Chapter 143 The Uninvited Guest

Different from the Marquis of Wuding's mansion who still live together, Su's mansion has already divided part of the family.Right now, the only people living with Su Ping and his wife are the uncle of the Su family and the second master of the Su family. The fourth master and the third master of the concubine have already bought another house.But there are quite a few people living in the scholar's mansion.

This is not only because Su Ping's widowed third sibling and his two nephews still live with him in the scholar's mansion, but also because the Su family is quite prosperous. In the family of the uncle of the Su family alone, there are two boys, two girls and four children. .As for Second Master Su's family, there were three men and two women.

Therefore, although the Su manor is very large, it still doesn't look spacious when there are too many people. The small courtyard where Shangguan Yuan and Su Qingyun live is even smaller than the small courtyard of her boudoir where she lived in her mother's house, and it is not as good as Shangguan Jing. The remote courtyard in Huaiyang Prince's Mansion is spacious.

However, although the place where they lived was a bit crowded, Shangguanjing found that the second sister was working hard to take care of her little home as soon as she entered the door.The flowers, plants and trees in the yard are neatly trimmed, and rattan tables and chairs are placed under the porch. If the weather is fine, the young couple can even set up a tea stove outside to drink tea and chat.

This is a half-divided courtyard, only the West Wing and not the East Wing, and the West Wing was sorted out by Shangguan Yuan, and it was used as an inner study, neat and beautiful.

"It's not as good as home here. It's smaller." Shangguanyuan led Shangguanjing into the room, pushed her into a chair and sat down: "But small has its advantages, and it's easy to take care of. The only inconvenience is that the yard is But I can’t let go of my dowry, so I can only ask my aunt to ask for a storeroom to store it in. If I want to find things on weekdays, I have to go to the storeroom in the yard, which is a bit troublesome.”

"Although it's only half of the yard," Shangguanjing looked around, shaking her head, "but the second sister is really neatly organized. Who lives in the other half of the yard separated? Would it be inconvenient to be so close?"

"It's okay." Shangguan Yuan smiled and said, "The other half of the yard is smaller than this one. Right now, my cousin's younger sister lives here. She's already engaged and will get married after the Chinese New Year. Grandma said, wait until she gets married." If we find someone, we will break through the courtyard wall, and my place will be more spacious, so it will be convenient for you to come as a guest."

"I don't know when I can come next time." Shangguan Jing shook his head: "I don't think I have a chance to come here often."

"Didn't my aunt start walking around with her natal family?" Shangguan Yuan smiled and said, "As long as you start walking around, it's only natural for you to come."

Shangguan Jing was stunned for a moment before realizing that the aunt Shangguan Yuan was referring to was Princess Su, and she was not used to this title.

"I don't think she will come back often." Shangguanjing made a helpless expression: "Besides, she may not bring us with her when she comes back. You saw it today. She usually looks indifferent, even if Now that I have contacts with my natal family, I don’t think I will move around too often.”

"Then you can come by yourself." Shangguan Yuan replied: "As long as you are a serious relative, there is nothing wrong with you coming to visit."

"Second sister saw it today too," Shangguan Jing sighed: "After all, our elder sister is the fifth prince's concubine. If I come here often, not to mention the second prince and Su Wenyue will think too much, I am afraid that our elder sister will feel uncomfortable. Comfortable."

"That's right." Shangguan Yuan sighed slightly, then cheered up and smiled again: "It's okay. Wait a few more days, after the elders allow me to go out to visit guests alone, I will ask your second brother-in-law to accompany me to see you."

"When that day comes, you should find more opportunities to go back to your mother's house!" Shangguan said with a smile, "Second Aunt misses you all the time! Hey, by the way, I brought a lot of gifts, so hurry up and find some people to follow Chen. Nanny and Yingxia are going to move."

"What are you in a hurry for?" Shangguan Yuan smiled and said, "I'll tell someone to go, don't worry about it, I'll let someone make a snack and I've prepared sesame paste for you! You can also try the sesame paste from sister's house , how is it better than those made by Mother Chen herself?"

"Okay!" Shangguanjing nodded happily: "Second Sister's dim sum must be delicious."

The maids came in quickly and set up a table full of desserts. Shangguan Jing took a look and knew that these were carefully prepared by Shangguan Yuan.

"Second sister, why bother!" She said, "You don't have a small kitchen here, so there's no need to go to the big kitchen and ask people to make so many dim sums for me."

"It's rare for you to come here once!" Shangguan Yuan replied with a smile: "Besides, it's not that they were asked to do things for nothing, and they were rewarded, so who would say anything more?"

"But if the elders know about it," Shangguan Jing still looked a little worried: "Will you say you are causing trouble? We are going to stay here for a long time today, and the Su family will definitely hold a banquet. Actually, I might have a chance It’s a pleasure to talk with Second Sister, there’s no need to bother me so much.”

"Began to worry about it again." Shangguanyuan smiled and poked Shangguanjing's forehead: "It's just once in a while, the elders are so harsh. I know you don't want to cause trouble for me, but my sister finally came, I think How about entertaining you well! Even your second brother-in-law said I did the right thing!"

"That's great!" Shangguan laughed quietly. She quickly picked up the chopsticks and stuffed a piece of soft cake into her mouth. While chewing, she smiled at Shangguan Yuan: "Then I won't be polite! It's delicious!"

"You don't have to worry about others." Shangguan Yuan looked at Shangguan Jing with a bulging mouth with a smile on her eyes, "No one will say anything when I entertain you. It's not just me who is looking forward to your coming. Look..."

As Shangguan Yuan spoke, she raised her handkerchief towards Shangguan Jing.A small purple forget-me-not flower on the handkerchief is the same style as the sapphire beads on Shangguan Yuan's head, and it fits Shangguan Yuan's aqua blue dress today, just right.

That was the makeup ceremony carefully prepared by Shangguan Jing for Shangguan Yuan.

"The makeup gift you gave me is so practical," Shangguan Yuan said with a smile, "I use it every day. Not only are my sisters in my family envious, even the elders have asked me who made it, so thoughtful." A few days ago, even the cousin of the uncle’s family noticed it and asked about it! You made it up to me, so the sisters and elders in the family are very curious about you. They can’t tell if you are coming this time. Looking forward to it more than I do!"

"There's no such exaggeration, I..." Shangguan Jing hadn't finished speaking when there was a sudden noise outside.The two sisters looked out together and heard someone talking and laughing in the yard, and then a clear male voice said loudly: "Lady, I'm back. My brother-in-law is also here."

"Eh?" Shangguan Yuan stood up strangely, and went to open the door in person: "Did the husband bring Jing Heng over? I thought..."

She opened the door and saw the large group of people behind Su Qingyun outside the door, and the remaining half of the sentence choked in her throat...

　---Here is the dividing line of the University Scholars House--
　　The Su family didn't completely separate, so they didn't live comfortably.The yard where Shangguan Yuan and his wife lived must have something to do with their status in the family.

　　For example, if the young master is married, he will definitely not live in half the yard.

　　It's actually not uncommon for such a big family to live together. It's not like on TV. Every young master and lady in the family lives in an independent big courtyard.
