After the guests left, the eldest princess stopped Wan Niang and asked her to go to her study in a while, she had something to say. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

After Wan Niang returned to Maple Leaf Garden and settled Maple Ye'er and Xuanxuan, she went to the eldest princess's study.

"Mother, you just came back today, don't be in such a hurry about things in the store, I have sorted out all the things, and I'm going to show my mother after my mother is resting."

When Wan Niang arrived at the study, she spoke.

The eldest princess smiled and said, "It's not those things in the store, I feel very relieved that you do things." I asked you to come because I wanted to tell you something else. ”

"Oh."

Wan Niang nodded, curious, what is the important thing at such a late hour? And tell her alone.

"Actually, it's not a big deal, I just want you to get up a little early tomorrow and get ready. Tomorrow, the mother and daughter of the Hu family will come to our Hou Mansion. ”

The eldest princess said.

"The mother and daughter of the Hu family? Is it Miss Hu who is ready to discuss marriage with her second brother as mentioned in her mother's letter? ”

Wan Niang asked.

"Well, yes. We originally went to Beijing together, but your father and I wanted to see Yue'er's shop, and your Aunt Hu and Tingting wanted to go home early to visit Mrs. Hu, so we went separately when we were at the city gate. We've already said they'll be here tomorrow. ”

The eldest princess explained.

"Oh, that mother mean let me prepare lunch and dinner?"

Wan Niang thought about it and said.

"Not exactly. Originally, it could have been prepared in the kitchen, but you Hu Bomu didn't know where to hear that the dishes in Cheongju Zuixian Lou were related to you, so I mentioned it, and I was thinking, you can prepare lunch and dinner. There are not many of them, just your aunt and mother and daughter, as well as Tingting, her eldest aunt and two cousins, may come with them, and there are not so many others. ”

The eldest princess took a sip of tea and continued: "What's more, Tingting's marriage into the Hou Mansion in a few months is already completely certain, and you will also be concubines in the future, it's okay to get to know each other first, both of you are quite satisfactory to me, so I'm not worried that you won't get along well." There's just one thing I want to make clear to you first. ”

After speaking, the eldest princess looked at Wan Niang.

Wan Niang said: "Mother, just say it." ”

The eldest princess nodded and said, "I think Yue'er should also be able to get married next year, so I think that after Tingting marries in, all the big and small matters in the house will be handed over to Tingting, and we will do things outside with peace of mind." I'm telling you this because I'm afraid that your heart will be unbalanced in the future. ”

Wan Niang shook her head and said, "Mother, you think too much." Junsheng told me that the situation of our family is quite special, and the Hou Mansion will be the second brother's in the future, and I know this. So, I didn't think much of it at first. I would also like to thank my mother for taking me to do this and that, I prefer to do things outside rather than manage the backyard. It just so happens that the second brother and sister are about to enter the door in the future, and I have to thank her! ”

The eldest princess saw that Wanniang said sincerely, and she was also relieved.

smiled: "Okay, then let's marry Tingting home quickly, and then let go to do things outside." This time when I went to Fuzhou, I specially learned about it, if the paradise in the capital is good, I can go there next year to start building, Fuzhou and Hangzhou I have land, the location is the same as the capital, not far from the state capital. ”

"Mother, let's talk about it, we'll talk about it in two days, you better rest early tonight!"

Wan Niang suddenly interrupted the eldest princess.

The eldest princess was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said, "Okay, then we'll talk about it in two days." You go back to rest early, too. ”

After Wan Niang came out of the eldest princess's room, she went back to sleep directly.

I have to get up early tomorrow morning, although there are only a few female guests, but I can't slack off others.

Junsheng hasn't returned to the room yet, and is in the old lady's study with Hou Ye.

The three ancestors and grandchildren should be talking about very important things, Wan Niang didn't care so much, after washing, let Rushi leave a lamp, and fell asleep by herself.

The next morning, Wan Niang woke up.

Junsheng left the house early again.

After freshening up, Wan Niang went to the courtyard where Xiao Ye'er practiced martial arts.

Because Xuanxuan is leaving, Xiao Ye'er has been a little absent-minded when she has been practicing recently. Except for taking her and Xuanxuan to go shopping in the morning, Xiao Ye'er was not as happy as before at other times.

Wan Niang also had no choice, she only thought in her heart that the child might be fine in a few days.

Looking at the listless Xiao Ye'er, Wan Niang asked her and Xuanxuan to stop, took them to wash, and then went to the dining room.

Feng'er didn't have to eat breakfast in the Hou Mansion in the morning, and after saying goodbye to Wanniang and them, she also went to the palace with her schoolbag.

At breakfast, Wan Niang told the eldest princess about today's plans.

Cook grilled fish at noon and eat hot pot at night.

When the old lady heard this, she hurriedly said: "Hey, the rounds of mahjong yesterday afternoon haven't been finished yet, and today I must finish playing with Old Man Yan, Wanniang, don't count me in!" But for the hot pot in the evening, I must come back to eat, by the way, count a few more people, and I will bring the old man Yan and them too. ”

Wan Niang smiled and should be.

She knew that the old lady didn't like to eat grilled fish, but hot pot, that was very much like.

For pastries, Wan Niang is going to make some hawthorn cakes and sugar gourds, and the rest is just the usual dim sum.

The eldest princess has never eaten hawthorn cake, and when she heard Wan Niang, she was also interested.

Hou Ye also said that he would not come back for dinner at noon, and when he came back in the evening, he also asked Wan Niang to prepare more, and he might have to call Duan Wangye.

In this way, only the female dependents of the Hou Mansion and the Hu family were the female dependents of the Hou Mansion and the Hu family who ate at home at noon.

Qin Jue originally wanted to stay at home, but Qin Yue said, "Second brother, what are you staying for, the family is full of women, you are here, people are not good at talking, come back in the evening!" ”

So, Qin Jue had no choice but to go out.

After the big men in the house left, Wan Niang began to prepare.

Hawthorn cake and sugar gourd can be made by people in the kitchen, this does not need to be done by Wan Niang, she just needs to prepare the grilled fish at noon, and boil the base for making hot pot at night.

Qin Yue and Bai Ling were on the side to help.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the daughter of the Hu family came.

Last night, the eldest princess said that Hu Ting's mother and daughter, her eldest aunt, mother and daughter all came, but there were three more people. Aunt Hu Ting's daughter-in-law and a pair of children.

After the eldest princess asked Wan Niang and Qin Yue to come out to meet someone, Qin Yue stayed, and Wan Niang continued to go back to the kitchen to do things.

The guests are here, and Wan Niang can have dinner no matter how busy she is for half an hour.

The hawthorn cake and sugar gourd that had already been made, Wan Niang asked the maid to serve them out with the other pastries. (To be continued.) )
