Ninefold Purple

Mother is a proud person, since she has promised to let Wang Yingxue in, she will not make things difficult for Wang Yingxue about such trivial things as the time of entry.

When Dou Zhao's "illness" got better, she invited her eldest aunt and third aunt to discuss about Wang Yingxue's entry, and Dou Zhao was sent to the yard to play Baisuo with the little maids.

The four little maids are called Hemerocallis, Jasmine, Okra and Begonia respectively.Mother liked Tuo Niang's honesty, so she named her Su Xin, and she was the maid of Dou Zhao's house.

Tuo Niang likes this name very much, but the name "Tuo Niang" has a special meaning to Dou Zhao. Dou Zhao still likes to call her "Tuo Niang", so that the maids in Dou Zhao's room sometimes call her Suxin, and sometimes call her "Tuo Niang". She is a good mother, so she made a lot of jokes.Fortunately, Tuo Niang didn't care, no matter who called her name, she deserved it.

Dou Zhao is not really a two-year-old doll, so naturally he has no interest in playing games like Baisuo. [

She thought of looking for some books on describing strange powers and chaos in her grandfather's study room. It is rare in the world. She suddenly returned to her childhood, as if she was born again. There must be someone like her. She is eager to learn from those stories I found a scale and a half claw in the miscellaneous notes.

Dou Zhao asked Tuoniang to carry her to her grandfather's study.

Tuoniang immediately dropped the Baisuo in her hand, and carried her to Heshoutang.

When she walked around the lotus pond, she saw Madam Yu standing by the rockery of Taihu Lake talking to a middle-aged man in an official green silk robe.

The two were secretive and acting suspiciously.

Dou Zhao pondered for a moment, pointed to the lotus pond and said to Tuoniang, "Let's go there!"

Without doubting him, Tuoniang crossed the Jiuqu stone bridge and arrived at the rockery of Taihu Lake.

Nanny Yu and the man had disappeared.

Dou Zhao hid doubts and left the lotus pond, but bumped into his eldest aunt and third aunt head-on.

She went down to the ground and saluted the eldest aunt and third aunt respectfully.

The eldest aunt hugged Dou Zhao: "Shougu is becoming more and more popular!"

"Who says it's not." The third aunt smiled and touched Dou Zhao's head, "It's exactly the same as the seventh sibling when they were young."

As the two talked, the smiles on their faces faded.

"Ah!" The auntie sighed regretfully, "Wang Yingxue's background is there. If she gave birth to a boy, no matter how virtuous the seventh sibling is, I'm afraid she will have to stay away!"

It turned out that they all knew about Wang Yingxue's pregnancy.

Dou Zhao's eyebrows twitched slightly.

"This is fate!" The third aunt also looked a little disappointed.

Or maybe it was inappropriate for the two elders to sigh and sigh in front of their children, so the aunt forced a smile and said, "We are crying while listening to the book, worrying about the ancients. Naturally, she gradually became sensible. Look at her, isn't she handling things pretty well now?"

The third aunt nodded, and asked Tuo Niang a few words kindly. Knowing that Dou Zhao was going to see his grandfather, she told Tuo Niang to be careful about slipping and not to fall, and went out with the eldest aunt. [

Dou Zhao suddenly lost interest in going to Heshoutang.She told Tuo Niang: "Let's go back to the main room."

Tuo Niang followed her orders without saying a word, and the two quickly returned to the main courtyard.

Dou Zhao ran into the inner room.

The mother was sitting on the heated kang next to her, talking to Nanny Yu: "... Aunt Cui is Qiye's biological mother, and the dowry of 200 taels of silver is not an insult to her. As for whether the Wang family wants it or not, that is their business." , Whether to send it or not is a matter for our family. If you have money or not, marrying a daughter-in-law is good for the New Year. Although it is a concubine's room, it is still a newcomer. Entering the door on the 22nd of the twelfth lunar month just happens to celebrate the New Year. When the Spring Festival comes, it is also good for each house Go for a walk and get to know your relatives." After speaking, the mother took a sip of tea from the teacup and continued, "The new house, let's set it up in Qixia Courtyard..."

"Grandma Seven!" Yu Yu was startled, and before her mother finished speaking, she lost her voice, "How can this be done! Qixia Courtyard is just behind Qiye's study..."

Mother made a stop gesture, and said: "They can get mixed up with each other in Beizhili, so can they be innocent under my nose?"

Nanny Yu was at a loss for words.

"Besides, I'm too lazy to look at their concubine-loving looks." The mother murmured, "I let Wang Yingxue go, and I also let go of myself."

Dou Zhao almost applauded for his mother.

exactly.

No matter how big the world is, it cannot be bigger than yourself.

If you don't love yourself anymore, why should others love you?

Since you don't want to see Wang Yingxue, why bother to pretend to be virtuous!

She didn't understand this truth until she was 30 years old.

Dou Zhao whispered to Tuo Niang: "You will follow Mother Yu later to see where she has gone? Who has she met?"

Tuo Niang nodded.

Dou Zhao threw himself into his mother's arms happily: "Mother, the wintersweet blooms in the backyard, let's go to enjoy the plum blossoms."

The mother laughed, and kissed Dou Zhao's little face: "Mother has something to do, let Mother Tuo accompany you to play!"

Dou Zhao just wants to be with his mother.

My mother didn't think she was troublesome either, and teased her while taking care of the chores at home.

