Chapter 56 The Eighth Birthday
Chapter 56 The Eighth Birthday
Yao Shan responded, then stopped, turned around, took the glowing red envelope, and opened it for a look.It turned out to be an invitation post, saying that it was the old lady of Yu's house celebrating her birthday, and she wanted to invite all the people in You's house, including my aunt and grandma, to have a lively and lively time.
A post was written in half-text, half-white, solemn and somewhat awkward, but it was written like a person, as if it was written by her uncle who suddenly came to the door.
Yao Shan read it again, and then said with a smile: "It turned out to be the uncle's post. But, didn't our wife keep saying that her grandmother left early, and she only relied on her grandfather for her life since she was a child? Where did this old lady come from?" of?"
You Shi also smiled and sighed: "I also said, this is a nonsensical post, but it's a special post for me. Don't go if you want to, and I'm afraid that our wife will feel uneasy. Didn’t he still say that his body is not comfortable, if it happens again because of this matter, he will get sick and hurt again, it’s our fault.”
Yao Shan thought of her mother's frightened appearance, and couldn't help but sighed: "Elder sister is right. I don't know how my wife made troubles in the past. I have never seen her like that since I was born." Melancholy."
You Shi sighed: "It's not easy for Mom. Grandma left early, and the family is in such a shape. As an unmarried girl, she must have suffered a lot, so that's why she is like this."
Yao Shan saw that Youshi's tone of addressing Mrs. You suddenly got a lot closer, so she knew that she had some empathy, and something hurt her.Could it be that this elder sister's mother died young, and she lived alone in the inner house for so many years.Unexpectedly, because of such an incident, the relationship between her and Mrs. You's stepmother and daughter became much closer.
It's just that they are very curious about who this old lady of the Yu family is.She had asked You Shi, and knew that there was nothing important about the "big birthday" mentioned in the post, so she begged You Shi to go with her.You Shi was naturally willing to go, and it just so happened that Yao Shan asked for help again, so she had a new step, and by the way, she even had an excuse to go out—accompanied her sister to visit her natal relatives, it couldn't be more legitimate.
So Yao Shan asked Mrs. You to write back to Mrs. You the next day, saying that the two sisters would accompany them to the birthday banquet.After explaining all these trivial matters clearly, she just went back to her yard to rest.
Just lying on the couch, but suddenly remembered that Mrs. You might not be so anxious after reading this post, so she simply decided to get up the next day and go back.
The next day, she got up early in the morning and reported to You Shi. She didn't even see Jia Mu, so she hurried home.Sure enough, as soon as he entered the house, he saw Mrs. You chattering with Second Sister You worriedly. When she saw Yao Shan coming back, she was naturally overjoyed. Cut to the point.
Mrs. You suffered a lot when she was young, and she still had a bit of a pungent temper at first, but as she got older in the past two years, she became more and more afraid of things.Her knot of heart is naturally still on the biological mother and aunt who indirectly forced Uncle Yu to death in the past.Yao Shan persuaded her a few words, and seeing that she was still anxious, she knew that the knot in her heart had lasted too long, and she might not be able to untangle it in a short time.She felt helpless, but she still smiled and said: "Since Madam doesn't like to associate with the eldest uncle of the Yu family, let's not go."
Mrs. You sighed and said: "That's not good. Last time I came here, I gave you such an important gift. We are also a well-educated family. We can't let people take it lightly, saying that our family doesn't know how to reciprocate and has no rules."
Yao Shan secretly thought that it was true, but finally she couldn't help laughing and said: "Since Madam said so, what will happen?"
Second Sister You had served Old Lady You a cup of tea, and now she was bringing a cup of tea to Yao Shan. After hearing this, she smiled and said, "If I tell you, teach Elder Sister to bring me and Shan'er Let's go, Mrs. Zuo and Zuo are not feeling well these two days, so it's better to rest at home."
Mrs. You thought for a moment, then shook her head and said: "It's not good, it seems that I'm afraid of them. But what can I do if I have two stinky money? I didn't force her, she herself Jumping into the river has nothing to do with me."
That's what she said, and her tone was very tough.However, the sorrow in the corners of her brows and eyes completely betrayed her heart—but whoever has a clear conscience, how can he be so bluffing?It's nothing more than feeling ashamed in my heart.After all, Mrs. You is not a ruthless person. Even if she has a little temper, how dare she seriously force someone to death?
Yao Shan sighed, thinking to himself that the person who untied the bell had to tie it, who is that old lady, I'm afraid she would have to meet her in person to feel at ease.
She was only focused on talking to Mrs. You, and when she didn't pay attention, she had already seen the second sister serving tea to herself, so she hurriedly stood up and took it with both hands, saying, "Don't dare to bother the second sister", and then said: " Since that's the case, then please trouble your wife to take the eldest sister and the second sister to go with me."
