Chapter 14: Acquaintance (2)

The Hanging Flower Gate is really like a boundary, and the scenery inside and outside the door is very different. As far as the eye can see, a piece of holly has been pruned into various shapes, and on the side is a plum tree, and there are begonias, spring greetings, and roses. It's just that these things are not dense, and there is enough space underneath. Through these, there is a vast white world, there is a miao miao water vapor steaming upwards, there is a faint high-rise building standing in the middle of the world, and there are lights on the upper floor, like a fairyland.

Shu Jiaozheng wondered, who would live upstairs like that, so he heard Xiyue laugh and said:

"That's the General's residence."

The cold and sharp person instantly appeared in front of Shu Yao's eyes, and sure enough, such a tall building was the most suitable for him.

Along with that lake, there is also a mountain. Presumably the mountain is originally there, there is a pavilion built on the mountain, the height is staggered, there are winding paths leading up, the vermilion wall, the flying yellow eaves, in the white snow against the background of quiet and beautiful.

Walk along the lake, walk for a while, see a pear tree, through the pear forest, and see a courtyard, white wall, gray tile, there is a boulder next to the door, the boulder is written on the three words "Gantang Courtyard". Xi Yue said that it was here, and walked a few steps forward to open the curtain, and said in a loud voice:

"Miss Li Er has arrived!"

A few maids came out of the house, all dressed in the same way as Xiyue, and Liang's mother came out after her, stepped forward and said with a smile:

"Second Miss, please come in, the old lady has been waiting for you!"

Shu Yao hurriedly followed everyone inside, and saw Mrs. Yu sitting on the warm kang, leaning on a half-new hidden sac behind her, and holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand.

When Mrs. Yu saw Shu Yao, a smile appeared on her face, beckoned her to sit in front of her, asked her what kind of tea she was drinking, and asked someone to serve a snack. Let her eat a piece of snack, pause for a while, and then say:

"The second lady also saw that in the Magnolia Courtyard, as soon as your sister fell, there was no one in charge. Ya Yatou is weak, so she must get through it now. Originally, I was supposed to take care of her, but in addition to me, there was also her serious mother-in-law in this house. Brother Yan is a concubine, and his mother is in charge of a lot of things in the house, so it is inevitable that there will be times when he can't take care of it. I have a reluctant invitation here, the second miss bothered to make a snack, and if the people did not do well, I asked the second miss to help mention something. ”

While speaking, he looked at Shu Yao's expression.

Shu Yao has always felt sorry for her sister, and she has already discovered that Xu's mother is careless, so Chun Tao can still be used, and it is difficult for her sister to bring a group of weak people to support her here alone. At this time, seeing Mrs. Yu say this, I knew that she really cared about her sister, and she had a sense of closeness to Mrs. Yu from the heart. Looking at Mrs. Yu's age, she is more like a mother than a grandmother.

Shu Yao nodded hurriedly and said:

"You're polite, old lady. I don't dare to mention it, Shu Yao often has times when he doesn't think it through. When my sister arrived here, she often wrote to say that the old lady was kind and loving, and the father often said that my sister's blessing was not small. Now, if I can get the guidance of the old lady, it will be my creation. ”

Seeing that Shu Jiao was advancing and retreating, Mrs. Yu loved her even more in her heart, and patted her hand and said:

"What is created or not, you two sisters are flower-like characters, I have seen what you like. Ya girl...... I have a child, and I have a hope for the future. This kid must be saved......"

As he spoke, there was some sadness on his face.

Seeing this, Shu Yao hurriedly said something else. After chatting for a while, seeing that it was already dark, Mrs. Yu said:

"I won't keep you any longer, after all, Ya Ya still needs to be careful." He also greeted Xiyue and sent Shu Yao back.

Shu Yao stood up and said goodbye, and when Xiyue sent them out of Gantang Courtyard, she turned around and said:

"Sister, stay here, I've already written down this road, and I won't go wrong. You're busy, so you don't have to send me. ”

Xiyue said a few polite words, because she thought that dinner was about to be delivered, so she didn't insist, gave the lantern in her hand to Liu's mother, stood at the gate of the courtyard and watched their figures disappear, before turning around and entering the courtyard.
