The second old man, Zhang Yufeng, just nodded lightly and asked, "Has your body recovered?" "It's still the same face in my memory, as if it's not interested in anything.

"My daughter is fine."

"Thank you, father."

The brother and sister answered separately.

Hua Jin couldn't help but glance at her father who was already sitting on the big kang by the window, the handsome man who had hugged her in the depths of his memory, had already become distant and strange.

When did my father become so indifferent and uninterested in anything?

Hua Jin pondered......

Luo Shi lovingly asked the maid to move a chair for them to sit on, "Jin'er, Brother Chen, don't stand there." ”

Before she sat down, Zhang Huarui, the only concubine in the second room, walked in by the little maid Forsythia next to her.

"Father, mother." Zhang Huarui stepped forward and saluted, her voice was like a mosquito and a fly, and her head hung low.

After that, he shouted: "Fourth brother, fifth sister." "The same nervousness.

At this moment, a voice as clear as a lark came in, "Father, mother." ”

Before the man could come in, he giggled again.

Hua Jin's gaze stayed at the door curtain until the corner of the moon's white skirt was exposed, and the childish little girl walked in with brisk steps.

It is Luo's daughter Zhang Huawei.

After she greeted everyone, she took Hua Jin's hand, "Fifth sister, we can play together again after you are well." ”

"I know how to play all day long, and your fifth sister's body is just right not to pester her." Although Roche's tone was reproachful, it was still difficult to hide his indulgence.

Even Zhang Yufeng, who had always looked faint, had half a smile at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

Hua Wei took Hua Jin's hand and didn't let go, and said with a giggle, "Mother, I just like the fifth sister to play with me." ”

Hua Jin overlapped her with the seventh sister in his memory, and replied as before: "Okay! ”

"You know that your fifth sister is pestering, and now that she has recovered from a serious illness, have you prepared a gift?"

Hua Wei winked at Roche a little mischievously, "Of course I have a gift." ”

She called the little maid who came with her, "Huarong." ”

Hua Rong brought up a small red lacquer and gold painted box and a black lacquer long box in his arms.

"The fourth brother and the fifth sister see if they like it or not?"

Hua Wei first held a long box with black paint and handed it to Hua Chen, and then a small box with red paint and handed it to Hua Jin.

The two brothers and sisters politely opened the box almost at the same time, Hua Jin's was a delicate cloisonné enamel glass mirror, and Hua Chen's was a fine wolf hair with high-quality white horn as a hanging head and mahogany as a pen holder.

Hua Jin saw his brother's expression, and seemed to think of something after seeing the brush.

I didn't have time to think deeply, and I saw Forsythia pulling the sixth girl Hua Rui with a slightly invisible movement.

Hua Rui seemed to struggle before pulling out two brand-new purses from her sleeve pockets.

"Fourth brother, fifth sister, this is my sister...... Sister ......"

"What a delicate purse, thank you Sixth Sister!" Hua Jin couldn't bear her being so entangled, and stepped forward to take the purse.

Hua Rui handed the purse embroidered with the spring color of the lotus pond to Hua Jin, and handed the purse embroidered with green bamboo elegance to Hua Chen.

"Huh...... The embroidery of the sixth sister is really not a cover...... Ahem......" Hua Chen coughed lightly.

He wanted to say that the embroidery of the sixth sister was really not covered, right?

Hua Jin really wanted to throw a roll of his eyes at him.

But he only gave Hua Rui an encouraging smile, "Thank you, Sixth Sister, I like it very much." ”

At this time, Changfang also sent his mother to give gifts to the fourth young master and the fifth girl who had recovered from their illness.

Hua Jin received an extraordinary octagonal copper hand stove engraved with sika deer, while Hua Chen's was a fine inkstone.

If my brother was thoughtful when he saw the brush just now, he would be sad when he saw Duan Yan.

Brushes and inkstones? Hua Jin thought about it for a while, and then thought of the reason, but he was still silent.

After that, Sanfang also sent someone to send some supplements.

The luncheon of Honghun Courtyard began.

Hua Jin secretly looked around at everyone, these strangers she was familiar with.

I couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Come, Ann.

Hua Jin told himself this as he picked up a piece of roast venison.

But before the meat could be eaten, a snapping sound was heard.

Everyone quietly looked at the second old man Zhang Yufeng who was sitting on the main seat, and saw that he was looking sideways at Hua Chen next to him.

Hua Jin felt a sigh in her heart, and when she saw her brother holding the chopsticks with his right hand, her heart relaxed a little.

"Why are you so restless during your meal?" The second old man's expression was indifferent, but there was a little more coldness on his face.

Hua Chen hurriedly put down his chopsticks and stood up beside his father, "My son knows that he is wrong." ”

The rules of the young lady of the family told Hua Jin that at this time, he should be like the two younger sisters and bow his head slightly.

But seeing her brother's somewhat deflated appearance, she picked up a handkerchief to cover her mouth and coughed twice after a little thought.

Everyone's eyes fell on her again.

"Fifth sister, but she is still not feeling well?"

Hua Jin glanced at her seventh sister Hua Wei gratefully, "Maybe it's not suitable to eat such a greasy thing." ”

She pained and tossed aside the piece of roast venison that had just been put in the bowl.

After that, he turned his head to look at Hua Chen, "Brother, is there anything uncomfortable, and he is not interested in getting his favorite brush and inkstone?" ”

She looked at Hua Chen with black and white eyes, and her eyes were full of encouragement.

But Hua Chen didn't meet her gaze, and only knelt on the ground with a plop, "Father, the child is unwilling!" ”

Everyone's expressions were a little surprised.

"Why are you unwilling?"

"The child unfortunately fell off his horse three days ago and missed the selection of Lutong Academy, and the child regrets it."

The coldness on the face of the second old man Zhang Yufeng gradually subsided, "Liu Ba is the former son of the country to supervise the sacrificial wine, and his knowledge and knowledge are also few today, it is a pity to miss it." ”

Hua Jin heard the regret in these words, and knew that although he had nothing to collect in his career when he was young, and Ding Wei only relied on the family's grace to be an idle petty official before the system, he still hoped that his children would have some success. This is true of most parents in the world.

Luo Shi said lovingly: "Get up and speak, Brother Chen's body is just right, and he is not in a hurry to do his studies at this time." ”

Seeing that the second master was silent, Hua Chen automatically ignored Luo's words, and said very unwillingly: "Father, if you are not favored by Mr. because of insufficient knowledge, then the child has no regrets." But the child didn't even see Mr. Liu Ba, and the child was really unwilling! ”

My brother remembered the scene when he fell off his horse that day, right?

I was going to participate in the selection in high spirits, but I didn't expect to end up like that......
