Chapter 250: Cousin-in-law
The Shen family's mansion is not big when it is seriously calculated, and it can't be compared with the mansion of the nouveau riche in the court, and it can't be compared with the maiden family of Zhou Guifei.
Not to mention things like King Qin's Mansion, or Lu Yangge's Yi Garden.
Fortunately, the location is good, and the yard is small but elegant. There are two hundred-year-old plane trees in the courtyard, which are lush and tall, and you can see clearly from a distance.
The Shen family followed Shen Hou into Beijing, and the house was also formed by merging the two mansions bought for the Shen family after the Shen family was sealed. Because it is two houses, the Shen Mansion is divided into two courtyards, Shen Zhenghai's family of four lives in the east courtyard, and Shen Zhenghe's family of three and his mother and sister live in the west courtyard.
When Lu Yangge entered the door, the first to greet him were Shi and Shen Zhengqing, the wives of Shen Zhenghai, the head of the Shen family.
Shi is a native of Nanyang County, his father is a talented man, and his family has dozens of acres of thin fields. She has known Shen Zhenghai since she was a child, married Shen Zhenghai after marriage, and gave birth to her eldest son Shen Yaoguang the following year. When the Shen family had an accident, she had just given birth to her second child, Shen Yaoming, with Shen Zhenghai.
"Sister-in-law, cousin."
Lu Yangge got out of the carriage and bowed.
Shi stepped forward and grabbed Lu Yangge: "Don't dare to be, cousin, please get up." ”
According to the generation, Shi is a cousin-in-law, Shen Zhengqing is a cousin, and Lu Yange should be courteous.
It's just that Shi's husbands are just five-grade petty officials, and they don't even have orders. Shen Zhengqing is just a girl who has not yet come out of the cabinet, and Lu Yangge is the lord of Huaiping, and he is a lot higher than two people in terms of identity.
This is the gate, and although there are no people outside, there are always neighbors who can see it.
Lu Yangge made such a salute, Shi's heart was moved, and he still had to be scruples about his face.
Shen Zhengqing also held the other side of Lu Yangge, with tears in his eyes: "Little sister, are you really Sister Yangge?" ”
Lu Yangge also felt excited: "Yes, I'm Lu Yangge, sister, don't you remember me?" ”
"It's not much like when I was a kid." Shen Zhengqing pouted.
When I was a child, I was a little cutie, and now that I'm older, I feel less close to what I felt when I was a child.
"It's really not like it, the longer it gets, the more beautiful it gets." Shi Shi held Lu Yangge's arm with one hand and walked in, "Come into the house, the second aunt knows that you are coming, and she has been waiting for it early in the morning." ”
Shi Shi held Lu Yangge's right hand, and Shen Zhengqing held Lu Yangge's left hand. The three of them talked and entered the west courtyard of the second room of the Shen family together.
"Your third sister-in-law is heavy, so the second aunt didn't let her come out to greet her." This is Shi explaining for Concubine Dong, afraid that Lu Yangge will not be happy if he doesn't see his third sister-in-law come out to greet him.
"I know, my aunt told me about this, saying that the third sister-in-law is pregnant, and it has been almost five months." Lu Yangge said softly, "Cousin, don't blame me for not coming to see you, I asked someone to inquire about your news before I entered Beijing last year. Later, when I came to Beijing, I wanted to come to meet my second aunt, but I was hesitant and didn't know what to do, so I never came. ”
"It's also difficult for you, so small, floating outside, I don't know how much suffering I have suffered. Okay now, you will have a family with us in the future, and the second aunt also said that you will clean up the yard and let you move in. ”
Shi Shi talked as he walked: "The second aunt lives in the West Courtyard, and we usually eat here in the West Courtyard. If you come, you will live in the East Courtyard, and with us, we have few families, and you will be more lively when you come. ”
Shi and Lu Yangge have met, when she and Shen Zhenghe got married, Lu Yangge was just six years old, and she was cute and very lively.
Shen Zhenghe also joked with her behind her back, saying that in the future, when they give birth to a daughter, they will give birth to a beautiful cousin.
"Okay, then please leave me a room for my sister-in-law, I miss you, so I'll stay for a few days."
Although Lu Yangge agreed, he didn't say that he wanted to stay. Shi's mind has arrived, and it is not easy to persuade more.
"Sister-in-law, what about Kangkang and Jianjian?"
Kang Kang is the eldest son of the Shi family, Shen Yaoguang, and Jian Jian is the second son of the Shi family, Shen Yaoming. The milk names of these two children were still given by Lu Yangge, when the Shi family had just given birth to their eldest son.
Lu Yangge followed to see the eldest nephew, surrounded the cradle with great interest, and said that she, as an aunt, wanted to give the eldest nephew a big gift.
Her big gift was to stuff the delicious and fun she brought to Shen Yaoguang, who was still in infancy.
Xiao Shen stopped her and told her that her eldest nephew was still young, and he couldn't eat or play, and he could only play with his little aunt when he was healthy and grew up.
Lu Yangge went to find her grandfather and said that she gave her eldest nephew a milk named Kangkang, and her sister-in-law would call her second nephew Jianjian in the future.
The ancestor of the Shen family felt that his granddaughter's words meant well, and the Shen family would definitely be prosperous in the future.
The milk name of the grandson of the Shen family was called Kangkang, and in the third year, Shi gave birth to a second son and called Jianjian.
Shi Shi mentioned his two sons, and his eyebrows softened: "Kang Kang and Jian Jian went to school, and my mother said that I would pick them up at noon and meet their little aunt." ”
"It's all going to school! I haven't seen each other in years, so it's time to be a big kid. Lu Yangge exclaimed.
Shi Shi nodded: "It's really old, Kangkang is almost as tall as me, Jianjian is also seven years old, and he just entered a private school this year." ”
Although Lu Yangge and Shen Zhengqing didn't speak, the two young ladies held their hands tightly.
The warm palms of the hands were clasped together, and the eye contact between the two young ladies seemed to be very close, and they felt comfortable without speaking.
When I entered the hall of the West Courtyard and saw my second aunt, third cousin and third cousin, Shen's second aunt couldn't help but hug Lu Yangge and cry for a while.
Shen's second aunt thought of her sister-in-law's goodness, thought of the hardships that Lu Yangge had endured when she was out, and then remembered that something happened to the Shen family, and her own daughters and nephews who were in a woman's family leading two rooms were frightened.
I cried more and more and couldn't control myself.
It was easy to stop crying, and Shen's second aunt had time to look at her niece Lu Yangge.
The little girl's clothes are not gorgeous, wearing a pink and purple pleated skirt, the skirt is embroidered with a little plum blossom, walking around to see the butterfly dark lines outlined by gold and silver threads, a purple inlaid with jade brocade waist tied to the thin waist, but also showing the slender waist is not full of hand. The jet-black hair is curled into a hanging bun, and several thumb-sized ruby petals are like plum blossoms, looming in the hair. More and more lined like a hibiscus, extremely gorgeous.
Although he didn't wear the county lord's makeup, he could see that from the clothes to the clothes, there was no disobedience. It's like the daughter of the family, who got up in the morning and dressed up in new clothes and makeup, to greet the elders, which adds a sense of intimacy.
"It looks too much like your mother." The second aunt wiped away her tears, and pulled Lu Yangge to take a closer look, "You look better than when your mother was a girl, your eyebrows and eyes are like your mother, but your forehead and jaw are like your father." If your father and mother are still there, I don't know how happy you should be to see us grow so well. ”
As he spoke, tears couldn't help but fall like rain, causing Lu Yangge to cry bitterly in his aunt's arms.
