Li Yao thought that under the guidance of that day, the two of them could become real good sisters, but since Linglong came back, in front of Linglong, she still avoided herself intentionally or unintentionally, and only by avoiding Linglong's sight would she say a few more words to herself.

She doesn't know why Linglong hates herself so much, she is cautious in her words and deeds, and never steals the limelight, but she doesn't care, so she maintains the state that the well water does not interfere with the river water.

Today, the little maid Yuncui is holding on to the door frame in a daze, she has become more and more discouraged recently, mainly because the young lady she serves never asks her to do this and that on weekdays, she is idle every day and has nothing to do, and she follows Li Yao for food and clothing, although the maids in other yards are very envious of her, but she is still a little confused.

She just turned 15 this year, is an orphan, was a child daughter-in-law of a family, and then the family suffered, she was almost sold to the kiln, fortunately was saved by Ma Fugui, and later sent to Li Yao's side, she felt that this life was given by others, so she worked diligently and worked hard, but Li Yao always refused to let her serve, and she still took money every month, and felt very unhappy.

She felt that maybe this master didn't like herself, she had been entangled for a long time, and if she continued like this, she was afraid that she would go crazy, Li Yao was a reasonable person, and she would never punish her for saying the wrong thing, so she finally cautiously said to Li Yao, who was teasing the dog, "Miss, do you not like Yuncui, or do you think Yuncui is not good at serving?" ”

She was teasing a snow-white Jingba in her hand, giving it a simple name, called Xiaobai, raised by the second aunt's house, very cute, she was having fun, listening to Yun Cui suddenly say such a sentence, she was a little surprised, stood up, looked at Yun Cui's slightly red eyes, and said, "Why do you think so?" ”

"Because Miss, you never let Yuncui wait." She said aggrievedly.

Li Yao sighed: "I don't know if Uncle Ma has told you about me, I am also a child of a poor family, it's good not to serve others, how can I stand being served by others, besides, I have always treated you as a sister, no one is born to serve others, you need to change your thinking!" Hearing that Li Yao regarded herself as a sister, Yun Cui almost couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes, and burst into laughter: "Miss, you are so good!" ”

The two squatted and played with the dog together, and after playing for a while, Li Yao said: "Since you always feel that you are idle, accompany me to pick loquat for a while." ”

The two loquat trees planted in her yard bear fruit in the first year of this year, and they are finally ripe after looking forward to half a month.

I picked some good ones and sent some to the big lady's house first, and then took the rest to the kitchen to ensure that everyone could taste the fresh.

Out of selfishness, I also kept some, called Yuncui after dinner, and went to Lingli's yard together.

Her mother was eating, and the weather had obviously improved a lot and she was able to get out of bed.

"The three girls are here, sit down." Mrs. Fifth enthusiastically pulled out her chair and told her to sit down.

She asked Yun Cui to bring the loquat to the table and said, "Fifth aunt, loquat clears the lungs and relieves cough, I specially left some for you." ”

"The third girl has a heart, and Lingli also brought me a few today, and I really feel a lot more comfortable after eating it."

Ling Li raised her head and whispered to Li Yao, "Thank you, third sister." ”

The fifth wife also likes Li Yao very much, and wants them to make friends more, seeing that Linglong is about to get married, she has no heart for this girl, and has been pressed by Linglong, let alone her, her sister-in-law, the fourth wife, has suppressed herself by virtue of her family background.

Although Li Yao has no backing, she is a very sensible and sensible person, and she is smart, so she will not suffer a loss if she gives more guidance to Ling Li in the future.

Then he joked: "Lingli said to me last time that she wanted to learn literacy from you, and I always thought that it was not necessarily useful for girls to read so many books, but I couldn't read all the newspapers." ”

When Li Yao heard this, he said: "Taotao is also going to the school now, I still have a lot of books over there, and I also have time, the fifth sister can go to me when she is free." ”

Lingli understood her mother's thoughts, nodded, and replied, "Okay." ”

The fifth lady drank the last mouthful of soup, wiped her mouth, got up to go back to the house to lie down, and said to Ling Li behind her: "Pour a cup of tea for your third sister, you talk slowly, I'll go and rest first." ”

"Fifth aunt walk slowly, don't forget to eat loquat!"

After the fifth lady left, the maid cleaned up the table, Lingli poured her a cup of tea with her own hands, the room was a little quiet, Yuncui stood aside and stared at a plate of loquat swallowing saliva.

