The majestic sister of the red mansion

Sister Fang smiled after hearing this, and said neither humble nor defiant: "What stupid things are you talking about? It is Xiaofang's good fortune to come to pick up my aunt. My aunt, miss, and master are paying their respects to my wife. No, when I heard that you came , hurriedly ordered to pick you up, these two are Nanny Shi’s brother Xi and sister Yue! Sure enough, Xiaolan, you take the two of you to the side hall for a cup of mung bean soup and some snacks.”

"Both of you, thank you sister." Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhao knew that Mrs. Jia was going to invite her in and let the two children wait in the side hall, so she saw Sun Zixi waiting for Xiaofang to finish her speech. After looking at her asking for instructions, he hurriedly responded with a smile, and glanced at Mo Yue with some uneasiness.

Mo Yue smiled slightly at the slightly worried grandmother Zhao. Anyway, under the circumstances of unequal status, she was not interested in seeing the ancient noble lady, so she raised her hand to hold Brother Xi's hand, and said sweetly: "Grandma, Yue'er I want to eat dim sum with my brother, Sister Lan, is the dim sum at Madam's house delicious? Is there any sweet-scented osmanthus cake? Yue'er likes sweet-scented osmanthus cake the most."

"Of course, there are not only sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, but also chrysanthemum cakes, honey food, shortbread, etc. Come and let me take you to see." Xiaolan is very good at business, after hearing what Mo Yue said, she hurried over to pick her up Xiaoshou led Brother Xi to the gate of the main courtyard, stood to one side, and looked at Xiaofang.

Brother Xi looked at grandma and younger sister, and finally broke away from Xiaolan's hand, walked to Mo Yue's side and held her by his side, saying, "Thank you, sister Lan, for leading the way. I'll just take my sister by the hand."

"Auntie and Nanny Shi are really lucky to have such a smart and well-behaved child, Auntie, please come inside." Xiaofang boasted, but led Mrs. Zhao to the main courtyard gate.

Mrs. Zhao nodded hurriedly, followed, and said as she walked: "Miss Fang, I made you laugh. My little granddaughter is still young. Whenever she hears about food, she will..."

After Mrs. Zhao and Xiaofang entered the gate of the courtyard, Xiaolan brought Brother Xi and Mo Yue jjj behind her, but she was talking and laughing non-stop as if she had walked through the second gate from the corner gate to the main courtyard just now. At this moment, she feels very cautious in her words and deeds, and she refuses to take a step down when she walks. While making Mo Yue look funny, she has to lament the ancient dignity and strict rules.

In this way, as Xiaolan walked towards the main courtyard, she could see the backs of Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Fang in front of her, and vaguely heard what the two of them were talking as they walked, but Mo Yue didn't waste her ear to listen. How shrewd and comprehensive, she has already understood in two years of life, and she believes that even in this big house, grandma will never lose her sense of proportion.

Because she and her elder brother were taking short steps, not only could she not hear the sound after a while, but she couldn't even see the shadows of people. It was the main courtyard of this ancient mansion that made her look dazzled. "Diaolianghuadong" is a simple description. If I really want to find suitable adjectives, I can't find a few sentences based on Mo Yue's classical literature. I just think it's too delicate.

Where is the house, it looks like the villas and imperial gardens in modern movies, with rockery and flowing water, roads and paths paved with various pebbles, with flowers or grass on both sides of the road, which is called the main courtyard. Passing through two small gates that allow three or four people to walk side by side, one is circular and the other is octagonal. She is only a science student in modern times, and she can't name these ancient things.

Doors like this have disappeared in the modern city, so I don’t know, so I just read it and kept it in my heart, and followed my brother to go inside. After passing through those two doors, it’s really spacious this time, and the flowers and plants are full of space. They are planted against the wall along the root of the corridor, and facing them is a glazed tile house facing south, which is estimated to have five rooms, with rolled tiles and long eaves.

The carved windows are inlaid with shining transparent glass. Although the book says that the glass was created by Princess Anning, it was the first time she saw it in ancient times, but she had never seen a glass cup or a fruit plate at home. She was thinking, either the glass manufacturing technology is not up to standard, or the glass production technology is controlled, which is a luxury.

Now that she saw the window of Master Lin’s house, she confirmed the latter conjecture. It seems that in this era, glass is not an object that ordinary people can afford. Mo Yue's hand couldn't help but tighten, glass is just an ordinary thing in modern times, how come it has become a symbol of wealth and honor here.

Mo Yue amusedly felt the wetness secreted from her elder brother's palm, and secretly thought that a child is a child, no matter how popular she pretended to be, at the end of the day, she missed something. Xiaolan was leading her and her brother forward, a little far away from the main house, Mo Yue had no time to take a closer look, but when she turned around, she vaguely saw a few figures standing neatly beside the couplets at the main entrance of the main house.

She was led by Xiaolan to the slightly lower side rooms on the east and west sides of the main room. The east side room was in the direction of the side room. Mo Yue understood that this was probably the so-called side room. When she arrived at someone else's site, she had to listen to their arrangements. She obediently Followed in, and as soon as she entered the room, she saw four windows wide open, fine gauze as curtains, and some calligraphy and paintings hung on the walls. She, a science student, did not understand what the calligraphy and paintings meant.

