Text Chapter 70: Confession
The next thing is to recognize people, first of all, the second room.
Du Ziming, the second master of Du Mansion, is a thin middle-aged man, especially when he stands in front of the third master Du Zifei, it becomes more and more that his body is too thin, his face is grim, he is not angry and self-assured, he has been taking care of the industry of Du Mansion for many years, and he is very busy every day, and he rarely has time to stay in the house on weekdays, and it is also today that Du Ziwu and others returned to the house, so he specially rushed back from the suburbs of Beijing.
The second wife, Wan Shi, is the concubine of Wan Liang, the left counselor of the province, is slightly fat, although she is smiling on her face, her smile does not reach the bottom of her eyes, and she is obviously a little perfunctory.
Yi'er saluted, and Du Ziming and his wife rewarded the meeting gift.
Then there is the third room, Yi'er has already seen it, Du Ziwu and his wife want to say that they are close to the people in the Hou Mansion, it must be the third room, Du Zifei personally went out of the city to greet him, and the Zhong family also led the two daughters to greet each other outside the Hanging Flower Gate, which is naturally not the arrangement of the old lady Lin.
So for the third room, Yi'er was close to her heart, stepped forward and saluted respectfully, Du Zifei gave Yi'er sister and brother a pair of golden bells when she was outside the city, but this will make up a formal meeting gift, Yi'er took it with a smile.
In the Du family, Du Ziwu is the only son of the former Qingxiang Marquis Du Jialu's original partner Shen, and the eldest son of Du Fu, and the second and third rooms are all born to concubines, not sons-in-law, and Du Jialu's continuation Lin only gave birth to two sons, that is, the current Qingxiang Marquis, Du Ziqian of the fourth room and Du Ziping, the fifth child.
Du Ziqian was born handsome, like a handsome son, he was not very old, and he inherited the marquis of Qingxiang as a young man, and he was even more in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to experience the experience of the rear army, it was the time of high spirits and spring breeze. And the fourth lady Wei has to mention two more words, this Wei family is from the Weiqin Marquis Mansion, although it is only a concubine of Wei Daohuai, the Marquis of Weiqin, but her biological mother is Wei Daohuai's most favored Aunt Song, she has been doted on by Wei Daohuai since she was a child, and she is no different from the concubine of the Weiqin Marquis Mansion!
When it comes to the Marquis of Weiqin's mansion, we have to talk about Concubine Wei Xian, who gave birth to the eldest son of the emperor for Emperor Qiming, speaking of which, this Wei family is still the sister of Concubine Wei Xian, and her identity is naturally no better than others.
And Wufang Du Ziping, is even younger, he is the youngest son of the Lin family when he was thirty years old, and he has been doted on by the Lin family too much, Du Ziping has just turned twenty-two years old this year, born in the jade tree Linfeng, the wind god is handsome, but the face is a little too pale, the eyes are slightly godless, and the clear-eyed person can know at a glance that this is caused by the physical injury caused by long-term indulgence.
When he was young, he and a group of fox friends and dog friends were out all day long, going out to the court, making plays, playing with prostitutes, and visiting casinos. The year before last, when he was twenty years old, he became a pro, married a young lady of the Hou He family in Dongshan, his old man was born in the military, and there was a murderous aura on his body, this Du Ziping was not afraid of the sky, but he was really afraid of the hot old man, which was a lot more restrained, and now He is pregnant again, Du Ziping is accompanied in the house every day, and Lin is relieved to see it in his eyes.
He's body has been more than five months, and he is slightly starting to show his pregnancy, Yi'er greeted the four rooms and five rooms, and after getting the meeting gift, she also asked about He's delivery period and morning sickness.
When Li gave birth to Du Yu, Yi'er was by her side all day long, and she was no stranger to women giving birth, so she asked casually, but in the eyes of the old lady Lin, she bowed her head slightly, only saying that Yi'er was calm and a rare and stable person.
After seeing the elders, the next thing is the peers.
In terms of heirs, among the five houses of Du Mansion, the second house has the most abundant heirs, giving birth to three sons and two daughters, of which Wan gave birth to two sons, namely the eldest son Du Peng, the third son Du Chang, and the second son Du Shao and the eldest daughter Du Yining from Aunt Zhang, and the second daughter Du Xiangyu from Aunt Zhao.
Originally, Du Yining and Du Xiangyu were both married, Yi'er thought that she would not be able to see them, but she would have thought that she would really see her second sister Du Xiangyu. But it turned out that Du Xiangyu had been married for three years, because she had nothing to do, she was not treated by her husband's family, so in a fit of anger, she reconciled with her husband and divorced, and returned to the Hou Mansion a year ago.
I didn't know about this before, so much so that she was a little surprised, and then looked at Du Xiangyu, although she was wearing a woman's headdress, but from top to bottom, to a heroic spirit, her movements were crisp and neat, and she was generous, Yi'er thought that it was no wonder that she had such courage and dared to return home directly with her husband's family.
The two sisters of Du Qinwen and Du Qinya in the third room, Yi'er have seen them before, the young teeth of the junior men and women in the Hou Mansion are in separate order, Yi'er is ranked after Du Yining and Du Xiangyu, ranking third, while Du Qinwen and Du Qinya's sisters are ranked fifth and sixth respectively, and the fourth is Du Jinyao, the eldest daughter of the Wei family in the fourth room, she is the same year as Yi'er, but in June, with less moon, and the youngest is Wei's youngest daughter Du Yinyin, who is only eight years old this year.
