Chapter 251
Xiao Tang listened to Ying Lanfeng's sentence and was slightly surprised.
Many days have passed, Xiao Tang thought that this matter would be stopped, but he didn't expect that there would be such a turnaround, so he just agreed with a smile.
The decanting soup came in an instant, and Ying Lanfeng ate a bowl of wine, and the strength of the wine disappeared slightly, so he got up and went out to entertain the guests.
Xiao Tang was worried about Ying Lanfeng's intention to stay overnight, and when he saw that there were fewer guests outside, he took the time to go inside and wanted to discuss with Huaizhen.
simply didn't ask anyone to pass the word, stopped a girl, and inquired about Huaizhen talking to Zhao Ye in the East Courtyard, and he himself came to the East Courtyard familiarly.
The people in Ying Gongfu also knew that he was the new aunt, and he was respected, so no one stopped him. Xiao Tang came all the way to the East Courtyard, and when he saw that there was no maid outside the door, he coughed before stepping inside.
As soon as he entered the door, he heard some movement in Huaizhen's house, and Xiao Tang Yin smiled: "It's me, why don't you even have a girl at the door?" ”
Xiao Tang said as he lifted the curtain before he was about to enter, but when he looked up, he saw a strange girl standing in front of him...... It looks a little familiar.
Xiao Tang was stunned, immediately put the curtain down, pulled back, frowned, and said, "Who are you?" Why in the Huaizhen room? As soon as the words came out, he had already reacted in his heart: This must be one of the two righteous daughters of the Wang family that Ying Lanfeng received.
Sure enough, as soon as the curtain was set up in front of her, the girl had already walked out, saluted Xiao Tang, lowered her head and said, "Little Queen Huanxi, I've seen Tang Shilang." ”
Xiao Tang saw that it was really her, so he only lowered his eyes and asked, "Do you know where Tang San's young grandmother is?" ”
Wang Huanxi said: "My sister just sent the prince away. ”
Xiao Tang listened steadily, then stopped talking, nodded, turned around and walked out.
Before he went out, he saw a maid coming back in a hurry, and when he saw Xiao Tang, he hurriedly stopped and saluted: "The slave has seen Lord Tang." ”
Xiao Tang asked again, "Have you seen your girls?" ”
The maid said: "The girl accompanied the second grandmother and everyone at the banquet, and asked me to come back and talk to Miss Huanxi, she will not come back for a while, and I will talk to Miss again when I have time." "It turns out that because there are many guests here today, there are not enough people in the house, so there is only one maid left in the east courtyard, and the others are sent out to serve the guests.
Xiao Tang nodded, pulled his legs and went, and the maid went to Yu Ming Wang Huanxi without mentioning it.
Not to mention that Xiao Tang was in a hurry to find Huaizhen, only that Huaizhen sent Zhao Ye out, and suddenly heard that Li Xianshu was questioned by the old lady, so he came to the hall to check the place.
When Li Xianshu saw her ask about this, she smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just a trivial matter, and let's talk about it in public." ”
Huai Zhen saw that it was empty at the moment, so he asked again about the three thousand taels mentioned earlier.
Li Xianshu thought about it for a while, and finally said: "Your father told me not to mention these things to you...... Although your father is now in a high position, but it is only geometry, Ying Gongfu looks at the huge family, how can this house originally sit on the empty mountain, but now it is just looking at the big shelf, these years since I took over, secretly did a lot of thrifty methods, but it is also the so-called symptom but not the root cause, but the matter of spending money is one after another, this time your brother's matter, I and your father are naturally sure to take care of it properly, and it must be very decent...... But when the money on the books was taken into account, it was not possible to take out that much for a while. ”
Although she also vaguely knew that the accounts of the Ying Mansion were messy, and she was secretly a little worried, but Li Xianshu had always been so strong, she didn't even mention it, and Huaizhen also asked two words in private, and Li Xianshu only said that it was okay.
When Huai Zhen heard this, he sighed.
