Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Tree Wants to Be Quiet
"Girl, why didn't you go to the old lady's side today?" Xiao She'er asked Wei Yining stupidly.
"Yes, girl, don't you always go over to beat the old lady's leg at this time?" Chunjiao was also puzzled.
"My aunt is back, and my grandmother naturally wants to talk to her about herself, because it's not good that there are too many people around." Wei Yining is embroidering the tail feathers of a crane, the stitching is delicate and changeable, and it seems to be alive in the light.
"It's still the girl's thoughtfulness," Chunjiao said with a smile: "The two of you haven't seen each other for so many years, so naturally there are a lot of private things to say." We went to the white-eyed and red-eyed ones, and the ones that were not disgusting. ”
Wei Yining smiled and stopped talking.
In addition to this reason, she mainly guards herself from being a target for others.
Aunt Mei seems to be timid, but in fact, she is by no means a simple character.
It's a pity that she didn't give birth to a son, otherwise Wei Yining would not have any doubt that she would do something to get rid of the Bao family and let herself be corrected.
Now, Aunt Mei should have put all her bets on the twin sons of the Shao family.
She and Wei Yiwan became a thorn in her side.
Wei Yiwan has the support of the Bao family, and Aunt Mei doesn't dare to do anything to her on her face.
But he is different, a few words of gossip can provoke the Bao mother and daughter to turn the finger on themselves.
When the fight here is over, both sides will lose.
Aunt Mei's side is probably already in a boat and has fulfilled her wish.
"In the future, we will only need to settle the province in the morning and dusk, and don't run to the old lady the rest of the time." Wei Yining said to the two maids.
In Mrs. Zhu's room, Wei Aluan poured a bowl of tea for her mother and held it with her own hands.
Mrs. Zhu had just woken up, and she looked a little tired.
Slowly took two sips of tea and said, "Ah Song is still asleep?" ”
"This kid is so sleepy that he can't wake up." Wei Aluan mentioned his youngest son, and his tone was full of doting.
"Put him to sleep! Children's homes are the time to grow brains, sleep more and grow better. Mrs. Zhu nodded and said.
"How long has it been since the five girls came back? I think my mother seems to like her. Wei Aluan asked while peeling the loquat.
"This child is a hard worker," Mrs. Zhu sighed and said, "I have been in the house for more than a month, and I see that she is diligent and does not talk much, so I ask her to always serve in front of her." She also said that seven or eight days before Ma Lai Shun reported the news, she guessed that you were coming back. ”
"How did she guess?" Wei Aluan couldn't help but be curious when he heard this.
Mrs. Zhu then told her about the dream she had and Wei Yining's interpretation of the dream for her.
Wei Aluan listened to it and thought for a long time, and said with a smile: "This girl is a smart person, unlike her father. ”
When Wei Zongzhao had an accident, Wei Aluan was no longer in the capital. I only learned about the whole thing from the letter Mrs. Zhu wrote to her, and I felt strange at the time, but first, it had already been decided, and secondly, I was afraid that it would make Mrs. Zhu sad by saying too much, so I didn't mention it again.
The old man Wei Xun died of a sudden illness on the way to accompany him on the tour of Yanzhou, and he didn't have time to leave his last words.
Mrs. Zhu chose her stepson, and Wei Aluan also helped with the idea, and finally chose Wei Zongzhao.
Not long after Wei Zongzhao became the lord, Wei Aluan went to Qingzhou with her husband to take office, and since then she has been traveling around the country, even if she can occasionally return to Beijing to visit, she will not stay long before leaving.
While the mother and daughter were talking, Aunt Mei walked in with a plate of freshly made snacks.
"Old lady, aunt and grandmother, I'm afraid that you won't stop eating lunch, so I specially brought a snack. How many brothers can you rest? Do you want to use some too? Aunt Mei stepped forward with a smile and put the snack on the table.
It just so happened that Wei Changan accompanied the three sons of the Shao family to walk in, and several children of the Shao family were very educated, and when they entered the house, they greeted Mrs. Zhu and Aunt Mei.
When Bao rushed over, he saw a room full of people in the old lady's room, and Aunt Mei greeted her left and right, smiling very brightly.
Bao Shi couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, but soon walked in with a calm expression.
sat down and talked to Mrs. Zhu and said, "I thought I would come early and ask my sister, do you have anything you particularly want to eat for dinner?" I still remember a few things, but I'm afraid I can't remember them accurately. ”
"It's rare for my sister-in-law to bother," Wei Aluan said with a smile: "I haven't returned to Beijing for so many years, and I think about the food I ate when I was a child every day. I first told a few children that if I can go back to the capital to live permanently this time, I must make up for all the debts I have owed over the years. ”
When Bao heard this, he instructed his maid Chunrong: "You write down all the things that your aunt and grandmother like to eat, and go back and tell the kitchen." ”
He asked again: "Why is the spring warbler gone?" I haven't seen her since I woke up. ”
As he was talking, Wei Yi walked in like a willow, wearing a long skirt embroidered with folded branches and begonias, holding a palace fan with pinched gold silk in his hand, and greeted everyone weakly.
Before she could sit down, the twin daughters came together, dressed like flowers and branches, like peaches and plums.
"You juniors go out to the garden and walk around, and don't accompany us elderly people to talk about some sesame seeds and rotten grain," Mrs. Zhu waved her hand and said, "Besides, there are too many people, and the house is boring, and the four girls are weak, so don't suffer from heat stroke." ”
Bao Shi also hurriedly said: "Yes! Brother Nan, they only came today, and you should take them for a good stroll. Yiwan, your third brother is afraid that he has never eaten the jade lily cake in our house, I asked the girl to bring it to the water pavilion for you, and eat it while enjoying the lotus flowers. ”
Aunt Mei also smiled and said: "Yiroom IKEA, Brother Chang'an still has to study, you two have nothing to do, just accompany the eldest brother and the second brother around the house, no matter what people say, they are also guests, but you must not be neglected." ”
Bao raised his eyes to look at Aunt Mei, with a few beams of cold light in his eyes.
Aunt Mei's eyes looked away, and she didn't look at her at all.
In the garden, Wei Chang'an has long since disappeared, and I don't know if he really went to the study to study.
Wei Yiwan had already been instructed by her mother, and secretly looked at Shao Yang, only to feel that although he was not as handsome as the eldest brother and second brother, he was extremely manly.
Shao Yang looked at no one before and after, and said to Wei Yiwan, "Fourth sister, I want to ask you for a favor." ”
Wei Yiwan saw that he had a request for himself, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and asked in a wry manner: "I don't know what the third brother wants me to help with?" I'm not just a random person. ”
Shao Yang scratched the back of his head a little embarrassed, and said straight: "Why don't you see the fifth sister?" When I entered Beijing yesterday, I heard that she dared to save people, which is really a woman's eyebrows. It's just that there are elders here today, so I can't ask her, can you call her out? I wanted her to tell me a good story about the situation. ”
