Chapter 63: Brothers
The two children looked at their aunt Yang Wanqing, and when they saw her nodding, they reached out and grabbed two pieces and put them in their mouths, and the next moment, their little faces wrinkled, but they were reluctant to spit it out, not to mention how funny it was.
Everyone in the room laughed, Ruohong smiled and moved her arm twice, and then went to hug the little bean ding, the child was not afraid of life, and gave her the sour plum in his hand to eat.
"What's the matter, it's so funny?" The four brothers Mei Zhiyuan accompanied the two cousins of the Yang family and Uncle Tao to walk in.
The crowd saluted each other again and exchanged a few words of greeting.
After being introduced, I learned that the two young masters from the Yang family, one is the second young master of the Yang family, Yang Jintian, and the other is the third young master of the Yang family, Yang Jinhe.
The two of them came in and stood there, rolling their eyes to look at a room of warblers and maids, and the young lady and maid stood for half of the room, and they found that their eyes were suddenly insufficient, and they felt that they had entered the country of their daughters.
The two brothers had been here a few times before, but they had never entered the big courtyard, and they all stayed at their aunt's for a long time before leaving.
Tao Zhe looked at the bunch of girls in the room, chattering very noisy, and seeing the Yang brothers like that, they just looked disgusted, so they simply walked to the other side, sat sideways on the chair next to the big table, and watched the excitement from a distance.
Mei Zhiyuan and Mei Zhigao have both hugged their younger siblings, and when they saw such a small child like it, they couldn't help but want to reach out and tease it.
Mei Zhifang has also seen a few younger siblings when they were young, but he doesn't like children, and the most annoying thing is that children cry at every turn, as long as their younger siblings cry, whether they are wrong or not, it is his fault.
Mei Zhishu and Ruolan are less than two years apart, he doesn't remember what his sister was like when she was a child, and when she saw those two children, he couldn't take his eyes off.
So little and cute! Mei Zhishu wanted to touch and hug him greedily, but he was a little scared and didn't dare to reach out.
Seeing Ruohong standing in the distance with a small child in his arms, he ran over and circled around the third sister, looking up at the little person in her arms.
The child twisted his body in Ruohong's arms, turned his little head to look for Mei Zhishu, and thought it was very funny, as if he was hiding from him.
Ruolan also ran over, pulling Ruo's red clothes, "Let me see, let me see......" she said.
Ruohong squatted down with the child in her arms, and let the two of them look at Xiaodouding, while she peeked at the two cousins of the Yang family, not knowing which of the two of them was her husband in Ruoxue's dream.
Is a teenager of twelve or thirteen a child at all? In this way, it is difficult to see the good and bad people, even if the height has not developed to the appearance of adults, it is even more difficult to classify them all on the opposite side.
Ruohong didn't know whether to hate them or not, she was not a reborn person, she had no resentment towards the Yang family brothers, and she didn't have as much resentment as Ruoxue.
The maid holding the child next to her was vigilantly staring at the little master of their family, afraid that Ruohong would fall the child to the ground if she was unstable, or that she would be bullied by the two children.
Ruohong stopped looking at it for a while, turned her head, and saw that the maid was looking at her vigilantly, seeing her nervous appearance, she simply stood up and returned Xiaodouding to her, and pulled Ruolan and Mei Zhishu aside.
The maid held the child and went to stand beside Yang Wanqing.
Mei Zhiyuan politely asked the two cousins and took them to the other side of the room to sit down.
When everyone arrived, Ruoxue asked people to serve food, and prepared for the banquet with tea and fruit.
Today is to celebrate Ruoxian's birthday, so let Ruoxian sit on the top, and on her left is the Yang Wanqing sisters, and two children, the two of them are held by the maid and sit there, and the maid feeds them.
Ruoxue Ruohong sisters sat on the right, Lianxin took six or seven maids to serve around, and a little farther away, there were four little maids looking at a few small stoves, on which there was hot water for making tea.
The dishes were all served, and everyone took turns to salute Ruoxian with a glass of fruit wine, and said hello to her, and then slowly laughed and ate.
"Try this dish ......"
Ruoxue asked the Yang sisters to eat from time to time, said what the name of the dish was, and enthusiastically introduced it to the guests.
Ruoxian was put in the first place by everyone because she was today's birthday star, and she was toasted by everyone with a circle of fruit wine, and her heart was warm and blushing, but she talked more, and she was a little more cheerful and lively than usual.
Ruofeng also helped Ruoxian greet the Yang family sisters, and lost no time in saying two witty words, which made everyone laugh.
Ruofei picked up what she liked to eat, but she rarely spoke, sometimes saying which dish was not delicious, and then saying a bunch of reasons why it was not delicious, and then stopped talking for a long time.
