The west-facing hut is difficult to see the sun all day long, and because of the wall not far from the door, it is difficult to reach even the sunset, and the drowsy room is very uncomfortable. But in the end, when the sun shines in the evening, the dilapidated courtyard behind the house can still enjoy a warm sun.

"Oops!"

Su Yi pulled open his pants and screamed. Then she knocked on the wall connecting the Gongfang room to the inner room: "Mother! Come here! Take a look at ......"

Aunt Cen put down the work in her hand, opened the curtain and ran over, Su Yi pointed to the obscene pants with a white face: "Mother, isn't it, what you said...... That one? ”

Aunt Cen looked at it and smiled: "I'll say, in recent days, I have seen that you are often lazy, and your temper has been good and bad, but you have grown into a big girl." Also, more than eleven years old, it's going to be late. ”

Turning around and going into the back room, Aunt Cen turned over a menstrual belt and clean dirty pants and hid them in her underwear, and pulled Su Yi to change in the small and dim space of Gongfang: "There is always such a day in the girl's house, which means that you are a big child!" Once a month, pay attention to prepare in advance, including these days, before coming, you will have an unstable temper, pay attention to convergence, otherwise you will accidentally make a mistake, but no one cares if you have a special reason, you know? ”

Blushing and nodding, Su Yi whispered "yes", thought about it and asked: "I was scared to death just now when I saw so much blood, I was afraid that I would die on this." ”

"How so!" Aunt Cen smiled: "All the women say that they have survived for so many years, but they have not seen anyone die in this bad thing." Girls with this are adults, and they can have their own children......"

Su Yi's face stiffened, and she hurriedly covered her stomach: "Mother is saying that Yi'er will have a baby?" ”

"It's not time for you to understand!" Aunt Cen feigned anger and stopped her curious words: "Not now, it will be after getting married, as for the rest, now you don't need to know, you are not allowed to ask, and you can't ask secretly!" Do you hear that? ”

Su Yi pouted: "I didn't say I wanted to ask ......."

In the evening, Han Xiu sent someone to say that the courtyard that had been prepared had not been cleaned properly, and the eldest master sent a message to change a group of servants, so he hurriedly cleaned it, and now he asked Miss Jin and Aunt Cen to move the jade steps. After the group moved, it was already night, Su Yi changed his place and was not adaptable, until the third watch fell asleep, Su Yi was sleepy the next morning, and went to the old lady to ask for peace all the way to yawn four or five times in a row.

When Su Yi arrived at Qiyue Hall, the old lady got up and was freshening up. There was already a maid in the room who opened the window, and without the obstacle of the layer of oil paper, the warm sun in the morning came into the house unscrupulously, sprinkling a piece of gold. Her long gray hair hung down to the ground, and the maid knelt on the ground, holding a delicate and delicate grate to comb the old lady's hair.

Miao Yan smiled slightly, and slowly brushed the old lady's hair, and asked, "What kind of bun is the old lady going to comb today?" ”

The old lady smacked: "Naturally, it's still the same!" You're used to not asking, what's wrong with you? It couldn't be that I bumped my head last night, or went to the kitchenette in the middle of the night to steal food...... It's not right, the things in our house eat the dead at most, how can they eat the head? Odd. ”

"The old lady is making fun of me again!" Miao Yan smiled and grated the old lady's hair, and the wisps were extremely meticulous. "Old lady, you are used to combing and throwing away your buns, not to say that you are old! Just be dignified in a bun or something. But wouldn't it be a pity not to comb the old lady's beautiful hair? Besides, old lady, you forgot? Miao Yan put her hands lightly on the old lady's shoulders, poked her head out from the old lady's right shoulder, looked at the old lady from the bronze mirror, and said: "Seventh sister is back today, come to the old lady to say goodbye the first day, old lady, you can't take advantage of this to dress up well?" ”

"Come on!" The old lady smiled and patted off the hand on her right shoulder, and said, "You want to toss my old lady, right?" ”

"Nope!" Miao Yan pouted: "Old lady! Clever words! ”

"Alright!" When the master and servant were laughing, Ran You came in with the curtain: "Miao Yan's subordinates hurry up!" The seventh sister and Aunt Cen have arrived. ”

Ran You is one of the old people next to the old lady, although he is only eighteen years old, but he has been following the old lady for more than ten years, and everyone respectfully calls him "aunt".

