Chapter 26: Gift-giving
Luo's mother wanted to cry without tears, and her eyes turned upward. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Linglong and Ziyue left and right, holding Luo's mother all the way towards Cijing Garden.
Liuli took the pill in Linglong's hand and put it away with a smile. "The old lady was still thinking that the medicine had run out in the past few days and wanted to ask someone to match, so the third lady bought it back, which shows that the third lady and the old lady are connected."
"Linglong has always been considerate." The old lady squinted her eyes and smiled. Among the three granddaughters, in addition to Linglong, which one of them is attached to his body. Even if she wants to seek a refuge, for this filial piety, it is enough, "Why did you come back in Luo's mother's car and pick up your car?" ”
Linglong was shocked, she just came back, and the old lady actually knew.
It can be seen that although the old lady doesn't care about the things in the yard, she seems to know it in her heart.
Linglong smiled: "They didn't expect me to come back so early." On weekdays, I have to wait another half an hour to get back. ”
"You should have waited so that if you have anything along the way, you will have something to do." Linglong said, the old lady was a little displeased, everyone has the rules of the family, how can you leave the young lady outside alone and come back first.
"I waited on weekdays, but today I went in my mother's carriage, and Linglong was worried that it would be inconvenient for my mother to go out because of something, so I sent the coachman back, and asked the coachman to tell the family, and when Linglong wants to go back, I will send a small sedan chair on weekdays to pick it up." Linglong hurriedly explained.
The old lady's face softened, "What you did was very good, this is the demeanor of our young lady, who not only does not lose her own dignity, but also thinks for others." ”
Linglong smiled embarrassedly.
As he spoke, Xiao Shi came in.
"Mother......" The words of greeting the old lady did not fall, and when she saw the old lady sitting with her head down, she couldn't help but jump in her heart, and she screamed "ah", her face turned pale, and the hairs on her body exploded.
Linglong got up, "What's wrong with Mother?" He asked, pretending to be concerned.
Glancing at the shadow on the soles of Linglong's feet under the light, knowing that she was not a ghost, Xiao Shi breathed a sigh of relief and met the old lady's inquiring gaze, Xiao Shi was secretly lucky, and quickly explained: "I just thought about one important thing and told the old lady, I might as well stumble under my feet, it's okay." ”
"What's the matter?" The old lady asked.
"This morning, I asked Luo's mother to go to the eldest princess to receive the victims sent to various mansions, this whole day, and I haven't seen Luo's mother come back, my daughter-in-law came to ask my mother to show if she wants to find Luo's mother." Glancing at Linglong, Xiao said.
Endure a stomach full of surprise and horror. Why did she come back alive? Even if his own ribs and lilies don't work, then Li San took a thousand taels of silver from himself, is he a dry eater? You can't deal with such a big girl!
Holding back his anger, Xiao had to smile on his face.
"I should be a big deal," the old lady said with a smile: "Mother Luo is back, and she came back with Linglong, this child is honest and filial, and it is not easy to say that it is not easy to go to the house, so I asked Mother Luo to accompany me and buy some gifts for me and you." I just sent Mama Luo to deliver some egg rolls to Aunt Yue. ”
"Oh, it's good to come back, she's really confused, and she doesn't know how to go to me when she comes back, and she worries me in vain." Xiao Shi breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head and said to Linglong with a smile: "You are going to share the worries of the eldest princess, and you are not going out to hang out and buy any gifts." ”
Linglong pretended not to hear the wit in her words, and only smiled: "No matter what, it's hard to get out of the house." Today, the eldest princess dispersed early, and Luo's mother was here again, so the daughter took matters into her own hands and asked the eldest princess to ask her mother to accompany her to buy some things. ”
Listen clearly, I only went with the permission of the eldest princess, don't give me unruly hats.
Linglong glanced at Xiao's face as she spoke.
Xiao originally wanted to accuse Linglong, but she didn't expect her to bring out the eldest princess, but she couldn't say it with a belly of words, "It's rare that you have such filial piety." ”
The old lady saw that what she said was nondescript, but she didn't say anything because Linglong was a junior.
"Today, when I sat in my mother's carriage, I saw that my mother smoked lily incense, and my daughter knew that my mother loved lilies very much, so she bought a bouquet of lilies and gave them to her mother, and the daughter had a little heart." Linglong said, took a long mahogany box from Ziyue's hand, opened the lid, took out a bunch of lilies, and handed it to Xiao's hand.
When Xiao heard Linglong mention the lily incense smoked in her car, she was so shocked that her hair stood up, could it be that she had discovered something? Then I comforted myself, no, she knows what a child knows. But why give the lily to yourself? Moreover, Linglong, who should have died a long time ago, why could she come back in a good way? Xiao Shi trembled in his heart and looked at Linglong suspiciously.
"Mother doesn't like it?" Linglong asked with disappointment in her eyes.
Seeing that Xiao Shi only stared at Linglong and did not answer, the old lady thought that Xiao Shi disliked Linglong's gift and said unhappily: "The size is her little heart, you should be considerate of her as an elder, she only has a lot of silver a month." ”
The old lady's rather serious tone woke Xiao up, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, it was his own gaffe. Immediately laughed and choked up: "Mother misunderstood me, I was looking at Linglong being so sensible and filial at a young age, and I had mixed feelings for a while, and I didn't know what to say." As he spoke, he pulled out a handkerchief from his waist to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes.
