This little girl is not different from the women he has seen before, when she first met, she saw that she had the same amazement in her eyes as ordinary women, but no more, she didn't have it, and she wouldn't stick to herself, when she gave her that priceless jade pendant, although she refused, she couldn't push it off, she only accepted it quickly, and she didn't see how much she liked it. When she whispered that sentence in her ear on the deck, she didn't seem to hear the ambiguity in her tone, and she cleverly responded to the sentence that she had never seen the play.

Is it too young to understand? Or is it too wise?

Chai Shijiu only knew that he was interested in a girl for the first time in his life, and for some reason, he felt that there was something indescribable and different from ordinary people in this girl, and he was attracted to him for no reason, and there was a smart light in her eyes, which could only be discovered by the same kind.

pursed his lips, withdrew his gaze from Banniang, and sent Mrs. Song off the boat. Shiro happened to be sitting in the carriage and hurried over.

I took my luggage and got into the carriage, because the old house of the Zeng family in Linchuan was not far from the water, and it was only half an hour away.

Because Linchuan City is a state city, it is much larger than Nanfeng, and the mansions of large households in the city can also be seen everywhere. When they arrived at the door of their house, it was already dark, and although it was not yet dark, lanterns were hung in front of each house. Zeng's mansion in Linchuan is more than half smaller than the old mansion in Nanfeng City, and the words "Autumn Rain Master" are hung on the door of the mansion with gold on a black background.

The carriage stopped, Shiro Goro got out of the carriage first, helped Zeng Budo get out of the car, and took Banniang down, Chai Nineteen jumped out of the car, and the coachman saw that everyone was getting off, so he got into the carriage to carry his luggage. After the luggage was unloaded, Gorou went to knock on the door, and Zeng Bu undoubtedly opened his mouth to invite: "Nineteen Lang, do you live in the city to study, or do you have another mansion?" ”

"My little nephew lives in the state school."

Zeng Budo smiled and said: "Then I'm not in a hurry to go back, it's better to stay in our house tonight, and go to school with Shiro Goro tomorrow." ”

Chai 19 said: "Don't bother my uncle and the two brothers, because I should have gone back yesterday, thinking that my little girl should be in a hurry, go back to report safety first, and wait for a day when there is a holiday in school, and then come to visit my uncle and the old lady in the house." This time I went to Nanfeng, I originally planned to visit my uncle and Mr. Zigu, but because I was delayed because of something and was in a hurry to return to Linchuan, I didn't make the trip, but I didn't want to meet my uncle on the road, and it was also the luck of the little nephew. After traveling all the way, I think my uncle should be tired, and the little nephew won't bother my uncle tonight. ”

As he spoke, he was about to leave.

Shiro went to pay the fare, but Chai Shijiu stopped him: "Brother Zijin is slapping me in the face, and the fare will be paid by the younger brother, and it is only one or two hundred dollars." In the past two days, I have been eating and drinking with my uncle and brother, so that my younger brother can repay some love. ”

Wulang no longer insisted, Chai Nineteen gave Zeng Budo a farewell salute, got into the carriage, and seemed to suddenly remember, and smiled at Banniang: "Eighth sister, in the past few days, I sent someone to send the books you want to read, the food in the school is really unpalatable, and I bother you to make some food and ask the person I sent to bring it back to me, okay?" ”

Banniang thought about her appearance on the deck, which was very different from the shape of a humble gentleman in front of people now, plus Gorou said his identity, so he didn't want to say more to him, but at this time, his father and brother were there, but it was not good not to answer, so he nodded with a light smile.

Chai Nineteen then let the coachman drive.

As soon as he left, the door of Zeng's house also opened.

The old servant who opened the door was surprised and delighted when he saw Zeng Budoubt, and hurriedly said: "The villain has seen the master, why is the master here?" This, the villain asked people to inform the old lady. If the old lady knew that she was coming, she would not know how happy she would be. ”

While talking, he called his old wife to come and went to the old lady in the second courtyard to reply.

This manservant's surname is Huang, he was originally the nephew of Huang Bo in Nanfeng Zeng's mansion, and his mother-in-law is now serving in front of his grandmother Mrs. Huang in Linchuan, responsible for guarding the courtyard, and his wife is responsible for washing the oars.

Zeng Budo asked: "Lao Huang, is the old lady in good health?" ”

Lao Huang helped Shiro Goro take the luggage and guide the way, and said: "If you go back to the master, the old lady occasionally felt the wind and cold some time ago, and now she is fine, don't worry about the master." ”

The group entered the main room of the second courtyard, and the old lady listened to the report and sat there, accompanied by Liuniang.

Lao Huang went to settle his luggage, and once he led two sons and one daughter, and saluted the old lady first: "I heard Shiro and Goro say that your mother is unwell, and you are very worried, so I came to see my mother, my mother is sick, why don't you let someone go to talk to her son?" Isn't it that the son is unfilial? ”

"When you're old, it's normal to have some minor problems, how can you work hard again and again? Isn't that good? I've been walking all the way, and I'm tired, so sit down and talk. Huang smiled and looked at Banniang again, "Eighth sister, how well is your body?" Now that I see that there is some meat on this little face, sit down next to my grandmother. ”

