Chapter Fifty-Eight: Mother-in-law
The main courtyard of Dingfu has three rooms and seven buildings, and after the old lady Ding was raised, he moved out of the main courtyard and went to Jinsong Garden with his wife to retire. The main courtyard is a long house to live in, Mrs. Ding is in charge of all matters in the Ding Mansion, and Mrs. Tai not only accompanies the old lady all day long, but most of the time recruits her granddaughter to accompany her, and she doesn't care about the affairs of the house, and she opens her hand. Ding Minhou was at the door, and the eldest lady in front of Zhuyu, the eldest girl, jumped open the curtain, bent her knees and said with a smile: "Mrs. Fang Cai is talking about the third lady, please come in." β
Ding Min didn't dare to hold the young lady's shelf in front of Zhuyu, and also smiled and held Zhuyu, "Sister Zhuyu, go to my house when you have time, the pair of purses are embroidered." β
"Miss Lao, it's not a slave." Zhuyu glanced at the room and said in a low voice: "The slave maid reminds the third lady that the wife used half a bowl of bird's nest porridge at noon today, and the eldest lady of the Lanling Marquis Mansion sent someone, Mrs. Β·Β·Β· The slave is not very happy to look at. β
"I'll just leave after a few words, and I won't disturb my mother's rest." Married to the servants beside the wife, just for this time, Ding Min shook Zhuyu's hand to indicate that she had written it down, and Zhuyu smiled: "There is a third lady accompanying the wife, and the wife must be happy." β
Ding Min curtched after entering the door and said, "Mother An." β
"It's Min'er?" The eldest lady was originally lying on the Luohan Collapse, but she heard Ding Min's voice and slowly got up, "Come here." β
"Yes."
Ding Min didn't dare to be careless, walked to Luohan's bed with a respectful smile on his face, bowed down and said, "It's my mother, isn't it my daughter?" Ding Min glimpsed that the eldest lady could no longer see any annoyance as ordinary and peaceful, Ding Min took the initiative to beat his legs, the past life and the present life were added to one place, Ding Min can despise anyone, and he is confident that he can change his life against the sky, but in front of his mother-in-law, Ding Min never dared to be presumptuous, and was glanced at by his mother's perceptive eyes, Ding Min had a feeling of being seen through.
The eldest lady dragged Ding Min to get up, let him sit beside her, patted Ding Min's hand and said, "I know that you are filial, and the slaves and maids do the matter of beating your legs, you can talk to me." β
The meaning of the eldest lady's words is that Ding Min is a young lady, the young lady she raised is not a leg-beating job, the eldest lady has never been close or distant from the concubine, but she is willing to carefully raise the concubine, rarely practice the concubine, and raise the concubine who only bows and grovels, and loses her face. Dingfu's daughters are very well-behaved, needlework is popular, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are very good.
Ding Min accompanied the eldest lady to chat, food and clothing, all said, Ding Min's original purpose was to be unable to speak, and the eldest lady always refused to give Ding Min a chance to say what to let Ding Rou return home.
"Madam, Miss Fifth is here."
The eldest lady had a sincere smile on her face and said, "Let her in." β
"Mother."
The eldest lady's own daughter, the fifth young lady Ding Shu, approached lightly, Ding Min gave way of position, and Ding Shu smiled at Ding Min first: "Third sister." Then he sat next to the eldest lady, pouted and complained: "Mother didn't tell me about my cousin's coming to the capital. β
"How did Shu'er know?" The eldest lady pulled the broken hair in front of Ding Shu's forehead and said with a smile: "Did you force Mother Li to ask?" β
Ding Shu nodded embarrassedly, and the eldest lady poked her forehead, and said angrily: "If you have this ability, you will force Mother Li to ask you, you don't have any scheming." Ding Min listened to the slight red face next to him, and always felt that the eldest lady meant something. Before Ding Min was reborn, Zhu Neng invested in the Four Princes' Mansion for a while, and cooperated with the King of Xinyang to break the Mongolian Tartars, the husband was honored and his wife was noble, Ding Shu was the third lady, and the most important thing is that Zhu Neng has no concubine, and he is the happiest of all the sisters who married in the Ding Mansion.
