The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the acquaintances in the yard keep calling. Zhiyun couldn't take a nap because of the noise, so he simply didn't sleep, and took a fan and wanted to go to the pavilion to cool off.

Bi Tao brought ice cubes and chilled fruits, and the pavilion was much cooler than the house.

Zhiyun eats iced plums, she likes to eat sour, and she doesn't stop taking a bite. Bi Tao was a little worried: "Miss, although this iced plum relieves the heat, it is not good to eat more, so as not to spoil your stomach." ”

Zhiyun thought about it and made sense, and put down the hand that wanted to continue to take the plums on the plate.

"You can hurry up, lest I get hungry again." Zhiwan waved his hand.

Bi Tao hurriedly took the ice plum down, and Ziyuan fanned Zhiwan next to her.

At this time, a childish voice suddenly came: "Second sister! ”

Yuan Song stumbled all the way with his little short legs. The grandmother who followed behind her was soaked with sweat: "Ouch, my young master, you can slow down, what can I do when I fall." ”

Yuan Song didn't listen, and trotted all the way into Zhiyun's arms, Zhiyun smiled and picked up the little man, pinched his little nose and said, "But it's naughty again." ”

Yuan Song's little face turned red, and he giggled, "Second sister, I'm here to play with you." ”

Near Yuansong, this little doll always loves to run to her Yunshui residence, and every time she has to play with him for a long time, and she will reluctantly go back to the third room when it is almost dark.

Zhiyun also likes this little doll, she didn't have anything to do with Sanfang in her previous life, and naturally she didn't pay too much attention to Sanfang's children, but she only remembered that there was such a younger brother but she was not close. But after reliving, maybe it was because she was eager to have a child in her previous life, maybe she couldn't get her wish to have a child of her own even if she tried her best, and she always had to be extra close to a cute milk doll like Yuan Song in this life.

She hugged Yuan Song and said, "Ziyuan, you go to the small kitchen and bring some snacks for the little young master to eat." ”

Yuan Song heard that there was food, and immediately clapped his hands: "I like to come to the second sister the most, the second sister will give me delicious food, and my mother always asks my grandmother to take care of me and I don't let me eat too many snacks." ”

"Then you said that you like to come to play with the second sister, just to eat snacks?" Zhiyun deliberately pouted, pretending to be angry.

Yuan Song retorted, "It's not a mile, Song'er likes the second sister." As he spoke, he drilled into Zhiyun's arms.

"Song'er likes the second sister the most, the eldest sister also likes it, and the fourth sister also likes it." Yuan Song crossed his fingers and counted how many sisters there were.

"Oh? What about the third sister? Zhiyun was amused by his cute appearance.

Yuan Song shook his head, "I don't like it, the third sister doesn't like Song'er, and Song'er doesn't like her either." ”

"How do you know that the third sister doesn't like you?"

"The third sister used to always stare at me, I didn't like her, and she scolded people and was heard by me, scolding the second sister." Genmatsu pursed his lips and looked puffed out.

Zhiyun saw that this little milk baby was quite clever when she spoke, and she didn't ask him what Xia Sisi scolded her, she didn't have to think about it to know what unbearable words they were, she wasn't interested.

Yuan Songwu ate the sugar shortbread and jerky that Ziyuan brought over. Zhiyun looked at Yuan Song, Sanfang is a cautious person on weekdays, and that person doesn't look like a person who will take advantage of his children when he sees Xia Bo and Xu, especially when Xu sees Yuan Song close to him that day, he is a little panicked, but recently, he ......

Can't blame her for being too careful, after being reborn, her mind has become extraordinarily sensitive, and she always feels that there must be a demon when things go wrong, although she loves the little doll Yuansong, but she hates to use a child to achieve her goals, is it Xia Bo and Xu's intention to get closer or someone else wants to take advantage of this to make a living?

Yuan Song was happy to eat, and when he saw a person walking in the distance, he waved his hand at the person: "Fourth sister, come and eat delicious food here for second sister!" ”

Zhiyun looked at the person walking outside the door, wearing a goose-yellow skirt, with a double bun on his head, a pair of thin willow eyebrows should have been charming, but the lips were dull and bloodless, so this softness was greatly discounted, the shoulders were thin, it seemed that a gust of wind could blow people away, and at first glance it was a sick and crooked appearance, this was her fourth sister, Xia Mengshu.

Xia Mengshu is like a rumor in this house, she rarely appears in front of people, and she doesn't come to greet her grandmother on weekdays, because everyone knows that she has been in poor health since she was a child, and she has been drinking medicine almost all year round, as if she was brewed in a medicine jar.

Actually boarded her Yunshui House today? It's really unusual.

Xia Mengshu came up to bless his body, and rushed to Zhiyun to see the gift. Zhiyun helped her and said, "The fourth sister is a rare guest of my Yunshui Residence, so you don't have to be polite." ”

Xia Mengshu smiled, and the face that had no color was a little weak when he smiled. She sat down opposite Zhiyun, "I'm here to take a look at Song'er, I've been bothering the second sister recently, and I hope the second sister won't be surprised." ”

"How come, I'm glad you can come, I heard that you have been getting better recently, what kind of medicine are you taking."

