Chapter 39: Sister

And Zhao Xin's gaze, the pair of peach blossom eyes, was full of affection when he narrowed slightly, and smiled at Hua Jin: "Fifth sister." ”

Such a man, in this era, has such a family background...... Hua Jin couldn't help but look at her sister again, seeing that her eyebrows were full of tiredness, and there was a trace of frustration.

What made my sister disheartened after more than three years of marrying a wife?

Is it just that there are no children?

"Sister." Hua Jin called out kindly, "Is my sister tired of traveling?" After speaking, she looked at Hua Hui expectantly, not missing any trace of emotion in her eyes.

Sure enough, I saw my sister's eyelashes flutter twice quickly, and then she lowered her eyes, covering all the emotions that were about to pour out of her eyes.

Hua Jin was thinking about how to create an opportunity for her and her sister to have a chance to say a few words alone, when another big girl beside Mrs. Tai came in and said, "Mrs. Tai, Mrs., the people in the big house have arrived at the gate and are about to come in through the east corner gate." ”

Seeing the tireless look on the faces of Mrs. Tai and Wang, Hua Jin understood who the big house that Fu Dong was talking about?

The Zhang family has been very famous in Shandong since their ancestors, but it is a pity that the people are not prosperous.

In the generation of the old marquis Zhang Qingrong, there are only one grandson and two sons.

Later, the old marquis entered Beijing as an official after the lordship, and then separated from his brother, and returned here after his later years.

Although the old marquis attacked the title, he did not treat the only cousin badly, and even divided a large part of the ancestral land to the cousin Zhang Qingshi when he split the family.

Helplessly, Zhang Qingshi is not good at running a family, and in a few years, the family has been ruined, and the old marquis can still help one or two when he is alive, but now he is ......

Breeze stood at the door, waiting to be demonstrated.

The eldest lady Wang looked at Mrs. Tai.

Mrs. Tai said to Fu Dong: "What are you doing standing there, why don't you go and invite in?" ”

Fu Dong should be "yes" and hurriedly ran out.

In less than half a cup of tea, Fudong ran back in a hurry, and just after the curtain was opened, before he entered the house, there was a sad cry outside.

Immediately afterwards, Hulala and his party rushed in the door, squeezing Fudong into a stumbling and almost falling to the ground, but fortunately, Xichun quickly helped him.

Where had the girls seen this battle, and they were dumbfounded.

Hua Jin saw Xiao Ba Hua Ting drill straight behind the third lady.

But the seven or eight people who came in didn't mean to restrain themselves, but knelt in two rows in front of Mrs. Tai, all of them were wearing white filial piety clothes, as if they were crying and mourning.

Hua Jin saw that the woman who cried the most in the lead was the eldest here, and guessed that it should be the eldest lady Liu over there.

And there was a little girl behind her, but she was about ten years old, her back was straight, her eyes were looking at Liu's back, and there was disdain and disdain in her eyes.

A woman beside her pinched her, and the little girl suffered from pain and tears of grievance fell from her eyes.

Seeing that the scene was really chaotic, the eldest lady Wang hurriedly stepped forward to help the Liu family, who came over from the big house, "Eldest lady, you are careful of crying." ”

Liu Shi was not persuaded, not only did he not get up, but he continued to cry and shout: "Uncle, why did you leave? ”

Mrs. Tai, who had been watching all this calmly, slapped her hand heavily on the rosewood crested kang table, and the holly glazed embossed lotus pattern cover bowl on it fell to the ground.

The sound of broken porcelain sounded, hot tea splashed everywhere, and the room suddenly fell silent.

"You're expecting me to die, aren't you?"

"My niece and daughter-in-law don't dare." Liu raised her head and choked up, "I'm just sad......" She raised her eyes and secretly looked at Mrs. Tai, "The old lady has been sick at home for several days." ”

Seeing the situation, the Wang family went to help the Liu family again, but this time she knew the opportunity, and was busy being helped up by the mother-in-law next to her, "Auntie, I got my father's order to take the children to my uncle for three years." ”

After speaking, he turned to look at the young masters and girls behind him, "Why don't you say hello to your uncle and grandmother." ”

The Zhang family's big house came this time with two ladies, with two young masters and two girls, and only followed two mothers-in-law. At this time, they all kowtowed to Mrs. Tai again.

Hua Jin looked over again, and saw that the youngest sister was still neither humble nor arrogant, but Hua Jin had a little more affection for her.

"Get up!" Mrs. Tai waved her hand, "Since you are here, go and kowtow to your uncle and grandfather, and don't delay the hour." ”

"Yes, my nephew and daughter-in-law will become a sinner if she delays the hour." Liu said with a smile, his face changed quite quickly.

At this time, everyone in the family also reacted, and greeted each other on the side of the big house, and quickly covered up the previous embarrassing atmosphere.

The eldest lady Wang greeted: "The hour is coming, everyone get up and go to the ancestral hall." ”

Everyone cheered out of the main room of Chaohui Courtyard.

Hua Jin is looking for her sister Hua Hui.

Stepping out of the threshold, Hua Jin took two quick steps and followed closely behind his sister.

She reached out and tried to grab her sister's hand hanging at her side from behind.

Unexpectedly, her fingers had just touched her sister's fingers, and the sister in front of her raised her hand to avoid her and grabbed Luo's arm.

Hua Jin's hand fell into the air, and finally drew an arc and fell helplessly, the tips of her fingers and the cold of her sister's fingers, even her heart fell faintly.

Memories swim upstream, and she remembers that before her sister got married, she often showed her a small portrait of her biological mother Yan, "Sister, you remember, this is our mother." ”

But now...... Is it the Zhao family or the Luo family who changed my sister?

As she was thinking about it, she felt someone gently tug at her sleeve.

Hua Jin turned around and saw that the youngest sister in the big house was smiling at her, her eyes like stars unstained with dust.

Looking at such a pair of eyes, Hua Jin's mood was a little better.

"Hello sister."

"Hello sister." Hua Jin smiled, "I don't know what my sister's name is?" ”

"My name is Huaqi, Zhang Huaqi." Hua Qi smiled back, "It's the fifth sister, right?" ”

"My sister recognizes me?"

"I heard from my family that the fifth sister in the second room is a delicate woman."

Hua Jin smiled helplessly, "Does that sister think the same way?" ”

Hua Qi showed a big smile, as bright as the warm sun, she stretched out her hand and squeezed Hua Jin's hand, "Fifth sister's hand is so good-looking, like a piece of top mutton fat jade I saw when I was a child." ”

Hua Jin smiled silently and shook her hand with his backhand, "Thank you sister for your compliment." ”

But I sighed in my heart that this sister Hua Qi, who had never met before, was a delicate and considerate person, and she must have seen her pull her sister's hand empty and come forward to comfort her.

glanced at her sister Hua Hui, who was close to Luo's in front of her, and had mixed feelings in her heart for a while.
