Eleven Niang's heart softened. "When will you come back?" ”

Seeing that her tone was relaxed, Qi Niang was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "We must come back before the time." ”

"Can I just watch it from my fifth sibling?"

Qi Niang nodded again and again: "There is Mother Shi, and there is a nurse, you are watching there, Danyang is also relieved." ”

Eleven Niang nodded.

Qi Niang smiled and took her hand: "I'll bring you Mapozi's shortbread back to eat!" ”

"Just don't get into trouble." Eleven Niang smiled, "I don't expect Mapo's shortbread." ”

"Am I the kind of person who gets into trouble?" Qi Niang disagreed.

Eleven Niang laughed.

Xu Lingyi frowned when he knew: "Will Ling Kuan and Zhu Anping also go with you?" ”

Yiniang responded, "Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to agree." ”

Xu Lingyi didn't make a sound.

Mrs. Tai heard that the two of them were going to attend the Menglan Festival and were going to put the river lanterns, so she hesitated a little, and heard that Eleven Niang promised to help watch Sister Xin'er, so she agreed.

Who knew that two days later, Xu Si said earnestly: "Mr. said, we will also put river lanterns on the Menglan Festival." ”

Mrs. Tai was taken aback: "No." In the middle of July, the ghost door opened. Yin Qi is the heaviest. ”

Xu Sichen listened to it and grinned: "Mr. said, just put it in the Biyi River in the back garden of our house." When it gets dark, he goes back to the house. We make our own river lanterns. ”

Mrs. Tai's hanging heart fell at this time.

After that, Xu Sizhen and Xu Sijie both devoted themselves to making lanterns, which made Sister Zhen feel itchy when she looked at it, saying that she was helping the two brothers, and she made a lotus lantern and gave it to Eleven Niang: "Mother, is it good-looking?" ”

The base is wood, painted with bright red lacquer, and the lotus petals are made of silk yarn, and a few small pieces of glass are inlaid on it. If you light the candles, these little glasses shine brightly, like morning dew, and they must be very beautiful. I just don't know if I can put it up.

"Beautiful!" Eleven Niang smiled and let the offering be placed on the windowsill of the banquet room in the west room, and asked Sister Zhen to make another one, "...... I'd like to send one to Mrs. Gantai too. ”

This is the best acknowledgement.

Sister Zhen was very happy and made two with great interest. Xu Sizhen heard about it and sent a rabbit lamp, and Xu Sijie sent an octagonal lamp.

Eleven Niang smiled and accepted them one by one and sent them to Mrs. Gan.

Mrs. Gan put the lotus lantern made by Sister Zhen on the incense table in the hall, the rabbit made by Xu Sizhen was hung in the east room, and the octagonal lamp made by Xu Sijie was placed in the inner room. A few days later, I asked my mother to send her handmade lotus seed cake, hibiscus cake, and rose cake to thank the three of them.

The three of them were more interested, and pulled the little maid and the rough mother-in-law to make river lanterns. Even Qi Niang and Fifth Lady were moved. Xu Sichen seemed to have become the commander-in-chief, holding his little chest high and calling this pasted colored paper at once, and suddenly calling the person who polished the lamp bone with sand, and was busy every day, but his spirit was more than ever.

The house is in full swing, but it is more lively than during the New Year.

Mrs. Tai simply said: "Otherwise, we will put lanterns on the Biyi River at that time." See who has the most beautiful lanterns. I will give twenty taels of silver for the lottery. ”

Qi Niang and Fifth Lady shrank their shoulders when they heard this, for fear that Mrs. Tai would leave them at home.

