When Zhong Xiaoxin entered the door, Ginkgo's excited face turned red, of course, half of it was also because of the good noon sun.

"Sister Zizhu, Kuju, come and take a look. Ginkgo shouted as soon as she entered the door, if it weren't for the fragile items such as tea sets in her hands, Zhong Xiaoxin estimated that she would have to jump all the way. "Look at it, this is the tea set that the second wife appreciated. As she spoke, she put the tea set on the room in the house, and put it on the bed. The tea set is packed in a wooden box, and the outside of the box is coated with a layer of lacquer, and the packaging is not as good as Zhong Xiaoxin's Taobao goods in the previous life, but for Qiluo Courtyard, it is really a high-end product. Kuju Yahuan put the cloth and immediately came over, and the two little girls circled around the wooden box excitedly.

Zhong Xiaoxin smiled: "Turn around, open it." So saying, he went over and opened the wooden box. The box was a layer of yellow silk, and when I opened it, I saw the tea set inside. It is a complete set of celadon relief raindrop peach blossoms, green background black embossed red plum, the pattern is very elegant, a pot of six cups, a sea of tea and a tea drain, Zhong Xiaoxin's master and servant were stunned, I didn't expect Xiao Shen to make such a beautiful set of tea sets, isn't it said that the Hou Mansion is very poor?

Kuju is a 12-year-old young girl, and she was shocked and shouted on the spot: "Miss, the second wife is really good to you, how much does such a good set of tea sets cost?" In fact, what she wanted to ask more was, is it okay to use such a delicate thing to drink tea? It is more valuable than the shrine offered in front of the Buddha.

Zhong Xiaoxin didn't answer her, she didn't know how much this tea set should be worth, and she wasn't sure if this thing was good or not, there was such a thing in a shopping mall in her previous life.

Zizhu snorted fiercely, poked Ku Ju's brain with his finger and scolded: "What a rare thing, there is a little benefit leaking from the cracks of people's fingers, your heart is going over there, the second wife is so good, why don't you go with the second wife, and come back to do something?"

"Sister Zizhu, I'm not ......" Kuju burst into tears with grievance.

Zizhu poked her two steps back with the last poke, and said: "Over there have treated us like dead people for more than ten years, and now they are good to us all of a sudden, who knows what kind of heart Ann has, you treat her as a good person? If you sell it, you still have to help others count the money? Don't forget, those who are stepmothers don't have many good things." ”

After Zizhu finished speaking, Ku Ju realized that his words had poked into people's hearts, and the fingers on his head were not wronged at all, and he hurriedly begged for mercy: "Good sister, I said the wrong thing." ”

Zizhu snorted and received the supernatural powers, Zhong Xiaoxin sighed, Ku Ju, this girl, doesn't have to expect her to give birth to a brain in this life.

Zizhu's mother, that is, Zhong Xiaoxin's nurse Fang's, was rubbed under her stepmother's hands back then, and was taken by her stepmother for her mother's dowry, as a pig and dog, and changed her to a scoundrel, so that Fang's younger brother could marry the scoundrel's sister-in-law, when Fang's was pregnant with Zizhu, the scoundrel owed money to the gambling house, and also moved people to hurt people, afraid that people would be held accountable and ran away, Fang's confinement was done by himself after giving birth to a child, otherwise he would not have ruined his body, and he died of illness in his 30s. Fang's family suffered a lot before entering the Zhong Mansion, and in the end, it was the stepmother who did the evil, so she protected Zhong Xiaoxin for so many years, and she didn't dare to let the young lady go to her stepmother's eyes at all, because she was afraid that she would be harmed, and before she died, she asked Zhong Xiaoxin to sell it in front of the big house. Zhong Xiaoxin and the other two maids all knew about this, and the Fang family would sometimes say it again when they remembered that their lives were hard, but Zizhu, as Fang's biological daughter, felt it even more.

In fact, in Zhong Xiaoxin's opinion, the second wife's stepmother is actually quite good, people don't care about you, at least they haven't harmed you in the past ten years, and in the case of a few people in Qiluo Courtyard who are self-reliant, they have not stopped it, and it can be regarded as giving a few people a way to live. It's just that Zhong Xiaoxin won't say this kind of thing, and if she says it, it will make Zizhu feel bad, it is the hatred of her mother-in-law Fang for the rest of her life.

The quarrel between Zizhu and Kuju here is over, only Ginkgo is still looking at this tea set bitterly, thinking bitterly.

"Ginkgo, what do you want. Zizhu frowned and said. Thinking about this girl, don't say something like stepmother is too good.

Ginkgo looked at someone and asked, but hesitantly said, "Why do I think this tea is strange?" ”

Other people were also shocked when they said this, but from the beginning, they also felt a little bit like this in their hearts, and they always felt that this tea set was different from other things, and a few people had just finished arguing about the terrible stepmother, and when Ginkgo said this, Zizhu was also nervous and pushed Zhong Xiaoxin away, ensuring that she was far away from the tea set, and then carefully inspected the tea set inside and out.

When she checked it for the third time, Zhong Xiaoxin sighed and said, "Don't look at it, the tea set is fine, it's our house that has the problem." ”

"What's wrong with the house?" asked Ginkgo.

"This house is too dilapidated, and the things in the house are too dirty, too old and too messy, so it seems that this tea set is out of place, which is very strange. Zhong Xiaoxin said. To put it bluntly, this tea set and the whole room, the style does not match, and the painting style is not uniform.

"That's right. Kuju suddenly realized. Then he happily said, "Then let's clean up." "Just do it, take the rag and start wiping the table.

"Where is there time to sweep the house. Zizhu scolded her again, "The cloth over there should not be cut quickly, so that the young lady can make clothes." ”

"I'll take the clothes. Ginkgo hurriedly said: "If you don't embroider, cut it this afternoon, and sew it out tomorrow day, so as not to delay Miss to wear it the day after tomorrow." ”

Zizhu nodded and said, "I'll help you, and I can make two more new clothes for Miss." "It's rare to have new materials to make new clothes, and if there are two people, you can also embroider some simple flowers.

The three of them had something to do, and Zhong Xiaoxin also nodded and said, "Then I'll go to the courtyard for a while, you don't have to worry, the good days in the future have just begun." "The new tea set and new clothes are just one of the humble gadgets. For Zhong Xiaoxin now, basking in the sun is a big deal, even if you can only see the shadow of the tree in the Qiluo Courtyard, but no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat, and at noon, the shadow of the sun in the shade of the tree can also be collected.

Zizhu and the others were busy.

Zhong Xiaoxin ran to the yard, the yard has not been taken care of for many years, Zhong Xiaoxin looked for it, a wooden basin that Kuju Xiaoyahuan often uses to wash clothes was put aside, Zhong Xiaoxin ran over and put the basin on the ground and sat on the bench.

Since she went out, the fragments of the sun's light points fluttered and gathered towards her again, this time the speed was slower than going to Xiao Shen's before, if the speed of the light points before was ant crawling, then the current speed can be called a snail crawling, Zhong Xiaoxin sat on the wooden basin, holding her face with her hands, she needed some time to think about something. For example, this seemingly easy to use is actually quite a pitty immortal cultivation system, and for example, the three big girls with different personalities around her, and her relatives who are both familiar and unfamiliar and her future in the Hou Mansion.

This thought brings to mind the setting sun.

When Zhong Xiaoxin could no longer gather any light spots, someone came to the courtyard of the second wife, Xiao Shen, urging her to have a reunion dinner in the second room.

Only then did she remember that she still had a real father she hadn't seen.
