Chapter 17: Auntie

Hewang couldn't help frowning, Shengfang had always been lenient, how could he ever be so stern. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info She entered the room, Xun Fang and Yuan Fang sat on the Taishi chair in the hall, and Zhu Fang walked around the room, her face anxious.

When they saw her come in, the three of them came up together.

Xuan Fang said: "Girl, you are back!" ”

"What's going on?"

"Miss doesn't know what's wrong, when she comes back, she will lock herself in the bedroom, don't say a word, we send tea in, she ignores it."

Hewang was surprised and said, "Didn't Miss go fishing with Miss Wang Liu today?" What happened? She looked at Xun Fang and Zhu Fang, who were waiting for them today.

Xun Fang said worriedly: "It was supposed to be good, but during the lunch break, Miss Wang Liu pulled Miss through the window and secretly ran out to play......

"So you let Miss go out alone?" Hewang's face suddenly sank.

"No, no, no!" Xun Fang shook her head again and again, with an eager expression, "It was Miss who gave us a look, so we didn't care, and Miss was protected by secret guards and was very safe, so we pretended not to know." ”

"Later, the people around Gu Gongzi came to the Floating Fragrance Inn, saying that Miss and their son went to Manxiang Building, and let us go there to pick up people." Chu Fang continued, "When we went, Miss, Miss Wang Liu, Gu Gongzi and Jin Xianghou were all ......."

"Jin Xianghou?" Hewang interrupted her with a frown, "You said that Jinxiang Hou is also there?" ”

"Yes, it seems that Gu Gongzi and Jinxianghou made an appointment to meet in Manxianglou, but they met Miss and Miss Wang Liu on the road, and they went together." There was a puzzled look on her face, "Miss was smiling when she said goodbye to them, who knew that when she got into the carriage, she sank her face and didn't say a word, until now ......"

That's what happened in Manxianglou, Hewang nodded with a sinking face: "I know, don't pestle here, just do what you have to do, I'll go in and see." ”

Crane Wang took the tea and walked lightly into the bedroom.

Li Wan was crooked on the soft couch in front of the window, staring sideways at the window in a daze.

She gently put the teacup on the low table next to the soft couch, and said softly, "Miss, take a sip of tea." Then he moved a brocade and sat down beside her.

"Miss, the master said that he would leave for the northwest early tomorrow morning. He reassures you that he will treat Rong Bo's injuries well, and the matter of the silver dart will be carefully investigated......"

"Hewang," Li Wan said suddenly, "Do you remember what my father and mother looked like?" ”

He Wang was stunned for a moment, and his face could not hide his shock: "Miss, you ......"

Li Guan closed his eyes and breathed a long sigh of relief: "Forget it, you didn't ask me." ”

She took off the bracelet from her wrist and threw it on the low table: "Put it away, Ge Yi seems to recognize it today." ”

Hewang picked up the bracelet and wanted to ask what happened, but seeing that Li Guan didn't want to say more, he had to swallow the words. She put the bracelet into the secret compartment, turned around and smiled at Li Guan: "Mrs. Gu has arrived in the afternoon, and Mrs. said to let you go over for dinner." The hour is almost up, I'll ask Xunfang and them to fetch water to serve you to freshen up. ”

Li Wan nodded.

As soon as I freshened up, Li Zhizhi came.

He tilted his head and looked at Li Guan: "Sister, aren't you happy?" I heard my mother say, you went fishing today, are you unhappy because you didn't catch a fish? ”

The child's heart is the most sensitive, Li Guan shook his head with a smile, and then changed the topic: "You don't accompany your aunt and cousin at your mother's place, what are you doing here with me?" ”

"Madame sees that the hour is not early, Miss hasn't gone over yet, and wants to send someone to take a look, so the second young master will follow." Before Li Zhizhi could speak, the little maid who came with him said with a smile.

When the master speaks, how can the slave interject.

He Wang's brows furrowed slightly, and he saw Li Wan glance at the girl lightly: "Are you from the second young master's house?" What is your name? ”

I don't know why, her tone was very gentle, but the maid couldn't help but be excited: "Miss Hui's words, the slave maid is called Lingyu, and she is a third-class maid in the main courtyard." ”

Li Wan didn't pay attention to her anymore, straightened Li Zhi's clothes, and said with a smile: "Sister went out to play today, brought you some gadgets, and let the maid send you to the house later." ”

Li Zhizhi's eyes lit up: "Thank you, sister!" ”

The two went to the main courtyard together.

Mrs. Li and they were drinking tea in the west room, and Li Guan led Li Zhizhi and walked in.

Master Li and Mrs. Li were there, Li Zhiwei also came back, a woman in an indigo plain brocade gown sat on the Taishi chair on the right, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy sat in her lower position, and a teenage girl sat on the brocade next to her.

Li Guan and Li Zhi stepped forward and saluted.

Master Li said, "I've seen your aunt." ”

"Yes." Li Guan turned sideways and squatted down slightly, "Guan'er has seen my aunt." ”

It was the first time she had seen this titular aunt, and she saw that her eyebrows were very similar to those of Master Li, and she looked kind, but her face was yellow, thinking that it was because of her long-term illness.

