Chu Mansion stopped for two days, and it looked calm, but in fact, the dark tide was surging, and there were needles hidden in the cotton.

Aunt Zhao relied on her pregnancy, and always pulled Master Chu into her room, asking for some noodles today and some supplements tomorrow. She didn't do it for herself, but to add makeup to Chu Xianglin.

The dowry prepared by Mrs. Chu for Chu Xianglin just looked shabby. Those who pick up and carry burdens, look at the excitement, but in fact there are few valuable things. Master Chu prides himself on being romantic, not contaminated with copper odor, and never cares about how much his daughter's dowry is, as long as he doesn't embarrass him, everything is fine.

Xu has not had an aunt pregnant for many years, and Lord Chu felt that he had ignited the fire of youth again, but he was also generous, and bought a lot of things for Aunt Zhao, which made Mrs. Chu have a splitting headache, but it was not good to quarrel with him because of this matter.

Mrs. Chu summoned Chu Yueli and said to her: "Your family affairs have been ordered, but you are in a bit of a hurry, and the family has not prepared so many dowries." Originally, I planned to give you the candied fruit shop on North Street as a dowry, but I didn't want to, the shop was remembered by Aunt Zhao and wanted to add makeup to Xianglin. Our Chu Mansion looks rich, but in fact, with this open mouth at home, which one doesn't want to eat well or wear well?! Ay...... How many sets of new clothes are enough for the master? Well, why did I tell you this? He grabbed Chu Yueli's hand and patted it, "You are a good boy, and my mother loves you the most in her heart." Sometimes, though, there's just nothing you can do. You dowry, mother will think of other ways. If you really can't, you can only make up a few pieces of jewelry. ”

Chu Yueli did not go to fight with Aunt Zhao to ask for a candied fruit shop in the way Mrs. Chu expected, but nodded obediently and replied shyly: "Everything is up to my mother." ”

Mrs. Chu only felt that her chest was stuffy, and she hurriedly sent Chu Yueli away. When Master Chu returned home in the evening, Mrs. Chu repeated her old tricks and said to him: "Master, Yueli's marriage is a bit in a hurry, and the family really can't get a decent dowry, lest I lose my lord's face." I thought, the candied fruit shop on North Street might as well be given to Yueli. ”

Master Chu was embarrassed: "Candied fruit shop?" Didn't I tell you last night, Aunt Zhao has been vomiting hard recently, and she loves to eat sour dates in our candied fruit shop. She begged me for it, and it was not good not to give it to her. ”

Mrs. Chu frowned and said, "Hey...... It's bad for me. Today, Yueli came to ask for peace, looking ashamed, thinking that she was also worried about the dowry. ”

Old Man Chu thought for a while, nodded, and said, "Okay, let's add makeup to Yueli from the candied fruit shop." We are marrying daughters, not selling women for glory, so we can't be too shabby. ”

Mrs. Chu nodded in agreement, and a trace of brilliance crossed her lowered eyes, very proud. When she looked up, she turned into that worried look again, and asked: "It's all over there, and it is said that the eight characters are the best match, and the marriage must be completed immediately." But this ...... Why didn't you believe it again? Master, will this matter go wrong? ”

Master Chu was a little upset and said, "What can be wrong?" Wait a little longer. We can't rush this matter ourselves! After that, he turned around and left to see Aunt Zhao.

When Aunt Zhao saw Master Chu, her heart was instantly overjoyed. She snuggled in her arms and said softly and sweetly: "I can see the master every night, even if my body is uncomfortable, my heart is sweet." ”

Master Chu stroked Aunt Zhao's belly with a satisfied look.

After Aunt Zhao whispered a few words to Master Chu, she asked, "Master, where are the people and the candied fruit shop you want?" Can someone else get the contract? ”

Master Chu's face stiffened, and he slowed down before he said with a smile: "Yueli is also getting married." There is nothing prepared for her in the house, so the shop will be given to her as a dowry. ”

When Aunt Zhao heard this, her face changed. She said angrily: "The master promised to give it to the concubine yesterday, and today he promised to give it to that little slut!" ”

Old Master Chu instantly turned a cold face, and said in a deep voice: "Who do you say is the little slut?!" ”

Aunt Zhao knew that she had said the wrong thing, and immediately had tears in her eyes, Chu Chu looked at Master Chu pitifully, and said, "It's the concubine who said it wrong, it's the concubine who doesn't choose what to say, don't blame the master, concubine...... The concubine slapped herself in the mouth...... "When she speaks, she has to slap her mouth."

Master Chu stopped her hand, frowned, and said, "Okay, okay, you can raise the baby with peace of mind, and I will come to see you tomorrow." After that, he turned around and left, went to Aunt Xu's place, and let Aunt Zhao beg bitterly and didn't look back. In Master Chu's opinion, his bloodline is much more valuable than these concubines. The rules of the house cannot be messed up.

Aunt Xu saw that Master Chu was in a bad mood, so she became more and more gentle and careful, and even warmed a pot of wine and accompanied Master Chu to drink two glasses.

Master Chu sighed with emotion: "I'm still comfortable with you, and I never block me." ”

Aunt Xu smiled softly: "The master is the pillar of the mansion and the concubine's heaven." If the lord is unhappy, the concubine's sky will fall. Even if the concubine feels a little uncomfortable, she will not take it out to upset the master. ”

Master Chu stroked Aunt Xu's hand and looked at her face, but his eyebrows were slightly furrowed. He felt that Aunt Xu had something to say, and maybe she would have to sue him and say why she was uncomfortable.

Aunt Xu is good at observing words and feelings, and when she saw Master Chu's expression, she immediately showed a look of admiration and obsession, and continued: "What's more, how can there be anything upset by the master's side?" The concubine's heart was full of joy. ”

Master Chu's brows opened, and he took another sip, feeling very relieved. He lay down on the cushion and sighed, "You are a contented woman. Those who are content are always happy, such a simple truth, but few people understand. ”

Aunt Xu snuggled up to Master Chu, gently rubbed his forehead, and asked, "Why is the master frowning?" ”

Master Chu told the matter of the candied fruit shop, and finally concluded: "Tell me, it's just a shop, and it's worth making a lot of noise!" ”

Aunt Xu smiled silently.

Master Chu grabbed Aunt Xu's hand and asked, "Who do you think this shop should be given to?" ”

Aunt Xu said: "The shop belongs to the master, and the master will give it to whoever he wants." Moreover, the things that the master decides are naturally excellent. ”

Master Chu smiled with satisfaction, and then asked, "You don't want to fight for some dowry for Man'er?" ”

Aunt Xu said: "There is an old man who loves Miss Six, why should the concubine worry about this?" Serving the master well is the big thing that the concubine has to do. ”

Master Chu pulled Aunt Xu into his arms and smiled happily: "You, you are really understanding." Well, very good...... Look at Aunt Zhao's belly, how angry. Tonight, the master loves you so much, you give me another big fat boy......"

Aunt Xu wanted to refuse and welcome, as shy as a girl.

Separated by a wall, Aunt Xu's face is dyed with peach blossoms, and the spring light is infinite; Aunt Zhao's face was like earth, and her expression was distorted with hatred.
