sent Midu's mother and son away with a little daughter, and Zhao Xiu was also relieved.

Sending a few more people to "wait" is also just in case, lest the mother and son return to Guangdezhou, and go around making trouble for the Zhao family under the sign of the in-laws of the Hou Mansion in Jiannan. It would not be good for them to speak ill of one of the families of the rice province to the people in their hometown. The Zhao family doesn't have to take those words to heart, but one of the families in Mi Province will have to return to family life in the future. Leaving a few people to watch can also prevent Mido's mother and son from saying things that shouldn't be said and doing things that shouldn't be done.

Now Uncle Mi is staying in the capital with her son. Zhao Wei and Zhao Xiu, brother and sister, had the intention of using them to contain Old Lady Mi and Mi Duzhi, but after thinking about it carefully, wouldn't it be worse if they used Mi Yulian to contain Aunt Mi in turn? simply solved this problem for Aunt Mi. This time is not too long, as long as it is not until one of the families in Mi Province no longer needs Mi Auntie. When the time comes, Aunt Mi will return to her hometown, and how she will get along with her mother-in-law and husband will have nothing to do with Zhao Xiu and them. If her son is a worthy and upright person, it is nothing to carry one or two. Her daughter left her to worry about herself.

Zhao Xiu even instructed his family's tea shop in Hangzhou in advance to let Shopkeeper Cai help buy a small grange, and fifty or sixty acres of land would be enough - of course, it was not given to one of Mido's families, it was too cheap for them. Mi Duzhi has no money left now, and when he returns to his hometown in the future, life is too tight, and the clansmen will definitely have to ask, and they will have to send things over in three days, and maybe they will have to discuss building a few words about Nanhou Mansion. Zhao Xiu reserved the production of these dozens of acres of land, which was specially used for the daily use of one of the Midu families. It was enough to ensure that they had no worries about food and clothing, and barely maintained the dignity of a squire's family, but they did not have any extra money to accumulate. And the money and food were all handed over to the two mothers-in-law who were waiting beside Mrs. Mi. It's not the hands of the Mi family. They don't want to be poor, so just be obedient. Once disobedient, the servants sent by the Zhao family can intercept this supply at any time, and the title deed is still in Zhao Wei's hands anyway. Even if others know about it and are willing to help his uncle's family, it is Jiannan Hou's kindness and will not give anything. And rightfully so. Who said that a nephew must support his uncle?

The Mi clan didn't have to lend a helping hand because they were worried that one of Mido's families would starve to death. One of Mido's families has no reason to come to the door to fight the autumn breeze. If they still have the cheekiness to beg to come to the door, the people who know the opportunity should know how to refuse. If you can't pay it back, Zhao Wei and Zhao Xiu can't help.

In order to prevent one of the meters from opening the mouth to reverse black and white. poured dirty water on the heads of others, and Zhao Wei also specially wrote a letter to the patriarch of the Mi family. Of course, the letter was written very skillfully, and it was a complaint. Hatred for Midozhira. And no one grabbed the handle. Zhao Wei has seen a lot in the officialdom, and he has already experienced it, and his pen skills have increased greatly.

I don't know if Aunt Mi understands the hard work of Zhao Wei and Zhao Xiu's brothers and sisters, since her mother-in-law and husband left, her whole person seems to have gotten rid of the invisible shackles, and the smiles on her face have increased. She is very attentive to Mrs. Mi, a concubine, and takes good care of everything, what soup nourishes her body. What kind of side dishes can be appetizing, she will make them for Mrs. Mi. In the second room, she does not interfere; She needs to be entertained. She was polite and courteous; As soon as the sun went down, she went back to the courtyard where she lived, and came back the next day after breakfast.

Mrs. Mi was a little embarrassed, so she specially asked her daughter to buy a little maid ring and a scholar, the scholar sent it directly to Wanping to take care of Mi Xiuming's daily life, and the little maid gave it to Aunt Mi, saving her from having only a borrowed mother-in-law by her side, and followed her out, helped with cleaning, and had to serve tea and water for cooking and laundry.

Aunt Mi felt more and more Mrs. Mi's affection, and she was a little more attentive. When entertaining the ladies who came to congratulate, some of them had also heard rumors, and learned that she was the wife of Mi Duzhi, and that her husband and mother-in-law had only come to Mi Province's house to make trouble before, and they were secretly surprised to see that Mrs. Mi invited her to entertain guests. Those who have eyes don't mention it, but those who don't can't help but gossip. If it were a different one, Aunt Mi would definitely prevaricate with words. Now she didn't do this, but sighed and sighed, and didn't say it clearly, just said that it was her own or not, and the husband and wife of Kuami Province were kind, and by the way, she was also grateful to them for bringing their son to study, and finally said a few good words about Jiannanhou Mansion. Who is suspicious that Jiannanhou is not on good terms with her grandmother and uncle, she must argue with that person, put on the appearance of a good aunt who loves her juniors, and protects the Zhao family brothers and sisters everywhere.

As soon as people heard it, they knew that the previous incident was Mido's fault, and now even Mido's wife and children admit that it was their own fault, and in the so-called rumors, it is clear who is right and who is wrong. The husband and wife of Jiannan Houfu and Mi Province have been praised, but Mi Duzhi has become more and more discredited, and the Jinshi who used to be on the same list with him mentioned it in private, and they were not ashamed. Although some people even felt ashamed of Aunt Mi and sighed that Mrs. Mi was too kind, Uncle Mi endured it. As long as the second room of the Jiannanhou Mansion and the Mi family are willing to help her son, what is this little gossip? Now she is living comfortably, she doesn't have to worry about food and clothing, and she doesn't have to be beaten and scolded by the court, and her son has a future, which is much better than before. If anything, it is that the marriage of her children has not yet been decided.

