Chapter 589: Yu Gui (Medium)
Now that she has made a decision, Eleven Niang is ready to discuss with Mrs. Tai who to invite to propose, but before that, she first went to see the second lady.
“…… Mrs. Gao's words are subtle, and Mrs. Xiang has never made a clear statement, I am afraid that it is a misunderstanding, so I want to ask my second sister-in-law to help me ask for a letter. If our family brother really has such a blessing and makes his niece engaged, it is exactly what he wants! ”
She was afraid that Mrs. Xiang would be easy to repeat and need someone to guarantee her.
The second lady's face turned red, thinking of Mrs. Xiang's dishonesty before, and thinking of Mrs. Gao's silent flattery to Eleven Niang during the banquet yesterday, her expression looked a little embarrassed.
Eleven Niang is going to vouch for herself!
She stood up a little ashamed: "I'll go back to my parents' house!" ”
"Then there is the second sister-in-law of Lao!" Eleven Niang also stood up with a smile, "Brother Yu'er will go back to Le'an in a few days." He is not young, if the marriage can be settled earlier, he also has a person around him who knows the hot and the cold, and the Hou Ye and I don't have to worry about him. ”
The second lady nodded and sent Eleven Niang out of Shaohua Courtyard.
Eleven Niang went to Mrs. Tai: "...... I asked my second sister-in-law to go back and ask for a letter. When the time comes, please ask Grandma Huang San to help you propose. What do you think? ”
"It's up to you!" Mrs. Tai didn't ask much.
Over there, Mrs. Xiang sent off the second lady and immediately went to Mrs. Gao.
“…… My sister-in-law, opening your mouth is a lesson. What else do you want me not to do like last time, otherwise a little reputation of our master will be ruined in my hands. What did you hear her say? I have been married to my lord for more than 20 years, which one is not me inside and out? There was some righteous indignation.
As if fire and water are incompatible, it is no surprise that Mrs. Gao is dissatisfied with Mrs. Xiang's involvement with the second lady. In a few words, she got to the point.
"So, did the Xu family agree to this family business?"
Mrs. Xiang nodded: "Let our aunt and grandmother come to ask for a sound." ”
Mrs. Gao listened and thought for a long time, and suddenly stood up: "Let's go, let's go see your eldest brother." Let him find a way to ask Jin Hanlin's wife from the Hanlin Academy to help him go to the Xu family to propose marriage - if I remember correctly, when the fourth wife of the Xu family got married, the Luo family invited Jin Hanlin to make Baoshan. The relationship between her mother's family and Jin Hanlin must be extraordinary. ”
In this way, wouldn't everyone know that this family affair was initiated by their family?
Mrs. Xiang only felt that her brain was "buzzing", and she didn't hear Mrs. Gao's words clearly at all.
"Mention, mention, dear?" She looked at Mrs. Gao dumbfounded, "I, our family is going to propose?" ”
Mrs. Gao couldn't help glaring at Mrs. Xiang: "Since people don't care about the past, you should also show some gestures." Otherwise, even if he marries the Xu family, he is afraid that he will have a mustard in his heart. You can't marry Rou Ne and be done, no matter if her life is good or not, right? ”
Mrs. Xiang gritted her teeth when she heard this: "Okay, I'll go and ask Jin Hanlin's wife to go to Xu's house to propose marriage." Jin Hanlin has a good personal relationship with our master, and he doesn't need his eldest brother to come forward......"
She did such a humiliating thing, could she let her mother's eldest brother also whisper together!
Mrs. Gao said "um" with satisfaction when she heard this, and told her in a low voice: "Be tactful, be sincere, don't miss Roune's lifelong ...... for the sake of momentary anger."
Mrs. Xiang nodded again and again, hurried home, prepared a twelve-colored gift box, and went to Jin Hanlin's house the next day.
Although it was a little strange that the Xiang family took the initiative, but thinking that the Xiang family and the Xu family were originally in-laws, they didn't care, and they agreed with each other, and said that they would go to the Xu family together the next day to propose marriage.
Mrs. Xiang breathed a sigh of relief.
When I got home, I ushered in my personal mother who was full of excitement: "Madam, the Xu family invited the third grandmother of the Yongchang Hou Mansion to propose." ”
Mrs. Xiang was stunned.
Mrs. Gao sighed when she found out, a little worried about her sister-in-law. Afraid that she would be laughed at by others if she acted inferiorly, she asked matchmakers, exchange stickers, and Xiaoding to help on the side.
