On the second day of spring, when she returned to the courtyard in the morning, even the old lady could see that her complexion was exceptionally good this morning, and she couldn't help but joke a few words like "the saying that Xiao Beisheng is newlywed" is really true, Mrs. Peng also insisted on being consistently bitter and mean, especially today, she couldn't get used to the joy of her nephew and daughter-in-law who was constantly overflowing from her bones, and her mouth was like a piece of sour ginger that had been soaked in old vinegar for ten years: "If you want me to say that Brother Ting's daughter-in-law makes people run errands every day to send drinks and food to Hanlin Courtyard, I don't know if it's really to be considerate of Brother Ting, Or did he deliberately distract Brother Ting, but Brother Ting finally won the appreciation of Master Mo, and how long did it take to be appointed as a compiler? can take on this important responsibility, it is time to fulfill public duties without distraction, but in the past few days I have lived in the duty hall and not gone home, yesterday I actually took a leave, not to mention how Shangfeng thinks about it, I am afraid that my colleagues will slander it, which is not good for the promotion of the future career, and I don't know what Brother Ting came back from leave for yesterday, if it is really just for personal distraction and neglect of public office, but it is not Brother Ting's daughter-in-law. ”

In addition to the four ladies who are about to give birth and have difficulty moving, the daughters-in-law, brothers and sisters of the long room of Xuan Zhutang generally cannot be absent, but the time and Lan Xin and a few girls in the clan will go back to Xiyuan first after the old lady finishes eating, and only the daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law are still gossiping with the old lady.

"Brother Ting'er is newly married, and he is the eldest grandson of his sister-in-law, and he does not have a son and a half daughter under his knees, whether it is Shangfeng or his colleagues, he can understand such a situation, and he will not be seriously detained in the hall for a whole month and will not let him go home, since the worldly people can be tolerant, why should the second sister-in-law be held accountable."

Chun Gui knew in his heart, knowing that the third lady's righteous words this time were not to defend her, of course she would not be tricked by Mrs. Peng, so she stood up and responded: "Uncle reminded his nephew a few days ago, saying that the emperor has officially issued a decree to give marriage, if Mrs. Yi did not mention the recognition of relatives last time, the nephew and daughter-in-law do not need to rush to the door to congratulate, now although the Jin State Mansion has not been able to divide its heart to organize the recognition banquet for a while, this will not change, so the uncle told him to carefully prepare the gift of congratulatory makeup, I'm worried that I haven't experienced these things, and I'm negligent, and I went home yesterday to supervise this matter. ”

"Brother Ting's daughter-in-law will have a relationship commensurate with Miss Dong's sisters in the future, and the congratulatory gift really can't be simple, and it is indeed more secure for Brother Ting'er to see it personally." The old lady bowed her head and said: "The makeup gift is not in a hurry, but the matter of coming to the door to congratulate cannot be delayed, when does Chun'er plan to go to the Jin State Mansion?" ”

"The granddaughter-in-law originally wanted to invite her grandmother today, but the uncle reviewed the gift list yesterday, and added two more things as appropriate, saying that it was a collection from the past, but there was no need to go out to buy it, and since the congratulatory gift has been prepared, the granddaughter-in-law wants to go today."

The old lady was already smiling and was about to agree, and Mrs. Peng chewed on the ten-year-old vinegar soaked sour ginger in her mouth again: "Speaking of Mrs. Yi, she recognized Brother Ting's daughter-in-law as her goddaughter, this is the recognition of the Yi and Gu families, and Brother Ting's daughter-in-law congratulated her or used her own makeup, no one would have a second word, how could it turn out that she used Brother Ting's money and goods?" Brother Ting didn't ask the old lady for permission in this matter, and we didn't see the gift list at a glance, although Brother Ting was the head of the Xuanzhutang family, it would be unfair to act like this. ”

The third lady was silent.

Even the return of spring is silent.

The old lady was furious: "You still keep saying that Brother Ting's daughter-in-law, Brother Ting's daughter-in-law, how can you say it, it's just that the Yi and Gu families recognize it."

