Chapter 34 Brothers and Sisters
After Su Yiqing finished speaking, she was about to turn around and run away.
Su Jinxu said in a panic: "Jiujie, wait a minute." Then he carefully took out a small silk flower from his arms and glanced at Xin'er again.
Su Yiqing was frightened now. She really guessed it right. She couldn't just leave now, otherwise Su Jinxu would find someone else to talk nonsense, and Xin'er's life would really be lost.
Immediately afterwards, Su Jinxu held the silk flowers in front of her and stammered: "Sister Ninth, this flower is... for you."
"Why... why did you give it to me?" Su Yiqing also stammered, but don't say give her a flower, just ask her to give him the maid next to her. This silk flower looks so cheap.
The maids don’t even bother to take care of them.
Su Jinxu said nervously: "The day before yesterday, Yue Ming and I went shopping. He bought it for her sister. He said that my brother should give his sister a gift during the New Year... so I also bought one and gave it to you."
Su Yiqing breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that she was overthinking it. This moonlight was probably Su Jinxu's friend or servant. This silly brother just saw others trying to please his sister, so he felt that he should also buy one for his sister.
Thinking of this, Su Yiqing showed what she thought was the sweetest smile, took the slightly flattened silk flower with both hands, and said, "Thank you, fifth brother, I'm so happy."
Seeing that she was happy, Su Jinxu also showed a naive smile, and then said sheepishly: "Can Sister Ninth help me make a purse?"
"What?" Su Yiqing looked surprised again.
Seeing her surprised look, Su Jinxu hurriedly said: "Jiujie thinks it's troublesome, just forget it, I, I'm just talking casually?"
After saying that, Su Jinxu ran away quickly. It was rare for him to be so chubby and run so fast.
Su Yiqing felt really baffled. What kind of story was this?
At this time, Xin'er said: "Miss, please ask Mrs. Zhang. Mrs. Zhang is the lady who serves the fifth young master. She is responsible for taking care of the fifth young master's daily chores. She must know something."
Su Yiqing nodded: "Don't ask too obviously."
"This slave knows." After Xin'er said that, she went to find Mrs. Zhang.
I guess this is not a big deal, Xin'er found out about it soon.
In fact, it's really simple. The Song Daru whom Su Jinxu worships now has several disciples. One of them is Yue Ming, who is the best friend of Su Jinxu. Yue Ming's family is very ordinary. He has a younger sister at home, and he can't afford ready-made clothes on weekdays.
He had no money to go to a tailor shop to have his clothes made, so his mother and sister made everything he wore, as well as some food and other supplies.
Su Jinxu was very envious. In fact, it was not just Yueming. Many students who had sisters wore items that were made by their sisters or mothers, at least a pair of shoes and a purse. But Su Jinxu had never received a gift from a sister, not even a gift from a sister.
Mrs. Xu never made anything for him with her own hands.
Su Yiqing felt a little sad, maybe this was the so-called lack of family warmth.
Although Mrs. Xu also cares about her son, her method may be a bit harsh, and she will urge Su Jinxu to study and improve, etc. She is not very concerned about his mood. Of course, she has to manage a large family and she really doesn't have time.
The other sisters all have their own brothers, who would care about the inconspicuous and inept Su Jinxu.
Although she is not good at needlework, she only has a purse, so she can do it slowly. Anyway, Mrs. Cen also likes to let her do needlework, no matter what she does.
After going back, Su Yiqing immediately found a small piece of cyan satin, but she didn't know how to make a man's purse. Fortunately, it was not something worth keeping secret, so she asked Aunt Zhou.
Aunt Zhou also thought it was normal for her sister to make a purse for her brother, so she gave some advice.
Su Yiqing worked very carefully and sewed very carefully. It took five or six days to make a small purse. After it was finished, she found an opportunity and handed the purse to Su Jinxu.
Su Jinxu was as happy as anything. Not long after, on the Lantern Festival, he gave Su Yiqing a delicate little box made of wicker.
Su Yiqing was also very conscious and asked Xin'er to ask Madam Zhang for Su Jinxu's sole mold and make a pair of shoes for Su Jinxu.
In this way, the brothers and sisters go back and forth, and they have a bit of a brother-sister relationship with each other.
Su Yiqing was also very happy, feeling that if she suddenly disappeared that day, the person who would miss her the most in the house would be this honest-looking brother.
Winter turns to spring, and the calm days pass easily.
Su Yiqing is twelve years old.
There was nothing special about the little girl's birthday. I just made birthday noodles in the kitchen, and then Qu gave her a pair of lovely ruby earrings. Su Yihua gave her a handmade handkerchief.
The regretful sisters also presented handmade sachets and tassels.
The second and fourth bedrooms pretended not to know, so the wife gave her a piece of decent material to make clothes for her.
Mrs. Xu gave a green and transparent green bean jade pendant, which seemed to be valuable.
Su Jinxu gave him a handmade peach wood comb.
It seems that I have been doing it for a long time and Su Yiqing likes it very much.
I made clothes for Su Jinxu on his fifteenth birthday.
According to Mrs. Zhang, Su Jinxu treasures this dress and only wears it on important occasions.
In the summer, two special things happened in Yuanping's Mansion, which was slightly calm.
One thing is that the married eldest daughter Su Yirong gave birth to a big fat boy safely, which made Mrs. Qu very happy. In sharp contrast, the second daughter Su Yijuan still had no news about her belly, but the two aunts gave birth to a son and a daughter respectively, and
It is said that a first-in-law was also pregnant. The princess of the county naturally took the boy born to her aunt to raise her, but the girl had to be taken care of by Su Yijuan. In addition, the pregnant first-in-law also had to be taken care of by Su Yijuan. She couldn't get pregnant herself, so she had to help her aunt raise the child and she had to take care of it.
You can imagine how Su Yijuan's life was going for her pregnant wife. This time she didn't even have time to go back to her parents' home to cry. Mrs. Cen's intuition was very keen. As soon as she heard the news, she immediately called Ms. Jiang over and told her to warn Su Yijuan.
Take good care of the children and the roommate, otherwise if something happens, it will be catastrophic.
In another incident, Chen's maiden sister from the fourth bedroom came to seek refuge with her daughter Wei Zhen. Then for some reason, the sister hooked up with Mr. Su Si and climbed into bed.
Mrs. Cen became angry and wanted to drive the mother and daughter out, but Mrs. Chen knelt down with Mr. Su Si and begged for mercy, saying that her sister had no children and was kicked out by her husband's family after her husband died. It was very pitiful.
, please give me a way out.
It seemed as if Mrs. Cen drove them away to force their mother and daughter to die.
Mrs. Cen agreed with a sneer, but restricted the mother and daughter from going out to the courtyard of the four-bedroom house. Not only that, but Mrs. Chen also had to find her by herself or go back to her natal family, or marry someone and be raised by relatives.
Get that little Chen's sixteen-year-old daughter out within a month.
