The atmosphere of the New Year in the city of Shuzhou is strong, on this day on the edge of the year, the snow has become bigger, from early in the morning, the snow falls in pieces, the old lady Ji and his party have not returned home, in the early morning, Ji Shoujia took people to the city gate to wait for the old lady Ji and his party.

On this day, Ji Anning coveted the warmth in the bed and deliberately woke up late. She had to wake up later because Old Lady Ji and her party had just entered the door of their house, and the movement was too provocative. Wang's sister-in-law carried Ji Anning to Tian's room, Ji Li was already waiting in the room, when he saw his sister-in-law, he immediately greeted him with a smile, and said to her happily: "Ning'er, I built a snowman with Shi Xiaoye, and after you have breakfast in a while, I will take you to take a look." Ji Anning looked at him and smiled and narrowed her eyes, such a heavy snow, Tian would not allow her to go out of the room under normal circumstances.

Sure enough, Tian heard Ji Lili's words and coaxed: "Li'er, your sister is too young, and now she can't blow the cold wind, you draw a snowman for your sister to see." Ji Anning looked at Ji Li and frowned, and he muttered in a low voice, "Mother, I don't paint well." Tian reached out to take Ji Anning, hugged her to the table, and said to her: "The carrot paste you love to eat is made in the small kitchen, you have to drink an extra bowl of face." Ji Anning looked at the teacup-sized bowl, and only felt that she could still use a bowl. Ji Li leaned over and said with great interest: "Mother, let me feed my sister to eat mush." ”

Tian refused Ji Li once, this time naturally she would not refuse her son's enthusiasm for treating her sister, she smiled and beckoned Ji Li to her side, and handed the small spoon in her hand to him. Ji Li looked at Ji Anning with an excited expression, he stuffed a small spoonful of paste into Ji Anning's open mouth, and then asked for a second spoonful, Tian hurriedly said to him: "Li'er, my sister can't eat so fast, you have to take your time." Ji Li slowed down, and when Ji Anning opened his mouth again, he stuffed the second spoonful of paste.

The bowl of paste was finally finished, Ji Anning immediately shook his head and refused the second bowl, and Ji Li looked at her with a disappointed look on his face and said, "Ning'er, you can use another bowl." Grandfather is back, and we are going to eat in the old garden, so I can't feed you. Ji Anning was very glad that she didn't have to take care of a small child, she could eat slowly. Ji Anning was too lazy to entangle with Ji Shuli, she buried her head directly in Tian's arms, making it clear that she refused. Tian looked at the two brothers and sisters with a smile, and she ordered people to listen to the movement in front of her, and see when it was convenient to go and say hello to the returning old lady Ji.

After Ji Shuli accompanied his mother and sister for a while, he was summoned out by Ji Shou's family. There were only Tian's mother and daughter and a middle-aged servant woman left in the room, Tian put Ji Anning on the couch to play, and directly motioned to the middle-aged servant to sit down and talk. The woman smiled and sat on the small stool, and whispered to Tian: "I just inquired outside, the old lady and his party will return three days late, because the little lady is too young to blow the cold wind, so she can only walk slowly. Tian sighed lightly, pointed out with his hand, and whispered, "That woman, have you seen it?" The middle-aged woman shook her head lightly and said, "The old lady is tightly guarded, and no one will see her, so she will be sent directly to the backyard." Miss, that's a matter of the previous generation, as long as your uncle doesn't speak, you should be considered ignorant of it. ”

Tian smiled astringently and said: "What does he have to say, he is also the same person, but he has not yet made a concubine come out." The middle-aged woman was speechless immediately, so she had to speak: "When I returned to my parents' house on the second day of the Lunar New Year, the uncle and the second master talked to my aunt, maybe my aunt will be able to stabilize my heart in the future." Tian shook his head lightly and said, "I don't have that exclusive idea, and you are not allowed to talk too much in front of people." In a few years, my body will recuperate, and if I can have another child, in the future, I will close my eyes and let him act outside. At that time, when a concubine came out, I could willingly recognize them all. ”

The middle-aged woman sighed and whispered, "Miss, look at the little young master and the little young lady in everything, and think about it, life is a human being, and it will get better day by day." Tian nodded with a smile and said: "Ning'er was not very good at that time, if I didn't have Li'er's support, I thought that if Ning'er continued to be bad like this, the Ji family was afraid that she would not be able to tolerate her." On that day, I followed her, and we were mother and daughter. She's getting better now, and I just think it's getting more and more fun as the days go by. The old lady brought such a mother and daughter back, I wonder if the old lady can get through the twist in her heart? ”

The master and servant sighed softly together, and the middle-aged woman whispered, "The old lady has probably stopped caring about such a thing, she is out of sight and out of mind. Besides, the old lady has complete children and grandchildren, and her children and grandchildren are filial, so naturally she will not take those things seriously. People outside don't know, thinking that the Ji family is dominated by the old lady Ji, but everyone who is close to them inside knows that the family has been in charge of the family more than ten years ago, and the old man and the old lady are the mother and son of the in-laws. The servants around the old lady, as long as they are not stupid, they can recognize who is the real master in this mansion, and they dare not go to the old lady to make trouble. ”

Ji Anning rolled over to them, she was very interested in the old things of the Ji family. Tian gently stretched out her hand and pushed her daughter inside, she smiled and sighed lightly, and said, "Also, the old lady has to be angry, as early as more than ten years ago, when the old lady was greedy outside, she was already angry." Now her mind is not used in the old lady, she is a person who understands, and she will not let her relatives and children worry about her. After she said this, she thought about it and said in a hard voice: "In the future, my Ning'er will marry, and I will definitely not allow her to marry a literati." ”

When the middle-aged woman heard her words, she chuckled lightly and said, "Little Miss's blessing is great, and she will definitely make Miss get her wish." Ji Anning only felt that the sky was thundering, she was not yet a year old, and Tian had already thought about her marriage. Tian whispered to the middle-aged woman: "I heard that more than ten years ago, the old lady and the old lady were a rare loving couple, and later there would be concubines and children between them, but I am afraid that there are other reasons for this, but I have been married for a few years, and I have not understood what the reason is that a loving couple parted ways." ”

The middle-aged woman laughed softly and said, "Miss, you are in the middle of it, forgetting that the Ji family used to be a small family, and with the name of the official family, in fact, the ancestors still have mud on their legs. Back then, the husband and wife were in love, and that was because the old lady had no conditions and no ability, so she could only keep one wife and live a poor life. Later, the eldest son had the ability to support a family, and he naturally had the spare heart to do what he always wanted to do. And the eldest lord, with a filial piety, can't stop the old lady from these things. ”
