Chapter 6: Second Master Yi's family is here

Just a few days later, on a sunny and sunny day, Yi Erye Yi Tangquan and his party came to Bainian County. Yi Xihu got the news early in the morning and personally greeted him at the gate of the city, and it was not until near noon that he led people to the gate of Yifu.

Yifu opened the main door today, and the masters and servants were all waiting at the door, which can be seen solemn. Lin has always been a reasonable person, and she never leaves a handle on people, no matter how embarrassed this relative is when she leaves the capital, no matter what waves they will make in her life in the future, she has to count all the courtesies.

Yi Xiangxiang yawned and stood beside her brother Yi Luochuan, she was wearing a pink shirt today, the sun in autumn was not too big, but her cheeks were red, like freshly ripe red peaches, very cute; But she couldn't help but yawn in public and half-squint, which seemed not so regular.

Yi Luochuan sighed slightly, a little helpless at his sister's actions but didn't say anything. This girl is very squeamish, just now she disliked the dazzling sun and wanted to use an umbrella, but she was glanced at by the Lin family before giving up.

One after another, the carriage stopped steadily in a shout of "huh~", and the dust rolled up made the people around them braced their sleeves to cover it. When the coachman dismounted and placed his pedals, a loud male voice came from the leading carriage: "Home, home!" Then I saw the curtain of the car be opened, and two middle-aged men stepped down.

The two men who got out of the carriage were both good-looking, and looked about the same age; That's right, these two middle-aged men are Yi Xihu who greeted the city gate and Yi Tangquan, the second master of Yi who just came to Centennial County, it turned out that after Yi Xihu greeted Yi Tangquan at the city gate, he and his cousin returned in the same car, laughing and talking all the way.

Yi Xihu was wearing a purple robe embroidered with green stripes, and he pointed to Yi Fu and said, "This is the place!" ”

"Daddy, hug~" Yi Xiangxiang said that his leg was really going to break, and this second uncle was really unreliable, and the message said that it was the right time, and it was all morning! However, no matter how much she has grievances and complaints, it is difficult to say it, so she can only ask Yi Xihu for a hug, and she doesn't want to stand down for a minute.

"Hey, my baby Xiangxiang!" Yi Xihu picked up Yi Xiangxiang and kissed her on the face, almost making Yi Xiangxiang's mentality explode, and before she could react, she heard her father's loud moan in her ear: "Come, this is the second uncle, call the second uncle!" ”

Yi Xiangxiang was born in Centennial County and had never met Yi Tangquan before. She opened her big eyes and looked at the second uncle in front of her, I have to say that he looks very handsome, but this kind of handsomeness is full of ruffianism, Yi Xiangxiang secretly thought that it is no wonder that the second uncle is not separated from the peachy news, she has heard her grandmother and mother talk about the second uncle's amorous nature in the past, and such a look also has the capital to cross the red dust. Of course, because of years of indulging in wine, Yi Tangquan's face was a little yellow, and his walking steps were also slightly vain, he was wearing a brocade satin robe, with a golden hollow peony flower trim exposed inside, a jade belt tied around his waist, an ivory folding fan in his hand, and a green jade hair crown on top of his head.

"If you want to live a decent life, you have to have a little green on your head!" Yi Xiangxiang thought so in her heart, and her face smiled unconsciously.

"Come, second uncle hug!" Yi Tangquan saw that the white and chubby little niece was very cute, and he stretched out his hand to hug Yi Xiangxiang.

I don't want you to hug me! Yi Xiangxiang shouted in her heart, quickly hugged Yi Xihu's neck, buried her face on her father's shoulder, and made a shy appearance, in order to avoid Yi Tangquan's "clutches".

Yi Xiangxiang's "shyness" at this end caused a burst of laughter, and the Lin family had already greeted Yi Tangquan's wife Huang and others, and after symbolically greeting each other, the group walked into the Yi Mansion and went to the Ci'an Hall in the backyard.

Ci'an Hall is the courtyard of Mrs. Yi's husband and wife, and the elders have no reason to greet them at the door, at this time they are drinking tea in Ci'an Hall, waiting for the juniors to come to see them.

Because it was almost noon, it was lunch time, so everyone did not delay, and they walked quickly to Ci'an Hall.

"Uncle!" Before the little girl brought the futon to kneel and worship, as soon as Yi Tangquan entered the gate of Ci'an Hall, he quickly rushed to the old lady Yi and knelt down, tears fell down, and the Huang family and the children who followed him also knelt down one after another.

