Early the next morning, Zhong Lingyu went to Mrs. Sun after washing. When she arrived at the main courtyard, she saw that Mrs. Fifth Aunt had already arrived, and she was combing Mrs. Sun's hair with her own hands; Yu Yue'an sat quietly on the side. Seeing her come in, Yu Yue hurriedly stood up, with a smile on her face, and there was no uneasy, awkward, or embarrassed expression in her expression. If Zhong Lingyu hadn't known about last night's incident, he would have thought that last night's incident was a dream of his own.

Zhong Lingyu greeted Mrs. Sun in a dignified manner.

"Come, come." Old Madam Sun had long since lost the anger of last night, beckoned to Zhong Lingyu with a smile, and pointed to the plate full of flowers in the maid's hand, "Come, take two of them and put them on." ”

Zhong Lingyu didn't twist either, and generously picked a jasmine flower in the flower plate, asked Chunli to put a hairpin on her head, and saluted Mrs. Sun to thank her.

Mrs. Sun smiled and said to Mrs. Wugu: "These flowers have to be worn by the little girl to look good." We, the old women, have spoiled these fresh flowers. ”

"Where are you an old woman, you look like you're thirty or forty years old, and you're still young." Mrs. Wugu flattered.

Old Madam Sun waved her hand, looked at Yu Yue again, and said, "Yue'er is good anywhere, but she is too shy." Our daughters can be generous. ”

"Yue'er has never seen the world before, and now that she has been taught by the old lady, she will definitely not embarrass your old man in the future." The fifth aunt can speak.

While talking, Bai and Guo each took their daughters into the door, and the room became lively.

Everyone sat down after saluting, Guo was still as silent as ever, but his eyes glanced at Zhong Lingyu from time to time, as if he was examining something.

Zhong Lingyu was uncomfortable with her. Finally, after eating, he stood up and said goodbye, and said with a smile: "Uncle and grandmother, because I have to go back tomorrow, I need to buy some gifts." I want to go out on the streets today. Without waiting for Mrs. Sun to speak, she added, "The affairs of the sister-in-law's mansion are also busy, so I can go alone." With Mother Xu and the maids by her side, it will be fine. ”

She was showing that she didn't want anyone to accompany her.

Old Madam Sun said with a smile: "I didn't keep you yesterday because I thought there was nothing wrong." But I received a post early this morning, the old lady of the government who has experienced the family will have a birthday tomorrow, and she wants to set up a running water table for a day. If you finally come to your uncle's and grandfather's house, and go back without seeing any of the world, won't you make your cousins laugh? So, if you go back, don't mention it yet, and wait until you have eaten with me at an adult's house. ”

Zhong Lingyu knew that it was what Mama Wu said last night: if she was willing to be Sun Xuewen's family, Mrs. Sun would find an excuse to keep her for a few days.

She smiled and said: "In the future, when my mother and I move to Fucheng, what will my uncle and grandmother have to see the world, if you don't take me, I will go with you." Not this time, the family is really inseparable. After coming out for so many days, I don't know what happened to the tea garden and tea house, and whether there will be an accident. My aunt and uncle also knew that our family relied on this to eat, and we really didn't dare to let go for too long. There are many bad things at home, and my mother is afraid that she can't stand it at home alone, so I need to go home and watch it to rest assured. ”

"Look." Old Madam Sun pointed at Zhong Lingyu and smiled at Mrs. Fifth Aunt, "If you don't look at people, you still think that this is said by a housekeeper wife in her thirties or forties." At a young age, this is also a bit worrying. ”

Mrs. Wugu saw Zhong Lingyu yesterday, and she was on guard, and she specially spent some money to ask Mama Wu about it. Mama Wu has always admired Zhong Lingyu very much, and she also knows the thoughts of the fifth aunt, so she naturally picked up the affairs of the Zhong family and said what she could say, and praised Zhong Lingyu again, and also said that the old lady saw that Zhong Lingyu looked like Mrs. Gu and rewarded her with many good things. The meaning of her words was to reassure Mrs. Wugu, with the Zhong family's family background and Zhong Lingyu's intelligence, she would not compete with them for the position of the eldest young master and concubine of the Sun Mansion. Hearing those words, Mrs. Wugu was both relieved and very unfair: why should her daughter be a concubine; Zhong Lingyu, the daughter of a merchant, is like a golden nobleman, which makes the Sun family look at her.

But she can't, who told her that her daughter doesn't look like Mrs. Sun's own sister.

Because of these reasons, Mrs. Wugu's mood when she faced Zhong Lingyu today was much more complicated than yesterday.

Seeing that Mrs. Sun kept Zhong Lingyu, she had more thoughts in her heart, and immediately smiled and followed Mrs. Sun's words, and said: "Miss Zhong is so capable at a young age, she really deserves to be the granddaughter of her aunt, and she has the blood of the Sun family on her body." ”

This sycophant is too obviously low-level.

Not only Zhong Lingyu, but also the Bai and Guo clans all had a trace of disdain in their eyes.

Old Madam Sun is old and refined, no matter what she thinks in her heart, her face is not visible at all, and she said to Zhong Lingyu: "Since you remember your family, even if I force you to stay, you will not be able to live steadily." Well, if you want to go back, go back. Fortunately, after a while you moved in, and there will be time to meet. ”

"Thank you for your kindness." Zhong Lingyu saluted.

Old Madam Sun waved her hand: "If you want to go out to buy something, then go early." Then he asked, "You really don't need your sister-in-law to accompany you?" ”

"Not really." Zhong Lingyu said with a smile, "I have also been to Fucheng with my father a few times before. Now that there is an old steward with him, it will be fine. ”

"That's good." Mrs. Sun explained again, "The silk shop under the big locust tree in the east of the city belongs to our family, if you want anything, just send someone to find the shopkeeper." ”

"Yes." Zhong Lingyu said two more words, and then withdrew.

led Ding's mother and Chunli and others out of the main courtyard, and walked out of the second gate along the corridor, and did not see the Sun family bothering him again, Zhong Lingyu breathed a sigh of relief.

Yuan Haokang had already received the message from the little maid, put on the carriage and waited at the gate outside, and when he saw Zhong Lingyu and the others come out and get into the car, he hurriedly threw the horsewhip to let the carriage move forward. It wasn't until he turned a corner and estimated that the gatehouse of the Sun Mansion couldn't see them, that he said in front: "Miss, Shopkeeper Ge is waiting for you in our yard." ”

When she first came to live in Sun's Mansion, Zhong Lingyu made an appointment with Shopkeeper Ge that if there was something wrong with the tea house or the newly bought tea garden, Shopkeeper Ge would ask the maid to send her a letter, and she would ask Mama Wu to arrange a place to meet with Shopkeeper Ge.

It's just that these days, there has been no movement at all from Shopkeeper Ge, and even Zhong Lingyu almost forgot about Shopkeeper Ge, she thought that there was nothing going on outside, so she lived with peace of mind.

Listening to Yuan Haokang's meaning, it seems that there is nothing outside, but that Shopkeeper Ge did not alarm her.

After thinking about it all the way, the carriage stopped in front of the Zhong family's house.
