The night is not quiet, the curved screen is deep, and the curtains are swaying. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The lights and candles flickered, Yan Wan leaned comfortably on the bed, opened his mouth to eat, and enjoyed his mother's careful feeding.
After eating a full bowl, the little girl rubbed her belly under the brocade quilt and smacked her mouth and commented: "The lilies in this season are not fresh, and the sugar is not enough, and they are not as delicious as before." ”
Ji handed the bottom-clear Qinglian porcelain bowl to the maidservant next to him, and spoiled her with a doting smile: "Who is thinking about eating lily porridge on a whim, but after eating it, I began to dislike it, why didn't I listen to you when I first brought it in?" ”
Yan Wan smiled "hehe", leaned directly into his mother's arms, "I slept for half an afternoon, I didn't eat dinner, and you are reluctant to give me a bowl of porridge." ”
She dragged out her voice, and said aggrievedly: "My mother doesn't care about me now, when the fifth sister came, you asked people to bring her a lot of snacks and fruits every time, but you were so stingy with me." ”
She hummed Qingqing's little temper, Ji was used to it, but when she heard her daughter mention Yan Zhen, she remembered the appearance of the person in her arms fainting before, and sighed in shock: "You kid, what kind of illness is it that is, it's always good and bad, sooner or later I have to scare you out of illness." ”
Yan Wan rubbed into his mother's arms, thinking of Yan Zhen and hating it, how could he not get rid of them lately, he stuck to them Langxian Yuan, and pouted: "Mama is right, I just don't agree with her, mother, I will not be comfortable as soon as you see her illness." ”
"What's the point?"
As soon as the second master entered the inner courtyard, he came to the east room to see his daughter, and he was sitting at the table when he heard the words and stood up, paced to the bed with a solemn face, looked at his daughter's ruddy face, and said suspiciously: "Sister Guan, don't you deliberately pretend to be sick and avoid studying when you hear that the female gentleman is going to enter the house." ”
Yan Wan was wronged, looking at his father's serious face, he was really sad, grabbed his mother's arm and shouted: "Mother, how can you see that my father thinks of me like this?" I don't want to stay in the house every day, he actually said that I was pretending to be sick, I seem to be going to do such a rebellious thing as cheating my father and mother? ”
She is pampered, dancing and riding horses since elementary school, her body has always been healthy, and she usually does not even have minor illnesses and disasters, but she has always been inexplicably uncomfortable in the past two days.
Ji Shiyuan was not easy to answer, after all, his daughter had really done such a thing as pretending to be sick and hiding from her master before, but she didn't want to buckle the head of her daughter for any big rebellious charges, so she wanted to keep silent.
Suddenly, seeing her like this, she hurriedly took a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and coaxed softly: "Don't listen to your father's nonsense, he doesn't touch his home every day, where do you know your suffering?" As he spoke, he turned around and glanced at his husband angrily, and his tone was unpleasant: "Guanguan is already sick, and the master still says this, can he have a little father's love and generosity?" ”
The second old man's face was pale, he had to go out early and return late, every time he came to Dongji at night, Guan Guan was refreshed, and he couldn't see any sickness, of course, he thought he was pretending to be sick, after all, this child has been eccentric since he was a child, and he thinks a lot.
He just heard about the day and was a little puzzled, although his wife had mentioned it earlier, but she didn't take it to heart. This time this situation happened again, and the people below still said such things to Sister Zhen'er, and they were also worried that the two rooms would have a disagreement because of this, so they had just asked.
Now he looked at his wife and daughter complaining and complaining, and hurriedly explained: "I think that my husband thinks that we have been back in Beijing for a long time, why haven't I heard that Guanguan has this problem after meeting Sister Zhen's son?"
