Duanyan saw that Shen Ze couldn't help looking at the two pots of Chimonanthus praecox. She quickly came forward and said with a smile, "Miss Lin heard that my uncle is coming back these days. The day before yesterday, she sent someone to send these two pots of Chimonanthus praecox and some pots of orchids. There are four pots of orchids, two for each of the two. After a while, I might as well go back to my room and have a look. The flowers are really elegant. "

Shen Ze nodded and said to Shen Xi, "sister Xi, this will be your home in the future. I'll let my mother-in-law take you to the bedroom to have a look. If there's anything I don't like, just talk to my brother and he'll let someone clean it up for you." Then she said to mother Xu, "sister Xi is still young. Please bother her. If there's anything against your will, Mammy just opens her mouth. I have only one sister. I can't hurt her. " Xu's mother nodded and said, "don't worry. If there's something wrong with you, I'll mention it even if you don't say it."

Then Shen Ze sent a mother-in-law to take Shen Xi's master and servant back to his room, and asked his servants to send all kinds of local instruments they had brought back to Hou Fu, Ming He academy, Lin family and other relatives and friends one by one.

He just returned to his bedroom and saw a pot of orchids in bud on his desk and Kang Table. The light green petals showed a faint aroma, which made people relax a lot.

The servant had prepared hot water for many days, so Shen Ze took a hot bath to get rid of his fatigue.

After changing clean clothes, Duan Yan said, "I have some food in the kitchen. Do you want to use some?" Shen Ze Wen Yan nodded, "lunch did not eat well, let the kitchen get some light to Xi sister there, I used to use some with her." Duan Inkstone naturally nodded and went to the kitchen to explain.

Because it was cold outside, Shen Ze was strong and didn't dare to go out when his hair was still wet. He picked a book from the shelf and spent his time there.

At this time, the woman who sent things to the Lin family came back with two big burdens. She put the things on the table and said with a smile, "Mrs. Lin and Miss Lin are very happy to know that uncle is back safely. Miss Lin just made some clothes, shoes and socks for my uncle and our girls, and let the old slave bring them back. There are also several kinds of decorations for girls. Mrs. Lin also said that if you let the elder take the girl with you when you have time, you don't have to abide by the old conventions. "

Shen Ze nodded, "mom is working hard. Go down and have a rest." And to another young man Cheng Yan said, "it's cold, grab some copper money for my mother to drink."

Then I opened one of them, which was obviously a big dark gray burden for myself. I saw a beautiful blue plain Kesi crane cloak, a beautiful stone blue satin cotton padded gown, and a pair of thick soled sheepskin boots. Although he does not lack of clothes, but the taste of being concerned about is still in this cold weather to Shen Ze unspeakable warmth. The fatigue of these days seems to be cured in an instant.

Shen Ze, who has been warmed up, puts the crane cloak on his cotton padded robe, and then goes to the backyard with the things for Shen Xi in a happy mood.

Shen Ze's house was built by his grandfather several decades ago. Although it is also a three-way house, it is much larger than Lin's house. The first entrance is naturally the anteroom and garage, the horse horn, and the inverted seats and wing rooms where the male servants live. The second entrance is Shen Ze's study and two small guest houses. Shen Ze still lives in the study now. The third entrance is the residence of the women's dependents. Besides the main courtyard, there are three separate courtyards. Shen Xi lives in the biggest of the three yards.

Shen Xi just took a bath and changed into clean clothes. See elder brother to come, immediately smile to elder brother please. Brother and sister depend on each other these days. Naturally, they are very close. Shen Ze pinched his sister's red face and asked, "does sister Xi like this yard?"

Shen Xi quickly nodded, "I like it. The yard is so big and the room is warm. Just now, mother Xu said that the tree in the yard is a Begonia tree, and it will blossom when it is warm in spring. I like crabapple best

"Oh, so our sister Xi likes crabapple? It's easy to say. After the spring, my brother will find someone to plant a few more Begonia trees in the yard, OK Shen Ze asked. After listening to this, Shen Xi nodded busily, "OK, brother, you have to count your words." With a smile, Shen Ze pointed to the burden on the table, "when does my brother not mean what he says? By the way, what good things did your brother bring you? "

Shen Xi just saw the burden in her brother's hand, but she was too small to ask directly. When she saw her brother, she opened the burden with a smile. Inside were two exquisite coats and skirts, all embroidered with exquisite patterns. They are all cherry grass, green lotus and other colors. They are not too plain. They can be worn when you go out to meet customers. In addition, there is an AI green feather and satin cape with rabbit hair edge and a pair of thick soled sheepskin boots, which are the same leather as Shen Ze's boots. In addition, there is a flat brocade box with a silver inlaid jade collar, a pair of silver silk butterfly and a pair of small Hetian jade bracelets. All of them are suitable for Shen Xi's age girls, and the color is just in line with her present status of filial piety.

Xu's mother looked at these things, but she could not help but deepen her favor for leisurely. It seems that the future grandmother is really a safe and fastidious person.

After a while, the kitchen sent several small dishes and a stewed rotten Eucommia chicken soup. The chicken soup was simmered slowly with slow fire. The chicken had been stewed crispy, and the soup was fresh and delicious. Shen Ze drank two bowls at a time, looked up and saw that Shen Xi didn't move the chicken soup in the bowl, so he couldn't help asking, "why don't sister Xi drink it? Don't you like it? "

Most children like to eat meat, and sister Xi is no exception. She sniffed the delicious chicken soup, swallowed her saliva and shook her head. "I like it, but I want to be filial."

Hearing this, Shen Ze was stunned and then said, "it's OK. It's time for you to grow up. You can't lose your nutrition. Besides, there is no meat in the soup. It's OK to drink some. If you don't believe it, ask mammy Wang. " Then he winked at mammy Wang.

Wang mammy also can't bear to let Xi elder sister's so big child three years don't eat meat, horizontal and vertical already passed hot filial piety, as long as the big face is not bad, it's OK. So he said to Shen Xi, "it's OK, sister Xi. Is there any outsider here? It's OK for you to drink this soup. Even if your mother knows about it underground, she likes to see you eat and dress well. " Smell speech, Shen Xi this just happily drank the soup in the bowl.

After they had enough to eat, they just cleaned up the table. The woman who went to the Marquis's house to deliver things came in and said, "madam, I've received the things from my uncle. I'm very polite. She wants to see our girl, and let me take her with me tomorrow. She'll be waiting in the house. "

Shen Ze nodded and let her go down.
