The day when Huan Xian passed the door was the sixth day of August, and there were two young ladies a year, and the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in Pei's Mansion was extraordinarily grand.

The new daughters-in-law are still young, although Wang Xi is stable, it is difficult to come forward because of his widowhood, so Mrs. Pei is still the main victim.

In previous years, the population was small, and there was often filial piety, so they all passed in Dehetang.

This year is the first year of great joy, for this special Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet in the heart of the lake in the mahogany hall of Keyuan to prepare, from the south to transport the cool crab, with last year's sealed altar of hot wine, the lake on all sides reflects the yellow flowers, there is a unique taste.

is worthy of a military family, the two old men eat more than Afu, and they are not afraid of the cold. Wang Xi persuaded a few words, thinking that the old man liked it, so he would just do it.

But when Afu was eating, the old lady smiled and said, "Afu, eat less, what if you already have it in your stomach?" ”

Afu was shocked and ashamed, the crabs all fell, and Huang Zi shook Shuyu in the face.

Shu Yu was caught off guard, he was not angry, after all, gathering together was just for fun, but he deliberately frowned and said to the old lady: "Auntie, you are obviously talking about Afu, but you are affecting your son." ”

Ji Heng said narrowly: "This baby is not a matter of sister-in-law alone, how can A-Niang talk about sister-in-law?" ”

Shuyu was speechless when asked, and only threatened to beat him.

Ji Heng deliberately begged for mercy to make the old lady smile: "Daddy! You don't care about the second brother! ”

Mrs. Pei Pei Jingsheng has always cherished words like gold, and he will stroke his beard and only pat Mrs. Pei on the shoulder, meaning that this is your business, I don't interfere.

Afu followed Silly Le, and her eyes swept to her sister-in-law, seeing that although she was also laughing, she was a little reluctant.

Afu said in her heart: "Where is this inconsiderate that caused her to touch the scene?" ”

She didn't say a word, did she?

After getting along for a month, Afu felt that this sister-in-law was not bad at heart, and her demeanor and upbringing really didn't have anything to say, but she was always unhappy for some reason, and she always took the nameless fire on herself.

Afu maliciously speculated, thinking that it was because she hadn't had a man for too long, and she was depressed.

Old Madam Pei also seemed to notice it, and led the conversation to the eldest lady: "Ah Xi, have you sent a gift to your father?" A few days ago, Ah Heng got married, and I was so busy that I forgot, your father don't blame me. ”

Wang Xi hurriedly smiled and replied, "How come! My aunt and my father are brothers and sisters, so how can my father be concerned about these common rites? ”

Mrs. Pei just smiled when she heard this, she didn't know her brother's temperament, and she always had to go back in everything about kinship.

Wang Xi said again: "A few days ago, my daughter-in-law entered the palace to meet the queen's sister, and I heard that there will be a draft in the palace at the beginning of next year. ”

Huan Xian was surprised: "Next year is not a draft year, is it an exception?" ”

Wang Xi said with a smile: "Yes, it is indeed a gift from heaven, and it is for the girls who have delayed their marriage due to the national funeral." And that's not the only blessing! ”

She said mysteriously, and even Afu, who was bored and ate crabs, pricked up her ears and waited for the following.

"This year, the age requirement has also been relaxed, originally 14 to 17 years old, this time, as long as there is a recommendation from an official above the sixth grade, you can run from 13 to 20 years old."

Looking at the reaction of the Pei family, Wang Xi was really happy from the bottom of his heart.

She is a lady of the sky, born with great responsibilities and attracted the attention of everyone.

Afu felt that both the Pei family and the Xiang family lacked a mother.

If you can send a palace person, everything will be taken care of.

Just like Jin Heng's brother's family, after the two girls entered the palace, the entire Mu family was completely different.

It's just that it's hard to enter the palace, there are seventy-two concubines in the three palaces and six courtyards, how many drops are there in the rain and dew?

Except for the queen mother, Qiao Guifei, the daughter of General Qiao Feng, the rest are mostly unknowns, and the two sisters Mu are also very well-born, and the chances of seeing Tianyan are only few.

Afu originally wanted to say it, but now on the occasion of Wang Xi, she chose to be a gourd with a sawed mouth, so she didn't have to make trouble for herself.

Fortunately, Huan Xian asked for her: "If there is a girl of the right age in our family, we will all be happy." ”

"Naturally, there are no suitable sisters in my family, I don't know if the girl of Sister Manman is of the right age?"

Shuyu shook his head: "Shu'er is pampered, it is more comfortable to marry a flat-headed common man, and entering the palace makes Sister Ah anxious." ”

Afu smiled: "Brother and sister forgot, Shuer is born in December, and he is only twelve years old, which is younger than the lowest age, even if we have a heart, we are helpless." ”

Huan Xian's face flushed, she really couldn't remember her niece's birthday, so she hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Then I don't know if the sisters of my sister-in-law are suitable?" ”

In fact, Afu has just gone through the sisters in her heart: the two sisters are not outstanding, and they are useless when they enter the palace, and the sister Xiang Yu is a beauty, but she is only eight years old this year, too young, and she has not yet entered the family tree, and she is still with her mother's lowly status, and she is not called "the daughter of an official." ”

What's more, her aunt is so charming, even if Xiang Yu can enter the palace, she will not agree to come to A-Niang.

Afu replied, "No." But my sister-in-law's sister is the queen, so we don't have to worry. ”

Shu Yu nodded: "Afu is right. ”

Huan Xian blushed again, a little embarrassed, and looked at her husband as if asking for help, but Ji Heng didn't pay attention to it at all, and was pouring wine for her father.

