Chapter 125

When Mrs. Wang arrived in the capital, Yang Jianbai had not yet gone down to the court, Shu Manyao instructed the maid to go to the city gate to greet her, and she was waiting at the second gate. Let's go have a cup of tea first, the husband can think about you, early in the morning I ordered the kitchen to prepare chicken soup on the stove, you will use some first, such a long journey, must be tired and hungry. ”

"Don't be tired, don't be tired, don't be busy, Jianbai is not at home at this time?" Mrs. Wang smiled and patted Shu Manyao's hand and asked, Shu Manyao nodded: "The dynasty has not dispersed yet, but it was almost this time in the past, aunt wait a while, it is estimated that she will be back in a while, aunt, how is Sister Wang?" ”

Mrs. Wang smiled more kindly: "In the end, the two of you have a good relationship, I have to ask when we first meet, she is okay, but some time ago, I just had a body, and it is not suitable for long-distance travel, so I didn't let her come over, but she also remembered you as a sister, and asked me to bring you a lot of things back, as well as your favorite dim sum, ouch, I said, this capital, how could there be a dim sum shop missing, she had to say, what is made in Beijing and what Jiangnan makes is not the same taste, so I have to let it go, I was afraid that the road would be bad, so I couldn't tell her, so I simply brought a cook from Jiangnan over. ”

Shu Manyao was overjoyed: "Really? My aunt and sister Wang still love me, knowing that I just like to eat Jiangnan dim sum food, I grew up in Jiangnan since I was a child, this time in Beijing, my grandmother and father both like the food in Beijing, I am worried about Jiangnan side of dim sum. ”

Mrs. Wang's smile was a little more sincere: "It's good if you like it, I'm afraid you don't like it, your sister Wang also wrote a letter to you, you will see later, and let me ask you if you have been lazy over the years, this calligraphy and painting have a little effort." ”

"Or Sister Wang knows me, when I just returned to the capital, I really couldn't calm down to practice calligraphy and painting, however, these two years have been picked up again, some time ago, as soon as I heard my husband say that Aunt you want to enter Beijing, I knew that Sister Wang must be asking this, so ah, I have been prepared."

Shu Manyao smiled and talked to Mrs. Wang, and entered the courtyard, the maids were very eye-catching, the dim sum that should be served as a snack, the hot soup that should be served as a hot soup, a group of people brought by Mrs. Wang, should be placed properly.

Mrs. Wang definitely didn't enter Beijing alone, and after drinking two sips of soup, Mrs. Wang spoke: "This time I entered Beijing, and your cousin also came over." ”

Since Shu Manyao is married to Yang Jianbai, then Mrs. Wang's son is called Yang Jianbai as a cousin, so naturally he will also call Shu Manyao a cousin. Shu Manyao thought about it for a while and remembered: "My cousin has also entered Beijing?" Then why wasn't you with your aunt? ”

"I've brought some stuff here, he's taking care of it, and he'll be here in a while." Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry to clean up the yard, the Wang family also has a yard in the capital, and it's not far from here, he cleaned up over there, I'll go over and live, and you don't have to trouble here." ”

"What's the trouble? My aunt lives here, and my husband and I don't know how happy we are. Shu Manyao hurriedly took Mrs. Wang's hand: "Aunt should be distressed and distressed for us, Xianggong is a foreigner, only my aunt is still very fond of me and Xianggong, in my heart and Xianggong, my aunt is our elder, the elder has entered Beijing, where can I live outside?" I have to live in my own home, and my aunt has to give us a chance to do my filial piety with my husband. ”

Shu Manyao said sincerely, but Mrs. Wang waved her hand and said: "I know that you two are filial, and you are also very kind, but ah, I really can't live here, not to mention that you have just gotten married, what's the matter with me, who is an aunt, living in?" When the time comes, the Yang family will definitely say a lot, it is all a group of people with brain problems, let's not look for this bad luck. Second, I have another thing to do when I enter Beijing this time, it is also a little inconvenient to live in your house, you can rest assured, I know that you and Jianbai have a heart, don't worry, one day I will come to trouble you husband and wife, and I will live until you don't want to see me before leaving. ”

"Look at what my aunt said, even if my aunt lives here for a lifetime, Jianbai and I will only be happy, where will we dislike it?" Shu Manyao hurriedly said, and was polite again, Mrs. Wang just agreed to live in the Yang family for two or three days, because the Wang family's house has not been occupied for a long time, so she has to clean it up, Shu Manyao had to regret a few words: "Since my aunt is not willing to live here, then my aunt can't forget me and Jianbai, and Jianbai and I will go to visit my aunt when we are free, and my aunt can't turn us away." ”

"Look at you girl, this married, it's really different, I used to look at you very shy, but now when I talk about it, it's really neat." Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "Jianbai is my nephew, where can I keep you two out?" Don't do that, I thought you were playing tricks. ”

Shu Manyao hurriedly held her face: "Oh, aunt saw it?" I'm really coquettish, if my aunt can be grinded by me and willing to stay for a few more days, I must be eager to be coquettish in front of my aunt every day. ”

As he spoke, he saw the little maid come in: "The master and the young master have come over together." ”

This young master is naturally talking about the young man of the Wang family, Wang Shumin's younger brother.

