Mrs. Wu has been diligent and thrifty since she was young, and after entering the old age, she paid more and more attention to health care under the guidance of famous doctors.

Therefore, even though the time of the meal, the style and quantity of the dishes are particular, in general, they are not very luxurious.

Today's lunch, as usual, is three vegetarian and one meat with two snacks, and a bowl of fresh soup, which she can eat alone.

And today, with the share that the eldest lady Du Shi who has been waiting for Danyang in Songhe Hall should have, the table of the eight immortals for the meal is less than one-third.

But when the maids presented the lunch that had already been prepared for the lord of Danyang County in turn, the entire table of the Eight Immortals was filled in a blink of an eye.

During this period, Du Shi unintentionally raised his eyes and swept it, and his heart and liver immediately trembled.

Although she quickly lowered her eyes, she sat down beside Mrs. Wu as if nothing had happened. But the little liver that was stimulated inevitably became painful and sore.

Not to mention anything else. I only said that the southern meat spring bamboo shoots, that was the bacon of the little fragrant pig that was specially offered when the head of the village paid the rent last year, and the fresh and tender spring bamboo shoots that have just been put on the market now.

Now it's just spring, and it's still cold. How much does it cost to pay a tael of fresh spring bamboo shoots? What's more, it's better to pinch the tip to use it.

Don't look at this small plate, but it really costs a tael of silver to make the main ingredient.

This is not to be used to adjust the freshness, it must be a thick soup made by chickens and ducks. The firewood accessories are roughly calculated, and they also cost three or four corners of silver!

Not to mention the bowl of milky fragrant and priceless cheese. Although it was two days before Qinghe, he took the initiative to send someone to send something to honor the old lady, and it did not cost the money of the Guogong Mansion.

But because of this, Du's heart became more and more sour.

She has only drunk delicious food twice since she was a child. In Danyang's mother and daughter, it is just an ordinary thing. And in order to show her generosity, the old lady also wants to give Danyang a share of the bowl of cheese that she is reluctant to use more......

Oh, don't talk about her eldest daughter, the eldest lady of the Zhenguo Mansion that Mrs. Wu has always been proud of, doesn't have this treatment. Even her tired housewife doesn't have this "blessing" and face!

Even, at this moment, she can have the honor of being on an equal footing with the old lady and dining together in private without having to serve her mother-in-law, which she has only earned for decades as a cow and a horse in the Guogong Mansion.

But look at the wild girl in Danyang, what have they done?

Not only is the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but the female red behavior is not as good as her eldest daughter, and it is not counted as causing trouble to smear her own reputation on weekdays, but also to bring the girls of the entire Guogong Mansion!

But such a muddy thing that can't support the wall can actually sit opposite her?

The more Du Shi thought about it, the more unpleasant he felt in his heart, and under his anger, the new hatred and old hatred in his heart were instantly hooked.

And became more and more annoyed, Danyang and Qinghe eldest princess only had a mother and daughter who were born superior and acted recklessly in the light and in the dark.

With the help of eating, Du Shi drank two mouthfuls of fresh soup in a row before he flattened the anger in his heart.

After that, while stretching out the dishes for Mrs. Wu, she couldn't help but speak, seemingly casual but after careful consideration, she said in a joking tone:

"Danyang's girl's temperament has really not changed since she was a child, and she is like a monkey with skin. Few of the boys in our family can compare to her. But fortunately, the old lady is blessed for a long time, sheltering her children and grandchildren, making this girl look delicate and delicate, and very clever and lovely. ”

After Du Shi photographed Mrs. Wu very comfortably, he gradually got to the point:

"It's just that although the county lord is quite favored, it is inevitable to jump out. Fortunately, she is a girl, and she was given a knighthood by His Majesty, so she will not worry about anything in the future. But now the younger sibling, the eldest princess of Qinghe rarely has good news again, if it is a boy......"

Speaking of this, she smiled bitterly for a moment, and then stopped talking.

"Seeing that I have made the same old mistake again, I can't remember your old teaching of 'eating and sleeping'. It's unfounded, what nonsense are you talking about? It's too early to think about whether the younger siblings will be male or female. ”

Du Shi smiled and confessed, and after laughing at himself, he naturally took care of his own lunch.

But this remark made Mrs. Wu's thoughts be pulled away, and almost instinctively began to "worry about the sky".

It's just that she has long been accustomed to having staff officers, and on major matters in the family, she has more time with her eldest daughter-in-law as a staff officer, and it is more natural.

Therefore, after only two turns of her mind, Mrs. Wu raised her hand impatiently and waved away all the idle people in the house.

Only Du Shi and his henchmen, the personal maid Cui'er, and now the right-hand man Qin Mama were left. But when her gaze swept to Mama Feng, Old Madam Wu rarely hesitated for a moment.

Although, it is true that she is not close to each other in her heart. But at the moment, because of these little things, it is not cost-effective to let the people who have painstakingly placed in the princess's mansion have two hearts.

So in the end, Mama Feng was also left behind.

After the other maids came out, Mrs. Wu turned her head to stare at her eldest daughter-in-law and said bluntly:

"What do you want to say? Now I don't have to worry so much. ”

Therefore, they are all "their own people" at the moment, and the old lady is too lazy to put up a shelf. Especially in this kind of big event, she doesn't hide her true cold side.

Du Shi smiled proudly in his heart because everything was going as expected, but he only got up with a serious look on his face, and after the gesture of Old Madam Wu, he continued while sitting down again:

"If it is a boy, and the eldest princess is so arrogant and spoiled, I am afraid that it will be a big disaster for the Guogong Mansion. And even if the eldest princess is loved by Emperor Xuande again, she won't be knighted directly to the male of our Guogong Mansion, right? ”

The Guogong Mansion wants to fill in one, without the support of the royal title, and like Danyang, a man who keeps getting into trouble?

It was only this year that popped into her mind, and Mrs. Wu's brows immediately became a dead knot.

"In your opinion?"

"This."

Du Shi made a deep groan for a moment, and when Old Madam Wu's anxious eyebrows were about to be squeezed together, he said in embarrassment:

"According to the humble opinion of the daughter-in-law, if you take your younger siblings to live in the Guogong Mansion for a while, in the name of helping her raise the baby, and then make arrangements after she gives birth to the baby, you can also adapt to the situation. What do you see? ”

When Mrs. Wu heard this, she raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked:

"Do you want to say, if Qinghe gave birth to a boy, let me bring it to my side?"

Although it is not impossible, she is used to living a leisurely life, and she really doesn't want to take on this drudgery.

Du Shi had already expected Mrs. Wu's thoughts, and when he saw this, he immediately answered:

"Don't worry, it's just in case. Besides, even if she does give birth to a boy, it will be raised in your name. The national government has a great business, and it is the time for the branches to flourish. At that time, I and my concubines, who can't spare this little time to pull and raise him to grow up? ”

Old Mrs. Wu was moved by what she said, the door curtain rang, and she strolled over.

And before he could bypass the screen and walk up to a few people, he said with a smile:

"Whose child is the aunt worried about? Is she so motherly and willing to raise her like a mother? ”
