Linglong

Chapter 4

Jiande's 15 winter was much colder than previous years. After winter, it often snowed heavily.

"It's snowing, that's great." Linglong walked to the window, looking at the melodious snowflakes in the sky, with a smile on her lips.

It's snowing, the land is white, and the whole world is covered in silver, which is extraordinarily enchanting.

"Miss, are you cold?" The wet nurse Li Shi hurriedly followed, and carefully put a cloak in a white fox with a brocade and satin fabric in the color of a fragrant concubine on her body.

"Not cold." Linglong shook her head.

Nurse You felt worried, shook her little hand, and then smiled, "It's warm, so it's really not cold. Even so, let's wear this cloak. The girl is weak, and she has been ill these days. Don't be careless."

Linglong is easy-going, although she felt that it was unnecessary to wear so many clothes in the house, seeing that the nanny was very persistent, she smiled peacefully, "Okay, I'll just wear it."

The nurse was very happy, and praised cheerfully, "The girl has grown up and knows how to cherish herself!" She praised, but she was afraid that she would be tired from standing, so she ordered the little girl to bring a squirrel chair with a small lacquer chair as a mattress. , helping Linglong sit down steadily.

"You still treat me like a sick child." Linglong was being served tenderly and stubbornly by the wet nurse, unable to laugh or laugh.

It has been ten years since she came to this world. She suddenly became a baby and a girl from an adult, and Linglong was not used to it. It took a long time before she slowly accepted the reality.

The reason why Linglong came here is that she deserves it.For a period of time, she hugged a computer and surfed the Internet all day long, and the sky was dark and dark, and on a quiet night, her eyes suddenly went dark, and she didn't know what was going on.By the time I woke up, I had already reached this time and space.

Although there are various discomforts, fortunately, her father, Uncle Yu, and mother Qiao Shi love her very much, and her two elder brothers, Yu Chang and Yu Yan, are also very pampered and pampered by her. Linglong's little life is very comfortable.

She has always paid attention to exercising, but this winter is too cold, and when the first snow fell, she had a fever.

It is common for children to have a fever, but she has been strong since she was young, and she seldom gets sick. This fever shocked Uncle Yu and Mrs. Qiao.Because Linglong was too young to be supplemented with medicine, she searched for food supplements and ordered the kitchen to make a clean and light diet and bring them to her. Seeing that Linglong was bedridden, she was worried that her daughter would be bored, so she spent a lot of money to buy western glass to frame the window. so that my daughter can lie on the bed and watch the scenery.Linglong enjoys the meticulous care of her parents, so she is not depressed after falling ill.

But there is one thing, Mrs. Qiao herself is a sick beauty who often eats vegetarian food. With Linglong's illness, Mrs. Qiao worried that Linglong's spleen and stomach would not be able to be cured by other restraints, so she only let her drink porridge.

Linglong frowned.

The porridge is indeed very fragrant, but if you drink porridge today, you will drink porridge tomorrow. How about you try it after a long time?Will cry.

Linglong got up and paced around the room.

She is the daughter of the Yu family, and the boudoir was personally arranged by Mrs. Qiao, which is rich and elegant.Hanging column style bed, carved four-post couch, dressing table with lily pattern, top vertical cabinet, double-opening bed cabinet, painted wardrobe, painted hangers, carved screen, all high-quality mahogany, simple and elegant style, swing Well-placed.On Duobao Pavilion, there are not only plum vases and flower cups that are common in boudoirs, but also several ornaments carved from top-quality Hetian jade, which are smooth, delicate, and crystal clear.There is even a small western clock, the clock base is made of golden nanmu, with complicated hollow carvings, one can tell at a glance that this object is very particular.

Linglong's eyes glanced over the clock inadvertently, and she couldn't help frowning.Lunch time is coming soon, if there are all kinds of porridge and light side dishes in front of you...

No, I want to eat meat.

