Chapter 291

"Fifth Young Master!" Aunt Xiu hurriedly waved her hand at An Yuanzhi and asked An Yuanzhi not to say any more.

"There's nothing wrong with this marriage, I'm very satisfied," An Jinxiu said, "Yuanzhi, thank you for this congratulations." ”

Aunt Xiu looked at An Jinxiu carefully, and from An Jinxiu's face, she really couldn't see the slightest dissatisfaction. "I've also inquired," Aunt Xiu sighed, "General Shangguan is a little old, and there are a pair of younger siblings born to his stepmother in the family, one is as old as the fifth young master, but the younger sister is only six years old. Second Miss, after you pass, you will have to raise his younger siblings. ”

"It's nothing more than living," An Jinxiu still smiled, Shangguan Yong's pair of younger siblings were actually good, but in their previous lives, they didn't take care of them for a day, and now that they think about it, they are also the people she An Jinxiu owes.

"Alas!" Aunt Xiu sighed worriedly, as a mother, she wouldn't think about Shangguan Yong's good at the moment, she was just worried about An Jinxiu, her daughter was just sixteen, and she was the same age as a flower but she had to serve a man who was nearly thirty years old.

"Mother, don't worry, I will live in peace," An Jinxiu said with a smile, "Mother, my daughter is going to be the general's wife, and she is the general's wife." ”

An Jinxiu's general's wife made Aunt Xiu and An Yuanzhi smile bitterly, Shangguan Yong, a guerrilla general from the fifth grade, when did a family like An have a son-in-law from the fifth rank?

"Are you talking?" Aunt Feng, who was in the same courtyard as Aunt Xiu, walked into the house with a plate of snacks at this time.

"Thank you, Sister Feng," Aunt Xiu hurriedly got up and thanked her.

An Jinxiu also got up, and the dim sum sent by Aunt Feng looked like it had been put for a few days, watching her mother thank Aunt Feng again and again, An Jinxiu was sad again. The An family, who would have thought that even a small snack for a concubine would have to be rewarded by the lady of the main room.

"Second Miss," Aunt Feng smiled at An Jinxiu, "I've heard that Madam wants the eldest young master to send you out, this is a good luck." ”

An Jinxiu's smile on her face remained unchanged, but she said in her mouth, "Madame, that's a joke, how can you take it seriously?" When I go out, I still have to count on Yuan Zhi to send it. ”

Aunt Feng was surprised, who in this house doesn't know that An Jinxiu is a face-saving person, this time this person has changed his personality? Do you know you have a brother-in-law?

"Do you really want the Fifth Young Master to send you?" Aunt Xiu couldn't believe An Jinxiu's words and asked.

"Yuanzhi doesn't send me, who will send me?" An Jinxiu looked at An Yuanzhi and smiled.

An Yuanzhi's handsome face turned red, and then he raised his eyebrows at An Jinxiu, "Second sister, can't wait to go out?" ”

"Fifth Young Master!" Aunt Xiu hurriedly shouted, it is rare that the two sisters and brothers can talk a few words, don't talk and quarrel.

An Yuanzhi regretted it after saying this, what he said to this sister in his life, he counted it with one palm, why did he suddenly talk about this kind of joke? An Yuanzhi thinks that he is not familiar with An Jinxiu at all.

Who is An Jinxiu? In addition to admiring vanity, he is also a person with a long and exquisite heart, and he stomped his feet lightly at An Yuanzhi at the moment, pretending to be shy, and said to Aunt Xiu, "Mother, look at Yuanzhi, he bullied me!" ”

Aunt Xiu and Aunt Feng both stood on the spot.

An Yuanzhi was also stupid, looking at An Jinxiu for a long time and speechless.

Miss An Er has always been superior to others, and she has always liked to hold a shelf in front of people, when has she ever been so coquettish with a red face?

Aunt Feng did not have children, and she has always been closest to Aunt Xiu, and when she looked at An Jinxiu carefully, Aunt Feng secretly sighed to herself. An Jinxiu and Aunt Xiu's appearance are almost the same, they are the colors of Allure, otherwise how could the girl embroidered with Duanshui next to Mrs. back then become an embroidery aunt in the house, and raised a son and a daughter for Tai Shi? It's just that after Aunt Feng smacked her tongue, she also sighed secretly in her heart, what if she was so beautiful that she fell into the city and the country? The concubine who was born in slavery wants to marry the concubine of Bai Ding Manghan, and she is just a thin person.

"Second Miss went to Aunt Xiu?" In the big room, after listening to her mother-in-law's advice, Mrs. Qin's face did not change, but just waved her hand to let her mother-in-law retreat.

