It's the beginning of winter

The fish belly is white in the east, and the sun that has just poked its head out, is looking at the busy people in every household.

As early as the day before the beginning of winter, the big families installed thick curtains, brought out carbon braziers, and re-glued the windows.

Xu Yu was playing the piano under the window when she heard someone coming upstairs, she turned around, and saw Cuiyun beside Su Mu, came to her and gave a salute and said, "The master has a watch for Miss Watch." ”

Xu Yu got up and straightened his clothes, and saluted back: "There is Sister Lao Cuiyun." After saying that, he followed Cuiyun downstairs.

A moment later, when he arrived in the main courtyard, Cuiyun said goodbye through the thick brocade curtain, then opened the curtain, and stepped in as promised.

I saw Su's father, who was wearing regular clothes, sitting on the Luohan bed, and Su's mother sitting next to her, who was holding Sunningyu in her arms.

Xu Promise came to the front of the hall and saluted the two of them, saying, "Uncle, aunt." ”

Then Su's father motioned for her to do it, and after Youlan helped her promise to sit down, she heard Su's father say: "Today in the court, Your Majesty suddenly mentioned your father, saying that your father was wronged, and now I will find out and allow him to return to Beijing to resume his job and return the family property." It is estimated that the New Year will come in March and April. ”

Xu Hearing this, he smiled and nodded.

Father Su continued: "Although Uncle Guo's mansion has been opened, it has been unattended for several months, so it is impossible to live in. Your aunt will take care of it as a person, and your father will take care of it when he comes, and you will be moving back then. ”

Xu Promise stood up and saluted: "Yes, Promise to listen to my uncle's arrangement." ”

At this time, Su Mu on the side said: "It's not early, let's go back after lunch here!" ”

Promise nodded yes, and walked on the stool. Mother Su instructed Mama Wang to call the sisters of the Su family to eat.

After a while, I saw all the maids and women, carrying food boxes. One by one, they walked into the side hall, but after a while, they quietly retreated.

At this time, Mama Wang walked in from outside the door, stood by the door, raised her hand and lifted the curtain slightly, followed by two slim girls, both wearing red brocade embroidered jackets with pink pomegranate skirts, like a pair of twins.

Su Rou and Su Qi bowed to Su's father and Su's mother before entering the hall, "Father, mother." ”

Father Su smiled and nodded. The two girls turned to Promise to give a salute, and Promise got up to return the salute.

After returning the title, I heard Cuiyun say, "The old lady can use rice." ”

Mother Su got up and helped Father Su into the side hall, and promised to follow the two sisters in turn.

After the meal, they promised to go back to Qingfeng Pavilion, but they were pulled into their sisters' room by Suki.

In the boudoir, "Sister, the Qingyun song you played that day is really good." I heard that after that day, my cousins practiced this piece every day! Sister, you teach us! Su Qi sat beside Xu Promise and said coquettishly, and Su Rou sat on the side and nodded with a smile.

Xu Yue looked at the two of them and wanted to learn, and thought in embarrassment, 'I didn't know how to do it that time, I have only been learning according to Mr. Gu Yu's teaching for a few days now, and I don't know if I can fool them. ’

Xu promised to be embarrassed and said with a smile: "I was also taught by my husband before, but I have remembered the piano skills taught by Mr. Gu Yu in the past few days, and I have forgotten some of the previous ones." ”

"It's okay, we just wanted to discuss piano skills with my sister, and it's okay to forget." Su Rou comforted.

When Su Qi heard this, she promised that she didn't want to teach, so she complained a little and said: "Sister, have you really forgotten or faked to forget, we have been living together for two or three months, and we are saying that we are cousins!" Don't you still guard against us? ”

Xu Promise got up and covered his mouth and smiled, "Sister, why do you say that, I know that I am just afraid that I will not teach my sister and sister well, and I am afraid that you will blame me." Since my sister said so, the teaching is bad and miscellaneous, so you can't blame me. ”

Su Qi laughed and said, "It's not weird, it's not weird. As long as my sister is willing to teach. ”

After playing for a while, the promise resigned the two sisters and returned to Qingfeng Pavilion on the grounds that they were tired, and the more they thought about it, the more they couldn't, "I played so well last time, but now it's so bad, no, I have to find a few piano scores to read." Thinking so, he went downstairs and flipped through the book.

After a while, Xu Xu, who was standing at the desk, helplessly flipped through the few piano scores she was looking for.

