Chapter 588: Yu Gui (I)

Eleven Niang sat on pins and needles in Xiang's house, and after lunch, she used the excuse of worrying that Brother Jin was alone at home and got up to say goodbye.

Mrs. Xiang didn't stay long, and Mrs. Gao personally sent her to the door. Mrs. Gao also helped Eleven Niang into the carriage: "We don't have many relatives, if you are free, it is better to come and sit!" Looking at her eyes is as kind and kind as a mother looking at her daughter, and her gestures are full of the love of the elders, which makes people not feel abrupt.

Eleven Niang endured it so that she didn't show surprise. She smiled and helped Mother Song's outstretched arm: "Mrs. Gao is so polite, it makes me embarrassed to come again!" ”

Mrs. Gao naturally smiled and withdrew her hand.

Eleven Niang looked at it and admired it. The corner of his eye couldn't help but glance at the second lady behind him.

She frowned slightly, and her expression was a little embarrassed.

Eleven Niang sighed secretly and got into the carriage.

If you encounter something like this yourself, you will feel uncomfortable, right?

So as soon as she returned to the lotus, Eleven Niang immediately got into the small oil cart with the green curtain and instructed the mother-in-law who was driving the car: "Go to Mrs. Tai!" But when she walked to the door of Mrs. Tai, she changed her mind again: "Go to Master Hou!" ”

The mother-in-law was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly responded "yes" and sent Eleven Niang to the outer study.

Xu Lingyi is discussing next year's affairs with the stewards.

Although he has been idle at home in the past few years, he has not managed much housework, but he still has residual power, and he can use people, and his income has doubled compared to when the third master was the housekeeper. He is going to invite several big shopkeepers to his house for a meal during the Chinese New Year this year, which can be regarded as respecting their hard work for him over the years.

Hearing that Eleven Niang was coming, Xu Lingyi was very surprised, and instructed the little maid: "Please ask Mrs. to sit in the small study, and then make a pot of big red robes, and let the kitchen make a few snacks and send them over!" ”

The stewards bowed their heads as if they hadn't heard.

Xu Lingyi continued to discuss with several stewards.

But it's obvious that I'm a little absent-minded.

No one who can have a seat in front of Xu Lingyi is simple-minded.

Without waiting for Mr. Bai to look at the people around him, he already said, "Master Hou, I have to think about this matter carefully." Why don't you wait for the little ones to go down and discuss it? When there is a perfect charter, please ask the Hou Ye to decide. ”

Xu Lingyi felt that there were too many trivial things, and the discussion was endless. Anyway, he doesn't understand very well, so it's better to wait for the stewards who understand these things to discuss it and see if he is done.

With a soft "um", he walked briskly to the small academy, leaving behind a room of stewards who looked at each other.

* * * * * *

Eleven Niang sat upright on the Taishi chair near the window, and elegantly took a small sip of the tea cup with a blue and white background. But as soon as Xu Lingyi thought that she had come to him against her usual behavior, she felt that she must be anxious at the moment.

Without waiting for his wife to speak, he sent those who served in the house.

This saved Eleven Niang a lot of things.

She asked Xu Lingyi: "Master Hou, you said that the master of the Xiang family was good, did you fancy him and be able to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister in the future?" Or did you fancy him as a noble person and a good official? ”

Xu Lingyi was a little strange.

But when Eleven Niang was right, she never said things that had no purpose. He said calmly: "If you want to say that you want to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister, this will take a bit of chance." If you want to say that the quality is high, I am afraid that it will be difficult to cross the hurdle of the three products. When Mrs. Xiang was alive, he offended many people, probably because he suffered from Mrs. Xiang, and Mr. Xiang worked hard in this regard, from the elder to the little officials, and he had a lot of good friends. People lift people high. For this man to succeed, someone must lift him up. So I said that if he had enough chance, I was afraid that he would join the cabinet. ”

Eleven Niang didn't say anything, and looked directly into Xu Lingyi's eyes: "The Xiang family wants to revisit the marriage between Brother Yu'er and the second miss of the Xiang family!" ”

Xu Lingyi couldn't hide her surprise, and immediately said, "What did the second sister-in-law say?" ”

Eleven Niang told the truth: "The second sister-in-law didn't say anything. ”

Xu Lingyi didn't make a sound and pondered.

Eleven Niang was also thinking about this.

When Mrs. Xiang said this, the second lady did not say a word when she was around. With the character of the second lady, if she didn't agree, I was afraid that she would have stopped it loudly a long time ago. Since I didn't make a sound, I'm afraid I was a little willing in my heart.

Although she was opposed to marrying the Xiang family at the beginning, it was not because she felt that the Xiang family, but because Xu Lingyi had less respect for her. But later developed to today's banquet, which made her feel that Mrs. Xiang acted too freely, and some did not take into account the feelings of others, and there was a little resistance in her heart.

Xu Lingyu's road in the future will only get wider and wider, and he may not be able to find a wife with such good conditions as the second miss of the Xiang family, but it is not difficult to find a woman with an innocent family background and outstanding character to live with him safely and steadily. Why make things so complicated.

But Mrs. Tai has always loved the second lady. If Xu Siyu can marry the second lady of the Xiang family, it will be considered a kiss to the Xu and Xiang families. If Mrs. Tai is unwilling, she is afraid that even if Mrs. Tai blames Mrs. Xiang for being rude, she will be happy to marry the two families.

She simply came to see Xu Lingyi first.

