The oil bottle of the Red Chamber

Because of the fact that officials from eastern Guangdong offered Poria cocos cream to You's mansion, everyone in the You family felt respectable.As the wife of the You family, Mrs. Chen is naturally honored to see her husband gaining face in front of others.It's night, so there's no need to say more about how the husband and wife spent the spring night.

It is only said that in the morning of the next day, everyone in You's family finished washing and washing, and they really took Fuling Cream according to the method You Ziyu said.Mrs. Chen herself used the method of milk and poria cocos cream. She felt that the milk was rich, smooth and delicate, and the taste was really good. She couldn't help but smiled and praised a few words.

That You Ziyu also ate human milk and Poria cocos cream—not to mention the taste, just the way of eating it made his heart flutter, and he felt it was indescribable.Seeing Mrs. Chen laughing and praising, she also echoed: "It's really mysterious, it's really mysterious. It's just that it's not as good as eating it like last night——"

Before she could finish her sentence, Mrs. Chen, who was combing her hair in front of the dressing table, had already glanced affectionately at her.A pair of bright eyes are black and white, and the waves like autumn water gently sweep across You Ziyu's body.You Ziyu immediately felt that half of his body was crispy, and immediately burst out laughing.He got up from the bed, walked slowly to Mrs. Chen, reached out to take the thrush pen in Mrs. Chen's hand, and said with a smile, "How about I draw eyebrows for Madam today?"

"You draw eyebrows for me?" Hearing this, Mrs. Chen only asked herself in the mirror, and picked the thin willow-leaf eyebrows at You Ziyu in the mirror, and asked with a half-smile, "Can you do it?"

After hearing this, You Ziyu smiled and said, "Will it be, what's the matter. The most important thing is the pleasure in the boudoir."

After all, You Ziyu really held the thrush pencil, bowed her body in front of Mrs. Chen to look carefully, and then carefully painted her eyebrows.For a long time, he curled his lips quite complacently, held Chen's shoulders to look at the mirror, and asked himself to the person in the mirror: "Madam, how do you feel?"

Mrs. Chen leaned forward, took a self-portrait in the mirror and looked carefully for half a day, then chuckled, and asked You Ziyu sideways, "Master is very good at drawing eyebrows. Haven't you practiced less on weekdays? Who have you drawn eyebrows before?" coming?"

You Ziyu loves Chen's sour and jealous coquettish appearance the most. Hearing this, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Madam is jealous? Madam, don't worry, I have never given anything to anyone except you, Madam, in my life." A woman draws her eyebrows."

Before saying a word, the little girl who was sent to watch the house replied that the old lady had woken up.For the time being, Mrs. Chen pressed the words in her mouth, only smiled and nodded to You Ziyu, and said in her mouth: "Go and pay the old lady first, and I will take care of you carefully when I come back in the evening."

You Ziyu smiled happily when he heard the words, and hurriedly bowed and begged for mercy.The husband and wife came and went back and forth for a while, before ordering Chunlan to hold Brother Bao and go up to the room to greet the old lady.

At that time, the eldest girl, the second girl, the third girl, the fourth girl and several aunts from the You family all arrived.He was talking with the old lady in the upper hall.As she mentioned that the Poria cocos cream presented by the official in eastern Guangdong yesterday was very good, the old lady even asked Mrs. Chen, "Have you ever eaten, Brother Bao?"

Mrs. Chen smiled and said: "He is a child, how dare you feed him indiscriminately. I'm afraid he won't have such a big blessing to bear it, but instead he will suffer."

When Mrs. You heard this, she thought it was reasonable.I will not ask any more questions.Mrs. Chen took advantage of the situation and said with a smile: "Yesterday, the master told me that he only asked me to send two boys to send two packs of Poria cocos cream home, which also means honoring parents. I thought, such a precious thing is not good. I sent it to someone at random, and it just so happened that I wanted to go home and visit my parents and sister-in-law—"

Before Chen's words were finished, Mrs. You already understood.Immediately waved his hand and said with a smile: "You don't need to say it, I already know it. This should be the reason. You should go back yourself."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chen was very pleased with her words, so she hurriedly stood up to express her thanks.The old lady You said again: "I think the two old relatives must miss Brother Bao after not seeing him for many days. Now the wind is clear outside and the sun is just right, so you also take Bao back home to say hello to the two old relatives." stop."

