Chapter 26: Sisterhood

Shui Lingyu stepped forward and knocked on the knocker gently, the work was not big, "squeak" sounded, the courtyard door opened, and saw a middle-aged woman coming out of the door, only to see that she was about forty years old, with her head in a high bun, a light orange silk handkerchief covered with black silk, wearing an emerald green short-sleeved shirt, a narrow golden lotus, stepping on a pair of bamboo sandals, and walking "cluck, cluck" straight sound.

When the woman saw Shui Lingyu's handsome and extraordinary face, she was so excited: "What a handsome father-in-law!" and then smiled and said, "Son, please come in!"

"Thank you!" turned and entered the door. The woman closed the door with her backhand and invited Shui Lingyu into the house. Entering the house, Shui Lingyu untied the burden and put it on the table, and there was a "cluck" sound, and there was movement. The woman's ears were quick, and she had already heard it, and secretly said, "What a crisp sound, it seems that there must be a lot of money in this guy's baggage, so it is better to ......" and shouted to the back room: "Nier, come out of the house quickly!

What is Gashzi's tea? She said this to remind the girl in the house that she was trying to plot against the evil by adding sweat medicine to the tea! It turned out that the owner of this shop used to be a snitch who came and went high in the green forest, and the couple often used sweat medicine to harm people's lives and seek money. Later, the man's family unfortunately died early, and before he died, he suddenly repented in his heart, and repented: "I only blame myself for doing too much evil in my life, and even Grandpa Yama regrets himself, so I want to call myself back early!" The woman nodded again and again, and from now on she lived with her only daughter, Laniel, and sure enough, she would not harm anyone's life again. I don't want to do it today, and suddenly I heard the sound of silver in Shui Lingyu's baggage, and I couldn't help but have evil thoughts in my heart, and I was ready to do this thing again.

Without further ado, let's get down to business. Let's say that Laniel, the daughter of the woman in the house, heard the word "Xianggong", she couldn't help but be shocked, and quietly opened the bamboo curtain to look out, and saw that Shui Lingyu looked really handsome and extraordinary, and her heart moved unconsciously, thinking that she was already old and not young, and she was still helpless for life. Quietly, he walked to the outer room, and said to the woman shyly: "Mother, look at this strange handsome father-in-law, you, you might as well talk to him!"

Seeing the shame on her face, the woman understood a little, smiled, and said, "Oh, Nier, you can't be ......?"

Lanier smiled shyly and said softly, "Mother, don't talk about it here!

"Hey!" the woman turned around and smiled at Shui Lingyu: "Childe, please wait here for a while, mother-in-law, I'll go and prepare food for Childe!"

"Okay, shopkeeper, please take care of yourself!" Shui Lingyu replied. The woman and her daughter Lanier turned and went into the back room.

When she came to the back room, the woman said softly, "Girl, are you going to have a crush on that kid?"

"Mother......" Laniel's face suddenly turned red with shame, like a big red apple, and she only squirmed vigorously, and did not say much at all.

Seeing her answer so shyly, the woman couldn't help but smile and said, "I understand, no wonder people often say that women don't stay in the middle, and if they stay around, they will be worried." Child, it seems that you really have a heart for that boy! But if he already has a wife, won't you be happy?"

The girl said shyly: "Mother, where is it so coincidental? Don't be in a hurry to start first, go and ask about the situation first!"

The woman said, "Well, then it's up to you!" The mother and daughter hurriedly prepared six delicate side dishes, which are:

Vinegared peanuts, crystal elbows, dried tofu, cold cabbage shreds, fried mushrooms with rape, fried eggplant with eggs, a pot of old flower carving, and a plate of large white buns.

Brought to the table, cups, plates, bowls and butterflies, neatly arranged in turn, the woman smiled at Shui Lingyu and said, "Childe, please eat some of it! The little woman is less accompanied!" turned around and walked into the back room.

"Thank you, owner!" Shui Lingyu's eating plot, needless to mention!

Let's say that after the woman entered the house, she saw Lanier sitting upright in front of the dressing mirror to dress up, only to see her apply a little powder, skillfully paint her red lips, take off the goose yellow silk handkerchief covered with black silk, the high phoenix hairpin bun, interspersed with an emerald jade hairpin, put on a pair of delicate earrings, take off the light cyan single shirt, the pink belly pocket was revealed, took a rose purple short-sleeved light shirt and put it on her body, bent down and took off the bamboo sandals, revealing the narrow golden lotus, put on a pair of orange-red embroidered shoes, all the makeup stopped, got up and came to the mother, gently twisted the soft posture, smiled shyly, and said: "Mother, is it good-looking?"

