Chapter 523: Suffering a Loss (Part II)
"I don't know how the third brother and the third sister-in-law discussed." Xu Lingyi said, "I wrote to me because I wanted me to talk to my mother." ”
Eleven Niang thought of the previous agreement.
I said that I would wait a few years and divide it slowly. I didn't expect Sanfang to be in such a hurry!
"What does Master Hou mean?" She asked Xu Lingyi.
"Forget it. Twisted melons are not sweet. Xu Lingyi's tone was very crisp, but his face was slightly worried, "Since the third brother and the third sister-in-law are wholeheartedly thinking about living their own small lives. We don't agree, I'm afraid there will be trouble in the future. Originally, the third sister-in-law just closed the door and muttered a few words at home, but now that she has picked up her nephew and daughter-in-law, and then makes trouble, won't the juniors see jokes or even learn from them? Besides, no matter if they can't get out or not, we have to take care of whatever happens to Brother Qin and Brother Jian'er. It's better to follow the third brother's wishes, leave home without separation, let Brother Qin and Brother Jian go to Mitsui Hutong to study behind closed doors, and the affairs of the inner courtyard will be presided over by the Fang family. If the children can support the court, then what else is there to say - the third brother will be able to stand on his own. If there is something wrong with the children, and the third brother and sister-in-law are not at home, it is only right for us to be uncles. It won't be a big deal! ”
That's it!
Eleven Niang thought that the Fang family had just entered the door, and that she had to sit here to take advantage of the third lady's absence, she faintly felt that the third lady seemed to be a little resistant to the Fang family's closeness to her, so she was even more reluctant to get involved in the housework of the third room.
It's better to make life simpler.
"Now that Master Hou already has an idea," she smiled, "then mention it to my mother!" How embarrassed is the third master to say these words! ”
Xu Lingyi nodded: "Let's talk about it after Brother Jin'er's first birthday ceremony." By then, Brother Qin, they will be married for almost a month! ”
If you can't vacate a house in the first month of marriage, you can't move.
The topic of the two naturally turned to Brother Jin'er's first birthday.
“…… My mother is old, and I just finished my brother's marriage and my brother's first birthday ceremony, I'm afraid that her old man's body won't be able to bear it. Eleven Niang said in a low voice, "I think, Brother Jin'er's first birthday ceremony is not as simple as doing it!" ”
Xu Lingyi was a little hesitant.
Eleven Niang hurriedly said: "What's more, we have to catch Zhou." What do you want so many people to watch the excitement do? What matters is what Brother Jin caught at that time! ”
Xu Lingyi's attention was shifted to the longing for Brother Jin'er to catch Zhou.
"Then it's easy!" He lay down and hugged Eleven Niang, "You say, what will Brother Jin catch when the time comes?" The grab knife is ready. When the time comes, he will be sent to the Xishan camp, how can he be a commander of the three products. The tone was very confident.
Eleven Niang couldn't help sweating.
Sent to the camp in the West Mountains? And then like those who rely on Yin En to enter the camp in Xishan, they live their lives every day on Zhangtai and on the hawk and on the dog?
"What is there to go to in the West Mountain Camp!" She couldn't help but say, "I wish he could grab a book or a green onion or something." Reading and being a man, when you grow up, you will travel everywhere and see it, and it will not be in vain to walk in this world! ”
Xu Lingyi smiled when she heard this: "I can't think of Brother Jin'er wearing a long robe and holding a scroll to Jiang Changyin!" ”
Eleven Niang knotted: "I can't think of Brother Jin'er who is dazed all day long and only knows how to eat, drink and have fun!" ”
"How so?" Xu Lingyi said with a smile, "The commander of the Xishan Battalion is not something that anyone can do. In addition to the background, you also need to have strength and skills. ”
Since you are rolling in the red dust pile, it is better to enter the office, build bridges, pave roads and control water, and do something to improve people's livelihood.
