Chapter 314: Windmills
Zhou Shaojin gently stroked the wind leaves of the windmill, like caressing the delicate flowers in spring.
Bi Tao pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "The fourth master really has a heart, knowing that the second lady is bored at home, so he specially sent these windmills." ”
Zhou Shaojin nodded, his eyebrows were so soft that he seemed to be able to drip water, and instructed Bi Tao: "Plug these windmills into the window lattice." ”
So she could fall asleep watching the windmills.
Bi Tao smiled and responded "yes", and led a few little maids to plug in the windmill with great interest.
Mrs. Guo was terrified.
What is Shiro going to do?
Did he want to tell her about his decision, to show his determination?
Mrs. Guo drank a few sips of tea, and then she calmed down slightly, and said to the servants in the house with a quiet smile: "You four masters treat Shaojin as a child who is ignorant of the world, and when you see Shaojin sick, you actually bought a bunch of windmills and came back. ”
Biyu refilled the tea for Mrs. Guo, and said with a smile: "The second cousin in the mountain house is the youngest, and she is soft and weak, and it makes people pity when she looks at it, and the fourth master naturally treats the second cousin as a child!" This is also the fate of the second cousin and the fourth master. If Miss Sheng, she can turn into water after eating ice cubes, let alone being coaxed as a child, or respecting as a young lady, I am afraid that the four masters will feel that it is not necessary. ”
As she spoke, Pearl and the others, who were helping Mrs. Guo fan on the side, laughed.
Cheng Sheng is in good shape, and he has almost never been sick when he grows so big. Once it was raining heavily, the water was too urgent, and the water in the Hanbi Mountain House was a foot high, so she instructed Mama Lu to catch a duck and throw it in the yard to paddle. happened to be seen by Cheng Chi. Busy people fished her up, and was afraid that she would suffer from the cold, so I asked a doctor to come to the doctor, and boiled ginger soup for her to drink. Who knew that Cheng Sheng's medicine refused to drink, and the ginger soup was stuffed into the mouth of the maid who served him personally, and he didn't even sneeze...... From then on, even if Cheng Ji went to the house to uncover the tiles, Cheng Chi didn't care about her anymore.
Mrs. Guo also laughed.
But there was some bitterness in my heart.
This child has pitied the weak since he was a child, and likes to be obedient and obedient, and Shao Jin's temperament is against his appetite.
It's no wonder that he keeps that little girl in his heart everywhere.
Old Madam Guo sighed helplessly.
Zhou Shaojin didn't dare to move around anymore, so he called Ma Fushan's family to come in, and after entrusting Ma Fushan with the letter to Li Jing, he obediently nested at home and took medicine to rest. In the evening, Mrs. Guo came to see her, and after crossing the bright road, she recuperated in the house with more peace of mind.
It's just that she didn't see Cheng Chi, and she felt a little sad.
But what if you are sad?
She could still ask Uncle Chi why he didn't come to see her?
Let's not mention that Uncle Chi is very busy these days, that is, she has that strange mind for Uncle Chi, if Uncle Chi sees it for a moment or two, it is enough for her to die of shame.
She was lying on the bed, and her expression was a little dazed.
But when I looked up and saw those whirring windmills, I felt my heart bulging, like the mood of a spring outing.
It's just that this mood didn't last long.
On the day she received the windmill, she sent the Spring Festival Gala to thank Cheng Chi, and the Spring Festival Gala came back and said that Cheng Chi just replied to her lightly "I know", and he has not been seen since then.
Did Uncle Chi do it unintentionally and occasionally? Or are you afraid that she will be lonely, so I bought it for her to relieve her boredom?
Zhou Shaojin couldn't guess.
She thought of the glazed hairpin, Nanzhu head noodles, and red coral jewelry that Cheng Chi gave her...... I also felt that Cheng Chi was more or less different from himself.
Zhou Shaojin shrunk on the bed, happy and sad for a while, the days were a little confused, if it weren't for the overheard the little maid talking outside the window about the marriage of the prince of the Liangguo Mansion, the first dowry of the eldest lady of the Liu family had already entered the Liangguo Mansion, and the last one had not yet been carried out of the Liu family, and the dowry of the eldest lady of the Liu family was at least more than 10,000 taels of silver, she was afraid that she would still be addicted to her own mood and unable to extricate herself.
"Spring Festival Gala," she struggled to sit up, "has it been May 15?" ”
The relationship between the Cheng family and the Liangguo Mansion is good, Zhu Pengju marries, and it stands to reason that the Cheng family should go to the mansion. Although Mrs. Guo and the others are widows and can't go to the wedding, the Zhu family should also make the next post anyway, why didn't she hear any movement at all?
Cheng Chi didn't come to see her either!
She felt like a pinprick in her heart.
The Spring Festival Gala smiled: "You are embarrassed to say!" When the Liangguo Mansion came to place an invitation that day, the eldest lady of the Liangguo Mansion also specially instructed the grandmother who sent the post to greet you on her behalf, but you fell asleep and couldn't wake up, but fortunately, Fan's mother had sharp eyes and sued the grandmother, told her about your illness, and took her own body and money to send the grandmother, otherwise it would be a joke! ”
Zhou Shaojin's face was so red that he could drip blood.
