Du Mingjing grew up in the shadow of Du Mingzhu, and the best thing is to swallow his anger. However, Du Mingyan is also a concubine, and her father doesn't even have an official body, so how can Du Mingjing be convinced?
After a while, she suddenly laughed loudly: "Sister Yan, you can't write, right?" Why did I take the pen for a long time, and the paper was painted three or two, but I didn't write a pair? ”
As he spoke, everyone looked at Du Mingyan.
Du Mingyan was very annoyed, so she wrote a pair of Spring Festival couplets with a brush, threw them on Du Mingjing's face, and said angrily: "Open your little eyes and take a good look!" Isn't that a word? ”
The Spring Festival couplets fell, and the scribbled and messy handwriting came into the eyes of everyone, and the atmosphere was very embarrassing for a while.
Tao Huan couldn't help it, laughed out loud, and said, "Cousin Peng said that Cousin Xin is a family student, and I think Cousin Yan is...... The second uncle has not been able to get into the Jinshi for so many years, so he can teach a talent like Cousin Yan. ”
Du Kai saw that he was carrying the second uncle in his mouth, and hurriedly scolded: "Tao Huan! Don't be presumptuous! Are you talking about the elders casually? ”
Tao Huan threw the pen, with an expression of "Lao Tzu won't play with you anymore", threw his sleeves and went out.

In the evening, Du Mingxin returned to his courtyard, and after dinner, Chuncao stepped forward and replied: "This afternoon, the slave maid has already gone to Ermen to inquire, and the little maids over there have said that the queen mother's phoenix has passed the Zhending Mansion, and the emperor will go out of the city to pick it up in the next two days." ”
Du Mingxin nodded and said, "The two families are still arguing here, and I'm afraid I won't be able to settle down before my uncle comes to the house." ”
Xia Ye hesitated and said, "It's hard to say...... The slave went to the kitchen to urge food, and heard the inside say that she was going to rush to work tonight, and the prince of Ning Bo would come tomorrow. ”
Du Ming's heart jumped, and he asked, "Are you here to send Geng posts?" ”
Xia Ye turned his head to look at Mama Cui, Mama Cui nodded and said, "Eighty percent is like this." ”
She got up and sat down beside Du Mingxin, and asked with concern, "Girl, what do you think of Young Master Peng?" ”
Du Mingxin smiled: "What? Mama doesn't remember to be Anhou? ”
Cui Mama smiled bitterly: "If the door is good, the slave and maid have to do it with their lives." But I've been asking someone these days, so I'd better forget it...... Cheng Anhou has a bad reputation, and the killing is heavy, you married him, aren't you a sheep in the mouth of a tiger? ”
"Young Master Peng has a good temper, and I think I also care about you. Although they are trying to tie up with Uncle over there, it is precisely because of this that they dare not despise you! ”
Peng Kang...... Thinking of the young man's serious eyes when he looked at him, Du Mingxin did not doubt that marrying him would always have a few years of good life.
It can be calculated and calculated, and the heart returns to the heart. Midnight dream, she returned to the Zhuangzi at the foot of Songshan countless times, under the pretext of going to worship the Buddha, and looked for Rusheng in the huge Shaolin Temple one hall after another...... Wouldn't it be nice if you could just watch him for the rest of your life, and often glance at him and say a few words?
Du Mingxin lowered his eyelids and said faintly: "But I don't like Peng Kang." ”
"This ......" Mama Cui was speechless, how can you say what you like or dislike when you get married?
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stiff, Chuncao hurriedly smiled and said, "The slave maid still encountered something today...... The eldest girl's girl, Gui'er, was also touching back and forth at the second gate, and when she saw me passing, she ran away. I asked the mother-in-law who was guarding the door, and they said that Gui'er had come over often in the past two days, and a little girl had brought something to her the other day. When asked, she said that she had asked someone to buy the flower cream, but it didn't look like ......."
Gui'er, Du Mingyan...... Thinking of Du Mingyan's gaffe when she wrote the Spring Festival couplets today, Du Mingxin felt that something was wrong. "You have been keeping an eye on this matter for me in the past few days, so you will inquire about your uncle and find out what is going on over there on Du Mingyan's side."
Chuncao agreed, and there was nothing to say overnight.
On the second day, when Du Mingxin went to greet Mrs. Du, Mrs. Peng had already arrived. praised Du Ming's heart again, but Du Min didn't say anything except for his unsightly face. Could it be that what agreement was reached with the Peng family and the eldest master? Du Mingxin only cared about dealing with Mrs. Peng, and he had no time to think about these things.
After a while, Peng Kang came in with a red face to bid farewell to Mrs. Du, but she didn't get a good face, and Peng Kang didn't panic.
Before leaving, Peng Kang glanced at Du Mingxin, and saw that she also got up to say goodbye, a happy smile bloomed on his face, but the roots of his ears were red.
After sending off the Peng family, the eldest master and the second master came in to report to Mrs. Du. Lu could roughly guess what they were going to say, so he got up and took the juniors out.
Du Mingxin walked to the door, as if he suddenly remembered something, and turned back to the second master and said, "Father, the uncle of the Shen family is escorting the Queen Mother, and she is about to arrive in the capital." Shouldn't we also be ready to invite our uncle to come to the house and talk about our kinship over the years? ”
Hearing this, the eldest master's brows furrowed tightly, and the second master asked in surprise, "Uncle Shen?" The Shen family was wiped out back then, where did the uncle come from? ”
"Now the emperor is next to Xingguo Gong, surnamed Shen Mingyao, is his mother's seventh brother. If the father does not believe, send someone out and ask for it. Du Mingxin said slowly, looking at the changing expressions on the faces of the eldest lord and the eldest lady, he pointed at them and smiled, "Or you can ask the eldest uncle and aunt, I think the two elders know better." ”
The second master turned his head to look at his brother and sister-in-law, and when he saw the expressions on their faces, even if he was confused, he saw some clues, and he couldn't help but be angry.
"Big brother, what's going on? Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing first? The second old man said angrily, "You urged me to hurry up and settle the marriage between Sister Xin and Peng Kang, does it also have something to do with this?" ”
"You go out first." The eldest man said to the juniors in a deep voice.
The second old man said angrily: "Don't go!" If you want to say it, make it clear in front of the whole family! Why are you and your sister-in-law hiding it from me like this! ”
"Don't make a fuss!" The eldest man's temper also came up, "Sister Zhu, you all get out of here!" ”
Du Ming saw that his goal had been achieved, so he opened the curtain and walked out one by one, but secretly left Chuncao to go around to the back of the main room to eavesdrop.
"Do you think that Shen Yao is back and in charge of the army, so you will have a good life?" The eldest lord squinted at the second lord and asked angrily.
The second master stalked his head and looked like he took it for granted.
The eldest lord glanced at the people in the room, lowered his voice and said angrily: "How did the Shen family die back then, you know best in your own heart!" ”
The second old man felt a thrill in his heart, and quickly calmed down again, and said: "Her mother's house was raided and wiped out, and she had the will to die in her heart, so she committed suicide, and this can also be relied on me?" ”
"You!" The old man said angrily, "Before she hanged herself, who said or did something in front of her?" Why did it take so long to hang on the beams of the house before anyone found out? Who has taken care of her dowry all these years? How did you and that Aunt Liu treat your sister harshly? Back then, although Sister Xin is still young, don't forget, there is a Cui Mama and that Aunt Geng! You think everyone is as confused and forgetful as you are! ”
