Before dinner, Zhen Wenyi and his wife also came, and when they asked, they learned that they came after going to Xile Hutong first, and they came here to eat. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The fourth wife smiled and asked people to bring Brother Xuan'er, Brother Ye and Sister Rong in to greet them.
Zhen Wenyi hugged Brother Xuan with joy, although the naΓ―ve Brother Xuan was shy, she kept letting Zhen Wenyi hold her, only occasionally looked up and looked at her grandmother pitifully, but the fourth wife looked at her with a smile on the side, and didn't pay attention to her grandson's eyes for help.
Zhen Wanyi looked pitiful and snatched it out, "Okay, okay, look at your affection to make Brother Xuan embarrassed." As he spoke, he ripped off Brother Xuan'er's shirt and cleaned it up.
Brother Xuan'er blushed, "Aunt Xie Jiu." β
Zhen Wenyi reluctantly glanced at Brother Xuan'er, "Brother Xuan is really beautiful, he looks like the sixth brother." Whether it's temperament or not, it's up to people. β
Zhen Wanyi glanced at it, and seemed to point out: "You mean that my child has a bad temperament, so you can't help it." β
Zhen Wenyi pouted, looked at Brother Heng'er who was standing aside obediently and smiled, and immediately squinted and smiled: "How can there be, your Brother Heng'er is well-behaved and sensible, Brother Jue'er is innocent and cute, Sister Qiong'er is delicate and lovely, all of them are good, I like it very much." β
The corners of her mouth twitched one by one, Brother Heng could still hug her when she was a child, only since she was two years old, she was like a little adult, except for Zhen Wanyi, a mother who can hug and hug, everyone else is not allowed to get close, a few times she hugged it unbelievingly, but was said by Brother Heng, "Aunt Eight, what kind of incense powder do you use, it's good to wash your nose." β
After being embarrassed, she didn't dare to hug her, but Brother Heng seemed to eat her thoughts, and no longer avoided her, but as soon as she got close, she would rub her nose and scare her to stand far away.
So much so that Brother Jue and Sister Qiong had psychological shadows and she didn't dare to hug them.
When he saw Brother Xuan, he thought of his son of the same age, and he hugged him in his arms for a good meal.
The fourth wife understood Zhen Wenyi's thoughts, "Is Brother Hao still with your mother-in-law?"
Zhen Wenyi lowered her eyelids, "Yes, but I should be back in Beijing at the end of this year." β
"That's good, talk to your mother-in-law at that time, see if you can keep Brother Hao in Beijing, and then the child should also go to school." β
Zhen Wenyi didn't seem to want to talk much about this topic, "Let's talk about it when I come back." The fourth aunt went to Beijing this time to handle the marriage of the eighth brother, if there is anything you need help with, although the fourth aunt commanded, the ninth sister is busy in her house, I am an idler, you just have to send it. β
The fourth lady pursed her lips and smiled: "Okay, Auntie will not be polite to you." β
After a lively dinner, everyone took their leave.
After a day of rest, Zhen Wanyi set up a family banquet in the house on the second day, invited the third and fourth rooms to the house, and also invited the Xu family to accompany her.
The fourth wife brought people through the house early, Zhen Wanyi led people directly to the direction of the Mei Courtyard, this was the first time the fourth wife saw the imperial concubine, and pulled Zhen Wanyi a little nervously, "This imperial concubine is not good to get along with, this time you have to bow and kowtow, right?"
Zhen Wanyi raised her head and swept around, "Mother, don't worry, the imperial concubine is easy to get along with, just meet and do a regular courtesy." β
The fourth lady nodded, but her face did not relax a little, but Mama Huang on the side persuaded: "Don't worry, madam, the slave maid has seen the imperial concubine a few times, and she is kind." β
The fourth lady glanced at it, hooked the corners of her mouth slightly, thinking about how Mama Huang could be the same as her, Mama Huang is just a servant, the imperial concubine naturally doesn't need to say anything, just be generous, but she and the imperial concubine are in-laws, and it is inevitable that the imperial concubine will not have the idea of pressing her.
It wasn't until I entered the Plum Courtyard that I saw the Empress Dowager and Concubine at the door, and I felt a little more at ease, and I greeted him with a smile on my face, and bent my knees, "The women ...... people"
Before he finished speaking, the princess helped her up, held her hand and said cordially: "What kind of ceremony did the family see, but it was too much to see, I have been looking forward to this day for a long time, and I have always wanted to personally say thank you to my in-laws, thank you in-laws for marrying such a good daughter as Wan'er into our family." β
The fourth lady's smile deepened, and her eyes were full of kindness and softness, "The imperial concubine is polite, Wan'er often writes to me and always says that you treat her like your own daughter, and I will be jealous when you say it." β
The Empress Dowager also smiled so much that her eyes narrowed, and a few folds were squeezed out of the corners of her eyes, making her face even softer.
Zhen Wanyi hurriedly said: "Mother, mother, let's go into the house and talk." β
The Empress Dowager pulled the fourth lady inside, "Look at my memory, I just care about being happy, my in-laws will come in quickly, let's sit down and talk well." β
After entering the west side room, he pulled the fourth wife to sit on the low couch.
Mama Gui personally served tea.
Zhen Wanyi introduced several nephews and nieces to the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine saw them one by one and gave them a bunch of appreciation and meeting gifts.
Especially when he saw Brother Xuan'er, he pulled him into his arms and hugged him, "This is the eldest son of the sixth uncle, he looks really handsome, and he looks like a gentle character." The wife of the in-law is so blessed, a handsome family. β
The fourth lady pursed her lips and smiled: "You don't look back at the handsome guys and pretty sisters standing in the row of your house, it's really enviable." β
The Empress Dowager looked back at Brother Heng's three brothers and sisters, and smiled brightly, "Hehe, it's all good." β
Sister Qiong'er saw Brother Xuan being held in her grandmother's arms, looked up and down curiously, and suddenly shouted, "Brother Xuan." Then he ran over and took Brother Xuan'er's hand, "Brother Xuan, I miss you so much." β
Attracting laughter from the room, Brother Heng squinted while laughing, "Grandmother, grandson take cousins and younger brothers and sisters to Qingyi Water Pavilion to play, you and grandmother have a good talk." β
The Empress Dowager let go of Brother Xuan'er, "Go, our Brother Heng'er has grown up and knows how to receive guests." β
Brother Heng pulled his sister over, "Sister, let the nurse carry you away." β
Sister Qiong'er looked at Brother Xuan'er, "No need, brother, I'll accompany you and Brother Xuan." β
Brother Heng looked at Sister Qiong and said with a smile: "Sister, let the nurse take you to get some toys to Qingyi Water Pavilion, my grandmother gave you a box of sulfur glass beads, and my brother will play with you later." β
Sister Qiong'er's eyes lit up, it was rare to see her brother at this time on weekdays, and she was so happy that she forgot everything when she heard that her brother wanted to play with her, so she hurriedly let go of Brother Xuan'er's hand and ran to the nurse, "Nurse, go, take the beads." β
The nurse wanted to say very much, in fact, she could go and get the glass beads alone, but after looking at Xiao Shizi, who was laughing, she didn't dare to say a word, so she hugged Sister Qiong and walked out.
Zhen Wanyi tilted her head and stared at Brother Heng, this guy is really stingy.
"Brother Heng, today you are the little master, but you have to greet your cousin and cousin. β
Brother Heng smiled and said, "Don't worry, concubine, my son knows." β
