Early in the morning, the two courtyards of Cuiliuju seemed to be busy. Due to the queen's funeral, the previous move could only be suspended, but now that the 27th has passed, this side has been restarted. According to Aunt Luo's meaning, the furniture in Chen Qing and Chen Han's room should not be replaced with new ones, but Chen Xi persuaded her to be less public, so she didn't insist. Aunt Luo went to the main room again, she asked Mrs. Xu to show her, and finally got her wish and went over to help Chen Qing and Chen Han in person.

At this moment, seeing the stout servants carrying large and small things to the cart in the middle of the road outside the door, tying up and putting straw, she had no choice but to go over and give instructions. As for the people living in the small courtyard in the northwest, they were also the last two aunts and a few concubines to relocate, but she didn't pay attention to it at all, and only let the old and weak pack and move by themselves. Chen Xi couldn't look at it, and wanted to let his girl help, but she was taught a lesson by Aunt Luo, and when she was sulking, she woke Chen Lan up.

One of the two aunts has long fallen out of favor and stayed in Beijing with Mrs. Xu for many years, and the other has been in Yunnan for many years, Chen Ying didn't take her with her when she went home twice before, and she almost didn't even see Chen Ying in person after returning to Beijing with a daughter this time. The rest of the Banniang and Jiuniang all grew up in Jingshi, and their biological mother died a long time ago, and they didn't even take a serious name. Although they have a nursing mother, but now they have hardly even been out of the courtyard gate, seven or eight years old when they see the living people are afraid, at this time in order to move, the two were dragged out by someone, but they were so scared that they cried all the way.

Just when this was almost like a group of people fleeing and passing by the road behind the main house of the Tatexiang Courtyard, it happened that Chen Lan had seen the Zhu family, and got the news of Chen Xi and came out of the back door, planning to go to the Qingxi Residence to see Mrs. Xu to remind her, and by the way, to see how the situation was, but at a glance, I saw a middle-aged mother scolding in her mouth, and even reached out and pinched the child's arm on the side.

"What is this doing?"

The middle-aged mother was Ba Niang's nurse Mother Lu, she never expected that someone would suddenly come out of the door over there, and it was Chen Lan who started the way, and the action in her hand suddenly fell under the eyes of others. In a panic, she hurriedly let go of her hand, put her hands on her knees and saluted, and then Ai Ai said: "Third Miss, the little one is afraid that Miss Eight will cry and disturb the old lady, so I reminded her to ......"

"Reminder?"

Chen Lan raised his eyebrows, he was about to have a seizure, but he thought that the Zhu family was in the courtyard behind him, so he forced himself to press it down, glanced at Lu's mother coldly, and then slowly stepped forward.

In addition to Chen Xi and Chen Qing and Chen Han in the third room, even Chen Ting rarely goes out, not to mention the three concubines who may not even have a family tree, so she has no impression of Liuniang and Baniang Jiuniang. Seeing that these two little girls were urged by a mother next to them, they cowered and came forward to salute, thinking of the brilliance of the three children under Aunt Luo's name, and remembering the words that Chen Xi had just made people piggyback, she sighed in her heart, so she helped people up one by one.

Banniang was wearing a dark red jacket, the color was completely indistinguishable, and the fabric only looked like Songjiang Yunbu, but it should have been some years. Jiuniang is a lotus-colored slanted shirt, a simple style color, not even a trace of pattern embroidery, and the cuffs have been turned up with raw edges. The satin shoes of the two are also half-used but not new, and there are only two silver butterflies on their heads, which originally seemed to be a pair, but they are dismantled into one for each person.

After looking at it for a while, she unconsciously remembered the month when she was sick in bed to recuperate, and while the new things and good things were sent out with continuous flow, Qin Fang rummaged through the old clothes and old gadgets found in the inspection, but they were also much stronger than the two of them. After letting go of her hand, she asked Lai's mother behind her without looking back, "The new residence of the eighth sister and the ninth sister has been cleaned up?" ”

"Third Miss, it's long gone." Lai's mother took two steps forward, her eyes swept over the two timid young ** children, and then she said with a smile on her face, "It's still the same as before in Cuiliuju, it is a small cross-courtyard in the northwest, an east wing and a west wing, the two ear rooms on the left are where Aunt Feng lives with Miss Liu, and the two ear rooms on the left are Aunt Hua." ”

Since that time, Chen Yun confessed that the marriage that Mrs. Runingbo first came to ask her to marry was said by Lai's mother, and Chen Lan didn't like her very much, but now is not the time to take this matter, so she just nodded lightly, and then said: "Okay, I'm fine now, just go over and have a look." ”

Chen Lan said this, and the rest of the people naturally didn't have anything to say, so they responded one after another. When I arrived at Qingxi Residence, I saw that a big car that came from the morning was busy unloading things, and a large number of servants were in a mess, busy with Zhang Luo, and Aunt Luo was also there. As soon as the two sides touched together, Aunt Luo stepped forward with a smile, and when she heard that Chen Lan had met Banniang and Jiuniang, she glanced at the two little girls in surprise, and the smile on the corner of her mouth deepened.

"If it weren't for this relocation, I would hardly have known that Ba Niang and Jiu Niang would have grown so big. is still the third lady thoughtful, Ba Niang and Jiu Niang are so small, and there are only so few people around them, if they don't take care of some, they will inevitably leave something. As she spoke, she called the two servant women over, and then she couldn't help but order, "You two, go and help Miss Eight and Miss Nine to take care of it." ”

Aunt Luo is not the head of the house, so what is the situation of the eight mothers and nine mothers is naturally none of her business, so she reprimanded Chen Xi just now, but at this time, she is happy to be a good person in front of Chen Lan. Although Chen Lan understood her little thoughts, she didn't bother to pay attention to so much at this time, and after pointing out Banniang and Jiuniang to thank her, she took people straight to the small cross-courtyard.

