"The Son of the World is here!" The little maid said by the door, and then opened the curtain, Zeng Zhiqing walked in, he was dressed in filial piety clothes, and his face became more and more white. Zeng Zhixian immediately stood up to greet him: "Hello, big brother!" ”

"Big sister doesn't need to be so polite! I've been thinking about my eldest sister.,Listen to the eldest sister is sick.,I'm going to come here after school today.,Now look.,The eldest sister's face is fine.。 Is the seventh brother in it? Zeng Zhiqing said in his mouth, but he didn't move, although the two of them were not married, they were still children, but the woman's boudoir was not something that could be entered casually.

"Sister Yuejuan, are you going to see if Brother Wu'er is awake?" After speaking, Zeng Zhixian said to Zeng Zhiqing: "Thank you, big brother, for remembering." Although our brother and sister don't see each other much, I've been thinking about my eldest brother! ”

The more he said this, the more polite he became, Zeng Zhixian originally wanted to be more affectionate to Zeng Zhiqing, but when he saw Zeng Zhiqing, he thought of his eldest brother, and his heart became more and more sore, so he had to endure the pain and socialize with Zeng Zhiqing. Zeng Zhiqing also understood why he came, and took the tea brought by Yanran and said, "It turns out that grandmother gave Yanran to my sister." Yanran is the most useful person around her grandmother, which proves that her grandmother loves her eldest sister very much! ”

The two were still talking about those clichés, Zeng Zhiwu had already rubbed his eyes and walked out, Zeng Zhiqing said with a smile: "Seventh brother, I am your eldest brother!" Zeng Zhiwu slept in a daze, and when he heard the words of the eldest brother, he looked up at Zeng Zhixian: "Sister, isn't my brother already ......?"

"This is the eldest brother of the uncle's family, you didn't remember when you went to work with your father, and it was inevitable that you wouldn't remember!" Zeng Zhixian said that he asked his younger brother to give Zeng Zhiqing a gift. So that's the case, Zeng Zhiwu nodded and stepped forward to salute Zeng Zhiqing, Zeng Zhiqing helped him, and asked a few more words before saying: "Actually, it's my grandmother's side that passed dinner, I specially asked for this errand to invite my eldest sister, who knows that my sister won't play with me!" ”

When Zeng Zhixian was in this mansion, he was close to Zeng Zhiqing in age, and the brothers and sisters got along quite well, but they didn't see each other for several years, but when they returned, their circumstances changed. Zeng Zhixian is an orphan daughter whose parents died and can only rely on her grandmother, and Zeng Zhiqing is still the phoenix egg of this Hou Mansion, and the head of the Hou Mansion on another day.

Zeng Zhixian heard this, and his heart ached even more, but after his father passed away, and the third uncle said something again, Zeng Zhixian became more and more careful in doing things, and said softly: "At that time, I was young and not taboo, but now it is different after all!" ”

These words made Zeng Zhiqing feel gloomy, and he wanted to comfort her a few words: "The people in this mansion are looking forward to your return." Sister, you don't need to feel that you are under the fence, your surname is Zeng, you are a member of the Zeng family, and you are also a member of this Hou Mansion! ”

"Thank you, brother!" Zeng Zhixian only replied with such a sentence, Zeng Zhiqing couldn't help but sigh slightly, after all, it was different. The little girl who smiled happily in her memory and liked to play with the lattice has become the girl in front of her who is a little pale and weak.

While their brother and sister were talking, they had already walked into the upper room, and Mrs. Zeng was talking to Zeng Zhimin there, and when she saw Zeng Zhixian walking in, she greeted her: "Come, come and sit next to me!" Zeng Zhixian should be, before he walked to Mrs. Zeng's side, Zeng Zhimin had already pouted: "Grandmother, I have always sat beside you!" ”

"That's because your sister didn't come back, this young and old. Your sister, who is older than you, should sit next to your grandmother. You go over there and sit down! Zeng Zhimin's small mouth pursed higher, and Zeng Zhixian hurriedly said: "This is also in the inner room, grandmother should let Sister Min sit next to you!" ”

"Even though it's an inner room, there are some things that you have to teach from an early age! In this family, your sisters are in harmony and let her, and when you go outside, do you still expect others to let her fail? Mrs. Zeng's words made Zeng Zhixian sit down again, Zeng Zhiqing had already sat on Mrs. Zeng's left hand, and said to Zeng Zhimin: "Remember or not, the young and old are orderly." You used to be young, so naturally let you go one by one, but now that you're older, you can't let it! ”

Zeng Zhimin pursed his lips, wanted to cry but didn't dare to cry, so he sat down obediently. Mrs. Zeng eats, she doesn't like others to serve, the maids only make a few chopsticks at the beginning, and at other times they all stand with their hands down, waiting for the master to summon.

After a while, the cup and plate were removed, and Mrs. Zeng took her grandchildren to chat, and only then did a maid walk in: "Aunt Wu's grandmother asked someone to ask, saying that the eldest lady and the seventh master have used the meal, if they have used it, I want to ask the eldest lady and the seventh master to go over and say a few words!" ”

This is the sorrow of concubines, even if they want to talk to their own grandchildren, they must first look at the eyes of the main room. Yanran stood there, pondering in her heart, but she felt that someone was looking at her, and when she looked up, she saw that it was Zeng Zhiqing who glanced at her.

