In the middle of November, Yueyao received a New Year's gift from Mingzhu from Suzhou, and in addition to the New Year's gift, everyone also had a gift.

Yueyao's gift was embroidery, and when Yueyao saw the exquisite embroidery in her hand, she exclaimed: "I have always felt that my embroidery skills are good.

Xiang Wei's gift was Biluo Spring Tea, and Xiang Wei had some regrets: "Biluo Spring? It would be nice if it was a hairy crab, I heard that the clear water crab produced in Kunshan, Suzhou, has a large fat body, a white belly, golden claws and yellow hair, a greasy meat, and a vigorous limb, which is very delicious.

Yue Yao smiled and said, "When we go over there in two years, you'll have enough to eat."

It's delicious, but it's just so far away, even if you want to send the pearl, it will become a dead crab in the capital.

Xiang Wei is looking forward to the trip to Jiangnan: "The flavors and snacks of Jiangnan are famous all over the world, and when I go to Jiangnan, I must eat enough."

In addition to those exquisite brocades, there are also jewelry, the jewelry is worn by Kexin at this age, and the jewelry given by Mingzhu is not particularly valuable, but each is very exquisite.

After reading the gift given by Mingzhu, Xiang Wei said: "It is said that in three years, the Qing Governor's Mansion has 100,000 snowflakes of silver, and Niu Yanghui has served two terms in Suzhou, and his family must have saved a lot of money. In addition to the Chinese New Year, Mingzhu also returned with gifts in the middle of autumn, while An Zhichen did not send anything back.

Yue Yao couldn't help but laugh: "Men and women are not the same, and there is no comparison.

When I came back, but I sent a silver ticket back, according to the actual use, the silver ticket is more cost-effective, and the thing is sent so far, and the freight is a lot of money.

Xiang Wei despised Yueyao the most: "What do you mean to save freight?" Feelings: Isn't it a waste for you to send so many things to the northwest? Although the northwest is not as good as Jiangnan, there are many skins there, so he didn't think of sending some skins back to make clothes for your mother?"

Yueyao didn't want to argue with Xiang Wei, and the more she argued, the more energetic Xiang Wei became: "You pick what you like, and the rest will be sent to the warehouse, it's the New Year, and you have to be busy again." ”

In the afternoon, Yueyao got the news that Tingzheng had returned, Tingzheng was actually going to Haikou this time, and as for what to do, Yueyao didn't know, and she didn't ask.

In the evening, Ting Zheng came to visit Yueyao and her four nephews.

The three Sheng brothers are now speaking very well, but Kexin taught them to call them Uncle Tingzheng, and the three of them shouted in unison: "Uncle......

Tingzheng was still very rare with his nephews, and gave all the gifts he brought, and Yueyao didn't stop him.

After the child saw the ceremony, she went down, and Yue Yao frowned and said, "What is the matter, it's only been four months, why did you lose so much weight?"

Ting Zheng smiled: "It's okay, Yangyang will come back." "Ting Zheng came over this time, and there was one more thing to discuss with Yue Yao, that is, Ting Zheng wanted to release it.

Yue Yao felt that it was good to let it out: "Did the Nine Emperor Princes agree?" If the Nine Emperors do not agree, any thoughts will be in vain.

Ting Zheng nodded: "I told the Nine Emperor Princes what I meant, and the Nine Emperor Princes agreed, but it is not easy to find a suitable vacancy, and it will take a while to release it." Ting Zheng thought a lot about it during this period, and the more he thought about it, the more unpleasant he felt in his heart, and at the same time, he also made him soberly aware that if he stayed in Beijing any longer, he would not be allowed to be thought that he was a soft eater.

Yue Yao didn't know that Ting Zheng was so entangled, she just thought that it was good to be released, and it was very exercised: "Your daughter-in-law is pregnant, and if you want to release it, you have to wait until she gives birth to a child." ”

Ting Zheng remembered what Ma Peng said, and his heart was sour: "Sister, I was not good that day, if I hadn't invited you over, I wouldn't have let you be so wronged, sister, there will be no more in the future."

Yes, it's all because he is useless that his sister is tired of those grievances.

Yue Yao smiled lightly: "With your words, my sister is also satisfied." Go back early, and wait for you to come over for a meal one day. "Yue Yao doesn't like Lin anymore, but now that Lin is pregnant with a child, she can't worry about a pregnant woman.

