Chapter 85: Confession
Xiuqian came back from the courtyard of the second room, and the sisters set the meal.
After dinner, Xiuzhi and Xiuqian continued to fold the little mouse for Linghui with a handkerchief, Linghui seemed to be the first time to see so many people playing with her, she giggled happily, and her saliva flowed to her chin.
Linghui was happy and kept shouting "Auntie".
So she held up a little mouse in front of her and taught her, "Mouse." ”
Linghui smirked and continued to call, "Auntie." ”
Xiusun was helpless, sat down on the Xiangfei couch next to her, picked up Linghui's little jacket, and cut off the protruding threads under the lamp.
Throughout the night, the sisters actively taught Linghui to speak, but there was no progress.
After the initial outburst, Xiusun's love gradually calmed down, and she gradually deduced that Linghui's survival situation was not as simple as she initially thought.
Ke Min is not Mrs. Chen's preferred daughter-in-law, and Ke Min first fell in love with Chen Xu, in this marriage, Ke Min used a lot of means, and finally married into the Chen family as he wished.
Xiusun still remembers the correspondence with Ke Min in her previous life, Mrs. Chen didn't like her, but the Liangguo Mansion was powerful and powerful, and she was very decent in front of the Queen Mother.
And no one expected that the Liangguo Mansion would fall once, and Ke Min committed suicide by throwing himself into a well, leaving only this poor girl.
In order to draw a clear line with the Liangguo Mansion, the Chen family probably did not attach importance to Linghui, so they lost Linghui to Aunt Hu.
Children learn to speak, not necessarily only learn what adults teach, they can imitate what they hear intentionally or unintentionally on weekdays, and they can imitate it more often, and Linghui can only say the word aunt, I am afraid that it is not only because there are people around Aunt Hu, but on weekdays, except for the word aunt, Linghui can't hear other words.
How terrible it must be.
If you can control the environment around Linghui to such a degree, you will definitely be able to kill Linghui anytime and anywhere.
Xiusun only felt a burst of creepy, and suddenly thought of the situation in the afternoon, maybe this time Linghui disappeared from the second old lady's study, it was an action. In front of the study is such a large pond that if you fall into it, you will get sick if you don't drown.
How can an aunt do this, how can there be no shadow of the Chen family in this!
Linghui is okay if he is a boy, for the Chen family, it is a inheritance bloodline, and for himself, if he can't live at home, he can still live alone.
It's just a girl, Chen Xu is the eldest son and grandson, sooner or later she will continue the string, if the new lady's eyes are smaller, Linghui is likely to become a thorn in the flesh of others, plus her mother's family has such a reputation on her back, not only does it not have any deterrence for the Chen family, but it may also become a burden at any time, Linghui's existence has become the last connection between the Chen family and the Liangguo Mansion, and it is cut off, and it is completely clean.
So what about Chen Xu, what is his attitude?
Thinking of Linghui's future, Xiusun's heart was like a knife, and she couldn't wait to take Linghui to her side to raise her.
But she is no longer the same as in her previous life, she is still a child herself, what position and what posture is guarding her?
At night, Xiusun put Linghui on her bed, let Ren's mother sleep on the Xiangfei couch, and the little magpie and Ah Hong slept on the Luohan bed in the east room.
The moonlight in the night sky was bright, and through the thin silk tent fell on the child's face, Xiusun lay on her side, quietly adapting her vision to the dim light.
Linghui's eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Ke Min, Xiusun grew up with Ke Min in her previous life, and she often slept on the same bed like this, and she is very familiar with how she grew from the harmless jade doll when she was young step by step to the appearance of the disaster that brought disaster to the country and the people later, and now if you look at Linghui carefully, I am afraid that there is also this trend.
The next morning, the old men in the outer courtyard were hangover and did not wake up, Xiusun had to entrust Linghui to Ren's mother to go to class, absent-minded all morning, and finally waited for the second old lady to pass the word, saying that she should take Linghui to meet her cousin.
Cousin? When did she have an extra cousin?
The mother-in-law who passed the message was from the courtyard of the second old lady, and she had always liked Xiusun, so she reminded, "Then the newly appointed Chen Zhixian calls your grandmother the sixth old lady your cousin, so counting, isn't Chen Zhixian your cousin?" ”
Xiusun was stunned, she knew that the family was intertwined, and she could always beat around the bush and find out some kinship, but now she actually wanted to call Chen Xu's scum a cousin, and she was still a little unhappy in her heart.
She instructed Ren's mother to carry the child with her to the courtyard of the second old lady.
The second old lady's banquet room was a happy scene.
The second old lady sat on the Luohan bed, the third wife Ji Shi stood beside the second old lady, the second old lady was not there, the third old lady Chu Lun accompanied Chen Xu and Xu Jingxing to sit at the bottom, the grandson Xiudi of the second room was not there, only Xiuyun sat on the small pestle next to the third wife.
"This is Linghui, this kid is really smart." When the second old lady saw Linghui, it was very rare, and asked Ren's mother to put Linghui on the Luohan bed and let her play by herself.
Xiusun saluted a few elders first, and when it was the turn of the two distinguished guests, the second old lady introduced her, "This is your cousin, hurry up and salute your cousin." ”
Xiusun only felt that there were herds of camels like sheep wading through the water in his mind, and his face remained calm, and he took out the spiritual leader who was mixed in the palace back then, bowed down, and said crisply, "Hello cousin." ”
Chen Xu hurriedly got up and said, "I haven't thanked my niece for helping me take care of Linghui." ”
Xiusun smiled gently, made a little embarrassed, blessed, and said, "It's all strange that Xiusun is young and ignorant, I didn't know my cousin when I saw it yesterday, but I didn't expect Linghui's cousin and niece to fall in love, blood is really thicker than water." ”
These words made Xiusun's teeth itch, and if it weren't for perseverance, she would have vomited. Blood is thicker than water, who the hell grandma's blood is thicker than water with your Chen family, and the broken place where you eat people and don't spit out bones, if it weren't for my family's Linghui, who would be willing to deal with you.
"Yes, yes, Linghui has been lonely since she was a child, and I feel relieved to be favored by your cousin." Chen Xu said a few words.
The third wife continued, "Xu Shisun is my maiden cousin, and you call your cousin." ”
Xiusun was very obedient, and called her cousin obediently, bowing her head and lowering her eyes the whole time, and made up her mind not to look at the eagle-like eyes.
Xu Jingxing returned the salute and didn't say much.
Xiusun saw that they were still waiting to continue to talk about their daily routines, so they blessed the elders and said, "The second grandfather sent a message to his granddaughter, saying that Linghui would live in our house for a while, I saw that the clothes brought by Linghui were not enough, and I was about to ask the eighth sister if she had any clothes from her childhood, and gave Linghui two pieces to wear for two days." ”
The second old lady raised her eyebrows, Chen Xu's face stiffened, and the third lady immediately smiled, "Naturally, Xiuyun, you take your seventh sister to find it." (To be continued.) )
