Chapter 16
Chapter 16
After the new year, after Zhao Shuyu was happy, she thought with a little sadness that she is now 24 years old. Thinking of her fresh and tender little girl, she really feels a little bit of resentment for no reason. I'm younger than anything, I'm really getting back as I live.
Anyway, it's a new year and a new beginning. When she was happy, she rewarded each girl with five taels of silver. They were so happy that they accepted it one by one, and discussed it together and wanted to buy it. something.
Zhao Shuyu was also happy to see them happy and make others happy. She felt that her mood was better, but when she got to Jinjin's place, she didn't know what to give.Jinjin doesn't need money, and it's too vulgar to give money. The maids can give it as a reward.Pick a more expensive root?Maybe another emerald bracelet?If she really gave it away, she probably wanted to beat herself up.
She was so stupid that she couldn't think of anything clever.
She had no choice but to go to Yangui for help, after all, this person had been picking gifts for her for many years, "Yangui, tell me, what gift should I give Jinjin?"
Yan Gui was still busy arranging Zhao Shuyu's things at that time, without thinking, he replied casually: "You gave it to me, she is very happy."
As a result, Zhao Shuyu immediately blushed, "Hey! What are you talking about?"
Is that so?She gave it, Jinjin is happy?Zhao Shuyu thought about it, and somehow felt a little sweet in her heart~ Her intimate little padded jacket, she knew that little girls are the most lovable.
In the end, she chose to neutralize it and gave her a hairpin inlaid with jadeite. Every time she thought about a gift, her mind would go blank. Is it easy for her?
This little thing is her ancestral treasure that she dug out from the dowry box. Anyway, her family has been rich for several generations, and there are many so-called ancestral things. It doesn't hurt at all, as long as the girl doesn't marry, whatever she gives her will still belong to her family in the end.
Jinjin was really happy no matter what she gave, and after receiving the hairpin, she put it away like a baby, smiling so much that she showed her big white teeth.
And she even told Zhao Shuyu for the first time that she also had something to give her. The smile on Zhao Shuyu's face could not be hidden when she heard this. Good boy, I guess her aunt can wake up with a smile in her dreams.
She saw that Jinjin lifted the curtain mysteriously and took out a piece of paper from under the pillow. Holding the paper, she ran back to Zhao Shuyu and handed it to Zhao Shuyu as if asking for credit.
Zhao Shuyu took it with a face full of ghosts, a piece of paper?What kind of gift is this?She took a closer look, eh?This is a painting?What is this painting?
Those lines, Zhao Shuyu looked hard for a long time before he could roughly see that the drawing looked like a person, well, it looked like a woman.
so ugly...
What did Jin Jin do for giving her such an ugly painting?Don't tell her it's her.
Then she was sure it was, because there were three small characters crookedly written on the side, Zhao Shuyu, wrote her name ugly as always, and the famous copybook she gave... This person didn't practice?
This little girl, who can't even write well here, actually wants to draw.
She was so ugly that she wanted to cry. Although she didn't think she was so beautiful, she was not so ugly.However, she was really happy that she was able to receive a gift from Jinjin.
Holding the ugly painting, she smiled and scratched Jinjin's small and straight nose, "The painting is beautiful, I am very happy."
When she goes back, she will frame it...frame it...put it away.
There is an ugly painting between the two of them, looking at each other and smiling. It should have been such a warm scene (←_←), but someone came to destroy it.
"Ma'am, ma'am!" Tao Hong hurried in, panting for breath and yelling at them.
Zhao Shuyu frowned, turned his head and gave her a dissatisfied look, "What's wrong? I was surprised."
"The girl who faked fainting by the back door last time pretended to be fainting by the back door again!" Tao Hong replied while panting.
What?Why is the back door pretending to be dizzy?She was confused. Last time, that dark, thin, innocent and unpretentious girl?The daughter of the wife of the Li family?
"Where's that person?" Zhao Shuyu asked, but Taohong probably picked him up again.
"It's such a cold day, it won't be good if it freezes, so I picked it up again." Tao Hong lowered her head and replied in a low voice.
Sure enough, Zhao Shuyu's eyes darkened. Maybe it's time to contact the matchmaker. Sooner or later, this Taohong will piss her off to death. If she picks up a few more times, it's probably up to her.
When it's Chinese New Year's Eve, she won't look for Qishou in person, she waved to Taohong, "Go and let her go back wherever she came from, she is not welcome in my family, and it won't be interesting to play the same tricks as before."
After finishing speaking, an overly thin face inexplicably appeared in front of her eyes, and her tone became softer, "Let her eat before leaving."
Alas, a good year has been ruined, what are these things.
Seeing that she was upset, Jinjin stepped forward to hold her hand, raised her head and looked at her ignorantly.
