The people of the Ru family were specially invited to the Shangguo Mansion for the first time in more than ten years after Ru Fengya married into the An family.

Because An Xiangyi took the initiative to put it forward, Mrs. An had a statement.

"Over the years, Xiangyi has been an official in other provinces, so he neglected his in-laws, and this year is the first year he has stayed in Beijing as an official, so he specially invited his in-laws to apologize."

Although the old lady used humble words, her attitude was justified.

The reason for neglecting his mother's family is shifted from the disharmony of husband and wife to being an official in other provinces, so that it is not rude, and it will save the face of the Ru family.

What can the people of the Ru family say?

I have always heard that their young lady and uncle are not in good spirits, and my uncle has been staying in other provinces in order to be indifferent to their young lady, and is unwilling to return to Beijing, so that their young lady has not come out for more than ten years of marriage.

They are even worried that if this continues, their young lady will only be persuaded to retire, or get a letter of resignation to cover her home on the grounds of unfilial piety?

Now, their aunt has been back in Beijing for less than a month, so he sent a post to his mother's family, inviting all the relatives of his mother's family to come to the door.

Since their aunt has returned to Beijing, their young lady is pregnant and has a child just around the corner, right?

The Ru family was not prosperous, with only one man and one woman in each generation.

Ru Fengya's grandfather and grandmother gave birth to Ru Fengya's father and aunt, and Ru Fengya's father also had a son and a daughter, the youngest daughter Ru Fengya married the Guogong Mansion, and the eldest son Ru Shiyin married the daughter of another Beijing official, and there was a son and a daughter under his knees.

So this time, An Xiangyi invited Ru Fengya's family to a banquet, and even Ru Fengya's aunt's family also made a post.

An Xiangyi does this, please more people. But just to invite that person: Ru Fengya's cousin Song Qingshan, the eldest son of Ru Fengya's aunt.

Although it was a four-room treat, the second wife deliberately arranged the banquet in the largest banquet room in the Guogong Mansion, and the dishes were the same as those for the banquet princes.

It's all for the sake of the old lady who dotes on the fourth wife, and even more, the four-room family has only been in the Guogong Mansion once for more than ten years, which is like her second-room house. That's a lot of comings and goings.

The second lady also did this to ask the old lady to see. She is in charge of the back house, and she is by no means selfish, unlike when the eldest lady holds the key to the house. So stingy and mean, he won't be a man.

In the study, the fourth lady An Nianyu pestered the third lady An Nianshu and asked, "Third sister, third sister." There are guests in our Guogong Mansion again, did the second aunt invite the troupe to come to the mansion like the last banquet to invite the princes? ”

An Nianshu rolled her eyes: "Last time, it was the princes." This time it's just a relative of the fourth aunt's family, what face do you want to invite the troupe? ”

An Nianyu was full of loss when she heard such an answer, but the second wife really invited the troupe this time. But it's not as grand as the last one. It's just a small show, but it's still the Lianzhu class.

An Shenbai happily told his sister the news, and An Nianyu got carried away and went to the backstage of the drama troupe.

It's still the Lianzhu class. It's still her little lady An.

An Nianyu doesn't care about the pomp and circumstance of the performance, as long as it is her sister An singing. And she was complete.

So, An Nianyu didn't think about tea and dinner all day, and only sat under the stage, as if her buttocks had grown with the chair, but her eyes were with An Xiaoniang on the stage.

The second wife invited the troupe to sing, or the idea of the fourth master An Xiangyi.

He wants to be very thoughtful about the people of the Ru family in terms of etiquette, and give Ru Fengya the greatest face, and at that time, when the ugly truth is revealed, Ru Fengya will also fall the worst and most ugly.

All day long when the people of the Ru family came to be guests, An Xiangyi and Ru Fengya were together, entertaining the people of the Ru family with a spring breeze, kowtowing to the father-in-law and mother-in-law, serving tea and water, accompanying the brother-in-law to the mountains, chatting about the sea and the sky, An Xiangyi has always done a good job.

Ru Fengya was still worried about what kind of medicine was sold in An Xiangyi's gourd day and night, with more than ten years of understanding of this person, he had never been so kind.

