Chapter 273: Celebration (II)

Sister Xin made the full moon, and the fifth lady first moved back to the original yard from the dressing hall in a hurry, and then went back to her parents' house with Xu Lingwan and the child. When I came back in the evening, Sister Xin'er was covered with colorful silk threads. Mrs. Tai hugged and smiled, counting the silk threads to tease her sister: "...... Look how much our old marquis loves our sister! ”

If the child goes to a foreign house for the first time in the full moon, if it is a girl, relatives and friends from other families will send a colorful silk thread to the child from each family. The number of silk threads represents the number of people who come to congratulate outsiders.

The fifth lady smiled when she heard this: "I heard that Sister Xin went back, and several aunts and sisters-in-law who came out of the five suits went back - it's lively!" ”

Mrs. Tai smiled and nodded.

The second lady, who was sitting opposite Mrs. Tai, took the opportunity to hold the child - although Mrs. Tai was well maintained, she was old after all. It's okay to tease, but I'm afraid it's a little hard to hold for a long time.

Mrs. Tai was not reluctant, so she talked to Shi Niang, who was standing aside, about March 3: "...... Every year at this time, they are invited to come and have a good time. There are a lot of things going on at home this year. As she spoke, she glanced at the fifth lady, "You have to invite someone to make a fuss, and you need to press it." ”

It refers to the violent death of Xiaolan's mother and son, right?

"I was just trying to discuss this with my mother." Eleven Niang said softly, "I see that the account books of the house in previous years have this expense. I just want to ask my mother what to do this year? ”

The implication is whether or not to do it this year!

When the second lady heard this, she coughed softly.

Mrs. Tai looked at the second lady: "What do you mean?" ”

The second lady said softly: "The child is only full moon - I think it is better to act as in previous years?" ”

The ancients paid attention to the mandate of heaven and believed that everyone's life was fixed. Pay more attention to the balance of yin and yang. If the yin is born, the yang will disappear, and if the yin rises, the yang will die. If the pattern is broken at will, under the balance of yin and yang, it is possible to form a situation of more wealth and less longevity.

What she means is that the child is still too young, and too much extravagance will upset the balance of the child's destiny and cause bad consequences!

The fifth lady wanted to make a big deal before. First, as Mrs. Tai said, I want to be happy. Second, this is the first Daughter's Day after the birth of her daughter - although all kinds of expenses in the public school are customized, Sister Xin'er took fifty taels of silver according to the old practice for the eleventh day of the full moon, and the rest of the expenses are paid by themselves. But they can't afford it. For the sake of my daughter, this money is still worth it!

But when the second lady said this, she immediately changed her mind.

"It's still the second sister-in-law's thoughtfulness. Mother, just do what the second sister-in-law wants, right? ”

Mrs. Tai also agreed with the second lady's opinion in her heart, and she didn't express her position immediately before, because she was afraid that the fifth lady would be too careful. Now that everyone is unanimous, Mrs. Tai bowed her head slightly and instructed Eleven Niang: "Then let's do it as in previous years!" ”

Eleven Niang responded, and the two brothers Xu Lingyi and Xu Lingkuan came.

After seeing each other, Xu Lingkuan immediately hugged his daughter: "Did you cry today?" He asked the Fifth Lady.

The fifth lady walked up to her husband and looked at her daughter with a smile: "Who dares to make her cry!" ”

Xu Lingkuan smiled when he heard this: "The child will cry when he is uncomfortable." It means that the service is good today.

Everyone laughed.

Xu Lingyi's eyes fell on Eleven Niang.

Since taking over the affairs of the family, Eleven Niang spends most of her time in the West Flower Hall, even if she is at home, she often has a mother in charge to show her. Although he was at home, the two of them didn't spend as much time together as before, and they didn't have the same peace as beforeβ€”they met and said a few words when they were still having breakfast today.

I saw Eleven Niang wearing a pink thin jacket and standing beside Mrs. Tai. The black green silk was an ordinary child, and only a small southern pearl fell in the ear. Stand there quietly. Tranquil and calm, like the Nanzhu on the ear, there is a quiet beauty.

Feeling that someone was looking at her, Eleven Niang turned her face sideways and saw Xu Lingyi standing at the door far away.

He wore a homely blue Hangzhou silk robe, stood with his hands behind his back, and his posture was erect. Looking at her with a bright gaze and a faint winter-like smile, his expression seemed two points softer than usual.

Eleven Niang was slightly stunned.

After Wang Jiubao entered Beijing, people often came to visit Xu Lingyi. Xu Lingyi excused himself from the recurrence of foot paralysis, except for a few old friends such as Wang Li and Ma Zuowen, the others were gone. Nest in the half-moon pan painting, writing. Today, for some reason, I went to the outer courtyard after breakfast, and only then did I come back.

Is there something happy happening?

She looked at him thoughtfully, a little confused.

Eleven Niang has a pair of good eyes. Black and white, clear and bright, like the spring water of a mountain stream, making people's hearts clear when they look at it. But sometimes it is like the stars in the night sky, shining brightly and shining inexplicably, making you guess for a while......

Xu Lingyi looked at Eleven Niang carefully.

Eleven Niang was a little embarrassed.

I felt that his gaze was too focused.

I don't know what to say in the eyes of others!

She hurriedly turned her face sideways, sat upright with her eyes and nose, and heard a burst of laughter in her ears, and Xu Lingkuan's voice asking Xu Lingyi: "Fourth brother, what do you think?" There were two temptations in his tone, two cautions.

