Chapter 5: Greetings
Early in the morning of the second day, when the genius was faintly bright, Linglong took Ziyue to Cijing Garden. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info winter morning, the sun seems to be afraid of the cold, always soft. Every time Linglong said a word, a large white haze couldn't wait to freeze immediately.
Fortunately, she has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and her body is strong. Otherwise, if you wear such a thin and biting cold wind for an hour, you will have a serious illness for ten days and half a month if you don't freeze to death.
"What did the young lady do to come so early." Ziyue wrapped the cotton clothes on her body, rubbed her hands, put it to her mouth and warmed it up a few times.
"We just came, and we don't know my grandmother's habits. It's always bad to be late. Linglong endured the cold, stomped on her frozen foot and said. In this yard, the old lady can live a good life, this stupid girl, don't you have to let yourself explain.
"The boy has been standing for an hour?" The old lady asked in shock.
"Yes, the slave maid just heard the little girl who sprinkled the sweep say that when she got up to sweep the yard, the third lady was there, counting by the hour, but it was not at least an hour." The big girl in front of the old lady sighed and said, "It's a cold day, I'm afraid I'm going to freeze." The clothes are very thin. ”
The old lady's heart moved, "Then don't you call someone in quickly." "After all, it's my granddaughter.
Hearing Liuli's call, Linglong hurriedly moved her wooden feet and followed her into the house.
"My body is cold and tight, my grandmother just got up, if the air conditioning is too cold, I will be sick here, I will warm up here first, disperse the cold on my body and then go in, Sister Liuli went in and told my grandmother not to worry." Linglong rubbed her hands, hugged the soup woman who was handed over by Liuli, sneezed and grinned.
Liuli looked at the clothes on Linglong's body, which were less than one-tenth of her thickness, sighed in her heart, and let the little girl get hot tea, watched Linglong drink it, and then went inside to pass the word.
When the old lady heard this, her heart warmed. No matter how true she is, at least, Lingyu and Lingrong have never let themselves be so moved.
"She came here early this morning, she must have not eaten breakfast, tell the kitchen, make more, and I will eat with Linglong today." The old lady commanded.
The little girl was ordered to go out to spread the word, and when she met Linglong outside, it was also a blessing in a low voice, she knew that this third lady had entered the old lady's heart.
When the body gradually eased up, Linglong held the glass soup woman and opened the curtain and entered the room.
"Say hello to Grandmother." Linglong bends his knees and bows a blessing.
"Good boy, get up." Looking at the thin cotton clothes on Linglong's body, the old lady trembled in her heart and leaned over to help her. Liuli said that she was wearing thin, but she didn't expect it to be so thin. Where is this cotton clothes, it is clearly a jacket worn in spring.
Liuli hurriedly stepped forward, "Third Miss, hurry up, our old lady is the most amiable person." He sat down on a chair beside him.
"Linglong made a small screen, and my grandmother saw if she liked it or not." Linglong said as she took a small square box from Ziyue's hand, took out a screen, walked up to the old lady, and handed it over.
The old lady took it, squinted her eyes and looked at it, a small and compact screen, embroidered with a picture of a kitten fluttering hydrangea, the fleshy kitten was vivid, really cute.
"Ah, isn't this cat the jade smoke raised by the old lady." Liuli's eyes were sharp, and he recognized it at once, and said happily, his eyes were shining.
The old lady looked carefully, sure enough, it was her own jade smoke, the colors and lines were exactly the same, and she loved it even more, but she immediately understood that this small screen was newly embroidered by Linglong last night, and when she looked up, she saw a black circle under Linglong's eyes, "Silly boy, I didn't rest last night." Lovingly took Linglong's hand.
Linglong grinned, "Grandmother likes it?" "Fourteen-year-olds, the sound is crisp and sweet.
The old lady smiled and said, "Grandmother likes it very much." ”
Linglong's happy eyes narrowed into a slit, "Grandmother likes it, Linglong can embroider a lot of small animals!" "It's innocent and cute, and there's no chance of meeting at all.
That's why it's flesh and blood! The old lady thought to herself, even if she didn't see each other for many years, she would be close when she did. "Come and sit on the kang, grandmother will watch you embroider for a while."
Linglong didn't push back, nodded happily, and climbed up on his legs, rubbed his feet, and took off his shoes.
At that moment, the old lady caught a glimpse of a big hole in the sole of Linglong's shoe.
It's a pity that she stood in such shoes for more than an hour!
Mu Fu's own granddaughter is dressed so shabby...... The old lady couldn't help but tremble, her eyes were a little hot, all these years, she had wronged this child.
complained about Aunt Yue, and didn't bring Linglong early, otherwise her granddaughter would not suffer such a crime.
"You came over early in the morning, but your aunt knows?" The old lady asked, holding Linglong.
Linglong nodded, and snuggled up to the old lady obediently, "My aunt woke me up, my aunt said, big families, we have to ask for peace regularly, we have been outside all these years, and we have never asked for peace, so we must be more diligent every day." ”
The old lady knew in her heart, too, otherwise she was a fourteen-year-old baby, and she grew up outside, how could she know these rules. The trace of disgust with Aunt Yue just now is gone.
According to the rules of the Mu Mansion, except for the big family banquet, the aunt is not qualified to ask for peace.
The grandfather and grandson were talking, and a mother-in-law came in with a food box, looking at Linglong snuggling in front of the old lady, her heart jumped, fortunately, she didn't follow the child to make things difficult in Zhuyuan yesterday. Wu recited the sentence Amitabha Buddha in his heart.
Liuli took the food box, and the woman retreated silently with a happy face.