The father suddenly came over, ignoring the housewives who were serving, and took out a red gold hairpin inlaid with jasper from his bosom as if offering a treasure.

"Does it look good?" He looked at his mother flatteringly, "I went to Zhending Mansion specially to have someone beat me."

The body of the hairpin is golden, and the head of the hairpin is green and in the shape of a drop of water, like a teardrop on the cheek of a beauty.

"It's beautiful!" The mother smiled and fiddled with the jade hairpin for a long time, and told Madam Yu to put it away, "I will make it a dowry for Aunt Shou later."

The father said awkwardly: "This is for you... Shougu's, I will buy it for her later."

The mother pursed her lips and smiled: "It's your wish to buy her something in the future, this is my wish."

"What's mine isn't yours yet." Father muttered in a low voice, hesitating to speak.

The mother smiled and said, "Are you here to ask about Wang Yingxue's entry? I have already given orders just now..." Then she told her father again what she had said to Nanny Yu.

Father said "oh", not very interested, and seemed to have a lot to say and didn't know what to say.

There was silence for a while.

After a while, my father stood up uncomfortably, and murmured: "Since you have something to do, I'll go first."

Mother smiled and stood up: "Then I won't give it away." Then she yelled with a smile, "Send Qi Ye!" She sat down and lowered her head to think.

Father stood there for a while, seeing that mother had not raised her head, her eyes dimmed, and she walked out with her head down.

Nanny Yu called out "Grandma Seven".

The corner of the mother's eyes did not move, and she said: "Seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming, I'm afraid it will be difficult to hire people. You have to spend more time on the furnishings of the new house, and help urge the stewards of the outer courtyard."

"Yes!" Nanny Yu reluctantly withdrew.

The mother lost her mind and hugged Dou Zhao with a smile: "Let's go, let's go to admire the plum blossoms."

Dou Zhao smiled cheerfully.

Time is the best medicine, no matter how painful the wound is, it will slowly heal with time.

Mother, I will always be with you.

Solve your loneliness, soothe your wounds.

Looking at his mother's jade-like face, Dou Zhao secretly swears in his heart, holding his mother's hand with a smile, and bouncing to the backyard.

※※※※※

In the evening, Tuo Niang told Dou Zhao: "Nurse Yu didn't go anywhere, all she saw was the steward and the steward's wife of the mansion."

Who is that man?

Dou Zhao bit his finger and thought.

As a result, early the next morning, her aunt brought her eldest cousin, Zhao Biru, to give the Dou family a New Year gift.

"It's freezing cold," the mother hastily ushered my aunt and eldest cousin into the inner room, helped my aunt to sit on the kang, took the hot tea from the servant girl's hand, and respectfully handed it to my aunt, "let the steward run away That's it, why did you come in person!"

My aunt was in her early thirties, wearing a royal blue jacket with sleeves covered in gold, and a pair of red gold jade-encrusted hairpins. She was of medium height, slightly plump, with fair skin. She smiled with crooked eyebrows and was very kind. .

She clapped her hands towards Dou Zhao who was in Tuo Niang's arms: "Come, sit here with auntie."

Mother carried Dou Zhao onto the kang.

Zhao Biru bent her knees and blessed her mother.

The mother hugged Zhao Biru: "The elder sister has grown a little taller, and she is almost catching up with me."

The aunt said angrily: "What's the use of being tall but not heart!"

Zhao Biru smiled shyly.

At this time, Zhao Biru was only 11 years old, with long hands and legs, and skin that was as snowy as snow, and she could already vaguely see the graceful appearance of an adult.

Mother took her to the kang, and everyone gathered around the kang table, eating snacks and talking.

"...Your eldest brother has failed in the spring twice in a row. This time he tried his best to be nominated for the gold list, and he didn't even bother me to talk to him." The aunt laughed, "I was talking at home, so I brought Bi Ru to you." Come here to drop by." Then he said, "How are you doing these days?"

Mother whitewashed the peace: "It's the same as before. I'm so busy every day, I don't know what I'm busy with."

The aunt smiled without saying a word, took a sip of tea, and said to Zhao Biru: "Since you're here, let's go play with your cousin!"

Zhao Biru answered "yes" carefully, and obediently got off the kang.

Mother was slightly taken aback.

The aunt said: "I have something to tell you." There was a bit of solemnity on her face.

The mother answered "Yes", and the water was already visible in her eyes.

Dou Zhao thought of Nanny Yu by the lotus pond and the man in the official green silk robe.

After leaving the inner room, she shook off Zhao Biru's hand and ran towards the door.

Outside the gate, the man in the official green Lu silk robe was talking to a steward of the Dou family. Behind him was a flatbed carriage, which was full of things, and the servants were constantly moving the things on the carriage. Move home.

It turned out that that person was the steward of the Zhao family.

Dou Zhao ran back to the second gate, and met Zhao Biru who was sweating profusely after her.

"You, what are you going to do?" She clutched her stomach and panted heavily, "How can you run faster than a rabbit?"

Dou Zhao thought of meeting her for the first time.

She held the teacup gracefully, and looked at her with a gentle yet dignified smile: "After my aunt passed away, my father and mother originally wanted to bring you home to be our sister's companion, but you didn't want to, when Seeing that the people from the Dou family bit my mother without saying a word, and yelled 'I won't go to your house', my mother had no choice but to come back angrily..."

At that time, she felt that Zhao Biru's words were like a round fan in autumn, indescribably inappropriate and inappropriate.

But now...she was a little uncertain.