Compared to Ding RouΒ·Β·Β· Ding Min saw that Ding Shu was snuggled in the arms of the eldest wife, and Ding Shu was much better than Ding Rou in the previous life, because Ding Shu was the eldest wife of the eldest daughter, so she would bother to arrange it. When Ding Min thought of his cousin Zhu Neng, he felt quite uncomfortable, even if he was reborn, Ding Min had a good impression of Zhu Neng again, and the eldest wife would not allow Ding Min to compete with Ding Shu.
Ding Shu had met Zhu Neng two years ago, and had a hazy good impression of him, and heard that the eldest lady said that the third aunt's family would enter Beijing in two days, and got the definite news, Ding Shu said shyly, "Mother, you laugh at me." β
The eldest lady smiled and said softly: "Shu'er, you have to remember that your cousin is a cousin, but you are not allowed to do rude things." β
"Well, I remember." Ding Shu nodded, no matter how pleased she was with her cousin, she would not lose her sense of proportion, "By the way, won't my father go home as the sixth sister of Shou Liu?" β
Hearing Ding Shu mention Ding Rou, Ding Min saw that the eldest lady was stunned again, and Ding Min said: "Mother, the sixth sister must know that she is wrong, they are all sisters, how can there be a grudge that cannot be resolved?" The sixth sister is really pitiful in Zhuangzi, my father is a full birthday this year, and both children are happy and happy. β
"The sixth sister hurt the third sister, and you still speak for her, the third sister is too kind."
The eldest lady patted Ding Shu's back, leaned into the cushion, and glanced at Ding Min, "Min'er said that Ding Rou should be allowed to go home?" β
"All mothers are in charge, and daughters don't dare to interject." Ding Minying bowed, and the eldest lady moved her lips, "I have written it down, Min'er is good if she has a heart, you are a sister, and it will be good for you to be tolerant in the future." β
"Mother's lesson is that her daughter doesn't dare to hold a grudge against the sixth sister, she is just confused for a while, and when the sixth sister returns home, the daughter will definitely get along with her, and she will never fight with the sixth sister again, let her do something."
Ding Min smiled magnanimously, "There is something that my mother knows, the last time my daughter went out of the house, I heard that there were merchants hoarding food, and it may not be groundless for no reason, I am afraid that the south is not good." β
The eldest lady frowned and said: "You can see what Shang Jia did and tell me, and it is not in vain that I love you, I see that the girl next to you is very suitable for Li's mother's temper, yesterday I heard Li's mother say that she plans to accept her as a goddaughter, Li's mother is my companion, I have no children and no daughters in my life, I am worried about having a daughter to accompany her." That's good, I want to take the red dress from you, and I can't let you lose, Zhuyu can get along with you, and give it to you with Cuiyu. β
"My mother is so good to the third sister, and she is willing to do it." Ding Shu pursed her lips, and the eldest lady said: "It's not reluctant, it's absent-minded, and giving Min'er is the fate of fulfilling their master and servant." β
Ding Min curtsied and said, "Thank you, mother." β
Zhuyu Cuiyu stepped forward to say goodbye to the eldest lady, tears were clouded, and the eldest lady said: "It's just to serve the third lady and change the master, I can't let you serve in vain, no one has two ingots of plum blossom silver and two feet of fabric." β
"Thank you, Mrs. Grace."
Ding Min kept smiling, saying goodbye to the eldest lady and leading the pearl jade back to the embroidery building, how can the two of them be loyal and reliable to the red dress, the eldest lady is to warn her, she has to make all the small movements The eldest lady is clear, why didn't she deal with Ding Rou in her previous life?
ps normal mother-in-law, normal big family. Rebirth crossing is not omnipotent, a woman who can sit firmly in a mother-in-law, it's not simple, the eldest lady is the highlight of the story, it's not that you are reborn and a head taller than everyone.
