Chapter 310: The Great Gift
On the Kong side, after two days of perseverance, he intended to go back to Jinling, but Mrs. Kong saw it in her eyes, but she was also angry in her heart.
Is there a daughter in a hurry to go back to her parents' house?
That's what she raised.
How can the affairs of the house be hidden from Xiao Shu's, Xiao Shu's knows why the sister-in-law is in a hurry to go back, and knows that there are not a few days when people stay in the house, so they hurriedly packed up all the things prepared for Yuan Niang, although Xie Wenhui's share is not missing, the gap can be seen from the quantity and quality.
On the third day after her birthday, Kong stayed after dinner, and Mrs. Kong knew that she was going back to Jinling.
"Mother, my husband has only taken a few days off, and I want to take the children here for a few days, and there is no one to take care of them in the house." Kong smiled and leaned towards his mother.
Mrs. Kong lowered her eyes, "Sister Hui and Yuan Niang's ceremony is also coming soon, so I won't keep you any longer, so I won't be on the road when the time comes." Your sister-in-law has also prepared gifts for the two children, and they have been loaded on the carriage, so you can just take them back when you leave. ”
Kong's eyes moved, "I have to trouble my sister-in-law so much every year, and I can't help it, it's my daughter who bothered my mother." ”
"You know I'm still worried about you, so I'll treat Yuan Niang well, that's also your daughter." Mrs. Kong gave her a special order.
Kong Shi smiled, "You also said that it was my daughter, how can I not be in pain." ”
But seeing that her mother didn't mention the gift she gave to Sister Hui alone, Kong's heart slowly sank, knowing that her mother was annoyed with her, and now she was implicated in Sister Hui.
What about Xiao Shu's side preparing gifts? It's not that there are more Yuan Niang, and there are fewer Sister Hui.
Seeing that the hour was not early, and his mother was faint, Kong Shi retired.
Back in the house, Kong had to be aggrieved again, Liu's mother persuaded on the side, Kong bit his lip, "Mom, I'll leave it to you over there." ”
Mother Liu's eyes moved, "Madame, don't worry, the slave maid has it in mind." ”
The two had a tacit understanding.
The next day, the Xie family resigned, and the people in the Confucian Mansion did not go out, Kong Daru took his son, four grandsons and great-grandchildren, and a full family had lunch, which sent the Xie family out of the house.
Xiao Shushi cried last night, although he didn't let people see it, his red and swollen eyes couldn't deceive people, and he was reluctant to let go when he sent people to the carriage.
"Did you hear a letter to my aunt about something?" Xiao Shu's also glanced at Kong's side meaningfully, "I have always liked this child, my aunt and grandmother have a good life, and there are two obedient daughters." ”
Kong's smile was a little stiff, "They can be liked by their sister-in-law, and it is also their blessing." ”
Xiao Shushi smiled, the time was urgent, and he couldn't delay it any longer, so he could only let people get into the carriage, until he saw the people go away and couldn't see the carriage, Xiao Shushi was still standing there.
Kong Cheng stepped forward to help, "Mother, go back, Yuan Niang and they are afraid that they have already left the county at this time." ”
Xiao Shushi took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "This farewell, I don't know when we will meet again." ”
Kong Cheng helped people to walk inside, "When Yuan Niang becomes a mother, my son writes to ask her husband to take her over to stay, and there is always a chance to meet." ”
Xiao Shu smiled, "I can remember." ”
Kong Cheng smiled and said a few more coaxes, Xiao Shu's mood improved, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Mama Huang next to the old lady coming to look for her, and Xiao Shushi asked his son to go back first, and then went to his mother-in-law's yard.
Mrs. Kong sat on the couch, saw people coming in, beckoned people to sit opposite, Xiao Shu called her aunt, and then sat down.
When there are no outsiders, the title of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law changes.
"There is a Zhuangzi in my dowry, there is a hot spring in it, this time I let people stuff it to Yuan Niang, she is going to become a big girl, and after marrying the grandson of Ma Shoufu's family, she will marry in two years."
Xiao Shu's heart felt better, "I'm here to thank my aunt on behalf of Yuanniang." ”
"That's my granddaughter, too, and I should give them something." Mrs. Kong sighed, "Jirou is a little confused, but her heart is not bad, and Yuan Niang is a powerful person, so you can't suffer a loss, so you put your heart in your stomach." ”
The daughter is stupid and brainless, she doesn't like Yuan Niang, but she won't be too harsh.
This can be guaranteed by Mrs. Kong.
"I believe this, my sister-in-law just can't think about it sometimes, and I also think that Yuan Niang's child is pitiful." It would have been nice if it hadn't been for the past.
"Okay, yes, I know you're the one who understands." Mrs. Kong was indeed relieved.
On the Xie family's side, Kong's mood was not good along the way, mainly because his mother prepared a gift for the two children, and she also heard about it from Sister Hui when she was resting at the post station tonight.
Sister Hui got a shop, selling rouge gouache, although Yuan Niang didn't tell her, Kong heard from Sister Hui that it was a Zhuangzi.
There is still a Zhuangzi with hot springs.
In a place like Jinling, where every inch of land is valuable, a Zhuangzi is already extremely valuable, not to mention that there are still hot springs.
Even when Kong got married, he didn't get this.
"Your grandmother has been partial to you all these years, this time she celebrated her birthday, and the gift given by Yuan Niang gave her face, so she will give it more valuable, you don't want to go to your heart, I... I also have a Zhuangzi, although there is no hot spring, but it is not bad, and I will marry you as a dowry. "Kong now understands what it means to be poor and short of breath, and he wants to persuade his daughter, but he can't come up with anything.
Xie Wenhui knew that he could only stand up for the eccentricity, and he had to pretend to be sensible on his face, "My daughter knows, my mother doesn't have to worry, Yuan Niang is also my sister, how can I be jealous." ”
Kong smiled and stroked her head, feeling that it was still the eldest daughter's intimacy.
When it was time to rest at night, Kong told her husband about it aggrievedly, "Mother doesn't know how to do things, and the two sisters send things, and if they don't give the same thing, the amount is different." What does Sister Jean think of her? ”
"Sister Hui is upset?" Xie Jiangyuan turned his back to his wife.
"Sister Hui is sensible, how can she care about this with Yuan Niang." Kong's face was proud.
Xie Jiangyuan, "What Madame said is not right, the thing was given by their grandmother, if Sister Hui is really worried about her mother-in-law, how can it be involved in Yuan Niang." ”
Kong's is choked, she can't always say that her mother is not good in front of her husband?
Xie Jiangyuan came out with a snoring sound not long after, and Kong Shi was even more angry, but there was no way.
The journey back was very urgent, and it took four days to arrive at Jinling, because it was too hurried, so even if it was a carriage, it made people feel like they were scattered.
Xie Yuanniang came to the menstrual period again, and her body was even more uncomfortable, and she stayed at home after returning to the house, until the day before the ceremony, the whole talent was in good spirits.
