Eldest daughter

Chapter 466 Unkind Invitation
On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Wang Yuan'er ordered two carts of earthenware, and sent a proper woman in charge and long-term follower to send away Wang Chun'er, mother and son.

At the city gate, Wang Yuan'er raised the curtain of the car, and waited until the convoy of Wang Chun'er and his party was gone, then knocked on the car board and ordered to go back to the city.

When the car entered the city, Wang Yuan'er was not in a hurry to go back to Cui's house, but ordered to go to the house in Bali Hutong.

Just after the sweltering summer heat in July, the temperature in the morning and evening became cooler. Wang Lan'er was greedy for the cold, and caught a little cold if she didn't pay attention.In addition to these two days, Lan'er's good days have just arrived, so today Wang Chun'er and the others suppressed her and raised her at home, and did not let her go out of the city.

When Wang Yuan'er arrived, Wang Lan'er was standing at the second door wearing a thin cloak, her face was a little pale, and she was full of smiles.

"You haven't fully recovered from your illness, and you're not feeling well, why are you still here?" Wang Yuan'er frowned, and quickly stepped forward while supporting Dong Xue's hand.

Wang Lan'er bowed her knees and saluted with a smile, stepped forward to support her other arm, and said, "I'm here to welcome Eldest Sister."

"Eldest sister is not a child anymore, do you still want to welcome her?" Wang Yuan'er looked at her lovingly.

Wang Lan'er stuck out her tongue and said, "I just want to greet you."

The two walked into the inner courtyard and went directly to Wang Lan'er's room.

The small boudoir is very elegantly decorated. There is a guqin by the window. There is a sour branch stand next to the piano. There is a pastel beauty holding a pipa and a dendrobium with a few long stems of aloe on it. It is quite elegant .

Sitting on the couch, Wang Yuan'er looked at Yaomei, who was wearing a pink and blue dress embroidered with hibiscus. She had a small face and a dimple at the corner of her mouth. When she smiled sweetly, the dimple was deep, and her eyes were black and bright, very agile.

She was sitting there with her hands on her knees, her ten fingers were slender, because she was wearing a high-waist skirt, she could still see her slender figure just by sitting.
Over the years, she has been pampered by several older sisters, and she specially invited a female teacher to teach her. Wang Laner's behavior is the same as that of ordinary ladies.

It's just because the older sisters are already married, and there are only two masters left in their house, she and Baolai, and they learned to run the house from Wang Yuan'er early on, so their temperament is more mature than girls of average age.

Wang Yuan'er sighed, saying that the children of poor families have long been the head of the family, and their big houses are not poor, but they have no parents, and the older sisters are married, so it is impossible to take care of everything, so they can only bite the bullet and become the head of the family early girl.

If both parents are there, at this age, isn't she quite naive and ignorant of worldly affairs?Today's Lan'er, even in front of her sisters, can still reveal the cuteness and self-willedness of a little girl.

"Our Lan'er has also grown into a big girl." Wang Yuan'er sighed, touching her shiny black black hair.

Wang Lan'er blushed, lowered her head shyly, and pouted, "I don't want to grow up."

"Silly girl, if Tiankui comes to the girl's house, she will become a big girl and can discuss marriage." Wang Yuan'er said with a smile.

"Sister..." Wang Lan'er said coquettishly, "What are you talking about, I'm still young."

"Okay, I'm still young, I'm still young, our youngest sister is always young." Wang Yuan'er saw that her face turned pale, so she stopped teasing her.

Wang Lan'er just gave up, leaned against her, touched her stomach, and said, "It's been three months, right?"

"It's full. If it wasn't for the fact that the baby hasn't sat still, your brother-in-law probably wouldn't have let me come out to see your second sister off." Wang Yuaner's face was gentle.

Wang Lan'er giggled: "My brother-in-law has always been nervous about you, but now that you are twins, you are naturally precious."

"Little girl, do you even dare to make fun of the elder sister?" Wang Yuan'er pinched her little face lightly, only feeling that the skin under her fingertips was very soft.

Wang Lan'er didn't hide, she just smiled and let her pinch her.

"You." Wang Yuan'er patted her forehead and said: "Now that your second sister has gone back to Changle Town, you can only rely on you to run the house. You have been learning to run the house with your eldest sister for two years. If you hadn't had to , this matter of being the head of the family will not fall on your head, and it will only tire you in the future."

Wang Lan'er heard the words and said: "Sister, why are you tired? Just now you said that I have grown up, so naturally I have to learn to be in charge of the family. You and the second sister are both married. My sister is in the palace again, and my younger brother is still a long time away from marrying a wife, so naturally I have to take charge of it."

"If it weren't for our parents to leave early, what would it be? Sigh." Wang Yuan'er sighed.

"Eldest sister, you're hurting the spring and the autumn again. Don't talk about whether your parents are there or not. In fact, in our town, which girl didn't help with housework and take care of her younger siblings since she was a child? Elder sister, you were not the same back then. The head girl? This time the eldest sister is married, but I can't understand it!" Wang Lan'er said anxiously.

Wang Yuaner was taken aback.

