Chapter 51: Sister-in-law = Sister-in-law
The Anxin Hou Mansion is also the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the mansion is also given by the emperor, and the Chongbei Hou Mansion is separated by two streets, but the layout is one-third smaller.
And because the old An Xinhou is no longer alive, the old Hou wife is in charge, and the patriarch is invited to testify, and the four or five concubines under him are divided.
Fortunately, there are many boys and girls in their family, except for Shizi and Li Weizhen, there is only one eleven-year-old cousin, and there are as many as nine concubines and concubines.
The son Li Weibo has been married for six years, and he has an eldest son and two young ladies under his knees.
Five of the nine ladies of the same generation were married, and those who stayed at home were all concubines, except for the ninth lady Li Youlan, who was born.
is a typical woman who does not keep a man, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are the same, every time Mrs. Lan thinks of this, she feels a little cold in her heart.
But when I thought of the friendship between Mrs. An Xinhou and her who grew up together, and the fact that she and the Chongbei Hou Mansion could support her daughter, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law did not dare to do too much.
For the sudden enthusiasm of the in-laws' family, Mrs. Lan was not without doubts, and specially called Cai's mother, Jinluo, and Qingluo over to ask, only then did she know that her future son-in-law had met her daughter in Chongbei Hou's Mansion.
I think it was because I saw that my daughter had grown up and had grown up in all aspects, and my future uncle liked it, which changed her original estranged attitude.
I still remember that Da Liu's mother once held grievances for her little master, and felt that Li Ergongzi was too cold and thin, not a good match, and she thought so, and she was not unshaken.
Who would know that when he was a child, the gentle and cute little boy with pink makeup will grow up and become an idea-minded and lonely fairy?
If the two families withdraw from the marriage, it will definitely endanger the official reputation of their master, and it will also hurt their daughter a lot, so they can only grit their teeth and watch it first.
Now it seems that patience is actually not a bad thing, as long as Berry can slowly like his own Qinqing, know that his daughter is good, the relationship is good, and the marriage is naturally strong.
If the young couple can fall in love, it can be regarded as a good kiss.
Thinking about it in her heart, Mrs. Lan looked at the humble and polite Li Weizhen in front of her, and she had a little bit of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, the more she looked at it, the more interesting it became, and the smile in her eyes overflowed unconcealably.
Seeing this, Lan Jiayin was secretly anxious, Li Weizhen was very distant from her in her previous life, and she could even be said to be a little cold, so her mother didn't like this one very much, but she chose her own little son-in-law, no matter how uncomfortable she was, she had to endure it.
Now, she has made up her mind not to have too much intersection with this hypocrite, but her mother doesn't know, if she thinks Li Weizhen is good, wouldn't it be even more difficult for her to want to get out of the marriage in the future?
Lan Jiayue, the sixth lady who was sitting with her, couldn't help but smile when she saw her fifth sister secretly practicing the handkerchief in her hand.
leaned over to Lan Jiayin and whispered, "Fifth sister, are you also like my second sister, are you in a hurry to get married?" ”
Lan Jiaqing's wedding date is on the twenty-sixth day of the first month, seeing that the wedding date is approaching, she is bored in the house all day long embroidering the dowry, and when she hears someone mention her future husband, she shyly rubs her handkerchief.
Lan Jiayue saw a lot, and thought that the fifth sister was also like that.
Lan Jiayin was stunned by what she said, and wanted to defend herself, looking at her sister who was one year younger than herself, laughing innocently and romanticly, and feeling that there was no way to talk about it.
Don't say it, isn't it a tacit acquiescence that you hate to marry?
was about to open his mouth to defend one or two, but when he saw Li Weizhen smiling at this side, he had to laugh at it, so as not to attract more attention.
Lan Jiayue saw her hanging her head and was silent, so she thought that she had guessed correctly, and couldn't help but become more and more proud.
Sitting at their table was Li Youlan, who was most unaccustomed to Lan Jiayin, and felt that this fifth lady wanted nothing, she was stupid and couldn't do anything, and she was not worthy of her perfect second brother at all.