Linglong made up her mind, turned her head with a smile, and looked at the nurse, "Nurse, how many winter clothes do I have? Is there anything better than this one?" The nurse hurried over and said in a loud voice: "Yes, Yes, there are many! There is also a cloak of red feather yarn, which is also in the white fox. The red feather yarn is a famous product in the south of the Yangtze River, and the color is very bright. Girls have green fox, black fox, and sable cloaks, as well as purple lamb and pearl lamb. Jacket, ermine, squirrel leather skirt..."

Linglong interrupted her with a smile, "Which one is the warmest?"

The nurse had a look of color on her face, "Of course it's a sable cape. Girl, when it comes to fur, sable is the best and most valuable. If you put it in an ordinary family, like the girl's growing body age, it means that the family is good. There are very few who are willing to use sables to make clothes. But in our family, the uncle and the eldest wife love the girl the most, and they are busy making new clothes for the girl before winter, even sables!"

The nurse took out a tapestry sable cloak printed with lotus root and lotus root, landscape, flower and bird patterns, and held it in front of Linglong as if offering a treasure.

This cloak is rare both in fabric and fur, not to mention a little girl like Linglong, even a wife who wears it will cherish it.

Linglong glanced at it with a smile, "Is it really warm?"

The nurse laughed happily, "That's natural. Even in heavy snow, I won't feel cold!"

Linglong rolled her eyes, "Is it really not cold even in heavy snow? I don't believe it."

Seeing that Linglong still had an innocent face, the nurse looked at her mischievously with her big black eyes, and then she understood Linglong's intentions, and she couldn't help laughing, "Does Miss Ganqing want to go out for a walk? She didn't say it clearly, but Walked around in circles with me for half a day."

Linglong also smiled, "I don't just want to go out for a walk, I also want to go find my daddy! Think about it, nurse, daddy won't go out in this snowy day, if I go to talk to daddy, wouldn't it be happy Very? In the afternoon, I will take daddy back to the inner house to have dinner with mother, and daddy is not allowed to leave after dinner, and I want to listen to him talk about ancient times."

After Linglong said these words, the wet nurse was very tempted.

Old Master Yu has always been obsessed with the study of textual research, and in recent years has become more and more addicted to the point where he forgot to sleep and eat, and lives in the study all year round.Uncle Yu and Second Master Yu had to serve their father beside them. Gradually, they did not go back to the inner house every day, and lived in the study more and more.The men of the Yu family have always been self-proclaimed noble, even if they live in the study room, they are a clean person, not like some frivolous people, there will be beautiful maidservants in the study room.But in this way, Mrs. Qiao will inevitably stay alone in the vacant room, how deserted.The nurse was originally a girl from Qiao's natal family as a dowry, and she was loyal to Qiao. Hearing Linglong's words, thinking that my young lady would have her husband, son-in-law and beloved daughter by her side on this midwinter night, her heart skipped a beat.

Seeing that the nanny still had a look of hesitation on her face, Linglong asked with a smile, "It's not that my parents don't want me to go out, right?"

Of course, Uncle Yu and Mrs. Qiao didn't want to lock Linglong in the house, they just worried that she was still weak and would catch cold easily, so they didn't allow her to go out frequently.

The nurse looked at the sable cloak in her hand, looked at Linglong's expectant eyes, and finally nodded.

"Nurse is so kind." Linglong smiled as she achieved her goal.

"Young lady failed in her studies." The nanny scolded, dressed up Linglong, and sent her out.

The moccasin boots creaked and creaked when they stepped on the fresh snow, and the sound was very pleasant.Linglong stomped on a few times, breathing in the fresh air, feeling happy.

Let's go to the place where there is meat!

Uncle Yu's lunch must be a combination of meat and vegetables, with everything.It should be okay for a father and daughter to have a meal together, right?

Linglong giggled.

On the big kang facing the window was a kang table. On both sides of the kang table, Mr. Yu and Mr. Yu sat facing each other, drinking and gossiping.

Both of these brothers are good-looking, tall and handsome.However, Uncle Yu is more gentle and introverted, while Second Master Yu is much more lively. He excitedly talked about interesting things in his youth, his eyebrows were beaming with joy, and when he was happy, he raised his glass and drank it down, sighing: " At that time, Zhu Yan was two years old—”

The door was pushed open, and a small head wearing a snow cap poked in, grinning at the two people on the kang, "At that time, Zhu Yan was two years old... Eleventh Lang and Seventeenth Lang..."

