Chapter 173: Shangxiang Meets
Yan Xiaoyue changed the subject, "Mother-in-law, the second lady of Jiang Mansion said that she was coming to the mansion on the sixth day of the junior high school, were you free that day?" ”
"Second lady? Is there something wrong with her coming? Fang Yajie asked suspiciously, and then reacted, "Is it for Xiaoxiao and the second son of Jiang Fu?" ”
Yan Xiaoyue was strange now, "You know? ”
Fang Yajie said with a smile: "I'll just say, why did Second Mrs. Jiang come to me at the previous meetings, it turned out to be like this." Jiang Ergongzi, Yueniang, you have been in Jiang's Mansion for so long, do you know what kind of person the second son is? Do you think this family affair can be done? ”
Speaking of this, Fang Yajie was really relieved, her stepmother was embarrassed. Xuan Zhujia was originally nodding to the master, although she was pulling the strings, but the main responsibility was not on her.
But now that she is going to re-elect people, she is really a little confused, and she doesn't dare to make a decision easily. used to want Xiaoxiao to marry her grandmother's house, but the master made it clear that it was impossible to let Xiaoxiao marry far away, so she could only choose her husband's family in the imperial city.
Now the Zhu family looks hopeless, but the Jiang Mansion has news again. With Yueniang in the middle, she is still talking about Jiang Fu, she is much more relaxed, even if something unsatisfactory happens in the future, Yueniang will share it, she doesn't have to take too much responsibility.
Yan Xiaoyue blinked, what did Fang Shi mean by this, she had just opened her mouth, and Fang Shi wanted her to come up with an idea?
"Mother-in-law, the second aunt may come to the house purely to get close to you, and it doesn't have to be for the sake of her children, so let's not mess up the situation first. I'll know when my second aunt comes on the sixth day of junior high school. As for Jiang Ergongzi? I haven't been in Jiang's Mansion for a few months. The second son followed his grandfather on an errand and was not often in the house, so I really didn't pay attention to him. After saying that, he lowered his eyes.
Fang's brows furrowed, and he opened his mouth for a long time and finally swallowed.
Yan Xiaoyue lowered her head and drank the tea, as if she didn't understand what Fang meant by the Fang family. She treats Xiaoxiao as a relative, how can she not plan for her affairs? It's just that Yan Xiaoyue already treats Yang Xiao'er's affairs as her own business, Fang's design of her like this really makes her hateful, she naturally can't let Fang's wish go, how can she think of improper responsibility? Didn't Xiaoxiao's mother, who had been calling for so many years, scream in vain?
What was the specific situation of the meeting on the sixth day of the first month, Yan Xiaoyue didn't understand. Just looking at the smiling face of Second Mrs. Jiang, you can see that the progress is good.
The New Year is busy. Either someone came to the house to pay New Year's greetings, or they went to the good house to pay New Year's greetings, and they were busy until the fifteenth day of the first month.
Early in the morning, Yan Xiaoyue was called by Jin Ling.
"Master. Today, the ladies in the house are going to Huguo Temple to offer incense. You can't be late. ”
Yan Xiaoyue got up with difficulty. I really can't figure out why I went out early in the morning on such a cold day and went all the way to Huguo Temple. Just for the sake of incense? I really don't understand what Old Madam Jiang is thinking.
The crowd of people who go to Huguo Temple to offer incense on the Midyear Festival makes the usually clean road seem bustling. The carriage of the Jiang Mansion went straight up and did not stop until it stopped in front of the main hall.
Yan Xiaoyue smiled in her heart, remembering that when she went to Huguo Temple for the first time, she got off the car as soon as she arrived at the foot of the mountain, and watched many official carriages go straight up, and she was still a little envious in her heart, but she didn't expect to be able to enjoy such treatment today.
Yan Xiaoyue got out of the carriage and saw that the second lady was helping Mrs. Jiang, preparing to get out of the car, so she hurriedly took two steps forward and helped the old lady down.
Then the four little ladies of the Jiang Mansion also came over, and everyone walked to the main hall together.
As soon as she entered the main hall, Yan Xiaoyue saw familiar people. hurriedly walked over and said with a smile: "Mother-in-law, Xiaoxiao, why are you here too?" ”
Fang Yajie also smiled: "Today, on the fifteenth day, I thought about coming to the temple to pray for peace, and by the way, I also helped Xiaoxiao ask for a sign." After speaking, she looked at Yang Xiao'er lovingly.
Yan Xiaoyue followed Fang's gaze, only to see Yang Xiao'er shyly lower her head and clench the bamboo stick in her hand.
"Xiaoxiao, what good lottery did you draw? Show me. ”
Yang Xiao'er hid her hand behind her, "Why is my sister here today?" ”
Yan Xiaoyue then remembered the people in the Jiang Mansion, so she stopped talking about the signing, and pulled Xiaoxiao and Fang Yajie to the old lady Jiang and introduced them one by one, in fact, she introduced Fang Yajie to everyone.
Mrs. Jiang loves to be pure, and there are very few banquets in the house, and any flower and snow banquets have nothing to do with the Jiang Mansion, so Jiang Siyao invited a few good sisters to gather in the house. Therefore, Fang Yajie and everyone in Jiang Mansion seem to be very familiar, but they really haven't seen each other.
After the salute, everyone began to greet each other. Fang Yajie and the second lady accompanied Mrs. Jiang to worship the Buddha, and Yan Xiaoyue took all the little ladies to visit the temple, of course, the plum blossom scene in the temple is indispensable.
After finishing the meal, everyone was ready to go down the mountain, but before they left the palace gate, they saw Jiang Siyan and Jiang Siqi walking together.
After seeing the ceremony, Yan Xiaoyue approached Jiang Siyan's side, "Why is Xianggong here?" ”
"I'm done, so I'm thinking I'll come and pick you up." Jiang Siyan raised his hand to help Yan Xiaoyue hold the hairpin, and by the way, he took the tender little hand.
Jiang Siqi stood beside Mrs. Jiang obediently, gently holding the old lady's arm, and greeted Fang Yajie with a gentle smile, her eyes were straight, except for nodding and greeting Yang Xiao'er, she looked like a humble gentleman.
As for whether this is really the case in his heart, only he knows.
Looking at Fang Yajie's satisfied face, Yan Xiaoyue finally knew that the incense on the Huguo Temple this time was just a cover, and the real purpose was to give the children of both sides a look, or to let Fang Yajie take a look at Jiang Siqi.
For this scene, Yan Xiaoyue was really speechless, did she really want Xiaoxiao to marry Jiang Siqi? Except for Jiang Siqi himself, the Jiang family is still good, especially after Yan Xiaoyue experienced it herself, she had to praise it.
Mrs. Jiang is old-fashioned and re-oriented, and she has everything in her hands in the house, and her daughter-in-law and the like only need to take care of her own yard.
Although the old lady has great power, she absolutely obeys Master Jiang's words, and Jiang Zhongxian, as the head of the family, as long as he does not hurt the interests of the family, he is not at ease.
Although the second lady has many shortcomings, such as being unassertive, such as being introverted, and even a little cowardly in Yan Xiaoyue's opinion, such a person pays great attention to family and children, and she will be a mother-in-law who is easy to get along with.
In the past, Yan Xiaoyue always took too much fancy to this person as a father-in-law, but later, after Jiang Siyan's persuasion and personal experience, she found that women in this era were confined to the square courtyard, and most of the time was spent with her mother-in-law, and in the first time of being a wife, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was the most important.
