Nan Baozhu shuddered when he heard this.

She gently tugged on Nan Baoyi's sleeve and whispered, "Jiaojiao, let's go back to the backyard, right?" I came over early in the morning to see the excitement, and I haven't gone to say hello to my grandmother. ”

Nan Baoyi held her hand, tried to pass on the warmth to her, and gently responded "yes".

The sisters came to Songheyuan, where their grandmother was having breakfast.

The old man was kind and beckoned the two of them to eat together.

She listened to Nan Baozhu dance and talk about the tragic situation of Nanjing, and sighed: "There is an old saying: those who are content save water, and those who are greedy run out of water. ”

Nan Baoyi nodded secretly.

Cause and effect reincarnation, the crazy person in the previous life is the father, but in this life it is the turn of Nanjing, it can be seen that good and evil will be rewarded in the end, but sooner or later.

The old lady was afraid of scaring the two precious granddaughters, so she finished breakfast and said with a smile: "Today, I called a few ladies from Furong Street to enter the house and cut new clothes for spring. ”

"I've got new clothes to wear!"

Nan Baozhu was very happy, and pulled Nan Baoyi and ran to the fan, "Jiaojiao, look at it!" ”

Nan Baoyi looked.

On the inside of the red lacquer fan, two rows of shallow marks are scratched with a knife.

It is these years that she and Zhuzhu's height are notched.

Nan Baozhu took the knife handed by the maid, "In previous years, when I cut spring clothes, I would be a little taller than Jiaojiao, but I don't know who is taller this year?" After all, I'm a sister, so I'm definitely a little taller than you! ”

Nan Baoyi watched her scratch the mark.

Looking down, the notches were low and low.

Grandmother smiled kindly: "Those are the ones I carved for you when you were one or two years old." At that time, you were like white and tender little balls, only knee-high as me, trembling when you ran, and easily falling. I watched you run, and I chased after you and shouted, "Slow down, slow down...... I can always hold you before you fall. But now, my grandmother is old, and if you run, your grandmother will not be able to catch up! ”

Nan Baoyi's nose is sour.

She and Zhuzhu will continue to grow taller, marry each other in the future, and go further afield.

But the grandmother will spend the rest of her life in the ancestral house guarding this time, guarding the height marks left by the little granddaughters.

When she was a child, her grandmother hoped that she and Zhuzhu would run slower and not fall.

When she grew up, she wished that time would go slower and that her grandmother would not grow old again......

Grandmother......

Nan Baoyi's eyes were slightly red, for fear of being seen, so he hurriedly twisted his face to the side and quietly wiped his tears.

Today, she and Zhuzhu stayed in Songhe Courtyard to talk to their grandmother.

When the embroidery lady came, she measured her body again, chose different colors of Shu brocade, and chose their favorite clothing styles on the album sent by the embroidery girl.

After tossing, it was time for lunch.

The grandmother left them to eat, and the kitchenette made the two sisters' favorite dishes.

Nan Baoyi saw that the small kitchen had prepared apricot cheese to drink, so he proposed: "Grandmother, let the small kitchen prepare some corn juice and send it to Chaowen Yuan, the second brother likes to drink corn juice." ”

The old lady smiled: "Jiaojiao remembers your second brother's preferences. ”

"That's natural, last time in Jinyu Mantang, he didn't drink the whole pot, and he packed another pot."

When she spoke, there was a shallow joy in her eyes, and the delicate appearance of her little daughter was fully revealed.

The old lady guessed that she liked Xiao Yi without knowing it.

The child has such feelings, and she sees it in her eyes and thinks it is very beautiful.

Therefore, she smiled and told Mama Ji to do it.

After lunch, Nan Baozhu was a little sleepy.

"Let's go sleep behind the blue gauze cupboard," the old lady touched her little face lovingly, "the little girl sleeps more in the spring, and she can grow taller." Jiaojiao'er, you go to sleep together. ”

Nan Baoyi didn't want to sleep with Nan Baozhu at all.

Fortunately, the little grandfather didn't come with him today.

If it's just a kick of a bead, it's nothing.

Nan Baozhu fell asleep with a pillow, and when Nan Baoyi was sleeping in a daze, he heard Aunt Cheng's greeting outside.

There was another sound of rustling, and the maids and women who were waiting outside were all held back.

"Mother-in-law," Aunt Cheng's voice was steady, "I drank Liu Xiaomengjing's tea this morning, which can be regarded as a recognition of her status as a concubine." At noon, the kitchen sent a plate of hoarfrost dates, and it happened that Dr. Jiang came to check my pulse, but by mistake found that the hoarfrost on the dates was mixed with a lot of arsenic. I ordered the maid to secretly investigate, and I found Liu Xiaomeng's head. ”

Nan Baoyi was completely sleepy.

She opened her eyes.

She didn't know if Liu Xiaomeng would do such a thing, but there was no doubt that Aunt Cheng was obviously not going to let Liu Xiaomeng go.

This is the clear way to cross the grandmother.

There was silence outside for a moment, and my grandmother's voice was a little low: "Liu Xiaomeng has been an old man for more than 30 years, and this patience and heart are really terrifying. It is inevitable that she will make waves again in the future, and this person really can't stay. ”

Nan Baoyi hugged the futon, and secretly said that grandmother was really decisive.

But when I think about it, my grandmother was in charge of the huge Nan family, and she had vigorous and resolute means when she was young, and she must be even more so when she is older.

In her previous life, that is, she had to be close to Liu Xiaomeng, so she never made a ruthless move.

Aunt Cheng said: "Mother-in-law, then I ......"

"Do it cleanly."

"The daughter-in-law understands. As for the South Rouge ......"

Grandmother snorted lightly: "Look at it, it's not a good girl, it's a bad belly." My family's delicate marriage contract, wasn't it snatched away by her? If you have a virtue with her mother, you know that you are worried about other men. That's it, and put it in front of you first, it is naturally better to teach it well, if it is not good to teach, Zuo will not give a dowry, and send her to marry the Cheng family next year, which is out of sight. ”

There was no sound outside.

Nan Baoyi leaned sideways inward and reached out to poke Nan Baozhu's face.

Grandmother and Aunt Cheng made a move, and Liu Xiaomeng was already a mortal game.

There is nothing to worry about anymore.

The warm incense entered the account, and the girl yawned and gradually became sleepy.

The sound of footsteps sounded slowly.

The old lady walked to the back of the blue gauze cupboard, gently lifted the curtain, and the pair of granddaughters slept soundly.

She bent down and kindly tucked the corners of the quilt for them, "Sleep, sleep...... With my grandmother here, no one would dare to hurt my precious granddaughter......"

The news of Liu's death came two days later.

Nan Baoyi stayed in the large study of Chaowen Academy, holding Xiao Yi's manuscript and carefully copying his handwriting.

"How did you die?"

She asked the lotus leaf.

Lotus Ye inquired about the news from the front yard, ran quickly on the road, and his face was flushed: "I heard that I fell into the water last night, and it swelled this morning, so I floated up from the water!" ”

Falling overboard......

Nan Baoyi chuckled.

Lotus Ye said mysteriously: "Miss, in addition to Liu Xiaomeng who fell into the water, there were two other people who also went west last night, guess who?" ”

Nan Baoyi was curious: "Is it someone I know?" ”
