Zhou Shaojin naturally didn't know that she and Fan Qi had been targeted by Cheng Chi. During the Lantern Festival, she was going to go out with Cheng Ji to enjoy the lanterns, but the Tang Lao'an people in the second room invited several widowed Lao'an people to dinner, and Zhou Chujin needed to preside over the middle feed of the four rooms, so Zhou Shaojin had to accompany Mrs. Guan to the appointment.

Cheng Ji had no interest in visiting the Lantern Festival alone, so he simply accompanied his grandmother Li Lao'an to the second room.

The banquet in the second room was arranged in the longevity hall where Tang Laoan lived. Zhou Shaojin went for the first time, and when he entered the door, he saw two bronze cranes taller than people, surrounded by green pine bonsai with different shapes, all of which were rooted in knots taller than people.

The maid who came to greet her looked fifteen or sixteen years old, with a snow-white melon seed face and a bean paste mole the size of a grain of rice at the corner of her mouth. Seeing Zhou Shaojin take a few more glances at those bonsai, he said proudly: "It's the first time that Miss Second Cousin has seen so many person-tall bonsai placed together, right?" These are all raised by our family. ”

On the eighth day of April last year, the Buddha Bathing Festival, Tang Lao'an was serving by his side, as if he was called "Yu'er", and he looked quite decent in front of Tang Lao'an.

Zhou Shaojin saw her squinting at people, unhappy, and said with a faint smile: "It's indeed the first time I've seen so many person-tall bonsai placed together. Why don't you put it in the flower room? This bonsai was supposed to be an ornament, so it was all stacked together, and I thought there was nowhere to put it. I was thinking that there was only my cousin's family in the second room, and it also occupied the Chunze Courtyard and Tonghua Building in the outer courtyard, and in addition to my cousin and cousin, we also lived in the four rooms, and we two sisters also lived, and I didn't feel that it was crowded ......."

The meaning of this is that there are no rules in the second room, and I don't even know how to place the bonsai.

Yu Er was ashamed and angry, and her face suddenly turned red.

It turned out that there were only a few pots here, but the people who came praised this bonsai for being well-maintained, atmospheric, Tang Laoan was very happy, she made her own opinion, and slowly moved a few pots of bonsai in the flower room, and the people who came would look at it a few more times like Zhou Shaojin, and Tang Laoan didn't say anything, she had always been very proud, but she didn't expect to be so despised by Zhou Shaojin.

"Thank you, Miss Second Cousin, for teaching her." As soon as Zhou Shaojin's words fell, a tall maid walked out with the curtain and said with a smile, "I said her a few times, but she turned a deaf ear, and now I met a master of construction, I know it's amazing, right?" ”

The last sentence was said to Yu Er.

This maid Zhou Shaojin has also met a few times.

She is the number one big girl Qing'er next to Donald Laoan.

When Yu'er heard Qing'er say this, she glanced at Zhou Shaojin.

Zhou Shaojin looked frightened.

A hint of resentment flashed in Yu'er's eyes.

Zhou Shaojin dislikes the second room more and more.

However, anyway, in the end, the second room and the long room are going to turn their faces, she is now helping Mrs. Guo copy the scriptures in the Hanbi Mountain house, even if she doesn't want to get involved in it, in the eyes of others, she is also labeled as the long room, in this case, even if she asks for mercy, she is afraid that the second room will not let her go, and she will make the long room lose face because of her lack of position.

Anyway, she is just a granddaughter in the fourth room, her surname is Zhou and not Cheng, it's a big deal to leave, why bother to even look at the corners of these little maids' eyes, her father treats her like a treasure, but he doesn't let these people abuse her.

"You can't talk about the masters of construction." Zhou Shaojin smiled gently, but his tone was not polite at all, "I just like to fiddle with some flowers and plants, and when I look at what makes me awkward, I can't help but take a few more looks." It made the two girls laugh. ”

Qing'er was a little surprised.

She had long heard that the second cousin of the Zhou family in the fourth room had a cowardly temperament, but she didn't expect that the rumors were wrong, so she miscalculated.

"Thank you Miss Second Watch for your advice!" She immediately changed her attitude, stepped forward to salute Mrs. Guan respectfully, and said with a smile, "Our old man is waiting for you in the house!" Later, I will receive Yu'er again, and I will compensate Miss Erbiao. ”

Mrs. Guan smiled when she heard this: "The little maids are not sensible and chew their tongues, you just go back to discipline and discipline, don't you compensate Shaojin, it will be in front of you Lao Anren, I am afraid that her life will not be enough." You sisters, you also have to take care of her. ”

This is the real ginger is the old spicy!

Zhou Shaojin was greatly impressed.

Qing'er didn't expect Mrs. Guan to say such a thing, and she was shocked and hurriedly smiled: "It's still Lao Anren who treats people kindly, Yu'er, don't thank Lao Anren and Miss Second Cousin." ”

Yu Er is also a character, and immediately stepped forward with tears in her eyes to apologize to Zhou Shaojin and Mrs. Guan.

Mrs. Guan smiled kindly, and was helped into the house by Zhou Shaojin.

But as soon as she entered the house, Mrs. Guan's smile faded.

Zhou Shaojin chuckled in her heart, Qing'er had already said loudly, "The old man from the fourth room is here", Zhou Shaojin had to hide his thoughts in his heart.

Although Donald Anren was full of smiles, her shrewd and exposed eyes still made her look a little aggressive.