The male grandchildren, in addition to the three in the second room, are generally young, the third room has no children under the knees, and the fourth room Wei also gave birth to the twelve-year-old Du Zhuo, the ten-year-old Du Ke, and the sixth in the second row is the little Du Yu in the long room.
Finally, after the meeting, Yi'er's head is a little big, and her name is basically written down, but if she wants to sit in the right seat, I'm afraid she can't for a while.
Coming out of Zirui Courtyard, in the Mingfeng Building, which specializes in entertaining guests, a banquet was set up, which was regarded as a dust wash for Du Ziwu's family, and at the banquet, even Yi'er was forced to pour a few glasses of fruit wine by a group of sisters, and when she got to the next banquet, her head was a little dizzy.
In the early years, the long house lived in the ripple courtyard of the east garden of the Hou Mansion, and the discharge gate was the artificially dug Furong Lake, the scenery was extremely beautiful, but the ripple courtyard was built according to the lake, compared with the other courtyards of the Hou Mansion, it was a little colder. This time, Du Ziwu and others returned to Beijing, and the Ripple Courtyard had already been cleaned up. And Yi'er, because she is old, she can't live in the Ripple Courtyard with the Li family, according to the meaning of the Li family, the Qiuxia Pavilion next to the Ripple Courtyard was vacated for Yi'er to live in, so that the Li family can also feel at ease.
Of course, Yi'er won't have any opinions on Li's arrangement, and the scenery and lighting of Qiuxia Pavilion are excellent, although it is not as large as the place in the Ripple Courtyard, but Yi'er already prefers this kind of delicate and small courtyard, so she really likes it.
Back to Qiuxia Pavilion, the people have already packed everything up, Yi'er sat on the soft couch in the main house, she usually has not drunk wine, today I drank a few glasses, just on the way back there was a wind blowing, people are a lot more sober, I feel a slight pain in my head, I can't help but reach out and press my temple.
Lan Qiao stepped forward with a smile and was about to rub Yi'er's head, Yi'er waved her hand and said, "You go and call all the people in the yard in, I have something to say." ”
Lan Qiao was stunned for a moment, and then Fu Shen retreated.
Soon, the servants who were waiting on errands in Qiuxia Pavilion came in order.
These people, except for the four rough grandmothers and the six rough little girls, the rest were brought by Yi'er from Beikaicheng. Yi'er's eyes slowly swept over everyone, and it could be seen that the girl next to her, even if she was as steady as Qingli, was a little stunned by the magnificence of the Hou Mansion, in fact, she didn't blame them, it was Yi'er herself, who was also a little dazzled at the beginning.
After Yi'er read it, she frowned unconsciously, and said, "What about Yingu?" ”
Qing Li replied: "Yingu went to the front yard to find Mo Guan, and wanted to find a room for her mother and brother to live in the alley or in the upside-down room, but she hasn't come back yet." ”
Yi'er sighed and said, "It's my negligence as the master, Qingli, you look at it more, that girl has a tendon, maybe she doesn't dare to show it in front of me if she suffers any losses, she will do this well, if there is any trouble, you tell me." ”
Qing Li responded.
Yi'er turned her head to look at the maids and servants below, cleared her throat, and said: "Most of you came from Beikaecheng with me, and you should know my temperament, but this is the Jingshi Marquis Mansion, not Beikaicheng, so many of the previous factions should be reined in here, and they must be put away, don't be as reckless as before, if you really commit something...... Don't blame Miss for not protecting you, frankly speaking, if there is such a time, it is not a matter of whether I am willing to protect you, but whether your young lady still has the ability to protect you, do you understand? ”
The crowd was amazed.
Yi'er nodded, and said: "Of course, if you don't make any mistakes, I will come back to seek justice for you after you encounter something, and the people around me naturally have no reason to be bullied for no reason." ”
Again, the crowd should be.
Yi'er looked at Mama Wang on the side and said: "The rest can be as follows the old practice of Beikai before, but my mother cares for it, and I have added a small kitchen in the Qiuxia Pavilion, which is a good thing, and you will lead Mama Wang in the kitchen, and you will take it all in total, and give me a list tomorrow, and I will ask my mother to do it as soon as possible." ”
Mama Wang is blessed.
Yi'er looked at the three silver-character girls left after Yingu was brought up, and now they have all been promoted to third-class big girls, and they are also responsible for some of Yi'er's close waiting errands, so they are like chicken blood, and they are very excited, Yi'er smiled, and looked at the rough girls who were originally waiting in Qiuxia Pavilion and belonged to the Hou Mansion, and said: "There are only three third-class girls now, and they are not busy adding, wait for a while, let's get in from among you!" ”
The six rough little girls were stunned, they didn't expect to have such a good thing, you must know that these little girls are going to become the big girls who are waiting for the master, the difference between the small and the big words, but there is a world of difference, not to mention anything else, just the moon silver, the rough girl is only fifty copper plates, and the third-class big girl has two copper coins, which is converted into a thousand copper plates, one or two lines of silver, a full twenty times the difference.
Generally speaking, the big girls of big families are bought directly from the hands of people, and then after training, and finally put in front of the master to listen to it, so there is very little mention from the rough girl, so Yi'er said this, the six little girls are overjoyed, although there is only one place, but it is always a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
