The current situation of the Ji family and the Su family belongs to half a catty to eight taels, and neither is much better than the other.

In this case, Ji Zifu was worried that he would not look down on him with Su Shaoling, which showed that he still cared about this wife very much.

Song Yixiao thought that he understood the cousin's thoughts, and comforted him with kind words, and said simply: "Why is my cousin so bothered? There is a way to be a no-nonsense person under the fame, and the cousin-in-law is recognized as a virtuous and courteous person recognized by the nobles of the imperial capital, how can she look down on her husband? Moreover, my cousin is handsome and straightforward, and he is also a rare good man, but the world is ignorant, and my cousin disdains to argue, which makes people misunderstand my cousin. In the future, my cousin-in-law and my cousin have been getting along for a long time, and there is a way to know the horsepower, and I will see people's hearts for a long time, so I naturally understand my cousin's goodness. ”

Ji Zifu was really in no mood to talk to the couple when he heard this, so he responded a few words indiscriminately, and then excused himself to go back to the room to calm down and leave.

When he reappeared, he had already changed into auspicious clothes and was ready to go to the Su family to greet him in person - this time he was not privately receiving Jian Xubai and Song Yixiao alone, but under the gaze of the guests, he did not show any more gloomy and unhappy looks, although he was not ecstatic, but the corners of his lips were slightly hooked, and he looked very expectant and happy.

Although most of the guests are not very optimistic about the future of the Ji and Su families, the queen mother and the emperor are still there, and everyone is afraid of provoking the two of them, so they all look happy.

Tacitly, the wedding was held smoothly.

Song Yixiao's pregnancy is serious, and she feels tired at the end of the day, and when she arrives at the haunted cave room, she really feels unbearable, so she stands in the crowd for a while, and then quits on the grounds of not disturbing the bride.

Rao is like this, when she returned to the Yanguo Mansion, she was so tired that she didn't want to say more.

Jian Xubai felt distressed in his eyes, and couldn't help but say: "Next, you have a good rest for two days, and don't go to the fifth sister's birthday, right?" You can't be tired right now. ”

"How does this work?" Song Yixiao had already closed her eyes to recuperate, but her eyes suddenly widened when she heard this, and she said, "The fifth sister will be out of the cabinet next year, this is the last time she will spend her birthday at her mother's house before she leaves the cabinet, how can I not go?" ”

Glancing at her husband again, she lowered her voice and said, "Have you forgotten what happened on her birthday last year?" No one can snub the fifth sister! ”

Jian Xubai thought about the scene of looking for people all over the city in the lunar month last year, and also felt a headache, sat on the edge of the couch and rubbed her legs, and sighed: "Either you pretend to be uncomfortable and let her speak for yourself?" That girl should always have this sensible thing. ”

Even if Nie Wuying wasn't so sensible, the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom would remind her. After all, this princess Zhun Su will still count on her brother and sister-in-law to pull a little bit in the future!

However, Song Yixiao thinks that although it is already the end of November, there is still half a month until Nie Wuying's birthday, and she may not be able to recover, if she can support it by then, she does not need to sweep away her sister-in-law's interest.

Besides, she still wants to see Gu Tongxu's performance at the banquet!

However, on the fifteenth day of the lunar month, she didn't make it - originally. After Yun Gu's recuperation, he had recovered his spirit at the seventh and eighth days of the lunar month, but he didn't think that something happened to Zhuangzi after that, and the relevant stewards insisted on their own words, and they quarreled with Song Yixiao for several days.

Song Yi smiled and worried, but when he saw red, he was immediately frightened left and right, not only did he quickly report to Jian Xubai, who was in the yamen, but even the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom got the letter!

After receiving the notice, the mother and son immediately set off to rush over, not caring about dealing with the housekeepers who caused trouble, and hurriedly asked Aunt Yun about the specific situation, although Aunt Yun said that it didn't matter, and it would be fine to lie down for two days, but the eldest princess and Jian Xubai were not at ease - the eldest princess said on the spot that Nie Wuying's birthday banquet, and Song Yixiao would never participate!