Women's intuition is very keen, Lin Qinghan soon noticed that Tingzheng was beginning to be cold to her, and within a few days, Lin Qinghan was a little panicked, and cried to Mrs. Lin:

Got someone out there? I went to look for him for ten days and stayed in the study every day, and he didn't have anything to say to me.

Mrs. Lin soothed: "What did you say, son-in-law went out to do business, where did the woman come from?" Don't get cranky.

Mrs. Lin talked to Lin Qinghan for a long time, anyway, it means that Lin Qinghan should be low and small, and stop being petty, in fact, Mrs. Lin roughly knew in her heart that Tingzheng must be uncomfortable because of what happened last time, so she will be cold to her daughter, and now the only way is to coax Tingzheng first, let her son-in-law reconcile in the middle, and things will not be frozen all the time.

Lin Qinghan listened to Mrs. Lin's words, bowed down in front of the court, and was considerate in everything, and behaved very virtuously.

Ting Zheng really liked Lin Qinghan, otherwise he would not have insisted on marrying Lin Qinghan against Yueyao's intentions, but at this time, seeing Lin Qinghan admit his mistake and hold his stomach again, Ting Zheng's heart softened: "You go and apologize to your sister, if your sister forgives you, this matter will be over."

Lin Qinghan was unwilling, and Tingzheng's face changed and he walked away.

Lin Qinghan felt aggrieved.

Lin Qinghan's nurse Shi Pozi persuaded: "Girl, you have finally made my aunt angry, if you don't apologize to your aunt and grandmother, your aunt will definitely be angry, girl, aunt and grandmother can't be offended."

How do you think about it, although the Lian family did not agree to this marriage at first, but since the girl got married, the Lian family has not done anything, why the girl is so hostile to the Lian family, just like the last time the girl accused the Lian family of scolding, Shi Pozi felt that her own girl was stunned.

Lin Qinghan was unwilling: "I'm not wrong, why do you want me to apologize to her?" Don't be stupid for her, even Yueyao is clear about the things in her mansion, Lin Qinghan doesn't understand, what is Lian Yueyao doing with her hand stretched out so long? Is she a married sister-in-law going to take care of her mother's affairs?

Lin Qinghan's refusal to admit his mistake annoyed Ting Zheng, who was furious and refused to return home at all.

Lin Qinghan could resist for a day or two, but if Tingzheng didn't come back for half a month, Lin Qinghan couldn't stand it, and when Mrs. Lin came to visit her, she couldn't cry.

Mrs. Lin could only persuade her daughter to apologize to Yueyao: "The Lian family raised Tingzheng, Tingzheng remembers her affection, respects and loves her as a mother, and you, as Tingzheng's wife, should respect the Lian family as much as Tingzheng."

Lin cried aggrievedly: "I want to too, but she hates me so much, I can't go with her!"

Mrs. Lin told Lin Qinghan about the seriousness of the matter: "If you don't apologize, there will be a rift between the husband and wife, and you will regret it at that time."

Regret, it's better to bow to Lian's now.

Lin Qinghan finally had a fear in his heart, and agreed to apologize to Yue Yao, and when Lin came to the door, Yue Yao was dealing with what An Zhichen sent back from the northwest.

Xiang Wei looked at the leather sent back and said with a smile: "A few days ago, he said that he didn't send some good skins to make clothes for your mother, and this gift gave more than a dozen boxes, which is really wealthy!"

Yueyao is not very keen on skin, what she likes is a few pieces of jade sent by An Zhichen, these jade are all good jade, An Zhichen got them from Xinjiang, and those pieces are still high-quality Hetian jade, An Zhichen knew that Yueyao likes to wear jade jewelry, so she simply searched for these jade stones and sent them back to Beijing, so that Yueyao could use them to make jewelry herself.

Xiang Weidu, who has always liked eggs and bones, couldn't help but admire: "If you don't make a move, it's enough, and if you make a move, it's a big deal."

A lot of oil and water.

Yueyao was funny and angry: "Are you full, have nothing to do?" If you're in a hurry, don't go to the shop in the future and help me with the housework.

Whoever gives a gift must first evaluate the value of the gift, and then deduce how much oil and water has been fished out based on it.

Xiang Weicai was reluctant to deal with those trivial things: "That can't be done, I have to make good money, prepare a rich dowry for Kexin in the future, and save a lot of money for the three little ones."

