Chapter 11: Diao Nu

Mama Rong smiled meaningfully: "Seventh girl, don't be afraid, there is an old slave here." ”

It's because you're "afraid" of me! Yun Kexin sneered, obediently let Mama Rong pick her up and go back to the main hall of the third room, Yun Tianyang gave a few words, and let her go out with the eldest uncle and the second uncle's family.

The night falls, the moon rises in the sky, the market is already bustling, the traffic is busy, walking in the night market full of lanterns on the Shangyuan Festival, four adults are talking and laughing with their children shuttling through the endless crowd;

The unfinished cold of early spring did not stop people from enjoying the Lantern Festival with enthusiasm and festivity—there were three people in a group to enjoy the lanterns, two people in a group to guess the lantern riddles, and a family holding hands to buy lanterns, and they were happy.

Yun Ke and Yun Yan ignored Mama Rong's disguised obstruction with all excuses, insisted on holding the hand of the seventh sister, and walked on both sides of Yun Kexin like two protective gods, plus the two cousins of the big house also followed behind the three brothers and sisters, happily letting them look at this and that, and also guessing lantern riddles with each other, whoever loses will buy candy for everyone.

The five cousins were intimate, and Mama Rong wanted to pull Yun Kexin out several times and take her with her alone, trying to isolate the family affection, but unfortunately it always backfired, so she had to follow behind a few children like a pug.

"Brother, you lost, my cousin guessed three more correctly than you, you have to buy us candy people," in front of a row of anagram lanterns, Yun Yan clapped her little hands excitedly and shouted, "Buy us candy people, I also want sugar gourds." ”

"I also want sugar people, and sugar gourds," Yun Kexin also shouted in a small voice, "Cousin, Kexin also wants it too." ”

"Okay, I'll buy it for you," Yun Ke smiled, "Let's go together." ”

Yun Ke and his two cousins took their two younger sisters to a small stall of sugar people who were surrounded by three circles inside and three circles outside, five children squeezed in hard, and several masters of the sugar blowers were standing in front of the heated charcoal stove, and the movements were skillful in making sugar people, and there was a column-shaped wheat stack on the side of the charcoal stove with all kinds of sugar people who had finished making zuò, including small flowers, white horses, flying birds, and phoenixes......

Yun Kexin was very greedy.

"Uncle, give me nine sugar people," Yun Ke took out a few copper coins from a sachet pinned to his waist and handed them to the middle-aged man behind the charcoal stove, "It's going to be hot." ”

"Okay," the middle-aged man happily took the copper coin, pulled out a few sugar people from the stack and handed them to Yun Ke, "Take it well, don't stick to others." ”

After Yun Ke took it very politely, he took his cousin and sister out of the candy man stall and walked to a place that was not very lively, Yun Ke took four sugar men and asked his cousin Yun Ji to send them to the adults, and the remaining five were left for themselves.

"Seventh sister, if you call me 'brother' and Yun Yan sister, I'll give you a sugar man." Yun Ke shook the sugar man in his hand and smiled at her.

Yun Kexin just shouted out the word "brother", and caught a glimpse of Mama Rong on the side casting a sharp warning gaze, and she was disgusted-she managed her to death in the third room on weekdays, and she still wanted to stop her when she went out? Think beautifully!

Yun Kexin knew that her brother and sister had always been reluctant to accept the fact that she had been adopted, and she didn't like to hear her call them "cousin" and "cousin".

But there are provisions in the succession law, once the succession ceremony is held, it is already a boat, and it cannot be violated, Yun Ke, as the eldest son of the second room, must not do anything disobedient to the Yun clan, so he has to "get close" to her in private, not to let this family relationship fade, and even try to tactfully tell her the truth about being adopted.

In her previous life, she was too small to see clearly, but in this life, she knows it in her chest.

"Brother, sister," Yun Kexin smiled playfully, stretched out her little hand to grab the candy man in Yun Ke's hand, "I want to eat." ”

Yun Ke didn't tease her anymore, he smiled and stuffed the sugar man into her hand, Yun Kexin took it happily, put it in her small mouth and licked it, and deliberately ate it in front of Mama Rong, her eyes were silly and innocent, as if she was a greedy child, and she didn't understand anything - the angry old woman deserved it! Yun Kexin snorted mischievously in her heart.

