Chapter 597: Pampering (I)

In this way, each child has to buy a private property of nearly 10,000 taels of silver, plus the cost of the wedding, Xu Sijie is good to say, Xu Siyu is the eldest son, the first child to marry in the fourth room, how can it cost four or five thousand taels, Xu Sizhen is the son of the world, I am afraid that the cost will be doubled, three children, at least 50,000 taels, and the previous sister Zhen'er, and the later brother Jin'er...... Looks like this guy is really worth something!

Eleven Niang slandered in her heart, and asked Zhu Xiang to hand over the items needed for Xu Siyu's new house one by one to Mr. Bai, who sent the steward to buy them, and in mid-June, the new house was cleaned up. Thinking that the new ceremony was still early, the weather was hot, and everyone was a little careless, she also discussed Xu Siyu's wedding with the mothers in charge.

Brother Jin has been obsessed with rowing since March 3, and he has to go there every other day. When the weather gets hotter, you can only go early and late, and in June, it is very hot to go early and late, and Brother Jin is often so hot that he sweats profusely, and his snow-white skin is red, but he is still very stubborn to go boating. Eleven Niang's heart moved, and asked Xu Lingyi to tell Brother Jin to swim.

Xu Lingyi readily agreed.

Eleven Niang only left a few elderly mothers-in-law to work as errands in Liufangwu, helping to do some cleaning and other things, and serving the tea and fruits of the two of them on the side.

The water blew through Biyi Lake, bringing a hint of coolness, and she sat in the pavilion reading a book or doing a few needles and threads.

In just three or four days, Brother Jin learned to swim, and when Xu Lingyi threw away his hand to let him swim by himself, he swam towards the Lingqiong Villa where the trees were rippling.

Xu Lingyi was taken aback, and it took half a cup of tea to catch the person.

went ashore and shook his head at Shi Niang: "No, Brother Jin is too bold, I have to find two little guys to serve him by his side in advance." ”

Eleven Niang hurriedly wrapped Brother Jin with a big handkerchief, and said with a smile: "It is not suitable for the older ones in the inner courtyard, and I am afraid that I will not be able to see them when I am young." ”

"I know what to do." Xu Lingyi didn't think so, and within two days, she found two twelve or thirteen-year-old girls to follow Brother Jin'er.

Seeing that the two children had dark skin, round bodies, and were as strong as calves, but their eyes were very pure, they couldn't help nodding secretly.

Mr. Bai, who brought the children in, knew that Eleven Niang looked at Brother Jin very closely, and taught her everything herself, for fear that she would dislike the two children for being rude, so he hurriedly explained: "Master Hou said, only let me play with me, and when I reach the age of studying, I will change my understanding of etiquette and follow me with me." These two, although they were said to have grown up on the grange, are very flexible with their hands and feet, and their temperament is also honest. Since his great-grandfather's generation, he has been working in the Xu family on an errand day, and his parents are also honest people, so he will definitely accompany the sixth young master well. ”

Or the extremes of things must be reversed. Eleven Niang herself went to the Peiyou class very early, and her childhood memories are all about the classroom and the pleasant teacher. When I came to Brother Jin'er, I hoped that he could enjoy life without worries. Although he stares at him closely, he is mostly used to cultivate good living habits.

"Let Mr. Bai bother." Eleven Niang accepted the two children with a smile, "When Brother Jin is enlightened, I'm afraid that I will have to trouble Manager Bai to help find two more little girls." ”

Mr. Bai breathed a sigh of relief.

Although it was ordered by the Hou Ye, Mrs. did not agree, and this matter must be repeated.

He smiled and said yes, said some kind words, and got up to take his leave.

Eleven Niang recruited two children to come over for questioning.

The two children, one named Huang Damao and the other Liu Erwu, are naïve with a bit of childish wit, unlike some small servants who enter the house on errands, although they are young, they have a lot of calmness that only adults have.