In this regard, Mrs. Mi has given Aunt Mi a reassurance. The second room always has to go back to his hometown for the New Year to worship his ancestors, and there are many relatives and friends in Guangde, and the relationship with the long house is quite good. It is not difficult to find a suitable marriage for Mi Xiuming and Mi Yulian in Guangde. Moreover, if Mi Xiuming can't study and still grows a little bit in general affairs, Mi Xingzhi can also take him to see and understand in office, and then he is afraid that he will not be able to kiss him?

Of course, this is all reserved as a backup. Aunt Mi still wants to find relatives for her children in the capital, and now she is secretly inquiring about whether the neighbors have honest and courteous people, and there are school-age children. Now she has no face to ask for the construction of Nanhou Mansion, so she can only find this kind of person she can reach.

Aunt Mi naturally didn't know about this little thing, Zhao Xiu naturally didn't know. She's pretty busy right now, too.

Out of the first month, Zhao Wei went back to the yamen to run an errand. The Ministry of Rites drafted the regulations for the wedding of the prince of Guangping and sent it to the palace of the king of Guangping, but the prince took the prince to the hot spring village to escape the cold, and he never returned to the city. The chief of the palace handed a letter to the hot spring village, and the prince replied that he should take the charter to Jiannanhou to see. The Ministry of Rites had to send the documents to the Jiannan Hou Mansion again. Zhao Wei was not available, so Zhao Xiu had to do it for him. Although there is a counselor of the Zhang family, she is really the first in this dynasty to decide the daughter of the boudoir who decides her own wedding regulations.

Zhang's family was still talking about agreeing on his grandson's marriage charter before his granddaughter made a decision. She specially invited more than one monk to join the eight characters for her grandson and Mi Yingzhi, all of whom said that it was a good luck marriage, and she was so happy that she smiled, and immediately ordered someone to prepare a small ceremony, and sent it to the small courtyard of the Mi family on an auspicious day.

The small gift sent by the Hou Mansion of Jiannan must also be rich, although it is not as good as the big ceremony, but there are also sixteen lifts. What fruit cakes, wine and tea are readily available, gold and silver jewelry, all kinds of clothing, are the most popular styles nowadays, and they are carried to Mi's house lively, and the neighbors come to congratulate, and distant relatives and friends have come to the door.

After the small ceremony, you have to agree on the wedding date. The Mi family wants to postpone it as much as possible, and the Zhang family wants to do it as early as possible, although the two get along well, there are still inevitable conflicts.

Zhao Wei thought about it, and persuaded Zhang: "Grandmother, their family is also in trouble, after two days, my father-in-law will have to go back to Hangzhou, and he will return to Beijing at the end of the year, and the next official doesn't know where to go." Yingzhi is his eldest daughter, and she has raised such a big one, like a jewel, so he must let him watch his daughter get married. Besides, although there is an aunt and aunt over there, in the end, it is the female dependent in the next room, and the name is not right. On weekdays, it's just enough to entertain a few female relatives who are not very close, and the major event of the marriage of a daughter can't be managed by a concubine. My mother-in-law wants to come and look forward to doing it herself, right? When she gives birth and finishes her confinement, it will be the same for her to have a happy event tomorrow in the spring. ”

Zhang said: "Why is your grandmother in a hurry to marry your daughter-in-law?" Your sister is getting married next year, so you can't really ask her to be a girl who has not yet come out of the cabinet to prepare for her own marriage, right? You can't be idle, your grandmother is old, who in the family will take care of things? The sooner your daughter-in-law enters the door, the sooner she can take up these things, and she will be able to speak out decently. If you don't get married until next spring, will it be true that your sister will do so many things this year? Next year, your daughter-in-law will pass the door, and it will be three or two months before your sister gets married, what if she can't finish learning? Don't think she's a good one to help her mother with the housekeeping at home. We are dignified, and the rules are different from their scholarly families. Not to mention anything else, relatives and friends in Beijing always want to lead her to see, the queen mother in the palace is bound to ask for peace, the field industry in her hometown, and the fields in all parts of Beijing, don't you need to let her be familiar with it? Your sister has been in charge of the family for a few years, and she knows a lot of things, but it is not something that others can learn by casually talking. ”

Zhao Wei was stunned when he heard this, he didn't know that there were so many things at home, so he hurriedly went to see Zhao Xiu.

Zhao Xiu pursed her lips and smiled: "This doesn't matter, if my brother can rest assured, it's a big deal that we will reveal the family's property to my sister-in-law in advance, so that she can get familiar with it earlier." ”

Zhang categorically rejected the proposal: "No. She hasn't passed the door yet, even if she can't be a member of our family, how can she tell her about our family? ”

Zhao Xiu snorted: "That's no problem, if she really doesn't have time to learn, my brother will teach her personally." Until then, I'll teach my brother first. ”

Zhao Wei was stunned when he heard it. He has official duties on weekdays, and if he still has to spend effort to familiarize himself with household chores, where can he squeeze out time?

Zhang's vetoed again: "Where can your brother stand it?" He was tired enough just because he was busy with official business. ”

Zhao Xiu blinked and leaned in front of Zhang's family: "Why don't you ...... Grandmother reluctantly helped her grandchildren and daughters-in-law, right? You were a good housekeeper when you were younger, weren't you? ”

"Huh?" Zhang was stunned. (To be continued......)
