Su Jinxuan listened to Su Rouhui's words, and suddenly felt a little panicked when holding the brocade box. He said to Su Rouhui: "If the fourth sister likes it, Jinxuan will give it to the fourth sister." ”

The fifth girl laughed beside her and asked, "What if I like the fifth sister too?" ”

Su Rouhui immediately looked at the fifth girl with some dissatisfaction.

The seventh and eighth girls also seemed to look at it with some envy.

Su Jinxuan suddenly took this brocade box like a hot potato, neither advancing nor retreating.

Su Jinyu didn't like to see the man's indecision, so she pressed the brocade box back into Su Jinxuan's arms and said, "My sisters like it, big brother will bring it to you next time." The second brother is going to Qilin Academy when he is out of the festival, and this ink is now the time for him to use it. ”

Hearing that the eldest grandson had arranged for the second grandson to study at Qilin Academy, Mrs. Hou was very pleased. No matter what her daughter's thoughts are, the male grandson under her knees still knows that the Hou Mansion is the most important thing and the blood is the most important.

Old Madam Hou looked at Su Jinxuan eagerly and instructed: "Qilin Academy has produced many talents, and it is the best academy in the capital and even in the country. The student qualifications of Qilin Academy are not sold for ten thousand gold, Jinxuan, you have entered the academy, you must not live up to your eldest brother's high expectations for you. ”

Su Jinxuan saw the love in Mrs. Hou's eyes, and her heart was sour, so she knelt down. He opened his mouth to say what he had been looking forward to for a long time: "The grandson does not dare to live up to the high expectations of his grandmother, father, mother, and eldest brother. It's just that the grandson went out to study, and the sister was still on the sickbed, which made the grandson a little worried. The grandson wants to plead with his grandmother to let his sister ......"

Su Jinxuan didn't continue to speak, and he didn't know how to continue. His sister was not sick, of course he knew that. But Mrs. Hou said that if his sister was sick, his sister would be sick. He only hoped that his sister could be truly free of illness and be able to stand back in any part of the Hou Mansion like him.

Old Madam Hou's face sank, and she didn't answer Su Jinxuan's words. For Su Zhenyi, Mrs. Hou can be described as a deep responsibility of love. The more she loves Su Zhenyi in her heart, the more she can't accept what Su Zhenyi has done.

Now in the entire Chang'an Hou Mansion, except for Su Jinxuan, the person who misses Su Zhenyi the most should be Mrs. Hou herself. But she couldn't cross the threshold in her heart, and she was unwilling to let herself personally forgive Su Zhenyi.

The eldest girl is the kindest and most thoughtful person in the Chang'an Hou Mansion, which is reflected at this time.

I only heard Su Roujia's gentle voice sounding beside her, and she said: "As the saying goes, blood is thicker than water, the second brother is affectionate and sexual, if the third sister can get better soon, she will definitely understand the friendship of the second brother." ”

Su Roujia's words just brushed away the hidden worries of Old Madam Hou. She originally didn't want to detain Su Zhenyi for the rest of her life. It's just that Mrs. Hou is not sure if Su Zhenyi can learn well from now on and correct those mistakes in the past.

Su Roujia's affectionate evaluation is just a reassuring stone for Mrs. Hou. The twins have the same heart, Su Jinxuan understands the value of flesh and blood affection, and Su Zhenyi will definitely be able to wake up.

"Speaking of which, today is my grandmother's birthday. The second brother and the third sister must have prepared a birthday gift for their grandmother. Present it to your grandmother. The fourth girl, Su Rouhui, rarely helped Su Jinxuan.

In fact, Su Rouhui looked down on the two foreign sisters and brothers very much, and her kindness was just because she didn't like to let the eldest girl take the lead alone.

Besides, isn't Su Zhenyi crazy? A madman, no matter how beautiful he is, can't steal the limelight from himself. Su Rouhui thought to herself.

Although Su Jinxuan's mind is not as complicated as Su Zhenyi, he is not stupid either. He hurriedly walked up the steps, said from his bosom that the birthday gift he had prepared was Su Zhenyi's, and presented it to Mrs. Hou.

After Mama Xu took over the birthday gift, Su Jinxuan took out a sachet from her arms and said to Su Jinyu: "Big brother, this is embroidered for you when the third sister was not sick." ”

The purple sachet was embroidered with a piece of jade mixed with silver thread, which fit Su Jinyu's name, and this gift was true.

Su Jinyu took the sachet and interceded for Su Zhenyi: "Grandmother agreed to the second brother's request." ”

What was wrong with the third sister who had not met, Su Jinyu actually didn't know very well. The matter of the battle in the inner house, the mother and daughter of the Changfang Dahuang family would never be brought to him to talk about it. It's just that the children who grew up in a big family are born with a keen sense of observation.

Seeing Su Jinxuan's request, Su Jinyu knew that it was not so simple for these three sisters to recuperate.

Since the beloved eldest grandson opened her mouth, Mrs. Hou waved her hand and said, "Okay, knowing your mistakes can be corrected, and it is very good." Jinxuan, before you go to the academy, accompany your sister to take medicine every day, so that you can feel at ease. Zhenyi sees you, maybe the illness will get better soon. ”

When Su Jinxuan heard this, she knew that her grandmother had allowed her sister to get better, so she immediately knelt down again, her eyes full of tears of gratitude.

On the other side of the feast, there was another person with tears in his eyes.

The eighth girl asked the seventh girl curiously: "Seventh sister, why are you crying?" Is it because the plum blossom cake on your plate is gone, I have it here, eighth sister. No, mine for you. ”

Su Yingying blinked her eyes twice and wanted to hold back her tears, but she couldn't help the sourness in her heart.

