Chapter 24 Mother and Daughter
"Miss Kan Biao is not difficult to wait on, I will tell my sister later." Qiu Ye said and took Xiangling's hand affectionately, "Cousin, you know my sister's stuffy temper, if she does, how can she do it?" No, you should take care of her a little more!"

Xiang Ling tapped Qiu Ye's forehead, "Qiu Ling is calmer, but I look better than you." After speaking, seeing Qiu Ye still waiting for her promise, she couldn't help laughing: "I agreed. You are, my sister, who else can I protect if I don't protect her?!"

Mrs. Wang couldn't be free in her own room, she was fiddled with the abacus in front of the ledger at the moment, the clear and crisp sound of the abacus crackled, and the fragrance of lilies in the green-glazed double-eared three-legged stove made people feel tired A little more soothing.

Liansheng's family went down to work earlier, this time Mrs. Du and the others brought back a lot of things from Lanling, most of them were Miss Xiao's cousin's dowry and some supplies, and she had to go down to arrange them properly.

Chunliu waited in front of Mrs. Wang, pouring tea and handing over the ledger from time to time, her movements were light and silent.

Mrs. Wang took a sip of her tea, looked at the account, and asked casually: "Is there any other news from the old lady? Miss Biao has already gone to settle down?"

Chunliu replied respectfully: "The old lady is still resting there, Miss Biao already used the snacks we sent, and asked Qiu Ye to thank you!"

"This girl is just too polite, the family doesn't deserve such a place."

Mrs. Wang shook her head with a smile, and then ordered: "Turn back and ask Lian Sheng's family to go to the kitchen and give an order. Although Huai Su has followed the old lady's diet, she is really weak and needs to be nourished. The period should not be too long, but what should be there should not be left behind."

"Yes."

Chunliu hurriedly responded, seeing that Mrs. Wang was in a daze, she couldn't help asking: "Madam, what else do you want?"

Mrs. Wang was startled, and couldn't help rubbing the center of her brows, showing a bit of fatigue, "Forget it, I have to write a few medicinal recipes in my spare time and send them to the kitchen."

The Wang family of Langya has a profound heritage, how can a family of hundreds of years not have their own prescriptions for health care and recuperation, when Wang got married, she copied a copy and took it with her. Now that she thought about it in her mind, she already felt that there were several suitable recipes. A warming and tonic medicinal diet for a little girl to regulate her body.

"Madam, do you want to take a break?" Chunliu persuaded, "You have been busy for two hours, anyway, you still have Liansheng's sister-in-law to help, so don't tire yourself out."

"Squeeze my shoulders, I'm really tired!"

Wang put down the barrel of the pen in her hand, let Chunliu pinch it lightly or heavily for her behind her, and her whole body relaxed slowly.

After a while, I heard Dongxue report from outside, "Ma'am, Second Miss is here!"

Immediately after the heavy cotton curtain was lifted, Du Yanyun stepped forward lightly, the jade-colored skirt turned around the nanmu screen carved with phoenixes wearing peonies, smiled before saying anything, and bowed to Wang, "Mother !"

The nine-year-old girl is slim, her facial features are gradually opening up, and she has the charm of a little girl in every gesture.

Wang's face was a little more relieved, he waved to his daughter, and smiled kindly: "Why don't you go take a break? Where's Miss Yu?" As he spoke, he put down the account book he had just picked up, He pulled Du Yanyun to sit beside him.

"Second miss!"

Chunliu bowed to Du Yanyunfu and stepped aside.

"After playing with Sister Yu for a while, she was a little tired so she took a rest first."

Du Yanyun glanced at the account book on the table, "Mother Zhou was tired and should have a rest, why didn't she have to stop after reading the account?" There was a trace of intimate reproach in the words, but the deep concern was obvious.

"I'm going to rest now." The smile in Wang's eyes grew stronger, and he patted his daughter's hand again, "Did you come to see me for something?"

Du Yanyun bit her lip, with a hesitant expression on her face, she pulled Wang's sleeve and shook it lightly, quite coquettishly, "Mother, tell me about my cousin, I see that grandma especially values ​​her. Does her cousin have something special that we don't know about?"

"What's so special about it?"

Mrs. Wang couldn't help laughing, and gently followed the flowing sea in front of her daughter's forehead. After thinking for a while, she said slowly: "Huai Su lost her mother when she was young, so she must be calmer, but this girl is really Zaohui, um...is a bit different from Sister Yu."

"Oh?"

Du Yanyun raised her eyebrows slightly, and played with the twisted gold bracelet on her wrist with one hand, obviously not paying attention to her mother's words.

Anyway, she is still a child who is less than four years old, and it is enough for her family to take care of her on weekdays, but the grandmother's special attention to her still makes people feel a little uncomfortable in the bottom of my heart.

"Sister Yu was raised by me anyway," said Wang pondering, "everyone in the house dotes on her, but Huai Su is different in Xiao's family. The family doesn't care as much for her as we do."

Seeing Du Yanyun still puzzled, Mrs. Wang only patted her hand, and said softly: "Huaisu lost her mother, father... is also not a good person. She has a pitiful background, and she is sensible and well-behaved. Since your grandmother Tiao Ai, as a sister, you should love her a little more from now on, you know?"

Du Yanyun thought for a while, then nodded slowly, "Cousin is indeed a poor person!" After speaking, he sighed softly, looking like a little adult.

Seeing her eyes, Wang laughed softly, pulled her daughter into her arms for a long time to kiss her, and finally tidied her hair, looking at her daughter's delicate eyebrows, for some reason, the image of Gu Qingyang flashed in her mind .

Mrs. Wang couldn't help being moved in her heart, and looked at Du Yanyun carefully again and again, with a smile on her lips, "Our sister Yun is also a big girl!"

If we only talk about appearance and family background, Gu Qingyang and Du Yanyun are definitely compatible, and there is not much difference in age.

Although Mrs. Du told her not to think about it, the Wang family loves her daughter very much, and she wishes her daughter could be matched with the best man in the world. Now it seems that Gu Qingyang is acting more calmly and sophisticatedly, the key is that there is no Beijing The dandy of the middle child, he is humble and respectful, it is really good no matter how you look at it.

"Mother!"

Du Yanyun blushed slightly, and pulled Wang's sleeve to act coquettishly, and leaned gently on her shoulder, "No matter how my daughter grows up, she will still be my mother's caring little padded jacket!"

Mrs. Wang smiled, didn't make a sound, and said after a long while: "This time when I was returning to Bianjing, I met Jing Guogong's son."

Du Yanyun's body froze, knowing her mother, Mo Ruonu, she understood Wang's intentions.

Mrs. Wang didn't say anything, she gently stroked her daughter's back with one hand, and after her body softened again, she continued: "Duke Jing's fifth son, Gu Qinghuai, has always been on good terms with your second brother, I think Although Fifth Young Master Gu is a bit mischievous, his character is not bad, and his elder brother is even more polite and knowledgeable, he is a rare good boy!"