She wanted to find a reason for herself not to object to the marriage of the two families. Secondly, she also wanted to hear Xu Lingyi's opinion on this matter. Compared with Xu Lingyi, she is like a frog sitting in a well, and she doesn't know the world outside me at all.

"If it weren't for Mrs. Xiang's dishonesty at the beginning, I think it's a good thing to be able to marry the Xiang family!" Eleven Niang said, "I want to hear what Hou Ye means?" ”

The implication is not optimistic.

Xu Lingyi listened and thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "I heard you last time, Dou Ge's niece is talking about kissing, has Mrs. Dou ever told our family's brother in front of you?" ”

Eleven Niang was stunned for a moment and said, "No! ”

"Have you ever thought about why not?"

"Although Brother Yu'er is a talent, he is still far from Jinshi! What's more, the further you go, the more difficult it will be. Eleven Niang said, "People like Dou Ge Lao may not take it seriously." ”

"That's just one of the reasons." Xu Lingyi said, "Another important reason is because we are relatives. Those who are far-sighted, such as Dou Ge Lao, don't want to get involved in the affairs of the prince in the future, so they naturally stay away from us. And those who only want immediate interests naturally want to marry our family wholeheartedly. The range of options we have becomes very small. So when Lord Xiang agreed to my brother's marriage, I was very happy and grateful. After all, there is an essential difference between Xu Lingyi's in-laws and Xu Lingyi's widowed sister-in-law's brothers! ”

Xu Lingyi agreed.

Eleven Niang was still a little awkward in her heart.

Xu Lingyi looked at it and thought for a long time, sighed softly, shook her hand and said, "If you really don't like it." Mother, let me say it! ”

When he said this, Eleven Niang was not easy to insist.

She gently withdrew her hand: "Master Hou, let me think about it again!" Then he turned and went to the inner court.

On the way, I met Xu Sizhen.

"Why is Mother here?" His face was full of surprise.

Eleven Niang smiled at him, saw the direction he was walking, and asked him affectionately, "Are you going to see your father?" ”

Xu Sizhen nodded: "Father asked me to come over at this time." said that he wanted to discuss with the stewards about the Spring Festival banquet for the big shopkeepers, so I also listened to it and learned how to manage the house's affairs. ”

"Then you listen carefully." Eleven Niang smiled and said a few words of encouragement, "Most of the family's income comes from these chores. ”

Xu Si nodded earnestly: "Father said the same thing." Mother don't worry, I will learn from Mr. Baiguan. ”

Eleven Niang smiled "um" and said goodbye to Xu Siyu.

When I looked up, I saw the cornices of Xu Siyu's roof.

She went to Xu Siyu.

"What would you think if we made your second aunt's niece a wife?"

Eleven Niang asked him sincerely.

Xu Siyu's "Teng" ground suddenly turned red, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

I was embarrassing him.

Eleven Niang stood up: "Do you continue to review your homework?" I'll go first! ”

Xu Siyu responded and sent Eleven Niang out, but just as she stepped out of the courtyard door with one leg, Xu Siyu's voice came from behind her with a little shame: "Second aunt, you have always treated me very well...... And the second aunt's knowledge is very good......"

What does this have to do with whether the second lady treats him well or not? What does it have to do with the second lady's knowledge?

Eleven Niang slandered in her heart, but there was ice and snow in her mind, and she understood it very well.

Xu Siyu has expressed his wishes.

Back at home, she freshened up and went to see Mrs. Tai.

Brother Jin and Brother Xu'er took a nap on Mrs. Tai's kang side by side, while Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Tai sat on the Taishi chair next to them and talked. Seeing Eleven Niang coming in, the second lady nodded to Eleven Niang a little uncomfortably: "Come here!" ”

"Go back and freshen up." Eleven Niang explained her late arrival.

The second lady got up and took her leave.

Mrs. Tai asked Shi Niang, "What happened?" I looked at Yi Zhen's expression as if he was uneasy. Did Mrs. Xiang say something again? I asked her and she didn't say anything! ”

Eleven Niang said to Mrs. Tai after 1510 without anything.

Mrs. Tai was not angry, but looked at her with some concern: "What do you mean?" ”

If Eleven Niang can't see Mrs. Tai's true intentions, she will live two lives in vain.

"I listen to my mother!"

This time, her voice sounded firmer.

Mrs. Tai patted her hand and said softly, "Then you can discuss it with the fourth child." ”

Xu Lingyi hugged her tightly: "In the future, we will go to whomever you like to marry Brother Jin'er and Brother Jin'er, and we will kiss in advance at whomever you like?" ”

The marriage of the eldest son and the second son was not decided by the eleventh mother, and he felt a little guilty.

Eleven Niang is not a person who holds on.

She was trembling before, because she felt that she had a great responsibility on her shoulders.

Life is lived by people.

Putting aside her personal preferences, since the parties think this family business is good, she has nothing to worry about.

Everyone is responsible for their own choices!

When she saw that Xu Lingyi was serious, she couldn't help but smile, and said, "Okay, I want to marry King Shun's daughter as a daughter-in-law." ”

Xu Lingyi thought about it for less than ten breaths, and said, "Marry the daughter of King Shun?" Okay! ”

Eleven Niang knows that he is a man who does what he says, and King Shun is detached in the royal family, how can he say that he will marry.

She couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.

Xu Lingyi chuckled in her ear: "As long as you don't dislike his daughters, they are all concubines!" ”

Eleven Niang didn't say anything for a long time.
