Chapter 25 025
Aunt Tan came to the Guogong Mansion today. In addition to caring about the current situation of his niece and niece, there is another business matter. The Tan family is preparing to entertain relatives and friends on the twenty-seventh lunar month and post to the Guogong Mansion.
It has been ten years since the former Mrs. Guoguo passed away. After that, the Tan family held an annual banquet. Guo Boyan personally went there three times. After that, he only let a pair of children come forward, but every year Aunt Tan sends posts to Linyuntang, and this year is no exception.
Coincidentally, not long after the Tan family left, the Lin family also sent a steward to send an invitation to the mansion. Lin took the post and saw the “Twelfth Lunar Twenty-seventh” on it, and the post of the Lenovo Tan family, Dai eyebrows couldn’t help but frown. Guo Boyan treats her with respect, and the dignified father-in-law personally accompanies her back to the door and set foot in the merchant house. Based on Guo Boyan’s recent attitude towards her, he should also be willing to go to the Lin’s family for dinner, but…
The manager who sent the posts hasn’t left yet, Lin thought for a while, and asked: “Did other relatives and friends send all the posts?”
The manager shook his head and bent over and said, “Madam said, first ask you if the life here is cheap. If you run into trouble with other nobles, our house will be changed.”
Lin secretly admired her sister-in-law. Since the sister-in-law has a clear mind, she honestly said: “Stop one day in advance, the grandfather of the country will be free on the 26th.”
“Yes.” The steward got Zhun Xin’er and left happily.
Lin ordered Qiuyue to cut her family’s invitation. Looking back, she saw her daughter sitting at the mahogany low table with her head down, peeling the tangerines with her little hand earnestly, and then looking at the three beautiful and complete dishes on the table. The orange peel, Lin said helplessly: “If you eat too many oranges and get angry, you are not allowed to eat this again.”
Song Jianing raised her head and smiled at her mother: “I know.” Then she put down the peeled orange, broke half of the orange and handed it to her mother.
Lin sits next to her daughter and accompanies her to eat the oranges. She asks softly: “Just now, my mother asked your aunt to have a dinner one day in advance. Does An An understand why?”
Song Jianing nodded: “Stagger with the Tan family.” The two in-laws ran into each other. Guo Boyan went to the Tan family. His mother’s face was dull. Guo Boyan went to the Lin family. Their wives’ faces were bright. The Tan family and Guo Xiao’s brothers and sisters must be a little bit. Ideas, instead of this, it is better to stagger, everyone is satisfied.
The daughter was so savvy in her analysis, she didn’t seem so stupid as she only knew to eat. Lin was very pleased and hugged her daughter and kissed her. After receiving the reward, Song Jianing tentatively went to pick up the oranges from the plate, and the chubby hand only reached halfway, and was held down by Lin, and gave his daughter a scorn.
Song Jianing licked his lips intently, blinked, and petitioned his mother to leave. After leaving Huan Yueju, he led the two children to the Madam’s Changxinyuan, and deliberately asked them to wait outside, and then used this The way, I ate three more egg-sized tangerines in Mrs. Tai’s room. After eating, I went to Yuchunju in Tingfang and ate three more.
After a while back, Song Jianing acted like a baby while accompany her mother to eat one more meal, and finally satisfied, went back to the room and went to bed obediently.
Lin kept the lamp and sat on the warm couch outside in his clothes, waiting for Guo Boyan.
The cold wind roared outside the window, and the night was as dark as ink at the hour of shift, and Guo Boyan came back full of alcohol. Lin prepared sober tea in advance, but Guo Boyan didn’t even give her a chance to pour the tea. He directly carried the person and lost his account. The bed shook, and the intermittent sound continued until the latter half of the night.
Too tired, Lin slept for the first time in the Guogong Mansion, opened her eyes the next day, and the window was already bright, and she had long since missed the time to ask his wife for peace. Lin was anxious, and gently lifted the quilt to get up, before propping up, suddenly there was a big hand on his waist, and he pulled her back with a strong pull.
