Chapter 27: Envy

On the fourth day of July, Zhoujia Courtyard in Fengjin County.

On the third pole of the sun, a grape stall hung down with fat green leaves, and the tendons and leaves were woven into a fairly dense rattan net to cast a shadow, and a few cicadas screamed from nowhere, showing boredom.

On the small stone table under the shade of greenery, several people sit or stand together, and it is rare to be at ease.

"It's out of gas!" , a three- or four-year-old little male doll clenched his small fists, and his little dough-like face was full of frustration.

"It's okay, start again!" Another older boy sitting opposite him stretched out his hand and picked up a white piece that had just fallen on the chessboard, smiled kindly, and pulled out a sunspot from the pear chess jar in front of the little boy opposite and put it on the chessboard again.

"Brother Huai, if you closed the door and ate like this just now, I would have lost...... Look, isn't it fun to twist a sheep's head like this......"

Zhou Manyun took Xiao Man's hand and stood quietly not far from the flower stand, listening to the fairy tale of chess, and became fascinated.

The world is stable, for the scholarly family, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting is a game, from childhood to adulthood to play, as long as not stupid or stupid, they will be more or less anything, become a famous style in the eyes of the world, and then specialized, it is more sought after.

Zhou Manyun in his previous life also learned that there were still people in the world who were five or six years old at the same age who played with the content of chopping wood and planting vegetables, cooking soup and rice, and even pulling out knives to kill people......

Standing on the side, Xiao Man didn't know why Man Yun didn't move, but he didn't move, he only turned sideways slightly, and raised a fan in his hand to cover Man Yun's half-slanted sun.

It seems like a dream, even if you wake up, you still don't feel solid about everything that exists in front of you. Zhou Manyun's eyelashes flashed twice, and he secretly twisted his own arm, feeling pain.

Zhou Shen, who was half a year older than him, was playing chess with Zhou Huai, who was three and a half years old, and Zhou Manyin, a six-year-old fifth cousin, was sitting in the middle with her elbows and cheeks and staring intently at Yiping of black and white, and the old woman who leaned half a body and only sat on half a chair and looked at the children with a smile was the old white aunt who committed suicide when her grandfather died two years later.

In the previous life, a few of them had turned into pale names early, alive in front of them, smiling and smiling, vivid and natural.

A light mist appeared under Zhou Manyun's eyes, and he couldn't help but turn his head and take a deep look at the closed door of the west chamber.

There are mothers there, and the mothers who sent themselves mercilessly out just now were Du Shi, Zhu's mother, and Bai Lu.

In the morning, it was Bai Lu who waited for Zhou Manyun to get up and dress. Seeing that Man Yun's confused eyes had just cleared and froze, Bai Lu pinched her little nose urgently.

Bai Lu came to Zhou's house with Zhu's mother, who came back with Manyun the day before, along with her husband and a bunch of people in that small courtyard. The apparent reason was that he was about to visit the old master in Jiangnan, and when he heard that the Zhou family was still staying in Fengjin, he ran away.

Regarding the false Taoist priest's false words and warnings, how Du Xuanshuang explained to the fourth uncle in the front yard, Zhou Manyun didn't know, and he couldn't know.

Because just when Bai Lu was about to open his mouth to return to the Du family, Zhou Manyun, who wanted to eavesdrop on the side, was swept out of the house by his mother.

"Sister Yun is still a child!" , the fact emphasized by the mother's mouth made Zhou Manyun a little frustrated.

The soul who was determined to be ruthless in the dream couldn't control the body of the toddler who would naturally lie in bed, and Du Shi also made it clear that because Man Yun suddenly fainted outside the day before, she would no longer condone Sister Yun'er to mix with the "adults".

"Sister Yun, come here! Don't bask in the yard! Aunt Bai stepped forward with a smile on her face, took Man Yun's hand, and led Man Yun to the stone table where several children gathered, while asking some questions about eating, drinking, and resting.

Xiao Man respectfully answered the questions one by one, and Zhou Manyun, who followed in tow, was only responsible for being in a daze.

"The sixth sister slept until the hour before getting up? True...... It's ......", accompanied by a glutinous voice, the little girl's soft little hand covered Manyun's hand.

Six-year-old Zhou Manyin's face is three or four points similar to Man Yun, with the same melon seed face, more delicate eyebrows and eyes, and his forehead hair naturally forms a small beauty tip, and his smile is also gentle.

But the meaning in these words was different, and Zhou Manyun raised her eyes in some surprise to look at the girl who was holding her hand.

Sure enough, the pair of eyes in front of him were full of envy, and Zhou Manyun secretly smiled desolate in his heart.

Zhou Manyin quickly glanced at Aunt Bai, saw that she was still talking about trivial matters with Xiao Man, and then looked at Man Yun, who had turned around and greeted the two brothers with a smile, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The sourness inadvertently brought out in the words just now was not noticed by others, but Zhou Manyin knew that he was really envious of this little cousin.

The same is due to the danger of dying of illness, and her own illness is just a little better, Aunt Bai urges her to work and rest on time, and she is calm and quiet to the elders, and she talks about the rules, but Zhou Manyun can do whatever she wants, and there are no taboos.

In the final analysis, it's just that he doesn't have a good body like Zhou Manyun, and the difference between a son-in-law and a concubine is very different. Zhou Manyin sighed lightly, slowly sat down next to Manyun, and leaned over with his little head, with a bright face and a clear voice.

