Eldest daughter

Chapter 298
When Wang Yuaner opened her eyes and woke up, it was already daylight. Looking at the blue and white tent, she was at a loss for a moment. When did she lie on the bed and fall asleep?
Yes, Cui Yuan came last night!
Wang Yuaner suddenly turned over and sat up, looked to the side, there was no one, and then looked in the room, there was no second person's breath, only her.

They kissed inseparably last night, and then she gradually fell asleep. She remembered asking him what happened, but she forgot what he answered, and vaguely heard words that seemed to be family members.

Wang Yuan'er touched her mouth, she actually shared the bed with him!
Thinking of this, her face became hot and hot, and she hurriedly got out of bed, dressed and washed.

When she went to use the morning court, everyone saw that her mouth was red and swollen, and they couldn't help being very surprised.

"Did you get bitten by insects? Now that the weather is getting hotter, there are a lot of snakes, insects, rats and ants, and they are very poisonous, so you have to be careful." Aunt Cai came in with a basket of steamed buns and looked carefully at them. Looking at Wang Yuan'er's mouth, he said: "It's a little swollen, and the skin is a little bit broken. Miss, let me get some oil for you to apply?"

For some reason, Wang Yuan'er wanted to laugh. Hearing this, she quickly waved her hands and said, "No need, I just got angry and bit it myself."

After saying this, she heard a chuckle, and the girl Qing'er covered her mouth and smiled thoughtfully.

Wang Yuaner glared at her, and sat down to eat breakfast as if nothing had happened.

"Sister, I was bitten by a bug." Xiao Baolai held his own small wooden spoon with an innocent expression on his face.

Wang Yuan'er pinched his chubby face, smiled and stretched out her claws to pretend to be bugs to scare him: "Bite Xiaobao's mouth too."

"Ah, don't." Wang Baolai screamed and avoided in fright.

Everyone was amused and laughed.

"The weather is a bit hot, so I'll boil some mung bean water later, to clear away the heat and detoxify." Aunt Cai smiled and put a saliva bag around Baolai.

"Ah."

After breakfast, before going out, Wang Qing'er approached Wang Yuan'er and said softly, "Eldest sister, is that bug Master Cui?"

Wang Yuan'er's face became hot, and she reached out to pinch her: "Little girl, I think you are talking nonsense!"

Wang Qing'er moved away nimbly, and ran away with a charming smile.

Wang Yuan'er wandered outside for a long time, intending to ask Cui Yuan for clarification, but she didn't meet him, she couldn't help wondering, if it wasn't for the evidence of red and swollen lips, she would have thought she was having a dream.

She deliberately went to the yamen, the gatekeeper knew her and told her that Cui Yuan had gone to work early in the morning.

"It's disgusting!" Wang Yuan'er stomped her feet and pouted, complaining a little in her heart. This man teased her, patted her butt and ran away.

……

It is said that after the Dragon Boat Festival in May, cold clothes will not be put in the box. After the Dragon Boat Festival, the weather will gradually become hotter. The townspeople in Changle Town have changed into summer clothes, and the girls are wearing flowers in their hairpins. Very pleasing to the eye.

Wang Yuan'er walked around the street, gossiping when she met acquaintances, some people more or less tested their sisters' marriage, and by the way asked her about Zhang's running for Fuquan's marriage.

Mrs. Zhang was reluctant to part with the relatives of the Mo family, and ignored the persuasion of Wang Er and Mrs. Wang, so she brought a gift and dragged the middleman to Mo's house to chat.

Knowing that Wang Yuan'er and the others were unwilling to exchange marriages, the Mo family's attitude naturally became weak. Why would they do something that is not beneficial?
Therefore, the desire to get married to Zhang's family has also faded, and it has just been dismissed in a neither salty nor light way.

Within two days, news came that Mo Xiumei was married by his parents to be a widower in Beijing to fill in the house. I heard that someone in that family was a small official in the imperial court, and his family background was quite good, but the widower Mo Xiumei is nearly 20 years older.

When Wang Yuan'er heard the news, she was disgusted. The Mo family really did it by sacrificing their daughter to marry a widower for the sake of their son.

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhang was also depressed, and privately scolded the Mo family for being snobbish, dove-eyed, disliking the poor and loving the rich, in short, she said all the bad things.

On the other hand, Fuquan was very calm, and he didn't know if it was Mo's attitude that provoked him or something, but now he was immersed in his work, only thinking about making money.

Wang Yuan'er didn't know whether this was good or bad, but everyone has their own ambitions, and she couldn't interfere.

Walking on the street, someone suddenly ran towards the ferry, Wang Yuan'er was a little strange, what excitement is there to watch?

She pulled an acquaintance to ask, and the person said enthusiastically: "I heard that the boat for the show girl who went to the capital for the draft has arrived, so let's go see the beauties."

Naturally, there are people from all over the country reporting the draft girls. It is not surprising that they are sent to the middle of Beijing by boat. Since Changle Town is the center, it is only natural to pass here.

Wang Yuan'er didn't go to watch the excitement, she had seen it before in Beijing, all the young ladies were wearing veiled hats, and they couldn't see their faces at all, since these beautiful girls are going to the palace to run for election, they will only be more cautious, how can they show their true faces Let people see?
Back at the tea shed shop, Wang Chun'er was the only one busy with work, but Qing'er's girl was nowhere to be seen.

