Tian Qian'er's eyes swept the two pieces of fabric, her face was full of anticipation, she tried her best to suppress her heartbeat, and said, "Excuse me, Wangcai, didn't you just go back with your son-in-law, why did you go back again?" ”

Wangcai smiled and took out a letter from his bosom and said, "Back to the second miss, after our son-in-law went back, he personally picked out these two pieces of fabric, and asked the small one to be sent to the young lady along with this letter." ”

When Tian Qian'er heard this, she almost couldn't help but pounce directly and held the two pieces of fabric in her arms, this was the first thing that Brother Chu gave her, and it was also selected by Brother Chu himself.

Her fingers trembled slightly with excitement, and she took out the letter paper from the beginning to the end, her face was like a peach blossom blooming in spring, and she smiled sweetly and shyly, "Go back and tell your son, Qian'er will definitely live up to his expectations." ”

Wangcai should go down, and he was about to leave with a smile, Tian Qian'er said again, "Xin'er, get a big reward for Wangcai!" ”

"Yes, miss." Xin'er led Huanxi Wangcai and Xiao Dongzi out, Tian Qian'er immediately picked up the rest of the little maids, and walked around the flower hall with the two pieces of fabric in her arms.

The white and slender fingers cherished and touched the fabric very gently, as if the fabric was a sleeping child, and she would wake up with a force.

She tossed like this for half an hour, and finally calmed down from the ecstasy, remembering that Brother Chu praised her for her good craftsmanship in the letter, and she was going to visit in a few days, she couldn't help but feel anxious again.

Since her mother was unwilling to summon someone to teach her, she went out of the house to study by herself, and her father saved the life of the head of the family, and the woman would not refuse. However, what excuse do you have to find to get out of the house, she went through several brothers and sisters in the family in her mind, and finally chose the eldest sister Tian He.

The eldest sister's wedding date is next year, and her mother is in full swing to give her a dowry, at this time, if the eldest sister wants to take her out for a walk and pick a few pieces of cloth and jewelry, her mother should not stop her.

"Xin'er, Xin'er!" Tian Qian'er got up and put the two horses back on the bed in the inner room with her own hands, and began to arouse the maids, as soon as the door opened, the little maids who had not dared to go far immediately rushed in, standing respectfully aside and waiting for the master's orders, Xin'er stepped forward and asked, "What do you want to say?" ”

Tian Qian'er motioned for her to come in front of her, and like this, she instructed a few words, and finally said coldly, "This matter must be handled well, if you are wrong, be careful to peel off your skin." ”

"Yes, yes, miss." Xin'er hurriedly responded, and Tian Qian'er got up and took the two little maids to the next yard.

Xin'er's face immediately became bitter, and the little maid next to her was curious, and asked secretly, "Xin'er, what does Miss want you to do?" ”

"What can it be? It's a matter of the board. The little maid heard her tone badly, stuck out her tongue, pushed her and said, "Then go and do it quickly, otherwise the young lady will come back in a while, and the board will be moved immediately." ”

Xin'er stomped her feet, trotted out, and ran to the front yard.

In the courtyard next door, the two little maids were sweeping the snow in the yard, laughing with each other from time to time, and when they raised their eyes and saw the second lady coming, they immediately stepped forward to salute in a proper manner. ”

The little maid was about to answer, but the window sash between the landlords opened, revealing a woman in a blue shirt inside, with a thin figure, weak and pitiful, and her eyebrows and eyes were slightly wrinkled, as if she had been holding a touch of sorrow over the years. ”

Tian Qian'er immediately responded, "Eldest sister, close the window, otherwise you will blow the wind and cause the wind and cold, and my mother will reprimand me again." ”

Tian He's face flashed a warm color, the sister's temper is a little more delicate on weekdays, but she is still very concerned about her, she smiled and closed the window, raised her hand to pour tea, and when she raised her eyes again, sure enough, her sister had already come in, so she pointed to the chair in front of the bookcase and asked her to sit, and then asked, "Why did you think of coming to me to play today?" ”

Tian Qian'er took a sip of tea and complained, "Why does my sister look down on me, as if I know how to play all day long, could it be that the purse I asked Xin'er to send you the day before yesterday was embroidered by someone else?" ”

"If you don't mention it, I forgot, the purse is exquisitely embroidered, and my sister's craftsmanship has indeed improved a lot." It's rare that her sister, who has always been active, embroidered a small object for her, and Tian He naturally won't hesitate to praise it.

