Mother's family 1
December 20, 23rd year of Yongzhi, Beijing.
In the middle of winter, goose feathers and heavy snow fell in the sky, making the entire capital clothed in silver.
As the best place in the Ming Dynasty, even when the snow is falling, there is an endless stream of pedestrians in the streets and alleys.
At this moment, in the streets and alleys of Beicheng, there is a team that is particularly eye-catching.
Two delicate sedan chairs, surrounded by a group of servants and maids, slowly walked forward, leaving messy footprints on the snow on the street.
Among the two warm sedan chairs, the curtain of the sedan chair at the back was gently lifted, and you could see a delicate girl with a sad look inside.
The girl was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and looking at the unfamiliar environment around her made her feel even more insecure, so she lowered the curtain and tightened the cloak that wrapped around her body.
"Your mother died suddenly, and your father was busy with official business and neglected to take care of you, this time your grandmother sent someone to pick you up, so you can go in peace!"
"Your grandmother loves you very much, there are still a lot of sisters in the Shen Mansion, and you have playmates to talk to......
Recalling her father's parting words, Chu Qing'er's eyes couldn't help but burst into tears, her fate was indeed a little tragic.
At this moment, the maid outside the sedan chair said, "Miss, just turn a corner further!" ”
Chu Qing'er hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, she was the daughter of the Chu family, and her upbringing from childhood to adulthood told her that she must not lose face to her Chu family for a while.
The sedan chair continued to move forward, and was soon carried outside the Shen family, and there was already a servant woman at the side door to greet him.
"Please Miss Chu enter the East Gate!"
Along the wide-open east corner door, Chu Qing'er was carried into the Shen family, and the sedan chair finally fell.
The maid lifted the curtain, and the servants and maids waiting outside could see Chu Qing'er's delicate face.
As soon as Chu Qing'er came out of the sedan chair, she heard a servant woman say, "Miss, Mrs. Tai is already waiting in the main hall......
Chu Qing'er was about to take a look at the Shen family, but when she heard this, she didn't dare to delay any longer, so she went to the main hall under the guidance of the servant.
The old lady of the Shen family, the Wu family, is Shen Yue's biological mother, and naturally enjoys a high status in the Shen family.
The old man moved to live outside the city, and the entire Shen family, the Wu family, was the biggest, and her joy and anger also affected the entire Shen Mansion.
In Wang Siniang's small courtyard, Shen Yi was sitting by the stove at the moment, looking up and down with a small dress in her hand, which was prepared for the child in her belly.
Seeing his daughter's priority, Wang Sisi had something to say in his heart? But I don't know where to start for a while.
"Mother? Say whatever you want, but don't suffocate yourself! Shen Yi smiled slightly.
Seeing that it doesn't matter what my daughter looks like here? Wang Siniang said angrily: "Are you really stupid or pretending to be stupid?" What is going on in the house now, don't you know? ”
"What's the situation?" Shen Yi said with a smile unchanged.
"The old lady personally greeted the little lady of the Chu family, and the whole house went to the main hall at this moment? You're fine...... It's like nobody! Wang Siniang said with an ugly expression.
"You're saying that your daughter should go to the main hall now?" Shen Yi still said with an indifferent attitude.
"Isn't it?" Wang Siniang was quite helpless.
"Mother? Am I a married daughter? The affairs of the Shen Mansion have nothing to do with me! ”
Hearing her daughter's "rebellious" words, Wang Siniang can be said to be shocked on the spot, can this be said casually?
"The water spilled by the daughter who got married? Not to mention...... Except for you in this house? And a few more who treat me as a daughter! ”
Shen Yi's words made Wang Siniang speechless to refute, their mother and daughter have not been comfortable in Shen Mansion over the years.
But in the blink of an eye, I only heard Wang Siniang say: "That's what I said, but you can't be too willful?" Even if you don't think about yourself, you should always think about Xiaoting! ”
"Now that he has received the ministry in the capital? In the future, it is indispensable to ask for the help of the Shen Mansion, you can't make the relationship too stiff! ”
Shen Yi couldn't help but be stunned? She really didn't think about this, so she said helplessly: "Since you said so, mother?" Looks like I'm really going to see that cousin! ”
"People are the meat of the old lady's heart? It's quite pitiful for my mother to die......"
