On the morning of December [-]th, in the garden conservatory living room of the Zhou family compound, all the warblings and swallows gathered together. On the seats, which were decorated to be convenient and practical, mainly with backrest couches, the girls of the Zhou family chatted and laughed, making me happy. There are some withered gardens that add to the spring-like beauty.

On the long couch on the left, Lin Daiyu was leaning against Xue Baoqin. The two sisters were laughing and joking. They had lived together in the Xue family yard for a long time and had long been familiar with each other. On the contrary, Xue Baochai was on the same couch. But she was a little silent, even if Xue Baoqin interfered several times, it didn't make her happy.

On the lower left side, Xing Xiuyan sat between the Zhao sisters. The three of them were obviously not on the right topic, so that Xing's "secretary"'s pretty face showed a look of helplessness from time to time. She was soon pulled by Zhao Yanling, and she quickly regained her interest. , on the contrary, Zhao Qiying had a gentle expression, looking around from time to time, with a happy smile on the corner of his mouth.

The people on the right, Yingchun and Shi Xiangyun, were equally happy. They seemed to be talking about Go, and no one else could pick up the conversation. On the bottom, there were two "acquaintances", Li Wan and Qin Keqing. Although they were the same Coming from the Jia family, they usually don't have much communication. Today is the first substantial contact between the two.

Basically, except for the two princesses and Dongfang Bing, and Wang Shuying, who was really inconvenient to show up, the other girls were all here, so that several girls who were also close or had "communicated" with each other, Qingwen, Suyun, Ying'er, Zhen Yinglian and even Xueyan were all very busy. Either they were short of tea here or there were no snacks there, and they couldn't ask "outsiders" to help because there were still a few people here who couldn't be made public.

"Hee hee, why did Sister Lin come here today?" The four "waves" were not without communication, and they would talk to each other from time to time. He ran away and ran into Lin Daiyu's arms, saying nonsense, "Everyone in this room is named Zhou, but I don't know what's wrong with my sister?"

"Damn you, it's okay if others say this. Where do you have the face to talk nonsense?" Lin Daiyu's cheeks were red with shame, but her "defiant" temper was not diminished at all. "I also accepted Sister Bao's post and went to Xue's house to have fun. One day, you are half the master after all, where do you get the naughtiness from? Besides, the other sisters are just surnamed Zhou, what are you talking nonsense about from the Mei family?"

"Hmph, then I don't care. Anyway, the daughter's family's marriage is difficult to control, and she can't escape the 'parental order'. The Mei family has its own father to deal with, and Brother Zhou is in charge. What should I worry about?" Lin Daiyu asked. Everyone in the living room laughed at his words, but Xue Baoqin was not shy at all, "On the other hand, Master Lin, I'm afraid he doesn't know that his precious daughter is already..."

"Don't say it!" Lin Daiyu didn't know Xue Baoqin's teasing, so she picked up a snack and blocked the subsequent topic. When she was hugged by someone, she would not foolishly think that "Sister Qin" was separated by a wall. I really don’t know, “You’re so stupid, you dare to open your mouth about anything, if I don’t take care of you!”

"Oh, you've been silenced!" Xue Baoqin ate up all the snacks in a few seconds. While avoiding Lin Daiyu's "torture", he continued to tease, "Sister Bao, help me, your little sister is being bullied!"

"You don't shy away from anything you say, so you deserve to be beaten to death." After all, Xue Baochai still rescued his sister from "Lin Bawang", "Sister Lin came here after taking my post, how could she have a master?" Is there a fight between the family and the guests? Look at the second sister and sister Yun, aren’t they having a good time?”

"Oh, the second sister is now the 'master' too!" She is still "on duty" with Princess Yongchang, "but there are two sisters who, although they have seen a lot, are really 'outsiders'."

"You damn hooves, you can say this!" Xue Baochai's expression froze, and he quickly covered Xue Baoqin's mouth, and cast apologetic looks at Li Wan and Qin Keqing.

"Sister Bao, don't be offended. I don't know this girl's temperament. Just let her go." Qin Keqing said politely, but then stood up and came over, "tugged" Xue Baoqin and returned to her seat, "I don't How can you not let others tell you how to be a woman? He is a non-vegetarian to begin with, isn't this all done yet?"

"Not to mention the two princesses, Sister Dongfang is used to it. Is it possible that Sister Keqing also knows about outsiders?" While avoiding Qin Keqing's "attack", Xue Baoqin did not forget to tease, "On the other hand, Brother Zhou, the younger sister has never I asked, it seems I need to be more careful in the future.”

"There are two young grandmothers in Ningrong's second house, and there is one more who can't be idle." Li Wan made the whole place fall silent with one sentence, and everyone looked at her in disbelief, "What, you don't believe it? How can I?" One day I brought Feng Lazi here, and you will know that we will inevitably see each other from now on, so it doesn't hurt to say hello first." "Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law Lian is really here," Yingchun asked in disbelief. After all, Jia Lian is her colleague. Her half-brother, in comparison, her blood relationship with Wang Xifeng is closer - the reality is another matter, "It's not like her hotheaded little sister doesn't know, how could this be so?"