Mrs. Chen got up and helped Li Guan up with her own hands, looked up and down, and smiled at Master Li and Mrs. Li: "It looks a little like our family, it really fulfills the old saying, it's not that a family doesn't enter the door." "The voice is very soft and beautiful.

Mrs. Li and Master Li smiled and bowed their heads, and Li Guan covered his lips and smiled.

Mrs. Chen patted her hand lovingly, pointed at the young man, and said, "This is your cousin, his name is Haoran." Then he pointed to the little girl, "That's your cousin, and her name is Huiran." ”

Li Guan raised his eyes and saw that Chen Haoran was of medium height, wearing a cyan bamboo-patterned round-necked robe, with a high nose and eyebrows, and a polite manner. Chen Huiran is still young, wearing a silver and red jacket, looking innocent.

The two of them heard their mother introduce themselves and hurriedly stood up.

Everyone saw the ceremony, Li Wan sat on the chair where Li Zhiwei bowed, and Li Zhizhi sat on the brocade beside her.

Old Master Li was listening to Mrs. Chen's words, Li Wan and Li Zhizhi came in and interrupted her, and now he said to Mrs. Chen, "You go on." ”

Mrs. Chen continued: "Haoran is also fifteen years old this year, although he studied with his husband at home and won the show, but it is still very difficult to go further. Our family is counting on him to shine in the family now, so I came here mainly to find him a good gentleman. The hidden dragon and crouching tiger in the capital, second brother, you are an official in the court again, and the door is wider than mine, I want to think about it, I can only ask you for this matter. ”

"What please, don't please, I'm your second brother-in-law, who are you looking for me for this matter? Don't worry, I've already planned it for you. Mr. Song, the director of Hengde College, is the most suitable candidate for his extensive knowledge and high moral standing. After a few **** to personally take Haoran to visit, even if Mr. Song can't be accepted as a personal disciple, it is very good to be able to enter Hengde Academy to study. Several of your sister-in-law's nephews are there, and Haoran has a companion when he goes......"

His mother and uncle were discussing his own schooling, but Chen Haoran was a little absent-minded. He secretly glanced at Li Guan on the other side with his residual vision, only to see that she was leaning sideways to listen to the adult's speech, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, the pearl hairpin on her head shining under the lamp, and the moon-white dress lined her posture like an orchid.

He remembered what his aunt had given him in the room before: "...... The things in the house were all ordered by the young lady. The lady said that you are a reader, and the bedroom should be neat and comfortable, but the study should be spacious and bright. For example, the picture of the high mountain pine on the wall, the rosewood bookcase and bookshelf in front of the window, the tall glass lamp on the shelf, and the blue and white moire incense burner in the corner of the house...... It's all picked by the young lady. There is also the window sash of the pasted cellophane, the lady said that the cellophane transmits good light but is not breathable, and it is hot and stuffy in summer, so she specially made a paste of silk yarn, and said that in winter, she will use the paste cellophane, and the house will be bright, so that it is convenient for reading and writing......"

"Haoran, thank you uncle!" Mrs. Chen called, he quickly collected his expression, and respectfully saluted and thanked Master Li.

Master Li smiled and accepted his salute.

The maid came in and told her that dinner was ready, and everyone had a good time. Li Zhizhi was accompanied back to the house by the maid, Li Zhiwei returned to the barracks, Mrs. Chen took her children back to the East Courtyard, and Li Wan was left by Mrs. Li to talk.

"Is it fun to go fishing today?"

"It's funny, I caught a couple of fish, but they were too small, so I let them go. We also went to the street for a while and ate plum blossom cake and champion beans...... I also bought a lot of gadgets for my child. ”

She hid what happened to Gu Chengyu and Ge Yi, so as not to let her mother think too much.

Mrs. Li looked at her smiling, but her eyes were a little gloomy, thinking that she was tired, and asked a few words to let her go back to the house to rest.

It was three o'clock when he returned to the Remnant Lotus Pavilion, and after Li Guan bathed and changed his clothes, he rested without staying up all night.

When the people who served had retreated, she slowly opened her eyes. The lamp at the foot of the bed glowed dimly, and the furnishings in the room fell into the shadows, slightly mysterious. She opened her eyes wide and looked at the emptiness above in a daze, and there was a refreshing depth in her dark eyes.

The next morning, it was sunset, and Li Wan hadn't woken up yet. There was no movement in the bedroom until lunchtime was approaching. Crane Wang shouted several times through the curtain, and it was quiet inside. She couldn't help but be a little worried, and gently lifted the curtain and walked in.

The gauze tent on the shelf bed of the moon cave door cover was half-hung, and there was no figure on the bed, she was shocked, and hurriedly looked around.

I saw that the window lattice was wide open, the breeze gently shook the curtain, Li Wan was wearing thin white silk pajamas, lying motionless on the windowsill, sleeping soundly with his head resting on his arms.

Crane Wang's pupils shrank suddenly, and he frowned in distress. When she was a child, she loved to sleep on the windowsill when she was uncomfortable, and it had not been like this for many years......

She took a blanket, carefully covered Li Guan, and then stepped back lightly.

Seeing her come out, Xun Fang hurriedly asked how it was.

Hewang said lightly: "It's okay, Miss will naturally call people when she wakes up, you guys go and get busy, I'm here to guard." ”
