Song Zhi did not buy a new room for Ru'er, there was a vacant room on the side of the first house, which was separated by a locked door, Song Zhi asked his subordinates to open the door, and the two rooms became a very spacious room, so that the maids and women could take care of them together.

"Mother Jin, if Song Xiaogongzi wants to eat something and use something, you just have to come to me, if you can't find me, you just have to find someone to tell you to go down." Tea Yun led Jin's mother to live in a warm pavilion behind the Confucian house, although the warm pavilion is not big, but it has everything.

"Thank you, girl." Mother Jin nodded again and again, and couldn't help but secretly say that the maids in this palace are more affectionate than the maids in Cui's mansion.

The day before yesterday, Xie led Ru'er to Cui's Mansion to stay for a few days, and Mother Jin also followed, although it was also delicious and delicious to treat their master and servant, but Mother Jin always felt that the intimacy of those subordinates revealed a sense of alienation.

I still remember that at lunchtime, she ordered a dish of matsutake oil rice for Ru'er and brought a small bowl, although it was enough to add other meals to Ru'er, but how could there be such hospitality? In the past, if Ru'er wanted to eat a snack, he often set a table, but he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to eat it! This time it became so stingy, Mother Jin was really a little confused.

Seriously, Mother Jin and Ru'er didn't receive any poor treatment in Cui's house, and the Xie family wanted to see Ru'er every day, and it took a lot of tea and snacks, but the reward given to Mother Jin was saved. Mother Jin is also a person from the Cui family, and she has served in front of the Xie family before, but she doesn't mind this half-time reward, but she just feels a little strange, could it be that the Cui family has gone wrong in terms of money recently?

This kind of secret thing is difficult for others to know, but Jin's mother still listened to a few mouthy mothers-in-law chewing the root of her tongue when she got up at night, saying that Cui Ergongzi was set a trap and had a lot of money empty, and Xie and Cui Dagongzi both made up a lot for him, saying that they hadn't plugged the hole yet!

Mother Jin heard this, rotted in her stomach, and secretly asked someone to send a message to Song Ling, and Song Ling found a reason to take Ru'er back to Song Mansion. Later, Song Ling carefully asked Jin's mother why she was in such a hurry to come back, and Jin's mother also told the truth.

Although Song Ling didn't say anything at the moment, she went to Cui's house the next day, and I don't know if she went to help.

She thought about it for a while, was swept away by a slightly cold wind, came back to her senses, and hurriedly told the little maid to prepare a small gown to block the wind for Ru'er earlier, and wait at the door of the main house.

Cha Yun settled Cui's mother and went back to the main house to resume her life. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Cha Zhi standing by the door, and when she saw Cha Yun coming, she hurriedly said: "Sister Cha Yun, Mrs. took the princess and Song Xiaogongzi to paint, don't let us bother." ”

Cha Yun glanced at Cha Zhi, nodded perfunctorily, and said, "Then if Mrs. asks, you will say that Mother Jin has already been settled." I'll go back to the house. ”

"Huh." Cha Zhi responded enthusiastically, only to see Cha Yun leave without looking back.

The flower room under Cha Xiang's hand has newly cultivated an early-blooming magnolia, the petals are plump to pointy, the shape is like a woman's palm, and even the color is the pink and white of the woman's skin, and the pink appears more and more intense at the tip, like a fingertip stained with rouge.

Song Zhi kept this magnolia well, and thought about painting it for the two children, she has been painting some flowers and birds recently, and she is also a little tired. So I just made a half-bucket of water master and only asked the two children to paint.

"Mother." Man'er himself was not good at painting, so he lost his paintbrush to peek at Ru'er's paintings, and after a few glances, he shouted.

Song Zhi took a sip of tea, put the teacup down again, and said, "What's the matter?" “

"Brother Ru'er's paint is different from mine." The brute's mouth was pouted high, and it was probably not a problem to hang an oil bottle.

Ru'er didn't move when she heard this, she glanced at Man'er's painting, then looked at her own painting, and explained softly: "Sister, the paint is the same, but I mixed it with some ink. “

"I also want the color of my brother's flower." Man'er said sweetly.

Ru'er took Man'er's brush, swept it in the water, and swung it in the canvas he had just adjusted.

Seeing that the two little guys were talking in a good way, Song Zhi didn't care, and just continued to bury his head in writing a letter to Jiang Changwan.

I don't know what's going on these days, Jiang Changwan doesn't seem to like going out very much, and the last time they met was when she went to the Song Mansion to mourn.

When Song Zhi came to see her, he always felt that the words were not speculative, and he would come back after sitting for an hour or two at most, and he didn't have the same desire to talk all night long.

Song Zhi couldn't figure out what was going on, so he thought about writing a letter to Jiang Changwan and explaining his doubts and thoughts clearly.

Song Zhi was concentrating on writing, and he didn't hear the sound of the door opening, until the meteor behind him said, "Lord Qianqiu." Only then did she raise her head and see Shen Baiyan standing in front of her, holding two red sugar gourds in her hands.