Ruolan sat next to Ruohong, she called the third sister what she wanted to eat, pointed to the dishes in the distance and asked Ruohong to clip some for her, put it in a small bowl and eat it slowly with a small silver spoon.
Ruohong is happy to take care of this sister, she is a person who likes children, just now holding the little bean of the Yang family, she was reluctant to let go, and held it in her arms softly, so that she wanted to be a mother.
The Yang sisters were still a little restrained at first, but after drinking a few glasses of fruit wine, they gradually let go, and the three of Ruoxue, Ruoxian, and Ruofeng chatted with them, and they also chatted with the sky.
Ruohong uses taking care of Ruolan to eat as a shield, rarely speaks, she is not used to chatting with a group of half-grown children, she doesn't know about the clothes and jewelry here, and she doesn't know what the jewelry is made of.
She smiled to show that she was listening to them, she smiled very sincerely, promising not to make people think that she was just perfunctory, in order to avoid being said that she was high-minded and ignoring people, when she had to say, she would say to Ruolan: "Look at you eating the food in your face again!" …… Eat this slowly,...... Let's have a bite of soup,......"
On the side of Duobao Pavilion, Mei Zhiyuan was letting the two cousins eat food, and they also ate wine, but he would not persuade him to drink, they were all half-grown children who had not grown up, and drinking too much wine was not beneficial and hurt his body.
The two young masters of the Yang family don't need to be let at all, the table is full of dishes that have never been eaten, if it weren't for the fear that the food will be too ugly, they would all want to lie on it.
They chewed something in their mouths and spoke vaguely to deal with Mei Zhiyuan, they didn't want to talk at this time, but Mei Zhiyuan would ask their uncle what he was busy with lately? After a while, I asked my eldest cousin why he didn't come.
How do they know what their daddy is doing, and he won't tell them! And what the eldest brother does, they don't know, and the eldest doesn't report to them when he goes out.
Tao Zhe sat a little farther away, slowly eating the dishes in front of him, the corners of his slightly bruised mouth were hooked, looking at the Yang brothers opposite, smiling ill-willedly.
He turned his head to the maid who was waiting beside him, and whispered something, and the maid nodded and turned to go out.
There were four brothers from the Mei family, two brothers from the Yang family, and Tao Zhe at this table, a total of seven people, and five or six seats were empty, which seemed a little sparse.
Mei Zhigao sat next to his uncle Tao Zhe, let him drink and eat, and laughed and livened up the atmosphere.
The fourth young master, Mei Zhishu, shouted to the maid next to him and gave him the dishes from a distance, he wanted to finish eating quickly, so that he could go next door to find his sister Ruolan to play.
He listened to the laughter at the next table, and became more and more unable to sit still, so he stood up and looked through the gap in the Duobao Pavilion to see what they were doing.
"Sit down and eat." Mei Zhiyuan said.
Mei Zhishu sat down again, stretched out his chopsticks and grabbed a chopsticks and eight treasure duck slices, put them on a small plate in front of him, and ate them slowly one by one.
When the Yang brothers saw that their little cousin had a chopstick, they also stretched out their arms and put a chopstick in their mouths, "This is delicious, cousin, cousin taste it." ”
The third young master, Mei Zhifang, has always watched the eldest brother do things, and when he saw that the eldest brother was humble to his cousin, he also followed the example of the eldest brother and let the two cousins eat vegetables, "Cousin eat, cousin taste this, what is this called......"
The maid on the side hurriedly replied: "This is called a hibiscus egg, and it is a small ball made of sea fish." ”
"Cousin, try this hibiscus egg."
"Okay, cousin, you can eat too."
"Okay, good ......"
Tao Zhe saw the soup bowl brought by the maid, and directly asked them to put it in front of the Yang brothers, and said with a warm smile: "The two eldest nephews came to eat this, this dish has a good name, it is called Fujia World, right?" ”
"Yes." The maid replied.
"The name is good, and the meaning is good, the two of you must eat more." Tao Zhe said.
"Uncle is right, I want to eat it too." Mei Zhishu shouted.
Mei Zhishu stood up and was about to stretch out his arm to dig a spoon, but Tao Zhe slapped his hand with chopsticks, "Why don't you know etiquette like this, how can you rob the guest if you are the host." He said.
Mei Zhishu withdrew his hand, pouted and sat down again, what a rich world! Isn't it just soft-shelled turtle soup! It seems that the master really wants to eat.
The two brothers of the Yang family glared at Tao Zhe, if they didn't care that this was a guest at someone's house, they would have gone up to beat Tao Zhe.
They are all studying in the same school, who doesn't know anyone!
They can't argue that they are taking advantage of the elders here.
