At three o'clock, Xianglan took a small sedan chair and returned home. At this time, the dinner in the house had just ended, and the garden was about to be locked, and the lights were turned on in every house, and it was quiet everywhere. Xianglan chose a cool and secluded path to walk, and when she walked to the back door of the courtyard of Zhichun Hall, Ying Ying saw two people standing behind a strange stone and talking, and walked closer, and looked at it through the twilight, but saw that the two people were Yingshuang and Silver Butterfly.

Xianglan was startled, hurriedly sped up her pace and hid around the corner, and quietly showed her head to see that Yingshuang was whispering something to Yindie, and Yindie nodded from time to time. At the end, Yingshuang took out the scattered silver taels from his sleeve and stuffed them into Yindie's hand. Yindie refused a few times, and then stuffed the silver into her sleeve as good.

Xianglan secretly thought, "Could it be that Yingshuang is going to buy the silver butterfly?" Be more wary of her in the future. ”

Thinking about going around in a big circle, he walked in from the main gate and went to the east chamber to thank Qinglan. Qinglan shook her fan, wore a white silk cedar and a silk skirt sprinkled with flowers, crooked on the chaise longue in front of the window to close her eyes and recuperate, and casually asked about the situation at Xianglan's house. Xianglan saw that she was not in good spirits, so she kowtowed and came out.

When she returned to the room, Yindie had already returned to the house, sitting on the bed, holding her knees with her hands, and staring blankly into the distance. When Xiaojuan saw Xianglan, she jumped up and ran over, and said with a smile: "You're back, how are you at home?" ”

Xianglan smiled: "You don't have to worry about it, the family is fine." As he spoke, he took out the sweet candies he bought from the shop and shared them with everyone.

Just as Chunling entered the house, she said hello to Xianglan, turned her head and saw the silver butterfly, raised her eyebrows, and pointed and reprimanded: "I said a long time ago, my aunt and grandmother want to take a bath, let you go to urge water." It's better for you to sit on the bed like your master, and do you have to set up an incense burner to make offerings to you? ”

Yindie was startled, hurriedly got off the bed, ran out to urge water, Chunling scolded: "Eyeless obscene thing, I really think of myself as a grandmother!" ”

Xianglan saw that there was no fuss, and there were already a few little girls standing in the courtyard at the other end of the main room to probe their brains, so she pulled Chunling back and said with a smile: "Sister, don't be angry, I'll pour you a bowl of tea." ”

Chunling took a small handkerchief and fanned her arms and said, "I am angry when I see her virtue!" You are not in the house today, so I don't know, the little hoof sticks to the uncle, made a purse to make do with the uncle, and said that he wanted to give the uncle a whole dress, and the hand touched the uncle, but I didn't expect to just reach out and let the aunt bump into it, thanks to our aunt's kindness, I didn't embarrass her on the spot, and waited for the uncle to leave before she dropped, and she was removed from the rice for three months. ”

Xianglan opened her mouth wide in shock: "She, she's bold......"

Chunling snorted and said, "How dare you be, it's crazy." She also said in private that she was wronged, and said to people who didn't know, 'I was punished for just dressing up my uncle', and even me and Xiaojuan took her to scold. He lowered his voice and said: "Tell you quietly, don't tell others, I heard Wu's mother say that my aunt plans to call Yindie's old son into the house after a while, and let her take her back." ”

Xianglan said: "If that's the case, it's really a shame." ”

Chunling covered her mouth and smiled: "No, we are clean when she leaves." After saying that, he hummed a little tune, turned around and walked out.

That night, Lin Jinlou went to the East Chamber for dinner, Qinglan hurriedly ordered to add two more dishes that Lin Jinlou loved to eat, and boiled the soup again, and the East Chamber was busy up and down. Qinglan scalded a pot of wine for Lin Jinlou with a colored glazed petal wine vessel, and she accompanied her with tea, and the atmosphere was also harmonious.

Chunling rushed to serve in front, Xianglan hid, and did needlework while watching the stove in the tea room, suddenly heard a sound at the door, Wu's mother walked in, sat on the small stool next to Xianglan, and fanned the wind with her hand: "This room is like a small steamer, you can really sit still." ”

Xianglan smiled: "It's quiet here, and I'm not afraid of being hot." As he spoke, he picked up the copper kettle on the stove and made a cup of tea for Wu's mother.

Mother Wu smiled so much that the wrinkles on her face widened, and said: "Today's East Chambers are lively, the uncle has been resting with us for a few days, and the one in the main room has ignored it. ”

Xianglan said: "What should I do if the big grandmother is angry?" ”

Mother Wu snorted and said, "Who cares if she's angry." Mrs. checked the accounts and found out a lot of things, she was annoyed that she was angry, and the uncle was too lazy to take care of her, except for the second wife, who was soft-hearted and sent someone to send something from time to time, who would pay attention to her in the whole family. Leaning into Xianglan's ear and whispering, "I heard my aunt and grandmother mention it once in a while, it seems that the uncle has come up with a mourning period...... and off. ”

Xianglan was taken aback and widened her eyes: "Heli? What a joke this is......"

