Chapter 24: Toys

The fourth young master got off the sedan chair at the door, and deliberately turned around to wait for Lin Shuang to enter the house together, he asked Gu's mother to put Lin Shuang on the big kang in the warm pavilion of the west room, and Zhang Luo girl looked for toys to bring food.

A fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl came over with a vine carapace, which was filled with wooden carved ponies, rattles, jade wrenches, marbles and other gadgets, and the girl smiled and said, "Fourth young master, all these things you asked the slave to find are here." ”

The fourth young master pushed Teng Luo in front of Lin Shuang and said, "These are all for you to play with." ”

As he spoke, he took out an egg-sized piece of amber from the vine and showed it to Lin Shuang: "Look, there's a bug in here." ”

Lin Shuang took it and took a look, this amber was crystal clear, the beetle inside was brightly colored, and the tentacles were well preserved, which was a very rare good thing.

Lin Shuang lay on the edge of the vine and watched the fourth young master introduce her treasured toys to her one by one, these toys are all kinds of children's play, but fortunately there are no rag dolls or anything like that.

After a while, the girl brought the medicine over to the fourth young master to drink, and after drinking the medicine, she took a maroon red pill the size of a peanut, and suddenly the whole warm pavilion was filled with a smell of medicine.

After the fourth young master finished taking the medicine, he sat on the other end of the kang table and read a book, Lin Shuang saw that the cover of the book read "Four Books Annotated Collection", and it was expected that it should not be a leisure book.

Lin Shuang took out the toys in the vine one by one and put them on the kang table to play with, and after playing for a while, she fell asleep, yawning and falling on the kang, startling the fourth young master and the girl who was waiting next to her.

At noon, Lin Shuang fell asleep and didn't catch the second wife's lunch, and when she woke up, she found that she was already in her room. Chunya, who was guarding the side, saw that Lin Shuang woke up, and hurriedly asked Qiushi to go next door to call her mother.

Gu's mother helped her pack up the gifts she received next door, the paintings given by the young masters and young ladies yesterday were hung up, and the other gold and silver jewelry and fabrics were put away and locked in a small box.

Gu's mother went to Lin Shuang's bedroom and complained while dressing her: "Fourth grandmother, why did you fall asleep, the second wife asked you to have lunch together." ”

Lin Shuang let her fiddle with her soft hands and feet, and replied softly in her mouth: "Sleepy."

Gu's mother looked at her glutinous rice dumpling-like little person, and there was no relatives around to take care of her, but she didn't cry or make trouble, which was really painful, and she felt the need to guide her well.

Gu's mother dressed her in clothes and pants, hugged Lin Shuang in her arms and whispered to her: "The fourth young master saw that you were asleep, let the old slave not wake you up, the fourth young master is really a kind and good child." Fourth grandma, this is your blessing. ”

Lin Shuang looked at her with big black eyes, and Gu's mother continued: "The fourth young master thinks about you, and you also have to think about his goodness." You see other people's little daughters-in-law, you have to set rules in the morning and evening, serving your mother-in-law and husband to live and eat, when you come here, why does the second wife allow you to eat at the table together, and reward you with a new hat? ”

Lin Shuang thought to herself: Because I am young and can't stand steadily, how can I serve them for daily life and food.

Gu's mother couldn't hear her heart, hugged her little body and shook it affectionately, and said with an envious smile on her face: "You, good fate, Qiu Shenxian said that you are a heavenly pardon star, a lucky star, sure enough, as soon as you enter the door, the fourth young master is much better, and he can eat, the second wife is happy, and allows you to eat together, that is a great grace." Otherwise, by your origin......"

Mother Gu looked at Lin Shuang's immature little face, thought about it, and felt that she still had to say it tactfully: "In short, you have to find a way to make the fourth young master better, the fourth young master is good, you are in the Bofu, understand?" ”

Gu's mother wholeheartedly thought that the fourth young master was good, but her words were indeed good to Lin Shuang, Lin Shuang still understood this truth, but she didn't know if a three-year-old child should understand it.

Lin Shuang pretended to be ignorant and nodded, causing Gu's mother to hug her and shake her lovingly.

Miss the second wife's lunch at noon, Lin Shuang could only eat hot egg porridge when she got up. After eating the porridge, Lin Shuang asked Gu's mother, "Has the fourth young master eaten?" ”

Gu's mother was very happy to see that Lin Shuang knew how to care about the fourth young master, but when she thought that the fourth young master had only eaten a little bit at noon, she smiled again.

"The fourth young master doesn't eat much, and now he's working hard in the study."

Lin Shuang asked, "Can I go to the fourth young master to play?" ”

Gu's mother hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Fourth grandmother, the fourth young master is going to take the top prize, you can't bother him when he is reading......"

Before Gu's mother finished speaking, a pretty voice asked outside the door, "Fourth grandmother is awake?" ”

Qiu Shi replied to her outside: "Sister Shu'er, the fourth grandmother has woken up, and Gu's mother just fed her porridge." ”

Gu's mother heard the voice of the eldest girl who was waiting in the fourth young master's room, and hurriedly got up to open the door.
