Ruohong smiled and asked her if she was tempted by that prince and whether she thought about marrying him.

Ruoxue smiled bitterly, she really didn't have any interest in that man. "Nope."

At that time, she was full of trepidation, how could she be in the mood to think about these ups and downs.

"And then?" Ruohong asked again.

"In my dreams, it was mostly in the inner courtyard of the Huang family, and I really didn't want to mention it." Ruoxue's face was full of sadness, and she didn't want to think about whether it was a dream or a previous life.

"That's it!"

Ruohong turned around and sat on a chair next to her, "It's not worth it, you've been hiding for so long, I'm a little disappointed!" She said.

Ruoxue smiled bitterly, and slowly talked about what she wanted to say.

In the year of her dream, a lot of things happened, first the epidemic in Jinling, which lasted for two or three months, and hundreds of people died one after another.

In the Mei family, there are the eldest wife Tian and the fifth miss Ruofei, and the sixth lady Ruolan has passed away one after another, and there are many sick people.

Ruohong exclaimed, "No wonder you want to let the three of them go to Fahua Nunnery, it turns out that they really went to avoid trouble." She said.

Ruoxue said: "Originally, I was not sure that the things in the dream would really happen, but at that time, I heard you say that the cousin of the Yang family had an infectious disease, so I was awakened, and I was also very scared at the time, I was really afraid that the things in the dream would happen again." ”

The corners of her mouth pulled out a wry smile, at that time, she just wanted to get Tian, Ruolan, and Ruofei to Fahua Nunnery, but she didn't think that other people would also get sick, so she later risked being sick and went back to serve Mrs. Cao.

This can be regarded as a kind of compensation!

Thinking of Mrs. Cao, Ruoxue said again: "Grandma didn't die this year, she should have died in the winter of the year after next." ”

She stood up and walked a few steps, looking at the rice pearls under the porch of the door, and the pots of budding chrysanthemums in the yard.

In autumn, it rained for three days in a row, and the weather suddenly became cool, and there was not even a little overabundance from summer to autumn.

Those who were afraid of the cold took off their summer shirts and changed into thicker clothes for autumn.

"What else?" Ruohong asked.

"In addition, after the silk harvest this year, the mulberry farmers could not sell the silk in their hands, the price of silk fell, and many weaving mills stopped working.

Later, those farmers did not have the money to buy food, and displacement abounded. ”

"That's it!"

Ruohong walked up to her, saw the person running in from outside the courtyard gate, and smiled slightly: "Little sister is here." ”

As he spoke, he lifted the bamboo curtain and walked out.

When Mi Pearl saw Ruohong walking out, she got up and took two steps to the side.

"Big sister."

Ruolan ran all the way up the corridor and threw herself into Ruohong's arms, Xiao Tao caught up behind and said, "Miss Six, don't always run so fast, what should I do if I fall!" ”

Ruohong stretched out her hand and pinched Ruolan's face, and said, "Didn't your mother teach you to learn the rules today?" ”

"Where's the big sister? I'm looking for a big sister for something. Ruolan didn't answer her words, but broke free of Ruohong's hand in a little hurry.

Ruohong let go and said, "It's inside." ”

Ruoxue also lifted the curtain from the house and came out, "What's wrong, is something wrong?" She said.

Ruolan pulled her sleeve and said, "Big sister, Cailian in the second brother's room is sick, she is tired, and she doesn't want to move when she lies down, so you can ask the doctor to come and show her." ”

"It's not a big deal."

Ruoxue pointed to the maid Chunliu and went outside to ask someone to invite Doctor Tong to come and go to the three-room courtyard to show Mei Zhigao's maid.

Turned around and asked, "Does the third aunt know?" ”

"I don't know." Ruolan blinked her eyes twice and said, "Auntie is packing up her clothes to send to Daddy, so I didn't bother her." ”

Ruoxue smiled and said, "You're a clever one!" ”

Ruolan turned around and took Ruohong's hand and walked into the house, while answering her question just now, "My mother taught me to learn the rules, but I refused to learn, so the fourth sister accompanied me to learn." I didn't expect that she had learned it all before and made mistakes, and she was told many times by her mother. ”

Several young ladies in the house, because of the first three months of filial piety, were exempted from being needlework girls, but every day they had to learn etiquette norms from their mothers.

More than half an hour later, Lian Xin came into the house to look at Ruoxue, and stopped talking.

Ruoxue stood next to the table, watching Ruohong's sixth sister draw stick figures, and saw Lianxin come in, but she didn't listen to her, so she looked up at her.

Lian Xin motioned Ruoxue to go out to talk, turned around and retreated, she didn't want to talk behind people's backs, some words were not good to say in front of children.

Ruoxue didn't know what was going on, turned around and walked out.

Ruohong raised her head to look at the shaking curtain, and then looked down at Ruolan painting.

As soon as Ruoxue came out, she was invited by Lian Xin to the small hall of the hall.

A little maid wanted to follow up and serve tea, but she was also driven away by Lian Xin.

"What the hell is wrong with you girl? What the hell is going on? Ruoxue said.

Lian Xin pushed Ruoxue and walked a few steps inside before she lowered her voice and said, "Cai Lian is pregnant, it may be the second young master's."

The slave was afraid that someone would talk nonsense, so she didn't dare to call other people to spread the word. ”

Ruoxue slowly sat in the chair, looked at Lian Xin and said, "Did the third aunt tell me?" ”

"The third lady already knows. She was the one who asked me to tell you."

"What did she say?"

Lian Xin said: "The third lady said that she would ask the third master before making a decision. ”

Ruoxue turned her head to look at the jade small kang screen on the Duobao Pavilion for a while, stood up and went to the courtyard where the third wife lived.

Tao listened to Ruoxue's suggestion, first moved Cailian out on the grounds of illness, and then wrote a short note to Mei Jitan and sent it out.

Mei Jitan quickly sent people back, saying that everything was decided by Ruoxue.

Ruoxue looked at Tao, who was a little overwhelmed, and said, "That kid can't stay." ”

Tao also knew that the child could not stay, and staying would affect Mei Zhigao's future family affairs and his reputation.

That's a life after all!

The two of them sat in silence for a while before Tao got up and walked out.

Ruoxue got up and called out to her, and said, "Cailian can't come back to serve the second brother, it's better to find her someone to marry." ”

Dow paused and walked out.

When Mei Zhigao came back from the school, he was called by Tao to talk for a while, and he came out in a distraught and stayed in the garden behind him for an afternoon, and only went back in the evening.

Tao also told him how to deal with Cailian, and did not reprimand him, and told him that now he should focus on his studies, and when he is older in the future, it is not too late to think about the love of the child.

Mei Zhigao said to Tao: "Don't embarrass her, if she has any requests, just agree to her." ”

The next day, Duan Jie came to Mei's house to see Ruoxue, and he also bought all the silk brocade woven by the Mei family this year from Ruoxue.
