Chapter 207: Powder and Ink (II)

Eleven Niang was very envious that the second lady could spend the Spring Festival quietly in Xishan. Hearing Xu Lingyi say this, he naturally would not be reluctant, and personally sent the second lady to the Hanging Flower Gate to take the car.

On the way, the second lady said, "Fourth brother and sister, in fact, I want to talk to you alone." ”

No wonder she suddenly ran to say goodbye to herself.

Eleven Niang suddenly realized, thinking that she had spent her time talking to herself alone, but she was afraid that she would not stop until she achieved her goal, so she smiled and said: "If the second sister-in-law has any instructions, just say it!" ”

"I can't talk about orders." The second lady smiled faintly, "You don't have to be so polite. ”

Seeing her cold attitude, Eleven Niang smiled at her.

"I asked Master Hou to recognize the child, you must be uncomfortable!" The second lady stopped, and her dark eyes looked at her steadily, quiet and profound.

"Nope!" Eleven Niang smiled, "I think what the second sister-in-law said is very reasonable." Instead of making a fuss like this, it is better to recognize the child. It's better than something worse to hear. ”

"If only you could think like that." The second lady was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then said with a smile, walking forward while whispering to her, "You know, there are no eggs under the nest." Only when this home is good, can our life be good......"

Then he gave her a lesson on "what is team spirit".

Eleven Niang knew that everyone thought she was young and ignorant. So I always treat her like a child when I encounter problems. Sometimes it's well-intentioned, sometimes it's schadenfreude. Although the second lady's tone was indifferent, there was no malice, she listened all the way, nodded all the way, and sent the second lady to the door of the hanging flowers.

The carriage was already waiting there, and the mother-in-law who followed set up a stool to board the horse, but the second lady did not rush to get on the car, but said to Eleven Niang: "...... As for what happens to that child in the future, you can rest assured. Since I said this, I won't embarrass you, and I won't ask for a penny from the Hou Ye. I'll be able to afford it. ”

Eleven Niang was stunned.

The second lady had already smiled and nodded and got into the carriage.

Looking at the carriage in the distance, Eleven Niang couldn't help laughing.

This second lady is quite interesting.

And Xu Lingyi saw her eyebrows and eyes folded back with a smile, thinking that Yuan Niang and the second sister-in-law had always broken up unhappily in the past, and couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong?" So happy? ”

Eleven Niang told Xu Lingyi the words of the second lady: "...... Because I proposed to raise the child in our house, I feel a little uneasy! ”

Xu Lingyi couldn't help frowning: "It's not a matter of which room." He also explained to Eleven Niang, "The second sister-in-law has a few money-making businesses in her hands, although she is not bad for silver, but she is a widowed sister-in-law after all, and we can't take this silver." ”

"I know." Eleven Niang nodded again and again, "If it spreads, others will think that we are slandering the widow's belongings." That's really jumping into the Yellow River and can't be washed. ”

Seeing that she understood the matter, Xu Lingyi couldn't help touching her head and said, "I'll add fifty taels of silver to you every month in the future." After a pause, he added, "Take it from the outer court." ”

Eleven Niang was stunned.

Does Xu Lingyi want to stick his own money to himself?

Is it because of the reason why Feng Qing will keep it in her own house?

She hesitated. Xu Lingyi already said: "It's not early, we have to go to the red light alley when we go to the bowstring alley." ”

Eleven Niang responded, put on a cloak and went to Mrs. Tai with Xu Lingyi.

Knowing that the two of them were going to talk to Master Luo about this, Mrs. Tai sighed, patted Shi Niang's hand, and said nothing.

When I arrived at Gongxian Hutong, the situation was even more unexpected than Eleven Niang.

Rumors have been heard by the Luo family. Regarding Xu Lingyi's matter of having an illegitimate child to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, the eldest lord not only had no objection, but persuaded Eleven Niang to "respect her husband and love her husband, and obey him", not to have a gap with her husband for this matter, and also told her to treat her concubine well and be a virtuous and virtuous woman, so as to live up to the teachings of the eldest wife.