Eleven Niang looked funny, and followed Mrs. Tai to coax: "Then I'll pay ten taels." ”

Qi Niang and Fifth Lady glanced at each other, and said with a smile: "We are not at home, but we can't sweep away your interest, I will pay ten taels." ”

The fifth lady immediately answered: "I will also give ten taels." ”

Mrs. Tai can't see their weak hearts, and the festival is just for fun. He smiled and instructed Eleven Niang: "Remember to put away the silver of the two of them." ”

Eleven Niang smiled and responded "yes", Qi Niang and Fifth Lady hurriedly sent someone to open the box to get the silver, and handed it over to Eleven Niang in front of Mrs. Tai.

So it would be fifty taels of silver.

Eleven Niang came up with an idea: "It's better to evaluate a champion, a list eye, a flower, and a few more on the list." ”

"That's good!" Mrs. Tai agreed, "Everyone has a hope. ”

When Xu Sizhen found out, he and Xu Sizhen went to Mrs. Tai: "Are we counted too?" ”

"You are the master, how can you compete with the servants and women." Mrs. Tai smiled, "However, if the river lanterns you make are comparable to those of the champions, Bangyan or Tanhua, I will add them to you according to their colors." ”

Xu Sichen cheered when he heard this, and instructed Xu Sizhen: "You will do what I tell you to do." If you win the lottery, I'll be half with you. ”

Xu Sijie listened and nodded: "I'll do whatever my brother says!" ”

Xu Sizhen was satisfied and pulled Xu Sijie away, called himself and the little maid next to Xu Sijie to him, did not allow his mother and maid to follow, and closed the door to make river lanterns. I'm afraid that Eleven Niang will ask what he is doing, and he won't let Xu Sijie tell Eleven Niang. So much so that Xu Sijie covered his mouth with his little hand when he saw Eleven Niang: "Mother, my brother said he wouldn't let me tell you." Not forever, though. I'll tell you when it's over. ”

Eleven Niang laughed, hugged him and kissed him again: "Mother is waiting for you and your brother to win the championship!" ”

Xu Sijie giggled: "I gave all the lottery heads to my mother." ”

"Okay!" Eleven Niang said with a smile, "I'll help Brother Jie's save it, and I'll marry Brother Jie's daughter-in-law in the future." ”

Xu Sijie happily went to find Xu Sizhen.

Eleven Niang didn't see the river lantern made by the two with her own eyes.

On the day of the Midyear Festival, she stayed by Sister Xin'er's side.

There is a kind of emphasis on saying that children have weak qi and blood, and they are most likely to be possessed by evil spirits. Therefore, when the ghost door is opened, not only can they not walk outside at night, but they also need adults to accompany them to guard them.

Although there is no basis, Eleven Niang was entrusted by others to stay in the fifth lady's house honestly, and play with Sister Xin with Shi's mother.

Fortunately, not long after dark, Amber came to report: "The fourth young master and the fifth young master made a tiger river lantern." Everyone points out that the fourth young master and the fifth young master are the first. Mrs. Tai rewarded twenty taels of silver. ”

When people at home comment, they naturally want to be the first.

Eleven Niang smiled and asked Amber to go back first: "Let the fifth young master rest early, don't be so excited that you can't go to bed early." ”

Amber departed.

It may be that I didn't see the fifth lady, and when it was time to go to bed, Sister Xin was a little noisy. The nurse couldn't coax her, and Eleven Niang tried to carry her around the house, and she quieted down. But when she breathed steadily and put herself on the bed, she woke up and cried again. Eleven Niang had to hold her all the time.

Shi's mother looked at it, but she wanted to hug her hand with Eleven Niang, but she woke up again as soon as she took over Sister Xin.

"I'd better do it!" Eleven Niang was also a little puzzled, why Sister Xin had to ask her.

Mother Shi was also a little puzzled.

Speaking of which, there are not many opportunities for Eleven Niang to hug Sister Xin.

"It's not a family, it's not a family." Mother Shi was afraid that Eleven Niang would feel uncomfortable, so she comforted Eleven Niang, "Our sister Xin knows that she wants her aunt to hug her." ”

Anyway, they came back.

After all, Eleven Niang has never taken a child, and her arms are sinking as if they have been filled with water, but she still tries her best to hold Sister Xin'er.

