Xu Jiayi glanced in the direction of Wang Yunxiu's finger, and couldn't help but gasp, "Auntie, did you bring all the account books of Shangshu Mansion over the past few years for you to practice?" ”

"That's right, the accounts of the past three years in the house are here, and my mother wants me to finish them all within this month." Wang Yunxiu nodded weakly, took a sip of the teacup, "In the past, I saw that my mother handled things in an orderly manner and was not in a hurry, but now I know that it is not easy to be in charge." The purchase in the house, the exchanges of favors, the trivial matters in the Zhuangzi and the shop, each of which has a big article. ”

"If you don't do a good job, you have to be used as a sword by the people in the house." Wang Yunxiu complained for a long time, and after saying all the unhappiness in his heart, he felt a little more comfortable.

In the end, he also sighed, "I might as well not have this housekeeping right, I don't know what to fight for in a thankless errand, and I don't know what they think." It's still good for our family, and there are not so many bad things. ”

Xu Jiayi has been quietly listening to Wang Yunxiu's complaints, and from time to time she responds to two sentences. She knew that her cousin didn't need her to say anything, she just needed an outlet.

After complaining, Wang Yunxiu asked out loud, "I heard that you went to Cui Xin's sister's side?" ”

"Well, just came over there." Xu Jiayi nodded and briefly explained Cui Xin's situation. Wang Yunxiu couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, and waved his hand, "Forget it, don't talk about it, you came to me to come to me to complain, right?" Do you want to play in the snow again? ”

"Whoever knows me, so does my cousin." Xu Jiayi looked at Wang Yunxiu with a smile and shook her head and laughed.

Wang Yunxiu smiled in response, and the maid put on a thick cloak for her girl, and she also wore gloves on her hands. It's just that Xu Jiayi disliked gloves and got in the way, so she went directly to her bare hands.

The two sisters built a big snowman in the yard, almost as tall as Xu Jiayi. He made the eyes of the snowman out of almonds, the nose of the snowman with carrots, and put an iron bucket over his head. Xu Jiayi disliked this snowman and was ugly, Wang Yunxiu had no choice but to contribute her own fat powder, and asked Xu Jiayi to grease and beautify it.

Watching Xu Jiayi start wiping grease and powder on the snowman's face, it didn't have to make the snowman look better, but it was a little nondescript. Wang Yunxiu only felt that it was really a waste of her fat powder, but after glancing at Xu Jiayi, who was enjoying herself, she felt that the fat powder was wasted, and she was happy one by one.

The slender hands of the two little girls were red from the cold, and they didn't feel cold, and when they saw that it was still early after building the snowman, they pulled the maids in the yard to have a snowball fight together, and the yard erupted into laughter from time to time.

Tired of playing, he asked Lan Xue to move two embroidery piers and put them by the window. Shaking the snow off her body, Wang Yunxiu and Xu Jiayi, two little girls, sat side by side, lying on the window lattice and staring at the snowflakes outside the window, no more leisurely.

Wang Yunxiu sighed and couldn't help but sigh, "Time flies so fast, it's already a new year......

"yes, you're going to get married in the blink of an eye." Xu Jiayi's eyes were a little dazed, she spoke slowly, counted with her fingers, and shook it in front of Wang Yunxiu's eyes, "You will get married in March this year." ”

As soon as Xu Jiayi's words fell, Wang Yunxiu's cheeks turned crimson at a speed visible to the naked eye, and she shyly and timidly sighed, "I haven't said anything about you, you know how to laugh at me?" Where did this dragonfly hairpin on your head come from, and I don't know it honestly. ”

"I won't tell you." Xu Jiayi made a grimace at Wang Yunxiu, shook her head and stuck out her tongue "slightly", and looked proud.

"Don't say it?" Wang Yunxiu asked rhetorically, and saw that Xu Jiayi nodded solemnly, not only was she not angry, but the corners of her lips slightly hooked a wicked smile. Xu Jiayi saw that the secret path was not good, and before she could hide, she was caught by Wang Yunxiu, scratched her waist, and said in her mouth, "Don't say it, right?" Don't say yes, do you? ”

Xu Jiayi hid back while laughing, laughing so much that her voice trembled a little, "Itchy......"

However, Wang Yunxiu did not let go of Xu Jiayi, the whole person pounced on Xu Jiayi and kept moving her hands and feet around her waist, Xu Jiayi laughed so much that tears were about to fall, and she kept twisting her body to escape Wang Yunxiu's control, which made the maids in the room laugh out loud.

Xu Jiayi struggled for a while to no avail, and finally could only beg for mercy in a low voice, "Cousin, I was wrong, I was wrong, don't scratch ...... anymore"

"That's pretty much it." After hearing this, Wang Yunxiu withdrew her hand, slowly got up from the ground, helped Xu Jiayi to stand up, straightened her clothes and hair for her, blinked curiously, approached Xu Jiayi's side and asked aloud, "Yiyi, where did this dragonfly hairpin on your head come from, tell your cousin?" ”

"Don't say it."

"Did your mother or second aunt give it to you?" Wang Yunxiu said casually.

Xu Jiayi shook her head.

"That's grandmother?"

"It's not."

