After lunch in Yishun Hall, someone in the second room came to invite Chu Weicong, saying that Chu Weijing was going out to meet friends and wanted to invite his younger brother to accompany him.

Mrs. Zhang knew Chu Weijing's temperament, although she was bolder, she was straightforward and unscrupulous, and she would not spoil Chu Weicong, so she let her go.

As soon as Chu Weicong left, only Chu Weilin was left, and with a wave of her hand, Mrs. Zhang also let her go back.

When she arrived at Qinghui Garden, Bao Jin was standing in the courtyard talking to her mother-in-law, and when she saw Chu Weilin coming back, she hurriedly greeted her.

The woman also turned around and saluted Chu Weilin.

It's Zheng's mother in the second room.

Zheng's mother's man is a family child, she did things in the second room when Sun was still alive, but she was a responsible person, but she had a blush with Sun's henchman mother and was ostracized. When the Sun family was gone, the Ruan family entered the door, and Zheng's mother's life was a little more comfortable, not decent, but not bad.

"Why is Mama Zheng here? What a rarity. Chu Weilin said with a smile.

Mother Zheng hurriedly came over to help the other side, and said with a smile: "The slave is here to see the girl." ”

Chu Weilin nodded and invited Zheng's mother into the house.

She still remembers the purpose of Zheng's mother.

Zheng's mother pushed a few times before sitting down, only touching the corner of the pestle, a little restrained: "I heard that the slave maid wants to add someone here?" ”

"What does grandmother mean," Chu Weilin took a sip of tea, "Mom came to ask specially, is there a good candidate?" ”

"The girl smiled, it's the niece of the slave, she is twelve years old, and she has learned some rules, I don't know if I can come to the girl to get an errand?" Seeing Chu Weilin's eyebrows raised slightly, Zheng's mother said again, "Although it is said that it is ...... to be virtuous and avoid relatives."

"Mom, this is polite," Chu Weilin interrupted Zheng's mother's words, "If you want to avoid relatives, how can you choose a family and have children!" As long as you are diligent and knowable. ”

"Don't worry, girl, that girl is a sensible person, but her appearance is a little worse, not as good as the girls in Qinghui Garden, that girl is fat."

"If you don't care, bring me to see it first."

Hearing this, Mother Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, smiled even more, and said again and again: "Then the slave is going to bring it?" ”

got the promise, Zheng's mother hurriedly went.

Chu Weilin listened to the footsteps and walked away, and the expression on her face slowly faded.

In her previous life, Zheng's mother also came to recommend her niece.

At that time, Chu Weilin didn't dare to make up her mind, so she pushed the matter to the He family again, and the He family personally brought the girl over, named it Yanjun, and decided on this matter, and later Zheng's mother said a lot of good things about the He family.

Since she has to accept it, this time it is better for her to nod herself, so as not to let the He family do a favor.

Zheng's mother soon brought someone over, as if she was afraid that someone would rob her of her seat.

Chu Weilin got up and went to the courtyard and looked carefully.

It's the same as in my impression, I'm a little too fat, and the clothes on my body are a little tight.

Mother Zheng saw Chu Weilin looking at it, and said with a smile: "Girl, this girl is a little fat, and her appearance is a little worse, but she is still smart." ”

Chu Weilin covered her lips and smiled: "I only do a second-class job in the yard, I look better and almost what's tight, the key is to be obedient." ”

"This girl just rest assured, she will definitely not be sloppy." Zheng's mother patted her chest and slapped the bag ticket.

Chu Weilin hooked the corners of her lips.

She used it once, how could she not know that this girl has no scheming, and she is also very obedient, listening to Baolian's words, as for diligence, it is not at all touchable.

However, since you plan to accept it, it's better to sell it again than to be picky.

"Mom, it is said that the eighteenth change of the female university, it may be different in a few years, and it is not impossible to raise it again when the time comes," Chu Weilin said to the girl again, "In the future, it will be called Yanjun." ”

Zheng's mother was overjoyed, and patted her niece the back: "Don't hurry up and kowtow to the girl." ”

Yan Junhan laughed twice, knelt down and kowtowed.

The little maids' ** has always been done by Baolian, and when Chu Weilin returned to the house, Zheng's mother told Yanjun thousands of instructions, and talked to Baolian for a while, and then left happily.

Halfway through midwinter, the maids and ladies in the house were already muttering about what they were doing in the wax moon.

Newly cut winter coats arrived, and the sisters wore two small jackets, two skirts, and a rabbit fur cloak.

Chu Weilin was urged by Lu's mother to try them one by one, and it was good to compare the size everywhere, and then, Lu's mother went to serve Chu Weicong to try on clothes, and when she came back, she was happy and sad, Chu Weicong became more and more handsome year by year, but her wife could never see her again.

Lu's mother sighed for half an hour, and was startled by the news coming in from outside, and stopped speaking with a calm face.

Seeing this, Chu Weilin sent Baolian and Baojin away, pulled Lu's mother to the inner room, and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?" ”

Mother Lu paced back and forth for a few steps, and made up her mind to whisper to Chu Weilin: "It's the matter that the girl asked the slave to inquire about last time." ”

Chu Weilin was stunned for a moment, and when she remembered what she wanted to inquire, she couldn't help but feel her heart beat faster, and asked, "Is there really a problem?" ”

"Yes." Mother Lu nodded.

Although it was expected, it was really solid, and my heart was also up and down.

Chu Weilin took a few deep breaths and tried to calm herself down: "Mom, tell me in detail. ”

The master and servant sat down together, afraid that the wall would have ears, and the voice was very low.

After Chu Weilin mentioned it that night, Lu's mother was naturally interested, and she went to the second room for a walk.

In the second room, since the Ruan family entered the door, many people have been changed one after another, except for a mother-in-law and two maids who were taken to the front yard by Chu Weijing, none of Sun's former henchmen remained, and the rest were marginal people like Zheng's mother, and neither side could be trusted.

The dowries brought in by the Ruan clan must be strict-mouthed, and there is no need to expect to find out the news from their mouths, in case they become suspicious, it will be counterproductive.

The others couldn't get close to Ruan's body, and they couldn't say why they came.

Mother Lu felt the situation and did not test anyone, but changed the direction to find the old people who had been released from the house.

It's not easy to find.

I don't know where I went, whether I was still in Beijing or not, Lu's mother was an inner house woman, and she couldn't find anything after a lot of hard work. It was also destined by God that she found a midwife.

The mother-in-law's family name is Zhang, her mother's family name is Li, and her concubine Zhang Chen is the one who delivered the baby for the Ruan family.

The Zhang family split up the year before last, and Zhang Chen followed her man out of the capital, and the two of them hadn't seen each other since the fight, but this Zhang Li vaguely remembered some old things.

There are a lot of midwives in the capital, some of them do business for the common people, and some only enter the official eunuchs' homes, the two of them are neither high nor low, and they can occasionally enter the big mansion to serve once, but for the sake of livelihood, they will not push the small door.

That year, the snow fell early in the capital, and by the end of November, it had already accumulated a thick layer.

Because the Ruan family is less than a month, the Chu family has not prepared a midwife, and when they see the red, they will look around, where can they find the best ones? Zhang Chen was lucky, he happened to be at home in those days, and was hurriedly recruited into the house.