"Where did that girl go to hide? Why are you the only one busy?" Wang Yuan'er snatched the rag from her hand, pushed her to rest on a chair, and asked with a frown.

"She said she would go to the ferry to see the excitement, and she heard that some beautiful girl's boat is coming, she wants to see it." Wang Chun'er patted her waist lightly.

Wang Yuan'er's face sank, and she said, "What's so interesting about this? I think she's just avoiding laziness, so don't spoil her, your body is getting heavier and heavier, what if there is any loss? Ah, bah, bah, bah , look at my crow's mouth."

She pretended to spit twice on the ground, spit out all the bad words.

Wang Chun'er pursed her lips and smiled, swept her hands back and forth on her abdomen, and said, "Eldest sister, my body is quite neat, so I don't get in the way. You also know that it's a good thing for her to be young. If she is not allowed to go, I'm afraid I can read it." one day."

Wang Yuan'er packed up everything, then sat down beside her, touched her belly, and said: "You are more than six months old this month, and you will have your first child in a few months. Be careful."

Wang Chuner nodded.

Wang Yuan'er talked to her again about which stable woman to find to deliver the baby, and what to do during the confinement period, Wang Chun'er only nodded in response with a smile on her face.

After talking for a long time, Wang Qing'er came back bouncing around with an excited expression on her face.

Wang Yuan'er pretended to look down at her: "Are you willing to come back?"

"Elder Sister." Wang Qing'er moved inexplicably, and subconsciously approached Second Sister.

"You don't have to hide it." Wang Yuan'er snorted when she saw this, and scolded: "You are so old, you can marry and become a mother, and you are still like a child. Listening to the wind is rain, where is the excitement? Wherever you go, I don't even look at your running. The work of this shop falls on your second sister. She is a double body, and she is pregnant with your nephew. If you fall down when you are tired, you What to do?"

Wang Qing'er was startled, and quickly looked at Wang Chun'er: "Second Sister, did you fall?"

"It's nothing, I'm fine." Wang Chun'er patted her hand, looked at Wang Yuan'er and said, "Sister, don't talk about her, she doesn't always do this, besides, the work in this shop is all done by seeing, I Do it."

"Just get used to her, and sooner or later something big will happen." Wang Yuan'er gave them an annoyed look.

Wang Chun'er hastily winked at Wang Qing'er.

Wang Qing'er immediately went to Wang Yuan'er's side and acted like a baby: "Oh, elder sister, I also saw that there were no customers in the shop, so I went to watch the excitement. If there are many people here, would I dare to abandon second sister?"

"Are you okay to say that?"

"Yes, yes, it's my sister's fault. I won't dare in the future, big sister!" Wang Qing'er pinched her ears with both hands, making a pitiful expression.

Wang Yuan'er was so teased that she chuckled, and said angrily, "You are used to making jokes!"

Wang Qing'er breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Eldest sister can be scary when she is fierce."

"I'm not scaring you. I'm telling you the truth. Your second sister is the first child and she's a month old. She has difficulty moving and working hard. You need to be tighter." Wang Yuan'er said.

"I know." Wang Qing'er pouted her mouth, coquettishly, seeing that her face seemed to be getting better, she said: "Elder sister, I saw those beautiful girls, tsk tsk, each of them really has a posture."

"Why, the show girls are all the emperor's women. They haven't been selected yet, and they will show you their true faces?" Wang Yuan'er sneered.

"That's not true, they are all wearing hats, but the clothes, and the gestures, are really beautiful." Wang Qing'er said, her eyes glowing.

"Since people are able to select girls, they must have gone through a lot of hard work. This is not enough. When you go to the palace, there are special nuns to teach the rules. If you don't do well, you will be punished and scolded. This is not for fun." Wang Yuaner didn't think it was a good thing at all.

But Wang Qing'er propped her chin, and said with yearning: "But if you are chosen to be the emperor's wife, it will be worth it."

Wang Yuan'er snorted softly: "The emperor already has a queen in the palace, and if she is chosen, she can only be a concubine. In the palace, there are traps everywhere. Every step counts as ten steps, and every step is easy. If you are not careful, you will be tricked. I don't know how you will die. If it were me, I wouldn't want to!"

"If it were me, I would die, and I want to fight!" Wang Qing'er subconsciously continued.

Wang Yuan'er knocked her on the forehead when she heard the words, and said, "Stop daydreaming, go to the back and boil water, and let your second sister do things later, I want you to look good, I'll go back first. "

Wang Qing'er touched her forehead and cried out for pain, and secretly said to the second sister: "Master Cui has not been seen for the past two days, I think the eldest sister is suffering from lovesickness again, and it hurts to beat someone."

Wang Chun'er chuckled lightly, and said: "Eldest sister is telling the truth, I don't think the imperial palace is a good place to go, but no matter how you say it, it's not a place that ordinary people like us can look at."

Wang Qing'er let out a sigh, lay down on the table listlessly, and said, "Isn't that the case, who told us not to be reborn in a rich official family."

"Okay, we can't choose where to reincarnate. Everyone's life, only you know, how do you say that sentence, like a person who drinks water, knows his own temperature, and some people may also envy our life What!" Wang Chun'er smiled faintly.

Maybe that's the case, Wang Qing'er thought, but in her mind, the looks and dresses of those beautiful girls were always recurring.
