Ruan Qiyi was depressed for two or three days, returned to the mansion in the evening, instructed Wen to take a pot of wine, took a cup to Li Dong, poured half a cup for her, filled it himself, drank two glasses in a row, and motioned to Li Dong, "The wine is good, you can taste it too." ”

"Bad luck?" Li Dong didn't drink, he only picked up the pot and filled it with wine for Ruan Qiqi.

"Yes, it's good." Ruan Qiqi took a sip of wine, "Ah Dong, you say, how about I ask for a foreign appointment?" Where do you want to go? ”

"With you, anywhere." Li Dong pursed his lips and smiled.

"I love to hear what you say." Ruan Qiqi laughed, "My family's Ah Dong is very good at talking. ”

"It's the truth." Li Dong had a few resentments.

"I like to hear this sentence even more." Ruan Seventeen chuckled, raised his head and drank a glass of wine, and motioned to Li Dong to fill it up for him again, "The former Jiang Yanshi came back, no one arrived in the capital, the matter arrived first, he handed over a bunch of impeachment folds, each by one, alas, I really don't want to be in this troubled water, let's still hide far away." ”

"Hmm." Li Dong responded calmly, where he goes, where she follows, as for where he goes, she follows him.

"You say, what would that sister of yours say if she knew we were going to take up a foreign assignment?" Ruan Qiqi asked with a bit of temptation.

Li Dong gave him a strange look, "What can Ah Xia say?" What can Asha say about the foreign appointment? ”

"I mean......" Ruan Qiqi paused before he finished speaking, and put the cup in his hand on the table, "Let's be honest, I can't talk to my daughter-in-law in the clouds, not to mention, my daughter-in-law is a little stupid." ”

"Hey, how do you talk!" Li Dong stretched out his hand and patted Ruan Seventeen.

"Okay, okay, I said it wrong, you're not stupid, you're just a little silly." Ruan Qiqi laughed while admitting his mistake, "It's honest, let's get down to business, Ah Dong, let me tell you, that sister of yours, the ghost is amazing, I'm praising her, it's really a compliment!" Not only the ghosts, I don't know if she can do anything, anyway, it's going to be bad, one bad is the other, I always feel that we have to be outside, and she has to nod, otherwise, many things will have to be bad in her hands......"

"How can you say that, Asha?" Li Dong was really a little angry, "You don't have anything to do outside, are we in the capital or where are we, how can Ah Xia care about us?" Can Asha manage it? Don't drink it, you've got too much to drink. Li Dong reached out and took the wine glass in front of Ruan Qiqi.

"It's my fault, it's my fault, don't take it, you don't know my amount yet? There is not much wine here, alas...... "Ruan Qiqi sighed again and again, "Ah Dong, I don't want to be in the capital, because, this is a bad thing in the capital, everything is no small matter, my temper, you know a little, I see it, I don't care, it's uncomfortable, take care of it, it's a big deal, I'm a family now, alas." ”

"You don't have to worry about me all the time." Li Dong looked at Ruan Seventeen, "When I was at home, I often heard the eldest aunt talk about her and the uncle's youth, the eldest aunt said that she was often scared and couldn't sleep, and the uncle's career was very smooth, and the eldest aunt said that she didn't really understand until now, as long as the head didn't hit the ground, it was no big deal, and you had to wait for the knife to fall to count it."

Daddy has always been a teacher, and later made a county order, no major events, since I can remember, Auntie is always frightened, not only because of Mama Zhong, there are other things every year, there is a year of famine, Niang's Zhuangzi grains have no harvest, no account, and take the silver out to buy seeds to survive the famine year, Niang and Mama Hong are anxious to sleep, and once, Daddy was beaten by the prefect's small ya, ......"

Li Dong lowered his eyelids, "Fifth brother often says that I want to be open, except for life and death, there is no big matter, otherwise, no matter what day, I can scare myself to death, I think what the fifth brother said is right." ”

Ruan Qiqi glared at Li Dong for a while, and then snorted, "That's the ...... Also, I'm not as good as you...... I mean, it's not as natural as you, what you say is a bit of my mother's taste, my mother often says: There is always a hurdle that can't be passed, while the hurdle can still be passed now, hurry up and be happy, catch up with Ming'er can't get over, make steamed bun stuffing, then it's really not fun. ”

Li Dong couldn't stop laughing when she heard it, and she sighed as much as she was curious about this mother-in-law who had never met before.

From the time she got married to the present, her mother-in-law, has sent people to the capital almost every day to send all kinds of things, including several large boxes of children's clothes and toys.

"Then I'm going to have to be busy for a while. If there is no major event except life and death, then our family, the two of us, will definitely be no major event. By the way, there's nothing at home that makes you angry, right? ”

"There are a few things that are annoying, but there are no things that are angry." Li Dong said with a smile.

"That's good, we're a big family, we can't stop worrying about it, this, it's annoying to think about it. Let me tell you, the directors don't have to be too thoughtful, and they can't take care of everything in everything, just make a big difference. Also, don't worry, things are slow and round, if you don't take care of things for a while, let them go, and it will be proper after a while, if they don't do it properly, then put it for a while. ”

Li Dong laughed out loud when he heard this, "I know how to be a director, I can't use your method, it's really harmful." ”

Ruan Qiqi laughed, "Next time you try again, it will definitely work." ”

Winter Solstice New Year, this year's two great victories in the north and south, Haiqing Heyan, although there is nothing in the palace to add a child to the wedding and the like, but this year's winter solstice, or according to the year of the big gift, or according to the most lively and festive specifications, to celebrate this year's winter solstice.

