Qing Dai returned to Shangguan Mansion, just walked into the courtyard gate of Rongxi Hall, and sent people out with a curtain on the side of the inverted room, and when she saw Qing Dai, she was surprised: "Three girls, you got out of school so early?" ”

"Hello three girls." It was the big girl Yan Ban next to the big girl who spoke.

Qing Dai glanced at the two of them. nodded, "Go back, you tell the second sister and the fourth sister, the holiday will start today, and classes will be held on the second day of February of the new year." You talk first, I'll go back to the room first. Taohuā, you go back and change your clothes and go to the house. ”

Qingdai sent Tao Huā away, didn't let Yinhong enter the house to serve, and went back to the room by herself. Apricot Huā was playing with the charcoal fire in the stove outside, and the crescent moon sat on the pier next to her to collect the soles of her shoes. As soon as they saw Qingdai come in, they all put down their work.

"Mr. Bai is on vacation." Without waiting for the two to ask, Qing Dai explained while going to the clean room to change her dirty clothes.

"Girl, you have to wear a dress with a crescent moon and white edges, you look dirty like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to wear it next time." Xinghuā came out of the clean room with Qing Dai's dirty clothes.

"I stepped on the snowdrift in the alley and accidentally rubbed it twice on the mud. Take it and wash it, and if you can't change it to something else, you just have to do something else. Qing Dai replied hesitantly, and the fewer people she knew about Gu in the back alley of Baifu, the better. Originally, I respected the teacher, got up early in the morning and went to class, but I ran away in vain and didn't say anything, and I met two bastard boys, plus a cute black rabbit who once made me unlucky, which made people's good mood for the day go away.

Qingdai warmed her hands with the tea bowl handed over by the crescent moon, and took a sip from time to time, "It would be nice if there were lemons." ”

"What do you say, girl?"

"No, this bee mì black tea tastes good, the sweetness is moderate, and I was too sweet last time to panic."

"The slave remembers what you said, so this time I put less bees."

"You got it?" Qing Dai took a sip, "I'm still silver-red." ”

The smiling eyes of the crescent moon, as soon as she got the praise, she smiled and saw that the teeth were not visible, "Sister Yinhong talked to Sister Yanzi in the house last morning, and the slave was afraid that you would come back at noon and want to drink, so I got it myself." ”

"Why did the swallows get here?" Qing Dai asked casually while holding the cup.

The crescent moon said: "Sister Yanzi asked Sister Yinhong to ask for huā, saying that the purse that the eldest girl was afraid of rushing was a huā, and it made no difference if she took it out and gave it away, so let her drive out a few more huāsè." ”

"Didn't Madame order a batch in the embroidery workshop outside?" Qing Dai picked up a small piece of huā sū on the table and threw it into her mouth.

The eldest girl said that the embroidery workshop outside was all the same, and she couldn't show sincerity when she took out her hand. The Meng family has a large family in Beijing, and as soon as she enters the door, whether she gives gifts or rewards, she always embroiders her own purse, which looks decent. ”

While talking, Yinhong came in with a curtain and asked Qingdai to say: "Yanzi said that there are only two people in the eldest girl's house who are embroidered, and I am afraid that I will not be able to catch up, so I want the slave to help." ”

Qingdai drank a cup of tea comfortably, and then looked at Yinhong, who was standing on the side waiting for a reply, and said, "The eldest sister will be out of the cabinet next month, and the time is indeed tight."

Since she needs a helper in the house, you can go and help yourself, and leave the affairs in the house to the three of them for the next few days. ”

Yinhong thought that Qingdai had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "The errand slaves in the house are busy, and Zuo is just helping to embroider in his spare time." The slave maid thought it was not a big deal, and the swallow begged me, so I answered first, thinking that I would tell the girl when it snowed. "Yinhong has been personally instructed by Mama Zhu in Wuzhou in recent years, and her embroidery work has improved a lot compared to when she served by Xiao Feng's side, and she is also outstanding among the maids.

"Oh! No way! Qing Dai smiled, "If you need anything, you just have to say it." ”

"Slave and maid provincial!"

This is the end of the temporary borrowing of helpers from the Spring Courtyard.

Since the winter vacation of the women's school, the old lady who has been busy with Qingqiang's marriage on Xiao Feng's side is not a person who cares about these false courtesies, so she exempts the three sisters from morning and dusk. This is undoubtedly the best news for the indigo who loves to sleep in. And everywhere in the Shangguan Mansion was not idle, everyone was in full swing to make the final preparations for Qingqiang's marriage, and even Yinhong was borrowed by Xiao Feng and Mama Zhu to temporarily help manage the silk embroidered satin in the dowry.

December 11 Qingqiang wedding.

The girl is the most beautiful when she gets married, and the not very beautiful Qingqiang is undoubtedly beautiful when she wears the phoenix crown and xia veil, red as fire, like a red rose blooming arbitrarily, radiating all her gorgeous posture at this moment.

Qingqiang hugged the old lady and cried silently, and the matchmaker sang auspicious words on the side, smiling from time to time. Seeing that the time was running out, the matchmaker was also anxious, "Yo, my girl, I'm crying with makeup!" ”

Qingqiang ignored it, and hugged the old lady resignedly, as if she wanted to absorb the last trace of warmth.

Qing Dai sighed almost imperceptibly, the feeling of leaving a loved one to a family that she was completely unfamiliar with, living with a man she had only met once, knowing nothing and being at a loss, always made people feel a little uneasy. This feels like she had experienced it when she first arrived in Daqi, looking at the tearful Qingqiang, she suddenly felt a little reluctant to this eldest sister who was not very close or even hostile.

"Girl, old lady, you have to hurry, you won't be able to catch up with the auspicious time for a while."

