Chapter Ninety-Nine: Ronghua Pavilion

After Sister Hui came back, she was naturally puzzled, according to the news she had heard from everywhere before, Chu Jinhui was a very qualified concubine, so qualified that even people like the old lady could tolerate him, and when he grew up, he also paved the way for him to marry a wife and have children and become an official. And it is rumored that Chu Jinhui does not have much contact with Aunt Zhou on weekdays, and Aunt Zhou also tries her best to hide her sense of existence in front of the old lady and Chu Jinhui, and she is also very qualified.

"Could it be that Sister Hui'er groaned for a long time, gently spit out two words in her mouth, and hesitated between her eyebrows.

"What does Miss want?" Mo Qin saw Sister Hui open her mouth, approached closer, and asked.

"You go and prepare, I'm going to write a letter." Sister Hui immediately ordered.

She had a bold idea, and based on the news she had received from meeting Mr. Li before, she couldn't say that it was about to begin.

"Ink painting, come here." Sister Hui came to find an ink painting.

"What do you command?"

"You go and find out what happened in Shoukangtang and Tangyuan from the old lady's birthday to today, remember to be careful about this matter, and don't let the old lady's people find out about it."

The ink painting nodded solemnly, "Yes, the slave knows." ”

Seeing this, Wang's mother leaned over and whispered, "Miss didn't deliberately hide this matter before, why did she let Mo Hua go to find out now?" ”

Sister Hui shook her head and said, "I can't say for sure, but Mom, you help me guard against some ink books, I see that there is something wrong with her." ”

Now it happened that Moshu was instructed to follow Zhou's mother to the kitchen to get some snacks, so Sister Hui took the opportunity to say to Wang's mother.

"Moshu has always been very thoughtful about what Miss commands, why is Miss suspicious of her?" Wang's mother was puzzled

"After all, she was given by the old lady, and I can't say anything about the others, I hope I am more attentive, but my mother pays more attention." Although Wang's mother was puzzled, she responded when she saw Sister Hui say this.

On the second day, go to Shoukang Hall to say goodbye.

On the way, I met Sister Xian and Sister Yan, and these two still see each other every ten days. Even yesterday, Chu Jinhui's family returned home and didn't come out to see each other. Both of them are not as radiant as they usually look.

Sister Yan is still always arrogant, her neck is held high, followed by a bunch of maids and servants, the pomp is even bigger, the pride on her face is not affected, only seems to be less happy smile, the previous coldness is just because of her temperament, and the current coldness is indifferent from the heart.

Sister Xian'er is just the opposite, although she has a smile on her face, she can see at a glance that she is reluctant to come, and no one can coax her. But thinking about it, the old lady probably didn't think that she could really coax her, as long as she was willing to pretend to be satisfied.

"Eldest sister, sixth sister." Sister Hui approached from the intersection and greeted first.

"The third sister lives alone, and the backyard is still cold?" Sister Yan saw that her face was even colder, and her words were sarcastic

"Seeing that autumn is coming, the chrysanthemum wine given by the eldest sister last year is still there, and it is indeed a pity to drink it alone. I'll bring it another day, and then let Sister Yun Shu make some delicious pastries, let's eat them together, and by the way, you can also go to my sister's courtyard to enjoy the red leaves, I heard that the red leaves were moved from Sunset Peak by the third aunt specially for you. ”

"Such a good thing, the eldest sister can't enjoy it alone."

After Sister Hui finished speaking, Sister Yan showed a faint smile on her face.

Seeing this, Yun Shu behind him also smiled and said: "The third lady doesn't know, no matter how good it is, but you don't often come to talk to the eldest lady, if you are free, just come, the slave will make you your favorite red bean milk cake." ”

"It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, let's wait a while, and call the sisters to go to the eldest sister's yard to make trouble." Sister Hui proposed, first look at Sister Yan, and then look at Sister Xian.

Sister Xian smiled and nodded: "If the eldest sister doesn't dislike it, I'm happy." ”

Sister Yan didn't speak, but let Sister Hui take her arm and go to Shoukang Hall together.

