On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the Lu family had to go back first.

Early in the morning, Mrs. Ye sent Master Lu and the others out of the house, and then took a longevity lock and handed it to Qiao's, and said with a smile: "Ling'er didn't come, but my aunt still has what she wants to give." ”

Qiao Shi carefully put it away, thanked him, and turned to say goodbye to the other women. Master Lu was pulled aside by Old Madam Ye and listened to her: "Brother, have you remembered everything I told you these days?" You can't forget all these things as soon as you go back to the house, you are really the head of the Lu family. Master Lu naturally promised that he hadn't forgotten, and turned around and called Lu Qing, who was still talking to Ye Lusheng and others, and got into the carriage.

Everyone went back to the house again, they were too tired for the first two days, and Mrs. Ye only found a few female relatives to come over to eat tea with them.

As for those who want to watch the play and touch the cards, they all go to the backyard to play.

Old Madam Ye took a sip of tea and asked the others one by one if they were okay for the past two days. Green Branch held the tea cup and said with a smile: "Naturally it's good, the two days of tired Shuangniang looking at the ingots for me really made me a lot easier." ”

Tong Shuang also smiled: "Where is the trouble? It's just Jue'er playing with ingots, and I see that the two brothers are very close; Again, Yuanbao is also sensible, saying that Zhiniang has to take care of Yuanyuan every day, and she is already very busy. ”

Lu Zhi wanted to say something, but he still couldn't find the words to refute it, so he only laughed twice: "Also, Yuan Bao is very sensible." ”

Old Madam Ye nodded and said that it was very good, and she would wait for half of the meal.

Cao Liangjin asked Xiaolian to bring a brocade box, and when the brocade box was opened, it was dozens of hairpins with exquisite and elegant workmanship. She intended to dedicate it to everyone, so she smiled and said: "These are brought by my mother this time, I saw that I liked it, so I shared it." Let's take a look at it and pick a few if you like. ”

Mrs. Cao took one and said with a smile: "It's not a precious thing, it's just good-looking." ”

Mrs. Ye glanced at the brocade box, which was a variety of flower-style accessories twisted into satin, and she smiled: "I see that this is a hundred flowers competing for beauty, and my mother has the heart to send flowers to welcome the spring in advance." ”

"The old lady is really good at laughing," Tong Shuang picked a simple style by herself, Cao Liangjin saw it, got up and chose a peony for Tong Shuang to wear, and said with a smile: "Shuangniang's makeup has always been elegant, and she still has to be a little happy for the New Year." ”

Tong Shuang looked at Cao Liangjin's smile, and remembered in a trance that Cao Liangse also wore fake flowers for her to cover her scars, but she was stunned, but she shed a few tears. Everyone asked what was wrong, Tong Shuang reluctantly smiled and pointed to the stove on the side, and said, "Shuang'er is afraid of the cold, and she sits by the stove greedily, who knows that it is smoked." ”

Everyone laughed, and Mrs. Ye handed a soup woman to Tong Shuang, and patted the vacant seat next to her: "Since it's smoked, come here to sit." ”

Tong Shuang hurriedly got up and sat down, and asked with a smile: "What style does the old lady want?" Old Madam Ye waved her hand and smiled: "At my age, how can I learn from you to wear red and green?" Choose what you love, and leave me alone. ”

Mrs. Cao picked a fine flower of magnolia and sent it to Mrs. Ye: "This is good." When Mrs. Ye took a look, she saw that this white magnolia was made of silver silk and green leaves with emerald flannel, which also complemented each other.

Now waiting for lunch, Mrs. Ye ordered the kitchen to prepare two places, one for the female family and the other for Ye Lusheng in the south house, the table is full of women, Mrs. Ye smiled: "They like to drink some wine, we don't bother to worry about it, it's better to eat separately, it's convenient." ”

After eating for a while, Lu Zhi said: "It's too regular to eat like this, it's a waste of such good wine, Lu Zhi is also the first time to come to Yefu this year, why don't you let Lu Zhi take charge of the pot, let's also make a wine order?" ”

Old Madam Ye immediately smiled and said, "Okay, it's good to be lively." ”

Tong Shuang saw that Mrs. Ye was happy, so she grabbed the quota first, and said with a smile: "Then let me come first, but I'll say okay first, I can't eat much wine, and if I lose a lot later, the old lady will block for me." ”

Green Branch took three cups, filled them one by one, and said, "Then let's start with three." "Said for a while: the only one, the brothers are good, three stars, four seasons of wealth, five heads, six six shun, seven qiao, eight horses, nine longevity, full ten, treasure a pair.

Tong Shuang lost three handfuls in a row, and after three glasses of wine, he became a little drowsy. Green Branch smiled: "Is Frost Niang trying to drink and deliberately lose?" ”

Everyone laughed "haha", Tong Shuang smiled a little embarrassedly, and stood up to go outside to breathe. Cao Liangjin saw that her steps were vain, so he also got up and went over to help.

