Chapter 9
The fifth wife glanced at the fourth wife gratefully. Although the fourth wife had no son like her, she gave birth to two daughters anyway. As long as the husband is willing to wait, a son will be born sooner or later.I have been in the house for two years, but I have not been able to conceive. I have exhausted all methods, and my husband has begun to complain.

She didn't want to pay attention to the affairs of the mansion, she just locked herself in the yard and recited scriptures, hoping that the Bodhisattva would bless her to give birth to a boy and a half girl, and the rest of her wish was fulfilled.

The third wife's natal family is a businessman, and she is considered a high-ranking person to be able to marry into the Chen family. After giving birth to a son, she tried her best to curry favor with the second wife.He insisted on asking the second lady to help arrange the third master into the Taipu Temple. Although he was just a small official, he was better than other people who were idle.For this reason, the third wife is the only one who follows the second wife, and she is the only one who laughs out loud at this moment.

Of course, these all happened at the main table, and the Fuchu sisters were not affected.At this moment, it was a time of joy and harmony. Miss Qi of the fourth room was the youngest, looking at Chen Jiaoer with curious eyes, and asked, "Cousin sister, I heard mother said that you were pushed on the tree by the third brother and hit your head, but you left a scar."

Chen Jiao'er quickly glanced at the third young lady, Chen Qiluo, and said, "Seventh sister, don't wrong the third young master. It was Jiao'er who accidentally bumped into a tree. If the third young master hadn't appeared in time, I don't know what would have happened."

Chen Qiluo glanced at Chen Jiao'er, then stared at Chen Qisi fiercely, and then said, "Some people should remember their identities, and don't run around in other people's houses when they have nothing to do. What kind of misfortune happened to make the daughter of the Chen family make people laugh."

As soon as the words were finished, the scene became cold for an instant, and all the sisters looked up at Chen Jiao'er curiously, and then at Chen Qiluo.Only the young Chen Qi wanted to say something, but was held back by the older Chen Qilu.

Chen Jiao'er stood up and bowed her body and said, "What the third sister taught me is that Jiao'er will not dare in the future."

"It's good to know. You should know that people outside call us the century-old Chen family. The ancestors of the Chen family are heroes of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the daughters of the family cannot fall into the status of ancestors. You must behave with restraint, know how to advance and retreat, and don't be careless. This stingy appearance makes people look down on you." Chen Qiluo waved her hand and told Chen Jiaoer to sit down.

After this incident, several people at the table lost interest, hurriedly finished their meal, and parted ways.Miss Qi was very upset, and after going out, she quietly came to look for Chen Jiao'er and said, "Cousin, I'm really sorry just now, if it wasn't for me, I wouldn't have provoked Third Sister to lose her temper with you."

Chen Qilu also chimed in, "It's really my sister's fault. I hope my cousin will not blame her because of her young age."

Chen Jiao'er hurriedly helped up the blessed Qi Si and said, "Don't say that, the third sister is the eldest daughter of the mansion, she should teach us a lesson, and what does it have to do with the seventh sister."

The sisters went back to the courtyard to rest, and made an appointment to gather together in the main room after the young masters finished school.It is only one step away from Jinhuaju, just past the Chuihua Gate.

"So, Miss San taught her a lesson in front of the sisters." The old lady leaned on the Arhat's bed, feeling a little tired. After all, she was old and tired of socializing all morning.

"Exactly." It was Zhiqin, the first-class maid beside the old lady, who answered.

"Well, what about the four girls, what's your reaction?"

Zhiqin also reported everyone's reactions, including the incident that Miss Seven caught up with Chen Jiao'er in the Chaoshou verandah.

"Well, I'm tired, and I have to take a rest, so go too."

Soon there was a slight and long breathing sound from the inner room, and the maids and women in the outer room were silent one by one, tidying up their hands and feet nimbly.

After going back, Chen Jiao'er comforted Cherry a lot, and felt funny in her heart, she was not angry when she was a lady, but she was so angry that she was a maid.

angry?Of course, he was still angry, angry and bullying, the third young master turned sixteen this year, and went to bully a helpless little girl.

How arrogant and domineering Miss San is, turning black and white to accuse a person who was almost killed by her brother, no, he was already killed.If he hadn't been reborn on her body, the Chen family would already be doing the funeral.

How domineering and domineering is the eldest lady to detain an orphan girl who has no support.The second lady is merciful on the surface, but when she is using her as a pawn, have you ever thought about what will happen to this pawn if she achieves her goal?

Anger also requires capital. If you can't hit it with one blow, you can only endure it until you are able.

This sentence is... Chen Jiao'er's heart fluttered for no reason. This was what the Shi Zi said to her personally, and she always remembered it.It's a pity that she didn't do it in her previous life, so she won't make the same mistake again in this life.

The simple cherry dissipated, and began to look forward to the fireworks at night again.With a thought in mind, Chen Jiaoer beckoned Cherry to come over, and said, "It's just a meal tonight and I'll be back. You can ask Xiaowen and other like-minded sisters to have fun."

"This..." Cherry is only fifteen or sixteen years old, locked in the mansion every day, wishing to have fun, but thinking of Miss being alone, she still shook her head firmly and said, "No, I can't leave Miss alone."

