Chapter 3 The Second Fatty Miss
Chapter 3 Fatty Second Miss
Not long after, Zhang Anchu packed up, ate a hot steamed bun and a bowl of porridge, and then went out to pay his respects.
The snow on the road has been cleared, but there are still many servants cleaning the snow outside the road. Everyone is very busy.
The wet nurse and Siyu followed, worried that Zhang Anchu would accidentally fall.
At this time, Zhang Anchu saw that the lake had frozen, so he stopped and looked at it for a while.
"Who is that?" Teacher Shen saw a little girl not far away, wearing a thick pink cloak. Her skin seemed to be glowing under the sun. Most importantly, her facial features were exquisitely carved, and she was a beauty. embryo.
"She is the Third Miss, Aunt Bai's daughter. Mrs. Hou means that if you want to learn dance, the most suitable one is the Third Miss." Shen Jiaoxi was followed by Mrs. Hou's eldest maid Jingdan. She asked, and Jingdan said Also answered.
"Indeed, he is a good candidate for learning dance." Teacher Shen nodded with satisfaction. She had already recognized him just after seeing him for the first time.
Zhang Anchu just watched for a while. She didn't want to be late and continued walking to Mrs. Hou's residence.
When they arrived at the place, Mrs. Hou's maid led Zhang Anchu in. The charcoal fire in the room was very hot and the wet nurse took off her cloak, and Zhang Anchu wanted to pay her respects to Mrs. Hou.
"An Chu wishes my mother well."
Mrs. Hou nodded and said with a satisfied smile: "You are the first one here. Get up quickly and find a place to sit down. Wait for your brother and sister to come over."
"Yes." Zhang Anchu stood up obediently, and Aunt Bai waved to her to sit next to her.
Not long after, the eldest son Zhang Hongye and the second son Zhang Hongda also arrived. However, because he still had to go to the school, he only came to say hello, so he was allowed to leave.
The two gentlemen have just left, and the eldest lady Zhang Anxian has also arrived.
Zhang Anxian is seven years old this year. She is a legitimate daughter, but she doesn't have the airs of a legitimate daughter. Zhang Anchu always likes to get close to her, because in her heart, Zhang Anxian is the most gentle and will read some short stories to her from time to time.
"An Xian greets mother." Zhang Anxian saluted and slowly raised her head.
"An Xian..." When Mrs. Hou thought of her good daughter who was about to be sent to the palace to endure hardships, she felt sad in her heart.
He calmed down and said, "Sit down."
When Zhang Anchu heard Mrs. Hou asking her sister to sit down, he quickly greeted her and asked her to sit next to him.
But Zhang Anxian shook her head and refused, went to sit next to Mrs. Hou.
Zhang Anchu was a little disappointed and didn't understand why her sister wasn't as usual.
However, her attention was soon diverted by others.
Several aunts in the room saw Mrs. Hou's state just now, as if there was something they didn't know about.
At this moment, Aunt Jiang asked in confusion: "Madam, why are you in a bad mood when you see the eldest lady here?"
Aunt Jiang was Mrs. Hou's maid. After Mrs. Hou gave birth to a son and a daughter, she gave birth to the second young lady Zhang Anyi. She and Zhang Anchu were born in the same year. They were just three months old in the morning and they were elder sisters. Please say hello today. She hasn't arrived yet, so she will definitely be late again. She has been late not once or twice.
But Mrs. Hou didn't mind either, so no one said anything.
"The palace has to choose a reading companion for the princess, and the Marquis plans to send Zhang Anxian to the palace to accompany her, so she feels sad." Mrs. Hou said while stroking Zhang Anxian's back and wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
Zhang Anxian also knew about it, but she was already going to bed when she found out. She couldn't say that she was willing or unwilling in her heart. She just followed her parents' arrangements.
However, I didn't sleep well all night. After all, I had to leave home and my parents, and I didn't know what would happen.
"Madam, this is a good thing. I can be a companion to the princess, which is something no one else can ask for!" Aunt Yun said with relief, but there was still a bit of contempt in her heart. She couldn't understand such a good thing, why should she cry?
Chirping.
If she has a daughter who enters the palace to be a bridesmaid to the princess, she will jump up with joy and beat gongs and drums to send her daughter into the palace.
It's a pity that she only has one unsatisfactory son who doesn't study well and loves to fight.
Not long ago, in the book school, I was beaten with a dagger made of paper and my head was bloody.
Zhang Anchu didn't know what companion reading was and what palace was, but she understood that her sister was leaving home. She looked at Zhang Anxian with a sad look on her face, so she thought about saying hello and going to find her later, fearing that she would not see her again in the future.
If not, we should spend more time together as soon as possible.
"I should be happy, but I just can't bear to be separated." Mrs. Hou nodded lightly. She didn't expect others to feel the same way as her. She forced a smile and asked Aunt Song: "How is Anpan today?"
"Miss Fourth was born weak and needs to be raised carefully." Aunt Song quickly stood up and replied, cautiously, for fear of offending the mistress of the house.
Mrs. Hou frowned slightly. She found Aunt Song the most unhappy. She seemed very well-behaved, but she always looked like she was bullying her and waved her hand to let her sit down.
At this time, Aunt Bai was a little worried that Mrs. Hou would ask about the Third Young Master Zhang Hongze, so she tried her best to make herself invisible.
In the past, Mrs. Hou would always ask when greeting her, has the Third Young Master opened his mouth to speak?
She replied again and again without speaking...
Now, she is already afraid of Mrs. Hou's questions. She is afraid of being laughed at by others. It seems that she is being publicly executed every day.
Zhang Anchu, who was next to her, felt Aunt Bai's hands trembling. He put his little hand on hers and whispered, "Auntie, let me warm you up."
Aunt Bai was distracted by Zhang Anchu, and her heart warmed, but she still couldn't help but frown.
Ever since Zhang Hongze was neither deaf nor mute, but could not speak, the Marquis rarely came to see her. It was difficult to have another good son, so having a daughter was relatively easy.
It's just that Zhang Anchu is too well-behaved and worry-free. In this Marquis Mansion, it's as if he doesn't exist.
"Why hasn't this second young lady come yet? Could it be that she hasn't gotten up again?" Aunt Yun glanced at Aunt Jiang and asked. She was always the last to arrive. If she had arrived on time, she should have gone back long ago and could still have another nap.
.
"I'm coming, I'm coming!" Zhang Anyi's voice sounded from outside the door, and she ran in panting.
"Mom, I'm sorry, An Yi got up late again today. It's mainly because it's too cold today and the bed is very warm!" Zhang Anyi said a lot of reasons in one breath. The plump face and chubby body couldn't be called fun.
.
"Anyi, this is all your reason. Why don't you blame the sun for rising too early?" Aunt Jiang said a little annoyed.
Her daughter is not worry-free at all. She was born the same year as Aunt Bai's daughter Zhang Anchu, and she is three months older than Zhang Anchu. However, her personality is too out-of-touch, her appearance is not as good-looking as others, she eats so fat, and she is lazy. She doesn't know what to do.
What to do.
