Mrs. Yan beckoned and asked Hua Hui and Hua Jin to sit down on the kang.

After the maids served tea, Jiang personally served Mrs. Yan with a tea cup and drank two sips of hot tea.

After that, she sent all the servants in the house, and hurried out of the east room.

When Hua Hui and Hua Jin put down the tea cup in their hands, Mrs. Yan couldn't wait to take the hands of the two sisters and looked at Hua Jin first, "Jin'er, Luo Chunying has taken good care of you and Brother Chen?" He looked at his sister very uneasily, "Hui'er, are you still comfortable living in the Zhao family?" ”

Hua Jin's face was slightly condensed, and he immediately understood that although this grandmother was very fond of them, the information that could be obtained around her was either concealed or filtered.

So who would be the one to conceal or filter the news?

Hua Jin and his sister glanced at each other, and when they saw that they hung their heads gloomily, they raised their heads to meet Mrs. Yan's caring gaze, "Grandmother, sister, she has already divorced." This is a fact that cannot be concealed.

Mrs. Yan has passed the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, and she has just seen the clues in the eyes of the two sisters, and when she heard Hua Jin say this result, she still showed a shocked expression, and the hands holding the two sisters unconsciously tightened a little, "Have you already left?" ”

Seeing Hua Hui's somewhat gloomy look, her face changed from shock to solemnity, and finally she could only soften and pat Hua Hui's hand, "My granddaughter is a good girl, but the Zhao family is not blessed." The past is all in the past, and the days to come are still long. ”

Hua Hui was moved to tears when she heard Mrs. Yan's intimate words of consolation, but in order not to worry her old man, she still suppressed the tears in her eyes.

Remembering that her sister Hua Jin often comforted her, she raised her head and smiled slightly, "Grandmother, my granddaughter is fine now." ”

Mrs. Yan bowed slightly, and looked at Hua Jin again, "Is the Luo clan good to your brothers and sisters?" ”

Hua Jin thought for a while, and then said: "Grandmother, rest assured, Luo is just our stepmother, and she has done her duty as a stepmother." ”

Roche did her duty as a vicious stepmother, and she was not lying, but she did not make her grandmother worry and guilty.

Back then, Luo married into the Zhang family, and there was also the promotion of the Yan family.

Mrs. Yan bowed, "That's good, it can be regarded as living up to your mother's friendship with her back then." ”

Hua Hui looked at Hua Jin with some doubts, but after a little thought, she could understand her sister's intentions.

Hua Jin had already changed his mind and asked, "Grandmother, is there anyone in the house who has some relationship with his stepmother?" My stepmother asked me to give that person a few words, but Jin'er forgot what this person's surname was and where he was doing? ”

Hearing Hua Jin's question, Hua Hui frowned slightly, and saw her sister winking at herself invisibly, so she temporarily pressed the question in her heart.

Mrs. Yan thought for a moment before saying, "It seems that there is such a person, but it was many years ago, and my grandmother can't remember it very clearly when she is old, but just ask your aunt to know." ”

There really is such a person!

Hua Jin hooked the corners of his lips, Luo can really cast a wide net to catch more fish.

She quickly came up with a way to catch the "ghost".

This time, she will make Roche a fish in the net.

Hua Jin didn't want to tell his grandmother about the bad things like pouring beans, so he quickly changed the topic and talked about happy things.

For example, she got the guidance of Du Niangzi, an embroidery master, and she has grown very much in needlework. There is also how my brother entered the Lutong Academy, which was appreciated by the great Confucian Liu Ba of the time.

It's just that as soon as he talked about Hua Chen, he was led into the house by the maid, looked at the three people sitting around chatting with a smile, and saluted Mrs. Yan again, "Grandmother." ”

Mrs. Yan was even more happy, and listened to Hua Chen tell some interesting stories about him in the academy.

The paleness on her face when she first saw her disappeared completely, and her whole person was much more refreshed.

Hua Jin knew that the diseases on his grandmother's body, leg disease were the main ones, and the rest were heart diseases.

She had only three children, the eldest of whom had died, and the eldest son was guarding the town in the distance.

Especially knowing that Hua Chen was going to take the hospital exam next spring, the old man was even more excited and shed tears, and frequently bowed his head, "Our brother Chen is promising, and it is not in vain what your mother taught you when you were a child." ”

Hua Chen scratched his head a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Grandmother, grandson, this is the hospital exam, and it is still far from being promising." ”

Hua Hui took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears for Mrs. Yan, "Brother Chen, he will work hard." ”

After chatting for a while, the three of them saw that Mrs. Yan still had a faint tiredness between her eyebrows, so they got up together.

Mrs. Yan smiled and waved her hand, "Go and rest and have dinner here at night." ”

Outside, the four big maidens who heard the sound had already opened the curtain and came in.

The four big maidens in Xuanyunju are all named after flowers, namely: peony, narcissus, rhododendron, and yueji.

Peony and Narcissus served Mrs. Yan to sleep, and the other Du Juan and Yueji took the three of them to the west for a while.

In the bedroom to the west, Bai Tao, Zhi Tao, Yanran and Yutong, who had just come in together, were sorting out the clothes brought by the two sisters.

The cuckoo opened the six-door rosewood relief high-door wardrobe standing on the north side, and there were rows of brightly colored clothes hanging in it, from the middle coat worn inside to the small jacket, gown, armor, and cloak on the outside.

These clothes are all fine silk materials, and there are even a few small jackets that are carved silk, and there is no shortage of precious materials such as fox fur in the cloak.

Seeing the two sisters' somewhat surprised eyes, Yueji smiled and said, "Second aunt and grandmother, fifth girl, these clothes were all prepared by Mrs. Tai years ago, and they are all newly made. ”

Seeing the eyes of the two sisters from surprise to emotion, the cuckoo opened the two doors under the high cabinet again, "There are more than ten new brocade quilts here, which are also newly made." ”

Hua Chen said with a smile: "My grandmother and aunt really care about us!" It's the same with me, and I've got new clothes and utensils. ”

Hua Jin thought that at that time, the Yan family had not yet received the news that they could come, so they mobilized the people to prepare for these at the end of the year.

This desire for them to come is the most moving.

…………

There is a separate open hall in the Xuanyun Residence.

In the center of the open hall stands 12 partition fan blue yarn cupboards, the skirt board of the partition door, the silk ring are carved with delicate patterns, and the lattice center is pasted green, white two-color yarn is painted with a hundred birds and phoenixes, beautiful.

The blue gauze cabinet divides the open hall into north and south, the north side is the place where the ladies eat, and the south side is the place where the host and guest are entertained.

At this time, Hua Jin was sitting on the Taishi chair on the north side of the open hall, eating all kinds of candied fruits on the table with his sister.

Through the picture of a hundred birds and a phoenix, she saw that her little uncle was standing in the center of everyone at this time, telling them about their experience of distress at the Grand Hyatt Inn.

"It's too late, it's too soon. My little nephew tied a rope made of a curtain around his waist and carried me safely beyond the fire. The more he spoke, the more smug he became, "This method was conceived by my clever little niece." ”

Song Junming, who was on the other side, showed a gentle smile, looked at Hua Chen and praised: "Fourth Young Master Zhang and Sister Ling are smart and courageous, which is admirable. He spoke like a jade voice, gentle and crisp, through the veil.