Eleven Niang listened to the cold sweat, and couldn't help but guess in her heart, whether the eldest master could particularly understand this kind of thing......

And Luo Zhenxing saw that his father's words were getting longer and longer, and he glanced at Eleven Niang: "I haven't gone to say hello to my mother yet!" ”

Eleven Niang took the opportunity to get up and leave, leaving Xu Lingyi to talk in the study with the eldest master and Luo Zhenxing.

Big * are waiting for her under the eaves.

When he saw her come out, he immediately greeted her and said in a low voice: "Who is the child raised in?" ”

Although she knew that Xu Lingyi had made a promise, she was still worried.

"Raised in the name of Aunt Tong."

Big * milk breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good." That's good. He added, "My mother doesn't know about this yet." Don't talk about it later. ”

Eleven Niang nodded, but when she looked up, she saw the fourth grandmother coming over.

Her jet-black hair was curled into a bun, only a red gold ruyi hairpin was inserted, she wore a bean-green silk jacket, a blue-green skirt, and her eyes were clear and bright, revealing spirit.

Eleven Niang hurriedly stepped forward to salute and say hello.

The fourth grandmother smiled and returned the salute, and did not ask her what she was doing when she came back, but only invited her to sit in the back room where she lived: "...... It's cold, but it's still warm in the house. ”

Eleven Niang thanked her: "I haven't gone to greet my mother yet." ”

The fourth grandmother helped her tie the curtain with the eldest * grandmother and accompanied her to the eldest lady's house.

The eldest lady's condition did not improve. Seeing that Eleven Niang was taken aback, she looked at Mother Xu who was serving on the side with a worried face. Eleven Niang knew that she was strange that she came back suddenly, and before Xu's mother could speak, she said, "Master Hou is getting better today, so I came to see my father." ”

The big * grandmother also helped on the side: "You are sick, it is inconvenient for Master Hou to come in to visit." Dad stayed in the study to talk. ”

The eldest lady nodded.

Eleven Niang asked about the eldest lady's body, and said a few words, the eldest lady wetted the bed, Mother Xu and the fourth grandmother served to scrub and change clothes, and the eldest * grandmother accompanied Eleven Niang to her house.

When she went out, she immediately said, "Fifth Aunt has been a little uncomfortable in the past two days, do you want to go and see?" ”

Eleven Niang was taken aback: "Thank you, sister-in-law." Please take me to see it. ”

The big * grandmother smiled and took her to the east wing where the fifth aunt lived.

Because it was winter, the windows of the wing room were all closed, and it was an old-fashioned window lattice, and the light in the room was very dark. The royal blue tent is half-hanging, in broad daylight, and the shadows are full, and it is not very real.

"Fifth aunt. Aunt Eleven is here! ”

With the voice of the big * milk, a disgusting and happy face leaned out of the tent.

"Eleven, Eleven." The fifth aunt stumbled, and saw that Eleven Niang was not happy, but her face was flushed, as if Eleven Niang's arrival had disturbed her.

Eleven Niang looked strange and asked the big * milk with her eyes.

The big * grandmother was also confused in her heart, shook her head slightly, and said in a low voice: "I don't have a lot to ask about the things in Daddy's house." Then he smiled and said to the fifth aunt: "I heard that you are not feeling well, and the eleventh aunt came to see you." ”

The fifth aunt had already gotten out of bed, and when she heard the big * grandmother say this, her head shook like a drum: "I'm not sick, I'm not sick." Aunt Eleven doesn't have to come to see me. There was even a little panic in his expression.

Could it be that the eldest lady said something, so the fifth aunt is afraid?

Seeing her look dazed, although she was wearing a brand new white silk jacket, the peach-colored makeup gown on the hanger was old clothes from previous years, and there was no serving maid in the house, so I asked her what was wrong, and she couldn't say why, so I was a little sure in my heart.

