Chapter 4: Warmth
"Uh...... Don't cry then, right? After a while, seeing that Jin Yuanyuan didn't cry, You Xiaoya cautiously put down her hand.
"Mother~" Jin Yuanyuan rubbed You Xiaoya and fell softly into her arms.
You Xiaoya breathed a sigh of relief and slowly patted Jin Yuanyuan's back, but as soon as she looked up, she saw Jin Yuanjiang and Jin Yuandong standing at the gate of the courtyard, because the light was not good, You Xiaoya couldn't see their appearance clearly, of course, at this time, she didn't have the leisure to observe the two little children.
"It's time to eat," Jin Yuanjiang's voice was rare and peaceful.
"Mother, Yuanyuan, let's go to dinner!" Jin Yuandong ran to You Xiaoya who was sitting on the rattan chair at the door of the house, he liked the picture of You Xiaoya gently hugging Jin Yuanyuan, although he didn't know that this feeling was called 'warm', but intuitively, Jin Yuandong felt very comfortable.
"Have you been to the ancestral hall?" Originally, when she first came to the old mansion of the Jin family, You Xiaoya should have led Jin Yuanjiang and them to worship their ancestors, but Jin Yuanyuan cried so much on her, so she gave up and only let Jin Shouzhong, the housekeeper who guarded the old mansion of the Jin family, take the two brothers of Jin Yuanjiang to the ancestral hall.
"Back to my mother, I've been there." Jin Yuandong should arrive.
"Is that all going well?" When she asked this, You Xiaoya glanced at Jin Yuanjiang who came over.
"Back to my mother, it's going well." Jin Yuandong smiled innocently.
"Then your yard is all arranged?" In fact, You Xiaoya didn't know why she asked such a sentence, in short, she felt as if since she entered this not small Jin family's old mansion, her feelings for these dolls had changed a little.
It was as if they were all of a sudden who she was, she was more than a decade older than them, and they came here with her, and she had strange responsibilities and obligations to them in the face of the same strange environment, and she always felt that she was with them, and she had to take care of them.
"It's arranged." Jin Yuanjiang responded.
"That's good, Mother He will take care of you in the future, and if there is anything inconvenient, just tell me." Mother He is a roommate left by Jin Yuanjiang's mother, and has been taking care of the two brothers since their mother died.
After that, Jin Yuanyuan was too tired because she was really crying, and before You Xiaoya and they finished speaking, they fell asleep on her, Xiao Cui'er and Jin Yuanyuan's nurse Mother Zhou and another girl, Xiao Jiao, cleaned up in the house, You Xiaoya called Mother Zhou, "Mother Zhou"
"Madame, what do you command?" Zhou's mother came out in response.
"Take the young lady back to the house and rest." You Xiaoya commanded, and handed Jin Yuanyuan into her hands.
"Yes, ma'am." Mother Zhou glanced at You Xiaoya, and then carefully took over Jin Yuanyuan.
"After you take care of Miss, let's go to dinner, it's not too late to get it tomorrow if you don't finish cleaning up." Now in this Hanxiang Courtyard, she is the master, everyone listens to her, and she is not a typical Zhou Papi, she has to squeeze all the labor of others before she is willing, so she eats when it is time to eat.
"Yes, ma'am." Mother Zhou glanced at You Xiaoya again, and then nodded at the end.
"Let's go, let's go eat." After speaking, You Xiaoya straightened the clothes that were messed up by Jin Yuanyuan, and led the two brothers of Jin Yuanjiang towards the courtyard.
The old house of the Jin family was built next to the river where they took the boat today, divided into the front yard and the back yard, the front yard is mainly the hall, the study, the meeting room and the residence of the family, and the middle is separated by various vegetation rockeries and flowing water, which is also quite elegant.
Most of the backyards are wing courtyards, most of these courtyards are distributed in the east and west, and the middle is connected by the corridor and the small bridge and flowing water pavilions and pavilions, You Xiaoya and Jin Yuanjiang They now live in the Hanxiang Courtyard and Mushui Courtyard in the east wing, the two courtyards are not far apart, and they can be reached in five or six minutes.
A necessary way to go from the backyard to the front yard is a small lake introduced by the river outside, which is planted with half a square lotus, and now the weather in April and May is also a lotus leaf field, and there is a faint hint of a rush to draw a flower stem. You Xiaoya took a deep breath and thought of how beautiful it should be in July and August?
There are also many willow trees planted around the lake, around the lake, the willows hang down into the water, and the reflection of the green is swaying as far as the eye can see. There is also a lake pavilion built in the middle of the lake, which is used as a cool place, You Xiaoya can imagine how refreshing it would be to doze off there on a hot day?
It doesn't seem like it's a bad thing to come here!
The scenery here is good, but it takes about two quarters of an hour to walk from the backyard to the front yard dining room, which is nearly half an hour.
This may not matter to the ancients because of a lot of time, but for modern people like You Xiaoya, who are a little lazy and always have a means of transportation when going out, it is an unreasonable trouble.
And the thought of eating a meal every day, going back and forth for an hour, she couldn't help but want to complain.
"Mother, you wait for me......" Jin Yuandong, who walked at the end of the three, gasped slightly and shouted forward.
You Xiaoya has always walked very fast, but after coming here, because of You Xiaoya's memory, she knew that the women here were all happy and small, swaying and swaying Nana, she was afraid that the change would be too obvious and arouse the suspicion of others, so she usually walked in small steps.
But at this time, she was depressed because of this unreasonable journey, and she couldn't help but expose her true nature and walked quickly, while Jin Yuandong, who was short legs, was thrown away because she couldn't keep up with her steps.
Jin Yuanjiang was in the middle, waiting for Jin Yuandong for a while, and looking at You Xiaoya for a while, he couldn't stop the secret anger in his heart, is this person still a woman?! It's just a meal, why is she walking so fast?
You Xiaoya, who heard the voice, stopped her steps, and when she turned around, she saw Jin Yuandong walking at the back, his little short legs were snorting alternately, but it was still too slow in You Xiaoya's eyes.
"As a man, how can you walk so slowly?" You Xiaoya was unhappy to speak.
"Mother's ......" Jin Yuandong was a little aggrieved when she said that.
"What are you talking about? Far Winter is still a child! "Jin Yuanjiang has never seen an unreasonable woman like You Xiaoya, obviously she walks like a man, how can she still make children not walk slowly?!
"What's wrong with the kids? Little children don't grow up? As a man, I even have to walk as a woman, so what's the point of growing up? If you can't walk, you can run, what kind of man is grinding?! ”
When You Xiaoya heard Jin Yuanjiang say that, she knew that she was too aggressive, but if she had to pull down her face and admit her mistake to a little brat, she couldn't do it!
