Chapter 574: Misunderstanding (II)

"Auntie" Xu Siyu bowed to the fifth lady.

The fifth lady looked at her nephew in front of her, who was a little thin but as handsome as a jade tree in the wind, and couldn't help but secretly praise in her heart, and looked at Xu Siyu with a new gaze.

"In the blink of an eye, my brother has grown into an adult." She smiled, "I thought you wouldn't take the hospital exam this year, but I didn't expect to come back on such a hot day."

Xu Siyu said respectfully: "Mr. Jiang said that I delayed a lot of homework and left me for a few more days. That's why I'm late. ”

The fifth lady smiled slightly and quipped: "No wonder I see that you look confident"

Xu Siyu said with a smile: "There is no first in literature, and there is no second in martial arts." Until the end, no one knows the outcome. "The attitude is humble and confident.

The fifth lady showed a little appreciation in her expression, turned her head and said to Mrs. Tai: "Brother Yu'er is getting better and better at talking. It can be seen that this child is older, and he should be released to see the world."

"Standing and talking doesn't hurt your back." Mrs. Tai said angrily, "In the past few years, Brother Yu'er has been running back and forth, and I don't know how hard it is. Then he said to Xu Si, "Don't pay attention to your fifth aunt, go and rest, everyone has lost weight" with a little pity in his tone.

Xu Siyu gave up his hand and was about to retire in response, when the second lady came.

"I thought you wouldn't be taking the hospital exam this year, but I didn't expect to rush back at this time," although her expression was faint, her concern was still overflowing, "But what happened?" ”

A trace of gratitude flashed on Xu Siyu's face, and he hurriedly said what happened again: "...... I'm going to say hello to my second aunt later."

"Let's go again tomorrow morning," said the second lady, "and I also have something to ask you."

In the morning, cool down.

Xu Siyu lowered his head and replied respectfully "yes".

Mrs. Tai looked at it and smiled: "Okay, okay, let's go and rest" and instructed Eleven Niang, "Don't ask." If you have anything to say, let's talk about it tomorrow so that this child can have a good rest."

Eleven Niang responded with a smile, and asked Mother Song to send Xu Siyu out of the inner courtyard, and discussed with Mrs. Tai: "Call all the children to you for a meal at noon tomorrow?" It's also a dust wash for Brother Yu'er."

"Okay," Mrs. Tai said with a smile, "Call Brother Qin and Brother Jian as well." Everybody's lively"

"Then it's better to go to the Weeping Water Pavilion." The fifth lady smiled, "It's also cooler over there, and the children can also fish and row." We can also fight cards. ”

Mrs. Tai smiled when she heard this: "It's not a family, don't enter a family." You have been with Xiao Wu for a few years, and you haven't learned anything else, this ability to eat, drink and have fun, I think, among you concubines, you are the first. ”

"Mother's ......" the fifth lady pulled Mrs. Tai's sleeve and sprinkled coquettishly.

Mrs. Tai smiled and said to Eleven Niang: "Then let's say so, let's set up a family banquet in Chonglun Water Pavilion."

Eleven Niang smiled and nodded, accompanied Mrs. Tai to talk, got up and retired first, and went to arrange tomorrow's banquet.

Who knew that as soon as she walked out of Mrs. Tai's yard, someone called her behind her: "Fourth brother and sister"

In addition to the second lady in this house, who else would call her "brother and sister".

Eleven Niang turned around and saw the second lady hurrying across the courtyard towards her.

She smiled and shouted "second sister-in-law".

The second lady smiled shallowly and said, "I have something I want to ask the fourth brother and sister to help...... she said, looking at the location of the main courtyard, "I'm too far away there, let's talk to you."

Eleven Niang was a little surprised. Thinking that the second lady was a little arrogant and not a person who casually asked people to "help", she smiled and sat down with the second lady in the flower hall of the main courtyard, let the maids serve cold mulberry tea, and sent the servants around her, so she said: "What is the matter with the second sister-in-law looking for me?" ”

The second lady took a sip of the teacup and said softly: "My mother's nephew Yijia, the fourth brother and sister must have heard about it, right?" ”

Eleven Niang was very surprised, I don't know why she mentioned it, and said implicitly: "Hearsay said something"

The second lady sighed slightly when she heard this, and said, "I want to ask the fourth brother and sister to help us Yijia talk about family affairs."

Eleven Niang looked at the second lady, unable to hide her surprise.

The second lady has already said: "I know, this matter is not so easy to do" Her expression was slightly gloomy, "My sister-in-law is also heartbroken for Yijia's marriage." I see that the people you have found for Sister Zhen and Twelve Niang are very proper, and I want to ask you to help Yijia talk about family affairs. ”

Eleven Niang's face is difficult.

Mrs. Xiang has been heartbroken for her son in recent years and has not found a suitable one, obviously very demanding and picky, such a person is not good for her to be the master......

She thought of the last time the second lady was a matchmaker for Xu Siyu.

I don't know if this is the second lady's own idea? Or was it Mrs. Xiang's idea? If it's the latter, it's okay to say. It is also common sense for relatives to have suitable help to talk about it. But if it's the former......

The second lady saw that she was a little hesitant, misunderstanding that she was for the sake of Yijiake's wife's reputation. said: "If there is a suitable person, the four brothers and sisters don't have to hide it from each other, I don't believe it, everyone in this world believes in such strange and chaotic things" In the end, it was a little sonorous.

Eleven Niang smiled bitterly.

With such a strong attitude, even if there is a suitable one, I am afraid that it will be a little difficult.

She reminded the second lady: "I'm just afraid that I can't find something that satisfies Mrs. Xiang, but I will disappoint her."

