Chapter 228: Kindness
Jinghu and the others were originally standing in the center of the flower hall, and when they saw the elders coming, they naturally stepped forward to salute and say hello. The Xie sisters stepped forward, and Jinghu also walked over and saluted Mrs. Ning.
Old Madam Ning softly called them up, and also helped Jinghu with her hand. Jinghu has not served such an old man much, but he has offended a lot at the poker table.
At this time, seeing Ke Mingxu standing aside, he couldn't help but be a little stunned.
Old Madam Ning smiled kindly, and immediately fell on Jinghu, "This is the Jingling County Lord from Yanjing, right?" is really like a pearl, so many granddaughters in the family are compared at once. ”
Out of Yanjing, Jinghu's face seemed to be a little thinner, and his face began to be a little red.
"You're really wrong. I just arrived at Xie's house today, and after meeting a few sisters, I felt a little embarrassed. ”
"All the way from Yanjing to Huai'an, I got along with Sister Ying for a month, and I realized that I was really shallow, and there were still many things to learn from Sister Ying and the sixth sister of the Xie family."
Mrs. Ning said: "What do you learn from them, you only know that you can't study blindly to death?" The little girl's house is better to be lively. ”
Zhao on the side said: "It's all ready inside, what are you doing standing here blindly and talking?" Mother, let's go in quickly, so that these little girls can sit down and talk, and have a good chat before the feast begins. ”
Mrs. Ning was as kind as a stream, patted her daughter-in-law's hand, and led everyone into the flower hall. Jinghu was a guest, and she was surrounded by them around Old Madam Ning, and she couldn't even look back at Ke Mingxu.
After all, he was a man, and even if it was a family feast, he had to sit on another table separated by a screen.
There are a lot of accompaniments today, in addition to the eldest wife of the Xie family and the Tan family, who have been busy, there are also Feng and Zhao. Mrs. Ning said that she was coming over temporarily, and there were inevitably many seating decorations to be adjusted.
Jinghu sat next to Mrs. Ning, on the other side was the eldest wife of the Xie family, and again the third wife, the Zhao family. Originally, Jinghu should be beside the Tan family, but she was afraid that Jinghu would be a little uncomfortable, so she gave up a seat to her daughter.
Feng Shi seemed to want to ridicule each other, but he was glanced at by the eldest wife of the Xie family, so he didn't dare to say anything.
It's really bullying the soft and afraid of the hard. In fact, if it weren't for the preconceived idea, I was afraid that Jinghu would be difficult to like someone like Tan. Even if it is a concubine, in terms of family heritage, it is better than an upstart like Feng who has ascended to heaven by a chicken dog.
If she could stand up on her own, Feng would naturally not dare to bully her. What's more, she has a husband who loves him like this, and there are few men in the world who can ignore anything and disobey their parents, just to marry the woman they love.
There are a large number of men who have chosen for themselves a virtuous and virtuous woman from a famous family as their wives, and they have to find beautiful women in the world to fulfill their so-called emotional needs.
They will only think about themselves, and they will not think that their wives also have such needs. They do not exist to have children, husbands and children, they also have their independent personalities and the lives they want.
In the final analysis, the way of the world is so wrong, women can only be vassals of men forever. or as a wife or as a concubine, forever buried deep in internal debts, and their faces are blurred.
Jinghu has been paying attention to the movement of the male guest, and soon it became lively. She heard Mr. Zhou's voice, and when there was wine, his movements were always so loud.
On this side, Mrs. Ning also began to talk to Jinghu, "The brother of the little county lord is Bi Niang's husband, right?" How is Bi Niang good in the palace of Yongning County over the years? ”
This question is really the most difficult for Yu Jinghu to answer. She also felt a little strange, why did Old Madam Ning suddenly ask Ke Mingbi. Mrs. Ning is Mrs. Ke's aunt, and to Ke Mingbi, she is her grandmother.
The greater the generational interval and the farther the blood relationship, the more indifferent the affection.
"My sister-in-law gave birth to a son when she was in the first month, and she named her brother. Brother Kai'er is like a sister-in-law, very delicate. It's just that my health is not too good, I feel uncomfortable from time to time, and even my sister-in-law is tired, and my body is weaker. ”
She really couldn't think of anything to say. Jing Shen's, there is no need to say it on such an occasion.
Fortunately, Old Madam Ning only nodded, and then instructed Mrs. Xie, "When Xu'er goes back, let him bring more medicinal supplements." Both mothers and sons are not in good health, and so are newborn children, so they should make up for it. ”
Mrs. Xie looked respectful of her mother-in-law and bowed her head in response.
It seems that Mrs. Ning is indeed very good to Mrs. Ke, maybe because as Xie Chiying said, she is the best among the girls of their generation, or maybe there are other reasons.
Xie Chiying saw that Old Madam Ning had finished speaking, and also asked her, "Old Madam, a few months ago, you could see my sister?" When I was in Yanjing, I received a letter saying that everything was fine after the first three months, but I was still a little uneasy. ”
Mrs. Ning said, "Your sister is so polite and has returned to her parents' house, how can she not come to see me?" See, her aunt came back with her. She looks very good, she can eat, she sleeps soundly, and her double mother-in-law loves her when she is at home, so there is nothing to worry about. ”
Xie Chiying smiled, "I didn't see her in person, I only received her letter, and I was always a little worried, afraid that she would report good news or bad news." But with you saying that, I'm much more relieved. When I have free time, I will also learn to make some small clothes for my little niece and niece. ”
In Jinghu's imagination, Mrs. Ning should be a little serious and not angry, but she didn't expect to be so kind.
"It's a good thing that you two sisters have a good relationship. Even if you don't ask, I'll tell you. Pity your mother, like a saw-mouthed gourd, who wants to ask but doesn't dare to ask. ”
Old Madam Ning was joking, but Jing Hu could also keenly sense that she didn't seem to like the Tan family too much.
"Originally, your grandfather's birthday feast, your sister was also coming. It's just that Shizi took a temporary errand and wanted to go to Yanjing, and she was afraid that it would be inconvenient on the road alone, so she couldn't come. ”
"Well, when your grandfather's birthday feast is over, I'll call for someone to send you to Hangzhou to meet your sister, how about it? By the way, I'll have to arrange a carriage for you, so you won't get seasick again. ”
Xie Chiying was overjoyed, "It's not in the way, old lady, if it's for my sister, I dare to go even if I faint." ”
"Nonsense again." Old Madam Ning reprimanded with a smile.
On the side, Mrs. Xie asked her if she could open the table, and there was already movement on the male guest's side, and Mrs. Ning nodded.
