Ciyuan is making a lot of trouble, but Meishan Xiaozhu doesn't know it at all. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Linglong according to her grandmother's instructions, one by one to convey the words that should be said.
Mrs. Tong listened to Linglong's words, and said to the two daughters-in-law with a smile: "It's just right, it's not convenient for you to carry your body, just raise it steadily, save the toss back and forth," said to the little daughter-in-law, and instructed the eldest daughter-in-law, "You can rest assured to go to Yuqian Hutong to clean up, I estimate, the servants will arrive this afternoon, you don't go at all in the morning, wait for a nap and then go over, save you from going to they didn't arrive, you are tired alone." ”
The two daughters-in-law smiled and said yes.
As they spoke, Yan Ying and Zhe Ying came in arm-in-arm and smiled, "Grandmother, I saw that bean paste buns were made in the kitchen." Zhe Ying shouted as soon as she entered the house.
"That's not made in the kitchen, it's made by Aunt Yan herself early in the morning, your sister Lingrong brought it over for us to eat, and I don't thank you Sister Lingrong." It was not strange to shout at Zhe Ying that the old lady was not surprised, but just said dotingly.
Zhe Ying and Yan Ying hurriedly thanked Lingrong.
Lingrong forcibly suppressed the tension in her heart, straightened her back, and said with a smile: "Aunt said, I don't know if you are used to eating, if you eat well, you can make some more tomorrow." He spoke softly, trying to speak generously, but he didn't pay attention, and the handkerchief in his hand was about to be twisted into a rope, and his palms were full of sweat.
Jiang and Qiao saw it in their eyes, and they didn't break it, they just looked at her with a smile, their eyes full of sincerity and kindness.
"Okay, I'll taste it later, I just took a look, it looks like that, the skin is snow-white and crystalline, and the pleats are tight and soft, it should be delicious." Zhe Ying looked serious, with a pair of big eyes sparkling.
"What to taste and taste, early morning nonsense." Jiang reprimanded, but his tone was gentle.
Linglong likes her from the bottom of her heart, she has the gold of a young lady, but also innocent and lively, so free to be herself. I envy her courage in my heart, but I also understand that only in a truly harmonious family can I be so free and easy, without the slightest disguise and unrestrained in front of my relatives.
"Mother! I didn't talk nonsense, even my grandmother said, well, our Zhe Ying's mouth is specially used to eat. Zhe Ying imitated Old Taijun Tong's tone and said coquettishly.
"You!" Yan Ying was older, and pulled Zhe Ying back to him, "Let's sit honestly." ”
As he was talking, Liuli opened the curtain and came in, and asked Mrs. Tong to set up the meal.
"Don't bother, just bring it here, there is also a low table on the couch, their sisters, you can add a table for them." As he spoke, he turned his face and asked Lingrong and Linglong, "Did you have breakfast early in the morning?" ”
Lingrong and Linglong hurriedly said that they had eaten.
Liuli followed the instructions of Mrs. Tong and set the meal.
Qiao's belly was big and it was not easy to move, so Jiang gave Mrs. Tong a meal. Breakfast is a bean paste bun with white porridge, plus four side dishes. Liuli specially instructed the kitchen to make egg custard, sour bamboo shoot noodles, and chicken skin sour bamboo shoot lotus leaf soup for Qiao's family.
Qiao's ate a bean paste bun, instead of eating white porridge, he ate a bowl of sour bamboo shoot noodles and drank two bowls of soup.
Yuan and her mother-in-law were worried that Qiao's unaccustomed food or unaccustomed to eating in the capital would affect the fetus in her womb, but now it seems that Qiao's can eat and drink, and she is relieved.
"Hey! This bean paste bun is so delicious, Sister Liuli, is there any kitchen left? Zhe Ying ate three in a row, called it delicious, swallowed the last bite in her mouth, and asked Liuli.
Yan Ying pursed her lips and looked at her sister and smiled, "I can't finish eating here, you can take it and eat it." There was still a moving one in front of Yan Ying.
