Chapter 385: Qingshan (I)
"What's wrong with him!" Mrs. Gan said with a smile, "One-third of the ancestral property was sold and the sacrificial field was sold, and in the two days of the lawsuit, the income of the public middle school dropped sharply, and a part of the property was sold. I'm afraid he'll get up in the middle of the night and laugh. ”
Eleven Niang is embarrassed.
Mrs. Gan said again: "This lawsuit can be concluded like this, in the final analysis, Lanting has made a lot of efforts from it. ”
Eleven Niang was puzzled.
"Lanting is smart and clever, has a cheerful temperament, respects her husband, likes her mother-in-law, and gave birth to a son in her firstborn, so she can be regarded as a steady foothold in the Liang family." Mrs. Gan put the peeled lotus seeds in a small gold plate and handed it to Eleven Niang, "It's sweet and sweet." You taste it! ”
Eleven Niang ate one with a toothpick fork: "It's very sweet!" ”
Mrs. Gan continued the topic just now: "The Gan family is so troublesome, only two people have a hard time. One is Cao E. When the time comes, I am afraid that even the dowry will not be neatly arranged. The other is Uncle. It is inevitable that people will be regarded as immoral and incompetent. After all, they and Lanting are compatriots. Lanting came forward to ask his father-in-law to come forward, said hello to Dali Temple, and closed the case as soon as possible. ”
Eleven Niang only cares about Cao E: "That Cao E's dowry ......"
Uncle said in front of Lan Ting. He marries his sister as he marries his daughter. Mrs. Gan peeled a few more lotus seeds and put them in a small gold plate, "One hundred and twenty-four dowry, to ensure that it is full, and never let the people of the Jiang family talk about it." ”
Eleven Niang thought of the two mothers of the Jiang family: "...... Is there still a service to the front? ”
"It's still there!" Mrs. Gan laughed as she spoke, "I used to think that Cao E's temperament was gentle, and she would suffer when she encountered such a thing. Unexpectedly, although she was too square when she spoke and acted, she was also open-minded and steep-minded, which made the two mothers dare not look down on her, and gave birth to a few respects. As he spoke, he sighed softly, "My mother-in-law has a sense of contempt, my mother's family has no one to support, and I don't respect myself anymore, I'm afraid that I won't be a person inside and out." It's better to be strict and upright, and fight for the word 'respect', which is better than lowering your value and making people look down on you. ”
Eleven Niang was silent.
Before entering the door, there is no luxury hope for the future days...... It's like a flower that hasn't bloomed yet, but is withering.
There was a little sadness in the room.
Mrs. Gan changed the topic with a busy smile and asked about Sister Hui'er's exit from the cabinet: "...... I heard that the first one was carried to East Street, and this last one has not yet gone out. ”
"I've heard that, too." Eleven Niang thought of the Lin family's gongs and drums at that time, and a smile appeared on her face, "I didn't go." Sister Zhen went to get married. I deliberately served with Mother Song. Look at what it was like when Sister Hui got married. When the time comes, our sister and son will marry, and it will be almost the same. ”
Mrs. Gan nodded again and again after hearing this: "The same young lady from the princess's family, and they are all married to Cangzhou." Although Sister Zhen'er's dowry does not have to go over Sister Hui'er, it cannot be worse than her. He asked her again, "Is Aunt Wen still helping to prepare?" ”
Yiniang smiled, "She is very attentive." I looked at the things that were prepared, each more delicate than the other, and each more novel than the other. The 10,000 taels of silver given by Hou Ye are only afraid that they have already been spent. The dowry was only half purchased. She said, taking a sip of sour plum soup, "I'm going to settle accounts with Aunt Wen in a few days, and see if I can let Master Hou take some money privately to subsidize the subsidy." ”
Mrs. Gan smiled when she heard this: "It's good for you to make other people's money not feel painful." ”
Eleven Niang smiled: "When money is earned, it is for people to spend." Isn't there a saying that if your children and grandchildren want to be angry, what's the use of keeping money. Children and grandchildren are not angry, and it is useless to keep money. It is better to leave a large sum of money and go on your own. It's better than those who come out with their bare hands. ”
Mrs. Gan couldn't help but savor it when she heard this.
"Not bad." She muttered, "Look at the Gan family, they were also one of the founding fathers back then. There are still a few families who have always been saints and have not suffered any twists and turns. But look at it now, I'm afraid that even the Marquis of Weiyuan Mansion can't compare. ”
The Marquis of Weiyuan's Mansion was taken away from the title like the Marquis of Yongping, and the Xu family finally had a queen and a general, but the Lin family relied on several generations of business to turn a down-and-out family into one of the wealthy families in Yanjing.
After speaking, he remembered that he also got part of the Gan family's shop, so he stopped the topic, and asked about Shi Niang's birthday with a smile: "You can't have a banquet on today's birthday, so don't you have to be a little lonely?" ”
"It's not deserted." Shi Niang said with a smile, "Brother Yu asked someone to bring back a folding fan with his own handwriting, Brother Zhen made a flute and gave it to me, Brother Zhen sent me a jar of crystal candy that he likes to eat, and Sister Zhen helped me make two pairs of shoes." Everyone gathered around and happily ate a bowl of longevity noodles. It's very lively. ”
Mrs. Gan couldn't help but show envy.
