Chapter 4 Gardening
Mengyu and his wife left and right, helping the old lady out of the house. Xing'er followed behind Mengyu, and the third aunt followed behind his wife.
"The old lady beckoned, how dare I not go to the little monkey." Before the group went out, the second lady Mengqi opened the curtain and walked in from outside. When he came to the left side of the old lady, he squeezed Mengyu to the side, took over by himself, and helped the old lady. "The little monkey wasn't shy just now, he was preparing food for the old lady. Although there is no way to pick peaches now to wish the ancestors longevity and Tianqi, it is also the filial piety of the little monkey. The second lady looked at the old lady with a bright face.
"This monkey girl is still addicted." The old lady reluctantly turned around and complained to her and the third aunt. turned around and patted the second lady's hand again, and said, "Okay, okay, it's enough to have your mother with me." Then he pointed to Mengyu and said, "Go and accompany your sister, she is difficult to come out, and your sisters should also contact and contact each other." ”
"The little monkey obeys." The second lady made another monkey-like greeting. The old lady laughed and shook her head.
Is this the ancient colorful clothes to entertain relatives? Although she doesn't like the second lady, she gets along with her grandmother really happily and is very good at coaxing the elderly to be happy.
The second lady let go of the old lady's hand, one step shorter, and walked side by side with Mengyu. There was only Xing'er who was two steps behind by Mengyu's side, and Tao'er and the other maids were far behind.
"Sister, have you heard? The person who made a baby kiss with you came to the door yesterday and quit the family. The second lady whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear, close to Mengyu.
What, she's still booked?!
Mengyu lowered her head and was silent.
"Giggles, my sister is lying in the room every day, I must not know such news." The second lady laughed wildly, and the old lady who walked in front looked back and nodded with a smile, thinking that they got along well. "The maids who came forward to serve yesterday were all saying that the man looked like a jade tree in the wind, talked elegantly, wore a cyan robe, hung jade around his waist, and was dressed as a scholar, and the lord also greatly appreciated him." The second lady felt that the news just now was not enough to stimulate the dream language, and deliberately focused on describing how good her marriage partner was.
"What, does my sister have a crush on him?" It's really a bit exciting, and Dream Yu replied not to be outdone.
The second lady was stunned for a moment, and after coming back to her senses, she smiled even more exaggeratedly: "Sister don't need to be angry, what my sister said is the truth, and after he divorces you, he should ask to marry the fourth lady of the mighty Hou family." That young lady was notoriously gentle and virtuous, and had both talents. is also a young lady, raised by her grandmother's side since she was a child, and is very knowledgeable. After going to Beijing last year, a flower banquet moved the capital. The sons who begged to marry her were about to break the threshold of their family. But she just fell in love with the one who was married to you. The elders in the family came to say goodbye, but they were told that they had already made a baby kiss with the third lady who had been bedridden in our house for a long time, so they had no choice but to give up. The second lady laughed gloating as she set off bombs one after another. Now people come to the door to withdraw from their relatives, it must be for the sake of marrying the mighty Hou Yong. After all, half of the world in this Lan Dynasty was still beaten down by the old lady of their family, and now the Weiwu Marquis Mansion is full of saints. ”
Shen Ma Lan Dynasty, I have heard it all wood! Could it be that she has traveled to an alternate era? I'm sad, I already know how to memorize more ancient poems, words and whatever, and I can use what I have learned! Now who remembers anything else except for the one that was required to memorize and take the test when he went to school. What is the Dream of Red Mansions, no one in it knows everything, how can they remember the poems, lyrics, and songs in it.
"Does my father agree?" Mengyu asked in a low voice.