But when the time passed, the fifth lady and the seventh lady did not come back.

Mother Shi was a little uneasy.

Eleven Niang can understand.

When you're having fun, you're always paying attention to the time.

"It's okay, it's common to be late." She comforted Mother Shi.

A little maid ran in in a panic: "Fourth lady, the Hou Ye is here!" ”

Xu Lingyi is here?

What is he here for?

Mother Shi hurriedly lifted the curtain.

"What? The fifth hasn't come back yet! ”

Xu Lingyi ignored the half-squatting Mother Shi and the others, walked over and touched Sister Xin'er's black hair.

Sister Xin woke up immediately.

glanced back at Xu Lingyi, and without waiting for Eleven Niang to speak, she cried "wow".

It seems that I still think about my mother!

Eleven Niang didn't care about talking to Xu Lingyi, and gently patted her back and coaxed her.

Sister Xin leaned on her shoulder again and fell asleep in a daze.

Eleven Niang hugged her and sat on the side of the kang, and said in a low voice: "It may have been delayed." ”

Xu Lingyi frowned: "What about her nurse!" "The voice was several times lower than usual.

"I don't know why, just me." Eleven Niang motioned for him to stop talking.

Xu Lingyi's brows locked.

"Master Hou will go back and rest first!" Everyone is uncomfortable here, "I'll go back later!" ”

Hou Ye thought for a while and said, "I'll just read the book in the fifth child's study!" Three watches in the middle of the night, the road is not quiet. ”

Although the red lanterns under the verandah will be lit all night, today is the Midyear Festival, and Eleven Niang is also a little hairy in her heart.

"Then there is Lord Lao."

Mother Shi was busy serving Xu Lingyi and went to Xu Lingkuan's small study, and arranged for the maid to serve refreshments on the side.

When they arrived at Chouzheng, the four of them came back with a smile.

Seeing Xu Lingyi, a smile was fixed on his face.

Xu Lingkuan and Zhu Anping spoke in unison, one said, "The road is full of people," and the other said, "I didn't pay attention to the hour", both of them were a little ashamed. The fifth lady and the seventh lady hid behind their respective husbands.

The matter has come to this point, not to mention the presence of Zhu Anping and his wife.

Xu Lingyi couldn't say anything.

He said lightly, "It's good to come back", and then said to the fifth lady: "Go and see Sister Xin'er, she is sleeping a little restlessly." ”

When the fifth lady heard this, she hurriedly entered the house, and when she saw Eleven Niang holding Sister Xin'er, a trace of uneasiness flashed in her eyes, and she said, "There is a fourth sister-in-law", and took Sister Xin'er.

Sister Xin half opened her eyes, saw that it was her mother, flattened her mouth, cried a few lowly, and fell asleep in the arms of the fifth lady.

Eleven Niang breathed a sigh of relief.

finally handed over the child to the fifth lady safely.

She pinched her heavy arm, and was about to say a few words to the fifth lady, when she saw Qi Niang muttering angrily, "...... I didn't say anything...... I haven't settled accounts with him last time, why is he ...... face", while being pulled in by Zhu Anping. There was also a sweaty Xu Lingkuan behind him.

Eleven Niang and Fifth Lady looked at each other.

"It's okay, it's okay." Xu Lingkuan hurriedly explained to his surprised sister-in-law and wife, "A small misunderstanding, a small misunderstanding. ”

Eleven Niang looked at Zhu Anping again, her face was full of embarrassment, and she smiled and went down: "Then I'll go back first." It's not too early, let's rest early! ”

Xu Lingkuan nodded hurriedly: "Fourth sister-in-law, go slowly!" ”

Eleven Niang went out and saw Xu Lingyi standing under the tree with her back hand in the night.

The moonlight shone on his face, half in the light and half in the dark, and his facial features were more distinct, and there was also a bit of coldness.