Yi Xiangxiang has been put down from Yi Xihu's arms at this time, and the little girl is very cute and stands beside her brother again, admiring the acting skills of this second uncle, I have to say, it is really realistic, and it is enough to win the Oscar in modern times! Yi Xiangxiang was stunned by the second uncle's actions just now, this kneeling was rattling, and it hurt to listen to it. Not to mention her, even Yi Luochuan, who has always been calm, frowned, he had seen this second uncle before, looking at the wind and sunshine, it was completely different from the appearance of crying bitterly at this time, and he was smiling cheerfully at the door just now, this speed of change is also a bit exaggerated.

Lin is accustomed to it, and it is not the first time she has seen Yi Tangquan's "ability to bend and stretch", every time she makes a mistake and asks for forgiveness, this one takes the line of family affection.

Mrs. Yi was aroused by her nephew's "true feelings": "It's been hard all the way, let's sit down first." He stretched out his hand to signal Yi Tangquan to get up, and Yi Xihu next to him helped to mix Yi Tangquan, who had already shouted out of breath, from the floor and placed him in the first Nanguan hat chair on the right side and sat down.

Here, Mrs. Yi also asked the Huang family and others to get up, the Lin family mixed up the Huang family and let her sit next to Yi Tangquan, and the children sat down in turn, in order to balance, some of the children were also arranged to sit down on the left side, and the maids all stood behind their own sons.

Yi Xihu's family also bent down and saluted as the parents of the same head and sat on the left side in turn. Yi Xiangxiang is the youngest, but she is the eldest daughter of Yi Xihu, so she naturally sits in the fourth position on the left side. Miaoqin picked her up and retreated behind her. Yi Xiangxiang's next head also sat Yi Tangquan's two concubines, who looked exactly the same, and sat up straight with folded hands in a regular manner, just like a replica.

Yi Xiangxiang thinks that she has soft bones, and it is good to be able to sit properly, and she doesn't want to think about it if she is straight. When she came to Ci'an Hall before, she was nested in the arms of her grandmother, Mrs. Yi, but today Yi Tangquan's family needs to bow down to the second elder, and Yi Xiangxiang sat alone.

"Nephews and nephews and daughters-in-law say hello to uncle!" Yi Tangquan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, and knelt on the futon with his wife Huang to greet the two old men above.

"Before leaving, my father remembered his uncle, saying that he regretted leaving the house; Over the years, my father has been thinking about my uncle, if it weren't for the mountains and heights of the county, it would have been estimated that it would have been a long time ago, but it's a pity that ......" Yi Tangquan said and began to play the family card, not mentioning that when the family was separated, it was because of his stubble, and his words were full of grief for his father's death.

Well, grief after two years.

There are really no simple characters in the back house, no, swingers also have a bit of brains and know how to tell a little.

"Let's get up. Eh, it's all in the past, and now that you're here, stay well, and in the future, you will worship the family ancestral hall with the big house, and you will also be a family. Old Mrs. Yi Mo knew that her husband was still holding a shelf, so she spoke; She called the Yixi family a big house, and also said that they shared the family ancestral hall, which also showed that they agreed to the merger.

Of course, Mo knew that Yi Tangquan's words aroused her husband's longing, and her husband loved his deceased brother, so it was good for the two to have a small relationship. The rule of the Li Dynasty is that parents are still inseparable, and the two brothers, Yi Kangwen and Yi Kangwu, have not separated even if their parents have passed away for many years; If it weren't for Yi Kangwu's son not becoming a weapon, he would have ruined the family style, and he would not have been separated later. When the news of Yi Kangwu's death came two years ago, Yi Kangwen insisted on returning to Kyoto, but was stopped by his son and daughter-in-law. Yi Xihu was not easy to leave, so he could only send his daughter-in-law Lin to take Chuan'er, who was only seven years old at that time, back to Beijing for funeral.

To be honest, when Mo Shi first knew that this nephew was coming to join the mansion and wanted to reunite, he knew that his husband would definitely abandon his previous suspicions and accept them.

Aunt Mo's words made the second lady Huang put down her heart in an instant, she was always worried that the eldest uncle's family might not agree to merge with the house, after all, her husband is a bastard, who wants to be a family with such a person. Fortunately, the eldest uncle still remembered the old relationship with his father-in-law and agreed.

"My nephew will be filial to the second elder in the future, save the province in the morning and dusk, and bring tea and water......"

"Okay, okay, there are people who serve tea and water, you don't have to worry about this. As long as you don't cause trouble, it is the greatest filial piety to us! Yi Kangwen, the old lady Yi, interrupted his nephew Yi Tangquan's loyalty, and said his inner thoughts very bluntly.