She looked up at Youlan who was standing on the side and said, "Youlan, can you understand?" Xu Promise looked at Youlan and looked at the book, then shook his head at her, and Xu Promise suddenly lay on the table in frustration and sighed.

But after a while, Xu Yu suddenly stood up and suddenly said, "Why didn't I think of it just now, go ask the big brother!" He promised to pick up the book and leave.

She looked at Youlan and was still stunned, so she asked suspiciously, "Hasn't the eldest brother finished school yet?" ”

Youlan hurriedly said: "No, no, no, no, no, son, he is out of school." "Talking about dancing and explaining to the promise.

Xu Promise looked at Youlan curiously, and thought, 'This girl, why is she so flustered when she mentions her big brother!' ’

Xu Promise asked suspiciously: "Youlan, are you hiding something from me, why are you nervous when you mention the eldest prince?" ”

Hearing that Xu Promise asked, Youlan lowered her head in shame and said: "I was originally bought by my wife to be a personal maid for my son, but when my son saw me in his room, he left angrily, and then Mama Wang came to take me, and it happened that the master brought the girl back, and Mrs. asked me to serve the girl." ”

The promise suddenly realized: "Oh, that's it! It's okay, you go and take the big brother's clothes, and we'll go and return the clothes. ”

Xu Promise looked at Youlan, who was going downstairs with her clothes, her face full of worry.

"Let's go! Big brother may have forgotten about you? With that, he promised to pull Youlan and went to Suningke's courtyard.

"Big brother is here." Xu Xu, who had just entered the hospital, shouted.

A little maid waiting outside saw that Xu Yu was coming, and hurriedly said to the house: "Childe, my cousin is here." ”

When the door curtain was lifted, I saw an elegant boy in a green shirt and a plain brocade robe, who strode out with a book in one hand and a robe in the other.

Seeing this person's promise, he shouted enthusiastically: "Big brother, I'm here to return your clothes, I was busy with studies a few days ago, and I didn't have time to draw patterns, so I delayed my big brother." As soon as I finished drawing, I sent the clothes to my eldest brother. After saying that, Youlan handed over the clothes to the little girl.

Suning smiled and said: "It's okay, my clothes are still generous, and my sister is not tired of herself." ”

The two walked to the stone table in the courtyard and sat down. Suning Ke instructed: "Some tea on the moon." The little guy on the side answered yes and went down.

Su Ningke looked at Xu Yu as if he had something to do, so he couldn't help but ask: "Sister, there is still something to do when you come over today, but it doesn't hurt to say something." ”

When Xu Promise heard Suning say this, he was a little shy, took out the piano sheet in his sleeve and asked, "Big brother, look at this piano score." ”

Su Ningke took a look and said with a smile: "Yes, we have also learned." ”

Hearing this, Xu Yu smiled and continued to ask, "Can the eldest brother teach me?" ”

Suning smiled and said, "Okay! I'm free right now. So saying, the two of them walked into the house.

At this time, Xiaoqing, the girl who was pruning flowers and branches in the yard, said: "This junior won't still think about sitting on the eldest son's maid!" ”

Xiao Green said: "What little three, now people call it Youlan." ”

Xiaoqing: "Really? It was given to her cousin. ”

Midori: "Yes! Last time, Mrs. Qianlan'er went to visit Miss Biao, and I followed, and when I went upstairs, I heard Miss Cousin giving them silver tickets. ”

Xiao Zi, who was weeding, got up curiously and asked, "Is it true?" The minimum of these silver tickets is fifty taels. ”

Midori: "Of course it's true. ”

Xiaoqing: "I knew that Miss Cousin was so easy to deceive, I should have asked Mrs. to take care of it." ”

Xiao Zi: "Yes! You said that if the cousin girl and her son become married, this Youlan will be a maid again. ”

Xiaoqing: "Who says it's not!" ”

As soon as Xiaoqing finished speaking, she heard a scolding behind her, it turned out that Lan'er heard that Youlan led the promise to come to the eldest prince, and wanted to come to take a look, but she heard the little maid talking nonsense, so she angrily reprimanded: "What are you chewing on the root of your tongue, don't be afraid that I will give you Mrs. and drive you out of the house." ”

They turned around and saw Dao Lan'er standing behind them, and they didn't know how long it would be, and the scared little girls raised their feet and ran.

Looking at the little maid who had run away, Lan'er glanced at the room resentfully, turned around and left.
