It's just that when it was almost dark, Du Huo hadn't returned to the house yet, Du Lan was in a hurry, and he couldn't sit still for a moment, and wanted to discuss with Pei's again, but he heard Bai Zhi say that Pei's mother took Gan's mother to the warehouse to clear the cage and prepare for Pei's second lady to marry, so she had to go back to her own moon pavilion from the main room.

In the evening of early August, the sun set late, it was time to hold the lamp, it was not dark in all directions, the flowers that had just bloomed climbed the high flower stand and leaked a little sunset, but unfortunately there were few people to prune, the branches and leaves were a little messy, and the flowers were not much.

Du Lan didn't have the heart to look more, he walked forward with a long face, and just wanted to turn his head and tell the maid to go to Qiu Shiyuan to see if Du Huo had returned, but he heard someone talking under the flower trellis not far away.

“…… Before, your in-laws set up birthday wine, what birthday gift did you send in the past? A mother-in-law leaned against the flower shed, and with an old wine jug in her hand, she poured one and handed it to the other woman sitting opposite.

The other one took it and accidentally spilled some on his hand, and took a big sip before he said with a smile: "What can I give, but a few horses of clothing and a hanging of meat, and there is no more." ”

The one who asked with a straight smile: "Why didn't you send a longevity peach or anything, only gave a hanging of meat, you are not afraid that your in-laws will be angry." I remember that when your second husband married his daughter-in-law, the bride price was given twelve lifts, who still has such dignity in the house. ”

The mother-in-law who ate wine shook her head and sighed: "That's already hollowing out the family, what's the way, isn't marrying a daughter-in-law just to talk about face, how can you not teach people to laugh." Now that she is married, she has to say something else, is it possible to make up for my money for her mother's family? ”

"That's right, your daughter-in-law is also very well-behaved, you were on an errand in the yard that day, I saw that she brought food, she did whatever you commanded, and she was not picky at all."

"She still dares to be picky, and she has been married to the door for more than a year, and she hasn't even laid an egg, if she hadn't thought about marrying another one, it would have been a toss, I would have asked Erlang to drive her back." The mother-in-law who ate the wine stuffed a piece of pickles into her mouth and snorted disdainfully, "Two days ago, she had a few words with Erlang, and went back to her parents' house in a hurry, but she was not sent back obediently." ”

"Oh, my mother's family sent it back?" The mother-in-law who asked came to be interested, "You didn't ask your Erlang to pick her up?" ”

"She went back by herself, why did Erlang pick her up?" The mother-in-law who spoke snorted twice, a little proud, "If you go to pick her up, wouldn't it give her a long face, her mother's brother sent her back, and now she is even more honest, knowing that her mother's family will not support her, she doesn't dare to have a little temper anymore, and now it's not honestly washing and cooking for Erlang." ”

"That's not bad, but it's a pity that there is no birth, so you are not in a hurry?"

"What's the hurry, she's completely honest now, I'll rest assured that I'll find another small one for Erlang, and I don't have to pick anything, it's good to be obedient and obedient, there is no such thing in the mouth market, just buy one and put it in Erlang's room."

Duran's body was weak when he heard this, and there was a gold star in front of him, and he helped the maid for a while before he stood still, gritting his teeth: "Go and see who dares to hide and chew maggots here, and dare to talk nonsense if you don't want to be on an errand, call me out!" ”

The maid was so frightened that she agreed, first helped her back to the room, and then waited back but no one was gone, thinking that the two mothers-in-law had run away in fright, so naturally they couldn't find anyone.

In the evening, when Du Huo got the letter and returned to Chunhua Garden, Du Lan insisted that he would not let his mother's family send it back, and if the Jiang family asked someone to pick it up, she would be willing to go back.

Pei's family just returned it, and just persuaded her a few words, and she also felt that if the Jiang family didn't come to pick it up, the godmother's family would send it back with a bad face, but Du Huo was angry enough.

"Sister, you still have to fight with the Jiang family now and refuse to go back, if Jiang Dalang comes back and really listens to Mrs. Jiang's meaning and plans to reconcile with you, what will you do?" Du Huo's brows furrowed into a Sichuan character, and he didn't understand why his aunt and sister didn't understand this truth.

Pei Shi pouted: "Why do you want to reconcile, the Jiang family will not be so confused!" ”

Du Huo knew his mother's temperament, and only stared at Du Lan: "Sister, you have been married to the Jiang family for a few years, and now you are still empty under your knees, Mrs. Jiang still wanted to give Jiang Dalang a concubine two years ago, but you refused to stop it, and you can divorce your wife if you have nothing to do." ”

"For the sake of our family, Jiang Jianian will definitely not want to make too much of a stalemate, at most he wants to reconcile, but sister, do you really want to reconcile?"

Duran's face was frighteningly white, and his voice was lowered: "But Jiang Dalang said that he is not in a hurry......

Du Huo couldn't open his sister's brain to see what flavor of bean curd was inside: "There have been no heirs for so long, who wouldn't be in a hurry, Jiang Dalang is just comforting you!" ”

"What's more, Mrs. Jiang doesn't like you very much, you also know a lot of things in the house these days, every time you come back, Mrs. Jiang doesn't say anything, but she has a problem in her heart, after all, you are the wife of the Jiang family! Where is it okay to ignore the affairs of the Jiang family, and run to her mother's house every day. ”

Pei Shi hurriedly stopped his son when he heard this: "What's this, your sister is the daughter of the Du family after all, and she should go back to her parents' house to help her." ”

Duran burst into tears: "San Lang, you actually look at me like this, if I don't care about Grandpa and you, why do I have to come back with the face of the A family, after all, you are still an outsider......"

Du Huo couldn't go on, he knew that no matter what he said, he couldn't make these two women sober up, so he could only get up and drop a sentence: "If Sister Ah is determined to reconcile and leave, Ah Niang is willing to let her return, you will make trouble with the Jiang family." ”

Xiao Rongyue hurried back to the house in front of the Luofang Gate, and while asking Camellia to clean her hands, she said to Sanqi: "Let them settle down on the Zhuangzi first, teach the head of the Zhuangzi to watch carefully, pick a few clever ones to come out, and take them to the shop for me to take a look at in a few days." ”

Sanqi agreed with a smile: "These forty or fifty people, I'm afraid it will take half a day to settle down, but will they be taken to Chang'an by then?" ”

Xiao Rongyue thought about it and smiled: "Don't worry, let's take a look." ”

She picked dozens of people in the mouth market and bought them, including both strong and neat people, and she planned to pick out their own useful ones.

Sanqi agreed, opened the curtain and went out, and the camellia came up with a green drink, and silently retreated to the side to wait.

Xiao Rongyue saw her head down, so she asked about the things in the garden: "What is the matter today?" Did the second lady send someone over? ”

Camellia said in a low voice: "I didn't send anyone to come, but Zhu Ling came back and said that the eldest lady had sent the person who went to Jiang's house back, saying that the Jiang family had not accepted the post." ”

Her voice was a little hoarse, different from the previous calm, she kept her head down and never raised it, looking a little different, Xiao Rongyue frowned, and was about to ask her.

But I heard the joyful voice of Zhan's mother outside: "The slave has something to ask to see the lady." ”
