Chapter 384: News (Second Update)
Drove out Qi Haoning's belt, Shu Yao began to prepare to make a new robe for his father-in-law in autumn and winter, Prince Yong also had to make two, do it slowly, and when the embroidery was finished, Tuo Guibo sent it, just enough to make a New Year's gift. The father-in-law enjoyed her filial piety so much, and sent strange things, if he didn't do it last year and didn't do it this year, wouldn't it be disappointing?
The items that Shu Yao made for Qi Haoning were all entrusted to Li Tingzhi to take to Yuecheng, and even Gui Bo, the housekeeper of Prince Yong's Mansion, sent a large basket of dry goods and other things.
As Yun Li's cousin and brother-in-law, Shujie taught Li Tingzhi a lesson: "If you go south this time, if you can help Ning Shizi successfully complete the task, it will also be a great achievement." Don't worry about your family, we and my grandfather's family will take care of it.
Li Tingzhi hurriedly bowed: "Thank you, cousin, don't worry, cousin, I will definitely live up to the grace of God, and the support of my grandfather, uncle, and cousin." ”
The Queen Mother and the Empress understand the Yun family's mood of wanting to keep their daughters for a year or two, and at the same time, the two girls have just returned from the northwest, and they have a lot of things to learn and adapt, even embroidering the dowry takes more than half a year, isn't it?
Yunting's wedding date is set for November next year, and the date of Yun Li's marriage has not been specifically set, only roughly within three months after Li Tingzhi returns to Beijing, and in any case, it will be after Yunting's wedding.
Before Li Tingzhi left Beijing, he went to the Yun family to see Yun Li once, and earnestly begged her to take care of his little sister Li Yan, and take Li Yan to learn rules and embroidery female red together. Li Yan is ten years younger than Li Tingzhi, and is only twelve this year. Li Yan's mother passed away not long after she was born, and Li Yan, who was well-behaved and sensible since she was a child, did not let her father and eldest brother bother to take care of her, and learned to cook and wash by herself. Take care of your father and brother. It's just that. Li Yan was born in a small family. He rarely goes out to deal with outsiders, and his personality is too shy, and he is even a little timid and cowardly.
Li Tingzhi looked at Yun Li nervously, he was very worried that Yun Li would not like it, and even refused. The father asked him not to say it, although the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, how can a daughter-in-law ask someone to take care of the sister-in-law before she enters the door? What's more, Yun Li herself is only fifteen. is only three years older than Li Yan.
How long has Li's father been looking forward to his daughter-in-law? Finally, the daughter of the general was willing to marry into their Li family, and when she heard her son say that she was still a strong and cheerful person, she was very satisfied, for fear that her son's "non-specific requirements" would scare the prospective daughter-in-law away. (Father Li is too nervous, the Queen Mother gave marriage, even if he was really scared, he couldn't "run", hehe)
Yun Li looked at Li Ting's nervous look, and thought that there was something serious, and she was waiting to hear it. Pouted and smiled: "What's the matter?" I'll ask the coachman to pick her up tomorrow and give her back in the evening. Didn't you just say that my uncle often likes to go to Zhuangzi, and when he is not at home, Yan'er lives in our house, and when my uncle comes back, he will let people come and inform him. Don't worry, Yan'er follows me and promises not to be timid anymore. ”
Li Tingzhi looked at the "heroic" Yun Li, his eyes burned with strong enthusiasm, and he couldn't wait to immediately hold the smiling sunny woman in front of him tightly in his arms. Pity...... He didn't dare, that would really scare the future little wife.
"Really? Will the elders ......" Li Tingzhi really hopes that the little sister can have more contact with Yun Li, when will that weak and timid little sister be as sunny as Yun Li, and his father and him can rest assured. And the little sister can live in Yunfu, and the father can go out with peace of mind.
After arriving in the capital, because there are many rich people in the capital, the business is getting better and better, and now the family has bought a small village in the suburbs. The father always wanted to go to Zhuangzi to Zhang Luo, go to the mountains behind Zhuangzi to find suitable timber and roots, and take a few apprentices to slowly expand the business, save more dowry, and save a dowry for his daughter in two years.
Yun Li smiled: "No, my grandfather and grandmother know that there is a little sister in your family, and she was not taken care of by her mother not long after she was born, so I am very sorry." Uncle, aunt, and my mother are all very kind people, and Yan'er will be very happy when they live here. Yun Li herself lost her biological mother when she was very young, but the two sisters were lucky, they had a grandmother and an aunt, and later their stepmother entered the door and regarded them as her own.
Before Li Tingzhi left, he personally asked General Yun and Yun Deyan for instructions, and sure enough, as Yun Li said, as soon as his words fell, Yun Deyan smiled and said: "This is a good thing, the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, let Li'er have more contact with your little sister, so that the aunt and sister-in-law can cultivate their feelings." You tell your father that although he is busy with his own business, let Yan'er live with us when he is not in the house. Also, your father can often come to our house to chat with Li'er's grandfather and me when he has free time, and we have been in the countryside for decades, so there is nothing to be restrained. ”
Li Tingzhi hurriedly responded respectfully and expressed his sincere gratitude. To tell the truth, he went to Yuecheng this time, the return date has not been decided, and he is really a little worried about his father and little sister, now that he is okay, with the Yue family to take care of one or two, he will have no worries, and then he got the initiative of his cousin Shujie's commitment, and he set off with confidence. He secretly swore in his heart that even for Yun Li, he would also strive to complete the task as soon as possible and make new contributions. Without Yun Li, where could he have such affectionate relatives?
