Chapter 81: Four Sisters

Zheng Lingyi has been scheming left and right in his heart recently, and he has no spare time to take care of other people's affairs.

However, the Lu family has not moved Aunt Jiang, she has been vigilant for a long time, and when she saw that Aunt Jiang's fetus was stable, she finally relaxed a little, and she also had time to listen to the maids chewing the root of their tongues.

Today is fine, there are three or two flat dustpans in the courtyard, scattered with miscellaneous beans of different colors and sizes.

Aunt Jiang and Aunt Wan were sitting under the porch with their children gossiping, and the sun licked half of the ground under the porch, very generously warming all the people who were shrouded in light.

The maids were sitting on the pestle picking beans a few steps away, chattering about interesting things they had heard out of nowhere.

Zheng Lingyi sat on a long-backed chair, leaning at the door leisurely, holding a seal stone in his hand, thinking about how to carve according to the original form of the seal stone, and there was a rare relaxed and casual look between his eyebrows.

Zixin suddenly lowered her voice and said something, Zheng Lingyi vaguely heard the words 'Ninth Sister', but the rest was inaudible.

I don't know what she said, so that the other maids didn't dare to answer.

Zixin looked around a little strangely and said, "What's wrong?" What can't be said about this, it was originally the maid of Qinghui Pavilion who came out first. ”

"What did the maid of Qinghui Pavilion say?" Aunt Wan asked.

Aunt Jiang looked up and saw Aunt Wan's face full of curiosity, and shook her head with a helpless smile.

"The ninth sister went to Qinghui Pavilion a few days ago, and I guess she wanted to ask the little lady to take her to the Gao family to see the world, which could add some bargaining chips to her marriage." Seeing that someone was interested, Zixin hurriedly said.

As soon as these words came out, she saw Aunt Wan smile awkwardly and kept silent.

Sister always has to get married, if you laugh at Sister Jiu at this moment, it will be your turn in the future, maybe you will be gossiped about by others.

Zixin was very confused, and suddenly saw Qiaoxiu squeezing her eyebrows at herself, and saw Qiao Zhu coming out of the pantry, she didn't look at everyone, just poured a pot of cold tea on the pot of five-needle pine.

Seeing Qiao Zhu go out, Zi Xin sneered and said, "The posture is upside down." ”

Aunt Wan is also very afraid of Zixin's mouth, but Zixin is not her intimate person after all, and Aunt Wan does not dare to speak out to discipline her.

Seeing that everyone was talking about some short trivial matters in the parents, Zixin felt bored, and she was full of lunch, so she yawned and went back to the maid's room to rest.

Seeing her leave, Aunt Wan cautiously whispered to Aunt Jiang: "I thought that the ninth sister was the most relied on by Mrs., and the marriage would go smoothly, but it was not good to be the most relied on if it didn't come to pass, but Mrs. refused to let go." ”

Aunt Jiang also sighed, and said to Aunt Wan: "Isn't it just the ninth sister, isn't twelve also at the age when she should get married?" I heard Grandpa Guo say that Aunt Ai wanted to marry Twelve to one of her cousins, although the cousin was not a dignitary, but he had a dart game at home and made a lot of money. ”

"Really? This family business sounds like a real thing! Is Grandpa Guo allowed? Aunt Wan asked with some excitement.

"Yes? Not punishing Aunt Ai is already a blessing. Aunt Jiang said quite coldly, "After all, the dart game is a hard work, and it is not a big dart game that dominates one side, how can Grandpa Guo look at it?" She also scolded Aunt Ai in front of me, saying that she wanted to marry her daughter from the country's mansion to a relative of the dart bureau. ”

Grandpa Guo values the beauty on the surface, and as for the rancid maggots inside, he doesn't eat the flesh and blood on his body anyway, so he doesn't care.

'It's really, disgusting. ’

Zheng Lingyi thought silently, only the things in her head were not spied on, no matter how she imagined it.

She really wanted to laugh out loud, but she held back, inexplicably choking a cough.

Aunt Wan said with great regret, "I wasted a down-to-earth family affair." ”

Aunt Jiang nodded approvingly, and looked at the three sisters sitting next to her with some concern.

Zheng Lingyi and Zheng Changchang were originally sitting next to each other, and Zheng Mianmian moved a small pestle to squeeze between them.

They all grew up together, Zheng Changchang doesn't hate being close to Zheng Mianmian, but she wants to stick to Zheng Lingyi more. However, she is also older, and she also knows how to treat people and things sometimes can't be so freewheeling, so she has to endure it silently.

The maids didn't hear what the aunts just said, and thought they were discussing the ninth sister.

Qiaoxiu threw a handful of beans that had been eaten by insects into the flower bed, and when she came back, she said casually, "I heard that in a few days' birthday banquet for the eldest sister, Mrs. still ordered the ninth sister to go with her." ”

"The eldest sister's birthday banquet? You're talking about Jue Ge'er's birthday banquet, right? Aunt Jiang felt that something was wrong when she heard this, and after thinking about it, she said.

"Yes, my aunt still has a good memory, I said something wrong." Qiaoxiu smiled embarrassedly and said.

Brother Jue is Zheng Yanhui's eldest son, and he will be three years old after this year's birthday.

Since they got this son, Zheng Yanhui and his wife guarded the child to live, and they were more settled.