The palace was presided over by Empress Jiang as usual, and outside, since Jiang Yanshi returned, it was transferred from the hands of Zheng Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites to Jiang Yanshi.

However, Mrs. Yan did not have the extra energy to pay attention to the excitement of this year's winter solstice.

Just entered November, Li Wensong's daughter-in-law Yao Si's grandmother was diagnosed with pregnancy, on the ninth day of the first month, Tang Jiarui Shunshun gave birth to Li Wenshan's eldest son Li Zhangheng, the next day after the baptism, Li Wenlin's daughter-in-law Shen San's grandmother was diagnosed with pregnancy again, this year's Yongning Bofu this year, and it is very different from previous years, fortunately, Li Wennan, Li Wenmei and Li Xia hurriedly went to the top and followed Mrs. Yan to take care of the house.

Four or five days before the winter solstice, the Empress Dowager Jin ordered people to go to the Daxiangguo Temple to do ten days of prayer and blessing rituals, and Mrs. Yan inquired about the days when Mrs. Miao and Mrs. Zhao went to the Dharma to listen to the scriptures, and took Li Wenmei to the Daxiangguo Temple to listen to the scriptures.

When the sun fell, the old ladies and ladies who listened to the scriptures in the Daxiangguo Temple were almost gone, and Mrs. Miao and Mrs. Zhao entered the Daxiangguo Temple.

Mrs. Yan and Li Wenmei arrived not early, a quarter of an hour or two earlier than Mrs. Miao and Mrs. Zhao, and came out of the hall with incense, and met them head-on.

"Mrs. is well, old lady is good, this is just here?" Mrs. Yan hurriedly took a few steps to greet her and greeted her affectionately, "I just arrived, and I thought it was so late." ”

Mrs. Miao was busy returning the courtesy, "Mrs. is a busy person, there have been many happy events in your mansion for a while, congratulations to Mrs." ”

"Isn't it just for these happy events, no matter how busy I am, I think, I also get here to listen to the scriptures, and get the blessing of the queen mother, just right, let's have a companion, the eighth sister comes over, this is my eighth sister, our second wife has always been sick for more than a year, and her energy is low, so I had to take this child to me to teach, fortunately, the eighth sister is very sensible and smart, this time, it is a loss to her, so she can be busy."

Mrs. Yan pulled Li Wenmei and praised her at length, Mrs. Miao felt a strange and unbelievable feeling in her heart, and subconsciously looked at her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhao, who was looking at her, and the two of them immediately flashed away as soon as their eyes met.

Old Madam Zhao stepped forward, took Li Wenmei's hand, and looked carefully, "This kid has a really good face, at first glance, he is a blessed person, his eyebrows are broad, and his heart must be broad and kind, the girl in your house is really better than the other." ”

As Mrs. Zhao spoke, she wiped off a purple Qi Donglai wide bracelet on her wrist, and took Li Wenmei's hand and put it on her wrist, "This bracelet was rewarded by Mrs. Tai the year I returned home, and the eighth sister wore it for fun, don't dislike it." ”

The bracelet was thick and simple, purple and transparent, moist and crystalline, and it was extremely valuable at first glance, Li Wenmei hurriedly looked at Mrs. Yan, this meeting gift was too expensive.

Mrs. Yan smiled with great joy, "The old lady loves you so much, this is your blessing." ”

Li Wenmei let go of the bracelet with Mrs. Zhao and bowed her knees deeply to thank her.

Mrs. Yan held Mrs. Miao, and Mrs. Zhao pulled Li Wenmei, each talking, went to the main hall to listen to the scriptures for a while, got up and went to the back quiet room to drink tea and rest.

The back of Daxiangguo Temple was quiet and empty, Mrs. Yan and Mrs. Miao simply sat down on the stone bench in the courtyard, Mrs. Yan smiled: "It is said that Mrs. Tai was like a god when she was young, and most of the credit of General Weiyuan is yours. ”

Mrs. Miao's expression was slightly gloomy, and she sighed lowly, "Mrs. doesn't dislike it, but I really don't dare to speak, our family ......" Mrs. Miao sighed deeply,

"Mrs. Tai is a real person, so let's talk openly. Originally, I didn't want to take care of the affairs of the second room in our house, but Ba Nizi is really rare, and then, they have six little brothers, like siblings, between sisters, they are also siblings, my girl, and our ninth sister, pestering me all day long, last month, I moved the eighth sister out and taught by my side. ”

Mrs. Yan talked to Mrs. Miao about family life, and Mrs. Miao listened attentively and was very attentive.

"I didn't pay attention to those things in your house before, it was our fifth brother, that is, a while ago, after the triumphant return of the prince, the fifth brother only knew, and told me, I admired Mrs. Tai very much, and it was because of this that I paid attention to Brother An. You Brother An, like our eighth sister, are all good children who are just as hard-working and lucky, and I just got started. ”

Talking to Mrs. Miao, Mrs. Yan was simply direct.

Mrs. Miao was silent for a moment, and met Mrs. Yan's gaze, "Madame, don't blame, I have to think about this matter, it's not that I look down on ......"

"I know, the more such a child, the more cautious the family affairs must be, I wait for Mrs. Tai's letter, this family affair is a trivial matter, Mrs. Tai is such a heroine, I admire it in my heart. On the day of the full moon of our fifth brother's child, I will post to Mrs. Tai and the old lady, but I must enjoy it. ”

Mrs. Yan stood up with a smile, Mrs. Miao stood up with her, and the two talked and laughed along the way, went out of Daxiangguo Temple, and went back separately.
