On the day of Laba Festival, the weather changed suddenly, and suddenly a biting cold wind blew.

Cheng Ji came over wearing a gray squirrel skin jacket, his face was flushed, and he didn't enter the house when he came, but stood under the porch and looked at the dead branches of the pomegranate tree that were blown crooked by the wind and laughed, and asked Zhou Shaojin who came out to greet her: "Do you say it will snow this year?" ”

Zhou Shaojin's memory is still stuck in the snow in the winter in the capital, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the words.

Cheng Ji sighed: "There was no snow last year. Hopefully it will snow today. Let's build a snowman! ”

How old are you, and you're still thinking about that.

Zhou Shaojin hurriedly beckoned her into the house to sit: "...... It's too cold outside. ”

"It's better to be cold." Cheng Ji smiled, "It's cold to drink porridge." Then he asked her, "What is your porridge made of?" ”

"Lotus seed rice, peanuts, red beans, longan, barley rice......" Zhou Shaojin said as he entered the house with Cheng Ji, "What's wrong?" ”

Two braziers were lit in the house, and the heat hit his face, suffocating Cheng Ji's breath.

She exclaimed, "What are you lighting so many braziers for?" ”

"It's too cold." Zhou Shaojin said, "It's a little hot to cover it in the quilt for a long time." ”

Cheng Ji's eyes widened and said, "You won't use Tang Pozi." ”

"Tang Pozi doesn't have to worry about it." Zhou Shaojin said, "I just feel too cold." ”

Unlike in the capital, where the dragon is hot on the ground, it is hot wherever the hand touches.

Cheng Ji was a little speechless and said, "When will Jiying come over?" When I came out, my sister-in-law happened to go to deliver Laba porridge, saying that it was Jiang rice, rhubarb rice, red fragrant rice, and black rice...... A total of eight kinds of rice boiled, more refreshing than the average Laba porridge, I wanted to taste a bite and come again, but I was afraid that you would wait, and I didn't have time to look at it and hurried over. If I had known that Jiying hadn't come, I should have come later. ”

Zhou Shaojin was angry.

Zhou Chujin took off his apron and walked in, and said with a smile: "I have already stewed the porridge on the stove in the tea room, and I can eat it when Jiying comes over." ”

Zhou Shaojin nodded.

Cheng Ji jumped up and said, "Didn't you say that you boiled laba porridge?" How is it Chu Jin's cousin's cooking? ”

"Do you know how to make laba porridge?" Zhou Shaojin glanced at Cheng Ji and said, "Like lotus seed rice, red beans, barley rice or something, you have to soak it a day in advance...... I got up at six o'clock in the morning and kept stirring the porridge with a spoon for fear that it would stick together. If I had known that, I should have put on an apron to meet you! ”

Cheng Ji smiled, pulled Zhou Shaojin's sleeve, and said in a low voice: "It's a big deal, I'll invite you to eat Qi Fangzhai's horseshoe cake." ”

Zhou Chujin laughed when he heard this.

The house was lively, and Shi Xiang came in and said, "Miss Jiying is here." ”

"Invite her in." Zhou Shaojin said, the door curtain was lifted, and Ji Ying walked in by himself.

She wore a rose-purple makeup armor, a willow yellow Hangzhou silk jacket inside, a black green silk casually curled, a pair of pearl earrings on her ears, and a gift box in her hand, as if she was going to someone's house to pay New Year's greetings.

Zhou Shaojin couldn't help but laugh.

Ji Ying looked at Zhou Shaojin puzzled.

Zhou Shaojin was afraid that Ji Ying would misunderstand that she was laughing at her, so she hurriedly said: "I see that you look like you are going to the neighbor's house." It's not even the Chinese New Year! Even if it's the Chinese New Year, a sister who lives in an alley doesn't have to be so polite, right? ”

Ji Hotaru understood this.

She immediately gritted her teeth and said, "Qin Ziping, you wait, see if I can clean you up when I go back!" ”

Zhou Shaojin said curiously: "What is the matter with this Guan Qin?" ”

"That's what he prepared for me?" Ji Ying pointed to the gift box, "Qi Fangzhai's eight major pieces." I said no, he had to stuff it for me, and said it was your custom here! ”

Everyone laughed.

Zhou Chujin gently told her: "It's not strange to have many people. But today is a small gathering between sisters, so there is no need to be so polite. If you really want something to come over, just pick up your favorite food, look at the beautiful ones and bring them to give them long eyes. ”

Ji Hotaru thanked him repeatedly.

Zhou Chujin saw it clearly now.

Don't look at this episode, Firefly looks cold and moving, but when she looks at Zhou Shaojin, she is a careless person.

She instructed Shi Xiang to bring the porridge, and several people also sat around the round table in the hall.

Shi Xiang came in with porridge, and was saying auspicious words when Cheng Yi came over.

"It smells so good!" He shrugged his nose, "You guys hide here and drink porridge and don't even call me." As he spoke, the gaze that fell on Ji Hotaru changed from amazement to straight up.

Ji Hotaru frowned.

Zhou Shaojin coughed hurriedly and said, "Cousin Yi, what are you looking for me?" ”

"I can't look for you if I'm fine." Cheng Yi's eyes seemed to be nailed to Ji Ying's body, and he said absentmindedly, "You should have boiled more than this porridge, right?" Serve me a bowl to taste, too! I'll see what's different from my mother's boil. ”

Cheng Ji couldn't stand it anymore, so he simply kicked Cheng Yi.

