Wang Xiaoniang's yard is narrow, but it is better than exquisite, a small courtyard, the atrium is planted with three or two peach and apricot pear trees, at this time the peach blossoms have been grateful, and the apricot blossoms and pear blossoms are bright.

Spring is white, the yard is a little bleak, and the scattered pink and white petals in the garden fall on the puddles and grass, casual and a little bleak.

Wang Xiaoniang sat in the room, looking stunned. I think that she was in the prime of her life, regardless of the opposition of her family, she got married, and her life was also beautiful, except for her name, everything else was perfect, and she never thought that it would be thirteen years in the blink of an eye, and the building was empty.

More than thirteen years later, the cardamom years are in early February. At the beginning, her daughter was still a milk doll, and the officials hugged her, overjoyed, and did not treat her coldly because she gave birth to a sister. He said that he only hoped that the child could be safe and beautiful, and that he would be peaceful for a lifetime, so he named Lin Yu'an.

It feels like it's just a nap, and Sister An will be thirteen. The official has been sleeping on the ground, separated by yin and yang, and no one can pick flowers for her and give her thrush from now on.

Lin Yu'an walked into the house and saw that the little lady was facing the round window, and the pear tree outside the round window was brilliant.

After a while, she whispered, "Little lady."

Wang Xiaoniang had long known that her sister An was coming, but she didn't want to break this rare tranquility, so she didn't speak.

Hearing Lin Yu'an speak, she turned around, "Sister An is almost as tall as Xiao Niang now." ”

Lin Yu'an just smiled, she knew that what Xiao Niang was going to say was not this. Wang Xiaoniang walked to the low couch by the window and sat down, and beckoned her to come over.

Wang Xiaoniang stretched out her hand to hold Lin Yu'an's hand, and her voice was soft: "How about going back to Wang's house with my mother?"

Lin Yu'an seemed to have been stabbed, and withdrew his hand, "What did the little lady say, her daughter is a girl from the Lin family, what does it mean to go back to the Wang family." ”

"Silly girl, now that the Lin Mansion can't hold on, sooner or later it will disperse, my mother doesn't want you to be in Nanshuizhuang for the rest of your life, trapped in the love of children like your mother and can't wake up."

Wang Xiaoniang sighed abruptly, took Lin Yu'an's hand again, and said earnestly: "Sister An, in two years, you will be able to pay it back, if you go back to the Wang family, your grandmother will be the most painful for your mother, and she will definitely find a caring family for you when the time comes, but your mother will also have a heart."

Lin Yu'an naturally understood what Xiao Niang wanted to say, and it would be good if she returned to the Wang family to be pleasing, but she was afraid that Xiao Niang's identity would be embarrassing and would cause a lot of ridicule.

Wang Xiaoniang saw that Lin Yu'an seemed to be listening, so she didn't say any more, the drum didn't need a heavy hammer, and she saw the leopard, Sister An was a smart child in ice and snow, and she understood her hard work.

Cui's mother wanted to let the children in the yard sweep the yard, but was stopped by Wang Xiaoniang, "That's it, the spring rain is amorous, watching these idle flowers and grass fall, it's not so lonely and difficult." ”

Cui's mother listened to it and knew that Xiaoniang was missing Master Lin who had gone, she was a couple before her death, but the door was not the right one, Master Lin was in Beijing to catch the exam, and a month before she met Wang Xiaoniang, she had already become a relative by her relatives, which was really a trick on people.

"Girl, now you can think clearly, if you go back to the Wang family, it doesn't hurt the old lady, she has always been hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, but the people next to you are afraid that they will laugh at you......"

Huo's mother didn't finish speaking, Wang Xiaoniang also understood that the Wang family was also a famous family in the capital, and she was forced to live and die at the beginning, and she and Mrs. Wang turned against each other to get such a marriage, but she was afraid that the sisters who married into the high family, as well as the brothers who were officials in the court, would sneer at her.

She didn't know, but what she could. When she insisted on marrying Master Lin as a little lady, she was ready to be ridiculed.

"Mother Huo, there is no need to say much about this, mother, she doesn't blame me, I am satisfied, you said it, those are the people on the side, why should you care about their eyes."

Wang Xiaoniang felt that Master Lin had not failed her all his life, which was enough, which was worthy of her original choice, and she had no regrets.

When Huo's mother heard this, she really didn't say anything more, and just stayed quietly with her.