She nodded secretly, called Brother Jin in to introduce them to each other, and the three of them quickly played together, leaving Brother Xu'er aside.

Gu's mother was afraid that Huang Damao and Liu Erwu would not understand the rules, so she stayed aside inch by inch.

Brother Jin is having more and more fun. Swimming, boating, picking lotus flowers, climbing trees, playing tops, digging bugs, playing in the mud...... Either their clothes were torn or they were covered in mud. But Eleven Niang didn't say anything except carefully wash her hands every time. Gu's mother was so anxious that she was sweating. Seeing that Brother Xu'er was having fun happily following behind, he hurriedly called Brother Xu'er's nurse over: "Our young master is allowed by his wife, and the seventh young master is there, I'm afraid that it will take five ladies to do it." Otherwise, this mud and sweat will not be easy to deal with when you go back. ”

Brother Xu'er's nurse smiled bitterly.

Xu Lingyi told Brother Jin to swim in the water, and Brother Xu'er also shouted to learn after he went back. But Xu Lingyi couldn't take two children alone, and Xu Lingkuan couldn't hold his breath and stopped doing it after teaching twice. The fifth lady had no choice, and she couldn't let anyone else enter the inner courtyard, so she had to send the child to the red light alley. Brother Xu'er had a lot of fun over there. The fifth lady wanted her son, so she took Brother Cheng to live there for half a month, and just returned home with Brother Xu.

The two children often play together, and the two nurses naturally have more contact, and they are both signed living deeds, so they are naturally closer than ordinary people. Brother Xu'er's nurse said to Gu's mother: "...... That time, the Seventh Young Master followed the Sixth Young Master and called the Fourth Lady 'Mother', and the Fifth Lady was a little unhappy in her heart. Later, because of the matter of learning to swim, the fifth lady also blamed the fifth master for a few words. Knowing that Hou Ye made a special trip to find two little guys for the sixth young master to play with, he also moved his mind and wanted to find two for the seventh young master. This time, it is also avoided that the seventh young master will follow the sixth young master's ass every day. For this matter, I made a special trip to Mama Shi to go back to the red light alley. It's just that such people are hard to find. It's funny, I'm afraid that I'll break the rules by going into the house and hanging up with the little girl, and I'm honest, I'm afraid that I don't have the ability to please the Seventh Young Master. The old marquis is also in a dilemma. If you let me say, don't you add fuel to that fire? ”

Gu's mother was dumbfounded when she heard this, and pointed to Brother Xu, who was lying under the tree with Brother Jin to find insects for the birds: "How will you explain it when you go back!" ”

"The fifth lady knows that the seventh young master has been messing with the sixth young master again these days. I just didn't know to play so crazy. Brother Xu'er's nurse said helplessly, "As long as the seventh young master cleans up before greeting the fifth lady, the fifth lady's mind is now on the eighth young master, and she won't notice it for a while." He added, "I just hope that the old marquis will find two little servants for the seventh young master as soon as possible, so that I don't have to worry about it every day." ”

As he was talking, Xu Sizhen and Xu Sijie walked in with a smile.

The two nurses hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Xu Sizhen nodded, and squatted beside Brother Jin with a smile: "Are you digging worms for your birds again?" ”

Brother Jin raised his head, and there was a black mark on his face.

"Fourth brother," he grinned, glanced at Xu Sijie, shouted "Fifth Brother", then stood up, held a fleshy earth dragon (earthworm) in his hand, stretched out his dirty hand and pulled Xu Sizhen.

Brother Xu'er's nurse exclaimed in surprise, and hurriedly looked at Gu's mother, signaling her to stop Brother Jin'er.

Gu's mother shook her head gently at her.

She saw Xu Sizhen holding Brother Jin disappreciatively.

Brother Jin pulled Xu Sizhen and ran under the eaves paved with bluestone bricks.

