Chapter 19: The Repeated Attacks of the Four Girls
When he made the pair of chopsticks in the family temple that day, Su Zhaoning thought very clearly.
The real place where it will go will only be the real place where the things sent in the name of the second master, Su Jingzheng, really come from.
The second master of the Marquis Mansion of Chang'an is patriarchal, and he is just not tired of Su Rouhui, the daughter of his stepfamily, who is righted by his own hands, not to mention how much love he has for the other pair of daughters left by his deceased wife.
Su Zhaoning sat in the room and looked at the pair of hand-carved chopsticks on the table, thinking with some self-deprecation in her heart, thanks to her father's consistency over the years. Yes, this time, she can calculate that the chopsticks will really be delivered to the eldest girl Su Roujia.
And the eldest girl's treasury and the eldest young master's treasury are shared.
The more the three girls of the Chang'an Hou Mansion jumped, the more these chopsticks were sent to the eyes of the eldest young master, even if they were originally put on the shelf.
While thinking about it, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and the cool breeze of early spring made the back of Su Zhaoning's hand suddenly feel a little cold.
"Second sister, my mother asked me to call you to go with me to say hello to my grandmother." The fourth girl, Su Rouhui, stood at the door and looked at Su Zhaoning with a smile.
Su Zhaoning put the pair of chopsticks into the embroidery basket and stood up to go out.
But I only heard Su Rouhui say again: "Second sister, don't you forget, you still have to teach the third sister to embroider Que Beiwen." Don't you mention this embroidered basket? ”
Su Zhaoning stopped and looked at Su Rouhui.
I saw Su Rouhui's apricot eyes slightly raised, and there was an undisguised provocation on her face.
Su Zhaoning turned around and lifted the embroidered basket on the table, and said to Su Rouhui, "Thank you for the reminder, fourth sister." ”
Su Rouhui originally wanted to mock Su Zhaoning for her painstaking preparations, but she made a wedding dress for her. Now seeing Su Zhaoning's cold attitude and calm face, all the words of ridicule were pressed back into his abdomen.
She unhappily pulled off the handkerchief in her hand, turned around and walked quickly towards the courtyard of Old Madam Hou.
In the courtyard of Mrs. Hou, there were already five girls, seven girls and eight girls sitting on the table at this time.
Su Rouhui stepped in quickly, and said coquettishly to the old lady Hou: "Grandmother is fine, today grandmother's complexion looks as ruddy as the fifth sister next to her." ”
Old Madam Hou smiled and beckoned to Su Rouhui and said, "The mouth is so sweet, come and sit next to grandmother." ”
Su Rouhui was about to smile and pull Old Madam Hou's hand, but she only heard a choked call from behind her.
"Grandmother, the unfilial granddaughter Zhenyi has come to greet you." I saw the third girl, Su Zhenyi, being helped by the maid and walking unsteadily outside the door.
Her eyes were full of tears, and her face was full of tears, and she immediately threw herself down in front of Mrs. Hou when she entered the main hall.
Su Zhenyi choked up and said: "The granddaughter is not filial, so my grandmother is bothered." Yesterday, when her heart ached, her granddaughter had an epiphany that her grandmother was painstaking, and her hands and feet hurt each other, which made her grandmother feel so sad. Grandmother, granddaughter know wrong. ”
After speaking, Su Zhenyi kowtowed her head solidly.
Seeing that the forehead of the third granddaughter was a little red in an instant, Mrs. Hou stood up distressedly, personally helped Su Zhenyi up, and asked, "How is Zhenyi's body now?" ”
Su Zhenyi took Mrs. Hou's hand, helped the old lady back to the rosewood armchair, and replied, "Imperial Doctor Xu said that except for the injury on his foot, everything else is fine. ”
Old Madam Hou took Su Zhenyi's hand, asked her to sit down beside her, and sighed repeatedly: "That's good, that's good." ”
Su Zhenyi and Mrs. Hou have a deep relationship with their ancestors and grandchildren, and they care about each other, but Su Rouhui on the side is so angry that her veil is about to be torn.
