According to etiquette, the people in the second room and the third room are going to go to the Zhenguo Mansion on the second day of the Lunar New Year to have a reunion dinner, even if Qi Mo is not there, but the rules of the Zhenguo Mansion for many years still cannot be abolished, and the Wen family is still alive.

Qi Mo has not been able to come back for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner every year since he joined the army, it is all Wen in Zhangluo, and now that Wen is locked up in her own courtyard, Qi Ruo naturally wants to take over.

On the morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year, Qi Ruo reluctantly got up, and when Xia He and Qiu Ju changed her clothes, she couldn't help but sigh, and when she sat in front of the dresser, she didn't care to look at herself in the bronze mirror, and she sighed for a while.

"Madame, this is soaked in the vat of sorrow."

Qiu Ju has gained a lot of weight these days, the whole person is fleshy, and the wit on her face is a little less, but she looks simple, and her description of Qi Ruo is more like a simple.

No, when Qi Ruo heard this, all the sadness in his heart dissipated, and he couldn't help covering his mouth and laughing.

Xia He also snickered while combing Qi Ruo's hair.

Qi Ruo quipped: "Then Qiu Ju, why don't you learn from Sima Guang and move a stone to smash this jar for me and rescue me?" ”

Qiu Ju blushed: "I'...... Madame, I'm not...... Isn't this someone who wants to learn to read? ”

Qi Ruo was very careful, and he immediately heard the cattiness, and deliberately lengthened his tone and asked, "Reader?" Why do you suddenly want to learn to read? ”

Qiu Ju was weak-hearted, her whole face was flushed, and she hung her head and didn't say a word.

People have also joked, Qi Ruo still has to say it.

"If you have someone you like, tell me, I'll see if it's suitable, and if it's suitable, I'll match you. You have been following Qi Mo for a long time, and the Zhenguo Mansion will never treat you badly, if you miss the good fate because of a lot of scruples, it will not be good. ”

Qiu Ju was happy in her heart, but Xia He felt extremely bitter, she wanted to ask her wife, what if she couldn't climb high? But Qi Ruo's words undoubtedly touched them very much, and both of them bowed to Qi Ruo and thanked them.

What should be faced is to go out and face it.

Qi Ruo still had to happily wait for people to come in the main hall, and when people came, they had to follow happily one by one, so as not to be taken by others, but Rao was so dedicated that he still couldn't escape the second and third rooms to find her unhappy.

"This ...... What about the sister-in-law? Today is a reunion, and Grandpa Guo is not there, so there is no way, but the eldest sister-in-law can't be absent. No one here can be here today, and the first head of the town's mansion can't help but come. ”

The second aunt took the lead.

This is the reason why these three aunts are smarter, and they never come out first, but the second aunt is afraid that others will not hate her, so she hurriedly said the ugly words first.

Didn't she mean that she didn't recognize Qi Ruo's identity as the housewife?

But she Qi Ruo is not a vegetarian either, and the corners of her mouth are pushed back with a smile.

"Reunion is to be reunited, but my aunt is sick and can't do anything, so I have to come to entertain all my cousins and aunts, but if my cousins and aunts have any dissatisfaction......"

She said slowly, and then she paused deliberately before continuing the conversation.

"I can't help it, I've just been housekeeper, I don't understand a lot of things, and I hope you will bear with me. This reunion is not in the form, maybe my parents-in-law are standing in this room watching us. ”

She didn't care about their weird looks, and covered her mouth and smiled.

"I heard my husband say that my father-in-law and mother-in-law are very sensible, and they are the most protective of their shortcomings, and they will surely protect me in heaven every day, no one will want to take my life, and no one can bully me."

The words of the Chinese New Year are very terrifying, and they don't dare to refute it.

After the people in the two rooms went to see Prince Ren and Princess Ren, the Liu family sent someone to send a message to Qi Ruo, and she knew that they were here to find fault today.

No, Aunt Santang finally led the conversation over there.

"Yes, my brother and sister-in-law are watching from the sky, it's just ...... If they see that their son has no children until now, they are afraid that they will be sad......"

"Grandpa Guo married later than others, and now you have been married for a long time, and you have injured your body again...... How's that good? Can't always ...... The Zhenguo Mansion has always had a thin heir, and if you want to be a good wife, you should think about it. ”

Qi Ruo's face remained unchanged, and he asked calmly, "What is the method of Aunt Santang?" ”

The second aunt wanted to grab the credit, and she was busy intercepting the words of the third aunt and shaking out their intentions.

"Concubine! Since ancient times, what man has not had three wives and four concubines? What's more, we are still a noble family, and we should reproduce children as soon as possible, so that the family will grow stronger and stronger. ”

The second aunt really relied on Qi Mo's absence, and there were many people who came, so they had no fear at all, and they spoke even more openly.

"You can't extend the heirs of our elders for my town, not to mention our elders, we are also dissatisfied with your background, but Grandpa Guo likes it, and we don't stop it, but you can't delay Grandpa Guo and prevent him from marrying a concubine and having children, right?"

