89. Sisters fight for relatives
When Master Fang thought of his eldest daughter who had married out, he couldn't help but feel heartache, and was persuaded by Chen: "Since this is the case, this family business cannot be agreed." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Naturally, it can't." Chen narrowed his eyes: "Yuhe has long said that her mother-in-law is a powerful person, but I'm afraid that she will wait for us to send a dowry of tens of thousands of taels of silver to fill the bottomless pit for their family." ”
Chen thought that he had been wary of Mrs. Hou, but he didn't expect her to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle, and almost made the husband and wife turn against each other. If it weren't for Yuhe going back to her parents' house first, Master Fang and her would have been fooled again.
Seeing that Master Fang's expression was slightly gloomy, Chen persuaded him: "The old man feels sorry for Ting girl, I know, why don't I feel distressed, if I say that the previous election delayed her, I admit it, but if I don't really worry about her, why should I come?" Find a family at will, whether you are deaf or dumb and marry in the past, don't I worry? ”
"Master, you also know that Ting girl has no biological mother, and her personality is well-behaved and sensible, she is really wronged, but she is afraid that she will not dare to go back to her parents' house like Yuhe, and when the time comes, she will definitely beat her teeth and swallow it in her stomach...... With her filial piety, how can we bear to be parents? Chan burst into tears.
Master Fang was silent, and only said in a half-loud voice: "Then you have to find a way to reject them." During a banquet yesterday, the Hou Ye said casually, saying that if there is a chance, he wants to be happy...... I'll let it go, I'm afraid that someone with a heart has already ......" He knocked his index finger on the post: "Although it doesn't say which girl it is, but when it comes to the right age, Ting girl is the oldest, and she should be ...... in order."
The version He Jiaxian heard was not like this, what she heard was that during a banquet yesterday, the two masters mentioned a few words of marriage through the strength of wine, and today the lord deliberately passed the time when a few young ladies asked for peace, which was already very abnormal, and after the ladies left, he also said something to his wife for a long time......
This is probably the marriage of Fang Yuting.
For a while, the entire Fang Mansion was discussing, although it was secretive when there was a master, but a few people still chatted happily in private.
In the afternoon, things took a turn for the worse, and Fang Yuyan knelt at the door of Heshoutang and was punished, for unknown reasons.
He Jiaxian didn't go out of the door all day after listening to Fang Qirui's words, only followed Jixiang to learn embroidery, and by the way, his ears were pricked up, listening to Mother Hu in the yard chatting blindly, and his coarse voice was very presumptuous.
Since that day, Hu's mother made her stunned without words, and He Jiaxian has always wanted to find a reason to drive her away, but if she left, there would be another one, treating the symptoms but not the root cause. In addition, Fang Qirui's description of Hu's mother was not worrying, so he delayed it all the time, but he didn't give her a good face. Mother Hu touched a few nails, and with the fear of Fang Qirui, she finally restrained a little.
Her heart moved, so she casually asked, "How long has Mother Hu been serving in front of Madame?" ”
Jixiang shook his head suspiciously: "The slave didn't bother to inquire, I only knew that she also had a girl, who was also on an errand in Heshoutang, and she laughed at people for three points, which was likable." ”
He Jiaxian squinted his eyes and smiled: "You go and call me to take a look." Jixiang wondered, He Jiaxian hurriedly said: "It's just a matter of seeing." ”
In less than an hour, I heard an unfamiliar female voice, laughing softly, and walking lightly all the way to this side.
He Jiaxian looked at a smiling little girl in front of him, but she was sixteen or seventeen years old, although she was not particularly outstanding, but her smiling face made people feel very delicate.
Mother Hu made a salute and said with a smile: "This is my girl Hongxuan, I don't know what the second grandmother commands?" ”
Hongxuan smiled and saluted, and the etiquette was very thoughtful.
He Jiaxian was surprised that Mama Hu, who had high cheekbones and pointed chins and a sour and mean face, could give birth to such a pleasing girl, and the red silk had already come over to look at the embroidered patterns before auspiciousness: "My sister is so skillful, the embroidered butterfly seems to fly out, my hands are stupid, I can't learn it, so angry that my mother scolded me for several days, saying that I raised a girl who couldn't even get shoes and socks to wear......"
Mother Hu looked at her daughter's lively appearance, and then looked at He Jiaxian, full of suspicions, not knowing what medicine she was selling.
According to common sense, He Jiaxian is a young grandmother who has no real power, she just needs to find a reason to push it over, anyway, Hongxuan is served by Mrs. Lady's yard...... It's just that she has her own selfishness, thinking that she often comes to Tinglan Courtyard for a walk, if she meets the second master and is taken care of, it will be a great creation.
