The next morning.

The eldest grandmother and Zhuang Yu went from Dongfu to Beifu to Zhefanggui Yingmao to go to school and copy scriptures. On the way, the eldest grandmother quietly signaled to Beeswax to go to Jinghua Xie, wanting to inform Yu Qi to come to Beifu and tell her about the pure light she met yesterday. Because pure light is not only as simple as suspicion, but also exports threats.

Beeswax came to Zhongfu and turned to Jinghua Xie. When I got inside, I saw Zisu feeding the parrots under the porch, so I asked Miss Qi and others. Zisu looked at her coldly, and only replied after a while that Miss Qi had gone to Beifu.

Yes, Yu Qi thought about it all night, and felt that what the eldest grandmother said the first day was right, as long as she went to Beifu, she didn't want to do it, and copied the scriptures in that place, and ended up clean. Therefore, I rushed there early in the morning, and I didn't give Zisu half a word. Zisu heard the footsteps, chased him out and took a look, only to know that Yu Qi went to Beifu.

Beeswax learned about it and hurried back to inform the grandmother.

Who knows, the eldest grandmother has already met with Yu Qi outside the gate of Beifu and talked to each other.

Beeswax saw that the eldest grandmother and Miss Qi had met, and when she hadn't been to Jinghuaxi, she stood on the side with knowledge of etiquette.

Right now, everyone gathered at the door, and waited for the sixth and seventh girls to arrive before they went in together. During the period, Zhuang Pu, Zhuang Jue, and Zhuang Yu came to the three brothers and sisters, and Zhuang Pu and Zhuang Yi were as enthusiastic and lively as before, but Zhuang Pu was very disdainful when he saw Yu Yu, snorted, and entered the door first, and went to Zhefanggui early.

When Yu Qi saw and heard these, he naturally felt uncomfortable. Fortunately, the rest of the people love to talk around her, and they can somewhat dissipate the depression in their hearts.

After a while, the sixth and seventh girls arrived. The people went to Zhefanggui. Because Yu Qi and the three siblings of Xifu had an unhappy relationship, they came to meet each other today, and they were embarrassed. Walking all the way, Zhuang Jue took the initiative to find a word, but Yu Qi deliberately avoided it and walked to the side of the grandmother.

At this moment, Yu Qi slowed down and walked away with the eldest grandmother, Zhuang Jue was interested, and walked away.

The eldest grandmother smiled and said to Yu Qi: "The third master loves to talk to the girl, and the girl ignores him, so he must have made the girl angry." ”

Yu Qi shook his head and smiled back: "It's not that I ignore him, it's that I don't know what to say if I'm too close." ”

The eldest grandmother smiled shyly again, not to mention it, she looked around, looked sideways to see if anyone was approaching, and saw no one, so she whispered: "Yesterday I came out of the girl's place, and I met Master Chunguang." It's also a coincidence, oh was going to say hello to the old lady. I didn't expect to meet her. ”

Yu Qi was shocked, his pace slowed down even more, turned his head to stare at the eldest grandmother, and said, "I heard that she has been in the Buddhist monastery. I guess the old lady wants to lock her up like this, sister-in-law, are you in? ”

The eldest grandmother shook her head and said, "No." I met him outside the Shouchu Gate. The people inside said that the old lady was not feeling well, and asked her to come to the house to give a lecture. Maybe I'm done talking. Know ahead of time, I'm not going yet! ”

Yu Qi worried: "What do you say? ”

The eldest grandmother looked worried, sighed slightly, and then said, "Not only recognize me, but also recognize you, girl." ”

Yu Qi exclaimed: "Speaking of me? ”

When he said this, his footsteps stopped.

The eldest grandmother was about to answer, and the sixth and seventh girls who walked in front greeted her: "Sister Qi, sister-in-law, you are slow." Hurry. ”

Because someone greeted him, it was inconvenient for Yu Qi to inquire again, so he only signaled to the grandmother in confusion, hurried forward, and approached Zhuang Yu and Zhuang Yu in sync.

Zhuang Yu saw the two chasing after him, and joked: "What are you two talking about?" Stay away from us. I didn't tell us anything interesting. ”

The grandmother's face was red.

