First Marriage (VIII) (Part II)

Xinfang's eyes on Lian'er now have changed from the original appreciation to admiration, and it is no wonder that he could not have calmed the third brother.

As soon as I heard that Yixinzhai was the third sister-in-law, several brothers of the same age came around. The Tang Sect also has a home school in the capital, but most of the children who want to go all the way to the civil service and do well in their studies will be promoted to some famous academies in the capital when they are older. Many students in the college have recently gone to Yixinzhai to shop for goods. Even if you don't have a lot of money at home, you like to go and see it. Sister Hua, the shopkeeper of Yixinzhai, is also a wonderful person, and the owner has said that the guests are treated equally, so from the buddy to the shopkeeper, the students are treated equally. Even if you don't buy it, just watch it, they are very patient to explain it, without the slightest dislike. This made Yi Xin Zhai famous among the students of the Qingliu faction. Now when I hear that the backstage boss is the third sister-in-law, I am even more envious.

Xinjie took advantage of everyone's presence and said, "Originally, your sister-in-law didn't want everyone to know about this, but since we are all a family, let's tell everyone the truth." Your sister-in-law is worried that people outside will know that it is her capital, and she will have many worries or other thoughts when she goes to the store. Especially those poor students, your sister-in-law just wants them to have a chance and place to be able to touch and see their favorite four treasures of the study and the good piano. This is also the reason why Yixinzhai famous piano can be played for free, and the inscription poems can be exchanged for paper and pencils. Your sister-in-law doesn't want to be right and wrong in Yixinzhai because of outsiders because of her or the Tang family's background. So please don't say it, brothers. If you want to find something, you can also find your sister-in-law or tell my brother. "They are all children of the Tang family, and many people understand that sometimes they are troubled by criticism when they do good deeds, and they have agreed to come down.

At the same time, he also began to admire the third brother's vision, and it is no wonder that the queen mother is serious when looking for such a sister-in-law. Many of the children of the Tang family have been taught since childhood to marry wives and virtuous people. The atmosphere of recognizing relatives has changed from the original monotony and rigidity, and it has also become active because of the topic of Yixinzhai.

"There are still a few uncles and aunts who haven't seen each other yet, everyone has to have a meal together at noon, I'm afraid that everyone will be hungry after a long time, so I will continue to talk when I have something to say for a while." Xinye, who accompanied the confession, reminded.

So the matter of acknowledging relatives began again, but the younger peers began to move around, get together to chat, and look at gifts.

When he came to the eighth cousin's family, he gave things to his uncles and aunts and a group of brothers and sisters, and before the elders could speak, Xinfeng spoke first: "This rouge paste looks pretty good." ”

Her arrogant attitude made Lian'er frown slightly, but today is to recognize her relatives, and she always wants to give her husband face, so she smiled slightly: "It's good if my sister likes it." ”

How do you know that Xinfeng raised his eyebrows arrogantly: "I am twenty-three in the Tang family, you can call me Miss twenty-three, or follow the aunts in the family to call me the third girl in the painting alley." ”

Xinjie frowned, he had been busy forgetting recently, Lan Xin still had this relative here. He usually has no dealings with Xinfeng, and he doesn't know that this cousin is a person who can't be twisted, and he hasn't reported it to Lian'er. At this time, Xinfeng's words were so ugly, he also became angry, and asked in a deep voice: "Do you think you can be my master?" The third lady of Painting Boat Lane? Although you are the uncle of General Donglan, you are not noble enough to be your subordinate, right? ”

Xinfeng was stunned, she just wanted to target the person who robbed her cousin's husband, but not her cousin, so she hurriedly defended: "Third brother, I'm teaching her." After all, she married into a big family and had to understand the rules. ”

"What rules do you know?" Xinjie asked coldly.

Aunt Batang knew that it was bad as soon as she heard her daughter's words, and before she could figure out how to get around, she was questioned by Xinjie, and at this time, she quickly slapped her daughter on the shoulder: "Feng'er, you got up early today and got lost in phlegm and talked nonsense." ”

"Mother, Feng'er didn't. She was originally the second room that the third brother married! ”

Aunt Batang was anxious, and slapped her on the shoulder again: "You are still talking nonsense." ”

"Mother, I didn't talk nonsense, it was this vixen who seduced the third brother." Xinfeng is a terrier, and she is also a stubborn temper, no matter how much her mother pats her, she still turns her face and says to Lian'er: "Should I call you Aunt Bai?" Or is it called Aunt Zhou? ”

Xinye was also angry at this time, and he didn't care that Aunt Batang was an elder, and said bluntly: "Aunt Batang, although you are from the Kanto Lan family, but you have married into the Tang family, you are a member of the Tang family, how can you let the niece of the mother's family who does not abide by women's morals talk nonsense in front of her own daughter, and is not afraid of bringing her own daughter?" ”

After listening to Xinjie and Xinye's words, Lian'er realized that this was Lan Xin's cousin, it was really not a family that didn't enter the door, it was all unscrewed, she turned her eyes to look at Xinjie, and smiled: "Why didn't I know that you had visited someone else?" ”

"You woman, don't pretend here, Sister Lan Xin said that you knew that the third brother was her husband, and you shamelessly climbed the third brother's bed first..."

