(Seriously ill, ask for leave ~~~ Repeat the chapter, refresh tomorrow~~)

"Father......" Master Chen didn't know how to explain this matter.

The old man waved his hand and said, "Houyun has traveled a lot of places in the past few years, and there is no shortage of experienced veterans under him. I am relieved that he will arrange for someone to send you off. Since the Zhou family got married, she has not returned to her parents' home, which means that our Chen family can't stand her. If you go this time, you only need to be able to rush back in the New Year, you don't have to go too quickly on the road, and you can stay at Zhou's house for a while. ”

"If it's not for the daughter-in-law of good performance, it's not a big deal if you celebrate the New Year in the Zhou family." Old Man Chen said: "There are rules for the daily chores at home, and she can be busy with the New Year's Festival, but the woman's labor is a major event, and she is young, so I am afraid that she will panic when the time comes." ”

The old man's words have come to this point, and it is difficult for Master Chen to explain that he and his wife have not yet made a decision, so they can only settle down like this. In this case, he had to hurry back and tell his wife......

When Mrs. Chen heard the news at first glance, she was also stunned for a moment.

"I have already asked the old man for instructions, and the old man sympathizes with you for not returning to your parents' house all these years, so he immediately agreed to come down and let Houyun arrange a carriage and horse itinerary for us." Master Chen panicked, concealed his son's instigation, and only regarded it as a decision made by himself immediately: "You hurry up and salute." New Year's gift or something, hurry up to draw up a list, open the warehouse to find something. If not, let the stewards hurry up and buy it. ”

"That's it?" Mrs. Chen still couldn't believe that she was going to leave Beijing in three days to return to her parents' home.

"So it was decided." Master Chen said: "Drag it out again." You will be busy again, and you will not have time to spare. Hurry up, is there anything I need to do? ”

Mrs. Chen didn't seem to hear him, she sat there stunned for a long time, and then suddenly got up and said, "Master, hurry up, find me a pen and paper to ......" Time is very tight, she needs to make a long list, and there are many things to instruct, Mrs. Chen is very nervous in her heart.

Before Master Shen Si and Mrs. Shen Si's family left. Only then did I learn that Mr. Chen was going to accompany Mrs. Chen back to Zhou's house to save her relatives. Mrs. Shen Si said "yes". He also instructed Shen Rouning to "not be lazy", and then left.

After sending off the Shen family, Mrs. Chen took Shen Rouning's hand and sighed, "Your father wants to come out of the way." Sometimes it's a real headache. Jiangxi is so far away. How can a trip to relatives be just a walk? Something I haven't remembered for more than twenty years. When I think about it, I can't wait to fly over with wings! I didn't clean up anything, I didn't explain anything. He decided that he was going to leave the day after tomorrow! ”

"Now that the date has been set, my mother will stop nagging my father. Well, what can I do for you? Shen Rouning asked with a smile. She could feel that at this moment, when Mrs. Chen held her hand, she regarded her as a trusted relative, without her previous defenses and estrangement.

It seems that Chen Houyun's attempt has already worked.

The smile on the corner of Shen Rouning's mouth became even gentler.

Mrs. Chen sighed and said, "Fortunately, there are still you at home." Otherwise, I really don't know who to count on. She couldn't help but look at Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen's clothes are still very bright, and she looks very young and beautiful with thin powder. After sending someone away, she seemed a little sleepy, but her steps back were still swaying.

Mrs. Chen couldn't help but think of what Mother Li once told her: If Mrs. Chen really wants to learn, can't she really learn to be a housekeeper? Just because she has a good sister-in-law, she can be lazy with confidence, and her mind is spent thinking about dressing up and maintenance...... Otherwise, she is not young or young, but she is still not old at all!

Mrs. Chen remembers that she was four or five years older than Mrs. Chen. But when the two of them stood together, they were already like an old woman, and Mrs. Chen was still so young! Such a bright water red, it doesn't look blinking at all on her!

Mrs. Chen came back to her senses and secretly sighed that Second Mrs. Chen couldn't count on it, but her two daughters-in-law were smart and capable, and they could finally have someone to share the burden for themselves...... She looked at Shen Rouning, a little apologetic, and said, "You and Houyun just got married, so you were given such a heavy burden all of a sudden...... Houyun is afraid that he will blame us. ”

"Isn't the second elder coming back soon?" Shen Rouning smiled and said: "There are stewards to help me, and there are examples to follow in everything, Ah Ning asked herself if she should be able to cope with it for a while." But that's when there's nothing to do. She seemed a little worried, and said, "Mother, you will definitely be able to come back a year ago, right?" ”

"Yes, I always have to come back for the New Year." Mrs. Chen replied.

