"I would like to advise my aunt, don't let your good son hold you back when all the agencies are exhausted!"
Lian Suisui snorted disdainfully. Taking advantage of the fact that she gave birth to Lian Jialiang and Lian Fangyu's love for her, Mrs. Zhang usually acted arrogantly in front of her servants. Even Fangyu's other concubines and concubine children also No one ever dared to contradict her.
"I am half your mother, how dare you do this to me?"
Lian Suisui seemed to have heard some joke.
"I have never heard of a concubine who dares to claim to be half the mother of my legitimate child. Who do you think you are? You are not even the mother of my eldest brother, and you still want to ride on my head? Don't say that my father hasn't done this yet. Even if you are my father's equal wife now, you are still a concubine in front of my mother. If you dare to be my mother, who will give you the face?"
Zhang was stabbed in a painful spot, and her pale face was hidden in the night.
Next to his ears was Lian Suisui's soft mocking voice.
"As long as the Qin family is still there, it is impossible for my father to help you become an equal wife, so you can just dream!"
Lian Suisui left the stunned Zhang and returned to her yard.
"Xiao Tao, go and boil some mugwort water, and then use moxa sticks to fumigate the house to remove bad luck."
The maids in Qinxinyuan were busy until midnight, wiping the floor with mugwort water and fumigating the courtyard with moxa sticks.
Xiaotao still had half a moxa stick left in her hand, so she opened the courtyard door, intending to insert it into the cracks in the bricks outside the courtyard.
"Miss Fourth? Why are you wearing so thin clothes?"
Xiaotao threw away the moxa stick and hurriedly went to pull her.
Lian Xiaoxiao glanced into the yard and lowered his head.
"Third sister, do you think I'm dirty?"
When Lian Xiaogang had an accident, Lian Suisui was afraid that she would not be able to get over it, so he let her live in her own yard. When the Qi family's matter was resolved, she asked to go back to Aunt Liu's yard. She couldn't let Aunt Liu worry too much. Lian Suisui agreed.
As soon as her front legs were moved away, moxa sticks started to smoke on her back legs in Qinxinyuan...
"Miss Fourth, that's not the case!"
Lian Xiaoxiao turned around and ran back, but Xiaotao's voice attracted Lian Suisui.
"Invite Fourth Sister in quickly!"
The road was slippery at night, and Lian Xiaoxiao didn't know how long he had been freezing outside. He fell twice in three steps and was chased by Lian Suisui.
"Fourth sister, I'm not targeting you, get the cloak quickly!"
She was cold all over, Xiao Tao brought a cloak to wrap her up, Lian Suisui helped her up, and looked at the scratches on her palms and arms with distress. The original wounds were not healed, but now they were bleeding again.
"Third sister, I, I'm dreaming, I'm very scared!"
No wonder she came out wearing only pajamas. She probably didn't know who to look for and could only come to her.
"It's all over, don't be afraid."
"Xiao Tao is going to prepare hot water for Fourth Sister to take a hot bath. Prepare a few more braziers."
If you don't keep yourself warm, you can easily get sick.
"Third sister, don't leave!"
Lian Xiao's face was stained with tears, and he grabbed her sleeve and refused to let go.
"I'm not leaving. I'll ask my servants to prepare a change of clothes for you."
The little girl was like a stray kitten on the roadside. She carefully grabbed a corner of Lian Suisui's sleeve and obediently let others manipulate her. Lian Suisui took a bath with her in the bathroom.
Xiaotao made the bed.
"Fourth sister will sleep with me today."
After Lian Suisui gave the instructions, she turned around and saw Lian Xiaoxiao staring at her with obsidian eyes, her mood calming down.
"I listen to Third Sister."
Lian Suisui helped her comb her hair.
"If you're scared, you can move in with me in the future. My bed is big anyway."
Her bed was specially made for her by Qin's craftsmen. The original owner's previous figure was quite loose for sleeping on this bed. She has lost weight now, and sleeping on such a big bed alone makes the CEO feel like sleeping on it in the morning. The feeling of waking up on a square meter bed.
Even Xiaoxiao, who is so skinny and small, cannot take up much space.
"Will I disturb Third Sister?"
