Chapter 8 Wen Xiangzhi

Two little girls, with maids by their side, what can they play?

It's just drilling around in a fake cave, playing the game where you chase me and I chase you.

Zheng Lingyi has long been not interested in this game, and just uses it as an errand.

She didn't expect Wen Xiangzhi to be so sensitive, and when the two of them were hiding in the cave panting, she suddenly said: "You and my sisters are the same, obviously you don't like to play with me, but you have to pretend to be happy." ”

Zheng Lingyi was pierced by her, and for a while, she was a little speechless, and she made a cowardly look, and said, "Miss Wen, what do you want to play?" ”

"Hey." Wen Xiangzhi sighed at such a young age, I didn't know that she was learning from her, and Zheng Lingyi wanted to laugh a little when she saw it.

"You don't like to play anything, so let's talk." Wen Xiangzhi said.

Zheng Lingyi regarded himself as a toy, and he didn't disagree with Wen Xiangzhi's words, and said, "Okay." ”

obviously said that they wanted to chat, but neither of them spoke, and they were stunned at the stone wall of the rockery.

After a while, the two looked at each other and laughed together.

Wen Xiangzhi's laughter was very bright, which made Zheng Lingyi involuntarily feel good.

"How many sisters do you have? How many concubines? Wen Xiangzhi pulled a piece of grass and wrapped it around her fingers and asked.

"Three concubines and four concubines, no." As soon as the words came out, Zheng Lingyi remembered that Banniang was no longer there.

She turned her head away, adjusted the emotions in her eyes, turned back, and said to Wen Xiangzhi: "Three concubines, three concubines." There are six in total. ”

Wen Xiangzhi nodded, folded her hands and counted, "I only have one sister-in-law, who is already married, and four sisters-in-law." The eldest one is about to get married, so her mother always takes her out with her so that she can find her in-laws. ”

"And who's the other one?" Zheng Lingyi clearly remembered that there were two girls sitting beside Wen Xiangzhi.

"That's my second uncle's concubine." Wen Xiangzhi said.

Zheng Lingyi realized that the Wen family has not yet been separated, and the eldest son is in charge, this Cheng is the sister-in-law, and the Bao family is the second brother and sister.

"Well, I'm the same as you, and I'm also the eldest sister who got married when she got old, and she was the one with a round face."

Before Zheng Lingyi finished describing, he heard Wen Xiangzhi say: "I know that the second aunt wants her to be the daughter-in-law of the third brother." ”

Zheng Lingyi was stunned for a moment, and blurted out in disbelief, "Really? Your third brother is a concubine? ”

"No, it's the eldest son of the second room." Wen Xiangzhi said casually.

Is the Lu family really willing to choose such a good gateway as the Wen family for his concubine, or is it the eldest son?

Zheng Lingyi couldn't believe it.

Zheng Lingyi is the daughter of the boudoir, so naturally she doesn't know that the gap between the Wen family's big house and the second room is not just a star.

However, this eldest son is really more than enough for a lowly concubine.

Wen Xiangzhi saw that Zheng Lingyi didn't seem to believe it, thought about it, and said with a smile: "I know why you don't believe it." You don't think a concubine is worthy of a concubine, do you? ”

Zheng Lingyi nodded, and listened to Wen Xiangzhi again: "My third brother injured his foot, and my second aunt wanted to find someone with a lower background, but I was afraid that a woman's poor upbringing would cause jokes." Thinking about it, it is appropriate for a higher concubine to come. ”

I see.

Zheng Lingyi wanted to ask, 'Is your third brother's foot hurt badly?' ’

But when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed again, and held back a sentence, "The fourth sister is blessed." ”

Wen Xiangzhi raised her head and said, "That is, my third brother is the most gentle person." ”

Seeing her smug look, Zheng Lingyi couldn't help but believe her a little.

If it just hurts his foot, even if he becomes a cripple, as long as the person is good and the door style is good, then for Zheng Chuchu, it can still be called a good marriage.

Although she has an average relationship with Zheng Chuchu, she has never had any holidays.

Zheng Lingyi is really looking forward to her fourth sister marrying a good family.

In Wen Xiangzhi's eyes, although her third brother hurt his leg, he was the most friendly to her, but his leg always hurt recently, so he didn't like to go out very much.

But she is a small child, and she knows a lot of things.

Zheng Lingyi and Wen Xiangzhi stayed in the garden for a while, and then they were invited back by Danzhu to eat dim sum, saying that they had eaten dim sum, and the Wen family was going back.

Zheng Lingyi also entrusted Wen Xiangzhi's blessing, so he was able to eat and take a bag of dim sum and return to Xiyuan.

Aunt Jiang and Zheng Changchang were sitting by the door peeling beans, Aunt Jiang's head was about to stretch, and she was just looking forward to Zheng Lingyi coming back quickly.

Although there is no small kitchen in Xiyuan, there is a place to boil water, so you can't cook anything, but the aunts can cook beans and steam egg custard by themselves.

Seeing that Zheng Lingyi was back, Aunt Jiang hurriedly put down the bamboo basket and hurriedly asked, "What is Madam looking for you to do?" ”

Zheng Lingyi said it 1510, and even what Wen Xiangzhi said to her, she also said.

Aunt Jiang was relieved to learn that Zheng Lingyi was just a make-up number, and today's scene was sung for Zheng Chuchu.