Don't be childish and inspired by Sister Zhen'er's illness to deliberately fool us, after all, this is all in the same mansion, and their sisters will not see each other in the future? ”
Ji Shi's mood eased a little after hearing this, and then sighed: "Yes, why is it like this recently?" I've never heard you talk about it before, Wanguan? ”
Yan Wan heard the meaning of his father's words to protect the fifth sister, and thought that he had just been suspected, and he was also angry and annoyed, so he blurted out: "Who knows what's going on, didn't the senior monk say that the fifth sister's soul is not possessed?" Maybe I've been invaded by some lonely ghost now, and I'm specially here! ”
The second old man saw that his daughter could even say this kind of nonsense, and his spirit was so full, he blushed with anger, pointed at the person who was shrunk in his wife's arms and didn't say anything for a long time, and finally stomped his foot and beat his chest, shook his head and said: "It's really unfortunate for the family, how can I teach you such a bastard." ”
But Yan Wan was not afraid, and seeing that his father's appearance of beating his head was quite interesting, he poked his head out and quickly continued: "Daddy, don't be angry, the young brother you taught is good, I was taught by my mother and second uncle, don't question yourself." ”
This sentence made the second old man widen his eyes, and he raised his hand when he stepped on the pedal.
Yan Wan wrapped his arms around his mother's waist and shrunk his body, and asked for help with a special cowardice: "Mother, save me, if my father is going to kill me, you won't have a daughter." ”
Ji really took her to a go, stood up and said to her husband: "Master, why do you want to do it with Guanguan?" That's it, you, the father, have never been a faceless admonition to her, so let's go back to the house, so that you don't have to be rushed by anything else, but you are scared out of illness. ”
The second old man just raised his hand and pretended, where did his flesh and blood go, listened to his wife's arrangement, as if he was used to it and seemed helpless to put down his hand, shouting something "loving mother, ruined" shook his head and really left.
Seeing this, Yan Wan laughed happily.
Ji Shi glared at her when he looked back, quite aggressively, "It's not big or small, your father doesn't hurt you yet, what's the benefit of making him angry." ”
Yan Wan was not afraid of the majesty of the person in front of him at all, and said disapprerovitically: "Who made him doubt me, even if my daughter wants to pretend to be sick, she has nothing to do with the fifth sister involved, and I have no enmity with her." ”
Those who hear it ponder, but they just don't understand.
Mama Ji couldn't help but say: "Madam, the old slave feels that the girl's previous words have some truth, the girl is young and her eyes are clean, maybe the fifth girl is really stained with something unclean." After all, her previous illness was too mysterious, and she was terminally ill a moment ago, but she was well in the blink of an eye. ”
Ji was suspicious, and he really had to believe it, after all, he invited many doctors and said that her Guanguan was in good health, and she could only prescribe some prescriptions to strengthen her body.
"So what can I do? We have no evidence, we can't ask the master to do it for Sister Zhen, right? The fourth wife has been nervous about her daughter recently, if I insist that it is Sister Zhen's chong, who can believe it in the house, I don't have to make people think that I can't get used to the fourth room. ”
Mama Ji thought about it, and there was no perfect way, "It's better for Mrs. to take the girl out for a walk, go into the Buddha to worship the Bodhisattva, maybe the girl will be cured in a few days after leaving the house." ”
None of them believe in that kind of person, but there have been too many mysterious things recently, and Ji really thought about it when he looked at his daughter.
She thought for a while and said, "In this way, I will send Guanguan to live in her uncle's mansion for a few days, it just so happens that her grandmother's death day is coming, and the old lady also has a reason to save those nonsense who love to chew the root of the tongue." ”
When Yan Wan heard that he was going to send himself to Ji's Mansion, he immediately drooped his face, "Mother, I don't want to go, it's so boring in my uncle's mansion." Several cousins of my aunt's family are married, and I used to have to be watched by my aunt all day long, so I didn't go. ”
She felt that her aunt was too serious.
Ji's decision has not changed, and insisted: "You kid, didn't you often go to live in your second uncle's mansion before?" You can't be a man who favors one over the other, the eldest uncle and aunt love you as much as the second uncle and second aunt, and you are not familiar with their cousin, and there is always a correspondence between brothers and sisters. ”
After speaking, regardless of the girl's resistance to coquettishness, he stuffed her into the quilt and covered the quilt and went back to the upper room.
