Chapter 229: Ruyi Lane's Post
Xu Qijin and Xu Qirong were a little surprised, during the Chinese New Year last year, there was no post on Ruyi Lane.
Cai Liu continued: "I also invited the master and aunt, in the final analysis, it is a family, the Spring Festival, you can't not eat the New Year's dinner!" ”
Xu Qirong sneered in his heart, he didn't see anyone telling them to go back for the reunion dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve! Then I understood why I asked them to go back...... Where are you going to invite them, it's obviously turning a corner to invite Du Dagongzi!
Although Du Guangsheng, the father of Du Dagongzi, is only an official from the third grade, a few levels lower than Liang Wenjing and Duan Xu, but the salt transportation envoy is a fat shortage, and the Du family has been in Jiangsu and Zhejiang for so many years, and the financial resources and connections in his hands are not comparable to ordinary officials. What's more, the Du family, the housekeeper, and the Xue family are in-laws, and the housekeeper is the maiden family of Princess Yu, which is intricately intertwined, and the strength is comparable to that of the prince of the current dynasty.
If Xu Tingjin had a relationship with the Du family at this time, he would have been able to get more than one or two benefits.
When Xu Qijin and Du Zhong got married before, they still had a lukewarm attitude over there, but at this time, they suddenly showed goodwill, to say that no one instructed them, Xu Qirong didn't believe it at all.
Xu Qijin felt a little funny: "Our eldest uncle is also a long skill, my husband and I have been in this Zhuangyuan Lane for less than half a day, and they sent someone over there to invite us, and I don't know how they know." ”
This is a suspicion that someone in their family has sent a message to the side of Ruyi Lane.
"There are so many carriages on the way you came, and others can't ask a word when they see it, and it's not impossible to spread it to Ruyi Lane." Xu Qirong shook his head. said, "You know what kind of character our father is, even if the Xu family treats him badly." He won't show it in front of others either. I'm just afraid that my brother-in-law is young and will be deceived by Xu Tingjin's words. ”
If the Du family is really involved with Xu Tingjin, in case Xu Tingjin has an accident in the future, I am afraid that not only the Du family, but also the housekeeper, the Xue family and the Yuwang Mansion will be involved.
In the previous life, her father followed Liang Wenjing to rebel, but the scholar rebelled for three years, so it failed. But now if the Du family is a group of people, they have entered it. The outcome is not yet known.
Although Xu Qirong felt that the old prince was stupid and obedient, he would not be a generation of Ming Jun, but. In her heart, Xu Tingjin is not suitable for guarding this country than the old prince.
Xu Qirong told Xu Qijin about the things in his previous life, and Xu Qijin naturally knew the importance of this. Xu Qijin has been a companion by Shuanglian's side for a few years, and Mr. Xixi, who was invited by Yuwangfu, not only taught them poetry and book etiquette. Sometimes I also talk about some things about the government. Therefore. Compared with Xu Qirong, Xu Qijin knows more about the power in this.
At the moment, he was a little anxious, and instructed: "Wait a while, you will pester your father, and I will ride in a carriage with him." ”
This is the meaning of reminding Eucommia separately.
Although the husband and wife relationship between her and Du Zhong is not deep, she can't watch the Du family fall into the water.
Xu Qirong nodded, quickly changed his clothes, and went out.
When the two sisters arrived at the flower hall, Master Xu Si stood up. "Let's go now!" You're just going to say hello to your grandmother. ”
Eucommia responded yes.
When he got out of the second door, Xu Qirong held Xu Tingyuan's wrist and coquettishly. Xu Tingyuan didn't see the difference, but smiled: "It's so old, in front of your sister and brother-in-law, you still behave like a child, and I'm not afraid that your sister and brother-in-law will laugh at you!" ”
Xu Qirong said with a smile: "My sister is married, but she won't come to rob me of my father anymore." If Daddy is eccentric, let Zhuozhuo ride in a carriage with Daddy later. ”
Master Xu Si was a little crying and laughing, and only Xu Qirong could say the three words "eccentric me" so reasonably.
Xu Qijin said on the side: "Daddy will burn it, our family will burn, this is like Daddy!" ”
Master Xu Si stretched out his hand and rubbed Xu Qirong's cheek, and then said to Xu Qijin: "You know how to protect her!" Then he turned to Du Zhong and said, "My Jin'er has been a little adult since she was a child, she gives priority to her sister in everything, and it has become a habit to spoil her sister, you see how my little daughter has been spoiled!" ”
Du Zhong pursed his lips, glanced at Xu Qijin, and thought to himself, her mother is gone, her father likes her sister more in his heart, I heard that her grandmother also likes her sister more, and she herself likes her sister, so no one likes her to protect her?
Xu Qijin turned his head and saw that Du Zhong's eyes were a little strange and a little surprised, and then said with a smile: "Daddy is not happy to say this, Zhuozhuo and I are sisters!" ”
Everyone laughed and got into the carriage, and picked some of the things they had brought from Suzhou before, pulled them in an empty carriage, and followed behind everyone.
When I got to Ruyi Lane, as soon as I got off the carriage, I saw Mrs. Guo waiting at the door with a bunch of female dependents, who should have come to greet them.
Not to mention Xu Qijin and Xu Qirong, even Master Xu Si was also taken aback.
Xu Qirong quietly glanced at Du Zhong's expression, and saw that there was something strange in his expression, so he understood that his sister had already woken him up, but he didn't know if he listened to it.
