Chapter 41: Lottery

Xiaobaihe is located in the southern suburbs of Baihe Town, when the Ren family's carriage arrived, the warm shed on the bank had been set up the day before, and the Ren family had also sent people to erect countless colorful chess pieces on the river, enclosing a vast space to isolate the idle people.

When Ren Yaoqi and other female dependents got off the carriage, they saw that there were already many people watching the excitement outside. There were also half-grown children who ran up and down on the unfenced ice with small flat-bottomed carts made of wooden planks on thick hemp rope, or whistled back and forth in homemade skates and laughed loudly.

The housekeeper of the Ren family thought they were too noisy, so he sent the housekeeper to drive them away a few times, but as soon as they left the other children and ran back, they couldn't drive them away. In the end, it was Ren Yiyan, the eldest young master of the Ren family, who said that he left the house today to have fun, and it was better to be lively, so he gave up.

Except for the fifth master Ren Shimao and the fifth wife Lin who came today, the rest are the juniors of the Ren family. The five old men and their wives said before everyone went out that they had something to do first, and they would not go on the same road with them, so for the time being, the eldest young master Ren Yiyan and the eldest young grandmother Zhao were in charge.

Ren Yaoqi and all the sisters of the Ren family followed the Zhao family to the greenhouse, and as soon as they sat down, they saw another group of people walking in, and it was the young lady of the Han family who did not go out easily.

Ren Yaoqi looked out, and sure enough, he saw Han Yunqian, the young master of the Han family, and Ren Yiyan, and Qiu Yun and the others walked here while talking and laughing.

"Huh? Who is this? Ren Yaoting, the seventh lady of the Eastern Mansion, looked at the young lady of the Han family who was walking towards them and asked suspiciously, she had never seen Han Yu before.

Ren Yaoyin said with a smile: "This is Miss Han, her brother and third cousin are classmates and friends of Yunyang Academy, so my cousin sent a post to the Han family." โ€

Han You smiled and stepped forward to greet her, and the eldest young grandmother, Zhao, arranged for her to sit down next to Ren Yaoyin and Ren Yaoqi.

"That day, when I heard my cousin and eldest brother discuss sending a post to the Han family, I was worried that you wouldn't be able to come, but fortunately you came." Ren Yaoyin smiled kindly at Han You.

Han You looked around with bright eyes, and when she heard Ren Yaoyin's words, she whispered a little shyly: "I received your post last month, I, my mother, she happened to be sick, so ...... This time, my mother and brother told my grandmother that I would come. โ€

Han You's explanation was a little incompatible, but they had heard Han You mention the situation of the Han family before, so they understood what was going on, and couldn't help but feel a little more sympathy for her.

Although Han You is a little shy because he rarely goes out, he is docile and polite, so several sisters of the Ren family did not reject her after they came into contact with her.

Everyone sat and drank tea and ate snacks, but the game outside had not started for a long time, and the eldest and youngest grandmother Zhao explained that she would wait for the fifth master and the fifth wife to come.

After waiting for a long time, the eldest young master Ren Yiyan sent someone back to look for the fifth master and the Lin family outside, and announced the start of the game here.

At this time, Yun Wenfang, Han Yunqian, Qiu Yun, and Ren Yijian, the fifth young master of the Ren family, came out in single clothes, and several mothers-in-law were tying leggings and ice shoes to their legs.

Ice shoes are made of iron and tied to the feet with straps.

"Fifth brother, are they going to play?" The eldest young grandmother, Zhao, was stunned for a moment and looked at the Ren sisters, obviously she didn't know before.

The sisters of the Ren family all looked at each other, but it was Miss Han who said: "When I was on the road, I heard that Mr. Qiu and my brother said that each of them brought a team of family members. โ€

Sure enough, everyone saw that they had belts of four different colors tied around their waists.

Several young masters of the Ren family had also played this before, but they had never played in person. It's just a bit of a show.

The Zhao family was a little anxious when they heard this, the fifth wife and the fifth master did not come, and here she and the eldest young master were in charge. She was very afraid, if something happened, she would not be able to explain to the old lady and the eldest lady. So she hurriedly got up and went to discuss with the eldest young master, Ren Yiyan.

Ren Yaoyu pursed her lips and complained: "Sister-in-law is just cowardly, and she doesn't dare to make decisions about anything." If my mother was there, it wouldn't have been so troublesome. โ€

Ren Yaoyin frowned, and defended her sister-in-law softly: "Sister-in-law is also worried about her cousin's safety, I heard that someone broke his neck because of the ice frolic competition last year. โ€

The eldest and youngest grandmother Zhao is also from a famous family, with a gentle temperament and a good manner. She and the eldest young master Ren Yiyan went to give tea to the elders of the Ren family on the second day of their wedding, because it was raining outside and the road was slippery, when she went up the steps, Ren Yiyan inadvertently helped her in front of everyone, but she was so ashamed that she almost fell off the steps, blushing for a whole day, and was embarrassed to go out of the room for half a month.

