"Why did my sister-in-law find time to come to me today?" Welcomed people into the upper room, and each went down to the big coat outside under the service of his own girl, and the third lady was busy welcoming Mrs. Lan to the seat, and Huan'er and a few little girls had already prepared a cup of refreshments on the kang table in great color. Mrs. www.biquge.info Pavilion, the third lady of the pen "Fun" Pavilion asked with a chuckle while pouring a cup of tea for Mrs. Lan Da herself.

Lan Xi sat obediently on the side, as if she lowered her head and fiddled with the needlework in her hand, but in fact quietly looked at Mrs. Landa's expression.

Mrs. Lan wore a royal blue peony makeup gray squirrel skin jacket today, and tied a gray squirrel skin skirt with old green silk and soft satin, although she was smiling, but her expression could not hide her haggardness, even the smile was not very real.

When Lan Xi saw it, his heart moved slightly, and he quietly glanced at the third wife.

Over there, Mrs. Lan was not in a hurry to speak, picked up the teacup and took a sip of the fragrant tea in the cup, before she smiled, "The color of this tea soup is clear and clear, the smell is rich and fragrant, and the entrance is even more fragrant. ”

That's right. The third wife naturally saw her daughter's expression, and when she heard this, she skipped it in her heart first, and then smiled, "Where does my sister-in-law speak, where will I taste tea, this is just taking advantage of the geographical advantage, and it is close to the south." This tea is not a treasure, it is sold in the tea shops in Hangzhou, and it didn't cost a few silvers, my sister-in-law is just kind enough to praise me twice, if I really take it seriously, then it is a smile and generosity. But if this tea sister-in-law is eye-catching, I have some there, and I'll let Huan'er wrap a few dollars to send to my sister-in-law later. But the tea in my sister-in-law is only much more expensive than mine, so you should be a good person to the end, give my ignorant brother and sister a little face, and reluctantly accept it. With that, he covered his mouth with a handkerchief and chuckled twice.

Mrs. Lan lowered her eyebrows, the smile marks on the corners of her mouth did not change, but there were two traces of darkness in her eyes, "The third brother and sister are becoming more and more clever with this mouth. "It's so leaky, but it's also a loss and I refuse to eat it. Mrs. Landa's mind was racing, and in a moment, she had already put the teacup in her hand back on the kang table, put away the smile on her face, turned her eyebrows lightly, looked at the third lady with a sincere face, and said, "Third brother and sister, you are a cool person, and I will no longer go around the corner." I really have nothing to do today! ”

"Sister-in-law has something to do, just tell me." Although the third wife said so, she was quietly more vigilant in her heart.

"I naturally don't dare to say that I want to command, but I really want to ask my third brother and sister for help. Third brother and sister, you have been back for a few days, and you have also seen that everything in this house is complicated, although there are still two brothers and sisters and four brothers and sisters, but some things are handed over to them, but the old lady is unwilling, these years, no matter how tired I am, I am in charge of it alone. Fortunately, now that the third brother and sister have finally returned, I still have to ask you to share some things for me. Look at it, it looks like it's coming to the end of the year, there are already a lot of things, and this year I have to organize the old lady's birthday banquet, this thing is one by one, one by one, how can I be busy. Please also ask the third brother and sister, you must not shirk, Wan Wang will be tired, take a hand......" Mrs. Lan said so earnestly, a pair of eyes, staring straight at the third wife, as if waiting for her response, more like observing her reaction.

Is this to divide her stewardship? Although Fang had just guessed, the third wife was still shocked. But she quickly calmed down, and after thinking for a while, she didn't rush to agree, but asked, "Sister-in-law, is this the meaning of the old lady or the meaning of the sister-in-law?" ”

Mrs. Lan was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Although this is what I meant, it is ...... The old lady is only afraid and willing......"

"In that case, then sister-in-law forgive me for not agreeing." The third lady didn't wait for Mrs. Lan to finish speaking, so she bluntly refused, "My sister-in-law also knows that I can't go around the corner, and I often offend people because of this, but I have always been close to my sister-in-law, and now I am not afraid of my sister-in-law being angry, I also have a sentence to say." No matter what the old lady thinks in her heart, on the bright side, our third room is the same as the second room and the fourth room, we are all descendants of the Lan family, there is no reason to say that the second room and the fourth room are not involved in the family affairs, but we are only afraid that we will cause chaos. This is one of them, and the second is that although everything is complicated at home, but the sister-in-law has been in charge for so many years, and now there is a big grandmother to help, so she can naturally be at ease, if she is really too busy, the old lady's birthday banquet, whether it is me, or the second sister-in-law or the fourth brother and sister, do not mind doing their filial piety. Third, sister-in-law, please forgive me for wanting to be lazy once, these years outside, I am really tired of these trivial things, and now it is easy to have a sister-in-law, who is capable, if I don't know how to be lazy, wouldn't I be that stupid? Besides, the sister-in-law also knows that I have to handle Brother Hao'er's marriage here, and Brother Xun and Sister Xi are not young, and they should look at each other slowly, even if I want to help my sister-in-law, I am also powerless, so my sister-in-law should feel sorry for me, and I have never mentioned this matter, just when the sister-in-law is tired, this love, my brother and sister and your nephews and nieces are all in mind. ”

The third lady's words were said in an orderly manner, but Mrs. Lan seemed to be stunned, and stared at the third lady with complicated eyes for a long time before asking, "The third brother and sister are sincere?" ”

The third lady nodded dryly, "Naturally, it's true." ”

Mrs. Lan looked at her deeply for a while, and her expression relaxed slightly, but she lowered her eyes, and did not look at the third lady again, but said in an inexplicable tone, "The third brother and sister today are not the same as a few years ago. ”

Of course, the third wife would rather take this sentence as a compliment, and always smile unchanged.

After sending Mrs. Lan away, the smile on the third lady's face disappeared, and she sat back on the kang and sighed long, "This person's heart is separated from his belly, and he changes when he says it, and he really has his own calculations." ”

"Mother doesn't need to be annoyed, didn't my mother also say that it is human nature that the eldest aunt has a knot in her heart. But mother, aunt is a temptation this time, but you refuse very sincerely, will you regret it? Lan Xi asked curiously on the side.

"It is impossible for people to take all the benefits, otherwise it will be really angry and resentful. Since your father is going well, why don't I take a step back in the inner house, after all, it is a family, if they are all stiff, wouldn't it be a trouble, there is a good saying, the family and everything is prosperous. You can't let your father be busy dealing with court affairs, and you have to worry about these parents, this right to feed, if your aunt wants to dominate with all her heart, then she will dominate, but I am not rare. After all, no one can be harsh at will, our mother and son are. ”

Lan Xi listened, and quietly gave a thumbs up to the third wife, "Mother's great wisdom!" (To be continued.) )
