177 In-laws help you

Huining Bo Shizi has been a careless person all his life, so that he has been stumbling for half his life, and he has no ability and no achievements. Fortunately, he married a shrewd wife and helped him put the house in order, because he basically didn't argue with his wife, anyway, in the end, it was always his wife who worried about things.

Mrs. Peng looked at her husband's side face, glanced at him tiredly, thought for a while, and said, "Mingzhu doesn't have to be able to marry, but it depends on how to marry." Anyway, Brother Kang is not very old, and it is their Du family who is anxious. ”

"And what do you want?" Huining Boshizi took a sip of tea and asked angrily.

"Let the Du family come forward to tell us about this matter. Doesn't his family have two Xuanhe in-laws, and if there is something in our house in the future, the Du family will have to help diligently. ”

"I can't say this, you have to say it yourself." Huining Bo Shizi refused.

"I wasn't going to work for you." Mrs. Peng said coldly. After she finished speaking, she ordered someone to come in and wait for a change of clothes, and Huining Boshi sat in the inner room for a quarter of an hour, and then went out with his legs raised.

After a meal, Mrs. Peng had already arrived at the gate of Du's Mansion in a carriage. When the eldest lady heard the little maid come to pass the word, she felt a little surprised, could it be that something happened to her mother at home?

She hurriedly led someone to the Hanging Flower Gate, and saw that Mrs. Peng's face was normal, and even with a light smile, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"How can my sister-in-law have leisure today?" The eldest lady said mockingly.

Mrs. Peng knew that her sister-in-law was annoyed by Du Mingzhu's marriage, and she didn't plan to meet her in general, so she just pretended not to understand and smiled: "Today, the family made some horseshoe cakes and crystal cakes, and my mother and I both ate them and thought it was good, so I thought I would send some for you to taste, and then by the way, see what Mingzhu is doing these days." ”

What can be done? Do you have to see her cry at home every day to be happy?

The eldest lady motioned to the maid to take the food box, and then instructed: "Go and send some to the old lady and the third girl's house, which is also her aunt's heart." ”

Mrs. Peng smiled and said, "I brought a lot, don't you send it to Aunt Zhang, the aunt and the fifth girl in the second room?" ”

The eldest lady turned her head to look at Mrs. Peng, and felt very strange. This sister-in-law has always been arrogant when she comes to the house, except for the time when she was her daughter-in-law with Du Mingxin, how could she have ever cared about other people in this house?

The eldest lady retracted her gaze and scolded the little girl: "Deaf or dumb?" Didn't you hear what my uncle said? Why don't you hurry up and deliver it? ”

The little girl took the food box and left in a panic.

After meeting the old lady Du, the eldest lady invited Mrs. Peng to the banquet room in her main room.

"What is the matter with my sister-in-law's visit today?" The eldest lady asked straight to the point.

Mrs. Peng took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "We Mingren don't say dark words, I'll just say it." A while ago, my mother mentioned to me that you intended to marry Mingzhu back home, and the reason why I haven't spit out is that I have my own concerns in my heart. ”

"Brother Kang did well in the exam this time, and he went to the spring of the coming year in one go. He is not yet eighteen this year, and he is not too old, so I originally thought that he should focus on studying, and it is not too late to wait until he is admitted to the Jinshi. ”

"For fear of him being distracted, I didn't even dare to let anyone go in his house, and my mother told me to block it back after saying it a few times. But although I have this plan for Kang Ge'er, Mingzhu's age is also there. I thought about it for a while, and I felt that I couldn't lose the pearl for Brother Kang. Hengzhu is still more than two years away from Chunqiu, Mingzhu is a sensible person, married to the family, and she takes care of Brother Kang, I am also relieved. ”

After listening to her big words, the eldest lady rejoiced in her heart. As soon as her mind moved, she had a smile on her face, and was looked at by Mrs. Peng.

But the reserve on the face always has to pretend, the eldest lady straightened her face and said: "I still think that my sister-in-law is not a pearl." Although our pearl is not young, it is not that no one wants it. If it weren't for the fact that Brother Kang had always treated Mingzhu well, when I came home that day, because Mingzhu was depressed, the two of them still talked in the garden behind for a long time, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to think about it. ”

When Mrs. Peng heard this, she was very unimpressed. If your daughter can't get married, she can't get married, and she pulled my son and said what do you do in the back garden when the two of you meet?

However, Mrs. Peng didn't bother to bother with her, so she just smiled and said, "That's why I'm too worried." So you think this matter is decided? After two days to find an auspicious day, I will ask your brother to bring Brother Kang'er's Gengti to the door to propose. ”

The eldest lady was full of joy and said two "good" words in a row.

As soon as Mrs. Peng changed her words, she brought up the real meaning: "...... That Zhuangzi is what I am going to leave to Kang Ge'er, but if it is just such a toss, who knows if it will be smoothly handed over to Kang Ge'er in the end? ”

The eldest lady was also a little anxious when she heard this, the dowry she had saved for Du Mingzhu over the years had been tossed and turned in the past two years, and it was much less. If there is no more things for the little couple here in the Bofu, how can Sister Zhu'er have a difficult life in the future?

"It's a real nuisance!" The eldest lady said worriedly, "Did the elder brother go outside and inquire carefully?" ”

"Why didn't you ask!" Mrs. Peng said, "It's just that I inquired about the possibility of Bofu, so I'm so anxious!" If only there was someone who could speak in front of the household department or the grandson of the head of the Anguo Mansion. ”

The words were so obvious that if the eldest lady couldn't hear them again, Mrs. Peng would suspect that she was deliberately pretending to be stupid.

Fortunately, the eldest lady woke up. She thought about it carefully and felt a little embarrassed. The matter of the household department is naturally to go to Li He. But Li He doesn't even sell much of the old man's face, so what can she do as a woman in the house?

The best thing is to go to Du Mingjing and ask her to beg Mrs. Li, and then Mrs. Li will persuade Li He. But Du Mingjing heard that it was his mother's business, and if it wasn't bad, it would be good, where would he be willing to help?

"This matter, this matter...... the eldest lady muttered a few sentences, looking at Mrs. Peng with an expectant face, not knowing what to say.

"If Li Ge's hometown can't get through, isn't there still Sister Xin'er's side?" Mrs. Peng knew that the eldest lady was ill, and originally thought that the eldest lady would not be able to do it, so she could always call the eldest lady to talk about it, but now it seems that this way is estimated to be impossible.

"Sister Xin'er, she took Brother Kun to Zhuangzi on the jade mountain outside the city to escape the summer these days." The eldest lady said.

"The rain is so heavy this year, and the capital is not hot at all, what kind of heat is she going to do?" Mrs. Peng said curiously.

"I heard that there were too many people begging King Jin to do something, and she couldn't resist it, so she simply went out of the city to hide Qingjing." There was a hint of envy in the eldest lady's words.
