Chapter Forty-Three: I'm Moving In
Young Master Yan? Lu Yan?
Su Man was slightly stunned, and quickly turned his head to look out the door.
Outside the gate of the courtyard, a mother-in-law was looking inside, and when she saw Su Man coming out, she took two steps forward, bent her knees at Su Man, and said with a smile: "The old slave invited the eldest girl to be safe, the old slave is the housekeeper in the courtyard of Young Master Yan, our young master heard that the eldest girl had moved, so he specially prepared some things for the old slave to send over." ”
Su Man was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly let the woman into the courtyard.
The woman was not in a hurry to come in, but turned her head and beckoned behind her: "Carry everything in." ”
As the woman finished speaking, she saw three or four stout mother-in-law carrying the cage carefully into the yard.
Su Man was a little stunned for a while, and watched in a daze as the mother-in-law put the cage on the ground.
The woman smiled and opened the cage, bent her knees at Su Man, and asked, "Please show the girl and see where the things are placed." ”
Su Man came back to his senses and took two steps forward to look into the cage.
There is a bonsai in the cage, if it is an ordinary bonsai, it is not unusual, but the bonsai is a trunk twisted into gold thread, the leaves carved from jade are lush hanging on the branches, and occasionally two flowers made of tourmaline stone come out.
The bonsai is not big, but the tourmaline stones on it are the size of a fingernail, bright red and translucent, very beautiful.
Su Man has lived in this mansion for five years, what kind of good things have not been seen, originally she didn't think that this bonsai was rare, there were two or three similar styles in the old lady's warehouse, she had seen them all.
But after thinking about it, what kind of identity is Mrs. Su, it is not uncommon to have such a bonsai. But in the final analysis, Lu Yan is just a poor Hanlin who is fostered in the Su family, where did he get the money to buy such a thing.
Su Man pursed his lips, waved his hand and called the girl to move the bonsai out, and said to the woman with a smile: "Brother Yan really has a heart, I just feel that the table in that hall is a little empty, now it's okay, put such a pot, it's lively and beautiful." ”
Su Man said that he glanced at Dai Lan beside him, and Dai Lan hurriedly stepped forward, took out an eight-cent silver coin and stuffed it into the woman's hand: "It's hard for my mother to run this trip, our girl is still messing around, so I won't leave my mother to drink tea." Mom wants to thank Young Master Yan for our girl. ”
The mother-in-law happily took the silver bills, and said a basket of good things, and then led the three or four mothers-in-law away.
Mother Zhou, who had been standing aside and watching coldly, came over at this time, turned her head to look at the bonsai on the table, and said with a chuckle: "Young Master Yan really loves you, I'm afraid this bonsai has been saved for a long time." ”
Su Man was a little embarrassed by Zhou's mother: "I didn't want him to break the bank, but I can't return the things when he sends them." ”
The smile on Zhou's mother's face was still undiminished: "What's wrong with the young master treating you as his own sister, I'm afraid that the prince doesn't have such a hard time as the young master." ”
Su Man knew that Zhou's mother was just making fun of herself, but this was also true, it was really not easy for Lu Yan to treat a sister who had no blood relationship like this.
Mother Zhou saw that the little girls were almost cleaned up, so she smiled and bent her knees to Su Man: "The old lady is still waiting for a reply, and the old slave will retire first." ”
Su Man sent Zhou's mother to the gate of the hospital, and then said with a smile: "Mom will take the first step, and I will go back when I have almost cleaned up here." ”
Sending Zhou's mother away, Su Man turned back to the house again and commanded the little girl to clean up.
"Yo, your little courtyard is bright."
Su Man was talking to Dailan about what to put in the study when he heard a familiar laugh from the courtyard.
"Well, this magnolia tree is good, the flowers are like snow in layers, it's really beautiful."
When Su Man came out of the room, he saw Tang Niangzi rolling up her sleeves and about to reach the magnolia flowers on the magnolia tree.
A little girl beside her stood anxiously beside her, looking like she wanted to stop but didn't dare.
Su Man smiled and waved at the little girl, and chuckled: "Why do you destroy flowers with your hands as soon as you come to me." ”
Tang Niangzi chose a very delicate magnolia and picked it off, held it in the palm of her hand and played with it: "I heard Mrs. Zhang in the courtyard say that you were driven out by your ancestors?" ”
"Why is it that the words are so ugly when they reach your mouth?" Su Man glanced at Tang Niangzi, stretched out his hand and pointed to the bamboo chair in the courtyard, and motioned for her to sit down and talk, "The house is still messy, so I won't invite you to go up to the house, just sit here and talk." ”
Tang Niangzi sat on the bamboo chair as soon as she lifted her skirt, and her mouth shook: "Look at it, I said that I wasn't kicked out, this little temper is a lot longer than before." ”
Su Man sat down in the bamboo chair beside her, took the refreshments brought by the little girl, grabbed a piece at random and stuffed it into Tang Niangzi's mouth: "Quickly block your mouth, I don't know what kind of nonsense to make for a while." ”
Tang Niangzi didn't care, she swallowed the snack after chewing twice, looked around, and said with emotion: "The ancestor really loves you, look at this yard chosen, close to her old man's house, the place is quiet, next to the garden, tsk, it's really good." ”
"Which yard in our house is not good, your small yard is not good?" Su Man casually took a piece of chestnut cake and threw it into his mouth, "Weren't you very satisfied with your small courtyard before." ”
"I'm naturally fine, but it's too lonely, and the two mothers-in-law are dangling around all day, which makes me upset." Tang Niangzi leaned back into the bamboo chair, and her feet shook comfortably, "I think it's better for me to move to you, anyway, it's enough for you to give me a room, and it's a waste to give me that yard is too big." ”
Su Man didn't expect her to say this, and he didn't come back to his senses for a while: "You want to move to my side?" ”
Tang Niangzi took it for granted: "Originally, I just wanted to live with you, but it's a pity that it's inconvenient for you to live in the old lady's yard." As she spoke, she turned her head to look at the slippery room, and stretched out her finger, "It's really not good, I can live over there." ”
Su Man couldn't cry or laugh: "You are also my master, where can I let you live in my inverted room?" ”
"Where there are so many exquisite, what master is not master, I think it is much more comfortable to be with you, than to go home and look at the aunt in that yard." Tang Niangzi raised a tall Erlang leg and chewed a snack in her mouth, "That's it, you can just vacate a room for me, and when you move over, I will move over." ”
