Zhou Mansion, year twenty-five.

The three of them were puzzled for a long time, they didn't have anything to do with this Aunt Wang, why did they suddenly come to visit today.

Zhou Xiaolan was the eldest of the several people, so he quickly invited people in, after all, the weather was not warm at all.

The mother and daughter were still wearing the same clothes they wore that day, and the two came in, their faces were red from the cold, Zhou Xiaolan saw this and instructed Qingmei: "Don't let me make tea, boil two cups of ginger tea and add some brown sugar." ”

When Aunt Wang heard Zhou Xiaolan so considerate, she immediately smiled at her gratefully, and after saluting each other, Zhou Xiaofu and the two continued to sit on the couch without moving, after all, Aunt Wang was just a concubine, so it was not unruly.

This will be close to Zhou Xiaofu to see clearly, this Aunt Wang is actually extremely feminine, thin willow eyebrows, eyes are not very big, but slender, very white complexion, but she is a little malnourished, and she doesn't look very healthy.

And Zhou Xiaohu, who saw him that day, still sat there calmly, very quiet.

This child always gives Zhou Xiaofu some sense of disobedience, and looks quiet and weak on the surface, just like her mother, but from time to time there will be a hint of tenacity in her eyes.

Suddenly, the room was quiet, Zhou Xiaobin looked up at the two of them, and then at his sister and Zhou Xiaofu, both of them looked indifferent, and they didn't take the initiative to ask what this Aunt Wang was doing, but usually my sister always explained that she didn't talk too much about everything, so she had to take a look first.

Soon, Qingmei and the little maid came in with a tea tray, and put two small cups on the machine where Aunt Wang and Zhou Xiaohu were sitting, and the little maid also brought a plate of dim sum and put it away, and both of them walked out.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaolan said politely: "Aunt Wang." You and the sixth sister should drink some first, they are frozen all the way, drink some ginger tea. Warm up. "I don't ask people what is going on.

Aunt Wang's eyes suddenly welled up with tears for some reason, shining, seeing her daughter frowning and looking at herself, she wiped it with her sleeve, and quickly picked up the ginger tea and drank it.

The two quickly drank the ginger tea and added brown sugar, which was not spicy. After drinking, the whole person warmed up, and the faces of the mother and daughter looked much better.

Only then did she see that Aunt Wang was a little hesitant and wanted to say something, and turned her head to look at her daughter again. After squeezing his hand with determination, he stammered a little: "Second Miss, the concubine wants to ask you for something." ”

After speaking, he looked at Zhou Xiaolan with a smile.

The three of them were puzzled, they were just sisters in the house, what could be worth asking for from this mother and daughter. Besides. The mother and daughter had just returned, and no one knew what they were like, so why did they ask to come to themselves.

Zhou Xiaolan frowned, she was the most impatient and nosy on weekdays, only when she was in front of her, she would ask, and she had to deal with it when she found it, and everything was fine. Today, looking at the mother and daughter, they pitifully explained that Qingmei made ginger tea, why did they think she was easy to talk to.

Zhou Xiaolan did not speak. His expression became cold, and he picked up the teacup and drank it, and did not ask Aunt Wang what she was asking for.

came over for half a cup of tea, but saw that the two of them seemed to not know what they meant, and they were still staring at each other.

Zhou Xiaofu didn't speak, just picked up the book from the couch and read it, after all, the mother and daughter came to beg Zhou Xiaolan, not to find themselves, and they haven't said anything yet, after all, this is also the realm of Zhou Xiaolan's sisters, no matter what she says, she is an outsider, and it is not her turn to interfere.

I saw Zhou Xiaohu's expression was a little melancholy and looked at his mother, he had already said that he would not let his mother come, but his mother said that the second sister seemed to be a good person, could there be a good person in this mansion.

If there were good people, when he and his mother were driven to Zhuangzi by his aunt three years ago, why didn't anyone come out and say a word.

