Chu Huaixian came back, the second master of the housekeeper Chu went out to pick him up, and his uncle and nephew came to see Mrs. Chu. The second wife of Chu and the third old man of Chu were both here, and they said very enthusiastically: "Huaixian is back." ”

"Huaixian, come over to Grandmother's side." Chu Huaixian is Mrs. Chu's first beloved grandson, Mrs. Chu smiled as soon as she saw Chu Huaixian, and asked him to sit beside her and speak: "It's too late to come back, you will come back for the New Year in a few days, let your grandmother worry, you have a letter from Lao Tzu, and he will come back after the New Year." Wait for him to come back and let him beat you up, and see if you still run around. ”

After that, he asked Mr. Chen: "He accompanied you, and I let you go out, where is he now?" Mr. Chen was sent to his father after Chu Huaixian's assassination, and Chu Huaixian covered it up with words: "I thought of something to go back to my father, and others were afraid of going back to bad words, so I asked Mr. Chen to run away." ”

Second Master Chu heard that he was worried, this nephew was young before, and he could still hold him in the palm of his hand and let him come as he wished. Of course, it is not a disadvantage to eat, but in some places, the second master of Chu is very in charge. For example, with Chu Huaixian's little house, the family sent a lot of things, and the second master of Chu said to Chu Huaixian how good this kid is.

In the past, Chu Huaixian still listened, but he didn't want him to get older, become more assertive, and gradually distance himself from himself. It's that the personal servants who enter Xi'er and enter the wealth are all picked by themselves, which makes the second master Chu often feel uneasy. He also wanted to influence this nephew's family affairs, and he was frustrated in small things, and the second master of Chu was unhappy.

"What are you talking about, I'm not afraid of your jokes, the second uncle is older, and he has eaten more salt than you, although he can't be mentioned, he can teach you some things in the world." Second Master Chu came to inquire. Mrs. Chu was always deceived by the petty intentions of the second master of Chu, and she also smiled at Chu Huaixian and said, "Yes, if the second uncle is close to something, you can talk to your second uncle first and get an idea." Your third uncle is young, not a few years older than you, but you don't need to ask him. ”

Master Chu San was born to a concubine, and he has always been a little shorter at home, and at this time, he didn't speak but laughed. He is indeed only a few years older than Chu Huaixian, and he has only been married for more than a year.

Chu Huaixian knew that the second uncle wanted to have these wordy words, and he also had to grasp the trends between father and son to inquire. With this kind of intelligence, can't you set up a family business by yourself? Chu Huaixian looks down on the second uncle the most, and of course he will not be given his share in the family. He failed to achieve fame, and after being discouraged, he helped Mrs. Tai to take care of the house, but Young Master Chu and his wife were absent all the year round, and the second master of Chu gradually tasted the sweetness of being in power at home. The slaves and maids are stammering, and they are good at doing things in the officialdom under the name of the eldest brother Chu Changfu, and the second master of Chu is obsessed with managing this family, and he has a lot of crooked thoughts if he doesn't want to leave it.

"For next year's exam, there is a test question I wrote and sent to my father for approval." Chu Huaixian replied, Second Master Chu's face was cold, he was hit hard by this fame, he didn't like this the most, Second Master Chu shut up.

Mrs. Chu didn't like it, so she took Chu Huaixian's hand and praised him: "My good grandson, you are the best at reading, your father is a strict and square person, he also wants to praise you for reading well." Wow, you're going to fight. You didn't come back a long time ago, Mrs. Huang came to see me, saying that her grandson went out, and was squeezed by people and started with others, and there were many people's families, so she suffered a loss. If you have a lot of family, you won't suffer. ”

Mrs. Chu lowered her head and sneered, Mrs. Tai was so biased that she couldn't show off, and everyone showed off when they held their grandson to fight, only this Mrs. of our family. Then again, I can't blame her for being too partial, this family is all relying on the eldest brother Mrs. Chu, who is Mrs. Chu's biological son. The second master of Chu is not a concubine, he is a girl who takes over the house.

"Huaixian is back, and my mother can rest assured. When you go out, Mrs. Tai thinks about you for three meals a day. "Master Chu San is only in his early twenties, and he has always been a mindless person.

Talking and laughing in the room, Mrs. Tai said a few words, and asked someone to show something to Chu Huaixian: "I found it newly, I wanted to give it to you before, but I don't remember which box it was in." This can be found and left for you to this day. Asked someone to send it to Chu Huaixian's room, and then pulled him to say a few words, Mrs. Chu remembered again: "Let the people in the kitchen add dishes, and Brother Xian'er has made all the dishes he likes to eat." ”

The girls and mothers agreed repeatedly, which made people look at it without blushing. Second Master Chu opened his mouth again, this was another thing that he was worried about: "Huaixian took a girl in the other courtyard, I heard that it was three?" You're still young, but your body still matters. "My nephew is now separated from himself, and the second master of Chu is uncomfortable with anything.

