Chapter 16: Together

Su Xiaoniang's face was full of eagerness, she originally wanted to step forward to stop the rebuttal, but after listening to Zhong Xiaoniang's words, she retreated, and she felt that she was at a loss. What's more, the head of the family is not there, no matter how clever she is, it won't help.

Sima Daining moved her gaze to Su Xiaoniang and said in a pleading tone: "A-Niang? Auntie? ”

Su Xiaoniang realized that Sima Daining was indeed wrong, and in order to prevent Sima Qu from being angry with her, she had to abandon the car to protect the handsome. She couldn't bear to turn her face away, unwilling to look directly at Sima Dai.

The two servants dragged Sima Daining out of the Buddhist hall, and on the corridor, they collided with Sima Wansheng's master and servant who came from Shanshan.

"Second girl, alright!"

"Three girls, it's okay!"

The servants on both sides each saluted Sima Guansheng and Sima Dai Ningfu.

"Third sister!" Sima Guansheng looked at the angry Sima Daining, opened his mouth to call her first, and looked at the two servants next to him, "What is this doing?" ”

She knows very well that Sima Daining has always been at odds with her, and if she asks Sima Daining, Sima Daining will never say it frankly.

Servant A said: "Back to the second girl, the third girl is in the Buddhist hall with Mother Wen, Zhong Xiaoniang sent the slave woman to send the third girl to the ancestral hall to think." ”

Sima Dai glared at Sima Wansheng with disdain, and said sharply: "What kind of tongue is chewing, why don't you leave quickly, eat and hold on?" ”

Servant A didn't dare to say anything more, bowed his head and said goodbye to Sima Guansheng, and carried Sima Dai Ning towards the ancestral hall.

Sima Guansheng looked at the backs of the three of them in the distance, and looked at the snow falling one after another, and felt pity, she stretched out her slender jade hand outside the corridor, and the snowflakes fell on her hand, turning into water in an instant.

Mother Ling said in a low voice, "Girl, let's go!" The smell of gunpowder in this Buddha hall is strong, so you should be cautious in your words and deeds. ”

"The cold wind is blowing, the weather is cold, there is no charcoal stove in the ancestral hall, how can the third sister stand it? Aunt Su has always cherished her third sister, how could she be willing to suffer such a big crime? ”

"Girl, in the mansion, there has always been a turbulent dark tide, and it is common to suffer a little bit of flesh and skin. The three girls still have their biological mothers to cherish, but pity our girls are weak, and the grievances can only be swallowed in the stomach. ”

Sima Guansheng curled the corners of his mouth slightly, showed a pleased smile, and said softly: "Mom's words are serious, aren't there still Mother Ling, you and grandmother?" All right! It's been too much time to delay, let's get over it quickly! ”

The two of them walked hurriedly in the direction of the Buddha Hall.

Sima Guansheng wore a long blue dress, which was a cheap color, and she was generally a maid and prostitute. Only prostitutes wear it, and people with a little status will never touch clothes of this color. The green silk was simply pulled up, and a silk flower was put on the bun, and there was no extra headdress. Under the influence of Ling's mother, Sima Guansheng has long been accustomed to hiding his edge and trying his best to hide his shameful face, which is also a good self-protection.

When the two came to the door of the Buddhist hall, Ling's mother lifted the curtain and let Sima Guansheng into the house. As soon as Sima Guansheng stepped into the door of the Buddhist hall, he respectfully bowed. Mother Ling followed her movements, echoing behind her.

"Auntie, it's okay!"

"Aunt Su, it's okay!"

"Big sister, it's okay!"

As soon as Sima Guansheng's words fell, Sima Daiyuan walked over with a smile, excitedly wanting to grab Sima Guansheng's hand, but Sima Guansheng subconsciously retracted his hand. Sima Daiyuan's face made her feel a little strange.

"What's wrong?"

Sima Guansheng realized that he was out of shape, and squeezed out an embarrassed smile and said, "No—not much." ”

Sima Daiyuan didn't think much about it, took her hand again and pulled her aside, "Second sister, why are you here?" Aren't you feeling unwell? I'm still thinking about going to visit you when I'm done praying! Is it better now? Is there anything else you feel uncomfortable with? ”

Sima Daiyuan's cold and warm questions made her feel how funny and ridiculous she was, how could such a lively and hearty person become a ruthless and vicious femme fatale, she became more and more convinced that all coincidences were just coincidences, and she really just had a yellow dream.

