On the second day, there was a joyful celebration in the Lin'an Waiting Mansion, and the servants were all smiling and nodding to each other to greet the New Year, "The New Year is good, the New Year is good, and the year is better than the year!" "Hello too! The little girls with their heads looked at the big girls in each room with envy - the rules of the Lin'an Hou Mansion, only the first-class maids can dress more gorgeously during the New Year.

"Look, does it look good on it?"

In Huaishan Garden, Lian Rong smiled and took a crimson silk flower to the sideburns, and wanted to aim at Xingzhao, but she was reluctant to take her eyes off the bronze mirror in front of her.

Xingzhao sat on the top, looked at Lian Rong, covered his mouth and smiled, and asked Lian Yu to pinch her: "These eyes are too busy, look at this cross-eyed!" ”

The little maids who stood in two rows next to them also laughed, and the lotus paste put the flowers in the tray with a puff, and then smiled, and beckoned the girls to come and get them: "Two flowers per person, this is what the girl bought from Feng Ji with the silver of her own month, and it is not worse than making it inside." ”

All the girls in Huaishan Garden can take it, and more than 20 flowers will be gone in a few clicks. In the yard, there are mostly teenage girls, and there are younger ones who are seven or eight years old, holding silk flowers in their hands, vying for thanks, thanking Xingzhao, and going to take care of Xie Lianrong and Lianyu's two sisters.

Xingzhao accepted it happily, and asked Lianyu to send a red seal, the big girl can take two plum blossom-like silver buns, the second-class girl can take one, and the rest can take a slightly smaller osmanthus style bun. The big one can weigh five coins, and the small one weighs three coins, and the silver of the line is only ten taels per month, and this time the two-month share is removed.

The maids kowtowed one by one, the lotus leaf was clever, and took a piece of window paper with fish every year from their arms, and they must stick it on the window, saying that it was their own mind.

Xingzhao took it with a smile, personally applied the paste, pasted it on the glass window, and praised: "It looks good!" ”

A room full of master and servant smiled and passed the morning, and after lunch, the eldest lady sent someone to urge.

Xingzhao took lotus seed and lotus leaves, and went to the main courtyard again, the eldest lady saw Xingzhao coming, and pulled Xingzhao to chatter, "Aunt Wan talked about Sister Xiao'er again, yesterday Zhang Yuan sentenced me to not know what prescription to prescribe, saying that Sister Xiao'er has enough qi and blood, and there is no illness, so I only let her recuperate." Jiangcai sent someone to the east to say that Sister Xiao'er couldn't blow the wind, and most of them couldn't come. I also drew a box of 100-year-old He Shou Wu from the dowry to her, and I wanted to keep it for you to press the bottom of the box."

Xing Zhao saw that the eldest lady was very aggrieved, patted her hands, and said with a smile: "Can I still lack a dowry?" Let's just take it as a loss of money to avoid disaster. She didn't pull it down, and as soon as I saw her, her face was full of lawsuits, and she didn't match her. ”

The eldest lady thought about it, and added a string of red coral engraved Buddha handbags on her wrist, and took Xingzhao to Rongshoutang. In front of Rongshoutang, there was a face-raised, fifteen or sixteen-year-old maid who was welcoming guests, and when she saw the big room coming, she curtsied and said, "Slave Bai Zhi, open the curtain for Sister Suqing." Several masters are here. ”

As soon as the curtain was lifted, the second lady and the third lady were sitting around a table with Mrs. Tai to play pai gow, estimating that it was a bad person, and caught the second master to make up the number.

When the second master saw someone coming in, he cried for help: "Sister-in-law, come over and stand up to me." The red seal that the ancestor will issue will be lost in a blink of an eye! ”

The eldest lady rolled up her sleeves, saluted the two compartments, and Xingzhao received a few more big red envelopes. Mrs. Tai wiped her hands first, wore tortoiseshell glasses, and gave Xingzhao a red envelope with a smile, Xingzhao touched the bulging inside, smiled sincerely and bowed her knees to thank her, and gave it to the lotus rong. The eldest lady replaced the second master, Xingzhao went to the east to find Xingming, Xingming and Xingqing were playing with the flower rope, seeing Xingzhao coming in, Xingming was turning the flower rope into his own hand, unable to get around, nodded at her, it was a greeting. Xingqing got up and said hello: "Fourth sister, Happy New Year!" ”

Xingzhao responded with a smile, and then half sat on the side and watched the two of them play with a smile, one trick after another, turning the dragon and the phoenix dance.

But his ears were stunned, and he heard someone stammering in the compartment on his back: "The son of the master, the relatives of flesh and blood, still can't rely on the respect of no merit and no work to guard the weight of gold and jade, and the situation is subordinate."