Smile wittily: "Look at what you said, aunt! The seventh sister has arrived, and the eighth girl may not get up yet! Then he turned to the old lady and raised his eyebrows proudly, and said, "What do I say!" Speak of the devil! Why don't you dress up soon? ”

"If it's a real person, it's crazy!" The old lady laughed. She took a picture of the bronze mirror, smiled helplessly, and said, "Come on!" Now my old lady's head will be fiddled with by you! ”

"Yes!" Miao Yan shook his head like the wooden doll in the street market: "The old lady's hair, I must have made a wonderful suggestion today!" ”

Ran retreated, and the rest of the world was in charge of her wonderful words. She lowered her head and thought for a while, just choosing the usual comb on the six buns, suddenly her eyes rolled, and she had a ghost idea in her heart, she changed the bun to be combed, obviously fulfilling her ghost idea, but her face was really serious. The old lady didn't notice anything wrong at all, she quietly looked at the shadow of the wonderful words in the mirror, and couldn't stop sighing, this girl with a beautiful face...... Young is good. Sighing faintly, the old lady said, "You have such a temperament, you are in a hurry." However, I also like your temperament, old lady, I'm old! It's not as lively as you young girls. ”

Miao Yan glared: "Where are you old?" It's just that a few young masters call you old lady when they are older, do you really think you are old? I think it's some nonsense down there! ”

"Alas!" The old lady smiled, "I kept you close because you were young!" My old lady is old, but there are a lot of lively young people around me, and when I see you laughing and laughing every day, I feel that I am all young......"

"That's it!" "The old lady is already young, and we are all about the same age. ”

"Nonsense!" The old lady smiled helplessly, and changed the topic instead: "Wonderful words, tell the old lady and I, you and Qiu ...... How's it going? I was talking about marriage last year, why hasn't it been put on the agenda this year? You're sixteen! If you don't marry again, you'll become an old girl! Ay...... What, are you going to learn from Ran You? I have to touch it myself, a girl, I still have work to do every day, where can I have the kung fu to go to the street to meet the real destiny? Oh, you guys one by one, my old lady can't wait! ”

"Don't mention it!" Miao Yan said with disgust on his face, "It's useless! I can't remind him yet! Now when it comes to family affairs, his face is flushed, and he runs far away! I'm chasing one step, he's running one step, and I'm now in a hurry to marry him! ”

"Young man!" The old lady smiled: "The first taste of love, it's all like this!" After a pause, the old lady suddenly said strangely: "Tsk, what kind of bun are you combing for me?" How do I look at ...... So what's wrong? She asked, pointing to the bun on her head that wasn't yet formed.

The wonderful words came back to his senses, and said seriously: "Oh, double buns." ”

"What!" The old lady snatched the comb from Miaoyan's hand and scolded with a smile: "Stinky girl! Trick me again! How old am I, I haven't combed it up yet, otherwise wouldn't it be disrespectful to the old? ”

Miao Yan hurriedly hugged his head and ran two steps away: "Where is it so serious!" ”

Outside the curtain, I heard a long sigh of helplessness: "Old lady! The eight sisters have arrived! Everyone's here! ”

The old lady said "um", and turned to look at Miaoyan: "Why don't you comb my hair well!" ”

Miao Yan smiled and took the comb, and said, "Yes, follow the old lady's orders." ”

The old lady sat down again: "This eighth is too, my sister is here today, and she still doesn't understand the rules as usual, and she will always be the last to ......."

In the main hall of Qiyue Hall, Su Yi was sitting upright, and Aunt Cen could only kneel beside the girl because she was an aunt, and there was no table in front of her, and the rules of words and deeds should be extra cautious. Everyone sat in the house for a long time, and no one came forward to greet them, and everyone understood in their hearts that the ladies and girls in this room could not know each other, and the old lady would naturally introduce them one by one, and there was no hatred, so why be bored to find people to find stubble and stubbornness. But when the curtain outside was picked, the eighth sister came in, and as soon as her eyes were picked, she knew that she didn't have a good heart.

The younger generation should see the elders, sooner rather than later. Even if the elders haven't gotten up yet, you have to wait, this is not a good behavior, in the eyes of everyone, you arrive early, come here and wait, it is natural, if you are late, it is no rules. Of course, since there are rules, there are also unruly people, and now this eighth sister Han Yingrui is one of them.