She picked up the bamboo basket again, sat on the small stool, and said, "It's okay if it has nothing to do with us, don't ask others so much in the future." ”

"It was Miss Wen herself who said it, I didn't ask." Zheng Lingyi took the small bamboo basket in Zheng Changchang's hand and peeled the beans skillfully.

Aunt Jiang didn't say anything about it, but said, "Let's peel more beans today, let's not eat them ourselves, and take them to the kitchen to change the peach gum for the two of you." ”

Zheng Changchang took a ginkgo shortbread from the pastry brought back by Zheng Lingyi and nibbled on it in small bites, and when she heard Aunt Jiang's words, she cheered a little.

Zheng Lingyi reached out and touched her little face, and the mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled.

At this time, Zheng Chuchu also returned to Dongyuan.

Aunt Qiu followed Zheng Chuchu around in circles, and Zheng Chuchu said a little impatiently: "Auntie, what are you doing with so many questions?" ”

"I, I'm not worried about you, am I?" Aunt Qiu was used to being low, and she didn't feel anything wrong when she was treated so unceremoniously by her daughter.

"What are you worried about? I have seen the people of the Wen family today, Mrs. Wen is gentle and virtuous, and the concubines are also dressed very decently, so I think she is a generous family. Second Mrs. Wen is a little talkative, and it doesn't matter if the two courtyards are separated by doors. ”

Zheng Chuchu's thoughts have now flown to the Wen family, where can he still think about the old aunt in front of him?

"The Wen family has two rooms, how do you know which room Madame showed you?" Aunt Qiu is older, even if she is trapped in the back house all day long, she thinks about things longer than Zheng Chuchu.

Zheng Chuchu listened to Aunt Qiu's words, his eyes widened suddenly, revealing a little worry, "That's right." These two rooms are far inferior to the main house. Mrs. Tan didn't even tell me a letter from the second room, so it was useless. ”

When Aunt Qiu heard Zheng Chuchu say this, she felt a little relieved.

Married to the Wen family? Aunt Qiu didn't believe that this marriage would fall on Zheng Chuchu.

If it is a second room, it seems much more real and credible.

It is under the protection of the big house, but it is not as high as the big house.

In the eyes of Aunt Qiu, the second room of the Wen family is a proper family affair.

However, seeing the ugly look on Zheng Chuchu's face, Aunt Qiu didn't say anything, and picked up her sewing basket and went to tie the strings.

As soon as the knot was wrapped a few times, Aunt Qiu saw Zheng Yingying walking in with an unkind face, and when she saw Aunt Qiu, she didn't say hello, and walked straight to Zheng Chuchu.

She held the red gold peach hairpin in her hand, and said to Zheng Chuchu: "Return this hairpin to you, and return my aunt's jasper bead hairpin." ”

Zheng Yingying's temperament is very straightforward and crisp, but if she is not happy, it is possible to fight.

Zheng Chuchu didn't dare to say anything, so he quickly pulled out the hairpin from his head and handed it to her.

Zheng Yingying threw the red gold hairpin on the table, and her expression was still a little bad.

Seeing her like this, Zheng Chuchu couldn't help but say: "My hairpin is not a burying product, and it is not a loss-making transaction to exchange for your aunt's jasper hairpin." ”

"I know, or do you think I'd be so talkative?" Zheng Yingying sat down casually, touched the melon seeds on the table and began to knock.

"Don't knock on it, your teeth are open." Zheng Chuchu also sat down and asked casually, "Since you know that you don't lose, why bother taking the hairpin back?" ”

"Madame said that next month's Winter Ice Skill Meeting, take me and the seedlings, but my clothes don't match the jewelry, and I have to wear this hairpin." Zheng Yingying waved the jasper hairpin in her hand and said helplessly.

"Why didn't you call me there?" Zheng Chuchu said anxiously.

Zheng Yingying knocked the melon seeds, pursed her lips, and said, "Aren't you all set the Wen family?" What kind of cold wind are you blowing? ”

Zheng Chuchu blushed slightly, and said lightly: "You all know about this?" ”

"I'm afraid that the mother-in-law who pours Yexiang will know it, if it weren't for the fact that the eight or nine are not far from ten, the lady will not let the matter come out, even if she doesn't care about a few of us, can she still ignore the reputation of the third sister and the sixth sister?"

Zheng Yingying has always spoken straightforwardly, and Zheng Chuchu's ears turned red when she heard it, and she said shyly: "I just don't know if it's a big room or a second room?" ”

"As long as it's the Wen family, it's good, your marriage is set, even my aunt is happy, I think we, the concubines behind us, are somewhat hopeful."

Zheng Yingying herself is also happy, how Zheng Chuchu's marriage is, doesn't it represent the Lu family's attitude towards the husbands of these concubines?

After five or six days, the Wen family really sent someone to place an order.

After Zheng Chuchu and Aunt Qiu learned the news, they hugged each other and cried.

That day coincided with Zheng Guogong's retirement, although he didn't come forward, he also asked a few words.

He didn't care about the marriage of his concubine, and when he learned that he was the eldest son of the Wen family's second room, he was a little surprised, and praised the Lu family, saying that she was virtuous and decent.

After the Wen family left, the Lu family summoned Zheng Chuchu to Anheju, and Danzhu opened his mouth and told her about it.

Zheng Chuchu already had a bottom in his heart, listening to the beautiful music at the same time, and when he heard Danzhu say, 'The third brother of the Wen family', he was still a little disappointed in his heart.

There are only two brothers in the Wen family's big house, and they are the two most promising.

This Wen must be the brother of the second room.