"When you get up early in the morning, your aunt must not have given you food yet, so you can eat with your grandmother?" The old lady smiled as she pointed to the dishes on the table.
Linglong nodded, "If my aunt knew that grandmother liked Linglong, she would be happy." ”
Liuli listened while making vegetables, and sneered, "The third lady is telling the truth. ”
The old lady also smiled and pinched her delicate and thin little face, "Look at this thin face, it's all skin." "The pain in my eyes can't be dissolved.
Whether it is Lingyu or Lingrong, even Shichang has never been so close to her when he was a child, eating at the same table. They are more respectful than intimate with themselves.
Now that the granddaughter who has not seen each other for fourteen years has kissed herself, the old lady sighed in her heart, perhaps because she has not been restrained outside since she was a child, or perhaps, it is influenced by the happiness of ordinary people.
In fact, Linglong is not thin because she eats badly, in Qingquan'an, she is not treated harshly. She is thin, purely because of her martial arts practice.
Master Hui'an said, this is called Jingjian.
The old lady's breakfast is generally very light, but it is a variety of porridge with seasonal side dishes. Today, I added steamed eggs and stir-fried shrimp.
Linglong fragrantly ate all the steamed eggs and shrimp that belonged to him.
"Grandmother, it's delicious." After eating, he blinked his eyes and stuck out his tongue to lick his lips, and Linglong said.
"Live like a little monkey." The old lady pointed at the delicate head and said.
"Then the little monkey will pinch the shoulders of the old ancestor." Linglong said with a grin, half-kneeling behind the old lady, and holding it in a good way.
Teasing Sun, Cheng Huan's knees, the joy of family, that's what I'm talking about, the old lady squinted her eyes contentedly, enjoying the good times she had never enjoyed in so many years. For a while, she was even glad that Linglong was raised outside, if it was the same as Lingyu and Lingrong, she was raised in the house since she was a child, but she was afraid that she would not be so intimate with herself.
When people are old, what they care about most is warm and affectionate.
Ruri removed the meal and served two cups of hot tea. As soon as it was cleaned up, Xiao Shi came in with Lingyu.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw that Linglong was actually beating her grandmother's back, Lingyu was unhappy, but she had to learn from Xiao Shi on her face, and smiled decently, "My sister came early." ”
Linglong twisted her body and went down to the ground and saluted the Xiao family, "Mother An," and then gave Lingyu a slight blessing, "Big sister An." ”
Xiao Shizheng was still sullen because the old man stayed in Zhuyuan last night, and encountered such a scene early in the morning, so angry that his intestines hurt, and the eight-treasure porridge he ate early in the morning was baked by her internal fire at this time. Xiao Shi was secretly lucky, and said to Linglong as he could: "Good boy, sit there and talk." ”
Linglong nodded and sat down on the chair opposite Lingyu.
"Are you still used to living in Zhuyuan?" Xiao Shi took a sip of hot tea and asked with a smile. Luo's mother is an old person, and yesterday she was able to let Linglong give such a girl a suffocation, how could Xiao give up.
It's just that she doesn't know that this fourteen-year-old child is not a heart that can be manipulated by others.
"Mother arranged it very properly, and Mother Xue served them very well." Linglong smiled.
"Mother Xue?" The old lady was puzzled, there is no such person in this housekeeper's mother. I couldn't help but look at Shaw.
Xiao Shi was stunned in his heart, and was seen in a cold sweat by the old lady's gaze, this dead girl dared to sue! I can't wait to rush over and give her two mouths, so that she knows that she knows how powerful.
But she has been in charge of the house for more than ten years, what kind of scene has she never seen, suppressed the anger in her heart, and said with a smile: "Mother Xue is the mother in the kitchen, and the daughter-in-law is afraid that the people in the house will not serve well, Sister Yue and Linglong will suffer in eating, so they specially transferred her from the kitchen, there is a small kitchen in the bamboo garden, if Sister Yue and Linglong are not used to eating the food in Guanzhong, this Mother Xue can also make some delicious food for them in the small kitchen, so it is not only convenient, but also not eye-catching, and the villain in the province will gossip." Saying that, Xiao Shi added: "Mother, don't worry, this Mother Xue is the most refreshing and sharp person." ”
When the old lady heard this, she was relieved. The Xiao family has always been good to the concubine, and he will not be too harsh on Linglong. "Your mother is kind." Said to Linglong.
Linglong hurriedly got up and said to Xiao Shiyifu, "Let my mother bother." ”
"What does a family say about two families." Xiao Shi smiled lovingly, and turned to the old lady and said: "The daughter-in-law didn't bring any clothes when she saw Aunt Yue and Linglong coming, and now although it is about to start spring, it will still be cold for a while, so I should make some thick clothes for them." ”
"You can just decide on this kind of thing, you don't have to ask me." The old lady said: "It's a thing, the day after tomorrow Enyou Temple prays, you have to prepare well." ”
Mu Shichang was promoted, so he naturally has to prepare well this year.
"Got it, is my mother going this year?" Xiao Shi answered and asked again.
The old lady sighed, "After all, the weather is still cold, and I still don't go." As he spoke, he glanced at Lingyu and Linglong, "You are so tired, take the three of them with you." ”
"My daughter-in-law should." Xiao Shi smiled.
As he spoke, he agreed with the old lady on how much incense he would put on, how many carriages he would prepare, and what color of curtains to use, and he chattered until noon.
Linglong grew up in the nunnery since she was a child, and she can still sit still, but Lingyu has long been bored. The old lady dispersed, and her heart suddenly became comfortable.