Naturally, Madame's side doesn't need to say it, it must be eager. Over the years, Mrs. has been "well-intentioned" to the second master, everyone doesn't know what to say, but those with a little longer eyes can see it.
Therefore, he also deliberately found an excuse to bring people over to He Jiaxian, who knew that He Jiaxian just looked up and down a few times, and then smiled and rewarded a silver coin: "Very good at talking, now the second master is only Sydney alone to serve, I am afraid that it will be inconsiderate after all...... I still want to find a girl to follow, but I don't know who is suitable. ”
He Jiaxian sighed and put his heart to heart with Hu's mother: "Mom, you also know me, I don't go through my brain to do things, I was purely jealous last time, and I asked people to come over with a shy face." But now that you see Mengli, she is timid and careless, crying and annoying the second master all day long, and I often feel very guilty in my heart. Madame is afraid of me, and she must not take the initiative to give it to others. I don't have any nice people in the house......"
She lamented to herself: "In addition to those who are useless around me, it is your mother who can do it, I have a heart, but I am helpless to ......" She reluctantly glanced at Hongxuan a few times: "It's that I didn't think it through, I just thought that my mother was originally serving here, and if the girl came, it would be closer to ......"
"It's a thing that makes people like it when they look at it, but in the end it's to serve Mrs., I'm afraid that Mrs. won't allow it...... It's hard. After speaking, he looked at Hongxuan a few times: "It's a pity......"
Mother Hu heard that the dream thing almost smashed on her head, and she had no time to think about it, so she hurriedly said: "Madame will definitely agree, Madame already hopes that there will be a few more maids to serve the second master......"
He Jiaxian pretended to shake his head deeply: "I don't look like it, if that's the case, why did I ask my wife to tattoo a peach, and I gave it all at once?" ”
Mother Hu roared anxiously: "That's the peach tattoo, they don't use it......" Only then did she realize something, and she hurriedly shut up and swallowed the rest of the words into her stomach.
He Jiaxian twisted the silk thread on his fingertips, and when he saw that Mother Hu didn't speak, he sighed: "Madame will do what she says, and it is impossible to go back on her word, even if I have the heart...... Ay...... Forget it. asked Jixiang to send the two out, only to end up with the two of them looking at each other, depressed and excited.
When Fang Qirui came back in the evening, she took the initiative to go up to change Fang Qirui's clothes, and twisted the handkerchief to wash his face. ”
He Jiaxian said about Ai Ai's temptation of Hu's mother today, and concluded at the end: "I see that my father is a talent, since Mrs. knows all about your tricks, why doesn't he stop you from studying so that you can concentrate on studying for high school?" Knowing Chen's sinister intentions, He Jiaxian was reluctant to call her "mother" anymore.
Even Mother Hu knew that she was stuffing people into Fang Qirui's room, and Mrs. was happy to see it, which showed that the Fang Mansion knew it, but no one broke it, Master Fang was in charge of a huge business, and he was exquisite, how could he not see this simple routine?
"Because I don't want to." Fang Qirui opened his mouth lazily, and seemed to be in a good mood: "A few of them have been serving me since I was a teenager, and they are all emotional, how can they say that they will take it away?" He patted the empty seat next to him with a smile and motioned for He Jiaxian to sit over: "Therefore, she is willing to let these girls go, I am willing to ask for them, whoever disagrees, I will cry, make trouble, and hang myself......"
Master Fang mentioned it a few times, but was blocked back by Fang Qirui on the grounds of "transferring them away and not taking the exam".
He Jiaxian couldn't help but laugh out loud when he heard the ridicule he described: "So, I can successfully get people away, not because of the face that my wife gave me, but because of the face you gave me?" ”
Fang Qirui looked at her racking her brains, couldn't help but feel funny, and nodded her forehead: "Don't think about it, the cause and effect in the middle can't make sense in a few words, you are too shallow, the world is too tender, it's not a good thing to know more, just live your little life." ”
Seeing that he didn't want to say anything, He Jiaxian covered his head and felt a headache: "If I don't understand this, I won't be able to live my little life." ”
Fang Qirui found that he didn't know when, he was actually used to this kind of little intimacy, and rubbed her temples with his hand: "You don't need to understand, everything has me." ”
He Jiaxian was silent, flashing away like an electric shock, and Fang Qirui was lost and embarrassed. After a while, he pretended to have a sore arm and fell to the side: "Oops, the wound is not healed yet." ”
He Jiaxian didn't doubt him, and hurriedly leaned over to take a look, after all, it would take a hundred days to hurt his muscles and bones. Although Fang Qirui recuperated for a month, the doctor said that there was no major problem, but it was not all right.
Fang Qirui dodged away, with a look of shyness of a little daughter-in-law: "Don't want to take the opportunity to scare me!" ”
Ho Ka Yin: ......
