Chapter 423: Departure (Dragon Boat Festival Update)

Hide it from your mother-in-law!

I'm afraid that there are few things in this family that can be hidden from my mother-in-law.

Yuan hurt his brain, and suddenly heard that Mrs. Guo called her over, and he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, so he didn't care who called her. When she knew that Mrs. Guo had decided to go to the capital to live in the near future, and Cheng Jiashan had decided not to return to Jinling after the wedding, she was overjoyed, and finally suppressed her feelings and did not laugh on the spot.

When the mother-in-law went to the capital, she could not only avoid the affairs of Jinling, but also make an unbearable appearance, and say that the mother-in-law went to the capital to avoid the aggressiveness of the second room.

It's really a sleepy pillow.

The Yuan family naturally had no objections, not only helped Mrs. Guo clean up, but also took the initiative to ask Mrs. Guo to help go to the capital to supervise the Xinglin Hutong side to prepare for Cheng Xu's wedding.

Old Madam Guo smiled faintly and said, "I heard that Shiro's house on the other side of Chaoyang Gate has been repaired, and I plan to live there." When Jiashan gets married, so as not to embarrass the children. ”

Yuan was shrewd and shrewd, but at this time he was confused. said lightly, "Look at what you said", and there was no follow-up, but said: "I have also heard about the fourth uncle's house on the other side of Chaoyangmen, and I bought the houses of several adults in the neighborhood, which is one of the best in the entire capital." Even my sixth cousin heard about it. The fourth uncle has always been filial, and it is good to go and live in the past for a few days to make the fourth uncle happy. ”

The sixth cousin she is talking about is Yuan Weichang, the first assistant of the cabinet.

Mrs. Guo smiled: "That's exactly the truth. ”

But as soon as she sent Yuan away, her expression turned cold, and she snorted to Mama Shi: "You see, it's not the same that crawled out of my stomach." I said that I would go to Shiro's for a few days, and she would follow my words and push me to Shiro's place, for fear that my widowed old woman would be unlucky when her daughter-in-law entered the door. ”

Mama Shi naturally could only persuade: "What you said is a bit excessive." Madame also wants to make you happy. She won't be able to return to the capital for a while, Uncle Xu's marriage has already been set, and the second wife's body is not good, so she can't help much. You went, with your help to watch, Madame is like a tiger with wings, how can you not breathe a sigh of relief? Besides, the fourth master and you get together less and leave more, if you go to live there, the fourth master will definitely be very happy. What's more, the fourth master has not yet married, you went, just urging the fourth master to get married quickly, and you can also hurry up and hug a few more grandchildren. ”

When it came to hugging her grandson, Mrs. Guo became happy and said with a smile: "The daughter-in-law is naturally no better than the son - the son is brought up by me with one hand and one foot, but the daughter-in-law is brought up by the mother of the family with one hand and one foot, and the kittens and puppies still know who feeds them, let alone people?" I didn't expect her to treat me well, but I just thought that she was making trouble for Jiashan to divide the sect, and she actually coaxed Shiro to help them with the money, which made me feel uncomfortable, and I felt uncomfortable when I looked at her. As he spoke, he sighed and said, "Or because she is not the daughter-in-law I chose, I don't say it in my mouth, but I am actually dissatisfied in my heart, so I find fault with her everywhere, and I am not looking for her." It's just that I'm old and don't want to wronged myself. It's okay if I don't have a fate with her. ”

Mama Shi laughed on the side.

Mrs. Guo faintly felt that she would have a rare opportunity to return to Jinling in the future when she went to the capital this time, so she instructed Mama Shi: "The matter of Hanbi Mountain House will be entrusted to you." If we divide the sect with the second room, eight or nine tenths of the house here will be given to the second room. I'll take it to the capital this time, and I'll hand over the housewares, calligraphy and paintings, antiques, porcelain, tin dishes, etc. to you and Daman. ”

Da Man is the son of Mama Shi.

Mama Shi thought of the old lady's five wings, and felt a heavy responsibility, and nodded solemnly.

Mrs. Guo explained everything, and went to the Gu family, the Guo family and other good people to resign, chose a good day, took the head of Qin, and went to the capital by boat.

Cheng Chi was taken aback when he got the letter, and hurriedly said, "Why did her old man suddenly think of coming to the capital?" ”

said that it was to participate in Cheng Xu's marriage, but he didn't believe a word.

Qin Ziji smiled: "I don't know either. My uncle and grandfather brought a letter, saying that I should say goodbye to you and clean up the old lady's place as soon as possible. ”

Cheng Chi handed over the matter to Qin Ziji.

Li's eldest brother came over, there was no male on the other side of Yuqian Hutong, he went over a few times intermittently to accompany him, Master Li is a very shrewd businessman, and he is also extraordinary, he speaks and acts boldly in front of him but is not cautious, generous and not humble, and it can be seen that he is a person who can deal with him. For the sake of Zhou Shaojin's face, he made an appointment with Liu Yong to come out, and was ready to introduce him to Liu Yong, he didn't dare to say anything else, at least it was no problem to be an imperial businessman or something.

He confessed a few words and went to a restaurant that made private dishes at Dongzhimen.

Zhou Shaojin has been dreaming like a dream these days.

Cheng Chi wrote a letter to her every day, sometimes saying that he had eaten and drunk something, but he had not written anything, just a hand-painted bookmark or a half-blooming flower in the letter...... At this time, her heart was beating, and she solemnly stored the letter and the bookmark in a box of rosewood, and as for the half-bloomed flowers, she made dried flowers, and put them all in the jewelry box, and took them out to see when she was fine.