"Then I'll be relieved." Shen Rou breathed a sigh of relief.

When Mrs. Chen saw her like this, she couldn't help but feel that she looked a little funny, and said in her heart, after all, she was young and had never been a housekeeper, although she didn't have a good eye, but she was still timid in her heart. Thinking that back then, there were no female elders in the house to teach, so she could only grope and fight with the housekeepers......

……

The next two days were very busy. And Shen Rouning, as the "head of the family" after she left, was also taken by Mrs. Chen's side from the morning when she woke up, listening to Mrs. Chen's instructions and teachings anytime and anywhere, so as to cope with housework in the next few days.

As for Chen Chengfang's move to the wing room, it was temporarily shelved because of the departure of Master Chen and Mrs. Chen. Mrs. Chen originally suggested that Chen Chengfang should move to Bixin Courtyard for this period of time, but Chen Houyun refused.

"He's a boy, and he can't be pampered like a little girl." Chen Houyun said: "There are so many maids and women, why can't they be taken care of?" Besides, Ah Ning will also accompany him during the day. ”

Mrs. Chen thinks that her eldest son is newly married, and he is married to the person she likes, so it is reasonable that she does not want to have a child live together at night......

"Chengfang is the eldest son, and he should be responsible since he was a child." Master Chen also said: "Now he is getting better. When we came back, we let him live in a wing. When he was three years old, he found a courtyard in the inner courtyard and lived by himself. By the age of eight, you have to move to the outer courtyard. ”

Her husband and son were all against it, and they all had their own reasons, so Mrs. Chen could only give up her previous plan according to her worries about her grandson.

Although there were many things that could not be put down, on August 20, Mrs. Chen still boarded the carriage leaving Beijing and ran towards her hometown, where she had not returned for many years.

Lord Mingjia was pregnant, so she could only be sent to the gate. Chen Houyun and Shen Rouning had to follow and send them out of the city.

Feihong took the hand of the county lord of Mingjia and slowly walked to the inner courtyard, glanced around the courtyard that was somewhat empty, and whispered to the county lord of Mingjia: "The master used to say that the eldest grandmother was smart. The servants refused to believe it...... Originally. It's still the master who looks at people. ”

"Oh?" Lord Mingjia smiled and asked, "Why do you think that the eldest grandmother is not a smart person?" ”

Feihong thought for a while and said, "Everyone is beautiful, and they all have talents that they are good at. Piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and songs, learn by heart for seven or eight years. Not too lazy. It's all about being able to achieve something. Such a show. must be praised as a 'talented woman', saying that she is both talented and beautiful...... But the servant felt that he was smart. But it's not just some talent. ”

"The grandmother paints well, but the maid didn't see her show anything in dealing with people before, but she looks gentle and kind, and she looks beautiful, so she is easy to be liked." Feihong grew up with Lord Mingjia, and dared to say anything in private.

"After she got married, the eldest lady didn't even treat her as close to her master as ......" Feihong said: "But I didn't expect that it was only a few days, and the eldest lady couldn't wait to hand everything over to her all at once." The maid privately guessed that the eldest lady suddenly wanted to go back to her parents' house, saying that it was the eldest master's instigation, but maybe it was actually the eldest grandmother who contributed behind her back. If it's true, then the grandmother is indeed a smart person. ”

The maid who was born in the palace and lived in the deep palace with Ming Jia just likes to think more about everything.

"You girl." Lord Mingjia was not annoyed, and said softly: "You guessed right, but it's not all right. The eldest lady went far away, although there was a sister-in-law, but it was the uncle who contributed more. She touched her stomach and looked at the blue sky, and said in her heart: If Shen Rouning comes forward directly, I am afraid that the eldest lady will not only not agree to go, but will be even more annoyed.

It is the best policy to turn a few corners and let the eldest master come forward.

"That grandma can make the uncle help her, doesn't it mean that she is smarter?" Feihong rolled her eyes.

Lord Mingjia nodded with a smile: "You know, the uncle is the champion of the three yuan and the first." The one who can make him obedient and willing to do things is not a smart person, how can he do it? ”

The master of his own house does not have to look at the stewardship of this house at all.

