has suffered too much from her mouth, and she no longer argues, only complaining like a mosquito, "There is always crooked reasoning, and I don't know why there is so much left in the original box full of beads." ”

Yan Guan's ears were sharp, and he could hear it, but he didn't answer.

However, his eyes shifted from the pearl in the box to the person holding the box.

The quicksand is lovely, with apricot eyes and peach cheeks, wearing a green floral jacket, immature like a new shoot on a March branch. She was looking at her master with a smile at the moment, and her hands holding the pearl box sent forward, "Girl, look, there is one perched on the porch outside." ”

Yan Wan turned around, and really saw an olive-brown Huo Que standing on the red beam under the eaves, and the two white banded hairs at its shoulder feathers were bright, which looked particularly energetic.

She immediately became interested, took a bead in her hand, and shot it when she aimed it outside.

The sound of "pop" hit the crosswood, startling the birds, and the bird flapped its wings, flew up and circled, and perched on the side.

Marbles roll down the steps.

Yan Wan took the beads again, and instructed: "Drop the incense, let the fan outside take a good look, don't miss my pearls again." ”

Seeing that this posture could not be stopped, Falling Xiang glanced at the quicksand quite annoyingly, and reluctantly retreated outside the house, and picked up the beads that had been beaten out with a painting fan.

Yan Wan had a lot of fun, Yan Xu's ears were full of his sister's crisp laughter, sometimes happy and sometimes shocked, he couldn't calm down and practice calligraphy at all, it was simply a bitter word.

In the end, I simply watched her play a sparrow, and I felt quite funny when I looked at it, and I didn't know when I climbed to the end of the kang, and I gathered in front of the window and occasionally commanded.

There was a lot of joy in the east room, and there was a little silence in the upper room.

The fourth wife, Meng Shi, explained her intention and wanted to invite a few female gentlemen and etiquette grandmothers to Yan Guan.

Ji, who has always protected his shortcomings, felt a little unhappy after hearing this, does this mean that his daughter has embarrassed the Yan family?

Thinking about her feelings, she didn't turn her face directly, but only politely refused: "My master and I just returned to Yanjing, how can I worry about the four brothers and sisters?"

In the past, when I was in Zunyi Mansion, the homework of Guanguan was learned together with several girls from my second brother's family, and I invited Liu Zhao, the third son of the former bachelor Liujiang Liu's family.

Brother and sister, you may not know this Mr. Liu, he is a Jinshi in Baoqing for thirteen years, and he also served in the Hanlin Academy, but after three years of his mother's filial piety, he did not enter the court again. ”

The fourth lady is such a smart person, she heard the deep meaning of the other party's words, but she didn't ask deeply, but only answered from the kind flow: "The uncle invited it, it must be a person with excellent learning." It's just that Mr. Liu is afraid that he didn't go to Beijing with his second sister-in-law, right?

Don't think about it too much, but the old lady is still literate, and the old lady thinks that Sister Guan is such a jade carving person, and she thinks that she must be smart and intelligent when she does it.

originally wanted her to study with several girls in the family, but she was afraid that the original master would delay Sister Guan, so she let two of them be invited. ”

Ji's got pregnant twice after passing the door, and only when he was in the sixth year did he have Yan Guan, who was really holding it in the palm of his hand for fear of falling and holding it in his mouth for fear of melting, and he grew up with care all the way. What she doesn't like the most is that someone points fingers at her pearl in her palm, especially when she hears the words of Shi Ren Shangwen, she doesn't feel good in her heart.

She likes her daughter to grow up spontaneously, and she is so free and happy that she is unrestrained, why should she be wronged because of the eyes of those unimportant people?

It's also that she has had a smooth ride in her life, and she hasn't experienced any ups and downs, so she insists on what she thinks.

"I appreciate the kindness of the old lady and my younger siblings. However, in terms of knowledge, when I wrote back before, my sister-in-law had already said that she would help me keep an eye on it, so I still don't need it. ”

"In this case, then I will be lazy, and wait for Sister Guan'er's master to enter the house another day, and then I will go to Uncle Xie's wife." The fourth wife did not insist any longer.

Ji muttered in her heart, her sister-in-law gave her niece Zhang Luo, why should she be thanked by the people in front of her?

It's just to highlight her identity as the wife of the house, but she doesn't break it.

The fourth lady bowed her head and was silent for a moment, seeing that she didn't speak, she took a sip of tea and opened her lips again: "Having said that, the second master will be walking around in Beijing in the future, and I will accompany the second sister-in-law to walk around while the New Year is over."

Although several adults in Dali Temple are going to visit the house, Cui Shangshu also has to go to thank him. After all, the second master can get this errand, he also took a lot of effort, I often have contacts with Mrs. Cui, wait for a few days and fifteen, sister-in-law and I will go to Fayuan Temple with her to have an incense. ”

There is a deep meaning in these words, Ji Shi stared, leaned closer and asked: "Brother and sister, my lord's errand is ......?"

But before she finished speaking, the latter interrupted her with an expression of understanding: "They are all their own brothers, and the second sister-in-law must not see outside." ”

It's one thing to speculate in your heart, and it's another thing to hear it with your own ears.

Ji thought to himself that it was really the fourth master who had a relationship with Master Shangshu, but he regretted his attitude just now, and couldn't help but smile a little, and his tone became warmer: "This is really thanks to the fourth master, my brother and sister must convey their thanks on my behalf."

It's true that I have been picking up a lot of things in the yard these days, and I'm busy with Sister Guan's affairs a few days ago, so I didn't have time to go to your yard in person, don't be surprised by my brother and sister. ”

The fourth lady replied in a familiar tone: "Sister-in-law is polite." The eldest lord in the house went, and the third lord was useless, in the final analysis, only our lord and the second lord could support each other, and after that, the brothers would work together to get twice the result with half the effort. ”

"That's it." Ji Shi's heart was hot when he heard this, and he couldn't help but think of the fact that the eldest lady refused to give her the list yesterday, and felt quite awkward.

The fourth wife greeted Yan Guan's foot injury a few words, let him rest assured, and then went back.

When I passed the courtyard, I saw two girls bending down to pick up pearls on the ground.

When I heard the sound and looked, I saw a pair of sisters and brothers playing with sparrows in front of the long carved window with red edges.

Seeing her, the girl's black and white eyes were slightly worried, and she was so restrained that she hid the slingshot behind her and called "auntie".

The fourth lady bowed her head, turned around and left Langxian Garden, and slandered in her heart that the Ji family was really a loving mother and a defeated child, and she looked at what it had become.

As soon as I went out, I happened to bump into the second girl, Yan Rong, standing at the foot of the stone steps, her eyes focused and profound, and she was extremely serious.

Suddenly someone broke it, and the girl's eyes flashed quickly with panic and weakness.
