When Mrs. Qi heard the words of the fourth wife, she was even more sad, and she wailed again, "It's all my old woman's sin, in order to save that few dollars, I insisted on replacing the duck with a hen, which hurt my son, why didn't Lord Yan take me away." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The fourth wife was busy holding people, "Mrs. in-law, so far, it won't help you to say anything else, but it will make my aunt feel uncomfortable, the most important thing now is to comfort my uncle, my uncle is good at learning, and if you study for a few more years, you will be more sure of the next subject." Anyway, I'm still young, so our family is not in a hurry. ”

Zhen Ruyi brought hot water in, "Mother, you can freshen up first." ”

Waiting for the old lady Qi, and taking Xiang Aya to prepare lunch, Zhen Wanyi saw it and gave Wei An a look, "Go to the restaurant to book a table and come over." ”

After speaking, he walked to the kitchen, and as soon as he arrived at the door, Zhen Ruyi hurriedly stopped her, "Ninth sister, don't come in, it's dirty here, don't stain your skirt and shoes." ”

Zhen Wanyi saw a small kitchen, complete with utensils, dustpans and bamboo blue, large and small, hung all over a wall, Zhen Ruyi saw it, her face was uncomfortable, "When it snows in winter, the vegetables in the capital are expensive, so we will dry a lot of dried vegetables every year." ”

Zhen Wanyi nodded, "Seventh sister, don't be busy, I asked Wei An to go to the restaurant to book a table, it's rare for my mother to come over, don't be busy, accompany me to talk." ”

Zhen Ruyi looked at a few side dishes cleaned up by Xiangya on the stove, and wiped her hands, "Then I'll give you the silver later." ”

Zhen Wanyi glared, "What are my sisters talking about, they are too polite and rusty, if it is the eighth sister, she is afraid that she will have to order a few favorite dishes in person." ”

Zhen Ruyi also smiled and frowned, but she still thanked her sincerely, "Thank you so much for today's incident, Ninth Sister, my heart is much more down-to-earth as soon as my mother comes." ”

Zhen Wanyi smiled, "Your mother-in-law's sprinkling appearance can only be dealt with by her mother, and at that time, her mother also said that this old lady Qi has a very strong temperament, and the seventh sister may have to suffer some grievances, but the seventh sister is still good, as long as the seventh sister in high school will come out." ”

Zhen Ruyi's eyes were red, "I had a good intention, I wanted to let my husband make up for my body, so I asked the eighth sister for the recipe for Wuzhen soup, and the eighth sister kindly sent the medicine caught by the imperial pharmacy directly, and I asked Xiangya to take the silver to buy Huai duck, but my mother-in-law insisted on stopping her, saying that there was an old hen at home, and it happened that she would no longer lay eggs, and the same was true with the old hen." In fact, I was also a little worried at that time, and wanted people to go to Jiafu to ask, but my mother-in-law persuaded me to go down, saying that I was afraid that others would think that our family couldn't even eat a duck. It's all my fault, if I had been firm at that time, Xianggong would not have suffered this calamity. ”

Zhen Wanyi sighed, "How can I blame you for this, you are also kind, the sixth brother's mother at home is also trying her best to replenish her body, every day ginseng bird's nest continues, this is how people also look at the weight loss, you also saw it today, isn't it much thinner than before? The seventh brother-in-law was killed by this catastrophe, it is not fate, after three more years, he will definitely be able to go to high school in the next subject, and get a good grade.

The sixth brother and the eighth brother-in-law have to participate in the test, plus the seventh brother-in-law, if all three of them win, it will also be a headache. You also know that there are people in the court who are good officials, but there are three people at once, the sixth brother is his own brother-in-law, Jia Fu was kind to the prince before, and the seventh brother-in-law is a classmate and brother-in-law, so it is not good to help anyone or not? It is not good to help anyone first and then help anyone? If the seventh brother-in-law waits for the next subject, the prince will devote all his energy to helping the seventh brother-in-law, and it is not necessarily weaker than the first in this subject. ”

Zhen Ruyi's heart was relieved, she looked at Zhen Wanyi and said with a smile: "Hearing you say this, it makes me think that it is a good thing that Xianggong does not participate in the test this time." You, this little mouth is really good at coaxing people. ”

Zhen Wanyi pursed her lips and smiled: "I'm also telling the truth, as soon as the truth is said, you can also figure it out, why do some of the Jinshi who have won the first place in each subject have to be laissez-faire, and some have to stay in Beijing? Some of the laissez-faire officials are rich lands, and some are places of poor mountains and bad waters? Some people have stayed in the position of a seven-grade county magistrate for many years, and they can't mention their political achievements? Isn't there no one above? You, Eighth Sister, I am both Zhen sisters, so we should support each other, and they men must help each other and grow together, but this growth also takes time. Jiafu has more connections in comparison, so the eighth brother-in-law should be the easiest one, and the sixth brother and seventh brother-in-law are more difficult, so it is better to come one by one. ”

Zhen Ruyi smiled, in the past, her biggest wish was to have a home of her own, to be able to make her own life, without having to rely on others, but later found that her life was an extremely difficult thing, firewood, rice, oil and salt opened her eyes and asked for money, especially after coming to the capital, the silver flowed out like flowing water. Xianggong is studying, everything has to be close to him, food, clothing, pen and ink can not be shortened by him, the difficulties of the family can not be told to him, afraid that he will be distracted by his studies, everything can only rely on her and her mother-in-law to worry, and then the mother-in-law directly handed over the house to her, but the silver did not take out a penny, her support is becoming more and more difficult, and the money in the box is about to run out.

Whenever the days are difficult, her biggest comfort is Xianggong's studies, and the upcoming exam makes her full of confidence in the future.

Wait another three years, but what will she do to maintain her daily expenses in these three years? After that she will have to sell her dowry jewelry. Sighing, "I can only wait for another three years now." ”

Zhen Wanyi smacked her lips, she wanted to comfort again, but she didn't know where to comfort her, how many three years does her life have? Not to mention the economic situation of the Qi family, "If the seventh sister has any difficulties, just come to me, as long as you survive the past few years, you will get better." ”

Zhen Ruyi nodded, looking at the bright sunshine outside through the open door, the light was so bright, but so far away, as if she could grab it as soon as she stretched out her hand, but found that what she caught was nothingness in one hand. "I know, ninth sister, don't worry, I will live a good life, as long as I get through the past few years. ”

When Wei An took the banquet from the restaurant, the old lady Qi in the main room had already returned to normal, chatting with the fourth wife, and the two tables were sent to the east wing, and Zhen Mingjie accompanied Qi Changming to eat. A table was placed in the main room, and the lunch, which was not too dull or lively, was quickly used up, and Zhen Wanyi left with the fourth wife.
