Leisure Chapter 58, Qing Pingle (2)
The next day, when the sky was bright, Shen Fu put on a long robe in a panic, climbed down from the bed, and asked Ruiyun to wait for freshening.
Hearing the sound of Bora Bora's water, Chen Yun also opened his eyes dimly, and through a grass-colored fragrant cloud barrier, he saw Shen Fu busy as if he was in a hurry, washing his face and getting a haircut, and couldn't help laughing twice, and then slowly put on his clothes.
After washing, breakfast was served. Chen Yun was busy combing her hair and dressing up before the makeup, and she didn't come out for a long time, Shen Fu didn't dare to urge her, and she had another errand on her body, so she had to gobble up breakfast and hurriedly went to ask Shen's mother for peace.
Although Shen's mother has always gotten up early, she has been lazy recently, and when Shen Fu went to ask for peace, the old man was drinking red bean porridge leisurely.
Shen Fu thought that his aunt and cousins were about to meet, and he was just happy in his heart, so he didn't say a word, and directly said hello.
Shen's mother saw him beaming with joy, and she was unconsciously open-minded, and after a few words of care, she pulled him to sit beside her. Because she heard that there were several passenger boats in the ferry today, Shen's mother couldn't help but think about her daughter, and told Shen Fu to be careful.
Shen Fu responded one by one, said goodbye to Shen's mother, and went to Chen's room to say goodbye. It just so happened that Chen Yun was also serving by Chen's side, and the two of them were silent.
The Chen family knew that they were newly married, so they ignored their eyebrows, but they were afraid that Shen Fu would be young and careless and couldn't take charge alone, so he pulled him to sit on the opposite side and told him carefully.
Shen Fu was most afraid of the chatter of the elders, so he promised in person, and waited for Chen to say everything before he said goodbye. When he happily left Yimei Courtyard, Shen Fu felt comfortable in his heart, and hurriedly sent Pingshun to the stable to lead the red-maned horse, then saddled up the horse and ran all the way to the ferry.
At noon, Mrs. Wu, Chen, and her daughter-in-law gathered in Shen's mother's room to talk, discussing how to celebrate An Qichun's birthday. An Qichun thought that he was young, and it was not worth worrying about a few elders for himself, so he opened his mouth in every possible way to excuse himself, but he couldn't stand Shen's mother's love for liveliness, so he drew a knife and broke the wire, and gave an order. Then, the outer courtyard came in with a message, saying that my aunt and grandmother had arrived in front of the house. Shen's mother was full of joy, and she couldn't even say anything for a while, so she only told the maid to go down to buy a banquet in Lichun.
Chen Yun has never seen this aunt, but she only mentioned two sentences when she heard the old man in the house talk about it, saying that this aunt and grandmother are the best in appearance, and her personality is also one in a hundred. Seeing that Shen's mother was moved, the two aunts and mother-in-law Chen did not show disgust, and Chen Yun became even more curious about this aunt.
After another stick of incense, there was a sudden sound of skirts rubbing outside the house, and then the soft curtain was lifted, and a group of people walked in.
Chen Yun looked at the past, and saw that the person at the head was about forty years old, the charm still existed, the body was slender, the hair comb was single-knife and half-turned bun, the hair was sparsely parted with two treasure hairpins, wearing a golden butterfly dark flower placket, the front cuffs were embroidered with tangled branches and begonias, and the lake-colored pleated skirt was weighed below, inlaid with two silver edges, and a red coral necklace was hung around the neck, which contrasted with the jade earrings.
"Mother!"
Aunt Chang shouted, and her eyes suddenly turned red.
Shen's mother was happy to get up, stood up tremblingly, and stretched out her hands to hug her daughter. Aunt Chang's eyes were quick, and she took the first few steps to meet her, and couldn't help whimpering while hugging Shen's mother. When Mrs. Zhou and others saw this situation, they hurriedly went up to persuade them.
Chen Yun ignored these, looked behind her eyes, and saw that Aunt Chang was followed by a cuisheng boudoir girl.
The age of this girl is about fourteen years old, her posture is pretty, her skin is slightly plump, her head is loosely tied with a morning sun bun, a silver hairpin and a silver butterfly are inserted in her hair, and she wears a lotus lotus gown with color embroidery on a green background, and a pink and white pleated skirt underneath, and the pleated skirt is embroidered with Yutang Fugui.
It seems that because of her recognition of life, the girl has been silent since she entered the house, only two big eyes like copper bells are constantly spinning, peeping back and forth at everyone in the house.
"This is Sister Yue, I often hear Xianggong whispering in my ear, saying that Aunt Yangzhou has a fairy-like girl at home, I used to only think he was a joke, but now that I see it, I know that it is the truth!" Pan Cuilian saw that a nest of people only cared about greetings, so she put Chang Yue aside and took the lead in talking.
"She's like a villain, her eyebrows haven't grown yet, so she can see that she is a fairy?" Aunt Chang wiped her tears, and was arranged by Shen's mother to sit beside her, and then began to slowly look at a few juniors. Because of the face, Aunt Chang watched for a long time without a result, so she had to confess: "In the past ten years, I haven't been back to the house to see, and now I see these juniors, and my heart is really painful and loving, but they all look very raw, I don't know whose room you are in?" ”
Mother Shen listened to it, and she didn't have time to make an introduction, so Mrs. Wu preemptively said: "This is in Heng'er's room, this is in Yi'er's room, and this is in Fu'er's room!" ”
Aunt Chang looked at it one by one, and saw Pan Cuilian Jiao Bo Liuhui, a thin willow posture, a hanging hair on her head, a royal blue phoenix-shaped head flower, and a tired silk gold step at the end of her hair; Wearing a blue background embroidered swallow perched willow row spike gown, covered with a double skirt of water-white Ruyi cloud embroidery entwined flowers, delicate like spring flowers, charming like the autumn moon, I couldn't help but smile and open my eyes.