Han Yingrui is one year younger than Su Yi, she is the fifth daughter of Han Xiu in the long house, ranking eighth, Ruan thought that the first daughter was well raised and the second should be good, but it was because of negligence in discipline that she developed an arrogant character, and even Han Xiu didn't like her very much. Let's say that Han Yingrui Hua Fang saw Su Yi as soon as she entered the door, and immediately said in a strange voice: "Yo, it's just who, I don't know how I lived, yes, the new ...... at home" She was about to say the word "maid", but the fourth sister Han Suyin pulled her away with a smile, interrupted her and said: "This is your eighth sister." ”

Han Yingrui's eyes rolled over her: "Sister? It's just a concubine! ”

Now Han Suyin's face is not very good, she is also a concubine in the end, and her mother Aunt Jin is the Ruan family's marriage. The girl who marries, to put it bluntly, is the concubine room who marries, the old rules in the article on marrying a daughter, and the marrying person fills the house for the master, so that she is dedicated to the lady of the main room and restrains the master's heart. But this matter can be said for sure, so the Ruan family's married daughter chose Aunt Jin Qiu in the house, who is an old man, simple-minded and beautiful, but older than Han Xiu. But there is always a case in everything, this is different when you have a child, you have a child is to rely on, the mother is expensive by the child, but unfortunately the left and the right are guarded, but the one who survives is only a girl, so she has to swallow her anger. Aunt Jin is weak by nature, and Han Suyin's identity is not as good as Han Yingrui, so she always has to be angry.

There is a curse saying, "Your mother and maid are also", but her biological mother is indeed a slave. is obviously in the name of the fourth sister, but she has to be frequently angry with Han Yingrui. Although Han Suyin said that she was the adopted daughter of the eldest lady on her face, the unpleasant things she had with the eldest lady in the long room were already known to everyone. If it weren't for Aunt Jin telling her to help take care of Han Yingrui, she wouldn't have come to provoke this naughty girl.

Han Yingrui saw that her face was not good, and she didn't know why, she deliberately sprinkled salt on her wound: "That's right, Shu Chu naturally helps Shu Chu...... Alas! It's also pitiful, raised by his mother since he was a child, and he really thought that he could be compared with his concubine, but it's a pity that he was reincarnated in the belly of his concubine...... Don't look at your own identity? How can you be as good as my sister! ”

The sister in Han Yingrui's mouth is the proudest girl of the Han family's generation, the daughter of the Han family, Han Ruoshuang from the Ruan family. At the age of eighteen this year, he has been married for more than four years, has a son, and is also like a fish in water in his in-law's family. Han Ruoshuang was personally taught by the old lady since she was a child, she was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was proficient in less than a year after marrying He Qiuyan, the third son of Dingyuan Bo, who was praised by everyone, and was a model for the girls in the family and even in the circle of nobles in the capital.

Han Suyin didn't know how to answer, and when she was at a loss, the curtains in the back room were raised, and then Miao Yan helped the old lady in. The ladies, girls, and aunts were all busy getting up to say goodbye, and they no longer cared about the boring quarrel that had occurred in the past few days. The old lady bowed her head and motioned for everyone to get up, followed by thanksgiving, and then sat down.

"Look at this room!" The old lady sat down and said with a smile: "Today, the seventh child is here and will come to catch up, ouch!" The old lady has always said with emotion that he regrets that he only has two daughters in his life, and one has not been able to stay by his side often, which is good, we have only become a relative of the three sons, and we have already added seven daughters to God! ”

Everyone laughed, and Ruan said, "Hello daughter! The granddaughters of this house will all come to serve the old lady in the future, and the old lady is so blessed! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! It's just that my old lady looks at it, and she doesn't need to serve me! Learn etiquette well, learn the rules, and marry beautifully! It's like Ruoshuang, give my Han family a façade and add face! ”

"That fourth lady has a great responsibility!" Ma Shi smiled: "I added eleven or twelve sisters in one go, this teaching responsibility is not great!" ”

The old lady only pursed her lips slightly and said, "The birth of two sisters in the second room is also a happy event." Hey? The second daughter-in-law didn't come? ”

Miao Yan hurriedly said: "Oh, back to the old lady's words, the second lady said that Sister Yue got up early and made a lot of trouble, and Sister Yao was not very happy, saying that she would be coaxed for a while, and come back to the old lady in half a moment to say goodbye!" But I must be coming, and I will ask the old lady to wait forgivingly for a while, and I am also allowed to bring the two sisters to take a look at Sister Yi, and get close! ”

The old lady nodded: "Yes! The doll is out of confinement, and it is the time when it is easy to make trouble. Originally, I remember when Rou'er first hugged me, she also loved to make trouble! She paused and said, "It's the mother's back then, it's a little different." ”

"That's it! Niangniang is different from that ordinary girl. Ma said casually, and the meaning naturally also covered that the eleventh sister could not achieve a big thing. Ma has always been a brainless, otherwise she wouldn't even be able to keep her husband, the aunts in the house one after another, both of them gave birth to Haier before her, if it weren't for her good life, the eldest grandson would have been born.

