Chapter 1293
"Master, you're awake!" Just when Erfu was hiding in the bed curtain, avoiding the eyes of the palace maid beside her, holding her head and worrying, Qinglan's soft and shy voice came from the door, and at the same time, the sound of the blue yarn cabinet opening and closing was also heard.
Dare to love last night, it was Qinglan, the girl, who kept vigil in the upper room.
Qinglan, this girl is good at everything, has a good personality, good appearance, and good massage skills, the only drawback is that she is too well-behaved.
These big palace maids have been accustomed to not leaning on the door of the bedroom to keep vigil and listen to the rules of the night, but Qinglan refuses to do it, as long as she keeps vigil, the custody is to stay outside the blue gauze cupboard all night, which is also due to the warm weather, otherwise this night will be guarded, there is a futon under the body, and it is also a backache and leg cramps are uncomfortable......
Pressing down on the messy thoughts in her mind, Erf lifted the thin quilt on her body and reached out to lift the curtain.
She smiled lightly at Qinglan, who had already come to the bedside to serve, and said softly, "What time is it now?"
"It's just the beginning of the hour. Qinglan replied softly as she grabbed the curtain of the bed.
"Let someone outside bring hot water. Hearing this, Erfu bowed slightly, and as he spoke, he had already pulled his shoes, left the comfortable bed, and walked towards the clean room, "I have to get up early today to wash and prepare, and my in-laws Fujin will come over as a guest, I can't make people think that we are negligent and neglectful of others by virtue of our identity, you will hand over these errands in the house to Shiqing and them in a while, go to the dining room and keep an eye on them, and let those chefs use all their skills......"
As he spoke, Erfu's people had already lowered their heads and washed their faces with the water in the copper basin.
Although she has been living in Times for more than ten years, she is still not used to the feeling of wiping her face with a wet handkerchief.
As Erfu began to wash his face, Qinglan tidied up the bed that Erfu had slept on, and hurried over to prepare some of the guys that Erfu would bathe later.
After a while, the petals, perfume, bathrobes and other things that Erfu would use for bathing were neatly arranged.
"Master, the slave and maid will serve you breakfast first. Qing Lan prepared this, turned to Erfu, who was already planning to undress and wash, and whispered a suggestion.
Hearing this, Erf nodded slightly, stopped what he was doing, and walked outside.
Breakfast was also set.
Shiqing personally took it from the dining room.
If you don't eat carefully, you won't be able to.
Erfu drank two sips of warm longan barley porridge, listened to the movement in the clean room, and commanded in a low voice: "Qinglan, you go over and take a look, don't let people take advantage of the opportunity to spoil it." ”
Originally, there was no need for this, but I couldn't stand the fact that many palace maids were newly seconded from the Ministry of Internal Affairs these days.
The rules and etiquette of these palace maids are not bad everywhere, and the only thing that makes people feel uneasy is that they are afraid that there is another master behind them.
Fortunately, after the day when Mo Yaqi returned to the door in the third dynasty, these palace maids should go back and forth from where, the garden is bigger, but there is no need for so many palace maids to serve, and it is necessary to add palace maids and servants, and they can't leave so many people who don't know the roots so casually, and Erfu doesn't plan to ask someone from the Internal Affairs Office to come over to serve, these palace maids from the Eight Banners are all excellent, but they are all arrogant masters, so they have their own little abacus in their hearts.
But to talk about this now is a bit of a stretch.
Erfu took the porridge bowl, ate a few pieces of dim sum, drank another cup of warm tea, put down the chopsticks and went to wash.
Here, Erf was busy washing up and grooming to welcome her new relatives to the house.
The Hitara Clan's mansion is also a mess.
Although it is the second son to marry a wife, the process that should be prepared is also indispensable, and even more solemn and cumbersome, who makes the new daughter-in-law a royal character, or a high-powered prince from Prince Yong's mansion, you can't ignore it, and you can't be cautious.
It was not long in the morning that Fu Tai and his Fujin Ma Jia clan, his eldest son Ah Chang'a and his Fujin Tatara clan all got up.
Not only that, but several clan elders and Fujin of the Hitara clan also arrived.
Ma Jiashi looked at the meeting gift that had been prepared beside him, and then looked at the gilded invitation on the left hand, and said quietly: "What does this Prince Yong Fujin think, knowing that the new daughter-in-law is going to worship her ancestors and recognize her relatives the next day after entering the door, and many things are to be presided over by my mother-in-law, and she also sent such an invitation, isn't this intended to cause trouble for me?"
