The next day, Su went to see Ba Niangzi and Ci'an, and returned to the main courtyard, the third master entered the house, saw Su Shi come in, and asked: "Where did Jin Niang go? I just came back and didn't see you."

Su Shi's heart is now a fan of his wife, and every time he enters the house, he asks, I am not a wooden person, and I can't have my own business. In fact, it's just a habit, not necessarily looking for her for anything, just like in the previous life, every time Su's father came home from work, he asked: Where is your mother?

Su Shi once chatted with her sister, and her sister said that in fact, men are more lonely than women, and men only have wives when they come home after work, but women are busy with children, busy with housework, and old sisters can gossip, especially when they retire in old age, most of them are husbands who have no friends, so they have to follow their wives, but their wives have a large group of elderly women friends.

The third master is just habitually asked, and then said that yesterday he discussed with Cousin Song which concubine and Baniangzi's family affairs, and last time in Zhuangzi, he only verbally set the marriage contract between the two families, and the woman candidate was only Baniangzi, but Cousin Song had three concubine candidates, one was four years old, and two were about the same age as Baniangzi.

Su Shi asked, "Which one did the master order?"

The third master said: "I didn't order, so I asked about the specific situation, and I came back to talk to you about it and then ordered."

Su sat down and said, "What about the aunts of these three concubines?"

The third old man said: "Just look at how Erlang is, what does an aunt care about her, what does it have to do with an aunt?"

Look, this is the man who doesn't know about the inner house, who wants to go up to the first two mothers-in-law, and then meet an aunt and mother-in-law like Aunt Huang, then the eighth lady will marry into the fire pit.

Su Shi smiled: "Who said it doesn't matter? How did Aunt Huang go to Zhuangzi?"

The third old man was choked by his wife's words and wanted to roll his eyes, how could he have anything to do with Aunt Huang? I also blamed myself for finding such a scourge, and I really didn't dare to say anything at this time.

Su Shi said: " I don't know about Cousin Song's family affairs, and my cousin and sister can't explain it clearly, so the lord discussed with Cousin Song, to find someone who is not only healthy, but also an aunt who is about the same, Aunt Luo is good, only for the sake of the child, and will not cause trouble to the child, you just tell your cousin, if this aunt is like Aunt Huang in the future, I will withdraw from the marriage, and I would rather find a son-in-law for the eighth lady than let the little lady who I worked hard to raise be sent to others to suffer, the lord said to the cousin, let's talk about the ugly things in front, so as not to turn my face when I get it”

How dare the third master say anything at this time, just oh oh yes, and peek at his wife's expression, Su squinted and saw his thief's weak look, happy in his heart, but not on his face, and said that he wanted to prepare for the operation for Ci'an, the third master had no intention of caring about others, and it was just oh oh, Su was bored, so he said to see his son, and the two of them went to the nurse to hug Minshan back.

The two of them are teaching Minshan to learn words, and the next person reported to Mrs. Tai that there was an invitation, Su Shi was also strange, Mrs. Tai had nothing to do with this time, and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I also asked an old lady to go to see Keju together, and the two of them also made a bet for the competition, and they also gambled to play, ten taels of silver, Mrs. Tai lost, and came back and muttered that she would ask Mrs. to see and bet back next time.

Mrs. Tai went to watch the game and still took the second wife, and covered her stomach with a smile, the second wife has lost a lot of weight recently, and this thinness makes Su envious, why didn't she lose weight so quickly.

When I arrived at the Yuancao Hall, the second master and Mrs. Hou had already arrived, and the second wife was in the Yuancao Hall every day, so there was no need to call her.

As soon as Su Shi entered the room, he saw a woman sitting next to Mrs. Tai, looking in her early forties, next to her stood a man in his twenties who looked very similar to her, and a young woman with a small belly, sitting on a round stool next to the woman's feet, and a middle-aged woman holding a three- or four-year-old child in her arms. It's like a family of three generations.