The old lady beckoned to Miaoyan, tilted her head and whispered, "What's the name of the seventh child?" ”

"Back to the old lady: the seventh sister's maiden name is Su Yi. The seventh sister was born on Chinese New Year's Eve, and Aunt Cen said that Chinese New Year's Eve was not as gorgeous as Suzhai in Zhanzhong, Suzhai was suitable for the population, and the rice was lovely, which was taken from this. ”

The old lady laughed: "I can't imagine that even when I named my daughter, Jinzhi still used all she wanted, and she was bored and made limericks every day." ”

The old lady waved her hand, letting Miao Yan retreat back, and then beckoned Su Yi: "Yi'er, come." Su Yi stepped forward and saluted, and Fang stepped forward slowly.

"Look, what a courtesy! I think it was a punishment for your mother yesterday, I'm scared! ”

Ruan Shi hurriedly got up and knelt down and said, "Ouch, old lady! The daughter-in-law knew that the punishment was heavy, and yesterday the master came back to say that I was going to come back, and today you are saying it again! Is this preparing to teach the daughter-in-law to die of shame! ”

"Hurry up!" The old lady slapped her thigh angrily: "Kneel at every turn!" It's unlucky to be still dead! ”

Ruan Shi got up and sat down with an embarrassed look: "Yes, the old lady taught me a lesson." ”

"Tsk! This girl, ouch! What a Peugeot! The old lady took Su Yi's hand and looked left and right, and said with satisfaction: "It's like Jinzhi back then!" ”

Aunt Cen hurriedly said: "The concubine is fortunate to serve the lord and give birth to Sister Yi, this is already a great blessing, how can you ask the girl to be like a concubine!" ”

"You're out of the way! The old lady laughed: "I didn't know I had a white-eyed wolf!" Back then, I raised you as my own daughter! She snorted, "Yo! Now count me down! ”

"That's right! It's the concubine who said something wrong, the old lady really takes care of the concubine in every way, and the concubine's blessing is really great. ”

"Yes, so you insisted on going with Yi'er at that time, I also think it's a pity!"

"Yes, the concubine was also distressed about the girl back then, afraid that others would not take good care of her, and Sister Yi was born weak and sickly, and the concubine was not at ease, so she insisted on following, and later found out that everyone else took great care of the girl Jin, but the concubine was a villain."

"Haha," the old lady smiled, "yes, you girl, I don't even know what to say about you!" ”

said so, in fact, the old lady seemed to have a mirror in her heart. It's also a pity, if it weren't for the accident in Aunt Cen's family back then, and she was too young, Han Xiu would have married the Ruan family, and she happened to have the strong strength of the Ruan family. And Aunt Cen's child is her own granddaughter, with blood in the blood, looking at the cowering appearance in front of her, she is still somewhat distressed.

The old lady gently stroked Su Yi's hand: "Su Yi, this name is good." She looked back at Miao Yan, who immediately understood, picked up the curtain and went to the back to order everything to be included in the score. It's funny to say, obviously everyone in the mansion knows about Su Yi's existence, and the seventh place in the ranking has always been retained, but no one is willing to say, why don't you put the seventh sister on the family tree? No one said, not a single one, everyone pretended not to know, until now Su Yi returned home, and the old lady had to mention it.

After all, the old lady is old, and no matter how ruthless she was back then, she is now soft. Who doesn't want the whole family and beautiful children and grandchildren around their knees in their later years? She pulled Su Yi over to the front, got a little closer, put Su Yi's shoulder and let her face everyone, she patted Su Yi's shoulder and said, "Come, grandmother will introduce you, presumably most of these people you don't recognize!" ”

Su Yi nodded timidly. The old lady pointed at the lady on the seat first: "This is the third daughter-in-law, do you recognize it?" Your mother! Ouch, you must know that she punished you yesterday - she's a powerful guy! Okay, to be serious, you must have heard that our Han family went out, your eldest sister Ruoshuang is her daughter! She teaches her daughter a set, and she will teach you well, you have to listen to her well! ”

Seeing Su Yi nodding, the old lady pointed to the person in the seat again: "This is your eldest aunt, your eldest uncle's match; Your second aunt hasn't arrived yet, but you should have seen one yesterday. ”

Ma almost couldn't hold back the smile on his face for a while, the old lady's words were really clear and thorough! I'm afraid that the new girl doesn't know that this Rong family is not a yuan match, and it was carried by her aunt?

