Exquisite ingenuity

Chapter 7

Zhao Jinyi smiled and took Zhao Jinhua's hand: "It's windy outside, don't let this naughty wind mess up my sister's bun."

The spring breeze outside is warm, how can it mess up her bun?
Zhao Jinhua still couldn't figure it out, but Zhao Jinyi had already brought him into the house.

Zhao Jinyun was leaning against the window, reading with a book in his hand, when he saw the two of them coming in, he joked: "Second sister, don't be impatient, be careful to scare fourth sister."

Zhao Jinhua blushed, and did not dare to argue, so he pursed his lips and smiled.

Zhao Jinyi saw that Mei Ran led the maids to guard the door, and there were only three sisters left in the room, so he took Zhao Jinhua to sit down unhurriedly: "Second sister, you can sit down."

Zhao Jinhua's heart was pounding.

A Niang has been choosing a son-in-law for her for two years, but she is still not convinced, and she is also anxious.She is interested in those gentlemen who came here today.But... the fourth sister still has to let her hold her eyes.The eldest sister went back to her natal family the other day, and although she was pregnant, she was much thinner.Although my brother-in-law didn't dare to do anything to my elder sister since that time, but from time to time he would look sullen, and my elder sister was always terrified, how could I live in peace?

She doesn't want to live her whole life in fear like her big sister.Even if the future husband's family court is smaller, she is also willing.

Zhao Jinyun also leaned over, and the three sisters were sitting together, looking at each other, smiling with their mouths pursed.

Zhao Jinyi lowered his voice, and described in detail the reaction of the gentlemen today when they saw the snake.

When Zhao Jinhua heard that Shi Jiasanlang jumped away with agility, his face became a little ugly.

How could the eloquent Shijia Saburo she met in the bookstore be so timid?However, when he saw a snake, he didn't scream like his second brother, but just jumped away, which is also reasonable...

Zhao Jinyi observed Zhao Jinhua's expression, but he didn't show it, just smiled and said: "Just now my aunt and aunt called me over, but I pushed the matter to Qiu Wei. Don't worry, sisters, you still have to stay at home." It's been a while."

Zhao Jinyun said with a smile: "Could it be that the fourth sister wants the mothers to list their sons-in-law?"

Sure enough, it was Zhu's daughter, and they all had the same idea.

Zhao Jinhua thought again, Shi Sanlang's homework is still good, if Qiu Wei ends up, he can still get some fame or something.But he said before that the current imperial court is fatuous, so he is not willing to work with those villains and pollute his heart.

Zhao Jinyi smiled and said: "Although our Zhao family is open-minded, the standard of choosing a son-in-law must not be lowered. In this important marriage, after all, we must pay attention to the right family. The husbands have fame and fame, so they will naturally be able to enter the Zhao family. eyes."

Zhao Jinyun squinted at her: "Look, our fourth sister is young, but when she speaks, she is old-fashioned, and she is very similar to the second uncle."

Zhao Jinyi's father, Zhao Chengde, is a cautious old scholar.

Speaking of his father, Zhao Jinyi smiled sweetly: "No, daughter, after all, she is more like father."

Although Zhao Chengde is an old pedant, he doesn't take concubines, treats his wives with respect and love, and is ten times better than their father.

Zhao Jinyun felt sorry for him: "If I can find a gentleman like Second Uncle, I will have no regrets in this life."

But Zhao Jinhua hurriedly said: "I don't want it, the second uncle does things in a strict manner, it's too bluffing." She likes something that is smarter.

Zhao Jinyi smiled, put the hands of the two sisters together, and said: "But the Youjia Dalang who came here today is quite similar to my father. Why don't I send Changqing to ask more carefully? "

Zhao Jinyun's face suddenly turned red: "Didn't you just say that you will wait until after Qiu Wei..."

Zhao Jinyi smiled slyly: "No, you have to grasp it with both hands, so that you can't miss anything..." Their Zhao family is choosing a son-in-law, but other families are also choosing.There are forty or fifty households living in this Kangle Square. Which family does not have three or two daughters of the right age?

