Chapter 746 Auntie Xu's family
Qin Yao came to the Women's Academy. The time was just right, and the bell rang just in time for the end of get out of class in the garden.
There were many carriages parked outside the door, as well as maids and mothers from various families who came to pick up people.
These families don't look like common people. Qin Yao had noticed it when he sent Siniang to the Women's Garden before. He didn't know who opened the Women's Garden and could have such appeal.
In the past, Qin Yao had guessed that the person behind the scenes was the eldest princess. After all, Mu Ling had appeared here before and seemed to be very familiar with the dean.
But now after hearing Siniang talk more about her college affairs, this guess has been overturned.
Before the gate of the courtyard was opened, the crowd had already gathered in front of the gate. Qin Yao looked at this scene and couldn't help but smile. Isn't this just like the parents who come to pick up students at the gate of a modern primary school.
There is only one thing missing. There are no snack stalls or stationery shops outside the Women's Garden that attract primary school students.
The Imperial College is next door, and the atmosphere is relatively serious.
The students who study in the Women's Garden also have children in their teens, and they can go home by themselves without their parents picking them up.
You can see patrolling female soldiers in military uniforms everywhere on the streets. The security at the foot of the Imperial City is still very good. There is no need to worry about the appearance of prostitutes or prostitutes.
There were not too many people waiting outside the gate. Qin Yao found a shaded spot at the foot of the wall outside the main gate, folding her arms and waiting for her little girl to appear. She was surprised to find herself and swooped over.
The large courtyard door slowly opened, and the wooden shaft turned making a tooth-aching sound.
The crowd waiting outside the door became excited.
Soon, the sounds of girls playing were heard, and they came out in twos and threes, dragging the magical book box.
Every family who came to pick someone up immediately raised their hands to call for someone, and in the blink of an eye, most of the people waiting in front of the door were gone.
"Hahaha" loud laughter came from inside. Qin Yao's ears twitched. She looked up and saw that her fourth mother was holding her bookcase in one hand and holding another fair and tender girl about the same age as her in the other hand. Come out of the garden.
The two of them didn't know what they said, but the other party laughed so happily that their molars were visible.
Especially for Siniang, when her teeth are changing, she can see a small black hole when she smiles.
The girl was picked up. As soon as she left the garden, a tall nanny wearing plain brown clothes greeted her with a smile and blessed the fair girl.
As soon as the two girls saw her, they shouted in surprise: "Aunt Jade!"
It seems that Siniang also knows each other.
“Where is my aunt?” The girl immediately started to look around in front of the door, her eyes brightening.
Hearing the name "aunt, grandma," Qin Yao probably guessed who it was.
This should be Xu Jiajia, the good friend that Siniang said she didn't know each other.
Looks like her aunt who loved her came to pick her up from school again.
Children who are growing up really look different every day. Last time, she remembered that this little girl was still tall and thin, but after a few months, she became much rounder, looking white and tender, like glutinous rice dumplings.
However, her fourth mother absorbs nutrients well. Xu Jiajia is one or two years older than her, but they are about the same height.
Qin Yao is secretly satisfied, the little girl will definitely grow taller than her in the future.
“Aniang!”
One second, Siniang was envious of Xu Jiajia's family coming to pick her up. The next second, she was surprised to find Qin Yao standing in the shade in the corner across the street. She was extremely pleasantly surprised.
Qin Yao waved and walked out from under the wall.
Si Niang was so happy that she almost jumped up and said to Xu Jiajia: "My grandma is here to pick me up!"
He dragged his book box and ran towards Qin Yao in the middle of the street. “Auntie, why are you here?” Siniang was so happy that she grabbed Qin Yao's hand and asked while shaking it.
The bookcases were all put aside, but they did not forget to turn around and show off proudly to Xu Jiajia.
But Xu Jiajia would not envy her today. The little girl made a face and followed Aunt Yu who came to pick her up into a red-gold carriage parked on the roadside.
They all got in, and then poked their heads out and waved goodbye to Siniang.
Si Niang raised her hand to respond. She watched Xu Jiajia get into the carriage and never come out again. She raised her head and looked at Qin Yao. Both mother and daughter smiled.
“Let's go.” Qin Yao picked up the forgotten book box, holding the box with one hand and being held by Siniang in the other.
Si Niang said as she walked: "I am so happy today. It is the happiest day!"
The golden carriage on the other side of the street started to move towards the main street.
Qin Yao asked her daughter cooperatively: "Why are you the happiest today?"
On the other hand, he instinctively observed the carriage running parallel to him on the other side of the street.
The cart is not big, and is pulled by a horse. The wheels are oxidized bronze, and the axle is engraved with a family emblem in a variant of the Chinese character "Xu".
The driver was driving the carriage. Aunt Yu was sitting on the shaft of the carriage and did not get into the carriage. From time to time, the conversation between an old man and a young man could be heard in the carriage.
Qin Yao suddenly raised his head and looked around. On both sides of the narrow street were official residences. The houses were connected to each other with almost no separation, and the roofs were completely connected to each other.
There are archways at the front and rear entrances of Fangshi, and there is an overpass above which can be used by street guards.
The wind blew through the leaves on the roadside, making a rustling sound. Qin Yao's ears moved and she heard some different sounds in the wind.
“A'niang?” Si Niang didn't wait for Qin Yao's response for a long time, so she called her softly, “A'niang, do you want meat buns?”
Qin Yao looked down and saw Siniang pointing to the bun shop in front of her and smiling sheepishly. It was obvious that she was greedy.
“Go and buy it.” Qin Yao said with a smile.
Although there are people at home who make meat buns that are excellent, for children, where can they compare to the roadside snack stalls at home?
As soon as Si Niang was happy, she knew that A Niang would agree!
Shaking her head and rejecting the coin handed over by Qin Yao, the little girl patted her pocket to show that she had money, let go of her hand, ran to the meat bun shop, and lined up skillfully.
Qin Yao didn't even need to guess, she knew that on the way home from school, the little girl frequently visited this meat bun shop.
This store is doing very well, and there are still people queuing up. I guess it tastes good.
As if by accident, Qin Yao raised her head and scanned the surrounding eaves again. The two people in the dark seemed to have stopped.
Looking across the street, the Xu family's carriage also stopped.
Qin Yao has good ears and clearly heard Xu Jiajia's coquettish question coming from the carriage:
“Auntie, let's go buy meat buns for Aunt Linwei? Aunt Linwei likes meat buns the most. The buns here are so delicious, she will definitely like them!”
There was a cold and mute voice from an older woman inside: "I won't buy it, she went back to her hometown to visit relatives."
"Huh?" Xu Jiajia obviously didn't expect to get this answer, and she was probably stunned for a moment.
Her aunt laughed softly and ordered Aunt Yu outside the car: "Go and buy two meat buns for Jiajia."
Xu Jiajia immediately turned from sadness to joy and shouted happily: "Aunt Yu, I want three!"
Aunt Yu shook her head and laughed, said "Hey", got out of the car and went to the bun shop to queue up to buy meat buns.
Si Niang has already made the purchase, and the two sides just missed each other.