Dear words?! According to what you say, the confession banquet should not be organized by the Jin State Mansion, and it is reasonable for Mrs. Yi's maiden family to handle it?! Mrs. Yi is the daughter-in-law who married into the Jin State Mansion, and the daughter she recognizes has nothing to do with the Jin State Duchess? Shouldn't the Duchess of Jin recognize Chun'er, her godgranddaughter? Dong and Zhao can't be considered in-laws?! Brother Ting used his own money and goods to prepare gifts for his daughter-in-law, and he didn't touch a penny in the public, so he needs to ask your aunt for permission, and he has to give you the gift list first? ! I think you're a money-obsessed person! ”

Mrs. Peng was once again blushed by the old lady's training, so Chungui once again calmly suffered Mrs. Peng's heavy two eyes.

Of course, Lan Ting didn't ask about going to the Jin State Mansion to congratulate at all, but Chun Gui had to defend herself like this, otherwise it would not be in line with her ordinary temperament of never suffering, she didn't know if Mrs. Peng had such a keen insight, but doing so could ensure that Mrs. Peng was not suspicious to the greatest extent.

As for choosing to go to the door today to congratulate, on the one hand, it is to fulfill the lie, and on the other hand, it is also to persuade Shu Niangzi to find an opportunity.

Because Emperor Hongfu has issued an edict to give marriage, Dong Mingzhu is no longer suitable for staying in the inner court, and has already been taken home to be married, I heard that Chungui came to congratulate, she accompanied Mrs. Yi to greet each other in front of the weeping flower door, and the mouth was commensurate, and the close attitude was also the first two times cold but not rude, the attitude was completely different, if it weren't for Mrs. Yi seeing that Chungui had something to say in front of her daughter, she deliberately found an excuse to support her to avoid, Dong Mingzhu was obviously willing to have a long talk with Chungui.

"Chun'er might as well speak up if she has something to say." Mrs. Yi no longer called Chungui a "lady", and when even the servants around her were dismissed, she signaled directly, but she saved Chungui and a few more tactful words to find the entry point.

"It's not a big deal, don't hide it from Mrs., last time on the birthday of the Queen Mother, I heard a few words from Xie Zhaoyi, and knew that she was anxious about the British government's insistence on abandoning Xie Siniang, and then I also heard Shu Shimu say a few words, but Shu Shimu didn't know the inside story in detail, I still left an opinion at that time Shu Shimu was a little worried, and I was surprised, but I only heard my uncle say yesterday, it turned out that Shen Ge Lao was considering marrying with the British government, and then I suddenly realized why Shu Shimu was worried, Shu Shimu took great care of me, I also want to share her worries, so I thought about finding Mrs. Xun today to inquire about what happened to Mrs. Xie's dismissal. ”

"It turns out that this is the reason why you are inquiring about the right person." Mrs. Yi took a sip of tea before she said: "Siniang's husband Cheng Yu is the grandson of the British Gong Cheng Duxingsan, and when his mother Jiang chose a wife for him, she intended to be the niece of her own family, but the girl had a thin life, and died of illness before she could reach the end of the year, although the Jiang family still had girls of the right age, but they were all concubines, and the British princess was unwilling to let the grandson marry the concubine, so in the end, Cheng Yu asked for the Xie daughter as his wife, this was not out of Jiang's wishes, so she was dissatisfied with Xie Siniang's daughter-in-law from the beginning.

And Cheng Yu and Siniang husband and wife are very harmonious, seeing that his wife is often blamed by her mother, she inevitably justifies Siniang and pleads, which angers the Jiang family even more, when Siniang gave birth to the eldest son for Cheng Yu, Jiang's mother will take a good concubine for Cheng Yu, but Cheng Yu is unwilling to take a concubine, and moves out of the country to refuse, saying that he is still white and has an heir under his knees, and he is not allowed to take concubines according to the law.

