Chapter 324: Meeting at the City Gate
No matter how reluctant she was, she had to admit it, so Mrs. Liu had to chase over and over again to tell Mrs. Hu what her son likes to eat, what he likes to do, and what to pay attention to.
At first, Mrs. Hu listened carefully, and then she watched her sister repeat it a few times, and she was a little annoyed to listen to it.
Mrs. Hu still took her own carriage and left, and when she got into the carriage, Uncle Liu took a small box from the housekeeper and handed it to Mrs. Hu. Let her take it.
Mrs. Liu watched the carriage drive out of the door, and immediately sat on the ground and cried, but Uncle Liu ignored her. just said to the Jiang family:
"Take someone to look after Miss, if she does anything more, be careful that I skin you."
Mrs. Hu looked at her nephew who was still crying next to her, and sighed heavily in her heart! Take this child back, I don't know what Master Hu thinks.
Mrs. Hu didn't expect to bring a child home as soon as she returned to Beijing.
When the carriage drove to the gate of the city and lined up to leave the city, the Lin family brought by Mrs. Hu sat on the shelf outside the car, and suddenly said:
"Madam, the carriage in front is a merchant's. I have seen Miss Shang Si use it, and the carriage shelf is also Miss Si's capable girl Lilac. ”
Mrs. Hu was holding the child with one hand, and when she heard this, she said:
"Oh? Then I'm queuing up now, you go down and ask, is it that the fourth lady and they have also entered Beijing? Then you can go all the way back. ”
"Yes!"
Lin and his family jumped down from the carriage and went up to say hello. Lilac was also very pleasantly surprised when she saw that it was Lin everyone's.
Everyone in Lin is familiar with them, but they didn't expect to meet here. Lilac also hurriedly got out of the carriage to salute.
"Steward Lin, have you also arrived in the capital?"
As she spoke, Lilac looked before and after, only to see the Hu family's carriage lined up behind her house. It's been this afternoon, and there are a lot of people out of the city, and there are a lot of carriages, and they are all crowded into two queues.
Lin family's finger horse lane:
"Is this the fourth lady coming to Beijing?"
"No, it's me and Sister Chun Tao who came to send something to Miss San. Originally, I wanted to send Hongxing to take care of the third lady, but she didn't take in the girl over there. No, I have to go back again, Hongxing is crying, inside, Sister Chun Tao is still comforting. ”
Everyone knows that Hongxing is the third girl. When I heard about this, I laughed.
Lilac also asked:
"When did Steward Lin come to the capital?"
Steward Lin smiled:
"I came here at noon today, so I don't have to rush back, I'm here with my wife."
Lilac immediately said:
"Ah, then you have to salute Madame."
After saying that, he immediately turned around and greeted Chun Tao and Hongxing, who were still in the car:
"Sister Chuntao, Mrs. Hu is in a carriage behind our carriage. Let's go and have a salute. bar. ”
Spring peaches and red apricots both got off the carriage. When the curtain was lifted, Lin Jiajia also glanced at it gently, there was indeed no master, only these girls. I don't understand what to send in a carriage, three girls to send.
Chun Tao took the cloves and red apricots to Mrs. Hu's carriage, stood outside the car and saluted Mrs. Hu inside:
"The slave has seen the lady."
Everyone Lin also hurriedly went to the car window to say:
"Madam, I didn't expect us to pick up the young master, and we happened to meet a few girls from the fourth lady. They sent something to the third lady to the capital. ”
"Oh, Chun Tao, are you going back to Baiyuan right away?"
"Yes."
"That's good, we're just going all the way."
As he spoke, the carriage in front of him moved. The coachman shouted backwards:
"Sister Chun Tao, you can go."
Mrs. Hu hurriedly shouted:
"Get back in the car and get out of town."
Chun Tao saluted again, and then hurried back to the car.
The previous carriage was the carriage of the breeze. Qingfeng also knew that it was Mrs. Hu in the carriage behind. But he didn't have to go to Mrs. Hu.
Mrs. Hu's visit to Liu's house, when Mrs. Hu left Liu's house, the breeze was all clear. Knowing some of the decisions made by the Liu family, even Qingfeng said secretly:
"This Uncle Liu is actually a smart person. If you don't send this child to Baiyuan, maybe the Hou Ye will rectify their family. ”
The carriage drove out of the capital, and Qingfeng did not stop the carriage. However, after leaving the city, the merchant's carriage stopped on the other side, allowing Madame Hu's carriage to go ahead before it followed.
Mrs. Hu and Lin who were sitting in the carriage said:
"The girl taught by these four young ladies is also polite, no wonder Hou Ye fell in love with the fourth young lady."
Lin everyone's response:
"It's a pity that the fourth lady didn't pass on the beauty of Mrs. Shang, like the old man Shang, and the other daughters of the business, when they grow up, they are all as beautiful as immortals."
Mrs. Hu also nodded and said:
"So, no one is perfect. Compared with these four young ladies on the outside, that is, Qingxiu, in her own home, maybe her girls are more delicate than her, but as long as she goes, it is she who can't take your eyes off. ”
The Lin family also chatted with Mrs. Hu and said:
"I've seen all the daughters of the merchants, and I want the slave to say that the most beautiful one has to be counted as the third."
"Well, the third child has a heroic spirit, and she looks brighter, but that girl's temperament is not easy to manage. I'm impatient, I don't know what to do with this in the army. I heard that I was liked by Miss Lei and became a person next to Miss Lei. ”
"I heard that the current business master goes to get drunk every day in addition to taking care of things in the shop. Alas, I don't know what this old man Shang did, why did he let Mrs. Shang move out of the house with her children? ”
Mrs. Hu didn't answer this, but she was sighing in her heart, it is not easy to be a woman, and it is even more difficult to be a woman to be a mother!
Mrs. Hu felt that she admired Mrs. Shang's courage. With so many children out of the business, in the future, the children's family affairs will be dealt with, everything will have to come by themselves, even if the children are well-behaved, but some things have to be a mother to worry about that heart!
I saw Mrs. Shang in Baiyuan City, and I saw my sister's appearance in the capital. My sister doesn't have the courage of Mrs. Shang, so she is angry with her brother-in-law. In this way, my own master is still the best. Although he is not very motivated now, he has been guarding the prefect for 12 years. said that he was going to check on these officials from all over the country next year, and I don't know if this inspection will make the master move.
It's not good to move, and it's not good not to move. I am afraid that I will move to a remote mountainous area, and the conditions will not be good. Don't move, the lord hasn't moved for more than ten years, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep it this time. Alas, it is better to marry a businessman like Mrs. Shang. followed the master and ran around.
Along the way, Mrs. Hu was taking care of Liu Shenghai, who was crying and falling asleep, while thinking wildly.
