rushed back to the county town of Tailong all the way, and did not dare to delay on the way, it was so non-stop, and when it arrived, it was seven or eight days away from the New Year's Festival. The car stopped in front of the county guard's house, and in the evening, the main entrance was already holding a festive lantern. Mrs. Tao was at the foot of the stone steps, beckoning a group of servants, and happily greeted her.

The seven girls got out of the carriage and looked up to see the hot stamping plaque hanging high outside the vermilion gate. Because of the Chinese New Year, all places have been cleaned up early, and the lacquered wood of this plaque is polished black and shiny, and the flaming red lanterns are reflected on both sides, showing a new atmosphere. Outside the gate of the mansion, the steward beckoned the people below to carry out the cage from the car, and the entire long street was the most lively place in the county guard's mansion. Looking at it like this, her ears were full of happy greetings, and if she had changed her usual life, she would not have liked such noise. But at this time, it sounded a little disturbing. Familiar faces are all smiling. Looking at it like this, you can really feel the warmth of going home.

After being away from home for so many days, I really arrived at the door of my house, and all kinds of flavors came to my heart. The good and bad, and the bad things that I experienced outside, when I returned home, everything could be left behind. This three-entry courtyard, surrounded by green tiles and red walls on all sides, except for two rooms and one room, is full of peace of mind and harmony.

In the early morning, the inner room was bright, and a quilt embroidered with rich peonies slipped off at the end of the bed. In the carmine gauze tent, the bulging figure turned over, Xu felt the wind under his feet, revealing a small half of the white jade feet and gently hooked it, and the corner of the quilt that was about to hang down on the pedal slipped and shrank back.

The seventh girl curled up in the bed, her buttocks squirmed a few times, and there was no sound.

In the yard, Chunying washed up early and started working. With Cui's mother leading the little girl, Chunying just looked around, and when she returned to the county guard's mansion, she was the most decent big girl in front of the girl, and she didn't need to do many jobs herself. Lu Fu rubbed her eyes and pushed the door out of the ear room. Seeing that Cui's mother and Chunying were there, she immediately put down her hand and put on a look of being in excellent spirits. After saying hello, he waved his hand and summoned the two maids, and went back with her to boil water for the girl.

"Why haven't any of them grown?" Although Cui's mother said this, there was a bit of relief in the corners of her eyes. In the past, the girl of Green Fu jumped out, and in her opinion, there was no time when both feet landed at the same time. Now leading the little girl in front, her waist is like a hemp pole, just look at her fiery back, but she really has a bit of the bearing that a big girl should have.

Chunying was secretly amused, it might as well be so early, but there was a milky cry at the gate of the courtyard. Looking back, yo, the eighth master was lying in the arms of the nurse, his dark eyes looked around, and when he saw Cui's mother, he screamed anxiously. "Looking for my sister!"

Cui's mother sighed and hurriedly went over to say hello to the little master. Chunying followed behind, but saw that the eighth master was raised by his wife to be white and fat, his face was a little opener, and his facial features were three points similar to the girl. Especially those eyes, black and shiny, revealing a clever energy. He wore a garnet-red cotton hat on his head, and his small body was wrapped like a ball. She was very restless in the arms of the nurse, her legs fluttered, and she arched into the arms of Cui's mother, who greeted her.

Cui's mother was overjoyed and hugged him, teasing him on one end and listening to the nurse on the other.

"This master of our family is not very old, but he has a very good memory. I saw the seventh girl last night, and I got a lot of things from the girl, and I was very excited. It's easy to coax me to sleep, but when I got up this morning, I opened my eyes, and I was clamoring for 'Sister'. The paste refused to eat, and the wife bluffed, so he hid in the slave's squeaky nest. It was so much that there was no way to make it, but the adults smiled and let me hug the girl. ”

It is the adult's permission, and the eighth master is the little ancestor of the house, Cui's mother thought about it, hugged the person, and went to the door to see if the girl woke up.

When I got to the porch, I seemed to know that I had found the door, and the little milk doll was crying out more than the talking starling through the closed door. One voice after another, twisting his body and screaming more and more.

The person in the nest drilled out his head, pricked up his ears to listen, confused, and it was easy to understand, this was Jiang Ji's little guy disturbing her dream. got up, asked someone to lead him into the house, and asked Chunying to hurry up and freshen up.

