Chapter 30: Avoidance

In the afternoon, Zhou Shaojin went to Hanbi Mountain House to copy scriptures.

Jasper and Jade were busy instructing a few maids to move tables, chairs and dishes.

Zhou Shaojin couldn't help but be a little strange, and said, "Who is coming?" ”

Biyu smiled: "The aunt and grandmother of the third room will come back to save their relatives and come over for dinner in the evening." ”

I just rejected my grandmother so sincerely...... It turns out that it's not that there is no time, it's just that it depends on whether the time can be squeezed out.

Fortunately, Zhou Shaojin has been a human being for two lives, and he has seen the hot and cold state of the world, although he is slightly uncomfortable in his heart, but he is not angry at Cheng Xian.

But such people, no matter how kind they seem, should have less contact!

She secretly thought in her heart, knowing that Mrs. Guo was not in the house, so she took Shi Xiang to the Buddhist hall.

I didn't expect Mrs. Guo to be in the Buddhist hall.

She was sitting beside the bookcase, flipping through the Buddhist scriptures she had copied page by page.

"Old lady!" Zhou Shaojin stepped forward and saluted.

"It's coming!" She smiled and put down the paper in her hand, pointed to the Taishi chair beside her very kindly, and said, "Sit!" I didn't expect you to copy it so quickly! ”

Zhou Shaojin smiled and sat down quietly.

Mrs. Guo nodded with satisfaction and pointed to a few words on the note: "You see, this meal must be taken back decisively, and this one will be collected very well." ”

Zhou Shaojin was obediently taught.

Mrs. Guo let the pearl grind the ink and wrote a few words for Zhou Shaojin to see: "Look, isn't it better to write like this?" ”

The words jumped on the paper like a golden iron horse...... Zhou Shaojin felt that even if he wrote for another thirty years, he would not be able to make such a word.

However, others often say that people are like paper, Mrs. Guo...... The character is not ordinarily strong!

She muttered to herself, nodding her head.

Old Madam Guo shook her head with a wistful smile on her face, and said in a low voice, "You and I have different temperaments...... I am a strong man......" she said, took a deep breath, and suddenly perked up again, "You can just look at it, and you don't have to follow what I write, everyone's preferences are different, you can just write according to your own liking." ”

Zhou Shaojin responded "yes" respectfully.

I don't know why, she suddenly felt that such an old lady Guo seemed to be very lonely.

Zhou Shaojin took the tea in Xiao Tan's hand and presented it to Mrs. Guo.

Mrs. Guo took a sip, and smiled and instructed the pearl who was serving with her: "You go and bring a few taels of the West Lake Longjing that my aunt and grandmother just sent over to make tea for the second lady." ”

Pearl smiled in response, turned around and walked out of the Buddhist hall.

Zhou Shaojin hurriedly got up and excused himself.

Mrs. Guo smiled and said, "Although I rarely have green tea now, your little girl's family can withstand it, just to cool off." ”

Zhou Shaojin had to thank him.

Biyu came in and said with a smile: "Old lady, Madame is here." ”

Mrs. Guo let out an "oh", helped up by the agate, thought about it, and said to Zhou Shaojin: "You can stay here for dinner at night - I will pick up the wind for the eldest aunt and grandmother in the second room, and the two children of the Pan family are also there, you young people, you can talk." ”

But Cheng Xu will also appear, right?

Zhou Shaojin said with a smile: "I have already met at noon, I didn't expect you to leave them for dinner before, and I also promised my grandmother to go back early, saying that it was tomorrow's birthday, and her old man wanted to tell us a few words." ”

Mrs. Guo thinks about it, this is really the case. There was no reluctance, and he smiled and walked out of the Buddhist hall surrounded by the maid and the woman.

Zhou Shaojin breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down and copied a few pages of the scriptures, thinking that since Cheng Xian came over as a guest, maybe Cheng Xu would come over early, so she decided to leave early.

went to say goodbye to Mrs. Guo, but Mrs. Guo didn't keep her, and Biyu kept sending her out of the Hanbi Mountain House.

Zhou Shaojin breathed a sigh of relief, but from a distance, he saw two teenagers slowly walking towards this side.

One of them was dressed in jade, the other was dressed in bamboo blue, one was radiant, and the other was quiet and calm...... It turned out to be Cheng Xu and Pan Hao.

How did these two come together so quickly?

In my previous life, I didn't seem to hear that Cheng Xu and Pan Hao had a good relationship? However, in her previous life, she didn't know anything about Cheng Xu at all, maybe the two of them were very good, but she didn't know it......

Zhou Shaojin looked at the fact that everyone would definitely meet each other head-on if she walked further, she glanced at Shi Xiang, and the two hid behind a thick banyan tree.

Cheng Xu and Pan Hao didn't notice anything unusual, and walked over to this side while talking.

“…… Uncle Yi has a lot of entertainment outside, and Mr. Zhang is in charge of the affairs of the clan studies. He is the fourteenth year of Zhide Xin Mao Ke, and my fourth uncle is the same subject, when he was a showman, he taught in the family science, and his knowledge is solid, you might as well ask him for advice. ”

Pan Hao nodded again and again, and said: "Seeing that the government test is imminent, my father wanted to leave me to study at home, but my mother said that it is better to read thousands of books than to travel thousands of miles. It's a pity that I have to pay homage to the ancestors of the second room tomorrow, otherwise I will definitely benefit from following you to listen to a few classes. ”

"Reading is not something that can be achieved overnight, don't worry...... " Cheng Xu comforted Pan Hao, and the two walked by the banyan tree where Zhou Shaojin was hiding.

Zhou Shaojin breathed a sigh of relief.

