Early the next morning, Chunying freshened up. Put on a thick cotton jacket, take care of the second old lady's work, get up, freshen up, eat breakfast and other affairs, and then take advantage of her time to eat, run out of the second gate to watch the people prepare for the carriage for winter outing, add cotton pads, thin quilts, and put a warm stove, and then return to Songyi Temple, install the hand stove, bring a large cloak, pour hot tea into the teapot wrapped in a cotton sleeve, and so on. When everything is ready, the second old lady can also go out.

got into the carriage, Chunying carried a large bag and a small bag and sat in a car with the second old lady, and Jin Yu followed with a teapot. This car is specially designed for women to go out in winter, the carriage is very spacious, so the three of them are dressed so thickly, and they don't feel crowded when they sit inside.

The second old lady was in a good mood when she saw that everything was very complete: "How many steps are you going?" What do you do with so many things? No jokes. ”

Chunying has been serving her for nearly a year, and she is usually quite attentive, so when she listens to the tone of her voice, she knows that she is not really accusing. He smiled and said: "Although it is close, it will take a while to go out from the second gate of our house and get off at the second gate of the Hou Mansion, and besides, there is snow on the road, so it is not easy to walk." If the old lady wanted a cup of tea for a while, she would not be nowhere to find it. After that, he took out a new fur hand and a pair of ear protectors and put them on for the second old lady.

The latter laughed: "Where is the use of this?" Isn't there a hand stove? ”

"Although the hand stove can be warmed, but when I don't hold it, the wind blows and the hand is cold, cold and warm, the opponent is not good, wearing this hand hand, even if you leave the hand stove for a while, you will not feel cold. Besides, even if the old lady holds the hand stove all the way, she can't warm her ears? ”

When the second old lady heard this, she let Chunying put on the handset and earmuffs for herself, and at the same time looked at her seriously and patted the back of her hand gently: "Good boy, I know you are a meticulous person." No one really thought of this for me before. ”

Chun Ying said with a smile: "The sisters are all very dedicated to serving the old lady, but the slaves and maids have strange temperaments, and there are always some strange thoughts, so the old lady is not too noisy." ”

The second old lady smiled, comfortably sleeved her hand, wore earmuffs, held the hand stove, and warmly kao on the back cushion. Then he had the mind to gossip: "Yesterday, you went out, saying that your wife was looking for you, what did you say?" Why haven't you come back in the middle of the night? ”

Chunying knew that she was going to ask, so just in case, she tried her best to flatter, and when she heard this, she hurriedly replied: "There is nothing to say, Mrs. asked about the old lady's diet and daily life, but only halfway through the question, the master called his wife to speak, and the slave waited outside, because he didn't have his wife to speak, he didn't dare to leave, so he delayed the time." [Marshmallow]"

The second old lady smiled: "You are too careful, they are talking to the husband and wife, you want to leave early, just talk to the girls." You are my girl, so naturally you have to rush back to wait for me, could it be that they ignored you all night, and you still have to stand there all night? Your old lady will never blame you for this. Then he was a little curious, "What did the two of them say?" Leaving you alone? ”

Chun Ying was putting on a humble and polite appearance of a loyal maid, and was stunned when she heard the words. Thinking that the second old man and the second wife had finished discussing, the latter told himself that he had let his parents out, which showed that he was discussing his own affairs, and it might not be beneficial if he poked it out in front of the second old lady, so he covered his mouth and smiled: "The old lady is talking in the middle, how can the slave know?" ”

The second old lady thought that her son and daughter-in-law were intimate and were talking privately, and she was in a better mood, so she didn't ask any more.

Jin Yu sat silently on the edge of the car door, quietly observing Chunying's actions, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a short time, I arrived at the Hou Mansion. Everyone got out of the car at the second gate and walked inside, and it was the lady of the black manager who came to greet him, as well as Mei Xiang, the lady of Xiao Chen. Chunying was puzzled in her heart, and reasoned that it was not only the Hou Mansion that invited someone to come to the door to discuss the matter, but also the elders who were equal to the old lady, and it was naturally different from the usual visits, why didn't you see the younger daughters of the Hou Mansion come to greet her?