Li Yao suddenly spoke: "Tomorrow I will ask Yuncui to send you two books." ”

"Actually, I also know some words, when I was a child, Mr. Private School at home taught for a while, and Linglong and I both went to attend classes, but unfortunately she couldn't listen, and always pulled me out to play."

"That's better, you look at the book first, look for me if you don't know it, I'll send you some after I'm done, I don't have anything anywhere, it's more books."

The two looked at each other and smiled, chatted for a while, and as the night gradually sank, Li Yao got up and went back to the yard, and when she walked to the door, she happened to meet Linglong.

She was a little surprised that Linglong came here so late, but she still smiled and said hello: "Fourth sister, good evening." ”

Linglong was also stunned when she saw her, her face was vaguely displeased, and she replied bluntly: "Third sister, good evening." ”

Lingli just wanted to peel a loquat to eat, and when she saw Linglong running in angrily, she asked, "Fifth sister, why is the third sister here?" ”

She pointed to the loquat on the table and replied, "Send loquat to my mother." ”

Linglong thought about it, sat down, peeled the loquat and ate, and said while eating: "Shao Hua called me just now, explaining that he asked us to go horseback riding and archery, and said that he must bring you. ”

Ling Li suddenly felt a panic in her heart, and hurriedly said, "I'm not going!" ”

"If you don't go, next time he will change his way and call you out, you can't keep refusing, don't be afraid, if he dares to do something to you tomorrow, I will let my uncle cut off his hand."

"No, no, no, I'm not going!" Lingli's head shook into a rattle.

In fact, when she just entered the door and saw Li Yao, she had a plan, she knew Wu Jiandong, she knew that she loved one when she saw one, if he fell in love with Li Yao, as soon as the eldest lady married her off, she would be out of sight and out of mind.

She said: "But don't think too much, he also named the third sister to go together, maybe the person he likes is the third sister, let's just let her be in the limelight alone tomorrow?" ”

Wu Jiandong is a person with bad conduct, no matter who she looks at, it is not a good thing, besides, the third sister takes such good care of herself, and she really can't do the things that make people stumble behind her back, so she timidly replied: "Isn't this okay?" ”

"What's good or not, it's not for us to decide, Zichuan will also go, you can think for yourself if you go!"

As soon as she heard Lin Zichuan's name, Ling Li's eyes suddenly lit up: "Really? ”

"What are you lying about!"

"Okay, I'll go tomorrow!"

Seeing that she finally responded, she also breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "You tell the third sister by the way, I forgot to say it." Then he hurried away.

Her brain was too flexible, Shao Hua didn't say that Lin Zichuan would go at all, let alone name Li Yao to go with her, in order to fulfill this lie, she had to quickly call Shao Hua again and ask him to call Lin Zichuan too.

On the second day, after lunch, Shao Hua's car stopped at the door, because Lingli specially called her to go, Li Yao did not refuse, besides, riding a horse is such a fun thing, her father once taught her, she even rode a horse to hunt, she thought it was very interesting, deliberately turned out the previous overalls from the box, combed her hair to the back of her head, tied in a bun, neat, very heroic.

As they came out together, they looked a little out of place.

Lingli poked her eyes into the car but didn't see Lin Zichuan, she was a little disappointed, and asked, "Didn't you say that Brother Zichuan would also come, what about others?" ”

"Shao Hua came to pick us up, and they went over first." Exquisite back.

In fact, she doesn't know if Lin Zichuan will come or not, if she doesn't arrive for a while, she can only tell her that he can't come because of something.

Soon arrived at the destination, and saw Lin Zichuan and Wu Jiandong from a distance, Lingli was a little happy, the car stopped steadily, and she immediately ran to the front.

Wu Jiandong thought that she was happy to see herself and was proud, but she didn't expect that when someone arrived, she came to Lin Zichuan, and she was a little disappointed.

Pretend to be calm and go to greet the others.

The one wearing a dress should be Linglong, and the girl in a straight overalls next to her should be Li Yao, the third lady of the Li family.

He stared at her face for a few seconds, thinking that she was very interesting, the type he had never been exposed to, Li Yao noticed that someone was staring at him, and raised his eyes to meet his, his gaze was cold, with a slight hint of provocation.

Wu Jiandong was really stunned for a moment, and then looked away, he never took risks, this kind of girl, he felt that it was not something that ordinary people could control.

When the people arrived, Shao Hua said: "There are many people today, and the swords and arrows have no eyes, so be careful for a while." ”
