There are a total of six families of girls, and there are fifteen daughters and concubines.

Excluding the beginning of the summer and the three little beans, eleven teenage girls who were already sensible got together, plus the maids they brought with them - no one would take a few grandmothers and nurses out at such a time to ruin the fun - the noisy energy was really boundless.

The Xia family has the fewest people.

Of course, the three little masters are not small, but the Xia family is not rich, unlike some people who have a girl with three or four maids by their side, and they are all first and second class - the third class is left to take care of the house - the girl of the Xia family is only followed by a maid by her side, which seems a little lacking in style.

Xia Chu plucked her ears, but she didn't think there was anything wrong with fewer people. Although they are all teenage girls, they all speak crisp and good, but they can't stand the noise too much.

"Sister Chu," Xiurong, the seven-year-old girl of Zhen's family, came to pull Xia Chu's hand: "We're going to play outside, are you going?" ”

Xia Chu swept away the two little girls who were cowering behind her, and nodded lazily.

Among the few small beans, Xia Chu was the eldest, and Zhen Xiurong was only a month away from her. One year ago in December, the other in January of the following year, and so on by a full year.

The two little girls who look exactly the same are the little ladies of the Sun family of the Zuo Governor Yushi, and the power in the family is much more powerful than the two of them, but the problem is that this is a pair of concubines, and the mother is still an outer room.

In ancient times, the poor did not laugh at prostitutes, why? Because prostitutes are lowly, there is no need to even make fun of them.

In the eyes of the wives of serious families, the outer room without a matchmaker is like a prostitute, and it is not as good as the cheap concubine in the family! And as the daughter of the outer room, she is naturally not as good as the concubine born to a concubine with a serious reputation!

These two children were lucky, they were just born, and the mother who was in the outer room was gone, and there were no girls in the Sun family's generation, so they were able to be taken back to the Zuo Governor's Imperial History Mansion since childhood, and they were raised as concubines under the name of the concubine, and they did not fall to the point of "illegitimate children", but they could not hide the fact that they were born in the outer room.

When the biological daughter of the second-grade member of the dynasty became the little follower of the daughter of the fifth-grade bachelor's family, no one thinks it should be.

It's a little unfair, but that's the way the world is.

Of course, Xia Chu's own status is not high, her father is just a Jishi, there is no serious official body, her mother is from an old wealth, although she has the name of "scholarly family", in the end, it is a thing of the past, and people will not eat this set after the new dynasty.

However, she has a good uncle, who is ranked among the top three in the dynasty, and as a niece, she is also a beneficiary.

She can't be angry with her father, and he has really worked hard to study in the past few years, and when Xia Chu saw this, he secretly hinted at some of his tricks...... It's just that she has passed the various hospital tests, and she has no good way to pass the palace test.

If you vote for the emperor's eye, maybe you will be able to make a good name, but if you don't...... Huh.

At the beginning of the summer, he privately thought that with the ranking of the second and ninth ranks, the emperor and his old man were really very face-saving.

"Third sister, where are you going?" Xia Bangqiu's voice came from behind.

Xia Chu turned his head to look at her.

She was dressed very energetically today, the goose-yellow skirt was very flattering to her fair complexion, the rabbit fur cloak wrapped most of her body from her shoulders, and the furry circle around her neck made her face smaller and smaller, looking very delicate, and her eyebrows were picturesque.

She knew how to highlight her physical strengths.

"We're going to hang out." Zhen Xiurong was the first to inform childishly.

Xia Bangqiu hesitated, and the pause was very obvious...... Xia Chu guessed that she wanted them to invite her, but sorry to disappoint her, no one took the initiative to speak.

So she had to put up a childlike smile: "Can I go with you?" ”

"Why are you playing with us when you're so old?" Zhen Xiurong doesn't eat this, she is the only daughter in the family, her mother spoils her the most, she is very confident, so her temper is also very hard, straightforward, plus she is young, she is a little open-mouthed.

To like is to like, and to hate is to hate.

Xia Bangqiu didn't expect to be pushed back by a child so hard, and her face flushed.

Didn't all ancient girls say that they were very precocious? Don't they all like to do superficial work? Just like Daiyu and Baochai, even if they are jealous, they are still amiable on the surface, isn't it? Why did she run into this kind of bear child?

"I'm just worried about the third sister'......"

Don't you think you're worrying too much?

Zhen Xiurong was so sarcastic that she almost blurted out, and when she was pulled by Xia Chu, she subconsciously shut her mouth and turned her head to look at her.

Xia Chu smiled at her, and then said to herself: "Second sister, my mother said that I should not play with you." ”

Xia Bangqiu's face was not red this time, and he brushed it white.

Of course, Xia Chu didn't tell Zheng about Xia Bangqiu and her "borrowing" the silver - in her words, it was a rewarding investment, so asking for silver was not a loan - but Zheng did say this.

Keep her away from the maid in the big house.

Zheng doesn't like Xia Bangqiu, and he doesn't like the arrogant and self-conscious in her eyes. She didn't know what the concubine in this big house was thinking, and she didn't know where she got her confidence, she looked down on others too lowly, but she looked too high on herself.

Think you're smart, so everyone thinks they're stupid?

Xia Chu knew that Xia Bangqiu hadn't given up yet, so he had been getting close to himself.

But she likes the current atmosphere of the Xia family very much, the children are filial to their elders, the husband and wife are harmonious, and the brothers and sisters are respectful...... As for the respectful husband and wife relationship between Uncle Dafang and Uncle Dafang, she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

At least it's much more peaceful than the "Hou Mansion" in her previous life.

In her opinion, there is no big contradiction between the uncle and his wife at all, just a temper tantrum, and an apology that can't be pulled down. Since the old lady can allow them to get along like this for many years without persuasion, it can be seen that it may not be a good thing to talk about it.

There are a lot of things that can't stand scrutiny, don't think that it's necessarily a good thing to say it thoroughly, sometimes it's enough to leave a little handle for the other party and maintain a superficial peace.

The most terrifying thing is the hidden killing machine behind Sweet Honey. Many people just can't figure it out, so they will walk into the abyss step by step.

So, it's better not to change.

Xia Chu didn't know what Xia Bangqiu wanted to do, and she didn't know why she did it. But she has a hunch that what the other party does will inevitably change the stable state of the big house, and then implicate the second room, which she doesn't want to see.

She can cover up for her in small things, but she will never help her.

Xia Chu smiled, and saw Xia Wanqiu shrink back with a white face.

"Sister Chu hates her very much?" Out of the Zen courtyard where the girls were, Zhen Xiurong turned her face to look at Xia Chu, and she smiled happily: "It's just right, I hate her too." ”

"She's my second sister, how can I hate her?" Xia Chu smiled and shook his head, this is something that he can't recognize.

Zhen Xiurong felt that she was wrong, so she was a little disliked.

But she liked Xia Chu very much, and wanted to be friends with her at first sight.

Mother said, this is called face goodness.

She felt that this friend could be saved.

"Then why didn't you let her come with you?"

"She didn't want to come out to play, absent-mindedness would only disturb our interest, so why bother taking her with us?" Xia Chu said very seriously: "I only treat things and not people." ”

Although the method used is a bit extreme.

"Well, you have a point." Zhen Xiurong tilted her head and thought about it.

She decided to be generous enough to forgive her.

Mother said, there is tolerance is great.