“Mother’s side…” Lin couldn’t move, reminding the man behind him in a dumb voice.
“Mother guessed it, I won’t blame you.” Guo Boyan put his arms around the tender beauty, closed his eyes and kissed Lin’s ears and neck. He had no desire, but he just wanted to hold her like this and talk casually, “I came back yesterday. It’s late, is there anything at home?”
Lin couldn’t guess if this person knew anything, and said truthfully: “The aunt of the world came over to sit for a while, then left the post, and asked the grandfather of the country to have a table on the 27th.”
Guo Boyan said lazily: “Call Ping Zhang Tingfang.”
Lin shrank in his arms and secretly guessed Guo Boyan and Mrs. Tai’s attitude towards the Tan family.
“When will your elder brother have a banquet?” Since talking about this, Guo Boyan naturally thought of the newly married wife’s natal family.
Lin whispered: “Twenty-six.”
Guo Boyan hummed, but didn’t say whether to go or not.
The couple just hugged and chatted. Suddenly there was the sound of deliberately gentle footsteps from the maid outside. Lin guessed that something was going on, so he broke off Guo Boyan’s iron arm and escaped. While dressing, he raised his voice and asked outside: “What’s the matter? ”
Qiuyue’s dumbfounded voice came in: “Madam, the fourth girl has eaten too much oranges, and there are three bubbles on the corners of her mouth.”
Lin had a headache, this girl must have eaten it again.
“Please doctor.” Guo Boyan heard the sound and went to see his daughter with Lin.
Song Jianing was looking in the mirror, and the corners of her mouth were good last night. It was just a night of effort. At this moment, there were three bubbles, two big and one small, not to mention how ugly. Song Jianing regretted it. She had known such a big fire a long time ago, and she would endure whatever she said, eating up to three tangerines a day.
Hearing that his mother and stepfather had arrived, Song Jianing immediately asked Jiu’er to take the mirror away, lowered his head faintly, and took the initiative to admit his mistake.
Lin lifted his daughter’s chin, and after reading the injury, he gave a relentless meal.
Guo Boyan just laughed.
Because Song Jianing did not go to Mrs. Tai today, news of her illness soon spread to other hospitals. Guo Xiao still remembered Song Jianing’s face that was pinched by his aunt yesterday, and asked Ashun lightly: “Really getting angry?”
Ashundao: “It’s all said, and it’s not clear how small it is.”
Guo Xiao bowed his head, turned a few pages, put it down, and went out.
Song Jianing’s side is not too busy, except for Guo Xiao, several young masters from the Guogong’s Mansion have arrived. Ting Fang is a gentle and good sister. The second girl Lan Fang is pretty good about Song Jianing, and she really cares. The third girl Yunfang doesn’t like Song Jianing. Now Song Jianing is so ugly. She is especially gloating and sits on the bedside making various jokes about Song Jianing. But it wasn’t the malicious mockery of Princess Duanhui.
The naughty energy of the brothers Guo Fu and Guo Shu is also revealed. How nice they were to Song Jianing at the beginning, like a brother, now they treat the four younger sisters equally, like them, but make fun of them. Knowing that Song Jianing was greedy for oranges, the twins deliberately peeled the oranges in front of Song Jianing to eat, and then handed them to Song Jianing to seduce her.
“Sister, take care of them!” Song Jianing was so angry that he pouted and acted like a baby at Tingfang.
Ting Fang wanted to help her younger sister, but she couldn’t control her second and third elder brothers, so she could only watch these two guys greedy her younger sister.
Tangerines are sweet and sour. Song Jianing’s saliva is straightforward, but he can’t eat it. When his throat moves, he will be laughed at by the twins.
“The son of the world is here.”
