"Do you think my long house will bring you the glory of your third house?" Lin asked with a stern look on his face.

"My sister-in-law misunderstood. I don't mean that. My sister-in-law knows that my mother's family is also in Jindu, so she wants to give two New Year gifts. My mother-in-law's family cannot favor one or the other, but the sister-in-law knows what the situation is now. The third wife dare not compare with the eldest wife this year. We cannot rely on our young age to ask our elder brother and sister-in-law to supplement us, so it's better to prepare the New Year gifts each." Tao explained with a smile. Seeing Lin like that, Tao knew that her prevention was correct.

Lin narrowed his eyes slightly, and the third brother and sister were more capable and versatile.

At this time, Shen Bomi brothers came in with Chen Danxia, ​​first paying respects to Lin, and then giving greetings to the two cousins.

"Mom, my sister hasn't finished drinking milk." Shen Baiyu immediately complained.

Chen Danxia pouted and defended: "I just didn't drink it at all. You have half a bowl of pumpkin porridge."

"Yu'er, why don't you finish the porridge?" Tao asked with a stern face.

Shen Baiyu stammered and couldn't answer. Chen Danxia raised his eyebrows proudly. The fool third brother, he had a lot of handles and dared to sue her. Shen Baimi looked at Shen Baiyu, chuckled and shook his head, his silly brother.

The maid followed the three of them and came in to report: "Madam, Master Cheng Er and Master Cheng San are here."

Chen Danxia snorted, "Why is Cheng Xiaopang coming again?" The Trojan horse has been riding for half a month, why isn't this kid getting tired of it?

"Xiaojiu, why are you still calling Cheng Xiaopang?" Tao asked with a smile.

"He said first and didn't keep his word." Chen Danxia shouted angrily. Don't think she didn't know. Cheng Qing called her little fat girl behind her back.

Tao smiled and said, "Yaoer, Qier, you go to the back of the screen to avoid it."

Chen Danyao is an eleven-year-old girl, and Chen Danqi is over nine years old. Although Cheng Qi is only over six years old, his second brother Cheng Jue is over twelve years old. There are great defenses between men and women, and strangers do not meet each other.

As soon as the two sisters stood behind the screen, the Cheng brothers came in. Cheng Jue wore a blue headscarf on his head and a light blue straight robe. He was tall and tall, which formed a sharp contrast with the short and fat Cheng Ju. Against the backdrop of Cheng Ju, he seemed even more handsome and elegant.

The elegant young man was carrying a bamboo basket in his hand, which contained orange tangerines. "Cheng Jue had met Aunt Tao and greeted Aunt Tao." Cheng Jue also followed him and saluted the Tao in a similar manner.

"Two nephews, please get up quickly, there is no need to be too polite." Tao smiled and bent down to help Cheng Yu up.

"Little Sister Jiu, this is for you." Cheng Jue handed over the bamboo basket and smiled gently.

"Thank you, Brother Cheng." Chen Danxia smiled sweetly.

"Hey, little...nine sister." Cheng Yu's mouth shape was a fat character, but it was changed to nine characters at the edge of his mouth, "This tangerine was sent by me and my second brother, and you should also thank me."

"Thank you, Brother Cheng Xiao..." Chen Fanxia paused deliberately and shouted, "She can follow the same thing."

"You want to call me Cheng Xiaopang, right?" Cheng Xi asked glaring at her.

"No." Chen Danxia denied it, picked up a tangerine and handed it to Cheng Jue, "Second Brother Cheng."

"I will peel it, I will help you peel it." Cheng Xu volunteered.

"No, I want Brother Cheng to peel it off." Chen Danxia did not accept his kindness.

Cheng Yan pouted in grievance.

Tao smiled and touched his head, "Be good, go ride a Trojan horse."

Cheng Xi immediately fell in love again, "Aunt Tao, I'll go ride a Trojan horse first." He often came and went, without anyone paying attention, and he could find a place by himself.

