Because of the permission of the eldest princess, Xiangru immediately asked the sister-in-law Wang on the second 'door' to ask someone to send a letter to Xu's house to inform the uncle, and the messenger brought back a reply, which stated the time and place of the meeting, and eagerly looked forward to Xiangru's arrival.

A few days later, one morning, Xiangru took leave of absence and went out of the house with a few rag dolls she made to visit Xu Dashao's 'milk' and 'milk' Xia Baotong as promised.

The Xu family has a large population, and the Xu family's mansion occupies half of the street, and the other half of the street is lined up with a single 'door' courtyard where other clansmen live, which means that in fact, the entire street is the property of the Xu family, which can be called a big business. The Xu family alone is like this, you can imagine what kind of grandeur the other six families are.

As soon as Xiangru reported her name, the 'door' room immediately enthusiastically led Xiangru in, and after several introductions, Xiangru was led to the courtyard where Mrs. Xu's wife lived.

Hearing the report from the next person, Xu Dashao's 'milk' and 'milk' Xia Baotong 'stood up' and greeted the bedroom with a big belly, Xiangru, who was entering the house, saw it, hurriedly stepped forward and hugged it, and returned to the bedroom surrounded by the girls, carefully helped Xia Baotong to the 'bed', and let her sit firmly with her back against the big pillow.

"Come, sit next to me, let me take a good look at you. I haven't seen it for so long, but I'm getting more and more beautiful, it's really a 'female' eighteen changes. Xia Baotong patted the edge of the 'bed' and asked Xiangru to sit down, the girls lined up to send water to clean their hands, wipe their faces, drink water and rinse their mouths, and put herbal tea and fruits on the small table at the head of the 'bed' in the blink of an eye.

"Come, drink some water first, it's still early, let's talk slowly, can we eat here at noon?" Xia Baotong gave a look, and the little girl handed the teacup to Xiangru.

"Hey, the eldest princess is in a shirt, I'll be allowed to go back in the afternoon." The herbal tea tastes good, and Xiangru drank several sips in a row.

"That's good, your master will come later, let's not see each other for a long time, let's talk together." Xiangru was surprised, "The master is also here?" Can she stand up to the bumps of the carriage now? ”

"I said the same thing, but she didn't, she said that you came to see me first, and I don't know when I have to go to see her next time, anyway, she gave birth early, and the doctor also said that she wanted her to be more active, so she decided, and no one could persuade her. People who are about to become mothers are becoming more and more willful, really. ”

"Maybe the master has her own arrangements, no matter what she says, she is also a doctor, let's wait patiently." Xiangru said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, don't mention her, save people from 'worrying'." Xia Baotong pretended to complain a few words, smiled again, took Xiangru's hand, and asked her carefully how her life was in the Hou Mansion now.

"The Hou Mansion is much more comfortable than in the palace, the eldest princess is in good condition, there is no place to 'worry', the first few months have passed as easily as no one, *** didn't say that I want to take 'medicine' food, I don't even need to go into the kitchen, let alone make snacks for the young master, 'get' me to get up early every day to buy vegetables and have nothing else to do."

"It's 'good' like this, the eldest princess likes you, you do it well in front of her, don't ask you to show any special performance, as long as you show your own skills."

"Well, I think so too, I can't live up to the kindness of the eldest princess. The eldest princess is a good master, very sympathetic, I am wearing the new clothes given by the eldest princess, saying that the clothes in the palace go out of the pixel clothes, there are often hooligans and ruffians in the morning market to disturb people, afraid that I will be misunderstood and bullied, so I gave me a lot of new clothes. Xiangru stood up as she said and turned around to show her uncle.

"I said why are you so beautiful today, sure enough, people still rely on clothes, the eldest princess really loves you, ordinary people of our status are wearing such materials, you walk on the street and everyone treats you as a little 'milk' and 'milk', right?"

"Hehe, then I don't know, but walking outside in such clothes, no one dares to walk next to me, and Uncle Shi also knows how crowded the morning market is, people are next to people, and the roof of the car is car."

"Hahahaha, I thought I was afraid that you would be bullied, but it turned out that you bullied the whole street." Xia Baotong laughed happily.

