Early the next morning, Dong Xiaoman was dressing up when he heard the maid report in a hurry. said that Granny Hua was dead, Dong Xiaoman and Erlang glanced at each other, hurriedly tidied up their clothes and hurriedly went to Granny Hua's room to have a look.

Pushing open the door, I saw Granny Hua dressed dignifiedly, lying calmly and peacefully on the bed. Huifang lay beside her and cried, and the two maids Ah Fu and Ah Xi stood beside her, looking at her with heavy faces.

Dong Xiaoman took a deep breath, stepped forward and asked sharply, "What the hell is going on?" Well, how did you die? ”

Erlang saw that Granny Hua looked serene, dressed decently, and after taking a closer look, he frowned and said, "Who gave the old lady the clothes?" ”

Ah Fu replied softly, "When I pushed the door in today, I saw the old lady lying on the bed dressed in new clothes. I put the food on the table, walked over and told her to ignore me. I felt something was wrong, so I walked over and touched my nose and found that I was out of breath. That's why Ruyi went to inform the valley owner and his wife! ‘

Huifang just lay there crying, looking sad and helpless. Ah Fu saw Dong Xiaoman's eyes fall on her, and immediately walked over and whispered in Dong Xiaoman's ear: "I went to find Miss Huifang, and Miss Huifang just got up when I went." It was natural to see me smile and smile, and I was surprised to hear me say that the old lady was gone. ”

After a while, the doctor was invited over panting, and Dong Xiaoman helped Huifang to wait next door. At this time, Huifang was just crying sadly, and not saying anything made Dong Xiaoman a little uncertain.

Over the years, I thought I was quite smart, but I was always misled by some people's careful thinking. Now she is not sure if this mother-in-law died on purpose and then took care of it. Although he is not short of that dowry. It's really uncomfortable to be calculated.

It didn't take much effort for Erlang to walk in. With a heavy face, she asked Huifang: "How old is the old lady this year?" ”

Huifang wiped her tears and said in a hoarse voice: "Seventy-five." ”

Dong Xiaoman was shocked. She just thinks that Granny Hua is just ugly and old. I didn't expect her to be so old, according to Huifang's age, it is not enough.

In this era, women give birth to babies at fifteen or sixteen, and Granny Hua is only sixty at most. Dong Xiaoman was surprised, but Erlang nodded knowingly.

Sitting opposite Dong Xiaoman, he sighed: "The doctor said that the old lady is old and her body is not very good. There is no external cause, it's just so old. ”

Dong Xiaoman didn't quite understand: "Then how can she still dress herself, can she expect her death?" ”

Erlang sighed: "There are many old people who can know that the end of the road has reached before they die, and there are many people who have instructed their families to prepare for the future. What's more, the old lady is not an ordinary person. She said those words yesterday, and she knew that she was going to ...... today."

Only then did Hui Fang raise her head and say blankly: "No wonder, no wonder." My mother-in-law rarely talks to me so much, but yesterday she called me over and said a lot. I was still surprised, but I didn't expect it...... Woo woo, I don't know if she's going to die, woo woo woo woo ......"

The more he talked, the more sad he became, and he actually lay on the old man and cried.

Dong Xiaoman felt very uncomfortable in his heart, maybe he shouldn't doubt them. But when people die, what else can they do?

The funeral of the old man was not lavish. Burial according to the custom here is the end of the matter.

It's a pity that the old man wanted Huifang to marry early, but he couldn't attend this wedding.

A few days after the old man's funeral. Someone came looking for it. This person actually said that he was Huifang's fiancé, so Dong Xiaoman was a little confused.

It turned out that Huifang once had a marriage contract, and this marriage contract was made by Huifang's father before his death. The man's father was supposed to be the man's uncle, because there was no son to take him to raise. Because the adoptive parents are gone, the marriage has been delayed for a long time, and now because of the matter of Granny Hua, it will be delayed for another year, and the man can't wait.

Dong Xiaoman was very angry when he heard this, we have to wait for not to marry when your parents die. Why is our old man gone, you are a little cautious again.

"I ask you, if you don't like this affair, then quit. We're looking for a good family for you, so you don't have to suffer from that. Dong Xiaoman was indignant and pulled Huifang, who had already lost a lot of weight, and said.

"Xu Gongzi is not a bad person, and he has no choice but to do it." Huifang smiled softly and explained for her fiancé: "His current Erniang is his biological mother, although there is no nurturing grace, in the end, it is also connected by flesh and blood." Erniang urged him to get married early, also for his good. Xu Gongzi's family is already very difficult, and I don't want to trouble him anymore. ”

Dong Xiaoman didn't understand: "Then what do you mean?" ”

Huifang said: "If their family can't wait, they will withdraw from the marriage." If you can wait, then wait until my filial piety period is over. ”

Xu Gongzi will never regret his marriage, and claims that he will wait for Huifang's filial piety period to pass. But his second mother was unwilling, and she had to get married after a hundred days after making trouble.

Huifang was naturally angry and annoyed, but unfortunately the wedding date last year was really three months later. After crying for a few days, Huifang simply agreed to this family affair.

Dong Xiaoman didn't expect Huifang to compromise so quickly, and hurriedly arranged for her to get married. originally thought that she had to buy a dowry for the girl, but who knew that Lu Dao Huifang said that her dowry had already been prepared.

At first, everyone didn't believe it, but after seeing it with their own eyes, they really realized how much Huifang's family loved her back then.