Looking down, I saw An Qichun's willow eyes and plum cheeks, moon eyebrows and white forehead, a flying fairy bun on her head, a hairpin with a red begonia bead flower, and a three-winged warbler feather hibiscus stone step shake, wearing an autumn fragrance base embroidered Tang Yugui Yan small jacket, and a tender white silk skirt under it. Seeing Chen Yun's pink face and ducks in the clouds, I couldn't help but love it.
"I see, these children are all very good-looking, and the three sisters-in-law are blessed!" Aunt Chang said, glanced left and right, couldn't see Mrs. Zhou's figure, and couldn't help but wonder: "The most common sister-in-law is courteous, why don't you see her today?" ”
When Mrs. Wu and Chen heard this, their smiles gradually faded and they were silent.
Mother Shen didn't want to bring up the old story again, so she lied: "You don't know, she has been sick for a few months and has been raising her in the hospital!" As she spoke, she raised her eyes and glanced at Aunt Chang, seeing that she was half-convinced, Shen's mother didn't dare to make it up any longer, so she simply shifted her gaze and said, "Yue'er, you are coming!" ”
Chang Yue cautiously stepped up, respectfully blessed the blessed body, and said, "Grandmother! ”
Mother Shen saw that she was beautiful and soft-spoken, and she felt more fond of it in her heart, so she shouted with her heart and soul, and said: "This child is made of jade and powder, nine points like when you were a child, I saw it, and I always felt that my heart was kind, I really love and love it enough, but I don't know if you can point out someone for her?" If not, I have to be nosy, and the decision is to choose a good local family for her, and in the future, she will be close, and her grandchildren will often come and go, and she can also relieve the pain of lovesickness! ”
Chang Yue asked, just lowered her head and said shyly.
Aunt Chang replied: "This child was born in less than a month, and he was born weak. I have always been the most attentive to her, and I intended to keep her by her side for a few more years and choose a husband for her, but my lord is used to acting arbitrarily and alone, and when he saw that Brother Yuan had married a wife and had children, he always wanted to send her out. Coincidentally, at the end of last year, a merchant came to Hangzhou and handed over a name card to visit. There is an only son in the family, born extraordinary, not bad in learning, and he is extremely respectful of the old and loves the young, the old man has seen a few times in private, and his heart is very satisfied, plus the two families have business contacts all the year round, and the friendship is not shallow, one comes and goes, this family matter is also decided! ”
Mother Shen couldn't help but sigh when she heard that she was happy again, and then asked, "Why didn't Yuan'er follow you?" ”
Aunt Chang immediately sighed and said, "Mother, don't mention him, as soon as your old man mentions him, I will be ashamed of him!" Seeing Shen's mother and a room of people holding her breath and listening quietly, Aunt Chang adjusted her breathing and continued: "He, when he was a child, he looked good, clever, and loved to learn, who knows that since he became a family, he has become more and more unsuccessful, going out to fool around all day long, wandering in the goulan tile shop, my daughter-in-law is also an embroidery shelf, which is useless, and he can't control it, and he can't hold his heart, which makes him more and more bold, and he doesn't want to go home. He will carry people out to drink and have fun, like a horse without a hitch! ”
Mother Shen was full of anxiety when she heard this, and said in a deep tone: "He is so unorthodox, can your master spare him?" ”
"The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, how can he still have the face to care about his son?" Aunt Chang thought of the bad things in the past, and couldn't help sighing, and said: "I think that when I just got married to Yangzhou, he was careful and diligent, and he couldn't dig out his heart to me, I only thought that he was a rare person who knew cold and hot, how could I think, before a few years, his fishy stinky problem was slowly revealed!" ”
After hearing this, Shen's mother patted Aunt Chang's hand and sighed.
Mrs. Wu persuaded from the side: "My sister feels that she is bitter in her heart, why aren't we like this? There is no man in the world who is not a gluttonous cat, there is really that single-minded, and there is no one in 100,000, it is rare like a baby, we specify that we have missed it, and in this life we can only suffer and suffer in this life, and repay the debts of the previous life and the injustice of the old life! ”
When Chen Yun heard this, she couldn't help but think about it in her heart, and asked herself, if Shen Fu proposed to take a concubine in the future, should she stop it or should she follow his wishes?
If she is according to her heart, she naturally refuses to share her justice with others, but according to the etiquette law, the concubine is reasonable and legal, and she finds fault again.
After thinking about it, he actually walked into a dead end, Chen Yun suddenly felt a headache, and quickly cut off his reverie, looked up, and saw Aunt Chang's face gloomy, and said: "My life is ruined, but it's a pity that my daughter-in-law is so well-behaved, gentle and thrifty, has a good way to govern the family, respects the top, stays at the bottom and is peaceful, and is a good child, but she also has to follow in my footsteps and suffer the crime of staying alone in the empty house!" ”
Mother Shen listened for a long time and sighed: "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and you have also been a cow and a horse for half your life, but you have to think about it a little, you can't be too careful about everything, otherwise, sooner or later you will harm your body, and the gains outweigh the losses!" After that, seeing that Aunt Chang understood a little, she said: "It's rare for you to go home, and now that you're back, put aside those bad things in Yangzhou for the time being, and have serious pleasure!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Chen's side continued: "Coincidentally, we just discussed holding a birthday banquet for Yi's daughter-in-law, and my sister has caught up!" ”