She didn't feel malice at all from Sima Daiyuan, but was full of intimacy.

At this time, Sima Daiyuan didn't know that her favorite brother Liyue was happy with Sima Guansheng, and she didn't know how much her aunt hated Sima Guansheng's mother and daughter, she regarded Sima Guansheng as a sister from the bottom of her heart, and treated Sima Guansheng sincerely.

The two pairs of jade hands were clasped tightly together, standing behind Zhong Xiaoniang and Su Xiaoniang, whispering.

"Thank you big sister for your concern, Guan Sheng is no longer in trouble."

"Second sister, when the prayer is over, let's go to your yard to build a snowman, okay? It's rare to see such a heavy snowfall, wouldn't it be disappointing if you don't make the best use of it? ”

"The eldest sister and Guan Sheng really figured it out, and Guan Sheng piled one up before he came."

"Really? Third sister, you're not right, you have such an interesting story, and you don't think about me. Hum! I'm angry, I'm not good with you. Sima Daiyuan muttered, don't turn her face, so she looked angry.

"Second sister, don't be angry, it's not good for Guan Sheng, Guan Sheng will compensate you, isn't it? Your prime minister can hold the boat in his belly, is it good to Rao Guansheng once? ”

When Sima Daiyuan heard this, she burst out laughing.

Zhong Xiaoniang didn't want to see Sima Daiyuan treat Sima Guansheng well, but she was very annoyed when she saw that Sima Daiyuan didn't pay attention to her demeanor because of Sima Wansheng's arrival.

She coughed lightly and said, "The holy land of the Buddha Hall is not a place for talking, laughing and playing, so don't shut up yet." ”

Sima Daiyu stuck out her tongue and rolled her eyes at Zhong Xiaoniang's back. Neither of them said a word, and stood up straight and waited quietly.

Sima Daiyuan was wearing a malt yellow long skirt, the placket, sleeves and skirt were embroidered with gold thread Qiu Ju, and two pearls fell at the end of the ribbon of the skirt. On the towering bun, the step shake, silk flowers, silver hairpins, and jade ornaments did not fall. She has the style of a noble lady in this dress.

The hall was crowded with people, but the atmosphere was unusually quiet and depressing.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Lu Xiaoniang's mother led the ten-year-old Sima Daiyu to push the curtain in, followed by Sima Daiyu's maid Bizhu.

Sima Daiyu blessed everyone to salute, as did Mother Lu and Bizhu.

"Aunt Zhong, it's okay!"

"Aunt Su, it's okay!"

"Big sister, second sister, well!"

Sima Guansheng and Sima Daiyuan responded with a smile and nodded slightly.

The young and the old are orderly, there is a difference between respect and inferiority, the younger generation needs to salute when they see the elders, the younger ones need to salute when they see the elders, the younger ones need to salute when they see the grandchildren, and the humble ones need to salute when they see the venerable, which is the most basic etiquette rules.

Zhong Xiaoniang looked behind the three of them, but did not see the figure of the Lu family, and asked, "Where is your aunt?" ”

"A-Niang-" Dai Yu looked dazed, obviously not knowing how to answer.

Mother Lu took Dai Yu's words and said: "Back to Zhong Xiaoniang, my Lu Xiaoniang is a month old, and her mobility is really inconvenient, so she ordered the slave woman to bring the four girls over for her." ”

Zhong Xiaoniang's face did not change, and said to the Taoist priest: "Master, everyone has arrived, let's start!" ”

She didn't say anything on her face, but she was very displeased in her heart.

Everyone knelt on the soft cushion on the ground in front of the desk, Zhong Xiaoniang and Su Xiaoniang knelt in the front row, Sima Wansheng, Sima Daiyuan, and Sima Daiyu knelt in the back row, and the rest of the people knelt on the ground behind them.

"Being pregnant and arrogant, so many of us waited, and the sentence 'it's really inconvenient to move' sent us away one by one. What did I just say...... "Su Xiaoniang was born humble, and she has not received good family education etiquette rules, and she has always spoken only on personal joy, regardless of priority, and she doesn't know what to say and what not to say.

She said this to vent the imbalance in her heart, and she wanted to block Zhong Xiaoniang.