Yu Qi replied: "I didn't say anything. The fifth sister made fun of us. How can something avoid you? It's better to be alone than to be happy, isn't it? ”

Zhuang Yu smiled coquettishly, and then muttered and scolded Zhuang Pu for being stingy. The eldest grandmother heard the contradiction between them from Zhuang Yu's words, so she said: "The second master is cheerful and direct on weekdays, and most of it is just a joke. Miss Qi doesn't mind any of that. ”

Zhuang Yu said: "My sister-in-law has been with Sister Qi for a long time, and I know Sister Qi's personality. Our second brother gets along with his family, not as good as Sister Qi, and the second brother treats us as strangers, bitter and hateful. I don't like him the most. On weekdays, I am in a good mood, I love you like something, but I am in a bad mood, and I treat the grass and mustard in general. No wonder Zisu was so angry. ”

When it comes to Zisu, the eldest grandmother doesn't dare to say anything.

Zhuang Yu followed aside, but said, "I heard that Miss Zisu is very knowledgeable. We folded Fanggui to open the hall, and I think it's a pity to be without her. If Sister Qi is willing to invite, please invite her for me. ”

Yu Qi was slightly stunned. Yes, Zisu's talent is above herself, if she really comes to fold Fanggui, everyone may not be as good as her, but her temper is now above Zhuang Pu, after being invited, how can the two of them get up? Besides, Zisu has a festival in Beifu, how can he be invited?

Zhuang Yu heard Zhuang Yu say that, and said, "Fourth sister, you think too much. Miss Su won't come. ”

Zhuang Yu said: "Why? ”

Zhuang Yu lamented: "If it were you and me, I wouldn't come." "Speak with a gesture in your eyes.

Zhuang Yu looked at Zhuang Yu's eyes and seemed to understand.

At that moment, everyone had walked under the gate of the Red Mansion.

Doorway. Sisters Zhuang Qi and Zhuang Ying were waiting there, and when they saw everyone from afar, they beckoned: "Don't hurry up, those steamed buns for breakfast are moldy." ”

Zhuang Jue rushed forward first, making a grimace to tease Zhuang Xuan, and Zhuang Xuan slapped him on the shoulder. Zhuang Jue stepped into the door and said, "Second brother eaten?" ”

Zhuang Xuan turned around and said, "He brought the rice bowl upstairs." I said that someone would clean up the food downstairs, and it could be added at any time, and the upstairs was very dirty. He didn't listen, and when I said a word, he scolded me and said, 'Your house is clean, and if I eat a steamed bun, your Beifu will be dirty.' 'Ouch, listen, I dare to say anything!' It's all your home, and I'm an outsider. ”

Zhuang Ying smiled and went in.

Later, Zhuang Yu, Zhuang Yu and others greeted with laughter.

Zhuang Yu said: "Second sister, you scolded well. I'm angry with Sister Qi. Sister Qi doesn't thank you, I thank you for her. Saying that, he gave Zhuang Ju a half-salute.

Zhuang Xuan pushed: "Ouch, you don't come." Let's get inside! While pushing Zhuang Yu and Zhuang Yu in, he took Yu Yu's hand and said, "My sister is better?" ”

Yes, Yu Qi didn't come for a few days, saying that he was not feeling well. Zhuang Qi and other sisters learned the real situation from Zhuang Yu, which was actually because of the conflict between Yu Qi and Zhuang Pu. Now goodbye to Yu Qi, Zhuang Qi does not dare to mention contradictory things, so as not to be embarrassed and disliked.

Yu Qi said gratefully: "Second Sister Xie cares, it's fine. I haven't been here for a few days, how many times have you copied your Buddhism? ”

Zhuang Xuan said: "I didn't copy the scriptures, but I talked to those two enemies about the article and the poem." My skull hurts. Come today, have a good match, and let them truce for a day. Suddenly remembered that the old lady had a headache, so she asked: "The old lady has a headache, is it okay?" ”

Yu Qi shook his head and said, "The old lady worships the Buddha every day, and she doesn't want us to see it." I've heard that it's been raised for a few days. When I came, I wanted to go to ask for peace, but she said that she had already gone to the temple. ”

Zhuang Qi responded with an "oh".

