The capital in the first month of the year is bitterly cold.

The carriage entered the Chengguo Mansion and went all the way to the door of the weeping flowers.

The curtain of the car hangs down, as if there is a faint fragrance, and it is vaguely the plum of the ice soul and jade.

When the carriage came to a slow stop, and before he could get off, he heard a loud and earnest laugh.

There were many people who came to greet them.

When the carriage stopped, Zhu mother and the two maids got out of the car first, and then helped Gu Jinzhi.

Gu Jinzhi took their hands and got out of the car.

At the door of the hanging flowers, the beads are surrounded by greenery, and there are full of people, all with welcoming smiles on their faces. With a sweep of his eyes, most of Gu Jinzhi didn't know him.

Six years have passed, and there have been so many changes.

It is a red plum tree on the right side of the weeping flower gate, which is a bit of an impression that Gu Jinzhi planted it when he was still in Beijing. Under the frost and cold, the dark fragrance comes. The branches are complex or simple, all wrapped in sparse shadows, and the style is graceful.

Song Pan'er, Gu Yanzhen, Brother Xuan, and Brother Xiu also got out of the carriage.

Everyone catches up.

The eldest aunt Ning stood up, and Gu Jinzhi remembered her. It's just that in the past six years, she seems to have aged a lot all of a sudden, is she worrying too much about housework?

The second aunt, Ye, also feels a little older.

Everyone stepped forward, saluted, and began to look at each other.

Gu Jinzhi and Song Pan'er looked at them, and they also looked at one of Gu Jin's families.

Song Paner is even more watery and fair than when she was in Beijing, with a pair of big round eyes, like autumn water, bright and moving, sweeping eyebrows, first-class eyes, and self-style.

Compared with her, the complexion of these ladies in the capital is a little dry.

Sure enough, the water and soil in the south of the Yangtze River are nourishing.

Gu Yanzhen didn't change much.

The children have changed dramatically.

"It's freezing, let's not talk here, let's go in first." The eldest aunt said with a smile.

In the hall inside the Hanging Flower Gate, there are many small oil carts with mules parked, each led by a mother-in-law.

Everyone first hugged Gu Yanzhen's family and got into the car, and then waited for the car. Go to the great aunt.

The flower hall on Mrs. Gu's side has already smoked a warm cage, and it is as warm as spring.

Gu Jinzhi took his two younger brothers and sat down with his mother.

There was a room of people sitting in the back.

They are new here, and all eyes are on them.

Song Paner smiled and talked to everyone.

Gu Yanzhen, Gu Jinzhi and a few others were relatively silent, listening with a smile.

The eldest aunt and the second aunt accidentally asked Gu Jinzhi, Brother Xuan, and Brother Xiu, and their sister and brother replied, and there was no superfluous words on the side.

There are several girls here who are the same age as Gu Jinzhi, and they are all cousins in the second room. Although Gu Jinzhi couldn't tell who of them was who.

They looked at Gu Jinzhi from the moment they entered the door, and they were no longer interested at the moment.

Gu Jinzhi is tall and slender, but he has a baby face. The eyebrows and eyes do not seem to be open. The girl with clear soup and noodles is not at all threatening to other girls. And her silent appearance is indeed a little dumbfounded.

Several cousins look thoughtful, and they can all compare Gu Jinzhi.

After gossiping about the two teas, the eldest aunt said, "You have been driving all the way. Are you tired? Go back and rest first, and then talk tomorrow when you are free. ”

Song Paner and the others stood up and thanked them.

They still live in the original Silent Garden.

Jingyuan is in the west of the Chengguo Mansion, next to the second aunt's Decoration Pavilion.

It happened that the second aunt and the three cousins also returned to the room, so they followed, and a group of people crowded around and came to Jingyuan.

In the Garden of Tranquility. The eldest aunt sent more than a dozen maids and mothers-in-law, who had already cleaned them and smoked the warm cages.

"You're busy, too. Let's go back first. The eldest aunt said to the second aunt and the others.

The second aunt smiled, took the three cousins, said some kind words, and left first.

Song Pan'er's eyes were poisonous, and she looked at the courtyard and house carefully. I found that the flowers and plants in the courtyard were all neatly built, and the new plum was planted and there were various flowers and plants. None of them were before. And the use in the house has traces of wear and tear over time.

There is absolutely no reason why they are not in the capital, but instead plant flowers and plants in their yards.

This should be inhabited.

Song Paner was not very happy.

However, the house in the capital is small and has a large population, so it is pitifully crowded together. Thinking about her spaciousness and ease in Yanling Mansion, her displeasure was alleviated a little.

You can't be too harsh.

"In your courtyard, Sister Shan and Sister Po in the second room have lived for three or two years. Both children were careful and did not damage the house. I've seen it before and after, too. The eldest aunt saw that Song Paner's expression had changed a little, and knew that she had always been shrewd, so she said honestly, "Look at it again, where is it not good to sue me, I will change it together." ”

The furniture was all purchased by Song Paner and Gu Yanzhen when they got married, and after they left, the eldest aunt put them in the warehouse, and only took them out when she heard that they were coming back.

They just go to Beijing to drink happy wine and go to relatives, why does Song Paner bother to attract suspicion?

She smiled and said, "Sister-in-law shouldn't be like this, let Sister Shan and Sister Po also toss." There is a guest room at home, and we have a guest room! Asking the children to move around has caused trouble for all of you, and I really can't help it. ”

The eldest aunt smiled slightly: Song Paner has changed her unforgiving personality in the past few years since she returned to Jiangnan......

However, if they were really placed in the wings, Song Paner would not be so easy to speak.