As soon as Zhao Shuyu saw the lovely Jinjin, her mood immediately improved a lot. After pinching Jinjin's cheek, she pulled Jinjin to the study together.
Zhao Shuyu took out a stack of paper and smiled at Jinjin, "Jinjin, let me teach you origami."
She also suddenly realized that she knew how to do this, and they learned from Hua Luoyan, and she even made flower balls for her mother before and let her put them in the room.
After she sat down, she picked up a piece of paper, cut it into small pieces, flipped it over with her hands, and folded a small flower in a short time. After all these years, she is still ingenious. She smiled sweetly and stretched out her hand Handed the flower to Jinjin.
Jinjin took it with both hands like a baby. Looking at the flower that Zhao Shuyu folded by herself, Jinjin smiled happily, but she was much happier than when she received the so-called ancestral treasure before.Looking at her appearance, I don't know if it's a paper flower. I'm afraid she picked a Tianshan snow lotus. Well, it's the thousand-year-old kind.
Seeing Jinjin laughing so happily, Zhao Shuyu was also happy, but as soon as she was happy, she completely forgot about herself. She completely forgot that she said she was going to teach Jinjin in the first place. After folding it over and over again, Jinjin could barely hold it in her hands.
Seeing this, Zhao Shuyu folded a big paper basket for her.
The paper basket full of Zhao Shuyu's origami was later placed in the most conspicuous place in the room by Jinjin, and she would take it out to have a look at it from time to time.
When Zhao Shuyu's neck was sore and she felt that she was almost folded and it was time to rest, she suddenly remembered that she didn't seem to teach Jinjin yet, and she really forgot.
She felt a little sorry, how could Jinjin just keep watching her here.
But looking at the fruits of her labors, she really has a sense of accomplishment. I didn't expect that she is also versatile.
Just as she was about to say something, the door opened again.
"Madam! Madam!"
It was Tao Hong again, Zhao Shuyu let out a long breath, and asked impatiently, "What's the matter?"
"When the black girl said New Year, she was kicked out by her mother because she was hungry and robbed her brother of food. She didn't know where to go, so she ran over, but she was too embarrassed to knock on the door, so she fainted from hunger Yes, she wants to ask Madam to take her in."
Changed tactics, right? But Zhao Shuyu was really embarrassed to let Taohong drive the little girl away on the first day of the new year after hearing Taohong say so.Even if the black and skinny girl's mother is bad in every way, she can't offend the little girl. She is about the same age as Jinjin, so let her stay with Jinjin as a playmate and take care of food, but If she is not required to work, she will not be paid, and her mother will let her go home when she asks.
It's New Year's Eve, so the Li family is really annoying, everyone with the surname Li is here to beat her up?Forget it, it's not very good to say that, she just ran into two families of the Li family, there are a lot of people with the surname Li in the world, so it can only be considered her unlucky if the two families she met were bad.
And the little girl was overjoyed when she heard Guan Fan.If Taohong didn't stop her, she would have kowtowed to Zhao Shuyu.
They also knew the little girl's name at this time, she was called Li Da Niu, she was just as casual as the big girl, and Zhao Shuyu didn't bother to change it for her, after all, she didn't buy it, so she called it that way, there were two in the family It's also quite interesting to add a big girl to a former big girl.
The next day was the second day of the first lunar month, so Zhao Shuyu took Jinjin back to her natal home.
For the juniors in Zhao’s house, Zhao Rui seemed to be a lonely person without saying a word. Zhao Can kept looking at Jinjin strangely. The four-year-old Zhao Yan was very curious about Jinjin, and kept her eyes wide open. He looked at her with his eyes, but he didn't dare to touch this strange big sister easily.
Jinjin stayed obediently by Zhao Shuyu's side all the time.
And Zhao Shuyu has always behaved well, for fear that they will make an issue out of the fact that she scared her sister-in-law unconscious last time.
It was her fault that she couldn't control her mouth. Knowing that Yu Shi had been frightened and had a dystocia before, she still said that she really didn't make sense at all.
Fortunately, there is nothing wrong with Yushi. After all, it's okay to be startled. She is not pregnant again, otherwise Zhao Xuyao and Zhao Chen will have to slap her no matter how much they love and pet her. Of course, it is impossible for Zhao Xuyao to slap her, but Zhao Chen was not sure.
She tentatively asked: "Father, second brother, can I go and see my sister-in-law?"
Yu's body is not good, so he didn't go back to his mother's house, but still rested in his room.
When Zhao Chen heard the words, he thought of the fact that this stinky girl had scared his wife into a coma. After all, there was nothing his wife could hide from him, so she told the whole story easily.He couldn't answer either, so he turned his head and gave Zhao Shuyu a look, which made Zhao Shuyu shut up immediately.
She really just wanted to go and care about her sister-in-law, and she had nothing to do to scare her second sister-in-law, her second brother just needs to be dealt with.