Zhuang Ying said: "It's really strange, the old lady's headache catches people off guard, and believing in Buddhism also catches people off guard, I can't think of it." ”

The sisters talked and laughed into the hall on the first floor.

Inside, the breakfast meal has been neatly arranged on the table, steamed buns with bean sauce, various pickles, and soup and fruits, which are very hearty. Even though the table was full, you could clearly see the dishes of the four families on it. For example, six or seven plates of gold-burning are from the North Mansion, four or five plates of blue and white porcelain plates are from the East Mansion, three or four white porcelain plates and bowls are from the West Mansion, and three or four dishes with crystal clear glaze are from the South Mansion. These were sent by the provinces in advance.

Dig deeper, the adults in each province think that they can't take all the responsibilities of the North Mansion, their children are here, and it is appropriate to have a part, which is a human reason. Therefore, according to the old lady's previous meaning, in addition to the silver, this is their own mind, private meaning. Cao also acquiesced, and did not shirk politeness.

At present, Zhuang Xuan takes care of it very well, the food comes from various provinces, but it is not arranged according to the various provinces, but is disordered, the colors are colorful, the food is of different shapes, and it looks very harmonious and pleasing to the eye. After coming in, Zhuang Xuan continued to beckon: "Hurry up and sit down and eat." After eating, we went upstairs to continue the poem that we didn't finish yesterday. ”

Zhuang Jue sat there eating, and after hearing this, he frowned and said to Zhuang Xuan: "Second sister, are you standing on my side or second brother's side today?" ”

Zhuang Yu glanced at Zhuang Yu and said, "I'm on my side, you guys stand alone!" Don't pull me. While talking, he gave the sixth girl and the seventh girl bean sauce.

Yesterday, several brothers and sisters wrote poems. Why Poetry? There is naturally a story in it, because it is said that the two brothers made a sacrifice, the old man read it a few times, and criticized that there was no literary brilliance at all, so they asked them to draft a few poems into it, and the rhythm had to be neat. The two brothers tried their best to think about it, wrote draft after draft, and were always not satisfied, so they mobilized the sisters to put down the scriptures and copy them, and entered into the discussion of composing poems. And Zhuang Pu still thinks that the new poems are better than the old poems, and he speaks the truth of the heavens, Zhuang Ju agrees with his words very much, so he stood on his side yesterday. Zhuang Jue is different, he is more old-fashioned, the article is not much new, and the rules are decent, and the rest of the people stand in line with him. Today, Zhuang Pu came to Beifu and said something to hit Zhuang Ju, so Zhuang Ju said this to Zhuang Jue. Obviously, Zhuang Xuan was angry.

Zhuang Jue couldn't get Zhuang Xuan's support, so he turned his head and asked Yu Qi: "Sister Qi, you must be on my side." I don't have to ask. ”

Yu Qi didn't know what poems and articles they wrote yesterday, and they didn't know about taking sides. Zhuang Jue said inexplicably, but she felt that she was deliberately laughing at her contradiction with Zhuang Pu.

Therefore, Yu Qi sank his face, did not answer, and ate a few bites at random.

When Zhuang Yu sat down, he said with a smile: "The white plate in our Xifu is the most conspicuous, white and pure. ”

Yu Qi looked at the white dish, it was indeed white and pure, but he thought in his heart: white on the outside and black on the inside, gold and jade on the outside, ruined in it, and some people are not ashamed!

In short, when I ate breakfast, Yu Qi didn't touch the white plate with a single chopstick. Zhuang Yu and Zhuang Yu noticed it, thinking that it was Zhuang Pu's matter that made Yu Qi angry.

Everyone stopped eating, Zhuang Qian beckoned the people to clean up, and then let them go up to the third floor.

When I got to the third floor, I didn't see Zhuang Pu. The rest of the people looked around, discussing where the second brother had gone. Yu Qi also looked around slightly. At that moment, Zhuang Pu's voice came from the corner: "Don't make trouble! I'm working hard! ”

Everyone looked for prestige, only to see Zhuang Pu sitting on the ground in the corner of the bookshelf, with a book covered with a book on his face, the title of which was "Tao Te Ching", and next to him, a plate of steamed buns and a bowl of porridge were placed.
