As soon as Lu Man walked to the door of the weeping flowers, he met the eldest lady, the second lady, the third lady, and the eldest grandmother and mother and son who came to greet him in a sedan chair.
The eldest lady said, "Zhan Wei's daughter-in-law, how is the horse master?" ”
Lu Man said, "It's better." I just gave him an injection and medicine, and I'm asleep. Grandmother is a little uneasy, and is resting on the bed, so you better not disturb her. ”
In this family, except for the eldest lady, everyone hopes that the old lady can live a long life. So after listening to Lu Man's words, the three of them hurriedly said goodbye.
The eldest lady watched Lu Man get into the sedan chair and walked away, before she snorted coldly, "A concubine and daughter-in-law have been separated, and they can't be on the table in other mansions at all." Look at her attitude, pointing at us elders, and going to the sky. ”
The third lady said, "She is a doctor, maybe her mother-in-law is not in good health, and she really can't be disturbed." ”
If it was usual, the third lady was easily unwilling to offend the eldest lady. But as soon as she heard that the eldest princess's health was not good again, she was in a particularly bad mood.
Reluctance is one thing. The son will get married next month, and if the eldest princess is seriously ill, there will be no joy in the family. If the eldest princess dies unfortunately, the son will not even be able to marry. Besides, the man is trying to find a way to be promoted, and his son didn't even get into the exam last autumn, and he wants to find a job after reading Guozijian, if the eldest princess can live a few more years, the matter of father and son will be easy to do. Also, the old horse is not sober, and there is no eldest princess in this family to shake, and some are chaotic......
Thinking of these troubles, the third lady sighed heavily and hurried forward.
Seeing the back of the third lady, the eldest lady snorted coldly and said to the eldest grandmother, "See, that concubine and daughter-in-law took the hearts of the eldest princess and the old concubine, and even the third room thought about her." Hmph, squeeze aside the positive part, and only this kind of thing will happen in our house. ”
The eldest grandmother is also afraid that the eldest princess will really have three long and two short, and the sky of this family will fall.
She only pulled the corners of her mouth with a "hmm" and didn't answer.
The eldest lady felt bored, so she had to go to the main room.
Lu Man returned to Donghui Courtyard, and as soon as he entered the upper room, he heard Xiao Yue'er's loud voice of "ah, ah". She was happy to hear her mother's footsteps.
Lu Man pursed his lips and laughed, that little chick was so cunning that she could distinguish the footsteps of her family at such a young age. The voice of the little angel dispelled all the gloom in her heart, she cleaned her hands in the copper basin, went into the house and picked up her daughter on the kang, and kissed her the face twice.
Xiao Yue'er giggled, and also hugged her mother's neck and kissed her back a few times.
Lu Man asked He Shidao, "Cheng'er hasn't come back from Tongrentang yet?" ”
He looked at the rain outside the window and said, "No." He smiled again, "I heard that now your Uncle Li has specially invited a cook to cook and tidy up the housework for him, and his life will be better in the future." I asked Cheng'er to bring him some seafood and a black chicken today......"
Lu Man glanced at He's family, she cared about Shopkeeper Li very much, but it was all on the grounds that her senior sister cared about her junior brother. Lu Man didn't want to persuade her too much, but he very much hoped that she could marry Shopkeeper Li before Lu Fangrong came back, so as to save the annoyance of the phoenix man. If he really coaxed the stupid He Shi over, it would be dead.
He smiled again, "There is another family that has come to say goodbye to Cheng'er." My mother thinks this is good, my father is the secretary of the country, and I heard that my uncle is still a fourth-grade official......"
Now, people often come to talk to He Cheng. Most of them are merchants, as well as people in the apricot forest world, small officials' homes, and side branches of large families.
Lu Man doesn't want He Cheng to find a daughter-in-law now, he is only fifteen years old, and he has not yet become famous, so the person he is looking for at this time will not be very good. Just like today's family, my father and uncle are both officials, why can I look at He Cheng, a criminal minister? It's nothing more than fancy the eldest princess's potential and Jiang Zhanwei's future, not to mention He Cheng's reliance, maybe there are worse things. If they can climb the Eldest Princess's Mansion through He Cheng, they will also use He Cheng to climb those inappropriate people's homes.
Lu Man hopes that He Cheng will learn more skills and find a daughter-in-law after he has gained some fame in the apricot forest world. She has already told Grandma Xie that in two years, if there is a good girl in the side branch of the Xie family, she will help pull the strings. If the Xie family doesn't have it, see if there are any other families. There is a strong master to rely on, and the head of the family is upright, this kind of family is the best choice for He Cheng's marriage.
She told He Cheng what she thought, and He Cheng also agreed, and he didn't want to say goodbye now.
Lu Man said, "Mother, Cheng'er is still young, his family affairs should wait." ”
Ho has become accustomed to obeying his daughter and son. Although I felt that this family business was good, and He Cheng was not small, but when he saw that his daughter did not agree, he also stopped thinking.
He Cheng came back in the evening.
Lu Man called He Cheng into the house and whispered that she wanted to meet Miss Liu Si in private and see her bag. said that he met a patient who seemed to have been poisoned by the suspicion, but he was not sure.
He Chengdao, "Every Friday and every ten, the merchants will go to the backstreet to sell things around the time of Shen. Xiaoxi occasionally comes out to buy something, and I let Bai Zhi watch it quietly. ”
Lu Man nodded, and he had to wait. Today, April 18, the day after tomorrow is twenty, let's see if Xiaoxi will come out.
After dinner, the masters of the house over there gathered in front of the eldest princess's bed to serve the sick, and even Jiang Zhen, the third girl of Marquis Jiang's two-month-old concubine, was carried away by the nurse.
Jiang Zhen was born in February this year, a very beautiful little girl. Jiang Hou Ye is a daughter, he likes it very much, and he loves it like a treasure, so he took the name Jiang Zhen.
The eldest lady was angry when she saw the baby girl. The second master named his concubine "guilty" at the beginning, but Jiang Hou Ye named his concubine Jiang Zhen. No matter how precious she is, can she be more precious than her son-in-law? Since the little woman gave birth, she has become more and more rampant, and she is so angry that the eldest lady is about to crush her teeth.
She hated the eldest princess in her heart. If he had the power in his hands, he would have killed the mother and daughter long ago. But now she can't manage anything but her own yard. Moreover, the eldest son not only did not help, but also repeatedly told her not to touch the mother and daughter, and said that there was another way to clean them up.
There is also the stupid woman of the Han family, who only knows how to tie up the eldest princess, and does not take herself as a mother-in-law in her eyes at all.
Thinking again, only if my mother's family is strong, my waist is hard. I hope that the prince can ascend to the throne as soon as possible, his cousin has become the queen mother, and his niece has become a concubine, and he will definitely be the queen in the future, see who dares to ignore himself......
The eldest princess saw a large number of children and grandchildren, and said that there were too many people and she was upset, so she only left the prince Jiang Zhanju to serve in her house. He also said that in the near future, everyone should not go to save her morning and dusk, just the three sons and the eldest grandson to accompany the old couple to have a meal at night.
When Jiang Houye saw that his mother favored his son, he was still happy in his heart, and retreated with everyone.
