Chapter 11: Cousins
The spacious and bright room finally has a lively atmosphere again.
Exquisite dim sum, fragrant hot tea and baked cakes were served one by one.
Ning Changqing and Ning Changrou were also not polite, and after sitting down, they ate up.
Su Ziming and Su Shanyun accompanied one left and one right.
Lunch was served.
Most of them are dishes that Ning Changqing and Ning Changrou like to eat.
Su Ziming and Ning Changqing ate outside, Su Shanyun and Ning Changrou ate inside, and the inside and outside were separated by a row of peony ladies screens.
For a while, the room only heard the light touch of dishes and chopsticks and the sound of people moving around when serving food.
It's a great atmosphere! Su Shanyun sighed in her heart while eating.
In the future, I will always invite my cousin and cousin to come.
It's just that in a few years, when they all grow up, they will have to organize a family and be busy with their own affairs, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to get together once at that time, right?
Thinking of this, Su Shanyun was a little sentimental, and felt that it was more practical to grasp the moment well, so she looked at her cousin Ning Changrou while eating.
With a gentle and dignified face and a down-to-earth and generous demeanor, she already looks like a lady.
In the future, I wonder whose son-in-law can marry a good girl like his cousin? Su Shanyun couldn't help but look at it, and a smile appeared on her face.
After eating lunch and rinsing his mouth, Su Shanyun took Ning Changrou to the banquet room to talk, and Ning Changqing followed Su Ziming to Dongliju.
"How are my aunt and uncle's health?" Su Shanyun asked Ning Changrou. She remembered the bits and pieces of her aunt's love for her in her previous life, and remembered that she always took it for granted in her previous life, and her heart was full of guilt.
In this life, you really have to care more about her old man.
Seeing that Su Shanyun knew how to care about her elders so much at a young age, Ning Changrou's face showed an approving smile, and replied with a smile: "It's all good, my mother said that you like to eat spicy dried tofu and ginger soy sauce, so I made three cans of each for us to bring." With that, he pointed to the six blue and white porcelain jars on the table on one side.
Then, Ning Changrou took out a small package from the cage: "This is the embroidered gown that my mother made for you, a total of two." β
Su Shanyun hurriedly opened it to see.
But I saw that one was trimmed with bright satin and embroidered with delicate colored butterflies. One is of Hangzhou silk and is embroidered with small flowers and birds of various colors. The style is bright and elegant, and the embroidery is exquisite.
My aunt was the one who knew her best, knowing that she liked pink and royal blue, and that she liked butterflies and flowers and birds, so she used these elements on these two gowns.
Moved instantly overflowed Su Shanyun's heart, she said with red eyes: "Auntie is so busy and still makes these for me, it's really hard for her old man!" β
Ning Changrou smiled and scratched her nose: "She misses you very much, when will you take some time to come to Tianjin to walk around." β
"Well, I'll go to Tianjin to see you after Daddy decides on his life's events."
"Is my uncle going to remarry?" Ning Changrou suddenly became interested.
"Uh-huh, Daddy is still so young, he can't just grow old alone, right?" Su Shanyun blushed slightly and said, as if she shouldn't be talking about these things here.
"Did you have a match?"
"Not yet, Daddy is not a casual person, and this remarriage also wants to marry a mutually interested person."
"Well, it shouldn't be difficult to meet my uncle's conditions."
"There are many people who are not in bad condition, but it is not easy to find those who are interested, and some people have lived for a lifetime and have not found them." Su Shanyun said with some emotion. She thought of her past life, so searching, so persistent, didn't she encounter it in the end? But she really hopes that Daddy's luck will be better than in her previous life.
"Not necessarily, although it is difficult, at least you should have faith, right? How boring is this life? Ning Changrou also began to think seriously about this issue with Shanyun's thoughts.
"Yes, in fact, I think even if the marriage comes a little later, as long as you can find someone who agrees with each other, it will be worth it." Su Shanyun said with a smile again.
Ning Changrou felt that Su Shanyun was reasonable, and nodded approvingly.
Then Su Shanyun led Ning Changrou to the guest room for a lunch break.
Ning Changrou likes to talk to Su Shanyun, so she asked Su Shanyun to stay and take a lunch break together, so the two lay on the bed and chatted softly, and an hour passed unconsciously.