Yi Tangquan knew his uncle's temperament, and he was not angry, so he pulled his children to ask for a salute. It is not in vain that Yi Tangquan works hard, and the people in the second room are more than the big house, which is a multiple.

The group was guided and introduced by Huang and appeared on stage.

"This is the eldest daughter Ruonan, come, say hello to the elders." Huang smiled and beckoned his daughter to step forward.

Yi Ruonan, the eldest daughter of the second room, is twelve years old but slim and elegant, she is wearing a full-breasted skirt, and the plum blossoms on the skirt are very good-looking: "Say hello to my uncle and grandmother; Say hello to my uncle and aunt. "The sound is like a yellow bird, crisp and bright.

followed by his son-in-law Yi Hanchen, who was ten years old this year, and he saluted uprightly, with a modest smile on his white and pure face; But Yi Xiangxiang felt that this smile was not so decent.

Then there is the second daughter Yi Ruofu, who is about six years old, as round and chubby as Yi Xiangxiang, wearing a silver collar around her neck, and her cheeks are also red, and her facial features will not be bad in the future, but the coquettishness on her face has reduced some impression points, but it is normal for children to be a little squeamish. Yi Ruofu said goodbye crisply, and stood aside happily with the gift.

The two girls next to Yi Xiangxiang and a boy on the right side all got up and knelt down in front of the futon to say goodbye.

The concubine Yi Hanxi is from Aunt Feng, who is as old as Yi Luochuan in the big house, and is also nine years old this year; But it's also very old, and it's probably difficult for a concubine.

The two concubines are twins, their looks have been gorgeous, the sister's name is Yi Ruojiao, and the younger sister is called Yi Ruofan, and the two of them salute even more rules. They are from Aunt Wang, who is five and a half years old this year, and they can be suppressed by Yi Ruofu in terms of age, and they are usually enslaved by Yi Ruofu as a sister because of this.

In the end, the two aunts saluted, in the official eunuch's house or the hairpin family, the identity of the aunt is not qualified to ask the elders for peace; They want to greet their wives in the main courtyard of their housemothers, but they are not qualified to greet the old ladies and ladies above. However, as Yi Tangquan's aunt, this is the first time they have met to say goodbye after coming to Centennial County, which means to see each other.

Huang looked at the enchanting Aunt Feng and Aunt Wang in front of him, not only did he feel blocked in his heart, but he also felt dull in front of Lin. Fortunately, after leaving Kyoto, the old lady didn't like the children in the family to indulge in alcohol, so he forced Yi Tangquan to send other aunts who had no children to have a room, otherwise he would not be able to save face at this time.

After the elders say goodbye, it is the juniors who greet each other, and when the complicated rituals are completed one by one, the group moves to the dining room for dinner.

Although there were many people at lunch, it was not lively; First, although they are relatives, after all, they have been separated for so long, and there is always a little estrangement between them; The second is that the two-bedroom family has just come from a tiring journey, and they don't have the heart to enliven the atmosphere.

After eating without saying a word, everyone went back to their own yards under the instructions of the old lady Yi Kangwen to "go back to their own homes and find their own mothers".

Although the south courtyard arranged by the Lin family for the second room is also called the hospital, the place will not be small at all. Huang is very pleased with the new residence, with the main courtyard being airy and bright, the bedding is brand new, the intricate bronze incense burner is lit with soothing incense, and the corners of the interior are decorated with well-cut potted plants.

She arranged a private small courtyard for her three children nearby, and Yi Ruonan even named her small courtyard, called Nanfeng Ju, which was quite proud. In order not to be out of sight and out of mind, the two aunts and several concubines were sent by her far away to live in the southernmost side courtyard.

"Dasou is really attentive, my previous worries are superfluous." Huang arranged the children's living and returned to the main courtyard, and said to Mama Fang beside her.

Mama Fang is the most trusted grandmother of the Huang family, and she has nothing to say: "Even so, Madame still has to please the old lady." Now although the back house is Mrs. Dafang in charge, but the old lady is the biggest master, if you get face in front of her, the future will be better. ”

"What Mama said was reasonable, but when I was in Kyoto, my aunt didn't think much of me; In the end, the big house is biological, and I am just a niece and daughter-in-law. "Yi Tangquan's mother passed away early, so Yi Kangwu doted on this precious son so much that he didn't even renew the strings; Because of this, the Huang family has never served her mother-in-law, and now she is really not used to treating the Mo family as a mother-in-law.