Her mother-in-law, Xue, looked at this little grandson's face, and was a little picky about Zheng Yanhui, but the relationship between the two was still average, and they still didn't speculate, and three or two sentences made the atmosphere awkward.

Everyone talked about some gossip again, and when they were picking up a dustpan of miscellaneous beans, Qiao Zhu came back and walked straight to Zheng Lingyi's side, making everyone raise their hearts high.

"Sister, after a while, Madame will reward you to go to the Wang family to celebrate Brother Jue's birthday, remember to prepare enough courtesies."

Qiao Zhu said calmly, and walked towards Aunt Guo's house, probably saying the same thing.

"Ah, I really can't say anything about people behind my back, and I brought back a drudgery for my sister." Aunt Wan whispered.

Although no one dared to echo loudly, they all thought so in their hearts.

Zheng Lingyi was not worried about the matter of preparing a gift at this time, she saw Qiao Zhu walking out of Aunt Guo's room, and after thinking for a moment, she got up and walked towards her.

Her movements were very crisp, and others didn't have time to ask her, so they saw Zheng Lingyi walking to Qiao Zhu in three steps and two steps.

Qiao Zhu stopped and looked at Zheng Lingyi, the two didn't know what to say, Zheng Lingyi soon came back.

"Sister, what are you going to provoke her?" Qiao Luo asked puzzled.

Zheng Lingyi said casually: "It's nothing, just ask who else is going with me besides me." The ninth sister, the twelfth, and the fourteenth all went together. ”

Zheng Yangyang, Zheng Yingying, Zheng Qiuqiu, Zheng Lingyi, the Lu family brought enough four people, and she had never brought so many sisters out with her before.

Why this time? Is it just a whim?

Zheng Lingyi couldn't understand it for a while, and only remembered that Zheng Yangyang seemed to have spread the news that he was going to discuss his relatives half a year ago, but after a while, there was no news at all.

During this time, Zheng Yan has come back several times one after another, is it really related to her? Or is it just that Zheng Lingyi is too worried?

These things happened so finely, like a breeze blowing, Zheng Lingyi didn't even notice it, and it wasn't until today that these things were combined, but there was still one less thread that connected these things.

"Fifteen? Fifteen? Aunt Jiang called a few words before Zheng Lingyi woke up from the state of seeming to be out of the world.

Zheng Lingyi blinked, looked at Aunt Jiang, saw her loving smile, and said, "Are you tired?" Do you want to go to sleep for a while? ”

Zheng Lingyi is not sleepy, but he has something in his heart, and it will not be good if he reveals it on his face so that others will worry or think about it.

She pretended to yawn and went into the house to rest.

The west window was opened in the side pavilion, Zheng Lingyi was lying on the soft collapse, and the breeze was very affectionate in her ears and hair.

Although Zheng Lingyi was full of worries, he gradually became a little sleepy, and fell asleep under the comfort of the soft breeze.

Only Zheng Lingyi was a little resistant and worried about going to the Wang family, and the other three sisters were all happy, as if they were celebrating the New Year.

As soon as Aunt Guo got the news, she couldn't help but follow behind Zheng Qiuqiu and said, "Madame finally saw my hard work, and it didn't waste my time in vain, accompanying her to burn incense and chant Buddha." ”

"Okay, I know it's your credit, but let's talk less!" Zheng Qiuqiu became impatient when he heard this, so he replied.

Aunt Guo was about to get angry, and she remembered this important event, so she said in a good voice: "Okay, I won't say it, let's come to Aunt Auntie's to pick out jewelry." ”

Zheng Qiuqiu had a good face at this time, and walked towards Aunt Guo as if she was gracious.

Xiyuan was not so lively, and the two aunts were wiping tears from their daughters in the room.

"I thought Madame was so ruthless that she wanted to delay you alive!" Aunt Cai cried and said.

The Lu family is willing to take Zheng Yangyang out this time, so he will no longer publicize the rumor that Zheng Yangyang is weak due to illness, otherwise wouldn't he slap himself in the mouth?

Zheng Yangyang couldn't help crying with joy, with her thoughts, she wouldn't have let such a little favor fool her, but the Lu family was hanging her all these days, which really scared her.

Zheng Yangyang is still like this, and Zheng Yingying is even more happy.

She has also reached the age of marriage, and she doesn't have her share when she goes out, either she asks the ninth sister to rob it or Zheng Lingyi to rob it, and now she can finally get a piece of the pie.

They were all so happy, only Zheng Lingyi was awakened by an extremely real nightmare, and he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

Just opened his eyes for a moment, and the nightmare receded rapidly, and he couldn't even grasp the slightest revelation.

She sat stiff for a while, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then got up and went to the bronze mirror to wipe her sweat with a handkerchief.

The person in the mirror is already a girl, her eyebrows are smart and not vulgar, her wrists are slender like poplar leaves, and her neck is like a willow when she hangs low.

No matter how Zheng Lingyi disguises it, the pearl is also a pearl, and it will never be regarded as a fish's eyeball.

'Let's dress up more low-key that day. so as not to provoke right and wrong. Zheng Lingyi looked at the person in the mirror slightly, and a silver bead as small as a soybean jumped out of her ear, even if the jewelry was so simple, it also added a lot of brilliance to her.

Zheng Lingyi couldn't guess Lu's mood, even if Lu didn't have any other thoughts this time, Zheng Lingyi didn't want to compete with her three sisters for the limelight.