The Yang family brothers didn't smile and dealt with two sentences, and they didn't want to pay attention to him, they ate and drank by themselves, and talked to Mei Zhifang about where they had fun to go. Mei Zhifang's eyes lit up when she listened, and she was eager to play immediately.
Mei Zhigao saw that he wanted to play, picked up a chicken bone that he had just eaten, and threw it over, "Those places are not allowed to go, be careful I tell the second uncle to spank your ass." He said.
Mei Zhifang was hit by a chicken bone on his head, turned his head to look at the second brother diagonally opposite, and lowered his head to eat the rock sugar chicken wings in the bowl.
Mei Jishan often said that Mei Zhigao's studies were good, and asked Mei Zhifang to learn more, and the more he said it, he was a little afraid of Mei Zhigao, and he didn't dare to talk back every time he was disciplined.
Mei Zhishu ate a few more bites of meat and vegetables, picked up half a cup of sherbet and drank it, "I'm full." He said.
Mei Zhishu jumped down from the chair without waiting for him to finish speaking, pedaled around Duobao Pavilion and ran to Ruolan, urging: "Lan'er, hurry up and eat, let's go play in the snow after eating?" My eldest brother and I were very big when we came here just now, and it must be so thick now. He gestured with his hand.
Ruolan listened, so she wanted to go out to play and stop eating, and got off the chair and ran outside.
Ruohong hurriedly asked people to put on cloaks for them, and asked a few maids to follow, watching them not run crazy.
The two villains of the Yang family were still eating soup, and when they saw Mei Zhishu and Ruolan wearing cloaks, they knew that they were going out to play, so they didn't eat it, and they stretched out their hands to go out to play.
Yang Wanqing saw that her nephews and nieces had almost eaten, so she also asked the maid to wrap him in a cloak, and told the maid to take them out to play for a while, and then send them back to her aunt's courtyard to take a nap and not stay outside for too long.
Ruoxue called Qiaolian and asked her to follow them, send people to the Yang family, and then come back to say something.
After a while, everyone sat down again and continued to eat and chat.
After eating some more vegetables and drinking a bowl of soup, Ruohong went out without saying hello, and everyone thought she was going to relieve herself and ignored it.
Ruohong came out of the green calyx hall, and saw that there was already an inch of snow that had fallen, so he asked the maid under the standing corridor, "Where did the sixth young lady and the fourth young master go?" ”
The maid pointed to a road to the west and said, "The fourth young master took the sixth young lady to Merlin over there. ”
On the ground in front of the green calyx hall is a field of evergreen, and the green brick floor divides them into twenty small pieces, and it looks like a labyrinth.
The snow in the air covers the thick holly leaves with a layer of crystal white, making the green leaves hidden below even more attractive.
Ruohong looked at it and walked down the stone steps, into the flying snow, Dan Tang and Pomegranate followed her with umbrellas, the footprints of someone walking on the path, you can vaguely see the creaking sound of stepping on it, "Miss, slow down." Dan Tang shouted.
Ruohong didn't walk fast, her child was up, she really wanted to play in the snow like a child, run like the wind, but unfortunately she couldn't, Miss Everyone's norms constrained her, and she could only watch the children play.
and the two people behind her reminded her from time to time, and she was even more embarrassed to run crazy in the snow.
Tangerine Pomegranate followed behind with an umbrella, Ruohong didn't want them to make an umbrella for her, she was wearing a cloak and a hat, and it was okay to walk in the snow for a while.
On the contrary, the two of them, although they are wearing cotton clothes, are still a little thinner, and they have to do things when they get wet.
Ruohong is not a pure ancient person, and he can't do anything to abuse his subordinates.
Walking all the way, Ruo Red Hand never stopped, as long as there were dry flowers and trees on the side of the road, she would stretch out her hand to sweep the snow off the branches, and Dan Tang reminded her to be careful to cut her hand and ignore it.
At the end of the path ahead, there is a plum forest with branches hidden in snow, and red plum blossoms looming in the snow.
Ruohong walked closer, raised her hand and hit the plum branch, and a snow mist fell, and the plum blossoms on the branches were revealed, which was a dazzling red.
The fragrance of plum blossoms also spreads after the snow falls, and the fragrance of flowers is mixed with the smell of snow, which is cool and refreshing.
The corners of Ruohong's mouth curled up and a smile rippled on her face, "That's good!" She said.
"Well, it's so fragrant, it's so beautiful!" Dan Tang looked at the delicate red plum and said.
"Miss Six, they're there." Pomegranate pointed to a few plum trees on the left, and could see several people standing there, and there was a person's clothes inside, which were the same as those worn by Ruolan's maid Xiao Tao.
Ruohong walked over with her feet up, and walked around a few jungle trees, and saw Mei Zhishu and Ruolan squatting on the ground, and two maids standing beside them with umbrellas, shielding them from the falling snow in the sky.
