Chapter 473: Separation
Cheng Chi rarely treats people with such enthusiasm, and sincerely stays at someone else's house.
It can be seen that Cheng Ji is pregnant, and he is also happy for Li Jing.
Zhou Shaojin was thoughtful.
Li Jing felt that it was inconvenient to live here, and he was not unable to transfer experienced grandmothers and maids from Luoyang to take care of Cheng Ji, but he finally declined politely.
Zhou Shaojin and Cheng Chi carefully sent Li Jing and Cheng Ji out, but Cheng Ji took Zhou Shaojin's hand with a pout, asking her to come to see her in a few days.
I want to be a mother, and I still have such a lot of play.
Zhou Shaojin couldn't cry or laugh, and promised her that she would definitely go to see her in a few days, so she put down the sedan curtain contentedly.
The guests at home all talked about it, thinking that this was a good thing, and guessed whether Zhou Shaojin would also get pregnant soon.
Mrs. Guo smiled, thinking about the closeness of her son and daughter-in-law these days, and she was looking forward to it.
But Zhou Shaojin's little day came the next day.
Mrs. Guo couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
Even Zhou Shaojin felt a little uncomfortable.
Cheng Chi did it on purpose. Laughing and scratching her nose to comfort her: "You are still young, wait a few more years." ”
Zhou Shaojin blushed.
It's as if she's the only one who wants to have children...... That's why these days I've been obediently letting him do what he wants, letting her moan/moan/moan...... Obviously he likes it very much?
She couldn't help pouting and said, "What if my mother thinks I can't have a child?" ”
"Nonsense!" Cheng Chi scolded softly and twisted her nose again. "It took several years for the sister-in-law to get Sister Xiao, and the second sister-in-law's heir is also very difficult, how can my mother be harsh on you?"
Zhou Shaojin felt a little settled in his heart at this time.
Cheng Chi decided to accompany her to the garden for a walk and relax, so as not to let her think crankily and add to her own blockage.
It's just that as soon as his words came out, Lang Yue walked in and said in a low voice: "Fourth master, Gonggong Shi invited you to the tavern to drink, saying that you will not be seen or dispersed." ”
Cheng Chi couldn't help frowning.
What is this Shi Kuan looking for him?
In his impression. These days, whether it is the East Palace or the mansion of the Four Princes, it is clear and safe. Nothing happened......
Zhou Shaojin thought that something big had happened to Shi Kuan, and said busily: "Fourth master, you go and do your job." I have the people in the family! No matter how bad it is, there is also a mother in charge. It's going to be fine. ”
There were still some relatives in the family who had come to their wedding who did not leave.
Cheng Chi nodded. whispered a few words to her, "If it's not fun, go play leaf cards with your mother" or something like that. I changed my clothes and went out.
Zhou Shaojin went to Tingxiang Courtyard.
Fan Liu thought of Zhou Shaojin's stomachache in the middle of the night last night, and the scene in the house when she went in to serve.
The fourth master is a man after all. Although the bed had been hastily cleaned up, the discerning people who passed by could still see at a glance what they were doing before. He didn't know how to feed day and night, she thought that Zhou Shaojin was injured, and she was relieved to see that she had come to a small day.
She couldn't help but persuade Zhou Shaojin: "The fourth master is not here, you are rarely idle, it is better to sleep first and then go to serve the old lady." ”
Zhou Shaojin's ears were red.
Fan Liu is a person from the past, so he naturally knows about her and Cheng Chi.
She couldn't help but whisper, "I'm okay...... The fourth master is not at home, so I should go and be my mother's companion. lest she be lonely in her old age. ”
In her previous life, when she lived alone in the Grange, no matter how many maids and wives accompanied her, she still felt lonely, so every time her sister came to see her, she was very happy, and she always reluctantly sent her sister out of the Grange before going back.
This is filial piety, Fan Liu didn't dare and couldn't say anything, she had to instruct the maid to help Zhou Shaojin dress up, and told her in a low voice: "Then come back early at noon, have dinner and rest for a while, and you have to prepare to go back." ”
Because Zhou Shaojin's maiden home is in Baoding Mansion, according to the ceremony, if she returns to the door, she has to go to Baoding, which is not as convenient as living in a city, and the New Year is about to be celebrated, so she made an appointment to return to the door nine days after marriage, and came back after staying at her mother's house for five days.
Zhou Shaojin went from Jinling to Baoding, from Baoding to Jinling, and from Yushu Hutong to Yuqian Hu, and also had some experience in traveling, not as panicked as at the beginning, and he also had a charter in his heart about what to do when he went out, and he was not worried that he would make a mistake when the time came. So he smiled: "It's okay." We are only going to live for five days, and Baoding Mansion is not a poor country, in case there is something that we don't have with us, we can buy it when the time comes. ”
Seeing that she didn't understand what she meant, Fan Liu didn't say much, so he ordered the Spring Festival Gala to send Zhou Shaojin to Tingxiang Courtyard.
Zhou Shaojin remembered the marriage of the Spring Festival Gala.
I have become a parent, at most two years, and the Spring Festival Gala should also be married.
It's a pity that Cheng Chi doesn't have a suitable one around him, and it seems that this matter has to be entrusted to Biyu.
When she arrived at Mrs. Guo's door, she happened to meet Jasper.