The Pan family's ancestral home is Yangzhou, and if Pan Hao wants to get off, he has to go back to Yangzhou for the exam. Fortunately, Nanjing is not far from Yangzhou, and if it is well arranged, it will not delay Pan Hao's imperial examination.

In her memory, this Pan Hao and Cheng Lu were the same year's talents, and Sanfang also hyped it up for this.

If there were no accidents, presumably Pan Hao and Cheng Lu would be squeezed into the show.

She walked briskly away from the woods.

The clothes and accessories to be worn for the birthday have already been prepared, and when she returned to Jiashutang, Mrs. Guan couldn't help but show surprise and said, "Why did you come back so early today?" ”

Zhou Shaojin didn't want to make any extraneous branches, so he said with a smile: "I thought about the birthday celebration tomorrow, so I came back early." ”

Mrs. Guan was not suspicious, and said, "That's fine." I have something to tell you. Then he instructed Liker to call Mrs. Chu and Zhou Chujin to come over, and told everyone: "The female dependents are arranged in Siyi Building, and the male guests are on the side of Jifu Hall. After that, the ancestor will go to the Jifu Hall. When you go back, you will look at the congratulatory gifts you have prepared and clean them up, so that you don't make any mistakes. Peony Terrace and Tonghua Pavilion have arranged singing operas, we are in Peony Terrace, they are in Tonghua Pavilion, you don't go wrong when the time comes, especially to tell the maid and mother-in-law, don't be greedy to play and go to the wrong place, the nobles are small, and the dignity of the Cheng family is big. Do you remember clearly? By the end of the sentence, the tone was very harsh. This is rare for Mrs. Guan.

Zhou Shaojin and others solemnly responded "yes".

Old Mrs. Guan's expression was slightly gloomy, and she said, "Go down!" ”

Zhou Shaojin and the others walked out of the upper room, and Mrs. Chu explained to their sister a few words, "Don't be afraid, as long as you don't follow the elders and don't move around, there will be nothing", and everyone left Jiashutang and dispersed.

Zhou Chujin couldn't help but be a little worried.

Zhou Shaojin didn't mean it.

The arrangement in the past life is the same as in this life. In her previous life, she could obediently listen to the arrangements of her elders, and nothing happened, not to mention that in this life, she had already made up her mind to spend some life in peace and unnoticed?

She freshened up early and went to bed.

I slept well at night, dreamless all night until dawn, and when I got up, I was full of energy and red light.

Shi Xiang couldn't help but say when she was dressing up: "Second Miss's skin is really good, but this rouge gouache has dressed Second Miss vulgarly." ”

She will apply powder when others apply powder, and she will apply noodles when others are plain, never unconventional, independent and special.

Zhou Shaojin said: "On such a big day, how can you not use some rouge gouache?" You just have to help me do what you normally do. ”

Shi Xiang was a pity for a while, and when she saw that Zhou Shaojin had made up her mind, she couldn't persuade her again, so she put on a light makeup for Zhou Shaojin.

Zhou Shaojin looked at it but was very satisfied, and had breakfast with Zhou Chujin and went to Jiashutang.

Mrs. Guan and Mrs. Chu were already dressed up, and were sitting there gossiping and waiting for them. Seeing that one of their sisters was wearing a begonia-colored gown with magnolia tuanhua skirts, and the other was wearing a snow-blue Fangsheng dark pattern gown, standing side by side, one was as elegant as a hibiscus out of the water, and the other was as delicate as a still flower shining on the water, indescribably beautiful and good-looking, the two of them had bright eyes. Mrs. Guan turned her head and smiled at Mrs. Chu: "Look at the two sisters in our house, this is really beautiful!" The rest of the people are not just talking about the situation! ”

Everyone in the room covered their mouths and smiled.

Sister Zhou Shaojin was so ashamed that her face was red.

Mrs. Chu said: "You will say this in the house, but don't shout outside, be careful of others saying that you are biased!" ”

"I don't say, I don't say." Mrs. Guan said hehehe, "I'm not a child, I can't say anything and what I can't say, I haven't counted it in my heart." ”

Everyone laughed again.

Mrs. Guan stood up with Mama Wang's hand and said, "It's not too early, let's go over!" ”

Everyone smiled and said "good", and walked out around Mrs. Guan.

A little maid ran over and said, "Mrs. Bai is here." ”

Mrs. Bai, Cheng Lu's mother, Dong.

Zhou Shaojin was quite surprised.

In their previous lives, they seemed to have gone directly to Siyi Building, where they met Dong and Wu Baozhang and others who came to pay homage to the ancestors of the second room.

How can these be different?

She was secretly watching. Seeing that Mrs. Guan and Mrs. Chu were very surprised, and exchanged glances with each other, Mrs. Chu said, "Please come over - we are going to Siyi Building, and it will be a little late if it is too late." ”

The little maid understood and ran out.

After a while, Dong came over by two maids.

"Lao Anren!" She was a little embarrassed to salute Mrs. Guan and Mrs. Chu, and said, "Our Mrs. Wen will not be able to leave for a while, I am walking slowly, and I am afraid that I will delay the hour, so I will come to your side to have a look." I didn't expect you to be out of the door. That's right, I'll go with you! ”

"Your Mrs. Wen will not be able to leave for a while...... old lady Guan muttered.

Dong's expression was even more embarrassed, and he said in a low voice after a while: "It is said that the Lord Wen has lost the Lantian Jade Maitreya Buddha prepared by the eldest lady for the birthday of the old ancestor......

During this time, the anger in the comment area seems to be a little smaller......

O(∩_∩)o

Believe me, there won't be such a frustrating setting......
