After Shu Chengye came back, the old lady discussed with him for a long time, and finally decided to invite Miao Yue'e to be Mr. for Shu Manyao. This is also for Shu Manyao's sake, although Shu Manyao's temperament is not as cowardly and timid as before, but she is not much cheerful and generous, although Mrs. Ping has good knowledge, but she can speak well, in case she has any thoughts one day, wouldn't she be able to move Shu Manyao in two sentences?

Moreover, learning this kind of thing depends on the knowledge of the teacher on the one hand, but also on the will of the student on the other. If Man Yao doesn't like Mrs. Ping, no matter how good Mrs. Ping's lecture is, Man Yao is afraid that she will not listen to it.

After deciding, the old lady immediately sent someone to send a post to Miao Yue'e, inviting Miao Yue'e to come to the house for a drink, and by the way, let Shu Manyao meet Mr. It's just to see the gentleman, not to the teacher.

Although Miao Yue'e is alone, she still has a lot of feelings for her in-laws' family, in order to show her sincerity, the old lady personally brought a heavy gift, and Shu Manyao went to Li's house together, and gave Mr. Bai a gift, and then made a request - Miao Yue'e wanted to live in Shu's house.

The Li family did not object, and Miao Yue'e also knew about this earlier, so things were completed smoothly.

"Mother, I have asked people to clean up Chunxi Hall, and the main courtyard of Chunxi Garden can be used as a place for Man Yao to study in the future." Xu said with a smile: "In the east wing of Chunxi Garden, I asked people to clean up the bed, and Mr. Miao can live in the east wing." ”

The old lady thought for a while, then nodded and said, "You have placed it very properly, I remember that there is a pair of blue and white porcelain beauty bottles in the warehouse?" You ask people to take it out and send it to the east wing of Chunxi Garden, Mr. Miao's residence must be well furnished, and the elements are more elegant. ”

"Yes, the daughter-in-law knows, and the daughter-in-law also asked someone to take Huang Huali's desk from the treasury and arrange it in the main hall of Chunxi Garden. In addition, this ink, paper, and inkstone were also purchased by others, and the ones that Man Yao used before were to be rewarded to his subordinates? ”

The old lady nodded: "Reward it, those things, Man Yao has not used them for half a year, in case Man Yao remembers the previous things, I am afraid that she will be unhappy." Just reward it in the name of Man Yao, I remember that there are several children in the house who are learning to read, right? ”

Xu hurriedly smiled: "Mother's memory is still so good, there are seven or eight children who are learning to read, and then the daughter-in-law will let people reward them when she goes back." In addition, Mr. Miao is going to live in our house in the future, and the clothes for the four seasons are also wrapped in our house, but the winter clothes in our house have already been distributed, do you want to make a few more clothes for Mr. Miao? ”

"Just do two bodies, I see that Mr. Miao's figure is similar to what I used to be, and there are still a lot of clothes I made in the first two years that I haven't worn, you let people find them out and give them to Mr. Miao." The old lady thought for a while and said, "I remember that I also made a purple sauce dress last year, and I looked young in it, you can find out." ”

Xu Shi responded one by one, and also said: "My daughter-in-law has made three winter coats this year, and one of them is sandal, so let's give it to Mr. Miao." ”

Shu Manyao only listened to the side and didn't speak, while Xu Shi said a few words, so he had to ask Shu Manyao: "What does Manyao think?" ”

Since Shu Manyao overcame his psychological hatred and called out to his mother, Xu's became enthusiastic, and the good image of a stepdaughter who cares about it very much, but doesn't know how to care, is vivid.

Shu Manyao also followed the play, anyway, in this mansion, isn't it just about paying attention to a face? In private, even if you want to eat meat and drink blood, you have to maintain happiness on your face.

What she Shu Manyao wants is not a momentary vent, nor is it just a breath to calm the hatred in her heart, what she wants is for Xu's mother and daughter to taste the suffering she suffered in the previous life in this life, the most unsatisfactory, and it has to be unsatisfactory in the second half of her life, and everything is contrary to their wishes.

Therefore, the temporary compromise is to go back more holy.

"Mother's proposal is very good, I have been in contact with Mr. Miao a few times, and I think Mr. Miao prefers light and elegant colors, and the ink and azure gauze tent is better than the rich and rich flowers." Shu Manyao said with a smile, looking at Xu's clenched fingers, he was very satisfied.

"The weather is getting colder and colder, the ink and azure ......" Xu hesitated a little, and turned his head to look at the old lady: "I'm afraid it's too thin, since Mr. Miao doesn't like flowers to bloom and be rich, why don't you change to a magpie and a plum?" The intention is good, and the plum blossoms on it must be in line with Mr. Miao's thoughts. ”

It's just that the material is a little worse than the ink azure, and it's almost the same as the rich and prosperous flowers.