Seeing that Shuyu was so good to Afu, Huan Xian was extremely envious.

Huan Xian is Wang Xi's cousin, and Mrs. Pei and Mrs. Huan are both Wang Xi's father, the sister-in-law of Wang Ji, the current right minister of Xitai.

However, among the three families, Pei Jingsheng and Wang Ji have no children, and the relationship between husband and wife can be called "very generous" in the eyes of outsiders.

The Huan family is different.

Huan Xian's father, Huan Chong, is over 70 years old this year, more than 20 decades older than his mother, Huan Wang.

Huan Chong Zhishi was the last right minister of Xitai, and when he was young, he was called a suave man and famous in the capital. The wife of the dregs was abandoned after the hairline, and there was no child, only Aunt Liu gave birth to the eldest son, Huan Xiu.

Huan Xian's biological mother, Huan Wang, was married to fill the house, and later gave birth to two daughters, Huan Xian also has a younger sister Huan Yi, married to Wang Xi's younger brother Wang Chuzhi.

Huan Chong from his youth to his old age, this cool character has not changed, and now he is seventy years old, and the beautiful rooms at home are wave after wave.

Now the Huan Wang family is also old and decrepit, and failed to give birth to a son-in-law, the couple is becoming more and more like strangers, often not seen each other for several months, Huan Mansion is actually an Aunt Liu, relying on giving birth to the only male, began to specialize.

Huan Xian has never seen the love of his parents since he was a child, and he is extremely eager for a considerate relationship, who would have thought that Ji Heng is a big heart.

Afu didn't expect her to be so sentimental.

She originally wanted to compliment the queen like this, but she thought that she could make her sister-in-law happy, but she peeked over, but she didn't change much.

Before he could move his gaze, Wang Xi suddenly raised his eyes, and the two looked at each other.

Panicked, Afu hurriedly looked away.

Wang Xi glanced at her and said to Mrs. Pei with a smile: "Auntie, do you know that in fact, the second brother and sister also have a mother in the family?" ”

Old Madam Pei said curiously: "I didn't know that you still had sisters who entered the palace?" ”

Shu Yu also turned his face to look at her.

Afu was a little embarrassed, but she felt very happy when she mentioned the Mu family: "When I go back to my mother-in-law, my sister-in-law thinks that it is my godmother's family, that is, my mother's sister-in-law's mother's family." When I was a child, I was fostered with my second brother in Yuyang Mu's family. ”

Huan Xian opened a pair of phoenix eyes wide, and said enviously: "The second sister-in-law actually has two maiden families, and it is really a mother-daughter fate." ”

Ah Fu immediately said: "My brother and sister are really right, my mother-in-law treats me so well, but I think I have three mothers!" ”

She said sincerely, and she was a little innocent and naïve, which made everyone at the table laugh, and Mrs. Pei was especially happy: "Ah Xi and Ah Xian, one is my niece, the other is my niece, now you are my own daughter, and our family is all together!" ”

Ji Heng smiled at Shuyu: "Where did the second brother think that he would become my brother-in-law at a Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet!" ”

The family is desperate again.

Wang Xi couldn't help laughing, but he still wanted to lead the topic to the two ladies of the Mu family.

Fang Cai Afu is obviously no one in the family who can't be elected to the palace, but if she wants to say that she has become the queen's sister, this confused favor can't be given.

It happened that a few days ago, when she entered the palace, her sister told her that Afu had entered the palace with Mu Niangniang's biological mother in the name of visiting relatives, and Wang Xi wanted to take advantage of this stubble to press Afu's favor to the queen on Mu Niangniang's head.

After everyone finished laughing, she wanted to mention this stubble again, but the naïve Huan Xian asked curiously first: "That lady in the palace is the sister of the second sister-in-law?" ”

Afu said: "Three years ago, my eldest sister Mu Zhen was able to enter the palace to serve, and the second sister also entered the palace as a maid in order to have a care. Now my eldest sister is Shuyuan Niangniang, and my second sister has just been crowned a lover this year. ”

Mrs. Pei sighed: "The relationship between the two sisters is really good. ”

Afu Weiwei, in fact, the second sister is not the biological daughter of the godmother, the aunt who gave birth to her has already been betrayed by Mu Ganniang, and no one is allowed to mention it, and Afu also heard the eldest brother of the Mu family mention it by chance.

Mr. Pei barely opened his mouth during the banquet, so he wiped his hands and left the table.

The three daughters-in-law and two sons hurriedly stood up to greet their father.

Huan Xian asked quietly, "Auntie, is Auntie unhappy?" ”

Ji Heng shook his hand and said to his wife: "Daddy has always been like this, you don't have to think about it." ”

Mrs. Pei also comforted her: "Your aunt thinks he's tired, don't worry about him, let's eat ours." ”

Afu had already discovered that Master Pei was a hands-off shopkeeper and ignored all family affairs.

Although he has never taken a concubine in his life, such a husband can't be considered a good match, right?

She peeked at Shuyu.

In the past few days of marriage, she is still very satisfied with her husband, and she has also touched his temperament.

He is strategic, perhaps fighting too much outside, but when it comes to the house, he likes to go straight and cut through the mess quickly.

He seems to have a rough heart, but he is always thick and fine, and he does not hesitate to give her the support and sweetness she needs.

This can be regarded as a very successful marriage.
