Yuan Niang looked at Sanniang in amazement when she heard this: "What's wrong with me?" ”

Sanniang said solemnly: "I remember that the previous female gentleman taught us that children should solve problems for their parents, and everything should be in front of their parents, isn't that so?" ”

Seeing that Yuan Niang nodded, Sanniang said again: "Big sister, you are now married to the Bai family, so the eldest brother-in-law is your parents, is it also your parents?" Why can't you serve your uncle like your second uncle and second aunt? ”

"I ......" Yuan Niang was a little confused, although she had only been married to the Bai family for three days, she had also done everything to put her uncle first, respected and obedient, and never thought of disobedience.

Sanniang sighed: "Big sister, have you ever thought about what the eldest brother-in-law's parents are most concerned about now?" ”

Yuan Niang frowned and thought for a moment when she heard this, then nodded and said, "Naturally, I am the most worried...... Husband's test. Because it was not smooth to call her husband, Yuan Niang paused with a little blushing.

Sanniang nodded: "Now that you know, why don't you want to solve problems for your uncle, you just want to hide in the inner courtyard to hide and be idle?" You are obviously worried about your little reputation, and you just want to be a virtuous wife who is praised on the face. But is your reputation really that important compared to affordability? ”

Yuan Niang really felt aggrieved now: "It's not that I don't want to solve problems for my family, but I, a woman, can't help my husband go to the examination room, what can I do?" ”

Sanniang disagreed: "Do you know that big sister, the examination is not just as simple as going to the Gongyuan to take the exam. Entering Beijing a few months in advance is to make friends with candidates of the same year, compete in Wenmo, and accumulate contacts by relying on family connections? This is also the reason why the children of the family always have to go to Beijing for exams several months or even a year and a half in advance. If you don't believe me, ask the second aunt. This was not the case with my uncle and my father. ”

Yuan Niang looked at Bai, Bai thought about it and nodded, Yuan Niang still wanted to speak but was stopped by Sanniang reaching out.

"If the brother-in-law wants to concentrate on only reading the books of sages and sages, and doesn't want to waste time with people and dance and get distracted, then she needs someone to help her connect the network of relationships in the capital. Big sister. There are no outsiders here, and I am not afraid of my aunt telling you that I have no rules, and I ask you why you should marry a woman. In addition to valuing women's makeup, what is most important is family background? In fact, to put it bluntly, it is just to value the layer of connections behind the family background. ”

As the daughter of the Wang family, Yuan Niang has also learned some of these superficially. They are not just filial wives. Good wives and good mothers, if their husbands enter the officialdom, they must also be virtuous helpers. It is said that the harem is a microcosm of the imperial court, but in fact, the backyard is not the epitome of officialdom?

"That'...... What does the third sister mean that she wants me to go to Beijing with my husband? Yuan Niang said uncertainly. Ya * Wen * Yan * Love * First * Fa

Sanniang nodded: "You didn't accompany you to the mountains and rivers, you went to make some connections for your eldest brother-in-law." ”

Bai Shi listened to it from the sidelines, and his eyes lit up.

"But I, I don't know anyone?" Yuan Niang was a little at a loss.

"Big sister. You forgot? My uncle and grandmother and my ninth aunt are still in Beijing! I remember that my uncle and grandmother were the most kind, and they have always loved their eldest sister, and this time you got married. Although my uncle and grandfather's family couldn't come back, my uncle and grandmother and Aunt Nine all came back with generous gifts. And Aunt Nine is the same age as us. In previous years, every time I went back to Qingcheng County, I was closest to several of our nieces. If you go to the capital, your uncle and grandmother and Aunt Nine will definitely introduce you, so you don't have to worry about not being able to recognize people. ”

Yuan Niang felt that Sanniang's words were very reasonable, and couldn't help but say: "Then after I go back, I will mention to my father and mother, this time I will accompany Xianggong to Beijing together?" ”

Sanniang pondered for a moment, but shook her head: "Big sister, it's not good for you to bring up this matter." ”

Although it is important to be a daughter-in-law, the uncle is like your own real parents, but you must not expect this pair of "parents" to treat you as a daughter in the same way. Ancient and modern.

She doesn't know the behavior of the Bai family's parents, but she has just married, and it is always not wrong to be cautious. This time, Bai Yusheng went to participate in the examination, if he could finally get the title of the gold list, it would be the best, if not, no one knew if the parents of the Bai family would blame their daughter-in-law for their son's failure to pass the exam. Do you think it was the daughter-in-law who distracted her son and distracted her energy, so she fell off the list?

Therefore, it is best for the Bai family to raise this matter themselves.

It's just that Sanniang couldn't say this, so she looked at the Bai family.

Bai also felt that this matter was feasible, and the most important thing was to twist Yuan Niang's dead brain scripture. Otherwise, even if she wanted to let Yuan Niang follow, Yuan Niang would be uneasy in her heart.

Seeing Sanniang look at it at this time, the Bai family immediately understood that this matter really couldn't let Yuan Niang, the bride, speak.

