173. I have seen my uncle and grandmother
"Yes, he's been promoted again. "It should be a happy event, but looking at Mrs. Zhang's demeanor, it seems that there is no eel joy.
Liu Dong'er didn't know much at first, but after thinking about it, he understood. This aunt and wife Zhang were originally married, and married to a military general family as the daughter of a merchant. Although this dynasty said that it was more important to be literate than military, the military generals were still much more dominant than the merchants. What's more, Mrs. Zhang's lover has been reading poetry and books since she was a child, and she is the identity of the champion, and all the marriages were attached to Mrs. Zhang's aunt.
In fact, if a high marriage girl asks for a wife, it doesn't hurt even if Mrs. Zhang's aunt is attached. Like Liu Dong'er, why wasn't he attached at the beginning?
Before this marriage, even if there is a family, but after marriage, it is the husband's family, and the mother's family will not be particularly important. It's just that after this high marriage, the main thing is to give birth to a son immediately, Liu Dong'er has not been married for three years, and the pressure is great, but what about Mrs. Zhang's aunt?
She should be six or seven years younger than Liu Dong'er, but Liu Dong'er was really married at the age of eighteen because Han Ziye wanted to keep filial piety. But early marriage is prevalent in the capital, and Mrs. Zhang's aunt is not very early, but she was married at the age of fifteen. In this way, she also has a lot of thoughts about getting married. But I don't know if her lover has a concubine?
Just as they were thinking calmly, a little maid walked quickly towards them, but it was reported to Lei'er that Brother Rui'er had arrived in her yard.
In fact, it stands to reason that Brother Rui, a foreign man who has reached adulthood, cannot enter the back house of the Zhang family. But the Zhang family doesn't value politeness very much, and the Zhang family is easy to speak, and Brother Rui is Lei'er's younger brother, so they let him in.
After learning that Brother Rui had arrived, Lei'er wanted to come back as a poop, and it was all right to come to visit this garden, but she and Brother Rui hadn't seen each other for more than a month: "Eldest sister......"
"Alright, let's come back together. Unexpectedly, as soon as they walked to the gate of Lei'er's courtyard, Brother Rui'er's mocking voice came out: "I said second sister, you usually make a fuss, why don't you have to stop when you are pregnant?" ”
Brother Rui was in pain, and snorted lightly: "What kind of eel is this?" Second sister, you are only allowed to run around, and you are forbidden to say two words to me?"
Liu Dong'er, who fell on the back, hugged the fat brother and smiled bitterly, Lei'er didn't see Mrs. Zhang's expression, but she saw it at a glance.
It is true that as an eldest sister, she will be happy to see her brother-in-law pregnant again, but the question is that in such a comparison, her situation is even more painful. If the situation at this time is reversed, and it is Leier who is not pregnant in a row, then the result will be different. Lei'er is married, her mother's status is much higher than that of her mother-in-law's family, and her sister-in-law's sister and brother are all capable people, even if they are not pregnant for a few years, no one will say anything about eels. What about her? The good marriage that was attached to her at the beginning is really ironic at this time.
"Mrs. Han, I want to stand up for something, so I'll come back first, you can help me talk to Lei'er. ”
Mrs. Zhang's aunt said something with a pale face, and left in a hurry. Liu Dong'er felt that it was very remarkable that she could do it without losing her manners, and looking at her staggering demeanor when she left, she was very unconvinced at this time.
After entering the courtyard, Lei'er and Rui Ge'er had already made a mess, and it was really Lei'er who unilaterally bullied Rui Ge'er, although Rui Ge'er could say a few words, but he didn't dare to touch her. First, Leier has been spoiled since she was a child. Second, Brother Rui is jealous of the child in Lei'er's belly.
"Okay, okay, how old are you still like this, is there any interest?"
Seeing Liu Dong'er speak, both of them stopped. But after a while, Brother Rui exclaimed that Brother Rui'er was indeed worthy of his name, which provoked Lei'er to murder him viciously, and Liu Dong'er was a good persuasion, and when Lei'er learned that Mrs. Zhang's aunt left first, she was bored for a while. Brother Rui was a little unsure Therefore, after listening to Liu Dong'er's answer, he also sighed. But it's really hard to say about the fate of the heirs. In fact, if you really talk about it, Mrs. Zhang's body and bones are not bad, and she used to look like she was also able to give birth, but she couldn't keep the child for some reason.
This can't save the child than never giving birth. Just imagine, if you are directly infertile, you can still seek medical advice, at least you have a hope in your heart. And like Mrs. Zhang's aunt, she is pregnant, but she ...... The first child was forgotten, young and ignorant, not to mention that there was no hope for any eel, and it was not a disappointment. But the opposite time, it really ruined her.
After more than nine months of pregnancy and a lot of hardships, she finally gave birth to the child, but she was unable to support it. That state of mind is a thousand times more uncomfortable than a miscarriage.
"My eldest sister is really the best, but it just so happens that her life is not good. Lei'er and Mrs. Zhang's relationship is also good, so her voice is a little muffled: "She used to be in good health, she was not pregnant before, and her friends always comforted her that she was still young, and she would have children in the future, but ...... The last time the child couldn't be fed, she collapsed. ”
Seeing that the house was a little bored, Lei'er waved her hand: "That's it, don't talk about this." Our family is quite good at giving birth, sister, are you right?"
How can she answer the phone? Liu Dong'er is really dumbfounded, is it possible for her to agree, she is indeed very good at giving birth?