"Anyway, your sister-in-law has always been good, don't you hurt her if you don't congratulate her on her birthday?" The eldest princess said, "Let's talk about the sex of the dancing cherry blossoms. Son, you still don't know? If you hurt your body in order to congratulate her, she will be haunted for the rest of her life! ”

Jian Xubai didn't want his wife to work hard, so he hurriedly said: "What my mother said is that the fifth sister has always been considerate and understanding, don't embarrass her!" ”

Both of them said so, and Song Yixiao was also worried about the child, so she symbolically excused herself and agreed.

After the eldest princess returned home, she told the two righteous daughters about it, and Pei Yourui and Nie Wuying came to visit her in person the next day, comforting her in every possible way not to have any thoughts about not being able to participate in Nie Wuying's birthday - others received news one after another, and they also came to visit, including the newlywed Su Shaoling.

The Su family has no direct relationship with the Yanguo Mansion, but Ji Zifu and Jian Xubai are cousins, and she is the cousin-in-law of Jian Xubai and his wife, so it is natural for her to come to visit now.

Su Shaoling, a first-time wife, looks little different from before marriage, she is still gentle and generous, and her eyebrows are quiet and dignified, which makes people wonder whether she is satisfied with her married life.

However, when Xie Yiren came over, he privately revealed: "It is said that the prince of Fuyang and the prince of the world respect each other like guests. ”

"How do you know?" Song Yixiao asked curiously.

Although it is said that thinking of the Queen Mother and Emperor Xianjia, everyone still doesn't dare to deal with the Ji family, but they will definitely not get closer, right?

Especially the Xie family has no relationship with Ji Jiayuan.

Xie Yiren said with a smile: "Two days ago, I went into the palace to ask the Queen Mother to say goodbye, and I happened to go to the Queen Mother on behalf of the people from the Princess's Mansion to reply to the Queen Mother, and I listened to it next to me." ”

Speaking of this, he looked around, saw that the room was full of henchmen of the two, and replied, "The Queen Mother was very happy when she first heard that she was respectful to each other, but after asking a few words, she realized that the person meant that the prince and his wife were too polite, but they were not like husband and wife. The Queen Mother frowned, and Aunt Yuguo comforted her for a while, saying that the prince and his wife had only met once before they got married, and they hadn't even said a few words, and the young man was also shy, and it would be fine in a few days. The Queen Mother softened her face at this time! ”

Song Yixiao didn't say anything about Ji Zifu and his wife, but asked, "What's going on in my cousin's mansion lately?" ”

Otherwise, the families and mansions in Layue couldn't be busier, especially Xie Yiren's mother-in-law, Princess Lu, who died early, as the hostess of Yipingbo's mansion, even if she didn't have children, she was busy enough, how could she suddenly run to the queen mother to say goodbye?

Xie Yiren's expression darkened when he heard this, and he sighed: "What else can it be? It's been almost a year since I entered the door, and there has been no movement yet, no, my father-in-law listened to the words of a few aunts, and personally told my husband about the heir? ”

"Yi Pingbo is too anxious, right?" Of course, Song Yixiao was facing her, and immediately said when she heard the words, "You said that it has been almost a year since you entered the door, but you don't want to think about how many things are going on this year?" Cousin Xu also changed the envoy in the middle, from the military department to the household department, and he had to start everything again, so he shared more energy in this official matter, how could he not be negligent in family affairs? Now it's the end of the year, and when the New Year begins, with the bodies of you and Cousin Xu, Yi Pingbo is still afraid that there will be no grandchildren? ”

"What!" Although Xie Yiren also hopes to have a son as soon as possible, in the end, everyone is from a beautiful background, and when he heard this, his face was still slightly red, and he sneered, "In my opinion, my father-in-law is actually not in a hurry, but the real urgency is those aunts - what nieces and nieces of their mother's family are waiting to be stuffed to their husbands!" I just want to give my husband a small amount, and I can't let those messy things into the door as they want! It's just that my father-in-law is an elder in the end, he spoke, and my husband is not easy to disobey, I think I promised my husband that I was the matchmaker of the Queen Mother, so I naturally wanted to consult the Queen Mother! ”

Song Yixiao didn't know the Queen Mother's response to this matter, and pondered whether she should ask or not.

