Chapter 148: Brothers and Sisters
Zhangzhu didn't ask Chu Yuanzhen to verify whether he believed her nonsense, it didn't matter if he believed it or not, as long as he could treat Ruolan well.
After a few days of haphazard work, seeing that the New Year was about to come, Du Yunzhao was also very busy, he was busy clearing accounts in several shops, and he was busy entertaining the guys in the shop. Du Wending is also often away from home.
At noon on the nineteenth, Du Wenan returned to Shoufeng with his wife and children. Mrs. Du saw the smiles on the faces of her son and grandson and never stopped.
Seeing that the old lady was tough, Lin smiled and said, "The old lady is getting tougher and tougher, more and more like an old birthday star." ”
The old lady said: "Thanks to Zhu'er for helping to regulate this year, otherwise I don't know what to do." ”
Du Wenan received a letter from home in the middle of the year, which said that his niece came to the house, he looked around but couldn't see the palm beads and asked: "Why can't my niece see me?" ”
The old lady said, "She's very busy and not at home, so see you in the evening." The old lady saw the child in the hand of Yun Sheng's daughter-in-law again, so she stretched out her hand, and Yun Sheng's daughter-in-law Guo Shi hurriedly carried the child into the old lady's arms.
Old Madam Du squinted her eyes and teased the child in front of her with a loving face, but the seven-month-old child did not recognize her life, and immediately giggled when she was teased by the old ancestor.
When the old lady saw the child laughing, her heart became more and more joyful.
It was not until the evening that Zhangzhu returned, and Du Wenan and his wife felt a little sad when they saw Zhangzhu. Du Wenan said: "You are becoming more and more like your mother." Your mother left early, and she couldn't fulfill her filial piety in front of your grandmother, and you made it for her for a few years. ”
Lin Shi took the palm bead's hand and looked at it carefully, and said lovingly: "The family praises you very much, today I saw that it was really extraordinary, are you not used to it in the Du family?" ”
Zhangzhu nodded and said, "I've been here for almost a year, and I've long been used to it." ”
Lin said again: "Good boy, you are tired. The bones of this body look like there are not a few taels of flesh, so they should be mended. It looks good when it is rich. ”
The uncle should do whatever the palm beads say, and the Lin family saw that the child was supple and felt more and more pity in his heart, and pulled the palm beads and said for a while.
"I heard that my eldest cousin is coming back, I don't know when I will be home?"
Du Wenan said: "It's either twenty-seven or twenty-eight, and there is no letter for sure, only that he wants to come back." ”
Zhangzhu didn't say anything after hearing this, and the couple comforted Zhangzhu again, and Lin liked Zhangzhu very much and gave her a lot of things, from clothes to food.
After receiving the reward from the second uncle, he kept a part of the palm beads, and sent someone to give Ruolan some.
The twenty-sixth shop was closed until the end of Shen, and Yun Zhao invited Dr. Liu, Ah Dong and the account office to go to the Ruyi Tavern for dinner, and also called Zhangzhu to go together.
Zhangzhu said: "I won't go, you can eat happily." ”
Zhangzhu went straight to Nianzi Lane, and as soon as she entered the courtyard, she heard Ruolan's pipa. Zhangzhu went to Ruolan's house, Ruolan hugged the pipa and played there alone, and the audience was left with only the little girl's head pattern.
Ruolan played a few short segments intermittently, looked up and saw Zhangzhu, her face was overjoyed, and she hurriedly got up and said, "Miss Fu is here." ”
Zhangzhu sat down, and saw that Ruolan was dressed brightly, although she also wore light makeup at home, she looked very decent.
"Twenty-nine, let's come over again for the New Year, okay? I'm sure I won't be able to get out on the thirtieth day. Zhangzhu was worried that Ruolan was alone.
When Ruolan heard this, she smiled and nodded in agreement: "Okay, but I don't know if the second master will come?" ”
"I can't say anything about this."
Ruolan said busily again: "When the time comes, I will let someone go to invite him." The second master has been back for a few days, but he hasn't shown up, and he doesn't know what he's busy with. ”
"He has inconvenient legs and feet, and his health is not good, so it's strange to come and go."
Ruolan bit her lip lightly when she heard this, and her face was hard to hide her loss.
"Does Sister Fu like to listen to tunes?"
Zhangzhu said: "I love to listen to what you play." ”
Ruolan immediately said: "I'll play a "Yue'er Gao" for Sister Fu, you listen to see what's wrong, last time I played it in front of the second master, the second master also corrected me a few places, I have been practicing this piece for the past few days, I am already very proficient, I really want to play it to him again, but he doesn't come." ”
Ruolan said that she really went to pluck again, but her palm beads couldn't understand the rhythm, and she couldn't point out where she was playing wrong, she just thought it sounded good.
Ruolan smiled and asked, "Sister Fu, how did I play this time?" ”
Zhangzhu hurriedly clapped his hands and praised: "It's very good." ”
Ruolan put down the pipa, took off the tortoiseshell on her finger, and said: "Second master, he seems to understand everything, I only played it once, he can write down the score completely, and he can also point out what is wrong." ”
Zhangzhu said: "I heard that he has been a prodigy since he was a child, and he has an instinct to never forget, and everything can be easily done under his hands. Maybe it's too smart, so it's a little flawed. ”
Ruolan listened quietly, her eyes were stupid, and a smile gradually appeared on her face.
Zhangzhu saw Ruolan's smile, she couldn't help but laugh too, at this moment the dark clouds hanging over her head suddenly dissipated, God did not take away all her happiness, their sisters can be reunited in this way is the greatest gift. At this moment, Zhangzhu forgot her hatred, she only thought that her sister could spend her life smoothly.
Since the palm bead entered the door, Ruolan has been talking to her Chu Yuanzhen, she is grateful to this person who rescued her, and because of Yuanzhen's talent and learning, Ruolan admires it, as long as she mentions this person, her eyes seem to be full of stars.
In order to make Ruolan happy, Zhangzhu said to her: "I'm fine on the twenty-ninth day, I'll come over early in the morning, okay?" ”
Ruolan hurriedly agreed.
Soon it was the twenty-eighth day, and when it was almost dusk, Xiuluan ran to tell Zhangzhu: "Miss Fu, the uncle in the house is back." ”
Zhangzhu heard that her eldest cousin was back, and she hurriedly wanted to meet the only military general of the Du family. Bao Yan put on a cloak for her, turned her palm bead and said to the colorful kite: "I will continue to make the cake when I come back, and none of you should interfere." ”
Cai Kite smiled and agreed: "Don't worry, girl." ”
Bao Yan smiled and said, "Is the girl going to be filial to the old lady?" ”
"Yes, I usually always send medicine over, and I have to make a few small things to please her old man."
Bao Yan said again: "But the girl has done too much, and the old man is only afraid that he will eat until next year." ”
"No more, no more, I'm going to give it away." It's okay at home these days, Zhangzhu wants to make some food for Ruolan, of course, he won't forget his grandmother's share, as well as the three aunts, two sisters, and two sisters-in-law at home, and everything can't be short.
