Chapter 172: Arrival

Since Mama An came over with an excuse to send the sobering soup, she didn't stay, and said a few words before leaving.

San Lang personally sent it to the door, and when he saw Mama An go away, he breathed a sigh of relief. Mama An's look at the idiot had already fallen in his eyes, and he was afraid that Mama An would be rude.

One side is his mother's confidant, and the other side is his own brother, Saburo still hopes that they can get along.

When Mama An walked out of the yard, the smile on her face dissipated, and there was a little more thought in her eyes.

When she returned to the hospital, Amber saw that her face was not good, and said, "What's wrong?" Don't you can't help it, what did you say something unpleasant? The third young master was annoyed. ”

Mama An shook her head, sat down on the side of the kang, frowned, and said: "I didn't expect that person to be this look, not only three points like the third young master, but also a little like the eldest lady. Hey, with that cleverness, it's not unusual to coax the third young master and the eldest lady away. ”

An Bo said: "I can't complain that I look at him with a kind face, think about it carefully, compared to the third young master, this concubine looks more like the eldest lady." ”

Mama An sighed and said, "I don't know whether to guard against it or not." Listening to his words and actions, he is really the eldest lady's own brother, seemingly peaceful, but he is actually lonely. If you think about it, if you are really high-spirited, with the name of 'Son of Heaven's Companion', it is not uncommon to come back to earn any three melons and two dates. But knowing the face of the person does not know the heart, since ancient times, in the house, the dispute between the concubines has never been broken, such a close as a compatriot, if there is a bad heart, it is impossible to prevent people. We know the inside story, and we know that from the time he landed to the time he was abandoned, he was the old lady who sat in the house, and he didn't do anything with his wife, but outsiders who knew what it was back then. If he was angry and hated his mother-in-law's biological father, then he would still make do with the third young master, and he would definitely be uneasy and kind. ”

Although Amber felt that the Taoist idiot was in line with his eyes, and he didn't think he was a traitor, but since he was entrusted by Wang Yang's family, he protected San Lang as an eyeball, and after listening to his wife's words, he didn't dare to take risks, thought about it, and said: "Even if the wife is promoted, we are subordinates in the end, and we can only persuade the third young master, and it is not good to force the third young master to anything." Otherwise, you should go and meet the eldest girl, the eldest girl has a good idea. If she speaks, the third young master will also listen. ”

Mama An pondered for a while, nodded and said, "It's better to ask the eldest lady to call the shots......"

In the east courtyard, although San Lang has a belly to say to the same way, he wants his brother to sleep and talk about his farewell, it can be seen that his face is dull, and he can't bear it in his heart, so when he is in the house, he asks him to rest first.

The Taoist idiot came from a long journey, and he got up early today again, and he was really sleepy, so he was polite to San Lang and went back to the West House to rest.

I had a good night's sleep, and by the time the idiot opened his eyes, it was already early the next morning.

Qingqiao was already waiting outside, and when she heard movement in the house, she came in with a tray, and there were all clothes, shoes and hats inside, all of which were new.

The clothes are Confucian, and the headscarf is Confucian, which is different from the regular clothes that are changed in the evening. The clothes of the idiot are all in the same hall, and he didn't send anyone to pick them up, so he was not polite, freshened up, and changed from beginning to end, making him more and more elegant and handsome.

Saburo got up early and changed into new clothes, and the two brothers had the same style of clothes and hats, only the colors were different, one was ultramarine, and the other was royal blue.

The Gao family is not only Rong Niang's mother-in-law's family, but also San Lang's aunt's family, where you need to change into new clothes to be a guest, it is nothing more than accompanying the Taoist idiot, and the Taoist idiot in the province is wearing a new cluster of eyes.

When the idiot saw it, he realized this delicate and considerate feeling, and accepted Saburo's kindness.

The two brothers had breakfast, and seeing that it was still early, San Lang took the idiot to the new house in the alley.

Resting in other large households, the courtyard of the three entrances, and the thirty-three rooms, it is nothing. But the idiot came to this world and has been living in Anlu, and he is really fed up with the cramped courtyard over there, and he is very satisfied with the large-scale residential structure in the north. The population of the outer nine rooms is already small, not to mention that there are only two grandchildren now, even if the Taoist idiot marries a wife and has children, it is enough.

In addition, it is close to the Fuxue, and it is a place where Confucian scholars live before and after, and the Taoist idiot is very satisfied.

It's not that there is any discrimination against the people in the market, it's just that Confucianism likes to pay attention to etiquette and rules, and lives mostly behind closed doors, with a lot less right and wrong.

There are two grandchildren in the outer nine rooms, and they are left in other places, if the neighborhood really has a lot of things to do, it will also be annoying.

After going around the new house, about the same time, the two brothers took a carriage to Goldfish Alley.

The Taoist idiot followed Hu into Beijing, often accompanied by the emperor, and where did he have the kung fu to prepare what local specialties. The few color gifts brought by Saburo were all prepared by Saburo last night, but they would not make people find faults.

"My uncle needs to sit in the government and will not be at home. The eldest cousin was born in the top three Jinshi, and his family was in office in Shandong. Brother-in-law Xinger, there is a little cousin below, nine years old today, smart and cute, and has a good relationship with the eldest sister. On the way, San Lang introduced the situation of the Gao family: "The elders of the next generation, in their hometown in Sichuan, are supported by the second room of the Gao family. ”

Dao Idiot was worried that Rong Niang's personality was too strong, and it was inevitable that there would be friction when she arrived at her in-law's house, but what she had seen and heard in the past two days somewhat understood why Wang Yang's family chose to "kiss and kiss" and choose this family business.

Gao Mengxiang's talent is not very outstanding, but he has a gentle personality and is a good-natured person. The Gao family has a simple population, and Rong Niang is not the eldest daughter-in-law, so it is not difficult to be a second daughter-in-law.

