Chapter 392: Old Madam Cui's thoughts

Fang Juniang smiled: "I know you're amazing, but can you calm down and teach those children tirelessly?" Maybe you won't be able to last even half a day, and then run out to play, am I right? ”

Cui Ying'er was speechless by Fang Juniang's words, she is indeed an impatient woman, she acts in a hurry, and she comes and goes quickly.

Mrs. Cui began to teach her daughter: "Ying'er, you better not go, you will get married in a few days, and you can't go out and run around." You have been staying at home for the past few days, cultivating yourself well, and preparing a dowry by the way, have you heard? ”

Cui Ying'er's face became ugly, so she had to nod helplessly, muttering in a low voice.

Old Madam Cui said to Jiang Wuniang: "Wuniang, you will be their sister-in-law in the future." As the saying goes: 'The eldest brother is the father, and the eldest sister-in-law is the mother.' You are the leader of their brothers and sisters. In the future, you will show the majesty of your eldest sister-in-law and restrain these younger brothers and sisters. Especially Du Dalei, Na Zhe, as well as Qi Jiuniang and Ying'er. None of them are fuel-efficient lamps. Zhao Zizhong and Wei Hongye are busy with affairs, and my family is often away from home and running outside. You're going to have to restrain these unsuccessful guys for them, you see? ”

Jiang Wuniang had no choice but to stand up and respectfully agreed.

Qi Jiuniang and Cui Ying'er stared wide-eyed, and no one dared to say anything.

Cui Ying'er pursed her mouth and pulled the dishes in front of her unhappily.

Qi Jiuniang lowered her head and took a small bite of the noodles in the bowl. The other women didn't speak, they all ate silently.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little solemn, Mrs. Cui wanted to ease up. She picked up a piece of chicken, put it in Xia Rongniang's bowl, and said with a pleasant face: "Rong Niang, you eat more, this chicken is fed by my own hands, and it tastes very good." You're about to give birth, and you have to make up for it. ”

Xia Rongniang thanked the old lady and took a small bite.

Old Madam Cui noticed that Qin Wanlan, who was next to Fang Juniang, kept giving Fang Juniang and Fu Hongyu next to her vegetables, but she didn't eat much.

Hey, Mrs. Cui sighed in her heart. This Qin Xiaolan is the most beautiful one among these women. But she acted so carefully, for fear that others would not treat her, she was really a woman of pity.

Old Madam Cui thought about it, beckoned a maid over, and whispered a few words in her ear.

The maid nodded in agreement and walked towards the old lady's bedroom. After a while, he came back with a lacquer box.

The maid walked up to the old lady and bowed down to open the lacquer box.

Instantly, the room lit up, and a piece of jewels emanated from the lacquer box, which contained various colored jewelry.

"Ahh Qi Jiuniang, who had some big nerves, exclaimed, and then immediately blocked her mouth.

The other women were also a little uneasy, and everyone stared at these precious jewelry. Only Fu Hongyu didn't seem to see anything, still eating a prawn in the bowl in small bites.

Old Madam Cui secretly thought to herself that this Fu Hongyu was indeed different from other women, and it seemed that she would be a figure who could do great things in the future.

Mrs. Cui said happily: "These jewelry are all things worn by the old man when he was young. I've wanted to give these gadgets to you sisters for a long time. You are all young and beautiful, and if you wear these jewelry, you will be able to get married. ”

Jiang Wuniang hurriedly stood up and said, "Old lady, this can't be helped. These objects are too precious for us to want. ”

The others chimed in, saying they couldn't ask for these things.

The old lady was unmoved, stood up, picked up a bead hairpin, and stuffed it into Jiang Wuniang's hand.

Jiang Wuniang seemed to have gotten a hot potato, and she was very at a loss.

Mrs. Cui then stuffed these jewelry into everyone's hands one by one, and did not allow them to refuse.

When she came to Qin Qiaolan's side, Old Madam Cui picked out a delicate headdress and put it in her hand.

Shen saw that this headdress was the most expensive of these jewelry. She was a little puzzled, why didn't the old lady give this headdress to Cui Ying'er, but to Qin Wanlan, who was not of high status? After all, Qin Wanlan is also the status of a concubine, and she is not the wife that Zhe Mingmei is marrying.

A few of the women also saw some clues, but none of them said anything.

Qin Wanlan also vaguely felt that something was wrong, and she hurriedly excused herself: "Back to the old lady, this jewelry is too valuable, the slave family can't afford it!" Please take it back. ”

The old lady looked at Qin Wanlan, who was a little frightened, and patted the back of her hand.

"Weak Lan, you just take it, this is a little bit of my heart, you must accept it. You're different from their sisters, you've been here for a short time, and you don't have anyone to rely on. If there is anything in the future, come to the old body, and I will give you ideas. In the future, if Na Zhe dares to bully you, you will come to me to complain, and I will administer justice to you. ”

At this time, everyone suddenly realized that the old lady was taking the opportunity to give jewelry to everyone to support Qin Wanlan! Then by the way, knock Na Zhe and Fang Ju Niang, so that the two of them will not dare to bully Qin Wanlan easily in the future.

