Zhi Baochai left Guangzhou, and he didn't see Baoyu. Xu is because there was that embarrassing scene, and Xu is because Baoyu is busy and has never come in to meet Baochai. But everyone in the family knew why the two didn't meet, and they all tacitly didn't mention it.

However, after Baochai left, Baoyu still resumed his previous morning and dusk provinces, and came to Xing Shuang every day to say goodbye.

On this day, the two aunts and nephews were talking, and Wang Xifeng came over and said to Xing Shuang: "Governor Lin was born the day after tomorrow, and he handed a post to our family. Yesterday, I asked the master, saying that the governor's yamen was busy these days and couldn't spare time, so he asked us to send someone to send a congratulatory gift and drink two glasses of wine and come back. ”

Xing Shuang said distressedly: "The day after tomorrow, your sister's horse farm officially auctioned the first batch of horses, and I was called to attend, and I am afraid that I will not be idle." ”

Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "Our daughters don't have any hard work, I also have something to do the day after tomorrow, I went to ask Yinglian, and she also has important things at school." ”

Xing Shuang asked again: "What about Lian'er and Cong'er?" ”

Wang Xifeng said: "The uncle went to Zhangzhou to pick up his cousin, and the second master has been in retreat again during this time, and I don't know what came out." ”

Xing Shuang twitched the corner of her mouth and said, "Then it's better to call Ben to go." ”

Baoyu smiled on the side: "Auntie, why don't you go with me?" The factory has been relatively stable these days, and there is nothing major. It doesn't take much time for me to take a day to give a congratulatory gift. ”

Xing Shuang and Wang Xifeng were both overjoyed, Wang Xifeng smiled and said, "Good brother, this is really timely rain." Ming'er, I will send you a congratulatory gift in the courtyard, and everything will be handed over to you. ”

Baoyu just said yes, sat down for a while and left.

Wang Xifeng stayed here, and continued to talk with Xing Shuang, and the two talked about Tanchun's marriage, Wang Xifeng said: "The Xiao family is also polite, since they got married, they have to send some things over every once in a while." Today is the embroidery of the south of the Yangtze River, and tomorrow is the dim sum of the capital. If you want me to say, it's different if it's a woman in charge. ”

Xing Shuang also laughed, she was extremely satisfied with this marriage, not because the Xiao family gave the Jia family things, she didn't care about these, but the Xiao family's attention to their daughters was visible to anyone with a discerning eye.

The marriage of this child has never been a matter of two people. Especially in ancient times, it was the union of two families.

"Did you return the salute?" Xing Shuang asked.

Wang Xifeng smiled: "Then can you still go back?" The things sent by the Xiao family are all of the highest quality, so naturally I can't let people underestimate our family, right? ”

Xing Shuang didn't ask anything back, but only said to Wang Xifeng: "Mrs. Xiao is polite, we have to be respectful, don't be too troublesome in the future, maybe the contact will be more cordial." ”

Wang Xifeng sighed: "Such relatives are easier to get along with." It's like the Li family, as soon as it comes to the New Year's Festival, this gift will give me a headache. ”

Xing Shuang knew that the Li family was really troublesome, and she really felt sorry for her daughter-in-law, so she said: "It's better to change it in the future, prepare it together according to the gifts for each family, and don't go through those false ones." Anyway, your cousin is not at the main house now, and has gone to Zhangzhou. Mei just thinks I'm not as good as her, and I can't embarrass your cousin. ”

Who knew that Wang Xifeng listened, but said with a straight face: "There is no reason to destroy the prestige of the family, what can the Mei family be if it is a scholarly family, where are we worse than her?" I can't let my wife lose face outside, even if my wife doesn't care, I have to let her see our wife and respect her heart. ”

When Xing Shuang heard this, she couldn't help but cover her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed.

"You girl, I should have fought for you, but you fought for me?"

Wang Xifeng also felt that he was on his own, and laughed embarrassedly: "Who fights for whom, isn't it all the same thing?" When Mrs. Yuan was at home, she didn't let us little ones suffer a trace of grievances. Now that this family is for me, I naturally have to be like my wife, and I can't let our family lose face. ”

Xing Shuang slowed down, smiled lightly and nodded, feeling very useful.

Such a woman, where is there still a shadow in the original book. Her respect for herself also made Xing Shuang very pleased.

"Good boy, with you in charge, I am relieved."

Wang Xifeng didn't know why his wife suddenly said this, but she thought that maybe it was her previous words that made her feel happy, and she was happy in her own heart.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked for a while, and it was noon after a while. Zhen Yinglian brought someone to set the meal, and when she saw Wang Xifeng there, she joked to her: "I'm busy with my feet and don't touch the ground, but you are grinding your teeth here and chatting." ”

Wang Xifeng got up to help her set the meal together, and after finishing it, the two of them sat down on Xing Shuang's left and right and began to eat.

While eating, Yinglian suddenly said: "I heard a news today, saying that the Zhen family in Jiangnan was copied." ”

Xing Shuang's hand trembled, knowing that the time to come had finally come.

"What's going on?" Wang Xifeng was very surprised: "Okay, copy whatever you say." After the New Year's gift-giving, I haven't heard any movement. ”

Xing Shuang asked Wang Xifeng: "His family is an old friend of yours, why didn't he even say it to you?" Did you tell your aunt? ”

Wang Xifeng shook his head: "My aunt didn't believe it, no, I have to ask." ”

After saying that, she didn't eat anymore, got up and went back to her own yard.

As soon as she went back, she called Feng'er and told her: "Something happened to the Zhen family in Jiangnan, you sent someone to inquire, what happened to me, my aunt knows." ”

Feng'er answered, and Hongyu was coming in from outside. Wang Xifeng grabbed her again and asked, "Something happened to the Zhen family in Jiangnan, do you know?" ”

Hongyu responded: "I heard my second master say a few words, didn't my aunt hear about it?" said that he was greedy for ink and over a million, and his home was copied. ”

Wang Xifeng frowned, and asked Hongyu again: "What else do you know?" ”

Hongyu thought about it again and said, "The second master doesn't know much, and he also heard from an antique dealer." said that the Zhen family was too greedy for ink, Long Yan was furious, and sent someone to order the house, the Zhen family, all the men were exiled, and all the women were sold to be officials and maids, even a few married daughters, none of them escaped, but nothing happened to the families of several in-laws. ”

After saying this, Hongyu comforted Wang Xifeng again: "Auntie and his family are just old friends, this matter can't implicate us, auntie just rest assured." The Wang family has not been in close contact with them over the years, and we don't give a gift on the New Year's Day, so we can't get offended. ”

Wang Xifeng sighed: "I know that our family will not be implicated, then the Zhen family and my family are only old friends of the previous generation, and in my generation, I have never even seen anyone from his family." But my aunt and Mrs. Zhen are handkerchiefs, and they often have contact with the Zhen family, and Mrs. Fang Cai still asked, presumably she also thought of this.

"I'm not afraid of anything else, I'm afraid that my aunt will be calculated and used as a gun."