Seeing Lan Jiayin shy and timid, pretentious and disgusting, I secretly thought that such a person could be his future second sister-in-law?
Dajue God was unfair, and his heart became more and more angry, and he couldn't help but smile and ask Lan Jiayin, "Sister Yin, sister is curious, what gift did you bring to my second brother?" ”
"I prepared a Duan inkstone and Wuxi rice paper." This is still prepared by Mrs. Lan, Lan Jiayin doesn't care about someone, so she doesn't have Zhang Luo at all.
Originally, according to Mrs. Lan's intention, she asked Mama Kang to teach her daughter to embroider a fan bag for her future uncle, but unfortunately Lan Jiayin was not happy in her heart.
Not only did he procrastinate for three days of fishing, but he also deliberately embroidered the work miserably, but it was not even as good as the handkerchief given to his grandmother.
Mrs. Lan had no choice but to choose a piece of Duan inkstone from the previous dynasty at her husband in the outer courtyard, and scavenged five valuable Wuxi rice paper, and the gift to her future son-in-law was finally a good thing.
Li Youlan listened to what the other party said simply, and seemed to know in her heart that these two objects were definitely not vulgar things, and if she wanted to find something, she was afraid that she would not be happy to find it for herself.
His eyes couldn't help but roll, and he turned his face and asked Lan Jiayu and Lan Jiayue with a smile, Lan Jiayue gave a pair of lake pens, and Lan Jiayu gave a wenge pen holder.
"Why do you send all of these?" Li Youlan was very discouraged when she heard this, she wanted to save Lan Jiayin's face, and tried every possible way to introduce the topic to something that someone was not good at.
In a hurry, she ignored it, as a woman, how could she give away her embroidered objects at will?
Lan Jiayu looked at her and guessed that this Miss Anxin Houfu, who didn't like Lan Jiayin, was thinking about something in her heart.
After thinking about it, he took out a pink sachet embroidered with butterfly love flowers from his arms, and asked Lu Yun to give it to Li Youlan, and said with great humility: "In previous years, we used to give some small jewelry when we met, but this year, my sister's craftsmanship has improved, so I embroidered a sachet, and my sister must not dislike it." ”
This is just when someone handed the pillow when she wanted to fall asleep, Li Youlan was secretly happy in her heart, "This is really good!" ”
The person who turned the sachet over and over again, praised it in surprise, and finally simply took it to Mrs. An Xinhou, and asked his mother with a smile, "Look, is this sachet good-looking?" ”
Mrs. An Xinhou will be mistaken, thinking that it was embroidered by Lan Jiayin, but if she didn't know it, she still embroidered it for her son, and immediately praised it in the sky and on the earth.
Li Youlan took it back happily and said with a smile: "My daughter also thinks it's good, this is the fourth sister of the Lan family who gave her daughter." ”
turned around and asked Lan Jiayin with a smile, "What about you?" Sister Yin, take a look at your gift and make my sister happy. ”
The gift list was all drawn up by Mrs. Lan, Lan Jiayin remembered to give Li Youlan, it seemed to be an ivory-handled Suzhou embroidered banana fan, and the things had been taken by the Li family steward for eight lifetimes, so what other gifts did she have?
Originally, she explained it well, and everyone also understood that everyone's congratulatory gifts have always been based on only looking at the gift list, and then they will send their personal gifts to each person's yard according to the gift list.
Li Youlan came to this scene unexpectedly, it was her fault, and it would be over if she ignored her.
But Lan Jiayin didn't deal with this one in his previous life, and he was even more unwilling to settle things, so as soon as his heart moved, he reached out and took off the ivory Ruyi pressure skirt tied around his waist and inlaid with rubies.
This delicate little Ruyi is less than two inches long, carved with intricate hollow peony patterns, and each end is inlaid with a fiery red ruby, which is a valuable thing at first glance.
She walked to Li Youlan's side with a smile, put the ivory Ruyi hands on her hands, and said with a smile: "Sister Lan, you also know, sister, I am not good at female popularity, but I don't have a sachet, but this ivory Ruyi can be seen, sister, don't dislike it, play in your spare time, and relieve your boredom." ”
