Chapter 51: How Can You Get Married?
When He came, it was already evening, Xiao Rongyue was playing a cool fan on the bamboo couch and watched Sanqi and the others pour the boiled black plum juice on the thinly sliced Mourning pears, and the crystal clear pear slices suddenly had agate-like thick plum juice, and the fragrance came to the nose.
"Add a few pieces of ice, you have to eat it while it's cold, and it will lose its flavor after a while." Looking at the plates of plum juice and pear slices, Xiao Rongyue waved her hand, "You guys also taste it, go to the heat." ”
Guangdan swallowed his saliva and came forward, but Camellia pulled her, came over and brought it to them in person, pursed her lips and smiled: "How did the lady come up with the idea of eating, and raising these mouths, today Sister-in-law Ke also said that she had never seen such a practice before." ”
Xiao Rongyue picked up a small bowl, scooped up a small piece of pear with a silver spoon and brought it to her mouth, and the rich sweet and sour aroma of plum juice teased her taste buds and whetted her appetite.
She smiled: "I saw the method in the idle book, so I tried it." ”
This is a snack in Hebei Province, there is a cook from Weizhou in the Shangshi Bureau who makes the best, His Majesty likes it the most, it is always available in the Zichen Palace, she has seen a lot and followed the learning, and let people do it in the Ruyang Hou Mansion, Meng Yu praised it very much, saying that marrying her is his own blessing, and it is also the blessing of the Ruyang Hou Mansion......
She felt a pain in her heart, and finally put down the bowl of plum juice and pear slices, the sour and sweet in it were all concerning, and she didn't know if he was good now, and whether he was still thinking about himself.
"The second lady is here." The little maid reported outside the curtain.
Xiao Rongyue put away all her thoughts, instructed the camellia to put away the things, and asked Guangdan to help him sit up, leaning on the table with his eyes half-closed, looking so sick that he had no strength.
"San Lang's daughter-in-law, I saw that you were fine some time ago, why did you become like this!" As soon as He Shi entered the door, he exclaimed, walked over quickly, and pressed Xiao Rongyue, who was about to get up, "Don't toss, I really can't rest assured that I will come down to see you." ”
"I heard that it was sick, I thought it was just a small problem, why it hasn't gotten better for so long, I'm really anxious." He sat down beside her kindly, took her hand, and sighed.
Xiao Rongyue had a plain face, and she didn't apply any fat powder, and she looked more and more thin and weak: "The second aunt is here, I haven't visited the second aunt for a long time, but I teach you to worry, how is the second uncle?" ”
He's face darkened: "I can get off the bed, but the injury on my head is not yet healed, and I have a headache when I see the light, and Lang Zhong said that he will take care of it for a while, and the injury is too serious." ”
She turned her red eyes towards Xiao Rongyue: "I don't know who it is, it's so fierce, pity our family, and now it's bullied......
Xiao Rongyue saw her tears falling, and hurriedly asked Sanqi to hand over a handkerchief: "Auntie, wipe your tears, who would have thought that there would be such a thing, it is really ......"
He wiped his tears, but his face turned cold: "Today I sent someone to ask Lang Zhong to see your second uncle, but I was stopped, saying that now the house has no money for medical treatment, and the decoction is going to be broken, what is the reason, is it possible that the good Du family has failed?" Do you want to stop watching people die of illness?! ”
Xiao Rongyue looked surprised: "How come?" I don't have the money to see a doctor anymore! ”
He sneered: "I heard that she took all the money in the public account and the money in the shop, saying that she was going to buy some Hu merchant's goods, and she was deceived into having nothing left, and now the house is about to run out of food." ”
Xiao Rongyue seemed to be taken aback: "How come?" Two days ago, Ah Jia came to me, talked to me for a long time, and borrowed more than 10,000 yuan from my dowry, saying that it was urgent. ”
He clapped his hands: "She even dared to move your dowry, it seems that she has already made up her mind, but I don't know what she did with this amount of money, what she said was deceived by Hu Shang, I don't believe it, how could she give money to Hu Shang for no reason." ”
The more she talked, the more angry she became: "The good house was made into a miasma by her, and now the monthly money in the house is gone, and she doesn't even have the money for medical treatment, is it to force these people to death!" ”
Xiao Rongyue sighed again and again: "Sister Ah has also come back in the past two days, I don't know what to discuss with Ah Jia." ”
What to discuss, it must be to discuss how to embezzle the money, and the long house is to share the spoils! He Shi was so angry that she gritted her teeth, she didn't believe that someone as shrewd as Pei's would easily teach people to cheat, let alone such a large sum of money.
She listened to Xiao Rongyue sigh and said, "But what to do after that, it won't be long before mid-autumn, and I'm afraid that there won't even be a decent moon salute in the house." ”
When He heard this, his eyebrows raised slightly, and he immediately smiled: "You are still sick, don't worry about these things first, take care of your illness." ”
She said a few more words to Xiao Rongyue before hurriedly returning to the Dawn Garden.
When she left, Zhu Ling opened the curtain and came in: "Third Mrs. Jiang has already arrived in the mansion." ”
Xiao Rongyue pursed her lips: "Speaking of which, the eldest lady is sick, and Pei Erniang has never seen it in the past." ”
Zhu Ling said softly: "These days, Pei Erniang has been in the room every day, and listening to Yinjin, every day people have asked people to inquire whether there is any letter from Chang'an." ”
Xiao Rongyue was quite curious, what kind of letter was Pei Erniang waiting for, could it be that the Pei family in Chang'an would still help her?
She smiled: "She'll go, after all, it's her aunt and nephew." ”
In the Juping Courtyard, Pei Erniang listened to Yinjin's words, and her face became more and more ugly: "Did my aunt invite Mrs. Jiang San to come to the house?" ”
Yinjin nodded: "That's what the mothers-in-law at the door said, I sent a post yesterday and invited Mrs. Xiao." ”
At the Jiang family's birthday banquet, the matter of Mrs. Jiang and Pei's relatives has been spread to Juping Courtyard, Pei Erniang didn't care about it, she only looked forward to Chang'an's reply, after all, she and Du Huo's affairs all knew that although she didn't have the face to go out, she was not worried that Pei's family would pick another family affair for her, she would definitely enter Du's house.
But now that the Pei family actually took the initiative to invite Mrs. Jiang San to come to the door, as well as the Xiaoliu family, it is clear that they are still worried about that family business, is it possible to agree?
She had a layer of cold sweat on her body for a while, not to mention what the family was talking about, even if it was good, she had already given her body to her third cousin, how could she marry her?
"Quick, hurry up and wait for the change of clothes and freshen up, I want to go to Chunhua Garden." She clutched her chest, only to feel that her heartbeat was like a drum, and she couldn't delay for a moment, and she wanted to go to Chunhua Garden to inquire about it.