As soon as Lin Yu'an left Wang Xiaoniang's yard, he met Yunxiang, the maid beside her eldest sister.

Although Lin Yuzhu is a concubine, the Lin Mansion has a thin family foundation, and the dowry of Mrs. Fang is also thin, so life is not as good as Lin Yu'an, who is a concubine.

Yun Xiang saw Lin Yu'an and curtsied, "Second girl, the eldest girl asked the maid to pass the word, saying that the young master and Miss Cousin of the Fang family are here, and let you go over to play together." ”

Young Master and Miss Cousin of the Fang family? Lin Yu'an knew that it was a pair of children of Mrs. Fang's brother-in-law.

In the past, she rarely went to play with them, why would the big sister come to pass her over today, Lin Yu'an smiled, "You talk to the big sister, I'll change my clothes and go." ”

Yun Xiang listened, nodded yes, and turned around.

Lin Mansion is not big, Lin Yuzhu's courtyard is a small courtyard next to the main courtyard, Lin Yuzhu took his own name, called Qingtian Courtyard, at that time Lin Lao Ye was still boasting of simplicity, there is a white style of drawing, Lin Yuzhu is quite proud.

There is a lady Fang and two young ladies in the house, and there should only be one big girl in the other people, of course, not counting the little boy bought by Wang Xiaoniang's own money.

The brothers and sisters of the Fang family sat under the eaves of Qingtian Courtyard, with a chessboard on a cypress table in the middle, and Lin Yuzhu sat on one side, and on the other sat the Fang family lady who was the same age as Lin Yuzhu. The two are fighting on the chessboard.

The door rang softly, and the chess man under the eaves paused, and looked at it with clear eyebrows: "It's the second sister who is here, come and sit quickly."

The young master Fang Zhouyu also looked over, next to the apricot blossoms under the courtyard, the girl's eyebrows were sparse and delicate, dressed in white and plain clothes, petite, slightly thin.

Lin Yu'an walked over calmly, Fang Zhouyu stood aside, and let her go down the eaves. "Sister An, I haven't seen you for a few days, you have lost some weight again, but you didn't care about what you eat?"

Lin Yuzhu was urged by Fang Xianruo, the young lady of the Fang family, to fall into chess, and glared at her coquettishly, "You are a monkey in a hurry, you will definitely lose this game." Saying that her hand fell, Fang Xianruo cried with a sad face, "Cousin can't let me!" ”

Fang Zhou Yuzheng was talking to Lin Yu'an, listening to his sister's words about to play tricks again, he stopped and laughed at her a few words, and Lin Yuzhu beckoned a few people into the house.

"Jiangnan Meiyu, I haven't had free days these days, and yesterday my mother-in-law in the house asked me to hug Mrs. Tang, isn't it ridiculous."

Fang Zhouyu walked to the window kang and sat down, his posture was quite casual, Lin Yu'an was not surprised, this young master had been familiar with the Lin Mansion since he was a child, and he had always been like he was in his own home, and he was not formal.

The Fang family is the maiden family of Mrs. Fang, Fang Zhouyu is slightly older than Lin Yuzhu, and Fang Xianruo is the same age as Lin Yu'an. Originally, when Mrs. Fang married Master Lin, the Fang family was still the old lady in charge, and she had a few family properties, but after all these years, it was not as good as it was at the beginning.

It's a pity that Fang Xianruo has been pretentious since she was a child, and she doesn't look down on a concubine like Lin Yu'an, and now she is even more reluctant to say a word to her, just afraid of losing her face.

Lin Yu'an has always been quiet, but it was only because of Fang Zhouyu's laughter that it was rare to speak for a while. Lin Yuzhu took out some pastries from Chi Meng, who was beside her, and put them on the small pestle on the kang near the window.

Fang Xianruo rushed Fang Zhouyu aside, sat opposite Lin Yuzhu, and took a piece of shortbread, "This is something from the Burning Snow Pavilion, my cousin is really good at choosing." ”

Lin Yu'an has been silent since she was called, and she doesn't sit on the kang, nor does she participate in the conversation, if she stands there without moving, I'm afraid that no one will know that she is standing for a day.

Fang Zhouyu said a few words to Lin Yu'an, and when he saw that she still looked lacking in meaning, he lost his interest, and found a soft stool to sit on and eat the fruit.