The woman nodded again and again and smiled, "Beautiful! Like a bride who is about to get married." ”

Hearing this, Laniel's cheeks suddenly flushed, and she was ashamed: "Mother......"

"Alright, alright!" the woman patted her jade hand and said with a smile: "Nier, don't be shy anymore! If you can really find a good home, then you can rest assured as a mother! Let's go and find out what the kid is!"

The mother and daughter walked out of the house, and saw that Shui Lingyu had eaten and drunk enough, and was sitting there wiping her mouth with a silk scarf.

When he came to him, he first removed the broken table, sat down, and asked Shui Lingyu: "Dare to ask Gongzi's surname and name, where is Xianxiang?"

"Oh, little girl......" Shui Lingyu almost said to show her mouth, and quickly changed her words: "Xiaosheng's surname is Sui, and his single name is a jade character, which is originally from Luzhou Mansion!"

"Oh! It turned out to be Sui Gongzi!" Then he asked again: "Then dare to ask Sui Gongzi, I don't know how young the young man is?

"Huh?" Shui Lingyu was stunned, she wanted to laugh in her heart, and secretly laughed to herself: "I am a girl's family, where did I get a wife!" smiled and said: "Don't hide it from the shopkeeper, Xiaosheng has spent twenty-one years in vain, and he is still single!"

When Lanier heard this, her heart suddenly rejoiced, and she gently clubbed her mother with her elbow, and the woman looked up at her, and Lanielle gave her a look, and the woman understood, so she asked again: "Then dare to ask Gongzi, have your family set up a family affair for you?"

Shui Lingyu secretly wondered: "Strange, why do you seem to want to marry me?" and said, "If the shopkeeper has something to say, please say it directly!"

The woman smiled and said, "In that case, then I will go straight to the point! I don't hide it, I have a daughter, surnamed Liu, and her name is Lanny, oh! Standing next to me! Although my daughter's appearance is not as beautiful as the country, the country and the city, but it is not ugly, and she can barely get into the eyes of the public, and now she is twenty-two, one year older than Sui Gongzi, and her lifelong affairs are still unsettled, she sees Sui Gongzi you are handsome and extraordinary, and she admires you so much, and she is willing to let you be his wife, I don't know what Gongzi wants?"

Shui Lingyu glanced at the other side, there was indeed a girl standing, seeing that she was born with a beautiful appearance and a beautiful appearance, she was shy and lovely, and thought to herself: "Sister, don't tease me, okay? I am just like you, and I am also a daughter, how dare I accept you?" Then she smiled and said: "Thanks to Miss Xiaosheng, how can Xiaosheng's appearance be really indecent, how can she be worthy of Miss?"

The woman smiled and said: "Sui Gongzi said that he laughed, according to your appearance, you are definitely one in a hundred, let alone the second, why should Gongzi be too humble?"

Shui Lingyu smiled to herself: "Oh! Listening to her words, do you have to marry your daughter to me? How is this good?" smiled and said, "It's not good! Xiaosheng, Xiaosheng is really not worthy of Miss Liu!"

Laniel couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in her heart, and said, "What? Don't you look at me in your eyes, in that case, why don't you just say it! Why do you keep beating around the bush and procrastinating!"

Seeing that Lanier was angry, Shui Lingyu waved her hand again and again and said, "......No, Miss Liu misunderstood, Miss Liu, you look like Xi Shi, how could Xiaosheng not look down on it, it's just ......"

"Just what? you say!" Lanielle exclaimed angrily.

Shui Lingyu really had no choice, stomped her feet, gritted her teeth, and simply picked it out: "Don't hide it from Sister Liu, in fact, in fact, my name is Sui Yu at all, the little girl's surname is Shui, and her name is Lingyu." ”

"What?" Lanielle couldn't help but be stunned, "It turns out that you are also a daughter?"

"That's good!" Shui Lingyu nodded again and again, and said, "It's because I'm also a daughter that I can't promise you." Please sister, don't blame it!"

"Oh, what's this called?" Laniel laughed and cried, ashamed and annoyed, stamped her foot, and turned straight back to the back room. The woman shook her head helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "Miss Shui, you have wronged our mother!" and turned back to the house. Shui Lingyu sat here alone, ashamed and ashamed, and in the end, she simply lay on the table and refused to raise her head again.

But it was said that Lanier entered the back room, sat on the kang with her buttocks, frowned, pouted, and sulked. The woman crept forward, smiled at her, and said, "What's the matter?

"Can you not be angry?" Lanielle pouted and muttered, "What do you call this? What a handsome boy, actually, it was a woman pretending, which made me happy, I was really angry!"

