Chapter 55: Please enter the urn
The old lady was sitting on a small black lacquered pestle, stretching her legs into the wooden basin to burn her feet. The big girl Rose squatted on the ground to massage the old lady's feet, and Lilac waited with a towel on the side, occasionally laughing and coaxing the old lady to be happy.
"Old lady, the third lady is here."
The little girl replied, and then lifted the bead curtain sideways for Chu Junlan.
Chu Junlan took Zi Yan into the house and walked to the inner room with a smile: "Grandmother." ”
Under the orange light, Chu Junlan is as soft as a painting, with a soft smile and a gentle temperament, compared with the one who fights in public and has infinite manpower, she seems to have changed a person.
"Why is this happening?" The old lady's tone was neither salty nor light.
Chu Junlan said with a smile: "Back to grandmother, there was an urgent matter in the eldest princess's mansion early this morning, so she picked me up halfway, and I didn't come back until now." Don't hide it from your grandmother, greet you every day, see your health and I can feel a lot more sure, I didn't give you a hello today, I'm not used to it, so I rushed to this time, grandmother don't bother me. ”
When the old lady heard this, her heart was very ironing, and no matter how much water she said, it made people feel comfortable when she heard it.
"Sit down. What are you doing standing. Lilac, give you the third lady fruit to eat. ”
"Hey." Lilac answered, and hurried to prepare the fruit plate.
Chu Junlan took a pestle and sat not far from the old lady, chatting with the old lady as usual.
In the end, the topic turned to the matter of the second master Chu Caijun entering Beijing.
"Counting the days, the second uncle's family is almost here, right?"
The old lady favored her youngest son, she liked to hear this the most, and immediately nodded with interest: "Yes, the family is going to be reunited!" ”
"Grandmother is a blessed person, her children teach so well, and her children and grandchildren are full of children, how many people envy you."
The old lady smiled and nodded triumphantly.
Chu Junlan took the opportunity to say: "Grandmother, I have an idea, say it, grandmother can help me get an idea?" ”
"You say." The old lady raised her eyebrows.
"When the second uncle and two aunts enter Beijing, they have to bring six children and three aunts, not to mention the maids. Our house is not spacious enough, and a single guest house cannot be opened by the second uncle and two aunts. ”
The old lady nodded, frowning worriedly: "I think so too, but the capital rice beads are worth every inch of land, your father can save a family business, and it is not easy to have a house of his own, although your second uncle has silver, he can't find a suitable house to live in temporarily, and I want to live together as a family, and I don't want them to go out to live." ”
"Grandmother misunderstood. The granddaughter didn't mean to let the second uncle's family go out to live, the granddaughter thought, my Juyan Building has just been built, there are many upper and lower rooms, if there are two people in a room, it can just live in the second uncle and two aunts, four cousins and two cousins, and the people will live together. I am willing to give the yard to the second uncle's family to live in, I don't know what my grandmother means? ”
The old lady's eyes lit up, nodded with joy, and urged the rose to wipe her feet.
"Good boy! Good boy! To tell you the truth, I have this idea, just because the courtyard was renovated by your father in order to make you marry, and your marriage with the Gongding palace is important, I am not embarrassed to tell you, you can think of Qian to let your second uncle's family, it's really good! ”
The old lady got up with the soft-soled embroidered shoes, and went to the front and grabbed Chu Junlan's hand: "Good boy, you are really sensible, you are worthy of being a girl raised by the Lu family, much stronger than those aunts!" ”
Chu Junlan smiled, "It's all taught by my grandmother, I'm young, and the rice I've eaten isn't as much salt as you've eaten, so what do you know?" ”
The old lady was comfortable, and asked with a smile: "But you vacate Juyanlou, where do you live by yourself?" ”
Chu Junlan lowered his eyes and pondered, his long eyelashes cast a fan-shaped shadow on Ruyu's face, and after a while, he smiled and said, "Why don't I move to live with my eldest brother, I am a doctor, and it is convenient to treat my eldest brother when I move in, not to mention that we are compatriots, we are not afraid of gossip, and there happens to be an empty house for my eldest brother to live in."
"That's good." The old lady nodded in agreement.
If it is the housewife of a big family, she will not agree, after all, there is a difference between men and women, and people who understand the rules "men and women have different seats at the age of seven", Chu Junlan and Chu Huating have to avoid suspicion even if they are compatriots of the same mother.
But the old lady was born in the countryside, and the life of a poor family has also passed, the family only has a big kang, and the father, mother, grandmother, girl, and boy sleep together in a bunk, where are there so many sayings?
Chu Junlan smiled and nodded: "Since the grandmother agreed, the granddaughter will pack up when she goes back." Give my granddaughter a few days to tidy up and move her things to my eldest brother's yard. ”
The old lady nodded happily, praised Chu Junlan for being sensible, and the next day, she even praised Chu Junlan's gentle etiquette in front of the whole family when the province was settled in the morning and dusk.
"That little hoof is crazy, and he finally lives in a new house, and he still has to give it to others!"
Chu Yunjiao returned to Chunfangyuan, and when she entered the room, she threw the big pillow on the clinical kang to the ground angrily.
"Sister, I'm going to beat her up!"
Chu Huayun finally finished copying the "Book of Filial Piety", gritted his teeth with hatred for Chu Junlan, and turned around and was about to rush out.
Aunt Sun hurriedly grabbed Chu Huayun and nodded at her son's forehead: "You idiot, why haven't you learned to suppress your temperament after copying the book a hundred times?" At the critical moment, you only know recklessness, can you also use your brain? ”
Chu Huayun's face was red, like an iron kettle boiling water, and he crossed his waist and said, "My mother will talk about me, have you thought of a good way?" ”
"Do you still want to?" Aunt Sun sneered, "Chu Junlan is smart, her decision is looking for death!" According to me, let's not do anything, just watch her let Juyanlou out, how angry your father will be. ”
"Mother?" Chu Yunjiao frowned suspiciously, and then suddenly.
They all forgot Chu Cailiang's attitude towards Chu Caijun's family entering Beijing.
At the beginning, I don't know who slandered the old lady with him, but Aunt Sun wanted Chu Caijun to enter Beijing, so she gave the old lady a step down, and Chu Cailiang almost beat Aunt Sun to the ground, and now he refuses to come to Chunfangyuan to rest.
Chu Junlan dared to let it do this, and Chu Cailiang didn't know how to get angry when he turned around.
Chu Yunjiao and Chu Huayun couldn't help but laugh when they thought about this, and made up their minds to pay attention to Chu Junlan's movements from time to time in the past few days to see how she was punished by her father.
Two days later, Zi Yan brought the tea to Chu Junlan and asked cautiously, "Third Miss?" When are we going to pack up and move? You told the old lady that we would move when we came back, and it had been two days. ”
Chu Junlan took a sip of tea, and leisurely took an idle book to read: "Don't worry, if I want to sort out my medicinal materials, it will take effort." ”
"Oh...... "But she didn't see that Miss San had cleaned up the medicinal herbs these days!"
Two more days passed.
"Third Miss, the eldest princess's mansion is here." Zi Yan smiled and led Ruan Zhangshi into the door.