The old lady also responded, and said two or three more things, and the Xu family mentioned the matter of the Zuo family: "Mrs. Zuo sent someone to send a post, and it will be Mrs. Zuo's birthday banquet in three days, I want to take Manyao and the three sisters together, what do you think?" ”

"Aren't all the clothes and jewelry ready?" The old lady leaned back on the soft pillow and said, "Take their sisters with you." The Zuo family is also a famous family, when you arrive at the Zuo family, you need to pay attention from time to time, and there must be no rudeness. It's just that you can't look down on yourself too much, and our Shu family is not a small family. ”

"Yes, my daughter-in-law understands." Xu hurriedly responded.

Three days later, in the morning, when he was greeting the old lady, Xu said that the carriage was ready and would leave in a while. Shu Manyao and her sisters went back to dress up again, and Shu Manyao looked at the jewelry box on the table, which contained the set of peony jewelry sent by Xu's a few days ago.

"Girl, what kind of clothes do you want to wear?" Xia Xi asked on the side, the old lady gave the fabric before, and the three of them each made two clothes, Shu Manyao was apricot red and primrose, which matched the set of jewelry.

"The primrose-colored one." Shu Manyao thought for a while and said, although she has two lifetimes of experience, it is not impossible for her to suppress the peony hairpin in her momentum, but she was cowardly and timid in the first thirteen years of her life, and she basically never left the house, plus although her appearance is beautiful, she is a little weak, and she is not that kind of flamboyant, so I am afraid that the apricot red color is not good.

Peony flowers can be both graceful and gorgeous.

Xia Xi is much more obedient now, so she hurriedly married a primrose-colored dress, and served Shu Manyao with Dong Dusk.

"Girl, did the slave bring Jing Chun and Jing Xia to follow?" After changing her clothes, Xia Xi asked again, Shu Manyao nodded: "Let Jingchun bring the apricot-red clothes, as well as the one-colored one before, and bring the jasper jewelry." ”

After a pause, he said: "Winter twilight, guard our yard, no matter who comes in, you have to watch carefully, if you want to go out, you must also take a closer look when you come back, don't let people bring in any mess." ”

Xia Xi was suddenly shocked: "Girl, Madame may ...... today"

"I don't know what she had in mind." Shu Manyao shook his head: "But be prepared." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Jing Dong outside said: "Girl, Madame, second girl, and third girl, they have all gone to the old lady's house. ”

Shu Manyao nodded and brought Xia Xi out. After entering the main courtyard, the old lady gave a few more instructions, and then Xu took them out.

"Man Yao, I'm afraid it's too crowded for your sisters to sit in a car, you and Man Jin sit together, and I sit with Man Yu, what do you think?" When he arrived at the gate of the inner courtyard, Xu asked with a smile, he would not be reluctant to face Xu Shu Manyao.

After getting into the car, Shu Manjin looked left and right, and smiled gently: "Big sister, there is nothing to do along the way, why don't we play a game of chess?" ”

Shu Manyao shook his head: "I don't have any research on this black and white chess piece. ”

Shu Manjin was slightly worried on his face: "However, today, the sister of the Zuo family may let everyone play chess, the ...... who composed poetry last time" said, secretly glanced at Shu Manyao's expression, and saw that she was just frowning slightly, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

The Shu Manyao in front of him, I'm afraid he has really changed his temperament.

"But don't be afraid, if there is something wrong with the sister of the Zuo family at that time, you won't be the eldest sister, and the younger sister can find an excuse to go outside with the eldest sister." Shu Manjin smiled and patted Shu Manyao's hand comfortingly: "The eldest sister has not been to the Zuo family for many years, I'm afraid I don't remember the appearance of the Zuo family. ”

Shu Manyao nodded indifferently, turned his head and looked at the curtains, at this time the carriage had probably arrived on the main road, and there were various sounds around, walking, riding, and shouting. After listening for a while, Shu Manyao closed his eyes, if it was really a lady who had never been out, he was extremely curious about these outside.

It's just that after reading a lifetime, these can no longer arouse her curiosity.

Shu Manjin looked at Shu Manyao, who was silent, and also leaned on the cushion, took a book from under the table and slowly flipped through it.

Lord Zuo's official position is higher than Shu Chengye's, the Zuo family's house is also much better than the Shu family's current house, the two stone lions at the gate are extremely majestic, the vermilion gate is open at this time, the stone gate below has been removed, a mother-in-law jumped down from the back carriage, stepped forward to show the doorkeeper at the door the post, and then, the Shu family's carriage was driven directly into the house.

After getting out of the carriage, two mothers-in-law greeted them and saluted Xu's with a smile: "Mrs. Shu is here, but our wife has been looking forward to it for a long time, so she asked the slaves and maids to prepare the Lu'an tea that Mrs. Shu likes." ”

"Really? It's still the sister of the Zuo family who thinks about me. Xu smiled, took the mother-in-law's hand, turned sideways, and saw that Shu Manyao and the others also got out of the carriage, and then followed the mother-in-law to the inner courtyard.

The mother-in-law who followed behind looked at Shu Manyao, raised her hand to beckon a maid, and whispered a few words before she followed.
