Yuan Ning and the fifth elder brother returned to Ning nine days after their wedding, and Xingbao and Suo Yuluo invited many relatives to the banquet. Shu Ning, who did not enter the palace with her mother and sister-in-law to attend the wedding banquet last time, received an invitation this time, and after getting her mother's permission, she came to the house of her second uncle Xingbao.

Xingbao's house is only a five-entry mansion, which looks much smaller than Tatara's mansion, but it is also carved and painted, and the furniture and supplies are very particular. The front yard is huge, and the wedding tent is set up, which is enough to entertain 20 tables of guests, plus 10 tables in the inner hall to greet the female dependents, which is very lively.

Shuning, along with Zhenzhen, Fangning, Li, and Xitara, was led to the place where Yuanning lived before marriage, and after a little look at this courtyard, he only felt that it seemed to be slightly larger than Wanning's small courtyard. After a while, Yahuan came out to invite each other, and they hurriedly walked into the main room, and saw Susu happily coming up, and Wan Liuhashi sat still with a smile.

Yuan Ning was wearing a bright red Fujin dress, with a jeweled body, sitting upright like a ceremony, smiling and watching the sisters and sisters-in-law salute herself under the guidance of the accompanying grandmother, before saying: "They are all close relatives, there is no need for such a lot of courtesy, sit down quickly." "The demeanor and speech are full of the appearance of a prince Fujin, and everyone is a little uncomfortable when they hear it.

Shuning's heart was sour, as if she felt that the little sister who complained to her when she was wronged and would ask her for help when she was panicked had disappeared, and the one in front of her had become a stranger. However, she was actually mentally prepared, as soon as she stepped into the royal gate, Yuan Ning and their maiden relatives were equivalent to being in two classes, and it was impossible to be as casual as before.

However, Yuan Ning treats her and Su Su very kindly and politely, I don't know if it's because they are about to marry into the clan. It's just that the Li clan and the Hitara clan are very unaccustomed to it, and Wan Liuha has been laughing strangely beside them, which makes them very silent. Only Fang Ning and Zhenzhen were talking beside them, trying to make the atmosphere warmer. Shuning frowned. smiled and asked about Yuan Ning's situation after marriage.

Yuan Ning just replied lightly that it didn't matter, if it was related to the affairs of the palace, or the specific situation of their husband and wife. The grandmother behind her would always cough lightly twice, and Yuan Ning quickly changed the topic. But the mama coughed a few times. Yuan Ning quietly called Yahuan Wenyu: "Mama has a cough, you can help her go down and take some throat moisturizing pills." Wenyu really came to "please", and the grandmother followed out with a blue face, and the other accompanying grandmothers did not say anything again.

Then a few more people came, and even Suo Yuluo accompanied him into the room. Greet everyone with a smile and don't have to be inhibited. There are also two nieces of Suo Xue Luo, the oldest of whom is eleven years old, and is preparing to go to Beijing to learn some rules so that he can prepare for the next draft, so as to marry into the royal family like his cousin.

Yuan Ning also asked about the marriage between Su Su and Shu Ning, which was different from Shu Ning's small decision, Su Su had only passed the big decision two days ago, and the wedding date was set in November, and Shu Shu Jueluo's house was already making furniture. Su Su blushed and accepted everyone's congratulations and jokes. I don't know who it was, but suddenly mentioned Wanning, and the room suddenly became cold.

On the same day, Wanning left Chengde. Except for the landers who lived in the former earl's palace, the married daughter Fang Ning and his Tatara clan did not receive a letter. Only Xingbao is the only one. I heard some rumors, but I just thought that there was a maid in the house over there who eloped with the servants. However, with the demotion of Jin Bao. Feiyangu's Jin Jue, the news of the Chengde incident, and the fact that Wanning married the Sibeile Mansion, these families more or less knew some news, and the Xingbao family even laughed behind their backs several times. At this time, I don't know which one of them came out without eyes, which made everyone embarrassed.

In the end, it was Yuan Ning who rounded up the scene: "I am really happy to reunite with my sisters and sisters-in-law today, but according to the rules, I will have a banquet at the end of the day and return home before noon." It's not too early now, so why don't you go to the banquet outside? Everyone answered, got up and went to the woman's table.

When Yuan Ning and the fifth elder brother left their parents' house together, Shu Ning glanced at them from a distance, and only felt that although the couple were not close, they got along quite well, and couldn't help but sigh slightly. Looking at Yuan Ning's complexion, she is probably doing well.