The little guy's temperament doesn't know who to follow. Lord Jiang is elegant, Mrs. is solemn, the second master of the Jiang family is young and old, and she is leisurely and unhurried. The family is all inconspicuous and undewy, but Jiang Ji is the only one who is small and big, and his early wisdom is on the surface, and he especially likes to show off.

So all morning, the peach blossom dock was so lively. The nurse and the little girl who came with the eighth master, seeing the seventh girl disciplining the eighth master, opened their eyes and were completely convinced.

"Sister, feed the fish in the garden." The little hand impatiently flicked away the spoon that the nurse was feeding, and the lips were stained with a circle of white noodles that had dried up with rice soup, Jiang Ji buried his head and pulled the bib under his neck, knowing that the nurse couldn't control him, and he was only worried about playing outside.

The seventh girl raised her eyes, took a bite of the spring cake with minced meat, chewed it slowly, swallowed it, and wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief. "It turns out that Tuan Tuan can only eat so little. I want to come to the fish in the tank like a tuan, and I fed a lot of them last night. "Turned around and explained to Cui's mother, "Don't feed the fish in the next few days, it's broken, and the belly of the fish is turned over, which is a waste." ”

The little guy puffed out his round eyes, and when he heard that the fish was so full that he couldn't feed it anymore, how could this be?! Pulling on her bib, she stared at her. After pondering for a long time, I touched my little belly, and I was still full of words, so I immediately changed my words. "Sister, Tuan Tuan can eat two more spoonfuls." Don't need to be coaxed by the nurse, ah opened her mouth widely. was bluffed into the trap by the seventh girl, thinking that she would eat a few more bites obediently, and the fish would also free up its belly.

"Oh", the seventh girl nodded suddenly, very agreeing, and praised him for being smart. Then put a chopstick in your mouth and freshly steamed glutinous rice cake, which is delicious to use. Eating at home is always very appetizing.

Chunying watched from the sidelines, and saw that the eighth master had been praised by the seventh girl, his eyes were shining, but he stretched his neck and leaned towards the spoon by himself, where was there any impatience before. Chunying was fascinated, and then looked back at the girl, and couldn't help but secretly feel to herself: The seventh girl picked up the eighth master, just like a boiled water painting-really understated.

In the afternoon, the little guy was coaxed to go back to the house to rest, and the seventh girl stretched out her arm, finally understanding that it was not easy for Mrs. Jiang Ji to come. No wonder Mrs. would say that the new one is more troublesome than her and Jiang Yu.

Under the pretext of taking a lunch break, he drove Chunying Lufu and didn't let the house guard. The seventh girl sat on the embroidery stool and took out a thick stack of letters from the dowry box. Flipping it open, his fingertips traced his vigorous handwriting, as if he could still see the man writing by the window, brocade clothes and jade crowns, and his side face contained in the golden light, extremely noble and elegant.

At this moment, he is far away in Yanjing, holding the important position of the left eunuch of the court lieutenant. Shangfeng happened to be the prime minister's confidant and belonged to the Zhu family. King Wen's move was just to muddy the waters with his hand and shake the Zhu family's deep-rooted foundation in the Tingwei Yamen. In the eyes of that king, the family is infighting, and the imperial power has an opportunity to take advantage of.

It is conceivable that King Wen will spare no effort to put pressure on him and make a fuss about the criminal case. And the Zhu family will never give up the fat to others. He was caught in the middle, left and right, and in a precarious situation far from what she could have imagined.

I don't know what the man's condition is now, but the symptoms may recur. She held the letter in her hand, silent, looking at things and thinking about people. Just as he was thinking about it, his brain was caught in the intricate disputes in Yanjing, but he heard Cui's mother in the courtyard with a little surprise and called "Second Master".

Hurriedly put the letter back in a hurry. After straightening out her clothes, she listened to Jiang Yu calling her outside the door.

She squeaked open the door and looked up to see the man staring straight at her. I wanted to speak and stopped, and my expression didn't seem to be very good. With the light on her back, Jiang Yu's eyes were full of gloom that she had never seen before, as if it was cloudy, crows and crows, and there was no light.
