Chapter 197: Family Affairs (Part II) (1st Update)
Nangong Miao? Yao Xuelan was stunned, that kid was not bad, but he was just ...... After all, it's a retreat......
Moreover, Nangong Miao is dignified enough, but ...... Wouldn't it be too "non-cannibalistic"? There are no female elders in the Xia Mansion, Nangong Miao is the housewife when she passes the door, and she is in charge of the affairs of the inner house, all kinds of related communication, and even the family affairs of Zhang Luo Shuyao and Shuwen in the future, will fall on her.
Shujie noticed the hesitation on Yao Xuelan's face, and sighed in his heart, Aunt Lan is not satisfied with Miss Nangong?
Although Shujie's family affairs do not need Yao Xuelan's approval, he is a person who knows what is good and bad, and he knows that Yao Xuelan treats the three of them sincerely, and if she is not satisfied, she will also consider them from the bottom of her heart. Otherwise, Marquis Weiyuan wouldn't have talked to him so much just now, and completely treated him as his own son and nephew.
Shujie couldn't care about being shy, and looked at Yao Xuelan sincerely: "Aunt Lan, I'm ...... I think Miss Nangong is very good, but our mother is gone, and we still need Aunt Lan to check it. Aunt Lan isn't ...... Do you feel inappropriate? ”
Yao Xuelan could see from the nervousness in Shujie's eyes that the child was indeed tempted by Nangong Miao, but she still clearly expressed her respect for her opinion, and her heart warmed at the moment, and she smiled: "It's not that Aunt Lan doesn't like Nangong girl, it's just that Jie'er, you are the eldest son, and your daughter-in-law must not only be a good wife, but also be a good housewife." The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, and in the future, Yao'er and Wen'er need to worry about everything, not just be good to them and care about food, clothing, housing and transportation. ”
Shujie's eyes darkened, he knew that what Aunt Daolan said was right, and Wei Yuanhou also said just now that marriage is not just a matter of liking or disagreeing between two people. Especially now they no longer live in a simple environment like a small courtyard on Xitang Street. I should be going to be a leader in the future. Plus the relationship of the stepfather. All kinds of complicated relationships and socializing cannot be blindly pushed away. My wife doesn't just care about and take care of her younger siblings, but Aunt Mei and Mother Liu can also do those things, right?
Listening to Yao Xuelan's tone, Shuwen seemed to disapprove of Sister Miao being their sister-in-law, and was a little anxious, but he didn't dare to speak out directly. He respected Yao Xuelan as much as he did his mother, although he didn't fully understand what Yao Xuelan said.
Shu Yao thought about it for a while, and then understood Yao Xuelan's concerns. It's a pity that she didn't come into contact with Nangong Miao at all in her previous life, and she didn't know anything about her. But. It can be seen from Nangong Miao's attitude towards Chu Kexin's sisters last time that she is not a cowardly woman who can be kneaded by others.
Seeing the expression on Shujie's face, Yao Xuelan couldn't bear it again: "Don't be depressed first, I'll inquire more and probe Mrs. Nangong's tone." Mrs. Nangong is capable, and she will not relax her daughter's teaching. ”
Shujie's face was relieved, and he quickly hesitated again: "Aunt Lan, I don't want Miss Nangong and Nangong Mansion to be reluctant because I saved Miss Nangong last time." ”
Wei Yuanhou couldn't help but grin, Shujie underestimated his charm too much, if he was not mistaken. Master Nangong had a crush on Shujie at that time, but he was worried that Shujie would mind Nangong Miao's retreat. And Nangong Miao. The cooperation between that little girl and Shujie was really tacit, and she hugged Shujie tightly and quietly from beginning to end and hid in his arms, so that Shujie could concentrate on the enemy. There are reasons why Nangong Miao herself is calm, bold and careful, and it should be more because of her unreserved trust and dependence on Shujie. Hehe, when a girl can fully trust you, how can you be reluctant?
Yao Xuelan also smiled: "Don't worry, Aunt Lan knows that the melon is not sweet, besides, I will also talk to Miss Nangong in person." ”
Yao Xuelan is a resolute person, and soon invited the Duchess of Zhongguo (the original Mrs. Shizi, upgraded) to explore the meaning of Nangong Mansion first, if there is anything, she is not good to ask or ask in person.
Duchess Zhongguo sat in Nangong Mansion for two hours, and Mrs. Nangong personally sent her out of the door, so she went to the study to find Master Nangong with a smile on her face.
Master Nangong has long been in love with Shujie, so he has been paying attention to information related to Shujie since that plum banquet. As far as he knows, many powerful people and great families have taken a fancy to Shujie, including the maiden family of the Queen Mother, and I heard that the Ma family also entered the palace to find Ma Guifei.
Master Nangong was thinking about whether to also explore the tone of the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion, and he was worried that being politely rejected would embarrass Nangong Miao again, after all, there is no impermeable wall.
Unexpectedly, the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion asked someone to come to the door first.
Mrs. Nangong was also very satisfied, but she did not forget the two meanings expressed by the Duchess of Zhongguo, and told Master Nangong to listen.
Shujie didn't want to force Nangong Miao and Nangong Mansion with the matter of rescuing, so that Master Nangong became more and more satisfied with his character.
As for Yao Xuelan's concerns about whether Nangong Miao can be qualified to be the head of the house, Master Nangong expressed his understanding: "This is natural, in ordinary people, the bride is by her mother-in-law's side when she marries, serving and learning at the same time, unless there are special circumstances, there is no opportunity to be in charge of the house for eight to ten years." But the Xia family is different, the eldest daughter-in-law is the housewife as soon as she enters the door, and she is not able to take care of the inner house and various relationships, how can Shujie feel at ease to do things outside? Jin Gongzi will also be dissatisfied. ”
Mrs. Nangong smiled: "Isn't it? So I told the Duchess of Guo, we can understand the concerns of Mrs. Weiyuanhou, Miao'er rarely participated in various gatherings before, and it will indeed be misunderstood as being arrogant and ignoring mundane things. But outsiders don't know that Lu Daomiao'er began to take charge of the affairs of her yard and the shops and Zhuangzi under her name at the age of twelve. Miao'er doesn't like to socialize, but marrying into the summer house, she has no choice, she will naturally try to do her best, Miao'er is very attentive to Shujie and the two little ones. ”
Master Nangong nodded: "That's what I said, but if the family affairs are decided, you still have to take Miao'er out of the country to exercise, and you can teach it for a while before you get married." In this way, I heard that Mrs. Weiyuan Hou is pregnant, you will pay a visit to the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion next time, and take Miao'er to visit the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, so that Shujie and the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion can see our sincerity. Mrs. Weiyuan Hou personally chatted with Miao'er, and she could rest assured. Such a rare family affair does not need to be pretentious. ”
Mrs. Nangong agreed, and she had this intention.
Master Nangong is very confident in his precious daughter-in-law, Nangong Miao's director and account keeper, many of them are taught by him personally. The Nangong family's discipline of their sons was almost harsh, and they had to let them start from scratch by themselves, and learn in practice after several struggles. For daughters, there are no requirements in these aspects, just learn rules and etiquette, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and female red embroidery like other noble girls.
Nangong Miao is the only concubine of Lord Nangong, and she is smart and beautiful, but Master Nangong is very patient to explain and teach some things in person, and she also gave her the property under her own name to try her hand. (To be continued......)