Originally, Yan Ran would have thought carefully about what Zeng Zhiqing meant by this glance, but now, Yan Ran didn't think about it at all, she had become Zeng Zhixian's maid, and she was no longer Mrs. Zeng's maid, which was two different things from the original.

Qing Deng saw that Zeng Zhiqing and Yanran exchanged a look, and his chin couldn't help but raise slightly, shameless, at this time, he still wanted to seduce the prince. It's also thanks to her that she came up with it, fortunately, the old lady was not confused and gave her to Zeng Zhixian, otherwise, who knows what she would do!

Old Mrs. Zeng had already asked Yuejuan to take Zeng Zhixian's sister and brother to see Aunt Wu, and said with a smile to Yanran: "Come and hammer my old man's legs, I'm so old, my legs and feet are not good!" Yanran stepped forward, and Mrs. Zeng asked Zeng Zhiqing to greet the Zhao family, and there were only a few people left in the house.

Mrs. Zeng said to Yanran: "I knew that you were a good boy, go to the eldest lady's side, and help me take good care of the eldest lady!" Yan Ran should be the second to say: "Serve the master, this is what you have to do!" ”

Old Madam Zeng nodded with satisfaction: "You are really the same as your grandmother, you are a child with good character!" If it is someone else, go from me to the eldest lady, the eldest lady is now an orphan girl, I am afraid that she will already complain about the sky and think about changing it out! ”

"Such foolish people, old lady, what do you think they are doing?" When Qing Zhong heard the first sentence of Mrs. Zeng, her heart was infinitely happy, saying this, Yanran could not return to Mrs. Zeng's side, but was by Zeng Zhixian's side, and she might have to accompany Zeng Zhixian to marry to Shifu in the future.

Who knew that Old Madam Zeng said the latter sentence again, her heart was pounding, if she didn't let Old Madam Zeng and Yanran say it, she didn't know what she would say. Qing Zhong hurriedly smiled and said: "Sister Yanran's mouth is so coincidental, I don't know who is a fool in this room!" ”

"I think you're a fool!" Old Madam Zeng didn't follow Qingdang's words, but came directly. Such a simple and rude thing is too inconsistent with Mrs. Zeng's usual temperament, Yanran's hand stopped there and looked at Mrs. Zeng, her eyes were wide open, there seemed to be something wrong with this.

Qingdang had already knelt down: "Old lady, there is something wrong with the slave maid, and I hope that the old lady will give me advice!" "Fingering? Old Madam Zeng smiled faintly: "You don't lack someone to guide you, you, you, Qingdang, you are seventeen years old this year, at this age, Mu Se Sichun is also a common thing, wait a few days, you can go out!" ”

"Old lady!" Qingdang's face had changed sharply: "Old lady, Sister Ziling just went out, Sister Yanran went to the eldest lady again, and now you let me go out again, who will serve you?" ”

"There are so many people in this family who want to come to serve by my side that I can't remember how many they are. Qingdang, you have to remember that in this family, there will never be a shortage of people like you! Qingdang had already fallen to the ground, trying to make one last redemption: "Old lady, the slave maid doesn't understand, what did the slave and maid do wrong?" ”

"Don't you understand? Qingdang, what kind of double reed are you singing with Zhao today, I can't see it? I'm old, but I'm not confused. Qingdang, you are a smart person, why are you confused now? ”

Qing Deng took two steps forward and hugged Old Madam Zeng's thigh: "Old Madam, the slave maid is also to serve you well!" "Really? Old Madam Zeng looked at her coldly: "Since you are so loyal, then listen to me and go out." I gave you twenty taels of silver according to Ziling's example, as for my mother-in-law's family? I'll let Lao Wang's pick one for you. You won't be at a loss! ”

What's the point of marrying someone like that for the rest of your life? Qingdang looked at Mrs. Zeng with a desperate face, turning her hands into clouds and covering her hands into rain, this is the intention of the masters. Qing Deng thought about this clearly, raised his head and glared at Yan Ran viciously, it was her, it was her, if she hadn't come to Mrs. Zeng's side, how could she have fallen to such a point?

Yan Ran's hand was still clenched into a fist and pounding the old lady Zeng's leg, and she didn't move for a long time, until she felt the green bell glaring at her fiercely, Yan Ran raised her eyes and glanced at her, her eyes were calm and waveless, nothing.

"Don't blame Yanran, this has nothing to do with her. Qingdang, your heart is too big! In fact, there is nothing about having a big heart, but who can serve the master closely, who is not big-hearted? It's just that no matter how big your heart is, you must remember that you are a maid, not a master! ”

Mrs. Zeng's words were like a knife, cutting the heart of the old lady, and the old lady looked at the old lady Zeng, and knelt down again to kowtow to the old lady Zeng: "Slave, slave, I know!" After speaking, Qingdang closed his eyes, not daring to look at Old Madam Zeng.

Old Madam Zeng sighed and felt tired, after all, she was old, and she couldn't compare to when she was young before, and her look made Old Madam Zeng soften her heart for a moment, but this softness quickly disappeared. Yanran continued to beat Mrs. Zeng's legs, and the green bell knelt for a while, and then stood up, but her face was a little pale, and she was no longer as proud as before.

"Sister, who is this old aunt?" Coming out of Aunt Wu's room, Zeng Zhiwu asked her sister curiously, just now Aunt Wu took the hands of their brother and sister, and didn't say anything, just tears. Even if you want to say it, what can you say? Every word is just sad!