Because the big * milk was by her side, the fifth aunt looked panicked again, and it was inconvenient for the eleventh aunt to ask anything. After sitting for a while, he got up and said goodbye, and went to her place with the big * grandmother.

The two sat on the big kang by the window, the little maid served tea, and the big * milk comforted Eleven Niang: "Don't worry." I'll keep an eye out for you. If something happens, someone will tell you about it. ”

"Thank you, sister-in-law!" Eleven Niang took a sip of tea with a smile and said, "After all, it is a matter in my father's house, and it is inconvenient for my sister-in-law to interfere." It's just that I see that my aunt doesn't have anyone to serve around, so I have to ask my sister-in-law to take care of it more. ”

The big * grandmother's face turned red, and she responded with an embarrassed expression, and changed the topic as if evading: "I went to see Shi Niang two days ago." He said. Sighing, "That kid didn't save it!" ”

Eleven Niang's mind turned before she remembered - the last time she went back to her parents' house, she said that Jin Mei next to Shi Niang was pregnant.

"What? Wang Lang went to make trouble? ”

The milk said, "It was said that I was bored lying in the village, and I helped the mother-in-law in the village to pick up two eggs, and the child was gone." ”

"This is also the blessing that the Wang family does not have!" Eleven Niang didn't have a good impression of Wang Lang, and she wasn't even interested in listening to his, so she asked Twelve Niang: "Why didn't you see her?" ”

"The sixth aunt locked her in the house every day, and she was not allowed to go out without writing two large characters on two pieces of paper."

Eleven Niang thought of Wu Niang, and thought of her wanting to help find Fan Weigang by herself: "...... Didn't come back these days? ”

"It's inconvenient to be pregnant. Didn't come back. "The big * milk should be, but when it comes to Qi Niang," ...... She sent so many things in one go, and I racked my brains to give her a gift in return. If it happens like this every year in the future, it will be really unbearable. ”

"This is her first year of marriage, so naturally she has to pay attention to it." Eleven Niang returned to the big * milk, but thought about Wu Niang.

It seems that I didn't go back to my parents' house to talk about it!

Although she politely refused, I was afraid that she would not die for a while......

The two were gossiping, and a maid came over from the study: "Master Hou is going back!" ”

The big * grandmother accompanied Eleven Niang to say goodbye to the eldest lady and sent her to the door of the weeping flowers.

The two of them went to Dingnan Housun's house in Red Light Hutong.

The Sun family's mansion is smaller than the Xu family, and it is all built according to the specifications of the Hou Ye, and the gates, walls, courtyards and halls are all similar.

Hou Ye didn't get the lord of Danyang County until he was in his forties, and in his early years, he fought the Songzhou Rebellion with the first emperor, although he was the same generation as Mrs. Tai, but both age and seniority were the first in the minister's office, Xu Lingyi was very respectful, and he did not evade, and took Eleven Niang to see Dingnan Hou.

Dingnanhou was not tall, but he was very burly, with white hair, and three jade balls the size of a baby's fist were wirling in his big fan-like hands.

He looked at Shi Niang carefully: "This is your little daughter-in-law." ”

The eyes are gentle, the smile is hearty, and it makes people feel very easy to get along with.

Xu Lingyi respectfully responded "yes".

He grinned, "Like an onion." ”

Eleven Niang couldn't help but be ashamed.

Do you say you're too skinny, or are you too small......

Xu Lingyi just laughed when he heard it.

Dingnanhou asked the maid to take Eleven Niang to see his wife, and went to the study with Xu Lingyi.

Xu Lingyi was not polite to Dingnanhou and told him what he meant.

Ding Nanhou sighed when he heard this: "You guys have ideas!" ”

Xu Lingyi saw that he had already spoken. After chatting with Dingnanhou for a few more words, he got up and said goodbye.

See you in the old time, the old place...... O(∩_∩)O~
