Grandma Xun took the post and looked at it, "Is it Mrs. Hou's post?" I just heard my mother say today that Mrs. Hou Ye is sick and can't see Kena. Is this better? ”

Fang sighed, "Last time I took your fourth sister there, she was so sick that she only sat down for a while, and she couldn't support it. The person who came to deliver the post just now said that he had just gained some spirit and asked me to bring a few of your sisters to meet him. ”

Grandma Xun looked at the post carefully, "Mrs. Hou said that she only saw the fourth sister last time, and this time I asked Mrs. to bring the other sisters to meet each other." ”

"She's sick...... Alas, it's rare for her to post and please, you go and get some good cars. Tomorrow you should go with you, these days must be suffocating, you should go out for a walk. ”

"It's still my wife who loves my daughter-in-law." Grandma Xun agreed with a smile, and said tentatively: "Daughter-in-law, it's good to only take the fourth sister there." The eldest sister has to embroider a dowry and can't go out. The second sister and the third sister, although they are both good, they are not used to seeing people. The daughter-in-law only prepares the sedan chair for his wife and fourth sister? ”

Hearing this, Fang glanced at Grandma Xun, "Bring your second sister and third sister, they have also been here for half a month, and the relatives know that I brought them here, and it is not polite not to meet them after all." Mrs. Hou sent the post again and brought it to meet her, and there were no outsiders. ”

Grandma Xun even claimed that it was, "It's still Mrs. Thoughtful." ”

While the two of them were talking, a girl in a bean green dress brought new tea and brought it over. Grandma Xun took the tea in her hand, and saw that this girl had a good appearance and a very dignified demeanor, but she was not the one she often saw in Fang's place, so she asked, "Mrs., this is a new person?" It looks familiar. ”

"The maid Hongxuan has seen the big grandmother." Hongxuan squatted down and blessed Grandma Xun.

"Of course you look familiar, this is Mama Jin's youngest daughter, who was originally serving at the third girl. A girl here was sick a while ago, so Mama Jin asked her to make up for it temporarily. I saw that she was diligent and peaceful, so I simply stayed. It just so happened that you went to talk to the third girl, thinking about making up a girl for her. ”

Grandma Xun agreed, so she went down and went to the waterside house first. She seemed to have forgotten about making Xun Qingye difficult for no reason, but her face was slightly embarrassed at first, and after a while, she returned to normal, but she no longer smiled as before.

Xun Qingran saw it in his eyes, and he didn't show anything on his face, and still received it as usual.

"Mrs. is short of manpower, and when she saw that she was smart, she stayed by her side to serve and asked me to come and talk to the third sister. The third sister wants a girl, so choose one from me. ”

Since Xun Shufang's marriage was decided, Hongxuan often didn't know where she went. Xun Qingran saw her several times in Si'an Courtyard, and knew that sooner or later there would be today's incident.

Xun Qingran didn't take Hongxuan's matter to heart, she was just strange. This matter, the Fang family can just tell her directly whenever it is, how can it be biased to let Grandma Xun say it. As for what Grandma Xun said about adding another girl, if she is sincere, she should bring a few to pick her out, but now it is obviously perfunctory.

Originally, Xun Qingran thought that with Grandma Xun's background, she should be a decent person. However, with Fang Cai's ugly behavior, Xun Qingran was not surprised that Grandma Xun did this.

Grandma Xun was originally going to ask Xun Qingran about filling the manpower, she had already prepared an excuse, seeing that Xun Qingran didn't ask, she was too happy not to mention it, so she said that she would go to Dingyuan Marquis Mansion tomorrow.

“…… Mrs. instructed that there were many rules in the Hou Mansion, and the third sister should always remember Mrs. Ping's teachings. After Grandma Xun finished speaking, she stood up, and before going out, she added another sentence as if unintentionally, "I just came from the fourth sister's house, and the fourth sister will wear that set of silver and red makeup and dresses tomorrow." ”

Sending away Grandma Xun, Xun Qingran instructed Kikyo to prepare the clothes and jewelry to be worn tomorrow.