When Mrs. Tai saw the third master of the Su family coming in, she said with a smile: "De'er, daughter-in-law, come and introduce, this is my mother's family."

The third master also saw those people, but he didn't know them, and the Su family didn't know them, and the Su family also peeked at Mrs. Xiahou, and saw that she was also at a loss, and it was estimated that she was also a distant relative who had not heard of or seen.

The middle-aged woman's family stood up, and Mrs. Tai introduced to her sons and daughters-in-law: "This is the daughter of my mother's cousin, you have to call Sister Dong, she is two years younger than De'er, when she was in her mother's house, her mother also played well with your sister Dong's mother, this is her son, called Zhu Jinming, as well as daughter-in-law and grandson, and will live in our house in the future, old family, you arrange a place for your sister Dong"

Su Shi only then understood that it was Mrs. Tai's maternal relative, but for some reason she came to the Hou Mansion, and turned around to ask her sister-in-law, Su also greeted Cousin Dong with a smile with her sister-in-law, Cousin Dong handed over her grandson to her daughter-in-law, called her cousin and sister-in-law with a smile, and pushed her son to let him greet her cousin and aunt.

They all introduced each other, and Mrs. Tai happily said that a table would be arranged in her room in the evening, so that Mrs. Hou and Su would accompany them, and they would get acquainted with each other, and they would take care of Cousin Dong a lot in the future.

exchanged a few words of greeting with each other, the three gentlemen and Cousin Dong had nothing to say, the cousin looked like a wooden one, and the daughter-in-law was even more timid, Xiao'er leaned closely on his mother, carefully peeking at the adults to speak, only Cousin Dong was polite and polite and could say a few words.

After leaving Mrs. Tai, on the way back to each room, Su quietly asked the sister-in-law where this relative, and the sister-in-law said that she would go to the Buddhist hall to find Su Shi in a while.

At the door of Yan Mintang, Chuncao hugged Minshan, Minshan saw that his father and mother came back, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to the third master to hug him, and the third master called his son with a smile, hugged and said to his wife: "Go to the yard to transfer?"

Su said: "Master go first, I want to go to the Buddha Hall to wait for my sister-in-law, and ask my sister-in-law if I have something."

The third master said: "Then I'll go first" and walked to the garden with Minshan in his arms. Su Shi went back to change his coat and went to the garden.

Not long after Su Shi arrived at the Buddhist hall, Mrs. Hou also came, and the two sat down, and Mrs. Hou said: " That cousin Dong is the daughter of Mrs. Tai's cousin, I haven't seen it, I heard that the cousin married to a foreign place back then, it seems to be married to a Zhizhou, a while ago I heard that her daughter's husband's family seems to have committed a crime, that is, Cousin Dong's husband's Zhu family, but somehow Cousin Dong took her own family to the Hou Mansion, the cousin has never returned to Beijing since marrying a Zhizhou in a foreign country, and now I don't know what happened to the Zhu family, will it affect the Hou Mansion, I asked the Hou Ye, the Hou Ye didn't know, said I would go to inquire."

Su said: "I guess it's not a big deal, otherwise she won't be able to come out, she may stay in the house in the future, and the sister-in-law will be busy again in the future, this will always have to be taken care of by the big house, no matter how she will not follow us in the future."

Mrs. Hou was also helpless, but still said: "That's no way, who doesn't have one or two autumn breezes in the house, our front is much better than in Beppu, that is, Mrs. Tai subsidizes her uncle's family, and her uncle's family is also living outside, that is, Wuling Houfu, then Wu Jia's son-in-law is also the mother-in-law who defected to the third aunt's grandmother and lived in the Hou Mansion for more than ten years."

Su nodded, this is a big family, the bloodlines have to take care of each other, it is impossible to sweep the snow in front of the door, Su continued: "I don't think that cousin Dong is a difficult person, her son and daughter-in-law are fine, this family looks like no tricky, and it is estimated that they will not cause trouble in the future."
