Qiu's family banquet was held, and like her people, he was low-key, simple and introverted, and only invited Xinglin Hutong and Chaoyangmen.

Mrs. Guo was very satisfied with how much the Qiu family was capable of doing great things, and not only brought Zhou Shaojin over, but also brought a knife of Chengxin paper, two pieces of Duan inkstone and a box of lake pens to Cheng Rang.

But when Zhou Shaojin helped Mrs. Guo get off the sedan chair in front of the weeping flower gate, and saw Wu Baozhang who followed Yuan, Cheng Zheng, Min Jia and others to meet him, he still couldn't help but be stunned.

Min Jia smiled and explained: "I asked Brother and Sister Nuo to come with me - she is also lonely in the capital alone. ”

But I haven't seen each other for a few days, is their relationship so good?

Zhou Shaojin smiled slightly and did not speak.

This is Qiu's banquet, and she naturally won't be noisy.

After seeing the ceremony, the group entered the banquet room to drink tea, and Mrs. Guo asked Zhou Shaojin to take the gift to Cheng Rang to Qiu.

Qiu was naturally overjoyed when he won Mrs. Guo's reward, and hurriedly took the menu to Mrs. Guo: "See if there are any additions or subtractions." ”

Zhou Shaojin hurriedly helped Mrs. Guo get reading glasses.

Old man Guo didn't bother to look at it, handed the menu to Zhou Shaojin, and said, "Take a look-what are the taboos, you know in your heart." ”

has been married to the Cheng family for more than 20 years, and I don't know my mother-in-law's preferences, so what kind of daughter-in-law do you have? What's more, Qiu had quietly discussed it with Zhou Shaojin before this menu.

She smiled and read all the dishes on the menu, and when she saw that it was the same as when the two of them discussed, she smiled and handed the menu to Qiu, and said, "There is a second sister-in-law." The ones prepared are all my mother's favorite food. ”

Old Madam Guo laughed when she heard this.

Qiu was also very happy. handed the menu to the housekeeper's mother behind him, sat around Mrs. Guo with Yuan and others, and talked to Mrs. Guo: "The second master has been in Beijing and has never been out of Beijing, so I don't know what to bring to the second master." I asked my sister-in-law, and my sister-in-law gave me a list, otherwise I don't have a clue here! ”

Yuan Shi smiled: "I also painted a scoop according to the gourd, I didn't understand these things back then, or my mother sued me!" ”

Older people like to be nostalgic.

When Mrs. Guo listened, she talked about some things about Cheng Xun and Cheng Jing's first entry into officialdom.

Min Jia couldn't help but look at Mrs. Guo.

Look at Yuan's out-of-tune look. She also thought that the Cheng family was exaggerating. I didn't expect the old lady to be a shrewd and powerful person.

The weather was relatively hot, and after lunch, everyone rested for a while and began to sing.

Cheng Zheng and Mrs. Guo commented on the drama skills of the Lingren. Cheng Xiao, Yuan Shi, Min Jia and Wu Baozhang listened with interest. That Yuan and Min Jia occasionally commented a few words. is also quite insightful, and at first glance, he is a person who likes to listen to dramas.

Zhou Shaojin had no intention of joining in the fun, so he sat on the side and listened. Cheng Sheng saw that his mother Qiu's mother was busy preparing dinner, so he talked to Zhou Shaojin about the female celebrity: "...... Cousin Xiao gave me the swaddling shape you drew for their brother Rui, and I also found someone to embroider one. I'll show you when the time comes! ”

"Really?" Zhou Shaojin was about to forget about this matter, she smiled, "Okay, I'll see what color you use." ”

The pattern is good-looking, and the color matching is good.

Cheng Sheng smiled: "Do you still have any children's clothes there?" I'll ask the maids to help me draw a few of them. ”

"What do you want?" Zhou Shaojin still likes Cheng Sheng very much, "Shall I draw a few pictures for you?" This pattern is renovated every year, but I used to have it, and I don't know if it can get into your eyes. ”

"Auntie's embroidery has always been praised, and those who can stay must be good things." Cheng Shenghe said with a smile, "Then this matter is decided, and I will take someone to you tomorrow to have a look." ”

Zhou Shaojin nodded.

Suddenly, someone laughed and said, "What is the matter?" ”

Zhou Shaojin and Cheng Sheng raised their heads, not knowing when Wu Baozhang came to them.

Cheng Sheng didn't know about Wu Baozhang, her mother's brother-in-law was a guest at her mother's house, so she naturally wanted to be treated. Cheng Sheng said the story with a smile.

Wu Baozhang pinched the handkerchief and smiled, and said: "The third aunt and grandmother have found the right person, Aunt Chi was a shy sex when she was a girl, either reading and writing at home, or doing needlework at home, we didn't ask Aunt Chi for help in drawing patterns." ”

Zhou Shaojin didn't want to have anything to do with Wu Baozhang, so he pretended to be at a loss and said: "When I was at home, people often begged me to draw patterns, and I also painted my nephew and daughter-in-law?" How come I don't remember? Most of the time I stayed at home, and when Nuo's daughter-in-law came to the house, it seemed that she only saw it two or three times......" she recalled, "What kind of tricks did I draw for Nuo's nephew and daughter-in-law?" Can my niece and daughter-in-law give me a heads-up? ”

Wu Baozhang saw that he had curried favor with Zhou Shaojin three times and twice, but Zhou Shaojin didn't appreciate it, so he couldn't help but be secretly annoyed, said a few words vaguely, turned around and listened to Cheng Zheng's commentary, and no longer paid attention to Zhou Shaojin.

Zhou Shaojin's ears are finally quiet.