The second lady is a smart person who knows the sound and knows the elegance. After being silent for a moment, he said, "You also know that Yijia once made a marriage contract with the second daughter of Han Hanlin's family. After the death of the second lady of their family, Yijia talked about the family affairs again, and as soon as she made a small decision, the woman fell ill and died. Her voice was heavy, and the fame of Yijiake's wife spread. My sister-in-law was so angry that she recuperated for more than half a year before she recovered. Knowing that Chi Jia's marriage was difficult to find, he thought about finalizing the marriage of Rou Ne and Rou Qian first. finally found a satisfactory home, and the family came to look at each other, but they fell in love with the lively temperament of Rouhumility. ”

I kissed my sister, but I took a fancy to my sister......

Eleven Niang couldn't help but sit up straight, and her expression became a little solemn.

"Naturally, my sister-in-law will not agree." The second lady said, "Rouqian also feels guilty. Fortunately, Rou Ne is a reasonable child, and said, it is the family that doesn't know the severity, how can they blame the sister. Rouqian felt a little better. As he spoke, there was a smile on his face.

Eleven Niang gently bowed her head.

It is indeed commendable that the second miss of the Xiang family can think like this.

"It's just that this has left a thorn in my sister-in-law's heart." The second lady said, "She first settled on Rouqian's family affairs. When I went back and said goodbye to Rou Ne, Rou Ne was already sixteen years old and Yijia's marriage was sandwiched between them, and my sister-in-law was staggered, and her hair was gray in the past two years.

Roujin is also worried about her sister's marriage. Last time she got married, I went back to drink wedding wine, and I specially asked my close mother to come to me and tell me about it. You want me to help Roune find a good family. That's when I found out about it.

"I came back and thought about it. Roune is a woman, and a woman's marriage is like a second reincarnation. My sister-in-law will definitely be selective. Yijia is a man, and there are such rumors, as long as the woman's family background is innocent and her conduct is outstanding, most of the others will not be picky. Speaking of this, the second lady was a little helpless, "I have lived in a simple house all these years, how do I know the situation of the children in each family?" My mother is also old, and I really can't bear to let her old man work hard for this. After thinking about it, I wanted to ask the four brothers and sisters to help me. If I can help Yijia talk about family affairs, it can be regarded as solving the problem for my sister-in-law, so that my sister-in-law can also be busy with soft things wholeheartedly. As for whether it can be said or not, it also depends on the fate of the two families. At the end of the words, there was a bit of a sigh.

The second lady is a cold-faced and hot-hearted person, right?

Otherwise, she wouldn't have helped the Fang clan out of the siege without saying a word

With the last words of the second lady, Eleven Niang responded with a smile: "...... I can't guarantee that I will be satisfied with my second sister-in-law."

What Eleven Niang promised, she will do her best. Whether it succeeds or not, sometimes it depends on the will of God

The second lady smiled and picked up the teacup and lifted it towards her: "I'm here to thank the fourth brother and sister first."

Eleven Niang smiled and took a sip of the teacup, which was regarded as accepting her gratitude.

Putting down the teacup, she asked about Xiang Yijia's situation, and suddenly there was a sound outside the door.

The two of them looked towards the door together.

I saw that the bamboo curtain of Xiangfei was knocked open and hit the door frame, and a small figure broke in.

"Mother, mother," Brother Jin threw himself into Eleven Niang's arms, "My yellow oriole my yellow oriole"

It may be that he was sweating all the way, his little face was red, and he was anxious and angry.

Eleven Niang motioned to the maid next to her to twist a handkerchief and come over to wipe Brother Jin'er's face, and then said softly: "Your second aunt is here, why don't you shout?" ”

Brother Jin pouted and shouted "Second Aunt" aggrievedly.

The second lady saw that Eleven Niang had housework to deal with. Nodding at Brother Jin with a smile, and was about to get up to say goodbye, Eleven Niang had already looked at the panting red veins and Ah Jin and said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?" ”

Hongwen and Ah Jin exchanged a look, and said softly: "I met the second miss in the garden just now, and the maid next to the second miss carried a birdcage with two orioles in it......" As he spoke, his voice gradually lowered, and his eyes cautiously looked at Eleven Niang's expression, "It's exactly the same as the sixth young master......

Eleven Niang was stunned.

Brother Jin jumped and jumped on the side: "Mine, my...... My grandmother gave me ......"

Eleven Niang understood.

"Silly boy," she smiled and helped Brother Jin wipe the sweat off her face, "You can go and see if your bird is not there?" ”

As soon as Eleven Niang's words fell, Brother Jin pushed her hand away, turned around and ran out.

Hongwen and Ah Jin hurriedly saluted Eleven Niang and hurriedly followed.

The second lady smiled and said goodbye.

Eleven Niang sent her to the door.

When I turned around, I saw Brother Jin running along the verandah.

"Mother, mother," his face was full of excitement, "my yellow bird, my yellow bird"

The red stripe who came over also hurriedly added: "The yellow oriole of the sixth young master is still hanging under the eaves of the back cover room."

Eleven Niang touched Brother Jin'er's head and taught Hongwen and Ah Jin: "Brother Jin'er's bird is taken care of by Suifeng, how can you give it away casually?" Brother Jin is still young and ignorant, and sometimes you have to help him think about it more. Fortunately, Brother Jin came to me to talk about things, if you run to Mrs. Tai and say, think about it, let the fifth lady know, how embarrassing it should be, if you encounter something in the future, you have to think more."

Hongwen hurriedly bowed his head and responded "yes": "I won't dare to do it again"

The younger Ah Jin couldn't help but muttered in a low voice: "It's the second young lady, saying that the pair of yellow birds were asked by the fifth master from his wife...... He also said that since it was given to her, it was hers, and the sixth young master was not allowed to go back......"

It's a little late, so let's get up yesterday morning and watch it again
