Chapter 57: The Marriage of My Son, a Mother's Love (VI)
+++++++++++++++++++ the dividing line of the marriage of a loving mother and my son (VI).
After someone came to report the news just now, Chen Biyan was very uneasy, and asked Chen's mother to ask for clarification. Whether it is Xinjie or Lian'er, they are her beloved children, and she can't afford to hurt them. Xinzhu went to work, and entrusted Lian'er to her before leaving, and actually made her feel wronged, how can it be justified.
At this moment, Chen's mother inquired in many ways, and after comparing it clearly, she carefully said it to Chen Biyan.
"Today, Miss Lian was looking at medicinal herbs in the medicine garden, and Mrs. asked Yinfeng to pass on her. The people around the lady are usually not very good to Miss Lian, and today they are even more out of tune, and go to pass on the girl's words, but they don't tell the girl where they are, and they leave without waiting for the girl. When Miss Lian saw Mrs., Mrs. couldn't tell her reason, so she asked Miss Lian directly how the affairs of Baicaotang had been going in the past few days? β
"She asked such a thing in front of Mrs. Fan?" Chen Biyan was not only speechless at this time, but she didn't know how her mother-in-law could take a fancy to such a roasted bun.
Miss Lian was also stunned by Mrs.'s question, but fortunately she became faster, but said that it was all daily chores, and Mrs. accompanied the guests, and then went to tell Mrs. when Mrs. was free. It's a pity that Mrs. Lian didn't know whether she didn't understand or wanted to take the opportunity to attack Miss Lian, and she lost her temper when she landed, saying that Mrs. Fan was not an outsider, and said that Miss Lian was afraid that she was not attentive enough to say one, two, or three, and she had vainly failed our family's attention to her. After saying a few indiscreet words, Miss Lian didn't take care of her wife's face, but said that the usual chores were complicated, and the small things were handled by the stewards themselves, and if the big things were in a hurry, the third young master and the old lady discussed the disposal, and those who could wait were left to wait for the eldest young master to come back and decide. She only helps to look at the accounts herself, and she doesn't understand other chores, and she has no right to ask. He also said that if the wife felt that she was lazy in this way, she could wait for the eldest young master to come back and then discuss assigning her more things to do. The wife estimated that she would have to wait for the eldest young master to come back, so she relieved her tone. I think it's because the wife has put the anger of the three young people in charge of Baicaotang on Miss Lian's head today. β
Although she is not smart in other things, she is not stupid, but every time she encounters something related to the third child, she gets into the horns. Lian'er also knew that she was sick with her heart, so she said that the big thing was waiting for the new day to come back. β
"Miss Lian also saw through this, so she tried her best to push away the matter of Baicaotang in front of her wife. And in front of outsiders, she is even more obedient to her juniors, so that her wife is not too exerted. After a few more words, he let Miss Lian go.
It's just that this Mrs. Fan seems to be very good at reading people and talking, As soon as Miss Lian came out, Mrs. Fan said to our wife, This Miss Lian looks at the knowledge of books and etiquette, if it is because Miss Fan is going to marry her and let her be a child, it is better to hire her as a husband first, and fulfill her, so as not to make Miss Fan unbearable, and affect the harmony of the husband and wife. My wife didn't know what to think, so she immediately agreed. β
"What do you think, She was afraid that Lian'er marrying Xintian would not only be something that her mother's family had nothing to rely on, but also ruined her plan to marry in the capital, and it was unpleasant to look at Lian'er left and right. Recently, she saw Lian'er coming with the third child, she originally wanted to suppress the third child, and at the same time she didn't have to worry about Xintian marrying Lian'er, which felt like a good thing, so she looked at Lian'er a little more pleasing to the eye. Now that the third child has saved her, she has found that she wants to marry the third child, not only to find a girl from a good family, but also to find someone who can be used by her, so she dislikes Lian'er's background again. That's why I'm willing to pick up these Mrs. Fan, the hydrangeas thrown by Mrs. Li. β
"It's still the old lady who can see clearly."