The Spring Festival Gala came in with a bird's nest and said with a smile: "Second Miss, this is what the fourth master asked Mama Shang to send over yesterday, and Mother Fan took Xiaotan to wash it for a long time before washing it." Drink it while it's hot! It doesn't taste good when it's cold! ”
Zhou Shaojin was stunned for a moment and said, "Why did Uncle Chi suddenly think of sending bird's nest over?" ”
The Spring Festival Gala said with a smile: "The old lady has some discomfort in her throat these days, and the bird's nest with good quality at home was sent to the capital by the old lady to give Miss Sheng as a dowry a few days ago. So the fourth master deliberately asked people to buy some back. A total of five catties. You are two pounds, and the old lady is three pounds. Mother Fan saw that you were not in good spirits these days, so she stewed a little. ”
Zhou Shaojin felt as if he had been poured cold water.
Uncle Chi likes her, but he doesn't like Li Jing.
Cheng Ji missed the appointment with Li Jing, Li Jing didn't know what was going on, he was afraid that Cheng Ji would send someone to find her, and he was afraid that Cheng Ji would leave the house without permission, so he not only sent someone to guard the inn, but also quietly rented the second floor of the grocery store at the mouth of Jiuru Lane and squatted there for three or four days......
Zhou Shaojin blinked her tears vigorously, hid the wetness in the corners of her eyes, and instructed the Spring Festival Gala to fetch cold water to wash her face: "...... It can't be like this anymore! ”
She herself had a dirty heart and thought of Uncle Chi's kindness to her as a pickled thing, is there anything more despicable and shameless in this world?
If she continues like this, is she still a human being?
Is it still worth living in a house in the mountains?
Zhou Shaojin immersed his face in cold water.
The Spring Festival Gala was so frightened that her face was pale: "Second Miss, Second Miss, what's wrong with you?" ”
"I'm fine!" Zhou Shaojin raised his head, his eyes were red as if he had entered water, and said, "It's too hot, it's cooler like this!" ”
The Spring Festival Gala patted his chest directly, and said fearfully: "You scared me to death!" I thought you had weak hands and feet......"
She wiped Zhou Shaojin's face with a handkerchief.
The water dripped onto Zhou Shaojin's hair, leaving traces of all sizes.
The Spring Festival Gala hurriedly called the little maid to come over with a dry handkerchief.
Zhou Shaojin smiled: "Forget it! Why don't you let them fetch water and serve me in a bath." I have been lying in bed for the past few days without moving, and I feel that my whole body is rancid...... After washing up, it's better to go and say hello to the old lady! ”
He also washes away all the filth in his heart.
From now on, she is still Uncle Chi's docile niece.
Obediently listen to Uncle Chi's words and accompany Uncle Chi well.
The droplets on the tip of her head seemed to drip into her eyes, astringent, and tears flowed endlessly.
Seeing her cheer up in the Spring Festival Gala, she was naturally overjoyed, and while taking a handkerchief to wipe Zhou Shaojin's face, she said: "Second Miss can't do this in the future, it's just water in the eyes, if it gets into the ears or chokes in the throat, it will be troublesome." When I was young, the big girl in our village was like this......"
"Alright, alright!" Zhou Shaojin covered his eyes with a handkerchief and said in a vague tone, "Why are you so verbose?" If you do this again, be careful that I marry you off! ”
The Spring Festival Gala made a big red face, and he was so ashamed that he didn't dare to make a sound anymore. On the other hand, the little sandals who served on the side covered their mouths and laughed.
Zhou Shaojin took a bath, dried her hair, combed her son, changed into a moon-white silver striped silk shirt, tied a skirt of the same color, put on a silver-red burnt cloth armor, wore a jade bracelet given to Zhou's father, and went to Mrs. Guo.
Mrs. Guo was bored, playing leaf cards with Jasper.
Seeing Zhou Shaojin coming, Pearl hurriedly stood up and made way for her.
How could Zhou Shaojin take the lead, smiled and sat down with a smile, ran to the old lady Guo and sat down, and said obediently: "I'll show the old lady the cards!" ”
Mrs. Guo smiled hehehe, and saw that Zhou Shaojin's little face was as smooth and tender as a freshly peeled egg, and said, "Is your body better?" ”
"That's a lot!" Zhou Shaojin said embarrassedly, "Let you worry about it." ”
"Okay! That's it! Mrs. Guo said with a smile, lowered her head and concentrated on playing cards.
Zhou Shaojin took a look, and saw that Mrs. Guo played her cards very steadily, and she could calculate how many cards she played, how many cards she had in her hand, and how many cards were outside, her thoughts were very clear, and she didn't need others to watch at all.
Mrs. Guo's mind seemed to be all on the cards, and she didn't care too much about her tea and snacks.
Zhou Shaojin felt a hint of coldness.
But why did Mrs. Guo be cold to her?
Zhou Shaojin was puzzled.
Cheng Chi came over.
He came to bid farewell to Mrs. Guo: "...... I'm going to Huai'an tomorrow. I came back ten days later. ”
He used to go out a lot, too.
Old Madam Guo was used to it, and told him what he should pay attention to on the road as usual, but the corner of her eye glanced at Zhou Shaojin.
Zhou Shaojin sat there with her eyelids drooping, her nose and nose, and she couldn't bear to stare at Cheng Chi - she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to take it back if she looked at it.
Old Madam Guo breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, there is nothing unusual on Shaojin's side.
If Shaojin also thinks about Shiro, it will be really tricky.
The thought flashed, but Cheng Chi smiled and said, "Shaojin, do you want anything for me to bring?" I might even go to Zhenjiang! ”
"Really?" Zhou Shaojin raised her head overjoyed, looked at her with a pair of big apricot eyes, like Wang Chunshui, and said, "Uncle Chi can you help me bring a letter to my sister!" ”
"Of course!" Cheng Chi smiled quietly, but his heart jumped twice.
The little maid is really like a flower, and she has to be raised alive.
No, after a few days of resting at home, I became more and more refreshed.