"Then why didn't you refuse earlier!" asked Futai, who had already changed into his robe, with a smile.
"I have to dare, that is, we are married to Prince Yong's mansion, but Prince Yong's Fujin is the prince Fujin, and it is easy to refuse, if that person misunderstands, don't we get married and become enemies, then you want to use this to push Achang A into the Royal Forest Army, isn't it completely ruined!" Ma Jiashi glared at Futai unhappily and said coldly.
Futai smiled again and continued: "Then I have to work hard to Fujin."
But I don't think Prince Yong Fujin is the kind of person who cares too much about rules and etiquette, don't be too nervous, maybe there is something good to find you, I heard earlier that Fujin is the best at managing money and managing money, maybe I think you fit your eyes and want to pull you along!"
After saying that, he walked out with a smile.
Futai looked at the big red silk flowers that had not been removed everywhere under the corridor, and a trace of smug joy flashed in his eyes, don't look at the weakening of his power in the court, but with Prince Yong's in-laws as a backer, he will not worry about the day when his branch will not come out.
Thinking of this, he sighed again.
If he hadn't offended several powerful ministers of the dynasty by standing in the wrong line in his early years, he would not have lost his errand, so he had to live with the title empty, and now he had to sacrifice his beloved second son to marry the royal family.
Although the child has no ambition, but has a gentle personality, he should be the best candidate to inherit the family business, when the time comes, he and Achang A are a master inside, a master outside, the eldest son is an official in the court, and the second son stays in the ancestral business, isn't it a good thing, but it's a pity that Ah Xing Ah married Mo Yaqi, if you let the rude and willful royal family become the clan wife, this ancestral business of the Hitara clan, I'm afraid it will really be squandered.
Looking at it this way, it is cheaper than the third son of the concubine.
Not only can he take over the beauty of taking care of the affairs of the house without much effort, but he can also get a virtuous and gentle wife, no wonder Li Jiashi was so active in matchmaking for his second son A Xing'a and Mo Yaqi before, dare to think about this beautiful thing......
These things that Fu Tai thought of, his Fujin Ma Jia clan had already thought of.
The reason why Ma Jia's family agreed to let Ah Xing'a and Mo Yaqi marry is also to think clearly, Ah Xing's child is good at everything, but his personality is too gentle, and he talks about etiquette everywhere to let others score three points, if this is placed in the homes of ordinary people, it must be a good man in the mouth of the neighbors, but it is not good in such a royal family, it must be devoured by people with flesh and bones, it is better to find a more powerful wife for him, and Mo Yaqi, the brutal and willful royal character, is just right.
With Ah Xing A and Mo Yaqi marrying, Ah Chang'a she gave birth to can also get benefits, the best of both worlds.
Li Jiashi thought that she was clear and shrewd, but she didn't know that her little actions were a child's thing in Ma Jia's eyes, and she couldn't be on the stage at all.
Ma Jiashi thought like this, smiled and instructed the personal maid to take the meeting gift prepared for Mo Yaqi to her, she gently picked up the gold-inlaid jade and jade magpie Dengmei hairpin, and asked softly to the housekeeper beside her: "Do you think this thing is enough to look at, and don't make it a little heavier?"
"Fujin, according to the old slave, this hairpin is enough, if it is heavier, Shao Fujin should be unhappy. ”
"That's right, although she Mo Yaqi is a royal family member and has a noble background, but since she has entered the door, she should follow the rules of our house and exalt her too much, then it will be difficult for her sister-in-law to deal with herself.
By the way, you should go to the Tatara house later, and calm her down, and don't let her think nonsense. In fact, Ma Jiashi had a plan in her heart, she smiled and perfunctory, and then she said her purpose, she was worried that those ignorant girls in her room would go out to talk nonsense, so that the new daughter-in-law Mo Yaqi who had just entered the door felt awkward.
The housekeeper's mother-in-law is Ma Jia's marrying maid, and she knows Ma Jia's character best, and she has a tacit understanding.
Ma Jiashi smiled and asked the personal maid to put away the meeting gift prepared for Mo Yaqi, and then raised his hand to arrange the beaded tassels hanging from his ears, and after carefully checking his makeup in the mirror, he got up and came to the porch outside, and went to the flower hall in front of Futai to greet several clan elders and clan elders who came to the mansion to help.