As soon as I glanced over, I turned to other places. Needless to say, those carved beams and paintings, the decorations are also more atmospheric than those in the TV series. I saw a bed in the middle, a low table in the middle, and fine-woven summer mats on both sides. , two steps down from the bed, there are four chairs standing respectively, and the floor between the chairs is covered with clean and bright mats.

The corner of Mo Yue's mouth twitched when she saw it, it was so clean, how could anyone get off her feet? Black and purple furniture are not necessarily unsightly, but also depends on the quality of the paint and the choice of wood materials.

Like in this living room, no matter the beams, columns, slabs, tables, chairs, etc., are all moist and shiny with lacquer, and the black will reflect the light, coupled with wood grain carvings, this is incomparable to modern furniture.

"Brother Xi and Sister Yue, you go into the room and wait for a while. I'll get you some snacks and mung bean soup, and I'll be back in a while." Xiaolan didn't know the two people's worries, opened the door, finished talking to them, and then backed out .

Mo Yue saw Xiaolan leaving as soon as she said, and her brother stood there at a loss, not wanting to let her brother leave the feeling of being a bumpkin in the city when she was young, so she stamped her feet to shake off the dust on her feet, and ran into the house and collapsed on the chair. He pretended to be clumsy and tried to climb up a few times, but when he failed to climb up, he said with a bitter face: "Brother, hold Yue'er to the chair, Yue'er wants to sit on the chair."

"Hey! Why did you run in, will you dirty the mat?" Lin Yuanxi muttered a few words, seeing that there was no footprint of her sister left on the mat, she also stomped her feet like Mo Yue, and walked in in a mature manner. He picked up Mo Yue and put it on a chair, then he also found a chair next to Mo Yue, climbed up and sat down, with a serious face.

Looking at Xiao Lin Qiyuan's real appearance, Mo Yue couldn't stop laughing, thinking, fortunately, the new clothes, new shoes and socks I wore today, and the car I took when I came here, entered the mansion, and the road was cleaned, otherwise today It's embarrassing, she can say, a dust-removing spell, everything will be solved, and my brother, who cares about face, doesn't want to kill himself in his heart.

Mo Yue was thinking about how his brother would react after making a fool of himself, when footsteps could be heard outside the hall, before the person arrived, the smell of incense powder came to his nose faintly, Mo Yue frowned, according to the influence of two years of Zhai Dou novels, Immediately understood that the person who came here was someone who liked to wear rouge and face powder. This hobby was fine outside, but in the mansion he would appear unsafe. It seemed that he had to be careful. I wonder if he was targeting her and his brother.

"Yo! This is Brother Xi and Sister Yue from Nanny Shi's natal family, right? Why are you sitting here and no one is with you? Come, come and sit at my place. I have snacks and sour plum soup!" As soon as he arrived at the door, he immediately smiled and said.

The corners of Mo Yue Ting's mouth twitched, and she immediately pretended to have innocent eyes, and looked at the person who came, only to see that the person was wearing a light green satin dress and a pink silk skirt, with a gorgeous face and a good figure, a gold hairpin, jade rings on her ears, About 30 years old, dressed very expensively, but not a trace of red, when I saw it at the end of the month, I had a guess in my heart, this is probably a concubine?

She remembered that the young master of her mother's milk was born in the main family. She heard from grandma and Xiaolan that she was trusted by the wife of the family. After entering the mansion, she heard that other people talked about Nanny Shi. She also guessed that her mother was doing well here. But once this trust heard that they got close to concubines and aunts in the mansion, would they come back?How could it be such a coincidence that when Xiao Lan walked forward, she came back.

Isn't there a maid and mother-in-law by her side?Mo Yue was worried that her elder brother was young and didn't understand the dangers of the mansion, so she would answer immediately, and was about to speak first, when her elder brother Yuan Xi frowned, and said in a childish and old-fashioned voice: "No need, Yuan Xi will take my younger sister here to wait for grandma , thank you for your kindness."

"Your grandma, I know, I just saw her go to see the madam, and I think it will take a long time to talk! My place is not far from here, it's okay for a good child to sit for a while." The woman raised her eyebrows and said Smiling, he walked into the hall while talking, and when he walked in front of Yuan Xi and Mo Yue, he was about to reach out to rub Yuan Xi's hair.

But I didn't want Yuan Xi to stare at her when she saw this movement, and while hiding back, she scolded in a childish voice: "You woman is so rude, men and women have different seats at seven years old, and you can't be confused. I'm already seven years old. You're so old, you're so rude!"

"Pfft." Hearing that, Mo Yue chuckled, brother, his words were too forceful, seeing the woman froze there, her face turned blue, and she wanted to force a smile, her brother swayed on the chair to avoid someone's stiff Stop it, she really wanted to laugh, but thinking of being known that they had been alone with this woman, it probably wouldn't be good for her mother.

She suppressed her smile, and protected her brother with her true energy, and then threw a burst of energy at the leg of his chair. There was a click, and the chair, which was already wobbly, was hit by one leg, and immediately fell to the ground. Protected by true energy, she was not injured, but Mo Yue looked panic-stricken and cried loudly. That's not counting, she also purposely passed the crying faintly to the main room.