But today, looking at An Xiangyi's expression, Ru Fengya felt that Xu was too careful, he really had the heart to break the mirror and reunite, but he misunderstood him.

Lu Shui looked at the enthusiastic An Xiangyi, and muttered to Ru Fengya: "The fourth master is also enthusiastic today, it seems that he has changed his personality." ”

"Isn't it good to be a different person?" Ru Fengya asked with a smile.

Lu Shui pouted, if it really changed, of course it would be good, but I am afraid that this qiē is a trap and a conspiracy.

Lu Shui is unspeakably worried in his heart, in the past ten years of the life of the fourth wife of the An family, Lu Shui has seen it all in his eyes, her young lady is too bitter, so Lu Shui's opinion on An Xiangyi is extremely big.

If the fourth master really changed his way and wanted to be good to her young lady, it would be fine, if the fourth old man did these things that hid other ulterior secrets and hurt her young lady, she would definitely fight with him.

Green Water doesn't care what the four masters are, the fourth wife is her destiny.

At the banquet, I couldn't see anything wrong with An Xiangyi, I saw that his filial piety and intimate greeting made the two old men of the Ru family smile, and provoked Ru Fengya's aunt to praise the Ru family for getting a good son-in-law.

It is said that the son-in-law is half a son, and the second elder can be regarded as having a reliable backer.

The second elder of the Ru family felt that he had extra face on his face.

The next thing is to go to the stage to watch the play, and halfway through it, An Xiangyi suddenly asked the second elder of the Ru family to resign, saying that he had something to go back to Fengyayuan with the fourth wife, and the second elder of the Ru family hurriedly asked the fourth wife to follow him.

An Xiangyi found another reason to take away the green water, but the green water was not at ease, but Ru Fengya shook her head at the green water to signal that she was out of the way, so the husband and wife left the stage and returned to Fengya Garden.

An Xiangyi took the fourth wife's hand and left everyone's sight, and the second elder of the Ru family looked at the extremely loving backs of the couple, and the stones in their hearts fell to the ground.

Aunt Ru said: "It is said that our aunt does not understand the amorous feelings, but now it seems that the gossip outside is groundless." ”

The old lady of the Ru family said: "Do you also believe the rumors outside?" It's you, your family's lifelong event hasn't come to an end! ”

Aunt Ru's face couldn't help but darken, she was most afraid of being talked about her son's family affairs in front of her, her son was a tendon and a cow temper.

Aunt Ru pretended to turn her head and look around, and found that Song Qingshan was not under the stage: "Eh, where is Qingshan?" ”

"Shicai is still under the stage." The old lady of the Ru family said.

Song Qingshan was sitting under the two old locust trees in the courtyard of Fengyayuan, drinking tea.

Under the old locust tree, there is a good Nanmu coffee table, and the round stool is also directly made of matching Nanmu stakes, which is antique and interesting.

And the old locust tree and the new branches of the old locust tree above the head have a different taste.

Song Qingshan drank alone, although he was drinking tea, not drinking, but he had been sitting for a long time and was also drunk, and he was persuaded to drink a few glasses of wine at the banquet before, so he was a little blind.

He looked left and right at the garden, and although the garden was good, he did not see the person he wanted to see in his dreams, and he was a little regretful.

He had looked at her a few times at the banquet before, but there were too many people, and he didn't dare to look at it more, so at this moment he couldn't help but hope that she could pass by the garden, so he took a closer look at her a few times to relieve the pain of lovesickness for more than ten years.

He has been guarding her like a jade until now, who can understand this persistence?

Song Qingshan was worried in his heart, and An Xiangyi's voice came from outside the garden: "Fengya, you go to the garden first, I suddenly remembered that I had something left under the stage, and Ah Fu didn't follow me this time, so I went to get it myself, and you go back to the garden and wait for me." ”

Ru Fengya was noncommittal, and An Xiangyi went away.

Then, Song Qingshan saw a beautiful young woman walking into the gate of the garden, who was his cousin Ru Fengya. (To be continued.) )