There was no princess Pingtai among the ladies who came to greet her, but Aunt Qiao was pulled over.
Old Master Xu Si was unhappy in his heart, so he was not happy to talk to Mrs. Guo, and closed his mouth tightly like a gourd with a sawed mouth. Anyway, Sifang has already turned against them.
Xu Qijin glanced at Du Zhong, and didn't want to embarrass Mrs. Guo and others too much in front of her husband's family. took the initiative to step forward, blessed Mrs. Guo, and said with a smile: "Why did my uncle and grandmother come here to greet me today, and Qi Jin is really flattered." It's cold today, so my uncle and grandmother should be careful not to freeze, because my husband and I should go to ask my uncle and grandmother for peace. ”
Du Zhong solemnly smiled, walked to Xu Qijin's side, and said with a long voice: "Say hello to my uncle and grandmother." ”
Mrs. Guo's face looked better, and she said to Du Zhong: "This is Brother Zhong, right?" A talent, a good boy. Our sister Jin married you, which is really a blessing that she has cultivated for eight lifetimes! ”
This is a nice thing to say, and if you taste it carefully, it is even worse than slapping people in the face, and Xu Qirong's face is a little ugly.
Mrs. Guo pulled Aunt Qiao and Grandma Qiao and said to Du Zhong: "This is your grandmother'......"
What kind of grandmother is she!
Du Zhong had seen Princess Pingtai, and now when he saw that Mrs. Guo pulled a woman dressed up in a fancy way to come out and say that it was his grandmother, a trace of weirdness flashed in her eyes, and then her face was full of weirdness, and she turned her head to look at Xu Qijin's eyes, and she was a little embarrassed.
Xu Qijinwan didn't expect that Mrs. Guo would come to this hand, and when Du Zhong looked at her maliciously, her face was even worse, and the tips of her ears were red, as if she was about to drip blood.
When Xu Qirong saw Mrs. Guo pulling Aunt Qiao's sleeve, she felt that something was wrong. When I heard Mrs. Guo say such things, I couldn't wait to step forward and slap her a few times!
Aunt Qiao's grandmother glanced at Du Zhong and Xu Qijin timidly, and then at Xu Tingyuan, not daring to speak.
At this time, it was inappropriate for Xu Qirong to stand up and speak, and while Mrs. Guo's voice did not fall, he hurriedly pulled Mr. Xu Si, who understood and immediately interrupted Mrs. Guo's words.
said: "Du Zhong and Jin'er have just arrived in the capital, so it stands to reason that they should also visit Jin'er and her grandmother first." The aunt is old, and she wants to personally lead Jin'er and Du Zhong to Lanzhi Courtyard, but I am afraid that their juniors will not be able to afford it. Auntie might as well go back to Lin'an Hall first, wait for Du Zhong and Jin'er to meet their grandmother, and then go over to visit you, who are uncles and grandmothers! ”
The words "uncle and grandmother" are a little meaningful.
It was the first time Xu Qirong had seen her father speak so decently, and she couldn't help but give her father a thumbs up in her heart.
Du Zhong came back to his senses, no matter what this old lady Guo thought, his father-in-law's face still couldn't be lost, so he said: "My father-in-law's words are very true, Zhong should also go to see his grandmother first, otherwise wouldn't people in the world say that Zhong doesn't know etiquette." ”
When everyone heard this, they pondered for a while, where is Du Zhong who doesn't understand etiquette, and it is clear that Mrs. Guo is disrespectful to the elderly.
Xu Qirong sneered and looked at Mrs. Guo's face changing, she was born in a small family, and she didn't dare to offend the son of a really big family like Du Zhong, and finally Mrs. Guo strained her face and said, "In this case, the old man will go to Lin'an Hall first and wait for you to come over to say goodbye." ”
Xu Qijin's face turned pale, and he didn't dare to turn his head to look at Du Zhong's face, Mrs. Guo really lost the face of her Xu Qijin family, how can she straighten her waist in front of Du Zhong in the future?
What is she Guo Pingyao, but she is an uncle and grandmother, and she turned her face with the fourth room, and she actually opened her mouth and asked the son-in-law of the fourth room to ask her to say goodbye, what a big face!
Xu Qirong hated Mrs. Guo so much in her heart, and she felt sorry for her sister so much that she couldn't look at everyone, and said, "Sister, brother-in-law, let's go to Lanzhi Courtyard first, I'm afraid that my grandmother will get the news and wait for it!" ”
Master Xu Si also felt sorry for his eldest daughter, but he was a man in the end, and he was not good at beating the wit of this backhouse woman, and when he heard his younger daughter say this, he didn't look at Mrs. Guo and the others, and took someone to cross them and walk towards Lan Zhiyuan.
On the way to Lanzhi Courtyard, Xu Qijin wanted to tell Du Zhong that he was not very close to his uncle and grandmother since he was a child, and wanted to tell Du Zhong that his father had torn his face with the people on his uncle and grandmother's side, and wanted to tell Du Zhong that he was taught by his father first, and then went to Yuwangfu to be a companion, and did not learn from the disgusting behavior of Mrs. Guo, and wanted to tell Du Zhong that his grandmother, father, and sister were all very good people...... But how do you say that? And how can you say it?
In the end, Xu Qijin pursed his lips and walked with Du Zhong without saying a word. Xu Qirong saw it in his eyes, and he was very resentful, thinking that one day he would have to find a place for his sister! (To be continued......)
