Chapter 133: Kissing

The eldest young master, Li Jing, led the servants all the way. The sedan chair escorting his aunt and cousin returned to the gate of the Qingguo Marquis' Mansion.

The guards had already reported to the door, and the others rushed to greet Mrs. Gu's sedan chair, although they didn't get a response, but the servants of the Huo family distributed the reward and sealed it. Touching that the reward was not light, everyone was beaming, and finally noticed the gray-blue cloth on the Huo family's servant and the white cloth strip on his waist, barely suppressed his joy, and respectfully escorted the sedan chair into the door, and changed to a pair of delicate little servants to carry the sedan chair before going to the second door. The hired sedan chair driver was led to the next hut to rest and receive the reward, and someone sent their sedan chair back.

When the sedan chair reached the second gate, it was carried by a rough servant, but soon after entering the second gate, it stopped. The four housekeepers and ladies hugged each other, and when they arrived in front of the sedan chair, they saluted An Daoqi first: "Aunt An, Miss Cousin An, how are you doing along the way?" Tired? I've been waiting for a long time, and I'm looking forward to Mrs. Gu and Miss Cousin. ”

The last two sedan chairs open the curtains first. Two women came out. The one in front wore an indigo jacket and a crow blue horse-faced skirt, with a simple bun on his head, and only two jade-inlaid silver hairpins. She was about thirty or forty years old, with low eyebrows and regular steps, and only occasionally raised her eyes to glance to the side, and only then did she let out a fine light. The one in the back is a fourteen or fifteen-year-old, with neat beards and a pea-green dress, although his appearance is not very outstanding, but he is steady.

The two of them got off the sedan chair, walked to the two sedan chairs in front of them, and softly invited the people inside to get off the sedan chair, and opened the sedan curtain, before each helping out a beauty.

Mrs. Huo had a beautiful face, and she was only thirty or forty years old, but her face was haggard, and she was in mourning, so she was not easy to apply grease and powder, so she looked like she was in her forties. She was already very tired and a little pale, but the excitement of seeing her loved ones added a little blood to her. She smiled at the housekeeper lady headed by her: "Sister-in-law Wang, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

The Wang family's heart was proud, and he resisted the urge to look at his other companions, and gave a salute with a smile: "It's hard for Mrs. Gu to recognize my old face, it's really my creation." Please come with me. The old lady is in a hurry! ”

Li smiled and nodded, then took the middle-aged hand beside him and slowly walked towards the courtyard gate in front. The Wang family quickly followed, and while saying some greetings and the old lady and the Hou Ye missed each other, they looked at the middle-aged woman quietly, feeling very familiar. The woman noticed her gaze and glanced sideways at her: "Sister-in-law Wang doesn't recognize me?" Why do you see me like that? ”

The Wang family asked tentatively: "But...... Shark girl?! Why do you ......" she swallowed her saliva, feeling that the current dress of the green shark did not look like a housekeeper's lady, but she was wearing a woman's bun.

Li smiled and said: "The lord took her into the house last year and promoted her to an aunt, doesn't Jingli know yet?" Qing Shark said: "Madam, I don't have my mother's family in the capital, so this kind of trivial matter naturally doesn't need to let the old lady and the Hou Ye know." ”

The Wang family made up for it with a sneer, and couldn't help but feel a little pantothenic acid in his heart: "What's the big deal?" Even if I am promoted to an aunt and have no man, I might as well be a subordinate......"

The other ladies looked at the green shark quietly, and peeked at Miss Huo, who had been following silently, and secretly compared her with several young ladies in their own house: her appearance is naturally good, but she is not as beautiful as the second miss. And the face doesn't seem to be very good......

No one knows what Miss Huo's master and servant are thinking.

The group walked with their own thoughts, and when they heard a "Mrs. Gu and Miss Cousin have arrived", they found that they had come to the door of the three-entry courtyard where the old lady lived. Li Shi gasped slightly, and Miss Huo was busy and gently smoothed her back, before replacing the green shark and helping her mother to the courtyard.

Along the way, I stepped forward to say goodbye, but it was still mixed but not chaotic, and when I walked through the main house, I faintly heard the old lady in the house reprimanding someone: "...... I should have sent my own sedan chair to wait on the dock, and I didn't have to grieve the children to hire a sedan chair, what kind of family is the Huo family? When have you ever encountered something like this?! It's all your poor arrangement! ”

Li heard that there was a woman inside who kept making amends to her mother, and her voice didn't seem to be young, so she guessed who it was, glanced at her daughter, and then called out "mother", and the voice in the house immediately stopped, and then she heard words like "old lady be careful" and "hold on", she hurriedly pulled her daughter's door, her eyes were red, and she fell to the ground: "Mother......" The old lady had already hugged her: "My son, you want to kill me......"

The mother and daughter hugged their heads and cried, only then did the sister-in-law meet, and then Miss Huo stepped forward to meet her grandmother and aunt. When the old lady saw that her granddaughter was thin, she hugged and cried again.

After crying and worshipping, when everyone sat down, An Shi carefully looked at the only daughter of the Huo family.

