Seeing her girl suffering, Zhao's mother choked with tears: "No matter how much the girl looks at it, she can't be so angry." As far as the old slave is concerned, it is not the girl's own body that suffers. ”

Zhu Jiu coughed for a while before he eased up, and the whole person leaned softly on Zhao's mother's shoulder and panted breathlessly, and the red and white on that little face were alternate, and it was uncomfortable to look at.

At this time, Chunxing and Zitong came to the main house after collecting their things, and the two stood in the main house.

Their legs seemed to be pinned to the ground and they didn't move, just hanging their heads.

Mother Zhao looked at their thoughts and scolded angrily: "These cheap hooves, the master is almost out of breath, you are only thinking about that little reward, don't you wait for a while, the girl can still worry about you?" ”

Chunxing and Zitong didn't speak, staring at their own uppers and listening.

This Zhu Jiu slowed down and looked at the two of them: "Just now I saw that Zhutangyuan sent a snack from Yimenfang, and Mother Zhao will reward the two of them for a while; Chunlin was sick for a few days, and she was also rewarded with a pump. In addition, let the medical hall prescribe two more pairs of medicines every day for Chunlin to eat. ”

Mother Zhao listened to the girl's soft-heartedness and rewarded it like this, and glared at Chunxing fiercely: "Girl, the girl hasn't tasted this thing yet, how can she reward these two cheap hooves." ”

If Chunlin can't say that he should be rewarded, he is not attentive enough to serve the master, but it is much stronger than this Chunxing.

Mother Zhao hated Chunxing's sharp eyes, which were even more powerful than the tailor's scissors.

"Mother, as I said, I'm tired." Hearing this, Zhao's mother immediately stopped her and helped her lie down.

The bad girl suffers a lot, she is now twelve years old, how can she not understand.

Then he answered the girl's words and rewarded them all.

....

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the Winter Sun Banquet again.

The Zhujia Winter Sun Banquet is set on the nineteenth day of the lunar month every year, and this day is also the busiest day of the New Year's Festival.

In Jinzhou and even in the apocalypse, the word Zhu family represents prosperity and wealth. In the words of ordinary people, the emperor's grace of the Zhu family is like falling from the sky one after another.

Back then, the old lady followed the Emperor of the Apocalypse to lay down this piece of heaven during his lifetime, so he was the founder of the Apocalypse.

Although it is said that the old lady passed away early, she also left this merit and glory for future generations to enjoy.

The two sons under the old lady's knees are famous generals, and they are even more difficult to pursue after their deaths.

Now, to the third generation of the Zhu family, there are a total of fifteen lords in the four courtyards of the southeast, northwest and northwest, and more than half of them are officials in the court.

The Zhu family is not only an official, but also a businessman.

The waterway and the business on the ground all have the business of the Zhu family.

Nowadays, the Zhu family, as the first prestigious family in Jinzhou, is naturally famous for the annual Winter Sun Banquet, and it has also become an opportunity for those who want to climb the door of the Zhu family.

Not to mention marrying the daughters of the Zhu family, how about marrying the sons of the Zhu family, it is to marry the concubines who came out of the mothers of the Zhu family, and that is also the door to the court to open up wealth and make water.

Therefore, the people who came to the banquet today did not have a thousand households, but more than a hundred.

The Winter Sun Banquet is different from the banquet on weekdays, today is the day when the children and girls of the family recognize their relatives after they are over 10 years old, and they are 14 years old.

On weekdays, the banquet is just for the ladies of each family to walk around the Zhu Mansion, and today it is the lords of the gates who bring their families to visit.

This will be a lively house, and I can hear the bustling chatter and laughter outside, and the south courtyard seems to be silent and withered.

Ten days and a half after Laba, I wish the nine bodies a little better.

But the person is still emaciated, and sometimes he coughs incessantly.

People say that after three years of illness, Zhu Jiu's body was as thin as a bamboo pole, and he couldn't even hang the cloak sent by Zhu Tangyuan before.