When Mrs. Chu heard this, she also remembered: "Your second uncle told me that I was so angry. The fox in the township hooked up with you, didn't you? Call them and I'll scold them. ”

"Grandmother and second uncle are mistaken," If it weren't for grandmother here, Chu Huaixian would really be too lazy to pay attention to Second Master Chu. He smiled and replied to his grandmother's words: "When my grandson left his grandmother, he was distracted. Later, when I went there, I found that my grandmother was right, and it was really good to be by my grandmother's side. But my grandson also went, so I came back for fear that my grandmother would laugh at me. Mrs. Chu laughed: "Nonsense, I don't laugh at you, I only laugh at you." ”

"I haven't been in the courtyard for a long time, and I think there are still few people. I bought two girls, one girl has no one else in the family, but a little sister can't be left behind, I think that my grandmother usually pities the old and the poor, I buy a girl to let their sisters separate is not good, so I bought it together. Chu Huaixian hesitated: "It's just because there are few suspects in the other courtyard, so I want to add a few people." They came up to serve, and I asked for someone to serve on the way, so I took them on the road. If the grandmother thinks it's bad, let them go. ”

Mrs. Chu was relieved when she heard this: "What's the matter, if you don't serve enough people, just add it, since you brought it to the capital, I will reward them for serving them well." This matter passed like this, and the second master of Chu fell behind again, and he didn't figure out whether it was a girl or a receiver.

After dinner, Chu Huaixian went back to the room, the courtyard was as white as a mirror, and the girls came up from the verandahs on both sides to greet him. Chu Huaixian asked Chunhong: "How did you settle the three girls I brought?" ”

Chunhong walked behind him and replied: "It's cold and cold to come here, let them rest." Wait for the son's orders, and then send them to send envoys. ”

The plum blossoms in the courtyard smelled good, and Chu Huaixian said to Chunhong when he entered the room: "The lotus let her follow Qiubai, you take Xiaochu, Xiaoyi is still small, everyone don't be embarrassed for her." The girls agreed, and Dong Ran whispered to Qiu Bai: "This is going up, I heard the people around the second master say that Xiao Chu is the son......"

Qiubai and Dongran came out to take the towel, and when they heard Dongran say this, Qiubai couldn't help but smile: "Your eyes are red? Then run away. Dong Ran sneered behind him, and whispered to himself: "It's really a red-eyed person, it's not me." ”

Back in the room, Chu Huaixian had already slept. Chunhong put on a small jacket that got up at night, and came out to check the candle again. Winter Dye is about to say again: "My sister has always been the first proper person." Chunhong smiled, tapped her finger on Dong Ran's forehead, and said in a low voice: "If you have wordy words, you can talk about it again, don't make the boy can't sleep, this will take advantage of your heart." ”

Fuyuran pursed his lips, but turned around and walked outside in accordance with the words. The little girl Jia'er was puzzled, she was the one who followed Chunhong. Attentively sent Chunhong to Chu Huaixian's room to sleep, Jia'er tucked the quilt corner for Chunhong, and said in a low voice: "Why does my sister always let her?" "Sister Chunhong's father and mother are the second housekeepers in the family, and Sister Dongran's parents are just the housekeepers in the house. Judging from Jia'er's age, why let her?

"The more my sister lets it, the more sharp Sister Winter Dye is." Jia'er said, Chunhong, who smiled generously, "shh I call you at night, don't sleep too hard. ”

The whispers of the girls, Chu Huaixian is not seventy or eighty, he can hear it. Chu Huaixian, who was asleep with his eyes closed, didn't move, why didn't he accept the girl in the room, it was this annoying, and everyone was sucked. The eldest prince of Chu grew up in a rich atmosphere since he was a child, and he was accustomed to being taken for granted.

The north wind was tight overnight, and the snow was not still drifting, but there was a tendency to increase. Lin Xiaochu woke up Xiaoyi and Lotus early, and lowered his voice before going out to explain: "We can do whatever we are arranged, it's very cold this day, Xiaoyi, if you go out to sweep the corridor or something, you can endure it, and if someone doesn't like what they say, you can endure it." ”

Lin Xiaoyi nodded vigorously to show that he would endure it. Xiao Chu told Lotus again: "I won't let us stay in the room when I first come, if you are asked to work with the rough girl, you can endure it." Suddenly remembered, Xiao Chu told Lotus seriously: "If you follow the rough girl and let me go to the room, don't be uncomfortable with me, it's not that I want to be like this." ”

When I opened the door, there were a bunch of maid mothers, and when I walked out of the courtyard gate, there were a lot of servant women who were in charge of the family, and none of them would be easy to mess with. There are also those who stay in the spring and stay in the summer, although they try their best to make up for it. Returning to Beijing is a place they are familiar with, and it is not certain that they will not be able to solve the knots in their hearts. It's really necessary to be careful everywhere, to be outside first and inside, and to take care of the lotus flowers first.

Lotus understood a lot this time: "Let you be the housekeeper grandma, I like it, you can bring the deed I am not." After the joke, the lotus smiled and said: "I have something to tell you, you have something to tell me, and Xiaoyi has something to tell the two of us." ”

The three of them have decided, and someone is already knocking on the door outside, and it is Chunji coming: "Get up, Ming'er can't wait for me to shout," the north wind couldn't suppress her voice. The door opened suddenly, and three smiles appeared: "I've gotten up a long time ago, you come to call us, you are hard." ”

Chun Zhen looked them up and down, and suddenly laughed: "Although Sister Dong Ran has a sharp mouth, her heart is good, she is afraid that you will get up late and provoke others, so she let me run this trip." It seems that I ran away in vain. ”
