Chapter 92
However, what kind of person Miss Cai is has little to do with Shu Manyao. After the ceremony, Shu Manyao had to be busy with more things - the little brother's first birthday banquet and the old lady's birthday.
Although the little brother wants to keep filial piety for the Xu family, this first birthday banquet cannot be made up. The old lady is an elder, and she doesn't have to keep filial piety for the Xu family, so this birthday banquet is naturally going to be held. Even if it is for the sake of Shu Zheming and Shu Manjin Shu Manyu, neither of these things can be done in a big way, only relatives and friends are invited, then it must be done.
The most important thing is that the second uncle and the second aunt have finally returned to the capital, and it can be regarded as a reunion.
The second uncle's appearance is five points similar to the eldest uncle, but it is more elegant, and the temperament is closer to Shu Chengye, and the second uncle is a very gentle woman, not very talkative, and the smile on her face is very sincere.
The second cousin Chen Huakun and the third cousin Chen Huanan are still young and very lively.
The old lady has been getting more and more energetic day by day since Shu Manyao's salute, and now she took the hand of the second aunt and said with a smile: "It's good that you guys are back, you have all the things at home, right?" If you lack anything, just come and ask me, but your sister-in-law has always been a compromise, and I think she is ready. ”
The second aunt nodded and said with a smile: "I have seen that my sister-in-law has arranged the yard very well, almost exactly the same as our one over there." I also want to thank my aunt for taking care of Xue Rong during this time, that child was too naughty and didn't cause trouble for my aunt, right? ”
Chen Xuerong pouted on the side and retorted: "I'm so well-behaved, how can I get into trouble?" I went to a lot of places with my aunt and grandmother, we also went to incense, we went to temple fairs, and we also bought food on the street. ”
said, and showed the purse given to her by Shu Manyao: "Look, this is given to me by my eldest cousin, it's beautiful, right?" The eldest cousin's needlework is really good, it looks better than what you do, and I also have a handkerchief, embroidered with snowflakes, which is particularly beautiful. ”
The second aunt's attention shifted to Shu Manyao again, and she looked at it for a while before she smiled: "Man Yao has grown so big, in my memory, Man Yao is so old, her temperament is very soft, and she likes to be tired of being around her aunt, and everyone laughs when she hugs her, at that time I still thought that Man Yao must be a very likable person when she grows up, and her temperament has become calmer at this time, but it is also a good thing to be calm, girls, after all, they are going to get married, and it is more pleasing to be calm." ”
A lively temperament is to please the family, and a calm temperament is to please the mother-in-law's family. If your own children are hurt, they will cry and make trouble, and if you marry someone else's family, you will not have a chance to cry.
"The second aunt and grandmother said the same," Shu Manyao pursed her lips and smiled: "However, I am still early to get married, and I don't want to get married in my life, so I only stay at home and take care of my grandmother and father." ”
The old lady pretended to be angry: "The girl's family, why did she say these things herself?" Don't let people hear it, you're not ashamed to laugh! ”
"The second aunt is not an outsider." Shu Manyao said while peeling the orange slowly, carefully tearing off the white silk on it, and then handed it to the second aunt Yang Wanqing: "Second aunt and mother try it, this is our own planting on the Zhuangzi, although it is not as good as the sugar oranges in Guangning, but it is also very delicious, the Zhuangzi just sent two baskets, and I will let someone send you a basket later, don't dislike the second aunt." ”
The second aunt took the orange, turned her head and smiled at the old lady: "A few years ago, you wrote to me, saying that you were worried about Manyao's temperament, but now I look, aunt, are you too worried?" Man Yao has a very good temperament, gentle and supple, very dignified and virtuous, and most importantly, smart and intelligent, so aunt, are you still not satisfied? ”
The old lady's smiling eyes narrowed: "It's just that it's a little better over the years, and it used to ...... Ahem, by the way, what about Man Jin and Man Yu? You didn't let people call them? ”
Shu Manyao hurriedly got up and said: "I sent someone over, but the second sister and the third sister were probably nervous, and just now a maid came over and asked me what clothes I was going to wear, why don't I go over and take a look?" ”
The old lady answered, and Shu Manyao got up to find Shu Manjin and Shu Manyu. The old lady sighed and whispered to Yang Wanqing: "You don't know, I was sad in those years, I chanted the scriptures and worshiped the Buddha every day, and I begged the Buddha to bless her and let her open her mind as soon as possible, but I didn't expect that a serious illness made her understand." By the way, Hualiang's marriage, have you decided? The girl of the Cai family, have you already seen it? ”
This was Bai Wanwan, who turned her head and asked, Bai Wanwan was a little embarrassed, even Yang Wanqing was a little surprised, she knew a little about the decision of her eldest brother and sister-in-law before, why was Hua Liang about to get engaged in a blink of an eye? Where did the girl from the Cai family come from?
