Chapter 11: Thanksgiving
Mrs. Bai paused, and continued: "There is also a Mama Liu, who is in charge of punishment, if there are some things that are inconvenient for you to come forward, just leave it to her, she has many means, don't look at people cold, as long as you are really good to her, she will repay you, these three people are carefully selected by grandmothers to help you, you can use them with confidence, and treat them well, women of their age, don't want anything else, just want to live a more stable old age." Madame Bai patted Zhou Xiya's hand.
Zhou Xiya nodded, it was hard for her grandmother to think so carefully for her, with these three grandmothers by her side, she was like a tiger with wings.
"I also prepared two maids for you, one is good at serving people, she has a lot of experience in matching clothes and jewelry, she is a clever girl, and her cooking skills are very good, you will be much safer in eating and drinking with her, and the other is good at martial arts, and she can protect you by your side." Madame White continued.
"Grandma, thank you" Zhou Xiya has a thousand words to be grateful, but she can't say it, she can only say thank you, grandma is really good to her.
"You are my granddaughter, grandmother doesn't care who you hurt, if I don't take care of you, how can I explain to your mother, this is a person from the inner courtyard, I found you a housekeeper in the outer courtyard, you can explain anything you don't understand in the house, and the other is to help you deal with things outside the house, they are all familiar with the situation in the capital, and you can use it easily."
Originally, she could directly help her granddaughter regain the stewardship of the Zhou family, and she didn't dare to resist if she forgave the concubine, but she couldn't, so let Ya'er take the concubine to practice, Ya'er will always marry someone in the future, and the children of other families like them naturally want to marry the right family, and there are a lot of open and secret battles inside, if she blocks everything for Ya'er, it is not hurting Ya'er, it is harming her.
Mrs. Bai thought of her granddaughter in all aspects, but she was afraid that she would be wronged a little, and knew that the third daughter-in-law gave Ya'er a part of the people who could manage the shop, so she stopped giving it.
The third daughter-in-law is really good to Ya'er, and she treats Ya'er Rong as if she was born, so over the years, the third daughter-in-law can't be reborn, and she hasn't stuffed people into her son's room, so let the two of them have a good time, there are so many children in the family, it doesn't matter if they don't give birth, and someone will send them to the end in the future.
"Grandma, it's good to have you" Zhou Xiya lay on Mrs. Bai's knees, hiding the tears in her eyes, how much she missed in her previous life, and how much she owed these relatives, she must make up for it in this life in order to repay her relatives' love for her.
Mrs. Bai gently stroked Zhou Xiya's head, with a smile in her eyes, as long as she was still there, she would be able to protect the child for a ride.
It's winter, it's dark early, and seeing that the time is almost up, Zhou Jianxiong and his party said goodbye.
Outside the gate of the Bai family, Zhou Jianxiong looked at his daughter, thinking that his daughter would stay at her father-in-law's house to accompany her mother-in-law, but looking at her daughter's meaning, she would not stay.
"I won't stay Ya'er today, the coming day is long, you just went home, it's better to get familiar with the family first, I miss Ya'er, call the child at any time, it's all in the capital, it's not far away." Madame Bai saw her son-in-law's doubts and explained.
The granddaughter wants to take care of the house, and her grandmother naturally wants to support her with all her might, anyway, the children are back, when will she not be able to see it, if she really misses the child, it is a big deal to go to Zhou's house to live for a few days, who would dare to drive her away.
Bai frowned, he didn't expect his mother to leave Zhou Xiya's girl, what kind of calculation did they make? She didn't believe that her mother didn't point out Zhou Xiya's girl, especially when she saw the few people standing next to Zhou Xiya, Bai's brows furrowed even deeper, mother is helping Zhou Xiya?
Bai's heart is bottomless, it seems that Zhou Xiya is the steward of the Zhou family, if Zhou Xiya stays in the Bai family, she will have a chance to go back and prepare, the Zhou family has been supported by her alone all these years, why did she let Zhou Xiya's girl go with all the money she worked so hard to save, it was what she left for her daughter.
"Mother..."Zhou Xiwan naturally saw the person standing behind Zhou Xiya, her heart was full of resentment, for so many years, she had wantonly curried, in addition to giving her some small bits and pieces such as jewelry, her grandmother had really planned for her.
"It's okay, Zhou Xiya just has a right-hand man, and my mother can handle it, I won't give in easily." Bai Shi hid the fierceness in his eyes, and got into the carriage with Zhou Xiwan's support.
Zhou Xiwan gained a lot this time, in addition to a few people and some things given by her grandmother, the two uncles and aunts also gave very rich meeting gifts.
The Zhou family and his entourage returned to the house, Zhou Jianxiong had not returned to the capital for many years, so he naturally wanted to get together with some old friends, and the invited dinners continued.
And Zhou Guangxun's brothers also have their own places to play, and finally came back from the bitter cold border, so they naturally wanted to greet some fox friends and dogs to have a friendly and good time, and they were going to pull Zhou Xiya, but Zhou Xiya was busy taking over the affairs of the family, so she directly refused, she was very familiar with the capital, and she should have seen it in her previous life, nothing new.
After returning home, Zhou Xiwan changed into light clothes, the charcoal fire of the Zhou family is very sufficient, the house is not cold at all, the founding emperor is about to win the world, plus he has Hu blood, so Hufu is also very popular in China, and some aristocratic ladies from Jiangmen are even wearing Hufu to ride horses.
Zhou Xiya grew up in the border pass since she was a child, and Hufu is conducive to horseback riding, so it is the clothes she often wears.
"Miss, I still see that you are pleasing to the eye in such clothes, just like when we were at the border, looking at the spirits, the young ladies in the capital are wearing beautiful clothes, but the slaves and maids feel that they are too cumbersome." Jinxiu packed up Zhou Xiya's changed clothes.
"That's because you grew up at the border, just get used to it, you have to adapt, not only me, but you also have to wear clothes that match your identity, and you can wear Hufu occasionally, after all, it's not orthodox." Zhou Xiya took off the hair ornament on her head and replaced it with a simple pearl hairpin.
Jinxiu nodded, she had been taught by her uncle, otherwise her uncle would not have let her follow Miss, "Miss, Grandma Zhou, they are all waiting outside." "Splendid reminder.
The old lady gave several servants, even the maids, compared with the maids trained by the old lady, she couldn't help but feel a little unconfident, the maids took out to look more like young ladies than the ladies at the border, gentle and gentle, and the temperament on her body was different.
"Go out, Jinxiu, learn from Mama Zhou and them in the future, it's always useful to learn more things, you grow up with me, your status in my heart is different from theirs, don't have any burden." Zhou Xiya glanced at Jinxiu.
Her aunt taught her that she must pay attention to the thoughts of the people around her, even if you are a loyal person, you must also pay attention to their feelings, otherwise it is likely to give the enemy a chance, sometimes the closer the person, the greater the possibility of rebellion, and the person has a heart.
Jinxiu nodded movingly, "Miss, I will do better, and I will not disappoint Miss." ”
Although Miss is three years younger than her, many times she feels that Miss is like an older sister.