But Xie Yiren already smiled proudly and said: "The Queen Mother said that I have not been in the door for a year, and everything is busy near the New Year, and I will talk about it after the New Year!" ”

When the Queen Mother said this, she didn't mean that Xu Xi would take a concubine after the New Year, but she euphemistically expressed her disapproval!

Song Yixiao said sincerely: "The Queen Mother is wise! ”

This has nothing to do with her friendship with Xie Yiren, but from the position of the camp of being the same wife.

A few days after that, it was Nie Wuying's birthday, and although Song Yixiao had already said that she would not go, she still sent Jin Xun to congratulate herself on this day. Of course, Jin Xun is just a subordinate, and he is not qualified to have a banquet with Nie Wuying and them, but he went over to congratulate and give gifts, sat down on the table on the next side, and left.

The next day, Jiang Muyao specially came over to report to her: "Miss Gu really went yesterday." ”

"Nothing happened yesterday, did you?" Song Yixiao raised her eyebrows.

"What can happen?" Jiang Muyao sneered and said, "The birthday of the county lord of Jinghui was held in the mansion of the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom, who would dare not be long-sighted?" However, Miss Gu took the post you gave, and her performance was remarkable, and she was very popular at first - later it was known that she would live in the Song Mansion, including the county lord of Jinghui, and many people didn't care about her anymore! ”

She took this for granted, "After all, everyone who was present yesterday was for the county lord He Jinghui, you are the county lord's sister-in-law, and you are respected by the county lord, Gu Tongxu took your post to the banquet, but he was close to the Song family, so that those of us who know how the Song family is used to you?" ”

The last sentence revealed that she was also one of the people who didn't care about Gu Tongxu yesterday.

But Song Yixiao didn't mean to be complacent at all when she heard this, but raised her eyebrows slightly: "I was lying on the couch this time, and my stepmother also sent something and took the opportunity to deliver me a message." ”

Jiang Muyao said inexplicably: "What? ”

"My stepmother's henchman, Mother Zhang, secretly told me about Jinxun around me, saying that it was Aunt Liu who took Miss Gu to live in the Song Mansion, and it was Aunt Liu who did this with my grandmother." Song Yi pursed her lips with a smile, "And Miss Gu came to visit me the day after she arrived in the imperial capital, and by the way, she brought an invitation to take away - the birthday banquet of the fifth sister, whether I go or not, the guests will naturally be towards me, so as long as you know that Miss Gu was able to go to the banquet, it was because I gave her a post, but she will live in the Song Mansion and will definitely stand up for me." ”

After all, the people who went to He Nie Wuying yesterday, such as Wei Yinlian, Jiang Muyao, Xie Yiren, etc., are basically related to Song Yixiao, and although Gu Tongxu is Gu Shao's granddaughter, Xu Yu's Qiu family is the Qiu family.

Everyone is not optimistic about the future of the Qiu family; Second, Song Yixiao grew up in the imperial capital, and even if he didn't have a deep friendship with everyone, he had one or several faces, compared to Gu Tongxu, who appeared in the imperial capital for the first time, can people's hearts not smile at Song Yi?

Jiang Muyao was shallow in the city, and she didn't react when she heard this: "Then what?" ”

"And then?" Song Yi smiled contemptuously, "Then everyone knows that the marriage of Qiu Gu was caused by the Queen Mother's mother, Gu Nian's mother, and His Majesty the Emperor shared the worries of the Queen Mother with filial piety, and personally came forward to say that the matchmaker made it happen-After Miss Gu arrived in the imperial capital, she attended the banquet for the first time, but she was given a cold reception, do you say that the Queen Mother and His Majesty the Emperor can not be held accountable?" ”

She flicked her forehead, sneered and continued, "If you investigate it like this, you will inevitably find that everything is because of offending me!" It's not the point here, the point is that my mother-in-law's grandmother took Miss Gu to live there, and she actually offended me! This properly shows that I seem to be respectful to my grandmother and her old man, but in fact I have deep resentment! ”

Glancing at Jiang Muyao, who was already stunned, "You say, how will the world look at me then?" The Queen Mother and Your Majesty, what will you do with me?! ”
