Xin Yao saw her mother crying sadly, and hurriedly asked about the separation of the big house, and the old lady had something to say.

When Gu Shi heard this, he really collected his tears and said, "On the day of your wedding, your uncle mentioned it with the strength of wine, but the old lady's face was very ugly, so she didn't say anything more."

Yesterday, your father and your uncle stayed in the study for a long time, and I don't know what to say, and your father didn't tell me in detail when he came back, and I guess the ten* was discussing this matter. ”

Xin Yao said: "Mother, it is good to divide the family, and it is good to divide the family. After splitting the family, I am afraid that the old lady will not be able to live in the capital for a long time, how can she leave the eldest son alone and live in the younger son's house? That's it, the old lady won't agree. ”

"The old lady has always favored your father, and the capital is her mother's house, and she is afraid that she will not return to the south for a while."

"Whether you go back or not, your mother needs to plan."

"Intended?"

Xin Yao nodded.

"Mother, the industry of Jiangfu is all run by the uncle, and the father is studying and being an official, but his ability to make money is not as good as half that of the uncle. If the family is separated and the father's income is used to support a large family, I am afraid that it will be a little difficult. There are two younger brothers who want to start a family and have a business, both of which cost a lot of money. Mother had already made plans. ”

"My son is thoughtful, but this matter is not prevented, the reason why the industry in the house is doing smoothly depends on your father to maneuver in the officialdom. Otherwise, there will be such a big change as in Jiangnan years ago, but the livelihood of our Jiang Mansion has not been affected much, wouldn't your uncle know that there is your father's credit here. ”

Gu Shi smiled and said: "Besides, their brothers have always been harmonious, your father's words, your uncle is willing to listen, and he can't lose our room!" If it weren't for the old lady's partiality in that room, and she made up for it openly and secretly, your uncle and aunt would not have mentioned the separation of the family. ”

Xin Yao heard a little bit of truth, so she didn't say anything more. I gradually had a plan in my heart.

……

After a pillar of incense, Gu was called by the eldest lady's people. Xin Yao had nothing to do, so she took the light catkins that were guarding outside to the garden to eat. Unexpectedly, when I came out of the gate of Qiushui Courtyard, I saw Guihua. Xiao Rong and the two came in a hurry.

It turned out that the banquet in Guiyun Hall was dispersed, and the old lady found an excuse, took Mama Qian's hand and entered the inner room. Guihua in the inner room, Xiaorong has been waiting for a long time. The old lady asked carefully about the inner courtyard of the Xiao Mansion, and after a few words, she let the two go out.

Xin Yao glanced in the direction of Guiyun Hall, smiled, ignored the two of them, and walked straight to the garden.

Gui Hua and Xiao Rong glanced at each other. Keep your head down and wait.

Xin Yao walked halfway and met Bi Moss, Fang Xin was waiting for her under the verandah. Seeing her coming, I hurriedly greeted her, and it was a cold day. just knelt down straight and kowtowed to Xin Yao three times.

Xin Yao motioned for Qingxu to help the person up, and asked about the return journey of the two.

Fang Xin said crisply that the boat returned to the south on February 16, Xin Yao calculated that there was plenty of time, and the master and servant talked while walking, and there was laughter and laughter for a while.

Xin Yao secretly looked at Bi Moss, and saw that his face was also peaceful, and he was slightly relieved.

Gui Hua. Xiaorong saw that the young lady and the maids were talking and laughing, and the two of them had mixed feelings in their hearts and secretly planned about it.

……

Everyone walked in the garden for a long time, and when they saw that there was no scenery to see, they were afraid that the young lady would catch a cold due to the cold wind, so they only coaxed back. But I saw the pavilion in front of me, the third lady and the maid were looking at them with a smile.

Xin Yao had already calculated that her good third sister would definitely find an opportunity to talk to her, but she was not surprised. With a wave of his hand, he motioned for them to follow from a distance, and slowly paced himself.

Jiang Xinshan saw Jiang Xinyao walking forward unhurriedly. The smile on his face faded. She waved away the maid, disturbed the pearl cui on her head, and said, "My sister is so elegant, I have taken the maids to the garden." ”

Jiang Xinshan is wearing a rouge printed long jacket today, the cyan under her eyes is covered with a thin layer of fat powder, and her complexion is still ruddy.

Xin Yao smiled: "What does my sister command?" ”

Jiang Xinshan said: "You and my sisters have been friends for more than ten years, and now they have become families, and it is not easy to meet, so let's talk in one place!" ”

Xin Yao really couldn't think of anything to say to her, so she said, "What does my sister want to say?" ”

Jiang Xinshan covered her lips and chuckled: "I heard that Shen Yushi's youngest son, Shen Li, and Zhang Xinyu, the granddaughter of Princess Huiwen, are married, I don't know if my sister has heard of it?" ”

Xin Yao was shocked, and the smile on her face was still there.

"In the old years, when we were still in Suzhou Mansion, my sister was friendly with that Zhang Xinyu, I wonder if my sister will go to ask for a cup of wine to drink?"

Jiang Xinyao actually had no impression of Zhang Xinyu for a long time. After the Shenfu Dragon Boat Cruise, five or six years have passed. Although the two families are in the same capital, they are only the highest in Zhangjiamen, and a fourth-grade official in Jiang's Mansion can't climb up, and Xinyao has never liked to drill camps, and the two have no intersection.

I vaguely remember that Sister Lan was full moon that year, and her sister Zhang Xinyue occasionally mentioned that Xinyu was detained by her mother in the house and couldn't get out, which seemed to be married. As for how to go around and get married to Shen Li, Xin Yao really didn't know anything.