I also know my identity, I am the child of a concubine, but even if I am a concubine, I am also the blood of this Zhou family.

The so-called father, in order to appease his wife, did not even see their mother and daughter, they lived and suffered in Zhuangzi for three years, and everyone in Zhuangzi knew that they were sent here, maybe for the rest of their lives.

At the beginning, they all bullied their mothers, deducting the monthly silver and food sent every month, and that's it. The mother is weak, she doesn't care, it doesn't matter if she eats enough or wears warm, but the head of the village actually wants to get involved with her mother, and she actually went through the window into her mother's room in the middle of the night this autumn.

also forced his mother not to shout, otherwise he would say that his mother seduced him, such a slut Zhou Fu would not want it, and the people on Zhuangzi are simple and old-fashioned, and if such a thing happens, it will definitely be a net pig cage.

She listened angrily in the next room, picked up the wood knife that had been prepared long ago behind the bed, rushed over, and slashed directly at the back of the thief.

Suddenly, the blood of this lewd thief flowed, and she fell directly to the ground in fright, she viciously told this Zhuang head, if she dared to tease her mother again, she would definitely kill his whole family, even if she couldn't kill herself, she wouldn't let them go.

Maybe he was scared of this village head by the appearance of being covered in blood, he was young, only seven years old, so much strength, if it weren't for the fact that this lewd thief and chicken thief had already taken off his single clothes, I am afraid that there would be nothing if the knife went up, let alone bleed.

Later, this village head was more honest, and he wouldn't tease her mother anymore, but he always looked at himself with an evil spirit in his eyes.

She didn't dare to sleep too heavily every night, and she always plugged in the doors and windows of the room before going to bed with her mother, and she always felt that this village head would be malicious again.

Fortunately, at the end of the year, the government sent someone to pick her up and her mother, otherwise she felt that something would happen to her sooner or later, and she would definitely be secretly knocked out and sold by this villager, and her mother would also suffer.

Since she returned to the mansion this time, although she knew that returning to the mansion this time did not mean that the old lady of the mansion really missed her bloodline who was outcast, she must find a way to stay here until she got married from this mansion, and she must not return to that Zhuangzi, she must work hard, because her storage zài in this mansion cannot despise her mother.

So she has to learn some things hard and marry a good man. First of all, learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and let my mother-in-law find a husband for herself, it is simply a fantasy, and even the maid does not match herself and her mother. What's more, I'm looking for a gentleman.

can only find a way to let people teach themselves, and he and his mother don't know each other in this house, so these plans can only be put aside first, and then talk about it when there is a chance.

But the mother said that the master of the second room is a cultured person, and the sister who taught her must be kind-hearted and cultivated, so she has to bring herself here. Thinking that the second sister will guide her when she is free.

But in this big house, you have no foundation, and you have no background, so you casually come to find someone. People will take care of you.

Zhou Xiaohu turned his head and looked at the second sister's mother-in-law with a blank face, and the pain in her heart made it difficult for her to breathe.

Zhou Xiaofu glanced at Zhou Xiaohu, this girl is really not simple, so embarrassing. I just sat like this all the time. It's been two teas.

And Zhou Xiaolan's appearance is obviously to send off guests, the gaze in this girl's eyes is a deep longing, eager to live?

Zhou Xiaofu wondered, did anyone want her to die?

Zhou Xiaofu, who was a little curious, looked up at Zhou Xiaolan and smiled: "Second sister, why don't you ask Aunt Wang what is going on, after all, you can only decide if you can help if you know it." ”

Zhou Xiaolan glanced at Zhou Xiaofu in surprise, this guy is as afraid of trouble as himself, if he doesn't get into trouble every time. I guess I don't bother to care about the affairs of this house, why did I suddenly say that.

