Chapter 52 The Three Sisters of the Sun Family
Sun Yuanying's eyes were red and swollen, with blood in her eyes and a tired expression. Gu Tan had fallen asleep beside her, with tears on her face. Seeing Sun Shao coming out of the backyard with a heavy face, Sun Yuanying looked at Sun Shao with some worry. His dry lips were open, but there was no sound.
"Simi, you're too tired. You'd better go to bed early." Sun Shao frowned and said with concern.
"I'm fine." Sun Yuanying's voice was hoarse and sounded as uncomfortable as a knife. She glanced at the backyard and her eyes were uneasy: "What did Jia Weng say to you?"
Sun Shao grinned and shook his head: "I didn't say anything."
The easier he spoke, the more worried Sun Yuanying was. Gu Yong is in a particularly bad mood these days. Although he is extremely deep in the city and does not show his joy and anger, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be unable to control his emotions when he sees that the people of the Sun family. Sun Shao is also an anxious surname. Now it is not easy to get angry in front of him, but it is even more uncomfortable to hold it in his heart. Their parents died early. In a sense, Sun Yuanying regarded Sun Shao as a half-brother. Seeing that Sun Shao was uncomfortable, she was also very upset.
"It's really okay." Seeing the look on Sun Yuanying's face and knowing that she didn't believe it, Sun Shao repeated a few words that Gu Yong said to him just now. Sun Yuanying didn't believe it. She looked at Sun Shao suspiciously: "Is that true?"
"It's true."
"That couldn't be better." Sun Yuanying breathed a sigh of relief, and his straight body also relaxed. He bowed slightly on his back, and his expression was a little confused. Neither of them spoke, and there was only Gu Tan's gentle snoring in the room. Sun Shao was about to get up and leave. There was a messy sound of footsteps outside, and then two sharp figures appeared at the door.
"Big sister." They shouted, and then a crisp voice screamed, "Ah, Aman, you're here too."
Sun Shao looked up and smiled. It was the second sister Sun Yuying and the third sister Sun Xiuying. Sun Yuying is 25 years old this year. She is Zhu Ji's wife. Over the years, she has lived a good life. Her face is round and rich. When she saw her eldest sister Sun Yuanying, her eyes turned red. She sat up to Sun Yuanying. Before she could speak, tears overflowed her eyes. Sun Xiuying is only three years older than Sun Shao. She is small and one head smaller than Sun Shao, but she likes to pretend to be an adult in front of Sun Shao. When she is at home, she is the closest to Sun Shao. After marrying Lu Xun a few years ago, she rarely returned to Wu County. Suddenly, when she saw Sun Shao, she shouted happily. Even her eldest sister Sun Yuanying forgot and rushed up. He grabbed Sun Shao's ear as he did when he was at home before and scolded, "Okay, you Man. When you come to Jianye, you won't go to see the third sister."
"Third sister..." Sun Shao glanced at her eldest sister in embarrassment. Only then did she remember what she did. She reluctantly let go of Sun Shao's ear, snuggled to the other side of Sun Yuanying, and said sadly, "Big sister, you have suffered."
"Alas--" Sun Yuanying smiled and put his hand around Sun Xiuying: "Life and death are fate, this is my life."
The three sisters were silent when they heard it. Only Sun Shao was not as sad as them. On the one hand, he was no longer the master. On the other hand, even if he was the master, he did not have a deep impression of Sun Ce and the Lv family. In his memory, the image of Sun Ce and the Lv family was far less vivid as the bridge. Seeing that the three sister were sad, he could only do it silently. Sun Yuanying couldn't help but be a little angry when she saw it.
"Aman, how have you been recently?"
"Good." Sun Shao didn't care and answered casually. Sun Xiuying suddenly heard something wrong in her eldest sister's voice and quickly glanced at Sun Shao, but she didn't expect that the brother in front of her was not the original brother at all. She didn't understand her reminder at all, but just looked at her blankly. Sun Yuanying was angry and stared at Sun Shao: "Do you remember your mother's last name?"