"The four girls wear the silver and red set, let's avoid it, let's wear the autumn fragrance set." Xun Qingran commanded.

Kikyo smiled, "I also used the girl's special instructions that the eldest grandmother is a decent person, so I just said directly, let the girl not go past the fourth girl." It's ridiculous, the big girl just stopped, and there was another her, even more than the big girl. ”

"After all, the eldest grandmother is many years older, and her face is stronger, what's so surprising?" Malt complained on the side.

All three laughed.

The next day, everyone took the car to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion together, and Xun Shufang actually dressed up and followed the car.

Xun Shufang, Xun Shuzhi, and Xun Qingran sat in a car. No one asked, Xun Shufang said it herself.

"Mrs. Hou's post is to invite our four sisters to go with us, so naturally I can't do without it. My wife also said that I should take me first, and then when I get married, my relatives will have to move around each other. Xun Shufang said in the end, a little shy.

Xun Qingran remembered that when Grandma Xun said it yesterday, she also mentioned that Xun Shufang would not go. However, when Xun Qingran saw Xun Shufang, she was not surprised at all. Such a lively event, how could Xun Shufang miss it. Moreover, Xun Shufang has always had the ability to coax the Fang clan to agree to her request. However, the Fang clan really connived at Xun Shufang. It seems that the Fang family must be able to benefit greatly from that family business.

The carriage traveled westward for about half an hour before it came to a halt in front of a large house. Xun Qingran lifted the corner of the curtain and looked out. The main gate of Dingyuan Hou's Mansion is three rooms and five frames, the gold lacquer lion knocker, the plaque is the four big characters of Jinxi Dingyuan Houfu, I heard that it was written by Emperor Taizong when the Hou Mansion was first built.

The carriage stopped for a while, and no one got off, and a mother-in-law came to talk, leading the carriage into the Hou Mansion through the West Corner Gate. After walking for a while, the carriage stopped, Fang and the others got out of the car, sat in the soft sedan chair carried by the mothers-in-law, went directly to the second gate, and stopped in front of a big shadow wall.

There was already someone waiting in front of the shadow wall, led by a young woman who was no more than twenty years old. Xun Qingran was thinking that this Mrs. Hou was so young, I don't know if it was the original match. The woman had already come over to pick up Fang's, and Grandma Xun also rushed over to greet her, calling her the third grandmother. Xun Qingran only then knew that this person was the wife of the third master of the Fang family.

Grandma Fang San was quite eloquent, and her mouth was not idle all the way.

"Although my sister-in-law is better than usual, she still can't leave the house, so she specially sent me to pick up my aunt's wife, grandmother and several younger sisters. Please don't be embarrassed, let's go to Enzhengju to talk. ”

"Mrs. Hou has been ill for more than a year, thanks to the fact that Mrs. Hou is a capable person, and she manages both inside and outside." Grandma Xun said.

"Where to use me for anything, it's just an errand from my sister-in-law and doing chores. Don't look at the sister-in-law's illness and can't get out of bed, the things up and down the house can't be put down for a moment. We often advise her to take care of her body, but my sister-in-law just doesn't listen. Those who know understand that she loves to worry. I don't know, I think we didn't do it properly, and my sister-in-law didn't worry about us, hehehe. ”

While talking, I walked through the corridor and passed through the courtyard, and I arrived at Enzheng Ju. Xun Qing saw that this courtyard was spacious and beautiful, and knew that it was the main courtyard of the Hou Mansion. As soon as everyone entered the courtyard, some people had already greeted them, some returned to the house, and some invited guests into the house with curtains. The girl and the woman do things in an orderly manner and silently. Xun Qingran praised in her heart, this Mrs. Hou has been ill for a long time, and the yard can still be so well-behaved, so she must be an expert in the family.

When they entered the house, they turned the screen and saw a woman sitting on a pillow on the couch in front of them, holding the hand of a middle-aged woman and talking. When the two of them saw the Fang clan come in, they both got down from the couch, and the woman made a gesture to salute the Fang clan.