Although it was in the same direction, it was much more spacious than Cuiliuju's side, and she asked the two nurses to take the girls to clean up, and she called Banniang and Jiuniang to the east ear room to talk. As soon as she asked three or two sentences, she found that although the two of them were not young, they spoke in an incoherent manner, and when they asked about the people around them, they were all afraid. Knowing that it is now expensive to spend those subordinates who bully the master, it may not be useful, and after asking Lai's mother, she learned that there are no new people here, so she thought about it carefully, and asked Qin Fang, who was accompanying her, to call the two nurses in.

"The two mothers have followed since the eighth and ninth sisters were children, and I won't say much else, you remember to be respectful and humble, and they will never forget your affection. Moving here, the place is bigger, I plan to give the third aunt, the sixth sister and the eighth sister and the ninth sister each add a girl next to them, not to mention that it is more appropriate to take care of the daily life, and it will be cheaper when the monthly money is distributed in the future. ”

Mother Lu was afraid that Chen Lan would investigate the matter of her pinching before, but when she heard the first sentence in front of her, she knew that it was a warning, and her heart shrank suddenly, and when she heard the latter sentence, she was even more cold in her heart, and when she glanced to the side uneasily, it happened that Mother Shen also looked over there. The two looked at each other, and they all hung their heads.

Eight Niang and Jiuniang have very little soft luggage, and there are only a few large pieces of furniture, so in less than a morning, both of them have been properly placed, and the remaining two aunts and Liu Niang are also similar. After arranging the things here, Chen Lan didn't go back to the Tatexiang Courtyard, and went straight to Cuiliuju, and as soon as he entered the main room, he saw Chen Ting holding the hand of the nurse and coming out of the east room. She opened her mouth and screamed, and Chen Ting immediately broke free of the nurse's hand and ran up.

"Three Sisters, Three Sisters"

Although Chen Ting was a little afraid of life, the child's eyes were bright and honest, and he could see who was good to him, so he drew Chen Lan into the ranks of good people in three or two strokes earlier. At this time, he rushed forward, and he raised his head with a staggered eye, which suddenly made Chen Lan difficult. You must know that she came here at this moment to have something to say, where can she carry any gadgets like usual, so after thinking about it and thinking about it, she still spreads her hands. At this moment, Chen Ting suddenly pursed his lips, and it was not until the nurse stepped forward to pull him with a funny face that he reluctantly walked outside, and did not forget to turn his head when he came to the door.

"Okay, go ahead, let the kitchenette make you Hu Biscuit tomorrow"

Seeing Chen Ting leave in high spirits, Chen Lan shook his head with a smile, and entered the east house with Wu's mother, who came out to greet him. Seeing Mrs. Xu in filial piety clothes sitting on the west end of the kang, she hurriedly stepped forward to salute and say hello, and after sitting down and saying a few words, she talked about meeting Ba Niang and Jiu Niang in the middle of the road today. Sure enough, hearing the clothes on Banniang and Jiuniang, as well as Mother Lu's move of reaching out to pinch Banniang, Mrs. Xu's brows immediately twisted into a knot.

Mother Wu, who was on the side, immediately coughed dryly when she saw this, and then smiled and said, "Third Miss, some things are really ...... Madame has been in poor health since she had the Sixth Young Master, and she almost didn't take care of the family in the previous years, and she spent most of her time in the house. This manpower is all dispatched by the second lady in advance, and the monthly money is also received by each of them, and the satin clothes are given in all seasons, and as for the rest, the lady has always thought that it will be over when the division is complete, and she didn't pay attention to so many ......."

"Don't say it" Mrs. Xu suddenly interrupted the nagging Mother Wu, and then looked at Chen Lan and said, "You have arranged such a thing, you can not tell me, but now that I have run away in person, I think you also know that I will not deliberately treat them." You think well, but if you shouldn't say something, the affairs in this house are so complicated, if it weren't for the old lady waking me up now, I still wouldn't want to care about anything, and this tired mind wouldn't be a day or two. ”

"I understand the difficulties of the third aunt." Chen Lan knew that although Mrs. Xu was indifferent to her children, she was not so bad as to deduct points or make people treat her children harshly, but her indifference naturally indulged those subordinates. At this time, she nodded when she said this, and finally said solemnly, "These details may be just trivial matters on weekdays, but if you really want to make a fuss, you are the mother of the third room, and being harsh is the best reason." ”

The word responsibility made Wu's mother pale, and Mrs. Xu's face turned paler. And Chen Lan, who spoke, did not show it on his face, but he smiled bitterly in his heart that he could be cold and his face after all, but in essence, he was a soft-hearted person after all, and since he saw it, he couldn't ignore it.

Moreover, Aunt Luo, who is so good at superficial kung fu, is already malicious to Mrs. Xu, but now the Luo family is booming, but the Xu family has fallen, God knows if she will take advantage of the topic to play? Mrs. Xu's health has always been bad, if there is anything good, not to mention anything else, then the little Chen Ting is the most pitiful. The world is cold and cold, and today's eight mothers and nine mothers are so embarrassed, who knows that tomorrow will not be the turn of those who are still glamorous at the moment, such as themselves, such as Chen Ting, such as Chen Yan?
