Chapter 295 Undercurrent

"You still need to discuss this with me," Qi Xiu said, "just go to the account room to pay it." ”

Second Grandma Qi glanced at Qi Xiu, "Second Master said easily, last year's year was not good, and the Zhuangzi handed in less, but the family's expenses are increasing. Where is the silver? No matter where the second master is, he gave me this item first, and he also honored his wife. ”

"I'll have someone pay you tomorrow." Qi Xiudao, knowing in his heart that if he didn't take out the private money, this account would have to find another reason to spend, and he only hoped that Second Grandma Qi would not open his mouth.

Qi Er's grandmother was already prepared, and handed a list with the number written to Qi Xiu. Qi Xiu looked at the number on the list, and only felt a pain in his flesh, but he had to grit his teeth and nod.

Second Grandma Qi smiled proudly, but she gave Dong'er a look behind Qi Xiu's back.

"Since the second master has plenty of money, it is better to take out a few hundred taels." Dong'er said with a smile, "The eldest master's birthday banquet was originally short of a few hundred taels of silver, but it was grandma who saved her two gold collars and a phoenix." ”

"You, you ...... are too greedy, Qi Xiu is a little anxious.

Second Grandma Qi raised her eyebrows, only counting Luo Dong'er, "Didn't you tell you not to mention it to anyone?" It's just that I suffered a loss, and it's all about everyone's decency. Your second master's silver, you want to give this a head, and you have to send it to the family, who are we, where are we to use that, without the gold collar and the golden phoenix, I just don't wear it. ”

Second Grandma Qi said, glancing at Qi Xiu.

Seeing that Second Grandma Qi was like this, Qi Xiu only had a wry smile left, so he had to promise a few hundred taels of silver.

Qi Er's grandmother turned her anger into joy at this time, Qi Xiu couldn't help but ask softly, and Qi Er's grandmother responded to it all.

“…… The second master knew that I had always been kind and soft-hearted, and I couldn't stand a few kind words, so I fell into the trap, tired and tired. This heart of mine, only God knows. ”

Qi Xiu asked people to call Aunt Cai again, and Grandma Qi Er didn't like Aunt Cai to Qi Xiu, and took Aunt Cai's hand affectionately.

“…… I should have told me where my sister and the child in my womb would have been wronged. knew that it was not my sister's idea, it was the second master's confused mind. Although my sister is at ease to raise the fetus, she gave birth to a white and chubby son to the second master, and everything else is up to me. ”

Sure enough, from breakfast the next day, the dishes on Aunt Cai's table have changed, not only are they still sumptuous, but those taboo things are nowhere to be seen. Grandma Qi Er even gave instructions to the people in the kitchen, but what Aunt Cai wants to eat, even if she prepares, if she needs other money, she can only ask her for expenses.

Grandma Qi is busy with housekeeping, but since then, as long as she has free time, she will do needlework with Aunt Cai, Dong'er and others, and talk about homely things. For a time, the wives and concubines of the pomegranate courtyard were harmonious and happy. Qi Xiu saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but raise his head a little higher, his daughter-in-law was capable, and she was so virtuous, seeing that she could hug her son again, the good days of his second master Qi were still ahead.

Everyone in the mansion naturally noticed the changes in the pomegranate courtyard, not only the Rong family, but also the eldest lady complained less about the second grandmother Qi, and everyone in the house praised it for a while, and the second grandmother Qi was virtuous and capable.

Aunt Cai didn't talk much, and because Second Grandma Qi was worried about her pregnancy and was afraid of being seen in front of people, she was only in the Pomegranate Courtyard except for occasionally going to the eldest lady and the third grandmother. Qi Mansion was already well-dressed and well-fed, and the second grandmother of Qi was even more demanding of her, and the two got along for a while, and they were even closer than sisters. Grandma Qi Er often took out some brightly colored clothes for Aunt Cai. Qi Er's grandmother's clothes, the materials and workmanship are very particular, it is said that it is old clothes, and it is worn once or twice at most, in addition, she also made several new clothes for Aunt Cai, and Aunt Cai is not satisfied.

The wives and concubines in the pomegranate courtyard are harmonious, and it stands to reason that it doesn't matter what Ning Yuanju does, but Xun Qingran was found by the second lady of Qi because of this, and they talked about it twice. As soon as Mrs. Qi opened her mouth, she said how virtuous the second grandmother Qi was, and how friendly and harmonious the wives and concubines were.

"This is the foundation of a prosperous family. Although she is my niece, it is not that I favor her, that is the dignity of the wife and grandmother of the family. Second Lady Qi looked at Xun Qingran meaningfully.

Xun Qingran smiled and nodded.

"They only have one daughter under their knees, but now that Aunt Cai has entered the door, it is different. You and the fourth child are now only one Xuan'er, although Fusheng is good, after all, it is not your own. You go over and talk to the second grandmother and them, this should be learned, and you should learn it, don't let the elders worry. When she said this, Second Lady Qi was still critically looking at Xun Qing's flat belly.

Second Lady Qi's implication couldn't be more obvious, but after all, she had only learned a lesson for a short time, and she didn't dare to really meddle in the affairs of Qi You's room, or say the words of letting Xun Qing dye Qi You put the people in the house. Xun Qingran only didn't understand what Second Mrs. Qi meant, she only smiled vaguely in front of her, and forgot everything when she went out, and did what she had to do. Second Mrs. Qi saw Xun Qing dyed like this, and she was angry, but she couldn't find fault with Xun Qing's dyeing, so she only had a headache every once in a while, and she didn't know if it was true or not, and finally everyone got used to it.

