Cheng Ji shouted very doggedly to Cuihuan to make a pot in front of the West Lake Longjing.

Zhou Shaojin teased her: "It turns out that you still have such good tea here!" Why did you entertain me in a big red robe the last time I came? What else do you say, I fancy you and take anything directly, and you can't bear to use tea, and you still say this kind of big talk! ”

It's not that West Lake Longjing is better than Da Hong Pao, but West Lake Longjing drinks spring tea, Da Hong Pao drinks autumn tea, and now it's summer, and last autumn's Da Hong Pao is naturally not as good as West Lake Longjing this spring.

Cheng Ji smiled and said, "No, no." Those are all the mothers-in-law's own opinions. You know, I'm detained here, how can I have the heart to drink tea! At the end of the words, there was already a bit of resentment in his tone.

Zhou Shaojin didn't believe it.

"How can you doubt me?" Cheng Ji pretended to be angry and pounced.

Zhou Shaojin got up and fled.

The two frolicked for a while.

Cheng Ji asked about Zhou Shaojin's visit to Gu's house.

Zhou Shaojin knew that she was bored, so she told her in detail about going to Gu's house as a guest.

Cheng Ji listened with relish. After a while, he said, "According to what you say, then Wu Baozhang was rejected by Miss Sun and them", and after a while, he said, "What does that Miss Azhu look like?" What are the collars inlaid with?", and said after a while, "How many young ladies are there in the Gu family?" That Seventeen Miss is really as good as you say"...... When it came to Lao Anren asking them to play cards, Cheng Ji laughed and said: "It seems that there are advantages to not being good at cards." Lao An people will definitely remember Sister Chu Jin, maybe one day they will remember, and they will make a special trip to ask Sister Chu Jin to wipe the cards! ”

It would be nice if that were the case.

The Gu family is very famous in Shilin in the south, and the Liao family is also a family of poetry and books, and the elder sister and the Gu family are close, and there are only benefits and no disadvantages.

Zhou Shaojin thought about it, and did not tell Cheng Cheng about the secret marriage, but took the opportunity to inquire about Cheng Chi and said, "...... According to Lao Anren, Uncle Chi often visited her old man's home...... Do you know about Uncle Chi? ”

"I don't know." Cheng Ji didn't care, and said with a smile, "I only heard my father say that Uncle Chi Cong is very powerful and very good at business." There are also boats going north and south, and if we receive good medicinal materials in our shop, they will all be transported back from my uncle's ship. She said. He winked at Zhou Shaojin and said, "Anyway, Changfang is very rich." Mrs. Guo is richer. If you help Mrs. Guo copy the scriptures, she will not treat you badly. ”

Zhou Shaojin couldn't cry or laugh.

Cheng Ji beckoned his mother-in-law over, handed the invitation to the mother-in-law, and said, "Go and show it to my mother, and ask my mother, should I go or not?" ”

The third room has always been keen on the powerful.

Zhou Shaojin was completely sure that the Jiang family would agree to Cheng Ji to go to the Liangguo Mansion as a guest, which was why she asked Azhu for an invitation.

The mother-in-law galloped away.

Zhou Shaojin didn't want to meet with Jiang, so she got up and said goodbye.

Cheng Ji pulled her and said, "You got this post for me, why don't you see my mother before leaving." ”

In her opinion, her mother has always been a little fond of vanity, and Zhou Shaojin was able to help her get an invitation to the Liangguo Mansion, which was a very decent thing for her mother, and she should thank Zhou Shaojin. In Zhou Shaojin's opinion, Jiang is not only a good face, likes to be competitive, but also has a very hard heart, when there is no conflict of interest, she is very good to Cheng Jiqian, but when there is a conflict of interest, she is not soft, she doesn't like this kind of person, it is better to have less contact.

"Who knows what Aunt Lu will say?" She joked, "I don't want to stay here and watch you mother and daughter get angry." When the time comes, will I help you or Aunt Lu? I'll go back to Wanxiangju first, and when you decide, send a maid to tell me. ”

Cheng Ji felt that what Zhou Shaojin said was reasonable, so he had to let her go.

But on the way, she still ran into the Jiang family, who was surrounded by a group of maids.

"Shaojin!" Jiang Shi greeted Zhou Shaojin from a distance, "I heard that you helped the girl get an invitation to go to the Liangguo Mansion, you really have a heart!" No wonder our family girl always says that you are her good sister, and you have not forgotten her when you have good things. When she approached, she took Zhou Shaojin's hand with a smile on her face, "I don't know what rules the Liangguo Mansion has?" What do we have for her? Don't lose the face of Jiuru Lane at that time. He added, "Shaojin, my aunt got a few pairs of jade hairpins a few days ago, and the jade quality of the carving is still acceptable, so I'll let the maid send it over and play with it for you and your sister." ”

Zhou Shaojin was slightly stunned.

In her previous life, she was so good with Cheng Ji and did so many things for Cheng Ji, and Jiang never thanked her and gave her a stitch.

She suddenly understood a little bit of the reason why Mrs. Guan didn't like to deal with Sanfang very much - in Sanfang's eyes, there was only interests, no family affection. Even if there is family affection, it is subservient to interests. It feels too cold.

