Zhou Shaojin waited for her sister to come back and had dinner together, and then followed her sister to the warehouse to choose clothes for summer clothes.

Mrs. Guan's personal grandmother Wang suddenly came over, saying that there would be a guest at home tomorrow morning, and Mrs. Guan asked the two sisters to go over together to entertain guests.

Zhou Chujin was very surprised, took out the pineapple cake that the old lady Guan had rewarded two days ago, and left Mama Wang to drink tea.

Mama Wang didn't dare to stay for a long time, and said bluntly: "The old lady is still waiting for me to answer!" The eldest lady just tells her if she has anything, and the old slave will not shirk if she can do it. ”

Zhou Chujin wrapped a few pastries for Mama Wang to take back to her children to eat, and then said, "It's not a big deal." It's just that my grandmother's orders are urgent, and I don't know what to wear tomorrow to meet guests. ”

It turned out to be an inquiry about this.

Mama Wang was relieved when she heard this, and said with a smile: "It's the wife of the Yin family in Shuntian Mansion." In the afternoon, I sent someone to send a prayer post, saying that I wanted to discuss the birthday gift of the old ancestor in the second room with the old lady. ”

Zhou Chujin put his mind at ease, personally sent Mama Wang out, turned around and instructed the maids to open the cage and pick out clothes and jewelry for herself and Zhou Shaojin.

Zhou Shaojin was a little absent-minded.

She listened to Wu Baozhang's words, and she didn't have a good impression of Mrs. Wu, every time Mrs. Wu came to visit Mrs. Guan, she pushed and hid when she could, and she didn't see Mrs. Wu a few times. But in her impression, Mrs. Wu is of medium height, with a round figure, and her appearance looks very ordinary, but her eyes are very sharp, and she seems to see your bones when she looks at people, which makes her a little scared.

I don't know if this Mrs. Wu is the Mrs. Wu she will see tomorrow.

Zhou Shaojin didn't fall asleep until almost dawn, and was soon woken up again, and it took a while to cheer up.

Zhou Chujin was reluctant to talk about her sister, and talked about Shi Xiang and the Spring Festival Gala who served her.

Zhou Shaojin smiled stupidly, her heart was warm, and she felt a lot more vivid when she looked at the surrounding scenery.

When they arrived at Mrs. Guan's place, they found out that Mrs. Chu had arrived early, and they also met Cheng He and Cheng Yi, who came to greet Mrs. Guan with Mrs. Guan.

Seventeen-year-old Cheng He looks like Mrs. Guan, tall, fair skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes, high nose bridge, handsome and gentle. Fifteen-year-old Cheng Yi looks like his grandfather and father, he is not tall, his eyebrows and eyes are slender, and he doesn't look like his brother at all. Or the reason for the second son, he has a lively temperament and a very bright smile, and there is no one in the family who doesn't like him.

When he saw Zhou Shaojin, he said, "Are you better?" I'm going to go to the garden later, do you want to go with me? ”

Mrs. Guan scolded him: "Your sister is just right, and she can't see the wind." What do you do with you? You're going to go by yourself, don't go crazy with your sister! Then he asked him, "Have you done all the homework assigned by the gentleman?" Be careful that your father teaches you, and I will not be able to protect you when the time comes. ”

Cheng Yi scratched his ears and cheeks.

Everyone laughed.

Cheng He smiled warmly and comforted Mrs. Guan: "Don't worry, I will check my brother's homework, if he doesn't finish it, I will urge him to finish it." ”

The old lady smiled with satisfaction, and the eldest lady looked at the steady eldest son, and she was also smiling.

Cheng He saw that it was not too early, and he was going to go to the clan school class, so he took Cheng Yi to leave. Before leaving, he said to Zhou Shaojin: "My sister is resting, if you want to eat, let the Spring Festival Gala tell Wu'er, and I will bring it to you." ”

Wu'er is the little guy next to Cheng He, who is only eight years old this year.

Zhou Shaojin smiled and thanked her, and after Mrs. Chu was invited away by the housekeeper's mother-in-law, she and Zhou Chujin accompanied Mrs. Guan to the small Buddha hall to worship the Buddha.

Skillful and elegant movements, pious and smooth singing, Zhou Shaojin made Mrs. Guan full of praise: "In the past, you were only young and couldn't sit still, but I didn't expect you to be a child with Buddha nature." The old man gave her a string of small-leaved rosewood beads and asked her, "Would you like to come with me every morning to incense the Bodhisattva?" ”

This was originally part of Zhou Shaojin's life, how could she not want to?

Zhou Shaojin readily agreed.

Zhou Chujin wanted to speak and stopped.

She felt that Zhou Shaojin was already quiet, if she accompanied her grandmother to worship the Buddha, wouldn't she become more taciturn? But Zhou Shaojin had already agreed, and in front of her grandmother, she couldn't stop it.

Zhou Chujin reminded Zhou Shaojin while the old lady Guan was changing clothes: "Worshipping the Buddha is a very time-consuming and energy-consuming thing, how can you be free?" I think it's better for me to thank your grandmother for helping you in two days, and you should learn embroidery with your cousin. ”

Zhou Shaojin understood her sister's worries, she smiled and comforted her sister, "I like to read Buddhist books and recite scriptures, I don't think it's difficult." Sister, don't worry! If I feel hard, I will definitely tell you, and I won't hold on. "As for embroidering with Cheng Ji...... Then it's better to accompany your grandmother to worship the Buddha!

Zhou Chujin didn't give up, because in the old lady's house, it was not the place to speak, so she had to say "um" softly, and didn't say more, thinking about it when Zhou Shaojin suffered, it was not too late for her to say more.

