Chapter X
Mingshu just lowered her eyes, her expression was wooden, and when she heard this, she said coldly: "Who is not put in the palm of his hand by his parents." ”
This sentence was old-fashioned, and the mother-in-law glanced at Mingshu strangely, and when she saw the girl's small and clean appearance, she felt that she was just learning her tongue, and continued: "The old lady was reluctant to marry the fourth lady to the family of the nobles in the capital, but now that this incident has happened, it is inevitable that she will not be angry. ”
I didn't want to get married at the beginning, but this incident happened again...... Mingshu felt a little strange in her heart, but she couldn't say it.
Although the rules of the Li family are not as good as those of the scholarly family in the capital, they are already a rare merchant family. If someone hadn't deliberately supported this mother-in-law, she would never have come to her front to chew these words.
It's about what the eldest aunt meant, Mingshu thought, nodded obediently, and said, "I can save it." ”
Although she was asked to change her skirt, in fact, she let Mingshu go back to rest for the rest of the day.
bumped into a little girl in red on the road, Mingshu guessed that it was probably one of her cousins, but the other party just glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, and walked away quickly, and the two did not say hello.
Mingshu didn't take it to heart, and still went back to pick Hongxuan. As soon as the quilt was covered, I slept without knowing anything, and I woke up as if everything was fine.
In the most unsatisfactory period of her previous life, she was very sleepy and dazed almost every day.
When she woke up, it was still mid-afternoon, and Mingshu planned to sleep for a while, but the little maid walked in and whispered: "Cousin girl, San Langjun has come to see you, and I have been waiting outside for a while." ”
She was dizzy for a while, and finally realized that it was Cousin Wen who she had seen last time.
Mingshu put on her clothes before going out to see Li Xiuwen, the half-grown boy has a very good personality, and when he saw Mingshu, he gave Mingshu a pair of white rabbits made of soft pottery, fat and cute.
"My father told me that my aunt often said that Ling Ling was the most cute and cute and liked rabbits. There are no rabbits at home, so I'll pinch a pair for you to play with. ”
Mingshu didn't understand that he would pinch the little rabbit for her, so she took the little rabbit carefully, thanked him, and still looked at him suspiciously.
Li Xiuwen said with a smile: "Ling Ling doesn't need to be polite," he really thinks that the delicate and soft little girl is too alienated from him, how to say that he is also more gentle and amiable than Gu Wulang's coffin face. He also said: "Grandmother loves my aunt very much, and her temper is inevitably bad at this time." Ling Ling should not be sad. ”
It turned out to be to comfort her. Mingshu is not really only seven years old, so she can naturally understand this anger. What's more, the Li family, like her mother, is her relative, if she can, she hopes that she will not turn against her grandfather Li family in this life.
After her parents and grandmother left in her previous life, she was taken to be raised by the second room, but in fact, she was helpless and bullied by the second room. Later, when he married into the Lin family, he had no father and brother to rely on, and he suffered from his aunt's meanness.
Helpless, he didn't dare to resist, and he was cowardly all his life, so he was bullied and tortured for a lifetime.
"Thank you, Cousin Wen." Mingshu said with a smile on her face, and a little tear burst into her eyes. Even though her grandmother still hates her, her eldest aunt and cousin Wen have family ties with her.
She won't be alone in the dark.
Li Xiuwen was almost stunned, he didn't understand why the clean and clean little girl showed an almost grateful look. Then he smiled and said, "Ling Lingke is studying?" If these days are boring, you can read with the sisters. ”
He originally thought that Mingshu would not agree, in the end, it was Miss Hou Menyan, and it was said that she was extremely loved by the old lady, but who knew that the little girl happily agreed.
Mingshu pinched the hem of her skirt, suppressed the churning of her heart, and asked, "I wonder what my cousins have learned?" “
"is almost inseparable from you, and I also started to learn "Thousand Words" not long ago."
Mingshu smiled slightly, "I'm also about to learn "Urgent Chapter", and it's just right to learn "Thousand Character Text" with my sisters." "Both are books at the same level and are used for literacy.
Seven-year-old children have already learned the thousand-character text is considered to be a little early enlightenment, and Mingshu is actually enlightened earlier, four and a half years old has begun to recognize words, this year Chunyuan is going to start learning "University".
But Mingshu knows her fate in the future.
Why stand on a high place and go down? It hurts.
The two talked for a while, and Li Xiuwen felt that Mingshu was fine, so he left Picking Hongxuan.
He went straight to his father's study, saluted respectfully to the person sitting in front of the desk, and called "Father." The person sitting in front of the desk put down the scroll in his hand, and a still kind smile appeared on his stern face: "How?" “
Li Xiuwen truthfully told what he and Mingshu said, hesitated for a while, and said: "Father, I think Ling Ling is a good person, but he is softer. “
Li Jiabo nodded, stood up and took a few steps before saying, "It's good not to be careful." “
Li Xiuwen was originally going to retreat, but when he thought of the little girl's well-behaved appearance, he suddenly felt a little pity for her, and subconsciously said more, "Father, you also think that it was because of Ling Ling that your aunt was ......"
Li Jiabai's originally unsightly face was ugly, but he didn't lose his temper with his son, but his tone was lower, "Human life is a major event, the world is impermanent, and these naturally can't be blamed on a little girl." After a slight pause, "I can't help but blame Mingshu for this, people are like this." "What's more, the old lady who regards Ah Lan as an eyeball.
Li Xiuwen had no way to ask anything else, but just imagined how sad he would be if this happened to him. couldn't help but sigh for Mingshu.
Mingshu sat in the courtyard of the flowers and trees, looking up at the bright moon in the sky, and couldn't help but sigh.
The little maid came over with a bowl of almond dew and cautiously asked Mingshu if she wanted to use it. On the other hand, he said with some grievances: "It's windy here, so the cousin girl should go in and sit." If you blow the disease, your slave and maidservant will be punished. “
In the past few days, some people have rumored that Mingshu is a broom star who killed his parents, who knows if he will harm others.
Mingshu didn't know this, but she could hear the dissatisfaction in the maid's words. After thinking about it, he said, "Then bring the cloak, naturally you won't be sick." “
The smile on the corner of the maid's lips stiffened, and she checked in in a hurry, where did she get Hongxuan's cloak from? Besides, it's clearly a refusal to go in.
Mingshu smiled and saw the maid froze there, her mood finally improved, and continued: "I want to go and see my fifth brother, you go and get me a lantern, and bring the water chestnut cake that was given to me from the kitchen in the afternoon." “
"Yes." The maid bent her knees and retreated, her movements obedient.
Mingshu sat on the recliner, tilted her head and pulled a flower branch into her hand to play, winking at the bright moon in the sky. There is a night breeze blowing, it is indeed a slight spring cold, but mixed with the fragrance of flowers in the courtyard, very pleasant.