Wang Yunxiu lowered his head and pondered for a while, thinking that the Hai family and Xu Jiayi had a good relationship, and the Hai family came two days ago and gave everyone a gift, so he guessed, "The Hai family sent it?" ”

"Not really."

No?

Wang Yunxiu raised her eyebrows, thought about it carefully, a name flashed in her mind, and suddenly said out loud, "It was given to you by Chu Shizi?" ”

"Cousin, why do you want to know so much who gave this hairpin?" Xu Jiayi's face froze, but it had returned to normal in an instant, and she asked casually.

"It's not that I saw you come and sit here for a while, at least I saw you touch this hairpin ten times and eight times, which shows that you are very tight about this hairpin baby. In the past, we didn't give you this kind of treatment for your jewelry. Wang Yunxiu said sourly, "If you don't really like this hairpin, then the person who gave you this hairpin likes you." ”

Xu Jiayi's heart chuckled, is it so obvious?

Turning her eyes slightly, Xu Jiayi raised her hand and wanted to touch the dragonfly hairpin in her hair, but she couldn't help it when she thought of Wang Yunxiu's words. So does she really like this hairpin, or is it because of the person who gave it to her?!

Xu Jiayi seemed to have been poked in the heart, hurriedly lowered her eyes, and changed to another topic, "Cousin, why haven't you seen your uncle recently?" ”

"Father, he's been busy lately, and I haven't seen him much......"

The two laughed for a while before they quieted down, and after sitting and chatting for a while, Xu Jiayi yawned a little sleepily and rubbed the tears in the corners of her eyes.

"Sleepy?" Wang Yunxiu turned her head and asked, Xu Jiayi yawned and nodded, and answered. Wang Yunxiu beckoned Lan Xue to prepare some hot water, and they washed up and slept for a while.

The two little girls slept together when they were children, Xu Jiayi didn't see each other at this time, she directly took off her shoes and socks and soaked her feet in hot water, then rolled to Wang Yunxiu's bed, rolled around and hugged the brocade quilt and looked at Wang Yunxiu on the bed, "Cousin, hurry up." ”

"You ran to my bed before you dried your feet, the bed was wet with you......" Wang Yunxiu glanced at Xu Jiayi, and saw that the soles of her feet were still wet, and couldn't help but say loudly, after cleaning, she lay down next to Xu Jiayi, took the brocade quilt and covered both of them, "Sleep......

Xu Jiayi leaned to Wang Yunxiu's side, rubbed into her arms, found a comfortable position, closed her eyes and fell asleep, just like when she was a child.

When Xu Jiayi woke up, Wang Yunxiu was no longer around.

The maid next to her saw Xu Jiayi's face full of doubts, and hurriedly replied, "Just now, when you were still asleep, Girl, Mama Su came and invited the eldest girl to Wan'an Hall." When the girl left, she said, "If you wake up, you can go to Wan'an Hall to look for her." ”

Xu Jiayi nodded in response, but did not go to Wan'an Hall to join in the fun.

Since my grandmother sent Mama Su to find her cousin in the past, she naturally had something to tell her cousin, what kind of excitement did she have in the past?

It was almost noon at this time, and since my cousin had gone to Wan'an Hall, my grandmother wanted to keep her for dinner. Thinking so, Xu Jiayi also said hello to the little maid and took Cuiyun back to Jiaxi Garden slowly.

Mrs. Su is indeed looking for Wang Yunxiu here, but it is not another big thing, but to add makeup to Wang Yunxiu.

In Wan'an Hall, Mrs. Su glanced at Mama Su, Mama Su immediately understood, turned around and opened the cabinet on the side, I don't know where she toyed with, she only heard a "click", opened a mezzanine under the cabinet, took out a mahogany box from it, and handed it to Wang Yunxiu.

Wang Yunxiu glanced at Mrs. Su's face, and when she saw that she motioned for herself to open it, she opened the mahogany box, only to find that the stack of thick silver tickets placed inside was almost all worth one hundred taels, and it was roughly estimated that there were at least a few thousand taels. Wang Yunxiu couldn't help but look at Mrs. Su with a little surprise, "Grandmother, this is ......"

"Sister Yun, you are going to get married in two months, and you will have a lot of places to spend money after you leave the cabinet, so you must keep some silver on hand. If you should give a reward to your subordinates, you will reward your subordinates, and you will spend the money where you should spend it, and then tell your grandmother when the money is not enough. These silver tickets are a little bit of grandmother's heart, and the silver tickets of 5,000 taels and the deed of the two shops in it, you can keep it first. In Wang Yunxiu's surprised eyes, Mrs. Su smiled and said in a low voice.

If this silver is given to Cui's family, I am afraid that she will accept it directly without asking for a reason. This granddaughter is indeed a good one, and she is happy to give it. What's more, Shangshu Mansion is such a girl, she naturally has to be more biased.

"I can't accept this," Wang Yunxiu waved his hand again and again, closed the mahogany box again and pushed it to Mrs. Su's side, "I know that my grandmother feels sorry for me, but I have money, and I have a lot of money left over every month." My mother also gave me a lot of money not long ago, enough to spend. ”

"Your mother gave you what your mother gave, and what I gave me was what I gave, how can this be the same?!" Old Mrs. Su pushed the mahogany box back again, "The elder gives it, I can't resign." You will take what your grandmother gave you, and you will not be disgusted with much silver. ”