He was no more than twelve or thirteen years old, and wore a light grass gray jacket. Bamboo green horse face skirt, wearing a few simple silver jewelry, but clean, quiet and calm, not a word, can be called dignified and beautiful, the appearance is also beautiful and lovely, just look at the face, it seems to be a little weak, plus the body is too thin, as if the wind blows. Maybe it's because in filial piety, you have to be in a hurry, and you don't pay much attention to your diet? An Shi pondered, should she let the kitchen make up for her and take a closer look? In any case, such a body is not suitable for being the housewife of the Hou Mansion, but the Huo family's property is really attractive, so just rush to this, and think about it for your son......

The old lady had already chatted with her daughter, and cried again when she talked about her son-in-law Huo Chongye's illness before and after his illness, the handling of the funeral, the royal decree, etc. An Shi was busy comforting the old lady, and Miss Huo also choked up and said to her mother: "Mother has been gone since my father." Almost every day she washed her face with tears, and her body gradually lost weight, and the daughter hoped that her mother would see her grandmother, and she would be able to have some joy and be cured. The mother is still so sad, how can her daughter let go of her heart? ”

The old lady hurriedly said: "Exactly, Zhi'er, since you have returned home, you can relax, and it is not a way to be sad again." Look at your daughter. I'm still young, and I'm going to take care of you more in the future, so you have to cheer up! ”

Li Shi wept and said ashamedly: "It's useless for my daughter, but when I think of him, I ......" She wiped her tears, took her mother's hand and said: "I don't know how long I can accompany Yi'er, she has no father, and she will have to ask her grandmother and uncle to take care of her in the future......" After that, she cried again, and the old lady gently beat her: "What nonsense?!" My wife isn't dead yet! You'll live a long life! Having said that, looking at her daughter's pale face, she already had an ominous premonition when she was used to seeing the world, and suddenly sadness came from it, and the mother and daughter hugged their heads and cried again.

An's was a little in a hurry, and he couldn't help but complain a little in his heart: the old lady is old, she has been crying for so long, and she doesn't know if she will hurt, if she lets her husband know that she is so sad, but she, as a daughter-in-law, can't persuade them, and she doesn't know what to say.

After a while, someone outside came to report that the young grandmother and young ladies were coming, and An suddenly felt that he had come to a savior, and asked the maids to hurry up, while comforting the old lady and Li: "Don't be sad, in the future, in Beijing, often meet, this person will naturally live a long life." A few of them are still waiting outside, so that they can meet their aunt and sisters, right? ”

The old lady collected her tears, Pearl and Coral had already prepared a face wash and sent it to her and Li respectively, and the green shark hurriedly waited for Li to wash her face and brush her hair again.

The old lady stared at the green shark a few times, and then called Liuli: "Let them in, but it's my wife who is making a joke today." Liuli smiled and went, and after a while, the second miss was the leader, and the Jing family and the third miss were behind. The three of them and a group of girls rushed in, and greeted the old lady with a smile. Ann introduced the guests and paid a visit.

Everyone sat down and laughed, but Huo Yi still sat quietly on the side, looking at his cousin and cousins quietly.

Jing has a beautiful appearance, a round face, and a kind smile often on his lips, and he knows that he is a person with an excellent temper at first sight. Although the second cousin Yijun is young, she has snow-skinned eyes, is delicate and lovely, and speaks smartly, which makes the old lady laugh after a while. As for the third cousin Xijun, she is still young, pale, and thin, and always seems to be a little timid, always keeping her head down, and not daring to look at people directly.

Yijun noticed that Huo Yi was looking at them, so he asked her with a smile, "What does my cousin do on weekdays?" What books have you read at home? ”

Huo Yi smiled slightly, and lowered his head again: "In addition to talking to my mother at home, I often be a female celebrity, as for reading, I just read the "Female Commandment" and "The Book of Filial Piety", I often hear that the second cousin is a talented woman, I am naturally inferior to you." ”

Yijun was a little disappointed: "I heard that the Huo family ancestor has a great talented girl, so I always attach great importance to the talent and learning of my daughter in the family, cousin, don't coax me, right?" ”

Li glanced at his daughter with disgust, but Huo Yi was just silent. An Shi smiled and said, "What is this?" Your cousin is going to live in our house, and we will go to school together in the future. Then he asked the housekeeper who followed up: "Have you sent in the luggage of Mrs. Gu and Miss Biao?" Be careful, don't leave it out. The housekeepers and ladies should say yes in unison.

Huo Yi's heart moved, and he respectfully: "Thank you aunt for your inquiry, it's just ...... In this move north, my mother and I came almost as a family, and there were a lot of bulky luggage, which were rarely used on weekdays, but it was not easy to throw away, but there was no reason to send things to my grandmother's house, so I instructed the housekeeper who accompanied me to send them to the Huo family's old house in the capital. When the old house was finished, my mother and I moved in. ”

This made the people in the house surprised for a while, An Shi frowned slightly, and said with a smile: "I have also sent people to see your family's old mansion, and it has not been inhabited for decades, how can you mother and daughter live in it if they are weak?" Our family has a lot of houses, and it is my aunt's mother's house, so we can just live there. I'll make sure that the two of you live comfortably, and the family still knows what to do so well? ”

Huo Yi raised his eyes and looked at her quickly, and said with a faint smile: "Uncle said that the Huo family has a house, and there is no reason to live in a relative's house for many years. Let people know, but I'm afraid of making jokes. ”

In the middle of the house, the youngest Xijun couldn't help but tighten his handkerchief. What the hell is going on? Why do you talk about it, and the situation seems to be wrong?

(The ladies finally came out...... ）
