At the beginning of March, the weather gradually warmed up, but Kyoto was located directly north of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, and the climate at this time was still warm and cold.

It is still cool in the morning and evening, but the sun is shining brightly at noon, and several spring-blooming flowers in the greenhouse have quietly bloomed.

Zhou Xiaofu had already asked Qingbi to pass the news to Sun Wang over there, planning to arrange a private room in the restaurant, and let Zhou Xiaolan help cover after dinner, and go out to meet him in disguise as a man, but he didn't plan to be the protagonist.

It's not just Zhou Xiaolan who is thinking about his birthday, but also Mother Lan, who has already brought Xin'er back, and she will return home on the 14th to celebrate Zhou Xiaofu's birthday.

Zhou Xiaofu was a little afraid, Mother Lan was calculated by Ye Xinlan last time, she was actually quite scared in her heart, if she hadn't noticed that something was wrong, Mother Lan would have been afraid that she would no longer be alive.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Xiaofu felt that the big mansion of Zhoufu was really not suitable for Mother Lan's stay, first, she couldn't protect herself if she didn't have the effort, and secondly, she was easy to be used by people with intentions because of her own reasons, so she accidentally fell into the road.

Ye Xinlan is here for a day, this place is not suitable for Lan's mother to stay, after thinking about it, plus the news from Jindu also came back, about Lan's guard, Zhou Xiaofu felt that only letting Lan's mother marry Lan's guard was the best way, first, she could help her look at Zhuangzi, but Lan's mother was thirty-five years old, her prime was just right, she got married, and she also had the wish in her heart, and Lan's mother had a good home that she and her brother both wanted to see.

The news came back from Jindu, and he checked the Lan guard, and it was consistent with what he said. Lan Guard has indeed been looking for Lan's mother for many years, since God has let them meet, why don't they be adults. After coming back after the Chinese New Year, I also knocked on the side, and Lan's mother was not disgusted with marrying Lan Guard, but she felt that she was not worthy of Lan Guard.

No matter how you say that she is a divorced woman and has given birth to children, although Lan Huwei is as old as herself, she has always been single and has never been married.

Zhou Xiaofu plans to wait for fourteen. After Lan's mother came back, she talked about it.

Come to Cuihua again, she is already seventeen years old this year, and the women of this dynasty have begun to marry at fifteen or sixteen. Seventeen or eighteen are not easy to marry, Cuihua has been with her since she was reborn, and she is loyal to herself.

Cuihua is not a child, she is a little girl who picked up on the side of the road when the original owner's mother was alive. He was only four years old. With a high fever, the original owner's mother was a kind-hearted person, so she picked it up and was cured.

Cuihua has been by her side all these years, even if the original owner is stupid and fat, no one wants to see her, Cuihua is also stupidly accompanied.

But Cuihua has no kung fu, and Zhou Xiaofu feels that what she has to do in the future will slowly become more and more dangerous, so she thinks about simply arranging all the thoughts around her who don't know kung fu. The first of them are Mother Lan and Cuihua.

While Zhou Xiaofu was thinking on the side, Ziling came in.

Zhou Xiaofu put down the pen she was scribbling in her hand. Turning his head to look over, he saw Ziling quickly saluting and said, "Miss, the old lady has a guest over there, let all the ladies come over." ”

Zhou Xiaofu looked at Ziling with wide eyes and confusion.

Ziling quickly understood the meaning of Zhou Xiaofu's action, and quickly said: "The maid who sent the message said that the old lady's handkerchief was handed over to the old lady, and the old lady came with her three granddaughters, so she wanted to let the sisters go over to accompany her." ”

Zhou Xiaofu pondered for a moment, Mrs. Gu is the one, there is no such person in the memory of the original owner.

Although I didn't know who this person was, I still got up and Ziling helped me find a blue and white cotton dress to put on, Ziling felt that the color was too little, and found a water-green silk to put on, and quickly combed a simple round bun and embellished some small pearls before giving up.

Zhou Xiaofu looked in the mirror, took off the small diamond stud earrings on her ears, replaced them with pearl studs of the same series on her head, looked at it, thought about it, and felt that it was almost like this, so she went out of the yard with Ziling.

But before leaving, he asked Ziling to bring the purse they usually make, but this purse is not made by himself, just the picture drawn by himself, by Cuihua Ziling they show it, so as to imitate the principle of cross-stitch in the previous life, the purse is not a small doll, it is a small animal, the appearance is cute and simple, Zhou Xiaofu drew a lot of the same kind of look, Cuihua and Ziling looked like it and did a lot, saying that it was for Zhou Xiaofu to go out on weekdays to give away.

I brought it with me last time I went to Jindu, but it was robbed, and now I think that since the granddaughter of the old lady Gu is here, I must also need to give some gifts.

As soon as I walked to the old lady's yard, I saw Zhou Xiaohu coming with a little maid, Zhou Xiaofu looked over, it was a little maid who looked only eight or nine years old, what can this maid do?

Zhou Xiaohu saw that Zhou Xiaofu stopped and hurriedly walked forward to follow, just now a maid went over and left directly after passing the word, he was already a little stage frightened, no one brought him over, he was a little afraid, looking at Zhou Xiaofu in front, he suddenly found the backbone.

Zhou Xiaofu also understood what Zhou Xiaohu meant at a glance, so she stopped and looked east and west, and waited for the little girl.

Soon, Zhou Xiaohu rushed to Zhou Xiaofu and immediately saluted: "Hello fourth sister." "I was still a little out of breath when I said this.