Speaking of which, since Wan Ning entered the Sibeile Mansion, because it was not an official marriage, there was no rule of not returning to the door, so she couldn't go home. As a result, the Nala clan sent to send the dowry to see Wan Ning and her maid, and after seeing the environment, he came back to tell him that he only knew about her situation in the Tara Mansion.

On that day, because it was the wedding of the fifth elder brother, all the landlords of Baylor Mansion went to the palace to participate in the big banquet, although Wanning was colder, she did not suffer any crime. When she visited Fujin the next day, Yumin treated her politely, but she never saw the fourth elder brother.

Wan Ning lived alone in a small courtyard in Nafu, about the size of her own home, but a little far from the other courtyards. The house has assigned her two mothers-in-law and two girls, both of whom are very knowledgeable and honest. The degree of food and clothing is almost the same as that of another side room Li, but Li only gave birth to a daughter, so there will be some extra supplements. Wanning's life is quite good, but she is bored in the courtyard every day, and if she wants to go out, she must first obtain the permission of Fujin Yumin, if she sneaks out and is less than a foot away from the courtyard gate, someone will ask her to go back. No one came to the door as a guest, not even people like Song Gege who were at odds with her in the past, they didn't say a word, and when they met, they just nodded lightly. Yumin, a former friend, although her attitude is very polite, is no longer as close as she used to be.

The fourth elder brother never went to her room, nor did he see her, and Yumin came forward in everything. Wan Ning wanted to see him, but what she replied was Yumin's sentence "The woman in the backyard should only wait for Lord Belle to come in the courtyard, and there is no reason to entangle and force", which made her depressed. She also tried to bribe her subordinates and send things to the fourth elder brother, but no one was willing to accept her money, so she finally bought one, and was transferred away before the things were sent.

Fortunately, although she is obviously not liked by the fourth elder brother and has no official title, she has not been treated badly in terms of normal food and clothing, and her subordinates have not deliberately bullied her. It's just that she's like this, and it's really no different from a canary in a cage. The finch had its owner come to take a look, but she could only stare at the yard and the people in a daze.

When Nala heard the family's return, he was very sad in his heart, but he knew that she had food and clothing and someone to take care of her. And there was no one to follow the red top white, and my heart was also relieved, so I could only send my family to send some things every ten days and eight days. Chat with me for a while, so that my daughter will not be too boring when the Holy Son of the Last Age comes. In fact, she was in her heart. I don't want my daughter to become sensible.

The dowry prepared for Wan Ning that day was only three or four out of ten, such as the sixty-four boxes of jewelry, and only twenty boxes were sent to the Four Baylor Mansion. The remaining forty-four boxes were redistributed by Nala. gave a box to all the concubines, daughters-in-law, nieces and nephews, and nephews-in-law, and even Suo Xue Luo, Yuan Ning, Tatara Clan, Su Su and Fang Ning were not left behind. But Yuanning's box was returned, and Nala didn't care, and after accepting it, he picked up a box of almost land again, and asked someone to send it to the house of the girl who was about to get married, which was considered to add makeup to her.

The rest of the jewelry, clothes, clothing, antiques and so on, she handed them all over to Tong to pick up, whatever the other party liked. Tong thanked him. Unceremoniously took his daughter to the room where he put his things. As a result, she only picked out various hairpins and phoenix hairpins, collars, ornaments and other items in the jewelry, as well as some coral beads, honey pearls and eastern pearls. The clothes only pick red or similar colors, but antique calligraphy and paintings pick up most of them. She still felt a little sorry in her heart. Medicinal herbs, spices and the like were sent away. I had to do something else

She took her daughter and daughter-in-law to put all these into the basement warehouse of Huaiyuan and put three locks. One of the keys was kept by himself, and the other was given to the second sister-in-law, and then he told his family to pack their luggage and prepare to return to Fangshan.

This time, Zhenzhen also has to accompany her, because after she married into this family, she has not seen the real property of Sanfang, and she has asked about the accounts, which is not appropriate. After all, Shuning, who was originally in charge of most of Fangshan's housework, had already decided on family affairs, and Zhenzhen, as the new hostess of the younger generation, should also take over these things.

Before leaving, Tong privately summoned Zhenzhen to teach him face-to-face, but as a result, Zhenzhen's four married girls, only Qixi, Bafu Jiu'er went with her, and Liuru, who was more honest and responsible, stayed with Chaxiang and others to wait for Duanning. The Tong family also specially told the Ma San family to be more attentive, and recently the military department has been busy again, and Duanning can only arrive home after the unitary hour almost every day.

On the day of departure, they said goodbye to Duan Ning early in the morning, sent him out, and then went to the bamboo courtyard to meet the Nala clan. I don't know if it's because the blow has been too heavy recently, Nala looks like he is ten years older, and there are already a few gray hairs on his head. She only faintly said that she knew about the departure of the third room, and persuaded them to come back more.