The barbarian had already pounced, like an unweaned puppy, entangled Shen Baiyan's calves and coquettishly. Ru'er stood in place, looking a little restrained, but still said very politely, "Hello, uncle." ”

Shen Baiyan nodded and said gently, "Ru'er is here." He handed the two sugar gourds to Man'er, who took them and turned around and left, and simply handed one to Ru'er neatly, without the slightest reluctance.

Shen Baiyan is tall, standing in place, he can see the paintings made by the two children clearly, although the paintings of the barbarians are a little childlike, but in the end they draw gourds in the same way, there is no aura, but the paintings of Ru'er are different, the brushstrokes he uses are very simple, but with a few brushstrokes, the shape of this magnolia is outlined, effortlessly.

Shen Baiyan glanced at Ru'er again, and saw that he was eating a sugar gourd in small bites, so he said, "Ru'er, tomorrow I will send Man'er to the Ancestral Mansion to learn painting, can you go with me?" ”

Ru'er first glanced at Song Zhi, and saw that she was waiting for her answer with a smile, so she nodded and whispered, "Okay." ”

"Why are you back so early today?" Song Zhi just finished writing the letter in his hand, gently dried the ink, handed it to Cha Yun and told her to seal it and send it to the Zhou Mansion.

Shen Baiyan listened to her instructions, his eyes moved slightly, and said, "You already know?" ”

Song Zhi opened a pair of pure and innocent eyes, as ignorant as a deer, and said, "What do you know? ”

Shen Baiyan took a sip of warm tea, reached out and took a thin-skinned orange, and said, "The Zhou Mansion seems to have damaged an aunt, I thought you heard something, so I went to write to condole." ”

Song Zhi didn't know anything about this matter, and in shock, he hurriedly beckoned to the meteor and said, "Don't seal it, don't deliver the letter first." ”

She asked closely, "When did it happen?" Where did the aunt come from? Why don't I know anything? ”

Shen Baiyan thought that with the relationship between Song Zhi and Jiang Changwan, she must have heard of this kind of thing, but Song Zhi didn't know it, so she put aside the half-peeled orange and said to Song Zhi: "That aunt is Zhou Jie's cousin, who just went yesterday, as if she had tuberculosis and died in the garden. ”

"Cousin?" A vague figure appeared in Song Zhi's mind, it seemed to be a delicate woman with weak quality, she nodded, and said, "I have a little impression of this person, it was Sister Jiang's mother-in-law who was forced between the two of them." ”

Shen Baiyan let out a 'hmm', picked up the orange again, cleaned up the white luo carefully, fed the orange petals to Song Zhi, and said, "It's so cold this winter, many healthy people can't stand it, let alone the patients. You don't have to mention it, it's a white thing after all. ”

Song Zhi chewed the orange and nodded, and said, "My sister and I have been less in contact recently, and I should take the initiative to go on a trip." ”

The corners of Shen Baiyan's mouth tensed slightly, and then he relaxed and didn't answer, but said: "Remember to bring water chestnuts when you go out, I don't have much for lunch today, I'm a little hungry, let's pass the meal early." ”

Song Zhi heard Shen Baiyan say that he was hungry, so he hurriedly called Meteor to spread the word.

"Mother, what kind of dishes do you have today?" The brute tilted his head and asked. Her mind is scattered quickly, as lively as a kite in spring.

Meteor instructed Cha Zhi to turn around and come back, and when he saw Song Zhi smiling lightly and didn't reply, he said, "There is a fried lotus root box that the princess likes, and a pine nut chicken nugget that the little boy likes." ”

This pine nut chicken nugget is also Zeng Yunyi's favorite dish, the sadness in Song Zhi's eyes flashed, and he quickly forced himself to put this emotion behind him, and smiled at the two children: "Today's rice in the small kitchen is mixed with blood rice, you have to eat more." ”

The brute clapped his hands up and down, and Ru'er just nodded reservedly.

Ru'er lived in the palace for seven days, Song Ling came to see him three times, the father and son were locked in the house and didn't know what to say, Song Ling had a gloomy face when he came out, and Ru'er's eyes were red.

Song Ling didn't say that he wanted to take Confucianism away, and Song Zhi naturally wouldn't mention it, and it was easy to raise ten Confucianism plus ten Jin mothers in the palace. There was another gentleman in the house to enlighten Man'er and Ru'er, and every few days he was sent to Mrs. Lin's knees to learn painting. The barbarian is lively and cute, Bao'er is quiet and obedient, and Ru'er is steady and distressing.

Listening to Lin Tianlang, with these three children under Chenghuan's knees, Mrs. Lin's temperament is a lot smoother, and even Lin Qingyan loves to go to Mrs. Lin's yard.

The palace and the Lin family have no opinions, but when Song Tian came on this day, he handed a sentence for the Lin family, saying that Ru'er had been disturbed by living in the palace for many days. It was rare for her to be so polite, but Song Zhi didn't feel very comfortable when she heard it, so she casually dealt with it and diverted the topic. Song Tian was so obedient that he knew that Song Zhi didn't like to hear it, so he didn't say anything more.

"That matter, the hurdle in my mother's heart has passed?" Song Zhi asked.

These words made Song Tian recall the events of that day, his thin eyelashes hung down a little embarrassed, and said, "My mother didn't mention it again." ”