Qiu Ju is also bold in the day, and he is dedicated to protecting Qi Ruo, when he heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes at Aunt Ertang, and retorted in a low voice: "Then you have to stop it!" ”

Aunt Ertang was furious, slapped the table and said, "You, what are you muttering there?" ”

Qi Ruo is protection is very short, and his smile is even a little more restrained.

"Second aunt, you also know that this family belongs to the grandfather of the country, and I can't be his master, since you are elders and feel that you can be his master, then I will tell him when he comes back."

The second cousin stretched out his index finger and pointed at the table: "How do you talk to the elders?" ”

Uncle Santang also reprimanded: "It's really a countryman, I don't know anything!" ”

Aunt Santang started a round: "Qi Ruo, if you are troublesome, we will find this person, to ensure that the family background is innocent, the official eunuch family, and the scholarly family, the family is clear and clear, and the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are proficient in everything." ”

Qi Ruo laughed again, but stubbornly did not let go.

"I'm telling the truth, I'm a woman, and Grandpa Guo is the head of the family, so naturally I listen to him. Is it difficult for the second and third uncles to be the masters at home? Can't you say it in one word? ”

The second cousin and the third cousin were choked by Qi Ruo's words, and stopped talking in a boring way, but Tete was the third cousin, and couldn't help but look at the third aunt impatiently.

Aunt Santang is not a vegetarian either, and she glared back at the moment, with a posture of 'you dare to mess with me again'.

"Qi Ruo, that's not what he said, as a wife, you should share your husband's worries, not everything has to be calculated by him, he has enough things to worry about, is it possible that his grandfather came back from a night of hard work outside, and you still have to wait for him to tell you to bring the footwashing water to wash his feet?"

Qiu Ju couldn't help but roll her eyes in her heart again, naturally she had to wait for Grandpa Guo to come back, otherwise who would wash her feet and rub her feet?

"Aunt Santang has learned a lesson. It's just that I ask myself if I can be regarded as a wife who forgives her husband, although there are omissions, but she is also conscientious and has never slackened for a day. ”

Qi Ruo went back without humility or arrogance.

"You are elders, I don't dare to dismiss your kindness, but I don't dare to be the master of my husband."

The second aunt took the case: "I think you are a jealous woman!" I can't see that your husband has someone else, and I want to dominate him, and when the time comes, let us be the last in the town! And the old lady, is it also controlled by you? We're going to see the old lady today, and see if we can cure you!" ”

As soon as Aunt Ertang's words fell, everyone in the second and third rooms stood up.

Qi Ruo was still sitting on the chair, but there was no smile on his face: "I thought that everyone would celebrate the New Year happily, but you want to find me unhappy!" I'll leave the words here today, don't give me any moths, this Zhenguo Mansion is not yours, it's Qi Mo's! It's my home and Qi Mo's! If he hadn't told me in person that he wanted to take a concubine, it would be useless for anyone to tell me! ”

"Yes, children are important, but do you think that more children the better? Why do you think you were given out in the first place? Besides, people like you don't deserve to be called people of the Zhenguo Mansion! ”

Qi Ruo got up, stretched out his right hand and pointed to the plaque hanging on the main hall, which read: 'Defend the family and defend the country'!

"See what's written on that? The people of the Zhenguo Mansion are iron-clad, and the strength of the family is not because of the number of children born, but because of that body of flesh and blood! Why do you think the Zhenguo Mansion is admired by people, it is because they are really swords, come and go in the wind and rain, wholeheartedly for the country and the people, and desperately get it! ”

"What if there are more children? If everyone is pustules, and they only know that they are losers, they are moths, but they are just trying to erode the beams and pillars of the Zhenguo Mansion, and they have no effect on the Zhenguo Mansion. ”

Qi Ruo's words can't help but make people think about it, but she does mean something.

The people in the second and third rooms were so popular that they seemed to want to pounce on her and hit her, but they were forced by Qi Ruo to attack first.

"Come on, please go back to all your uncles and aunts, and send them home."

The people in the second and third rooms saw the battle, and they didn't care what kind of decency it was, it was really a shrew who scolded the streets, and Tete was the second aunt, and she couldn't wait to hear it from all the people in Yuanjing, and she was not afraid of losing face.

"Qi Ruo, you poisonous woman! I'll see how long you can run amok! ”

"We're your elders, you ......"

Scolding and shouting, they finally left, Qi Ruo sat back in the chair again, and gently rested his head on the hand holding the table.

Xia He and Qiu Ju glanced at each other, but they didn't dare to disturb her.

After a while, Qi Ruocai said: "When I went out to spread the news, I said that I was so angry with the people in the second and third rooms that I had fainted, and it was best to find another doctor to go around." ”

Xia He and Qiu Ju were a little hesitant.

It was Qiu Ju who opened her mouth: "Madam, this is the New Year, saying this, it is plain and unlucky." ”

"It's okay, we can't be too passive, otherwise we may be rumored to be like it again. Anyway, the reputation of the two of them outside the country is not very good, so when it spreads, the people will believe that we are the ones who will believe it. ”

Qi Ruo stood up with the table.

"I'm a little tired, let's go rest first, let's do this quickly."

It's just that Qi Ruo didn't stop in the end, and someone came to the palace.
