Chapter 68: Desire

In Jiamutang, the house is covered with a thick wool carpet from the Western Regions, there is still no incense in the house, the cloisonné copper incense burner with gilt fried beads is loosely held in Wang's hand, and behind him is the pillow of Shu embroidered butterflies and peonies, the lake-green horse face is embroidered with a foot-wide auspicious pattern of five grains and harvests, and ten pairs of fine pleats are neatly scattered along the edge of the Luohan bed.

Once Wang's calm side is stimulated, it is calm and intimidating.

Hui Rong took her hand and continued to say softly and slowly: "The third master of our family discussed with me in private, and the third sister was going to enter the palace to accompany her, but now there is a disturbance in her father's house.

"But there is more than this, yesterday my mother-in-law saw Mrs. Yang of the Wuwei Hou family, and listened to Mrs. Yang say that the five girls of the Qin family have been missing since they went to the banquet of the Su family and have been missing since they came back, and the six girls are also infected with the wind cold, I am afraid that something is ......wrong."

"How did the Yang family know that Sui Ping was missing?" Before Hui Rong finished speaking, she heard Wang's quiet voice, and she couldn't help but chuckle in her heart, her mother looked like she was very strong in the house.

She still patiently explained slowly: "Mrs. Yang's meaning, the words are full of five girls were placed under house arrest by the Hou Mansion, my mother-in-law is naturally not a person who listens to it, and then asked the reason, only then did she know that although the eldest girl of the Wuwei Hou family is much different from the age of the year, it is good like a handkerchief, since she learned the news of the Su family banquet, she is young and has not been able to pass, so she thought about the interesting things at the banquet, and wrote a letter to send it, but she didn't expect the news to sink into the sea. ”

Wang's eyebrows slowly twisted together, but he didn't expect to miss Pei Yan.

"Good boy, it's hard for you to think about your family. Wang spoke, his voice was faint, and he called people into the house to add tea. Hui Rong immediately understood that this topic was going to end here, and continued with kindness: "It's easy for the third master to accompany me back, and the second sister is about to get married, so I'll go and see her." ”

Wang smiled and told her to be careful about her body, and asked Duan's mother to take a half-foot-high white jade carving of Guanyin, and let Huirong's mother hold it back, "It's the treasure that Master Fahua has opened the light and recited the scriptures for 7749 days in the Mixin Temple, and bring it back to worship." ”

Hui Rong's face became flattered: "Mother is also pregnant, so let's stay with my mother for such a precious treasure!

Wang smiled deeply: "When you come out in the morning, you don't have to smear honey on your mouth." If you want to bring it back, you will bring it back - I am a child and daughter, this child is ripe, and I only hope that the child will be born safely; but you are different, this is your first child, and it is naturally more expensive. ”

Let Duan's mother wrap a lot of things piecemeal, what kind of sheepskin rattle that children play with, embroidered tiger head shoes, soft underwear fabric...... "This child is my first grandson!

Hui Rong looked at the happy appearance of her mother Wang in the year of Hua Xin, as if she was not worried about what they said, and half of the uneasiness in her heart fell, and Hui Zhi and Sui Fan accompanied her to the second room to see Hui Zhu.

Duan's mother sent the things prepared by the Wang family to the Chen family's carriage and finished wrapping them, and as soon as she returned to the house, she was called by the Wang family, "You write a post in a while, go to the second room and ask the second lady to take Sui Ping's private seal and stamp it, and send someone to Wuwei Hou." ”

Mother Duan looked at Wang's appearance today that was very different from the usual fetus, and couldn't help but feel that this matter was not trivial, and listened to her continue: "Mrs. Wu Weihou thinks that we have abused Sui Ping, and she wants to let go out of the rumors, so let's let Sui Ping come out to meet people generously." ”

Duan's mother only then knew that Madame had finally used her as a person close to her.

Ever since she came to Wang's side, the Mrs. Cheng'an Hou she saw often looked not very smart - either angry or concealed from the news.

But even so, Cheng Anhou still loves her and believes in her. Although she treated the Wang family a little lightly in her heart at first, she also had to admit that being able to tie her husband's heart tightly to herself was also her wife's greatest ability.

Not to mention the business experience I heard my wife talk to the two girls yesterday, in addition to reading the accounts, there are also tips for settling accounts, methods of selecting people, and piles and piles, which made her slowly feel awe.

"On the fifth girl's side, how does Madam want to arrange it?" Duan's mother lowered her head and asked respectfully.

"People like her, the life and death of her biological mother Li, I'm afraid they can't contain her. The matter of Suiping will be implicated in the reputation of Hui Zhi and even the seven girls and eight girls if you are not careful...... Only her own future is what she cares about most. Wang said unhurriedly, his fingers lightly touched the side of the teacup, and he lit it very slowly but regularly - this habit is very similar to Cheng'anhou.

"Mrs. Sun arranged the marriage to marry her away. Although the Bai clan in Fujian is a big family, it is very unsafe for water thieves and pirates to be rampant in the south, and it is not uncommon for them to move and take refuge; the Sun clan in Jiangnan is the maiden home of Mrs. Tai! The Li clan in the northwest is too shoddy, how can a girl like her with such a delicate mind and water be able to stand it?"

"Madame, do you mean that there are other arrangements?" Duan's mother began to admire Wang a little. These three families are all places that will let Sui Ping marry with face and no lining, is it possible that the Wang family has other candidates, and the skills control zhì Sui Ping, and can prevent her from telling the secret?

"Among the twelve years of Jinshi in Xuande, there is a young man named Cheng Fang, but he is weak and old, and he is also good-looking. Recently, I returned to Beijing to report on my work, and the rating is excellent. There is only one father in the family, the mother died early, the family is quite wealthy, and there are several Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing. Wang twisted a piece of delicate-looking gourd cake, which was sent back from Jiangnan by Hou Ye, and the taste was soft and sweet.

"He waited for the dispatch of the imperial court in the capital, Jiangnan, Sichuan, Shu, Lingnan, and Yanbei. After getting married, where he can go depends on what Sui Ping will say after seeing Pei Yan. ”

Duan's mother understood, and changed the Linglong Pearl and a few people stepped forward to serve, and she went to write a post and sent it to the second room.

***

Huizhu sat in the room embroidering the dowry, a red wedding dress, three layers inside and three layers outside, hung on the sandalwood hangers in the house, reflecting the whole room is red, very festive.

The little girl reported the letter, and Huizhu got up to greet her, and when she saw Huirong coming to see her with her two younger sisters, she immediately beckoned the three of them into the house and sat down.

Very curiously staring at Huirong's belly under the wide long jacket, he couldn't help but reach out and touch it gently, "The eldest sister still looks so thin, why is there an extra person in the belly......"

Hui Rong, who said a word, laughed out loud and almost spit out the tea she had drunk.

"Don't worry, when your nephew is born in the future, I will send you a few of his little clothes!"

Huizhu was still stunned after hearing this, and Sui Fan had already covered her mouth and laughed: "It's a pity that the second sister can't reach out and twist the eldest sister's mouth today - her mouth is still the same as before, and she is the best at burying people." ”

Hui Zhi also laughed when she said it, and Hui Zhu finally understood what Hui Rong meant, and her face turned red.

A few people were talking and laughing, when they heard the sound of porcelain falling to the ground in the distance, and then there was a commotion.

Hui Zhi looked up at Hui Zhu and asked with a puzzled look, "What direction is this?"

Huizhu listened carefully, called the little girl to ask, and then said: "It's where Suiping lives these days." Duan's mother had just gone in with something. ”

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of several people changed a little.
