The Zhao family went to their uncle's house to pick up the newcomer with great fanfare, and this move simply caused a sensation in the entire Pingliang City.

Of course, some people praise and some despise this kind of thing, and those who praise and envy praise Huifang for having a strong mother's family, and tell her in-laws with practical actions that she has a backer. There are still people who envy Xu Rui, but looking at the attitude of this father-in-law's family, you can know that Lu Dao will definitely help the young couple more in the future.

Of course, the contemptuous people think that this kind of behavior is simply shameful, and they have never heard of the mother's family going up to pick up the bride. Even if the princess got married, I never heard that the emperor sent someone to the princess's mansion to pick up people.

Dong Xiaoman doesn't care about these statements at all. What she cares about is to establish an impression in Pingliang City, and the Xiaoyao Pavilion is the best place to protect calves.

The people of the Northwest are bold and atmospheric, and it is true that they value love and righteousness. There will always be people who know the origin of this daughter with a foreign surname, but doesn't the Zhao family's move just show Zhao Xiaoyao's temper.

Therefore, many self-proclaimed gentlemen, chivalrous men and the like are willing to have a friendship with Erlang. For a while, Erlang was in Pingliang City, but he was the first choice for a hot gentleman with his bare hands. That's another story......

In the Xiaoyao Pavilion, Dong Xiaoman personally asked Huifang about some privacy matters. Of course, she didn't gossip about the privacy of the husband and wife, but asked about the messy family affairs of the Xu family.

Before the husband and wife left, Huifang proposed to go and catch up with her younger brothers and sisters. Xu Rui didn't know how close she was to the Zhao family, so she just stayed in the front hall and drank tea and waited.

Dong Xiaoman waved his sleeves and repelled his subordinates, and Xu Rui saw that there were only three people in this hall: father-in-law, mother-in-law and him. Knowing that he had something to say to himself, he quickly put down his teacup and prepared to listen respectfully.

"Uncle. There are some things that I, as a mother-in-law, shouldn't say. It's just that Huifang has been raised in front of me. Then I have to say a few words. Dong Xiaoman opened his mouth politely. Xu Rui smiled innocently: "Where is the mother-in-law, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"Your Xu family has been separated for many years, although your biological parents are still alive. It stands to reason that you should not forget your roots, and filial piety should be shared with them. But I'm afraid what I've seen today is a bit too much, do you know the way? Dong Xiaoman got straight to the point, although Xu Rui wanted to say this matter, he never thought that he would say it so bluntly.

"You're not feeling well, for sure, I can understand that. You have to think about it, filial piety is the most important thing. You are right to be filial to your biological parents. But now that they occupy the magpie's nest and the two rooms are one, have you ever thought about the mood of your adoptive parents under the nine springs? What do you make the world think of you? When Dong Xiaoman said this, Xu Rui couldn't help but blush.

"What my mother-in-law said was that I thought about it too. But after all, they are my biological parents, and I have been raised in front of them for more than ten years, and this kind of relationship cannot be broken. "Actually, Xu Ruizhi said that the second aunt had done a little too much on weekdays, but if she said it too much, she would be said to have forgotten her roots.

"I'm your mother-in-law, it's hard to hear. I'm glad that your parents are alive, after all, Huifang needs someone to help her when she arrives in a new place. But it can't be too much for the second room. Otherwise, if you think about it, what do people outside think of you? They'll think you're eating inside and out. The long house raised a white-eyed wolf for nothing. When the adoptive parents are gone, they take their biological parents over to enjoy the blessings. Let's talk about something ugly, someone with a heart chews your tongue and says that you are greedy for the money of the long house, so you passed it on to the long house. No matter how ruthless you are, it's possible that you killed your adoptive parents for money. After Dong Xiaoman finished speaking, Xu Rui stood up in fright.

"No, how can there be such a vicious person." Although Xu Rui's mouth said this, he still couldn't stop his body from trembling.

Dong Xiaoman waved his hand and motioned for Xu Rui to sit down: "I'm not saying that I've heard anything, I'm just giving you a wake-up call." ”

After speaking, he looked at Erlang, and said to Xu Rui gently: "You have also heard of the reputation of Granny Hua, how can a person like her hand over her only granddaughter to an ordinary person?" ”

Xu Rui's body shook when he heard this, and he looked at the two people in the seat with wide eyes. Dong Xiaoman pursed his lips and smiled: "I won't hide it from you, your father-in-law was also a well-known figure when he was young." He traveled south and north, and he didn't know how many things he had experienced, and how many people he had seen. What weird backhouse feud haven't you seen? ”

"Your mother-in-law is also just a reminder to you, you know the way in your heart, and you know the way of filial piety in the second room. But you must not be an ignorant woman in the back house, do you know that you have the reputation of being the eldest son of a single long house. Later, when you have a child of your own, do you think about what your child will ask you? If you don't even know about the house, what else can you do outside? Erlang didn't say much, and this opening mentioned the issue of heirs.