Her smile was full of flattery, and her tone was a little hesitant, obviously she didn't know whether she should say this, or whether she could say it.However, she was so courageous that she still said it out.

Uncle Yu looked at Linglong who had only poked a small head in, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he didn't speak, but Second Master Yu slapped his legs and laughed loudly, "Little Linglong is here? Come in quickly!" Second Master Yu greeted Linglong to sit on the kang Then, with a smile on his face, "Do you still remember? You were so fun when you were young! How old were you? You were a small person who was not as tall as the table. You were very naughty. You hid behind your uncle and whispered secretly, 'Ten Qilang''Seventeen Lang'... Uncle turned his head abruptly, only to see that the smile on your little face suddenly disappeared, and you looked at uncle vigilantly, and slowly leaned over..."

Linglong said awkwardly, "Well, I'm probably thinking, if uncle wants to hit me, I'll turn around and run away..."

Erye Yu fell down laughing.

Uncle Yu also smiled.

Uncle Yu said with a smile, "Long'er has been in the house for a while. You can take off the cloak." Second Master Yu said, "What brother said is right." He took off the cloak for Linglong, handed it to Tong'er, and ordered him to hang it up.

Uncle Yu ordered Tong'er to build another brazier, Tong'er agreed, and after a while, brought a brazier in.Second Master Yu was puzzled, "What's the point of adding more braziers? You can't die of heat." Uncle Yu smiled, "You are not afraid of the cold, but my daughter is." Second Master Yu suddenly said, "Yes, Xiao Linglong is sick That's good, it won't work if it's frozen."

It was warm in the room.

Linglong felt warm in her heart.

Second Master Yu asked with a smile, "Little Linglong, it's snowing so much, why did you come here suddenly?" Linglong smiled, "I was sitting in my room to enjoy the snow, but after counting my fingers, I found out that Daddy and Uncle needs a wine pourer, so he came over."

"Pinch your fingers and count." Uncle Yu and Second Master Yu were all brilliant.

Linglong picked up the jug and poured wine for Uncle Yu and Second Master Yu respectively. After pouring, she sniffed comfortably, closed her eyes and sighed, "It smells so good!"

Second Master Yu stretched out his thumb and praised, "Xiao Linglong really knows the goods. This is a 30-year-old wine with a strong aroma!" Uncle Yu smiled and said, "This wine is very strong. Children are not allowed to drink it. Long Er Don't make up your mind." Linglong was a little embarrassed, and muttered in a low voice, "I didn't want to drink."

I don't really want to drink, I want to eat meat.

Linglong looked at the appetizers on the kang table, and saw that there were beef, crystal meat, etc., which were not her usual favorites, and also smelled of alcohol, so the taste should be even worse.

"I traveled through half of Yu's family and came here after a long journey just to eat meat." Linglong looked at the appetizers on the table, feeling bored.

Uncle Yu smiled and glanced at Linglong, "Long'er liked to play with water when she was a child. Your sister-in-law is not used to children, so she floated a white jade cup in the water basin for her to play with. She was so happy, clapped her little hands and laughed, it's fun What a joy."

Erye Yu couldn't help but let out a "huh".

Ordinary white jade cups naturally cannot float in the water basin, only finely crafted jade cups that are as thin as paper can float on the water.To carve a jade cup as thin as paper requires a skilled craftsman to spend countless efforts to achieve it, and the degree of preciousness can be imagined.Qiao's dowry is rich, it is not unusual to have such a treasure, but it is really unexpected to be able to use it for Linglong to play with.After all, Linglong was still too young at that time, so she couldn't tell whether the objects were precious or not.

"Mother loves me." Linglong smiled gratefully.

She really loves her daughter very much, and uses such a precious and rare thing as a toy for her daughter.But, forgive me for being bold, I want to discuss with my parents, can the jade cup be replaced with delicious meat?
Food is the most important thing for the people.