When she saw Zhou Shaojin holding Mrs. Guan, she smiled and quipped: "It's still hello, I have a granddaughter, and I have someone to accompany you wherever I go, unlike me, I can't find anyone to play cards." ”

Zhou Shaojin didn't say anything.

Mrs. Guan smiled and patted Zhou Shaojin's hand, and said, "My granddaughter is indeed very well-behaved, but grandma is not bad." ”

"That's, that's." Donald Anren smiled, "Don't say anything else, as soon as I see those two great-grandsons, my heart will melt." Not to mention the ancestors, I can't wait to ask the nurse to take a look at his old man every day. The two of them said as they walked inside, "I heard that your family's Brother Hu and Brother Yi have stayed in Pukou?" Our family's ethnography is also one of the best in the whole Jinling. ”

The implication is that the four houses are near and far away.

"Brother He'er just followed his mother to visit relatives." As she spoke, Mrs. Guan sat down under the service of the little maid, and said, "You also know that our brother is not as obedient as his brother, so he left him there. Reading is small, mainly to restrain his temperament. ”

Tang Laoan nodded: "When the child grows up, he can't always be locked up at home like a bird, but he has to go out for a walk more." Our family knows my brother, so I told my ancestors that we have to let them go out and walk around. ”

Do you want to go to the capital? That's why I borrowed the Lantern Festival to invite a few Lao An people to dinner?

Zhou Shaojin pondered in her heart, Mrs. Guo came over.

She looked arrogant, with two maids, jasper and jade, and as soon as she appeared, she gave people a feeling of being full of brilliance.

Zhou Shaojin couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Mrs. Guo is so dazzling at any time!

She stepped forward to salute Mrs. Guo.

Mrs. Guo took her with a smile, looked her up and down with a smile, and said to Mrs. Guan: "Is it because I haven't seen Shaojin for a few days or is she a year older after the New Year?" I look at how she looks like she's grown taller again! ”

Are you sure?

Zhou Shaojin has always regretted that she was shorter than her sister in her previous life.

She looked down at her shirt.

It doesn't seem to be short!

Zhou Shaojin was a little discouraged, and heard Mrs. Guan smile and said, "She is dangling in front of my eyes every day, I don't think so." You haven't seen her in a few days, so you should be better than I am. ”

Old Madam Guo smiled and bowed her head.

Li Laoan came over with Cheng Ji.

Everyone saw the ceremony, and almost all the old ladies sat there chatting.

Zhou Shaojin is okay, Cheng Ji can't sit still like a monkey's ass. Li Laoan was afraid that she would be wronged, so he supported her and Zhou Shaojin to go out for a walk: "...... Let's say a few words in peace. ”

Cheng Ji unceremoniously pulled Zhou Shaojin out of the hall.

Yu Er and a few maids are moving those green pine bonsai.

Seeing Zhou Shaojin come out, she turned her head as if she didn't see it.

Cheng Ji didn't find anything abnormal, and pulled Zhou Shaojin to comment on the bonsai: "...... It's not good-looking to be top-heavy. That pot is even uglier, and I don't know that putting a small stone there on the raised roots will give me more flavor of 'leisurely seeing Nanshan'. And that pot, since the Taihu Lake stone is placed, why not plant a few grasses? ”

Zhou Shaojin felt that he pointed out that they were all cheaper second rooms, and said with a smile: "When did you become interested in this?" After the beginning of spring, the flowers on my side are going to be repotted, do you want to go to my place to have a look? ”

"Okay!" Cheng Ji and Zhou Shaojin both like flowers and plants, Cheng Ji likes to tell others how to get it, and Zhou Shaojin likes to do it himself.

The two were discussing flowers and plants, and Mrs. Yi's wife Hong came over.

After she said a few words to Zhou Shaojin and Cheng Ji gently, she went into the house to serve a few Lao An people.

Cheng Ji smiled: "I don't know if my sister-in-law will come?" I want to see the two nephews she gave birth to, they are all beautiful. ”

Zhou Shaojin didn't squeak, thinking that if she was from Tang Lao'an and wanted to ask Changfang to help introduce Cheng Shi to the scholars in the capital, she would not let Grandma Zhi come here with two children to stimulate Mrs. Guo.

Sure enough, until the result of the banquet, Grandma Zhi did not come out. On the contrary, it was Mrs. Guan, who turned her head and smiled in the direction of the second room when she went back.

Zhou Shaojin thought for a while and said, "Does Donald want Cousin Zhi to go to Guozijian to study?" ”

Old Lady Guan was silent for a moment and said, "How do you know?" ”

"I guess." Zhou Shaojin said with a smile, "Although the cousin of the ancestor of the second room can also go to Guozijian to study. Uncle Kezhi went to Guozi to study not only to gain fame, but also to make friends who could help him, and Uncle Changfangjing's recommendation was very important. When I saw Tang Lao'an talking about his cousin's words just now, you didn't make a sound, so I guessed if Tang Lao'an wanted to take the opportunity to tell Mrs. Guo about this matter by taking advantage of the Lantern Festival banquet. ”

Mrs. Guan was surprised, and said after a while: "Shaojin, I always thought you were ignorant, but I didn't expect you to be able to do this, even better than your sister!" When your sister was your age, she only knew who was good to me and who was not good to me. What am I going to do when I'm good, and what am I going to do when I'm bad......

Zhou Shaojin was embarrassed.

That's because she has lived two lives and has more experience than others!

"Then, did Mrs. Guo agree?" She asked hurriedly.