Li Xianshu said: "Don't blame your mother for not telling you the truth, it's your father who doesn't want you to know this...... It's just that we secretly think, who knows...... Uncle didn't know where to hear the wind, and quietly sent three thousand taels of silver to help the emergency, I and your father naturally can't ask for it, but my uncle said, this silver is your share, and it is used on Pei'er, it is also your mind, and you must be happy...... That's why we stayed. ”
Huaizhen nodded and said: "It should be given, since he sent it, my father and mother just accept it, and Hengzhi is not an outsider." It's just that I don't know the words 'I have a share too'. Huai Zhenyin pondered for a while, and suddenly thought of the lotus sachet that was all the rage a few days ago, but he only guessed in his heart, but he didn't say it.
Li Xianshu nodded, and didn't say much to Huai Jin.
If it's just that the house can't be opened, it's no wonder that others, it's just a family, but what annoys Li Xianshu the most is that a few days before Ying Pei got married, An Pin, who was waiting for the old lady, secretly told her the news: it turned out that the old lady had sent her own box of gold and silver utensils to the long house.
In the past few years, Li Xianshu has also seen clearly that although Ying Lanfeng is getting bigger and bigger, but Ying Taijun's mind has always been on Ying Meifu's body, and he naturally loves Chunhui more than Ying Pei, because Chunhui is too picky, so far he has not yet married, but Ying Pei got married first, but he was afraid that the old lady would not be useful in his heart, so he deliberately did this trick.
However, the old man favored his son, and others had nothing to say. Li Xianshu was only secretly not angry, and he had also told Ying Lanfeng that he would go out and find another place to live, but now Ying Lanfeng is the official to Shangshu, if he separates at this moment, it makes people feel like his wings are stiff, so he wants to leave the mansion, but it is still not appropriate, not to mention that even if he goes out to live, if he should be married today, and he will have another difficulty, unless it is not such a big deal.
Huaizhen heard Li Xianshu say it once, so he had to appease him, but Li Xianshu smiled again: "You don't have to worry about your mother, you and Yi'er sent it when there was a lack of silver before, Fang Cainiang was reprimanded by the old lady, but it was the child who blocked it for me, I see that the child is capable and smart, it is a rare one, with her in front of you, you can rest assured." ”
Huaizhen had also vaguely heard it before, and when he saw Li Xianshu praising Wang Huansha, he also smiled and said: "Sure enough, my father, this righteous daughter, recognizes the value." ”
Li Xianshu nodded and said, "When your father recognized his righteous daughter, I didn't really like it in my heart...... After all, this is just admitted, and they still have to find two suitable sons-in-law for them, and when the time comes, it will be two expenses, and they can't be extra frugal, otherwise people will feel that they are treated lightly, so I have always had a headache, but today I see this girl treating each other like this, but I really want to give them a good place. ”
When Huaizhen heard this, he also felt a little sad, and said: "There is no way to make money, but I am afraid that I will embarrass my mother again." ”
Li Xianshu didn't want to worry about herself, so she immediately cheered up, but said with a smile: "Don't worry, my mother will think about it...... Horizontal and vertical will not be hard to die, in this life, people must do everything possible to live. ”
Seeing her like this, Huai Zhen also smiled and said, "Mother is really ...... is also said that such a hard life in Taizhou has also come, thanks to my mother. Huai Zhen said, touching his heart, so he leaned on Li Xianshu's shoulder, relying on it in every possible way, refusing to leave.
Li Xianshu patted her arm, and suddenly thought of something again, so she said, "Don't go home tonight, just stay at home for the night?" ”
Huai Zhen said: "I'm naturally willing, but I have to ask Uncle Tang ......" Speaking of this, he was a little worried about Minli.
Li Xianshu said: "Don't worry, you just go and discuss." As he spoke, he brushed Huaizhen's sideburns again, and said, "Good boy, my mother will go and get busy first, and we'll talk again in the evening." ”
Huaizhen knew that she was indispensable outside, so he had to let go of Li Xianshu's arm and let her go again.
