All the cognition of Chungui to his grandfather and grandmother comes from his mother's narration, and now, she can no longer verify whether her grandmother is in line with her cognition, only to see her maternal grandfather, more than ten years of bitter cold and torture have not been able to destroy the elegant atmosphere, the body is old but not much decay, the face of the narrative, not half impassioned, need to look carefully to see the corners of the eyes wet red, the old man does not speak much, and even easy to misunderstand as cold, but Chungui can feel that his grandfather's concerned gaze has not been removed from her.

The two uncles were very silent when they first met, but the second uncle who returned from the spring was very talkative.

She and Chungui talked about Tielingwei, but they didn't talk much about how the bitter cold land was difficult, but more about the rare local anecdotes, there was an old woman who claimed to be on the body of a fox fairy, a mountain ginseng that turned into a human shape when the moon was full, a strange river that never froze when it snowed, and it is said that there lived a goddess turned into moonlight......

The eldest aunt is a mother who often talks about the return of spring, and she is extremely lamented by the joys and sorrows of the world in the snap of her fingers.

The second aunt had three sons but no daughters, and was extremely envious of the eldest aunt's children.

Spring return has a cousin and a cousin, the cousin is already over twenty years old as a wife and mother, the cousin-in-law also came to the capital with his grandfather this time, the eldest aunt mentioned that his son-in-law is full of praise, "the in-laws are chivalrous, we only arrived in Tielingwei, it was really difficult to cross the sun, thanks to the generosity of the in-laws, we can finally settle down in Tielingwei, the eldest mother has been protected by the Ma family since she was a child, and she has never suffered from hunger and cold in such a cold place, not to mention being bullied by others, it is really a great luck in misfortune." The son-in-law and the eldest mother already have a childhood friendship, and they became husband and wife, and the son-in-law loves the eldest mother even more, and the family background of the in-laws is very solid in Tielingwei, and the son-in-law because the eldest mother wants to come to the capital, he will accompany the eldest mother into Beijing without saying a word, and the in-laws will not condemn it. ”

The eldest cousin's name is Wan Yan, and her low eyebrows and eyes are extremely demure.

The little cousin is three years younger than Chungui, and now she is not yet in time, so she is still waiting in the boudoir, her temperament is extremely hearty, but Chungui left her fingertips and palms are cocooned, and she should have done a lot of hard work over the years, her boudoir name is called Huaying, and Chungui understands that the names of the two sisters are from the sentence "Huaying of Huaiwanyan" in "Far Travel".

Lan Ting is dedicated to the maternal ancestors

The father's family set up a reception banquet, and the whole Taishi Mansion and even the branches of the Xuanzhuo Hall heard about the temporary residence of the foreign family returning from the Spring Return.

Xu is life in Tielingwei over the years is really not easy, the two uncles of the spring return have already swept away the habits of weak scholars, look at the physique is extremely strong, words and deeds also seem to be with a rude attitude that is obviously different from Shi Lin, and can persuade Lan Ting to be drunk, this time he is pulling the spring return to visit the garden at night, and even took the initiative to climb the "wall flower" of Xu Ge's hometown next door, and the spring return is called a joke.

What makes Chungui "admire" the most is the second uncle's second son, her third cousin, who can jump on the courtyard wall of Xu Ge's hometown with a slight jump, and live like a civet cat landing on the tile without making a sound.

"How did the third uncle enter the garden?" Lan Ting was also surprised.

Third Brother Li grabbed the back of his head in embarrassment, and explained, "I saw that I didn't pull my cousin out of the table, I was worried that your cousin wouldn't be able to surrender if you were drunk, so I followed quietly, and these courtyard walls in your mansion are not an obstacle to me...... Don't be a scribe, don't know kung fu, and drink too much, don't learn to climb the wall, it's too dangerous, and it's terrible to fall. ”

In Li Sange's opinion, Lan Tingwan is a weak scholar.

The old lady in the hesitant garden naturally heard that there was such a foreign surname living in the Taishi's mansion, so she first sent Mama Su to investigate, and when Mama Su came back, she couldn't wait to ask, "How is the foreign family of the Gu family?" ”

"The old lady of the Li family has passed away a long time ago, and the old slave is not easy to see the old lady of the Li family, so I don't know what the temperament of the old lady is, but look at the two daughters-in-law, the eldest daughter-in-law is just that, in the end, the squire was born in the door to treat people and things is not a joke, the little daughter-in-law, originally from a small family, not to mention the temperament, is also powerful, even the old slave can't see it...... It's the aunt and grandmother of the Li family, who act like an official eunuch. ”

The old lady said disdainfully, "It's a pity that she doesn't have the life of the eunuch's daughter, doesn't she say that she is married to an ordinary peasant family in Tielingwei?" Her aunt also came to the capital, and he looked like a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but he was a clumsy and clumsy person who didn't know a lot of words. ”

"It seems that the aunt and grandmother of the Li family are also unwilling, otherwise they are already married to be their wives and mothers, why do they want to go back to the capital?

When the old lady of the Li family was convicted, the aunt and grandmother of the Li family were already the age of governors, and they must still remember the pomp and circumstance of the family at that time. ”

He lowered his voice again and discussed with the old lady.

On the second day, the old lady invited the two uncles and wives of the Li family to meet each other, and the second aunt pulled the eldest aunt to discuss the matter, "Chun'er mentioned the matter in the Taishi's mansion, and I said that we should stay away from this lady, so it is better to find a reason to refuse, so as not to embarrass Chun'er." ”

The eldest aunt also remembered her husband's advice, and it seemed that even Lan Ting had signaled that they did not need to care about the hesitant garden, and there was a saying that the grandmother in the ancestral family liked to be quiet, and the implication was that it was best not to disturb, although it was a pretext to hear it, but the eldest aunt did not think it was appropriate to get involved in the internal affairs of the Taishi Mansion.

I had already thought of the wording, but I was dragged away by the eldest daughter to discuss, "Although there is a cousin-in-law who has repeatedly invited us, it is not that we have taken the initiative to take refuge in Zhaomen, but now it is a fact that Mrs. Zhao has taken the initiative to invite her, isn't it too rude for us to refuse?" As soon as we returned to the capital, we had a slander, and we must influence the younger brothers and sisters to talk about marriage in the future, and the uncle and mother were reluctant to go, because they were worried that they would be angered and reproached by Mrs. Zhao because of Sister Chun, and they lost face, but the daughter felt that our family had to listen to a few complaints, and the mother was not embarrassed by the uncle, and the daughter accompanied the mother to see Mrs. Tai. ”

The eldest aunt sighed, "Our Li family used to be an official eunuch, so we couldn't have been so low-voiced, but what ...... That's it, it's useless to mention these words, you're right, since we are sending people under the fence, even if we don't want to be blamed for Chun'er's slander, we can't be rude to Mrs. Zhao, so let Yan'er accompany me. ”

Of course, the old lady would not say anything unpleasant, but complimented her eldest aunt, and even took Li Wanyan's hand and looked up and down and praised her, and directly compared her with Chungui, "Brother Ting's daughter-in-law is outstanding, but the eldest sister of the Li family is well-mannered, the most difficult thing is to suffer in the bitter cold land of northern Liaoning over the years, and you can maintain such a demeanor, how many ladies in the capital can't compare to you!" ”

Then Li Wanyan turned out to be a frequent visitor to the Hesitant Garden.

However, the old lady did not have much opportunity to sow discord, because soon the imperial court issued an edict that Lan Ting was about to follow the king of Zhou to leave Beijing.