Cheng Jue peeled off the tangerine peel, broke it into a petal and handed it to Chen Danxia. His eyes faintly swept across the silk-faced embroidered screen. He could vaguely see someone behind the screen, and he also noticed that the person behind the screen was lying in the gap of the screen and looking outside.

Although Cheng Jue has not come to the Shen family many times, he knows a little about the matter of the Shen family. He knows that Tao does not like those concubines and will not let the concubines stay in the main courtyard. So who will be behind the screen? Cheng Jue's eyes fell on Lin and smiled and said, "It turns out that Aunt Tao has guests here, so it's rude."

"This is my husband's sister-in-law. This is the second boy from the Cheng family next door." Tao said with a smile.

When Cheng Jue heard this, he understood Lin's identity, stood up and saluted, "Cheng Jue has met Mrs. Shen."

Lin looked up and down at Cheng Jue and asked with a smile: "Young Master Cheng Second, you don't have to be too polite. You are such a handsome man. Is this year a Gui Geng?"

Tao frowned slightly. What was the look of Cheng Jue looking at him? He asked him so suddenly what age he wanted to do? "Brother Jue, Xiao Jiuer likes to eat these tangerines. You can thank your mother for me when you go back."

"Aunt Tao, then Cheng Jue will take his leave first." Cheng Jue understood Tao's meaning and immediately resigned.

"Mian'er, Yu'er will send you Brother Cheng out." The Tao family was older than Cheng Jue and a female family member, so it was the most appropriate to let the brothers Shen Bomi see you off.

Brother Shen Bomi acted according to his words and sent Cheng Jue out. Chen Danxia swallowed the tangerine in his mouth and said, "Brother Cheng is walking slowly."

Cheng Jue turned around and smiled at her, as bright as the sun. Sister Chen Danyao walked out from behind the screen. Chen Danyao's pretty face turned slightly red, and a smile was on her lips. However, Lin's mind was placed elsewhere and did not notice her strangeness.

Lin and Tao were entangled with each other for a long time, but Tao insisted on preparing their own New Year ceremony and said that they would not interfere with the eldest son. Lin did not achieve his goal and was in a bad mood, so he left angrily with his two daughters.

Zhaocai sent off the Lin family and daughter, turned around and came back, looked at Chen Danxia who was eating tangerines, and said, "Madam, the eldest girl may come again tomorrow."

Tao asked in surprise: "What did she say when she left?" Chen Danyao and her aunt were not intimate at all. What would they do when they came here tomorrow?

"The eldest girl didn't say anything when she left, but when Master Cheng was there just now, she lay on the screen and peeked at Master Cheng's second." Zhaocai reported truthfully.

Chen Danxia stopped chewing in surprise. My cousin is too precocious!

Tao recalled the appearance when Chen Danyao came out from behind the screen, and frowned. If Chen Danyao had such thoughts, should she stop it or fulfill her wish?

Tao thought about it all night and decided to stop her. The matter of Chen Danyao has only faded in recent years. If something happened to Chen Danyao again, don’t want the reputation of the Shen family’s daughter. Tao can ignore other girls, but her little Jiuer cannot be hurt at all, so she will never let Chen Danyao take a wrong step.

The next day, when Chen Danyao brought her maid over, Tao did not ask her what was wrong with her coming, "Come on, Tiao'er, come to the door for guests, you can accompany your elder sister."

"Yes, mother." Chen Danhui and Shen Dantiao responded with kneeling.

Not only did the Tao ask the two concubines to accompany Chen Danyao, but he also asked someone to guard the side door leading to the Cheng family and prevent her from going over. Because of proper precautions, Chen Danyao has never been able to go through the side door. She originally wanted to go over with Shen Baimi's brothers. Shen Baimi said in a serious manner: "Big sister, my third brother and I went to study with Old Master Shen. We were in the front yard, and there were men in and out of the outside world. It was not convenient for you, a woman in the inner house, to go over."