"How did she end up there?" The third lady, An Jinqu, looked disdainful, sat down and said, "At this time, An Jinxiu remembered that she was not born to her mother, but to an aunt?" ”

"Shut up!" Mrs. Qin's face sank, "Who taught you to be so vitriol?" ”

An Jinqu lowered her head, she was not very afraid of her father An Taishi, but she was afraid of Qin's biological mother.

"Do your needlework well!" Mrs. Qin patted the table, "Your daughter's family should be dignified and magnificent, so that your future husband will love you and respect you!" ”

"How old am I?" An Jinqu said shyly.

"You are only one year younger than Jinxiu," Mrs. Qin's tone sounded cold, and she said to An Jinqu, "If she has already left the cabinet, this time your father will definitely let you marry into the Shangguan family!" When were you young? ”

"Then he might as well kill me!" An Jinqu shouted, "I heard that Shangguan Yong is still a broken appearance, and he can scare people to death!" ”

"Smack!" With a bang, Mrs. Qin slapped the table hard, her youngest daughter can't be compared with the eldest daughter who is the crown princess, the crown princess An Jinyan is really dignified and generous, and her mood is invisible, but this little daughter is reckless all day long, where is it like her daughter.

Under the pressure of Mrs. Qin, An Jinqu lowered his head and embroidered needlework. An Jinxiu's fate has made An Jinqu laugh several times in his room, and An Jinxiu, who thought she was the daughter of An Fu, was finally given out as a thank you gift by her father. No matter how beautiful it is, how about reading more poetry books? The little lady raised the little lady, how can it turn the sky upside down! An Jinqu embroidered the Hanmei picture in his hand, thinking that An Jinxiu was still happy in his heart, so he almost hummed a little song.

Seeing her daughter like this, Mrs. Qin shook her head and didn't say anything more about An Jinqu. An Jinxiu actually ran to see Aunt Xiu, to the surprise of Mrs. Qin, after An Jinxiu was born, she raised this concubine by her side, An Jinxiu has always been taught to look down on this mother-in-law, how could she run to say hello this time? Could it be this girl who knows the twists and turns in this family affair?

"Mother, what do you think of my embroidery?" An Jinqu showed a cold plum that he had embroidered to Mrs. Qin.

"That's right," Mrs. Qin said lightly. Only a plum blossom was embroidered crookedly, thinking of the flowers, birds, fish and insects embroidered by An Jinxiu, and then looking at the embroidery of her own daughter, Mrs. Qin was full of displeasure. Thinking that An Jinxiu was born to Aunt Xiu, Mrs. Qin once again confirmed that this was born to obstruct her eyes and block her heart.

"Mother, are you unhappy again?" An Jinqu saw his mother like this, and asked, "Who provoked you again?" ”

"It's all right," said Mrs. Qin, "you embroider yours." She couldn't tell her daughter that she remembered the woman in the side yard again. Aunt Xiu was originally the maid of the Qin family, the eldest daughter of the Qin family, that is, when Mrs. Qin went out of the cabinet, as Mrs. Qin's dowry, she followed the sedan chair into Anfu, and Aunt Xiu was ten years old at that time. Mrs. Qin saw that this little girl was honest and duty-bound, and she was a servant of her mother's family, so she let Aunt Xiu serve her. Who would have thought that a ten-year-old girl, when she grew up, would be as beautiful as a flower, a girl who served tea and water, hooked her master to bed, and secretly married a bead fetus.

The hundred-year-old family of the An family has never had a concubine who was born as a servant, and Mrs. Qin was once the joke of the whole Qi Shun Dynasty, where is there such a blind housewife as her, who raised a seductive fox by her side for five years, and she was about to give birth, only to know that there was another aunt in the house.

The more Mrs. Qin sat and thought about it, the more angry she became, and every time she remembered this past incident back then, she felt suffocated in her chest and couldn't breathe. I wanted to ask An Jinxiu to ask what happened, but Mrs. Qin thought about it, An Jinxiu was going to marry a martial artist in a month, and this concubine's life was destined to be on the stage, what else did she have to worry about her? This concubine is her tool to take revenge on this cheap maid, and now that the goal has been achieved, An Jinxiu will be a member of the Shangguan family in the future, and she has nothing to do with her.

It's time to think about how to send An Yuanzhi away, Mrs. Qin looked at An Jinqu who was concentrating on embroidery, and her mind flew far away. solved an An Jinxiu, there are still many things waiting for her to worry about in this house.

An Jinxiu sat in her biological mother's room for a long time that day, leaving her not long to make up for her family affection, An Jinxiu just wanted to do her best, and didn't want to leave any regrets in this life.

At the same time, in the Shangguan General's Mansion, Shangguan Yong did not have An Jinxiu's single-minded expectation for marriage. General Shangguan sat in the hall with a sad face, but he didn't expect that An Taishi would really marry his daughter to him, and the family affair was set for a month. Now the matchmaker is waiting in front of him, but Shangguan Yong is embarrassed to tell the matchmaker that he can't get much dowry.

