Chapter 40 Kissing
Ning Chengsi was very busy, and he hardly left home, and he also got into the concubine's house. In order to discuss Ning Yuan's marriage, Mrs. Ding specially instructed the kid to intercept people at the gate, and after the two discussed, it was too late to say that the bargaining was over, so Ning Pao simply rested at Mrs. Ding.
Mrs. Ding changed his clothes for him at night, and found that there was a jade bracelet hidden in his clothes, this jade bracelet was obviously not for her, the husband and wife for more than 20 years, the relationship has changed from strong to light, and now she only has her son in her eyes, she saw this thing, sneered and still put it back in its place, Ning Chengsi saw that Mrs. Ding saw the bracelet, and she didn't care at all, and she didn't even have an explanation. At night, the two lay together and were fine.
The next day, Mrs. Ding got up early in the morning, freshened up, and went to the quiet room to do morning classes before leaving for Old Lady Ning.
When Mrs. Ning is old, she either wakes up early and gets up before dawn, or she gets up late, sometimes in the middle of the morning.
Mrs. Ding only brought a little maid, and the door of the old lady's bedroom was closed, and the girl in front of the old lady, Shizuka, gestured to her, and she knew that the old lady must not have gotten up at this time, so she turned around and went to the front to wait.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw my aunt Ning Biyun sitting in the house with a small golden hammer and smashing walnuts, she was used to greeting her, and smiled at the moment: "You still have a heart, yesterday the old lady said that she wanted to eat walnut cake, and the big guys forgot about it, and you remembered it when you were born." "The old lady was born in a wealthy family in a small town in the south of the Yangtze River, and she is used to living a leisurely and rich life, eating, wearing, living and traveling but seeking fine, this little golden hammer is the old man's marriage, specially used to smash walnuts, three inches long, carved on the handle, very exquisite.
When a girl gets married, her mother's dowry is enough for her daughter to live in her husband's house for a lifetime, and some rich ladies' dowry works from the marriage bed to the spittoon toilet. Even on the dowry list, from the small gold scissors for manicure to the gold ear digging for ear picking, the silver chopsticks and jade bowl for eating, to the eight crabs for eating crabs, and then to the small gold hammer for smashing walnuts, there are only those that the poor family can't think of, and there is nothing that can't be seen.
At the beginning, Mrs. Ning had already married Ning Chenghe, the Ding family was not bad, even higher than the Ning family, the old man Ding intended to marry his daughter to another family, Mrs. Ding herself was not happy to marry Ning Chenghe, wiping her neck and hanging herself to marry him, her mother's family was so angry that her dowry was also hasty, except for the cloth that should be produced in the field, there was nothing else, and there were no small objects to dowry. The Golden Hammer is small, but it is of great significance! It's the parents' wishes, I hope you go to your in-laws' house, and every little thing will go well.
Mrs. Ding herself knew in her heart that her dowry looked like a lot, and she gave everything that should be given, which was all superficial decency, but she did not have the will of her parents, because her parents did not approve of it in their hearts.
She is envious of the old lady's everything, she especially likes this little golden hammer, when Ning Biyun became a married old lady, she gave this little hammer as a dowry to Ning Biyun, she was sour next to her for a long time, and now Ning Biyun was driven back by her mother-in-law, this hammer was also brought back, she looked a little happy, what about her parents' intentions, and she didn't send it back: "This golden hammer is the old lady's dowry at a glance, and only you, the old lady is willing to give it to you." β
Ning Biyu didn't like this sister-in-law very much, so she just smiled at the moment: "Sister-in-law is here!" "I didn't speak, I still smashed the walnuts.
Ning Biyu is more than ten years younger than Ning Pai, and now she is in her early thirties, and she has been going back to her parents' house since she left her husband, and she brought back a lot of money to marry when she came back. Ning Biyu didn't pay much attention to her, and she smiled like a flower.
Ning Biyu finished smashing the walnuts, gently took off the gold armor she wore on her hand, handed it to the little girl to put it away, took a handkerchief to wipe her hands, wiped her hands and tied the handkerchief to the bracelet on her wrist, and took a sip of tea: "I have a sentence that I know it is not appropriate to tell my sister-in-law, but since I live in my mother's house, I have to say it when I see it." β
Mrs. Ding immediately laughed and said, "What are you talking about, you are an aunt and grandmother, what is there to say." β
Ning Biyu herself has big sword eyebrows, and she has her own momentum when she sits upright, and now her sword eyebrows are raised: "I only ask you, do you know anything about sending children outside!" β
Mrs. Ding knew her son's virtues, but she only felt embarrassed and blushed: "I don't know what my aunt and grandmother are talking about?" β
Ning Biyun snorted coldly: "You don't know, right?" The eldest son of our Ning family is now more and more breathing, and he usually goes to the **** in the building, this son actually went to someone's house, this family is not another family, you know Li Hu in the army! It's his house. β
Mrs. Ding: "......"
"You are smart in vain, you think of some evil ways, and your son was taught like this by you." After speaking, he said: "I haven't told Mrs. SΓΉ about this. β
Mrs. Ding immediately stood up and said with a smile: "I don't even know about this, you must not tell the old lady at this time, you know your brother, the old lady knows about this, he knows, I'm afraid he will ......"
"A loving mother is so defeated, what a well-behaved child when she was in front of me, and you brought her like this! Don't let your husband discipline yourself, let anyone discipline her! β
Mrs. Ding couldn't hold it anymore: "I'm a woman, I haven't read two sentences, I haven't written two words, I'm a vulgar person who can't manage my son, I hope you can take care of it." The circles under his eyes were red, and he actually cried.