Mother Wu sighed and said: "I said yes, the Zhao family will never give up, although the eldest grandmother's family is only a six-grade, but the Zhao family is a prestigious family, and there are many officials in the court, but I am afraid that it will not look good." It's just that the uncle thinks so in his heart...... Alas, even if we really reconcile, our aunt and grandmother may not be able to straighten it out. He said with a solemn face: "What I just told you, don't say it to others, even if it's Xiaojuan and Chunling." My aunt and grandmother looked at you differently, so I told you this. ”

Xianglan nodded and said, "Mom, don't worry, I will never say it." Before the words fell, Chunling ran in, pulled up Xianglan and said: "Uncle sent me to deliver something to my wife, there is no one in front to serve, you go to the small kitchen and bring the snacks in." ”

Xianglan had no choice but to go to the small kitchen, took four plates of pastries from the cook's hand, carried them on a tray, and entered the bedroom. Entering the house with his head down, he raised his eyes to take a look, only to see Lin Jinlou and Qinglan eating on the big kang in the blue gauze cupboard, on which there was a kang table with luodian vermilion lacquer inlaid with gold, full of wine and delicacies. Lin Jinlou was half-lying inside, with his back against the back of the elastic ink and blue satin pillow, his hair had been loosened, and he had changed into homely clothes, his placket was half open, revealing his strong chest, and he was holding a fine porcelain wine cup of Ruibao Jinying in his hand, with a relaxed attitude. Qinglan sat next to the kang table, took chopsticks and vegetables in her hand and fed them to Lin Jinlou, and when she saw that the wine cup was empty, she insisted on adding wine to the pot.

Xianglan cautiously stepped forward, put the dim sum plate on the table, and removed the two dishes that she didn't eat. When Lin Jinlou saw Xianglan coming in, his heart skipped a beat and he squinted. Since the last time, he and Xianglan said a few words, for some reason, the beautiful and clear face always appeared in his heart, and then he couldn't see the little girl in the east chamber, he came for a few days in a row, and he mentioned the girl to Qinglan intentionally or unintentionally. Unexpectedly, Qing Lan was an eyeless person, so she couldn't figure out his mind, and let go of those words as wind in her ears. He remembered that Xianglan said that she only did needlework in the back, and never stepped forward to hand over tea and water, so he deliberately went around to the tea room to see, but he didn't find her, but he didn't expect to see it today.

Lin Jinlou took a sip of half a glass of wine and said to Xianglan: "You are waiting here, you are not allowed to go elsewhere." ”

Xianglan was very reluctant, so she had to obediently stand a foot away from the Bisha cabinet to listen to the errand, and Lin Jinlou was annoyed, saying that the wine was cold for a while, and that the food was light for a while, so she did this and that. Suddenly, I heard Lin Jinlou summoning: "I have been running around for the past few days, and my legs hurt from running, you, come here, beat my legs." ”

When Qinglan heard this, she was about to pinch Lin Jinlou's feet. Lin Jinlou hurriedly stopped, squeezed Qinglan's hand and said with a smile: "You are a double body, how can I be willing to work you, let a girl pound and pinch it." ”

Xianglan had to take a beauty fist and stand on the edge of the kang to beat Lin Jinlou's legs, but he was still not satisfied, and snorted: "Beat it with your hands, the beauty fist is hard, and the lord is uncomfortable." ”

Lin Jinlou half-closed his eyes, seeing Xianglan obediently clenching his fists and beating his legs, those two hands were like two balls of cotton, like tickling on him, but he felt comfortable, especially when he supported Xianglan to do this and that, so that she was busy around herself, and her heart was refreshed.

After finishing the meal easily, Xianglan shook her sour hand and took the tray to clean up the table, Lin Jinlou pointed to the two plates on the table and said, "These two plates of dim sum, along with a bowl of porridge, will be rewarded for you to eat." You'll come back and freshen up when you're done. ”

Xianglan thanked the reward and went out to take a look, only to see lotus root honey cake, glutinous rice cake, kidney bean roll, pigeon glass cake, cream pineapple jelly and meat floss roll crisp on the plate, and a bowl of japonica rice and bird's nest porridge, all of which were the best food. Usually, even if you eat the leftovers, you have to keep them for the owner to eat for the next meal.

Xianglan said secretly: "These two plates of dim sum were just asked for by me in the kitchen, but I didn't move when I came." I don't know if this uncle is pitiful, and he always likes to appreciate some good things; is still a loser, who doesn't know how to save, and squanders all his gold and silver like this. She didn't think of anything else, so she happily brought the dim sum to the teahouse and left two sweet pieces for Xiaojuan, and the rest was swept away.

Suddenly, a girl at the door said, "Grandma is here!" ”