…………
The Shen family's main hall? Chu Qing'er was helped in by the servants and maids, and several girls immediately greeted her.
These are all young ladies who have not been out of the cabinet in the house, the Shen family has a big business, Shen Yue is the second in the family (the eldest died early), and there is a brother below.
The two brothers are from the Wu family, and at this moment, Chu Qing'er, the niece and daughter, is back, and the two uncles naturally want their families to come to greet them.
But Chu Qing'er is a daughter after all, so all the people who appear in the main hall at this moment are all female dependents.
After saluting with the sisters and the two aunts, Chu Qing'er came to the Wu family.
Wu's sideburns are all white, and her eyes are blurred with tears at this moment, and when she sees Chu Qing'er, she seems to see her daughter who died early.
"Granddaughter knocks on her grandmother!" Chu Qing'er bowed and said.
"Hurry up...... Lift up, my heart! Wu said with a cane.
Without waiting for the maids to leave, Shen Quan's wife immediately stepped forward and helped Chu Qing'er up from the ground.
"Sister, hurry up, the ancestor has been thinking about you!" Ye smiled.
Next, Chu Qing'er and Mrs. Wu hugged their heads and cried again, which also added a bit of sadness to the main hall.
It's not a matter to keep crying like this, but I saw Shen Yue's wife Tao Shi get up to comfort her, and there was another noble lady with her.
After the grief was gone, Mrs. Wu introduced everyone in the room to Chu Qing'er one by one.
"This is your second aunt...... This is your third aunt......"
After pointing to the Tao family and the two concubines, Wu Lao Taijun pointed to the Ye family and said, "This is your sister-in-law......"
"I've seen my sister-in-law......"
Next, it was Tao who introduced a group of sisters to Chu Qing'er.
In fact, before Chu Qing'er came, her father carefully introduced the Shen family to her, and she was paying close attention to the more respectable status.
The daughters born by the two aunts, Chu Qing'er looked carefully, while the other concubines and sisters only nodded in acquaintance.
It's no wonder that Chu Qing'er's forces are unfamiliar, the Shen Mansion is very strange to her, and she must be treated differently in order to protect herself.
Who you can't provoke, and who you have to pay more attention to...... Even if she has the protection of Mrs. Wu in the Shen Mansion, Chu Qing'er still has to consider the human relationship.
Just as Chu Qing'er and everyone were seated again, they heard a beautiful voice outside.
"Oops...... Sorry, I'm late......"
Through the screen, Chu Qing'er vaguely saw that it was a woman coming in, but her walking speed was slower than ordinary people.
At this moment, Chu Qing'er saw her sister-in-law Ye get up, and she, as the eldest daughter-in-law, personally greeted her.
This made Chu Qing'er feel even more strange, who in the mansion had such a big face, and asked the Ye family to greet him in person.
Just when Chu Qing'er thought of this, she saw Ye Shi walking in with a woman with a beautiful face, this person was Shen Yi, who was late.
Seeing Shen Yi holding her pregnant belly, Chu Qing'er was even more curious, she really couldn't remember that this was the character of the Shen family.
Fortunately, Tao on the side spoke: "This is your third sister Shen Yi!" ”
Third sister Shen Yi, Chu Qing'er knew that the other party was a concubine, but how could a concubine be so favored in the Shen family.
Even if the pregnant person is more taken care of, Shen Yi is only a married concubine, how can she let Ye's eldest daughter-in-law support her.
And at the top, the old lady Wu also spoke: "Hurry up and look at the seat, don't move the tire gas!" ”
Even the old grandmother cares so much, what is this third sister's ability? Chu Qing'er's doubts became more and more intense.
At the same time, Chu Qing'er also had a hint of jealousy in her heart, she should have been the protagonist here and today, but she was robbed of the limelight by this belated third sister.
And at this moment, Shen Yi walked in front of Chu Qing'er, looked up and down before saying: "This is Qing'er's sister, she was really born with Peugeot, just like the fairy daughter in the sky, no wonder the ancestor regarded it as a pearl in his palm!" ”
These words were even more beautiful, and everyone in the hall had a smile on their faces, and Mrs. Wu was even more impressed by Shen Yi's words.
"Sit and sit...... All sit! Mrs. Wu greeted everyone. Baidu search Le'an Xuanshu Net(乐安宣书网)