The woman clapped her hands and feigned anger, "Well, since this stinky girl has wronged my daughter so much, then I must not spare her." Girl, you wait, for the sake of my mother, this will go to the girl's life!" turned around and wanted to go out of the house.

Lanier couldn't help but be startled, and hurriedly jumped off the kang, stepped forward and grabbed the woman's arm, and said with a smile: "Okay, mother, no matter how you say it, the water girl is not wrong at all, but we didn't understand the matter at all, so we messed up the mandarin duck score, so we made a joke." Mother, don't go to other people's water girls for trouble, okay?"

"Good ......!" the woman smiled helplessly: "My daughter has a wide heart, and she is kind-hearted, and she is not as good as you for her mother!"

"Mother...... Laniel bowed her head in shame.

The woman smiled and said, "Girl, for the sake of my mother, I see that there is a lot of silver in that girl's baggage, do you think we should be her?"

Lanier shook her head and said, "Mother, have you forgotten that your father and his old man said something to you before he died? Nizi, I lost my father when I was six years old, I don't want to lose my mother so early!"

The woman pondered for a moment, nodded again and again, and said, "That's good! Listen to you for your mother, and from now on, I will never have such evil intentions for my mother." ”

"Well, that's good!" Lanier smiled and said, "Don't hide it from my mother, in fact, my daughter, I have already thrown away all the sweat pills left by my father, and my mother just wants to use it, but I don't have it at all!"

"You kid, you still play tricks with your own mother!" The woman smiled helplessly, and then asked, "Girl, what do you think of that water girl?"

"Well, that's good, what's wrong?" asked Lannelle.

The woman smiled and said, "Then what do you think if the mother introduces her to your eldest cousin?"

Lanier waved her hand again and again: "Come on, just my eldest cousin looks so cold, how can you look down on him!

The woman couldn't help but glance at her and said with a smile: "You child, do you say that about your eldest cousin?"

Lanielle smiled and said, "Okay, mother, let's not talk about my eldest cousin." Oh, that's right, mother! Daughter, I think, and this water girl has a lot of eyes, although they can't get married, but what, I want to marry her as a godsister, I don't know what my mother thinks?"

The woman nodded again and again and said, "Okay! I can accept such a handsome goddaughter, but it is also a beautiful thing! Let's go, girl, let's see her opinion!" The mother and daughter walked out of the house hand in hand, and saw Shui Lingyu lying alone on the table, looking at the flickering oil lamp in a daze, Laniel quietly walked over, smiled, and said, "What's the matter?" Sister Shui, alone, what are you doing here?"

Shui Lingyu slowly stood up and whispered ashamedly: "I'm sorry, Sister Liu, I, I didn't mean to make you angry just now, it's just ......"

Lanier patted her jade hand and said with a smile: "Okay, sister, don't say these useless anymore, it's all sister's, it's not about you, sister." Sister Shui, if you don't mind, we might as well be godsisters, how about it?"

"Okay!" Shui Lingyu replied cheerfully: "Sister, I can't ask for it! Sister is above, please accept my sister's worship!"

Lanielle knelt on the ground and returned the salute, and the two bowed to each other, officially becoming godsisters, holding hands and laughing, with infinite joy. Shui Lingyu smiled shyly at the woman and called softly, "Godmother!"

"Whew!" the woman responded happily, led Shui Lingyu into the inner room, and chatted happily, *** happy, needless to mention!

The next day, Shui Lingyu was still dressed as a son. After finishing the meal, they left Liujiadian and continued to hurry in the direction of Tianshan, the mother and daughter went out to see each other, and the sisters held their hands and said goodbye, quietly crying. Lady Liu stepped forward and advised: "Goddaughter, be more careful along the way! Remember, when you go out, you must not reveal your wealth, and you must not show your appearance, except for regular inns, other rural wild shops, you must not enter without permission, so as not to be harmed, you know?"

Shui Lingyu nodded again and again: "Oh! thank you godmother for mentioning it, I wrote it down for my daughter!" said goodbye and turned to leave.

Looking at Shui Lingyu gradually moving away, Lanier felt an indescribable sourness in her heart, and when she could no longer see Shui Lingyu's figure, Laniel was reluctant to turn around and return to the store.

Along the way, Shui Lingyu was hungry for food and thirst, and stayed overnight in Xiaoxing, no need to say how hard it was! After more than a month of driving, she finally came to the Tianshan Mountains. Maybe God took pity on her, or was moved by her infatuation, when she rushed to Tianshan, it happened that Chu Ping also returned to Tianshan.

I just don't know where Chu Ping went after leaving the cave, and why did the two of them rush to the Tianshan Mountains at the same time? For more information, please see the answer below.