On the occasion of the full moon and full people, everyone was happy, only her sister, and she was forgotten in the family temple.

She's young, but she's not stupid. The third sister Su Zhenyi was released, not because of the second brother Su Jinxuan's intercession. From beginning to end, my grandmother, Mrs. Hou, still remembered the third sister in her heart.

But what about her sister? Except for her Su Yingying remembers, who else remembers?

Su Yingying looked at her father, who was eating the dishes happily, and Xiao Huang, who was holding her sideburns for Su Rouhui, and the hatred in her eyes couldn't help overflowing.

In the sky above the family temple of the Marquis of Chang'an's Mansion outside Beijing, there is also such a round bright moon.

Su Zhaoning rubbed his palms, picked up the firewood knife on the ground again, and sharpened it on the thick wood.

The five-year-old nun in the temple came out at night to look for food, and when she saw that Su Zhaoning's room was still lit by candles, she walked in.

When she saw Su Zhaoning's movements, her face couldn't hide her curiosity. She asked in a childlike voice, "Sister, what are you doing?" ”

was about the same age, and such a title made Su Zhaoning raise his head suddenly.

Seeing that it was a little nun who didn't know each other very well, Su Zhaoning's eyes showed a little disappointment. However, she quickly hid her emotions and replied to the little nun, "My sister is learning to make things out of wood. ”

The little nun said in admiration: "Sister, you are so amazing. Sister, your dad will do this, so you will? ”

Without waiting for Su Zhaoning to answer, the little nun lowered her head and looked at her stomach again, and said, "My father is a cook, I was sent to the temple too early, and I didn't learn his cooking skills." I just have his belly, and I can eat it very well. ”

"My dad's belly is the size of a bamboo basket!"

The little nun's words made the corners of Su Zhaoning's mouth smile. She put down the firewood knife in her hand, took out a piece of chestnut cake from the cloth bag on the bed, and handed it to the little nun.

The little nun stuck out her tongue and licked the chestnut cake, then took another bite. After taking a bite, the little nun couldn't stop. She ate the chestnut cake in one fell swoop.

After eating, the little nun no longer asked Su Zhaoning for it, but just squatted on the ground obediently and watched Su Zhaoning continue to cut wood.

"Sister, what do you want to do?" The little nun asked.

Su Zhaoning thought for a while and replied, "Sister actually doesn't know. If you made a gift for your dad out of wood, what would you want to do? ”

The little nun tilted her head, biting the remaining chestnut cake residue on her fingers, and thought for a while. She replied, "My dad is a cook, and he only likes things in the kitchen." If I can do it, make him a salt shaker. So he can use it every day, and when he sees the salt shaker, he thinks of me. ”

Su Zhaoning seemed a little annoyed, she said, "But my father can't cook." ”

The little nun volunteered very much: "Sister, what does your father do, what does he like." You name it, and I'll help you think about it. ”

"My father ......" Su Zhaoning looked at the little girl's serious appearance, and thought of his sister Su Yingying, and his heart became soft. She laughed and said, "My dad doesn't seem to know anything." ”

is the basic reading of officials, and Su Jingzheng, the second master of the Hou Mansion, doesn't seem to be very good at it. He can have an official errand because he was born there, and because he smashed the silver.

The little girl didn't know what Su Zhaoning was thinking, but she was thinking very seriously with the mentality that she was going to do things for the other party after eating Su Zhaoning.

"Just the chopsticks. Anyone has to use chopsticks! The little nun said, and couldn't help but bite her fingers, which were already clean, without the slightest remnant of the pastry.

Su Zhaoning couldn't help but laugh again when she saw the little girl like that. She stood up, patted the sawdust off her hand, and turned to take another piece of chestnut cake from the cloth bag on the bed.

"Don't, don't, I've already eaten a piece of my sister." The little nun hurriedly waved her hand in refusal, but her eyes looked over a little uncontrollably.

Su Zhaoning stuffed the chestnut cake into the little nun's hand and said comfortingly: "This is a reward for you." You just came up with a gift for your sister, and you deserve it. ”

The little nun was reluctant to finish eating so quickly this time, she stretched out her tongue and licked the pastry in her hand, and said with sparkling eyes: "Then sister has anything to ask me to help in the future, just say." ”

The child's mind couldn't be hidden, Su Zhaoning heard this, and knew that the little girl liked this pastry. She nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, in the future, you will often come to help my sister, and my sister will give you pastries to eat." ”

"But it's been two days. My sister has to wait for my sister's father to send it over. Every few days, her father would bring her something through the abbot. The first two times it was clothing, this time it was pastry.

Su Zhaoning thought that if she didn't send something back, I was afraid that her father's side would stop this kind of "care".

Under the moonlight, Su Zhaoning used a firewood knife to cut out two thick wooden strips. However, there is still a long way to go between that thing and chopsticks.

The childish voice of the little nun sounded next to her: "Sister, your father is so good to you!" ”

Su Zhaoning's faint voice came back: "Really? ”

"Of course!" The little nun replied in the affirmative, and she nodded her head to confirm her statement, and she said, "All fathers in the world love their children. My dad too, used to give me a lot of these pastries! If it weren't for my poor health, the fortune teller said that I could only be raised in Buddhism, and my father would be reluctant to send me over! ”

Su Zhaoning's life experience of the little nun has actually heard a little bit in the past few days. Her father was a cook in the country, and he treated her really well. But since the little nun's mother was not in good health, the little nun was sent to this nunnery. The year before, there had been a visit to the little nun. This year, there has been no news.

But it's not bad for children not to know about these things. When I grow up, I naturally see and think about some things clearly.
