CHAPTER XVIII

This Dong family can't bear her, and finally a lovely little girl came to the house, and she hasn't hugged enough! Looking at her with Dong Dong's eyes in her eyes, she looked at Rulin with a blank eye. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

"Eldest sister, just leave Dongdong to play for a few days, her uncle and I will definitely take care of her, and when the time comes, we will send you back with all the mustaches and tails. Besides, my lord and I still want to have another daughter, but we don't come, maybe our little niece will play with me for a few days, and then we will invite our little sister. ”

Xue Yun was also on the side to help, and Rulin had no choice but to agree. Tell Dong Dong not to be naughty at his uncle's house, to listen to his aunt, and pick her up two days later. Later, he was bargained for by Dongdong, and promised to stay for three days, and if he was not satisfied, he would not stay for a day, and he would go home with her immediately.

Dong Dong immediately covered his little mouth, not daring to disobey his mother.

Xue Yun called Rulin to the side, wanting to say a few words alone.

"Sister, you and Ning ...... Is my brother-in-law still like that? I see that you don't seem to be the same as before now, Brother Xu also has a wife and children, and after all these years, you can let it go. My brother-in-law liked you when he lived in our house, and if you treat him wholeheartedly in the future, life will definitely get better and better. ”

"What nonsense? is the father of two children, and he still likes what he likes, and he is not ashamed. Rulin said this, but there was a drum in her heart, her younger brother said that Ning Mu liked him when he was a child, she really didn't see it, if he laughed at her and teased her, then his liking was too special. Even that time he beat Xu Jingsheng on the edge of the rockery, she always thought that he was just for the dignity of her fiancΓ©.

"Or my mother said you were stupid, I was still a little kid at that time, I could see it. I won't talk to you in detail about it, you're still in a hurry to go home, go back and think about it slowly. "Poor Brother Ning, even if his stupid sister doesn't like Xu Jingsheng, she may not like him, it's really a long way to go, may God bless him.

Xue Yun shook his head and let out a long sigh.

Only Rulin and Ning Shao were left in the carriage that went back, and the maids were in the car behind. Because that's how I sat when I came, I didn't readjust the carriage even when I was gone.

After Xue Rulin got in the car, she was pondering Xue Yun's words, did Ning Mu really like her? He hadn't said anything to her, and she had never wanted to listen. When she heard others say how he used to like her, she was only surprised and puzzled.

Ning Shao saw that his mother had been contemplating since she got into the carriage, looking extremely confused.

But he didn't want to care about what she was thinking, and it seemed to him that most of the women's troubles were found by themselves.

The carriage was bumped, and Rulin almost fell crooked, before she retracted her thoughts.

Seeing that his son was still reading, he said, "Shao'er, I'll be home in a while, don't read when I get home, and rest for a good night." ”

Ning Mu didn't say yes or no, but said something else, "Mother, can you let me pick up my sister home when the time comes?" ”

Rulin didn't expect her cold son to make this request, "How do you feel about going to your uncle's house today?" Mother is afraid that you will not be used to it. ”

"It's good, my aunt and uncle are very interesting people."

"My uncle took me to the study left by my grandfather, and my uncle said that my grandfather only took my father and Master Xu in the past." Ning Shao kept looking at his mother's expression.

Rulin's heart moved, and her face was still well controlled, Ning Shao was an extremely smart child, if he noticed something......

"If you like your grandfather's study, you will often walk around your uncle in the future, although your uncle is not very good at reading, but he is also a man of great wisdom, compared with him, we are all laymen."

"That's what Mother said."

I didn't say anything all the way, and I returned home safely.

Dong Dong was not around, which gave Rulin the illusion that everything was back to square one all of a sudden. She sat alone under the porch to enjoy the shade, the evening breeze was blowing, and there were only insects and frogs chirping around her, which was too quiet, and couldn't help but make people fall into a trance. Is she still her old self?

Wrong! After thinking about it for a while, Rulin felt that there was no gap in her heart! Without anyone's reminder, her heart clearly told her that what happened during this time was not a dream, she had worked hard, she had integrated! Even if there is no Dongdong, no Shao'er, and no one around her at this moment, she has transformed into another self, and she doesn't need to be corroborated by others.

Bizhu took a copy of the invitation and came over, "Madam, the old lady of the Hou Mansion of Anning is too long, this is what the old lady asked Sister Ximei to send to you." After speaking, he handed the post to Rulin.

The old lady of Anninghou Mansion is the aunt of Rulin's mother, surnamed Wang, Rulin wants to call her aunt, Xue Yun's family affairs are still the red line she pulled. When her mother was alive, she had a lot of contacts with the Xue family, and her children and nephews liked her mother very much.

This time it was her old man's 60th birthday, which was a big day for the old man. In the past, the posts sent to the relatives of the Ning Mansion were sent to the old lady first, and most of them were also attended by the old lady, Rulin only attended a very small number of grand occasions where her identity could not be absent.

This time, the old lady of An Ninghou was not only her relative, but also the first major event of inter-aristocratic interaction she had encountered since she took over the family affairs, and she must attend, and she must not be careless. What she has to face is the exploitation and scrutiny of layers of eyes. She can't be a vase-like dead thing anymore, her every move has to be magnified several times, and it is fake to say that there is no pressure, because she cares, so she is nervous.

However, Xue Rulin is Xue Jin's daughter in the end, and there is an old saying that 'if you are familiar with 300 ancient poems, you can sing if you can't compose poems'. She still has some of the scholarly background cultivated since childhood. Rulin cheered herself up, she wanted to turn over in their eyes.

Rulin knows very well what kind of virtue that group of noble ladies is, and took advantage of Dongdong not to make trouble at home, Rulin and Bizhu reviewed the relationship between these important people in Beijing and the big events, whose lord is what official position, who is in-law with whom, who has who has any grievances, do not ask for any good relationship when the time comes, but it is enough to ask for no grievances.

The birthday banquet is a rare sunny and good weather, Anning Hou Mansion is crowded, An Ning Hou Shizi and his wife personally greet the guests at the door, and after the guests go in, the Anning Hou couple will be divided into male and female guests to entertain and greet respectively.

Xue Rulin chose to arrive early, and Mrs. An Ninghou personally took her to the old lady and said to her affectionately, "Lin'er is really a rare guest, and the old lady often talks about you!" Now you have to ask the old lady to be rare. ”

"What my aunt said is that in the past, Lin'er was too rigid and didn't like to go out and walk around, so she failed her aunt and grandmother."

"You, it's good to know, you have to come often in the future, let's go, the old lady may be so happy to see you!" As she spoke, she stopped making fun of Rulin, and quickly walked into the old lady's room.