However, after meeting twice, I really didn't see that Gao Mengxiang was from Sichuan.

At this time, the officialdom paid attention to "fellow villagers", "same year", and "classmates", and weaved various human networks according to the relationship between regions, in-laws, teachers and students.

Since the Gao family is also from Sichuan, they can marry the Yang family, so what is said about this is hometown friendship.

"Brother-in-law Gao speaks, but he doesn't have the flavor of that side." Dao idiot.

Sichuan is rich in real estate, and it is not uncommon for Sichuan merchants to be wide.

San Lang said with a smile: "Although my aunt and uncle are both from Sichuan, they don't grow up in Sichuan, their native accents are shallow, and when they come to my brother-in-law, they were born and grew up in the capital, so naturally there is nothing left." Speaking of which, my maternal grandfather's ancestral home is still in Jiangxi, and when my maternal great-grandfather was in his early years, he was also an official in Huguang. Half of the foreign family servants are also from Huguang. ”

Yang Tinghe has become the first assistant, and the resumes of his ancestors are not a secret in the officialdom, and the Taoist idiot also knows it. Yang Tinghe's father belongs to the generation of "late bloomers", and he was only a jinshi at the age of forty-seven, later than his son Yang Tinghe. I don't know if it was to make way for his son, Yang Chun was not only in the pedestrian division for one term, but he was sent out to Huguang to do a study, until he was a sixtieth officer, and he was not seeking a Beijing official. During the same period, Yang Tinghe has been serving in the Hanlin Academy.

Speaking kung fu, to the goldfish alley.

The two brothers got out of the carriage, and Saburo told the little guy to come forward and call the door.

The porter knew San Lang, and hurriedly ordered to pass the word inside, and then called him "Young Master Cousin", and greeted the two in the courtyard.

Without waiting to welcome him to the south hall, Gao Mengxiang greeted him and said with a smile: "It's finally here, Rong Niang has been waiting for a long time." After that, he didn't invite the two into the south hall, but took them directly to the second door: "They are all relatives, go see our wife first." By the way, my aunt is also there. The last sentence was addressed to Saburo.

When San Lang heard this, his brows frowned slightly.

Inside the second gate, Rong Niang had already brought two little maids to wait.

Seeing the idiot, she smiled even better, and looked at it carefully: "I haven't seen you for a year, and Erlang has also become taller." ”

The Taoist idiot also looked over, Rong Niang changed the woman's hair ornament, and the goose egg face became a melon seed face, which was a few points less than in the past, but the eyes were shining, and she still looked very energetic, and there was no haggard color.

The Taoist idiot saluted, and glanced at Gao Mengxiang, who had a slightly full face next to him. Thinking about what this is all about, don't they all say that the newlywed Yan'er, and the groom is tired? Why did the bride lose weight?

It seems that no matter how simple the Gao family is, how kind the aunt is as a mother-in-law, it is not an easy job to be a daughter-in-law from a delicate girl.

Rong Niang smiled and helped the idiot, then looked at San Lang, and said with a little distress: "San Lang has lost weight again, even if Erlang travels thousands of miles, this face is better than yours." ”

San Lang sneered: "Eldest sister, I see that the weather is hot, and my younger brother is in a bitter summer." ”

Mrs. Gao was still waiting in the house, and now it was not the time to say this, Rong Niang shook her head and beckoned the two to go up to the room.

When she arrived at the door, Rong Niang took a few steps and entered the house.

In the western room, two middle-aged women were sitting and eating tea on the Arhat collapse near the window, and they had already heard the movement in the courtyard.

"Mother, aunt, my two brothers are here." Rong Niang smiled and said.

The middle-aged woman on the throne was dressed in a half-new gown, and her body was rich, and she said with a smile: "Since the nephews have arrived, they are not invited in." ”

The woman in the guest seat was wearing an indigo dress, and she only had a silver hairpin on her head, and there was no auspicious color. Listening to Rong Niang's words, she also turned her head and looked at the door.

Rong Niang went out, worked hard for a while, and brought in Dao Idiot and San Lang with her husband.

San Lang has been in Beijing for a year, and he has lived in Shilang's Mansion for two months, whether it is Mrs. Gao or the eldest lady of Shilang's Mansion, they are all familiar with each other, and they have seen each other first.

Then, Rong Niang pulled the idiot and said to the two: "Mother, aunt, this is another brother in my hometown, with a single name and a Jin character, and he only arrived in Beijing yesterday." ”

Then he said to the idiot: "This is my wife, you follow San Lang to call your aunt." As he spoke, he pointed to the woman in blue and said, "This is the eldest aunt of the foreign family." ”

The Taoist idiot bowed down and saw two.

Mrs. Yang was speechless, looked around the idiot's body, and then looked at San Lang next to her.

Mrs. Gao gave a handful of hands and said with a smile: "Tsk, if you don't say it's a brother, if you don't know it, you probably think it's a twin." ”

Because it was the first time I saw it, I had to ask someone to give a gift.

Seeing this, Mrs. Yang's face condensed slightly.

Seeing Mrs. Gao's personal maid giving two gifts, she looked better.

Mrs. Gao seemed to have a good impression of the Taoist idiot, and ordered someone to move the stool, told him to sit closer, and talked about his family routine.

San Lang was stared at by Mrs. Yang uncomfortably, turned his head, and saw Rong Niang looking at the Taoist idiot with a smile.

The aunt was too enthusiastic, San Lang faintly felt that something was wrong, looked at Mrs. Yang next to her and couldn't help frowning, looked for a reason, pulled Rong Niang out, and said in a low voice: "Sister, don't do to others what you don't want to do to others, San Lang is not someone else, but you and my own brother ......"