Yueyao was already complaining about her weakness: "It doesn't matter if you say it in front of me, you must not say this in front of An Zhichen in the future."

Anyway, I promise that I won't let Xiang Wei see a few more children.

Xiang Wei smiled like a fishy fox.

Yue Yao was pondering what to do with the jade, when she heard the maid outside say that Lin Qinghan was out asking to see her: "Madam, my uncle and wife are at the door with a big belly, saying that if we don't pass the word, we won't leave, and the porter is really helpless, so I just reported it."

When they went down, everyone from the Lin family refused, and everyone in the Anfu knew that Lin Qinghan scolded Yueyao, so the concierge implemented it very well, but today's situation was special, and the concierge couldn't bear it.

Yue Yao ordered people to receive everything to the storeroom, and then said, "Let her in!" Yue Yao already knew about Ting Zheng's failure to go home for half a month, and this time Lin Qinghan came to the door, probably because of this matter.

Lin Qinghan saw it crying and said, "Sister, what happened last time was my fault, please ask my sister to do a lot, don't worry about me."

Xiang Wei rolled her eyes, is this an apology? Why does it look like you don't forgive, you are cautious, not measured.

Yueyao didn't move, and said lightly: "Sit down!" Regardless of whether Lin Qinghan sat down or not, Yue Yao sat on the right side of the upper seat by herself.

What Lin Qinghan hated the most was Yueyao's light and breezy appearance, as if she was unattainable and needed to look up by herself, Lin Qinghan endured the boredom in her heart, and choked up: "Sister, I was too angry at the time, so I didn't hold back my mouth......

Yue Yao said: "It's been so long since I forgot about it.

When she stabilized, she should apologize, and now she will not accept it.

Lin Qinghan was so choked that she couldn't speak, which was why she didn't like to deal with Yueyao, and the two couldn't communicate at all.

Yue Yao said very directly: "I know that you don't like me, and you don't want to come to my house.

Xiang Wei glanced at Yueyao, usually Yueyao always spoke very tactfully, but today why did she speak so directly, I didn't see that the girl was so disgusted with Lin Qinghan.

Lin Qinghan's face turned pale, and he forced a smile: "Sister, I don't have ......."

Yue Yao also didn't want to come to find her if the husband and wife were unhappy in the future, she didn't want to be this peacemaker: "You don't need to say these nonsense, you and Ting Zheng have been married for almost two years, and there are some things that everyone understands, but they just haven't said it."

Mrs. Shi smiled and said, "Madam, my girl was too sad last time, so she offended her wife, and I ask Madame to forgive my girl for the sake of the unborn young master!"

Gu You brought a tray over, first brought a glass of water to Yue Yao, then a glass of fruit juice to Lin Qinghan, and then retreated to his side.

Yue Yao took a sip of water, put down the cup, looked at Lin Qinghan and said slowly: "You should have known that I didn't want to marry this family affair at the beginning, so you have always been very wary of me, and you don't even want to let Ting Zheng come to see me.

When Lin Qinghan heard this, his whole body stiffened, who has something to hide and pinch, even if he doesn't like it, he is kind and angry, Yueyao's behavior subverted Lin Qinghan's cognition.

Yue Yao didn't seem to see Lin Qinghan's gaffe: "I won't hide it from you, the first time I saw you, I felt that you and Tingzheng were not suitable."

When Lin Qinghan heard this, he couldn't help it anymore, raised his head and asked: "Why are you so arbitrary, you don't even know me, and you have only met once and you have concluded that I am not suitable for my husband."

Yue Yao was not angry: "When I saw you, I knew that you would not be a qualified housewife, and this is enough."

Lin Qinghan was not convinced.

A sneer crossed Yue Yao's face: "The housewife wants to take care of the inside and out properly, but what about you?" Don't you think it's ridiculous that you treat me as nothing, just about you and Mu Qinglian, and that you, a lady in the main room, have a very close relationship with a concubine?"

Lin Qinghan wanted to refute it, but found that he could not.

Yue Yao continued: "Let's talk about the maid climbing the bed, you have been married for more than a year, and you can't even control the backyard well, so you can let the maid climb the bed while Tingzheng is drunk? What about the mother-in-law who kept vigil? What about the little guy who waits closely? Are these people all dead, and they can't see the maid enter the master's house? After the incident, I didn't want to reflect on myself, I didn't think about how to deal with the aftermath, and I would be so stupid as to think that I had arranged for the maid, and that I had brought it up single-handedly, and if I really wanted to give her a maid, why should I use such a means to give it to him, and he would not dare not accept it.