After Li Xianshu went, Huaizhen got up and was about to go out, but he saw Ying Yu coming with a dog baby, so he asked, "Do you want to stay at night?" I have just discussed with Tuwa, I want to stay in the house and go home tomorrow. ”
Huaizhen said: "I'm going to follow ...... Saburo consulted. ”
Ying Yu smiled and said, "Why don't you say it's your 'Uncle Tang'?" ”
Huai Zhen chirped: "It's all mothers, how is it good to be unobstructed, I'm afraid that I will teach the puppy baby badly in the future." After glancing at Ying Yu, he went out to call the maid to find Xiao Tang.
You look for me, and I look for you...... It was actually two miles apart, and it took a long time to meet, Huaizhen pulled Xiao Tang into the room, and complained quietly: "Where did I go, I looked for you for a long time, and I was so scared that I thought you were drunk again." ”
Xiao Tang said: "Do you know that I am also looking for you?" When I went to the East Courtyard before, you weren't there, but my father-in-law's righteous daughter was. ”
Huai Zhen said: "Yes...... Sister Huanxi? Yes, I heard from the maid that she went to talk to me, and because I was not available, she asked someone to go back and deliver the message. ”
Xiao Tang nodded and said, "When I left, I also met the girl who delivered the message...... Yes, why are you looking for me? ”
Huai Zhen told Xiao Tang about staying overnight, and asked, "Can you stay?" I'm worried about my family, and Minli's sister is home alone. ”
Xiao Tang said: "It's okay, my mother went home one step earlier, and I only asked my mother to accompany Minli, but it was just a night." You can rest assured. ”
Huaizhen listened to his comfort, and then he made up his mind, and suddenly remembered the silver, because he asked again: "Where did you get the silver for your father?" What else do you have my share? ”
Xiao Tang saw that he couldn't hide it, so he told Huaizhen about the sale of the lotus sachet, and also said the five thousand taels donated to the household, because he said: "These three thousand taels were later brought into the account, and I felt that our family didn't need them, so I simply added some to your brother's family affairs." ”
Huai Zhen listened to this call and sighed a few times, knowing that he didn't tell him about it before, because he was afraid that she would think about it again, and he had another kind of thoughtfulness.
Huai Zhen raised his eyes to look at him and asked, "How do you know that there is a shortage of these silver taels in the mansion?" ”
Xiao Tang said with a smile: "Although my father-in-law is in a high position, but he is only geometric, and I also know a little about the family situation in the capital that seems to be the mansion...... A few major events are tossed, and it is a little difficult to do. ”
Huai Zhen nodded, looked at Xiao Tang with a smile and sighed, "Uncle Tang is really omnipotent...... Dare to ask what else in this world you can't think of and guess? ”
Xiao Tang saw her smiling affectionately, so he said quietly: "What I can't think of is how beautiful the lady is, what I can't guess is how much the lady loves me in her heart." ”
Huaizhen couldn't imagine that his joke would cause him to say it again...... Such sweet words are really unheard of and unthinkable, and it is rare for him to say it so calmly and calmly.
Huai Zhen blushed suddenly, although he was ashamed, but he was even more infinitely happy, so he whispered: "Serious nonsense......"
Xiao Tang simply took her into his arms and kissed her on the face, Huai Zhen hurriedly pushed him away, and said, "Don't look at what place it is......" At this moment, the door was ajar, and people came and went outside, and there were footsteps from time to time.
Xiao Tang still hugged her, and after a while, he reluctantly let go, and said, "Since that's the case, I'll go out first." ”
Huaizhen nodded, and suddenly said, "Wait, wait a while." ”
Don Jr. stood still, not knowing how.
Huai Zhen looked at his face, couldn't help but smile, nodded and sighed: "If you go out like this, you won't have to be a person in the future." ”
Xiao Tang was puzzled, only raised his eyebrows, and Huaizhen took out a handkerchief and gently wiped it on the corners of his lips and cheeks.
It turned out that Huaizhen was wearing a lot of makeup because of his fate, and he also wore rouge and lipstick on his face, etc., and Xiao Tang didn't avoid taboos, so he just grinded his ears and temples...... I rubbed some red on my face.