But whether it is going to the Xishan camp or reading and traveling, you must respect the child's preferences when the time comes. Anything to say now is nothing more than a wish imposed on the child by parents, like drawing a pie in the air, it is better to just draw it casually.
Thinking of this, Eleven Niang decided to put an end to the topic - why bother arguing about things that don't exist.
"Let's talk about the first birthday ceremony in front of us first!" She smiled, "Maybe we grabbed a box of rouge!" ”
The things that catch the week are all prepared in advance, which means mascots such as Fulu's birthday jubilee, who will put a box of rouge on it!
Knowing that Eleven Niang was joking, Xu Lingyi thought it was funny when she thought about it, and said with a smile: "Otherwise, when the time comes, we might as well put the box of rouge on the case, right?" Maybe I really grabbed a box of rouge! ”
"Let's let Hou Ye go!" Eleven Niang smiled, "Lest Brother Jin grows up and thinks that we are not serious parents!" ”
"Isn't that what you said?" Xu Lingyi looked sideways at Eleven Niang.
Under the light, the skin is as radiant as snow.
His heart was stirring.
bit her ear and didn't speak, but his hand reached into the placket of his shirt and held the warm fragrant nephrite on her chest and grinded it......
Eleven Niang gasped and stumbled and instructed him: "Blow, blow the lamp!" ”
Xu Lingyi laughed in a low voice.
Blew out the lamp as she wished.
After a while, a thin *** sound sounded in the darkness.
When she got up in the morning, Eleven Niang couldn't help but look at herself in the mirror who was sitting upright and couldn't hide the touch of Yanzhi between her eyebrows, and frowned, Gu's mother walked in with Brother Jin in her arms.
Eleven Niang sighed, covered her ears and pressed the scene just now in her heart, got up and hugged the child.
"Brother Jin, you're awake." She kissed her son on the cheek, "Did you sleep well yesterday?" ”
The child looked at her and grinned, but remained silent.
She couldn't help but look slightly dark.
I don't know why, this kid just doesn't speak.
Gu's mother next to her looked at it and hurriedly said, "The sixth young master slept soundly." I only turned over twice in the night, and I slept until dawn. ”
Eleven Niang nodded, and took Brother Jin to sit on the big kang near the window.
Brother Jin immediately climbed down from his mother's body, and took out the small mallet that he had snatched from Mrs. Tai's hand from under the kang, and held it in his hand a little proudly to show Eleven Niang.
Eleven Niang laughed and laughed. Affectionately touched his son's head: "No wonder everyone couldn't find it yesterday, it turned out that you were hiding here!" ”
Brother Jin giggled and climbed into her mother's arms.
Eleven Niang hugged him and kissed him again, and asked Gu's mother: "Are you still refusing to eat vegetable porridge in the past two days?" ”
Gu's mother lowered her eyelids slightly under her sharp gaze: "I still refuse to eat!" ”
"You can figure it out!" Eleven Niang looked at her and said lightly, "I have a word with the people of *** Mansion first, and you are on a five-year errand in our family." In the past five years, no matter whether Brother Jin'er has been milking or not, you have also milked him, and you are his nurse. There are some things that have to be a family, and they can't be messed up by his temperament. Do you understand? ”
Gu's mother's expression flashed with a hint of panic, and she hurriedly bent her knees to "yes".
Xu Lingyi walked in with high spirits.
"You're forcing our brother to eat vegetable porridge again!" He had just practiced his sword, and he was still sweating on his forehead.
Brother Jin'er's eyes lit up when he saw Xu Lingyi, and he stretched out his arm and shouted at him.
Xu Lingyi looked at her eyebrows with a smile in her eyes, and reached out to hug Brother Jin'er.
Brother Jin was like a thorn in his buttocks, twisting his body in his arms.
Xu Lingyi understood, smiled and gently threw him into the air.
The room resounded with Brother Jin'er's innocent laughter.
