After the Lantern Festival, it rained for several days, and the continuous spring rain kept falling, and it became inconvenient to go out. When Mrs. Wei got old, she didn't like to go out more and more, and it was raining, so she would rather play finch cards with the third and second ladies in the house.

In addition to the third lady and the second lady as accompaniment, Mrs. Ping'an Hou also came over when she was free, and when she saw that they were playing lively, she made fun: "Why is the second lady, the third lady and Mama Hua accompanying you?" Is the lord of Shouning absent? ”

Mrs. Wei smiled: "Don't want her, she won't, the slow play of cards makes people irritable......"

The second lady and the third lady also laughed, and said to Mrs. Ping'an Hou: "You don't know, An An can be smart in other things, that is, only to play the finch card, no matter how many times you teach, you will always not learn, that is, you will, but also out of the unfavorable card, every time she plays the card, the old lady is anxious, simply don't want her to play ......"

Mama Hua had already stood up and gave up her seat to Mrs. Ping'anhou, and Mrs. Ping'anhou sat over with a smile, laughing while touching the cards: "Speaking of which, Ah Si learns this very quickly, but he has been very skilled in such a long time for half a month, and he will have companions in the future." ”

Old Mrs. Wei sighed, raised her eyes to look at her, and saw that Miss Xu Si didn't come, so she whispered: "Why didn't Ah Si come over today?" ”

Mrs. Ping'an Hou played a card, frowning a little sadly: "Speaking of which, I was about to tell you, it was fine, but I don't know if it was a cold on the day of the Lantern Festival, and I haven't been very comfortable these days, and I have been drinking medicine every day, but it is not good, and my nose is red." ”

But the wedding is just around the corner, after the first month, the third day of the second month is the first day, it was calculated by the husband, Mrs. Wei couldn't help frowning: "Does it matter?" Why don't you ask the old doctor to come and take a look? After all, the old doctor is an old man, and he has more experience. ”

The second lady was also a little worried: "This is not sloppy, although it is a wind cold, but it also depends on what kind of wind and cold, you have to prescribe the right medicine, or ask the old doctor to take a look, cure it early, and save it from dragging it and becoming a serious illness." ”

Mrs. Ping'an Hou was even more relieved, these people in the Wei family were very attentive and concerned about Miss Xu Si, she snorted: "It's not a big deal, take the medicine first and take a look, if it doesn't get good, I will ask someone to ask the old doctor to come over to see her, she can't come to ask for peace, and she specially asked me to annoy you." ”

"This kid is too careful." Mrs. Wei shook her head: "It's all a family, what do you care about each other?" As long as she is in good health, she is better than anything else. You tell her to take care of her, and come back when she is well. ”

Mrs. Wei really likes Miss Xu Si, this girl has a tenacity that ordinary girls don't have, like weeds on the side of the road, which can't be burned endlessly, such a girl has an opinion, but it is rare to be able to take the right path after experiencing so many things, and she has a good heart.

She thought about it for a while, and then instructed Mama Hua: "Go to the warehouse to find a few old ginseng plants, and bring them back to Mrs. Ping'an Hou when the time comes, and make up for the four girls." ”

Mrs. Ping'an Hou hurriedly stood up and thanked Miss Xu Si, and asked Mrs. Wei again: "The Lantern Festival before the previous year, it seems that the fifth master was not seen?" ”

Mrs. Wei glanced at her.

A woman in the back house, asking other people's men, this is very inappropriate behavior, in the past, Mrs. Ping'an Hou came so many times, and never asked about the five masters except for marriage.

This time, Mrs. Ping'an Hou suddenly mentioned that the fifth master was not there during the Lantern Festival, Mrs. Wei ate the card, and said lightly after making up the card: "It seems that something was delayed that day, what's the matter?" ”

The second lady and the third lady also noticed that something was wrong, and they all turned their heads to look at Mrs. Ping'anhou.

Mrs. Ping'an Hou did not panic, she played the cards first, considered for a moment, glanced at Mrs. Wei cautiously, and seemed to think about the wording for a while before saying: "It's not a big deal, it's just ...... It's just that our family Hou Ye heard that the fifth master seems to be ...... recently"

Old Mrs. Wei seemed to have realized, stopped what she was doing, looked at Mrs. Ping'an Hou seriously, and nodded for her to continue.

Mrs. Ping'an Hou did not hesitate any longer, and said directly: "I just heard that the fifth master seems to be more diligent in going to those places recently. ”

Where are they?

What are those places?

The second lady and the third lady glanced at each other, and instantly understood the meaning of Mrs. Ping'an Hou, and couldn't help but blush a little.

Old Mrs. Wei's face was still calm, she looked at the card table calmly, and asked the second and third ladies: "How often is the old five pieces of silver recently?" ”

If you want to go out to socialize, go out to spend all day drinking, you can't do it without money, relying on Wei Yangqing's idea, go to Sanyuanlou to have a few meals and go to the zenith, where is enough? I'm sure I'm going to get money from home.

And if the money is taken from home too often, it is impossible for the second lady and the third lady to be ignorant.

The second lady and the third lady couldn't help frowning, feeling that something was not good, and hesitated for a moment before looking at Mrs. Wei and shaking her head: "However, the fifth uncle hasn't been there recently.... I didn't take any extra money out of the house! ”

At the beginning, the dowry of the county lord of Changning had been sealed into the treasury, and it was ready to be given to Wei Jue's daughter-in-law at that time, even if Wei Yangqing wanted to move the silver there, it would be impossible not to go through the third lady and the second lady, if the second lady and the third lady all said no, then Wei Yangqing just had no silver, since there was no silver, could he still spend all his time outside?

Mrs. Wei's eyes sank, and she immediately glanced back at Mama Hua: "You go and call Lin Hai, in addition, see if the fifth master is in the mansion, if he is.... Well, don't alarm him yet. ”

Mrs. Ping'an Hou waved her hand a little anxiously: "Old lady, I didn't mean that..... Maybe it's a misunderstanding....."

"If it's a misunderstanding, that's even better." Mrs. Wei raised her hand to intercept her words, watched Mama Hua go out, and then said: "I really want to get married to this family business, and I have made this matter very clear to him, either he shouldn't have promised me, and if he promised me, he shouldn't have come nonsense.... If he really is so ignorant......"

Old Lady Wei snorted coldly and did not speak again.

The jade intellectuals next to him stepped forward to remove the table, helped Mrs. Wei to sit down on the couch, took the stove to cover her, and asked softly: "Old lady, do you want to invite the county lord over?" ”

It was raining, and Mrs. Wei exempted Wei An's invitation and specially told her that she didn't have to come.

But at this time, Jade knew that only Wei An's words could be listened to by Mrs. Wei better.

Old Lady Wei nodded slightly.