Cheng Yi covered his calves, his eyebrows were horizontal, and he said something to Cheng Ji, but with a glance at the corner of his eye, he swallowed the words that came to his mouth, and then let go of his calves, dusted the corners of his clothes casually, and said: "Good men don't fight with women, I don't know like you." ”

Cheng Ji's face changed.

Zhou Shaojin was very embarrassed.

She has encountered this kind of thing herself, so she naturally knows Ji Hotaru's irritability, but it is her cousin who has played with her since she was a child, and even if she throws him out, he will probably not leave here with a dead face, right?

Zhou Shaojin glanced at Shi Xiang and said in a low voice: "You can say that your grandmother is looking for him and give him a hand." ”

Shi Xiang understood, put the dishes and chopsticks outside for a while, and then walked in, "Second master, Lao An people let people pass!" ”

Cheng Yizheng quietly asked Zhou Shaojin who Jiying was, and when he heard this, he was suspicious: "It can't be such a coincidence, right?" ”

Shi Xiang said aggrievedly: "Why am I lying to you!" Grandma Zhi came to deliver Laba porridge. ”

Usually at this time, Mrs. Guan will always share the porridge with them.

Cheng Yi had no choice but to reluctantly leave.

Ji Ying breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If it weren't for the fact that he is your cousin, I would have slapped him a long time ago." ”

Zhou Shaojin and Cheng Ji both laughed embarrassedly.

Zhou Chujin couldn't help but feel that Ji Ying was very special as her sister said.

Someone pulled the curtain in.

Ji Ying and the others were slightly stunned, but they were incense in the past according to their prestige.

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Holding incense, he said: "Mr. Ma asked people to bring a letter over, and the boat of cotton in Jingzhou Mansion will be able to reach the Dongjiang Bridge in another hour." Ask the eldest lady and the second lady if they will go to Pingqiao Street and wait or if they will go over when they are free. ”

The Zhou sisters stood up in unison.

Zhou Chujin turned around and pressed Zhou Shaojin on the seat, and said, "You go and tell Ma Fushan, I'll go to Pingqiao Street and wait." ”

Zhou Shaojin anxiously shouted "sister" and was about to stand up.

Zhou Chujin pressed Zhou Shaojin down again, and said, "You just stay at home, just help me write to my father when the time comes." ”

Zhou Shaojin knew that he couldn't go.

Don't say that Cheng Ji and Ji Ying are here, even if they are not here, their sisters will definitely attract the attention of others if they return to Pingqiao Street so frequently.

She's going to stay to cover for her sister.

What's more, today is Laba Festival, and she will go to her grandmother to say goodbye later, and the two sisters can't be at home!

"Sister," Zhou Shaojin looked up at Zhou Chujin, her clear and bright eyes were full of concern, "You go early and come back early." Grandma Zhi brought porridge over, and I will help you keep it. ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Zhou Chujin's eyes.

She didn't expect her sister to understand what she meant.

Zhou Chujin couldn't help laughing, and said softly: "I know." Drink porridge, don't wait for me. I'll come back as soon as possible. ”

The three of them got up and sent Zhou Chujin out.

Cheng Ji said: "Is your family still in the cotton business?" Why haven't you heard of it before? Aren't these things supposed to be taken care of by the stewards? Why do you want Cousin Chu Jin to come forward? Why don't I tell my brother and ask him to send a steward to take a look? ”

Ji Hotaru was thoughtful.

Zhou Shaojin knew that Ji Ying was suspicious, and looked at her and replied to Cheng Ji's words: "It's because something happened at home temporarily, my sister can just go over, and I don't need help for the time being." If there is a need, I will definitely open up to you. ”

Cheng Ji nodded and sat down at the round table.

Ji Ying smiled at Zhou Shaojin with relief.

When Zhou Chujin came back, it was already the beginning of the day.

Unlike the joy she received from Ma Ci last time, she looked angry and tired.

Zhou Shaojin firmly supported Zhou Chujin.

"It's really Xinlan who did it!" Her face was pale, but her cheeks were as red as rouge, "Cheng Bai instructed her to do it...... She felt that her mother should marry Cheng Bai so that she could serve Cheng Bai as well...... Cheng Bai let her in after the promise was completed, and she did it...... I'm going to peel her ......."

Zhou Shaojin didn't make a sound.

My heart was as heavy as a wet cloth, but my legs were as soft and powerless as if they were stepping on cotton.

Just because he likes Cheng Bai, he can help Cheng Bai harm others!

She thought of Cheng Lu.

The hatred of her previous life seemed to have burned in her heart through time.

How can anyone be so despicable and shameless? Killed her mother, and came to kill her!

And Lan Ting, since he discovered the conspiracy of Cheng Bai and Xinlan, why didn't he sue his father? She has been pretending not to know, and her mother has scolded her for no reason? Or won't you punish her indiscriminately? She doesn't miss her old feelings at all, and she can actually watch Xinlan get away with peace of mind?

What are their hearts made of?

"Sister," Zhou Shaojin said sharply when he heard his voice, "If you want the government to judge them well, you can't just let them go!" Mother died too unjustly! ”

Zhou Shaojin thought of her mother, who had never been impressed, and couldn't help but tears moistened.

"I know, I know." Zhou Chujin returned to his room, and fell on the bed as if his strength had been drained, "Repay grievances with virtue, how can you repay virtue?" If you kill someone, you just put down the butcher knife, as long as you turn over a new leaf, as long as you cry a few times and say 'it's me who is wrong', you can be forgiven. Who will obey the law? I'll go to my uncle tomorrow, my father is too far away, and the Cheng family has to come forward in this matter. ”

Zhou Shaojin immediately said: "I'll go write a letter." ”