Excluding those who want to climb up and those who sell their daughters for glory, there are better people competing with them.

It's almost time for dinner to see off Zhao Jinhua and Zhao Jinyun.

With no one else present, Zhao Jinyi comfortably slid himself into the big soft pillow.

Only her two personal maids can save it. She has been planning this matter since the night in Bao'an Temple.

It was even more difficult for her, a little girl in a deep boudoir, to plan this matter.

But who made the man who my aunt fell in love with every time, feel bad.

Last time Shen Pingle was fine, but this time the Zheng family boss had bad luck, and was picked up by Changqing to flirt with his cousin who lives in his home.It's a pity that the cousin lost her father and mother since she was a child, and she didn't have a heavy dowry. Zheng Dalang's mother would not let her son marry such a helpless girl.What a pity, I heard that the cousin is as beautiful as a flower.Alas, but in today's world, many people choose their daughter-in-law, and beauty has always been ranked behind family background and dowry.

She has been friends with her sisters since she was a child, and she will never watch her sisters jump into such a pit of fire again.

It's a pity that the eldest sister is unwilling to reconcile.

The Shen family was also unwilling to write and leave the book.The old lady of the Shen family made a special trip to Zhao's house and told her aunt that they, the Shen family, only write divorce papers.

And the eldest aunt would never let her eldest daughter bear the reputation of being divorced.

Zhao Jinyi closed his eyes and thought, it's a pity that the eldest sister, such a gentle person, has to spend the rest of her life like that.If it's her, I'm afraid it's...

Just thinking about it, Mei Ran said softly: "Fourth Miss, dinner is brought."

Dinner is served on the couch.Meiran puts the dishes, and Yaqing puts the bowls and chopsticks.

Mei Ran just lifted the lid, and Zhao Jinyi smelled a very fragrant chicken soup.

She raised her eyebrows. The aunt really agreed to the aunt and made her old hen soup?

Mei Ran smiled and said: "Miss Si, this is the chicken soup that the eldest wife specially ordered the kitchen to cook for you."

Zhao Jinyi looked at the clear stewed chicken soup, and said bluntly, "Bring the spoon."

Ya Qing hurriedly handed the silver spoon to Zhao Jinyi.

Zhao Jinyi sipped the chicken soup, feeling very satisfied.After eating half of it, he thought of his aunt: "My aunt is back?"

Her suave and suave uncle, who had been traveling for several years, came back suddenly. A Niang got the news and wanted to take her back, but it ran into today's garden party.

Anyway, uncles are back, and it's not too late.

She planned to recharge her energy, and then go back to her grandfather's house with A Niang tomorrow to exploit her uncle well.

Mei Ran shook her head: "But I didn't see Wuyi to get food, I guess I haven't come back yet."

Zhao Jinyi's eyes lit up: "Could it be that uncle brought back some strange and delicious stuff, so Auntie stayed at grandparents' house for dinner?"

Mei Ran and Ya Qing couldn't help but find it funny.

Only at this time, Miss Si, who was thinking about food, acted like a fourteen-year-old girl.

If not, the fourth young lady in the usual days is so old-fashioned that it seems that there is an old-fashioned woman hidden inside.

Zhao's dinner is very simple, a bowl of shallow rice, freshly dug bamboo shoots stir-fried, and a plate of tofu.

It's not that the Zhao family can't afford meat, but the rules set by their grandmother.Grandma believes that this kind of food can keep the girls slim and prevent them from becoming obese.

Zhao Jinyi thought that what the grandmother said was very reasonable, but the old hen soup that the aunt asked the kitchen to bring was really delicious.

I've been too tired recently, so I really want to reward myself.It's just a meal of chicken soup, and I definitely won't turn my waist into a bucket.

After Zhao Jinyi had eaten, he paced around the small yard to digest.

The sky has completely darkened.

Mei Ran and Ya Qing packed up their belongings, and were about to order the rough envoy to bring hot water to bathe the fourth girl, when they suddenly heard a loud noise not far away, as if something huge fell down, scaring the two of them together Jump.
