Chapter 197: Confession

When Tong Yan and Cheng Huai walked to the hall, the people of the Cheng family had just arrived.

This is not a coincidence, but there are people in each room to find out in advance which one should arrive when they have already calculated, and this is also the most basic skill of the servants of the family.

Wei Guogong Tongyan has seen him, he is sitting upright, and when he saw his son and daughter-in-law coming, he immediately smiled, and one hand kept stroking his knees.

On the other side of the table sat a young woman, who looked like she was only in her twenties, with a thin layer of bangs on her forehead, who looked very delicate, gentle, and kind, smiling at them.

Needless to say, this naturally has the Wu family who remarried.

Tong Yan didn't expect Wu's appearance to be so likable, she was very kind, she had a good personality at a glance, and she couldn't help but have a good impression of her.

A well-dressed maid led them into the threshold, and it was the two of them who saluted Wei Guogong and Wu first.

The futon has been laid on the ground, and the maid is holding the tea cup is Tong Yan has been mentioned before she came, she is a little shy, smiling, holding a skirt in one hand, holding the maid in the other, and kneeling.

Cheng Huai naturally took his robe and knelt on the futon on the side.

——————

Qingzhi took the teacup from the maid's hand, touched the temperature quietly, and then handed it to Tong Yan with confidence.

Tong Yan smiled and brought it to Wei Guogong and said obediently: "Daddy, please use tea." “

Wei Guogong was originally happy to see them come in, but this time he smiled even more, and said continuously: "Okay, good is a good child, a good child." Hurriedly took the teacup, drank two sips, and then took out a small mahogany box and gave it to Tong Yan.

He and Huai'er Niang had long wanted to give birth to a female doll, but unfortunately, Huai'er Niang had already died, and she had never been able to get her wish. When he got older, he thought more and more, and there was no one in charge in the courtyard, and there was no one who was in charge, but it was a pity that he had given birth to a boy.

This time, Huai'er finally brought her a female doll, and there is a beautiful and noble female doll, I am afraid that everyone in the capital will envy their family to death, it is he who is really happy!

This is a meeting gift, it is a box buckle, it is quite tight, it is not good, it is not easy to open it in front of everyone, so I have to respectfully say thank you, and it is handed over to Ji Yue, who is waiting behind her.

Qingzhi took another cup of tea and handed it to Tong Yan.

Tong Yan was embarrassed this time, she was embarrassed to glance at Wu, this can't be called a mother, right? Such a young stepmother looks the same as her sister.

Wu also, some embarrassment is since she married in, Cheng Huai has never called her, her mother has always called her, Mrs. Wu is not to say that Cheng Huai does not want to call, yes, she is willing to call, she also feels awkward.

There is really a problem with what this county lord should call her.

Cheng Huai and Wei Guogong glanced at each other, and it was Wei Guogong who immediately smiled when he received his son's eyes: "This ......"

Unexpectedly, Tong Yan interrupted Wei Guogong's words with a smile when she picked up the tea, and said to the Wu family: "Mother-in-law, please use tea." ”

The mother really can't say it, but it's barely enough to call her mother-in-law.

Wei Guogong was relieved.

After all, the Wu family also has his wife, and he has to respect her, he can't help but let Tong Yan call her yes, but what is it called, he really didn't think about it, but he heard Tong Yan call her mother-in-law, although it was unspeakably weird, it was also passable.

Wu smiled gently, nodded in response, took two sips, and then took a pair of red gold bracelets with inlaid dragon and phoenix ruyi patterns that he had prepared in advance from the maid's hand, which was given to Tong Yan.

The bracelet is useful at a glance, the heart is that the lines on it are extremely complex and exquisite, and the inlaid gems are also very regular and sleek, and there is a lot of craftsmanship.

It's a pity that Tong Yan already had a pair of jade bracelets on her wrists, otherwise, she would have brought them directly, yes, and she could only say thank you to the Wu family, and handed the bracelet to Ji Yue.

Next to Wu's family, there was also a woman who was not powdered but dressed decently, holding a two- or three-year-old doll in her hand, and Tong Yan couldn't help but look at it twice.

Xu You saw Tong Yan's gaze, and Wu explained with a smile: "This Cheng Yi is Brother Huai's younger brother. ”

Of course, Tong Yan knew that Cheng Yi was okay except for Wu's son, which child could stay next to her.

As for that woman, there must be Cheng Yi's nurse.

Wu took her son from the nurse's hand, looking at her son's cute little face, her heart was about to melt, and she pointed at Tong Yan is tone and said in a very gentle tone: "This is the county lord's sister-in-law, and the sister-in-law is called sister-in-law." ”

Cheng Yi rolled his big black eyes with a milky voice, and shouted at Tong Yan: "Sister-in-law of the county lord." ”

Tong Yan responded with a smile yes this kid s mouth and nose are really a bit like wu is but this big eye has followed wei guogong is look very energetic.

There were also many relatives sitting in the hall, and Wei Guogong pointed to the middle-aged woman who was sitting under him, and said to Tong Yan: "There is your aunt here." ”

Tong Yan secretly thought that there was that Shen who had that hard life.

A gray-blue dress, although it is dull, but there is a good cloud brocade is embroidered with fine dark lines, is wearing a simple sapphire on the head, the head is a sapphire in the middle of the heart, only the thumb is so big, but the whole circle of sapphires around is uniform, the color is exactly the same, it is very rare.

Tong Yan gave Shen a salute and a tea.

A smile appeared on Shen's serious face, and after drinking tea, he gave Tong Yan a pair of golden phoenix hairpins with tired silk inlaid with gemstones.

I have to say that Shen doesn't look very kind, it is possible that because she is old, she is a little thin, so slightly, some out of appearance is the corners of her mouth and habitually drooping, so she always feels a little bitter.

After all, he was widowed at a young age, and he kept it for so many years.

Tong Yan's face was unmoved, but she sighed in her heart, because when it came to it, the Shen family was sure that she could be the daughter-in-law of the eldest son of the Duke of Wei, and her family background was also very good......

She couldn't think too much about it, it was Wei Guogong who pointed to the man in the green robe and black long beard on the seat, and said to Tong Yan with the rich woman in the Hulan Xiang skirt, turmeric and cedar: "This has your third uncle and third aunt." ”

Then there are Cheng Fang and Zhao.

Cheng Fang is relatively thin and weak, and Zhao's slightly rich state is that the husband and wife are sitting together, some inexplicable funny, but the demeanor of the two is there, and some similarities are like optimistic people, and they are all smiling and very kind.

They have two husbands and wives, one son and one daughter are the eldest son, Cheng Yu is the second lady who is the second lady who came to find Tong Yan last night.

Zhao is very sincere, and directly wrapped a big red envelope to Tong Yan, which has a silver ticket of one hundred taels in it.

A noble girl of Tong Yan's status is what she has never seen and what she has not.

If they give it too expensive, they are afraid that it will be overstepped, and if Wei Guogong and Wu are mediocre, they are the county lords, and they can't use them, and they can't reward people, so it's better to simply send some real money directly, and the county lord wants to buy whatever he wants, and he can reward it to whomever he wants.

Tong Yan accepted it with a smile.

Even Qingzhi and the others couldn't help but look at Zhao twice, it was the third wife, but there was really an interesting person.
