Chapter 65: What's the Use of Keeping?
Li Qin arrived the earliest, and accompanied Mrs. Fu to say a few words, and Mrs. Liu Er and others also arrived, and even Chen Yanqing, who had not seen it before, also appeared. It's just that Chen Yanqing looks a little tired, and he doesn't know what he's been busy with recently.
Li Qin saluted in turn, and then sat down obediently, waiting for Old Madam Fu to speak.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Mrs. Fu said: "I came to you today, I have something to say, and I think someone already knows about it, but I still bring everyone together to talk about it." ”
Mrs. Fu paused, and then said: "Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, in previous years, the prefect held a dragon boat race in Crescent Lake, but our family has never participated in it, and we have never gone to see it. This year, the prefect also held a dragon boat race, the prefect's wife has sent a post over, the position is reserved for us, I think I can't refute people every year, this year it happens that Yun'er and Bang'er are at home, let's go together to see, what do you think? ”
Mrs. Liu hurriedly said: "Mother is naturally thoughtful, and it should be so, and blame me, I read the post before, thinking that we had never participated in it before, so I didn't take it seriously, so I didn't tell my mother about it." ”
But I thought in my heart, the old lady has never loved these, and she hasn't mentioned this for several years, so why do you want to join in this fun this year.
Old Madam Fu said: "It's not in the way, I also accidentally thought that the two boys were going to end in the autumn for a long time, and now they should be relaxed and relaxed, they can't be so tense all the time!" ”
"What my mother said was that I was running out of thoughts." Mrs. Liu said.
"Grandmother Xie, I really haven't seen a dragon boat race in several years! The last time I watched it, it seemed like it was when I was 10 years old! Chen Yanbang immediately took it and said.
Speaking of playing, Chen Yanqing also came to the spirit, and said directly: "No, at that time, the fourth brother, you deceived the sugar man I secretly bought!" ”
"As long as you have a good memory, you remember everything! If you meet the candy buyer tomorrow, I will give you a few more, so that you don't have to remember it every day! Chen Yanbang joked with a smile.
"I can remember this, I still remember that the third brother led me and Chong'er, and the second sister and you led the little sister......" Chen Yanqing said, paused, and then continued: "We went out together, but in the end, the two of us ran out!" ”
The atmosphere in the room was very harmonious, and there was no cold scene or anything because of Chen Yanqing's words. Only Chen Yanzhong was still looking at his brothers, but he didn't know what he was thinking at this time.
Chen Yanbang looked left and right, then looked at Li Qin, and then asked, "Cousin, I wonder if you have ever seen the dragon boat?" ”
Li Qin was thinking about it, after not seeing this Chen Yanqing for a few days, it seemed that he looked a lot better. But in case someone would ask him about this, he first subconsciously looked at Mrs. Fu, and saw that the other party was smiling gently. Li Qin said: "It seems that no, I was often sick when I was young, and my mother rarely let me go out, and no one took me with me when I grew up!" ”
It seemed that he thought of the woman who caressed him gently, and Li Qin's heart felt uncomfortable for a moment.
Chen Yanbang originally saw that Li Qin was looking at Chen Yanqing, and he smiled gently, so he couldn't help but want to interrupt. But I didn't think that I actually chose the worst topic, and I was a little caught off guard for a while.
Old Madam Fu's face changed slightly, and she glared at Chen Yanbang fiercely. Chen Yanbang's face was embarrassed, now it's okay, the two brothers are honestly settled.
Chen Yanyun smiled gently, and then said: "Then it just so happens that Li Jiamei can take a good look at the excitement tomorrow, I heard that the person who wins the first place every year still has a lottery to win, and it will be very lively." ”
Li Qin was sad for a moment, and then adjusted, and when he saw Chen Yanyun say this, he said: "Then I have good eyes, and I must see the excitement." ”
The two chatted a few words easily around the dragon boat race, which resolved the embarrassment in the flower hall, and Mrs. Fu nodded secretly, but she was thinking about another thing in her heart.
A few people in the house were chatting, and Mrs. Fu looked at everyone, and said as if she had a feeling: "Call the six girls back tomorrow, it's rare to celebrate the festival, and they happen to be here again, and our family is so lively." ”
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and when she reacted, she stood up and said, "What my mother said is that my daughter-in-law will send someone to pick up the six girls back." ”
Even if Second Mrs. Liu is unwilling, Old Madam Fu has already said everything, is it difficult to ask Old Madam Fu to take back Fang Cai's words?
There was no sound of everyone talking, and a girl happened to come and say that lunch was ready.
As long as she is in Zhaohui Hall, Mrs. Fu will inevitably stay for dinner, and this time is naturally no exception, but some people don't use this meal very well.
During the banquet, Mrs. Liu didn't seem to have much appetite and ate very little.
After the meal, there was a girl with tea, and the brothers of the Chen family retired and went back, and Huang's mother saw that Li Qin did not move, so she took the tea bowl and handed it to Li Qin.
Li Qin shook his head and signaled that he didn't need to, although Huang's mother didn't understand why, she didn't say anything, put down the tea bowl, took a step back, and stood away. Li Qin looked at Huang's mother, but didn't say anything after all.
Mrs. Fu, who sat at the top, couldn't stand it anymore, put down the tea bowl and said, "You girls don't drink tea, and you, as the housekeeper of the first courtyard, specialize in serving the girl, and you don't even know this?" ”
Mother Huang didn't expect the old lady to suddenly say this, and immediately defended: "Old lady, the old slave forgot it when he was old, and he didn't remember it, but I remembered the old slave when you mentioned it, and the old lady forgives me!" ”
Old Madam Fu said: "Since you are old, then you can rest!" You don't have to wait there, girl! ”
Mother Huang didn't prevent the old lady Fu from saying this, and immediately knelt down and begged: "The old slave knows that he is wrong, and begs the old lady to punish the slave and maid, and begs the old lady to punish the slave and maid...... The girl can't leave the old slave! ”
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she was a little weak and didn't dare to look at the old lady, and turned her eyes to look at Li Qin, what did she tell the old lady? It's just how did she know?
Li Qin thought it was funny, and Huang's mother didn't know where she got her confidence, when she couldn't leave her, she didn't know.
Old Madam Fu sneered: "Can't leave? A good sentence can't do without you! Then let me ask you, since you are a girl and can't drink tea, where is the tea that you gave to your girl before? If you answer my question, I'll get around you! ”
Huang's mother was asked for a while, but she couldn't speak.
Old Madam Fu continued: "By the way, you are telling me, how did you get the clothes on your body, the jewelry you are wearing, and the new house you bought for your son a few days ago?" ”
At this point, everyone knew that Old Madam Fu was prepared. It's just that they all looked at Huang's mother in disbelief, there is such a subordinate in the Chen family?
Second Mrs. Liu secretly scolded Huang's mother for being stupid, glanced at Lan Xi reproachfully, and then didn't look at Huang's mother. Why didn't you find out before, what is the use of such a stupid person?