"Come, tell me some interesting stories on the street, I have only been back to my parents' house to visit my parents once since I became pregnant, and I have never left the 'door' of this hospital, and I am almost suffocated to death, you have seen something new and interesting on the street every day to tell me."

"There are a lot of interesting stories on the street, and I'll tell you all the same."

Xiangru picked up some interesting stories she had seen on the street these days and told them to everyone in the house, I don't know if Xiangru's laughter was too high, her story was obviously still in the foreshadowing part, and there were already many people in the house who laughed so much that they had abdominal pain. All kinds of anecdotes are being told in a 'fine' way, and the outside is in a hurry to report, and Yu Dashao's 'milk' and 'milk' are coming.

"Uncle Shi, I'll pick it up." Xiangru hurriedly got up to greet her.

Xiangru went out of the house, passed through the courtyard and passed through a hall 'door' to the front courtyard, and received Xie Ziyan and others who also entered through the front hall 'door', Xiangru shouted that the master pounced, Xie Ziyan also happily took Xiangru's hand, and the two entered the house affectionately together.

The master and apprentice went straight to Xia Baotong's bedroom surrounded by girls, and with such a little effort, there were two more chaise longue couches under the window, placed next to each other, Xia Baotong had changed here from the 'bed', and the other one was reserved for Xie Ziyan to rest, and the sisters sat side by side head and shoulder.

The girls still waited for Yu Dashao's 'milk' and 'milk' to clean their faces and drink water to rinse their mouths, and only retired most of the people in the house when they were done, leaving only the three hosts and guests, their own personal girls and a few second-class girls who served tea, snacks and fruit plates.

"You're really here, really, how? Ride? Xie Ziyan relaxed and leaned on the couch, and Xia Baotong's question came after her.

"You're asking strangely, can I ride in a car like this now, you don't know how bumpy the road is? I came in a sedan chair. ”

"Just say it straight when you sit in a sedan chair, such nonsense, you also know that you can't 'mess' around now? If you don't stay at home honestly, you run out on this hot day, and your father-in-law is actually relieved of you. ”

"He just sent me." Xie Ziyan said while drinking honey water.

"Huh? Why didn't you say it earlier? What about people now? Why didn't the people outside stop it? Xia Baotong's eyes widened.

"I'm gone, take me to the 'door' room and leave. It's okay, he's just a stopper, he made an appointment to eat out at noon, just dropped me off, and picked me up after he finished eating. ”

"Xiangru saw it, your master just ran to me to show off their deep relationship between husband and wife." Xia Baotong squinted at Xie Ziyan with an expression of "I can see through you".

Xiangru pursed her lips and snickered and remained silent.

"Go and go, what to say, I'm really not ashamed, can you say this kind of thing in front of Xiangru, people are not like you have no skin and no face." Xie Ziyan slapped Xia Baotong with her backhand, put down the cup, and beckoned Xiangru to come closer.

"Come and sit down and let me see, I haven't seen you for more than a year, it's really getting more and more beautiful. Is it okay in the Hou Mansion? Before Xie Ziyan spoke, a girl came over with an embroidery pier and asked Xiangru to sit.

"It's 'good' in the Hou Mansion, and the eldest princess treats me well." Xiangru sat down as she said, holding Xie Ziyan's knees and smiling sweetly.

"Thanks to the eldest princess, the queen mother feels sorry for the baby 'daughter', you can be out of the palace for nine months, and you don't have this blessing if you change any royal family, you have to do things well with the light of the eldest princess."

"Yes, I'll do a good job."

"Okay, okay, Xiangru knows how to do these things without you 'handing' them, she is much smarter than you, so you don't have to '' this heart with her, it's good that you don't ask others to follow '' your heart." Xia Baotong interrupted again.

"Go and go, know that you are jealous, and do not see you in general."

"Huh~" Xia Baotong flew Xie Ziyan with a roll of his eyes, and suddenly remembered something, calling Xiangru, "Xiangru, I seemed to see you bring a burden when you first came?" ”

"Yes, Uncle Shi didn't mention it, I forgot it, I patronized and helped you, and I don't know where to put it?" Xiangru remembered her own things, got up and looked around.

A girl in the house remembered this and ran outside to get a burden of white 'flowers' on a blue background.

"Miss He, this is the burden you brought, the girls have put it away for you."

