Chapter 14 Xixi
"Miss, a letter from Miss Jiang." Hearing this, Sister Hui got up from the soft couch very happily, threw the book in hand, picked up the letter and hurriedly opened it, but saw that the envelope had already been opened.
She looked up at Moqin suspiciously but with some sternness, because in her former world, this was called violation.
But when she saw Mo Qin, she immediately lowered her head and explained: "The eldest lady, Mrs. said that she will read the young lady's letters in the future." ”
After speaking, he knelt on the ground with a thud, and his shoulders trembled slightly.
Sister Moqin Hui sighed, Moqin is only ten years old now, when she was in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing, Moqi was only ten years old, she frowned lightly, and held Moqin's shoulder, "Sister Moqin, get up, my mother wants to see what you naturally have to give." ”
Mo Qin kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Miss, for your kindness." ”
Sister Hui hurriedly took out the letter and read it again, Sister Xuan was more literate, but the writing was not very good, she talked about being locked up at home for a month of meditation, and the Jiang family's brother was disposed of and closed for a month, and then said, after a few days of peony blossoms, I invited her and Li Yuyi to enjoy the flowers, and also talked about inviting Mrs. Li and her mother, and also apologized for taking her out to play.
Sister Hui pondered carefully about how well this letter was written, and it was obvious that Sister Xuan was also under the care of Mrs. Jiang, and the two of them were afraid that for a long time, they would have to be a bunch of people everywhere they went like now.
Since the accident that day, in addition to Moqin, there are three second-class maids and two mothers-in-law by her side, who will not leave an inch, plus Wang's mother and Moqi, who will come back to duty in the future, are closely followed by eight people. Helpless, she had no choice but to reply to the letter in an orderly manner, telling Sister Xuan that she was fine, and then talked about the interesting things at home recently, and then handed over Moqin to send the letter out.
A few days later, the Qin family took Sister Hui to the Jiang Mansion to enjoy the flowers, in fact, Mrs. Jiang also took advantage of this reason to formally apologize to the two ladies.
"Two younger sisters, my sister is here to make amends, and the two evil obstacles are really uneasy, which has affected the two daughters of the family." As soon as Zhou and Mrs. Li sat down, they solemnly saluted.
The two ladies were not as good as the Zhou family, how dare they accept the courtesy, they all quickly got up and avoided it, and said again and again. Zhou's face was even more guilty, and he also called Jiang Shaoming to make amends, next to the two ladies to make amends, Jiang Shaoming is a junior, and the two ladies did not avoid it this time.
Zhou knew that this matter was revealed, so he ordered Jiang Shaoming to go to study by himself, and ordered someone to put on the freshly baked exquisite southern snacks.
"Brother Ming is already an adult, I wonder if Mrs. Zhou wants to look at her daughter-in-law for her brother?" Mrs. Li suddenly asked
"Speaking of which, Brother Ming is afraid that he will be sixteen this year." Qin Shi also said
"It's not, I'm also looking at each other these days but there is no suitable one, our master said don't worry, Brother Ming just won the show last year, waiting for the end of the year to get a name for himself and then talk about the marriage event." Zhou said slowly with a smile, the pride in his tone was not concealed at all.
Mrs. Li and the Qin family both had no sons, and they were also envious in their hearts, so they followed Jiang Shaoming and said a lot of things.
On the other hand, the three girls didn't like to look at the gaudy peonies, but Sister Hui saw that a few of them were from her own home, and she was still suspicious and suddenly realized that those pots were the most beautiful peonies in her family mentioned to Sister Xuan in the letter, and said that she wanted to borrow her to enjoy them.
"Ayi, you don't pay attention to righteousness, Sister Hui and I have been confined to our homes these days, and you don't come to see us." Sister Xuan pulled Ah Yi and didn't follow
"How do you know I'm not grounded?" Li Yuyi waved away Sister Xuan'er's paw and said lightly.
Sister Xuan suddenly became excited when she heard this: "Tell me, see how you were also grounded?" ”
Li Yuyi said that the two official ladies disappeared that day, and the city was searched vigorously, so it was naturally impossible for the Li family not to know about such movements. Only then did I know that my girl was also involved, and I also talked to a man who came from an unknown place, although it was through the girl, it was still unorthodox, so I was also ordered to be grounded for a month.
"Isn't your father always open-minded?" Sister Xuan asked gloatingly.
"That day, he happened to be laughed at by the master bookkeeper who married a lady in Beijing, and the family education rules were not strict."
Sister Hui and Sister Xuan said in unison: "The people of the capital are so annoying! ”
Li Yuyi nodded together in a rare way.
The three of them exchanged the boring life of being confined for a month, and then began to discuss some new ways to play.