In the summer, the little boy and the fire are the quietest, as long as there is an ice basin in the house, there is no movement for half a day. At this time, they nested at Shu Yao's feet one by one to "close their eyes and recuperate".
Shu Yao looked at these two super lazy things, shook her head funny, and continued to embroider the robe on her hand.
Mother Liu had just come back from outside, washed her hands and brought Shu Yao a plate of fruit in, with a smile on her face: "Sister, guess, what good things have happened to the two families in the Daimyo Mansion City recently?" ”
Shu Yao snorted, seeing that Mother Liu was smiling so thief, could there be good things for the two families?
Mother Liu knew what Shuyao meant, and she also felt funny: "Sister, don't laugh at me, those two families are indeed good things this time, their own good things." ”
"Oh?" Shu Yao raised her head with interest, it was rare for Mother Liu to emphasize it so much, it seemed very interesting.
Even Zijin and Bai Jin, who were sitting on the side, looked at Liu's mother with sparkling eyes, in their opinion, if they could make Liu's mother smile so brightly, then the two families were really good, and it was not very "good".
Mother Liu saw that the three of them were paying attention, so she had a sense of accomplishment, took a sip of the tea that Bai Jin poured for her, and said leisurely: "Let's talk about Murong Jiaha first, Uncle Murong has officially raised the noble concubine Jia Qiaoniang as his wife." ”
Shu Yao has no accident, now that Murong Ziye is no longer an official, and Murong Shangshu is no longer there, can he still help his preferences? What's more, Jia Qiaoniang now has two sons.
Mother Liu blinked: "It's not over, I heard that Jia Qiaoniang's sister Cuizhu didn't die, and she found it back, and now she has taken it back to Murong Mansion." Tsk, miserable, I heard that I was cut out of my tongue and sold to a lowly building, and in the past few years, I have been tossed to the point that I don't look like a man. As for how lowly it was, she didn't say, she didn't have to dirty her girl's ears.
Oh? Shu Yao also always thought that Cuizhu had been killed by Zhen Mansion a long time ago, but she didn't expect that it was better to live than to die. However, she will not sympathize with Cuizhu, Murong Mansion is behind the scenes, and Zhen Mansion is in the foreground, but Cuizhu is the murderer who killed her mother directly and with her own hands, and she is also the culprit who deceived her in her previous life. Whether she was killed or killed rather than dead, it was her self-inflicted retribution.
It's good, they're all gathered, the two mansions of the Daimyo's Mansion City are getting more and more lively, and Shu Yao is looking forward to their continuous shows.
Bai Jin was anxious: "Mom, what about the Zhen family?" Isn't it that Grandma Zhen really gave birth to a son? "That would be too cheap Zhen Mansion, such a vicious, ruthless and unintentional family should cut off their children and grandchildren. But, uh, Grandma Zhen seems to be quite wronged.
Mother Liu laughed, nodded Bai Jin's forehead and scolded with a smile: "It's only been a few months, do you think that hens lay eggs, just lay them?" ”
Bai Jin was stunned, isn't it? Ten months pregnant, she smiled embarrassedly: "Mom, don't sell it, what good things can the Zhen family do now?" Doesn't it mean that the restaurant business has plummeted? ”
Mother Liu smiled: "Urgent, you are in a hurry, you have to speak sentence by sentence." Hehe, that Zhen Dafu is capable, and found a scholar who has been known as a prodigy since Zhen Keling was a child. I heard that he is now boasting about that son-in-law everywhere, uh, it seems to be called Xue Minglang, he is now waiting for the son-in-law Jin Bang to be named in a few years for their Zhen family to be angry and seek welfare, of course, hehe, and for the Zhen family to inherit the lineage. ”
Xue Minglang? Shu Yao was stunned for a moment, then took a breath, his hand was pricked by a needle, and blood beads appeared, so he quickly put his hand to his mouth and sucked it.
Mother Liu took a clean white cotton handkerchief and put it on Shu Yaowu's finger, and said angrily, "Why are you so careless? Are we still afraid that he will not succeed? Even if that Xue Minglang can be admitted to the top prize, it won't be his turn to find our Lianghou Mansion and the Zhongyi General's Mansion to vent his anger, right? ”
Shu Yao stabilized her mind and said with a smile: "Okay, Mom, doesn't it feel strange?" Zhen Keling was only twelve years old, and at that time she was forced to marry into Murong Mansion, and now no one is forcing her, do you need to be in such a hurry? ”
Mother Liu pouted: "Zhen Fu is finally a little self-aware, I'm afraid that the longer the time, the more widely their family's affairs will be spread, and he can't find a son-in-law who satisfies him." I heard that this Xue Minglang was found from far away, it seems to be an orphan, his father died a few years ago, and his mother also died of illness a while ago, he has no source of income, and he has no power. A steward of the Zhen Mansion happened to be Xue Minglang's distant cousin, and he knew that Zhen Dafu wanted to find a fatherless and motherless person, so he thought of his cousin. Anyway, the woman is still young, and the man is filial piety, so he can't get married right away, so he signed a contract first, and then got married after three years. (To be continued......)