Fang Juniang also understood, she hurriedly came over to say: "Please rest assured, I will definitely get along with Sister Xiaolan in the future, serve a good husband together, and don't let your old man worry about anything." ”

The old lady nodded with satisfaction: "You are all sensible children, I am very relieved." I hope that the three of you will support each other in the future and live in harmony. Strive to spread the branches and leaves for Na Zhe as soon as possible, and continue the incense for the talented Mr. Nalan Rongruo. ”

Fang Juniang and Qin Wanlan both respectfully gave gifts to the old lady and thanked the old lady for her concern.

The old lady then asked Fang Juniang and Qin Wanlan to sit down, and then walked in front of Fu Hongyu.

She took out a pair of jade bracelets from the lacquer box, and then reassured Fu Hongyu's hand.

Fu Hongyu shook her head gently: "Old lady, this jade bracelet is too valuable, I can't ask for it." You'd better keep it for Sister Ying'er. ”

The old lady said warmly: "Hongyu, among these children, your temperament is the most unique. And Du Dalei, this child, is like a fierce horse, only a woman like you can subdue him. The old body hopes that you will live with Hemeimei in the future, and try not to quarrel, okay? ”

Fu Hongyu hurriedly agreed: "Hongyu will follow the old lady's teachings, abide by women's morals, and will not do anything out of line." ”

The old lady smiled and said: "Hongyu, I know your heart very well, although you are cold and unsmiling on the surface, but you are pure and kind-hearted, and you will not do bad things." I'm just worried that if Du Dalei does something bad in the future, you will be hurt. And your character is not willing to talk about these things with others, I'm just afraid that you won't be able to think about it for a while and make some drastic moves! So if you have anything in the future, come and tell me, and I will definitely help you. ”

Fu Hongyu was very moved in her heart, her eyes were a little red, and her voice choked and said:

"Thank you for the old lady's care, Hongyu will remember your words, I have lost all my relatives since I was a child, and you will be Hongyu's elder in the future, please accept the little girl's worship."

Fu Hongyu bowed to the old lady, and the old lady hurriedly asked the maid to hold her and prevent her from kneeling.

The two maids supported Fu Hongyu, and Shen and Cui Ying'er also came over to help and stopped Fu Hongyu.

Old Madam Cui said, "Hongyu, you don't have to be like this. Since we can gather together today, it is the fate that we cultivated in our previous lives. You children are all poor women. Most of you have no relatives or siblings. Since your husband is married to a brother of the opposite sex, you should be closer than your own sisters in the future. I am your stepmother, and you will all be my daughters from now on. In the future, if someone dares to bully you, the old body will definitely call the shots for you. ”

The women present were very moved, and a few of them whimpered softly.

Jiang Wuniang said with tears in her eyes: "My stepmother is above, in the future, our sisters will definitely get along in harmony, take care of their husbands, give birth to children for them, and continue the incense." Live up to your seniors' expectations of us. ”

Other women have expressed their attitudes, saying that they will definitely do it.

Old Madam Cui smiled with satisfaction: "You are all good children, I believe in you." Let's all sit down, let's eat a little more today. ”

So everyone sat down one after another, and the atmosphere in the banquet became more and more harmonious.

At this time, the dog and Xing'er, who had gone out to play, came back, and the old lady pulled the dog over and fed him herself.

And after Xing'er politely greeted everyone, she sat next to Jiang Wuniang and ate gently.

At this time, there were bursts of laughter and laughter downstairs, as well as whistles and coaxing.

Among them, Du Dalei and An Dalang were particularly loud, and the two of them were arguing and shouting, as if they were drawing a fist and a drinking order.

Fang Juniang smiled and said to Fu Hongyu: "Hongyu, you don't care about Du Dalei, if he gets drunk in a while, see how you can take care of him." ”

Fu Hongyu shook his head slightly: "He just came back from Liuqiu, and it is rare to be happy with his brothers, I won't stop him." If he's drunk, I'll do my best to take care of him. ”

The old lady nodded: "Hongyu did the right thing, it's rare that their brothers are happy today, let's leave these alone." After a while, you all go with me to the Cui family's treasury, and I will choose some silk and furs for you to use to buy you a little dowry. ”

Everyone shirked one after another, and the old lady said without question: "You all listen to the old body today, and no one is allowed to want it." ”

At this time, the dog shouted loudly: "Mother-in-law, aunts don't want it, I want it all." I'll take it all home, half for my mother and half for my sister. ”

Everyone giggled, and Fang Juniang said to Jiang Wuniang: "Wuniang, your dog is too powerful, right?" At a young age, I knew how to move things home. Who taught him? ”