"It's a pity that my kite was taken away by my mother before I could fly it." Sister Xuan sighed
"I'm even more pitiful, my mother didn't know what to do, but she helped me find an old man in his sixties to be my husband, and I heard that he was already on his way." Sister Hui also sighed
"My mother also called me a master, but it was to teach embroidery, I hid for a year, but the last time something went wrong, I gave her an excuse to learn that annoying embroidery." Li Semantics sighed together.
The three of them let out a long sigh, fortunately, Sister Xuan was born with an optimist and full of combat effectiveness, and after a while, she insisted on looking her to come up with a piece of fun, and the three of them went to the temple to pick cherries together next month.
"I went with my mother last year, and there is such a fruit on the mountain, which is sweet and sour, and the color is very attractive."
Li Yuyi pondered for a while and nodded, but Sister Hui didn't dare to agree casually, "You know that my mother's rules are very strict, and the three of us will definitely not be able to go, if you call them together"
"Cheng, I'll grind with my mother about this." Sister Xuan patted her chest very happily and assured.
But in the end, they still couldn't make the trip, because Sister Hui'er's husband arrived, and she had to meet her husband to pay homage to the teacher, and Li Yuyi was that Mrs. Li suddenly fell ill and wanted to serve the sick, and Sister Xuan thought that it was boring to go by herself, so she obediently went to the boudoir to go to class.
In the end, the sweet and sour cherries had to be bought by Sister Xuan and sent some to the two, and the two of them wrote back and said that they must make an appointment to pick and eat in person next year.
Sister Hui also wrote a party, because she saw too much and couldn't finish eating for fear of spoilage, so she asked the cooks to try to make a few cherry crystal cakes according to the memories of her previous life. only said that it was written in the book to everyone, and even the Qin family didn't doubt it, because her memory was scattered, and the main thing was that the cook was able to comprehend it.
However, Sister Xuan later said that the cook at home was stupid, so she simply sent some cherries to let the cook of the Chu family make pastries and send them directly, but Li Yuyi wanted to ask what kind of book it was, and she might borrow it to take a look.
Sister Hui was flustered for a while, so she had to say that she couldn't remember, but she had only vaguely seen it, Li Yuyi was very disappointed, but she prepared a return gift, which was a spice made by her and her mother together, plus a piece of the legendary "plum blossom" thing called "plum blossom" that was shown by herself. However, she teased with Sister Xuan in private, except that the thread was a ball of red, she couldn't recognize anything, and Sister Xuan directly said that Ayi couldn't embroider a plum blossom in her life, who would want to say it later.
Spring goes to autumn, Sister Hui and they still can't make an appointment to go out of the door in the end, but occasionally the relationship between the ladies, the three of them can also meet, and there are more and more letters.
"Mother, a few days ago, Mr. Li told me about medical books, saying that if there is joint pain caused by years of injury, you can use tiger bone snake gallbladder and add more than ten herbs to make a cloth together, wrap it on the fire, and apply it to the affected area, this year we will try it for my father, my daughter heard Qin's mother say that my father has not slept well for several days." At that time, Sister Hui looked at the Qin family and said worriedly.
Chu Jinmin was carried back from his leg injury that year, even if he asked the imperial doctor to try his best to treat it, he was left with a disability, not to mention the unbearable pain on rainy days in autumn and winter.
And this Mr. Li's ancestor started with military exploits, and then his father was a very famous Confucian at the time of the first emperor, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, but because he was involved in the first prince to plot rebellion and died, the descendants were sent back to his ancestral hometown of Yuzhou, which is a large county close to the southeast of Yizhou, and it was also Qin's many inquiries before finding Mr. Li.
Mr. Li is rich in learning and five cars, but he is not confined to economics, history and politics, and has dabbled in astronomy, geography, medical skills, poetry, and a little bit of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. It is said that he knows a little bit or two, but the Qin family also appreciates his piano skills very much.
Mr. Li is not suitable for entering the office, he likes to travel around, and the Qin family is very considerable, so he returns to Yizhou every ten years to explain to Sister Hui for seven days.
"Well, Mr. Li is a very capable person, you are also a five-year-old girl after the New Year, if you still remember that recipe, why don't you ask Mother Wang to help and make one for your father yourself." Qin said with a smile.
At this time, the Qin family has been nine months, and the Wen Po who invited her said that she would give birth in more than ten or twenty days, and she ignored all these days and left them to Xu's mother. Sister Hui originally wanted to take this opportunity to learn from her, but she was so moved by the Qin family that she praised her for being sensible, probably not to discourage her enthusiasm, so she also handed over the trivial and irrelevant things to her, which should be regarded as a practice to relieve her boredom.
Sister Hui thought about it for a while, this matter is not difficult, so that people can find all the medicinal materials and learn to sew a cloth bag by themselves. So he agreed very simply, and rushed back to his room to get ready.
