Chapter 46: Intimacy (4K)
Jiang Siniang's face flushed slightly, but she still said generously: "I'm asking your sister-in-law about Miss Wu'......" means that what she wanted to know just now has nothing to do with Zhou Huaili.
Zhou Yanli let out an "oh", seemed to be a little disappointed, looked at Jiang Siniang and whispered: "I thought you were inquiring about my fourth cousin." ”
"Why should I ask about a foreign man?" The flush on Jiang Siniang's face faded, and she said with anger: "Wednesday girl, in your eyes, am I such a frivolous woman who runs after men?" ”
Zhou Yanli saw that Jiang Siniang was angry, and hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Miss Jiang Siniang, you misunderstood!" You are mistaken! She bit her lip, swept her eyes around, and saw that no one else was near, so she took a few steps closer, and said to Jiang Siniang in a low voice: "Fourth girl Jiang, in fact, because my fourth cousin has always been good to me, I just want to help him." ”
Jiang Siniang glanced at Zhou Yanli up and down, took a step back, and said in surprise: "Don't you have a big brother?" Why are you so familiar with your cousin? ”
Zhou Yanli was suffocated, and after a long time, she said sarcastically: "I don't hide it from Miss Jiang, I am my eldest brother, it is better to be familiar with my fourth cousin." ”
"Why is that?" Jiang Siniang's eyebrows were raised high, very puzzled.
His own brother is not familiar with it, but he is so familiar with his cousin that he can say good things in front of strange women, Jiang Siniang can't understand this truth.
Zhou Yanli looked at Jiang Siniang's expression, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Does Miss Jiang Si not understand why I am closer to my cousin than my own brother?" ”
Jiang Siniang smiled, "This is your housework, don't talk about it with me as an outsider." ”
Zhou Yanli bowed her head silently. Walk to the edge of the verandah and stand still. Look up at the verandah outside at the verandah, where the mountains are verdant. He stood quietly for a while.
Jiang Siniang waited for a while, and saw that Zhou Yanli had been silent, thinking that she had nothing to say, and was about to turn around and leave, but heard Zhou Yanli speak again: "...... Miss Jiang Si, I don't know if you know, my eldest brother has been sick since he was a child, and he was soaked in a medicine jar. ”
Jiang Siniang stopped. "Oh," he said, "...... I used to hear my family talk about it once. ”
"Yes, a lot of people know. My eldest brother was so weak that he would faint when he sat at the table and ate, and then there was a big mess in the house, and my grandfather and uncle would immediately send the sergeants of the Divine General's Mansion everywhere to ask the divine doctor to come back and treat my eldest brother. But everyone knows that my eldest brother's illness was fundamentally brought from my mother's womb. Zhou Yanli showed a confused look on her face.
"Huh? So strict zhòng? Jiang Siniang was taken aback, and suddenly thought of the appearance of the eldest prince of Zhou that she had seen, and tilted her head and said, "...... But your eldest son looks good now. It doesn't look like a sick person at all. ”
Zhou Yanli glanced back at Jiang Siniang and continued: "...... I'm a concubine. Born by my aunt. Miss Jiang Si knows, right? ”
Jiang Siniang nodded, and said gently: "There is no way to go out of the concubine, we can't choose our own fathers and mothers, we can only choose what kind of person we are and what kind of path we take." ”
Zhou Yanli wiped the corners of her eyes gratefully and said, "Miss Jiang Si is a good woman, so I must tell you." ”
After a pause, Zhou Yanli continued: "...... The affairs of our family are not something that can be explained clearly in one or two sentences. In short, my family was the fourth cousin and the son, and my eldest brother just wanted to live, and my grandfather and uncle didn't have too high expectations for him. And because he has been sick all the time, and he is not with our brothers and sisters, he is naturally estranged. And my fourth cousin has always been the head of our brothers and sisters, he is generous, respectful, and loving, and the whole family likes him and gets along with him. I was timid since I was a child, and I didn't dare to play with other brothers and sisters, only my fourth cousin would not forget me, and he remembered to take me with him if there was anything. You say, why can't I get close to my fourth cousin? ”
"I see." Jiang Siniang nodded understandingly, and said sympathetically: "That's true." Your brotherly and sisterly affection comes from everywhere. But ......," Jiang Siniang changed her words, "your eldest brother is pitiful enough." When he was seriously ill, didn't you think to take care of him more? ”
Zhou Yanli was stunned, lowered her head and muttered, "...... My eldest brother doesn't pay much attention to us. ”
"Oh, that's no way." Jiang Siniang looked into the distance with a smile, "Okay, I understand now." You're a good one, I don't blame you. ”
Zhou Yanli breathed a sigh of relief, raised her eyes and smiled: "It's good that Fourth Miss Jiang understands." My fourth cousin is indeed a good person, but maybe he is too kind, so he endures the loss by himself, retreats again and again, and will not fight for it himself. I also want to help him as much as I can. As for what happened, it's not up to us girls to do it. ”
Jiang Siniang nodded, "That's right. Saying that, he also blessed Zhou Yanli, "Thank you for the wisdom of the Wednesday girl." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, feeling much closer than before, and stood hand in hand on the verandah, looking at the mountains in the distance and laughing.