As for Erf's invitation, she had already arranged it.
Before noon, the new daughter-in-law worships her ancestors and recognizes her relatives, and she goes to the Old Summer Palace to ask for Erfu, and the reason why she wants to talk about this matter in front of Futai is to let Futai know the hard work and fatigue of her wife, lest Futai's heart run to those young concubines and forget her and her children.
The way this husband and wife get along still needs some calculations.
If she is really like her own mother's teaching, she is the husband and the child in her heart, and she works hard to be the housekeeper in Futai's mansion, takes care of the concubines and concubines from the partial house for Futai, and boils herself into a yellow-faced woman, then she must not be as sad to death as her extremely virtuous mother.
Thinking of this, Ma Jia's face changed slightly.
She clenched her fists tightly with her hands hidden under her sleeves, and said secretly: Today is a good day, and she shouldn't think about these unhappy things.
"Come on, let's go and see how the second elder brother is doing?" she commanded with a deep breath and a smile.
Outside the door, a maidservant girl answered the call and went to Luoxia Garden.
To say that Futai in order to let Ah Xing'a be able to marry Mo Yaqi smoothly, he also let go, and bought the empty house next door, and expanded the originally not spacious three-entry courtyard into a four-entry courtyard, so even the lotus pond in the small garden in the backyard was filled, and a two-entry courtyard was specially set aside for A Xing'a in the inner house, so that A Xing'a and Mo Yaqi could have more space to be alone.
And this two-entry courtyard is the Luoxia Garden that Ma Jia's mouth said.
After a while, the maid who went to Luoxia Garden came back.
"Fu Jin, the second elder brother and the second Fu Jin have already left for this side. The little girl ran sweaty and hurried back.
When Ma Jiashi heard this, he turned his head to Futai and several clan elders and clan elders here, and said with a smile: "This new daughter-in-law is really a child who understands the rules, and on the second day after entering the door, she came over to give us tea so early, without any arrogance, which made me breathe a sigh of relief." ”
Everyone in the room nodded in agreement.
While they were talking, Ah Xing'a and Mo Yaqi arrived outside the flower hall.
Does Mo Yaqi really understand the rules?
Naturally not, it's just that the teaching grandmother who was with her had already reminded her.
However, Mo Yaqi didn't think about putting her royal family on the shelf, after all, there are many royal families in this capital, and she also knows her Amma's character, since she married into the Xitara clan's mansion, she is the daughter-in-law of the Hitara clan, and she can't be allowed to act willfully, otherwise if she doesn't wait for others to teach her, her Ama will teach her a lesson.
Of course, she also knew that as long as she behaved properly, everyone in the Hitara clan would not dare to bully her.
Because of this, Mo Yaqi got up early and came over to serve tea to the in-laws.
Today's Mo Yaqi is still wearing a big red and gold embroidered Ruyi pattern, and she is wearing a few purple and gold silk flowers on her sideburns, showing her joy, her cheeks are slightly red and she follows her husband A Xing'a's side, followed by the servant entourage holding a gift to the in-laws and elders, Lianbu walked into the flower hall lightly, standing on the ground pretty, and letting the big guy's eyes fall on his own body.
"It's worthy of royalty, look at this demeanor, look at this look......"
"It's really everyone's beautiful style......"
"Yes, the new daughter-in-law is really good......"
With a burst of praise like no money, the corners of Mo Yaqi's mouth raised slightly, and she looked at Ah Xing'a beside her timidly, and she whispered as if she was ashamed of herself: "Master ......"
"Don't be afraid, Ama and E-Niang are extremely kind people. Hearing this, Ah Xing replied softly.
After speaking, he took Mo Yaqi's hand and walked towards Futai and his Fujin Ma Jia's son.
As Erfu expected, Ah Xing'a was really satisfied with Mo Yaqi's wife.
In fact, he once had a fiancée who set a marriage date, but his fiancée died of illness before he passed the door, and the marriage was delayed until now, and there was a faint rumor of his name as a wife, he originally thought that he was afraid that he would casually marry a girl from a poor family, but now he married Mo Yaqi, a royal family, for him, it was also a big piece of pie that fell on his head, of course he cherished it, not to mention that Mo Yaqi was so gentle and considerate......