The old lady didn't notice it, and turned to her aunt's side again: "In the long room, Aunt He, Aunt Liu, Aunt Zhang, and Aunt Zhu; In the third room, there are Aunt Jin and Aunt Cui; This grandmother has to introduce you well, she is Aunt Hua," the old lady pointed to one of the pregnant women with a big belly, "She is the youngest of these women!" Sixteen years old, he is in the second room, and now he is pregnant with a little brother, maybe it is the eldest son of your second uncle! ”

"The old lady likes to joke about the concubine!" Aunt Hua stomped her feet anxiously: "My lord is away all the year round, and he only comes back once a year, so it's not easy to transfer back, and now there is no one!" Over the years, the second room has come out of the house, but recently, the lady has been angry and has two sisters, as for the son, the lady has no such blessing, how can there be a concubine! ”

Su Yi quietly glanced at Aunt Hua, it was not easy to say secretly, although she grew up in Zhuangzi, but she also listened and watched a lot when the women of several families fought. This Aunt Hua must have some means to keep the child in her womb before the eldest son in the second room is born. Su Yi nodded with admiration, and saw the salute one by one.

The old lady pointed to the girls with unmarried buns on the spot under her left hand: "Here—it's all girls!" Boss Ruoshuang thinks that you have already heard that she has already married, this is the fourth Su Yin, as well as the old Ba Yingrui and the old Jiuchenyi, all of whom are sisters in your third room; The fifth Xinyi, the sixth Chanyuan, Chanyuan, don't look at her as old, in fact, she is only a few months longer than you, they are all the daughters of your uncle in the long house; And eleven or twelve......"

Outside the door, a daughter-in-law preached: "Old lady, the second lady has come to greet you with two sisters, eleven and twelfth!" ”

The old lady hurriedly said, "Yo! Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here! Fast! Come in, please. ”

Then I saw a dignified woman combing Chaoyun's incense bun and a light pink skirt, slowly pacing in, and the two women behind her hugged a pink and lovely little girl. "Come on!" The old lady smiled and beckoned, called them to her, and introduced Su Yi: "This is your second aunt!" There are also the old eleven Yao'er and the old twelve Yue'er. ”

After receiving Su Yi's salute, Rong hurriedly stepped forward to greet the old lady: "Daughter-in-law, please the old lady's peace!" The daughter-in-law is late, please forgive the old lady! ”

"It doesn't matter! Sit down. The old lady waved her hand and asked with a smile: "Sister Yue'er is done?" ”

"Not really!" Rong sat down with the second nurse and said angrily: "Sister Yue really loves to make trouble!" My daughter-in-law made trouble for her, and I didn't sleep well all night! Until now, my daughter-in-law's head still hurts from jumping to the bottom. ”

The old lady nodded, and was about to say more, but was robbed by Ma: "The old lady also said that this girl is like a sister-in-law back then, and she loves to make trouble." That dare is good, my sister-in-law didn't have children, so I regarded several sisters as my own children, I thought about it, in the future, Sister Yue can be as good as Aunt Rou, at night, don't talk about the second brother and sister, I'm afraid I can wake up with a smile even if I dream! ”

Everyone smiled and remembered Ma's previous words, but Rong didn't know what he meant, so he talked for a long time. The old lady diverted the subject, and she said that she would go back and live for a long time. The old lady's face was already a little helpless, the long room and the second room were both unbearable little family looks, a little thing had to be a fight, and if you won the fight, you couldn't get anything, just a happy picture. The old lady simply lifted the lid to drink tea, and when she saw Rong's words, she said slowly: "The fourth daughter-in-law will enter the door in a few days, although it is said that the marriage is temporarily delayed because of the move, but the preparations must be done well, and it must not be sloppy!" The eldest daughter-in-law, I won't toss you to do something for you, the second daughter-in-law is full of children's affairs, and she has to take care of Aunt Hua's child, so I will still hand over this matter to the third daughter-in-law, but now the affairs in this house are in the hands of the third daughter-in-law. ”

The ladies and aunts hurriedly said yes respectfully.

Su Yi's position was far away, but she could see Rong's small movements from the angle, and she saw that Rong's time was almost up, so she stretched out her hand and reached into Sister Yue's swaddling clothes, grabbed a piece of meat and twisted it. Sister Yue started crying again, and Rong quickly raised her hand and slapped her ass through the swaddling clothes: "It's really troublesome!" It's annoying! ”

"The child is still young!" The old lady hurriedly said, "You don't have to be so fierce. Since the child is tired, take her back, why bother with me, an old woman! Okay," she stretched out her hand and asked Miao Yan to help her up: "I'm almost done explaining things here, I'm tired, so I'll all disperse, Sister Yi stay." The old lady said that, and walked back with the help of Miao Yan, and Su Yi hurriedly followed into the inner room. After the group knelt down and sent the old lady back to the house, they went back to their respective homes.
