Near noon on April 25, two ox carts stopped in front of the gate of Chenjiawu Fort, and two maidservants came down to greet the Chen tenants outside the Dock Fort very familiarly, and walked towards the west building after entering the gate.

When Laifu saw it, he said happily: "Xiaochan, Qingzhi, you are here, go and see the master, I am looking forward to you." Let Zeng Yuhuan take Xiaochan and Qingzhi upstairs.

Xiaochan and Qingzhi are Ding Youwei's two maids, who used to marry with Ding Youwei to Chenjiawu, lived here for six years, and are very familiar with everything here, Chen's mother Li is kind and kind, so Xiaochan and Qingzhi are very attached to the Chen family in the West Building, and they pity Zongzhi and Run'er.

Seeing Chen's mother Li, the two maids fell to the ground together and greeted the hostess.

Chen's mother, Li, instructed Aunt Ying to summon them to come, while asking about Youwei's current situation.

Chen Caozhi came in with Zongzhi and Run'er, Run'er had a sweet mouth, and immediately shouted: "You are Sister Xiaochan, you are Sister Qingzhi, Run'er didn't admit her mistake, right?" ”

Xiaochan and Qingzhi were full of smiles, bent their legs and squatted to hold the hands of Run'er and Zongzhi, looking up and down, their love came from the bottom of their hearts.

Chen's mother, Li, knew that they could not delay and that there were still nearly forty miles to go back, so she immediately instructed Zeng Yuhuan to prepare lunch, entertain the two Dingfu tenants who were driving, Xiaochan and Qingzhi, and set off after eating.

Xiaochan was only twelve years old when she first arrived in Chenjiawu, Chen Caozhi was six years old at that time, she often took Chen Caozhi to play, she liked this handsome child very much, now Chen Caozhi is the same every year, the more he grows up, the more handsome he is, Chen Caozhi was not as tall as her when he came last year, and now he looks taller than her.

Xiaochan was very happy when she learned that Chen Caozhi was going with her this time, and said to Chen Caozhi: "Xiaolangjun, that's right, my lady often misses you, you didn't go with me last year, my lady felt very uncomfortable, and shed tears." ”

In the Wei and Jin dynasties, the servants called the daughters of the master's family either as a lady, a little lady, or a girl, and there was no such title as a young lady at that time.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, three ox carts left Chenjiawu and drove north, one of them was driven by Laifu, Chen's mother Li ordered Laifu to also go to the county, there are many fields in the West Building, there are not enough tenants, and Laifu is going to hire two more tenants this time.

At the same time, there was also Laide, who was not used to riding in a car, and walked with the ox cart.

Although the two tenants of Dingfu drove the ox cart for a long time, they were in a good mood, and Chen's mother, Li, would never be stingy, and this time they each rewarded the two of them with a horse and a silk, which was worth five baht and five hundred yuan.

Chen Caozhi also walked at first, and looked back frequently as he walked, and his white-haired mother leaned against the door and looked at it, and she had to stop without seeing the ox cart.

Qingzhi took Zongzhi and Xiaochan and Run'er each took an ox cart, the wheels were round, the path was crooked, and they gradually moved away from Chenjiawu and Jiuyao Mountain.

There are no windows on both sides of the carriage of the ox cart, and there is a canopy woven of fine bamboo, painted with tung oil, which will not leak rain, and there is a cover in front of the carriage, and a little in the back, and the cover and a little are similar to the partition of the car door, and there is also a cloth curtain, Xiaochan has been teasing the curtain behind the car and looking at Chen Caozhi who was walking, and said to Run'er beside him: "Look when your ugly uncle is tired?" I should be shouting soon, your ugly uncle is very weak. ”

Run'er said: "Uncle Ugly is very good now, he climbs Jiuyao Mountain every day, and he has to eat three bowls of wheat rice for every meal." ”

"Oh!" The slight oblique sunlight in the afternoon was dazzling, Xiaochan squinted her eyes and stared at Chen Caozhi wearing a small crown of fine yarn and wearing a large-sleeved shirt of arrowroot, Chen Caozhi's gait was calm, there was no panting, his face was no longer as white and blue as before, but a faint red, his body was delicate, his temperament was gentle, and his eyes changed very much, indescribable, in short, it was very charming.