The two of them went out of the house and found a pavilion to sit down, Tong Shuang was blown by the cold wind, which made them feel a lot more comfortable. Cao Liangjin frowned and said, "When did you offend this Zhi Niang?" It always feels like she's targeting you at every turn. ”

Tong Shuang shook his head with a wry smile, sat down for a while, and said, "The old lady is still eating, it's not good for the fourth young grandmother to accompany me out for so long and not go back, let's go back first." ”

Cao Liangjin said again: "Don't worry, I don't want to favor you, but I don't like that Zhiniang's temperament, I'll go back later, and I'll find a chance to help you." ”

Tong Shuang thanked him, and when the two went in, he saw Lu Zhi drinking a glass of wine, and when he saw the two, he smiled and said, "It just so happened that after a round, the fourth young grandmother wants to ......."

"I won't." Cao Liangjin refused, and went back to Mrs. Cao to sit down, and saw that Tong Shuang was forced to fight with the green branch, and he had to drink three cups after losing.

Just as Tong Shuang raised the cup, Cao Liangjin smiled at Mrs. Cao and said, "My daughter can't understand this kind of fisting, but my daughter remembers that our family used other methods to persuade wine before." ”

Mrs. Cao smiled and asked, "Liangjin is talking about the flower order?" ”

"Flower Order?" Old Madam Ye was very interested when she heard this.

Mrs. Cao explained: "Just follow the reading, I have a flower, pour me purple wine, I only wish the flower is like my heart, how old is the long-term stay, full of gold cups, I smell the flowers, I don't want the flower branches next to me, pay to others." If you make a mistake or slow down, you will be punished for drinking. ”

Mrs. Ye followed and read the words again, and then smiled and asked everyone to come together, Cao Liangjin had the heart to embarrass the green branch, and said that the green branch was wrong for a while, and said that the green branch was wrong for a while, and forced the green branch to drink several cups.

Lu Zhi put down the cup, got off the table and said with a smile: "Don't come, don't come, if you go on like this, the fourth young grandmother will get me drunk." ”

In this way, the crowd laughed again and the meeting dispersed.

Green Zhi returned to the house and vomited violently, Wu'er brought hot water and gave her a smooth back, Green Zhi sat down, and said fiercely: "I don't know how many twists and turns this person's mind has, but I heard that the Cao family is dissatisfied with the Tong family before he dares to provoke, who knows that this Cao family suddenly changed the hexagram?" ”

Wu'er worriedly persuaded: "Zhiniang, why are you suffering? This is always the Ye family, and in the final analysis, people are a family. ”

Green Branch pouted: "How I don't know, it's just that you also heard what the master said about me, saying that I didn't care about the Li family's son-in-law, so I didn't have to lose the face of the Li family; This Tong family also grasped the trick and behaved, and changed the way to say that I am not good for ingots, where can I swallow this breath? ”

"If you can't swallow it, you have to swallow it," Wu'er patiently persuaded: "Zhi Niang forgot, I said, before Zhi Niang gave birth to the little master, the young master of Yuanbao had to be stopped." ”

Lu Zhi nodded silently, and went to the side room to look at the sleeping Yuanyuan, and then he went to take a nap with peace of mind.

Old Madam Ye left Tong Shuang down again and said, "Do you remember what I told you?" ”

Tong Shuang thought that she had done something to offend Mrs. Ye, so she hurriedly said: "Shuang'er doesn't know, please ask the old lady to make it clear." ”

Old Madam Ye smiled and said, "I remember, I promised you before that I would straighten you out." ”

Tong Shuang was stunned for a moment, and Old Madam Ye sighed: "No matter what your purpose is, I have seen your kindness to ingots in the past few days." Now a small concubine of the Li family dares to stumble on you, which is not mine. ”

At the moment, Tong Shuang only knew how to kneel down and say that she was grateful, and Mrs. Ye was busy asking the maid to help her up, and said warmly: "Remember, you will be the third young grandmother of the Ye family in the future, but you have to pay more attention." ”

Tong Shuang agreed, until the maid sent her out of the east house, she relieved herself, the maid next to her smiled and said to her congratulations, Tong Shuang confirmed that this was not a dream, and did not let the maid send it again, she went back quickly.

Although Tong Shuang has not changed her name in the Ye family tree, with Mrs. Ye's words, it is a sure thing that Tong Shuang is now the third young grandmother of the Ye family.

Xue Qing was naturally happy for Tong Shuang, but before she could say it, the news had already spread, and even the mother-in-law in the back kitchen mentioned that Tong Shuang had to consciously call her "Third Young Grandma".

The most obvious counterpart to this is the face of the green branch that is not very happy from beginning to end when we eat together in the evening.

When this news reached Xiuwan's ears, she had just returned from outside with Mr. Tao - Mrs. Ye specially let him and his wife rest for a day today.

Mr. Tao remembered that there was an inaccessible place in Lianghe Town, like a barren mountain, where there were several families scattered around, he took Xiuwan to see, he asked: "We are going to leave Yefu one day, Xiuwan, why don't you live here in the future?" ”

Xiuwan naturally didn't care about these, she said: "You can go anywhere, it's good to have you." ”

The two returned to the town, ate at the restaurant, and watched the performance of the Dongying geisha before returning to Yefu.

As soon as they arrived, someone told them that Mrs. Ye intended to let Shuangniang be the third young grandmother!

Mr. Tao smiled faintly and went back to the house with Xiuwan. Seeing that the moonlight was just right, he took two white porcelain cups and said, "If you don't come to drink, won't you live up to the bright moon?" ”