Nothing else is serious, it seems that the delirious madness is also cured. Looking at the proud appearance of this outer room girl, I am afraid that the previous madness was also pretended!
The fire in Su Rouhui's heart could almost erupt from her mouth, but she was still sane, and she knew that she couldn't do anything with Su Zhenyi in front of Old Madam Hou.
She then turned her gaze, looked at Su Zhaoning coldly, and said to him: "Second sister is really lingering in the nunnery. When you come to my grandmother's house, you don't ask me to go to the room, and now I won't say hello when I see my grandmother. ”
The eyes of everyone in the room immediately moved to Su Zhaoning.
Su Zhaoning put the embroidered basket in front of Mrs. Hou, saluted and said, "I hope that grandmother will forgive her granddaughter, who stayed up until the end of the night in order to make two identical embroidered paper patterns last night." It was this morning that I missed the time to say goodbye to my grandmother. ”
Hearing the paper pattern, Su Zhenyi's eyes lit up. She hurriedly reached out and pulled the embroidery basket and took out the paper pattern inside to look at it.
I saw that the two pieces of paper were written with Que Bei characters, although the content Su Zhenyi couldn't understand, but the handwriting was really the same.
"Grandmother, look, this is Que Beiwen." Su Zhenyi brought the paper pattern to Mrs. Hou again, and the two of them put their heads together, as if they could both understand it.
Su Rouhui saw that Su Zhenyi got the pedal again and came to Mrs. Hou, and only hated her and Su Zhaoning in her heart.
I can't talk about it anymore, Su Rouhui said coldly: "I heard that the second sister is filial piety and made a hundred blessings for her grandmother, so that the eldest brother has no intention of knowing that you will be Beiwen." ”
"Sister, I've never seen a hundred blessings with Que Beiwen, I don't know if the second sister can show her face to my sister?" Su Rouhui is sure that Su Zhaoning in the family temple can't embroider a hundred blessings at all.
There is a clever woman who is difficult to cook without rice, and the sachet of the eldest brother is obviously made of a handkerchief, Su Rouhui doesn't believe that Su Zhaoning can really embroider a hundred blessings in the family temple.
Su Zhaoning blessed, and replied: "Zhaoning originally wanted to make a pair of Baifu pictures on his grandmother's birthday, but because Zhaoning was dull and in a little hurry, he only made one small thing. ”
"What little thing?" Su Rouhui looked Su Zhaoning up and down, but she really couldn't see that there was anything hidden on the other party's body.
She suddenly thought of a place, so she asked with a smile: "Could it be the same as the eldest brother, a sachet?" ”
Hearing that Su Rouhui wanted to accuse Su Zhaoning of not paying attention to her grandmother, Su Yingying, the seventh girl who was eating melons and fruits with the fifth girl and the eighth girl, couldn't sit still.
She climbed down and said with an innocent and ignorant face: "I know, this is just like the eldest sister once said that the eldest brother and we are going to give a gift to our grandmother, filial piety is precious." Big brother is an older brother, so it's just as important as grandmother, right? ”
Su Yingying moved the eldest girl out, just to make the fourth girl unable to play any further. It's a pity that Su Rouhui, who was dizzy by Su Zhenyi, couldn't extinguish the fire at all at this time.
She replied swiftly, "If it's all birthday gifts, it really doesn't matter. It's just that the second sister, what you gave to the eldest brother seems to be just an ordinary return gift? ”
"But didn't the eldest sister say that there is no distinction between preciousness and preciousness?" Su Yingying lowered her head and poked her fingers helplessly.
Su Zhenyi sat beside Mrs. Hou and just watched the dispute quietly.
The water in the second room is not shallower than that in the long room. Su Zhaoning wants to have a better time in the Marquis Mansion of Chang'an, and it will not be easier than her Su Zhenyi.
Su Zhaoning resisted the idea of immediately calming her sister's emotions, she stepped forward, but walked to the embroidered basket that was presented earlier.
