Chapter 65: A Visit to the Dingbei Hou Mansion
Sister Hui nodded in approval, indeed, in the final analysis, the real master of this mansion is still Chu Jinzhang. Although he is a filial son, he is also a father, and he is the patriarch of the Chu family. The bigger the trouble this time, the more Sister Yan and the old lady showed their true temperament, the clearer Chu Jinzhang could see, in the end, it was his eldest daughter, naturally it was impossible to give it up at will, there must be a chance to reverse it or be willing to reverse it, once she proposed to take her daughter back and raise her in person, even the old lady would not be able to say anything.
Qiao's abacus is very good, and she can be regarded as completely understanding why she has always had a strong ability to observe words and feelings, but this time she was punished and kneeled so embarrassed.
"The third aunt has good intentions." Sister Hui sighed again.
Sister Jing nodded and let out a long sigh. She is only seven years old in the end, and she can't imagine that this is Qiao's bitter plan, but she feels that since she wants to take advantage of the chaos to pick up her sister through family affairs, she doesn't have to kneel under the sun for two hours in front of everyone, where can her body stand it, but she went to find her sister, but her sister sent her away with a few words with a cold attitude, so she was angry and ran to Sister Hui'er to sit down.
To put it mildly, now Sister Hui is an orphan girl, and some things are just said to her, which is not a big deal. I don't want to say this, but I feel a lot more comfortable, but I'm still a little worried about my mother.
"I went back to Shunhetang and had nothing to do, and I was also uneasy when my mother was punished, but now I talk to the third sister, and my heart is much better, but I want to borrow the pure place of the third sister to wait for my mother." After speaking, there was a little shame on his face.
Sister Hui didn't know how many cold nails she had touched in Sister Yan'er's place, she knew her nature, Sister Yan didn't want to see the second young master Liu, I was afraid that she gave Sister Jing a lot of unpleasant words, Sister Jing grew up with her palms since she was a child, so she was naturally not as thick-skinned as Sister Hui and could stand it.
"Let's just drink tea and play the piano, the elders have their own ways to solve problems." Sister Hui was comforting, but when she mentioned playing the piano, she had some itchy hands, and she hadn't played for three days and didn't know if there was any progress.
She thought like this, so she sighed to Sister Jing.
Sister Jing took a sip of fragrant tea and didn't swallow it for a long time, and after about half an hour of relief, she leaned over and asked strangely: "The third sister's piano skills are really average, why do you still like it so much?" ”
Their sisters have taken piano art classes together, Sister Hui'er's posture, momentum, and techniques are very beautiful, if a deaf person sees it, he must think that he is a master, but normal people listen to it but wish they were deaf.
Sister Hui'er didn't see her interested, even the poetry class that was praised by the master was lazy to learn, and the solo piano class was the most serious, although the mother who taught the piano was unbearable, it was not easy to say very unpleasant.
In her previous life, Sister Hui felt that the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, the most elegant temperament of a person was the Qixuan guqin, but in her previous life, the guqin was not mainstream, so she could not learn.
It's easy to be able to wear it to ancient times by chance, so it is natural to seize the opportunity to study. Moreover, since the Qin family left, she has always hoped to inherit the qin skills that the Qin family is best at, but I don't know if it was her modern soul that destroyed this body, or if she was born without inheriting the Qin family's skills, and she can learn everything quickly.
"The fourth sister thinks my piano skills are average? I think it's very good, last time we were in class, my grandmother also said that I have made a lot of progress recently, or I will now order someone to take the piano to play a song, so as to relieve the boredom of the fourth sister. ”
Sister Hui was about to get up and call people, but Sister Jing hurriedly pulled her, "The third sister is kind, my sister is good, let's sit and taste tea for a while, and look at this peach tree for a while." ”
"It's okay, it's just that our sisters are not polite, if you want to hear it, you can come and live in me at any time." Sister Hui Shi Shiran sat down, poured a cup of tea for Sister Jing, and said.
Sister Jing didn't dare to provoke the piano art talk anymore, and turned to talk about other things.
What was Chu Jinzhang's reaction when he returned home at night, but Sister Hui didn't know, because she also had to work with the two mothers and girls to deal with many matters to visit the Dingbei Hou Mansion tomorrow, and the gift of the godmother and godfather naturally had to be seen and prepared by her in person.
Early in the morning of the second day, Wang's mother dressed up for her, because in the filial piety period, but it was the first time she visited solemnly alone, so she picked out a plain white skirt, and only wore a ribbon around her waist to wear the lotus coral pendant that Xia gave her last time to decorate. She is now a half-grown girl, so Mother Wang combed her with a drooping double-ring bun on both sides and a pair of butterfly hairpins.
She got up and looked at the figure in the bronze mirror, although it was more elegant, but because it didn't matter the clothes, or the pair of butterfly hairpins inlaid with sapphires on her head were good things, it was not rude, she nodded at Wang's mother, and led everyone out of the leisurely residence.
Sister Hui originally wanted to go to Shoukang Hall to ask for peace, and by the way, she begged the old lady to allow her to take Brother Xuan with her, but Zhao's mother said that the old lady was sick and didn't see anyone today.
"Mom, I asked my grandmother to visit Dingbei Hou Mansion today, and my grandmother approved it, so I only let Mother Li accompany her, I don't know where Mother Li is?" Sister Hui asked
"Third Miss, don't worry, the old lady remembers, this morning lying on the hospital bed told Mother Li to prepare a gift for you, I'm afraid it's almost the same at this time, you wait in the side hall for a while, wait for Mother Li." Mother Zhao said softly.
When Sister Hui heard this, tears burst out of her eyes, and she choked up: "Grandmother is sick and still thinks about these trivial things about her granddaughter, it's useless to blame her granddaughter, Mom, let me go and see my grandmother." ”
"Alas, don't cry Third Miss, you can understand the old lady's mind, the old lady will be satisfied, you will be more filial in the future, don't cry and break your body." When Mother Zhao saw Sister Hui'er's appearance, although she was anxious in her words, she was satisfied in her heart, and by the way, she gave a look to the maid Qiushuang beside her.
Qiushuang hurriedly stepped forward, holding Sister Hui'er's arm, while Wen Yan led her into the side hall.
Mother Li didn't know what she had prepared, and Sister Hui waited for half an hour before she pretended to run in a hurry.
But his face was as usual, and it was obvious that he was about to enter the side hall door before he hurried two steps to show Sister Hui'er.
Sister Hui took a sip of tea, a pair of eyes roamed around Li's mother's face, and got up with a smile and said: "Mom is tired, even if you walk slowly, it's nothing, but I'm afraid of delaying the hour, and the people in Dingbei Hou Mansion said that it's rude for us to wait for peace in the mansion, and since my mother is here, let's go." ”
Since Sister Hui lost her memory, she is no longer the weak third lady she used to be, which is a well-known thing in the family. Mother Li has always disagreed, but now when she sees Sister Hui'er's words about hiding a knife in her mouth, she believes it a little. But she was on an errand in the old lady's yard, and she also heard that the old lady had specially invited the cold-faced grandmother Liu in the palace to teach, and now it seems to be very effective.
But in the end, the old lady is her master, although she felt a little uncomfortable after listening to Sister Hui'er's words, but it was only for a moment, and she soon smiled and said: "Let the third lady wait for a long time, you are still young and don't know the way to give gifts, and the old lady specially sent a slave to help this is the truth." ”
