Chapter 80: Going Out

After Pan Qing left, Zhou Shaojin went to see Cheng Ji.

Ruyixuan's mother-in-law guarding the door was very embarrassed.

Zhou Shaojin is not the kind of person who doesn't know what to do, she discussed with the mother-in-law: "Aunt Lu just told you, didn't let Cousin Ji come out, and didn't let us go to play with her." Serve people's bowls and serve people. I don't want you to disobey your eldest wife, I just want you to go in and help me out, so I'll stand at the door and say a few words to my cousin. I promise that Cousin will not step over this threshold, and I will not go in...... This should always be possible, right? ”

The mother-in-law was relieved, and thanked Zhou Shaojin happily: "It's still Miss Cousin's kindness, I'll go and give you a message." After speaking, he also called the little maid to take a few pestles out and place them under the big tree at the door, to make a pot of tea, "Miss Biao sits here for a while, takes a cool drink, drinks a glass of water, don't heat it." ”

Zhou Shaojin smiled and thanked him, and he was not polite, and sat down under the big tree.

Shi Xiang helped Zhou Shaojin fan and served her tea.

Cheng Ji ran out of the courtyard like a gust of wind.

Zhou Shaojin hurriedly said: "You can't step this threshold - I promised that woman, you can't let me be untrustworthy!" ”

Cheng Ji giggled, stood still at the door, and said, "You have a good idea!" We're here every day after that. ”

"I don't have that much to do." Zhou Shaojin smiled, and the mother-in-law hurriedly brought the small pestle to the door, and served Cheng Ji to sit down in the door, served refreshments, and stayed in the courtyard from afar.

Cheng Ji said: "I know Pan Qing is gone...... Did you go to see her off? What does she look like? Is it still arrogant? I guess she's supposed to be discouraged. Didn't she always think she was good? Everybody would like her......"

Zhou Shaojin came to sue her about this.

She wanted to make Cheng Ji happy.

If she didn't know about it, she didn't need to say anything.

"I didn't send Pan Qing." Zhou Shaojin smiled, "I don't have time to ......"

She told her all about it.

Cheng Ji didn't believe it at all.

She felt that Zhou Shaojin was deliberate, she laughed and was very happy. Even Zhou Shaojin's mood improved a lot.

The two talked about it for a long time, during which there was a mother-in-law probing her brain in the distance, Zhou Shaojin guessed that it might be Jiang's side to serve, but she pretended not to see it, and continued to talk to Zhou Shaojin before getting up to say goodbye.

Cheng Ji was reluctant: "When will you come to see me again?" ”

"I've been making winter clothes for my father these days," Zhou Shaojin said with a smile, "I'll come to see you when I'm free." ”

Cheng Ji's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, "Isn't it like Sister Chu Jin?" You can make me one too! The garment is so pretty. ”

I knew it would be like this!

Zhou Shaojin felt as if her forehead was sweating.

As long as Cheng Ji likes something about her, he will ask her bluntly.

In her previous life, she suffered a lot of such losses.

But in this life, she decided to reject her unequivocally.

It's a big deal for two people to quarrel again!

"No, I'm not available!"

"How can you do that? Aren't we the best sisters? I'm just asking you to make me a dress......"

"Aren't you tired of making clothes? I'm not an embroiderer, so why do you need me to make clothes for you? Since we are the best sisters, shouldn't we be considerate of each other? Look at my sister, she thinks needlework is bad for her eyes, so she won't let me make clothes for her. ”

Cheng Ji condensed.

Zhou Shaojin softly told the mother-in-law who was guarding the door to pack up the teacup and go back to Wanxiangju.

But on the way back to Wanxiangju, when she passed by Jiashutang, she met Mrs. Chuda.

Seeing that she was wearing a moon-white plain Hangzhou silk gown, with rows of jasmine flowers on her bun, she was fresh and beautiful, which made people a little unable to take their eyes off, and her heart moved, and said, "You will take a leave of absence with Mrs. Guo tomorrow?" I'll take you and your sister to a relative's house tomorrow for a drink! ”

"Ahh Zhou Shaojin's eyes widened.

In my previous life, there was no such thing.

Her clear eyes were like spring water, reflecting the figure of the eldest lady.

Mrs. Chu laughed and said: "Miss Sixteen of the Gu family in Meihua Lane is engaged tomorrow, and I will send a post to Yun Zhentang, what your grandmother means, last time your Uncle Yuan was in high school, the Gu family sent a congratulatory gift, and now that the sixteenth miss of the Gu family is engaged, we should also go and join in the fun." ”

Go to Gu's house!

The Gu family of Gu Qinghong in Plum Blossom Lane...... My grandfather had lived in the Gu family for some days, and he wanted to marry his mother to the Gu family...... I don't know if anyone in the Gu family knows about the events of the year now...... Maybe I'll find out something else about it...... Even if you can't inquire about anything, the Gu family is the head of the Shilin in Jinling City, and it is very rare to be able to go to the Gu family to have a look......

Zhou Shaojin felt very excited when she thought about it, and immediately responded, and said, "Then what will my sister and I wear tomorrow?" Do you want to prepare some small gifts? Handkerchiefs, purses, fan bags or something, I still have a few embroidery workers there are quite novel, or I'll take them to the Hanqiu Pavilion to show you what is suitable, right? ”

Her initiative pleased Mrs. Chuda. Mrs. Chu smiled and said, "We'll discuss it in the evening." ”

Zhou Shaojin responded with a smile and went back to the courtyard where he lived.

Zhou Chujin was talking to Zhixiang, and when he saw Zhou Shaojin, he smiled and said, "You came back just in time, tomorrow is Plum Blossom Lane......"