Cheng Sheng got up and went to the official room.

Zhou Shaojin saw that she was holding her waist and her movements were slow, which was very different from her usual cleverness, so she couldn't help but be a little worried, got up and helped her, and accompanied her to the official room.

Min Jia, who had been listening carefully to Mrs. Guo's play, suddenly turned around and said to Wu Baozhang with a low smile: "I didn't expect you to have a good relationship with our little aunt?" ”

Wu Baozhang remembered what happened just now, his expression was a little cold, and he said: "It's not good-it's just that I know the strike!" ”

Min Jia smiled: "That's better than me, at least I know." Don't you know, when I saw it that day, I dared to love that I had a young aunt who was three years older than me, and I thought it was an uncle or uncle's stepfamily, but I never thought it was Uncle Chi's wife. How did Uncle Chi marry such a young aunt? Sometimes I'm a little embarrassed to shout? ”

Wu Baozhang heard Min Jia say that Zhou Shaojin was like an uncle or uncle's stepfamily, and his heart was happy, and he couldn't help but say: "Who said it wasn't!" She used to call me sister! Now I call her aunt up......"

Min Jia pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "I think this little aunt has a very gentle temperament. I guess I won't have anything to do with you! ”

She didn't dare to say it out loud in front of her before, but now that she is married to Cheng Chi, she puts up the pedigree of her elders and ignores her.

Thinking of this, Wu Baozhang felt bored in his heart.

Min Jia turned his eyes slightly, and said to Wu Baozhang with a smile: "I also have to go to the official room." ”

Wu Baozhang thought about her intimacy for no reason when she recognized her relatives, and then warmly invited her, sneering in her heart.

Although she wanted to step on Zhou Shaojin a few times, she was not that brainless, who did Min Jia think she was the most? A few kind words. Can a few sycophants fool her and confuse her for her use?

Wu Baozhang decided to accompany Min Jia to the official room. See what the hell she wants to do?

The two of them held hands and walked out of the hall affectionately through the back door.

There are a few peonies planted in the corner of the backyard wall, and the purple and red ground is blooming luxuriantly.

The two of them slowly walked towards the official room.

Just a few steps away from the official house, they met Zhou Shaojin and Cheng Sheng. The two sides said hello. Backsliding.

Min Jia couldn't help but glance back at Zhou Shaojin. said: "You said, the brothers of the Cheng family were very fond of the little aunt? ”

"yes!" Wu Baozhang really wanted to see what kind of expression Min Jia's face had when it cracked, "There is no need to talk about Brother Cong and Brother Cong in the fourth room. That's holding it in your hand for fear of falling, and it's afraid of melting in your mouth. is Cheng Lu - a side branch of the Cheng family, but he is the most proficient in reading among the Cheng family brothers, and they all send her something every now and then...... We thought she would stay in the Cheng family at the time, but we didn't expect that she really stayed in the Cheng family, but she didn't marry ...... Well...... But he married Uncle Chi...... However, Uncle Chi was also very protective of her at the beginning......"

Min Jia's heart skipped a beat when she listened.

When Wu Baozhang talked about Zhou Shaojin's marriage, he did not use the word "marrying" the Cheng family, but "staying" in the Cheng family.

Could it be as she thought, what is between Cheng Xu and Zhou Shaojin?

But if that's the case, how could Zhou Shaojin marry Cheng Chi?

Or is it a personal affair?

Min Jia sensed Wu Baozhang's malice.

But I can't help but think about it.

She beat a drum in her heart and smiled: "Is she beautiful?" Everyone will protect a beautiful girl, this is the long-term affection of people. ”

"Not really!" Wu Baozhang smiled, "Even if she does something wrong, everyone can quickly forgive her." ”

Min Jia's eyelids jumped.

Knowing that Wu Baozhang had dug a pit for her, she couldn't help but jump - she had also tried her best to inquire about Zhou Shaojin's people in the past few days, but she didn't find out anything, but asked something from the mother-in-law beside Mrs. Fang.

In addition to being beautiful that week, Shaojin could compare with Fang Xuan.

But whose daughter-in-law looks at the color?

Zhou Shaojin could let the Cheng family give up Fang Xuan to marry her, which was unusual in itself.

"Doing something wrong?" Min Jia looked surprised and said, "What did she do wrong?" ”

Wu Baozhang changed the topic hesitantly and refused to talk about it again.

Min Jia's heart was itching, like a clam shell at the corner of Wu Baozhang's mouth, and she couldn't ask anything anymore.

She had to ask the people in Xinglin Hutong until Cheng Sheng came to report the good news, saying that she had given birth to a big fat boy, and there was no progress in this matter.

Min Jia looked at the dim light on the latticework of Cheng Xu's tightly closed study on the night of the moon, and his hands clenched into fists.

Cheng Xu either has someone in his heart, or he is born cold.

They have been married for such a long time, and the days they have shared the same bed are numbered.

Mother-in-law asked her to put Cheng Xu in the house as soon as possible, as much as possible to the Cheng family, Cheng Xu did not end up in the spring of last year, and Cheng Xu of the next subject must have a try, and after the New Year, Cheng Xu will study wholeheartedly, she had better not "disturb" Cheng Xu.

She simply asked Su Yue to serve Cheng Xu in the study.

But Cheng Xu was well-behaved, and never looked at Su Yue more.

If she didn't understand that Cheng Xu had someone hidden in her heart, she would have lived for so many years in vain.

But how to break this game?

Min Jia felt that apart from Wu Baozhang, she really couldn't find a second person.

Although it is to seek the skin of the tiger, if you don't even have the guts, it is even more impossible to get the tiger skin!