The second old lady's expression was faint, and the second lady asked, "Why don't you see your wife?" The black lady carefully bowed her head and replied: "My wife is not well, and she is recuperating at home." The second wife raised her eyebrows: "What about your young grandmothers?" "The eldest young grandmother didn't come over today, and the second young grandmother ...... I'm also sick, and the third young grandmother is in front of the old lady. ”

Mei Xiang saw that the black lady only knew how to reply honestly, and her heart was not good, so she hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "The old lady has been looking forward to the second old lady and the second lady coming early in the morning, and she has urged it several times, please come in." ”

Chunying befriended her, so she helped persuade her: "Old lady, wife." It's windy outside, and it's not good to stand cold. The second old lady let out a faint "hmm", and was surrounded by everyone and went to the courtyard of the concubine.

The old lady's room in the Hou Mansion was very lively. Fan Xiru, the third young grandmother who had just entered the door, was laughing with her mother-in-law, coaxing the old man's heart. (No pop-up advertisements) Chunying and his entourage only entered the courtyard gate, and they heard laughter coming from the main room, but they entered the door to see the ceremony, only to find that except for Fan Xiru, the other juniors were not in the house, only two grandmothers with heads and faces, plus four big girls, accompanied by the old lady.

Putting aside the doubts in her heart, Chunying waited for the second old lady to drag off the earmuffs and the big cloak, then helped her to sit down, and then brought the hot tea poured by the agate, held it in her hand to keep warm, and then pulled a handful of brocade feathers, stood behind the second old lady, and began to look at Fan Xiru quietly.

Fan Xiru has changed into a young woman's dress, because she is a new daughter-in-law, she is wearing a gold silk jacket with red ground entwined peonies, lotus chrysanthemums and begonias, and a tooth-colored Ruyi cloud pattern satin horse face skirt with a bun on her head, and a few golden flowers. It is also dotted with two small silver and red gauze flowers, which are festive and festive, and the hair on her face is twisted, and the fat powder is applied just right, which makes her face more and more delicate. It's just that Chunying watched her talk and act, and always felt that something was different, her delicate and well-behaved appearance had not changed, but she was more stable than when she was not married before, and there was a hint of incomprehensible look on her face.

The second old lady also noticed some changes in Fan Xiru, so she smiled and said to the concubine: "Brother You's daughter-in-law hasn't seen her for half a month, but it's better than before." It's just that I see that she is more stable than when she was not out of the cabinet before, and being someone's daughter-in-law is different. ”

Fan Xiru smiled shyly, and approached the old lady of the Hou Mansion, although she didn't say a word, but that action was to tell others that she was coquettish. The old lady seemed to be very useful, and said with a smile: "That's natural, being a daughter is not the same as being a daughter-in-law." Brother and sister, don't look at her loving and pitiful appearance now, in the end, the daughter who came out of everyone is countless times stronger than the one from a small family, and she can't help but love her in everything. Before, her aunt was such a virtuous daughter-in-law, I was not blessed to keep her for a few more years, and I felt sad every time I thought about it, but now that I have such a granddaughter-in-law, God treats me well. ”

Although these words are praising Fan Xiru, they seem to be belittled by An's family. When the second old lady heard this, her heart jumped, and she turned her head to look at her daughter-in-law. The second wife, Zhuo, asked very brightly: "I heard that my sister-in-law is sick, I don't know what the symptoms are?" Does it matter? ”

The old lady frowned when she heard this: "What kind of illness can she have?!" It's just a heart disease! I saw that she was working hard as a housekeeper, so I asked her to divide some affairs for Xiru. She is good, she shouldn't have said nothing, she actually said that she was sick, and she didn't come to ask for peace, Xiru went to ask her for peace, and she still had to show her face. Fortunately, Xiru has a good temper and doesn't take it to heart, and still says good things for her in front of me. Who knew that she was still not satisfied, a few days ago, the third wife of the Fan family came to be a guest, and she actually counted Luo Xiru in front of others. It's really a shame for our Li family! The third wife of the Fan family is really well-cultivated, and she said in front of me that Xi Ru must have done a bad job, which made her mother-in-law angry. I'm almost out of sight! For such a daughter-in-law, it is better to let her recuperate quietly as soon as possible! ”

The old lady suddenly said such a big call, and she was very excited, and everyone in Dongfu was very surprised. Fan Xiru hurriedly persuaded: "Grandmother is angry, this is all granddaughter-in-law's." If it weren't for the carelessness of her granddaughter-in-law and the anger of her mother, this would not have happened......" She wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and the circles under her eyes turned red. I was about to cry when I saw it.