"I'll find a chance to tell your aunt about this matter, don't be silent after you go back, and when your mother-in-law asks you to go to the capital with Yusheng, don't agree too quickly, think about it before answering."

Yuan Niang frowned: "Why do you want to do this?" ”

Bai glanced at Yuan Niang: "Mother tells you to do what you do, don't ask why!" Or do you forget your mother now that you have a mother, and you don't want to listen to my words? ”

Yuan Niang hurriedly said: "My daughter just obeys her orders." ”

Sanniang couldn't help but laugh when she saw it on the side, she didn't know that the Bai family still had such a side. This second aunt she usually only sees when she asks Sun to say goodbye, and every time she sees her, she looks taciturn and looks down, Sanniang once suspected that she would not move her eyes even if a fly flew to stop on the tip of her nose.

Sanniang coughed lightly and hid her smile: "Second aunt is afraid that you will agree too quickly, so that the uncles and aunts of the Bai family feel that you are not reluctant to them, so they are sad and sad." ”

Bai couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. Yuan Niang finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Bai's anger turned to joy.

At this time, someone outside reported that Miss Fifth was here. The eldest sister of Yuan Niang has always loved this lively sister very much, and went to greet her with a smile.

"You sisters have a good chat, I'll send someone to the front yard to see if I want to prepare a banquet from the inner courtyard and send it over." Bai said with a smile.

The three sisters responded with a smile, and the Bai family went out, she was going to give a letter to her sister-in-law, so that she could come to Wang's house on time. At this point, she has no way to reverse Yuan Niang's temperament, she can only be a mother who will do more for her. She was even more glad that she married Yuan Niang to the Bai family, and she could still manage her, and fortunately, the situation in Bai Yusheng's family was relatively simple, and there were not too many dirty things. If Yuan Niang is married to a big family like the Wang family, then she may only have time to worry about her.

Thinking of this, Bai couldn't help but think of Sanniang. The kid was a clever man with a good heart. Thinking that Zhao was also sincere to people when he was alive, and he had always respected her second sister-in-law, he couldn't help but sigh.

Thinking so, Bai saw two people in front of him walking towards this side.

The one who walked in front had a good appearance, although he was a little old and had a sallow face, but he could still vaguely see the demeanor of his youth.

"The concubine has seen the lady." When the woman saw Bai, she hurriedly stepped forward and took a few quick steps, saluting respectfully.

Bai Shi stretched out his hand to help him, and said with a smile: "You don't need so many courtesies in your own home, didn't you say that your body was a little uncomfortable yesterday?" Why don't you have a good rest? ”

The person who came was Aunt Ruan from the second room.

"My aunt said that she was going to come to say hello to the eldest lady and eldest aunt." The little maid behind Aunt Ruan said.

Hearing this, Bai Shi said softly: "My uncle asked the old man and the eldest master to invite them to the front yard, and Yuan Niang is talking to Sanniang and Wuniang." You should go and see the eldest lady first, and it will not be too late for the uncle to wait for him to return to the inner courtyard. ”

Aunt Ruan hesitated: "Then I'd better come back to see the eldest lady later, so as not to disturb a few young ladies to talk." ”

Bai Shi shook his head: "I said that I don't want so many courtesies in my own home, you are not in good health, and it is not easy to get up, how can you toss and toss back and forth like this?" ”

Aunt Ruan said: "The concubine is much better now, and her spirit is especially good today, so she is not in the way." ”

Bai has been with her for more than ten years, and knows her temperament, so he let her go.

Aunt Ruan was the eldest maid who served in Sun's room back then, and she was trusted by the Sun family like today's licorice. Sun originally pointed to several people to come, but Wang Song refused, and finally she sent her most trusted personal maid to Xicui Courtyard, and let people spread the word that the elder gave it, and she didn't dare to resign, she was even willing to give it to the big maid as a mother-in-law, if Wang Song, the concubine, still disliked it, it would be a slap in the face.

Wang Song still wanted to refuse, but the Bai family stopped Wang Song.

"Rui'er also went to the outer courtyard with the master, you can stay in the main courtyard to eat today, and when you see your uncle later, you can also meet Rui'er by the way." The first few times I asked Ruil to see you, you pushed it back, and this time it's really nice to see you. ”

"The concubine was a little sick a while ago, and I was afraid that the third young master would be sick. Now that I dare to come out to meet people. Madam, you don't always have to let the third young master visit the concubine, the concubine is very good. Over the years, thanks to Mrs. raising him under her knees and teaching him with the second young master, he was able to know how to read and keep etiquette, and the concubine was very grateful for Mrs. 's kindness. ”

Bai sighed and stopped persuading.

Bai Yusheng had been accompanied by several brothers of the Wang family in the outer courtyard, and it was not until after dinner that he was sent to the backyard, but because he was poured two meals of wine in a row, he was already drunk and a little unconscious.

Fortunately, the Bai family had already asked people to prepare a decanting soup, and asked Bai Yusheng to be helped to rest, and Yuan Niang was asked to wait on the side. Bai glared at his two sons, who obviously hadn't drunk too much: "I know that your eldest brother-in-law and eldest sister are going to rush back today, why did you pour him so much wine?"