By the time of Shoukang Hall, the second room of Fahrenheit and Sister Zhu were already there.

Sister Zhu was talking something to the old lady, while Fahrenheit was serving tea and doing the work of autumn frost.

"Say hello to Grandmother." The three of them saluted together.

"Get up." The old lady raised her hand and smiled.

"It's autumn, remember to tell your mothers to prepare some lung-nourishing things and food."

"Grandmother Xie cares." The three of them thanked each other with a blessing.

"Sister Yan'er is okay living in that Ronghua Pavilion?"

When Sister Hui heard this, she was amused, the old lady named the house where Sister Yan lived was really simple and rude. Whether it is the previous residence or the current Ronghua Pavilion on the side of Bifeng Pavilion, it expresses the old lady's hope that Sister Yan will be rich and glorious. I'm afraid that Chu Jinzhang and his wife don't understand, but they have to understand.

Sister Yan has always been the cutest to the old lady, but now she is injured, if she was afraid in the past, she would have smiled well-behaved, snuggled up to the old lady and said a lot, but this time she only lowered her head and replied: "It's okay for the granddaughter to live, and the grandmother doesn't have to worry." ”

The old lady looked at Sister Yan'er's eyes and was also very hurt, and she paused for a long time before nodding and saying, "It's good to get used to it, your mother is in charge of the entire Hou Mansion, and if you don't have anything there, come to your grandmother and say, grandmother will go and collect it for you." ”

In the end, it was the girl she raised with her own hands, and the girl who had lived on the tip of her heart for so long, and she had to be alienated because of her fate, but the love in her heart still couldn't be easily parted.

Sister Yan didn't see how happy she was when she heard this, she just squatted down and thanked her again.

The old lady felt that her heart was congested, and she didn't talk about it anymore. Fahrenheit is a little wooden, if Xiao Li and Qiao can come out and liven up the atmosphere, they just care about doing what they are doing.

Fahrenheit was about to add tea to the old lady, but was interrupted by a wave of his hand: "You go and rest, let the autumn frost come."

Fahrenheit smiled awkwardly, handed the pot to the side of Autumn Frost, and sat down.

The situation became more and more calm, and after a while, Qiao's family came with Sister Jing. Qiao's family and the old lady are not very affectionate, but the housekeeper director, how many words can he say about firewood, rice, oil and salt, and the whole hall is the regular report and instructions of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

"Tangyuan, your fourth brother and sister are tighter, she has suffered a crime this time, just give whatever she wants." The old lady finally commanded

"Yes, mother." Qiao Shijun smiled and responded.

"You are concubines, you are also young people, go to enlighten her more, although there will be no heirs in the future, but she also gave birth to two brothers, which can be regarded as worthy of the ancestor of our Chu family and the fourth child."

Fahrenheit and Joe got up and got down.

The old lady's eyes were full of interest, and she waved away everyone with a smile on her face. Everyone saluted, and then went out of the door of Shoukang Hall, each busy.

"Sister Yan, she was hurt by me." Everyone left, and the old lady let out a long sigh.

"The old lady can't help it, compared to the longevity of our peaceful waiting, this is just an expedient measure." Zhao's mother comforted.

"The fourth child only has these two sisters-in-law in the future, and there is no half of the concubine over the years, in the end it is still a little thinner, and it will have to be pressed in the future, and it is good to give birth to a few concubines."

This time, Zhao's mother hung her head and didn't answer.

The old lady shook her head, her face was heavy, and the corners of her mouth drooped, showing her fierceness.

Walking out of the door, Sister Hui pulled Sister Jing and walked to Hua's side: "Second aunt is fine." ”

"Hmm." Fahrenheit smiled and nodded at the two in response

"Today's weather is very good, the eldest sister moved to a new house, and the red leaves of Ronghua Pavilion are gradually revealed. The eldest sister said that she invited our sisters to watch together, can you let the fifth sister join us? ”

Sister Hui finished speaking, and Sister Zhu'er's eyes with thick eyelashes radiated brilliance and looked at Fahrenheit.

