Chapter 24 Farewell to the Old and Welcome to the New
The old lady smiled: "You monkey, fooling your second sister, right?" ”
Yun Suidan smiled silently, and Tao Ye thought silently on the side, is it just a fool? It's just intimidating.
It's almost the end of the year, and the whole house is busy posting Spring Festival couplets, hanging red lanterns, changing peach charms, and the little girls come and go, and they are very busy.
Yun Sui is also busy, at the end of the year, she wants to feast and eat, and she has to distribute New Year's rewards to the little girls and little girls, and often does not sleep until the third watch.
Fortunately, although Liu's personality is a little weak, he is well organized in arranging these matters.
The whole Hou Mansion has a new look, and the corridors are full of long and bright rows of red lanterns, which makes people feel festive when they look at it.
Although the weather is cold, there are still many people who come to visit relatives and friends.
The old lady said: "Sui'er, the Dingbei Hou family is also here today, you go out with me to socialize, and I will also take you to recognize people." lest you marry and have a black eye and no one knows. ”
Yun Sui felt a hint of ambiguity in the old lady's smile, but she didn't dare to disobey her grandmother's order, so she changed into a Baidie wearing a flower jacket with gold thread makeup and a moonlit moonlight skirt, combed the lily bun, inserted a golden hairpin inlaid with jade and tired silk, and followed.
When she arrived at the main hall of the reception, the old lady pulled her to sit down beside her, grabbed her hand with one hand, and said to a woman wearing an autumn-scented embroidered goose-like silk gown, combing her heart bun, and using only a few transparent and turquoise jade hostas with her hair: "Mrs. Hou, this is my granddaughter, Yunsui. ”
Yun Sui hurriedly got up and saluted: "I've seen Mrs. Hou." ”
Qiu's slender smiling eyes, not smiling, but also with a three-point smile, looked at Yun Sui a few times, and said: "It's a little beauty embryo, looking quiet and well-behaved, it is obvious that the old lady you have a good upbringing." ”
The old lady smiled: "Mrs. Hou is polite. ”
After a few words of gossip, he asked, "Why don't you see your sister Yun?" ”
"She had to rob the girls of hanging lanterns two days ago, and she was accidentally injured. I was so angry that I couldn't let her get up and beat her again! If she is as obedient as Sister Sui, I will be satisfied. ”
"It's good to be lively and active! I just hope that Sister Sui'er won't be bored all day and go out more. I like Sister Yun'er's cool temperament, but it's a pity that I won't be able to see her until next year. ”
Mrs. Hou pursed her lips and smiled: "It's not easy for you to see her, you send someone to say, we will be here the next day." ”
The old lady said: "Okay, I remember your words, don't think my wife is annoying when the time comes!" ”
"Look at what you said, it's too late for us to respect you and love you!"
The elders spoke, and Yun Sui only sat quietly on the side, adding tea to the old lady and Mrs. Hou from time to time.
Mrs. Hou saw that Yun Sui had a gentle temperament, and she only focused on doing her own thing quietly, and she didn't sit stunned like an irrelevant person, but laughed a few times from time to time, and she was decent and close.
Then he asked: "Sister Sui, you look almost fifteen this year, right?" ”
Yun Sui: "Mrs. Huihou, it will be in time next year." ”
Qiu said: "Okay, I didn't know you were coming today, I didn't prepare anything, and I will definitely give you a big gift when I get to you." ”
The old lady took over the conversation, "No need for a big gift, there are any good sons in the capital, you can help pay more attention!" This kid has a boring temperament, and he doesn't know what kind of family he will find in the future. ”
Qiu listened to the old lady's meaning, probably wanting to marry their family.
But she heard that there are three young ladies in this Hou Mansion, the second miss is a good speaker, and the sixth miss is too young.
Several concubines in the family have not married yet, but their talents and appearance are thousands of miles behind Yun Sui, but I am afraid that the old lady will not will.
Could it be that the old lady wants her eldest son, Su Yun?
Qiu's smile faded by two points, "This is natural, I will definitely help pay attention to it if there is a good one." Sister Sui'er has such a character, what kind of person you want to find can't find it. And I think Sister Sui is not boring, but steady. ”
The old lady couldn't stop laughing.
Yun Sui also heard that there was a fight between the two, and the old lady should want to marry the Hou Mansion in Dingbei, but looking at the reaction of this Mrs. Hou, she didn't seem to be very willing.
The old lady returned to the room and patted Yun Sui's hand comfortingly, "Sui'er, don't worry, grandmother will find a good family for you." ”
Yun Sui said: "Grandmother, when it comes to marriage, the granddaughter is all up to her grandmother. But the granddaughter is not yet in time, and the grandmother is slowly looking for it. If you can't find it, it doesn't matter, this fate is determined, and you can't force it. ”
The old lady screwed her, "How can grandmother not be in a hurry?" Your second sister is going to get married in the spring, how many years can you stay at home? Recently, the second room has begun to show Yun Xianxiang, can you still marry after your sixth sister? ”
Yun Sui didn't speak again, but the young man in white in Meilin gradually appeared in his mind, and said to her with a smile that she didn't have to mind.
In the sound of firecrackers, the spring breeze sends warmth into Tusu.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, the old lady was not in good health, so she slept first.
Yun Sui took the peach leaves and jade marks to the Wuyuan Courtyard.
Since she moved away, the courtyard has been much more deserted than before, and today's festival, except for the maids on duty at night, the rest are either eating and drinking, or going home, and it seems that the courtyard is silent and desolate.
Yun Sui ran in a few steps, and when she saw Aunt Zhou lying on the bed, she held her pale and slender hand tightly, "Auntie." I'm here to keep you there. ”
Aunt Zhou looked at her with a smile, "Today's Chinese New Year's Eve, you don't accompany the old lady, what are you doing here?" ”
"The old lady has slept. I'm here to accompany you. ”
Tao Ye was holding a bunch of things in her hand, "Aunt Zhou, these are the medicinal supplements that Miss bought for you, as well as some pastries, and the slave maid put them here for you." ”
Aunt Zhou nodded at her, and asked Yun Sui again: "Is the old lady okay with you?" ”
Yun Sui smiled: "Grandmother is very good to me, auntie, you can rest assured." ”
Aunt Zhou seemed to think of something and hesitated, but turned to smile and said, "Okay, good for you, I'll rest assured." ”
The mother and daughter kept the New Year together, and Taoye had no scruples in front of them, talking and laughing while eating pastries, and Yuzhen followed Yun Sui to play with Aunt Zhou.
Time passed quickly, and when it was dawn, Yun Sui hugged Aunt Zhou and refused to leave, "Auntie, let me accompany you for a while." I'm tired and want to sleep here. ”
Aunt Zhou said angrily: "You kid, what are you doing here?" I'm still sick, how can I get better for you after I get sick? ”
Tao Ye said: "Auntie, you can let the young lady sleep here." Don't you understand Miss's heart? She is every day, that, in Cao Ying's heart in Han! ”