Zhou Shaojin felt that he and Jiang were not speculative, so he thanked her with a smile and said, "My aunt and I are helping to prepare my sister's clothes, and I don't know what the rules are." ”

Let the eldest aunt deal with her, she doesn't think she has the ability to do it.

"That's right!" Jiang smiled, "Then I'll ask your aunt later." ”

Zhou Shaojin and Jiang broke up.

When she returned to Wanxiangju, her sister had not returned, but Ma Fushan's family sent her a letter from her father to her and her sister.

Letters sent in mid-June arrived in mid-July.

It took almost a month to go back and forth.

But usually, my sister writes to my father, and there is a reply in half a month at most.

Was it because my father found it difficult for him to answer the letter?

Zhou Shaojin rubbed the envelope, and only after a while did he cut the seal with scissors.

Her father gave a brief answer to what color and style of clothes she liked to wear, but spent two-thirds of the time talking about the old house of the Zhuang family in Guanjie.

He didn't mention the entanglement between the Zhuang Cheng family, but just told Zhou Shaojin that which of the Zhuang family's property was inherited by the Zhuang family's uncle, and which ones were left to the Zhuang family, was decided by her maternal grandfather, Mrs. Zhuang. So no matter how Uncle Zhuang finally disposed of this house, Zhou Shaojin was not suitable to interfere, nor was it suitable to buy the house back. And Uncle Zhuang is a person of bad character, it is best for her not to contact, if there is anything, she can tell him directly, or you can ask him directly, and the rumors stop at the wise.

Father should have understood her words, so he asked her not to take care of the house on Guanjie......

In other words, the father knows about the mother.

's mother was honest and honest with her father, which made Zhou Shaojin feel relieved, and her eyes fell on her father's letter to her sister.

What would my father say to my sister?

Zhou Shaojin was eager to try and wanted to see the letter.

She picked it up and put it down, put it down and picked it up, and finally thought of a way to get the best of both worlds - she put away her father's letter to her, and when Zhou Chujin came back, she could read her father's reply to her sister with her sister.

Thinking of her concealment from her sister, she was very uneasy, but Zhou Chujin did not doubt it, and read the letter with her with a smile.

In the letter, Zhou Zhen had another tone on this matter.

He told Zhou Chujin not to let Zhou Shaojin go out of the house casually, let alone buy a house in Guanjie, and finally said that after the autumn harvest, the yamen was not so busy, and he would send one of his staff back to Jinling, and if there was anything, he would talk about it then.

Zhou Chujin and Zhou Shaojin looked at each other.

It's just a house close to the Cheng family, and my father actually wants to send his staff back to Jinling.

Zhou Chujin didn't understand it very much, but Zhou Shaojin knew that his father was suspicious and wanted to send his henchmen back to see for himself.

That's fine.

Maybe she can find out some things through Guò's father's staff, so that she doesn't run around without a head.

Zhou Shaojin accepted the letter with a smile and comforted her sister: "Since this is the case, then leave it to your father, so as not to make you ** heart." ”

Zhou Chujin hated that iron could not become steel, and said: "This is our own business, what is it to hand it over to others?" You just have to get by, and you don't have to worry about anything. ”

Zhou Shaojin smiled, changed the topic, and asked about the gift for Azhu: "...... What is it? ”

"A set of lone versions of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone in Wende Pavilion." Zhou Chujin showed it to her and sighed, "I found it from Uncle Chu's study." It is said that only 100 sets were sold at that time, and each set was different. Uncle Chu's set was originally going to be passed on to his cousin, and he chose the gentleman and three friends, and this time he took it out to give us a gift, saying that we are a family of poetry and books, and it is best to send these things. ”

"That's not good, is it?" Zhou Shaojin was very grateful to his uncle and aunt, and said, "Didn't you take away my cousin's things?" ”

"I say the same thing." Zhou Chujin said helplessly, "But my aunt said that things are dead and people are alive, let me find a better one to give to my cousin in the future." ”

Zhou Shaojin said worriedly: "Where to find it?" Why don't you write an envelope to your father and ask him to think of a way! ”

My sister's face turned red, and she said vaguely: "Don't worry about this matter, I have already taken care of it." When the time comes, you just take the things and give them gifts. ”

In my heart, I thought that my aunt was half joking and half serious: "If we give it to someone else today, there may not be no one else to send us tomorrow." As long as you can marry a good husband, a set of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone is nothing, even the antique gold and stone aunt will not be heartbroken. ”

Zhou Shaojin thought that it was really not possible, so he tried to buy a set from others at a high price.

The two sisters had their own ideas, but neither of them mentioned this topic again for a while, and invited Mrs. Chu to come over and help their sisters choose the jewelry to wear on the day of the Midyear Festival.

Guo'er was ordered by the Jiang family to send the hosta, and said with a smile: "...... It is said that there are two pairs of eldest ladies and two pairs of second misses. ”

The carved red lacquer box is engraved with exquisite lotus patterns, which makes people feel that the contents of the box are very valuable at a glance.

Zhou Shaojin smiled and thanked him, and left Guo'er to drink tea and eat snacks.

Guo'er refused, and said with a smile: "The eldest lady is choosing clothes and jewelry for the eldest lady for the Midyear Festival, and she is still waiting for me to go back and open the warehouse!" ”

Zhou Shaojin didn't force him to stay, and asked Shi Xiang to take a purse containing a pair of silver bills that were rising step by step and send Guo'er out.