After a few days, Coral came over to spread the word, saying that Ming'er and the Chen family were going to take the sisters to the Hou Mansion and asked He Jiaxian to prepare as soon as possible.
Early the next morning, Yuting was waiting for He Jiaxian at the gate of Tinglan Courtyard, and Jixiang saw that he didn't recognize it at first, so he covered his mouth halfway: "Second Miss is so beautiful." ”
Fang Yuting smiled at her with crooked eyebrows, and looked at He Jiaxian: "I'll wait for the second sister-in-law to come together, and arrange for the two of us to sit in a carriage today." ”
He Jiaxian was also amazed by Fang Yuting's careful dressing, I saw her wearing a pearl hair ornament, simple and elegant, picturesque eyebrows, red lips, wearing a green thousand-faced bamboo pattern long skirt, a pink belt around her waist, and a butterfly love flower purse.
Fang Yuyan must have not rested well after being punished yesterday, her expression was sluggish, she has always been bright and beautiful, she actually let the low-key Fang Yuting steal the limelight.
Seeing Fang Yuyan flying over several times, Fang Yuting didn't look at her like a nobody, and only helped He Jiaxian to get into the carriage, which flattered her.
Fang Yuting saw that she was uncomfortable, and said with a smile: "Second sister-in-law and me, don't be so angry, speaking of which, in the past, I was the most disadvantaged in the house, and they all looked down on me, after all, my biological mother died early and was an orphan girl, only when the second sister-in-law married into the mansion, I had a feeling of being connected to the same fate." The young and the old are orderly, I like the second sister-in-law, and it is appropriate to serve more. ”
In this way, He Jiaxian could not refuse, and talked and laughed along the way.
Fang Yuhe was already waiting at the door, looking at the carriage and horse team coming, Chen and Zhou's car, Fang Yuyan, Fang Yulu and Fang Yujing, Fang Yuting and He Jiaxian.
As soon as they met, Chen's face was full of joy, and he hurriedly took Fang Yuhe's hand and walked inside. Fang Yuhe glanced at Fang Yuting suspiciously, and when she saw her carefully dressed, she showed a somewhat knowing sneer.
On the way to come, He Jiaxian told himself that he would follow Zhou in everything he did, and ensure that he would not make mistakes today, so he only walked slowly with Zhou, looking at his nose and nose and heart.
Fang Yuhe muttered in Chen's ear: "Who arranged this frame today?" How is this arranged? ”
She has strict rules since she was a child, unlike He Jiaxian, who doesn't understand it at all: it stands to reason that there should be a car for several young ladies and a car for daughters-in-law, as for the Chen family, it is understandable whether she sits alone or her daughters-in-law and girls accompany her to serve.
Chen couldn't help but sneer: "Besides the second child, who else can be so capable?" Probably heard the wind, although her mouth was silent, do you see her breathless appearance? I must have thought that I had fallen into the eyes of your mother-in-law first. ”
Fang Yuhe muttered, "You also let her?" ”
"By it!" Chen smiled: "The grasshopper after the autumn will not be able to jump for a few days, she can do what she likes, and wait for her scenery for a while, and I don't know how to cry later." ”
Fang Yuhe covered her mouth and snickered: "She is quite well-informed, but she is also, she usually looks at everyone with an amiable appearance, but she can recruit people." ”
Chen sighed: "If it weren't for the fact that you went home last time to confess to me, I would really think that this is a good family business, and I think about marrying Yuyan, you know, she has always listened to me." ”
Fang Yuhe looked at Fang Yuyan's eyes red as if she hadn't slept well, and asked, "What's wrong with her?" ”
Chen was a little melancholy: "I heard the news yesterday from somewhere, and I begged me to bring her over......"
Before the words fell, the maid on the side reminded that it was coming, and the two of them hurriedly closed their voices, held their heads high and stopped talking.
Mrs. Hou was already waiting in the flower hall, along with several noble ladies, and Chen greeted each other one by one, complimenting each other for a long time, before calling several young ladies and daughters-in-law to salute.
When He Jiaxian was introduced, a noble lady looked at her several times, nodded and smiled without saying a word.
Fang Yuting is undoubtedly the most outstanding, Mrs. Hou praised her for a while, and then rewarded the jewelry one by one, before she sat down and ordered someone to serve tea.
Just chatting and chatting, he asked about the ages of several young ladies, and Chen knew that he wanted to lead the topic to business, so he glanced at Fang Yuhe.
Fang Yuhe said: "Mother, Brother Han is clamoring to see a few aunts, I'll take them to the back to have a look." ”
Mrs. Hou also had this intention and nodded her head in permission.
The joy that couldn't be concealed in Fang Yuting's face, accompanied by Fang Yuyan's vicious glaring at her, several people got up with their own thoughts.
