Chapter 286: Overlooking from afar (adding to the ink clouds on a sunny day)
Zhou Shaojin listened to the night watchman's advice and hung his shoulders in frustration.
The Spring Festival Gala smiled and said: "I'll just say it!" It's so late, why did the fourth master come to visit Miss Second Cousin? It must have been after talking to the old lady that she walked around the yard at will, and accidentally stopped at our door. ”
Is it?
Zhou Shaojin's mood instantly fell to a low point, and he felt that he was stupid for wearing clothes.
The Spring Festival Gala breathed a long sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I can finally sleep peacefully." ”
Zhou Shaojin's face was hot, and she thought, fortunately, there was only one lamp in the inner room, if it was brightly lit, she would have to find a crack in the ground to get into.
Despite such happiness in her heart, when she met Cheng Chi the next day, she couldn't help but blush.
Cheng Chi was embarrassed to see her, and he was a little embarrassed when he thought of yesterday's scene, but after all, he was walking outside, and soon returned to normal, and asked her with a smile: "The weather is sunny today, the flowers in the garden should be blooming, you can go to the garden to enjoy the flowers today." ”
Zhou Shaojin smiled and nodded, and when Cheng Chi greeted Mrs. Guo and left, she instigated Mrs. Guo to enjoy the flowers.
Mr. Guo is in a very good mood.
The younger son used to say that he would not get married, and he would not let his descendants follow his own old path. But in the past few years, she whispered in his ear every now and then, this year he changed his mind and said that he would definitely get married, but in order to prevent his descendants from taking over the chores, he would get married later.
If she continued to whisper in his ear, maybe one day he would change his mind and agree to marry first...... Then, at her insistence, maybe she will change her mind and agree to have a baby......
Mrs. Guo felt that her life had seen the dawn, was full of hope, and was changing in a good direction.
She not only wants to live well to see her youngest son's child born, but she also wants to help her younger son take care of her children like she helped her eldest son and second son.
Thinking of this, she was full of energy, waved her hand and said, "Let's go to Siyi Building for lunch today!" Let the cook in the outer courtyard help make lunch. ”
The private dishes of the Cheng family came from the kitchen of the outer courtyard, and the Cheng family made the banquet for the VIPs when they came.
Jasper waited for a burst of cheers.
Pearl even saw Mrs. Guo's liking for Zhou Shaojin, and said jokingly: "We are stained with the light of Miss Second Cousin!" ”
Mrs. Guo didn't deny it, and touched Zhou Shaojin's head with a smile.
The old lady, like Uncle Chi, likes to touch her head and treat her like a child!
Zhou Shaojin smiled suddenly.
Biyu and the others either took Mrs. Guo's pair of cards to order food in the kitchen of the outer courtyard, or opened the warehouse to get utensils, or took out the mats that had just been put into the cage a few days ago and gave them to Mrs. Guo and Zhou Shaojin to sit on, or to order the mother-in-law who was a rough envoy to be on duty in Siyilou...... When Zhou Shaojin and Mrs. Guo came out of the Buddhist hall to recite the scriptures, everyone went to Siyi Building in a majestic manner.
Unlike a few days ago, when he came here to listen to the drama or socialize, Zhou Shaojin was in a happy mood, and he watched the scenery with Guo Laodi's people walking and stopping, and felt that it was beautiful in the eyes.
The group stopped at the gazebo by the lake, and groups of red carp swam over and spat bubbles at them.
Zhou Shaojin was surprised and said, "Can't this group of people recognize people?" ”
She used to raise a few goldfish in the Grange in Daxing, and every time she passed by, several goldfish would swim towards her. Fan said it was because they knew her.
But these fish in the lake are not raised by her, why did they come around?
Mrs. Guo said with a smile: "Most of the people often feed these fish here, so these fish swim over as soon as they see someone coming." ”
As she was talking, the two mothers-in-law were talking and laughing and walked over with a basket.
Zhou Shaojin was greatly impressed and said, "Old lady, you are really amazing." You can even guess it. ”
The old lady smiled: "Pay attention everywhere to learn, and some things can be understood without learning from books." “
Zhou Shaojin thought of his clumsiness in his previous life and thought thoughtfully.
The two mothers-in-law were indeed here to feed the fish.
Seeing Mrs. Guo, the two mothers-in-law stepped forward with trepidation, and served Zhou Shaojin and others diligently to feed the fish.
Zhou Shaojin saw that Mrs. Guo was just sitting next to her and watching, so she quietly retreated, washed her hands, and drank tea with Mrs. Guo.
A mother-in-law ran over panting and said, "Old lady, the old man in the fourth room said that he would come to see you later." ”
Mrs. Guo smiled: "Then invite her to Siyi Building for lunch?" ”
The mother-in-law smiled and went.
Zhou Shaojin smiled embarrassedly: "I haven't seen my grandmother for some days." ”
Old Madam Guo said with a smile: "She probably came to listen to Yuxuan's family banquet two days ago. ”
Zhou Shaojin was puzzled.
Mrs. Guo said with a smile: "I didn't participate, and I didn't even find an excuse, someone must have found your grandmother and asked your grandmother to bring me a message." ”
Zhou Shaojin's tone of Old Madam Guo was quite disapproving, worried that Old Madam Guo and Old Madam Guan would have a gap because of this, and said with a smile: "Grandmother is probably not able to shirk it. ”
Old Madam Guo smiled approvingly.
They went to Siyi Building.