She asked cautiously, and Lian Suisui covered her with the quilt and lay down next to her.
"No trouble."
The quilt had been roasted over charcoal fire, and the room was warm and lively. His body was warm, and sleepiness came over him. One second, Lian Suisui was talking to Lian Xiaoxiao, and the next second he fell asleep on the pillow.
Lian Xiaoxiao felt very relieved, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Because he and Chen Wanli had made an appointment in advance to go shopping, Lian Suisui decided to take Lian Xiao with him. We can't stay at home all the time, we always have to go out to get some fresh air and experience more things, so that we won't be addicted to the pain of the past and can't extricate ourselves. .
The Lian family was poor, and Lian Fangyu's salary was not much, so the expenses of his aunt and concubine's children were certainly not comparable to those of other families in the capital.
Mrs. Qin's treatment of her concubines was actually not bad. Every season's clothes, shoes, and jewelry came from her father's house, and her monthly salary was not deducted. Aunt Liu spent very little money, and all her monthly money was given to Lian Xiaoxiao. Wear or wear jewelry.
It's just that she never dresses up for fear of stealing the limelight from others.
Lian Suisui asked Xiaotao to give Lian Xiaoxiao a playful hairstyle. At her age, she should be youthful and lively.
"Third sister, isn't this inappropriate for me?"
The playful velvet flower on her head made her face look particularly rosy. Lian Suisui helped her apply rouge and lipstick. The beauty in the bronze mirror had gleaming eyes and a shy face, just like Lin Daiyu.
"It's suitable, why isn't it suitable? It's the age when you are like a flower, so of course you have to dress up!"
"Fourth sister, you are beautiful."
Lian Sui is younger and taller than Lian Xiao. She doesn't like too complicated outfits, so she simply puts on a bun, some gold and jade jewelry, and a snow-white fox fur cloak wrapped around her body, like a fairy who doesn't eat fireworks from the world.
"Third sister, you look good too!"
Lian Xiaoxiao was embarrassed by the praise, "Compared to the third sister, I am the light of the firefly..."
The little girl has a sweet mouth!
"I'll reward you with a pack of sweet-scented osmanthus cake later! Let's go!"
Lian Suisui got up early in the morning, and they also set off early. After drinking a cup of tea at Jiuxiao Tower, Qin Shiqiong arrived.
"Aren't the two sisters from the Chen family here yet?"
Qin Shiqiong wore a tapestry-made beanie today and also wore a velvet flower. Lian Xiao lowered her head in inferiority.
"What are you doing with her?"
The first-born children do not like the concubine children. In the capital circle, the first-born children usually play with the first-born children, and the concubine children play with the concubine children. It is rare to see a concubine like Lian Suisui when he is with his little sisters.
"Ms. Qin drinks tea."
Lian Xiaoxiao made Qin Shiqiong a cup of tea and brought it over, but Qin Shiqiong didn't give her a good look.
"The work of serving tea and water will be done by my own servants. I don't dare bother Miss Fourth."
Lian Xiao froze and subconsciously glanced at Lian Suisui. Lian Suisui didn't help her. She put the tea on the table and said softly: "I thought the weather was cold. Miss Qin would definitely be cold when she came in from outside. Just in time." I was warming my hands with hot tea, but I forgot to ask Miss Qin about her taste. It’s my fault.”
Dignity is earned by oneself. If Lian Xiaoxiao could only feel sorry for herself and feel wronged, Lian Suisui would not be able to help her every time.
Although Qin Shiqiong is arrogant, she will not lose her temper and embarrass others for no reason.
"For my cousin's sake, I won't care."
She picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
Lian Xiao had a smile on his face.
Qin Shiqiong looked at your worthless expression.
Lian Suisui laughed twice, and the atmosphere was relaxed and lively.
"It's strange, it's already this hour, why haven't the two sisters from the Chen family arrived yet?"
They waited for less than half an hour, and the agreed time had already passed. Why hadn't the two Chen sisters arrived yet?
"Perhaps something delayed you on the way?"
Lian Suisui opened the window and looked outside. The carriage of the Chen sisters was parked downstairs. When he looked up, the person who was supposed to be in the carriage appeared in the tea room on the second floor of the tea house opposite.