Lin Qinghan's face instantly turned as white as paper, and after marrying Ting Zheng, she found that the most important thing in Ting Zheng's mind was not her, but Lian Yueyao, and she was very unwilling to do so, so she often quarreled with Ting Zheng because of Lian Yueyao's affairs, but the quarrel was not only useless, but made Ting Zheng more and more good to Lian Yueyao, so good that she was jealous, and Ting Zheng had always been obedient to Yueyao, if Yueyao really sent a maid over, Ting Zheng would definitely accept the house.

Mrs. Shi pinched Lin Qinghan's arm, Lin Qinghan came back to her senses and said with tears in her eyes: "Sister, all the mistakes are my fault, I was lard at that time, I was stunned, sister, I really didn't mean to do it at that time, I ......."

Yue Yao interrupted Lin Qinghan's words: "Tingzheng has grown up and become a talent, and I also want to find a virtuous helper for him, so that he can support the door of the second room, but Tingzheng likes you and insists on marrying you.

Lin Qinghan's whole body was wooden.

Shi Pozi stubbornly spoke: "Our girl also knows that the eldest aunt and grandmother have worked hard for their uncle. ”

Yue Yao couldn't help laughing: "Lin, it's been two years since you married into the Lian family, and now you're six months pregnant, and the maid and woman next to you still call you a girl and Ting Zheng an aunt in front of me, Lin, you don't think of yourself as the daughter-in-law of the Lian family at all." "One title can reflect a lot of problems.

Lin Qinghan reflexively exclaimed, "I didn't. ”

Shi Pozi immediately knelt on the ground.

Yue Yao was too lazy to bother to bother with her words: "Lin, even if I don't like you, but after you married into the Lian family, I have never felt sorry for you, let alone said a word about you, you have regarded me as nothing in the past two years, and I have never said a word about you in front of Tingzheng, even if you were angry with me because of a maid last time, I didn't do anything, Lin, I asked myself that I have done my best to be benevolent." ”

Lin Qinghan instinctively felt that Yue Yao's next words were not good, and sure enough, Yue Yao's next words were not good: "I used to tell Ting Zheng that I would live my own life, and now I also say this to you, no matter how good or bad you and Ting Zheng will live in the future, I have not taken care of it before, and I will not care about it in the future.

Lin Qinghan didn't know how he left Anfu.

Not to mention what Lin Qinghan thought, Xiang Wei waited for Lin Qinghan to leave, and then asked with a smile: "So brave?" Aren't you afraid that Lin Qinghan will have another tire gas?"

Yue Yao said expressionlessly: "Last time, because the fetus was unstable, I also endured that bad breath, and this time I have no reason to put up with her anymore." She is not blind, how can she not see that Lin Qinghan is not sincere and sincere to apologize at all, since neither of them likes each other, why bother to be vain and wronged, tired and panicked.

Xiang Wei wanted to continue to discuss this issue with Yueyao, but Yueyao didn't have time to talk to her about these messes, so Yueyao took Kexin to the warehouse, pointed to the dozen or so pieces of jade sent by An Zhichen, and said, "Kexin, you can choose a few pieces you like." ”

Kexin felt that these stones of various colors were very bright: "Mother, what are these?"

Yue Yao popularized the knowledge of jade to Ke Xin, from the classification of jade, to the connotation of jade, from the development of jade to how to identify jade, this talk could not stop.

Xiang Wei couldn't help but shake her head.

Hao's mother smiled and said, "Madame's heart is relaxed," in fact, I want Hao's mother

People with a wide heart live comfortably.

Mom said that her own master was too generous, so that the Lin family didn't know how thick the sky was, and if she was replaced by a more powerful aunt and grandmother, the Lin family would only cry a lot.

Xiang Wei pouted: "Where is her heart, she doesn't care at all, if it is rumored that the paintings she made are ghostwritten by others, and she deceives the world and steals her name, do you think she can still be so calm?"

Hao's mother said with a straight face: "You can't talk nonsense. "Madame is fond of painting, and if she is slandered like this, I am afraid that her lungs will explode.