The second lady's smile became even thicker: "Although there is no clear answer, my father has already said that he wants to discuss it with the old lady." But this is not for the grandmother to disagree. Your mother and her mother were close friends in the boudoir, so they decided to be doll-kissed. It's just that there was no document at that time, only the exchange of jade pendants as an agreement. What's more, the Li family, who was from the third rank of the military department that day, is now in the second rank of Shangshu Ling. And your mother died early in order to give birth to you, and the one who married you was the only sister-in-law in the family, and the current guard with a knife walking in front of the emperor can be described as having a bright future. Now their family is excusable for them to withdraw from the marriage on the grounds that you are not in good health and afraid that you will have no descendants. After all, there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great. The second lady said with a sigh, but her eyes were full of ridicule and schadenfreude.
"How did my sister know so clearly? If you say this to me, aren't you afraid that your grandmother will blame you? Mengyu raised her head and asked the second lady Mengqi with tears in her eyes.
"Sister, why did you say this, my sister is also for your good, after all, your life's event, if you are the last to know, my sister will blame my sister for knowing and not suing." The second lady covered her mouth and laughed, obviously wanting to see Mengyu's embarrassment.
"Whether this marriage is successful or not, it is not up to my sister to have the final say. Even if it doesn't work, my identity as a concubine is here, and my father and grandmother will never treat me badly. And sister, a concubine born to an aunt, even if the father dotes on the third aunt, he can't force the young master of a wealthy family to marry you. What do you have to be proud of, in the end, you are just a big family as a concubine. It's like a flat wife, but there is always a main room pressed on it all your life, and this life is not very comfortable. "When Xiaoruo lived with her grandmother, when she was a child, she was always ridiculed by children for having no father and mother, and every time she fought with them, after being told by the teacher to her grandmother, her grandmother always hugged herself and cried. But not having parents doesn't mean that anyone can bully her. Now that it has become a dream, how can you allow a little concubine to be so rampant.
After speaking, Mengyu didn't even look at her, walked forward, and walked to her grandmother's side. Because Mengyu knows that in this life, if her grandmother really pities herself, she will protect herself and will not let herself be wronged. The second lady was angry, shook her handkerchief, and chased after her.
"Grandmother, Mengyu is a little tired, shall we go to the pavilion in front and sit down?"
In the pavilion.
A gust of wind blew, and the pear blossoms fell all over the trees. People walk by, and the soles of their feet are covered with flower petals. The maids had already wrapped the stone bench in the pavilion with a mat. The table was also filled with snacks and tea. Enjoying such a beautiful scenery, Dream Yu felt a little smoky and drunk. It's just that this wind has been blowing for a long time, and my head hurts a little.
"Look at your little face, if you can't bear it, go back and lie down, grandmother won't blame you." The old lady touched Mengyu's face lovingly.
"No, Mengyu wants to spend more time with her grandmother. In the future, Mengyu will have to take care of her body and serve her grandmother well. "Who can't be coquettish, do more, and get used to it.
"Yu girl, it's time for you to take care of your body, but not to accompany your grandmother. In a few years, you will also get married, your mother-in-law's family is no better than your mother's family, and there are a lot of things to learn, otherwise after you get married, your mother-in-law will not serve you well, and you will have a hard time giving you small shoes to wear. The old lady said earnestly, with worry, regret, and sympathy flashing in her eyes.
"Dream language will learn hard, and I won't disappoint my grandmother." At this moment, Mengyu made up her mind that she must study hard and become a famous lady who meets the current social standards.
"Well, grandmother is a little tired, too. Go back, and I won't keep you lunch." Xing'er, come over and help Miss go back to rest. ”
"Luzhu and Mengqi should go back first, and the concubine will wait for her mother to go back." The old lady nodded, and with her help, she stood up.
"Then the concubine will take the second lady to the concubine to sit down a little, and leave the second lady for a meal." The third aunt smiled and asked her wife for instructions, and her wife agreed. Then, the two left one after the other.
"Then Mengyu will go back first, and then ask my grandmother and mother tomorrow." Dream is blessed.
"Good boy, go ahead." After the grandmother and wife left, Mengyu left the pavilion with Apricot and Peach.