"You're also a reader, and you have your own ambitions. Huifang's uncle is an official in Wupin, and Jue'er's husband is also an official of the imperial court. It's Jue'er herself, you must have heard of what books you read there. Dong Xiaoman mentioned this, and sure enough, he saw Xu Rui's eyes brighten: "I know this, my brother-in-law is said to be studying in the big academy." ”

"I heard a doctor in the academy say something before," Dong Xiaoman paused at this point. Xu Rui immediately made a deferential look, and Dong Xiaoman pulled the corners of his mouth: "It seems to be saying that if you don't sweep a house, how can you sweep the world." ”

Xu Rui immediately gave up his hand: "Today's words are better than ten years' books." The father-in-law and mother-in-law are really people who have experienced it, and they are well-informed to save the son-in-law from a disaster. Don't worry, I'll take care of the family's affairs. ”

Dong Xiaoman nodded with satisfaction: "You know Huifang's temperament better than us, she is the most soft and gentle." In the future, you will have to worry more about things at home, but fortunately, there are few people in your house. As long as you put your mind right, your small life will naturally be prosperous. ”

That's the end of this, and it happened that Huifang walked in with a smile.

Seeing this, Dong Xiaoman got up and said, "We're talking, why haven't you come back." It's not too early, you two hurry back home. I'm afraid the elders are still waiting! ”

Huifang didn't hear anything, Xu Rui pursed his lips and didn't speak.

returned to Xu's mansion, and sure enough, I saw the lights in the hall. The second uncle and second aunt sat on the main seat, and the brothers in the two rows below and the female dependents of the family seemed to be waiting for them to come home.

"Second uncle, second aunt." Xu Rui and his wife walked into the front hall and saluted the two elders.

"It's back, why don't you send someone back to let me know. We're still waiting for the two of you to eat, how did we finish eating at that end? Zhou sat in the position of Mrs. Xu's second hand, and said to the two with a smile.

"Let's go back to our room and change our clothes first, and then come back and talk later." Huifang pulled Xu Rui and whispered.

Second Mrs. Xu nodded when she heard this, and she let go of these two couples for the time being.

After returning to the room, Huifang personally untied Xu Rui's clothes and changed into regular clothes. While softly admonishing: "The second uncle and aunt are also kind, we came back a little late." After a while, we will divide the gifts among the people, and we can set the meal together. If everyone is unhappy and stabbed a few words, don't take it to heart. It's because it's your own family that you're like this, isn't it, if outsiders only pretend to say a few good words, they don't know what to say behind their backs. ”

Xu Rui nodded: "I know the way, don't take anything they say to your heart." I know all your sufferings. Everything will be fine, do you know? ”

Huifang nodded shyly: "From our province, we are now a family, and it is appropriate to understand each other." ”

Xu Rui's body was shocked, his eyes were hot, and his arms held Huifang in his arms. Hui Fangjiao snorted, and patted Xu Rui with a red face: "Let go, they are still waiting." ”

"Let me give me a hug!" Xu Rui hoarsely buried, his head buried deep in Huifang's neck socket. Until Mama Zhao coughed lightly outside the door: "Miss, it's not too early." ”

The two of them tidied up their clothes and went to the front hall together.

"Oops, why did you go for so long. Didn't the second brother whisper something to his younger siblings? Zhou pursed his lips and joked, and Huifang's faces were still the same.

"I just sorted out the gifts that my mother's family brought to you in my room, and I delayed your time." Huifang turned around with a smile and waved her hand, and the maids came in. Everyone was holding a variety of boxes, and everyone present had a happy look in their eyes.

Huifang sent the gifts to everyone one by one, and sat next to Xu Rui with a smile on her face.

The second lady touched the bracelet on her wrist, the color was as green as ink, but it was a good thing. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, this Zhao family is really wealthy. A return gift is so magnanimous, I don't know how rich the dowry is. But when I thought about Huifang's attitude, I couldn't help but have a cold face.

"We didn't wait for you two for so long. When you go out later, when you come back and give an order to your subordinates, so that the elders will not worry. The second lady reprimanded her face unhappily, and her eyes were cold.

Huifang bowed her head and said yes, before she could say anything. I saw the second lady get up and say to the second master: "It's not early, let's go back to the room to rest." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Xu Rui again, and asked with concern, "Did you use the rice?" ”

Xu Rui was a little unhappy: "Have you had dinner in the house?" Don't you eat at this time of the week? ”

The implication is that the two of them rushed back to eat with everyone, but they didn't expect that everyone had finished eating.

"Second brother, have you forgotten? Mother said yesterday that dinner should be eaten an hour earlier, which is good for health. Zhou replied with a smile, with a sneer on his face.

Xu Rui didn't have to look back at his new daughter-in-law, she knew that she must not know the way. Who would want to be disgraced without knowing it, let alone a new daughter-in-law who has just arrived.

Thinking of this, Xu Rui couldn't help but sneer: "The dinner time in the second room is advanced, but the long room is not." Mama Zhao notified the big kitchen to prepare for dinner. ”

Everyone's faces were different, and the second lady gritted her teeth and glared at Huifang, but asked Xu Rui, "What do you mean by this?" (To be continued......)
