Chapter 38: Speculation
Si Yanzhong's incident made Liu sweep away the recent gloom and smile. If it weren't for the fact that Yichen didn't win, probably the Liu family would have made the whole mansion shine up and down.
It is said that after Yichen heard the news that he had fallen off the list, he was anxious, and then he fell unconscious. Yan Sui and Si Yan were hiding not far away to eavesdrop, but after listening to half of it, they ran away. I didn't know the follow-up development, and naturally I didn't see the scene where Shaohua pointed at Yichen and scolded. It was only when he hurried to receive the news that Yichen vomited blood and fell ill, Yan Sui cried like a tearful person, and he couldn't remember the existence of Shaohua at all.
Fortunately, the doctor invited him in time, only saying that he was overthinking, impetuous, and his heart was uncertain, and his blood rushed upward. He prescribed two patches of soothing medicine and told them not to irritate him, and he would be fine after a few days of rest.
Liu comforted Yan Sui a few words, and instructed You's mother to take a few days off for Yan Sui and let her stay in the house to take care of Yichen.
After all, no matter how close Yichen is, he is just a cousin's child, so naturally he can't compare with Si Yan. Liu's more depressed matter, she wanted to set up a few tables for Si Yan to celebrate. Although it is only after the autumn season, but with Li Liangxun and his eldest son as a guarantee, it is not difficult to come to next year's spring. Elder Li Ge was also pleased, but Li Liangxun objected, no matter what, at least he had to take into account the feelings of those who fell off the list.
Liu saw that Yichen was not well ill, and he was infected with a cold, and wandered in a daze in the house all day long. Finally, I didn't want to go, so I took the initiative to go to Xiyuan and asked the Ling family to take more nourishing herbs from the warehouse to recuperate Yichen's body.
And the Ling family didn't know that Yichen was so sick until Liu came to the door in person, and she also patronized herself and forgot about Yichen.
As soon as the laurel list came out, after knowing that Si Yan was in the middle of the move, the Ling family hurriedly asked people to see the news of Fan Erlang. Sure enough, Fan Erlang was among the best, more than a dozen places higher than Si Yan's ranking. This made the Ling family very happy, and immediately put nine incense sticks on the Buddha in the house, but Wanhua really couldn't stand it so she pulled her to talk about the rest.
When Shaohua came back from Xuyuan that day, she was so angry that she couldn't speak, and she didn't dare to mention it to the Ling family, for fear of being asked about her sneaking out of the house. So, let Youhan go to accuse her and say that people were uncomfortable, and the Ling family was already overjoyed by Fan Erlang's incident, so he didn't care about Shaohua's matter. But Wanhua was cautious, and came to visit her after a hurried meal.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw her sitting at the table eating without any image, and walked in angrily. Shaohua didn't expect Wanhua to come to her so soon, in order to curry favor with Wanhua, she had to be tricked by Yan Sui into going to Xuyuan, and Yichen's rude words. Automatically skipped the plot behind, and said aggrievedly and pitifully that she was frightened by Yichen and ran back, for fear that the Ling family would be angry if she knew about it, so she didn't go to Xiyuan.
When Wanhua heard this, he was immediately furious, if it wasn't for Shaohua pulling and saying good things, I was afraid that Wanhua would have taken the Ling family to Xuyuan to ask for an explanation.
"Wu Niang, don't worry, even if he is named on the gold list, I will never let Ah Niang allow you to such a frivolous and prodigal person." Wanhua's words moved Shaohua very much, and he was originally worried about Yan Sui's questioning, but when he learned that she was taking care of Yichen in Xuyuan on vacation, Shaohua was even more relaxed.
Although Ling didn't have an obvious liking for Yichen, he was not prejudiced, but he was also a little worried when he heard that he was seriously ill. When I was going to take my two daughters to Xuyuan, I took a visit by the way, but the two of them were not happy, and Wanhua even bluntly said Yichen Menglang's words and deeds.
"In vain, I said that this is a good family matter, and I thought about allowing Wu Niang to come over, but I didn't expect it to be such a person!" Ling slammed his face on the table. Seeing that Shaohua was also a little annoyed, he stretched out his finger and poked her head, and scolded unhappily: "You are really useless, why didn't you say this kind of thing earlier!" It's good that it's at home, but if it's somewhere else, what can you do, what can you do with your reputation? ”
"But Sister Yansui asked me to accompany her to get things, and I didn't think about it that much." Shaohua covered his head and said innocently.
"If she tells you to go, you will go! Why can't you learn from your sister to be smarter, I'm really by you. Ling was so angry that he slapped the table a few times and almost dropped the cup, but fortunately, Shaohua was quick and caught it in time, and everyone present had a false alarm. Luckily, I caught it. Shaohua completely ignored Ling's shocked face, and patted his chest with one hand as a gesture of rejoicing. Auntie, you see I'm clever enough. If this cup falls again, another set of tea sets will be untidy. ”
Wanhua reacted immediately, stepped forward to take the teacup for Shaohua, and looked at her hand, fortunately, the water was not hot, but slightly red. Ling immediately called Lian Xiang to get the burn ointment, originally worried, but seeing Shaohua's hippie smiling face, he actually felt funny and angry.
"You still have a smile, just like you, how can Xu Langjun in the future!" The Ling clan deliberately kept a straight face, but unfortunately he had already broken his skills in front of Shaohua.