β¦β¦
The two were arguing, and the girl came in with the curtain: "The old lady is up." Mrs. Ding shook her hand, got up and went in to serve the old lady.
Mrs. Ning doesn't look very old, she is happy to enjoy it, and she is well maintained, standing with Mrs. Ding, people are afraid that they will think they are sisters, and Mrs. Ning smiled like a Maitreya Buddha: "You still have to worry about Yuan'er's marriage." β
"A few days ago, I went to my hometown to repair the book, and asked my hometown to help, I originally picked two suitable ones, the family is equivalent, the appearance is outstanding, and I know the roots, one is a distant relative of my mother's family, and the other is the eldest daughter of Tongzhi County, you also know my relationship with my sister, and the grandfather also thought of this layer! This distant relative of the mother's family is more prominent than Miss Tong's, so it's better to forget it. β
She really wanted to find an ugly and fierce mother-in-law for Ning Yuan, but the relationship between Mrs. Ding and Ning Chengsi had long been as respectful as ice, Ning Chengsi would not believe her, and he would definitely send someone to inquire about the person she picked.
Mrs. Ding is also a strong person, but unfortunately Ning Cheng really doesn't fight for herself, and she can't control Ning Chenghei, if Ning Chengsi has to promote Ning Chengsi, Mrs. Ding can only watch.
She can only retreat to the next best thing, and she can get a more family property for Ning Pao.
Yesterday, the two discussed Ning Yuan's marriage, and she had the heart to play tricks! Let's not mention Ning Yuan's marriage, what should I do with the hundreds of acres of land in my hometown!?
The two have shared the same bed for many years, as soon as she opened her mouth, Ning Chengsi knew what she was doing, Ning Chengsi did not say anything, that land is only a few hundred acres, it is nothing, Mrs. Ding will not spend so much effort just for that piece of land, but that piece of land is connected to the ancestral hall, and the Ning family's family temple and private school are there, so the meaning is different! This is a conspiracy to make a fortune! Ning Chengsi actually didn't look down on the ancestral industry, if he could afford the ancestral industry, he would not have left a qiΔ and ran to the southwest to earn fame, he himself is a forward-looking person, and his military achievements and family property are earned by himself, and he can't look down on this kind of person who is not motivated and only plots for his own family's one-third of an acre. It stands to reason that Ning Cheng is the eldest son, this thing was originally his, Ning Chengsi is still a bowl of water, even if he has the intention of bringing the younger son, he doesn't plan to give everything to the younger son, he is still willing to give this ancestral business to the eldest son. Mrs. Ding's move is redundant and self-defeating, because Ning Chenghei is a person who does not suffer losses, if you set him up like this, he won't get into it, so he won't give it!
When Mrs. Ding saw that he didn't answer, she knew that he was deliberately prevaricating, so she only singled out the daughter of her distant relative, saying how good she was! In fact, she knew that Ning Chengsi would definitely look down on it, deliberately!
Sure enough, Ning Chengsi didn't look at it. She deliberately lost her temper, claiming that if she didn't agree, she would leave it alone.
Ning Chenghei can't divorce Mrs. Ding in order to marry his daughter-in-law! He knew that Mrs. Ding would definitely do it, and if she didn't meet her requirements, she would really be able to pick and choose at that time! Leaving Mrs. Ding aside, it doesn't look like he and the old lady are doing it together, a big family has a hostess, and it is impossible to marry a daughter-in-law and the hostess is not present. Counting on Mrs. Ning, Mrs. Ning can't care about it, and she has to look at Mrs. Ding!
Ning Chengsi had to give her the 100 acres of fertile land in her hometown, and Mrs. Ding got a satisfactory answer before she proposed the daughter of the Tong family, and also said to Ning Chengsi that as long as the title deed was given to Ning Sheng, she would agree to do it, and Ning Chengsi had to agree.
The two of them each brought chips, each with their needs, bargained, and finally negotiated a price, satisfied with each other, and the husband and wife lived like this, Mrs. Ding herself smiled self-deprecatingly.
She came to the old lady the next day. She has always coaxed the old lady well, she will believe whatever she says, this time, the old lady did not doubt him, nodded, very satisfied: "You are a proper person." β
Due to Mrs. Ning's deliberate delay, the affairs of the palace maids were put on hold for the time being, and the palace maids were working in the quartermaster department. There are also those who cry and shout to go back to the palace, and people's hearts will begin to panic. At this time, there is no Liu Er, everyone can't make trouble, only three or five groups of people quarrel together, Mrs. Ning released the news at this time at the right time that as long as you want to change, you are willing to continue to stay in the quartermaster department to work, you can still change, there is only one chance, at this time, those young palace maids themselves are afraid of getting married, this time they will go to Mrs. Ning to change, come back to thank Dade, the big guys know that it is the idea of the army, no one blames Mrs. Ning, and said that she has a good temper and can be accommodating.
Yuehua watched the whole time.
She can see it clearly, in fact, from the palace maid to the present, she has experienced so many twists and turns, in fact, the fundamental has not changed, they still have to be matched, they are military households in this life, and they are also military households in the next life, their husbands lead troops to fight in this life, and their sons go to the battlefield with weapons in the next life.
It hasn't changed from start to finish.
Yuehua was weaving cloth in her seat, and Si'er came over and said to her quite worriedly: "Sister, do you say I should stay here or go to ......?"