Zhou Xiaolan turned his head and glanced at the two mothers and daughters. asked lightly: "I don't know what Aunt Wang has to do, the things in this house are all decided by my grandmother, we are just young ladies in the house, and like the sixth sister, there is nothing we can do." "It's Aunt Wang, go back quickly, the biggest lady in this house is the old lady, don't you beg her, is it useful to ask me for a young lady."

This Aunt Wang was not discouraged when she heard this, but her eyes flashed with light and said happily: "Second Miss, you must be able to help with this matter, the concubine wants to ask you to guide Xiaohu's calligraphy and painting in your spare time, there are not many concubines, in the past few years, she has just taught Xiaohu to read and write, and she doesn't know anything about calligraphy and painting, so she came cheekily, hoping that the second lady can help Xiaohu, she is very studious, and she will be very serious." After speaking, he looked at Zhou Xiaolan expectantly.

The three of them were stunned when they heard this, it turned out that they were begging to help teach Zhou Xiaohu calligraphy and painting, yes, Zhou Xiaohu just came back, and his biological mother was a concubine, and the eldest aunt would not invite a female master specifically for her.

And Zhou Xiaofu and their previous study of calligraphy and painting were all invited by each room to their children to invite calligraphy and painting masters, like Zhou Xiaofu, of course Ye Xinlan will not care, when she was more than six years old, her grandfather sent a master to enlighten her, and later when she was older, she also learned calligraphy and painting with the sisters in the second room of the big house, but she was a calligraphy and painting master invited by the house.

Zhou Xiaohu's deposit is really embarrassing, her biological mother can't, He can't teach her, not to mention Zhou Xiaoxi, she is about to say goodbye, how can she waste time.

The little girl sat there with a calm face, her eyes just sparkling at everyone, and she didn't say a word from beginning to end, this child has self-esteem and endurance.

Zhou Xiaolan, who sighed, glanced at Zhou Xiaofu and said to the mother and daughter: "Aunt Wang, this can only be done after the New Year, after all, they have been busy recently, but I can't teach for a long time here, I can only teach a knowledge point, and then the sixth sister will go back to study by herself, do you think this is okay?" ”

As soon as she heard this, tears welled up in Aunt Wang's eyes, and she was about to kneel down excitedly, originally thinking that the two young ladies would not agree.

Zhou Xiaolan hurriedly stepped forward and pulled a hand, so that Aunt Wang did not kneel.

But seeing Zhou Xiaohu on the side, he got up and gave Zhou Xiaolan a serious salute and said, "Thank you, second sister, my sister will definitely study hard." ”

Zhou Xiaolan glanced at the serious little girl, nodded coldly and said with an expressionless face: "If you don't study hard, I will drive you away directly, you don't have to say so much." ”

Aunt Wang took Zhou Xiaohu away, and thanked her before leaving.

The three of them fell silent here.

Zhou Xiaolan glanced at Zhou Xiaofu and sighed, in fact, he was not a hard-hearted person, if Zhou Xiaofu hadn't opened his mouth to ask, maybe he would have held back, which caused another trouble for himself.

Soon, Qingmei stood aside and stopped talking.

Zhou Xiaolan looked at it and said, "Qingmei, what's wrong." ”

"Miss, if you teach Miss Six to paint, you won't offend the big room." Qingmei asked worriedly.

Zhou Xiaolan got up and stood in front of the table, looked at the words he had written halfway, and said: "If you provoke it, you will provoke it, can't they still eat me, and besides, don't you have a fourth sister." After speaking, he didn't even look at Zhou Xiaofu and continued to paint.

Zhou Xiaofu laughed when she heard this, and said to Qingmei: "Don't worry, the meal is ordered, find a few people to bring the food together, I will let Cuihua make a shrimp spring roll with the fire in the kitchen today, this will be good, you hurry up and bring it, let you young ladies taste it." ”

As soon as Zhou Xiaobin heard that there was something freshly eaten, he immediately looked at Zhou Xiaofu with sparkling eyes, and instantly reminded Zhou Xiaofu of his foodie cousin Ma Haishan. (To be continued......)