"A-Niang, it's not my business to worry about now, I'm still young, and the third sister is the important thing. When will the county lord say that she will come to decide? "Wanhua is helping Shaohua dry his hands and apply a thin layer of ointment, as soon as he heard Shaohua say this, he deliberately increased the strength in his hands, and Shaohua immediately screamed." Auntie, look at the third sister, she is bullying people! I'm going to tell my future third brother-in-law to go! ”
"You still say!" Wanhua's face turned red, and she wanted to pinch Shaohua again, but she was slipped away.
Seeing that the two sisters still had the heart to joke, the Ling family lost their anger, spit out, and said faintly: "Anyway, Chen Lang is not on the list, this in-law will definitely not be able to do it, and the Liu family is not easy to say." Anyway, the Liu family is not a Langjun, and the Li family is not only one lady, and the others are left to them. When Sanniang's marriage is decided, I will carefully find it for Wuniang. ”
"I don't hear me, it's coming to you soon." Wanhua didn't know when Shaohua became so agile that she couldn't even catch a single hair of her.
Shaohua hid behind the Ling clan and looked at Wanhua Jiao panting with a smile, "Don't be in a hurry, not in a hurry." A-Niang said that it will be mine after the matter of the third sister is decided. When I get married, I still have to ask my third sister for advice. ”
"You, you mouth, you are talking nonsense, I have to tear it today!" Wanhua was ridiculed by Shaohua so embarrassed that she was so angry that she caught her over again.
The Ling family was so troubled by them that they finally forgot that they were originally going to visit Yichen, and in terms of their attitude towards Yichen, the wives and concubines in the second room seemed to be in sync. In Xi Garden, the Ling family was talking with their two daughters, and there was also a mother and daughter whispering in Huansi Garden.
"Auntie, I'm not going to eat in Xiyuan tonight." Jinhua took off his shoes, climbed onto the soft couch, next to a few embroidery piers, and said reluctantly.
"The third lady and the fifth lady are bullying you again?" Su Shi turned his head, looked at Jinhua and shook his head, and asked curiously: "If not, why don't you go well, didn't you get along with them well before?" ”
"It used to be before, and we only met for a total of one meal a day, but now I've been with them for a day in the school, and I have to eat with them in the evening. Then, what should I do with my mother, I am lively with them, will I leave my mother alone? Jinhua coquettishly rubbed into Su's arms.
Su Shi caressed her face lovingly, and said with a smile: "What else do I say, it turns out to be this." My stupid lady, if you are doing well, A-Niang will be relieved. Then what if you get married in the future, can't you still bring me with you? Hearing Jinhua's words, Su Shi felt extremely warm. Since Jinhua stubbornly changed her name to "A-Niang" instead of "Auntie", Su's calf-protecting heart has become heavier.
Jinhua suddenly said sullenly: "I was ignorant before, I always made you angry, worried, and not good for you. But I look at the third sister now, because she has decided on someone, she will marry at any time, and she has time with her wife all day long. If you can't get along with A-Niang more now, if you get married in the future, you won't be able to see A-Niang. As he spoke, his eyes were a little sour.
Su Shi was also sad when he heard this, and took her into his arms and said, "Silly lady, if you want to see me, just come back after dinner." It's rare that Mrs. is not bad to you, and while the third lady is about to discuss marriage, you have to work harder. It's not that A-Niang doesn't want to help you, it's that I really can't help, and in the end it's Madame who is in charge. So, it's all up to you. ”
Jinhua turned over and sat up, looking at Su Shi with a puzzled expression, "But A-Niang, Brother Yichen has failed, do I still want to please him?" ”
Su Shi glared at her, and said angrily, "Who asked you to please Liu Jialangjun, since he has fallen off the list, even if you are willing to marry, your grandfather may not agree." I mean, while the three ladies are discussing marriage, you can walk around with the two ladies more, and maybe pull you back. No matter how bad it is, if you meet the old lady again, you can still behave again. ”
Jinhua said aggrievedly: "Last time, Mrs. deliberately scolded me. ”
Su Shi stroked her head and said bitterly, "You don't understand last time, the old lady of the clan brought the county lord to see the third lady, and you robbed her of the scenery, and the lady was naturally unhappy." You look cautiously next time, if Mrs. wants to palm the eyes of the five ladies, you should keep a low profile and don't collide with the five ladies. ”
"Do I have to lose to them!" Jinhua unwillingly complained.
"Why are you still thinking about these things in your head, what is losing, you are different from them, how can you compare." Su Shi was so angry that he shook her a few times, and said distressedly: "Remember, as long as you don't fight with the fifth lady, give your lady a long face in front of outsiders." Madame loves face, and she will think of your goodness. ”
Jinhua puffed out her face and refused to say a word, Su Shi was in a hurry, shook her body and asked, "You have something to say." ”
"Got it." Jinhua was sullen.
Su Shi was satisfied, sighed, and said lightly: "Fan Erlangjun High School, Mrs. can be proud of heaven this time, but ...... Hehe, I hope she can be proud to the end. ”
"Just what?" Jinhua looked over curiously.
Su Shi suddenly raised the corners of his mouth, his eyebrows and eyes looked pretty, and he pulled the hair around his ears, and suddenly he was full of charm. Xu is thinking of Ling's deflated appearance, she was in an extremely happy mood, "Although the county lord and lady personally came to see the three ladies, but in the end, there is no matchmaker." Now it looks like the lady is proud, in fact, the county lord is more beautiful, and now the feudal Erlang is more sasked than before, who knows if the county lord still recognizes the previous words. ”
Jinhua covered his mouth incredulously, not daring to speculate on that imagination.