Xu Lingyi saw that Eleven Niang's expression turned sideways, and she sat there with a smile on her face, thinking of her panicked gaze when she glanced at herself just now...... I smiled in my heart. Knowing that Xu Lingkuan's tone was a little wrong, he couldn't calm his mind, so he blurted out uncontrollably: "You just have to make up your mind!" I don't care. ”

Xu Lingkuan's mouth opened wide when he heard this, and he didn't make a sound for a long time.

The fifth lady over there already smiled coquettishly: "Mother, you heard it with your own ears - the fourth brother agreed." We started in the second year of junior high school and sang until the fourth year of junior high school. Deyin class, longevity class, and incense club, one day for each family. Speaking of which, I was already very excited, "When the time comes, invite Zhou Dehui, Geng Changsheng, and Bai Xixiang." This is a rare event in the pear orchard industry in a century! ”

"The fourth child is really easy to talk today!" Mrs. Tai's gaze fell on Xu Lingyi's body for a while, and on Eleven Niang's body for a while, and her eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile.

Xu Lingyi already understood what Xu Lingkuan was asking for, his body stiffened slightly, and he quickly returned to his usual gentleness and calmness: "It's rare that everyone is happy." ”

Mrs. Tai smiled and nodded.

The second lady looked at Xu Lingyi thoughtfully and smiled.

He was the one who said that Xu Lingkuan was "a plaything", and now he is the one who agrees with Xu Lingkuan to invite the troupe to sing the Three Heavens Club at home...... Xu Lingyi was a little uncomfortable, and quietly changed the topic: "I looked at the yellow calendar with Manager Bai today. The 10th day of March is a good day. If you want to, you can choose the day to break ground. It's better to repair it early, and move in early for the summer. ”

"Okay, the good lady nodded again and again, "Then where are you going to move to?" ”

To repair the house, you have to hire a craftsman. Men and women do not kiss each other. Naturally, the ladies in the house could not live there, so they had to move somewhere.

Without waiting for Xu Lingyi to speak, Mrs. Tai said again: "I think, let's move to the Chuilun Water Pavilion to live!" Although it is said to be a water pavilion, your father liked to fish there when he was alive, and a small courtyard with three rooms was added behind the water pavilion. Brother Jie followed Brother Yu to live in Lijingxuan. Sister Zhen will stay with me for a few days for the time being. Several aunts lived in Yixiangyuan. The two of you, although not very spacious, are not cramped. Mrs. Tai looked at Eleven Niang, "What do you think?" ”

The most spacious courtyard in the garden is the Makeup Hall. But Xiaolan's mother and son died there. Let her move there to live, she has a little pimple in her heart. Shaohua Courtyard is next to the Biyi Gate, and the Yongdao Road to the Makeup Hall is across the water from the Shaohua Courtyard. In this way, it is not very convenient for Xu Lingyi to get in and out. Mrs. Tai's arrangement is the best.

Eleven Niang looked at Xu Lingyi.

This kind of thing naturally has to be agreed to by the head of the family.

Xu Lingyi also felt that Mrs. Tai's arrangement was very reasonable: "It depends on my mother's wishes." He added, "I see that the sixth day of the first month of next month should be moved, so let's move on that day!" ”

Mrs. Jaw.

Eleven Niang talked about Sister Zhen'er: "...... Let's let her live with us! lest you have to move another place. ”

"It's spring, and the wind blowing from the water is cold, and the house near the water can't be inhabited." At this point, Mrs. Tai was more insistent, "You can't let her live in the courtyard with you, right?" ”

Sister Zhen is older, not to mention that there are a bunch of maids and wives around her, and it is indeed a little inconvenient to move in. But Mrs. Troublesome is very uneasy.

"Let Sister Zhen live where I am!" The second lady, who had been sitting silently, suddenly said, "I also took this opportunity to check her homework." See if she's lost! ”

Mrs. Tai thought for a while: "It's okay, just let Sister Zhen live where you are!" ”

And so it was settled.

Waiting for Xu Siyu and others to ask Mrs. An to say, Xu Siyu didn't make a sound, Xu Siyu was too young to react, but Sister Zhen was very happy, only Brother Zhen'er pulled Mrs. Tai's sleeve and muttered: "Grandmother, let the eldest sister live with us!" ”

Xu Lingyi frowned: "Your sister is going to learn the piano and practice calligraphy with the second aunt, not to play!" ”

Brother Zhen was so frightened that he hid directly beside Mrs. Tai, and he didn't dare to make a sound for a long time.

Xu Lingyi looked at it and was about to test his homework.

He is now studying in ethnology with Xu Siyu.

It is the father's responsibility and power to take care of his son's homework, and the women in the backyard can't say anything, including Mrs. Tai.

Brother Zhen stood tremblingly in front of Xu Lingyi and stumbled to recite a few sentences of "Kindergarten".

Not to mention Xu Lingyi and the second lady, even the eleventh mother also heard that Brother Zhen was not in the state at all - the second lady and Mrs. Tai had told him "Kindergarten Learning" in advance, and he memorized it quite slippery, but now that he has been studying for a few days, he seems to have forgotten everything he learned before.

Xu Lingkuan looked at him nervously.

The fifth lady patted her daughter, a little absent-minded.

The second lady looked confused.

Mrs. Tai looked anxious.

Eleven Niang had no choice but to glance at Amber.

Amber turned around and went out, and a little maid said through the curtain: "Mrs. Tai, where is the food!" ”
