Chapter 81: Rumors
When Nie Xiaoyue saw Nie Xiaofan's perfunctory face, she knew that she must not believe it. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info hurriedly said: "It's true! I heard Aunt Yu tell me." You see, mother, they don't want us to go back to live. ”
Nie Xiaofan has a strange experience and is in awe of everything in the world. But I still don't believe in ghosts and ghosts.
Xu wanted to prove that he was right, Nie Xiaoyue hurriedly said: "When my grandfather was an official outside, it was rumored that the ancestral house was haunted, which frightened my grandmother. My grandmother decided to move to the capital with my father and uncle. Nie Xiaoyue was still a little scared when she said it, so she leaned closer to Nie Xiaofan in the bed.
Nie Xiaofan took her shoulder and said softly: "The elders don't let us live in the ancestral house, I'm afraid it's because the ancestral house is in disrepair." The haunted theory must be that Aunt Yu remembered it when she was young. Otherwise, the third sister has lived in Changping for so long, why hasn't she heard of it?"
Nie Xiaoyue still said: "Sister Fan, when you didn't arrive just now, I listened to my mother say that Feng Shui is not good, and the children are afraid that it will be an obstacle to live for a long time." At that time, the second sister and the two elder brothers were both stunned for a moment, obviously not knowing. Besides, sister, you are a fairy-like character, who would say these things in front of you?
"But it just so happened that you arrived at that time, and you know what happened next. ”
The smile on Nie Xiaofan's face froze, in this way, I am afraid that there are really "ghosts" in the old mansion. If Old Madam Nie was really frightened, then she hinted that Old Madam Nie Baijun would send her back to the ancestral house, but she was crooked and stepped on Old Madam Nie's sore spot.
Nie Xiaoyue was still young after all, and her eyelids fought before she could say a few words, and Nie Xiaofan lulled her to sleep. Get up cautiously again, for fear of waking her up.
Nie Xiaoyue said in a daze: "Sister Fan, you are really similar to Sister Qiaoqiao." ”
Nie Xiaofan was speechless, your sister is playing a lady now, okay?
Nie Xiaoyue turned over and muttered, "It's very safe to be with you." ”
Nie Xiaofan smiled, tucked the quilt for her and walked outside.
"What did Old Madam Zhou say?" Nie Xiaofan asked Liu Yu.
Liu Yu said: "I didn't say anything, I just didn't have a chance for the time being." ”
Didn't say anything? I didn't want to say anything, or didn't show it to Liu Yu?
Nie Xiaofan groaned, and Liu Yu stepped forward again and presented a small brocade box: "The old lady said that she got some good blood swallows a few days ago, and told the slave maid to bring them back to make up for the girl's body." I also explained that you are now in charge of everything in your family, so don't work too hard. ”
Nie Xiaofan said: "Take it and keep it." You're tired of the day, rest early, get up early tomorrow to pack your things, let's go back to Changping. ”
"Really?" Liu Yu couldn't believe it, she would be able to see her mother soon. Nie Xiaofan nodded gently.
Liu Yu went down, Nie Xiaofan lit a few more lamps by himself, looked at the book and waited for Lian's.
The door outside was wide open, and the chirping of summer cicadas did not disturb Nie Xiaofan. Xu knew that he would return to Changping tomorrow, and Nie Xiaofan's heart was much more stable. In her heart, the original Nie Xiaofan belonged to Changping, and if she could go back at this time, even if she couldn't stay there for the rest of her life, it could be regarded as a fallen leaf returning to her roots. In this way, she can solve this regret.
Lian's came after a while, and she didn't want to spend the night in the house, so she had to explain everything before leaving.
"That girl is asleep?" asked Lian Shi lightly.
Nie Xiaofan smiled: "It's late at night, Sister Xiaoyue can't stay up." It's my aunt who has worked hard. Busy until now. ”
Lian Shi waved his hand: "I'm not hard, what's the matter? Which of these children can't count on me? None of them are as sensible as you and Xiao'e." I can also worry less. ”
Lian's words were sad, not like her temper in recent days.
Nie Xiaofan still smiled lightly, and Lian Shi said again: "This is not just the frame of your father and daughter. lest you be in a hurry tomorrow. Tomorrow morning, you have to go and say hello to the old lady, presumably you won't be able to leave. Do you think you're going to have lunch and leave, or are you going to leave in the afternoon?
Nie Xiaofan said: "Let's go in the afternoon, I just arrived at the other courtyard in the evening." As for Qiaoqiao, he must have gone with me. You notify her, and I'll pick her up tomorrow. ”
This arrangement is also detailed, Lian nodded. And he said, "What are you going to do with your grandmother?"
Nie Xiaofan knew that Lian was unwilling to take Old Lady Nie back to Changping, and to be honest, she didn't want either. Nie Xiaofan said: "I heard that my grandmother was frightened in the ancestral house when she was young, so she moved to the capital. At this time, she is probably reluctant to return to her hometown, right?"
Lian Shi hurriedly waved his hand: "What's the matter? She was only for the high branches of the Zhou family... Yes, the old lady should be unwilling. After Lian finished speaking, he laughed out loud. Thinking of the inopportune time again, he hurriedly smiled. Lian suddenly changed his words, and Nie Xiaofan also felt funny.
The two held back a smile, and Lian continued to finish speaking. According to Lian's understanding, it was originally the current Zhou You who was elected as the eldest prince in the past year, that is, the companion of today. At that time, Nie Wang felt that his sister-in-law's son had climbed into the royal family, so he had to promote his family. So he moved to the capital with his two sons.
Coincidentally, there were unlucky words in the ancestral house at that time, and Nie Wang claimed that he was frightened, but no one believed it. Because Nie Wang's family was repeatedly rejected by her sister-in-law at that time, people were more willing to treat her as a joke. It's all like she's here to climb the high branches.
This is the Lian family's rhetoric, since they have decided not to go in and live, Nie Xiaofan doesn't care too much about the affairs of the ancestral house, just listen to it.
Lian said: "The ancestral house in Changping is called Licheng Street, and many people have moved away. It does have an unlucky reputation, because the Nie family's children and grandchildren are few and expensive, so they don't let you live in it. I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if..."
Nie Xiaofan said: "Auntie is very thoughtful. "But is that the leak coming because of that?
Lian Shi thought for a while and said, "Fanfan, your mother is gone. If there is anything, you can tell your aunt, but don't keep it in your heart. ”
Nie Xiaofan didn't know why she suddenly said this, but just said: "I know that my aunt loves me, if there is anything, I will be the first to tell my aunt." ”
Lian sighed and said, "Xiao'e... I grew up watching her grow up. Of these sisters of yours, she alone is the one who knows the general idea. Even Sister Lan is better than her. When your mother was there, you liked her too. Reasoning, you should be very close..."
It turned out that he came to persuade peace, Nie Xiaofan said: "Auntie is too worried, I am naturally close to my second sister." It's just that there are some things that disagree. It's all over the place. You can rest assured. ”
Of course, Lian is not at ease, these two sisters are sensible, and ordinary trivial things can't make them turn against each other... But what could she do?
"Since you say so, my aunt is naturally relieved. Lian smiled bitterly, but he didn't dare to persuade deeply.
