At the beginning of the shower, the whole mansion was calm.

It just so happens that today is the first day of the new year, so I have to go to the housemother early to say goodbye, and I have to receive the moon silver, and there are many things. Yun Niang got up from the bed, and was about to get dressed but felt soreness all over her body, but there were extra legs belonging to a man next to her. Yun Niang looked back, a little stunned.

He was getting dressed, a blue-black official uniform. When I woke up in the morning, my eyebrows were a little lazy, and my originally serious face was a little softer. He came to her, but he hadn't stayed overnight for a long time.

came back to his senses, "I'll go and ask Huang's mother to fetch water." ”

Sheng Qian said, "No need." He got up, his face grim and gloomy, "You can rest." ”

Yun Niang had already touched her clothes and got up behind him.

Last night, Huang's mother got a letter, saying that he slept here at night, afraid that he would delay the old man when he got up early, so he was ready to go early. Last year, the house called for water in the middle of the night, and I knew in my heart that Yun Niang might not be able to get up this morning, so she had already cleaned up the two girls.

"Daddy." Erzhu saw Sheng Qian and said hello.

Yun Niang came out with her clothes buttoned up, and washed in the basin where he had washed his face just now.

"I'm going to go to the capital soon, and I'm getting older, so I'm looking for a few personal maids." Bingzhou has just become rich in the past few years, and the people are not complicated, and Sheng Qian has not had much pomp.

The two daughters in the family are taken care of by an old mother.

Yun Niang nodded and said meekly, "I know, please be safe in a while, I will ask Madame for instructions." ”

Sheng Qian's brows suddenly sank again, Yun Niang didn't know which words made him unhappy, hung her head, and took care of the diet of her two daughters. He glanced at Niang San and put down his chopsticks, "I'm full, I'll go first." ”

"I'll send the master."

"Not necessarily."

Sheng Qian swallowed the breath in his stomach and walked all the way to the door. The warmth of yesterday was gone, and he felt that Liu didn't take himself to heart at all, he was so tired at night, he went to the yamen early and busy, and he didn't have time to eat and didn't see him prepare some dry food for himself to pad his stomach.

——

"The master went to Aunt Liu's yard yesterday to stay overnight."

In Song's courtyard, Zhou's mother was gossiping with her. She casually mashed the flowers in the basket like a bowl and continued to grind them into juice, "It's not a big deal, the master has not gone to her house to sleep." ”

"It's different," said Zhou's mother, "I was here all night last night, and I left after dinner this morning." ”

Song's movements paused slightly, and he raised his head after a moment. She is not fat, her face is really round, her apricot eyes and nose, middle-aged appearance, and she looks very kind, "Brother Qian is of this temperament, it is better to miss the old love than not to miss the old love." ”

She got up from her chair, "She should be here with her two daughters today." Pearl was sick a few days ago and hadn't seen her for a few days. He brushed his hair and said as he walked, "Put that impatiens juice into the white porcelain bottle that my mother's family sent a few days ago, and give it to Mingzhu later, she likes this." ”

"Yes".

Mother Zhou said again, "Aunt Liu's family is here again?" ”

Song was suspicious, "Someone from her family?" She knows something, Liu Yun's mother died early, and if she has a stepmother, she naturally has a stepfather. Later, he was sold to a flower boat and was rescued by Brother Qian. In the future, except for her own brother, her stepmother and her father will not have much contact.

"Sister Ping, Aunt Liu's niece." Zhou's mother said, "There are also those two boys, who are also joining in the fun when they see Sister Ping after school today." "The two people I said are the sons of the Sheng family, and they are also the cousins of the Song family, she has no children under her knees, and these two often come.

"Why are you here at this time?" The Song family is not unhappy with these two coming, but they are in a hurry to leave recently. Sheng Qian recruited a large number of bookkeepers, and now the guest rooms are full, "Where is there a place to live?" ”

"Where Sister Ping lives, where does Brother Fei live, they are all their own relatives, it's not good to favor one over the other." Zhou's mother said something, and Song looked at her, and she had a bottom in her heart.

——

Yun Niang waited outside with her two daughters for a short time, and was called in by the big maid in Song's room.

"Is Mingzhu's body feeling better?"

"Much better, Mother." Mingzhu looked up, the concerned expression on Song's face was not fake, and she lowered her head. It's a layer away from Song's weekdays, but she really treats herself pretty well.

"Yun Niang, the old man mentioned it before, Mingzhu is old, so he should invite a few more maids. I'll bring up half of your share there, and I'll look at a few of them, and then you can pick two. ”

"Mrs. Xie."

"Thank you or something, it's all from your own family." Song smiled, "I'm going back to my hometown soon, you haven't been there, if you're flustered, come and talk to me if you have nothing to do." There are many people in the family, and there are some things to tell you. ”

Yun Niang hurriedly thanked the Song family.

I have heard him say that the Sheng family is also a family in the capital. She was always afraid that she would not be able to handle the complicated relationship and hurt her two daughters, "It's troublesome Mrs." ”

"I always see the outside like this", Song covered his lips, and after a while, he remembered something, "I forgot to tell you, there were guests at home last night, and tonight it was said that there was rain, and it was too late to go back, and now that the guest rooms are full, I want to let the guests stay where you are." ”

"Brother Fei'er, are they two?" These two families are close to each other, and they are the eldest descendants of the Sheng family in Bingzhou, and they often look forward to the family.