It was Xingjing's voice, Xingzhao paused, He Yan, the third master and a few Xiaolangjun were not outside, could it be that he was taking the academic test here? Listening to the clothes for a while, it was He Yan's low voice: "What is the explanation?" ”

"The king's son is flesh and blood, and he can't rely on the fact that he has no merit in a high position, and he has no labor to be worshipped and guards the weight of gold and jade, but he guards the weight of gold, stone and jade, let alone the ministers?"

Xingzhao raised his forehead, and sure enough, he heard He Yan's tone with anger: "This is not a famous article, you are not familiar with it, so forget it." Such a simple paragraph is explained in a lot of nonsense! It's also a shame that your third uncle invited Mr. Ming to make a west seat for you, it's really a shame for our He family! ”

The last sentence raised its voice, and everyone in the eastern second room heard it. Xingming stopped his movements, put the flower rope in a ball and put it on the case, afraid that Xingzhao would be embarrassed, so he leaned closer and said softly to her: "Uncle General Cai also scolded Brother Shi, and the third uncle also scolded Brother Yun."

Unexpectedly, he crossed the scene of the elderly, and tested the line and time first

Xingzhao glanced at the cubicle, the indigo padded bamboo curtain fell straight down, she could imagine He Yan's attitude towards Xingjing, He Yan said more than once that Xingjing was not a father, but like his uncle, he only liked to dance with knives and guns. This is the harshest evaluation of a father for his son. Xingzhao shook his head at Xingming with a smile, and beckoned to her again: "Hurry up and turn over the flower rope!" Ah Yu wants to see the fifth son Dengke. ”

The fifth son Dengke is a good story about the godson in front of Dou Yanshan Hall, the family is harmonious, and the five sons are all the first. Xingzhao is a metaphor, He Yan is too much.

He Yan in the middle could vaguely hear Xingzhao's voice, secretly annoyed, and ordered Xingjing's back in disguise, seeing that the eldest son's face was flushed, but his thoughts drifted to the letterhead received at night, Ying Yi was sharply asking him what kind of feelings he had for Aunt Wan, and said that as soon as she passed the door, he would wait to collect Aunt Wan's body.

Ying Yi has a good temper, but Aunt Wan is reluctant to let go, after all, he has been with him for so many years, he is clever and charming, and the most important thing is that he can catch the tip of people's hearts with every word.

Ying Yi has been getting tighter and tighter recently, and yesterday she even ran to Lin'anhou Mansion in person, and blamed the Fang family for not being able to speak, so she actually involved Aunt Wan. You have to think of a foolproof strategy, not only to get rid of the Fang family, but also to marry Ying Yi, and to protect Aunt Wan

"The husband is a big country, unpredictable, and afraid of ambush. I look at its chaos, look at its flag, and chase it! Xingjing finished reciting loudly, looking up at He Yan with a look of anticipation.

After reciting Xingjing, he saw that He Yan was absent-minded and a little lost, but the third master smiled and said: "Brother Jing'er has memorized this article well, and the third uncle will reward you with a jade ruyi." ”

He Yan listened to the words of the third master, and then he reacted, and was about to speak, when he saw Xingzhao poking his head out from the bamboo curtain, and called with a smile: "Daddy, third uncle!" Grandmother let you out, let's go to the Nine Mile Pavilion together! ”

The Chinese New Year's Eve family banquet is set to be held in the Jiuli Long Pavilion, divided into two tables, and it is a very pleasant place to enjoy fireworks across the Bibo Lake and drink to the moon. The eldest lady had already instructed the needlework room to make a few bright white cotton curtains, hang them in the pavilion to block the wind, put braziers at each foot, and smoke the fruit with citrons, bergamot and papaya.

As the color falls slightly today, the sunset falls between the two mountains and ravines. The group hugged Mrs. Tai and walked towards the long pavilion, turned the corner, and the nine-mile long pavilion was like a big, beautiful Kong Ming lantern appeared in front of everyone.

"It's all thanks to my sister-in-law!" The second lady held the eldest lady and said with a smile.

Xingzhao was led by Xingming, and looked very happily at the long pavilion between the sparkling waves, and the long pavilion was shining with yellow and clear light, which seemed warm and kind—just like the eldest lady.

The eldest lady lowered her head embarrassedly, she was not used to being the focus of everyone, so she hurriedly stepped forward to hug Mrs. Tai and whispered, "Mother, you take your steps carefully." ”

"This year is scheduled to be held in the Jiuli Changting, and it is snowing outside, what if one of the steps is not cleaned, and my mother falls? You just know how to fight brilliantly, but you don't think of your mother's body. He Yan glanced down at the eldest lady and said lightly. I thought of Ying Yi's sharp rebuke last night, and I was all angry at the doctor's mistake.