It was obvious that he saw that he was still alive, and he gave her a lily, and he was frightened, but he said that he was moved, and Linglong slandered for a while, which was really a good acting act.
Seeing that Xiao's eyes were red, the old lady sighed in her heart, and couldn't bear to say anything, "You know that she is filial, and in the future, she will treat their sisters even more indistinguishably from each other." ”
Xiao Shi understood that this was the old lady beating herself, since Linglong came, this was the second beating, Xiao Shi couldn't help but deepen her resentment towards Linglong, it was because of her that the old lady became suspicious of herself, and only smiled gently: "My daughter-in-law knows." ”
Seeing that she answered, the old lady couldn't say anything, "Your mother feels sorry for you, or she wouldn't have stewed pork rib soup in the morning, so it can be seen that there is you in her heart." Afraid that Linglong would think too much in her heart, she comforted Linglong and said.
It's okay if it's not comforting, as soon as the words of comfort come out, Linglong is nothing, nodding on his face, and secretly taking a look at Suo Xiao with a smile in his heart.
Xiao Shi wanted to cover his thoughts, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea to calm his mind, where did he think that the old lady would mention the ribs in the morning, as soon as the old lady spoke, Xiao almost choked to death, afraid that the old lady would see the clues, only clenched the fist in his sleeve and held it back, with a wonderful face.
Fortunately, Liuli happened to add tea to the old lady and blocked the Xiao family.
Ziyue stood behind Linglong, and the muscles on her face twitched as she couldn't help laughing.
As he spoke, there was a commotion outside. Taking advantage of this reason, Xiao Shi was pardoned, and quickly got up and went out to ask.
"Madam, it's not good, go back quickly, if you don't go back, the eldest lady will die." Taohong was out of breath crying, and when she saw Xiao Shi coming out, regardless of her identity, she stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Shi's sleeve and said.
"What do you mean?" Seeing Taohong's behavior, Xiao Shi's heart tightened and asked.
"The young master drank too much wine and made a fuss in the eldest lady's room. The eldest lady couldn't hide, she was held down by the young master, the slaves couldn't pull away, she was in a hurry, when the slaves came out to find his wife, the eldest lady was still pressed by the young master. Taohong was anxious, and regardless of the occasion, she said it without a preface and a remark.
Xiao Shi listened to Taohong's words, and immediately understood what was going on, but it was too late, the four or five girls in the old lady's room heard it clearly, and secretly hated themselves for only coming out in a hurry, and they were confused for a while, and they didn't take Taohong out and ask again. Now I can't hide it, so I can't tell the old lady to know.
After sorting out his thoughts, he opened the curtain and went into the back room.
Seeing that Xiao's face was not good-looking, the old lady asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Yes......" Xiao Shi just opened his mouth, paused again, and looked at Linglong.
Linglong knew that she was trying to avoid herself and not let herself know, so she smiled in her heart, got up and said: "Mother and grandmother discuss things, Linglong is also boring to sit here, I want to sue my grandmother and mother, and go back to Jinyuan to have a lazy rest." ”
The old lady knew what she meant, and glanced at Linglong approvingly, "Go ahead, it's been a tired day, so take a good rest." ”
Out of Cijing Garden, Linglong helped Ziyue back to Jinyuan.
"How's it going?" As soon as she entered the house, Linglong asked for a photo.
Linglong took Luo's mother to wander around for a whole day, but in fact, she made time for Zhaoying to make pills for Aunt Yue in Zhongdetang.
Zhaoying nodded, "It's sent," and his expression was a little worried.
"What's wrong? But what happened? Seeing Zhaoying's expression, Linglong's heart twitched, and she asked worriedly.
Zhaoying took a breath and said, "Maybe the slave is too careful, but the slave is too fat to see Aunt Yue." ”
After the words fell, Ziyue sneered and laughed, "I'm still worried that my wife will be harsh on my aunt and don't give my aunt good food, but now that I'm fatter, doesn't it just mean that my aunt is not being harshly criticized, why are you worried!" ”
Linglong also breathed a sigh of relief, and showed a smile on her face, her mother has always been thin and weak, and now it is better to be fat.
"But the pregnant woman is too fat, and she will have Renchen lines, and when the time comes, although people can lose weight again, they can't get rid of stretch marks." Seeing Ziyue smiling, Zhaoying pouted and said, what he said was a very important thing.
"When Miss was born, I didn't see my aunt grow a Renchen pattern." Ziyue said with a grin, as if she had witnessed Linglong's birth.
Seeing that Ziyue didn't believe what she said, and didn't take stretch marks seriously, Zhaoying hurriedly refuted, "At that time, maybe my aunt was thin, so it wouldn't grow." If a pregnant woman is too fat, stretch marks will be ugly, and the whole body will be like snakeskin. ”
Like snakeskin, Linglong chuckled in her heart, and her scalp tingled for a while, "Is my aunt really fat?" ”
Ziyue saw that Miss Lee's expression was solemn, and she no longer smiled, but only looked at the shadow.
Zhaoying nodded, "It's a little fat," seeing that the young lady looked worried, and comforted: "But it doesn't necessarily have stretch marks." ”
"If it's really long, is there a way to get rid of it?" Linglong frowned and pondered for a moment before asking.
Zhaoying shook her head, "The slave doesn't know what method to use yet, the stretch marks are flesh lines that are stretched out because the skin is too fat, and they are embedded in the flesh." There was helplessness in his eyes.
A bad premonition hit Linglong's heart.
