Chapter 26: Confused

Lots of people? Zeng Zhixian's eyebrows furrowed slightly, Zeng Zhiwu was about to reach out for a snack, but when he saw his sister frowning, he hurriedly said: "Sister, shouldn't you listen to those words, shouldn't say them, sister, I won't listen to them in the future, never say them again!" ”

The younger brother made Zeng Zhixian even more pitiful in this way, and picked up a piece of dim sum and put it in his hand: "Although the sage said, the outside is incompatible, and the inside is not incompatible." However, my father often said before his death that everything in the world is an article. My sister doesn't want you to know anything, but she doesn't want you to be as oily as a marketer. ”

These few short sentences made Zeng Zhiwu frown, and then nodded: "Sister, I know, I just want to understand what I should know and what I shouldn't know." I also know more about things in the market, and I also know more about things in the backyard, not just reading, and I can't talk nonsense like those little guys! ”

"Brother Wu is so smart, hurry up and eat snacks to pad your stomach, there will be a while for dinner!" Zeng Zhiwu was praised by his sister, his eyes couldn't help narrowing, and he took a big bite of the snack in his hand, Zeng Zhixian looked at his younger brother, and his eyes began to smile, children who have lost their fathers and mothers should know more, rather than being protected by their parents very well.

"Miss, Sister Red Shirt is here!" Yanran approached Zeng Zhixian and said softly, Yanran didn't say please, the red shirt had already lifted the curtain and walked in, Yanran gave it to Zeng Zhixian, and the green bell couldn't stay, and Mrs. Zeng chose two other maids, one called the red shirt and the other called Cui Sleeve, to make up for Yanran's nest.

The red shirt is sixteen this year, and she has been doing some errands in the Zhao family's yard, and she doesn't know how the old lady Zeng fell in love with her, and she has a round face, and she is not so proud because she came to the old lady Zeng, and when she saw Zeng Zhixian, she saluted first and said: "The old lady ordered the eldest lady to come over and talk!" ”

It's not dinner yet, so why invite yourself to talk? It's still so precious, let the big girl around you come and invite? Zeng Zhixian was a little strange, but he still let Yuejuan look at Zeng Zhiwu, and took Yanran to the upper room by himself.

As soon as he entered the upper room, Zeng Zhixian saw that there were people in the upper room, and he became more and more suspicious, so he stepped forward to salute Mrs. Zeng, who had already taken her hand and smiled at the people beside her: "Mrs. in-laws, this is my granddaughter!" ”

can be called the wife of the in-laws, I am afraid that it is Shi An's aunt or mother, Zeng Zhixian was caught off guard, his face couldn't help but blush, but he couldn't be petty, and saluted vaguely: "My niece has seen my aunt, aunt An!" ”

Mrs. Shi hurriedly picked up Zeng Zhixian, took her hand and looked at it, Zeng Zhixian felt more and more hot on his face, but he didn't dodge it, and lowered his face and let Mrs. Shi look at him. Mrs. Shi looked at it enough before she praised Mrs. Zeng: "This granddaughter of the old lady is so dignified and generous, the old lady is really blessed!" ”

Mrs. Zeng asked Zeng Zhixian to sit down beside her, and then said to Mrs. Shi: "My daughter's family, if she lands, she is someone else's family, and this blessing will not be left in my house for many days!" There seems to be a mystery in this, Zeng Zhixian wanted to stir the handkerchief on his hand, but he felt that he was so stingy, and he still sat there according to the rules.

"The old lady laughs, this blessing, your family and my family are not the same!" Mrs. Shi's words made Zeng Zhixian's heart reassured, but he still didn't move. Old Madam Zeng also smiled: "Mrs. Shi's words, I am relieved." This child is now fatherless and motherless, and in the future, please ask Mrs. to love her more! Mrs. Shi smiled and said definitely.

"Sister, that lady seems to be my uncle's aunt!" Guo'er whispered to Yanran again, and Yanran pulled Guo'er's sideburns together: "You, you like to talk about this, you have to learn how to serve the old lady, this is the most important thing!" ”

Guo'er nodded, Yanran was suddenly hit on the shoulder, Yanran thought it was a maid playing with her, and looked up to see Zeng Zhiqing standing there with a smile, still playing with a fan in his hand, Yanran and Guo'er talked, picking a secluded corner in the back, how could Zeng Zhiqing appear here? Yan Ran thought that something was wrong, and she was infinitely annoyed, but she still had to return Zeng Zhiqing's rules, and hurriedly got up: "Shizi, why did you come quietly?" The old lady and the eldest lady are talking to the guests in front! ”

"I know that the guest in front of me is Shihou's wife, this time, the eldest sister's marriage will never run away, eldest sister, you should thank me!" Zeng Zhiqing said with a smile, sitting where Yanran and the others were sitting, Yanran's eyebrows couldn't help frowning: "Shizi, you are not young, there are other things inside and outside, you still have to ......"

"I said Yanran, why are you getting more and more pedantic? Listening to you, who knew you weren't a young girl, and thought you were an old man in your seventies and eighties! It's not hot now, but Zeng Zhiqing still opened the fan in his hand and looked at Yanran with the fan.

