The wedding banquet of the Yang family had a beautiful beginning, but it continued to have a tragic ending. The worship of heaven and earth had just begun, and before even the first worship was completed, Yang Gongzi took off the groom's dress and changed his armor, and rode away in the cry of the bride who was choked up.

Of course, Shu Manyao couldn't see this, she just pieced together a scene by herself according to the comments of the maids. This kind of thing happened to the Yang family, and the wedding banquet naturally couldn't be held, but fortunately, this wedding banquet was also eaten, and everyone said goodbye.

The old lady of the Yang family was about to be stimulated, and only said that she was a little uncomfortable, and it was the second lady of the second room of the Yang family who came forward to send off the guests. This one is a hearty and enthusiastic, and he gave everyone a lot of daoqian, saying that the hospitality was not good, and he was very unhappy. The Shu family and the Yang family didn't move around before, and they only said a few polite words at this time, and then got into the carriage and left.

"Grandmother, the bride is so pitiful." Shu Manjin leaned next to the old lady, sighed and said, "The border is urgent, Yang Gongzi is going...... The bride just entered the door, and she didn't even serve her in-laws for tea. ”

"It's not necessarily a bad thing." Shu Manyu whispered on the side: "I haven't even been able to worship heaven and earth, and I haven't ...... cough, this marriage is not considered a success, if the bride's family feels sorry for the bride, and Ming'er will take someone back, this marriage will not be completed. ”

If the bride's family did not take people back, but let the bride stay in the Yang family, even if the wedding did not take place, the marriage would be considered completed. When Yang Jianbai comes back in the future, he will have to recognize this lady.

The old lady waved her hand: "Okay, this is all a matter of the Yang family, and it has nothing to do with us, whether the bride wants to stay in the Yang family, will the Yang family agree to let the bride take back at that time, this matter is in trouble." ”

The Yang family didn't pay nothing to marry this daughter-in-law, and besides, if the bride left the Yang family, Yang Gongzi's future marriage would be difficult, and even if the old lady of the Yang family didn't love her grandson, she wouldn't watch her grandson's reputation deteriorate.

After returning to Shu's house, Xu saw that the old lady was still in good spirits, so he smiled and mentioned the housekeeper's matter: "I thought, after the New Year, it is time for Manjin and Manyu to learn the rules, mother, do I take Manjin and Manyu with me?" ”

The old lady leaned back on the soft couch with her eyes closed, and did not say a word. Xu Shi was a little restless, she was thinking about taking her time before, and when the old lady personally opened her mouth to give her the housekeeping rights, what she gave was not the same as what she wanted to come over, but it was not the same at all.

However, the nurse reminded her before - the Chen family is about to come, if the housekeeping power is not in her hands at that time, I am afraid that Shu Manyao will jump out of the palm of her hand, and the large amount of dowry......

This is something she will never allow to happen, she has been planning for so many years, how can she watch Shu Manyao marry a good family with a large dowry? Those things must be for yourself and your children!

Therefore, the Xu family must ask for the stewardship in advance, clean up the manpower that Shu Manyao had buried in the mansion in advance, and then replace their own. Then, he pinched the movements of the Chen family in his hands.

"Man Yao has almost learned?" The old lady thought for a long time before asking, Xu nodded slowly: "Man Yao was originally very smart, and her mother also taught Man Yao a lot, but Man Yao just lacked practical experience, and now even if it is another year, Man Yao herself can cope with it, and there will be no mistakes." ”

Shu Manyao smiled shyly, stretched out his hand and hugged the old lady's arm coquettishly: "It's still good to be taught by grandmother, and Mother Li has also helped me a lot, grandmother, you can remember to reward Mother Li later." ”

The old lady nodded with a smile: "Okay, it is indispensable to Mother Li's credit." ”

Mother Li hurriedly smiled and stepped forward to salute: "The old lady is ashamed of the slave maid, the slave maid just replied to the eldest girl's few questions, it is really not a help, it is still taught by the old lady well, and the eldest girl herself is smart, the old slave does not dare to take credit at all, the old lady said so, hey, the old slave's face has no place to put it." ”

The old lady couldn't help laughing, and turned her head to look at Xu's again: "Since Manyao, the housekeeper, has learned almost, when you get to Manjin Manyu, let Manyao take them, you are not in good health, so you can rest at home." ”

Xu Shi felt that his head was struck by a thunderbolt, and his face almost changed, after so many years, he hurriedly said: "How can this work, Manyao is not very old, she is just a housekeeper, she has other things to do, I'm afraid she doesn't have the energy." Besides, isn't it only in the past few years that the little girl's family can quietly do whatever she wants? When you go out later, you don't want to take care of the house, so you have to take care of it. Doesn't Man Yao still learn this calligraphy and painting? If you go to the housekeeper again, how can you arrange this time? ”

It's probably too panicked, Xu Shi said a little confused: "You can't let Man Yao get tired, Man Yao was still a little unhealthy in the first two years, and it only got better last year, if you are tired, in case you ...... again"

The old lady only listened to Xu's words with a calm face, Xu said it, gradually sorted out her thoughts, and then said that there was logic: "Besides, this girl's family, when she was in her mother's house, she learned to be a housekeeper to read the accounts, which is normal, but if it is a girl's housekeeper, if it is passed out, I am afraid that it will not be good for Manyao's reputation." ”

Unless there are no female elders in the family, no girl will take the place of the elders. To put it mildly, that's so strong, and to put it seriously, it's to want to master the mother's family.

