Chapter 45 The future mother-in-law's abacus is fine
Lan Jiayin's heart was anxious, and she couldn't wait to ask the person now, "My tourmaline bracelet is lost, have you seen it?" β
How can it be that it is difficult for the two of them to meet each other in their respective homes, let alone ask questions in private?
No matter how you think about it, it's unrealistic.
She felt uncomfortable, so she tossed and turned on the bed, but no matter how she lay down, she felt uncomfortable.
This kind of movement attracted the pink butterfly who was on duty at night after a while, she was the second-class maid next to Mrs. Lan, and she was the one who trained Lan Jiayin, but now she was just called her earlier.
Pink Butterfly was wearing a butterfly love flower jacket, a black hair was loosely braided, and she was casually diagonally on her chest, she hung up half of the bed curtain, and joked with a smile: "At noon, the maid was afraid that you would sleep too much, and you lost sleep at night, look, you really can't sleep, right?" β
"Oh, it's a cold day, how can you expose your arms and legs, how can you get cold?" When she saw the messy bed under Lan Jiayin, Pink Butterfly couldn't help but exclaim.
Lan Jiayin's heart moved when she heard this, and she looked at Pink Butterfly's pretty face and thought to herself, "Cold, this is a good method, I can't see guests when I'm sick, I don't want to face that hateful snobbish mother-in-law and her hypocritical villain son!" β
On the second day, Mrs. An Xinhou's mother and son happily came to Zuo Xiangfu's house to pay New Year's greetings, but they returned disappointed.
Speaking of which, the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion was also enthusiastic up and down, but it was a pity that the main owner accidentally caught a cold last night, and he was afraid that he would be too sick, so he couldn't even see him.
Looking at her son, whose face was as heavy as water, Mrs. An Xinhou covered her lips and chuckled, "No matter how much I persuaded you in the past, you couldn't talk about Sister Yin'er, and I always thought she was not in shape." β
"Why, you've been paying attention to her a lot lately?"
On the carriage moving steadily, someone couldn't help but joke about his son.
"Speaking of which, if you hadn't told my mother, I would have really misunderstood that child, and I don't know who it is, such a bad heart, slandering a little girl like this?"
Li Weizhen half leaned on the pillow embroidered with peony flowers, his mind seemed to be all on the book in his hand, and he just nodded casually to his mother's question.
Mrs. An Xinhou was greatly dissatisfied when she saw this, her eyes rolled, and she raised her voice and said, "I said Berry, what you said should be wrong, right?" As the saying goes, flies don't bite seamless eggs"
"Mother, Miss Five's temperament is lively, but she is not a rude and domineering person, my son has specially inquired about it, don't think about it, will you?" Listening to what his mother said, the more he didn't look like it, Li Weizhen finally took his eyes off the book in his hand and affirmed helplessly.
I thought I could see my fiancΓ©e today, and I specially prepared a gift for this meeting, but who knew that person was sick.
"What would a girl who is so vibrant look like when she is sick?" Li Weizhen looked like he was reading a book, but his mind had already run away.
Thinking that his future father-in-law is still close to him, and his future mother-in-law is also very satisfied with him, he feels a little comforted.
Although I didn't see Lan Jiayin today, before leaving, my mother personally invited me to invite the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion to the seventh day of the first month, and also invited the old lady, the second lady, and the third lady to bring all the young ladies together.
It was only three days to see him, and it wasn't too long, and the corners of Li Weizhen's lips finally bloomed with a smile.
"Hey, Berry, what are you smiling at? Do you think what my mother said is right? Mrs. An Xinhou saw that her son was distracted again, and she obviously didn't hear a word of what she said, so she couldn't help but pout, and raised her voice again.
Li Weizhen was stunned, put the book on the desk, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, my son was distracted just now, I really didn't hear what my mother said, you just said"
"I mean, Miss Lan Si is really beautiful, a few points better than Sister Yin, and among the sisters in their family, she is the most outstanding."
"My mother has been watching coldly, this fourth lady is well-known and courteous, and she is also well-founded in dealing with people, at first glance, everyone is from a background, compared with her, Sister Yin is too bad." Mrs. An Xinhou said it again.
She had a small relationship with Mrs. Lan, but when they got older, they both found a good son-in-law, and she felt that her friend's daughter should also be as sensible and gentle as her friend.
Although his own marquis has a good reputation, he has no real power, and Lan Zuoxiang is a favorite minister of the saint, and he will have to take care of his son-in-law in the future, so he took the initiative to get engaged.