"Sister, I can do what you can do. Don't worry about those miscellaneous things. I can manage the family affairs now. Besides, there are so many servants. I'm just talking about it." Just touch it." Wang Lan'er continued.

Wang Yuan'er seemed to sigh with emotion, and said quietly: "Our Lan'er has really grown into an adult, and he understands it better than the elder sister. If my parents are here, I don't know why I am happy. And your third sister, if you look at you You are so sensible, maybe you can be happy. You know, you used to bite your fingers and cry, but she laughed at you a lot!"

Wang Lan'er's small face darkened slightly: "Isn't it all forced out? If my parents were here, I might not be as sensible as I am now. It can be seen that there are losses and gains. As for the third sister, I don't know if I have a chance. I can see her again."

As she spoke, she had a longing and missing look on her face.

Wang Yuan'er's heart moved, and she said: "It will be your third sister's birthday in a few days, I will pass a sign to the palace to greet her, ask for grace, and take you into the palace together?"

Wang Lan'er was overjoyed: "Can it still be like this?"

"Your third sister is pregnant with a dragon heir and is celebrating her birthday. Now she is still favored. If you ask for grace, it will be fine." Wang Yuan'er said with a smile.

"If that's the case, that's great!" Wang Lan'er clapped her hands, her eyes lit up.

Seeing her excited, Wang Yuan'er couldn't help but smile, and made up her mind to show Wang Qing'er the meaning.

After talking to Wang Lan'er for a long time, seeing that her face was still pale, Wang Yuan'er stopped talking and told her to go down to rest and recuperate, while she went to talk to Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu has been living in the Wang family and teaching Wang Lan'er for the past few years. To Wang Lan'er, she is both a teacher and a mother. My son's female husband usually teaches Wang Lan'er, and visits her sisters when she is free, so she is very comfortable.

Hearing that Wang Yuan'er was coming, she went out to greet her, and the two of them leaned on the couch and talked.

"In these years, thanks to your teaching, sir, although Lan'er didn't learn your skills very much, she still has two or three points. I looked at her, she was a big girl, and now Tiankui came again, even more She is pretty, and her words and deeds are extremely decent, and this is all thanks to you, sir." Wang Yuan'er said, standing up again and giving her a solemn blessing.

Mrs. Lu hurriedly stood up to avoid it, and said with a smile: "Madam, you don't need to do such a big ceremony. You have a body, so you don't need to be too polite." After speaking, she helped her to the couch and sat down again.

She also sat down by herself, took a sip of tea, and said: "If I want to say credit, I can't really do anything. I usually teach her the piano. Needless to say, the female celebrity, Mrs. Hou is a good player, and I have nothing to do with it." It's easy to teach, but I'm just giving pointers, speaking of it, I'm also a lazy gentleman, and I usually rely on her talent and my own thinking."

"Mr. is too ignorant. Without Mr.'s guidance, she might still be a wild girl now!" Wang Yuan'er chuckled.

Mrs. Lu glanced at her, and said: "Lan'er is pure and kind, and she is well-behaved and sensible. Since I am a teacher and apprentice with her, it is also fate. I can only hope for her well. This girl, I think she is a blessing." Ze Mian long, Madam, don't worry!"

Wang Yuan'er smiled and sighed softly: "To tell you the truth, when I look at her today, I feel like I have grown up as a younger sister. Our sisters are all married, and now there are only her and Baolai in this family. My father Mother left early, there is no one to support the family, and we are all married, so we can't take care of everything, and this family matter will definitely fall on her."

Lady Lu listened with a smile.

"She's twelve years old this year. To put it bluntly, she's thirteen or fourteen, and she won't be able to stay for a few years. In the past few years, if she can manage the house well, she will always have a good reputation when she goes to someone else's house in the future. "Wang Yuan'er looked at her, and said sincerely: "I deliberately left their siblings in Beijing to take care of them, but you also know that the family I married has strict rules and I can't always take care of them. Now that Chun'er has returned to Changle Town, we I have a merciless request here, and I hope you will take pity on me." After saying that, he stood up and gave a blessing.

Mrs. Lu was slightly surprised, and said, "Tell me."

"Actually, it's nothing. Our small family can only rely on Lan'er as the girl in charge. Even if I help from the side, I can't take care of everything. If you don't want to go, sir, can you guide me a little bit?" You don't need to worry about Lan'er's sophistication, if there is any important matter, you just need to sit in charge as an elder in the future." Wang Yuan'er said with a smile.
Mrs. Lu thought for a while, then smiled and said: "If you don't think I'm getting in the way, it's okay, but I'm lazy by nature, so I can only help out with an idea, and Lan'er has to rely on herself .”

Wang Yuan'er breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Of course, sir, you only need to be an elder who sits in the town and give some pointers occasionally."

There are no elders in the family, there is only a 12-year-old girl and a boy who has no teeth, after all, it is not good enough. As the husband, Mrs. Lu sits in the back. If there is any important matter that I can't take care of, Lan'er can find it to discuss If it's a person, it won't be a mistake. When Lan'er discusses marriage in the future, it will be spread, and it won't be said that Lan'er has no one to teach.
