017 A group of girls
However, Zhong Xiaoxin said go, but Ginkgo still turned her head and asked Zizhu, "Sister Zizhu, are we going?" Zhong Xiaoxin realized that what Ginkgo had been asking before was actually what Zizhu meant, and she thought that this girl was waiting for her to make an idea, but in fact, it was Zizhu who had always taken the idea in this Qiluo Courtyard.
Zizhu didn't look at others, concentrated on embroidering flowers, and said in his mouth: "Miss said to go, let's go." ”
"Oh. Ginkgo biloba and bitter chrysanthemum agreed.
In this Zizhu Temple, Zizhu's words are orders. Zhong Xiaoxin has always had a soft temperament, and Zizhu will scold people with a bad tone when she gets angry, and never show mercy just because she is a young lady. However, since she woke up from the lake and was scolded twice by Zizhu while crying, Zizhu has gradually rarely scolded her in the past few days, and she will no longer have any ideas for her. Zhong Xiaoxin's eyes were clear, she thought of something, the jade bracelet she gave to Zizhu last night, Zizhu has not returned her, it stands to reason that they have now shown their faces in front of the Zhong family, Mrs. Hou will definitely not dare to kill her quietly, maybe she has to be treated well, whether it is Xiao Shen or Mrs. Shizi will not be too embarrassed in life, there is no need to sell the bracelet if the life is passable, and there is no chance to go out, but Zizhu seems to have forgotten about it.
Zhong Xiaoxin sighed secretly, if Zizhu really forgot, or even if she was greedy for money and wanted to hide the bracelet, she was afraid of her......
Zhong Xiaoxin was thinking nonsense here, there was someone in the yard over there, this time someone knocked on the courtyard door, and when Ginkgo sent Song's mother out before, she slammed the door upside down.
Zhong Xiaoxin is helpless, she is thinking about Zizhu here, and she is afraid that outsiders will come, but she keeps coming one by one today.
Zhong Xiaoxin was annoyed, and when she waited for someone to enter the door, she would be directly annoyed and frightened,......
More than 20 people came in, most of them were young girls over ten years old, and there were also two adult mothers-in-law, Kuju opened the door here, and the warblers and Yanyan came in together, chattering and laughing while looking, and the whole Qiluo courtyard was full of warblers and swallows, Zhong Xiaoxin instantly felt that he had gone to the wrong flower building, and he was catching up with the business hours of others......
"Miss, ladies and gentlemen, see you're here. Kuju briefly introduced.
Zhong Xiaoxin really wanted to cry this time. If she remembers correctly, it seems that Kuju told her before that there were eight concubines in the second room, so it wouldn't be together, wouldn't it be a life?
Soon everyone entered the house, Zhong Xiaoxin took a look, from the clothes to the can also pick out which one is the miss, counted exactly 8, and couldn't help but sigh again The second master's iron-clad father-in-law's life, it is really "the family has ten thousand gold", in fact, among the 8 young ladies, at least 5 are of the same age, all between 10-13 years old, just three are younger, but they also look 7.8 years old. It seems that 10 years ago it was the peak of fertility in the second room.
After coming in, several older ladies gathered around Zhong Xiaoxin, this one said, "Big sister, I heard that you are not in good health, are you okay?" and the other said, "If you are not in good health, you can rest more, how can you make clothes and copy scriptures, don't be tired and sick again." "I can only drink porridge when I am sick, and I can't eat a good meal." ”
Another said, "Oh, big sister, why do you have to make your own clothes to wear, what do those needlework people do?" "One more, big sister, why is your yard so deserted, and the things you use are too old, they should have been replaced with new ones in the autumn." "Big sister, there are too few people serving here, do you want me to talk to my mother about adding a few more people." ”
Then someone said, "Second sister, will you go to the banquet in three days?" "What did you say? Where did the big sister get new clothes and new jewelry to go to the banquet?" "If the big sister really doesn't have any clothes, I'll give the big sister one, my father has been doing well recently, so he made me and my aunt one more dress." "As if no one had one, my aunt and I brought me new jewelry in addition to clothes. "It's just a pearl earring, what a good thing, look at my garnet bracelet." "I ......"
Zhong Xiaoxin's house immediately became a tea party. said that she came to see her, but in fact, no one waited for her to talk, and ignored her to speak, several older girls and maids gathered together, some of them walked around her dilapidated house and watched, and the words were sarcastic about the poor life of the eldest lady of the Zhong family; The three young ones didn't seem to talk much, and two of them also looked at Zhong Xiaoxin's dilapidated house and bed as if they were traveling, and they didn't look like they had seen it. The other is about 9 or 10 years old, and when she enters the door, she lowers her head and doesn't say a word, but when she thinks Zhong Xiaoxin hasn't noticed, she will quietly raise her head and stare at Zhong Xiaoxin blankly.
Zhong Xiaoxin didn't understand what they were here for, beckoned to Ginkgo to come to her side, and asked in a low voice, "What are these people doing?" She really didn't know.
Ginkgo also quietly replied to her.
It turned out that the second lady dragged the eldest lady into the house yesterday to make a big fuss, and then the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet was not so harmonious, and the people in the Zhong family clan said that the rules of the young ladies of the Hou Mansion were too bad.
You see. The eldest lady is a sin to eat meat in the Buddha hall, right? What about the second young lady, dragging the eldest sister to the main hall like a dead dog, there are no rules, I don't know if the eldest sister is like a mother? In short, in a word, the virtue of this Hou Mansion is not good.
In fact, Zhong Lichang has been married for so many years, married the daughter of the Bai family in the century-old Guogong Mansion (although it was later demoted to the Bofu), and the descendants of the two houses of the Hou Mansion add up to four, which is not too little, and he has already gained a firm foothold, where is the title of the Marquis Mansion that can be shaken by such a trivial matter. But it has become a habit in the Zhong family to find fault with them, and Mr. and Mrs. Zhong are afraid that it will become a habit, for this matter, Mrs. Hou spoke, from today onwards, the rules of the Hou Mansion will be renewed.
So these girls have to go to their mother-in-law every day to set up rules, a group of loose sheep in the past suddenly raised in a circle, of course it is uncomfortable, in line with the principle that others don't want to be comfortable if they are uncomfortable, these sisters will not come over to make Zhong Xiaoxin uncomfortable. Because this "rule incident" was caused by Zhong Xiaoxin.
After listening to this, Zhong Xiaoxin also sighed that this Hou Mansion is really simple, a group of girls are uncomfortable getting together to find her, and they are actually verbally sarcastic and show off jewelry and clothes, Zhong Xiaoxin doesn't take this thing to heart, you who don't hurt your muscles and bones are here to get some benefits.
As soon as I thought of this, the benefits came, and a girl screamed "ah", and hit the teacup on the table on the ground and shattered.
Zhong Xiaoxin glanced at the eyes of this girl, and the teacup was already a rare good cup in this Qiluo Courtyard.
"Big sister, I'm sorry, I wasn't careful. I'll pay you ......," the girl said with tears in her eyes and extremely aggrieved.
Zhong Xiaoxin: "......" told her to say something, do you seem to cry so much when you make a teacup? The acting skills can't be so abused, I haven't started scolding here.