Who envy whom? The fifth sister in front of her reminded Man Yun of Zhou Manyun, who had secretly peeked at everyone around her with envious eyes in her previous life. Regardless of whether it is those arrogant or arrogant heroines, or the girls who call Li Qiuxiang or Wang Dani, no matter how noble or poor, they are all more comfortable than a woman who doesn't even dare to say her own surname.

At the very least, they are vividly living under their own names, proving their existence in this world.

And Zhou Manyun, who lives in this life and remembers the events of the previous life, is even more pure and a monster, he can't really be as innocent and pure as a child, but he is not completely strange, and he can have a few more demonic powers that can change his life and change his luck!

Zhou Manyun, who was full of worries, laughed with a few children, with a ball of joy on his face, bitterness in his heart, and a pair of big eyes covering the plug and quietly looking around.

When he saw Zhou Tan, who had a solemn face, hurriedly walked into the hanging flower door between the inner and outer courtyards, and went straight to Mrs. Zhou's upper room, Zhou Manyun stood up suddenly.

"Sixth sister! Sister, there is your favorite ...... a few days ago", Zhou Manyin happily turned out a tangram chain from the red rattan basket in front of him, and held it in his hand before handing it forward, and suddenly his face turned red. She was about to deliberately curry favor with her sixth sister Manyun, but she walked to the other side of the flower stand in three steps and two steps, ignoring her words.

Zhou Manyin turned his head to look at the two little brothers who were playing, his eyes darkened, and he slowly put down the things in his hand.

Under this green vine, the most unbearable thing is my little concubine! Manyin's immature little shoulders shook slightly, and then she was firmly held by a pair of hands, and she looked up at her grandmother, Aunt Lao Bai, whose eyes were dark red when they were both old and young.

Zhou Manyun didn't notice the fifth sister's careful thoughts behind her at all, she looked at the upper room that had been lowered the curtain again, and her little hands repeatedly rolled a young leaf that had been torn off, looking at it......

Even though the weather is hot and dry, Mrs. Zhou's room, who wants to recuperate, is still tightly covered.

Under the unopened window, two bronze gilt ice basins are half piled with jade snow, and a furnace of fragrance lingers beside it, which is obviously luxurious and strange in summer.

Zhou Tan stood with his hands down, staring at the longevity peach that Magu was holding on the screen, and did not dare to move half a point.

After waiting for a while, Mrs. Zhou's voice rang out leisurely, and said, "So, those people from the Du family want to follow us to Jiangnan?" ”

"Yes! Mother! ”

"Hmmm! After all, it's the family of Du's family, but it's going to be arranged! Mrs. Zhou bit the word Du heavily. Although a few of them have also been in the Zhou family with their daughter-in-law Du for nearly ten years, after Luojing City forced the Du family to disperse, those people have no relationship with the Zhou family.

But obviously, Zhou Tan, the concubine born through the belly, was less careful to observe his mother's intentions.

Zhou Tan straightened up with relief, and replied softly: "Back to my mother, there are already some servants in the front yard, but they are also loose, and the room can still be lived in after the adjustment." ”

For Zhou Tan, who had been defending for a few days, it was a rare good thing that a few more people could be called in the Zhou family's courtyard, especially at night, especially after listening to Du Xuanshuang's speculation that there might be fugitives who would cause trouble in the county if they were coaxed from Forgotten Words.

The official is not successful, and he will talk about it with the speculation of a rough carved peach, no matter whether anyone in Zuihou has to rob the prison or not, the first thing the Zhou family wants to explain is the source of the news.

If in the past, Zhou Tan, who was the son of an official family, had confidence, but now that his father and brother are in Luojing Prison, he doesn't have the courage to do much.

Regarding this news, Zhou Tan also weighed the report in front of Mrs. Zhou.

Without mentioning the lie that Mrs. Zhou estimated that she had cursed the eight generations of her ancestors, she only said that Du Xuanshuang and Bai Lu were on the way to Fengjin, and they saw that there were victims in several states and counties north of Pingzhou who fled to Fengjin in the south.

"Mother! Now I am afraid that the victims will flood into the city, and there will be some thieves who steal chickens and dogs. There is enough firewood and rice at home, I think these days I still restrain the people who go out to buy, look at the situation, and then think about moving to Pingzhou Mansion ......", Zhou Tan honestly said his own plans, respectfully.

Mrs. Zhou leaned on the head of the bed with her eyes closed, and the emerald ring on her well-maintained hand glowed with a dark green glow, as quiet as her mind.

After thinking about it again and again, she gently patted the eldest grandmother Xie who was sitting on the edge of the bed, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law lowered their voices and communicated carefully, and Xie raised her voice and explained some things to Zhou Tan on behalf of her mother-in-law.

Watching Zhou Tan Shili exit the door, Mrs. Zhou let out a long sigh.

"Qiu Rong! You see, the fourth child has been taken around by that old man to visit monks and Taoists all these years, and what kind of person he has become......"

Zhou Xian raised Zhou Tan and didn't care, anyway, it is not uncommon for this kind of waste material concubine to know a few more words than a slave in the intersecting clan. The key one that was damaged by the old thing is the fifth son Zhou Zhe, who was born to his own son.

Mrs. Zhou was so angry that she beat her chest, and then took her daughter-in-law Xie's hand.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quietly agreed, and it didn't take long for the servant woman to take another errand out of the courtyard.

In the afternoon, two small blue sedan chairs stopped at the small corner door in the back garden, and the group went out to get on the sedan chair and went to the county office.