Eleven Niang couldn't help but stroke her forehead.
Brother Jin wants to play this game when he sees Xu Lingyi.
She stepped forward to stop: "Early in the morning, Master Hou is sweating, the child has just been breastfeeding, be careful and uncomfortable." ”
Xu Lingyi likes to play like this with Brother Jin, and when she heard this, she threw it twice, and turned around to hand over the child to Gu's mother.
Eleven Niang reached out and took it.
Xu Lingyi hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "You better take a break!" ”
Eleven Niang's face turned red, and she said with a straight face: "Master Hou, let's go and freshen up!" Later, the children will come to say hello. ”
Xu Lingyi glanced at her with a smile in her eyes, and then turned around and went to the clean room.
Brother Jin, who was playing happily, suddenly fell alone, very dissatisfied, jumping and kicking in his mother's arms, if it wasn't for Eleven Niang who knew that he would be like this, I am afraid that he would fall to the ground.
Gu's mother on the side flattered: "Our sixth young master is really strong. ”
Eleven Niang glanced at her with a smile, and sat on the kang with Brother Jin.
Zhu Xiang walked in, her expression pointing.
Eleven Niang instructed the servants in the house: "Go and set the meal!" ”
The crowd tiptoed back.
Zhu Xiang said in a low voice: "The third lady brought the eldest young grandmother to greet the lady." At first, I only said some happy things about Mrs. Tai, but then I asked about the congratulatory gift of this marriage! ”
The third lady still couldn't help it.
Eleven Niang thought of the third master's idea of "leaving home without separating from home".
No wonder she's in a hurry.
If you can't get the congratulatory gift before leaving Yanjing, you will definitely not have a chance in the future!
"What did Mrs. Tai say?"
"Mrs. Tai asked the third lady, is it the ceremony of each room for red and white ceremonies in the future?" There was a little smile in Zhu Xiang's voice, "And said, if that's the case, then call you and the fifth lady to make it clear." You're a descendant. Congratulatory gifts like the Yongchang Hou Mansion, the Zhongshan Hou Mansion, and the Zhongqin Bo Mansion will naturally belong to you. The congratulatory gift on the other side of the red light alley will go to the fifth lady's room. In addition to Mrs. Gan's congratulatory gifts, the congratulatory gifts of the rest of the Gan family went to the third lady's room. Whoever receives the congratulatory gift is responsible for the expenses of the feast. At that time, you will know how much each family spends on a capitation basis. ”
The gifts given by the public in each prefecture are all heavy gifts, unlike individuals, and they are all small gifts. If you calculate it like this, the five rooms and the three rooms will definitely be a loss. But this time it was Xu Siqin who got married, and there was only one table of guests on the side of the red light alley, no matter how much he lost, it would not hurt, but the Gan family had more than a dozen tables......
Eleven Niang smiled: "The third lady definitely doesn't dare to talk to you!" ”
The third lady answered vaguely when she heard this. Zhu Xiang smiled and nodded, "Then Mrs. Tai talked about the eldest grandmother." ”
Eleven Niang was a little surprised.
Zhu Xiang said with a smile: "Mrs. Tai said that the road is ten miles apart, and the countryside is different. What's more, the eldest grandmother grew up in Jiangnan. Now that I am a new daughter-in-law, there must be a lot of things that I am not used to. Let the third lady teach the young grandmother the rules well, lest the young grandmother not know what to do! ”
To teach the daughter-in-law the rules, it is natural to take the daughter-in-law with her to see things happening. And the third lady left Xu Siqin in the Yongping Hou Mansion, and she wanted to teach the new daughter-in-law, of course, she could only stay in the Yongping Hou. In this way, the third lady returned to the days when she had a mother-in-law and a concubine, and she needed to swallow her anger...... No, even worse than ever. This time, there is a mother-in-law, a daughter-in-law, and next to it is a concubine, and the third master is far away in Shanyang......