Mrs. Wang patiently waited for Shangguan Yong for a long time, and drank three cups of tea, but she still couldn't wait for Shangguan Yong's reply, so Mrs. Wang habitually smiled on her face and said, "General, you should give me a reply." ”

Shangguan Yong then said, "Can the dowry be less, a thousand taels of silver, I can't get back a thousand taels of silver even if I sell this house." ”

The smirk on Mrs. Wang's face froze, Shangguan Yong is an honest person, no money means no money, don't go around with her, but, Mrs. Wang said to Shangguan Yong, "My general, what you want to marry is the young lady of the Taishi Mansion!" ”

Shangguan Yong nodded and said, "I know," and then this one looked at Mrs. Wang in a daze.

Mrs. Wang waited for Shangguan Yong for a long time, and saw that the prospective groom didn't speak again, so she had to say, "Then general, you give my mother-in-law a quasi-word, how much silver are you going to give for this dowry." ”

Shangguan Yong gritted his teeth and said, "Three hundred taels." ”

"Three, three hundred taels?!" Mrs. Wang almost bit her tongue. To say that in the common people's family, three hundred taels is a large amount, but the other party is the young lady of the Taishi Mansion, although it is a concubine, but it is also the daughter of the Taishi, and a family like An's can marry the young lady of the family home with only three hundred taels? Can there be such a good thing in this world?

Shangguan Yong's forehead was sweating, he was a guerrilla general from the fifth grade, his income was already limited, he still had a pair of younger siblings to raise, three hundred taels was already all his belongings, he couldn't marry for him, let his younger brothers and sisters starve to death, right?

"Three hundred taels is less."

"I, that's all I have."

"Can't do it any more? You're going to marry the daughter of the Grand Master. ”

Shangguan Yong paused, but still shook his head, "Mother Wang, if there is more, I will sell this house." ”

Mrs. Wang looked at the hall she was in, even the tables and chairs were old, not half-old, the kind of old ones with all the paint gone, and I didn't know where the Shangguan general had bought these objects. Mrs. Wang has also heard of this Shangguan general, to say that among the generals of the Qishun Dynasty today, the poorest is this Shangguan general, as if he was treating his stepmother, and the family's family is so empty.

"Or," Shangguan Yong gritted his teeth again, "I'll add another fifty taels, and there's really no more." ”

The corners of Mrs. Wang's eyes twitched, she really wanted to tell the truth to Shangguan Yong, and if she added fifty taels, it would only be three hundred and fifty taels, and she was still one hundred and ten miles away from the request of Mrs. Taishi's 1,000 taels of dowry.

An Jinxiu didn't know at this time that her mother-in-law asked Shangguan Yong for a thousand taels of dowry, in the last life, she made everyone in the house uncomfortable, where could she take care of what happened before she got married?

After returning to his embroidery pavilion from his mother's side courtyard that day, An Jinxiu threw aside the tuanhua brocade clothes embroidered for Mrs. Qin, and the An Jinxiu before her rebirth was also a piece of filial piety, and now she thinks about her filial piety, her mother-in-law is afraid that she will see it in her eyes and be sarcastic in her heart. There is an embroidered girl in the house, the head of the An's house, where is her filial piety? Think about it carefully, how could the Qin family ever wear one of the dresses she made?

In the side courtyard, the clothes on Aunt Xiu and An Yuanzhi were half-old, especially An Yuanzhi, and the two cuffs even had raw edges. When An Jinxiu saw this, she felt sad and guilty, how many clothes she had made for the people in the house over the years, but she forgot that these two should be her dearest people. There is still a month before her wedding date, and An Jinxiu is now working day and night, wanting to get out a winter dress for her mother and younger brother.

Zi Yuan sat next to him to help with the thread management, looking at An Jinxiu's red eyes, Zi Yuan said angrily, "Miss, it's all my fault that my hands are too stupid, otherwise Zi Yuan can help you." ”

An Jinxiu smiled when she heard this, Zi Yuan's heart, but these hands are stupid, and even the threads sewn can be crooked.

Zi Yuan saw An Jinxiu smile, and sighed herself, there are many people who laugh at her own young lady in the house recently, and they all say that the future uncle is not a good person, Zi Yuan is so worried that she can't eat or sleep these days, if it weren't for the strict access control of An Mansion, it's not that she, a little girl, can break through, Zi Yuan really wants to see with her own eyes what Miss's future husband looks like.

"If you sigh again, your face will be wrinkled," An Jinxiu glanced at Zi Yuan, and said with a smile, "What are you worried about?" ”

"I heard that my uncle broke his face when he was fighting, and he didn't even have a nose on his face," Zi Yuan said sadly, "Miss, how scary do you say a face without a nose is?" ”

An Jinxiu sneered.
