On the second day of the grandfather's wedding, all the people in the third room had to go to Mrs. Tai's place for breakfast, but Guo Boyan still prepared a few cakes in the kitchen in the front yard, which he kept for the masters to use. So the grandfather of the country suddenly passed on the cakes, and the kitchen quickly brought three exquisite white porcelain plates, one on the red sandalwood table between Guo Boyan and Lin's, one on Guo Xiao, and one on the two among the girls.
Five kinds of cakes, a piece of purple potato and bean paste cake, a piece of red date cake, a piece of pea yellow, a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and a piece of lotus paste cake. The stars are like the moon, revealing the small peony pattern in the center of the plate, which makes people appetite. Pleasant again. Shortly after the pastry was out of the pot, there was a white mist of heat, and the aroma was fragrant.
Song Jianing was drooling with greed, but she could feel the gazes of the four people in the room staring at her, so she held back and lowered her head and didn't move.
Seeing that Guo Boyan didn't mean to dislike her daughter, Mrs. Lin smiled and said, "An An, eat quickly, we'll be leaving in a while."
"I'll eat a piece too." Knowing that her sister was embarrassed to do it, Tingfang was considerate and authentic, and reached out to pick up the piece of lotus paste cake.
Lin's eyes changed slightly. My daughter doesn't like to eat dry pastry very much. The eldest girl just took the lotus paste cake. Did she like it herself, or did she see her daughter's taste after getting along with her for the past two days? If it is the latter, this girl is really attentive and kind-hearted, and she accepts the sister brought by her stepmother so quickly.
When the mother was secretly familiar with the people in the Guogong Mansion, Song Jianing only had food in her eyes at this time. Since the big sister started first, she stopped pretending, stretched out her little fat hand and took a piece of purple potato and bean paste, lowered her head, and took a bite. half. It's not that she is very hungry, it's just that the pastry is too small.
The purple sweet potato was soft and sweet, and the bean paste filling inside was even sweeter and satisfying. Song Jianing was happy to eat it. He didn't want to take another piece of red date cake. He secretly glanced at the stepfather of the grandfather who was sitting diagonally across from him. The watery almond eyes, silly and silly but doing clever actions, are even more likeable.
Guo Boyan smiled: "Eat, there is still father here after eating."
Song Jianing was relieved, and shyly took the pea yellow.
Lin shi watched her daughter finish eating, and said in time, "Okay, let's pad your stomach first, don't eat too much, let's have a cup of tea and let's go."
Song Jianing didn't eat enough at all, but when her mother spoke, she obediently picked up the tea on the table, took two gulps, wiped the corners of her mouth, and looked at her mother wisely.
Lin looked at Guo Boyan again, Guo Boyan nodded and stood up first. When they went out, he walked side by side with Lin's in the front, Song Jianing and the sisters were a few steps behind, and Guo Xiao was the last in line. Lin Shi was carried to the new house after entering the door yesterday, and Guo Boyan had never seen it before. Guo Boyan introduced her as he walked.
Song Jianing couldn't help but listen to the group of people who dared to speak recklessly. He was able to concentrate. As he walked, someone poked his left shoulder. Song Jianing turned to the left subconsciously, raised her head, and accidentally bumped into a pair of eyes with no emotion. It was the first time in her life that she looked directly at Guo Xiao.
The sixteen-year-old Shizi, with his handsome eyebrows and eyes, is very similar to the 30-year-old Shizi in deep memory, but it gives people a completely different feeling. In his thirties, he is like Lengshan Cangsong. Even on the most enthusiastic night, his face is cold. Although he is cold now, he does not have the coercion that he has accumulated for a long time. He doesn't see you well enough to think of any terrible punishment.
But Song Jianing retracted his gaze for the first time and quietly leaned towards Tingfang.
However, someone poked his shoulder again.
Song Jianing turned his head in confusion, at the same time, the young man raised his hand in front of her. That hand was fair and slender, the palm was like a beautiful jade, and on top of the beautiful jade was a purple potato ball the size of a cherry blossom. Song Jianing was still hungry and swallowed uncontrollably, but she had her own backbone and didn't want to eat Guo Xiao's food.
A man who regarded her as a fox, a person who looked down on her from the bottom of his heart. In the past life, she couldn't help it. Now, Song Jianing wanted to avoid him far away, just be a brother and sister in name, and don't need to get along frequently.
Shaking his head and expressly rejecting it, Song Jianing looked ahead and went his own way.
But that hand came to stab her again, Song Jianing didn't respond, he kept poking, pushing harder and harder, until Song Jianing was in pain, but it was taken by Guo Xiao's identity and Yu Wei, and he dared not speak out. In order to avoid suffering more, Song Jianing resolutely abandoned that little bit of stubbornness, and went to take the purple potato ball in Guo Xiao's palm with a sullen face.
Humph, she just took it but didn't eat it, she just threw it away.
It was quite relieved, but just as Song Jianing's chubby hand was about to touch the beautiful purple potato ball, the young man's fair and clean palm suddenly went up. Song Jianing instinctively raised his head and saw Guo Xiao directly put the purple potato ball. In the entire mouth, half of his cheeks were bulging, and he swallowed two or three mouthfuls, and looked at her teasingly.
Song Jianing really didn't expect the young Guo Xiao to be such a grandfather!
It would be a lie to say that she was not angry. Fortunately, Song Jianing still remembered her identity, and she was not interested in Guo Xiao's food, so her angry little flames came and went quickly. Behind her, Guo Xiao frowned unexpectedly. In his father's Linyuntang, after witnessing his step-sister's gluttony, he almost let go of her defenses, but now, he bullies her so much that she's sinking. get pissed...
