Li Shi waited for a while, then he heard a sound of footsteps outside, the bead curtain was lifted, making a crisp sound, and when he looked up, he saw that Grandma Sun, who had not been seen for several months, let a fair girl in a light-colored dress walk in.

Li Shi knew that Tong Chuchu was a beauty, but at the first sight of her, she was still stunned on the spot, and her hands trembled slightly unconsciously, causing the handkerchief to fall to the ground accidentally.

As the saying goes, people are as their name suggests, and they are moving. Li Shi never thought that she would be such an amazing beauty, and now she is only fifteen or sixteen years old, if it is two years later, I don't know what it will look like?

As a junior, the first reaction when you see an elder is naturally to greet him.

Tong Chuchu stepped forward slightly, kowtowed to the woman in front of him, who was full of wealth, and said, "Chu Chu visits my aunt, greets my aunt, and wishes my aunt good health and all the best." After she said this, she raised her head slightly at the same time, looked at Li Shi and smiled slightly, that little face like a pink carving couldn't help but make Li Shi's heart move again.

Li Shi immediately smiled with a smile on his face, stepped forward enthusiastically, held her hand and said, "You are Chu Chu." Good boy, my aunt has been looking forward to you for a long time, and now I finally see you. She said as she continued to look at the people in front of her carefully, and exclaimed: "Let my aunt take a good look, hey, you have grown so big in a flash, and you have become a big girl." ”

Li Shi had never seen Tong Chuchu before, but as an elder, he still had to say the kind words he should say.

Tong Chuchu's mother is the sister-in-law of the Li family, the ninth in the family, with a mediocre appearance and no outstanding features, so she is not valued at home. However, Li and her mother-in-law Li Jiuniang are of the same age, and they have lived in the same courtyard since they were children, eating and sleeping together, and being each other's companions, so the relationship is quite deep.

Although Li Jiuniang is two years younger than Li, she married before her, her husband is the eldest son of a large landowner, surnamed Tong Mingjian, this person has a good family background, but he is disabled, and his legs and feet are inconvenient. Fortunately, his character is not bad, and he is very considerate to his wife Li Jiuniang.

After Li Jiuniang married into the Tong family, she gave birth to two sons to the Tong family in a row, which made her position in the Tong family more and more stable, Tong Chuchu is her only daughter, and her status in the family is not low, but she is disgusted by the elders because of her too ostentatious face.

Li Jiuniang's appearance is mediocre, barely a medium appearance, Tong Jian is also an ordinary person's appearance, the husband and wife are not outstanding, but they gave birth to such a daughter with outstanding appearance, which really makes people think about it.

At the beginning, because of Tong Chuchu's appearance, Li Jiuniang was almost misunderstood by her mother-in-law's family, but fortunately, she was usually cautious in her words and deeds, and behaved in a proper manner, so she was not talked about. Later, the Tong family somewhere found a Taoist priest who could read feng shui and look at the appearance of Tong Chuchu to calculate a hexagram for Tong Chuchu, and the Taoist priest was half-deceived and only said that when Li Jiuniang was pregnant, she might have done something to accumulate merit and good deeds, so that the fox fairy appeared and gave her a daughter with outstanding appearance......

The Taoist priest's few nonsensical words made the Tong family feel at ease and no longer think nonsense. However, as the child grew up day by day, her face, her eyes, and her beauty made it impossible for everyone to just raise her as an ordinary child, and then caused a lot of trouble.

Li Jiuniang and her sister Li have been exchanging letters, although Li has never met Tong Chuchu, but occasionally from the words on her letter, you can also learn about Tong Chuchu's excellence.

Her own sisters are always better than outsiders, although Li Jiuniang is not willing to let her baby daughter be a concubine, but Li's promise made her finally moved, after all, the concubine is the same wife, and her status is almost on par with the main room, and the other party is the Zhu family, and it is nothing to be a little wronged.

Li Jiuniang knew that if her daughter looked like this, if she casually found an ordinary person to marry, it would definitely make her husband's family have a lot of scruples, and it was easy to provoke right and wrong...... Therefore, as soon as she gritted her teeth ruthlessly, she sent her daughter Chu Chu over, thinking that it was better to stay in the Zhu family, so as not to be worried about the three sects and nine streams outside, and not be at peace......

Li Shi is now bent on suppressing Shen Yuechen, and she doesn't have so many scruples and cautions in her heart, she looks at Tong Chuchu's impeccable face, and her heart can't help but bloom.

With such a child in front of him, even a wooden man would be tempted.

Tong Chuchu was not in a hurry, her luggage was well prepared, and she also brought a personal maid named Hongling, who was the one who served her since she was a child.

Before Tong Chuchu left home, her mother said goodbye to her, telling her to please her aunt, not to come back, and to stay in the Zhu family.

Tong Chuchu looked at Li's smiling face, and his mind sank slightly.

Seeing that she was quiet and didn't say much, Li Shi first asked the maids to lead her down to rest and rest, and then took her to greet the elders when it was time for dinner.