……
Sheng Siyan left the maid at the door, entered the meditation room where Feng was resting, and saw that Hu Er's grandmother was also there, and called "second aunt" with a smile.
Yi Ren stood behind the railing outside, and listened to Zhou Yanli and Jiang Siniang's words word for word, and was very angry in his heart, thinking about what to say and listen to Sheng Siyan.
Soon Grandma Wu San and Grandma Cao of the Jiang family also came in, and then followed Zhou Yanli and the second, third and fourth girls of the Jiang family.
Everyone greeted each other again and returned to their seats.
As soon as Sheng Siyan served tea to everyone, he heard the voice of the maid at the door: "Duchess Zheng Guo, Grandma Tian, Grandma Song, and Girl Zheng have arrived." ”
The people in the room stood up together.
Old Madam Zheng walked in with her two daughters-in-law and little granddaughter Zheng Yue'er with a smile.
"Old Madam Zheng is so interested." Feng greeted her with a smile.
Of course, Old Madam Zheng came to see Sheng Siyan.
She nodded to Feng, Hu, Wu San, and Cao, respectively, and then grabbed Sheng Siyan's hand and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I saw you." I went to the Shengguo Mansion a few days ago. I heard your mother mention you. ”
Sheng Siyan hurriedly smiled and said, "Old Madam Zheng is sitting here." "I also personally held tea with her.
Old Madam Zheng saw Zhou Yanli. smiled kindly at her, "The third girl looks good, and the injury has healed, right?" ”
When Zhou Yanli was in Lamp Street, she helped Zheng Yuer block a stick, and Mrs. Zheng was very grateful to her.
Zheng Yuer got married more than a month after the Dengjie incident, and she married Zhang Maoyan, a tanhualang who was in the same imperial examination as Wang Yixing last year.
Now the Zheng family is the only girl Zheng Yue'er who is not married.
Zhou Yanli smiled and saluted, "Thank you Old Madam Zheng for remembering, I'm all right." You see. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and spun around in front of Old Madam Zheng.
"That's good, that's good!" Old Madam Zheng nodded in a good mood, and ordered someone to give Zhou Yanli a generous gift, "If you are well, you won't tell us, so you should be congratulated." ”
Zhou Yanli looked at Feng and didn't dare to make decisions on her own.
Feng Shi smiled and nodded, "Since it was given to you by Old Madam Zheng." Just take it. ”
Zhou Yanli thanked Mrs. Zheng at this time.
Grandma Cao also came over to greet Mrs. Zheng, and by the way, she called the three girls from her family to salute.
Mrs. Zheng also really praised the three girls of the Jiang family. They were all given a greeting gift.
Zheng Yue'er came over and grabbed Zhou Yanli's arm, and said with a smile: "Sister Zhou, Sister Jiang, I just saw them playing grass outside, let's go and have fun." As he spoke, he grabbed Sheng Siyan's arm with his other hand, looked at Sheng Siyan and said, "Sister Sheng, are you going too?" ”
She still called Sheng Siyan as before.
Sheng Siyan and the Zheng sisters have always been in the contract, and they also want to go and see it, but they are a little hesitant to think that they are already married women, and the fighting grass is played by the girls who have not left the cabinet.
Feng glanced at her with a smile and said, "It's okay, you can just go play with them." Speaking of which, you're younger than many of them, so don't limit your temperament. ”
Now that Feng Shi has spoken, Sheng Siyan can go generously, and she bowed to Feng happily and said, "Then I will listen to my mother and go with them to take a look." ”
"Go, go, go." Old Madam Zheng also said with a smile, and ordered someone to take out a plate of delicate small purses, and said, "Yue'er, take these things to make a lottery." Whoever wins can give a purse. ”
Zheng Yue'er was busy with the maid to pick it up, and pulled Zhou Yanli and Sheng Siyan to go out.
Zhou Yanli glanced back at Jiang Siniang, and Jiang Siniang and her two sisters followed with a smile.