"Look, look!" With excitement on his face, he put the earth dragon on the bluestone brick, and then ran to Huang Xiaomao's side and took half of the scissors, cutting off the earth dragon from the middle.

The earth dragon rolled and shrunk into a ball on the bluestone bricks.

Xu Sizhen and Xu Sijie invariably said "ah", and their faces were a little pale.

Liu Erwu said that the earth dragon is not afraid of death. I'll be alive later. It can also become two. Brother Jin looked at the two brothers triumphantly, "I want to make a lot of earth dragons and keep them in cages, so that I don't have to catch insects and feed the birds every day." ”

"Really?" Xu Sizhen couldn't bear to look at the earth dragon on the ground, and turned his face sideways, "Brother Jin is so smart!" ”

Xu Sijie was very confused and asked Liu Erwu: "Is it true?" ”

Liu Erwu nodded: "How dare I lie to the young master." It's the dog in our village who said it. I also tried it once. You can really live. That's when I told the sixth young master. Madame specially instructed us. If the Sixth Young Master asks us anything, we will say no, and if we can, we will say yes. If you don't talk nonsense, you coax the sixth young master, and Madam will know about it, and she will drive the two of us out of the house together. ”

As he was talking, the autumn rain came out of the curtain.

"Fourth Young Master, Fifth Young Master," she bowed with a smile, "Madame knows that you are coming, please come into the house and drink chilled mung bean soup." ”

The two of them were busy straightening their clothes.

Brother Jin rushed in with two pieces of insects.

Xu Si smiled earnestly, arched his hand towards Qiu Yu, smiled and said, "Sister Lao", and then entered the hall with Xu Sijie one after another.

Eleven Niang sat on the Luohan bed in the hall, and a little maid stood aside to help her fan.

Brother Jin was already snuggled in her arms, carrying two pieces of worms and talking to her: "...... Not a lot, a lot. ”

Eleven Niang took the little girl's fan to help Brother Jin'er fan the wind, not only did she not show a look of disgust or annoyance, but she also said with a smile: "You can't keep it in a cage, right?" Who do you see keeping earth dragons in cages? It should be kept in a flower pot, right? Isn't it in the soil? ”

Xu Sizhen looked a little surprised.

Brother Jin tilted his head, looked at his mother, and then looked at the meat worm twisting his body in his hand, and ran out on his feet: "I'll ask Erwu!" ”

Eleven Niang looked at her son's back, and the smile in her eyes was full of tolerance.

She greeted Xu Sizhen and Xu Sizhen with a smile: "You are here!" Qi Dao, "Why did you come here at this time?" Is there something wrong? ”

They usually go into the inner courtyard after dinner to greet their parents and their wives.

Xu Sizhen and Xu Sijie sat on the Taishi chair on the side, and said with a smile: "A few days ago, Han Jian invited us to go fishing in their newly built yard, and I saw that the lotus flowers in Biyi Lake were blooming, so I wanted to invite them to our house to enjoy the lotus ......."

Before he finished his words, Eleven Niang already understood.

To enjoy the lotus in Biyi Lake, you naturally have to be in the back garden. And the back garden is in the inner courtyard, and the maids, mothers-in-law and others need to avoid when the time comes. Eleven Niang is the housewife of the Xu Mansion, and her consent must be obtained in this matter.

Eleven Niang looked at Xu Sizhen, who was sitting opposite her generously, and was very pleased. Immediately, he said, "Okay! When do you think the banquet will be held? What do you need? Let Ge Jin write a list and come over, I will let the mothers arrange it! ”

Xu Sizhen knew that his mother would definitely support him unconditionally.

With a happy smile on his face, he stood up and saluted Eleven Niang: "Mother, I'm sorry to annoy you!" ”

It's a little grown-up.

Eleven Niang smiled: "You don't have to be so polite with your mother!" Then he asked, "Did Mr. Zhao tell you?" ”

Xu Sichen touched his head and smiled a little embarrassedly.

There is a shyness in his expression again.
