Chapter 161: Fate

Xu Wanzhen replied with a smile: "Back to the words of the third cousin, Yu'er has just learned big characters, and now she is going to play in the garden." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Zhen'er Dai Wenyu thanked the third cousin for the reward, and when he comes back, I will take him to see you. ”

After a series of words, he was clear and respectful, and the third cousin smiled and said, "What a clever child." ”

After seeing the ceremony, the guest sat down, and the old lady Tu said: "I haven't seen Ru Niang's child yet, Qiong Yu said that it is a good one, and her vision has always been good." ”

The third cousin said: "With Qiongyu as a guarantee, I am naturally relieved in terms of character." The old lady didn't know that many people in the clan had wanted to pass on their son to me. It's not that I haven't thought about it, if I can't think about it in the end, I have to choose one of the children in the clan. The tone was gloomy.

"Where are they going to be the next step, those children all remember, but they are planning for us to seize our property in a hundred years!" said the third cousin angrily: "Pity my daughter, only one child." If it is true that their wish is granted, what will my daughter rely on in her husband's house in the future!"

After hearing this, Xu Wanzhen understood why the two of them hurriedly went to Beijing before they got the letter. Presumably, when the heirs were hopeless and the clansmen were pressing, they couldn't wait to see a glimmer of hope here.

Old Madam Xu's tone was gentle, and she persuaded: "Third cousin, don't meet them in general. Ru Niang said, she takes you as her parents, and after marriage, as long as she gives birth to her eldest son, she can be raised until the Tu family grows up. ”

"The eldest son?" the third cousin stood up excitedly and asked, "Did I hear me right?"

Old Madam Xu took her hand, nodded with a smile, and said, "That's right." It's just that this matter still needs the approval of the second son of He, Ru Niang has already sent a letter, calculate the time, and it is estimated that there will be a reply in the next few days. ”

The third cousin nodded again and again, things went smoothly than expected, I originally expected that it would take a little more to talk about it, but I didn't expect this Han Runiang to be so reasonable. Seeing that there is a successor, how can he not be excited?

Mrs. Xu said: "It's just that you recognize Han Runiang as your daughter, but she wants to marry into the He family as a concubine." I don't know if you mind, Uncle San, "The letter didn't mention it, so it's better to confirm it more just in case."

"Our Zhuang family, where do we come from so much exquisiteness? The He family in Songzhou has a big business, and we have heard their names in the Meng family. The second son of He is famous, this is the child's own fate, I just hope that she will marry in and not suffer losses. The third cousin said.

"The second son of He is very interested in Ru Niang. Otherwise, he would not have gone to such great lengths to marry her as a good concubine. Old Madam Xu said with a smile: "Ru Niang is currently living in the Xu Mansion in Jiashanfang, third cousin, you see, do you go to see her first, or wait for the second son of He's reply to arrive?"

The third cousin groaned slightly and said, "Since we have this fate with this child, whether it is successful or not, we must meet each other." Qiongyu, you arrange it, let's meet first. ”

Old Madam Xu nodded, several people gossiped together, and Xu Wanzhen listened quietly. After a long time, he said goodbye from the "Shoto Temple" and turned back to Qingzhuyuan. The third cousin uncle and cousin-in-law have their own Wu Niangzi to place them in the Tujia guest house "Guanyun Pavilion".

Qingzhuyuan went to the room, Xu Wanzhen helped Mrs. Xu to sit on the couch, and took a big pillow to cushion behind her waist, before saying: "Sister Ru Niang's side, there is a girl I have to deal with first, so that I can let the third cousin and uncle go over." ”

After all, Mrs. Xu is old, walking back and forth and talking exhaustingly, she felt a little tired, closed her eyes and asked, "Painting a fan?"

"Well, it's that girl. Xu Wanzhen gently kneaded on Mrs. Xu's legs, for the sake of Mrs. Xu's body, she asked Su Sanye to learn some massage techniques, and she had to give her a massage to relieve her fatigue.

"It's a restless one, what are you going to do with it?"

"My granddaughter thought about it, so I had to ask Sister Ru Niang to give me her deed and arrange for her to go to the 'Splendid Record' shop to be an embroiderer. Grandmother can see it?"

Old Madam Xu thought for a moment and said, "It's okay for now, you just look at her." ”

"My granddaughter can save it, and I will go to Jiashanfang tomorrow. Seeing that Mrs. Xu was tired, she didn't speak at the moment, and concentrated on pushing and picking it up. In the middle of the night, Mrs. Xu let out a slight snoring sound, and she was already asleep.

Xu Wanzhen stood up gently and rubbed her sour hands. Yulu lightly took a thin blanket and covered it for Mrs. Xu, and the two gently exited the room.

In the "Changhong Courtyard", the Lin family's face sank like water, and asked, "The Tu family has already arranged to go to the 'Guanyun Pavilion'?"

Peach replied, "Yes, old lady." Wu Niangzi personally brought it. ”

With a "snap", the teacup in his hand shattered, and Lin said angrily: "This family is really getting more and more unpleasant. I'm the mother of the Tu family who is in charge of the feed, and the guests at home don't know me? What kind of thing is that Wu Niangzi, who lives at home innocently, and now she is even acting on her behalf. ”

The Lin family was angry, and the peach and Qiaolan were as silent as cicadas. Wu Niangzi is half an elder in the Tu family, the Lin family dares to say this, but how dare they speak?

Besides, this time the Lin family is not looking for fault for no reason, in the rules of the Gaomang Dynasty, if a guest comes, no matter which room the guest is, according to the rules, he must report to the master mother first. After all, the housemother is in charge of the feed, and how to arrange the food and clothing of the guests and visitors needs to be arranged by the housemother one by one.

When he was angry, He Xiang came to report: "Old lady, Mrs. Wu is here." ”

Lin restrained his anger, motioned to Xiang Tao to clean up the pieces of the teacup on the ground, and said, "Come in with her." She wants to see how Wu Niangzi says about this.

Wu Niangzi's usual smile was bright, and when she saw the Lin family, she gave a salute and said: "Old lady, there are two elders in the Tu family today, because it is Mrs. Xu's old acquaintance, the old lady invited her to talk, and ordered me to place them in the guest house. The old lady's orders, I don't want to disobey, this has just been settled, and I hurriedly came to explain to the old lady. ”

These words were not leaky, Lin's face softened a little, and he muttered: "The old lady is doing things more and more undisciplined now. ”

She didn't hear what Wu Niangzi said, Han Runiang's admission to the third cousin's uncle's family as a daughter was originally a secret of the Xu family, where could the Lin family intervene in it? She naturally understood the importance of it, so she had to round this scene.

"The old lady said, the third cousin and they came to Beijing to do business, and they stayed at our house for a few days. Their food and clothing are all from the 'Shoto-in'. Wu Niangzi said again.

Hearing that there was no need to pay money from the public, Lin's anger dissipated most of it, and he hurriedly said: "This Tu family member lives at home, I still have to pay a visit, and I have all the courtesies." ”

Wu Niangzi said: "The old lady said that it is just a side branch of the clan, so there is no need to visit." They traveled by car and horse, and the 'Shoto-in' side arranged it. ”

These words were in the heart of the Lin family, and she didn't want to meet this elder who appeared out of thin air.