While they were talking, rumors spread that the young master of the Lin family and Aunt Xie had arrived.Mrs. You was overjoyed, and hurriedly took Second Sister You and Yao Shan to welcome her out.Sure enough, her cousin Xie Shi came with Lin Moyu, and she was getting off the sedan chair with the help of maids and women.
Mrs. You hurriedly took Second Sister You and Yao Shan to meet her, and said with a smile: "Sister, why are you here today? I just heard yesterday that your whole family has followed Mr. Lin to Beijing, and she was talking about taking the girls to see Look at you."
I haven't seen her for several years, but Aunt Xie's face is still fresh, but she looks more and more dignified.Although she is still an aunt, since she is the only one left in the whole mansion, she has to take care of Lin Ruhai's daily life, and the life and homework of Lin Daiyu and Lin Moyu, as well as the ups and downs of the mansion. All sorts of miscellaneous things.After so many years, this cousin who didn't care about anything before and had the most docile temperament has become a lot more aura after tossing around, and she is quite like a mistress.
Seeing Mrs. You leading her two daughters to greet her, she hurriedly took Mrs. You's hand and said with a smile: "Sister, what are you talking about? The reasoning is that I should visit my sister first. How can I teach my sister?" The principle is that you come first." She said, and ordered Lin Moyu to call someone: "Brother Mo, this is your aunt of the You family, and the second and third sisters."
That Lin Moyu was already six or seven years old, and she was born with delicate features, and she looked like Lin Ruhai.The Lin family has always been a scholarly family, and they have already been enlightened, so they naturally have a bookish look, but they look more upright and beautiful than Jia Su, who is about the same age.Even the bones of the body still don't look good, it is very thin, and it looks like it will collapse when the wind blows, which makes people look a little worried.
Hearing Aunt Xie calling him, Lin Moyu responded, and then respectfully came forward to salute Mrs. You, Second Sister You and Yao Shan.Seeing that Lin Moyu was born so well, Mrs. You fell in love with her a long time ago, she immediately took his hand and said with a smile: "Brother Mo was born really well, hurry up, it's cold outside, let's go sit inside."
So everyone walked into the house in a mighty way, Yao Shan walked last, seeing that the people in front were not paying attention, she secretly gave Xiaotao a wink and whispered to prepare a meeting gift for Lin Moyu.Then he rushed a few steps, and finally entered the house with his second sister.
Mrs. You naturally invited Aunt Xie to sit down, how could Aunt Xie agree?Therefore, the two gave way for a while, and it was Mrs. You who took the seat, and Aunt Xie was next to her. Second Sister You and Yao Shan inevitably greeted Aunt Xie again.
Second Sister You and Yao Shan each got two boxes of golden lockets, and Lin Moyu got a set of the Four Treasures of the Study and ten golden lockets of the "No. [-] Scholar".Because almost no other relatives come here on weekdays, these things are still prepared for Jia Su every year, because Yao Shan always prepares them, so Mrs. You and Second Sister You did not expect that they would meet Yao Shan early After preparing it and taking it out, they were very happy. After admiring that it was Yao Shan who was careful, the second sister inevitably had to reflect on her lack of detail, and she must think more about it next time.
Let's say that Aunt Xie looked at Mrs. You and said that she was in good health and complexion, just like what she said back then.Then he turned his attention to Second Sister You, and naturally he was full of admiration.When he arrived at Yao Shan's place, he said a few light words instead, but he didn't mention a single word of thanking her for saving her in the past.
Yao Shan didn't think anything, because the front yard said that Mr. You had come back to the mansion, so Aunt Xie sent Lin Moyu to greet Mr. You.Then I just said a few words about the antecedents, it was nothing more than my elder brother was getting older, and my mind was heavy, so it was not good to mention anything in front of him, so it seemed that I was not polite to Yao Shan.
Yao Shan naturally exchanged some pleasantries, and then she changed the subject and got to the point: "Brother Yu's family posted a post to our house, saying that the old lady in their house had a birthday, I wonder if my sister has received the post ?”
Mrs. You couldn't help being surprised, and said: "They also sent you a post?"
Aunt Xie smiled and said: "Exactly. And our master just entered the capital the day before yesterday, so he didn't know that they were so well informed that they found the door of our house." When she said this, she paused , just now asked with some doubts: "Sister, you said this big brother in the family, but isn't that one?"
Mrs. You couldn't help but look a little ugly, and said embarrassingly: "There is only one brother in our family, who else could it be? Naturally it is him."
Aunt Xie became more and more confused: "Then where did this old lady come from?"
Mrs. You's complexion became more and more ugly. Seeing this, Yao Shan had no choice but to go up to answer the words: "My aunt doesn't know, and we are also wondering. Not only my aunt and our family received this post, but also It's my elder sister's house, and I received it too. Because there was nothing to do that day, the big guys were discussing to go and have a look. Fortunately, my aunt is also here, so I don't know if I will be free that day? If my aunt It would be the best if we could go together.”
