The news that the Li Mansion had set the time and place soon spread throughout the streets and alleys of the city, and the people in the neighborhood where Chu Hanlu once lived seemed even more unpeaceful. Those families with teenage daughters really seem to be overjoyed. Their first reaction was to think of a way to dredge Song Jingui, after all, her biological youngest daughter was now the fifth lady of the Li Mansion.

The main reasons why they willingly sent their daughter to the Li Mansion are, first, that Li Wenxuan's reputation in the eyes of the masses of the people has always been quite good; The second is that the slaves and maids who continue to stay or leave the Li Mansion through some of them are passed on by word of mouth, so that they can more or less understand the treatment of the slaves and maids in the mansion is excellent; The third is that fantasizing about a Taoist and a chicken dog ascending to heaven, and the once down-and-out Chu family has been transformed, which is a living example in front of them.

Thinking that it was better to do this kind of thing sooner rather than later, Liu Dajia pulled his unmarried third daughter, and brought some ordinary snacks, sweets, tea and other things to the Chu family. All day long, I either went to the opera garden to listen to the play, or went to the teahouse to listen to books, or Song Jingui, who was strolling around the street at will, did not go there this day, and stayed at home to talk to Chu Hanyue about her life's events.

Seeing that the door was not closed but wide open, Liu Dajiao, who was holding the left hand of the third daughter, was timid, and at the same time probed his brain and looked inside, he shouted inside with a loud voice: "Song Jingui, Sister Song, are you at home?" Hearing someone outside shouting his Song Jingui, he left his daughter and walked out of the house. She walked straight to the gate, and when she saw that the gate was not closed, she scolded her youngest son in her heart for being in a hurry to reincarnate, and forgot to close the door when she went out.

Approached Song Jingui to take a look at the person. immediately recognized Liu Dajia and her third daughter Xie Sanmei. Noticing that the other party was holding a gift in her hand, she did not turn people away, but wanted to show them that her family was living very well and comfortably, and the purpose was nothing more than to let their mother and daughter go back and publicize themselves.

Song Jingui, who was smiling, also showed false enthusiasm to invite the mother and daughter to invite them: "It turned out to be you!" I've been admitting this for a long time. It was not easy to recognize it. ”

"You are a noble person, and it is normal not to remember us. When you move away, I miss you. When I think of you having a lot of things, it's not good to bother. It's the New Year, and I'm going to be cheeky enough to bother you. Seeing her well-dressed Liu Dajiao, she naturally had different tastes and thoughts in her heart, and said with a polite smile on her face.

"We've all been neighbors for years. You say this, but you can see the outside. If you want to come, you can come at any time. There's no need for such politeness. Song Jingui, who was pretending to be fake, was leading the way for them in front of him, and on the other hand, he put on a pampered appearance, and began to show off intentionally: "Today, your luck is really good enough." If this is on a weekday, even if you come, you won't see me. Don't laugh when I say it. Last night. I thought the Jinhua ham was refreshing, so I greedily ate a few more bites. He drank two more glasses of wine, and slept for an extra hour. When I got up, I felt very sleepy, and I didn't want to go there. ”

followed her into Liu Dajia, who walked into the outer room of the main house, and said with a smile: "Hearing you say this, I am too lucky." I think I borrowed your blessing this year. Sure you'll have a good fortune. Seeing that Song Jingui, who could speak, was happy in her heart, she naturally introduced him into the room. Chu Hanyue, who was sitting on the kang, didn't show any reaction when she saw them coming in, still with a rather lazy expression. Peel the dried longan and eat.

During the Chinese New Year, Xie Sanmei, who pulled some flower cloth from the house and made this flower dress, saw that the other party was eating well, and she hadn't seen it much, so she pulled her mother's hand and said greedily: "Mother, I also want to eat the one that my sister ate." ”

Liu Dajiao, who turned his head and glanced at her, pretended to be fierce and vicious, and said sharply: "Dead woman, you are really ignorant, that is not something you can eat." Song Jingui, who laughed a little, was quite proud of being envied by this kind of life in his heart, so he approached the kang bed, stretched out his hand and grabbed a large handful of dried longan from the kang table, and then turned around and approached Xie Sanmei's body, and stretched out his hand to hand it to her.

The palms of the two hands were closed together, showing the shape of a "bowl", Xie Sanmei took it without refusing at all, and said with a very happy look on her face: "Aunt Jin Gui, you are so good." ”

Stretched out his right palm and touched Song Jingui on the top of her head, just smiled faintly, and said in his heart that he was quite satisfied with the superiority of his current life: "Eat slowly, I have what I have here." When you're done eating, I'll catch it for you. ”

Liu Dajia, who knew that this thing was not cheap, was not good at scolding his daughter again, so he had to continue to accompany him with a smile and said: "Poor child, with shallow eyelids, I haven't seen this thing, let alone eaten it." I'm sorry to let you break the bank. ”

"It's understandable that the little girl's family is greedy for a while, after all, we all came from her age." Song Jingui, who was sitting on the edge of the kang by holding her hand, continued to say hypocritically.

Seeing that they not only ate dried longan, but also took it out at will to entertain Liu Dajia without feeling distressed, thinking of the things he was carrying in his hand, he couldn't help but feel shabby and couldn't send it away. Zhilu Dao had already taken it but couldn't take it back, and her face was very embarrassed: "I didn't bring anything good, and I will play with you." ”

Song Jingui, who had just taken over the hand, did not stay in his hand too much to be polite, but casually put it aside and said: "Come on, why bother with something?" I'm the one who broke the bank. ”

Liu Dajiao, who was smiling bitterly on his face, knew very well the purpose of coming here to beg her: "Third sister, she is also thirteen years old. You also know the actual situation of our family. This family has always been very difficult, and it is rare to meet the Li Mansion this time to recruit slaves and maids, so I want to send her to the mansion. I also heard that the Li Mansion is a big family, and the requirements for selecting people are also strict. A primary election is to be personally checked by the chief housekeeper and the second housekeeper in the house. On top of that, I don't know anyone there, so I'm here to ask for your help. ”

Song Jingui, who had long expected that she was pulling her daughter to see her for this purpose, turned her head to look at Xie Sanmei, who was eating dried longan, and said bluntly: "Look at your daughter's appearance, at most she will be eleven years old!" (To be continued......)
