Chapter 338: Kang Ping
Xing Shuang naturally wouldn't waste space and deliberately built such a large flower hall. She smiled and said to Tanchun: "The oldest of you is only ten years old now, and you should have had normal communication a long time ago." I didn't take you out before, but it was because I was too busy. In addition, you have no place to entertain, and if you invite someone to come, you will have nowhere to play.
"Now this flower hall is bigger, and it is also convenient for you to entertain guests. In the future, if you have a good close friend, you can also post from time to time to invite someone to play.
"It's the same pattern on that side as here, and I think the four of you are all stretching your bodies, and it must be dishonest to sleep this night. If you kick me and I punch you again, won't you get up in the morning and make a joke?
"Therefore, the upper rooms of the east and west houses are where your sisters sit and lie on weekdays. The big girls can live in the side room, which is convenient for personal care. As for the rough maids, they live in your old courtyard. Open it up, and use it as an outer courtyard, and then set up a hall, separated from the inside and outside, and you are not afraid that someone will break into you by mistake. ”
Tanchun asked again: "But Sister Zhen and Yun Yatou also come to live from time to time, where do they live?" ”
Xing Shuang smiled: "It's not in a hurry, you can talk about it after you read it." ”
After speaking, after the girls finished reading the upper room here, they followed Xing Shuang out of the courtyard on the east side, entered the Yongdao, did not go to the west side, but walked a few steps forward, which is a small hugging building.
There are also eight large and small rooms, with an inner ear room and even a small pantry.
After reading it, the girls all said that the place was too big, and there was no need to waste it so much.
Xing Shuang said again: "You only think about the now, it is lively and convenient to live together, but you don't want to think about how to distribute the house if it is bigger and everyone has more things?"
"Today your paintings are in my way, and tomorrow your books occupy my bed. Can you get into a fight? I have now set up a room for each of you, and a room for each of you, so that you may have a place to read and write, and each of you will arrange it according to your preference, and no one will hinder the other.
"And the houses on the east and west sides are only a corridor away, looking at the distance between two walls, compared to the original courtyard, in fact, it is about the same distance. I only have a deep affection for your sisters, can it be that you can't be separated by two walls? ”
As soon as the girls thought about it, they didn't say much, and as Xing Shuang finished the entire new courtyard, they all came up to thank him.
Xing Shuang said with a smile: "Now I have to move it, and I have to tear down the wall to make another hall." Fortunately, after the New Year, your third brother will also move to the outer courtyard, so you will go back to the West Chamber to live for a few days. Once everything is in place, it's never too late to move in. ”
Tanchun hurriedly asked: "Why don't you move here directly, just let the rough maid live outside." ”
Xing Shuang poked her forehead and said coquettishly: "You, that new thing in a day's net map." This demolition of the wall to build the hall requires craftsmen to build. It's all foreign men who come and go. Aren't you afraid that your grandmother will find out and blame it? Even if your grandmother doesn't blame you, I'm afraid of your grandmother's mouth. ”
The girls laughed when they heard this, and when they thought that their grandmother was so powerful, that even someone like their mother had cleaned it up, they felt very happy.
Enough laughter, the girls went back to Qingyou Courtyard to pack their luggage, and Xing Shuang also went back to Qingyuan to ask the maids to pack up the West Chamber, and wait for the girls to move in.
And at this moment, Mrs. Xing is showing Wang her treasure, an extremely precious Su embroidered double-sided embroidered kang screen.
This kang screen is embroidered with the appearance of pandas eating bamboo, Suzhou embroidery has always had the characteristics of "flat, qi, harmonious, light, smooth, even". The whole embroidery looks smooth and flat, and there is no trace of unevenness. It is a double-sided pattern with different styles, and Wang can't take his eyes off it.
"Such a good thing, why shouldn't my sister-in-law make a dowry when she gets married?" Wang was puzzled in his heart, looked at Mrs. Xing, and only felt puzzled.
When her sister-in-law entered the door to show her dowry, she mocked it well. If there was this screen, it was only this one, and she was too embarrassed to speak.
Old Mrs. Xing snorted and said dissatisfiedly, "Didn't she take it enough?" Her sister is almost going to be at home for the rest of her life, and she still wants to take this, it's a pipe dream. This is when I left the palace, the Empress Dowager rewarded me.
"This is also something that follows me everywhere, but the queen lady invited me later, and I just wanted to find another errand, so I temporarily pressed this kang screen in the pawnshop. When he came out of the Su family, he redeemed it again. This kang screen has been with me for a lifetime, and if I am taken away by her, I will really live in vain. ”
Wang sighed slightly in his heart, and his sister-in-law was actually pitiful. If Mrs. Xing felt sorry for her and took this kang screen as a dowry, her sister-in-law's life would not be so sad at the beginning.
But distressed is distressed, and she is not good at ignoring other people's family affairs, so she only smiled and said: "I don't think my sister-in-law looks like that kind of person, but she was in a different situation at that time." If you want to marry into a wealthy house, you naturally have to have something to support your face.
Besides, she won't also pull her in-laws in the future, it's not true that she doesn't care about her mother's life or death. And she also sincerely repented, her aunt didn't know, and her sister-in-law treated me very well, and often told me that she didn't understand sisterhood when she was young. Now that I am married, I want to make up for it, but I finally feel that it hurts people's hearts, and I am afraid that it is just in vain.
"To put it mildly, my sister-in-law treats me like a sister. Even though I'm older, I'm always taken care of by her. If this family didn't have her, I'm afraid it wouldn't be as good as it is today. ”
Mrs. Xing didn't seem to believe it when she heard it, and sneered from her nose again: "I knew this was the case, what did I do before?" Her two younger sisters almost died lonely because she took away all the belongings in the family, and she couldn't get married from now on. But I see, you're a pretty good one. You still speak for someone like her. ”
Wang's face was slightly hot when Mrs. Xing said this.
She said in her heart that this old lady Xing didn't know what she had done before, and it seemed that her sister-in-law didn't tell her mother's family, otherwise this old lady Xing would never be able to say such a thing.
Wang sighed in his heart for a while, and there was nothing wrong with seeing people's hearts for a long time.
In the past, her sister-in-law was close to her, and she still had doubts, but she looked at it after all these years. My sister-in-law has shed tears for the grievances she has suffered, but I am afraid that she will not have it in front of the eldest brother.
And the sister-in-law's own mother said this, which shows that the sister-in-law really wants to treat her like a sister, and there is no double-facedness, while treating herself very well, she complains to her mother's family.
The Wang family was still repenting, and suddenly heard Mrs. Xing say: "I am very close to your child, so I might as well give you this kang screen." ”