"Why did you leave it behind? I have something for you to inquire about."

"What's the matter." Cherry's eyes lit up, she was good at inquiring about news, who made her bubbly and talkative.

"The Lin family that Zhihua talked about today, do you remember? Does their family have any relatives in the mansion, and who will take off their registration for them?"

"This family, Miss asks what they do." Although Cherry doesn't want to see this family greedy for life and afraid of death, and loses Miss and becomes a servant of their own, but what does this have to do with their own family.

"It's just the death of a rabbit and the fox's sorrow. They are all helpless people. Seeing her die so tragically, firstly I want to ask why, and secondly, I want to give ourselves and us a good look." The sadness on Chen Jiao'er's face made Cherry stand up quickly.

"Yes, Miss." Although Cherry was a little talkative and not particularly clever, but seeing Miss was so sad, she couldn't help but vowed in her heart that she must complete Miss's confession.

At the reunion banquet in the evening, Chen Jiaoer met the young masters in the mansion. The eldest master, Chen Ziping, was 19 years old. He already had a reputation as a scholar and studied in the Imperial College.He has already been engaged, but because of the other party's filial piety, he will not be able to get married until next year.With a serious and upright face, he looked very much like the second master.

The second young master, Chen Zikang, is 17 years old this year. Although his studies are not as good as that of the eldest young master, he can send one of his sons to the Guozijian with his fourth grade of Beijing official. In addition, he has his grandfather to take care of him.It looks more like the second wife, with a baby face, and it looks like a smile even if it is not smiling.

The third young master, Chen Zian, was 16 years old. He looked the most glamorous on the outside, but his eyes were shining like a thief.Chen Jiao'er laughed to herself, it was the first time she saw the young masters of the Chen family after her rebirth, and she had the worst impression on the third young master who was the most handsome.

The fourth young master, Chen Zining, was born to Aunt Yu, the head of the house. He is 15 years old this year. He has a quiet and generous demeanor. It is only when you look carefully that you can find the gloom in his eyes.

The fifth young master of the third room, Chen Ziyang, was only ten years old. He was a cowardly child, both in expression and manner.

"Cousin Jiao'er, I heard that you have recovered from your injury. In the future, don't be naughty and go to the back garden to play alone. If you want to go, ask your sisters to go with you. You can also have a companion, and you won't hurt yourself." Chen Jiao'er didn't It occurred to her that the first young master who spoke to her was the most serious young master, Chen Ziping.

He hurriedly replied, "Yes, Jiao'er will definitely obey the orders of the young master in the future."

"Okay, you will teach others, and your younger sister will also teach you a lesson. If you don't know, you may think that our Chen family has teamed up to bully an orphan girl." Chen Zikang showed a round face from behind, and made a grimace at Chen Jiao'er. He followed his elder brother to the outside room.

Chen Zian's face was gloomy, he didn't even look at the crowd, he left on his own, and Chen Zining followed closely.

It seems that there is a bigger gap between the young masters of the first room and the second room than the sisters, Chen Jiao'er secretly smiled.What the Eldest Young Master and the Second Young Master said just now was clearly referring to Sang and scolding Huai for Chen Zian to listen to.

Although it is my own family, the meals are separated by a screen. The so-called men and women have different seats at the age of eight. Although the Great Zhou Dynasty was not as strict as the previous dynasty on men and women, and even encouraged widows to remarry, the rules of the big family still followed the previous dynasty. Etiquette and customs.

All the maids and mothers-in-law who came with him were sent away, and they had their own table to entertain them.Each table has a little maid serving the dishes or serving tea and water, and clearing the tableware.

It's still the same table at noon, but a few family members from the Chen family have been added, all of them are about the same age.Some looked enviously at the clothes of Chen Qiluo and Chen Qishan, and some stared at the jewelry on their heads.

Chen Qiluo was wearing a Sichuan brocade gown with peony patterns with gold thread buttons, a butterfly skirt with smoke and clouds, and a flying moon bun, and a hairpin sprinkled with gold peony gems so that people could hardly take their eyes off it.Chen Qishan was not inferior either, with a cherry red embroidered butterfly pattern makeup and flower placket paired with a blue dark flower vine pattern cloud brocade and moon flower skirt, all kinds of flattery came like flowing water, Chen Qilu and Chen Jiao'er looked at each other and smiled, He bowed his head and ate by himself.

Chen Qishan was so flattered that she smiled, and said, "On the fourth day of the fourth day, my third sister and I are going to visit the Dongjun Prince's Mansion. I heard that the chrysanthemums in the Palace are the best in the capital."

"It's not uncommon to go to the prince's mansion. On the sixth day of the lunar new year, my mother and I will go to the Prince Xianjun's house as a guest." Chen Qiluo rolled her eyes at Chen Qishan, and said proudly.

Sure enough, it attracted the exclamation of all the women, the one with less than one person and more than ten thousand people in the Great Zhou Dynasty was the King of Xianjun.This news was enough to attract everyone's attention to her again.

Chen Qishan put down the bowls and chopsticks angrily. Seeing that Chen Jiao'er didn't participate, she stood up and took her hand and said, "Sister Jiao'er, have you used it up? Why don't we watch the fireworks. The bridge in the back garden is the highest, Let's get a seat first, but we won't be able to get in at night."