At this time, the uncle, the aunt, and the parents led the cousin towards them.

"Sister Xin, these four sugar people are for you," Yue Ziyun smiled quietly and handed the sugar people that were originally distributed to the four adults in front of her, "We don't eat these." ”

Yun Kexin smacked her mouth, and her nose followed by pantothenic acid, but her eyes were red.

"Thank you, second aunt," Yun Kexin smiled, and didn't answer, "Give it to my cousin and cousin, my mother said that eating too much sugar is not good for your teeth." ”

As if making people slap in the face, Yue Ziyun's smile froze, showing embarrassment, stunned, and heartache, Yun Kexin couldn't bear to look at it, and turned her face to the side: Mother, forgive your daughter for her temporary unfilial piety, if you can't endure the current short-term pain, then what awaits us will be a long separation and pain.

The people in the second room collectively looked disappointed and couldn't hide it, and Mama Rong's heart blossomed.

"Seventh girl, it's not early, the third grandmother ordered to go early and come back early, you see-" Mama Rong lowered her head and stopped talking to Yun Kexin, looking embarrassed, but in fact it was for the people in the second room.

"Sister, don't go back to the third uncle and third aunt tonight, can you sleep in the second room for one night," Yun Yan took Yun Kexin's hand and said, "Cousin and cousin have a lot of fun and delicious food, all for you." ”

Yun Kexin felt a pain in her heart: It turned out that there was really this scene, and the people in the second room really kept her.

"Then let's go back first, so as not to wait for my father and mother at home," Yun Kexin was ruthless, but she didn't understand what her sister meant, she looked back at Rong Mama coldly, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, "Mama, Xin'er is a little tired, can you take me back." ”

"Hey, okay, okay," Mama Rong seemed to be impatient as if she was afraid that this errand would make the people in the second room rob, she stretched out her withered vine-like hand to pick up Yun Kexin, patted her on the back and said, "After walking such a long way, it's no wonder that the seventh girl is tired, so I will sleep on the old slave's shoulder for a while, and I will be home soon." ”

"That's okay, it's not early, we should go back too," Yun Tianyou glanced at Yue Ziyun and interjected, "Let's go back together." ”

Yun Tianci and Sun Rulan also said that it was time to go back to "rest", and several people embarked on the road back to the Guogong Mansion.

Yun Kexin's little face was next to Mama Rong's shoulder, her eyes were slightly squinted, as if she was really tired and asleep, and heard her mother say: "Mama, there is still a long way from the bazaar to the Guogong Mansion, you are afraid that you will not be able to bear it if you walk back alone with the seventh girl, or we will take turns to hug Sister Xin-"

Rong Mama frowned: Is this talking about her old age?

On weekdays, I am afraid and taboo that people say that she is "old", and her heart is suddenly unhappy, but she said with a polite smile on her face: "Thank you Second Lady, the old slave is also a person who has taken care of a few young masters and young ladies, it is not in the way, and before going out, the old slave promised the third grandmother to take care of the seventh girl, so I still don't bother Mrs. Hou......"

Yun Kexin, who was "sleeping", slowly hooked her lips and sneered: Mama Rong, I will fulfill your "loyalty" and give you this opportunity to "take good care" of me-

Three-year-old children, no matter how small they are, have a certain weight, it's no problem to hold them for a while, but after a long time, I'm afraid even a man will have to stop and rest, not to mention that Mama Rong is already eight out of forty!

Sure enough, Mama Rong hugged for a while, and gradually couldn't bear it, her head was sweating, her hands were sore, her legs were numb, she was panting, she glanced at the "sleeping" Yun Kexin, she didn't dare to disturb, so she had to grit her teeth and endure it, and walked for a while, she really couldn't hold on, so she had to "ask for help" from the big room and the second room with a thick old face.

Yue Ziyun silently agreed, hugged Yun Kexin in her arms, patted her back gently, and showed a long-lost smile on her face. Her goal has been achieved, so that Mama Rong will suffer a little and satisfy her mother.