Banniang smiled and stepped forward to salute, leaned on Huang's side and sat down, winked at Liuniang mischievously, Liuniang really wanted to laugh when she saw it, and then leaned on the old grandmother and laughed crisply: "Grandmother rest assured, Banniang is in good health now, and I won't get sick anymore to worry about my grandmother and my father and my brothers and sisters, this time my father said that he wanted to see my grandmother, and Banniang also missed my grandmother and Liu Niangniang, so my father brought me here." Grandmother, I can cook now, my father, my mother and my sisters-in-law all praised me for doing well, and my father said that my grandmother felt fragrant when she ate the food I cooked, and she could eat more, so she brought me here. ”

"You all have filial piety." When Huang saw his son and grandchildren, and listened to this intimate and intimate filial piety words, how could he be unhappy, so he took Banniang into his arms, "Our little eighth sister has also grown into a sensible eldest daughter." ”

When the family met, they naturally liked it very much, Huang asked about Zhu's pregnancy, and a few small readings, Zeng did not doubt accompany his mother to talk, and Liu Niang also liked it when she saw Ba Niang, and the two little sisters sat on the side and chattered in a low voice.

Liuniang is probably because she has lived with her grandmother since she was a child, she has a very good idea about everything, her personality is cool, and she has to be strong, which is different from Qi Niang's gentleness and gentleness. The two sisters laughed for a while, and heard that Banniang also brought her a gift made by Qi Niang herself, and Liu Niang was also very happy, saying that she was at home these days, and she also made a pair of shoes for Qi Niang and Banniang, and went back to let Banniang try it.

Liu Niang's needlework is excellent, Banniang thought about the New Year's Day and New Year's Day, the pair of shoes that Liu Niang made for her, from the perspective of her previous life, straight like a work of art, I was not willing to wear it there, this time I heard that there was a new one, and I was very happy.

As soon as she flipped through the narrative, Mrs. Huang had already come over and replied: "Old lady, master, dinner is ready?" Right here? ”

The old lady let the main hall of the main house, the family sat and had dinner, and talked for a while, Huang was old and couldn't sit for a long time, so she sent her back to the room in person, and Liu Niang and Banniang served her to sleep together, and then went back to the hall, and because she didn't know that her father and two brothers were back beforehand, the brothers' house was permanent, so don't care, Liu Niang let Banniang go to her house to rest for a while, and she went to clean up the bed for her father.

Banniang also begged to go together, and when it was cleaned up, Mrs. Huang sent a lot of things to wash up, and the two sisters went back to Liuniang's boudoir.

After cleaning up and going to bed, Liu Niang pinched Banniang's slightly fleshy little face: "Ghost girl, I'll do it today, and I'll clean up my room cubicle for you tomorrow to live, this time I'll live here for a few more days, I'm very bored by myself on weekdays, just when you came, I still have a companion, by the way, my mother's body is okay?" ”

"Okay, very." Banniang smiled, "Sister doesn't have to clean up, I'll just sleep in the same bed with my sister." That's right," Banniang said while getting out of bed, taking the play made by Qi Niang, and dangling it in front of Liu Niang, "Sister, isn't this cute?" I specially painted it, and asked the seventh sister to make it for you. ”

What girl can say no to cute cloth toys? Liuniang was very happy to see it, looked carefully for a long time, couldn't put it down, and remembered the embroidered shoes she made, and took it to Banniang to try, but it was a pair of snow blue bottom embroidered with bright green lotus leaves and red hibiscus pattern, bright and beautiful, just suitable for a girl like her to match the color.

I tried just one kick, and it matched the primrose-colored skirt she wore during the day, as fresh as the tender green of spring. Banniang was overjoyed. I put it on my feet and was reluctant to take it off. Standing on the bed and pacing left and right, Liuniang who looked at it smiled: "Xiaoba, you can stop, I have done a lot for you in the past, and I haven't seen you like it so much, I really like it, my sister has to make two more pairs." ”

Banniang smiled, and then sat down.

The two hugged the thin quilt and talked about the situation at home, Liuniang heard that the situation at home was improving, and the brothers could go to Beijing to catch the exam in the autumn, and they were expected to enter the Shi next year, so they felt that there was nothing more happy for her, and it was not until late at night that the two of them fell asleep.

As soon as it was dawn the next day, Gorou and Shiro went to the state school. Banniang got up and found that Liuniang was not in the house for a long time, and when she washed up and went out, she found that the two brothers had gone back to school.

Seeing that Banniang was late, the old lady Huang also said: "This girl, she also got up so early, why don't you sleep more?" Grandmother is old, this sleep is shallow, only get up early, and the six girls don't sleep well with me every day, don't compare with your six sisters. ”

Banniang Yuan slept late last night, got up late, and was embarrassed, but after listening to her grandmother's words, she got tired of it, and laughed according to Huang's family: "Grandmother not only scolded me for being lazy, but also coaxed me to be lazy and get up late, and my granddaughter knew that my grandmother loved me the most." ”

Huang saw that this little granddaughter was more lively and cheerful than before last night, and the old people liked to be lively, and when they saw that she was tired of herself, she felt a little more happy in her heart, and only said: "Look at this girl, she is used to making people hurt, so let's sit and eat." ”

Banniang stood up and helped Liulang set up the dishes and chopsticks.

After a few grandparents and grandchildren ate, Banniang accompanied Liuniang to the kitchen to clean up, and was driven out by Huang Pozi: "I will be in the kitchen, Banniang just came, how can it be called a thing, Liuniang, you accompany Banniang to the house to play." Then he asked Liuniang, "The master is here today, what kind of dishes will you prepare at noon?" I said I'd go to the vegetable market to buy it. ”
