97. Ninety-seven
The people of the Tianxing Dart Bureau looked for it very smoothly, such as Ji Ming sent Xia Yin to the house in the north of the city to find some winter clothes and clothes for Su Sanniangzi to take to Chenzhou, but secretly asked Xia Yin to run a trip to the Tianxing Dart Bureau, and soon found a pair of brothers and sisters, both of whom were thin and small, and their appearance was not good, but Xia Yin tried it himself, and his martial arts were very good. Ruxi immediately made a decision, and gave double the price of the dart, and at the same time asked the Tianxing Dart Bureau to send two boxes of gifts to Jingchuan City in Chenzhou, covering people's eyes.
In the blink of an eye, it was July 21, Pu Yu's thirty-eighth birthday. Ruji didn't want to go too much, but in the first year of leaving the cabinet, she didn't even come to her door on her father's birthday, so she couldn't get over it in the end. After struggling for a few days, he reluctantly took two dark satin materials as a congratulatory gift, and ran away with Chen Hao to Pu's house.
As soon as she entered the door, Ru Xi felt something different.
The first few times, either depressed, everyone was listless, or the atmosphere was tense, and I didn't know what kind of situation was going to happen at home. Although some things have little to do with being a subordinate, but in the end, under the same roof, I still don't care at all.
But this time, Ruji's first feeling was that she seemed to be back to the state she was in almost half a year ago, that is, when the pressure of the Yan family had not yet made the Chi family aware of the crisis. To put it more bluntly, it seems that the Pu family has returned to its earlier state of "not bad money", which can be seen from Pu's daughter-in-law and the maids and servants who come and go.
However, after entering the main courtyard, the faces of Qiu's mother and Shuangcian and others were not as festive as those who were waiting outside. If you calculate the time, you will probably understand. Pu Yu, who has been editing from the five-grade Hanlin for a thousand years, has not been promoted, and there is no industry in the family that can suddenly increase a lot of inputs, so how can he be well-off overnight? Naturally, it depends on windfalls, and the only possible windfall of the Pu family in this year was brought by Aunt Chao's younger brother Chao Xing when he entered Beijing.
Then it's no wonder that the whole family is happy, a vassal and elegant face-loving person like Pu Yu is actually willing to reward his subordinates with a lot of money. But Chi's family, Qiu's mother and others naturally can't laugh, what wives and concubines are different, whoever is rich is the uncle, this is the reality.
Ru Ji didn't want to see the Pu family more, so she arrived relatively late, and Pu Quan and the housekeeper lady welcomed them into the main hall together, and the family banquet had been set up. In addition to Ru Xi and Chen Hao, people other than Ru Xi also arrived, not only Ruyan Rushu, the two sisters who had become enemies in their hearts, arrived at the same time, but even Chi Song's brother Chi Song's whole family was basically all present, only Shuang'e did not arrive, and the rest of the people were also together.
After greeting each other and sitting down, Ru Xi went to carefully look at everyone's current outfit and expression. Basically, Pu Yu's mood seems to be good, for him, the turmoil and scandal crisis of Yiqiē have passed, Ru Ji has become the daughter-in-law of General Yipin, although Ru Yan Rushu has not been married for the time being, but the two daughters are still young, and everything is behind closed doors, there is no rumor outside, and his concubine has two sons, and the lintel of the Pu family is very safe for the time being.
As for the Chi family, Ruyan and Rushu sat on the left and right, and the two sisters were now haggard, even if they changed into new clothes and new jewelry, they were all dressed up carefully, but they still saw that they were not energetic. Although the two sisters attended the meeting at the same time, although they did not provoke each other or say anything unpleasant, they occasionally met with a touch, as if the hatred and anger in each other's hearts would be revealed after looking at each other for a long time.
In this situation, the Chi family can't even maintain a fake smile, and in comparison, Aunt Chao, who is accompanied by the two sons of filial piety and filial piety, can be regarded as radiant.
At the same time, it seems that the Chi family's wife Geng Shi, who seems to have a lot of confidence when greeting Ru Ji and Chen Hao, and is especially close to Ruyan when she speaks.
But Ruyan doesn't seem to appreciate it very much, although she can't be regarded as explicitly contradicting or throwing off Geng's family, but she can also see that she can hide and hide, and she can't answer if she doesn't answer.
At this time, Ru Ji guessed a rough idea, and it is estimated that the Geng family won a big victory in the later tug-of-war with the Chi family, so that he has this style now.
Sure enough, after two rounds of dishes, Geng said to Ruxi with a strong show-off tone: "That's right, aunt and grandmother don't know yet, right?" Our family is going to kiss and kiss again. ”
Ru Xi glanced at Ru Yan, whose face was obviously stiff, and replied casually: "Well, I haven't heard of it yet." ”
Geng smiled: "I think your second sister is shy!" Our family Zhu Gui has already married Ruyan! ”
Although looking at Geng's previous appearance, Ru Xi had already guessed the ** score, but when she heard Geng say it in person, and Chi and Ruyan didn't make a sound, Ru Xi was still surprised in her heart and turned to Chi: "Really?" Congratulations. ”
Chi's barely squeezed out smile was more ugly than crying: "That, well." ”
Ruyan lowered her head and remained silent.