Shu Manyao was a little surprised, and Mrs. Wang was also a little surprised: "How did the two of them meet together?" Speaking of which, these two brothers are too fateful, it's not the same road, they can still meet together. ”

Yang Jianbai opened the curtain and replied with a smile: "It's not a family, don't enter a family, my cousin and I are also brothers, so naturally we can meet together, aunt, I didn't pick you up before, don't be surprised." ”

Mrs. Wang smiled and took his hand: "You kid, why are you talking so politely?" The last dynasty is important, besides, it's not that I don't know the road, there are people sent by Manyao who are waiting, and I was picked up as soon as I arrived at the city gate, what are you worried about? Come on, come on, this is your cousin Qingheng, Qingheng, hurry up and give your cousin and sister-in-law a gift. ”

Wang Qingheng is seventeen years old this year, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, very similar to Wang Shumin, he is also literate, he stepped forward and saluted, and called people respectfully, Yang Jianbai was very generous and gave a jade pendant, Shu Manyao also prepared a meeting gift before, a jade peace lock.

After seeing the ceremony here, Wang Qingheng stuffed a gift slip for Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang stuffed it to Shu Manyao: "You two got married, I didn't have time to be there at the time, this is my intention, you take it, if there is anything in the future, just tell me, if you can help, my aunt will definitely help." My cousin is left with Jianbai, a lone seedling, and I have to take care of the two of you husband and wife, and I will be underground in the future before I can explain to my cousin. ”

Speaking of his deceased mother, Yang Jianbai's eyes were also a little red, and Shu Manyao hurriedly smiled and responded: "Auntie, we will definitely not be polite to my aunt, aunt, don't worry, no matter if there is anything or not, Jianbai and I will disturb you." By the way, my aunt said before that there was something to do in the capital, I don't know what it was, and it was inconvenient for my aunt to say, if there was anything important, Jianbai and I might be able to help. ”

Mrs. Wang suddenly laughed: "It's not a big deal, I originally waited for the Mid-Autumn Festival to talk about it, but taking advantage of the wedding of the two of you this time, since I came to the capital, I simply handled this matter together." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Wang Qingheng, Wang Qingheng's face was slightly red and a little cramped. Mrs. Wang continued: "Qing Heng had a family affair when he was a child, he was the eldest daughter of Lord Cai's family, Lord Cai was originally an official in Jiangnan, and later promoted to an official in Beijing, it has been more than ten years, and Qing Heng is not young, so I want to visit the Li family to see if I can set this marriage date." ”

"Lord Cai? Cai sacrifice wine Cai Tongzhou Cai Lord? Yang Jianbai thought for a while before asking, there are not many officials surnamed Cai in the court, he has been an official in Jiangnan, and later became an official in Beijing, so this candidate is even more obvious.

Mrs. Wang nodded and smiled: "Yes, it's called Cai Tongzhou, what's the matter, Jianbai has a relationship with this Lord Cai?" ”

Yang Jianbai and Shu Manyao glanced at each other, and the expressions of both of them were a little unpleasant. The matter of the eldest girl of the Cai family, Shu Manyao has heard of it, the eldest daughter left by the original partner, I heard that she is brutal and vicious, and she is eager to get rid of the daughter born by her stepmother, she is very arrogant and domineering, and her reputation can be said to be bad at home.

The second girl of the Cai family has already been engaged to Chen Hualiang, what is the matter with the family matter that my aunt is talking about now?

"What, what's wrong with this Lord Cai?" Mrs. Wang is such a shrewd person, as soon as she saw that the faces of the husband and wife were a little unsightly, she immediately guessed that there was something wrong with the Cai family, and hurriedly asked: "Or is there something wrong with the eldest girl of the Cai family?" ”

If it's just that the Cai family has a problem, Miss Cai is still a haode, and there is no problem with this family business. Their Wang family is not the kind of person who dislikes the poor and loves the rich, let alone the kind of person who tends to be inflammatory, and dislikes Miss Cai or something when they see that the Cai family has no power. She pays more attention to the girl's character, this daughter-in-law is a haode herself, even if she is from a poor family, she will never dislike it.

Shu Manyao was a little hesitant, and seeing that Mrs. Wang was anxious, she hurriedly asked, "Auntie, are you sure that she is the eldest girl of the Cai family?" The big girl who was left behind? ”

Mrs. Wang nodded: "Yes, the mother of the eldest girl of the Cai family is a very gentle and graceful person, Lord Cai loves the pair of children left by Mrs. Cai very much, and I also know about the continuation of the string later, but with Lord Cai's temperament, I will not let this Mrs. Cai treat the eldest girl and the eldest son of the Cai family badly, you are like this, but what is wrong with the eldest girl Cai?" Or is there something wrong with that continuation? "Auntie, don't worry, I'll tell you slowly, there's a problem, to be honest, I can't tell which one it is." Shu Manyao smiled bitterly, on one side is Yang Jianbai's aunt, and on the other side is his aunt, if this matter is really not good, I am afraid that the Wang family and the Chen family will hurt the harmony, she and Yang Jianbai have just become married, if the relatives on both sides immediately make such a dirty scene, it is really too disturbing.