May 27 is the eldest wife's 40th birthday. Xun Qingran got up early and had breakfast with Qi You, so Qi You went to the front yard to help entertain the male guests. Xun Qingran brought Fusheng and Xuan'er, and the mother and son all dressed up, first went to Yinianju to ask for peace to the Rong family, and then came to the eldest lady's side to pay homage to the eldest wife.

The eldest lady wore a rose-purple straight-fitting gown today, embroidered with a pattern of 10,000 words, and her face was happy. Xun Qingran took Fusheng and Xuan'er to salute the eldest wife, and then sat on the side to talk to the eldest lady. After a while, Grandma Qi Er led Aunt Cai over as well. The two kowtowed to the eldest wife, and the eldest lady asked them to help them up.

"You're delicate, go back and rest early." Second Grandma Qi discussed with Aunt Cai.

Xun Qingran raised her head, but she didn't see where Aunt Cai was delicate. It's just that Aunt Cai didn't refute, and the eldest lady also nodded, saying that it would be busy for a while, and let Aunt Cai go back and rest.

"I'll send someone to send the banquet to my sister in a moment." Grandma Qi said, and sent someone to send Aunt Cai back.

Soon, the guests arrived, and the feast of the ladies was set up in the garden. Xun Qingran only accompanied Xun Da * milk and a female family member of the Yongchang Earl's Mansion and sat at a table.

“…… What a rare marriage, the old man doesn't know what to think, but he refuses to agree. "Xun Da* Milk complained to Xun Qingran during the banquet.

Xun Qingran knew that this would be the case.

"The lord thinks more far-reaching than we do, after all, everything can't just look at the present. When the fourth sister entered the palace, it was not a lesson from the past. ”

Xun Da*'s grandmother looked at Xun Qingran, "I have already asked someone to inquire about the affairs in the palace of Yongqing County, and there will be no mistakes." …… Who else would dare to marry the fourth sister? The fourth sister got married, and several aunts and grandmothers also looked better. Approached Xun Qingran again, "Besides, the eldest sister is almost at the age of kissing." Xun Da * Grandma said that she had a little selfish plan.

"The words of the eldest sister, she said that the matter of the fourth sister has nothing to do with her, and the sister-in-law believes it all?" Xun Qingran tried to wake up Xun Da * milk from another angle. Xun Shufang can harm them once, and naturally she can harm them a second time. Xun Da * Grandma will not really be bought by two boxes of antiques, and the antiques are still deceived by Xun Shufang, and they should have been the things of the Xun family.

"We all know the temperament of the wife." Grandma Xun still said in a low voice, "Grandma Xun has been angry with my wife since I was a child. The uncle of the Yang family, everything is good, but he is a little more attentive. The aunt and grandmother inevitably had resentment in their hearts, and many things happened to happen together. In my opinion, my aunt and grandmother are very capable, willing to help others, and have clear grievances. Even if there is something, it is all gone. The marriage she mentioned to her fourth sister was not perfect, but the fourth sister couldn't be better. ”

Xun Da * milk was completely brainwashed by Xun Shufang, and Xun Qingran sighed. But she has nothing to worry about, Xun Shulan's marriage, the eldest master of the Xun family doesn't nod, no matter how much others toss, it's useless.

"When my aunt and grandmother come back one day, I will also persuade the master." Xun Da * milk and Xun Qing dye discussed.

When the banquet was over, Xun Da * Milk's table only listened to one or two folds, and they all said goodbye.

Xun Qingran sent the guests away, felt a little tired, and thought about Xuan'er and Fusheng, so he came out of the banquet and took people back to Ningyuan.

“…… Look at that crazy look, where is there someone in the eyes. An aunt, but it's the niece of the eldest lady. That is, a magnanimous person like the second grandmother can bear her, treat her like a baby, and put her on the table. ”

Passing through a moon gate, there is a bluestone corridor in front of it, and on both sides are one-person high flower walls. Xun Qingran could hear the chattering sound on the other side of the wall.

"No, I can't even stand it. Seeing the second grandmother treat her, all the good clothes and delicious food are for her, even the furnishings in her house are no different from those in the second grandmother's house. Tsk tsk. ”

"And the two girls in her house. When the Dong'er girl saw us, she had to call her aunt and grandma, what kind of faces did they have, pointing fingers, when this was their Cai family. ”

"Hey, her Cai family is just a petty official guarding the city gate, and I heard that the monthly income is not as good as Uncle Zhuang who is in charge of the gate in our house. Because of the second master, their family wore gold and silver, so that the slaves and maids got up. ”

"I heard that Aunt Cai had already ...... with the second master before she entered the mansion" Several mothers-in-law giggled, and their voices gradually lowered.

"Really," a mother-in-law seemed to disbelieve.

"That's fake, when she was a girl, she was very unstable, and she used to provoke men, saying that it was ......"

The mother-in-law who spoke seemed to be more and more excited, and she couldn't bother to lower her voice, only saying that Aunt Cai had seduced a few men at home, and the names of the men were all clear, and those episodes were more like what she had seen with her own eyes.

Although Xun Qingran didn't see it, he could also imagine the mother-in-law's mouth foaming, and couldn't help frowning slightly. Today is the birthday of the eldest lady.,There are a lot of visitors in the house.,If people listen to this.,What will it look like.。。。。