Zhou Xiaofu smiled and looked at the little girl who was much shorter than herself, turned her head and looked at the nervous little maid on the side, frowned and said softly: "This is your maid?" ”

Zhou Xiaohu relieved his breath and said a little shyly: "Yes, fourth sister, this is the maid sent by my mother a few days ago." ”

Zhou Xiaofu turned her head and looked at the little girl again, from a closer distance, she looked even smaller, probably eight or nine years old, and she was still dark.

Even if this little maid was afraid, she still remembered the rules she learned from her son before entering the mansion, and hurriedly saluted Zhou Xiaofu and said, "Fourth Miss, the slave maid Chunlian has given you a greeting." ”

Zhou Xiaofu frowned and nodded to Zhou Xiaohu and said, "Let your maid go back first, and I'll pick you up later, there are many people today." "This means self-evident, Zhou Xiaofu means that your maid looks smaller than the master. I haven't learned all the rules, so what to do if something goes wrong.

Zhou Xiaohu also understood what Zhou Xiaofu meant, but he said to Chunlian with a red face: "You go back first." Come and pick me up in an hour. ”

Although this Chunlian's maid looked young, she was still well-behaved and sensible, and she quickly bowed and left.

The two entered the old lady's courtyard together, and the little maid at the door quickly went in and reported.

As soon as the two of them walked to the door of the hall, they heard a laugh inside, this was laughter that they had never heard before, I am afraid it was the old lady Gu.

In addition to Ye Xinlan's mother and daughter in the room, the wives and sisters of the other two rooms also arrived. As soon as he saw Zhou Xiaofu enter, Zhou Xiaobin blinked mischievously on the side.

Zhou Xiaolan stood behind his mother with a calm face.

Zhou Xiaofu noticed that although Zhou Xiaoxi was in front of the old lady with a smile on her face, she raised her eyes to look at Zhou Xiaohu beside her.

Zhou Xiaofu curled the corners of her mouth, these two mothers and daughters wanted to see the maid next to this little girl. Why did you arrange this maid for the concubine as the housemother and still want to bring it out? Aren't you afraid that people will say that they will treat concubines harshly?

He Shi, who was sitting in front, saw his daughter turn her head, and she couldn't help but turn her head to look at her daughter, and when she saw that there was no one around, she couldn't help frowning. But he quickly smiled and said to a fat old lady on the side: "Old lady Gu." This is the eldest daughter of the third brother's family, Sister Fu'er, come and greet the old lady. ”

Zhou Xiaofu stretched out her hand and gently pulled Zhou Xiaohu, who was stunned next to her, stepped forward together, bowed in a regular manner, and stepped aside to stand.

When I stood closer, I found that this old lady Gu was chubby, with a ruddy and healthy complexion, and double eyelids, but because she was too fat, her eyes were small, especially when she was looking at Zhou Xiaofu with a smile on her face, her eyes were almost gone. Only a gap remains.

Soon, Mrs. Gu enthusiastically asked the grandmother on the side to take a small purse and handed it to Zhou Xiaofu and Zhou Xiaohu on the side.

When both of them got the purse thank-you gifts, the old lady Gu suddenly asked in surprise as if she had discovered a new world, "Who is this sister?" Why didn't you listen to the introduction just now? ”

He Shi's face was a little embarrassed. I don't know how to answer, after all, the young lady who came out of the concubine is simply a shame for her, the first sister of the Zhou Mansion now, but this cheap breed is still the blood of the master, even if the lord doesn't care anymore, he can only be raised in the yard, so he deliberately didn't mention it just now, but he didn't expect this old lady Gu to ask.

Zhou Xiaoxi glanced at her embarrassed mother and immediately stepped forward and saluted: "Old Madam Gu, this is the girl's sixth sister, Xiaohu, the sister born to Aunt Wang." ”

Old Madam Gu smiled a little embarrassedly as if she had broken someone's privacy, but said in her mouth: "This little girl is really good-looking, she looks soft and weak, presumably this Aunt Wang is also a beauty." "Does this old lady Gu have a grudge against the He family? Running to mend the knife?

As soon as the words arrived, I saw Ye Xinlan leading Zhou Xiaobian to appear.

After another salute introduction, Mrs. Gu just smiled faintly and asked the grandmother on the side to reward Zhou Xiaobian with a purse and introduced the three young ladies sitting behind her.

These three young ladies have their own characteristics, the older one is called Gu Changxi, who is sixteen years old this year and has thick eyebrows and big eyes, but she looks a little coquettish, but she is not as heroic as Zhou Xiaofu.

Gu Changrou, who was sitting in the middle, was thirteen years old. As the name suggests, he is soft and weak, wearing a goose-yellow Confucian skirt, a cyan haircut, a pair of long and slippery eyes, always half-squinted, as if he is about to faint, not delicate.

The smallest Gu often ...... Eleven years old, chubby, with big eyes, dark eyes blinking smartly.

After the introduction, everyone got to know each other, and Zhou Xiaoxi took the lead in bringing her own hand-embroidered handkerchief to these young ladies, followed by Zhou Xiaolan with the fan she made, and Zhou Xiaobin smiled and asked Qinglian to serve the dim sum she had just made.

Zhou Xiaofu asked Ziling to take out the three purses she had brought.

As soon as it was delivered, I listened to the youngest fat girl Gu Chang whispered in surprise: "Sister, is this Jian Shang's purse embroidery?" (To be continued......)

ps: My sister's child is still there, and I slept with the code word...... It's late, sorry. R1292