At first, Cheng Yu's father, Cheng Fang, was not dissatisfied with Siniang's eldest daughter-in-law, but he was annoyed that his eldest son Cheng Yu had not been able to pass the imperial examination for a long time, but Jiang said that Cheng Yu was listening

believed in Siniang's demagogy, and in order not to accept concubines, he had no intention of taking the imperial examination, and said that Siniang was the culprit who hindered Cheng Yushi's progress. Then Cheng let go of a room of good concubines, so that Jiang was very dissatisfied, often harsh, and later decided to send the good concubine back, ordered Siniang to handle this matter, Siniang did not dare to disobey the mother-in-law, had to obey the order, Cheng Fang knew that his daughter-in-law actually released his good concubine, furious, despite the fact that Siniang had added a pair of children to Cheng Yu, insisted on abandoning Siniang. ”

Spring Return: ......

It is inevitable that Xie Siniang will be upset: "Then can this matter still be turned around?" ”

"The British duke has so many children and grandchildren, Cheng Rui can be said to be the grandson who is least valued by him, and he is not willing to intervene in this matter at all, not to mention listening to Cheng Fang and Jiang's slander of Siniang, and I also think that Cheng Yu's failure to advance is Siniang's fault, the British duke is a strong temperament, once he makes up his mind, he will not care about public opinion, this marriage is afraid that it will be irreparable, I can only try for Siniang now, and I can't let her bear the charge of seven crimes."

"Since it is irretrievable, then why didn't Xie Siniang simply leave?" Spring return asked.

Mrs. Yi looked at her and smiled: "It is true that reconciliation and divorce should be proposed, even if it is such a custom now, Siniang and divorce cannot remarry after returning, but it is better than bearing the crime of no mistake." ”

Chun Gui bowed his head again and again, but saw Mrs. Yi and sighed: "But Siniang is not willing to reconcile, saying that Cheng Yu has never given up, and she will never live up to Cheng Yu's insistence, and the husband and wife even swore a poisonous oath, if they still can't make the elders of the family change their minds in the end, the two of them would rather be martyred!" ”

Chungui couldn't help but whisper: "Instead of taking such a desperate road, it is better to resist to the end, at most, it is only to be expelled by the British public, and Cheng Saburo is not an economic career, the two couples are free away from the Cheng family, but there is no glory and wealth, but they can stay together." ”

Mrs. Yi was stunned, but she didn't refute: "Chun'er's words are actually reasonable, Siniang just has too many concerns, she doesn't want to divorce Cheng Yu, let alone implicate her two children, but if they can only take this desperate road as parents, who can the two children count on in the future?" It's really better to leave far away, a few people in a family can live on the crops, and they can also enjoy themselves. ”

"If Madame believes me, it is better to find an opportunity for me to persuade Xie Niangzi, and besides, there are some things, I really want to ask Xie Niangzi to inquire." Although Chungui said that he could not immediately have a "mother-daughter relationship" with Mrs. Yi, he was unwilling to hide his intentions and use Mrs. Yi in a roundabout way.

"If the British government wants to marry the fifth mother of the Shen family, it should be for Cheng Yu, Mrs. Han is not as harsh as the Jiang family, and I haven't heard of Cheng Yu's bad habits, but his brother Cheng Zhu is weak, Cheng Yu will inevitably be involved in the title dispute, Shu Niangzi's temperament I also know a little, I probably don't want my daughter to fall into such a complicated power struggle in the family internal affairs, this is the inevitable partiality of a mother, but unfortunately, things often do not go as expected." Mrs. Yi thought that her daughter Mingzhu would not escape the fate of marrying into the royal family after all, and her expression couldn't help but be a little sad.

But she quickly got rid of her sorrow and put forward her opinion: "In my opinion, life is not perfect, the mansions of high-ranking families have the right to fight for profits, relatively speaking, Mrs. Han is much better than the Jiang family, and Shu Niangzi does not have to worry that her daughter will be scolded by her mother-in-law if she marries into the British government." ”

"Don't hide it from Mrs., I also heard about one thing, the British prince originally had an Aunt Gu, who suddenly fell ill and died, but I don't know if this matter is related to Mrs. Han?"

Mrs. Yi said "ah": "Gu's family actually fell ill and died?!" ”