The matchmaker shouted, and the old lady hurriedly comforted Qingqiang a few words, and let the matchmaker go out with Qingqiang on her back.

Qingqiang's hand grabbed the old lady's hand and shouted...... The grandmother ......, and the old lady was also full of tears, reluctantly shook off her granddaughter's hand, choked and whispered the name of "Qingqiang". 1 Xiao Feng helped the old lady, stroked her old man's back and helped her to smooth her breath, "Today is the big girl's big day, don't be too sad, you don't worry, let's go to the front and watch the big girl go out." The old lady nodded, and the two walked hand in hand to the outer courtyard.

Qingqiang's fiery figure disappeared from sight.

Qingdai and they can't go to the outer courtyard, Qingwei watched Qingqiang leave, wiped the tears on her face with a handkerchief, and grabbed Qingdai's hand, "Third sister, woo, I don't want to marry in the future." "If you don't get married, are you still going to let your father support you for the rest of your life?" Qinglian sneered, "You can't talk nonsense, you won't be able to marry in the future." ”

Qingwei puffed out her cheeks and glared at Qinglian with tears.

"Silly girl, girls always have to get married, you don't understand it when you're young." 青dai mōmō 青薇's head: "When one day you can marry someone you can entrust for life, you will never say such childish words again." ”

I originally wanted to say what you like, but when I think about it, the words you like or you love are not suitable for this era, even if they are placed in modern times, they are used casually by some people. There are also those who originally loved to death and moved the world, making people think that they could last forever, maybe they will part ways and become passers-by in the next moment. Speaking of which, there is also an advantage here that the marriage of the parents' order matchmaker is relatively much more stable than in modern times, and the women here can't hold up half the sky, so it's good to find a man who can be with him for a lifetime. Although this marriage is not necessarily based on feelings.

Qing Dai breathed a sigh of relief, in another five or six years, she will go out of the house like Qing Qiang, what will her beloved look like?

"I don't know what the new brother-in-law looks like?" Qingwei stopped crying, and turned to gossip about Meng Chang'an.

"I heard that he is a military general, and it is estimated that he is five big and three thick." Qinglian snorted coldly, and said, "Reckless! ”

Qingdai only felt that Qinglian couldn't eat grapes and said that grapes were sour, she was very satisfied with Meng Changan when she listened to her grandmother's words, and she could make her grandmother praise that there must be something extraordinary about this person.

"You are talking nonsense, my father loves my eldest sister so much, how can I let her marry a reckless man!" "That person who practices martial arts is not a reckless man, is he a talented man?"

"Maybe my brother-in-law will be a general in the future?"

"Hey, what's the good of fighting and killing?"

Looking at Qinglian and Qingwei's bickering and listening to the sound of auspicious and festive firecrackers echoing in her ears, Qingdai suddenly smiled, she has nothing to think about what to do so much, there must be a road before the car arrives at the mountain, there is no foundation for love, then it's not bad for us to find an honest person who can support himself for a lifetime! Either way, life goes on now......

Three days later, Qingqiang returned to the door, and Qingdai saw the legendary eldest brother-in-law Meng Changan for the first time.

Qinglian glanced at it, and a strange smile appeared on her face, "Looks mediocre, honest and ordinary, it's just a good look." ”

Indeed, although Meng Changan is tall, his facial features are ordinary, but his eyes are bright, giving people a restrained and sharp feeling. Qing Dai thinks that this person may not be as ordinary as he looks.

Qingwei was a little disappointed, this was completely inconsistent with the image of the majestic general in her mind, and she pouted, obviously annoyed that Qinglian had won the fight that day, and she was more and more dissatisfied with seeing this new brother-in-law.

Meng Changan saw the old lady, the lady and the three sisters-in-law, and withdrew from the Rongxi Hall with his uncle Shangguan Xi. The old lady left Qingqiang to speak, 1 Xiao Feng went to deal with the affairs of the inner courtyard, and the three sisters went out of the main room together.

Qing Dai looked at Qingwei, who was sulking on the side, and asked with a smile, "Who are you angry with?" Qingwei was silent and pouted at Qinglian, and Qinglian looked at her defiantly.

Qing Dai smiled, "You didn't see the smile on the eldest sister's face?" It doesn't matter how good the eldest brother-in-law looks, the important thing is that he can be wholeheartedly to the eldest sister, as long as the eldest sister is doing well. ”

"That's right." Qingwei's mood eased, "It's still the third sister, you can speak, unlike some people, ..............." "Too lazy to see like a child." Qinglian raised her head and glanced at Qingwei, and swept over Qingdai in a blink of an eye, "Third sister, the Spring Courtyard is now empty, when will you move over?" "That's right! Third sister, when will you pass? Qingwei was happy, as soon as the third sister was gone, she didn't have to face the proud second sister alone.

Qingdai was stunned for a moment, Qinglian didn't say anything, she almost forgot about it, and glanced at Qinglian and Qingwei, "I can't be the master of this matter, so naturally I have to wait for my mother to arrange it." "Then I'm waiting for the third sister to move over as soon as possible in Wuju, and I have a lot of contact." Qinglian glanced at her two younger sisters, and Shi Shiran left.

Qingwei urged Qingdai, "Third sister, why don't I move to the Spring Courtyard to live with you?" ”

Qing Dai looked at Qingwei's expectant gaze, and it was hard to refuse, so she had to say, "Okay, but I still need my mother's consent to this matter." "I'm going to go to my mother!" Without waiting for Qing Dai's reaction, Qing Wei ran away, Qing Dai smiled helplessly, just move, grandmother can come over at any time, don't move out, people also say that grandmother is biased, it's not good. @。