The Spring Festival Gala walked in with a tea tray, and saw Zhou Shaojin fiddling with those dried flowers again, and couldn't help but smile: "Second Miss, we have planted a bunch of hosta flowers in our backyard, if you like it, I will pick some for you later, why do you need to make dried flowers?" ”

She didn't know that Mama Shang had sent a letter to Zhou Shaojin in private.

Zhou Shaojin didn't explain, but locked the box with a smile and put it in the bezel at the head of the bed together with the box containing the title deed documents.

The Spring Festival Gala said: "Mrs. asked me to tell you that the uncle of the Li family will not come back for dinner in the evening, and ask if you want to go to Shuangyu Hutong with her to see the aunt and grandmother." ”

The uncle of the Li family made a special trip to celebrate the 100th anniversary gift for Zhou Chujin's child. He also prepared a lot of gifts for the official brother, that is, Zhou Shaojin, and also got him a set of pen, ink, paper, inkstone, a pair of red gold plum blossom heads, a pair of bracelets of mutton fat jade, a headband inlaid with 100 treasures, a headband inlaid with Baise Nanzhu, and a number of precious materials such as gold weaving and makeup flowers.

Fan Liu calculated, these things are worth at least two hundred taels of silver.

Not only her, but also the servants up and down Yuqian Hutong have been beaten by him.

Fan Liu said: "He is also looking at his wife's face." Comparing the heart to the heart, the second lady should also treat his wife better. ”

Zhou Shaojin felt that Fan Liu's words were very reasonable, she hadn't seen her sister for a few days, she dressed up and went to Elm Hutong with Li.

Because the official's 100-day ceremony was approaching, the relatives of the Liao family came over intermittently to follow the ceremony.

When Zhou Shaojin and Li went over, they happened to meet Fang Xuan and her mother.

Fang's mother was a very kind woman, and Fang Xuan's expression was a little pampered in comparison.

She just politely greeted Zhou Shaojin, followed behind Fang's mother, and listened to Fang's mother and Mrs. Liao talking about the past. When Fang's mother looked like Zhou Shaojin, she not only praised her for her beauty, but also praised her for being gentle and demure, so that Fang Xuan was more close to her.

Fang Xuan glanced at Zhou Shaojin with a smile and responded perfunctorily.

Zhou Shaojin will not be with her relatives who despise her before she is reborn, let alone after she is reborn?

She smiled and went to visit Zhou Chujin in the inner room with the Li family.

Seeing this, Fang's mother had to teach Fang Xuan a few words: "Everyone is in-law, how can you be unreasonable?" Even if you don't like it, face to face, how can you have a few words, and you don't have to interact afterwards. How can you put on a face to show others? ”

Fang Xuan was annoyed that her mother was biased towards Zhou Shaojin, and couldn't help but whisper: "I just don't like her-Sister Jia also said that she grew up in Jiuru Lane since she was a child, and she should be very familiar with Cousin Xu." But when she saw Sister Jia, she was very cold, maybe she once liked Xu and not necessarily ......"

Fang's mother immediately covered her mouth, and said with a frosty face: "If you dare to say it again, the first thing I will do after I go back is to sue your father and let him punish you with family law!" ”

Fang Xuan had never seen her mother who was so strict with herself, and nodded in fear.

Fang's mother looked slightly gloomy, and after that, she took her daughter's hand and never let go.

Zhou Shaojin and Li had dinner in Yushu Hutong before going back.

But not long after he went back, the eldest uncle of the Li family asked him to pass the word to see the Li family.

Li asked the maid to avoid the mother-in-law and invited her brother to the hall to speak.

Uncle Li drank too much, was drunk, and spoke with the smell of wine, but his thinking was clear and clear: "What do you guess the fourth master of the Cheng family asked me to do?" He introduced me to Liu Yong! Do you know who Liu Yong is? Now the most powerful eunuch in the palace! If we can follow his path, don't say that we want to be an imperial businessman, not to mention that we want to be an imperial businessman, it is also a matter of grasping it...... I was so happy today that I drank two more glasses. The fourth master is really good. There are not many words, but every sentence is on the point. If it weren't for him this time, I wouldn't have been able to get a job. I invited Master Chishang to come out for a drink! Of course, is the fourth master of the Cheng family married? If he wasn't from a two-list jinshi, it would be good to marry our eldest girl to him! ”

Li hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Big brother, don't interfere in this matter, the marriage of the fourth master of Chi, unless you want our eldest girl to be a concubine, you won't mention a word!" ”

Uncle Li smiled and said, "Aren't I thinking about it casually? I can really let our eldest girl go to be a concubine for someone else......"

Li breathed a sigh of relief and persuaded his brother to go back to the house to rest.

The eldest uncle of the Li family couldn't sleep excitedly, and pulled the Li family to talk for a long time before returning to the guest room.

Li couldn't help but sigh a little: "I only say that the fourth master of Daochi treats people coldly, but he is cold-faced and warm-hearted. ”

Mama Li smiled and nodded.

The next day, the Li family told Zhou Shaojin about Cheng Chi's matchmaking for the Li family's uncle.

Zhou Shaojin was very surprised.

In her impression, Uncle Chi is not such an enthusiastic person.

However, maybe there are elders in Jinling who are pressing, but he just has the heart and doesn't want to get into trouble.

"Tomorrow let's go and thank Uncle Chi, shall we?" Zhou Shaojin said, his face was slightly red, "Let my uncle know that we remember him well?" ”

Dear, the addition of the Dragon Boat Festival!
