"Mom Chang, what should I bring? You can't go empty-handed. "Lin Zhu has a headache." That's right, it's best to send some girls to make their own hands. Chang's mother thought about it, and suddenly felt that her girl didn't answer, and when she looked up, Lin Zhu was looking at her with a pout, "What's wrong?" "Chang's mother is a little puzzled." Chang's mother makes fun of me, I don't know how to embroider needlework, how can I send it? Looking at Chang's mother's sudden realization, Lin Zhu was even more depressed.

"It's okay, I just embroidered a screen a few days ago, girl, you can bring it over and give it to her." Qian Xuehui said with a smile. "Really? Is that good? Lin Zhu's eyes suddenly lit up. Take it for me to see. ”

When Qian Xuehui brought the screen over, Lin Zhu instantly regretted it. It was an ebony carved and embroidered screen, small enough to sit on a table. Qian Xuehui's embroidery is very good, and the peony flower embroidery is beautiful, and it is not much different from the real peony. "This embroidery is so good, I can't even bear to send it away." Lin Zhu's appearance amused, "Girl, there will be better ones in the future, this is nothing." Chang's mother said with a smile.

Lin Zhu was a little shy, he was really, these objects were works of art in his own eyes, and they were not worth mentioning in the eyes of these embroidery masters.

When the day came, Lin Zhu took Chang's mother, and Chang Shi drove to the magistrate's mansion, and took the name card to the little man who guarded the door, Lin Zhu and Chang's mother went in, and asked Chang Shi to pick them up when the time came, so he let him go back first, but in this way, the servant woman waiting for Lin Zhu at the door looked at her in surprise. In their opinion, it is normal for the coachman to wait for the master at the door. But Chang Shi is not a coachman. Lin Zhu also did not have a special driver.

Lin Zhu didn't care what others thought, and only let the servant woman lead the way, and Chang's mother gave the little man who opened the door a few pennies and asked him to buy some snacks to eat. The little girl happily took it and said that she would tell them when the car came.

The servant woman who took Lin Zhu was a dowry brought by Mrs. Lin from home, and these actions were very surprising in her eyes, but she didn't expect a village girl's attendant to be so generous. However, she also came out of the door of the mansion and did not show it on her face.

"Sister Xiaozhu, you're here." Dong Yuzhen was looking forward to it in the flower hall, and finally saw Lin Zhu coming. "Hello Miss Dong. Thank you, thank you, please come over. Lin Zhu and Dong Yuzhen saw each other. That's standard ladylike etiquette. "No need to be so polite, come, I'll introduce my mother to you." Dong Yuzhen took Lin Zhu's hand and went to meet Mrs. Lin.

"The little girl Lin Zhu pays a visit to Mrs. Lin." Lin Zhu curtsed to Mrs. Lin. "You're welcome. Hurry up, please. Mrs. Lin sat on the main seat. Gave him a little help. Immediately, a maid came over and helped Lin Zhu up. "Hehe, I've heard Zhen'er talk about you a long time ago, but I haven't had a chance to see you. Now it's just a matter of getting what she wants, Zhen'er has had few playmates since she was a child, and she finally fell in love with you, Zhen'er, you have to get along with Miss Lin well, and you are not allowed to look at other people's little bullies. Mrs. Lin's voice was very gentle, and Lin Zhu stood up and looked up at her. The woman of about thirty-one or twelve years old, her face is white and beautiful, although it is not a heavenly fragrance, but she is also dignified and elegant, wearing a light-colored blue satin brocade, and there is not too much decoration on her head, but only that jade hairpin can make people understand what low-key luxury is, more eye-catching than those glittering jewelry, but not ostentatious at all, she is very different from the image of Lin Zhu's imaginary official wife.

"Mother, don't say bad things about me in front of Sister Xiaozhu, what if she takes it seriously?" In front of Mrs. Lin, Dong Yuzhen revealed the innocent side of her character, which was very different from what she looked like that day in Qiaodiefang. "Sister Xiaozhu, you don't want my mother, you come to be my sister."

"Miss Dong, how dare I do this." Lin Zhu was a little frightened, it was really inappropriate for you to call each other sisters, a daughter of a dignified county family, and a rural village girl like me.

"Why don't you dare to be, as soon as I saw you that day, I felt very close to you, and I wanted to recognize you as my sister, how about it? Is it okay to be my sister? Dong Yuzhen came to Lin Zhu.

"But......" Lin Zhu looked at Mrs. Lin with some embarrassment.

"Little bamboo girl, you will hand it over to you, don't care about those vulgar etiquette." Mrs. Lin understood Lin Zhu's concerns and spoke. Since both the mother and daughter said so, the lady of the county did not dislike that she was a village girl, and it would be a little unethical for her to refuse again. "Thanks to Madame, Lin Zhu respectfully disobeyed." And this kind of interaction, Lin Zhu has no psychological burden. After glancing at Chang's mother, he nodded in agreement.

"Great, Sister Xiaozhu, then you will call me Sister Zhen in the future, come and call one." Dong Yuzhen smiled and took Lin Zhu's hand. Lin Zhu also called softly, "Sister Jane." Let Dong Yuzhen be overjoyed.