When they got up, Green Lotus brought them tea and snacks, and after eating tea and snacks, the two went to the small poetry club to read poems and paint.
This small poetry club is specially set up by Su Ziming for Su Shanyun, which has all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the design of the house is also very elegant and chic. Su Ziming originally hoped that Su Shanyun could sometimes communicate with her best friends here, but Su Shanyun rarely went out on weekdays and was very particular about making friends, so she didn't know many people, and her cousin Su Shanhao was supervised by her aunt Guo all day long, so she rarely came to play with her, and now that Ning Changrou came to Su Shanyun finally had the feeling of having a party with her girlfriends.
The two played the piano and drew for a while with great interest, and then held hands and chatted about family life.
"I don't know what kind of woman my uncle wants to marry." Ning Changrou said with a smile. She is now fourteen years old, and she is more interested in marriage.
"Daddy said he wanted to find someone who was gentle and graceful."
"Is my uncle going to remarry? Why didn't I hear him mention it? Ning Changqing didn't know when he came in, and asked with a surprised face.
"How can someone casually tell you about it, and besides, you've just arrived." Ning Changrou glared at him.
"It's like I'm not grown up yet." Ning Changqing shook his head helplessly and sat down opposite them.
Seeing him come in, Su Shanyun and Ning Changrou didn't dare to continue talking about the topic just now.
Ning Changqing became interested instead, and automatically said, "Actually, I think my uncle should find someone who has seen the world." β
Su Shanyun and Ning Changrou looked at him in surprise.
Ning Changqing immediately put on a posture of in-depth and long talk: "Shanyun, if your father finds a woman who has seen the world as his wife, at least she will not only know how to fight in the nest all day long like other women, she will take a long-term view, and will really think about your father and your future......"
"But what kind of woman is called a woman who has seen the world?" Ning Changrou looked at Ning Changqing with some frightened eyes and asked, she didn't know what he meant, she just didn't know if what he was thinking in his head was the same as what she thought. She felt that Ning Changqing's whole mind had become shocking since she had been to the capital a few times.
"The kind of ...... who travels from south to north, has dealt with different people, and knows the depth of the rivers and lakes"
Ning Changrou immediately thought of those children of the rivers and lakes and the women of the wind and dust, and hurriedly said: "Brother, you really dare to think that if you are really a woman who travels from south to north, she will definitely not be the type of lady who is everyone." β
"Who said that if you marry a wife, you must marry everyone's lady type? Tut-tut, I said that you women sometimes have long hair and short knowledge, and you don't recognize it, if you want to talk about women who are really open-minded and knowledgeable, they are not only pampered in the boudoir. β
"Then do you want to build a yì uncle to marry a chivalrous woman?" Ning Changrou asked, she was embarrassed to say the words 'wind and dust woman'.
"It doesn't have to be a chivalrous girl, you see some dart game, businessmen, and their daughters also go out with them."
"But my uncle is from a scholar's background, isn't it more suitable to find a lady?" Ning Changrou retorted.
Ning Changqing felt angry and funny, and said: "So you women sometimes can't let go of your thoughts, that background or anything is secondary, the key depends on that person, if that person falls in love with her uncle, even if she is a beggar, I think my uncle will love her." β
One sentence caused everyone to burst into laughter.
"What are you talking about? Laughing so happily. Su Ziming walked in from outside.
really said that Cao Cao Cao was here, and everyone was so frightened that they immediately fell silent.
Su Ziming coughed lightly, he knew that they must be talking about something related to him, but he couldn't debunk it, so he said, "What are your activity plans for tomorrow?" β
"My mother said that she petitioned in Guanyin Mountain the year before last, and now my brother has won the top three as he wished, and told us to go there to repay the wish this time. I want to go to Guanyin Mountain with my brother tomorrow. Ning Changrou said.
"Uh-huh, that's good, then let Shanyun accompany you, and I'll let Steward Luo and Jiuzhu go with you." Su Ziming said with a smile.
"Uncle, aren't you going?" Ning Changqing asked hurriedly.
Su Ziming looked at Ning Changqing with gentle eyes and said, "It's the end of the month, and there are a lot of chores to do, so you can't leave, you young people should go out for a walk and have fun." β
"Yes." The three of them said in unison.
Su Ziming walked out with a smile.