Recalling her black and white almond eyes that were as clear as water, Guo Xiao suddenly couldn't fathom this fat sister.
Changxinyuan arrived in a blink of an eye, Mrs. Tai sat in the middle, dressed in fancy clothes with a smile on her face, the second- and third-bedroom families were sitting on both sides, and when they saw their brother and sister-in-law coming, they both stood up at the same time. Guo Boyan, the grandfather of the country, saw him almost every day, and there was nothing to see. Several lines of sight fell on the new wife Lin Shi at the same time.
The bride should dress up for tea, but Lin's identity is embarrassing, so she only wears a bright red makeup robe, with a ruby phoenix hairpin on her head that Guo Boyan helped her insert in the morning, and a ruby tail hairpin on her ears. Wearing a pair of pearl earrings, there are no extra accessories.
The simple dress could not hide her natural beauty. Her skin was sallow and her eyebrows were picturesque. Even if she got close, she could not tell that she already had a ten-year-old daughter. Her face is clear and tender, but she is a mother after all. She has been a widow for more than four years. Last night, the dead trees were moistened by the rain in spring. This morning, they are like newly blooming begonias after the rain.
With such beauty, the men in the hall, from Guo Boyan's two brothers, down to the two-year-old fourth son Shang Ge'er, all stared blankly at Lin Shi, but Guo Erye and Sanye returned. God was fast enough to not let the wife beside him catch him, so the juniors were stunned for a while, and then they lowered their eyes in embarrassment when they heard the uncle's light cough.
Everyone has arrived, and the newlyweds will serve tea first.
Mrs. Tai's first impression of Mrs. Lin was very good. That night, Mrs. Lin was just a woman who was abducted by his son by chance. The scent of books on Mrs. Lin's body is as elegant as orchids. If it weren't for this, how could Mrs. Tai easily agree to marry a widow to her son
Privately, Mrs. Tai didn't quite believe how bad the Lin family could be.
After drinking the tea, Mrs. Tai graciously said to Mrs. Lin: "From today onwards, you will be the head mistress of our country's mansion. You must take good care of the four of them, as well as live in harmony with the concubine and be generous. Treat people. When I'm old, my only wish is for the whole family to be together and be harmonious and beautiful every day."
Lin shi said respectfully, "Daughter-in-law remember mother's teachings."
Mrs. Tai smiled and clapped her hand, and rewarded a set of red gold head and face.
After the second and third parties greeted Lin, it was Song Jianing's turn to serve tea, and today, by the way, the matter of adding her to the family tree was also done.
"Grandma drink tea." Song Jianing said sweetly, raising the tea bowl.
Mrs. Tai liked this fat girl, drank tea happily, and rewarded Song Jianing with a gold inlaid jade pendant that one of the girls from the Guo family had, and helped her to wear it around her neck. Song Jianing thanked her obediently, and then went to serve tea to the husband and wife of the second master and the third master in turn. For a while, her sweet voice echoed in the hall: "Please use the tea for the second uncle", "Please use the tea for the second aunt"...
After the graceful etiquette was over, after breakfast was over, Mrs. Tai asked the eldest son and his wife to go back to the room to rest first, and the children gathered together to get acquainted.
The weather is good today, the sun is warm, and Tingfang is the host, and invites my brothers and sisters to come to her Yuchun residence.
Without the restraint of the elders, the atmosphere was much more lively, especially the twins Guo Fu and Guo Shu of the second room, who unceremoniously seized the chairs on the left and right of Song Jianing, and urged Song Jianing to call the second brother and the third brother. Song Jianing had never met such an enthusiastic and ignorant young man of the same generation in his two lifetimes. His face was red and he shouted very obediently.
Guo Fu and Guo Shu were very happy, and there were new sisters in the family. She was soft and soft, and it was so fun to tease.
Someone pouted.
Yunfang in the third room is only one year older than Song Jianing. It turned out that she was the youngest girl in the palace and was most liked by the elders and brothers. Now the eldest brother continues to be cold-hearted, but the second brother and the third brother all went to please Song Jianing, and was suddenly left out in the cold. Yunfang was very unhappy. After being sullen for a while, she deliberately asked Song Jianing loudly, "Fourth sister, I heard that you were hungry and crying this morning?"
Song Jianing's face flushed red. She was very hungry, but she didn't cry.
Seeing that Guo Fu and Guo Shu were no longer smiling, they stared at her in shock. Song Jianing, whose shameful incident was exposed in public, really wanted to find a seam to get in, lowered his head, and clenched his hands helplessly.
Guo Xiao, who was sitting alone in front of the window, casually glanced at Song Jianing and sneered silently.
Tingfang is a good sister. Just as she was about to save her sister, Guo Fu suddenly laughed, patted Song Jianing's head, and said nonchalantly, "Who hasn't been hungry, last year I went up to the tree with your third brother to pick out birds, and my mother punished us to think about it behind closed doors. , I don't even give food, I'm so hungry that I can't even kneel."
"Yes, yes, me too." Guo Shu immediately echoed, "I'm so hungry that I can't breathe, it's like I'm dying."
Song Jianing raised her head in surprise. It turns out that she is not the only one who would be so hungry, right
The fat sister turned from sadness to joy, and brothers Guo Fu and Guo Shu looked at each other with pride.
Yun Fang was so angry that she was pulling the veil under the table, while Lan Fang, her twin sister, shook her head funny, not angry at all. The brothers are too annoying, and she wants more sisters to attract the attention of the brothers, so as not to go to her side to make trouble every day.
At the window, watching the two cousins continue to please Song Jianing, and Song Jianing was also amused by them, and Guo Xiao's eyes turned even colder.
Why didn't she smile when he gave her purple potato balls? She's not the worm in his stomach, knowing that he didn't plan to really feed her.
