Chapter Seventy-One: Man Niang

This hall sister, Jiao Niang also heard from the old lady and Mama Mao, how dignified and generous, how gentle and kind, I have long wanted to see the style, and I don't want to see it on the first day.

Jiao Niang's pace couldn't help but speed up.

Before entering the door, he combed his messy hair and clothes, and followed Qiao Niang into the house.

As soon as I entered, I saw a woman sitting next to the old lady, wearing a pomegranate red dress and smiling, with a goose egg face, apricot eyes and moth eyebrows, combing the usual fallen horse bun, a pair of gilded hibiscus and a flat row on the left bun, and a simple velvet flower on the right, which was simple and noble.

Qiao Niang ran over directly and drilled into her arms, her voice was still milky, "Eldest sister." ”

The woman stroked her back dotingly, "Why are you still like a child, always reckless." Her voice was as soft as a gurgling spring, delicately sieving out a grain of dust.

Qiao Niang grinned, got up and ran back to Jiao Niang, and pulled her to her, "Eldest sister, this is Jiao Niang." ”

Jiao Niang Yingying bowed down, "The princess Wan'an." ”

Manniang got up and helped her, "Get up quickly, don't call me the princess in the future, just follow Qiao Niang to call my eldest sister." ”

"Eldest sister. Seeing the kindness, Jiao Niang didn't feel good, and as Mama Mao said, she was dignified and kind.

Manniang took Jiao Niang to talk again, asked her what she usually likes to eat, what to do, and gave a big red purse with gold thread piping, Jiao Niang opened it when no one paid attention to her, and it was a golden rabbit the size of Brother An's fist, Jiao Niang counted rabbits.

The old lady saw that they were chatting well, and she looked at Mama Mao and smiled meaningfully.

After Manniang finished asking, Cheng took Jiao Niang to recognize the person.

"Jiao Niang, this is your third cousin Junxiang in our family. "In the generation of the Hua family's mother's father, the four brothers are arranged in order, and when it comes to the next generation, each family calls its own family.

"This is my nephew, Cheng Yu, Cheng Shu. ”

The three teenagers have all kinds of styles, one is personable, has the posture of Xu Gong, one is dignified, has a righteous style, one is polite, has an elegant atmosphere, and the lady is called one by one.

Jun Xiang and Cheng Shu both returned the gift, but Cheng Yu was stunned, only looked at Jiao Niang stupidly and forgot to return the gift.

"Cheng Yu. Jun Xiang anxiously tugged at his sleeve.

Everyone covered their mouths and laughed, Cheng Yu's face turned red, and he stumbled: "Jiao...... Hello cousin. ”

Cheng quipped: "My nephew is a fool, he is dazzled when he sees a beautiful girl, and he can't even speak." ”

It's fun to be an aunt, and others laugh even more presumptuously, Cheng Yu can't wait to find a crack in the ground, so he has to bow his head to cover his shame. Jiao Niang saw his manliness, but she was so shy, she couldn't help but smile. Cheng Yufu raised his eyes to look at Jiao Niang, who was bumping into this smile, and didn't realize that there seemed to be thousands of trees and flowers blooming in his heart, and his heart was about to jump out, so he quickly lowered his face again. Ears are hot and hot.

Cheng looked at Cheng Yu and then at Jiao Niang, and after coming and going, an idea popped up in his heart.

Cheng Yu's parents died early, and it was Cheng who raised their two brothers over the years, like aunts and mothers. Cheng Shu is younger, so she doesn't have to think about it now, but Cheng Yu has reached the age of marriage, and she is not without a girl from another family, but she is always dissatisfied.

Cheng pursed his lips and smiled, and said no more for the time being.

The old lady watched the fire with a clear eye, saw through Cheng's plan at a glance, and quietly changed the conversation, and said: "Brother Yu is now more and more breathing, I heard that now Xiang Wang Ye has to follow Brother Yu to protect him when he goes out." ”

Cheng Yu served in the Xiangwang Mansion and was the personal guard of the Xiangwang.

"Yes, my father-in-law likes Brother Yu very much, and he has praised him several times in front of me, saying that he is good at martial arts, and he is careful, and he is relieved to go out with him. Manniang said.

The old lady nodded with satisfaction and looked at Cheng Yu, "Well, that's right, man, start a business first and then start a family, if you are powerful in Xiangwang, it will also make your cousin's face shine, and vice versa, as long as your cousin stands tall in Xiangwang's mansion, you have a bright future." ”

Hearing this, Cheng Yu was pierced, furrowed his eyebrows, and said in a deep voice to the old lady: "Don't worry, old lady, Cheng Yu will not embarrass his cousin." ”

The old lady nodded, and pulled Manniang to speak.

Cheng Shu quietly walked to Qian Niang's side and took out a lotus pattern purse from his arms, "Qian Niang, look, this is the gold coin that Princess Xiang gave me, I will keep it for you." ”

Qian Niang glanced at it, "When it's a good thing, I don't want it." What's so great about Xiangwang's Mansion, I entered the palace with Ming'er, how many as I wanted. ”

Cheng Shu was lost, put his purse in his pocket, and walked back to Cheng Yu silently, lowering his head and not saying anything, like a wilting eggplant.

It is rare for the three heads of the house to get together, and in the afternoon, Cheng arranged a church meeting, and left the second old lady and the third old lady to eat in the evening.

At the banquet, the old lady said that Manniang was thinner than before she went to the capital, and she vigorously served her vegetables and asked her to eat more.

The second old lady stared at Manniang's belly, "Manniang has been married into Xiangwangfu for several years, why haven't I seen you pregnant." This woman, it is a big deal to inherit the family of her husband, not to mention that your husband is the son of King Xiang, and he will inherit King Xiang's mansion in the future, if you don't have a son, isn't it cheap for those concubines?"

There were also two concubines of Second Master Hua present, and their faces were not good-looking at this time.

Manniang's face was embarrassed, and she said bluntly: "Child, you also have to pay attention to fate." ”

The second old lady sneered: "What fate, it's not that a man can't get to your house." This word pierced Manniang's heart, like a loud slap in her face, half of her face was red, and the old lady was angry, pursing her mouth and forbearing.

The second old lady covered her mouth after speaking, "It's mine, it's not me, I forgot that there are so many girls who haven't gone out." Pick up the cup and toast to the old lady, "Sister-in-law, don't mind, I drank two glasses here, and my mouth was full of nonsense." ”

The old lady tried to make herself look smiling, "Then you can fine a few more drinks, and stop this nonsense." In front of these daughters-in-law and girls, they are disrespectful to the elderly, and they are not afraid of people's jokes. If you want me to say, the child is not the most important thing, and it doesn't matter if the child is born well, if you give birth to someone like your Junzhi, you can't follow the ** heart. ”

As soon as the words fell, the second old lady's eyes widened, the wine glass "slammed" on the table, and half a glass burst out with a slight trembling, "Sister-in-law's words are ugly, what's wrong with our family Junzhi?"

The old lady sneered, "I heard that Junzhi has recruited two concubines from the gentle township in the east of the city? Didn't I say that your second brother and sister, you should discipline and discipline well, this is not yet married, just a room of concubines, which daughter of a good family is willing to marry." ”