Mrs. Chen also had the same idea. Hearing this, she didn't refuse. She just said, "The old lady is still thoughtful."

You Ziyu was at the side, but his heart moved, and he immediately pointed to the eldest girl and said with a smile to Chen Shi: "You go home this time, and bring the eldest girl with you. That is also her serious Yue family, and you will have to move around more in the future. Now that we are familiar with each other, we will get along easily in the future."

When the eldest girl heard the words, she liked it in her heart, so she hurriedly got up to do so.Immediately, he rushed to the second sister, and the third sister smiled, and the joy in her eyes was beyond words.It is obvious that he sincerely regards the Chen family as a foreign family and is willing to get close.

Aunt Lan saw it in her eyes and felt very envious.She also wanted to beg Mrs. Chen to take the fourth girl with her.It's a pity that before she had time to speak, Mrs. Chen, who had already seen the clue from her expression, said first: "Oh, my master will really cause trouble for others. Originally, I went home this time to discuss with my parents and sister-in-law. Returning home and how to arrange the Mid-Autumn festival ceremony. The master asked me to take this and that, and if I can’t take care of the children, how can I discuss business matters with my parents and sister-in-law?”

After hearing this, You Ziyu smiled and said, "You like to complain. The eldest sister, the second sister, and the third sister are all so old, so they are still naughty and playful. Only Brother Bao is young. But the father-in-law and mother-in-law must miss him very much. If you say you don’t want to take him there now, you are not afraid that the father-in-law and mother-in-law will find out and beat your flesh.”

Chen Shiyuan didn't really mean to complain.It was just to use You Ziyu's mouth to plug Aunt Lan's mouth.After hearing this, I couldn't help explaining with a smile: "Master made a wise decision, I really wronged me to death. I didn't mean to be lazy. You don't know the difficulties of our two aunts—how can they be like big sisters?" Girl, she is the most docile and well-behaved girl on weekdays. She has always only helped me and never troubled me. Although Brother Bao is naughty, he is loved by the old man, the old lady, and his sister-in-law, so it doesn't show me. Only the second sister, The third sister is the one who can make ghosts when they are together. I stare at them with my eyes. If I don’t see them, I will cause trouble. It’s really a headache. If the master doesn’t believe it, you can follow me Let’s go take a look at the family together. That’s when you’ll know what I’m saying—it’s just that they’re a daughter’s family, and that’s all. If it’s a boy, I’m afraid it’s enough to go to the house.”

The old lady You and You Ziyu also knew that Chen Gui liked the third sister the most. After hearing this, they couldn't help laughing and said: "The second sister is smart, and the third sister is quick-witted. We all look very good. What's more, children If you’re at home, you should be more lively. Don’t be restrained, you’ll be like a wooden man instead.”

Before the words fell, the fourth girl who was sitting next to Aunt Lan suddenly spoke up, and said outrightly and indignantly: "Master and wife, why do you only talk about the three sisters and Brother Bao, but not me? Is it because I am not The wife's own child is a concubine, so she must be inferior? Are you unwilling to even take me to my grandfather's house?"

One word out of the mouth, all around is quiet.Not to mention the accompanying aunts of the You family, even the old lady You and You Ziyu were moved, secretly looking at Mrs. Chen's face.

It's just because since Mrs. Chen entered the door, although she has never been harsh on the fourth girl in terms of food and clothing.But she insisted on the difference between concubine and concubines, blindly admiring the three daughters from the concubine, but never letting the fourth daughter go beyond half a step.On weekdays, she socializes and walks around, even when she goes back to her mother's house, she never wants to take the fourth girl with her.Internally and externally, it is only said that the fourth girl is still young and cannot be separated from her aunt, and it is difficult to take care of her outside.

