Chapter 204: First Arrival in Ye Mansion
Yefu is in the west of Cangzhou City, and Ling'er and they happened to enter the city from the west gate, so they only walked for about half an hour to reach Yefu. A few maids in front of the mansion were looking over here, and when they saw the steward who led the way, they immediately said happily: "Come on, come on, go and report to the ancestors and masters." ”
The carriage stopped in front of the Ye Mansion, and the leading maid stepped forward, "Thank you for your hard work, Steward Zhao." ”
"Don't dare, don't dare, the spring pretty girl is hard."
"Miss Cousin is inside?"
"Yes."
At this time, the third sister had already lifted the curtain, Ling'er got out of the carriage by herself, and jumped out of the carriage with the third sister, scaring Chunqiao so much that she couldn't do it, she hurriedly came over to help Ling'er: "Miss Cousin, are you not injured?" ”
"It's fine!" Ling'er picked up the tenth sister from the car, and when she turned around, she found that the maids behind Chunqiao were whispering and glancing at herself from time to time.
Ling'er paused for a moment, and reacted in a moment, it turned out that her habitual actions had become a hillbilly in the eyes of these girls, and the boudoir lady of a large family had always stretched out her hand with her clothes open, and the next carriage must be carefully supported, delicate and shy and half-covered with a pispass, how could there be someone like herself?
Chunqiao also noticed the inappropriate behavior of the maids in the back, and she immediately pulled down her face: "You little hooves, are your skin itchy?" Why don't you come and help Miss Watch with her carry-on luggage? ”
The little maids immediately became well-behaved, and when they were all blessed, they came forward to get into the carriage to get things. Ling'er hurriedly said: "No need, our things are all on the donkey cart behind, only a few burdens, we can take it ourselves." ”
"I can't do it, Miss Cousin, that's what we should do. If you don't let us take it, the ancestors blame us for being punished! ”
Ling'er thought about it, and she was not reluctant, so she personally took them out of the above baggage, and then said to Chunqiao:
"The rest of the souvenirs I brought to my parents and uncles and uncles, although they are not worth a few dollars, are all produced in our own land. Let's give my grandmother and my relatives a try! ”
Chun Qiao smiled: "Miss Cousin has a heart." The ancestors and the masters must like it very much. ”
Chunqiao beckoned the two little guys to come over and asked them to drive the carriage and donkey cart to the side door, and Long Ping and Long An finished their task and said goodbye to Ling'er. Qi Liu also said that he had other important matters, if necessary, he would go to the Dingjia Restaurant in Chengnan to find him, and then said goodbye and left, so that Ling'er, the third sister and the tenth sister were left. That's fine, so as not to trouble people to make room.
Spring is leading the way. took Ling'er and a few people to enter from the small door next to the main gate of Ye Mansion, sat in a soft sedan chair and walked for half an hour, stopped in front of a tall courtyard gate, and said:
"Miss Table. In front of this gate is the front yard, where the two masters and several young masters live; Behind this gate is the backyard, and the hostesses of the house live in the backyard. Please watch Miss inside. ”
The inside of the Ye Mansion is neither too big nor too small, and the layout of the front yard is atmospheric. The layout of the backyard is exquisite and exquisite, and the small courtyards in the backyard are built next to each other, during which the trees are shady, flowers and plants are shaded, but they do not feel crowded, but they add a bit of elegance.
Mrs. Ye's courtyard is in the innermost part on the right side of the entrance, and this side is right against the street, which is a quiet place. As soon as Ling'er stepped through the courtyard gate, two beautiful women supported Mrs. Ye to meet her, "My good Ling'er, you are finally willing to come to see my old woman!" ”
Ling'er hurriedly walked a few steps quickly, and half-squatted in front of Mrs. Ye: "Ling'er asks grandma for peace." ”
"Get up!" Mrs. Ye personally helped Ling'er up, and took her hand and stared at her for a long time, tears flashing in her eyes: "Look, they've lost weight!" ”
Ling'er tilted her head and said innocently: "How can there be, those shark fin bird's nests sent by grandma have made me fat, you see, my clothes are about to become smaller!" ”
Mrs. Ye said happily: "Okay, it's good to grow a little meat, and only those who have meat on their bodies will be blessed." Oh, the last time it was all purchased by your eldest aunt, Ling'er, come to give your eldest aunt a gift. ”
Ling'er hurriedly saluted the woman, the woman smiled and helped her, stared at her carefully: "This child is really good, he looks the most like the third sister, no wonder my mother thinks about it all day long, and always asks me why Ling'er hasn't come to see me?" ”
The woman pinched her throat and learned vividly, causing everyone to giggle, Mrs. Ye patted her and said angrily: "You are not in shape, now that our Ling'er is back, you have to make arrangements, let me know that she has been wronged a little, I can't spare you." ”
The eldest aunt hurriedly responded with a smile: "Ancestor rest assured, I have already instructed my subordinates to clean up Yanfang Courtyard, changed the window paper, made the quilt, and the fabric has already been prepared, just wait for the niece to come and measure the size to make clothes, and it will come out in three or five days at most, the ancestor thinks this arrangement is good?" ”
"Okay, okay, it's better for you to be in charge!"
The eldest aunt smiled brightly, and the other woman who was holding Mrs. Ye next to her rolled her eyes, and when she saw Ling'er being hung aside, she smiled and said: "Ling'er, I am your second aunt, my Zhiyu is as old as you, you can be a companion in the future." Zhiyu, why don't you come over and greet your sister Ling'er. ”
A fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl next to her came over and took Ling'er's hand and said with a smile: "My name is Zhiyu, I was born in February, I don't know which of us is older?" ”
This little girl looks similar to her second aunt, her appearance is mediocre, not beautiful or ugly, but fortunately, her smile is soft, giving people a feeling of a breeze, Ling'er said: "I was born in May." ”
"Then I'm older, it's time to call you Sister Ling'er."
Ling'er nodded, slightly blessed: "Sister Zhiyu, this is my sister, called Yang Qiao'er, but we usually call her Tenth Sister." ”
Zhiyu liked it very much when she saw the tenth sister, and pinched the tenth sister's face with a smile: "The tenth sister is so cute." ”
Old Mrs. Ye said happily: "Look at their sisters, they seem to know each other by nature, Zhiyu, you are a sister, you can take care of your sister Ling'er more in the future." ”
"Ancestor, don't worry, I will treat Sister Ling'er as if I was my own sister."
She glanced at a flamboyant-looking little girl in pink next to her and gave her a look, but the girl pouted and turned her head, the eldest aunt glared at the girl, turned around and smiled: "Mother, you see we can't stand at this door all the time, right?" ”
Old Mrs. Ye paused, and clapped her hands with a smile: "Look at me, I forgot everything when I was happy." Come, Ling'er, let's talk in the house. ”
Old Lady Ye took Ling'er's hand and walked inside, followed by a large group of other warblers and Yanyan. (To be continued)