No matter how stupid Sun Shao was, he heard something wrong. He glanced at the three of his sister and smiled awkwardly: "How can you not remember, it's just... it's just..."
"What is it just?" Sun Yuanying looked at him angrily and swallowed it again. He was silent for a while and said, "Aman, come to Jianye. We are all in Jianye, and it will be more convenient to walk in the future."
"Yes, Ah Man, you can also come to Jianye." Sun Xiuying shouted excitedly.
"What am I doing here?" Sun Shao sneered and disdained: "I'm guarding the grave in Wu County, and I don't have to be seen in Jianye. You are beautiful. What about me? Will you come to the house of the three of you every day to eat and drink? You are not afraid of shame, but I am afraid of shame. After saying that, he got up and hurriedly said hello and walked away. The three Sun sisters looked at each other in front of each other. They were so shocked by Sun Shao's sudden anger that they couldn't speak. They looked at each other for a long time. Sun Yuying said helplessly, "A Man is still like that. He gets angry easily."
"It's not his fault." Sun Xiuying defended for Sun Shao: "Uncle is too biased. So many people who are younger than A Man have become officials, but A Man has no chance. Anyone else will feel uncomfortable. A Man wanted to lead the army like A Wong since he was a child. When he was a child, his uncle said that he would wait until he grew up. He finally grew up and changed to other reasons. It's no wonder he was not angry.
Sun Yuanying glanced at his indignant third sister and said lightly, "Do you mean A Man or the one in your family?"
Sun Yuying curled her lips and said, "Sister, you are wrong to blame the third sister. Our brother-in-law is now very strong, but my uncle is very happy. Now he is the right governor. What can the third sister have to complain about?"
"Second sister, don't just talk about me." Sun Xiuying laughed and retorted, "My sister-in-law is also a lieutenant. He is a close minister around my uncle, which is not worse than Bo Yan..." Half of her words, she remembered that the most powerful eldest sister-in-law had just passed away. The eldest sister was now the sadd time. It seemed inappropriate for the two of them to quarrel here, so she hurriedly took the back. He swallowed the words again, put away his smile, and said carefully, "Big sister."
"Alas--" Sun Yuanying sighed and looked at the two of them reproachfully and said, "Let you discuss helping A Man. You are fine. You only care about showing off your little words. No wonder A Man is not happy."
Sun Yuying lowered her head and said, "Sir, it's not that we don't work hard. We really can't work hard. This time, A Man made a new wine, but didn't my father-in-law send it? My uncle is still a little unsies about this.
"You all made a mistake." Sun Yuanying shook her head with a wry smile: "It's not that my uncle doesn't let A Man be an official now, but that A Man doesn't want to come to Jianye."
Sun Yuying and Sun Xiuying were stunned: "Is there such a thing?"
There were too many people in Gu's house. Sun Shao looked dizzy. The next morning, he took Dunwu and Shuai out of the door and prepared to stroll around Jianye City to see what the future ancient capital of the Six Dynasties would look like*. The master and servants had just left the door and looked around. A young man dressed as a servant came over with a smile on his face. He saluted Sun Shao: "Excuse me, sir, is Sun Shaojun?"
Sun Shao was stunned and looked at the man: "Who are you?"
The man smiled and said, "The name is not enough. My master's surname is Lv Yuyi. He is the school scholar beside the Supreme. At this moment, he went in to worship Gu Jun, and came out to thank Sun Jun for a moment. Please wait for a moment.
Lv Yi? Sun Shao and Dunwu looked at each other and smiled.
"I dare not, I'll wait for Lv Jun here." Sun Shao said with a gentle smile. The man was also very happy to see Sun Shao's kind face. He thanked him again and turned around and left. Shuai Zeng was a little unhappy and muttered, "Why does the young master have to communicate with such a villain?"
"You know nothing." Dunwu stared at him and turned his head to one side proudly.