Yan Ran's face turned red, and she suddenly pulled Guo'er forward: "Guo'er, go to the front to report the news, just say that the prince wants to come to meet Mrs. Shi!" Guo'er was almost stunned when she saw Zeng Zhiqing, this is the son of the world, how can Sister Yanran speak to him a little politely, hearing Yanran's words, Guo'er sighed and was about to go forward.

Zeng Zhiqing stopped Guo'er: "Hey, don't go forward, I'm here to find your sister Yanran!" Guo'er's eyes suddenly widened, looking for Sister Yanran, the meaning of these words is different.

Yan Ran was anxious to stomp her feet, although she knew that Zeng Zhiqing's words had no other meaning, but the same words were different in the ears of different people. So Yanran said quickly: "Shizi, I will definitely serve the eldest lady well, and I will never let the eldest lady leak!" ”

It's not interesting, Zeng Zhiqing looked at Yan Ran, Yan Ran tried to stay calm, but the roots of his ears were still a little red, Zeng Zhiqing smiled again, and took out a few gold bills from his purse from his waist and threw them into Guo'er's hand: "Take it and play, I have nothing else to do with your sister Yanran!" ”

Although Guo'er took those gold bills, she still didn't know what to say, Zeng Zhiqing had already sighed: "Originally, I was thinking that since the eldest sister's matter is already safe, I want to discuss it with others, otherwise it will be like a brocade night walk, who knows that Yanran is so pedantic, it's just that." You're right, I'm so old, and I won't look for you casually in the future! ”

After speaking, Zeng Zhiqing put his hand behind his back, sighed and shook his head and left, seeing that his back was sad, Yanran wanted to step forward to comfort him, but as soon as he stepped out, he felt that something was wrong, so he shrank back. Guo'er held the gold coin and didn't know what to do: "Sister, these ......"

"Since the prince rewarded you, you can play with it!" Guo'er snorted, and Yanran took her hand: "Let's go ahead, I'm afraid that the eldest lady and the old lady should also finish speaking, prepare for them to call!" "Although there are people guarding the door, and when they call, someone comes to call them, but they can only talk for a while. Guo'er nodded understandingly, and when she was about to walk forward, Guo'er finally couldn't help but speak: "Sister Yanran, how do I think that the prince is a little different from you and others, will you be in the future?" ”

"No, fruit, never, I won't!" Although Guo'er didn't ask, Yanran still answered categorically. Guo'er also nodded, but after nodding, she couldn't help but say: "Sister, but we are subordinates, if the prince really likes you when the time comes, you can't ...... it."

The two words of refusal only turned on Guo'er's tongue, and he didn't dare to say it, Yanran's eyebrows frowned slightly and smiled: "This life is so long, who said that it must be here for a lifetime?" Guo'er was mistaken, and nodded with her: "That's right, my sister will follow the eldest lady out of the cabinet in the future, and she won't be in this life!" ”

Following the eldest lady out of the pavilion, Yan Ran sighed in her heart, it seemed that she was not willing, but where the future was, Yan Ran was a little confused.

Mrs. Shihou has come, Zeng Zhixian's life has returned to calm, and what should be done now is to marry after keeping filial piety. The embroidery work that should be done should also be embroidered with stitches and threads. Time passed, and the smile on Zeng Zhixian's face gradually increased, and the days always had to go on, and the sadness would slowly decrease.

Mrs. Zeng sent a list, which was all for Zeng Zhixian, in addition to a shop and a 200-acre Zhuangzi, there were also 500 taels of silver, which was almost 3,000 taels, Zeng Zhixian knew that this was an extra dowry for Mrs. Zeng to herself. Although she is not a grandmother, her grandmother has done this, and there is no word to say.

Since Mrs. Zeng treats each other like this, Zeng Zhixian also has to repay the favor, Mrs. Zeng lacks nothing, all Zeng Zhixian can do is to make a few needles and threads for her.

"Yanran, look, how is this embroidery? The flowers are rich and rich, and I don't know if my grandmother likes it or not? Zeng Zhixian was holding a bead hoop in his hand and asked Yan Ran, Yan Ran took it and smiled: "The eldest lady's needlework is getting better and better, as long as the eldest lady embroiders it, why doesn't the old lady like it?" ”

"How can my needlework catch up with you? You're really good at needlework! Zeng Zhixian pursed his lips and smiled, and his smile did not change: "This is true, last year I accompanied the old lady to the Zheng family as a guest, and the old lady of the Zheng family wore what her granddaughter made, the old lady didn't say it, and talked to us for a long time on the way back, saying that the second lady is impatient, and you are far away, and I don't know when I will be able to wear the needle and thread made by my granddaughter." I guess, Miss, you send it over, and the old lady will wear it out to show off! ”

Zeng Zhixian smiled again, packed up the bead hoop, and sent it over with Yanran, and sent it to Mrs. Zeng was naturally very happy, and immediately put it on her head, looked left and right in the mirror, and when she was happy, Zhao hurriedly walked in, and said to Mrs. Zeng: "Just now Shifu came to report the funeral, saying that Master Shihou is gone!" ”