In her previous life, Zhou Shaojin had never gone upstairs at all, although she went upstairs in this life, she had never walked around at will, she found that she was standing in front of the east railing of Siyi Building, and she could see most of the Cheng family's garden, and the wind in early summer blew slowly, with a little coolness, blowing away the heat that came all the way.
She breathed comfortably, and asked Mrs. Guo to sit in front of the railing: "...... It's cool here! ”
Old Madam Guo walked over with a smile and sat down with Pearl serving.
The wind gusted, and for a moment it blew on the skirt of the clothes and hunted, and then it disappeared again.
Mrs. Guo beckoned to Biyu, who was setting the dining table, and said, "You guys also come over to rest, it's still early for lunch." ”
Biyu and the others laughed and ran to the railing, shouting excitedly, "It's so cool."
Xiao Tan pointed to the west and said, "Look, is that our long house?" ”
"Why didn't we see it?"
Biyu and the others chattered and hugged each other.
Zhou Shaojin walked over curiously.
But I only saw a rolling wave of trees, and I couldn't see a pavilion, let alone tell where the Hanbi Mountain House was.
Her heart moved, and she walked towards the railing to the west.
Although it was also hidden by the towering trees, she was too familiar with the four rooms, and after looking carefully for a while, she could tell where was Jiashutang, where was Wanxiangju, where was Hanqiu Pavilion, and even found the road leading to Hanbi Mountain House.
Zhou Shaojin's heart sank slightly, and he walked towards the railing on the east side. As he walked, he also said: "I remember that Cousin Ji lives on the east side of Lane 9, and you won't be able to see the Ruyi Pavilion from here, right?" ”
Mrs. Guo smiled: "Then you look carefully." In the past, it was easy to tell the difference, but in recent years, the tree has grown taller and taller, and in some places it is difficult to see it really. ”
In other words, not only Xiaotan found out, but also people knew that the movement of each room could be seen on the upper floor of Siyi Building.
Zhou Shaojin didn't make a sound, she searched carefully and saw a purple magnolia similar to the one in front of Cheng Ji's house.
She pointed to the purple magnolia and asked Mrs. Guo, "Look, isn't it there?" ”
Mrs. Guo came over and took a look, and said with a smile: "I didn't see you always running to the third room, but I found the place where the girl lived at a glance." That's the Ruyi Pavilion. ”
Zhou Shaojin's heart fluctuated.
If someone were standing here, would they be able to see what was going on in each room?
She was a little distracted.
Old Madam Guo seemed to see her mood, and said with a smile: "Unless you have clairvoyance in your hand and are familiar with the layout of each room, how can you see it clearly if you are so far away." ”
But what if you have clairvoyance in hand?
She only thought of the loophole of the fifth room before, but if the second and third rooms secretly contributed to the garden, wouldn't the fourth Yilou also be a loophole?
Zhou Shaojin decided to talk to Cheng Chi about it after going back.
Seeing that Mrs. Guo's interest was not high, she helped Mrs. Guo to sit down on the Luohan bed in the open hall.
After a while, Mrs. Guan came.
She looked a little tired.
Zhou Shaojin hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Mrs. Guan.
Mrs. Guan didn't let her hold it, but held her hand and walked towards Mrs. Guo with a smile.
Everyone saw the courtesy, sat down with dignity and humility, Onyx took the menu over, and said with a smile: "Lao Anren, this is the dish we just ordered, this is prepared in the kitchen today, what do you think you need to add?" Then he explained, "The slaves and maids came early today, and when they got the letter, they knew that they had already arranged the dishes when you came." ”
Mrs. Guan read the menu at a glance and said with a smile: "It's good, most of them are what I like to eat, so I won't add anything, that's it." "Apparently I don't care much about what I eat.
That's the time to talk about it!
Zhou Shaojin pondered Mrs. Guo's words and listened with his ears on the side.
Who knew that Mrs. Guan talked about Cheng Nuo's marriage first: "Wen's nephew and daughter-in-law went to me last night with a gift box, saying that she had discussed with the Wu family that she had decided on the second day of the fifth month. This matter should have been discussed with you earlier, but a few days ago she was confused, and she didn't know how she could get into trouble with you, and now she doesn't have the face to see you, so she asked me to come and talk to you. I don't dare to invite you over for a drink, I just ask your bride to come in and give Nuo Ge'er a face, and let her and Nuo Ge'er go to Hanbi Mountain to give you a cup of tea. ”
Mrs. Guo raised her eyebrows and said, "She is a junior, and her father-in-law and mother-in-law are gone, so I can still deal with her!" ”
Mrs. Guan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Listening to this tone, Mrs. Guo should have forgiven Mrs. Wenda.
Zhou Shaojin was secretly surprised when he listened.
Mrs. Guo values a person's temperament the most. If you do something wrong and anger her, apologize to her personally, and she will most likely forgive you. But if you don't mention it, she'll always remember. Especially in the case of Mrs. Wenda, she could obviously take advantage of Nuo Ge'er's engagement to thank Mrs. Guo, but she invited her grandmother to come forward...... Why did Mrs. Guo suddenly forgive her?
Sure enough, Mrs. Guo then changed her words and said, "However, she actually made trouble with me, and it is better for you to let her hang out in front of me less in the future." Nuo Ge'er is another generation of people, and I am not old and confused, his new daughter-in-law has me as an elder when she enters the door, and she will give me a cup of tea, and I will not shorten them and let them return empty-handed. ”
Mrs. Guan was a little stunned, and said with a smile: "Your temper, you haven't changed it for so many years, I listened to Yuxuan's family banquet a few days ago, why don't you say that you won't go if you don't go, but the second sister-in-law is so ashamed that she almost can't sit still......"