Liuli hurriedly said, "There is still a kitchen, and the slave maid will bring it to the second lady." ”
Said that she was going to serve, where would the kitchen really use glass to do things, who didn't know that she was a big girl who was the first class of the old lady and could be half of the old lady's master, after listening to Zhe Ying's words, a little girl had already rushed to the kitchen, and brought five buns over, Liuli took it and put it in front of Zhe Ying with a smile.
"You are careful of gluttony and uncomfortable." Jiang Shi saw that Liuli brought five more and reminded Zhe Ying, "I don't remember the accident of eating durian crisp last time!" The tone was a bit heavy.
Zhe Ying stuck out her tongue and laughed twice, but in the end she only ate one.
Listening to the eldest aunt mention the accident of durian crisp, Yan Ying smiled and said to Linglong and Lingrong: "You don't know, once I brought her durian crisp from outside, she ate it and said it was delicious, pestering me to buy it for her again, but I couldn't screw her, so I had to let the girl buy it again, she told the girl to buy more, my girl was also a solid one, and bought her four boxes at once, this little ancestor, greedy for deliciousness, ate it all in one go, took the stomach ache for a night, and the tossed aunt went to see the doctor overnight, and ate the decoction for three days, It took three days to have an empty stomach. ”
Hearing that her sister picked up her old bottom, Zhe Ying bluffed her face and said, "Sister! You can't have these two sisters and forget about my own sister and tell everyone everything! Where is my face going! ”
Everyone laughed when they said this.
"You still know where to put your face!" Mrs. Tong pointed at her with a smile and said, "Think about it yourself, how many medicines you have taken because of greed." Don't think I don't know, I see who will cover you when your sister gets married. ”
"Isn't there Sister Lingrong and Sister Linglong!" Zhe Ying said unceremoniously, and felt that something was wrong, and looked at everyone with a wink.
There was another burst of laughter.
Linglong is deeply in love with this family, always so happy. Lingrong is not envious from the bottom of her heart. It would be much better if the relationship between himself and Linglong could be as good as their sisters. glanced at Linglong, saw her eyebrows and eyes, her face was pure and bright, and she secretly vowed to get along with Linglong sincerely in the future.
The breakfast was finished in such a lively manner. After eating, Mrs. Tong pulled Lingrong and Linglong to talk for a while, then sent the four of them out to play, and instructed Zhe Ying and Linglong to copy the two scriptures on rice paper before playing.
The four of them nodded in agreement, and the fish rushed out.
After Liuli took the girls to clean up the meal, and then took the tea again and retreated, Qiao told Shen Xinyi about Mrs. Tong and Jiang.
"This child is a pitiful one, mother and sister-in-law, what should we do." Qiao pulled a pillow and snuggled on, looked at Jiang and his mother-in-law, and gently put his hand on his lower abdomen, rubbing the child in his womb.
Mrs. Tong sighed, "In the past, we were far apart, even if we had the heart, we were powerless, and we couldn't take care of the child, since childhood, their brother and sister have been stumbling, and now they live closely, so it is reasonable to take care of the child, not to mention that Yun Qi also specially entrusted Erlang." ”
Hearing what her mother-in-law said, Qiao Shi was a little puzzled, and looked at Jiang Shi in confusion.
Jiang Shi took a sip of tea, gently put down the teacup, and said, "You married in late, and you don't know the old things about our family and the Shen family." After all these years, I haven't mentioned it, and I haven't had a chance to tell you," Jiang Shi mentioned this matter, his eyes were slightly red, his heart was sour, and he wrinkled his nose and held back tears without falling, "Xinyi's biological mother's surname is Zhao, and her maiden name is Moqiu, when she was in Hangzhou, the Zhao family originally lived next door to our house, and the year I married your eldest brother, Miss Zhao had just been engaged to the Shen family, and she only waited until the day to get married." The Zhao family and our family are very close, and she is the same age as me, and we have gradually become close friends. Although he was holding back his tears, as the past was brought up, Jiang's voice gradually took on a thick nasal tone, and Qiao was busy adding tea to his sister-in-law for her to take a sip.
