Chapter 8: Feasting

Hearing the fourth sister's question, Nianlan felt distressed again, this sister didn't know who she was now. I don't even know how old I am. So he said:

"You're over seven years old!"

"What about you?"

Shang Ruonan asked casually with the food in his mouth.

Nian Lan smiled and said:

"My sister is eleven years old."

Shang Ruonan didn't ask again, just lowered his head and ate violently, but the eldest sister was stunned and didn't eat much. Finally, Shang Ruonan put down his chopsticks and said:

"Wow, that's so full! It's delicious! Sister, you haven't even eaten! ”

Shang Nianlan got up and wiped Shang Ruonan's mouth and said:

"Sister is not hungry, first when you fell asleep, I ate two pastries, and I didn't do anything this afternoon, so I stayed in this house, and I didn't feel hungry."

As he spoke. The four girls rushed in, and Lily saw the mess on the table, and was stunned for a moment and said:

"Miss, did you eat or not?"

Shang Ruonan hiccuped and hurriedly replied:

"I'm full, but you young lady haven't eaten a few bites."

Looking at Shang Ruonan's imageless movements, several girls were also stunned. But quickly calmed down and began to clean up the things on the table.

Nian Lan looked at Ruonan with some concern:

"You... You okay? ”

"It's okay! Yes! There's something about it, I eat a little too much, big sister, can you take a walk with me? Eating less? ”

Nian Lan nodded lightly. Walked over to help Ruonan move the stool a little, and then led Ruonan to walk slowly, Ruonan wanted to walk out the door. Nian Lan looked at her again and said:

"It's a little cold outside, Lilac, get a thin cloak for your young lady."

"Yes."

Lilac answered the call and went to get the cloak. After a while, he brought Ruo Nan a short goose-yellow cloak. Then Nianlan took Ruonan's hand and asked a little girl outside the door to brighten the lantern a little.

When I walked out of the door, a cool breeze blew in my face, which was the most comfortable for Ruonan, who felt a little hot after eating. Once again, I can feel these things of nature, and for Shang Ruonan, it is to be sure that I am alive again! Still alive!

When I walked out, I saw that it was just a small courtyard with a small courtyard wall. There was a small clearing in front of the door, and a tree was planted in this clearing, but now only the trunk was visible, and no leaves could be seen. Seeing that her sister was looking at the tree, Nianlan smiled and said:

"This is your peach tree, when you were a child, your father asked you what tree you wanted to plant, and you happened to be eating peaches. You said that you wanted to plant a peach tree, and your father asked people to plant this peach tree for you, and every year the peach blossoms bloom beautifully and bear peaches. Every year you give your dad the first ripe peaches. Daddy was happy. ”

Nianlan nagged and told Ruonan some things, hoping that Ruonan could remember something. But seeing that Ruonan was listening carefully, he didn't seem to know. I sighed secretly in my heart.

Descend the two stone steps to the foot of the peach tree. Look at the tree. Ruonan asked softly:

"Sister, how many years has this tree been? It's grown so big! ”

Nian Lan said again:

"It's been in our house for five years. However, when they were moved, they were all big trees, and it is said that they were all bearing peaches. That kind of person also said that he might not be able to move. You've been watering it every day since you were a child, so it's always alive and well. It's just that it's late autumn now, and all the leaves have fallen off. ”

Ruonan walked around the peach tree, a rather large peach tree, and there was nothing planted under the tree, so he put a few big stones. It looks smooth and smooth, probably children have crawled and played here.

And on the edge of the fence in the courtyard, there are some vine-like things, but I don't know what they are. The eldest sister took her sister and turned around to look at the house in the yard. The eldest sister said again:

"This is your yard. I haven't chosen a name yet, but I used to ask you to choose a name, and you always said that you have to write it yourself when you can write big characters. Let's see, I'll wait for you to write the name of your yard later. ”

Shang Ruonan looked left and right, and he still wanted to name his yard? It looks like there are only four or five rooms here, and the house in front is the house I just came out of, and it seems that I live by myself, and the two small doors next to it may be where the girls live.

When I turned around, I saw the gate of the courtyard, and the gate of the courtyard was a moon gate, round as a full moon! Shang Ruonan wanted to go out and have a look, although he saw that it was now a black mess outside, and he couldn't see anything, but he wanted to go out and see what the world was like.

Before he reached the gate of the courtyard, a figure hurriedly came in from outside the courtyard gate, carrying a small lantern. Maybe she didn't expect to meet someone when she walked into the yard, so she took two steps back, and then she saw clearly that it was Shang Ruonan and Nianlan. Busy saluting:

"Vanilla has seen the eldest lady and the fourth lady."

Shang Ruonan turned his head to look at the eldest sister, and the eldest sister smiled and stretched out her hand to help:

"Vanilla, are you in such a hurry to come here, did your mother ask you to come and see the fourth sister?"

"Miss Hui, yes, Mrs. is worried, I don't know if Miss Fourth has eaten tonight, and the wound still hurts. Because the nurse was not there, I was afraid that Miss Fourth would not sleep well, and said that I would take Miss Fourth over to live with Mrs. ”

Nianlan also looked back at Shang Ruonan, Ruonan didn't want to sleep in the same room with their husband and wife, he was not a real child, how embarrassing. Busy Road:

"No, no, I can sleep on my own, I slept on my own this afternoon. If you don't believe me, you ask the eldest sister. ”

Although I don't know who this vanilla is, I see that the eldest sister was also polite to her just now, and I can't be too rude.

Nianlan also smiled and said:

"Vanilla, you just go back to your mother, and say that the fourth lady slept all afternoon this afternoon, and now she is in good spirits. Dinner is also full, don't you know, if you give her a cow, I'm afraid she can eat it. Hungry for a few days. Also, I will stay with my fourth sister tonight to accompany her, so that my mother doesn't have to worry. ”

"That's good. Madame was still reading while eating, and I didn't know if the fourth lady had eaten well. She is inconvenient now, and the old man was called out after lunch. I haven't come back yet. Miss Seven also slept just now. Madame went back to her room and leaned there, so she asked me to come and see Miss Four. When the slave went back, she replied to her that the fourth lady was fine. ”

Nian Lan frowned and said:

"Daddy hasn't come back yet? Do you know what's going on? When you go back, you have to ask your mother to rest early, don't worry about your father and fourth sister. I'm here here. In this way, why don't you call the second lady and let her accompany her mother for a while. This time she was pregnant with twins, and Dr. Wen said that she would have to have a snack. ”

Shang Ruonan looked at this eleven-year-old sister, but he really thought about it. What was he doing when he was eleven years old? Without my parents, I just play crazy every day. I don't know what it's like to be sad until the New Year and when I'm sick.