Who knows, the girl who was originally pink and jade like a fairychild, the bigger she is, the more naughty she is, and she really doesn't care about it, the most outrageous one is to climb onto her own glass-roofed greenhouse, not only broke two pieces of dead expensive colorful glass, but also broke her leg.
At that time, the mother-in-law was so frightened that she fainted, and the Hou Ye was very dissatisfied with this daughter-in-law, and said that his son must not marry a cripple.
Fortunately, Lan Jiayin had a good life, but she was not disabled, and she had capable parents and powerful grandfathers, so her mother-in-law and Hou Ye endured it and did not withdraw from the marriage.
Today, Mrs. An Xinhou saw that Lan Jiayu was beautiful and dignified, and she was inevitably envious, secretly hating why Lan Jiayu didn't come out of Mrs. Lan's belly?
If you can have such an outstanding daughter-in-law, you will have face when you take it out, and you don't know how much better it is than the troublemaker, at least in front of the powerful daughter-in-law, you won't be left behind, right?
When Li Weizhen heard this, he didn't love it in his heart, but he could only coax patiently in the face of his mother, "Fifth Miss was a little skinny when she was a child, and now she is much better, the last time I saw her in Chongbei Hou Mansion, I am more sensible, and when I enter the door in the future, my mother will teach her carefully." β
When Mrs. Anxin Hou heard the Chongbei Hou Mansion, her smile couldn't help overflowing, she approached her son's side, and asked in a low voice, "Mrs. Chongbei Hou's private treasury, or is it only your mother-in-law who can enter?" β
Li Weizhen's eyes flashed slightly, and he nodded lightly.
"That's good, that's good, son, with such a good daughter-in-law with a rich marriage, what do you want to do? We don't have to look at your sister-in-law's face anymore! Speaking of the eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. An Xinhou did not hide her hatred, and the anger in her eyes made the maids around her tremble, and she quickly lowered her head and pretended to be quails.
The Anxin Marquis Mansion is on par with the Chongbei Marquis Mansion, but their family abandoned Wu Congwen early, abandoned the fundamentals, and stood late when the saint won the heir, because they had been cold by that person for nearly ten years.
The Hou Mansion of Nuoda has huge expenses, and the husband and wife of An Xinhou are not business materials, and they were deceived with compensation and lost a lot of family wealth.
Fortunately, the prince of Anxin Hou is a capable person, not only picked up the sword and gun again, but also went to the army to experience the experience, a year ago he was promoted to the commander of the guards of the fourth grade, and he didn't know where he went, but he actually entered the Lu Palace, and now he is in charge of all the guards in the palace.
King Lu appreciates the prince of Anxin very much, and even the wife of the prince is a big matchmaker made by Princess Lu, and she is the granddaughter of Fang Song, the governor of Annan.
When this man married into the mansion of the Marquis of Anxin, the dowry was terrifying, and I heard that the porcelain used on the stove in the house alone was enough to load a boat.
Just think about it, the eldest daughter-in-law's dowry is rich, her mother's family is powerful, and in the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law war, Mrs. An Xinhou will inevitably be deflated, and now she is not looking forward to the second daughter-in-law who can wish her a helping hand?
Li Weizhen is very unaccustomed to his mother's style of eating others, wearing others, using others, and looking forward to other people's death.
In fact, in his opinion, the eldest sister-in-law is a capable person, although she is strong, but it is better than not being able to support her, she is always the eldest daughter-in-law of the Li family, the future Mrs. An Xinhou, how can she convince the public if she is not powerful?
Is it like a mother, who was fooled and deceived by her subordinates, and even the objects in the bedroom were turned upside down and discarded, so that she was applauded?
couldn't help but persuade meaningfully, "Mother, sister-in-law, housekeeper, there is no merit and hard work, and besides, she also added the eldest grandson to you and your father, for the sake of the son, you should also give her this dignity." β
Listening to her son talk about the smart and beautiful eldest grandson, Mrs. An Xinhou became happy again, and inevitably talked about it again, Li Weizhen listened quietly, occasionally in line with two sentences, and in the face of the verbose mother, there was no impatience in her expression.
The two big maids who were waiting in the carriage looked at their second son gentle and elegant, calm and calm, and they really admired it from the bottom of their hearts.
From time to time, the peeking eyes are full of admiration, and I can't help but envy the Yin Xiang and Xueqin who serve the second son closely.
I couldn't help but secretly reverie, "If I can also serve the second son, how nice it would be!" β