She has had no children in her life and loves children the most.
"Brother Jie, too, knows how to send you something?"
"Hmm. It was given to him by Mrs. Tai before, and he was not willing to eat it! ”
"Someday you come and bring him in, so I can see too." Mrs. Gan smiled, "I heard that she is very beautiful!" ”
"The children are all beautiful......"
The two of them talked about the children for a long time, until the little maid came to ask where the kang table for lunch was, and they stopped the topic and went to have lunch.
As soon as the chopsticks were put down, Mrs. Gan came to visit.
She only chatted with her over tea.
Seeing that she seemed to have something to say, Eleven Niang made an excuse to go to the clean room.
It's just that Mrs. Gan lives in a small place, and the house is quiet, and the words that shouldn't be heard can still be heard clearly.
"It was a mess a few days ago," Mrs. Gan said with a little respect in her tone, "I didn't bother to come up to greet you, three days of fishing, two days of drying nets, some of them are not in a proper manner." Now that the name has been decided, the original rules must also be established. Uncle's meaning, let me bring the children to you every day in the future, so as to fulfill filial piety. ”
Mrs. Gan was very surprised to hear this, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "No." I'm a widow, and I'd better be clear. ”
"You can't say that," said Mrs. Gan, insisting, "no matter what, you are always our mother. ”
Mrs. Gan didn't dare to talk about it.
Mrs. Gan was anxious, and simply said: "Those of us who are parents must also set a good example for our children." ”
Mrs. Gan suddenly thought about it, and said, "Then come to say hello on the first and fifteenth days of each month!" After the three-year filial piety period has passed, we will talk about it. ”
Mrs. Gan breathed a sigh of relief, accompanied Mrs. Gan to say a few words, said hello to Eleven Niang, and got up to leave.
Mrs. Gan couldn't help but laugh at herself: "I finally have some effect!" ”
Shi Niang felt sad, so she could only comfort her: "No matter what the reason, I can respect you as an elder, and you can't worry too much about them." I like to let them say hello, and if I don't like it, I just say that I am not feeling well! ”
Mrs. Gan laughed when she heard this: "This is your mother-in-law's usual trick, right?" ”
Eleven Niang was naturally not good at discussing, so she only pursed her lips and smiled.
Mrs. Gan remembered Eleven Niang's sudden visit. said: "Seeing that you look leisurely, I only care about pulling you to talk when I enter the door." You didn't say hello to any of them, so you hurried to me! ”
According to the etiquette, you should send your mother to make an appointment before visiting the door, so as not to encounter the other party who is inconvenient to receive or go out.
"I'm here to avoid people." Eleven Niang was very calm, "Mrs. Jianning Hou suddenly sent someone to visit me in the morning, I didn't want to see her, so I came to you." ”
Mrs. Gan was stunned for a moment, and then became a little worried.
"That's not a solution!" She said, "Since Mrs. Jianning Hou wants to see you, if she can't do it this time, there will definitely be a next time." And she and you belong to the same Mrs. Hou, both are relatives of the emperor, although in the past the two of you did not move around much, but now there is Aunt Yang involved, she came to visit you, which can be said to be a normal courtesy visit between the princess and his wife, or it can be said that she went for the Yang family. If you don't listen to what she says like this, you avoid it, and you can't help but be a little childish. If there are any more gossips that you are fighting with a concubine, and people misunderstand that you do not have the tolerance and generosity of a housewife, it will be even more worth the loss. I think you'd better meet her, right? I listened to what she had to say before making a plan. ”
"I know what my sister said." Eleven Niang said meaningfully, "It's not that I haven't thought about it." I'm just doing this to show you my attitude. She said, her expression became a little serious, "'Go with the Yang family as a serious relative', although this sentence was said by Princess Fucheng, but what the people of the Yang family think and how others think about it is a matter to be discussed." But if I was asked to meet Mrs. Jianning Hou like this without explanation, and someone with a heart said that I was going to talk to the Yang family about 'going to walk around as relatives', then what would I become? What has become of our Luo family? By the end of the sentence, there was a fierce tone in his tone.
Mrs. Gan heard that what she said made sense, and couldn't help but look at her slightly: "In case you offend the Yang family because of this......
"There are some things that I must never agree to." Eleven Niang's eyes are firm.
Also, if you go with a concubine's family as a relative, it is tantamount to giving up your right to be the main room.
Mrs. Gan sighed, no longer persuaded her, and instructed the little maid to bring a handkerchief with incense and put it next to Eleven Niang's pillow: "It's *** incense, you take a nap." It's never too late to think about those troublesome things! ”
Eleven Niang was originally going to go back in the evening, but she was not polite, she took a nap on the kang, and told Mrs. Gan about the wedding shop in the afternoon: "...... Although the complement didn't make much money, he made a lot of money. Many officials in Yanjing knew that we could embroider the complements in the palace and found a wedding shop to make supplements. ”
"That's good!" Mrs. Gan smiled, "One more business, one more income!" ”
"I think so too." Eleven Niang smiled, "So let Master Jian make up his own mind." If the price is right, it doesn't hurt to do the rest. ”
The two chatted all over the world, and Eleven Niang went back after dinner.