Rushu didn't speak, but her eyes drifted in the direction of Ruyan, and she could still see that there was some schadenfreude in it.
"Also, our family Cuiliu," Geng covered his mouth and smiled, "We should also be closer to my aunt and grandmother, maybe there will be a chance to be a family in the future." ”
This matter is not surprising, she has thought about it since Mrs. Shi asked her about the situation of the Chi family, these two people are actually compatible in all aspects, this is probably the legendary Wang Ba with mung beans, the two families get together, just don't have to harm others. Shi Zhonglang doesn't say anything else, he is still quite rich, the Chi family should be satisfied, and his name is very good.
On the whole, the atmosphere of this meal is really not very good, but Ru Xi was originally a scene in the past, and it was just a matter of eating a few bites to watch the excitement.
Soon in August, General Shi Ben and Su Sanniang began to prepare their luggage and various errands for Chenzhou. Mrs. Shi mentioned two sentences in the middle, and the time for the third lady to serve her mother-in-law after entering the door was too short. General Shi Ben still has a consistent upright style, and his answer is simple and neat: "It has been fifteen years since Ah Rong's death, and his son is now continuing to live in Chenzhou. If your mother is in Beijing and is not served by your eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, do you want to go to Chenzhou with your son? There are also four entrances in the Chenzhou house, and we will give you the main courtyard. ”
Although theoretically, Mrs. Shi can ask Su Sanniang to stay in Beijing and fulfill her filial piety. But General Shi Ben's attitude was really tough, and although the second Mrs. Shi still had some provocative words from time to time, Master Shi and his wife didn't want to offend the third master again. How many more years can an old lady live? Once the old lady is gone, the Shi family will be separated from the three rooms, and whether the long room can borrow the light of the three rooms at that time depends on the friendship at this time.
Mrs. Shi Er is a little more confident, and in the end, she also relies on Shi Renlang to study, although the ranking of Chunyu is worse, it is also a young man. If there is a good fortune in the autumn palace examination, the future still depends on yourself. The two sons under the knee of Shi San are both generals in front of the Chenzhou army, and now Qibei Pass has returned to Dasheng, and the Chenzhou border is quite peaceful. General Shi Ben has a loyal personality and attaches great importance to affection and righteousness, and when Shi Renlang has a chance, even if he had some small grievances before, it is impossible for General Shi Ben not to mention this nephew who is the only one with a great future in the court.
Of course, the person in the world who firmly believes that Shi Renlang has a great future and is limitless is probably only Mrs. Shi Er.
All in all, Mrs. Shi's protest was ineffective, and General Shi Ben and Su Sanniang's itinerary to move to Chenzhou was still being prepared in an orderly manner.
At the same time, there was also good news from Huanningbo Mansion, the three-room eldest daughter-in-law, Minglu cherry melon, was ripe, gave birth at full-term, and gave birth to a white fat baby boy of seven pounds. According to the customs she remembered, Ruxi prepared a thick gift to send to Yanfu to congratulate. This child is the eldest grandson of the third room, and also the great-eldest grandson of Huan Ning Bo Yan Xingyuan, and now there are only two great-grandson ladies in the house, both of whom are the daughters of Yan Mao, the eldest son of the prince Yan Che, and the great-grandson is still the first, and the celebration of Huan Ning Bo Mansion is naturally grand.
The Shi family and the Yan family can now be regarded as a turning point, and the post of washing the third was directly sent to the third room of the Shi family, and asked Su San to celebrate with Ru Xi. Who knew that the night before going out, Su Sanniang suddenly began to vomit and discharge, although the situation was not too strict, and after inviting Lang Zhong overnight, he was also a little more stable, but in the end he couldn't go out as a guest. Ru Xi originally wanted to refuse the Yan family's post, but she couldn't get the courtesy, and took care of Su Sanniang at home, but Su Sanniang insisted several times that she was fine, so she still asked Ru Xi to go.
Although Ru Ji agreed, she was uneasy in her heart, and quietly told Magenta and Pharma to pay special attention, and secretly arranged for the two little girls Xiancao and Lingzhi, who were now more and more clever, to pay attention to the movements of the rest of the Shi family, and then took Xia Yin and Shuangying to Huan Ningbo's Mansion. Thinking about putting down the gift and taking a look at Ming Lu Sakura and the little boy, he hurried back to Shi's house to take care of it. However, as soon as I entered the three-room courtyard of the Yan family, the first thing I saw was the tearful Yan Yuan, and inside the Yan family's door, a big storm was about to start again.