"It's nothing more than those who used to make up for the body, the disease brought out of my mother's womb, although the doctor didn't say it, but I also knew in my heart that I was afraid that this would be the case in my life." Xia Mengshu lowered his head as he spoke, his face sad.

Zhiyun's eyes flashed: "The fourth sister doesn't have to worry too much, it's always okay to slowly adjust your body." ”

Xia Mengshu knew that Zhiyun was saying polite words and didn't take it to heart, and then the two of them didn't have anything to talk about, they could only hear the amusement and playfulness of Zhiyun and Yuansong in the pavilion, Xia Mengshu sat quietly next to him and didn't speak.

Zhiyun and the fourth sister didn't want to talk more, and after playing with Yuan Song for a while, they said that they were sleepy and wanted to sleep for a while, and Xia Mengshu didn't want to stay long, so he left Yunshuiju with Yuan Song.

Zhiyun looked at the back of Xia Mengshu leaving, and had some thoughts in her heart, although she didn't know much about the fourth sister, and she didn't know if the other party was paying attention, but she would never be wrong if she was more careful.

She was also really tired, but she thought that the acquaintance on the tree was very noisy, so she called Bi Tao: "Bi Tao, you can take a few people to stick the knowledge on the tree." ”

Bi Tao took the order to take a few people to sticky Zhi, she returned to the house and fell on the couch and began to take a nap.

She also slept for a long time this night, and she didn't wake up until it was dark when Bi Tao had set up dinner.

Bi Tao covered her with vegetables, "Miss, you love to eat this Sixi meatball, and this is the newly made milk bird's nest in the kitchen." ”

At this time, Ziyuan trotted in from outside, "Miss, there is news from the palace, five days later, on Concubine Rong's birthday, the emperor set up a banquet in the palace, and invited the ladies and ladies of the major mansions to the banquet." ”

Ziyuan was sweating profusely, and Zhiwan said: "Look at you running sweaty, go wash your face, I know." ”

In the previous life, it was precisely at this time that Concubine Rong, who was favored in the palace, held a birthday banquet, she still remembered that Xia Sisi was in the limelight at this banquet, and she compared the two young ladies of the Imperial History Mansion, and she was quite famous in Yanjing, so that when others talked about the Imperial History Mansion, they only said that the three young ladies were not only beautiful but also quite talented, and the good piano she played was simply fascinating.

And she and Xia Rou look mediocre in such a comparison.

This time she will definitely not let things happen again, Xia Si wants to be famous and wants to be in the limelight, then she will ruin her wishes!

She whispered something to Bi Tao, and Bi Tao smiled and said, "Yes, Miss!" ”

……

Four days passed quickly, and tomorrow I was going to enter the palace. Zhiyun heard that the sound of the piano would be heard in Xia Sisi's courtyard these days. Zhiyun smiled, her third sister is really hardworking, think about it, Xia Sisi is the best at the piano, the banquet in this palace, said to be a banquet, is actually a major family for their children to see if there is a suitable family, Xia Si thought out of the limelight is not surprising.

Originally, Xia Sisi's identity was not qualified to enter and leave the palace banquet, but Xia Qing doted on Xia Sisi, and everyone knew it. At that time, Mrs. Xia took the three of them into the palace, and the third room could not go together because they had no official position.

Mrs. Xia sent someone to let Zhiyun go to Rongxi Hall, and she wanted to give a lecture.

And when Zhiyun arrived at Rongxi Hall, he saw Xia Rou helping Mrs. Xia beat her legs.

Mrs. Xia praised: "I'm afraid Rou'er's hand is more effective than the Langzhong invited by my grandmother." ”

Xia Rou said humbly: "Where is the granddaughter better than the doctor's skills, it's just that the grandmother loves her granddaughter." ”

Mrs. Xia has always loved Xia Rou the most, because she is sweet and sensible, and she knows how to advance and retreat. But recently, she found that the girl had become much more sensible. I couldn't help but have a look of appreciation on my face.

After Zhiyun saluted, Xia Sisi also came quickly.

After everyone sat down, Mrs. Xia began to say solemnly: "I will enter the palace tomorrow, the palace is not as good as the outside, I also asked Qiu Niang to teach you the rules before, have you all memorized it?" ”

"Remember." The three nodded in response.

"There are a lot of rules in the palace, remember that you can't collide with the nobles at any time, otherwise the slightest mistake may lose your life and the family. Whether it is from the clothes or the rules, you must show me the appearance of Miss Yushi, and you must not lose face to your father. "Old Madam Xia called them here today to give them more instructions on the last day, so as not to cause any chaos tomorrow.

"The granddaughter remembers her grandmother's teachings."

After the lecture, everyone left Rongxi Hall one after another.

Xia Rou and Zhiyun walked together, followed by Xia Sisi, Zhiyun and Xia Rou talked, and did not pay attention to Xia Sisi behind her, as if she was a transparent person.

"Sister, these days you have been learning to be a housekeeper, you can see that you are also very tired, tomorrow we enter the palace, you will rest early at night, but I heard Lily say, you always look at the account book and see late at night, and if you continue like this, your eyes will be boiled out." Zhiyun took Xia Rou's arm and said.

Xia Rou smiled and said, "You just listen to Lily's nonsense, how can it be so serious." However, there is too much attention to this housekeeping business, and I will not be able to fully learn it for a while. ”

Xia Sisi secretly gritted his teeth.