"Madame, this is just thinking left, the old lady has been in business for many years, and her family has no wealth, but she must have some industry. Look at the golden step shake inserted in the head of the eldest lady today, at first glance, it is not a shop in this small place in this century-old county, and it is designated as a gift from the old lady. You have flattered the old lady, and if she misses a little bit in her hand, the dowry she will give to the eldest lady in the future will be a little thicker. "Mama Fang is a real person, and only visible interests are the most direct interests.

If Yi Xiangxiang was here, she would definitely scold this slave pig brain! What is it to please the old lady, what the woman in the back house should rely on most is not the love of her husband? If the Huang family catches up with his husband and urges him to improve, how much will the dowry be a little thicker for the family wealth he earns? And why please anyone?

Huang sat down on the round bench and said, "It's not unreasonable, if I get face in front of the old lady, the second master will also look up to me a little bit, and go to the courtyard of the two aunts less." ”

It's impossible not to go to the yard over there, as long as the second master doesn't go to the Qinglou and doesn't flirt with the girl, you should respectfully burn incense and worship the Buddha! Mama Fang thought so, but it was inconvenient to say it. And at this moment, Huang suddenly thought of something, and asked, "What about the second master, went to the fox spirit again?" ”

Mama Fang nodded with difficulty, and saw that Huang's anger rose, and she picked up the celadon vase on the table and was about to smash it, but Mama Fang quickly stopped her.

"My lady, this is not to be smashed; It's only been a day, and if this is smashed, won't it be a joke for those maids to see! Mama Fang took the vase in Huang's hand and placed it on the desk by the windowsill far away.

Huang couldn't smash the bottle, but he couldn't stand her slapping the table, only to see her slap the table with a slap and no pain: "I'm angry, this is just a lunch break, so I hurriedly went to the fox spirit house, the old lady's side, the big room, so many eyes staring at it, and prostituting during the day, it's just lustful!" ”

When people go to the night, you are also scolding and making Zhi dizzy! Mama Fang's belly slandered. She has served the Huang family for several years, and she really persuaded everything she should have been persuaded, so she could only slander her.

"Then the Wang family is also a shameless person, didn't he give birth to twins? Never be respectful to me, see the heavens against me, if this is a son, then it will be repaid! The more Huang scolded, the more energetic he became.

Mama Fang hurriedly stopped: "It's just an aunt who has broken the sky, why do you want to compete with her?" As for the two little ones, what kind of husband they will be matched with in the future will be up to you to nod, and that's not up to you. ”

"Besides, the two young ladies under Madame's knees are both soft and dignified, delicate and cute, and the son is also motivated, and the future will be good!" Feeling that what she just said was not enough, Mama Fang praised the Huang family again.

"Eh, I'm also dizzy by that fox spirit!" Huang exhaled lightly, relieving the knots in his heart.

"Madame, lie down, you haven't had a good night's sleep this way." Mama Fang stretched out her hand to give Huang's wide clothes.

As soon as Mama Fang said this, Huang suddenly felt that his whole body was sore, he was tired enough to ride the carriage all the way, and he was uncomfortable resting in the inn at night. She opened her arms and asked Mama Fang to replace her wide clothes.

"Now that I can merge the government, I am also relieved. You should keep an eye on the maids in the yard, now it's different, don't let the maids in the yard have thoughts that they shouldn't have. "Although it is difficult to escape from Kyoto, but the backyard is now cleaner, and it can be regarded as a loss, Huang thought.

"Yes, the slaves will restrain them!" Mama Fang said this on her lips, but she didn't think so in her heart. It's not that he has never been restrained, but the appearance of the second master, there are a lot of self-recommended pillows, and the drama that was raised by the prime minister's family in Kyoto was not also "bewitched" by the appearance of the second master before he stretched out the red apricot branch, besides, if the second master is a decent person, it is better, but it is a ...... Don't let those maids with ideas have big hearts.

It is also said that in the ancient feudal society, everyone wanted to turn over as serfs and sing. And the only way for the little maids to be masters is to climb the master's bed, which is why Yi Xiangxiang didn't want to buy Fluttershy before, after all, people's hearts are unpredictable, and the girls who have not been trained put into the backyard are easy to envy the days when the masters come to reach out for food and open their mouths, and if they don't pay attention, their minds will be crooked. However, it is easy to climb the bed, but it is not easy to stand firm, but even so, there are still many maids who are struggling to be a second wife.

The originally quiet Yi Mansion, after welcoming the Yi Erye family, the days gradually became "colorful".