"What kind of cruel and short-lived habit do you know?" Li Wan said angrily, making all the girls at the scene blush except Lin Daiyu, "There is a wall between me and Feng Lazi, and she has already cheated on her. All my dignity has been lost. If I hadn’t really seen it, I would never have thought that it would be like this one day.”

"Sister-in-law!" Lin Daiyu's cheeks turned red after hearing this, and she couldn't help shouting. Although she hadn't really "participated" yet, she didn't know anything.

"Sister, what do you have to worry about? I'm still here anyway." Xue Baochai said something faintly, leaving the other girls at a loss for words. "Okay, I've accepted my fate. That cruel man returned to the university on the first day." Zhou, my little sister has already met him. How could he have thought at that time that he would have such an opportunity? If he had known this earlier."

"Sister Bao must let uncle settle the matter as soon as possible." Xue Baoqin jumped back into her cousin's arms with a smile and said, but after saying that, she just let her hug her, and everyone at the scene stopped talking because they didn't know what to do. explain.

Although Zhou Yang has always tried his best to "make a bowl of water even", another meaning of this saying is that it is actually "not even". If nothing else is mentioned, let's just say that today's girls' gathering, except for the already empty main seat , Lin Daiyu has not even decided on a position yet, but she still sits in the top position. Because Lin Ruhai is the minister of the dynasty, even if Princess Yongjing comes in in the future, she must be more polite to her.

Xue Baoqin danced around because everyone present knew that after the New Year and the first month of the year, she would be able to win the title of "Princess Princess", with a higher nominal status than Lin Daiyu; the live chat was either a "small circle private chat" or The three people on the couch at the top took the lead. The Zhao sisters and Xing Xiuyan, as well as the lively Shi Xiangyun, have not spoken yet after entering the "group discussion"?
"Sister Bao, you should be more open-minded." Li Wan sighed softly, and then hugged Qin Keqing with a smile, "As the saying goes, 'men are afraid of doing the wrong thing, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man.' After all, you have not really felt sorry for any of us. After all, you are also the aunt who has entered the Zhou family, and you have been granted Ruyi by the Supreme Emperor. I am afraid that the two of us will have to do this in the future.

Just talk about Sister Keqing, Brother Rong is still here in Dongfu, isn't she also here in the yard?It's just that in this world, where is there really an airtight wall?Let’s just talk about Uncle Zhen’s funeral a few days ago. Even though it was Brother Qiang who threw the pot, it still had to be supported by the family members. In the end, it wasn’t Feng Yatou who went to make the scene fun. Do you really think everyone else is stupid? "

"Sister Bao, why should you worry? Isn't there still a little sister here?" Seeing Xue Baochai's depression, Lin Daiyu smiled and said, "You are all members of the Zhou family, but my little sister is working as a Lin here with no name or status." As for the girl, I don’t know whether she was lucky or unjust when she met Brother Zhou."

"I don't know what Brother Zhou is doing now. Isn't it just that the imperial court is sealing the seal today and all the officials are going to go and watch the scene?" Seeing that the scene was a bit depressing, Xing Xiuyan, who had been silent for a long time, changed the subject with a smile, "It's almost noon now. I’m afraid he may have other plans during the meal.”

"Can I still be hungry? I still have a yard." Xue Baoqin pouted and complained, making the girls laugh, which just relieved the depressing atmosphere. "Anyway, the two princesses will not treat him harshly. What else do we have to worry about? It’s better to think about what to eat for lunch, our Gao Le is the serious one—Sister Yun, why haven’t I seen you talking?”

"What are you talking about? Although Sister Lin has not decided anything, and Master Lin is helping to make the decision, I can't even find a person who makes the decision now." Shi Xiangyun sighed softly, seeing that the other sisters were either puzzled or sympathetic. Looking at him, he smiled bitterly and said, "The two brothers from the second uncle's family have now entered the Shenji Camp, holding the title of Vice-Thousand Households, and taking on the responsibility of the Hundred Households that are in short supply."

"Sister Yun means that now Brother Zhou has sent a 'betrothal gift'?" Xue Baoqin ran to Shi Xiangyun's side with a smile and said, "No wonder Sister Bao's post entered the Lin Mansion this time, so I can only let Sister Lin come over to be happy. Today, when it comes to Sister Yun's place, she doesn't mention the time at all, no matter how long it takes."

"Yes, the princess!" Shi Xiangyun hugged Xue Baoqin angrily, and said "viciously" while gritting his teeth, "I can't escape Brother Zhou's yard anyway. Fortunately, he is not very particular. County So what, Lord? It’s a pity that you are still so young, no matter how much you say, you will be bullied, let’s see if I don’t take advantage of the opportunity to get some money back first!”

"Not just Sister Yun, I don't have to worry about being alone here." Yingchun sighed quietly.

The other girls looked at each other and laughed. For a moment, the atmosphere in the living room was no longer so depressing.