Uncle Batang didn't pay attention to what his daughter said just now, and was talking to Liu Jin, who was following the master to give gifts, when he suddenly found that Liu Jin's eyes became cold. Hearing this, his scalp suddenly exploded, and he slapped Xinfeng in the face: "You shut up for me, you can say such shameless words." It's just that his daughter who has been spoiled from childhood to adulthood, is reluctant to be ruthless, so he uses less than one percent of his strength, but it just makes people feel heavy. However, soon Xinfeng made him regret that he spoiled his daughter too much, and only heard Xinfeng cry: "I'm telling the truth, the third brother, the third brother, the third media, and the sixth hire were married to Sister Lanxin." You're starting now, and you're just an aunt. ”

Lian'er laughed angrily, seeing that her man and Xinye were going to come forward to protect her, she gently pulled their sleeves and shook her head: "Don't interfere in this back house matter." Then turned to Xinfeng: "Your third brother once hired a young lady from the Kanto Lan family, but he didn't worship heaven and earth, and later divorced, so he can't be regarded as a woman married by Xinjie." ”

"Sister Lan is on the sedan chair, why doesn't it count?!"

"I don't know if she's on the sedan chair, as long as she doesn't enter the door, she doesn't worship heaven and earth, she doesn't count. There are many people who admire Xinjie in this capital, if you see a woman, you can make a sedan chair and carry it to the door, even if it is a woman of Xinjie, I am afraid that this old mansion will not be able to live with so many women. Besides, it's Lan Xin, who is pregnant with others, and she was brought over, does Miss Xinfeng think that this will give the Tang family face? Or do you think that the people of the Tang family are fools and should be bullied? Or Aunt Batang, your Lan family's rules are different from others? ”

Aunt Batang was now speechless when asked, and her original sympathy for her niece was washed away by the shame at the moment. In Lan's cognition, it is shameful to be pregnant before marriage, and the fact that he dared to take a wild man's child on a sedan chair was mentioned, and Lan felt even more unreasonable, his face was flushed, and he was speechless for a while. Xinfeng felt that Lian'er was persecuting her mother, so she said angrily: "You vixen, see that my mother is honest, what are you forcing my mother to do?" You......"Before the words were finished, Uncle Batang slapped him again, this time he used three points of strength, and said to Xinjie with a look of deep guilt: "It's uncle who can't teach children, and the virtuous nephew shouldn't worry about an ignorant little girl like her." ”

Xinjie didn't understand that he was pretending, but after all, the other party was the elder of the family, so it was not easy to say too much, so he just said lightly: "If Uncle Batang doesn't want his daughter's reputation to be damaged, don't let them mix with a lewd woman like Lan Xin." ”

Aunt Batang was angry this time: "Third child, Lan Xin is sorry for you, but she was young and ignorant at the time, and now she knows repentance, and she has been begging you for forgiveness all these years, if you don't forgive, forget it, how can you say that she is absurd?" My Kanto Lan family also has a head and a face. ”

Xinjie snorted lightly: "Aunt Batang has been married to the Tang family for many years, maybe General Lan didn't tell you something." A few years ago, General Lan and Major General Lan both went to Kansai, not only retreated from the Geng post of the year, but also promised the Tang family that they would never let Lan Xin leave Kanto for a single step, lest she come out and lose everyone's face. Since Aunt Batang said that she had changed, she might as well go back and ask her how many affairs she has had over the years? General Lan said at the time, If Lan Xin comes to make trouble again, it will be at my disposal, regardless of life or death. If Aunt Batang doesn't believe it, you can send someone to ask General Lan. ”

Uncle Batang is now beginning to regret why he relented and agreed to keep Lan Xin with his wife.

Xintian didn't want to mention it, but the matter had come to this, and as his elder brother and acting as his father, he had to say: "Eighth uncle, it was General Lan who promised it in front of us. also said that if Lan Xin came to make trouble again, any losses, the Kanto Lan family would make up for it. Aunt Eight, I hope you recognize your identity. Eighth uncle, this should not be said by the younger generation, but since the eighth aunt is married, it is not suitable to associate with people who have cut the face of the Tang family. ”

Uncle Batang admitted with difficulty, and said yes again and again. It was only later that he clearly knew the price of his daughter's slap in the face. Liu Jin couldn't get used to Xinfeng, and with the instruction of his master, he once wanted to stop the supply of dry goods from Uncle Batang's family to Yuehuaxuan. Uncle Batang panicked and lost Yuehuaxuan, not only lost one-third of his own dry goods business, but other customers in Beijing would also see the wind and abandon them, so I am afraid that half or even more of the business will be lost. In desperation, I begged left and right, and finally reluctantly agreed after the price was pressed again and again. Therefore, Xinjie gave Lian'er a set of expensive heads, thanking his wife for saving him a lot of expenses. Dazan Mrs. Wangfu, this is a later story.

A confession, the atmosphere that was originally brought alive by the new release of them is now cold because of Xinfeng. On the contrary, they felt sorry for their new sister-in-law, and tried their best to find a fork in the past. Those people who were originally jealous, envious and hated the new third young grandmother, because Xinfeng made such a fuss just now, tried out the attitude of the young masters who were in charge of the main family, and they all learned to be obedient later, and they didn't dare to find trouble. There are many young people in the Tang family in the capital, and it is rare for the family to gather so well, After recognizing their relatives, everyone happily went to the banquet hall to eat.