The Zhao family has been married for two years, and her stomach has not moved, which makes her more cautious in the Ren family. Fortunately, Ren Yiyan has a gentle temperament, and the husband and wife have always been harmonious.

After a while, the Zhao clan came back a little depressed, obviously the young masters over there refused to listen to the persuasion and must play.

Ren Yijian still wore his outfit and ran over, squeezed his eyebrows and arched his hand: "Sisters-in-law, sisters and sisters, when you give Caitou land for a while, you must recognize my red waist seal!" are all generous, and I am the only one in the Ren family. โ€

said that Ren Yijian triumphantly turned around in front of everyone, so that everyone could see clearly the red belt he was wearing around his waist.

Qiu Yun laughed at him on the side: "It's good if your skills are not as good as admitting defeat, according to your approach, most of the people sitting here today are Ren family members." โ€

Everyone couldn't help but laugh, and any key blushed, made a grimace and ran away.

Qiu Yun blinked at Yunwen: "Shall we also learn from that kid to climb the relationship?" Otherwise, how can I be better if there is no one to cheer for a while? โ€

Yun Wen glanced in the direction of the female dependent, his eyes were slightly on Ren Yaoqi before he turned away again, and pulled the corners of his mouth and quipped: "Okay, if you lose, you still have to learn from him to cry nose?" โ€

Qiu Yun smiled "poof", remembering that he had joked that Ren Yijian lost to him in chess when he was a child, and he cried and cheated.

Outside, the gong sounded, and the game was about to begin. Several people walked outside. There were already four teams of eight people lined up on the ice.

The first is "rush and wait", and this competition is not divided into teams. After three beats of drums, everyone galloped back and forth on the river on their skates, and the one who arrived first won.

Hearing the cheers outside, the people in the greenhouse couldn't sit still, and they flocked to the entrance of the shed to watch. There were no elders present today, and even the Zhao family was much more relaxed, and was pulled by Ren Yaoyuqiang.

Ren Yaoyin saw that Han You also wanted to see it, so she took the initiative to invite her to join her, and the two asked Ren Yaochi if she wanted to go outside to see, Ren Yaochi shook her head: "You go first, I'll sit for a while." โ€

Seeing that Ren Yaohua didn't leave, Ren Yaoqi asked with a smile: "Isn't the third sister going to take a look?" The housekeeper has sent a number of strong men from the mine to surround the outside, and there are many mothers-in-law guarding outside the greenhouse, and the idlers can't wait to get in. โ€

Ren Yaohua is not very easy to get along with on weekdays, and the sisters of the Ren family went out in twos and threes, and no one greeted her.

Ren Yaohua didn't know what she was thinking, and raised her head when she heard the words. Before he could reply, he heard a sound of gongs and drums outside, and then several maids each held a basket and shuttled back and forth to ask for money. They wore red, yellow, blue, and blue belts around their waists, representing the team of the four young masters.

Under the leadership of Ren Yiyan and Zhao, everyone donated money one after another.

Ren Yaochi turned his head and instructed Sydney: "Take a dime of silver and give it to the little girl with the red belt." He asked Ren Yaohua again, "What about the third sister?" Who to choose? โ€

Ren Yaohua instructed her maid Turnip: "Give the fifth brother the red belt." โ€

Sydney and Turnip went happily.

Ren Yaoqi saw that the other two maids behind him were probing their brains and looking like they were about to move, so he smiled and said, "You guys should go too." Here are the parsleys they serve. "The maids can also give some colorful heads, which should be regarded as a good luck.

Xiangqin is Ren Yaohua's maids, but the maids around Ren Yaoqi are playful, and they happily retreat when they hear this.

"You're too indulgent of them!" Ren Yaohua couldn't look past it and frowned.

Ren Yaoqi smiled, the maids beside her were still those given by Aunt Fang for the time being, and their temperament was relatively jumpy, and most of them would have to be replaced in the future.

At this time, a maid wearing a cyan belt came here, holding the basket in her hand and bowing upright, her eyes swept over Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua, and then looked at Ren Yaoqi and said with a smile: "The slave is here to ask for a fortune for Gongzi Wen." โ€

Ren Yao was slightly stunned, who to give and how much to give are all voluntary, how can there be any initiative to ask for it?

Ren Yaohua on the side glanced at the maid, and then frowned at Ren Yaoqi.

Ren Yaoqi smiled: "The maids around me are all watching the excitement, and I'll let someone send it to you in the next one." Which yard are you from? How come I haven't seen it before? โ€

The maid pursed her lips and smiled: "The slave maid is sent by my old lady to serve my son-in-law, not from the Ren Mansion, so the fifth lady doesn't recognize the slave maid." โ€

After thinking about it, the maid said again: "Caitou is just asking for good luck, and it is not limited to money, and the fifth lady is the same for others......"

Before she finished speaking, Ren Yaohua said with a calm face: "Even if you are not our Ren family's maid, didn't the house teach you the rules?" The master's reward is up to you! โ€
