Fair Lady

Chapter 54

In December, it was snowy everywhere, and it was freezing cold. Shuyao was sitting in the clump of plum blossoms in the corner of the courtyard by the window. Huo Huo was teasing or provoking, but he half-closed his eyes and didn't bother to pay attention.

Mother Liu was sitting on the armchair on the other side as a female celebrity, and it was Shuwen's quilted gown.

Mother Liu is very good at sewing, and now most of the clothes of Shuyao's three brothers and sisters are made by her, which are beautiful and comfortable.Mother Liu also likes to see the three of them wearing the robes she sewed and embroidered by herself, and also likes to make the same series of clothes for the three of them, so that people can know that they are brothers and sisters at a glance.

Looking at the half-finished picture of plum blossoms reflecting snow on Shuyao's embroidery, Mother Liu was very proud. Her girl really has the talent to learn embroidery. At a young age, it took less than half a year to embroider quite well. level.Of course, what Liu's mother didn't know was that in order not to look too abrupt, Shuyao tried her best to embroider simple pictures with fewer colors.

The eldest girl and the second girl came in with two bowls of red dates and ginger tea and put them on the small round table: "Girl, mom, drink some ginger tea to keep you warm."

Shuyao put down her embroidered tent and came over: "Sitting here without moving, it's really cold! Did elder brother and Wen'er deliver it?" At any rate, she also burned high-quality silver frost charcoal here to keep warm, and the Shujie brothers were in the study Reading and practicing calligraphy, but there is no burning charcoal.

Shujie thinks that a man should not be too pampered, and now that Shuwen's health has recovered, he has already practiced martial arts with him.So Brother Shujie's house and study do not burn charcoal, and they don't have as many clothes as Shuyao and the others.

"Send it, Aunt Mei brought it in." Erniu smiled and replied, soaked the handkerchief with hot water and wrung it dry to wipe Shuyao's hands. "We have them too. Aunt Mei cooked a big pot and sent a big bowl to Aunt Li and Sister-in-law Ajuan's house."

Aunt Li lives next door, and Sister-in-law Ajuan's is right across the door. Whatever good food they cook at home, they all want to send some to share. The things are not expensive, but the rare thing is the enthusiasm. The difference between a big family and a big family.Shuyao in this generation likes this kind of "commodity, clichéd" warmth very much.

"It's so sweet!" Shuyao took a sip, with an expression of enjoyment on her little face, "Go and drink it too, it won't taste good when it's cold."

The big girl sisters agreed. In this home, they eat and drink like their masters, and they can also learn to read and embroider from Shuyao. The three little masters are all unassuming people. Mother Liu and Aunt Mei are also kind and amiable , the day was very comfortable and comfortable.The girl also allowed them to go back to Zhuangzi every half a month to visit their parents and brothers.Parents always told them to keep their duty, know how to cherish, take good care of the young master and the girl, and don't take it lightly just because the master treats them well.

Shuyao drank ginger jujube tea, just about to stand up and walk around before continuing to embroider, Er Niu hurried in: "Girl, Mama Wu who is next to my aunt is here, it seems that my aunt is not well."

Shuyao was surprised: "What's wrong with aunt? Where's Madam Wu? Does elder brother know?"

Er Niu hurriedly replied: "Aunt Mei took Mama Wu to the study to meet the young master, let me come and tell the girl."

Shuyao was in a hurry: "Let's go, let's go over and have a look." Yesterday, the brothers and sisters were still discussing that they would go to Lucheng to visit their aunt after the snow stopped for a few days, and calculated that the aunt was about to give birth.Could it be that my aunt still can't survive that catastrophe in this life?But the time has not come yet!

When she rushed to the door of the study, she heard Wu's mother crying, Shuyao was so anxious that she was about to cry, don't let anything happen!Aunt is the closest relative of the three of them in this world.As for the rest of the Xia family, in the hearts of Shuyao and the other three, they are not even as good as ordinary relatives.

"Mother Wu, what's wrong with my aunt?" Shuyao rushed into the study, ignoring the rules of "walking in small steps and talking softly".

Mother Wu hugged Shuyao: "Cousin girl, woo woo woo, my wife is not well, I want to see you three brothers and sisters for the last time."

"It's not good? Why is it not good? Auntie, has she given birth to a baby?" Shuyao burst into tears.Over there, Shujie was already discussing with Mother Liu and Aunt Mei about going to Lucheng on the road.It was still snowing, but no matter what, they had to rush to Lucheng to meet Xia Ruoyun.

Mother Wu cried even more sadly: "My wife was bumped by the young master... she was born prematurely, it was a young master... Although the young master is a bit older, but fortunately not too big, he was born after a while... At first, everyone thought it was all right, but who would have thought that my wife would suddenly bleed heavily, and it was hard to stop the bleeding... woo woo... But the doctor said that my wife bleeds too much and suffers a serious loss, and can't last ten days and a half months... woo woo... As soon as the wife wakes up... other than to see the young master... she says she wants to see you one last time."

"Eldest young master? Why did eldest young master bump into my aunt? Where are the people waiting next to me?" Shuyao said angrily, she had an intuition that there was something wrong.

The wife in front of Mr. Zhang died of dystocia. She died after struggling to give birth to a boy. The young master Zhang Xu seems to be six or seven years old this year and has a very good relationship with Xia Ruoyun.Xia Ruoyun, like Zhen Zirou, is a kind stepmother, and has always treated Brother Xu as her own since entering the door.

Shuyao remembered that Xia Ruoyun told Zhen Zirou that Brother Xu was very attached to her and listened to her very much, and said with a smile that Master Zhang was jealous.Ms. Wu also said when she visited Shuyao and the others a month ago that brother Xu talked to his wife's younger brother every day.

Mother Wu choked up and said: "My wife was walking in the small garden. The young master was praised by his master in the school, and he ran all the way as soon as he came back. He wanted to tell his wife, but he slipped and fell on the fried soybeans that spilled out of his purse. He bumped into his wife. The master was furious and locked the young master into a dark room, and the young master was also frightened, crying all the time to see his wife and the young master, saying that there was no hole in his purse."

Shuyao intuitively felt that things were not that simple, Brother Xu was only six or seven years old, and he was close to Xia Ruoyun...

Shujie quickly made a decision, Mother Liu and Erniu went to Lucheng with their three siblings, and Aunt Mei took Daniu and Xiutao to stay at home.

Because of the snow, the journey took less than three hours on weekdays, but it took nearly six hours to hurry.

When Shuyao and his party arrived at Zhang's house, it was past You hour and it was already dark.

As soon as Madam Wu entered the inner courtyard, a little servant girl rushed over and cried loudly: "Mama Wu, you are back, ma'am, ma'am is dying soon, the doctor will just shake his head and say there is no other way, and let us prepare for the funeral." , and now rely on the gin given by my uncle and wife."

Shujie held his siblings one by one: "Hurry up, take us there to see your aunt."