Liu Dong'er was so angry that she almost rolled her eyes, but after all, Lei'er was happy, and it was not in vain that Brother Fei Rui'er made a special trip. And under Lei'er's compulsion, Rui Ge'er promised to come to see Lei'er every two days in the future until she was allowed to go out. At this moment, Lei'er was just satisfied, and made an appointment with Liu Dong'er that after the first three months, she would go door-to-door to have fun.
"Don't go back to your parents' house for the time being, the people next to you will do whatever you want. "Although I know that Lei'er is measured, the situation of the Liu family is not easy to say. If it's ordinary, it doesn't matter, but Lei'er is pregnant at this time, in case she gets something bad with any eel, adults can do it okay, but if the child in the belly suffers, it will be a lifetime thing.
Lei'er had vaguely guessed that something had happened to the Liu family, but she saw that Brother Rui was fine, and she also heard that the second master of the Liu family and Liu Zhang's family were all right, so she no longer cared: "Then I can always go to Xi'er, right? She usually doesn't go out often, and she is already very bored, so I'll go to play with her!"
Due to the delay at Zhang's house for some time, when Liu Dong'er returned to Han's house, it was almost curfew. Han Ziye got the information in advance and asked the maid to prepare some food and wait for her in the room, and when she came back, she smiled the most. Chilled by Han Ziye's smile, Liu Dong'er hurriedly asked what was going on, but he didn't think that Han Ziye didn't reply immediately, but asked her to wait, and there would be information in a few days. If it was possible, Liu Dong'er really wanted to stagger Han Ziye and force him to tell him what happened, she also knew Han Ziye's nature, if he really wanted to cover up something, it would be useless to force him to death. In desperation, Liu Dong'er had to compromise and wait for the information that he would know in a few days. And before that, Liu Dong'er also asked about the recent situation in Luzhou City, Han Ziye's statement was still the same, but he only knew about the officialdom, and he was helpless about what happened around the eldest master of the Liu family. A few days later, the Han family welcomed an unexpected guest, which made all the Han family members except Han Ziye feel extreme surprise.
It is naturally a merit for a guest to come from afar, but this thing is obviously more surprising than happy.
Han Zi touched his nose with ambition, saw that Liu Dong'er and the old lady of the Han family were waiting for you to answer, and sighed helplessly: "Answer...... I'll answer later, let's welcome people in first, it's a bit chilly at this time. ”
Seeing that Han Ziye was soft, others would not go on anymore, just like Han Ziye said, no matter what eel matter, he had to welcome people in first, and he didn't have to let the guests wait outside. Even if it's just a small guest.
"Come, Sister Hua'er, come here, I'm your uncle and grandmother. The old lady of the Han family soon understood that she would hold the future person in her arms.
This person is none other than Han Huashang, the daughter of Han Ziye's second brother.
Sister Hua and Brother Jie were born in the same year, only a few months younger than Brother Jie'er, and they were only eight years old at this time, or a childish mess. The old lady of the Han family didn't know why Sister Hua would be sent over to Luzhou City, the heirs of the second room of the Han family were not hot, and there were only two young ladies and a young master at this time.
"Sister Hua has seen her uncle's grandmother. Although Sister Hua is only eight years old, she is very knowledgeable about etiquette, first gave a salute to the old lady of the Han family, and then gave a salute to Han Ziye and Liu Dong'er in turn, and then stood on the side with her head down, no longer speaking.
Liu Dong'er glanced at Han Ziye, Sister Hua came over to be a guest for such a big thing, he didn't say it beforehand, it's okay, the Han family didn't have any eels, what does this make a little lady think?
Han Ziye received Liu Dong'er's eye knife, and sighed slightly: "I wanted to surprise you, why does it look like my fault? Okay, okay, it's indeed my fault, we have a little lady in the family, you should be happy, right?"
"yes, of course I'm happy. Sister Hua, don't stand over there, come to your aunt. What a beautiful little lady, live in our house in the future, and let your three brothers play with you. "The old lady of the Han family smiled the most kindly, but Sister Hua'er's demeanor was not very beautiful, she looked quite round and cute when she was a child, but at this time, after she grew up, she was only medium in appearance, which was more than a step worse than when Han Xi was a child.
Of course, no matter what Sister Hua looks like, what she says on the pomp and circumstance always has to be said. It's just that to the surprise of the old lady of the Han family, when she finished saying these polite words, Sister Hua actually glanced at her with the most gratitude, and then knelt down for her: "Sister Hua, thank you for cherishing your grandmother." ”
These words made the old lady of the Han family a little confused, but she quickly adjusted her expression, and hugged Sister Hua into her arms with a smile: "Okay, Grandmother Uncle, Grandmother cherishes you, so you can live with Grandmother Uncle in the future, okay?"
Han Ziye did not report this matter to Liu Dong'er before, and naturally Liu Dong'er would not prepare a yard and subordinates for Sister Hua'er. Although the population of this Han family is not much at first glance, the subordinates have been built continuously according to the routine, except for a few idle subordinates on the side of the guest house, there is no manpower in the next place. Moreover, the yard that the Han family bought in the capital is not very large, the old lady of the Han family lives in a courtyard, Liu Donger has a courtyard, Jie Ge'er and Tai Ge'er live in a courtyard, one is the courtyard where Han Xi lived when he was not married, and then there is the guest courtyard.
Sister Hua came alone, and she was a young lady, so it must be impossible to put her in the guest house. But Han Xi's courtyard had no other subordinates except for the two rough envoys who were usually swept away. What's more, Han Xi's yard has not been repaired, and she will occasionally go back to her parents' house to live.