Tian Qian'er got up and bypassed the bookcase and squeezed on the soft couch with her sister, and said with a smile, "I worked so hard to learn needlework, and my sister accepted my gift again, shouldn't I give some rewards?" ”

Tian He thought that his sister had taken a fancy to some good object she had here, and took the opportunity to ask for it, so he shook his head with a smile in his heart, "You, you came to my sister again to blackmail some good objects, but you took a fancy to the crested hairpin, so it was in the makeup box, and I went to get it myself when I left for a while." ”

"Not really, sister." Tian Qian'er shook her sister's arm in annoyance, "People feel that the family is depressed and want to go out for a walk, so my sister will accompany me." ”

Tian He frowned slightly, thinking of next year's wedding, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "If you want to go out for a walk, just go if you know your mother, my sister is already a person who is going to get married, so it's not good to go out at will." ”

Tian Qian'er knew that her sister didn't like her own family affairs, but it was set since she was a child, and the relationship between the two families was very good, so she couldn't push it off, her sister was depressed, and she was often sick and sick this year, and people became more and more lazy and thin. If she told her sister the truth, maybe her sister would pity her true feelings and help her once.

She waved her hand to dismiss the maids standing in the corner of the house, took her sister's hand, and whispered, "Sister, I'll be honest with you, I don't want to go out to play, but to have something to do." Brother Chu came to sit at home today, I like dim sum very much, I was happy for a while, and said that the dim sum was made by my own hands, just now Brother Chu also sent someone to send me a thank you gift, saying that when I have free time, I want to taste my handicraft. ”

"Your craft? You girl, you obviously can't even boil white porridge, how can you be so panicked? Tian He heard his sister lying, and he was a little displeased.

"Sister, I also saw that Brother Chu liked it, and somehow said that it was made by himself, I originally thought that I could learn from the cook, and when he came, I would make it for him to eat, which was also a lie, but my mother said that the snack was sent by the guest, and I begged my mother to call the cook to teach me, but my mother did not agree. I really had no choice, so I came to my sister and begged me to help. ”

Tian He looked at his sister who was full of expectations, half envious and half helpless, if he had half a tough sister, would he be able to ask his father and mother to quit his family affairs and find another scholarly family for her, but unfortunately, her mother had already begun to help her prepare for marriage, and she still couldn't escape the fate of marrying a businesswoman after all. The corner of his eye swept to the half of the words on the table, and everyone looked for him thousands of times, and suddenly looked back, but the person was in the lamplight. In her life, after all, there has never been such a beautiful encounter...

Tian Qian'er waited for a long time, but didn't see her sister responding, but when she looked up, she saw her staring at the table in a daze, and carefully swept the words, she immediately smiled, and complained to herself, why was she in a hurry and forgot such a good excuse.

She reached out and pulled out the piece of rice paper, and said with a smile, "Sister, it's a coincidence." I went to my mother's to ask the guest who was delivering the snacks, and I heard one thing that had something to do with the poem. ”

"Oh, what's the matter? Could it be that the lyricist has made a new work? Tian He really cheered up immediately, and his body sat up straight.

Tian Qian'er said, "Does my sister know who the guest who sent the dim sum is, it is the woman who came to ask her father to visit the clinic during the Shangyuan Festival, and the dim sum was made by her own hands, she thanked her father and mother for her kindness, and specially came to visit to thank her." This poem was dedicated to her father during the Yuan Festival, and it seems to have been written by her husband. ”

"Really? Do you know the name of the person who used the word? I asked the maid to go out to inquire, and they all said that this person was seriously ill and dying, and now he has recovered? Tian He is the only one of the children of the Tian family who likes poetry with Lord Tian, but unfortunately she is a daughter, and she is naturally cowardly, and she is not loved by Lord Tian. Tian He loves the word, naturally it is inevitable that the person is about to die, and now when he hears his sister talk about the news, he immediately asks one after another.

"I only know that the surname of this person is Zhao, and my father once visited him and made friends with him, so I don't know anything else." Tian Qian'er pouted, grabbed her sister's hand, and persuaded, "Sister, I want my mother to invite this Zhao lady to come to the house to teach me how to make dim sum, but my mother refuses." In case Brother Chu comes to the door in two days, what can I do? Why don't my sister go and beg my mother to take me out to choose jewelry, how about we take the opportunity to go to this Zhao family? I learned dim sum from Mrs. Zhao, and my sister can also see who this Mr. Zhao is, and maybe I can get two more new words. ”

Tian He was very moved by what his sister said, but he still hesitated, "We two boudoir women, if we come to visit someone's door, will we make people gossip?" Besides, if my father and mother knew, they would also be punished. ”

Tian Qian'er was anxious, "Daddy saved Mr. Zhao's life, and we have no malice, but we just learn to have a snack, at most ask for two more poems, what is the obstacle to fame, if my sister doesn't go, I will go by myself, when the time comes, my sister will not regret it, when you get married, how can you have such a chance to go out?" ”

The last sentence of how to get married really choked Tian He's heart, thinking about the days when he would suffer in the future, he simply went to the last hesitation in his heart, and said, "I will go to my mother's place to sit at night, if my mother agrees, we will go out tomorrow." It's just that you can find out where the Zhao family lives? ”

"My sister just needs to convince my mother, and my sister will arrange the rest of such trivial things."
