The next day, Du Jinning had a rare lazy sleep, got up and washed up and had breakfast, still according to the usual rhythm of life, first punched once, then practiced words for half an hour, and then read and wrote articles.

She is unhurried here, but the rest of the Du family is not idle.

Yao Shuqi and Wang Fulai ran to the gate of the Gongyuan early in the morning and waited. Although Du Jinning said that there was no need to wait, no matter what the ranking, she could always get one, just wait at home for the officials to come and report the good news.

But where can Yao Shuqi and Wang Fulai sit at home? Anyway, the Du family has a simple population, and the inner house is managed by Aunt Zhu, and the outside business is handled by Zhuang Yue, Yao Shuqi basically revolves around Du Jinning and listens to her dispatch. Wang Fulai is even more in charge of catching the car. Today, Du Jinning plans to stay at home and not go anywhere, won't the two of them be idle? Naturally, I want to go to the gate of the Gongyuan to squat, so that I can know if my young master has to understand Yuan for the first time.

Chen is especially busy today, when she came home yesterday, she asked the woman who was needleworking at home to prepare clothes for Chen Li, and asked Du Fanghui to pick out jewelry for her.

"Don't keep your head down when you speak, you look pretty good, and you're not unsightly, why do you bury your head in your chest as soon as you speak? Raise your head and speak. ”

It is impossible to break a person's habits for more than ten years with only one night and one morning. As long as Chen Li didn't cower too much, Chen was satisfied.

After being satisfied, she dressed up Chen Li again, and she led Chen Li out.

Where to? Naturally, she went to Hulu Lane to be a guest at a wife's house who was good with her.

When Mrs. Li saw that Chen had brought a strange girl over, and she was not dressed as a maid, she was a little curious and asked, "This girl is ......?"

"This is my niece and sister." Chen smiled and introduced to Chen Li, "This is Mrs. Li. ”

In order to get rid of his pair of superb fathers and mothers, Chen Li can be said to have tried his best for a lifetime of courage. At this time, Aunt Zi took her out to meet guests, and she didn't know where to put her hands and feet. However, remembering her aunt's advice before going out, she still tried her best to call "Mrs. Li", although the voice was as small as a mosquito humming, but she finally called someone, and did not embarrass Chen too much.

Chen smiled and said, "She just came from the countryside and hasn't seen anything in the world, so she makes you laugh." ”

Mrs. Li usually has a good relationship with the Chen family, and she often moves around when she is fine, and she doesn't have so many scruples when she speaks.

While she instructed the maid to give Chen Li a greeting gift, she asked Chen, "When are you going back to the countryside?" Isn't your brother Ning taking the township exam? ”

Chen smiled and didn't speak, only picked up the teacup and drank tea.

Mrs. Li understood, turned her head to her eldest maid and said, "Miss Chen is here for the first time, you accompany her for a walk in the yard." ”

Chen Li listened, tightened his handkerchief, and looked at Chen at a loss.

Chen said softly to her: "Mrs. Li is like me and a sister, her home is my home, you can be at ease, don't be afraid." If you have anything, just tell this sister Zixuan. ”

Chen Li just nodded and followed Zixuan out.

Chen then said to Mrs. Li, "Where did I go back to the countryside?" It was my brother and sister-in-law who came from the countryside yesterday and sent her. ”

She came and went quietly when she returned to Lishui County, and everyone didn't know. Originally, when she went to Qi's house to live for two days, she told Mrs. Li that she was frightened by the arson that night, and went to live at her third daughter's house overnight. These housewives sometimes don't show up for days, and no one knows whether she's at home or where she's gone.

Mrs. Lee became more and more puzzled. didn't have his brother and sister-in-law coming, Chen left his brother and sister-in-law at home, and led his niece to the door.

She inquired vaguely, "Since your sister-in-law is here, why don't you bring her over?" So I can see you too. ”

Chen shook his head and smiled bitterly: "They went back early this morning. ”

She glanced at Mrs. Li and sighed, "Alas, you don't know. When I gave birth to my brother Ning, my mother was still alive. Because of the early death of my father-in-law, her old man was afraid that her brother and sister-in-law would not support me, so she insisted on giving my brother Ning and sister Li ......"

Speaking of this, she pointed out the door: "It's my niece." Ordered baby kisses for their two children. But later, my mother died, and I was in a difficult situation in the Du family, my brother and sister-in-law were not happy, and every time I mentioned this matter, they used various reasons to prevaricate me, and later said that the things of the year could not be done. ”

At this, she shook her head and sighed, her face full of bitterness.

Because he was afraid that Du Chensheng, Du Yunyi and others would make trouble and ruin the reputation of several children, the Chen family had already made friends with Mrs. Li and them, and under the instruction of Du Jinning, he intentionally or unintentionally told the Du family's idea. Mrs. Li knew what kind of hard life the Chen family had in the Du family a few years ago.

Seeing Chen like this at this time, Mrs. Li hurriedly patted her hand comfortingly and comforted: "Now you have come to the bitter end." Your brother Ning was in the top three in the first two exams, Xie Yuan is not a problem, and he is even more stable in lifting people, and you are the mother of lifting people. Don't think about the past. ”

"Not really." Chen squeezed out a smile, but before the smile reached the bottom of his eyes, he dispersed again, and his expression became sad again, "But my brother and sister-in-law just can't see me." No, I think I know that my brother Ning will be able to lift people soon, and I hurriedly sent Sister Li yesterday, saying that it was for our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to cultivate and cultivate feelings. ”

Mrs. Li was stunned: "They are ......"

"Isn't it? Seeing that my brother Ning has a future, he will soon be a master, so he hurried to recognize this family. I was afraid that I wouldn't recognize it, so I threw Sister Li into my house, and the couple left. He also shouted that if I didn't recognize this family, they would go to the examiner to make trouble, saying that my brother Ning was virtuous, treacherous, and hated the poor and loved the rich. ”

Mrs. Li looked at Chen sympathetically, and her brows slowly furrowed.

"You say I...... How did you meet such a pair of brothers and sisters-in-law? Chen covered his face with a handkerchief.

"Then you're going to admit it?" Mrs. Li disagreed, "In my opinion, you shouldn't pay attention to them." How can there be such a thing! If there is good, you will come to dip, and if there is no good, you will run far. When you were so bullied in your in-laws' house, they didn't say a word to help you say a few words, to support your orphans and widows. What do you do with such a person? Marry his daughter, and they will be like flies from now on, unable to drive away, and I don't know how much benefit they will take from you. ”

Mrs. Li also had selfish intentions in saying this. Seeing that Du Jinning is a young man, he can be expected to enter the Shi, and he is no longer the original little showman. is such a good marriage partner, Mrs. Li wants to give him her daughter, but she can't be taken up by the Chen family, a baby kiss that suddenly appeared.
