Chapter 120: No Blessing
Shen Youfu waited and waited at home, and finally waited for the day when she returned to the door on the third day.
With her, of course, the second master and the second lady are looking forward to it.
Early this morning, Shen Youfu was pulled up by Mama Xu to make up, and she was dressed up beautifully, but she was still not satisfied: "The sixth aunt is coming today, our master has to dress up beautifully...... I don't know when our master will get married, and the slave will comb hundreds of beautiful women's heads! β
The sixth aunt is none other than Jin Feibai......
Shen Youfu also knew that she was angry and said this, so she ignored her with a "hum". Mama knew that she was speechless, smiled and slapped her mouth, hurriedly served Shen Youfu for breakfast, and asked Lu'er to accompany Shen Youfu to the warm pavilion.
The Shen family married two daughters at once, and this huge mansion seemed even more empty. Only when everyone is crowded together in the warm pavilion does they not have to face this feeling of loneliness.
In the warm pavilion, the second master and the second lady have already arrived. Shen Youfu looked around, but didn't see Aunt Rong's shadow.
"It's rare for her daughter to come back, doesn't she come to take a look?" The second master just opened his mouth to ask the second lady.
Shen Youfu didn't interrupt her father's questioning, walked in quietly, and found a seat in front of her mother.
I only heard the second lady smile gently.
"That's what I said, so I sent someone to invite it early in the morning." The second lady explained: "It's not that Rong'er is ruthless, how can there be a mother in this world who doesn't miss her children?" But sir, you also know that Rong'er is a rule-abiding person, and if she doesn't want to go beyond the rules, it's always hard for me to be forced to come. β
β¦β¦ Shen Youfu was too lazy to speak.
If Aunt Rong comes, what can she do in front of the old lady?
It's better not to come, if Shen Lian wants to see her when she comes back, she will go to her house to see her-anyway, the second lady will definitely not allow it...... When the time comes. Mother and daughter behind closed doors, what can't they say?
If it weren't for waiting to watch a good show today, Shen Youfu would have wanted to invite Aunt Rong now!
To hell with their little thoughts!
Shen Youfu was unhappy, but the report from the next person outside made her smile immediately.
"Fifth Miss and Fifth Aunt have arrived!"
Hearing that the eldest daughter was back, the second master hurriedly got up, and before he finished speaking, the second lady's tears flowed out as soon as he "brushed".
The subordinates in the warm pavilion were all panicked, and hurriedly dipped the veils with hot water. Wiping the tears of the second lady.
But the second lady wiped it with a handkerchief. But they can't wipe it dry. Tears fell like beads of broken threads......
Shen Youfu was also sad.
The daughter is the most important thing in the heart of the mother, let alone marrying a poor family like the Cao family. Even if she marries the best man in the world, this mother will definitely have such and such worries.
Shen Youfu stepped forward and gently patted the second lady's shoulder, snorted and whispered, "Mother, don't cry, if you also make my sister cry." The elder brother of the Cao family is going to be frightened. β
This sentence is more effective than anything else.
The second lady's tears did not stop. But people are like a boy who rises up and is immediately full of spirit! - Yes! Crying like this, isn't it just complaining that her daughter is not marrying well?
β¦β¦ Can't embarrass your son-in-law! ββOtherwise, what if you go back and be embarrassed for Youlan?
Shen Youfu saw that the second lady was no longer crying, and beckoned the second lady's maid. went to marry some makeup powder for the second lady to make up.
Only then did I put on the powder, and I heard a cry outside the door from far and near!
Shen Youlan almost cried all the way to the door! The second lady and Shen Youfu's worries were superfluous, because Cao Wenshan was not the slightest dissatisfied. Instead, behind Shen Youlan, he gently hugged her. Let her cry a handful of snot and tears, but she still looks very doting on her.
As soon as she saw Cao Wenshan's eyes, Shen Youfu was much more relieved.
In ancient times, there were many straight men with cancer, but there were very few men who were impatient to listen to women crying. Especially at this time, when she returned to the door, her daughter ran to her parents' house and cried like this, didn't she feel that she was not happy at her husband's house?
Although Cao Wenshan dotes on Shen Youlan, he still has this concern.
It's just that he doesn't dislike it, but he is really afraid that his father-in-law and mother-in-law will misunderstand......
Seeing that Shen Youlan only knew how to cry and not speak, he had to free up one hand to salute, and then explained to the second master and the second lady: "When you are at home, what are you doing...... I'm so happy! This time, I just miss you two old. β
As soon as Cao Wenshan said this, the second lady couldn't help it again. got up and hugged Shen Youlan, and the mother and daughter ran to the side and cried completely regardless of it.
The second master also wanted to hug the mother and daughter and cry, but unfortunately he was glared back by Shen Youfu again.
He touched the tip of his nose, hurriedly invited Cao Wenshan to sit down, and ordered tea and pastries to be entertained.
This Weng and his son-in-law were originally taught by the same teacher, so they also have a lot to talk about. From the politeness at the beginning, to how to live after marriage, and then later, completely put aside these mundane things, and actually talked about those poetry classics.
Shen Youfu looked at the joy in the warm pavilion, and felt warm in her heart for a while.
However, I'm afraid it won't be long before Shen Youfu and the annoying Jin Feibai will come back......
Shen Youfu was thinking about this when a hesitant voice came from outside.
"Miss Six is back......"
The people in the warm pavilion involuntarily stopped the topic and looked out in unison. Cao Wenshan even put away the happy expression when he was chatting and became a little indifferent.
