Chapter 300: Aunt Xiao

In the next few days, the door of the Pillow Frost House was never opened, and even the Li family visited several times, but Chen Shao blocked the door.

Chen Shaotuo told Mrs. Xu and the Li family that they were a little tired recently, so they had to rest and rest, and they didn't want outsiders to disturb them.

This is actually the norm, his illness should be quiet and not moving, he is willing to recuperate behind closed doors, and everyone does not suspect him, and no one dares to talk about it in private.

In the Guogong Mansion, the three words "second master" are absolutely taboo, and even the masters of each house dare not discuss it, and the servants below dare not chew the root of their tongues.

Chen Shao's recuperation, the Li family made time, so he picked up the affairs of the Mingfeng Pavilion, Chen Ying had a few days to relax, so he took out a lot of silver, sent people to the bookstore outside to buy a large number of books, and then sent them to the girls' school.

When she was in Jinan, she had already bought a lot of books to build a library at the girls' school. It's just that the books in the Great Chu Dynasty are not interconnected, and the books that can be bought here in Shengjing cannot be bought in Jinan, so Chen Ying launched her book purchase plan while there was nothing to do in the past few days.

She also has an unplanned plan: when she has the opportunity in the future, she will definitely go to every corner of the Great Chu Dynasty, collect all kinds of books, and make sure to build the library of Quancheng Girls' School into the largest library of the Great Chu Dynasty.

Naturally, judging from the current situation, the pitiful collection of books in the girls' school is not even comparable to other people's private libraries.

In addition to being busy buying books, Chen Ying also often went to see Li, using various reasons and methods to resolve her worries, Chen Jun also often talked with his mother, and bought a lot of new gadgets to coax her to laugh.

With a pair of children carefully accompanied, the Li family is finally not so melancholy, and his appetite is much better than before.

Once, Chen Ying went over to chat with the Li family, and the two of them talked about the green shirt that Chen Shao cherished very much.

In fact, since leaving the Pillow Frost House, Chen Shao's picture of looking at the old robe with nostalgia has been deeply imprinted in Chen Ying's heart, and it will not linger.

She herself felt strange and couldn't understand why she cared so much about it, and it was unbelievable that she remembered such an almost negligible detail.

For this reason, when talking about this topic, she told the matter and asked Li: "Does my mother know the reason?" ”

Hearing this, Li's face showed an extremely gentle look, and said, "I also have the impression of that dress, it is Aunt Xiao...... I sewed it for your father with my own hands. ”

Chen Ying was slightly stunned.

Aunt Xiao is Chen Shao's biological mother.

She was originally Mrs. Xu's roommate, and she was raised to be an aunt shortly after Mrs. Xu gave birth to her eldest son. I heard that she was not in good health, and Chen Shao died of illness when she was five years old.

Li sighed, his voice was stunned, and he continued: "I heard your father say that Aunt Xiao knew that time was running out, so she forced her sick body to sew this dress for him, which was sewn by the size of Grandpa Guo, and it was really a mother's heart. Your father has always kept that dress, and he wore it a few times when he was in the examination for talent and lifting. Later, as the years wore on, my clothes were eaten by insects, and I mended them for him, and I remember embroidering a few bamboo leaves on them. ”

It turned out that what was carried on the old clothes was Chen Shao's thoughts about his biological mother.

Chen Ying nodded, and the floor-covered green shirt appeared in his mind.

Indeed, at the corners of the green shirt, there are indeed several bamboo leaves, and the silk threads on it are also a little old, which should be the stitches of the Li family back then.

It's just that Chen Shao's expression at that time didn't feel like he was mourning the deceased, the look of attachment was too strong, not so much admiration, but a pilgrimage.

That Aunt Xiao, does she really have such a strong personality?

His thoughts turned to this, and Chen Ying didn't continue to think about it.

This was only a very small thing, and the answer given by Li was very reasonable, and Chen Ying's attention was again focused on expanding the library's collection.

Not long after the book was sent, Chen Xiang sent a letter, saying that the books had been received, and that she and Chen Han now go to the girls' school every day. Because Chen Ying was very well prepared, they went smoothly in class. Later, Chen Xiang detailed the students' performance in various subjects, and these alone were enough to write five large pieces of letterhead.

Chen Ying always felt that Chen Xiang had the potential to be a teacher, and if the greetings at the beginning and end of this letter were put aside, it would be a complete survey report on students' grades in various subjects.

Chen Han also put a note in the letter, briefly greeted Chen Ying and her family well, and then listed more than a dozen physical problems.

This course was taught by her, although Chen Ying's lesson plan was written in detail, but there were some contents that she could understand as a modern person, but Chen Han, an ancient little girl, couldn't understand it, so she asked it together.

Reading their letters, Chen Ying finally put her mind at ease.

The girls' school is operating normally, and Chen Han even discussed with her about physics, she felt that this day was so smooth that people wanted to sing.

Time passed in a hurry, and it was May 27 in the blink of an eye. This is the best day of the whole month of May, when it is good for marriage, travel, sacrifice, and trade.

Chen Pu's wedding was on this day.

Chen Ying got up early that day, finished her homework in advance, and as soon as she finished freshening up, Luo's mother came over, urging her to change into a newly cut dress, and then chose two pieces of jewelry to wear, and after cleaning up, she was driven to Mingyuan Hall by Luo's mother.

Today's Guogong Mansion, everywhere is full of lights, everyone is smiling, lively to ten points, the servants who come and go walk with the wind, especially the water Jianxuan in the long room, almost surrounded by the festive color, Xu's is even more people are in good spirits on happy occasions, and the whole person is a little brighter.

The sixth girl, Chen Yuan and a few other young people, can rarely have fun, and the elders don't care too much, they are so happy that they gather in front of the door of Nayi, saying that they want to have a good life to see the bride.

The eldest of them is Chen Qing, in fact, her playfulness is no worse than those little ones, but she is afraid that she will be laughed at by others in them, so she pulls Chen Ying with her.

Chen Ying was very helpless, standing under a row of flowers and trees behind the Yimen and shook her head, and said: "You came too early, the sedan chair to welcome the relatives has not left the house yet, and all the guests who came at this time are congratulatory guests, and there is no bride to see." ”

All the women laughed when they heard this, Chen Qing held his mouth and said, "If there is no bride to see, just look at the guests." ”

People come and go inside and outside the Yimen, it is indeed very lively, the little girls are detained ruthlessly, and everyone feels fresh and looks at it with relish.

"Why don't you go and see the big brother?" There was a sound of talking.

Chen Ying was slightly startled, turned her head to look, and saw a beautiful face.

It turned out to be Chen Lu.
