Ni told Mrs. Li a little goodbye, and then said the Penglai scenery again, Li also accosted on the side, when not much to say, Mrs. Li suddenly seemed to remember something, patted her forehead, and said: "Ah, look at my memory, there is something I haven't told you yet, such a mess almost forgot." ”

Ni asked, "What does the old lady want to say?" ”

Old Madam Li didn't speak at first, only looked at Li with a smile, and after a while, Fang said slowly: "Your husband's family is here." ”

This is not a new thing, the Guogong Mansion sent someone to take a look, which is also the proper meaning of the question, Li got up and asked, "But I don't know which mother came?" Where is it now? ”

Old Madam Li had a smile on her face, but her eyes flashed slightly, and she said, "It's not only my mother who came, but also two girls' families." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone, including Ni's, was stunned.

Old man Li's words sound strange, why in addition to the housekeeper's mother, what other girls' families come to visit?

Where is this etiquette?

Li opened his mouth to speak, but Mrs. Li smiled and waved her hand, and said: "I won't play dumb riddles with you anymore, I already know the mother who came, it is the Naluo family, only that girl has an extraordinary background, it is your two nieces and nephews, one in your husband's house, one is two, one is four." ”

The room fell silent all of a sudden.

The second and fourth girls of the Guogong Mansion are sisters Chen Xiang and Chen Han.

Why did the two of them come to Jinan?

If you think about this matter carefully, it is not difficult to perceive the strangeness.

For a while, everyone in the room had different expressions, but no one spoke.

Chen Ying also frowned at this time.

No matter why the two sisters came, just because Chen Han appeared in this family, it can be imagined that in the future, they will definitely not be able to live in peace.

Li Shixian was stunned by the news, and after being stunned for a while, he woke up like a dream, and said, "Yo", "Yo, why did the second girl and the fourth girl come over?" What's going on? ”

Mrs. Li briefly explained the matter.

It turned out that the Chen Xiang sisters suddenly arrived in Jinan ten days ago, and they were escorted by Chen Li, the fourth master of the Guogong Mansion, and Chen Li also brought a letter from the grandfather of the country and the old lady Xu.

Mrs. Xu was very polite in the letter, only saying that she had heard of the Li family's poetry and rites in Jinan for a long time, and that there had always been a women's school in the clan, and Shandong was a place where personal literature gathered, so she sent two granddaughters who were not successful to study in the Li family's women's school.

At the end of the letter, Mrs. Xu said lightly, "Sanlang's daughter-in-law has always been in poor health, and now she is recuperating at home, and now she is in a coma all day, and she is afraid of delaying the upbringing of several girls, so she sent her two granddaughters to study Li", and finally politely expressed her apologies, and said, "I took the liberty to come", and asked Mrs. Li Haihan Yunyun.

At that time, Chen Xiang and Chen Han stood under the hall of this Ruizao Hall, watching Mrs. Li read the letter, even if Mrs. Li knew that there was a problem here, she couldn't do such a thing as driving people away on the spot, so she could only place the two of them, and it was not easy to place them casually, but they had to be treated with anger.

Fortunately, there is a mother Luo on this trip, she is the Li family's companion, Mrs. Li and she have also been the master and servant for many years, the details of the Chen Xiang sisters suddenly arrived in Jinan, Mrs. Li can ask her.

It's just that, for some reason, the old man didn't say it explicitly in the hall, only vaguely.

In addition, Mrs. Li also said that Chen Li, the fourth master of the Guogong Mansion, was very polite, and only rested at Li's house for one night, so he said that he was going to go outside to find old friends, and he went to Shengjing by the way, and left the next day. Before leaving, Chen Li took out another letter, but it was handed over to the Li family by Mrs. Xu.

“…… And the letter shall be received with me, and in a moment it shall be brought to thee." Mrs. Li was a little thirsty, and while drinking tea with a teacup, she said the same, which can be regarded as the end of this story.

Li Shi had mixed feelings in his heart at this time, but his face was still very calm, and he only lowered his eyebrows and said, "It's bothering the old lady." ”

Chen Xiang and Chen Han were sent to Shandong, the reason is self-evident, they must have been unable to stay in Shengjing City and came out to avoid the limelight. And the reason why Mrs. Xu did not choose the Grange, but chose Jinan Mansion, is still a warning.

If it weren't for Li's insistence on taking Chen Jun's brothers and sisters to visit relatives, Chen Xiang's sisters would not have followed. Mrs. Xu is holding two big living people to remind her in-laws. At the same time of reminding, her old man sent Luo's mother over, which was a sign of leniency, intended to tell Li that she could live in Jinan for a few days, and the Guogong Mansion did not mind.

This is the means of the princess, a combination of rigidity and softness, which is both touching and exciting.

At this moment, hearing what Li said, Mrs. Li smiled calmly: "What's the bother? I was worried that there were few people in my family and it wasn't lively enough, but now that it's better, I'm not afraid that no one will talk to me to relieve my boredom. ”

At this point, she seemed to remember something again, and said, "There is another thing I forgot to mention. As soon as the Hunan girls came, I sent someone to deliver a letter to you, but at that time you should have been on the road, and you didn't receive the letter, which is also unfortunate. Besides, the Luo family has been a little unaccustomed to the soil and water in the past few days, I ordered her to lie down and recuperate, and when she is well, it will not be too late for you to see each other again. ”

Seeing that Mrs. Li had arranged everything properly, Li only felt that her mother was still intimate, and at the same time she was ashamed, so she lowered her head and said: "It's really hard old lady, my daughter is not good, let the old lady worry about it day by day." ”

These words caused Mrs. Li's eyes to turn red, and her heart was even slightly sour, and she sighed: "You kid, you are a serious person." Relatives should have walked around more often, so why bother not to bother. Besides, those two girls are also well-behaved, and now they are in school, and they will be able to see them when they disperse for a while. ”

This was said leniently, but Li was still very sad in his heart, and always felt that he had caused trouble to his mother's family, but fortunately Ni saw the opportunity quickly, and hurriedly pulled Li Ke and Chen Jun out, saying that the two of them are now practicing martial arts, and Li Ke is used to telling jokes, until the old lady Li laughed, and the scene came over.

At this moment, a maid in a red jacket walked in with a curtain and reported respectfully: "The two cousins are out of school." ”

With her words, two people turned out from behind the screen, it was Chen Xiang and Chen Han.

Both of them are wearing skirts with blue water today, combing rings, hairpins and beads, embroidered beads under their feet, dressed like a pair of sisters.