Jiang Xinshan saw her expression and said with a deep smile: "I'm afraid my sister doesn't know, that Zhang Xinyu was originally married, and she even looked forward to her life, but somehow she regretted her marriage, and she has been delayed until now, and now she is eighteen." Hey, that's an old girl. This time I was able to marry the Shen family, and I don't know who threaded the needle in it. The two golden flowers of the Zhang family both married into the Shen Mansion, and the door of the Shen Mansion rose in the first night, which shows that in the dark, fate has its own destiny. Sister, you say that's the truth? ”

Jiang Xinyao said in a word: "It is this truth, the red thread is held in the hands of Yue Lao, it is yours, you can't escape, it's not yours, you can't grab it." ”

Jiang Xinshan's face sank, but she still smiled: "Hey, if that Zhang Xinyu knew that Shen Li had discussed marriage with his sister and liked his sister, I don't know what he would think?" However, with the sisters of my sister and Zhang Xinyu, I guess I won't care! ”

Jiang Xinyao greeted Jiang Xinshan's mother cordially in her abdomen, and suddenly burst out laughing.

"Sister Xinyu doesn't care if she cares, I can't say. However, my sister once liked Shen Li, and I think the third brother-in-law must care. Sister, it's not too early, let's go home with my brother-in-law early, in case my sister is careless, she says that she leaks her mouth, and disturbs the good days of her sister and brother-in-law's honey blending oil, it will be a sin. My sister still has something to do, go first! ”

After that, he didn't look at how ugly Jiang Xinshan's face was, and threw his sleeves away. A mouthful of turbid air came out, Jiang Xinyao looked at this gloomy sky and felt much more pleasing to the eye.

Seeing the young lady leaving, the light few didn't dare to do more, so they saluted the third lady and hurriedly followed.

Jiang Xinshan's face turned pale, and she smacked at Xinyao's back fiercely, and then returned to Guiyun Hall.

The newcomer returned to the door, and according to the custom, he had to go back before sunset, and Xiao Han urged Jiang Xinyao out twice in the outer courtyard.

Jiang Hongsheng and his wife, Yuan Chen, and Yuan Hao were all sent to the door. Xin Yao pulled her two younger brothers and said that Jiang Hongsheng was afraid that his son-in-law would be in a hurry, so he drove his daughter into the car, and when the Xiao family's car was far away, everyone returned home.

The couple got into the carriage one by one, and Xin Yao saw that Xiao Han was full of wine and his face was damp, so she poured a cup of warm tea for him from the small table in the carriage.

"Xiao Jiuyi, if you drink too much, it hurts your body, you drink less in the future."

Xiao Han first heard Xin Yao say thoughtful words, felt comfortable, took the teacup, drank it all, threw the teacup on the table, grabbed Xin Yao's right hand, and sent it to his mouth.

The man's hot and moist lips kissed the back of Xin Yao's hand, causing Xin Yao to tremble.

"Happy today, drink a few more cups, don't worry, it won't be in the future."

Xin Yao felt that she should slowly get used to playing with her hands in no one's place, so she said quite calmly: "Let you drink less, but I didn't say that you won't drink, I saw that my uncle was a little crooked when he walked, I guess you poured it, go back and beware of my aunt looking for you to settle accounts." ”

Xiao Han gnawed on the back of his white and tender hand, spitting out wine, "Yaoyao, I was poured the most today, father-in-law, several brothers-in-law, Zheng Liang took turns to pour it, how to calculate this account?" ”

Xin Yao covered her mouth with her other free hand and smiled, and said, "If you have the ability, you will pour it back, and if you don't have the ability, you will drink it down, how can it be calculated?" ”

Xiao Han stretched out his long arm, hugged Xin Yao, smelled her fragrance, and said: "Forget about others, that Hao brother in your family is only a little big, so he learns from adults and toasts me two cups." When I didn't know, his cup was filled with white water. ”

The sudden intimacy startled Xin Yao, and after pushing it, she leaned on him resignedly, saying in her heart that Brother Hao's eccentricity, this thing was like his handiwork, and said with a smile: "That's because you married their most precious sister." ”

Xiao Han grinned and said, "I know, so I pretended not to see it and drank it happily." Yaoyao, you are very close to your two younger brothers? ”

"Yuan Hao was just born, and I took care of it single-handedly. Yuan Chen used to spend the most time in my yard in Suzhou Mansion, except for the study, and he contributed to me every month of silver, just to have a meal here every day. ”

Xiao Han lowered his head and whispered in Xin Yao's ear: "In the future, every tael of silver I earn will be contributed to you." ”

"This transaction is a bit of a loss, you gave me all the silver, and I have no money to pay off the account when I drink flower wine outside, and I have to pay it back."

Xin Yao rolled her smart eyes and said with a smile: "In case you look at a stunning one like the third brother-in-law, and you don't have the money to put it in the outer room, you will lead it directly into the door, and it's not me who is sad." ”

Xiao Han laughed, squeezed Xin Yao's little hand hard, and said, "How do you know that I did it?" ”

Xin Yao said angrily: "Where are there so many coincidences in this world, who else will there be besides you?" Drink a flower wine and meet a lovely one, others believe it, but I don't believe it. Besides, what is the division of soldiers and horses, isn't it just those horns in the capital, the people who come into contact with are all characters of three religions and nine streams, five elements and eight works, it is too easy to find such a woman. ”

Xiao Han simply buried his head in Xin Yao's neck, smelled the faint body fragrance, and said with a sullen smile: "The old lady gave you two maids, making you embarrassed, I can't send a woman to her favorite grandson-in-law, and it is not rude to exchange gifts." ”

Xin Yao suddenly felt that the word "courtesy" sounded quite pleasant, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl.