Fang Clan hurriedly went over to help him, "Family flesh and blood, you are so sick, why be polite, sit down and rest." He and the middle-aged woman exchanged a common salute, one called Mrs. Gu and the other called Mrs. In-law.

It turned out that this woman was the grandmother of the Fang family, Mrs. Dingyuan Hou, and the person next to her was Grandma Fang's mother, Mrs. Zeng.

Xun Qingran looked carefully, Grandma Fang should be less than thirty years old, thin, weak, although the face is carefully decorated, but the eye sockets are sunken, the skin is saggy, and she is obviously a person who has been sick for a long time. Great-mother and Grandma Fang have four or five similar faces, and there is a wind and frost color on their faces.

"These are my sisters?" Grandma Fang pointed to Xun Qingran and asked.

Xun Qingran a few hurried over to greet the ceremony. Grandma Fang helped them up one by one with a smile, looked at them carefully one by one, and finally praised: "I only saw the fourth sister last time, and I thought that the fourth sister was so young, just like that, I don't know what the older sisters are like." When I saw it today, it was really all the national color and fragrance, and this beauty of the capital was going to be compared. Auntie is so blessed! ”

Everyone sat down, Grandma Fang pointed out one thing, and sent the third grandmother out.

Fang and Zeng's mother exchanged two words, only to know that Great-mother had just arrived in the capital.

"My lord only went to Beijing at the end of the year to report on his work, and I heard that Mrs. Hou was sick, and my lord and I were worried about not being able to eat or sleep. That's why I brought her two younger sisters to see her first. Great-mother said.

"I forgot." Grandma Fang smiled and ordered someone to invite the two girls of the Zeng family. “…… They are all here, and I am afraid that they will be too young and bored, so I let them go out to play. ”

After a while, someone brought the two girls of the Zeng family in, and everyone had to see each other again. The two girls of the Zeng family, the eldest is called Zeng Ning, who is fifteen years old, and the younger is Zeng Jing, who is only fourteen years old.

"Mrs. Xun, these girls are all the same people as the immortals, so they all want to get married." Great-mother's eyes swirled on Xun Qing's face, and she asked Fang with a smile.

"Only the eldest girl has decided on someone's house."

"Alas, I think the other three girls have also reached the age of kissing,...... Presumably because of Mrs. Xun's high vision. ”

"Where Mrs. Zeng is, it's just that the door is roughly the same, and the child knows how to be motivated." Fang didn't want to talk about this topic more, but Mrs. Zeng was very enthusiastic.

"If that's the case, I know some young people who are matching with a few cousins."

"Their sisters are still young, and I can't bear to let them marry early. It's two Ling Ai, with outstanding appearances, they must have already had a mother-in-law, right? ”

"They are still younger than the cousins, and I am even more reluctant." Great-mother said.

Fang Shi didn't ask anymore, and turned his head to ask about Grandma Fang's condition.

"It's just a matter of days." Grandma Fang sighed.

As soon as she said this, Zeng's mother was already crying, and the two little girls of the Zeng family also showed sadness, and they all took out handkerchiefs to wipe their tears. Fang's and Grandma Xun naturally persuaded again.

"It's a happy event that the girls will be together today, look at what is wrong with me." Grandma Fang said and instructed the people next to her, "Go and call all the brothers and sisters, today's guests at home don't need to go to school." ”

As she spoke, Grandma Fang suddenly yawned twice, and tears flowed down her nose. A few girls next to her came over and took out a handkerchief to help wipe it.

"Madame, it's time to take your medicine." A girl reminded.

"Yes, as I spoke, I forgot about it when I was happy. Let someone bring the medicine. Then he said to Fang's family, "Please take your aunt and sisters to sit here, and I'll take the medicine and come." ”

A few girls helped Grandma Fang turn the screen and lay down on the chaise longue over there. A big girl came in through the door with a tray. A delicate cloisonné box on the tray and an intricate object that looked seven or eight points similar to a hookah. The girl turned the screen with the tray, and after a while, a strange fragrance came from behind the screen.

Xun Qingran was shocked and instinctively covered her nose.