Sheng Siyan stepped out of the door of the meditation room and saw that the barley at the door seemed to have something to say, so he quietly broke away from Zheng Yue'er's arm and said, "I have something to say to barley." ”
Zheng Yue'er was anxious to go to Doucao, but she didn't care, turned around with a smile and pulled Jiang Siniang's arm, and said, "Let's go and occupy a good position first." He turned back and told Sheng Siyan: "Sister Sheng, come quickly!" ”
Sheng Siyan nodded, watched them leave first, and walked behind with the maid and woman, while asking Barley, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Yi Ren hurriedly said in a low voice: "Grandma Young, just now the slave maid heard the third girl tell Miss Jiang and the fourth girl about the eldest son and the fourth son. As he spoke, he relayed what Zhou Yanli said.
Sheng Siyan couldn't help but stop.
When she heard those words, she only thought that when Zhou Huaixuan was seriously ill, no one paid attention to him in the Divine General's Mansion, and her heart couldn't help but feel sour, and she almost burst into tears in her eyes.
She still remembered that when she saw fifteen-year-old Zhou Huaixuan in the ruined temple, he was such a gentle and kind person.
Who would have thought that such a warm person would have been left out in the cold and isolated in his own home for fifteen years?
No wonder he didn't care about his family at all after he recovered from his illness.
And if he is kind to him, his gratitude can be overwhelming, and he will protect her tightly and prevent anyone from hurting her......
Sheng Siyan's heart softened, and he hurriedly lowered his head and pressed the corner of his eyes with a handkerchief, and said in a low voice: "I know." Thank you. "Thank you for letting me know about Huai Xuan's past.
These things, if others hadn't talked about them, Sheng Siyan would have known that Zhou Huaixuan himself wouldn't mention a word.
Yi Renwu was angry and said in a low voice: "Grandma, don't thank the slave." The slave maid was just angry, they used to snub the eldest prince, and now they have no intention of making up for it, and they say that he is not close to them. He is a sick person, shouldn't they come to get close to him?! ”
Sheng Siyan knew that Barley was completely on her side and thought about her, so she had such an idea, so she comforted her with a smile: "It's okay." We don't care what people think, we just need to take care of ourselves. ”
In this matter, there is no right or wrong, but everyone's position is different.
Sheng Siyan's heart calmed down, and he took the maid and the maid to the place where the grass was fighting in the back mountain.
"Sister Sheng! This way! This way! Zheng Yue'er hurriedly beckoned to her.
Sheng Siyan looked at this place and saw that this was a small valley, the place was flat, flowers and plants were flourishing, and there was a one-person high screen in the middle of the valley, which divided the valley into two halves.
"Hey, there's a screen here?" Sheng Siyan looked curiously at the butterfly love flowers embroidered on the screen, but they complemented the flowers here, which was very appropriate.
Jiang Siniang walked up to her and said with a smile: "Young Grandma Sheng, I heard that you are here for the first time?" ”
Sheng Siyan looked at her and said with a smile: "Yes, I don't understand anything, you can advise me a lot." ”
"Where, where." Jiang Siniang covered her sleeves and smiled, "It's also my first time here, and I used to be in Jiangnan. ”
"Oh." Sheng Siyan was clear, "That screen is not bad. ”
"This screen is to avoid suspicion." Jiang Siniang pointed to the screen, "That's where the young masters chant poems against each other." Our women's family is here to talk about grass and flowers, so as not to mix with them. ”
Sheng Siyan nodded, "That's not bad." ”
As the two of them talked, they looked at the screen and heard the man's noisy cheers coming from behind the screen.
"Wang Yixing, if you lose the shot, you will be punished for chanting a poem!"
Wang Yixing's clear and gloomy voice came, and the girls who were laughing and noisy on the side of the screen suddenly quieted down, and they all listened attentively to the poems of Sanyuan and the first champions.
"The hair is messy and the eyebrows are long, out of the orchid room, don't Tan Lang. The horn whimpered, and the stars gradually faded. The remnants of the moon have not risen. Can't keep it, a thousand tears. ”
Zhou Yanli's tears flowed out all of a sudden, and she hurriedly lowered her head to wipe them away.
And on the other side of the screen after a while, a cheer broke out, and someone said: "Brother Wang, your words are good, but they are too undesirable, come, punish you with three cups!" ”
Wang Yixing laughed and said: "It's just lyrics, you guys take it seriously!" - Come, I'll punish myself with three cups! As he spoke, he drank three glasses heroically.
"I'll punish you for making a heroic song again." This is Zhou Huaili's voice.
Wang Yixing smiled and said:
"The young man must be arrogant, leading the yellow on the left and the sky on the right. Brocade hat mink fur, thousand horses roll Pingoka. In order to report the fall of the city, follow the Taishou, shoot the tiger in person, and watch Zhou Lang!
The wine is still open, and the temples are stained with blood, so what's the matter? In the clouds, when will you send your heart? Will hold the bow like a full moon, look northwest, shoot the wolf! ”