Feihong chuckled and said, "When the second master comes back, you will definitely have a time when you are smarter than the eldest grandmother!" In other words, the lord of Mingjia even called her husband. It's just that because the husband and wife are separated, there is no opportunity to manifest it

Lord Mingjia's cheeks turned red, he took a sip of Feihong, looked at the blue sky, and sighed lightly.

"Sister-in-law, I want to go back to the palace to live for a while, you see?" The next day, when the county lord of Mingjia saw Shen Rouning, he said with some hesitation. Her husband was not at home, and her in-laws had left for a long journey, and Lord Mingjia felt a little lonely.

"Mingjia is afraid that I won't take good care of this housekeeper novice?" Shen Rouning asked with a smile.

Seeing her joking tone, Lord Mingjia couldn't help but relax, and said with a smile: "It's a little." I'm afraid that my sister-in-law will be affected by the family, and I can't help anything else, so I have to think about reducing some of the burden on my sister-in-law. ”

"Then I really want to thank you." Shen Rou Ning pretended to arch her hand to Lord Mingjia and asked, "When are you going to let the palace come to pick it up?" ”

In fact, there is a small kitchen in the courtyard of the county lord of Mingjia, and after she became pregnant, all the meals were opened from the small kitchen, and she used her own people, so she didn't have to trouble outsiders at all. Shen Rouning could also understand her thoughts of feeling lonely in the Chen Mansion and wanting to go back to her mother's family, so she didn't object.

Lord Mingjia was still a little afraid that Shen Rouning would have an idea, so he was a little hesitant. At this time, seeing that Shen Rouning understood so much, she felt much calmer in her heart, and said, "I'll ask someone to bring a message to my mother in a while, and see when she can send someone in the next two days." ”

After a pause, Lord Mingjia said: "It's just that the Queen Mother is sick again, and my mother said that she can't guard in the palace...... If she didn't take care of me, then I would have to rely on my sister-in-law to not leave. ”

"Three meals a day." Shen Rouning joked when she heard this, and then couldn't help asking, "The Empress Dowager is not seriously ill, is she?" ”

Ming Jia shook his head, approached Shen Rouning, and said in a low voice: "The main thing is that I was angry with that one." I heard that it was because when he went to Cining Palace again to say hello, he passed by Ci'an Palace and wandered in the small garden next to Ci'an Palace for a long time......"

Ci'an Palace was inhabited by the concubines of the former emperor.

And the concubines of the former emperor, one by one, are almost the same age as flowers, and there is nothing old and decrepit! The emperor wandered in the small garden over there, was he looking at the flowers or something else?

Shen Rouning heard what Mingjia said about this kind of palace secret, and she also cooperated and moved her head closer to the county lord of Mingjia, and then she was surprised again, and said in a low voice: "There is such a thing?" No wonder the Empress Dowager is going to be angry! ”

"yes." Lord Mingjia said in a low voice: "The emperor is greedy for freshness and likes beauties." But now he has only four beauties around him plus the queen, and two of them are still palace maids...... There are flowers on the side of Ci'an Palace, and it is not surprising that he will be fascinated. ”

"Actually, someone has already proposed a draft for the emperor before."

Shen Rouning nodded, and said, "I'm afraid it's not a way to put an end to it." I seem to have heard my cousin say that the Queen Mother and her old man intended to let the flowers of Ci'an Palace release out of the palace...... It's been so long, why hasn't there been any movement? ”

"She is an old man with a kind heart, and she did have this plan before." Lord Mingjia was a little surprised by Shen Rouning's well-informed information, and said in a low voice: "But the old man feels sorry for his son, and he is a little hesitant in his heart, besides, as a woman who is the emperor, she always has to guard her husband for three years." The people are like this, let alone the emperor. ”

"If it is by precedent...... Those people are always to accompany the ancient Buddha of the green lantern. ”

A disaster, the Lin family was imprisoned.

The married daughter of the Lin family also fell unlucky, and under the bow of her head, she was inevitably sent to the Buddhist hall, and it was not uncommon to get a letter of resignation.

Lin Yijia was sad and had some happiness in her heart, because her husband was more considerate of her. It's just that after drinking the soothing soup that her husband personally gave her, when she woke up again, she suddenly returned to the time when she was twelve years old and her mother began to carefully select her husband for her.