The old lady hurriedly said, "What good words do you have for her?" Don't be afraid, your uncle, grandmother and aunt are all members of their own family and know each other, how can they not know your mother-in-law's personality? When you first entered the door, she was full of praise for you, but now she says that she will change, and she has a temper, which is really worrying! ”

Fan Xiru shook her head, and apologized to the second old lady and daughter-in-law with tears and a smile: "Let my uncle and grandmother and aunt laugh, please don't blame my mother for being rude, she is really not good." ”

Zhuo Shi laughed dryly: "The family doesn't have to be polite, my sister-in-law is not in good health, we all know it as a family, how can we blame her?" He coughed, "By the way, didn't you say that you want to discuss the matter of worshipping your ancestors?" Why don't you see Hou Ye and Brother You? What about Brother Chang'er? ”

Fan Xiru lowered his head: "My father went out to visit friends, and my father-in-law was studying in the study. ”

The second old lady's eyes flashed, and Zhuo's family, who was deeply valued by her mother-in-law, spoke: "This is also too hard-working, it's almost the New Year, and the court officials have taken leave." Our lord met the saint the day before yesterday, and the saint rewarded him, and also asked him to go home for the New Year first, and then arrange the follow-up things after the year. Could it be that Brother Yu is busier than the officials of the imperial court now? According to me, he has been pampered since he was a child, where can he suffer like this? It's better to tell him to rest for a few days and recuperate. ”

"That's what I said." The old lady of the Hou Mansion turned her head to pat her daughter-in-law's hand, "Even your aunt said so, so you can persuade Brother You a few more words." You are still a newlywed couple, you should be more close, no matter how important the scientific examination is, you will not be able to end until the year after tomorrow, where can you be in such a hurry? ”

Fan Xiru blushed and whispered, and then said embarrassedly: "Today, I invited my uncle and grandmother and aunt to come over to discuss business." Only my grandmother and I are here, and my mother is sick again, so why don't you invite my second brother and sister-in-law over? It's okay to consult with multiple people. ”

The old lady of the Hou Mansion sighed: "That's it, I don't have the time to watch them bickering, every time they scold them, they answer, and they are still like that after that." I simply can't see it, so that I don't break my heart, and I have to be secretly complained by them. Now that you have been married, with you and Brother You, both sensible and motivated good children, I don't have the heart to pay attention to them. ”

At this time, even Chunying was secretly surprised. With the old lady's preference for the second young master, would she say such a thing today, is it really discouraged?! What has happened in the Hou Mansion in the past few months? Why didn't you hear any wind from the Dongfu side?

The second old lady seemed to feel that if she continued to talk like this, she would never be able to get to the point, so she cleared her throat and said, "What does my sister-in-law think about worshipping my ancestors, you might as well talk about it." ”

The old lady was busy saying her suggestion, which was nothing more than a grand gesture and a liter of specification, firstly, to tell the ancestors the merits of the second master, and then let him and the clansmen see each other again, after all, it had been many years outside; The second is to introduce the new granddaughter-in-law to the female relatives of the clan. The branch of the Qingguo Marquis Mansion, although it is not the patriarch, has always been famous in the clan, Li You is the future heir, and his wife is the future mistress of the Qingguo Marquis Mansion, so naturally it is also solemnly introduced to the clansmen.

To rearrange the ancestor worship ceremony and the subsequent clan assembly, the old lady has all the things that need to be added. Fan Xiru whispered in her ear from time to time, and when she put forward a few suggestions, she basically used them all on the ground, just making up for her thoughts, and the final plan was very perfect. Zhuo thought about it secretly, and looked at Fan Xiru a little highest.

After discussing the matter, the old lady of the Hou Mansion still had to keep the meal, and the second old lady said: "My son is at home, and I said that I would go back to eat." The former thought that their family had been separated for a long time, so he let them go.

Back in the carriage, Chunying stretched out her hand to test the temperature of the stove, and asked Jin Yu to add a piece of charcoal to the stove in the car, and when she looked back and saw the second old lady's thoughtful appearance, she didn't bother, but only told the coachman to go, but she heard the second old lady sigh, and Jin Yu asked on the side: "Old lady, why are you sighing?" ”

The second old lady smiled and shook her head: "This daughter-in-law married by Xifu...... It's amazing. ”

"Isn't that amazing?" Jin Yu smiled, "Beautiful, virtuous, filial, and housekeeper's talents, I listened to their girls outside, and they were all praising this third young grandmother." It would be nice if our family could have such a young grandmother. Chunying glanced at her.

The second old lady smiled faintly and didn't say anything.! ~！