Shu Manyao can manage the house for a year or two in the name of learning, but if she wants to manage it for more than three years, she either doesn't want to be famous, or she continues to borrow the name of learning. The former is not good, the latter is not good, I haven't learned it for three years, it's just stupid, who would want such a daughter-in-law?

Therefore, either Shu Manyao unloaded the housekeeper's errand, or the old lady took over. If neither is possible, the stewardship can only be handed over to the Xu family.

"You're overthinking." After Xu Shi said nearly two pillars of incense, the old lady sighed and said: "Although the housekeeper of Man Yao is a little unjustifiable, but you are not in good health, and Man Yao is also in a filial piety. ”

The old lady looked at Xu Shi coldly: "Besides, and I look at it from above, Man Yao is just a helper, and it won't be as serious as you said." ”

"Mother, my body is very ......" Xu Shi smiled busily, and the old lady waved her hand: "You don't have to hold on in front of me, I said that your body is not good, your body is not very good, you just go back and recuperate." If you want me to say, your life is much better than my wife, and my wife just wants a girl to help. ”

The old lady picked the corner of her mouth: "It's good for you, your mother-in-law will help, and your daughter-in-law will take care of you, and then your daughter-in-law will take over, you, this is really a blessed life, you have to cherish it." ”

Xu Shi was about to speak, but he saw that the old lady's eyes were cold, and her face was a little sneering, and she didn't know what was going on, and her heart was cold, and she didn't dare to say the rest of the words.

This is the capital, the ancestral home of the Shu family, and the place that the old lady is most familiar with, and she, in addition to the three children of the Shu family, has only one nurse who can give advice, and she doesn't even have a backer.

If the old lady really made her "sick" in the future, I'm afraid she won't be able to resist, right?

"What my mother said is that I suddenly felt a little dizzy." Xu is a smart person, no matter how important the stewardship is, there is nothing left when a person dies. And the old lady has already expressed her attitude, no matter how much she says, the old lady will not change her mind, it is better to follow the old lady now, secretly, and then think of other ways.

Xu's face was pale, and he looked bad because of the old lady's refusal before, so he didn't even need to pretend at this time: "It's still thoughtful, my mother is so considerate and cares about her daughter-in-law, and her daughter-in-law is really ...... It's really unrequited, and the daughter-in-law will definitely be more filial to her mother in the future. ”

The old lady showed a smile on her face, and nodded in response: "You are very filial on weekdays, and seeing that the weather is also getting warmer, it is suitable for recuperation, you should pay more attention." ”

Xu's heart is aggrieved, even if she knows the current affairs and gives up the housekeeping rights, but after all, this is the foundation of her foothold in the Shu family, related to her status in the Shu family, and what she has been thinking about for a few years, where can she say give up if she gives up?

Looking at the few people next to him, Shu Manyao smiled, in Xu's opinion, that smile was smug and mocking, proud of his status in the Shu family, and mocking Xu's incompetence, the fire in Xu's heart rushed up, and Xu's face was red, and even his eyes were red.

"Mother, since my daughter-in-law is going to recuperate, this housekeeper's business is untouchable." Xu Shi was angry and hateful in his heart, and suddenly saw Wang Yueniang who was standing on the side, and a thought came to him: "It's just that this recuperation is just eating, sleeping and sleeping every day, you also know that the daughter-in-law is a layman, she doesn't understand anything about reading and writing, and she will look at the account book." ”

The old lady didn't understand what Xu meant, and only nodded slightly.

Xu Shi covered the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, and sighed: "Although this is to recuperate, but the days are too boring, this person, once he is busy and idle, he will get sick." So the daughter-in-law wondered if she had to find something to do. ”

"What do you want to do?" The smile on the old lady's face also disappeared, and Xu glanced at Aunt Wang with a smile: "Mother, the daughter-in-law was very busy with Manyao because she was very busy with her before she was a housekeeper, and since the daughter-in-law will not have to be a housekeeper in the future, this matter cannot be delayed." ”

Wang Yueniang next to her saw Xu's eyes, and a feeling of unhappiness rose in her heart, but before she could think of a way to deal with it, she listened to Xu's continue: "As the mother of the Shu family and the wife of the master, the children of the Shu family should call me a mother, and I must treat all the children of my husband as a few." Aunt Wang gave birth to a child before, so I thought about taking the child to my side and raising it. "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely treat my little brother as my own." Xu said with a smile, putting the child next to his mother-in-law is something that no one can refuse, even if it is an old lady, she can't say no.