Before Mrs. Guo moved in, there were all new maids and wives who had entered the mansion, and Jasper was in charge of the inner house, which was well deserved. But after Mrs. Guo moved in, Mama Lu and Mama Shi were no older than her, and the affairs of the inner house were naturally handed over to Mama Lu, and she was on the side, and the power was not as great as before, but there were more things.
Fortunately, Biyu is a competitive person, knowing that Cheng Chi values her, and the housekeepers of Mama Lu and others are not comparable to her in terms of means and strategies, but she can also calm down and learn things with her, and she is all an apprentice.
Zhou Shaojin asked her with a smile, "What are you doing here?" ”
At this time, she should be in the kitchen watching the master on the stove prepare lunch.
Biyu smiled and showed her the menu in her hand, and said, "The old lady said that she would invite the old lady of Yuan Ge to dinner in a few days, so I asked her to draw up a menu for the old man, and I took the menu to her old man." As he spoke, he lowered his voice and said, "The old lady called the second lady to come and speak." ”
The second wife is Cheng Wei's wife Qiu.
Zhou Shaojin smiled and bowed to her to express her gratitude.
Biyu smiled, curtsied, and left Tingxiang Courtyard.
Mama Lu came out to give Zhou Shaojin a curtain, but she didn't welcome her in, but found an excuse to take her to the tea room.
Zhou Shaojin didn't know it, drinking tea and eating snacks in the tea room.
In the main room, Mrs. Guo was saying to Qiu: "...... I know, you all think I'm biased and like Shiro. But you don't know what kind of crime Shiro has suffered. That's all I say to you. In the past, when the second room was in charge of the house, they had the final say on how much silver there was, and the long house didn't know how much money there was in the family. Changfang can take out 1.2 million taels of silver to divide the family with the second room, and all that silver is earned by Shiro over the years, and your eldest brother and sister-in-law said they wanted it, and he took it out. The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat. If I don't say some things, it will only make you flesh and blood, and your brothers will be resentful.
"Just like this matter, I can only discuss it with my sons, but I still brought you here to talk about it, that's because you are my daughter-in-law, just like my daughter, I don't want there to be a gap between your husband and wife!"
"Mother!" Qiu didn't know Old Madam Guo's intentions, so he stood up uneasily and said, "You know, I'm a fool. I will listen to what you say, and I will do whatever the minister says. What do you want? Just command. ”
Mrs. Guo said: "I want to divide this family while I'm not confused!" ”
Qiu's face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly shouted "Mother" and said, "This, how can this be?" We have just separated from the second room, and it is when the family is twisted into a rope, how can we separate the family? She said, her heart moved, did Xianggong disagree, mother-in-law is asking her to convince Xianggong? She couldn't help but say, "Mother, do you know the princess?" What did he say? I listen to him. ”
Mrs. Guo smiled: "Don't worry! I haven't told Jiro about this yet. Just wanted to hear what you mean first. On the other side of Xinglin Hutong is the old house, and Da Lang is the eldest son, so he naturally has to leave it to them. Then Jiashan married me and gave me 20,000 taels of silver, and then gave them 50,000 taels of silver. On the side of Chaoyangmen, when Shiro got married, I told my in-laws that I wanted to leave it to him. His house is the largest, and I will leave nothing for him. One of them has the eldest and the other has the young, and speaking of which, you suffer the most. But it's the turn to break up, but you can't continue to suffer. I thought about it, you will discuss looking at the house, and I will give you 100,000 taels of silver, no matter how much silver it is. The cost of getting my brother married is also paid by me, the same as Jiashan, 20,000 taels of silver. The antiques, calligraphy and paintings, gold and silver jewelry in my hands will not be divided when I am alive, and after I die, the three of you will divide them equally. I have divided all my money, and all the proceeds of the sacrificial field shall go to me, which shall be my pocket money. When I die, it will belong to your uncle's family. What do you think? ”
A house in the capital, 100,000 taels of silver, and the house is also chosen by them at will, and when the brother is married, he will also give another 20,000 taels of silver to prepare for the wedding...... Even though Qiu is a person who is content with the status quo and likes stability, he can't help but be dizzy and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Mrs. Guo didn't want her to promise herself at this time, and said, "I also know that you have always respected Erlang. If you can't make up your mind, then go back and discuss with Erlang, and if you think it's inappropriate, you can talk to me directly. I just want this home to be comfortable and comfortable, and not to make any trouble. ”
Qiu's face was swollen and red.
She knew that Old Madam Guo was referring to the Yuan family.
But she, a brother-in-law, knew what her sister-in-law thought, but she didn't dare to persuade her, and she didn't fulfill her duty as a daughter-in-law, so she couldn't escape the blame!
She muttered a promise, and seeing that Mrs. Guo was tired, she hurriedly got up to say goodbye and went to find Cheng Wei.
When Zhou Shaojin came in, Mrs. Guo didn't hide it from her, and told Zhou Shaojin about her plan.
Zhou Shaojin's experience makes her have lower requirements for material life, the big house is also to live in, and the hut is not too narrow, not to mention that now she has Cheng Chi by her side, she really has nothing else to ask for.
"I don't understand these things." She said, "It's up to the fourth master to decide!" I listen to you and the fourth master. ”