I saw her take out the pair of chopsticks carved with the word "Fu" from the embroidered basket.
Su Zhaoning raised the chopsticks in front of Mrs. Hou and explained: "Zhaoning often remembers his grandmother in the family temple, and he also hopes that his grandmother will think of Zhaoning every day. Therefore, Zhaoning chose a piece of wood originally in the Buddhist hall to make a pair of chopsticks and dedicated it to his grandmother. I hope that when my grandmother sees chopsticks every day, she can think of Zhaoning. ”
Su Zhaoning slowly turned the chopsticks and showed the word "Fu" in that row to Mrs. Hou, she said: "The chopsticks can't engrave no less than a hundred blessings, and Zhaoning engraved nine blessing characters, hoping that grandmother will be blessed and healthy for a long time." ”
Mrs. Hou really didn't expect Su Zhaoning to prepare such a birthday gift for herself. She took the chopsticks from Su Zhaoning's hand, turned them around and looked at them, and asked in disbelief, "You said you carved this from the whole wood?" ”
Su Zhaoning nodded and replied, "Yes." Zhaoning did not have good craftsmanship and made dozens of pairs, which is the best pair. ”
Mrs. Hou was born in a powerful family, and married into a Houmen family, how could she have seen such rough chopsticks. It's just that this roughness really shows that Su Zhaoning's hand-carved theory is not false.
She couldn't help but ask again: "Then you also carved this word one by one?" ”
When this sentence was asked again, there was no longer the doubt in the previous tone.
Su Zhaoning plucked a lotus hairpin from her bun, presented it to Mrs. Hou, and said, "It was engraved with my grandmother's reward." ”
"My reward?" Mrs. Hou has many granddaughters, and she loves and is kind to her granddaughters, but she is indeed generous to her granddaughters. Therefore, recalling the one she didn't care about in the past, her own memories were a little blurry.
It's just that the pattern of the hairpin, Mrs. Hou is still very familiar. The lotus flower is her favorite, so it seems that it should indeed be her reward.
I saw that the end of this hairpin was sharpened, and the lotus petals were also exceptionally clear, which showed that it was often rubbed.
Old Madam Hou had a rare trace of love for Su Zhaoning in her heart. She stretched out her hand to help Su Zhaoning in person, and praised repeatedly: "Good boy, good boy." ”
Su Zhenyi, who was on the side, pinched her long nails into the pastries in her hands.
These chopsticks are obviously in the big girl's room. It's just that the fourth prince got it from the eldest young master and gave it to himself. In order to humiliate Su Zhaoning yesterday, he threw it in front of the other party.
But I don't want to be used by Su Zhaoning like this!
Su Zhenyi was annoyed in her heart, but she couldn't let out this anger. In her opinion, Su Zhaoning and Mrs. Hou's mother and daughter in the long house are embarrassment in the same boat, and they will only hook up with each other.
Since the person who sent it before was a big girl, what can I please now!
The eldest girl will definitely say that Su Zhaoning gave it to Mrs. Hou. She just didn't have time to take it out.
Maybe the two of them will unite and arrange that they are not in harmony with their sisters again.
Thinking of Su Zhaoning's ingenuity at the moment, which could be regarded as his own hands, Su Zhenyi was so stunned that she almost vomited out a mouthful of blood.
But she had to put a smile on her face and congratulate the old lady Hou: "Grandmother will definitely live a long life!" Zhenyi was sick a few days ago and couldn't give a congratulatory gift to her grandmother in time, today Zhenyi must cook in person, and show off the skills taught by her grandmother, grandmother must not dislike it! ”
"You girl, let's take care of your feet. The days with my grandmother are long! For Mrs. Hou, the love evoked by Su Zhaoning was only temporary, and she liked Su Zhenyi from the bottom of her heart.
Now hearing Su Zhenyi speak like this, Mrs. Hou only thought she was eating, so she hurriedly patted Su Zhenyi's hand again to appease her emotions.
Next to the main hall, there was a person who was already so angry that he was cold!
