Chapter 55: Reunion
"Mama Zhou, mother, is she an old man?"
Early in the morning, Mrs. Wang's wife Fan took Mother Chen to her mother-in-law's yard to say goodbye. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"I've gotten up, Mrs. Tai, please come in." Mama Zhou gave a bow and replied with a smile.
Fan and Chen's mother glanced at each other, and Bendang walked in first.
When Chen's mother saw her wife enter the house, she walked to the side and laughed with the maids and ladies in the yard. "Rouge girl, you look really good in this dress today,......"
This Chen's mother turned out to be Fan's personal maid, and later married a housekeeper in the house, so she became Fan's personal mother and Fan's confidant.
Mama Zhou glanced outside the courtyard, then turned around and entered the house. It seems that the eldest lady is here to inquire about the news today.
Sure enough, as soon as Mama Zhou entered the inner room, she heard the voice of the eldest lady.
"Mother, Lei'er has been away from home for almost eight years, this time he comes back, do you think he will clean up the Thunder Courtyard where he used to live, or arrange a separate guest house?" Fan said as he personally served a tea cup to his mother-in-law.
"Well, the green tea that was gently sent back is really good," Mrs. Xie took a sip of tea, but did not answer.
Where did this eldest daughter-in-law come to ask about the courtyard, she came to test her attitude towards Meng. If he arranged for Zalei's family to live in the original Thunder Courtyard, it would be because he recognized Meng's identity and wanted to leave Meng's in Jiangzhou; If you live in the guest house, then everyone will naturally understand that Meng is just a passerby, and there is no place for her in this Wang family, and those sharp-eyed subordinates in the family naturally have a number in their hearts.
This was originally Dafang's own business, and the Fan family should have made his own decisions, but now he came to ask himself, it was nothing more than worried about Zare's attitude, afraid that his son would be separated from her. If it weren't for this, this Wang family's mansion would have a lot of courtyards, how could the Fan family come to find him early in the morning for this little thing. Want to let her mother-in-law come forward to be a wicked person, and fulfill her own motherly heart? This Fan is now more and more shrewd.
Mrs. Xie was not dissatisfied with this. A qualified family wife always has to be a little shrewd. I am over sixty years old, and I don't know how many years I can protect the Wang family. The burden of the family always had to be handed over to the eldest son and his wife.
Let's take care of this wicked man. As soon as Mrs. Xie wanted to speak, she saw the big girl Dew Drop beside her with a happy face and hurriedly ran in.
"Mrs. Tai, just now the eldest lord asked someone to pass the word over, saying that the eldest prince and his party have entered the city. I'm going home in less than an hour. ā
"What? Didn't you say a few days ago that it would take two days to arrive in Jiangzhou? Why did you enter the city gate at this time? Mrs. Xie also stood up happily when she heard this.
"Madame, sit down first, don't get too excited." Seeing this, Mama Zhou hurriedly helped Mrs. Xie to sit down, and said happily, "It must be the eldest prince who misses his grandmother and wants to surprise you, so I accelerated the trip and rushed back in advance." ā
"Eldest daughter-in-law, hurry up and make arrangements. Zareth and they're coming back. Mrs. Xie calmed down her mood and instructed Fan, "Today's lunch will be arranged in my courtyard, and let the boss and them all go back to the inner courtyard." ā
"Yes, Mother. The daughter-in-law went to the kitchen to make arrangements. When Fan heard that his two sons, whom he hadn't seen for many years, were coming back, he was so excited that he saluted and quickly retired.
Fan withdrew from Ningde Courtyard, then took Chen's mother to quickly give some orders, and walked straight to the big kitchen.
A few housekeepers in the kitchen saw the housewife and hurriedly saluted.
"Get up. Today, the eldest prince and they are going back to the house, and Mrs. Tai ordered that today's lunch be placed in Ningde Courtyard, and you should all prepare for it, but don't make a mistake. After Mrs. Xie finished speaking, she quickly reported the names of more than ten of her sons' favorite dishes, "These are all the favorite foods of your two sons in the old days, and they are all ready quickly." ā
After Fan finished speaking, Mother Chen, who was beside her, moved the corners of her mouth, just wanting to persuade something. "Forget it, you don't need to prepare the dishes just now." Fan himself ordered again, "It's better to prepare the dishes that Mrs. Tai and Miss Six like to eat, Miss Six has only been away from home for less than a year, you won't forget it." ā
"Miss Six's taste, the slaves and maids will naturally not forget, eldest lady, please rest assured." A room full of mothers-in-law hurriedly guaranteed.
Seeing this, Mrs. Wang's Fan sighed and helped Chen's mother walk out. It's not that she doesn't want to hurt her two sons, so she prepares more favorite meals for them who have been away from home for many years. It's just that in a family like them, there is a set number of dishes each time, and if they all prepare the dishes that their sons like, other dishes will not be served.
His mother-in-law, Mrs. Xie, has always loved the most is the orphan of the young uncle, this girl, this is the first time to leave home and return home, if there is no lightly favorite dishes at the reception banquet at noon today, the mother-in-law and her husband will not say anything, I am afraid that they will have an opinion on themselves. If because of this, I lost the favor of my mother-in-law and husband, but some of the small losses outweighed the losses.
The eldest lady of the Wang family, on the surface, is infinitely beautiful, but how can outsiders know that in fact, she can't make a mistake by half a step. Now he can't even prepare more meals for his son at the reception banquet that his sons love.
That's it, that's it, now that the sons have returned, the days will be long, and I will slowly cook them some favorite meals in the future.
When Chen's mother saw her wife's expression, she knew what she was thinking.
"Madam, the eldest son and the second son, they have been filial since they were children, they won't blame you."
"Well, let's go to Jingheju and have a look, and order someone to send the pair of crimson filigree amphorae that my mother's family sent. I liked such a bottle lightly originally. Fan Shi got out of the kitchen and hurried to Jinghe Ju.
"Yes, ma'am, the slave will do it at once." The big girl beside Fan's side, the cuckoo, hurriedly agreed.
As soon as Fan stepped into the door of Jinghe Residence, he saw his concubine Sun directing a bunch of maids and women to work inside.
"Brother and sister, why are you here?" Fan looked at the second wife of Wang, Sun, with a smile on his face. What she thinks in her heart, I'm afraid only she knows.
"Sister-in-law, I heard our master say just now that he was going back to his house today, and he was a little worried, so he asked me to go to Jinghe Ju to have a look." Sun smiled and saluted, "I know that my sister-in-law has always arranged it properly, and it will not go wrong, but my lord said it, and I can only come and see." ā
"Sister-in-law, you won't blame me for being troublesome."
"What the second brother and sister said, you can help me take a look, that's the best." Fan Shi took Sun's hand, "You also know, lightly they suddenly came back two days early, I am busy, thanks to my brother and sister, you can help come to Jingheju to have a look." ā
"Sister-in-law, everything is almost arranged here, and it's not too early at this time, let's go and wait for my mother."
"Good. It's really hard for my brother and sister. ā
"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? It's too late for me to be happy that I can help my family! ā
ā.ā¦..ā
While laughing, the two of them walked away.