"For it is your yard." The eldest aunt said, "What's not troublesome!" I also want you to stay a little longer, so that we can be close together. ”

Then he called the maids and women in the yard and introduced them to Song Paner, and Song Paner arranged the rest.

The Garden is a medium-sized courtyard with four main rooms and two small transepts on each side.

One of them is a main hall, which cannot be inhabited, and only three main rooms remain.

Song Paner and his wife have a room, Gu Jin has a room, and Gu Xuanzhi and Gu Xiu have a room.

Their luggage has already been sent in.

After the house was arranged, the respective subordinates began to unpack the package and pack it up.

At dinner in the evening, I saw the eldest uncle and the second uncle.

Grandfather was not at home.

Gu Yanzhen asked, "Where is Daddy?" Don't wait for Daddy to eat? ”

"In the past two days, the Queen Mother's mother and phoenix have not been in harmony, and my father has stayed in the hospital and taken care of it for a few days." Uncle Gu Yantao explained with a smile.

The uncle in Gu Jinzhi's impression was a little cold. Now, on the contrary, he is becoming more and more modest. The bigger the official, the more tactful he becomes.

The old man's service in the Tai Hospital confirmed the speculation of one of Gu Jin's family members before they went to Beijing.

Gu Yanzhen and Song Paner didn't ask any more.

The second uncle, Gu Yanhuan, is the most handsome of his father's three brothers. Long hair fluttering, starry eyebrows and sword eyes.

The cousins in the second room are all beautiful and beautiful, and they have inherited the handsomeness of the second uncle.

After having a reunion dinner and recognizing the uncles and sisters in the family, Gu Jinzhi wrote down all their identities.

The next day was the Shangyuan Festival, and the family had arranged a banquet.

Gu Jinzhi excused himself from feeling unwell and hid in the room. As a result, the two younger brothers were in Gu Jin's room. Sister and brother three guesses to play.

The eldest aunt was busy entertaining the guests, but she also noticed the absence of Gu Jinzhi's sister and brother, and was about to order the sister-in-law in the lobby to invite her in person.

Song Paner knew her daughter. If she doesn't want to, she will sit in a daze when she comes out, but it is not beautiful.

“…… The children are all weak and tired from the car. It's from the countryside again, and I'm a little stage frightened. Song Paner explained to her aunt.

The eldest aunt smiled: "Where is the prosperity of Jiangnan that makes Jingshi a little?" The third brother and sister kept saying what the countryside was. It's our fault for treating you lightly......"

Then he said to the sister-in-law in the lobby, "Manjing, you went and invited your sister and two brothers to come." ”

The sister-in-law's name is Lin Manjing.

Song Paner hurriedly persuaded again.

In the end, the eldest aunt asked the sister-in-law to personally bring the maid and mother-in-law, and sent a few bowls of exquisite dishes to Gu Jinzhi's sister and brother.

The Shangyuan Festival was in the middle of the night, and Song Paner also had a good time. I also met a lot of grandmothers and wives I knew before.

On the Shangyuan Festival, the old man still did not return home.

On the sixteenth day of the first month. The old man came back early in the morning.

Gu Yanzhen took his wife and children to salute, and the old man waved his hand and said directly: "Sister Jin, come with me to the palace." Disperse yourselves, and I will not have to serve! ”

The character is still so weird.

There was a bit of ridicule in the uncle's expression.

I saw the old man take Gu Jinzhi into the palace. He frowned slightly, not understanding the old man's intentions.

Song Paner's eyes flashed with irrepressible ecstasy.

This is the opportunity. This is Gu Jinzhi's chance. If she succeeds, she may have a good future, and Song Paner will have one less thing to worry about.

It's not just the uncle, when the old man and Gu Jin leave, the rest of the Chengguo Mansion also heard about it.

Everyone was surprised and guessed the old man's intentions.

The fourth girl Gu Shanzhi and the fifth girl Gu Pozhi in the second room originally lived in Song Paner's Jingyuan.

Now, they have all moved back to live in their mother's transept.

They were gossiping about their mother and sister, and the maid who inquired about the news said that the old man returned home today and took Gu Jinzhi to the palace, and several people were stunned.

The fifth girl, Gu Pozhi, dropped the needle and thread in her hand, and her face changed greatly: "Mother, has there been a change?" What did my grandfather do when he brought his seventh sister into the palace? ”

The second lady, Ye, is also a fox with a belly.

In the month before last, the uncle said that the palace also chose beauties to fill the palace, and the Gu family had a place. The uncle's own only daughter had already married, and the fourth girl in the second room was engaged again, so he quietly discussed with the second master and decided on the fifth girl Gu Pozhi in the second room.

It's just that the original draft last spring, for some reason, dragged on until the end of the year without movement.

The second wife, Ye, sent her husband to play the uncle's tone, and was scolded several times, but she also knew that the draft was changed to March this year.

It's just the first month, and the third room took the girl back to Beijing, and the people in the second room are already thinking about guessing what's going on.

The worst result is naturally that the girl in the third room replaces the girl in the second room.

But everyone in the second room was lucky.

Until now, Gu Jinzhi was led into the palace by Old Man Gu, and the fifth girl, Gu Pozhi, couldn't hold back anymore.

Today's third shift, tears begging for pink tickets!!

Looking at the pink ticket list, the gap between the number of votes in the spring boudoir and the front is getting bigger and bigger, and the relatives in the back are catching up again, and the feeling of being squeezed down a little bit is so helpless! After a few glances at the books on the list, I'm not the most diligent, but I can say it, right? The 15 students who are fast in the code word turtle are already doing their best, and the new book period is easy to suffer from gains and losses, give some motivation and comfort, dear!!