Fahrenheit glanced at Sister Yan and saw her noncommittal look, slightly hesitant.

Seeing this, Sister Jing said: "The second aunt knows that the eldest sister has always had a thin face, but she also likes the fifth sister very much in her heart. ”

Sister Zhu also glanced at Sister Yan.

Sister Yan thought that she couldn't hide, so she replied lightly: "If the fifth sister is free, she can do it together." ”

When Hua Shi heard this, he was overjoyed, and immediately smiled: "Where is she busy with a child, but she is young, if she is disobedient, Sister Yan, you are a sister, just teach a lesson." ”

Sister Yan nodded, and walked forward with someone.

Hua's face was slightly embarrassed, Sister Jing and Sister Hui didn't know what to do, so they made a salute and took Sister Zhu to follow Sister Yan and Sister Xian.

Ronghua Pavilion is really worthy of this name, the whole courtyard is atmospheric and rich, needless to say, the furnishings in the house are not to mention, that is, the two welcome pines at the entrance of the courtyard are also transported by the old lady from the south through the Grand Canal.

"It's a beautiful house." Sister Zhu had a baby voice, and she praised as soon as she entered the door.

Although Sister Yan was heartbroken by the old lady's abandonment, the temperament in her bones has not changed, and when she heard this, she showed some smiles on her face, looked at Sister Zhu and said with a smile: "It's just some ordinary things, if the fifth sister likes it, just take it." ”

When Sister Xian heard this, her eyes lit up, and she looked at Sister Zhu with envy and jealousy.

Sister Zhu was also very happy to thank her when she heard this, but she shook her head and said bluntly: "These are the eldest sister's, not mine, if you want to go back, my mother will scold her." After saying that, he squeezed his nose, very naughty and cute.

There was no one in this Hou Mansion who spoke so directly, and all the sisters suddenly moved their eyes from those golden and jade things to her face.

"Yun Shu, you go and bring my string of white jade beads to pack it, and send someone to the Banyan Garden in a while." Sister Yan directly found Yun Shu to come and order.

Yun Shu responded with a smile.

Sister Xian'er looked at Sister Zhu'er's eyes with more exploration.

If Sister Yan has always loved to show off, she is by no means a very generous person. Unless she doesn't like the things in her hand, or can't look at them, she will give them away, otherwise, outsiders can only watch and admire from a distance, but there is no precedent for taking them away. Although she doesn't like it very much, it can't be easily given to others.

Sister Zhu saw Yun Shu take out the string of beads, the white jade was white and flawless, and she made a string in the shape of a small jasmine flower, which can be used as a bracelet or as a hair ornament, and the workmanship is exquisite and beautiful.

"Such a good thing, eldest sister still don't give it to me, my mother will definitely say it when I go back." Sister Zhu'er expressed regret, and the action of giving Yun Shu the box was also very slow, obviously liking it and giving it up.

"Take it, Yun Shu will say to the second aunt." Sister Yan didn't want to entangle, so she gave Yun Shu a look.

Yun Shu turned around and took the box and went outside to explain to a little maid to go to the Banyan Garden.

"Miss, everything is ready, just wait for the third lady's chrysanthemum wine." After a while, Yun Shu walked into the house to report to Sister Yan, and looked at Sister Hui with a playful look as she spoke.

Along the way, Sister Hui forgot about this stubble, and Sister Yan also looked at her with a cold face but a good look.

"Third Miss, you ordered the slave to get the chrysanthemum wine." Sister Hui was embarrassed, but saw Moshu holding a jar of wine into the door to relieve the siege.

Qiu Ju thought she was thoughtful, and she forgot about it this time, her face was as red as a heavily coated rouge, and when she saw the ink book coming, she immediately smiled on her face, and walked quickly to take over the wine jar, "Come on, the wine has arrived, Yun Shu, let's go and pour the wine, and wait for the ladies to come." ”

Yun Shu nodded, leading the way.

Sister Hui rejoiced in her heart, and glanced at the ink book with approval.

Moshu smiled, not surprised.

Seeing this, Sister Hui'er's heart calmed down again.

(Ask for a collection!) )