"Where, if it's the single or two leather monkeys, I still need to tell you a special one?" Song covered her lips and couldn't help laughing, "Sister Ping, the eldest girl in your family, is also here, and there are people living in the outer courtyard, so it's not appropriate for the girl to go in." ”

Mingzhu frowned slightly, "The two of them are here again?" ”

She didn't like these two before, Xu heard the lord say that Xiao Brown bullied her yesterday, Xu is something else, and her senses for the two are getting worse and worse, "Brother Brown is okay, he is young, Brother Fei is old, it is not appropriate to go to my mother's yard." ”

Song's smile paused, and he glanced at Sheng Mingzhu, "Little girl's family, when did you think so much?" ”

"Brother Fei and Brother Brown are all your cousins, called mother's cousin?" She continued, "It's not that the guest room is nothing, there have been a lot of things recently, and there are many guests in the house, so I don't have to let the lord's guests go to the concierge?" Otherwise, let Ping'er go to the gatehouse, but she can make room for it? ”

"Isn't the porter a place where people live?" I feel that something is wrong, look at this person is not right anywhere, let Sister Ping come to the concierge, what do others think of her mother.

"I'll look at the arrangement", Yun Niang patted Mingzhu's hand under the table and replied.

Song smiled in front of him, Sheng Mingzhu was just opposite, Xu is scene was too similar, and the vague scene in the original dream was also clear. That day, her mother Chen Tang, she watched from the side and wanted to go up but was stopped by the people behind her, there was Fei Ge'er, and Brown Ge'er, Song seemed to be smiling like this, smiling at her mother Shentang.

Song noticed that someone was looking at her, but when she looked up, she saw that the maid was unblinking. Her eyes were extremely dark, and she was not looked at coldly, which made her tremble.

"Pearl?"

Sheng Mingzhu came back to her senses, Yun Niang poked her beside her, but she couldn't help it, so she smiled at the Song family. Song inexplicably felt a little cold.

——

"Mother Zhou, have you seen it?" Song Shi went back to his room, "Mingzhu's girl looks at me today, why do I feel panicked?" ”

"How can you?" Mother Zhou put the new account book away, "Don't talk about it, madam, are you better to the eldest lady than to her own mother?" What's not to like? ”

"Do you think she will doubt ......"

Mother Zhou stretched out her hand to block her lips and looked into her eyes, "Madame is kind-hearted, and everyone can see how they have been to their mother over the years." The old lady's idea, you are filial, and there is nothing wrong with it, and the old lady is reluctant to let the two girls be concubines. How good the eldest lady is, it is recorded in your name, just like your own child. ”

The old lady doesn't like Liu, it's no one's fault.

Song first smiled, and finally frowned, "Can Mingzhu recognize me?" It's so old, and the little one is good. "It's the right age for anywhere.

"But the eldest lady has to hurt the master."

Zhou's mother said a word, and walked out again, "Madame, don't think about it, I'll go back to Beijing immediately, and there will be an old lady for everything there." ”

——

"Sixteen, right?"

Yun Niang asked, and the little girl in a green shirt blushed and nodded, "In three months, there will be sixteen." ”

"It's almost the age of getting married." She estimated the thoughts of her mother's family, because she saw that her niece was old, and wanted to send her over to Zhang Luo and Zhang Luo's mother-in-law's family. The girl's face became redder and redder, Yun Niang touched it, and said, "Ping'er, you can live here with peace of mind for a few days, several people in charge of the house have not yet married wives, but when it happens, I will arrange it for you." ”

The girl's face changed for a moment, and she had something to say, but she still didn't say it.

Glancing at the girl, Sheng Mingzhu walked outside. The cloud fan that Brother Brown was holding in his hand, Brother Fei was playing with the emerald feather pen of the spirit bead, and he frowned almost instantly, "It's getting late, why don't you leave?" ”

"Sister Mingzhu."

"Sister Mingzhu."

"My cousin said let's stay here." ”

Huang's mother walked over from the side and hurriedly shouted to the two boys, "The side rooms are all prepared for you, how can you live here?" "It's all women here, Brother Brown is still less than ten years old, and Brother Fei is almost fifteen.

——

"Mother, why didn't you talk to your father before?"

Sheng Mingzhu lay on Yun Niang's lap, she vaguely remembered that her mother and father had a good relationship in the past. Yun Niang answered her question, and then lowered her head to look at the letter from her mother at home. The letter explained that Sister Ping should take care of her, and mentioned her marriage.

Seeing the back, she suddenly slapped the letter on the table, and her whole chest rose and fell. Sheng Mingzhu was a little suspicious, so she picked up the letter and read it, but Yun Niang didn't have time to stop it.

Her temperament is bigger than Yun Niang, and she sprayed after reading it, "Why are you so shameless, every month Niang will use her own moon silver to help them raise their nephews." Why do you have to find me another mother? "Sister Ping is only three years older than her, and I don't know what she thinks in her heart.

"Mother, I don't like grandma's house, and I don't want Sister Ping to continue to live."

Yun Niang received the letter and burned it.

She has a soft personality and is not a fool, looking at her daughter's worried eyes, she smiled, "Don't worry." "The water spilled by the daughter who got married, and the sister-in-law used to treat her very well, but in the end she has a son, which is more important than her. She also has two daughters of her own.

Sister Ruoping is not a big heart, she can help Zhang Luo. If you really have to die in it, let her go. After all these years, how can Yun Niang not see what kind of person the Song family is, without her help, it is naturally enough for her to suffer, although this is the case, how to deal with this matter if there is a bit of a headache.

"Mother, don't be sad." Sheng Mingzhu saw that her expression was wrong, and was busy whispering comfortingly.

Yun Niang shook her head, sadness was secondary. There is only one relative left in her hometown, and she is afraid that this matter will not be handled well, and even this relative will be gone. After all, she is just a concubine, something is going to happen to the main family, Mingzhu is fine, Lingzhuer is not loved by him, and the future is still unknown?
