Chapter 889: Luck and Misfortune
"Go to Mr. Ning's house, pick up the new New Year's pig sent by Zhuangzi, and pick up the best fine meat and take it." Li commanded with a smile.
Huatang knew that she was in a good mood and worried about her daughter, so he made a pleasing proposal: "Madam, why don't you ask the eldest lady to go home." Count the days, you haven't seen her in a long time. ”
Lee's smile deepened. Yes, she may not have seen her daughter for a long time, but every time she brings a letter, she has said that she is very good and has a very fulfilling life with Mr. Ning.
However, I am afraid that she will report good news and not bad news. Mother and daughter are connected, and she is very worried about this daughter who has a bad marriage.
As soon as the Cheng family fell, she could also slowly start to pay attention to Tu Manfen. She is in the prime of her youth, and she is not a widow, is it possible to be ready to live alone for the rest of her life?
It is not uncommon for divorced women to remarry.
It has to be said that in this regard, the atmosphere of the Gaomang Dynasty was much more open than that of the previous dynasty. Regardless of the people, at least there is no discrimination against these women in the law.
"Okay," Li said with a smile, "You ask, let her be free recently, and come back." ”
The painting hall responded with a smile.
……
Pingguo Mansion.
Tu Manzhen learned the news and couldn't help but celebrate. She saw Cheng Jinghao, who bullied her sister, early in the morning, unpleasant, which called the wicked to collect it by themselves.
"Aqua blue." She shouted.
Shui Lan came in from outside, bowed his knees, and said with a smile: "Please also ask the princess to command." ”
In the past few days, Tu Manzhen has been a little mysterious, and she ordered that she should not enter the house without her permission, and she didn't know what she was doing inside.
Shui Lan was the dowry maid she brought from the Tu family, and she was originally second-class in the Tu family, but she was only promoted to the first class when she came over. The original little maid has also grown up, and Tu Manzhen plans to find a mother-in-law for Shui Lan after she gives birth.
"You go to Mr. Ning's house and ask the eldest sister if she is free." Speaking of this, Tu Manzhen waved her hand impatiently and said, "Whether she is idle or not, I have to invite her to come over, just say that I miss her." ”
Tu Manzhen has a straightforward temperament, not as tactful as Li's. Relying on sisterhood, she is also much more casual, so she wants Tu Manfen to come to the house.
She is now pregnant and inconvenient to go out, but how can such a great good thing be done without talking to the eldest sister? She is inconvenient to go out, and Tu Manfen is always convenient.
……
Tu Manfen followed Mr. Ning back to the house, and the two talked about the new pastries of Baicaowei and talked about the elimination and replacement of pastry chefs.
Following Mr. Ning's side, she has gained a lot of knowledge.
Like she used to, she only knew how to taste delicious food, and never thought that there would be so many processes from production to serving to the table of guests, involving many people and different positions.
Yes, posts. Mr. Ning introduced the modern job responsibility system into Baicaowei. At first, it was only implemented in the pastry shop she managed, but later Xu Wenmin thought it was good and let the big shopkeeper implement it in the whole store.
Tu Manfen feels that this is a completely different process from making some osmanthus cakes to make snacks at home.
She is undoubtedly studious, and when she shifts her gaze to this knowledge that is new to her, she absorbs and progresses like a sponge.
The two entered the mansion one after the other. Mr. Ning's expression was gentle, patiently explaining the questions raised by Tu Manfen. And Tu Manfen looked excited, like a child who had just obtained a novelty candy.
The mother-in-law who guarded the door stepped forward to see the salute and said, "Mrs. Tu, the eldest lady of the Tu family and the princess of Pingguo have sent people." ”
"Oh?" Tu Manfen was stunned, this is not a year, why did her mother and sister send someone to ask? "What do they say?"
"Mrs. Tu said that Zhuangzi killed the New Year's pig and sent a few good meats. By the way, let the eldest lady go back when she is free. ”
"The princess said that no matter whether the eldest lady is idle or not, go to her house quickly." Tu Manfen didn't realize it, this was indeed what Tu Manzhen would say.
It's just that she still doesn't understand the reason why she is suddenly in a hurry to go back.
Mr. Ning saw that she was confused and felt a little funny. Such a big thing as the fall of the Cheng family has spread all over the capital. As a schoolgirl, why don't you seem to know?
"It should be that the Cheng family is gone, and your mother and sister are in a hurry to marry you off." Mr. Ning made a rare joke of her.
In the past two days, such a big thing has happened in the capital connection, and it is naturally impossible for her not to know about it. For ordinary people in the capital, the most concerned thing is that the Guan family was beheaded by all the doors, and then the fate of several Hou Mansions.
Compared with the tragic situation of the Guan family, the Hou Mansion is finally considered to have made military exploits on the ancestors, and Emperor Qinglong can be regarded as an extrajudicial favor. In addition to the beheading of the first evil, the Gao and Cheng families all saved their lives.
It is said that seeing the Cheng family's bad luck, Tu Manfen should be very happy. But she had already left Cheng Jinghao behind, and when Xu Wanzhen retrieved the documents for her, she completely made a clear connection with the Cheng family in her heart.
Therefore, the attention of the people in Beijing to this big case is equivalent to Tu Manfen's attitude. She didn't have any special feelings for the Cheng family, so she didn't understand what her mother and sister did for a while.
Tu Manfen was at a loss at first, and then suddenly realized. I don't know what she thought, Xia Sheng stomped her feet with her cheeks and said, "Sir, you are like this too." ”
Seeing her showing her little daughter's attitude, Mr. Ning blinked narrowly and said with a smile: "If you don't believe it, go back and try to know." ”
The two of them talked and walked into the house.
The weather is getting colder and colder, but Tu Manfen's body is much better than in previous years. Running up and down behind Mr. Ning, she didn't need to deliberately exercise, and she felt that her body was stronger than usual.
After getting off the sedan chair, she hurriedly left, although the climate was cold, but before she entered the house, she felt sweat on her forehead.
"I'm going to enter the palace in the afternoon," Mr. Ning untied his cloak and handed it to Uran Lan, looked at Tu Manfen and said, "You can go back and save them from worrying." ”
Tu Manfen nodded obediently, at this time she had completely figured out the concern and joy of her family, but she realized it later.
But for the Cheng family, she really doesn't have any feelings. Whether it is Cheng Jinghao, who used to be a husband and wife, or her mother-in-law Lin Anjia, or the concubine who bullied her openly and secretly.
It was only a few months away, but she felt that these months were more exciting than her previous days. Now that I think of her days in the Cheng family, it is as far away as the past.
"I'm relieved to see you like this." Mr. Ning saw that she really had no knots about the Cheng family, and said with a smile.
In this era, a woman's marriage is tantamount to a second reincarnation. If you don't marry well, you have to get into it for the rest of your life.
When she met a husband like Cheng Jinghao, Tu Manfen was unlucky.
But she is lucky, when she encounters difficulties and falls into a trough, there is a loyal maid like Yinping, Xu Wanzhen who reaches out to pull her, and a family member who loves her and cares about her for her.
In addition, there is also Wang Leyu, who is in love with her.