Huaizhen's sharp eyes saw it, so he wiped him clean one by one, and then teased: "Look at this handkerchief, will you dare in the future?" If I hadn't seen it, I would have gone out like this, wouldn't I have been laughed to death? ”
Xiao Tang smiled: "What are you afraid of? I'm not afraid that they will die laughing, but I am afraid that they will die of redness! ”
Seeing that he was so lazy, as if he was not ashamed but proud, he shook his head with a smile and said: "That's it, the face of the Ministry of Rites has been lost to you, you are about to leave my eyes!" ”
Little Tang laughed, and when he saw her sighing and shaking his head like an "old-fashioned autumn", he leaned forward again, bowed his head quickly, and kissed her on the lips again.
Huaizhen couldn't dodge, he was afraid of being seen for a while, and he was annoyed that he had repeatedly taught him to do nonsense, but his heart was pounding, as if there were 10,000 flowers blooming, and the faint fragrance was drunk, so that people couldn't care about the surroundings.
In this way, Xiao Tang let go of Huaizhen for a long time, and had already eaten all the rouge paste on her lips, but he licked his lips unfinished, and said, "Do I still have it on my lips?" ”
Huaizhen's eyes seemed to be dripping, and he glanced at it again, and Xiao Tang said softly: "If there is still ...... Did the lady kiss me? ”
When Huaizhen heard this, he was ashamed and endured his annoyance, and said angrily: "If you make trouble again, I'm really annoyed." ”
Xiao Tang suddenly lowered his head again, and quickly pecked her lips again, and then turned around with a smile.
Huaizhen was stunned, but he cherished his dignity in the end, and said busily: "You wipe it yourself...... There's still a little ...... on that lip."
Xiao Tang walked to the door, looked back at her with a smile, bright and bright, but with three points of urgency, and said softly: "Who told you not to kiss me?" If you don't wipe it, you will be seen by all......"
Huaizhen saw him so bad, but he didn't know how true he was, if he said that he was reliable and calm, this person was naturally the most impeccable, but if he had a temper, such arbitrary and reckless behavior would also make people anxious and angry.
Huaizhen bit his lip and hated kung fu, Xiao Tang laughed loudly and went out.
In this way, at night, everyone ate another table of wine, and those who left the mansion also went, and everyone in the Ying Mansion rested one by one, and Li Xianshu was still supporting and urging everyone at the bottom to deal with the rest of the things properly.
That night, Ying Lanfeng went to bed early because he had eaten a few more cups.
Huaizhen and Li Xianshu and Grandma Xu talked for a long time before going back to the room to sleep, it turns out that the rules of this dynasty, if the married girl goes back to live in her mother's house, and the aunt follows, the two cannot sleep together, so Xiao Tang has another place to rest.
Let's say that it is night, Huaizhen washes and rests, but at this moment it has passed.
Huai Zhen sat by the window, holding his cheeks and looking at the moonlight outside, listening to the noise of drums outside gradually subsided, and for a moment everything fell silent, a little cold.
The maid smiled and came in to urge her to rest, and Huai Zhen asked quietly, "Is the third master sleeping now?" ”
Xiaohe and Ye Xue glanced at each other, and Ye Xue couldn't help but smile: "I probably fell asleep a long time ago, do you want the slave maid to take a look?" ”
Huai Zhen said: "It's not necessary, I'm just asking casually." After saying that, she went to bed, Xiaohe and Yexue put a tent for her, and went to sleep outside.
Huai Zhenyin also socialized all day, and it was late again, so he fell asleep very quickly, but although he was asleep, his mind was very clear, and in a trance, he heard the laughter of a child in his ears.
Huaizhen thought: "Could it be that the dog baby is laughing?" As soon as he thought about it, he thought again: "No, it's not a dog, this laugh is louder." ”
In a flash, the night suddenly turned into a half-day in front of him, Huaizhen looked around blankly, and suddenly understood: "Didn't I rest in the mansion tonight, how did I return to the Tang Mansion again?" Suddenly, I heard the laughter coming from the front, Huaizhen heard it, and felt a burst of joy in my heart, but I saw a child running towards him, Huaizhen saw that the child was born, it seemed to be Ling Xiao, but it was not Ling Xiao, but he liked it very much, and he was busy leaning over to pick him up, just smiled and said: "Baby, good baby!" ”