Li Shi left Grandma Sun to speak, and first asked, "Is my mother's house okay?" How is my mother's body? ”

Mama Sun rushed back all the way, and she didn't even have time to drink tea, so she hurriedly replied: "Mrs. Hui, everything is fine at my mother's house, the uncle and the second master, the eldest lady and the second lady have entrusted the slave maid to bring you a message, ask you how you are doing, and give you a lot of gifts." The old lady's body is quite stable, but she occasionally has a cough, and she still needs to be stared at by the decoction. In the days when the slave and maid went, the old lady was unwell and was resting in bed, so she didn't take the time to talk to the slave and maid, but just sent someone to explain and ask you to write more letters back from time to time. ”

Li Shi nodded slightly when he heard this: "Mother has been sick for many years, and now that the weather is getting hotter and hotter day by day, it won't be a big deal." As for my brother and sister-in-law, I also have a heart. ”

Grandma Sun continued: "Before leaving, Miss Nine asked the slave maid to bring a letter to Madame. After speaking, he took out a neatly folded envelope from his cuff and sent it to Li Shi's hand.

Li Shi opened it and saw that the letter was full of Li Jiuniang's gratitude to her, as well as her deep reluctance to her daughter.

Seeing that she was so affectionate, Li Shi couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and sighed secretly in his heart: We sisters, I naturally won't harm you, hand over Chu Chu to the Zhu family, and only she will enjoy the happy days in the future.

There are many vacant rooms in the west courtyard, and Li chose a chic wing room for Tong Chuchu to let her live in peace of mind.

Tong Chuchu looked at the delicacy of the room, and felt unhappy and sad in his heart, but felt that everything was cold, not as kind and warm as the boudoir at home.

Her maid Hongling was happier than her, looking around, and when she walked to the dressing mirror, she secretly opened the jewelry box and looked at it, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Miss, come and see, what do you really want here?" ”

Tong Chuchu didn't hear it, Hongling immediately walked over, saw her sullen appearance, and hurriedly asked, "Miss, what's wrong?" Are you homesick? ”

Tong Chuchu's red lips moved slightly, and he said softly: "What's the use of wanting?" Can I go back? ”

Hongling lowered her head when she heard this, and said, "Miss, Madame also sent Miss over to enjoy happiness for the sake of Miss." If you come, you will be safe, young lady, you will be happy. ”

Tong Chuchu couldn't be happy, so he said: "What is there to be happy about being a concubine?" ”

Hongling was slightly stunned, hurriedly looked around to see if there was anyone, and whispered: "Miss, don't talk nonsense, we will only arrive at Zhu's house, be careful that the wall has ears." ”

Tong Chuchu said lightly: "What am I afraid of?" If others like to listen to it, listen to it. ”

Hongling has served her for many years, and she knows her temperament best, since she left home, the young lady has been sulking in her heart, and she is sullen along the way, secretly complaining about the ruthlessness of the lady and the master.

Hongling knows that she is a strong person, and she is unwilling to bend her knees in everything, especially such a major event in her life.

"Miss, don't make a fuss, that young master is not an ordinary person, dignified and polite, he must be a person who will make Miss like."

In the past, Madame often talked about the young master of the cousin, and those of them who were subordinates couldn't help but be curious after hearing more, and wanted to see such an extraordinary man with their own eyes.

Hongling's clever mouth is the best at talking, and it is a set of persuasions to persuade people. However, these words were of little use to Tong Chuchu, all she could think about now was going home, going home......

……

On the first day of opening of Tianxiang Building, Shen Yuechen was busy all day, tired, but also happy.

However, as soon as she arrived home, Wu's mother came in in a hurry to report the news: "Miss, the eldest lady, there is a guest here this afternoon, it is a girl, and now she has lived in the West Courtyard. ”

Tong Chuchu's appearance really amazed the people of the Zhu family, those who had seen her naturally had to talk to each other, and those who had not had time to see her were also secretly anxious, looking for an opportunity to wander around the west courtyard.

When Shen Yuechen heard this, a trace of displeasure flashed in his heart, and then he lowered his eyes, thinking to himself, this Li clan really didn't give up, instead of sending people back, on the contrary, he also lived generously.

Mother Wu stood aside, still a little speechless, and then said after a while: "I heard that girl looks very ostentatious, Miss should be careful." ”

Shen Yuechen was silent, then took the tea bowl brought by Cui Xin, took two sips of tea and said: "The person that the eldest lady has worked so hard to find will naturally not be mediocre. ”

Didn't Brother Ming say before that he was a beauty who was compared to a fox fairy?

Fox Fairy Fox Fairy, just hearing these two words makes people feel difficult to deal with. However, since everyone is here, it's useless to get angry, so it's best to find a chance to meet and explore the depths. If it's just good-looking, it's easy to say, but if it's good-looking and scheming, then she has to think of countermeasures and preemptively......

Shen Yuechen drank the tea in the bowl in one go, and then instructed Chun Ming: "Prepare me for hot water to bathe and change clothes, and then pick out a bright dress for me." ”

It seems that she has to dress up herself, although she doesn't need to wear heavy makeup and compete for beauty, but she can't be too plain and lose in momentum.
