Chapter 107: Visiting Ouyang's Family
Feng Cheng and Ouyang Jing took a carriage to Ouyang's house together, and after walking for a while, the carriage stopped.
"Sister Feng, my house has arrived." Ouyang Jing jumped down first and pointed to a house not far away.
Feng Cheng then got out of the carriage and raised his eyes to look at the house.
To her surprise, from what Qian San heard about the situation of the Ouyang family, she always thought that Ouyang Qing would live in a wide mansion compound after he became developed, but now it seems that it is just an ordinary house.
Of course, it is more decent and spacious than the surrounding houses, and it looks like it has been renovated.
"Sister Feng, let's go in." Ouyang Jing held Feng Cheng's hand, and was in a good mood.
Most of the friends she usually associated with grew up playing, but her father didn't like her to play with her childhood friends, so few friends came to the house.
As for those girls from rich families, they don't really look down on her family's butcher background, so she naturally won't get up to it to be boring.
Sister Feng is a friend who fell in love with her and was able to generously invite her home as a guest.
Ouyang Jing took Feng Cheng's hand and opened the door happily: "Mother, I'm back with a friend." ”
Feng Cheng took the opportunity to look around.
The courtyard is not too big, there is a moon hole door on the right hand side connected to the courtyard, and on the left hand side is a row of side rooms, and a door is opened next to the three main houses to the back. There was a stout pomegranate tree planted in the courtyard, and it looked like it was an old tree, and the pomegranate the size of a child's fist was pressed all over the branches.
Soon a woman walked out of the room briskly, with a gentle smile on her lips: "It's Miss Feng, right?" ”
There are guests coming to the house, Ouyang Jing sent the maid back one step in advance to report the news, and the Ouyang family got the news and was ready.
"Auntie." Feng Cheng bowed slightly, and secretly looked at Ouyang.
Compared with Ouyang Qing's face, Ouyang is a woman with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, Xu has suffered in her early years, and her exposed skin is a little rough, and with the sorrowful lines between her eyebrows and eyes, she looks not young.
Aside from the hidden secrets that you know, you can also see that this is a woman whose life is not going well.
"It's hot outside, Miss Feng, come into the house." Ouyang beckoned Feng Cheng to go to the main house.
Ouyang Jing opened her mouth and said, "Mother, I'll take Sister Feng to me." ”
Ouyang nodded with a smile: "It's okay, you little girls are more comfortable together." Miss Feng doesn't have to see outside, she treats this place as her home. ”
Ouyang's thoughtfulness made Feng Cheng feel her love for her daughter more and more deeply.
Being so enthusiastic about the friends brought by his daughter naturally stems from his concern for his daughter.
"Sister Feng, come with me." Ouyang Jing pulled Feng Cheng through the moon gate leading to the backyard, and pointed to a road, "That's my house." ”
By now, Feng Cheng had a general understanding of the layout of the Ouyang family.
This is a house that can barely be regarded as a two-entry house, a few rooms in the backyard should be the residence of the five sisters, the front room is occupied by Ouyang Qing and his wife, and the side room wants to live in the concubine's family, as for the separate cross-courtyard should be Ouyang Lei's residence, so that he can study without being disturbed.
Next, he chatted casually with Ouyang Jing, confirming Feng Cheng's guess.
"The family is a little cramped, is Sister Feng not used to it?"
"There are small benefits, and the family will be closer and more lively."
Ouyang Jing thought about some family members and pursed the corners of her lips: "I prefer to be quiet." ”
Feng Cheng said quietly: "I see that there is also a cross-courtyard, and through the door of the Moon Cave, I can see a bush of cultivated bamboo, where it should be quiet." ”
"That's where my eldest brother lives." When Ouyang Lei was mentioned, Ouyang Jing felt bored, but it was not easy to show it in front of Feng Cheng, "Originally, it was not my home, but later there were many people in the family who expanded, and it happened that the house was sold next door, so I bought it there and changed it into a yard for the eldest brother to live in." ”
"I see."
Ouyang Jing pointed out the window and smiled: "This backyard is also expanded, and it used to be just a house to enter, like the neighbors lived." ”
lived in a big house, and her food and clothing were better, but she found that the smiles on her mother's face were getting less and less.
She even found that her mother often cried secretly, but she couldn't ask why.
Thinking of this, Ouyang sighed quietly.
"When I first came in, I saw a big pomegranate tree in the courtyard, and Sister Ouyang will soon be able to eat pomegranates."
At the mention of the pomegranate tree, Ouyang Jing swept away the sadness and said with a smile: "Yes, you can eat it in another month." Sister Feng, let me tell you, the pomegranates of my pomegranate tree are sweet, and every time the pomegranates are ripe, my mother will pick some of them and send them to the neighbors, and beware of some leather boys coming to steal pomegranates......"
"It looks like a tree that has been around for years." Feng Cheng said casually.
Ouyang Jing nodded: "This pomegranate tree has been there since I can remember, when I expanded the house, I felt that it was a little blocking the sun, and I wanted to cut it down, but then I still didn't give up." ”
"It's a pity to cut down the tree that I grew up with."
Ouyang Jing smiled: "My eldest brother likes to eat pomegranates from that tree, and he won't let him cut them." ”
"No matter what, Sister Ouyang still has a good mouth."
"Yes, when the pomegranate is ready to eat, Sister Feng must come to eat the pomegranate."
"Okay." Feng Cheng smiled and agreed, but sighed in his heart.
Whether you can eat the pomegranates of the Ouyang family depends on whether the pomegranate tree is buried or not.
After having lunch at Ouyang Jing's place and taking a short rest, Feng Cheng went to the main house to say goodbye to Ouyang.
Ouyang sent Feng Cheng out of the house: "Miss Feng remembers that she often comes to play with Jing'er. ”
Feng Cheng smiled like a flower: "Don't worry, aunt, I will." You don't have to send it, or your niece will be upset. ”
Ouyang stopped and told Ouyang Jing: "Send Miss Feng." ”
"I still need my mother to say it." Ouyang Jing kept sending Feng Cheng to the carriage outside the gate, and said reluctantly, "Sister Feng, come and play with me when you have time in a few days." ”
"Okay."
At this time, a voice sounded: "Big sister." ”
Feng Cheng looked back and saw a young man in a cyan robe standing not far away, looking this way.
"It's my eldest brother." Ouyang Jing quickly whispered a word, and walked over to greet Ouyang Lei.
"That's your friend?" Ouyang Lei glanced at the carriage, but found that the young and jade-looking girl had already gotten into the carriage and went away.
Ouyang Jing saw that Feng Cheng was gone, but he breathed a sigh of relief: "Why did the eldest brother come back so early?" ”
"What about you?" Ouyang Lei looked displeased when he saw his sister change the topic.
Ouyang Jing said lightly: "It's my new friend." ”
Ouyang Lei looked at the direction in which the carriage was leaving, and his tone was inexplicable: "No wonder I haven't seen it before." ”
Ouyang Jing frowned: "Isn't the eldest brother preparing for the autumn festival?" ”
"My business doesn't have to worry about my eldest sister." Ouyang Lei said lukewarmly and walked to the door.
Ouyang Jing stared at Ouyang Lei's back and pursed her lips tightly.
Such a brother is really chilling.