On the side of the banquet hall, the second lady who was feasting in the south courtyard looked at it for a while, but she didn't see Zhu Jiu in the third room, so she asked Lin's mother to ask.

Mother Lin listened and replied: "The old slave asked Nan's mother over there in the third room, and said that she wished Miss Jiu that she was unwell and should not move around. ”

After hearing this, the second lady said strangely: "Mother Nan can't figure it out, why is Mother Lin confused, why don't you hurry up and go to the side courtyard to inform her." ”

Although she didn't want to care about these concubines, after all, they were all people in the door, and the huge South Courtyard couldn't make mistakes, and when the time came, it would be indispensable to teach the ancestors.

"Ambiguous, the old slave will send someone over for a trip." Mother Lin didn't want her wife to worry, the third lady in the door had a mouth like a knife on weekdays, and she poked people very when she spoke.

This time, Mother Lin sent someone to the side hospital, and Mother Zhao waited early.

However, I didn't wait for the people on the hostess's side to inform me, and my own girl was going to the Winter Sun Banquet for the first time, and she should have had to go last year, but she was so weak that she didn't catch up with the luck.

At the moment, after waiting for a long time, she didn't see anyone coming, and Zhao's mother was forbearing.

I'm afraid that I offended Nan's mother last time because of the delivery of things in the Zhutang Courtyard, and now I won't send anyone to the banquet hall.

Zhu Jiu sat in the house, holding a small biography in his hand, and watched Zhao's mother come into the house, looking at her face, he knew what to do: "Mom, don't be anxious, the Winter Sun Banquet will start for a whole day." ”

"How can the old slave not be anxious, I'm afraid that the girl won't be able to get out of this door like last year." Mother Zhao said and stretched her neck outside the door to look, she didn't see the main mother sending someone for a long time, so she hurriedly stomped her feet for a while.

If you don't recognize your relatives, how can you be good in the future?

This recognition of relatives is to recognize a maternal father.

If you recognize it, your life in the house will naturally get better in the future, how can a girl and a boy miss this doorway.

But if you don't even have a relative, you will have to go through that side door when you get married in the future.

Just when Zhao's mother was anxious, the person sent by Mother Lin came, it was the cleaning maid who passed the message back in the second door, called Lotus.

Lotus trotted over, gasped and blushed, and entered the house to respectfully speak: "Girl, the second lady sent a slave to inform the girl to go to the banquet hall, it's not too early, the girl should go quickly." ”

When Zhao's mother heard this, she immediately said happily: "I'm tired of you girl running away, but I can make you run in a hurry." This is the girl's reward, take it to tea. As he spoke, he stuffed a dime of silver into Lotus's hand.

Lotus looked at it and accepted it happily: "Thank you girl, the slave is still busy, so I'll go first." ”

Seeing that the people were leaving, Zhao's mother hurriedly brought a cloak and put it on her girl, looking so anxious: "Girl, let's hurry over!" ”

Zhao's mother was happy, but she didn't let go of the small pass in her girl's hand, so she just heard her say: "Don't worry." ”

It's not early in the morning, and the person she wants to recognize only arrives at noon, so it's better to be in a hurry than to be in a hurry.

She was not in a hurry, but Mother Zhao was anxious when she heard this.

Seeing that this girl didn't move, she wiped her tears anxiously: "The girl has to plan for herself, she can't follow the slow nature of the deceased aunt, the girl doesn't plan for herself, the old slave can't say it." In the future, can you still meet the old slave and serve with such heart and lungs? ”

"Mother Zhao...."Zhu Jiu saw her like this, his eyes were full of helplessness, so he had to respond: "Mother Zhao, don't be angry, I will respond." ”

Seeing that the girl listened to the persuasion, she became happy again after a while.

Zhu Jiu shook his head secretly, and then walked out the door.

It still hurts under the soles of the feet, and it's all pinpricks.

For each step she took, she took a point.

Now she can't take the North Courtyard, there are still a few years to go, there will always be a way.