"Come, Xiaozhu, this is my gift to you, although your sister Zhen is a few years older than you, she is still like a child, she talks straightforwardly, and your sisters get along well in the future and move around often." Mrs. Lin took a white jade bracelet off her wrist and put it on Lin Zhu's wrist. Lin Zhu still wanted to excuse himself, but Mrs. Lin pretended to be angry and said, "The elder gives it, you can't resign, accept it." ”

Lin Zhu had no choice but to accept it, and asked Chang's mother to give the gift she brought, "A little heart, a little rude, and please Mrs. Lin don't dislike it." Lin Zhu's small screen was packed in a box, and Chang's mother held it over, and Mrs. Lin took it over with the first maid. When I opened it, it was a peony flower embroidery screen, which was placed on the table.

Mrs. Lin looked at the embroiderer carefully, "This is a fine Shu embroidery, and the little bamboo girl also said that it was rude, which was so modest." Dong Yuzhen also approached Mrs. Lin and looked at it carefully, "It's true, Xiaozhu, your craftsmanship is awesome." Lin Zhu listened to her praise, his face turned red, and he said embarrassedly: "I'm very clumsy, I don't know how to do this at all, I also use it to borrow flowers and offer Buddha." ”

"Hehe," Mrs. Lin laughed when she heard her words, "You kid is too sincere." Lin Zhu smirked and touched his head. Hey. ”

"Okay, Zhen'er take Xiaozhu to your yard to play, and I'll have someone bring lunch to you later." "Yes, mother." Dong Yuzhen and Lin Zhu saluted Mrs. Lin and turned around to leave. Mother Chang also wanted to follow Lin Zhu out, not wanting Mrs. Lin to stop her, "Can this mother wait a minute." Lin Zhu was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at Mrs. Lin, and then looked at Chang's mother, there was some doubt in her eyes, Chang's mother shook her head slightly at her, signaling that she didn't know what was going on?

However, Lin Zhu still let Chang's mother stay, "Chang's mother, you will stay first, and when Mrs. Lin is finished, you will come to me and Sister Zhen." Lin Zhu's words clearly told Mrs. Lin that Mother Chang had to return to her. Mrs. Lin naturally understood the meaning of Lin Zhu's words, and nodded with a smile.

"Let's go, it's okay, my mother may want to ask about the Shu embroidery, you don't know the way, my mother likes Shu embroidery very much, but I haven't found a good embroidery girl." Dong Yuzhen was afraid that Lin Zhu would not be at ease, so she explained as she walked.

Mother Chang stayed in the flower hall and bowed to Mrs. Lin, "I don't know what Mrs. Lin's instructions are?" "I heard Xiaozhu call you Chang's mother just now, right?" Mrs. Lin asked softly. "Yes, the maiden's husband's surname is Chang." Chang's mother didn't know what she thought or what she saw, so she only said the identity of the person who had discussed it with Lin Zhu.

"Mother Chang doesn't seem to have been with Xiaozhu for a long time?"

"Mrs. Huilin, it's only been about a year." Mother Chang frowned slightly.

"I don't know if Chang's mother would like to come to me and be a personal mother to my family." Mrs. Lin suddenly made a surprising request. Chang's mother was stunned for a moment, and then bent down again, "Thanks to Mrs. Lin, it's just that the woman was saved by my girl, and the grace of saving her life was not repaid, and she wanted to sell herself as a slave, but my girl was kind-hearted, not only did she not ask for the deed of sale of the woman, but let the woman be the housekeeper's mother, how can the woman live up to such kindness?" Please also ask Mrs. Lin for your understanding. ”

"Oh, it looks like I was abrupt. Then let's leave it at that. Mrs. Lin didn't force it, which made Chang's mother feel relieved, but she just wondered if she had entered here and hadn't said a word, how could she let this Mrs. Lin take a fancy to her?" Chang's mother seems to want to know why I did this, right? Mrs. Lin seemed to have a trace of exhaustion on her face. Without waiting for Chang's mother to reply, she continued to talk to herself, "This Song County is too far away from the capital, and even a decent personal mother who understands the rules can't be found." I saw Chang's mother behaving in a good way just now. Xiaozhu's etiquette at a young age seems to be better than Zhen'er, and I think it's because Chang's mother teaches well, so I have this thought. But the twisted melon is not sweet, and it is inconvenient for me to force you more. ”

"Thank you Mrs. Lin for your attention, the folk woman is only superficially knowledgeable, and she deserves such praise from you." Chang's mother is very modest. "Mother Chang doesn't have to be too humble, I just want Zhen'er to go to Xiaozhu to play, you can remind you of the rules. Every year when I go back to Beijing, I always laugh at others, this kid feels very uncomfortable, and I have to think of some ways to be a mother. "Mrs. Lin's status is very embarrassing, she is just a concubine in her mother's family, and she is not valued, and here Dong Zhixian is focused on the Liu family, and her sustenance is all on these children.

The son is very sensible, and she doesn't have to worry about her studies, but this daughter, although the rules and etiquette are the best in Song County, but it is not enough to see it in the capital. Dong Yuzhen is not the kind of person who is very scheming, it is okay to deal with Liu's mother and daughter, and she can also hold up a little face. So Mrs. Lin has been worried about her, and she also wants to find a capable personal mother from the capital, but those famous people will come to this rural place, and Mrs. Lin can't look down on the housekeeping mother who comes out of the ordinary officialdom, she thinks that it is best to come out of the palace, or it must be a personal mother in the palace, such people know the etiquette rules best.

Thank you for the peace charm that the cute Mo rewarded. (To be continued......)