Jiang Shi took a sip of hot tea, stabilized his mind and continued: "It is said that Hongluo Temple is the most spiritual, I made an appointment with Mo Qiu to go to worship together, who knew that among the pilgrims borrowed from Hongluo Temple, there was a madman who lived, seeing that Mo Qiu and I were both women, and they were dressed a lot, so they had a bad heart," Speaking of this, Jiang's face changed, and the scene of that year still made her feel palpitations, picked up the teacup and was in a trance for a moment, then put it down, and continued: "He took advantage of the absence of his mother-in-law and girl, so he rushed over, and his words were extremely light and filthy, At that time, I was about to do something, I was frightened, and I was about to call someone, but Mo Qiu stopped me, and she told me that if I shouted out, our reputations would be ruined. She said that she first perfunctory him, let me take the opportunity to escape, and then quietly called my close mother to come and subdue him. I was so frightened that I could understand the intentions of Mo Qiu's words, I didn't think about it, I found a gap, and escaped with a roll, and when I rushed back with my close mother, Mo Qiu was already disheveled. Speaking of this, Jiang Shi couldn't hold back anymore, and tears flowed.
Qiao Shi looked at Jiang Shi and didn't know how to comfort her, just reached out and took her hand and put it in his hand.
"The madman didn't expect us to come so suddenly, and the mothers struggled a lot, and finally he was tied up. I was so frightened that I cried, rushed over and hugged Mo Qiu, helped her straighten her clothes and comb her hair, and she was dumbfounded, leaving me motionless. Later, I carried Moqiu out of Hongluo Temple and went straight to Zhao's house. The madman had already planned, he calculated, people like us, the innocence of girls was ruined, and they would never publicize it, so he thought about taking advantage of this to blackmail the Zhao family's master, asking the Zhao family to marry Mo Qiuxu to him, and his daughter's innocence was ruined. ”
Qiao Shi listened, gasping and his fingertips trembling slightly.
"I went home and told my mother-in-law about it, and my mother-in-law told me not to make a public announcement, and she would deal with the rest with her husband and second brother. I was also so frightened that I lost six of my seven souls, and I lay at home in a daze for a few days. Jiang glanced at his mother-in-law gratefully, such a thing happened in someone else's house, and he would definitely be pressed an unchaste hat, even if not, the mother-in-law would not be afraid to see her from now on, and maybe she would let her son stop his wife and remarry, but her own mother-in-law not only did not reprimand, but comforted her carefully, and every sentence was a heartfelt and considerate word, as for Xianggong, she never said that she was half a word.
"When I came to my relief, it was the day of the funeral of the old man of the Zhao family. Seeing Mo Qiu again, she was already thin and only a handful of bones remained, my heart was broken, if it weren't for me, how could something like this happen to the Zhao family. Later, the minister told me that they had settled the maniac privately, and that only a few of us knew about it. But the marriage between Moqiu and the Shen family was delayed for another three years because of the death of the Zhao family's master, and the wife of the Shen family was unwilling to do so, and she had to ask her son to withdraw from her family, but he really liked Moqiu and was willing to wait. The next day, as soon as Mrs. Shen left Hangzhou, the Zhao family moved away, and they left suddenly, we didn't know where they went. Jiang took a long breath, and Qiao patted the back of his sister-in-law's hand, "It wasn't until the second brother did business in the capital and saw Mo Qiu in the capital again that I got in touch with her." Speaking of this, Jiang's tone was slightly relaxed, "Mrs. Shen can't screw her son in the end, and she married Mo Qiu back three years later, but unfortunately Mo Qiu was tortured by that madman once, and her father was bitter because of his death, and her body has not been very happy, and she died within two years of giving birth to Xinyi." ”