However, her attention soon shifted to the two little dolls, she hugged Zhao Cong and Zhao Jing, the two little guys are so cute.
That is, she still couldn't hold back and silently complained about Zhao Jing's name in her heart, Zhao Jing, looking in the mirror?But this Jing'er is indeed a little beauty, she looks a lot like her second brother, her second brother looks like a mother, and she also looks like a mother, well, let's say it cheekily, that is, she looks quite like her .
After she finished hugging, she let Jinjin also hug her. The nannies and maids also looked at Zhao Shuyu with some dissatisfaction, but they didn't dare to say anything. After all, this aunt is the most favored. In such a situation , they had no choice but to guard by Jinjin's side, for fear that she would drop the child, and Zhao Chen was taken aback for a moment, but he felt that his sister should have a sense of proportion, even though this nasty Zhao Shuyu had scared him unconscious before. Xiang!Almost scared him to death.
It was also the first time for Jinjin to hold this little child, and she smiled very happily, because she was afraid of falling on Zhao Jing, she was very careful and hugged her tightly, Zhao Jing was also very good, she was not noisy, and she returned Jin Jin Jin smiled.
Zhao Shuyu just stood aside with a smile and saw all this clearly. She walked up to Zhao Chen, nudged him with her elbow, and said to him with a smile: "Second brother, look, the two sisters are very cute. It's fate."
Zhao Chen got angry as soon as he saw her, and he didn't want to forgive her yet, so he didn't answer, but just gave her an angry look.
Zhao Shuyu, who didn't get a response, was also embarrassed. After a pause, she said, "I see Jing'er, she must be a great beauty when she grows up. I'm afraid that anyone who comes to propose marriage in the future will have to step through the threshold. Second brother, don't you think so?" Do you think Jinger looks a bit like me?"
She couldn't believe that this man still didn't speak.
Zhao Chen couldn't help but answer these words: "Why are you so thick-skinned, like you are a beauty? When you were almost ready to marry, you didn't have to be stepped on by the matchmaker, yes, every day In the nest room, even if the sky is falling, I don’t want to come out, and my parents are always used to you. Who would know that I have a younger sister who is waiting to be married? Besides, there is no reason why a niece is like an aunt, she is almost like me. "
Zhao Shuyu hurriedly smiled and said: "We both look like mother, what is the difference between Jing'er like you and like me?"
Zhao Chen pouted, turned his head away, and ignored her again.Although, he did think that his younger sister was pretty good-looking, except for Yixiang who made him fall in love at first sight back then, he had never seen a girl who was more beautiful than his younger sister.Wasn't it because he felt that none of his classmates and friends were worthy of his beautiful sister, but in the end, his sister was married to someone who he thought was even more unworthy at the time.
Thinking of this, he turned his head and glanced at his silly sister with disgust, hmph, he was stupid back then, who could this girl be worthy of, she has a good-looking face, but it is actually an embroidered pillow, golden and jade-like The outside is ruined.
And Zhao Shuyu didn't bother to pay attention to him, she just looked at Jinjin innocently and smiled softly, Jinjin seemed to like little Zhao Jing very much, she hugged her for a long time before finally returning it to the nanny, nanny Thank God, this ancestor finally let go, she hurriedly wiped off her sweat and took over the child, feeling relieved.
The two children are really cute, Zhao Shuyu always feels that if she hugs her for a while longer, she can't help but want to steal one and take one home. At that time, her brother will have to kill her. In order to control herself, after lunch, she will He quickly took Jinjin and planned to go home.
They were also unlucky. On the way home in a carriage, they accidentally ran into a group of drivers. This was on the way, and Zhao Shuyu didn't know what to do.
The two sides dawdled for a while, but the people in the opposite car asked the horse team to make room and let them go first.
The man's voice was pleasant to hear, Zhao Shuyu, as a show of politeness, lifted the corner of the curtain and lowered his eyelids, thanked the man, and then hurriedly asked the groom to drive the carriage and leave.
Zhao Shuyu rejoiced as she walked. Fortunately, her carriage was small. If it was a big one, it would be troublesome if they couldn't get out of the way. They had to retreat.
But is this kind of big shot taking his wife back to his natal home?The battle is so successful, it is just like a roadblock, and they are really unlucky.
After they finally got home, Zhao Shuyu hurriedly asked the girls to prepare hot water for them to wash and wash.
Taohong Liulu thought that Jinjin's condition was much better now and would not run around anymore. After sending Jinjin to the door of the west wing, she ran to help the little girls. It was cold, and the two The master has to toss about, those four little girls are really too busy.
After they left, Jinjin walked into the West Wing Room alone. As soon as she entered the door, she heard a "rusting" sound, is there anyone?
Suppressing the fear in her heart, she tiptoed towards the place where the sound came from.