Chen Biyan scolded for a while, not that I could see it clearly, but that she had been my daughter-in-law for decades, and she hadn't grown up, and she was still as naΓ―ve as when she first got married. But you can't say that to her in front of your subordinates, so as to save some face for her. So he changed direction: "It's just that this Mrs. Fan is quite a smart person, how can she be willing to wade into this troubled water?" β
"This old slave inquired clearly, because there was an accident in the Wu Mansion that day, Mrs. Fan and Miss Fan were there, after Sanshao saved them, Miss Fan wanted to marry Sanshao, It is said that she threatened to marry Sanshao even if she was a concubine. The old slave has heard that several young ladies in the city want to marry Sanshao in the past few days, and this Mrs. Fan was the first to come to propose. β
"Ha, it seems that this kid has lost his peach blossom luck, and the hero saves the beauty, hahaha. When he comes back, let's take a good look at his jokes. How to get rid of those peach blossoms, how to protect the lady in his heart. β
Chen's mother was quite sweaty for Sanshao, other people's grandmothers are doting on and protecting their grandchildren, and when they came to the old lady, they were afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and they wanted to take Sanshao for recreation.
"You go and bring my purple peony head and face to the lotus girl, and tell her that no matter what others think, she is my precious granddaughter, as for whether she wants my precious grandson, according to her own preferences, no matter how she chooses, grandma will help her."
Hearing this, Mother Chen's heart calmed down, No matter how the old lady and Sanshao tease, they can't hurt Miss Lian, a girl's family, reputation and face are very important. No matter how smart and capable a woman is, it is inevitable that she will think about it when she encounters this kind of thing, and the old lady will settle her down first to avoid accidents.
In the evening, as soon as the meal was set in the old lady's house, Mrs. Tang came, saying that she was waiting for the old lady's dinner. For so many years, Chen Biyan has never let the rules of being a daughter-in-law, the purpose of her coming today, Chen Biyan has long been clear, but she is silent, let her serve tea, water, cloth, vegetables and soup. Seeing that the meal was finished, the servant cleaned up the table, the old lady rinsed her mouth, and made tea, and Li Shi finally opened her mouth slowly.
"Today's daughter-in-law came to ask the old lady to show her, this cousin has been to our house for three years, long past the age of saying kiss, it is not a problem to delay her so much at home, I think that recently because of the matter in Wu Mansion a few days ago, there are many people who come to thank us, just to find out if there is a suitable cousin, and she is placed, and she is worthy of her aunt."
"Who do you want to find her?"
"The daughter-in-law hasn't thought about it yet, so she is naturally an upright and innocent person. I looked at a few of them that were good, and I wanted to discuss them with the old lady. β
Chen Biyan glanced at her listlessly and let her hold on alone.
"Now it looks like there are two or three families that are good, for example, the Li family who is doing tea business in the east of the city, and the second son of his family has also reached the age of marriage, although his family has no fame, but fortunately, he is rich, and this lotus girl can be a grandmother if she goes in the past. There is also a second son of this Xianyang garrison Lin family, everyone calls him a talent, he has passed the township test last year, and he is afraid that he will also have a chance in the autumn next year. β
"It seems that Mrs. has a lot of plans for Lian'er."
"She is my aunt's niece, so let's take care of her."
"Since you know that she is Xiaoxiao's niece, you should know how important this Bai family's only bloodline is to her. You don't want to interfere in her marriage. If she gets married, she will never let her husband post a dowry, and everything left by her uncle is enough for her to marry beautifully. β
"This daughter-in-law naturally knows that even the dowry of her aunt and grandmother is incomparable to ordinary people."
"Even if there is no dowry from Xiaoxiao, the uncle of the Bai family has left a lot of property, didn't you say the Li family in the east of the city? If I'm not mistaken, the Li family's tea mountain in Donglin is rented by my uncle. β
Mrs. Tang was stunned, she had always thought that the Bai family was penniless for so many years. The Li family's tea mountain in Donglin actually belongs to the Bai family, so doesn't the girl of the Bai family have a lot of property? Coupled with Tang Xiaoxiao's back then, how did she forget about it in the past few years. She always thought that the sister-in-law's things belonged to the third child, At that time, there was no girl from the Bai family, but now with the girl of the Bai family, those things are no longer the third child's. knew that Xintian should marry her as a concubine, so that not only could Xintian's wish be fulfilled, but also a rich dowry.