It seems that because of her own beloved daughter, the title of the family was degraded, and she has been deprived of the status of the master mother in disguise, and now the housekeeper in the house is the Li family, and the Nala family himself, just slowly recuperates his body, occasionally chats with his daughters-in-law, or teases his grandchildren, and in his spare time, he begins to eat fasting and chant Buddha.

When Shuning and his entourage got on the bus at the second gate, they met a group of family members crying and begging the housekeeper not far away. Shuning quietly asked Su Xin who she was, and the answer she got was that she had recently been kicked out of her family, and she sighed secretly in her heart and didn't say anything.

Because it was demoted to the Baron's Palace, the Li family began to cut unnecessary manpower, and more than ten or twenty family members were released from the mansion. Some of them are honest and hardworking, and they are young and strong, so the Tong family took in six rooms, leaving two rooms to guard the Huaiyuan, and the others were taken to Fangshan to "discipline" for a while. On the side of the fourth room, I heard that I recently bought the house next door to the other courtyard, and I was planning to open up the partition into two courtyards, so that Chunning, who was ten years old, could move out of the main courtyard and live separately from his parents, so I also had to add manpower and asked for a few rooms. The other locals, there is really no one to take them in, and Xingbao is not interested, so he will cry and beg Manager Wu not to drive them away.

Although Shuning was quite sympathetic, she didn't plan to interfere. In the past, there were too many people in the house, but in fact, many of them were family members who had been reproduced for generations. Among them, there are many who like to chew their tongues, cause trouble, work lazily, be greedy for small gains, have unclean hands and feet, or are prone to gambling. Sanfang has always been strictly managed, but it's okay, and those under the Nala clan are really not good. What's more, being kicked out of the house does not mean that he will starve to death, as long as he is willing, he is still willing to provide a guarantee, but those who are used to a comfortable life, how can they be willing to throw away this golden job? Therefore, those who are willing to ask for a guarantee to work in another family only have two rooms.

Shu Ning somehow remembered that Brother Fang Qing. On that day he went to work as an errand and was not enslaved. I heard that after he went to Chengde with Wanning, he stayed with the fifth elder brother, and before he got married, he also mixed up the name of a guard. Later, the fifth elder brother broke with Wan Ning, and did not blame him, he thought that he could have a bright future, but he never thought that the official messenger of Shuntianfu came to the door, showed him the slave certificate proposed by Talafu, and said that he was a fugitive slave. The man who could prove that he was not a domestic slave entered the Sibeile Mansion, and he was forcibly taken away. Later, I only heard that he had been beaten, and no one knew about him again.

Shuning sighed again, she seemed to sigh a lot lately. Since the June draft, the 100-odd days of hard work have seemed to have passed several lifetimes, and the fate of almost everyone has changed. Walking on the road back to Fangshan again, she suddenly felt something unreal.

The only thing that makes her happy is that her marriage to Tongying is finally decided. Although Tongying has been busy in the military department since she returned to Beijing, and because of the rules of etiquette and religion, the two have not been able to see each other, but she occasionally receives a few words from him, and her heart is also sweet. Tong asked her to go back to Fangshan, although there was less opportunity to communicate, but she had a faint thought in her heart, feeling that if she was in Fangshan, she was afraid that it would be easier to meet Tongying. After all, in Jingli, she can only live in Tatara Mansion, and Tongying must go through many checkpoints to enter the mansion. In contrast, Fangshan is much freer. The biggest problem now is that Tongying doesn't know when she has time to leave the capital.

Thinking wildly, he unconsciously arrived at the door of the Fangshan Courtyard. Changgui was waiting in front of the gate early, and when he entered the door, Xiao Liu greeted him with a smile, Xianning broke free of his mother's hand, rushed up and hugged Xiaobao, and the two boys frolicked. Tong was so noisy that he had a headache, and with a wave of his hand, he let them play by themselves.

Before she could sit down and speak, Shuning noticed that Zhenzhen's face was not very good, and she seemed to have some signs of motion sickness, so she was very surprised and hurriedly told her mother. Seeing his daughter-in-law's face, Tong was also startled, and hurriedly asked Changgui to invite the doctor to come, and asked the maids to help Zhenzhen to lie down in the Duanning room to rest. Shuning went back to her small courtyard to find medicinal oil, rubbed a few drops on Zhenzhen, and looked at her face as if she was better.

Half an hour later, the doctor came, but the results of the diagnosis and treatment surprised and delighted everyone.

Jin-jin is pregnant.