"I know!" Zhou Shaojin interrupted her sister's words with a smile and said, "My aunt said that she would take us to Gu's house to eat happy wine!" ”

The eldest aunt didn't mention taking Zhou Shaojin before, I don't know if it was my grandmother's intention or my aunt's temporary intention?

Whether it was the former or the latter, Zhou Chujin had no intention of making her sister sad, she smiled: "Since you already know, I won't say more." ”

Zhou Shaojin nodded again and again, and told Zhou Chujin about the fact that Mrs. Chu asked their sisters to go to the Hanqiu Pavilion at night.

Maybe I'm afraid that my sister will make a mistake, right?

After all, this is the first time that my sister has followed her aunt to relatives.

The Gu family is also the home of etiquette, poetry and books, and it is said that there are many rules, and if you lose etiquette and make jokes to others, it will be troublesome.

Zhou Chujin pondered in his heart and responded with a smile.

Zhou Shaojin asked her sister: "I heard my eldest aunt say that the Gu family still came to send congratulatory gifts when the second uncle Yuan was in high school, and the Gu family has not had a wedding or funeral in the past few years?" ”

There are people who come and go.

The four rooms are thin, and there is nothing festive, which is understandable. But the Gu family is only the sixteenth in the ranking, and it is certain that Ding Ding is prosperous, and it is impossible that he has not invited guests in the past few years.

In her previous life, in her memory, Sifang had no contact with the Gu family.

Zhou Chujin said: "The Gu family is the in-law of Mrs. Guo's side, and they are close to the long house. Last time, Second Uncle Yuan's title on the gold list was on the way of the long house, and the Gu family sent a congratulatory gift to him, and he didn't take this matter to heart, and if there was something on the Gu family's side, he didn't give us a post. This time it was Mrs. Yuan who had something to find her aunt, and the aunt saw the invitation of the Gu family, thinking that they had sent a congratulatory gift to the face of the long house at that time, and we should also give the long house a support and go to the Gu family with the members. ”

No wonder!

Zhou Shaojin suddenly realized.

Zhou Chujin smiled: "Speaking of which, this matter is also related to you. ”

"Me?" Zhou Shaojin was very surprised.

"yes!" Zhou Chujin said with a smile, "Mrs. Yuan asked her aunt to come over to ask you to help draw a few tricks." She paused slightly, and then said, "Embroidery is done by someone, as long as you have a pattern." ”

If it weren't for that, I guess my sister wouldn't tell her, right?

Zhou Shaojin smiled: "I listen to my sister." ”

Zhou Chujin touched her head and said, "It was said that Cousin Xiao was about to give birth, and Mrs. Yuan wanted to embroider a swaddling baby pattern for Cousin Xiao's little Maomao." The person in the sewing room is just a craftsman, and Mrs. Yuan is not satisfied with a few looks, and the last time I saw the skirt you made for me, I wanted you to draw one - Cousin Xiao is married to her grandfather Tongxiang Yuan. I thought it would be good for you, so I agreed to it. ”

This is not difficult for Zhou Shaojin.

She smiled and agreed.

When Mrs. Guan knew that Mrs. Chu also took Zhou Shaojin to Plum Blossom Lane, she took her hand and told her for a long time. When she arrived at the Qiuhan Pavilion, Mrs. Chu Da picked two pairs of purses from Zhou Shaojin's embroidery, and then took out her own gold bills and put them in the purse: "Use this as a congratulatory gift." ”

"How can this work!" Zhou Chujin refused again and again, "This gift of gold, we can come out by ourselves." ”

Mrs. Chu smiled and said, "Since you go out with me, you naturally have to listen to me." If you have this filial piety, when you marry Ruyi Langjun, your aunt is also old, remember to write a letter to greet your aunt during the New Year's holidays, and your aunt will be satisfied. ”

If you continue to talk about it, it will be a bit raw.

Zhou Chujin pulled Zhou Shaojin to thank Mrs. Chuda.

Mrs. Chu smiled and sent the two sisters out.

The next day, Zhou Shaojin wore a lake green plain lake silk gown, Zhou Chujin wore a lotus lotus color plain lake silk gown, and got into a sedan chair with Mrs. Chu.

The sedan chair stopped at the side door.

Zhou Shaojin didn't know why, so he lifted the sedan curtain and looked out.

Yuan's sedan chair gradually approached.

It turned out that they were waiting for the Yuan family.

Zhou Shaojin couldn't help but sigh.

Why is she so stupid.

Since the fourth room went to the Gu family because of the long room, it must have gone with the people in the long room.

I don't know if Cheng Xu will follow.

Don't meet Cheng Xu.

Mrs. Chu has beckoned the Zhou sisters to get off the sedan chair and greet the Yuan family.

Zhou Shaojin followed her sister to meet Yuan.

Yuan nodded with a smile, and spoke to Zhou Shaojin more cordially than ever before: "...... The beaded flower I wore today is very beautiful, in which silver building was it played? ”

This is because she begged herself to draw a picture of her daughter's baby, right?

Zhou Shaojin sneered in his heart, and smiled politely: "I don't know-I have put it in my makeup since I was a child." ”

Or, is it a relic of the Zhuang family?

Yuan thought about it, it was not good to ask again, and after a few words of greeting with Mrs. Chu, they each got into the sedan chair.

Meihua Lane is in the east of Jinling City, very close to Mrs. Guo's maiden stone lane, and only a shot away from the ancestral house of the Zhou family.

When they arrived, the alley of Plum Blossom Lane was already full of sedan chairs.

Someone ran over and asked, opened the side door, and let them go directly into the inner courtyard.

Sisters, today's update.

PS: I feel like the pink ticket is like a carrot hanging in front of me, and when I thought it was finished, it popped up again...... Tomorrow will continue to add more...... Hehe......