The curtain was lifted, and I saw Shen Lian walking in.
Today, Shen Lian wore a jacket with red peony embroidered beads, and below it was a long red dress. The jacket and skirt were trimmed with warm and precious lamb's wool. She held a delicate woman's bun with a complete set of jade heads made of the same material. The earrings with two jade beads on the earlobes are even more green and beautiful.
This outfit is worth a lot of money. But for some reason, as soon as she came in, it was as if she was out of place with the whole family - the warm pavilion suddenly became cold.
Shen Lian was not timid, she leaned her neck, threw a stack of gifts in her hand to her subordinates, knelt down in the middle of the warm pavilion, and kowtowed to the old lady happily and neatly.
When kowtowing, Shen Youfu was rightfully glanced at Shen Lian's jade bracelet again......
The second master obviously also felt that there was something raw - the one who got married and came back. Why are they like two people?
However, as a father, he still asked the question he wanted to ask the most - "What about Feibai?" Why didn't I come back with you? β
Only then did Shen Youfu notice that the annoying Jin Feibai didn't come?
β¦β¦ Originally, the people in the room were attracted by Shen Lian's grand dress, and they collectively ignored the important figure of Jin Feibai......
Shen Lian's eyes swept around the room lightly. When she saw that Shen Youlan was still wearing the clothes she had taken away from the Shen family, her eyes obviously showed a trace of contempt: "My husband is busy with the Spring Festival, and he is working day and night in the mansion. The daughter couldn't bear to distract him. And he came back alone...... Father and mother. You won't blame your daughter, will you? β
β¦β¦ Won't blame you?
Second Master Shen was choked by Shen Lian's rhetorical question, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Of course, he wouldn't blame his daughter. If you want to blame, you should blame Jin Feibai for being ignorant...... Isn't it?
Speaking of this return to Ning, it is an important etiquette. It's no exaggeration. A marriage can only be considered a complete ceremony after returning to the door!
The in-laws recognized the daughter, and the father-in-law and mother-in-law also recognized the son. How can you say that you don't come because you're busy? Do you want to have a spring in your family? Don't the Cao family?
But then again. Even if the second master is angry, it will help Shen Lian to fight unevenly.
can look at Shen Lian's appearance. It drove him to speechless......
The second lady glanced at the second master with disgust. Marrying a husband and helping her husband speak is common sense, and there is nothing to make a fuss about. She beckoned to Shen and asked Shen Lian and Shen Youlan to sit next to her left and right. He gently taught: "You two have left the Shen family. In the future, she will no longer be the daughter of the boudoir, and everything should be based on her husband's family......"
The second lady had a motherly heart, but Shen Lian listened very impatiently.
She's back today. I'm not here to listen to this nonsense.
First, she wanted to settle the matter of the Night Pearl - take it out in front of Shen Youfu. Shen Youfu didn't dare to admit that this was a gift from the He family...... So in the future, this thing will completely belong to himself and the Jin family.
Second, she also wants to meet Aunt Rong! Anyway, Aunt Rong is not very favored by her father, and she has nothing to do when she is idle for a day, so it is better to help her find out who put the hundred sons and thousands of grandchildren into the dowry, causing her to kneel all day on the second day of her wedding, and almost missed the round room at night!
"Why doesn't the fifth sister bring jewelry? When the tea is served, shouldn't the husband's family return the gift? Shen Lian had already been impatient with listening, so she forcibly interrupted the second lady's words and started talking to Shen Youlan.
Shen Youlan didn't have a good impression of her at all, but she heard the second lady say: "It's me who is confused, and the two of you have more to talk about now!" β
After the second lady finished speaking, she looked innocent and waited for Shen Youlan to answer......
Shen Youlan has always been straightforward - although the Cao family is hard, Cao Wenshan treats her well, so she doesn't feel that there is anything to avoid embarrassment: "My mother and sister don't like to dress up at home, and things up and down are complicated, and there are many inconveniences......"
Shen Youlan explained to the second lady with a smile, she smiled sincerely, and the second lady could also detect it.
Although I still regret that my daughter is not easy, I am satisfied when I see her happy.
But Shen Lian didn't plan to stop there.
"How complicated are the things?" Shen Lian frowned, "No matter how many things there are, aren't there still maids and wives?" No matter how bad the husband is, the little guys in front of him can also be called, is it difficult, and I still have to do it myself? β
She was right.
The affairs of the Cao family were done by Cao Wenshan and one of his scholars from beginning to end. There are no maidservants, let alone little maids.
Cao Wenshan sat on the spot, but he had never seen such a rude and talkative person - this really matched the son of Na Jin.
Everyone's faces were not good-looking, but Shen Lian turned the bracelet on his wrist with an ignorant look.
Seeing that the atmosphere was going to be cold, Shen Youfu leaned on the pillow and blinked her bright eyes: "Do everything with the fifth sister herself?" Brother Cao reads and learns words every day, but is it all the fifth sister's red sleeves? β
Cao Wenshan and Shen Youlan were a little annoyed by Shen Lian's rudeness, but when they heard this, no one was angry.
Shen Youfu saw that she was right, so she showed an interesting expression, and her eyes turned back and forth between the fifth sister and Cao Wenshan, and immediately blushed at the sight of the two.
Their expressions made Shen Youfu very satisfied,
She shook her head and looked at Shen Lian: "It's a pity that there are too many people around the sixth brother-in-law who can be called, and the sixth sister is afraid that she won't have this blessing!" (To be continued) R655