A few years ago, the fourth girl was still young, so she didn't know the reason for this.I think it's because I grew up and became sensible this year, so I naturally realized the difference between the concubine and the concubine, and it was hard to make up my mind, and besides, Aunt Lan gave her orders, so what happened today.

only……

Mrs. Chen looked coldly at Aunt Lan's expression of expectation, and the fourth girl had a somewhat resentful face, so she sneered, "I don't quite understand what the fourth girl said. Respect, shouldn’t it be humble to be born out of a concubine?”

At the end of the sentence, Mrs. Chen no longer cared about the fourth girl, but said to Aunt Lan: "The fourth girl is still young, she is not sensible, and I don't blame her. I just want to ask how Aunt Lan teaches the fourth girl on weekdays. girl's?"

When Aunt Lan heard this, she hurriedly got up to make amends, but before she could speak, the fourth girl interjected, "You don't have to make amends with your wife. My aunt didn't do anything wrong. It's just that my wife doesn't like me."

When the words came out, the aunts stood up tremblingly, and even the old lady You and You Ziyu frowned in disapproval.

Aunt Lan was so frightened that she knelt down on the ground, and when they met, she begged for forgiveness repeatedly: "Madam, calm down, madam, please. This is all the fault of the concubine. It is the concubine who failed to teach the fourth girl well. That's why the fourth girl He will utter resentful words. I also ask my wife to think that the fourth girl is still young, so let her go."

When Mrs. Chen heard the words, she smiled instead of anger, and first called Aunt Lan——Aunt Lan didn't dare to get up, and still knelt on the ground.He even dragged the fourth girl to kneel down worryingly, begging the old lady and the master at the same time.His mournful expression made even the Aunt You family, who were a bit gloating, couldn't bear it, and there was a hint of sorrow for the death of a rabbit and a fox.

Mrs. Chen ignored Aunt Lan's begging for mercy.I had no choice but to hold the tea bowl and take a sip, and then said slowly: "Aunt Lan doesn't need to apologize to me. It's just because Miss Si is right, I didn't like her, so I refused to get close to her. She doesn't like me either, so all these years I handed the fourth girl to Aunt Lan to raise, except for the food allowance according to the old rules, I ignored her. Even though she rarely came to my mother-in-law Please take care of me, and I never argue. Isn't this very good? I thought there was a tacit understanding between us. Why do you listen to the fourth girl today, and you are so resentful towards me?"

After finishing the conversation, Aunt Lan was about to answer.Seeing that Mrs. Chen waved her hand, she didn't allow Aunt Lan to answer, and asked the fourth girl directly, "Go ahead. What's your dissatisfaction with me?"

The fourth girl was taken aback when she heard this.After all, she is still a child of seven or eight years old, even if she is dissatisfied in her heart, she just complains blindly.How can I figure out why.Now when she heard Mrs. Chen asking her, she could only say with resentment and anger: "Because my wife doesn't like me, she treats me differently from the three elder sisters."

Chen Shi laughed and said: "But you don't like me either. Since you don't like me, why should I like you? I'm not a bitch, I like to stick my hot face on people's cold buttocks."

Hearing that Chen's language was vulgar, everyone in the You family couldn't help laughing.

The fourth girl was taken aback for a second, then thought for a while, and then said: "But I am my father's daughter. You shouldn't dislike me."

Chen sneered and said, "I'm still your father's famous wife. You don't like me anyway!"

Fourth girl: "..."

After half a day, the fourth girl who was already in a daze said hesitantly: "But I'm only eight years old..."

The implication is that Mrs. Chen is an adult, so how can she compete with mere children.

Hearing that Mrs. Chen didn't think about it at all, she blurted out: "Although I am old, I am your aunt. When I entered the door that day, I didn't see you respecting the elders and being filial to my aunt. You didn't greet me on weekdays. You don’t even see a single stitch. Since you don’t have the heart to respect me, why do you want me to pity the young and treat them equally?”

Fourth Miss's few words were all choked back by Mrs. Chen, she was dumbfounded for a while.