"Xiao Langjun, come, come to the car, ride with us." Xiaochan called.

Chen Caozhi said: "Can you sit down, Sister Xiaochan?" When I was tired of walking, I took the Rifle's car. ”

Run'er "Gege" smiled: "Uncle Ugly is also called Sister Xiaochan, it's so fun!" ”

Xiaochan wrinkled her nose and said, "Your ugly uncle is as old as you and I took him to play, why don't you call me sister?" - Come up, sit down, Run'er is a small person. "I ordered the tenants to stop.

Chen Caozhi got into the car and sat down next to Xiaochan, Xiaochan hugged Run'er, Yingying's eyes stared at Chen Caozhi for a moment, without saying a word or moving, and after a while, he suddenly laughed and pointed at Chen Caozhi: "Hahaha, Xiao Langjun blushed, Cao Zhi Xiaolangjun actually knew that he was blushing, hahaha." Smiled and smiled, and reached over to twist Chen Caozhi's cheeks, this is the action she used to use before, Chen Caozhi was pink and tender when she was a child, she loved to twist Chen Caozhi's little face, although she was blamed by Ding Youwei, she was repeatedly taught.

The carriage was narrow, Chen Caozhi didn't dodge, he was screwed, so ashamed, and felt very kind, among the four maids of his sister-in-law Ding Youwei, Sister Xiaochan was the best to him, but according to the age of his previous life, he was twenty-seven years old, and the twenty-one-year-old Xiaochan was just a little sister, and it was ridiculous to be teased by her.

Run'er's little clever coaxed: "Uncle Ugly often twists Run'er's face, and Sister Xiaochan helps Run'er screw it back." ”

Xiaochan only twisted it once and didn't twist it again, because Chen Caozhi's dark eyes made her feel that the young man in front of her was no longer a child, and already had the charm of an adult man, so she had to pay attention to her words and deeds.

Xiaochan has a petite body, a round face, and very flexible eyes, although she no longer twists Chen Caozhi's cheeks, her eyes do not let go of Chen Caozhi, she looks up and down very closely, and nods: "Xiaolangjun has really grown up a lot, and my lady must be surprised to see it, I haven't seen it for two years." ”

Chen Caozhi asked, "Sister Xiaochan, is she okay sister-in-law?" ”

The smile on Xiaochan's face quickly receded, glanced at Run'er, shook her head and said: "It's not too good, lady, she misses Zongzhi and Run'er very much, and when she woke up in the morning, the pillow towels were wet and a big piece, and she was crying in her dreams." ”

This sentence made Run'er cry, and the little tears flowed down, and she shouted: "Mother-"

Xiaochan hurriedly hugged and coaxed her: "Run'er, don't cry, if the lady knows that Xiaochan made Run'er cry, she will punish Xiaochan, Run'er doesn't want Xiaochan's sister to be punished, right?" Don't cry. ”

Run'er tried to stop crying, but the little tears couldn't stop, and the hard-hearted people who were sobbing and choking were sad when they saw it.

Chen Caozhi took Run'er's little hand and said: "Run'er, my mother doesn't like Run'er to cry and cry, my mother likes the obedient Run'er, Run'er who can recite the "Analects", and Run'er who can write the "Declaration Form" - by the way, when Run'er went to see her mother last year, will she recite the "Analects"? ”

Run'er was diverted, and finally stopped her grief, and said, "Run'er was only five years old last year, and she can't memorize a word of the Analects-"

Chen Caozhi said: "Then when Run'er sees her mother and recites the Analects to her mother, will her mother be very surprised and happy?" ”

Run'er's eyes narrowed with a smile, and she said crisply: "It will definitely be!" ”

When Chen Caozhi and Run'er were talking, Xiaochan looked at Chen Caozhi quietly with her back against the wall of the car, and felt that this young man was really different from before, he used to be a little flattering and stupid, but now, he is still likable, but the stupidity is gone, and there is a handsome and elegant atmosphere that Xiaochan can't say.

Xiaochan couldn't help but think: "In terms of demeanor alone, his brother Chen Qingzhi didn't seem to be as good as him back then." ”