The two sisters had their own moods and accompanied Mrs. Guan to talk, and Mrs. Wu came.

Zhou Shaojin and Zhou Chujin helped their grandmother to meet the guests. As soon as he entered the flower hall, Zhou Shaojin's eyes fell on the little girl wearing a red folded branch flower silk gown beside the lady in the hall, and she couldn't move away.

Wu Baozhang!

She is Wu Baozhang!

Even if she turns to ashes, she won't admit the mistake of Wu Baozhang!

Zhou Shaojin's eyes seemed to be spewing fire, and tears were about to burn out, so that everyone in the room noticed her abnormality.

"Sister," Zhou Chujin hurriedly pulled Zhou Shaojin's sleeve and quietly reminded her, "This is the eldest lady of Lord Wu's family, don't hurry up and see the courtesy." ”

Zhou Shaojin's mind was blank, and he bowed with his sister's knees, staring at Wu Baozhang with a pale face, and the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed.

Zhou Chujin frowned anxiously, and cleverly explained to Mrs. Guan and the visitor: "My sister had a cold a few days ago, and she only went out of the room yesterday. ”

Mrs. Wu is here as a guest, so naturally she won't say anything. Mrs. Guan looked at the wide open windows around her, felt that this flower hall was a little shady, and instructed Mama Wang: "Close the row of windows on the east side." Then he invited Mrs. Wu, "Let's go to the west and sit, just in time to enjoy the peonies." ”

"I have long heard that the Cheng family's garden is like spring, and now it can be regarded as a blessing to see it." Mrs. Wu smiled and complimented Mrs. Guan, and everyone sat down together in front of the fan on the west side.

Zhou Chujin squeezed Zhou Shaojin's hand and reminded her not to lose her temper.

Zhou Shaojin pinched himself happily, and his mood slowly calmed down.

Mrs. Guan had already talked to Mrs. Wu for a while: "...... According to the old practice of the Cheng family, birthday gifts were given in the name of each house, and then each person gave it to each person. It doesn't matter what it is, just express your heart. ”

"I'm glad I asked you." Mrs. Wu looked happy, "You are no one else, and I won't hide it from you." Our lord came from a humble background, and he used to be an official in Texas, and he hadn't seen much of the world, so he was afraid of being rude......"

Zhou Shaojin was in the mood to listen to Mrs. Wu, she looked at Wu Baozhang.

On the slightly rounded goose egg face, a pair of big eyes are bright and alert, and the soybean-sized mole on her forehead is red and gorgeous, which makes her face immediately vivid.

Seeing someone watching, the little girl opposite pursed her lips and smiled. The pear on the left cheek is very pretty.

Zhou Shaojin only felt the pain in his heart.

It was the appearance of this person that turned her life upside down, and there was no peace.

Do you still want to be as false and wronged with her as you remember in your memory?

Zhou Shaojin was unwilling, twisting his fingers, but he felt a cold gaze looking at him.

She looked back sensitively and saw Wu Baozhang's two half-sisters, Wu Baohua and Wu Baozhi.

Looking at her was Wu Baohua.

She looks like Mrs. Wu, her appearance is ordinary, but she is very arrogant, the only thing that is desirable is the delicate skin that bullies the frost and snow, which makes people feel that she is from a good background at a glance. And her sister Wu Baozhi is like a mold printed with her, but there is no arrogance in her expression.

Seeing Zhou Shaojin looking over, Wu Baohua not only did not avoid or be ashamed, but raised his head, revealing a little unkindness in his eyes, which made Zhou Shaojin both surprised and puzzled.

Fortunately, Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Guan quickly finished speaking, and the two decided to go to the garden to see the peony flowers.

The Cheng family lived in a group of five rooms and occupied the entire Jiuru Lane. The garden is shared, not only covers a wide area, but also after hundreds of years of operation by the Cheng family, the flowers and forests are numerous, the elegance and the vulgar coexist, and the four brocades are undefeated. She didn't think it was big when she was a child, but after going to Kyoto, she felt the depth of the Cheng family and the family's wealth.

Zhou Shaojin silently followed her sister's side.

Wu Baozhang deliberately took a few steps behind, and asked her softly with concern: "Sister, are you better?" ”

Just like in her previous life, when she first arrived at the Wu family, she also picked herself to speak, which made her feel good. Then she introduced Wu Baozhang to Cheng Ji, and her sister also looked at Wu Baozhang differently because of her, slowly, she dissolved into Cheng's family, and the more she played with Cheng Ji, the better she became, but she was a little alienated from herself, she was bitter in her heart, and she didn't want to pay attention to Wu Baozhang......

Do you have to go through these things again?

The sullenness swirled a few times in Zhou Shaojin's chest, and Zhou Shaojin suppressed the displeasure in his heart and said calmly: "My head is a little dizzy." If it's rude, please don't mind Miss Wu. ”

"How so?" Wu Baozhang smiled sweetly, "My sister is too polite." She said, holding out her hand, "I'll hold you." That way you don't have to be so uncomfortable. ”

Zhou Shaojin was disgusted in his heart, and was about to refuse, when his cold gaze drifted over.

She looked over and saw Wu Baohua with a sarcastic face.

Zhou Shaojin's heart moved, feeling as if something had happened, but he was not sure.

She smiled and pushed Wu Baozhang's hand away, and strode towards her sister: "No need." I took the opportunity to take a walk. ”

Wu Baozhang's smile suddenly froze a little, but she glanced at Wu Baohua, quickly regained her smile, and followed behind Zhou Shaojin unhurriedly.