Jiu’er’s voice came in, and the six brothers and sisters in the room looked at each other. Guo Fu and Guo Shu reacted fastest. In the blink of an eye, they hid from Song Jianing’s warm couch to the desk, sitting upright, and the oranges in his hands disappeared. Trace. Ting Fang and Lan Fang snickered, Yun Fang didn’t think it was too big to see the excitement, and complained loudly to Guo Xiao: “Big Brother, 2nd and 3rd Brothers bullied the 4th Sister, they are almost crying for the 4th Sister!”
The complaint did not forget to joke Song Jianing along with it.
Song Jianing was embarrassed to let Guo Xiao watch her bubble, so embarrassingly greedy evidence, if possible, she didn’t want to show it to anyone, so she secretly hid behind Ting Fang.
Guo Xiao was dressed in a dark brocade robe, with a clear temperament that was not inferior to the cold winter wind, and two cousins who pretended to be honest with slanting eyes, Guo Xiao walked slowly to the couch, staring at the fat girl who was hiding half of his face behind Ting Fang, and asked: ” The corners of your mouth are soaked?”
Song Jianing bowed his head and nodded.
Yunfang smiled unkindly.
Guo Xiao was expressionless and asked Song Jianing to come out: “Let me see.”
Song Jianing was afraid of him from the bottom of his bones, even though he was unwilling in his heart, he obediently exposed his entire head and lowered his eyes. Guo Xiao glanced twice to confirm that there were no fingerprints on Song Jianing’s face. Then, the corner of the stepsister’s mouth, two large, one small and three blisters, would be ugly on other people’s mouths. Instead, it would be ugly when replaced by her. She is more stupid, more… intriguing.
“That.” Guo Xiao said sympathetically.
Song Jianing pouted, and when he was angry, he hid behind Tingfang.
Guo Xiao didn’t ridicule her anymore, and turned to his two cousins and said: “In the next year, my father will have to test our martial arts school. Let’s go, I will accompany you to practice.”
“Big brother, I was wrong! I don’t dare to bully An An anymore!” After a daze, Guo Fu dashed to his cousin, begging to be authentic, Guo Shu was even more cunning, taking advantage of Guo Xiao being caught by his second brother, whoosh It’s gone. Guo Fu reacted, just as his younger brother was about to run away, but Guo Xiao held it by the back of his neck, and took it away without any face.
“Second elder sister is leaving, let’s go see the eldest brother beat the second elder brother.” Yun Fang pulled Lan Fang in excitement.
The two little girls ran away holding hands. Song Jianing was bullied by the twins for a long time. Now it’s their turn to be unlucky, and she wants to see it too.
“An An, don’t go, there is a bubble in the corner of your mouth, the doctor has instructed it, it is best not to blow it.” Ting Fang dutifully discouraged.
Song Jianing immediately broke her face.
Ting Fang smiled and asked Shuang’er, Liu’er, and Jiu’er to take care of her. She went after her two younger sisters.
Song Jianing:…
The fire bubble breaks and the scab will form. It takes time to get rid of the scab. So because of these three gluttonous bubbles, Song Jianing had been keeping in the house for years ago, and he could not go anywhere. It was completely recovered on New Year’s Eve, Xiaozui’er. She became ruddy again, her cheeks were white and white, she put on a new big red dress, exquisite like the jade girl under the Guanyin seat.
Firecrackers were set off on New Year’s Eve, and Song Jianing wore a warm cloak and watched the fireworks with the three sisters of the Guo family. Guo Fu and Guo Shu raised the hollowed out firecrackers to scare his sisters. The four little girls screamed and fled. Song Jianing had a bold heart and ran the fastest, but he ran into someone as soon as he turned around.
She had a pain in her forehead, raised her head, and accidentally fell into a pair of bright eyes. The fireworks bloomed in the sky and reflected in the eyes of the young man.
Song Jianing looked at it for a moment.
Guo Xiao frowned: “How long do you want to step on?”
Song Jianing realized that she was stepping on Guo Xiao’s boots, her heart trembled, like stepping on a tiger’s tail and running away in panic.