Although Bai Wanwan was embarrassed, when the matter came to this point, there was nothing to hide, so she smiled and nodded: "I have seen the girl of the Cai family, she is very docile and sensible, and besides, she can talk about it with Hua Liang." In the end, in the end, everyone is watching, if we don't settle down, Hua Liang will have no responsibility, and the girl's reputation will be ruined. ”
"Although the lintel of the Cai family is not high, it is better to be innocent." Bai Wanwan analyzed the pros and cons of each other: "Now that Jianming has just recovered, he is just a five-grade official, if the woman's family is too high, I am afraid that there will be suspicion of stammering with Haode, which will be very unfavorable to Hualiang's spring next year." The door is too low, and I am afraid that the girl's upbringing is not good, this Cai sacrificial wine can be regarded as the right one. ”
"This Miss Cai, has my sister-in-law seen it?" Yang Wanqing asked, Bai Wanwan nodded, Shu Manyao listened outside for a while, waved her hand to signal Jin Ling and the others not to be angry, and then took Xia Xi to Shu Manjin's courtyard.
Shu Manjin was losing his temper: "I'm not going!" Why pass! That's not my uncle! It's just a mud leg coming out of the mountains, why do you want me to go over and stutter? She Shu Manyao thinks it's quite beautiful, so I won't give her this face! ”
"Second sister, do you think that my uncle is not your uncle?" Shu Manyao entered the door with a smile, and the maid who was originally standing in the corner trembled, and her head hung lower. These maids were all replaced later, and the people personally selected by the old lady were honest and responsible. It's just that Shu Manjin and Shu Manyu looked at it, but they were all stupid.
"What are you doing here?" Shu Manjin saw that the maid was about to shrink into a ball, and his heart was even more angry, and his tone was even worse. Shu Manyao sat down on the soft couch in front of herself, and looked at Shu Manjin with a smile: "I just want to spread what you just said, and I don't know what the people who hear it will think." ”
Shu Manjin sneered: "If you go and pass it on, can anyone prove that I said what I said just now?" ”
"Unexpectedly, the second sister is smart." Shu Manyao was slightly surprised, the original Shu Manjin was smart and calm, dignified and generous, and now he has learned to be a scoundrel, which is really unexpected.
"That is, don't think you're the only smart person in this world." Shu Manjin sneered, and Shu Manyao nodded: "That's right, but since you are a smart person, you don't need me to teach you what to do, right?" ”
Shu Manjin's face immediately sank: "I'm not feeling well......"
Before she finished speaking, Shu Manyao nodded: "Okay, I know, then you can rest, and I'll ask Dr. Li to come and take a look at you in a while." Shu Manyao had a smile on her face, and anyone could tell that she was in a good mood: "It just so happens that I don't really want to see you at the table." ”
The Chen family is his uncle's family, and he has nothing to do with Shu Manjin and Shu Manyu, so why let them come out as an eyesore?
With that, Shu Manyao got up and walked out, stopped halfway through and said, "I hope Manyu can be as smart as you, and I'm not feeling well today." ”
Shu Manjin's face was called a good-looking, and he wanted to save Shu Manyao's face, but now it is difficult for him to ride a tiger, so he really doesn't go, and the words before don't need to be passed on by Shu Manyao at all.
"If you don't let me go, I'll go!" Seeing that Shu Manyao was about to walk out of the yard, Shu Manjin shouted stiffly, and reprimanded his maid: "Why don't you get me clothes soon?" Don't be like that! I'm still in the filial piety period, what are you doing wearing so brightly? The Chen family is not a big person, are you afraid that I will collide? ”
Shu Manyao shook his head, after all, he hadn't grown up yet. Hmm, compared with Shu Manjin in his previous life, this scheming, this patience, is not a little worse. Well, I still underestimated the impact of Xu's death on her.
Shu Manyu solved it better, Shu Manjin cares about reputation, will weigh gains and losses, and choose the path that is beneficial to him. And Shu Manyu is now an artillery, the kind that is just a little bit on. Shu Manyao just said a few words, and he provoked people to go.
As for Shu Zheming, he was even more well-behaved, he was called back by Shu Chengye early in the morning, and he was talking to Chen Huanan and them at this time.
When Shu Manyao entered the house, she saw Chen Xuerong covering her mouth and leaning on Yang Wanqing's body with a smile, and when she saw her, she hurriedly got up and grabbed her and asked, "Cousin, do you remember the incident I told you about the Miss Li family last time?" That's how she ......"
Chen Xuerong raised her hands in front of her chest, looked panicked, screaming and jumping: "Oops, snake!" There are snakes! Come on, come on, ......" like that, it's very funny, everyone around laughs, and the second aunt reached out and slapped Chen Xuerong on the back: "That's how I usually teach you?" Gossiping behind people's backs, where did you learn the problem? ”
Because there are many people and the second aunt is also measured, Chen Xuerong only pouted and touched her juniors, admitted her mistake in a low voice, and said: "That Miss Cousin is really unlikable, Sister Shu and I don't like it, she made a snake herself to scare us, but it was self-defeating, mother, you still don't allow me to laugh?" Besides, there are no outsiders here, and if there were, I wouldn't say it. ”
The old lady was taken aback: "Did she scare you with that snake?" ”
Chen Xuerong saw that she had leaked her mouth, stuck out her tongue and didn't say anything, Shu Manyao hurriedly explained: "It's just a misunderstanding, Miss Biao probably wants to marry the prince, so she looks at other girls unpleasantly, last time we went to play with Baoying, the prince sent someone to send some melons and fruits over, and Miss Cousin misunderstood, and let people get a snake to tease us, fortunately, Baoying reacted quickly and threw the box containing the snake directly to Miss Watch." ”
