The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 393
After summer, the weather outside is quite hot, but the ice cellar in Linglong Garden has not been broken for a day, and the room is still a bit cool at this time.

Sun Yu'e was only wearing a homely water-green gown, and her face was not made up, making her look a bit haggard.When she heard the message from the little maid outside, she was stunned for a moment before asking: "What did you say? The old lady called me over?"

The maid was originally the third-class maid in the Songhe Hall of the old lady, but she was assigned to this place because all the people in Linglong Garden were dismissed. The maids who have been there also know how much the old lady loved her granddaughter back then.

"That's right! Girl, hurry up and wash up, go there earlier. The old lady must know that today is the girl's birthday, so she invited the girl over. Even the wife sent a congratulatory gift. How could the old lady forget it?" It's over!" The servant girl stepped forward and helped Sun Yu'e up, seeing how pitiful she looked now, the arrogance and domineeringness she used to have completely disappeared, and even her eyes showed a bit of pitifulness.

"The girl has been imprisoned for so long, she should go out to get some air. The old lady invited the girl out this time, maybe she won't be locked up again in the future." At that time, the maids of Songhetang were rarely bullied by Sun Yu'e Yes, so for this big girl, I usually feel a little too arrogant, so it's not their turn to add insult to injury.

The little maid persuaded Sun Yu'e a few more words, and helped her to the dressing table, and a slightly haggard face appeared in the bronze mirror.It seemed that Sun Yu'e hadn't looked in the mirror for a long time. When she saw herself in the mirror, she froze for a moment, and her red eyes became even redder.

"Go get me some water, and I'll wash my face." She has been locked up for a while, and there have been quarrels and quarrels, but in the end it has no effect at all, so that today's Sun Yu'e, however, seemed to have used up all the strength in her body, and her speech was a little soft.

"The maidservant has already ordered you to go down." Seeing her like this, the servant girl also sighed, turned around and saw the old woman coming in with washing water, and then went to the chest of drawers in the inner room to find a new dress for Sun Yu'e.

These summer clothes were all ordered to be made during the Chinese New Year. Later, even though the sewing room changed people, they did not deduct half a cent from Linglong Garden. Even the monthly money for these two months was given on a monthly basis. Apparently, this new wife is indeed a good character.Back then, the eldest girl didn't like her so much, but now she can still treat the eldest girl like this, it is her big belly.

Sun Yu'e washed her face and put on new clothes. She has been negligent in dressing up for a while, and she has not worn many new clothes. At this time, she saw the water-red Shu brocade folded branch pattern half-sleeved tunic skirt on her body, and couldn't help but ask. He got up and said, "Where did this dress come from? I haven't seen it before."

"These clothes were delivered from the sewing room last month. They are the girls' clothes for this summer. It was too late when they were delivered. I'm afraid the girls will blame them. They are the most fashionable clothes this year." The maid tied the belt for her. , took a picture in the dressing mirror, said with a smile: "Young girl is growing up, you can't wear old clothes, but the clothes my wife gave you are just right."

Sun Yu'e lowered her head a little after hearing this. Her impression of Zhao Jing was only a few months ago when she was a lady in the Hou Mansion.Although Zhao Jing was strict at that time, she never took her seriously, because she only treated her as an outsider from the beginning to the end.

"Okay, the clothes are ready, let's go there, don't make the old lady wait." She didn't know why she felt a little upset when thinking of her, now that she heard that she was pregnant again, the old lady must is more happy.

Sun Yu'e hadn't been out of the gate of Linglong Garden for several months. Seeing that the lotus flowers in the lotus pond outside had already bloomed, she realized that she had really missed a whole summer.

A palace lantern carved with red lacquer was hung in front of the hanging flower door of Songhe Hall, and blooming roses crawled out of it, and bursts of laughter came from the room.Sun Yu'e felt a little pain in her heart when she heard the laughter. In the past, she must have been the one laughing in the room, but whose laughter is now?Xu Xian?Qi Jiahui?Or maybe I heard that a new girl was picked up by the old lady?
She went inside with a little curiosity, but stopped at the door, and the maids were busy passing on the message, before she came to this Songhe Hall, but she never wanted anyone to pass the message.Just as she was thinking blankly, the curtain at the door had been drawn, and Shuangxi, the maidservant in the old lady's room, came out to welcome her. She stepped forward to greet her with a smile, and said to the inside: "Old lady, madam, the eldest girl is here." .”

Although this kind of scene was unfamiliar to Sun Yu'e, it seemed a little fresh. She walked in with a short body, and immediately saw the old lady Xu sitting on the huanghuali armchair in the hall.