Let's just say that these ten jars of wine are said to have been made and hidden by his father when she was full moon. In order to wait until she gets married, she will give it to her daughter as a gift.

Dong Xiaoman prepared all kinds of jewelry for her, as well as fragmentary silver melon seeds, silver leaves and other items for rewarding.

On the day of marriage, an eight-lift sedan chair carried Huifang from the Xiaoyao Pavilion into Xu's house. People may not know about the Wandering Valley, but at least they know the Wandering Pavilion.

The bride is the goddaughter of the Xiaoyao Pavilion, and her mother's family has a big banquet in the Xiaoyao Pavilion, but everyone who comes is a guest, and the flowing water banquet is sent out as if she doesn't need money.

Xu Gongzi also gave Huifang enough face, and only went to worship after beating gongs and drums around the city.

After sending Huifang away, Dong Xiaoman was tired and couldn't stand up. muttered in my heart: Wait until you get married. I've got to be tired.

Jue'er and Wei'er went to the wedding as uncles. It is said that the preparation over there is fine. It's just that I didn't expect my mother's family to be so well prepared. The scene was so big. On the contrary, it seems that the in-laws are a little angry, but fortunately, the family is solid, and those who came to ask for money are also happily going back.

After sending off the guests, Second Mrs. Xu said to Second Master Xu with a drooping face and unhappiness: "All of a sudden, there are no more than a hundred taels of silver, and these poor people are pleasing candy at the door." ”

Xu Erye hammered his waist and sat down, sighed and said, "If you spend it, you can spend it, and earn face for Rui Ge'er." ”

"Phew! Hua Huifang didn't know where she climbed such a relative, they showed that they were rich, what did they do with us? "I thought that the little guy came to report that it was the flowing water seat of the Xiaoyao Pavilion, and it didn't cost money to send it out. Anyone who goes to congratulate will have something to eat before leaving, and can also give a small snack and other gifts.

I was sour and unhappy, thinking about what I had heard about the Xiaoyao Pavilion before, and pouted. A question suddenly came to mind in his heart, and he quickly got up and walked out with a grin.

Second Master Xu has been a husband and wife with her for a lifetime, how can you not know what kind of expression the old wife of Lu Dao is?

He muttered in the back: "Don't make trouble and embarrass your son!" ”

Second Mrs. Xu led the girl into the new courtyard, and saw that the lights had been turned off inside. couldn't help pouting, and happened to see the bridal girl Qingmei. Hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Are they all resting?" ”

Qingmei was quite surprised to see the second lady at this time, and hurriedly bent her knees and said, "The masters have all rested." ”

The second lady rolled her eyes and said, "Then you take me to the wing, and I'll take a look at the dowry of my daughter-in-law." ”

Qingmei knew about the relationship between the Xu family, but the second lady said what her daughter-in-law said so aggressively. Isn't it a bit too much. Besides, on the first day of the new daughter-in-law's passage, she has to open the box to see the dowry?

"Ma'am. The slave and maid have no key to the chamber. As soon as Qingmei said this, the second lady had to pout and leave unwillingly.

Early the next morning, when Huifang was washing and dressing up, he quietly told her about last night.

Huifang frowned, said nothing, smiled and followed Xu Rui to the main room.

This morning, I want to have a tea salute, and the big guys are waiting for the new daughter-in-law.

But Xu Rui took Huifang to the ancestral hall and kowtowed to the elders on the tablet before preparing to go over.

On the way, Xu Rui whispered to Huifang: "Although my father and mother are not my biological parents, they treated me very well before their deaths. ”

Huifang nodded obediently: "You did the right thing, presumably the second uncle and second aunt will be very pleased." ”

Xu Rui just smiled and didn't answer, and when he entered the lobby, Huifang really saw that the two people above had unsightly faces, especially the second aunt.

The husband and wife both knelt on the ground, and Xu Erye was fine: "It's right for you to give tea to your eldest brother and sister-in-law, after all, you are nominally from the long house." ”

gave Huifang a jade ruyi and a red envelope, drank tea and said some auspicious words.

When she arrived at Second Mrs. Xu, it was not like this, she first touched her hands without looking at Huifang's side to sort out her clothes.

After a while, I suddenly saw Huifang still holding a teacup, and said with a smile: "I thought it was over, but I didn't want to forget the bride." ”

Holding the teacup without speaking, he blew the tea vigorously: "Who made this tea?" Why are you so ignorant of the rules? It's also a little too hot. ”

Xu Rui frowned and looked at his wife who was kneeling on the ground, and couldn't help but wanted to speak, but was blocked by Huifang's look.

After Mrs. Xu drank the tea slowly, she began to babble a lot. The last thing is that Xu Erye really thinks it's not good-looking, so he reminded him and stopped his mouth unhappily.

The maid took the meeting gift, and it was actually a pair of hairpins, a female ring and a red envelope.

"You don't come from a good background, and you haven't learned anything from your grandmother all day. Your godfather and godmother are just outsiders, and I'm afraid they haven't read any books. You can learn more from your sisters-in-law at home in the future, and you won't be able to take care of the house. As soon as these words came out, Huifang's face suddenly became not very good-looking.

However, she knew that this was not the time to have a seizure, and she couldn't get up if she knelt for too long.

The maid Qingmei came over to help her stand up, and Huifang deliberately walked to the seat step by step with soft legs and trembling feet. Although he didn't say anything in his mouth, the painful expression really gave the second lady a slap.

"What do you mean? You're pretending to be like this to say I'm bullying you? You're a gardener, and you're scared of working all day (to be continued......)