"Thank you."

Xiangru took the burden and sat down, put the burden at Xie Ziyan's feet and untied it slowly.

"What's such a big bag?" Xie Ziyan and Xia Baotong were very curious.

"It's nothing, it's just a few rag dolls for the younger brothers and sisters to play with in the future." Xiangru said, and the burden on her hand was also untied, and inside were three pairs of strange-looking animal dolls, all of which were made in a hurry these days.

"Yo? Is this a ragdoll? It's not the same as what you buy on the street, it's so good. The two mothers-to-be fell in love with it as soon as they saw it.

"This is an occasional time when I heard the eldest lady say that I saw this animal-style rag doll at a friend's house, and it looks better than the traditional one. Later, I heard that the master and uncle were about to give birth, so I thought about making a few for my younger brothers and sisters to play, but unfortunately the craftsmanship was not good, and I wanted to do it more carefully, but I thought about coming to see the master and uncle today. Xiangru modestly made it up.

"No, I think it's 'good', vivid, and more animal-like, and your younger brothers and sisters will like it when they grow up in the future." Xia Baotong couldn't put it down, look at this and pick up that.

"That is, Xiangru's outstanding work is not only the kitchen work, but her embroidery work is also the best, and the 'flowers' on Aunt Rong's clothes were all done by Xiangru at the beginning." Xie Ziyan's tone was full of pride, such a good apprentice was hard to find with a lantern, so she was called to get it, how could she be unhappy.

Xia Baotong couldn't see Xie Ziyan's smug look, and she wanted to raise the bar as soon as her eyes flew, but Xiangru took the lead, hooked the attention of the two with the story she hadn't finished before, and continued to tell all kinds of interesting stories she saw in the morning market.

The second half of the morning passed in various stories, and Xu Dashao did not come back at noon, only the three of them had lunch in the room together. After the meal, the two pregnant 'women' couldn't stand their 'essence' strength, their faces 'revealed' tired, the girls waited to fall asleep on the same 'bed', and Xiangru also lay on the couch and took a nap.

Half an hour later, everyone rested enough to wake up, the two young 'milk', 'milk' and 'essence' recovered a little, and cleaned up under the service of the girls, Xia Baotong waved away all the subordinates, leaving only the three of them in the house, closing the 'door' and starting to talk about business.

Xiangru has been in the palace, only relying on the news brought in by Imperial Doctor Shao to understand the progress of the plan outside, and the bits and pieces are not very complete, at this time I took a nap, the excitement of the morning has passed, Xia Baotong and Xie Ziyan are also in the mood to explain the progress of the plan to Xiangru in detail.

Her eldest brother has successfully fallen into the abyss of *** and is hopelessly 'cured', and the family's cash has been lost, and she is thinking about selling the land to raise gambling funds, just waiting for the fifty acres of land to be sold, it is time for the two-step plan.

"The market value of 50 acres of land is nearly 300 taels of silver, which is enough to buy a small courtyard with a single 'door' in a remote place in the capital, but at the gambling table, you may be able to lose a 'fine' in one game." Xie Ziyan said.

"Alas, when selling land, pay attention not to let the He family make too much trouble, if everyone in the county knows that the He family has promised the eldest 'daughter' to the Lu family, then our matchmaker will be passive when she goes to the 'door'. It feels like I'm going to the bad guy's marriage. Xiangru smirked.

"Poof~" Xie Ziyan and Xia Baotong shook their heads with a smile, "We obviously want to marry bad people." ”

"You are here to save the innocent young 'girl' out of the fire, this is not called destruction, this is called accumulating virtue, the Buddha will thank you. Our matchmakers are innocent, they don't know anything, everything is misled by the He family, it's all their fault. Xiangru rubbed her hands and stomped her feet, looking innocent.

"As soon as the matchmaker's 'door' proposal is exposed, the Lu family will not be willing to rest, and the He family should have a lively look." Xie Ziyan said with an expectant kiss.

Xiangru pulled the corners of her mouth and gave a smile 'meat' not smiling expression, and forked a piece of plum 'meat' with a toothpick and put it in her mouth, she also looked forward to this excitement in her heart, but unfortunately she couldn't watch it in person.

It's a pity

Entering the 'Door'