Eleven Niang didn't know Mrs. Gao's thoughts. I only felt that the marriage with the Xiang family was going unexpectedly smoothly, whether it was the dowry or the small fixed heart tea, the Xiang family did not put forward any additional requirements, that is, the most worried about the marriage period, the Xiang family was also full of promises - Xu Lingyi was afraid that Xu Siyu would be distracted, and wanted to marry again after the autumn of next year, but considering that Xiang Roune will be nineteen years old next year, I was afraid that the Xiang family would not agree, so I asked Huang San's grandmother to discuss, but the Xiang family only said "It should be so", and set Xu Siyu's wedding date on the second day of October. Master Xiang even sent a staff member to bring a letter to Xu Lingyi, euphemistically expressing his apologies for Mrs. Xiang's failure to make an appointment last time.
It just so happened that there was news in Cangzhou that Sister Zhen gave birth to a big fat boy weighing six pounds.
Mrs. Tai was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, and fed a hawthorn to Brother Jin'er, who was playing the flop with Brother Xu: "When the time comes, there will be one more person to celebrate Brother Jin'er's birthday." Then he fed another one to Brother Xu'er, and said to Eleven Niang: "Since you want to get married, the new house must be prepared in advance." I think the yard vacated by the third child is very good. Spacious, and close to the east corner door, easy to get in and out. Just renovate and renovate. ”
Eleven Niang was trying to discuss this matter with Mrs. Tai.
After becoming a family, naturally you can't live in the outer courtyard. In the inner courtyard, only the former residence of Yuan Niang and the courtyard of the third master are empty. Yuan Niang's former residence is the same as when Yuan Niang was alive, she placed her usual belongings and placed a little maid to clean it. Eleven Niang is ready to hand over Xu Si to him when he is older. As for the courtyard where the third master used to live, although the third master moved out, after all, he didn't make his words clear, as a concubine, she couldn't use the third master's yard. So I want to give Sister Zhen's original Lijingxuan to Xu Siyu as a new house. I didn't expect Mrs. Tai to like the third master's original yard.
Still, that's fine. Take advantage of this opportunity to straighten out the relationship with the third room, and in the future, everyone will be in each courtyard and have their own lives, and there will be a lot less contradictions, maybe the relationship will be much better than now.
"The concubine also feels good!" Eleven Niang said, "I don't know if the third sister-in-law still has anything to put there." I'm just afraid to say hello in advance! ”
With the third lady's person, since she moved to Mitsui Hutong to live for a long time, how could she leave something here.
Mrs. Tai understood what she meant, and said with a smile: "When she comes to say hello tomorrow, I'll ask her!" ”
As he was talking, a little maid ran in: "Congratulations to Mrs. Tai, Mrs. Hexi, the eldest young grandmother has just given birth to a young master." ”
"Oops!" Mrs. Tai hurriedly instructed Du's mother, "Reward, reward!" Stretched out his hand again to let Eleven Niang help, "Let's go and see!" The joy was palpable.
Eleven Niang was also happy for Fang's family.
A large group of people went to Mitsui Hutong with joy.
The child had just been born for a few hours, his skin was red, his eyes were closed, and his eyebrows and eyes had not grown.
Brother Jin and Brother Xu scrambled to the side of the bed to watch, one went to touch the child's head, the other went to poke the child's face, Eleven Niang and Mrs. Wu were busy hugging their respective children.
The third lady picked up her grandson and showed it to Mrs. Tai, and her expression was quite proud: "The child was born with six catties and eight taels. ”
Mrs. Tai nodded with a smile, held the child in her arms and looked at it for a long time, and said to Fang Shi who was on the bed: "This child looks like Brother Qin!" ”
Fang smiled shyly.
Mrs. Tai asked, "Can you send someone to report the news from your mother's house?" ”
According to custom, the people of the mother's family can only come to see the child when they are washing three.
Fang Shi hurriedly said: "I have already sent someone to give it!" ”
Mrs. Tai talked to the third lady about the child's baptism.
The third lady was there happily talking about who she wanted to invite.
Mrs. Tai quietly turned the topic to Xu Siyu's marriage: "...... I will only start to paint the house next summer, and there is no hurry, you can go over and have a look when you have time one day, and pack up all the things that should be packed! ”
The room suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes fell on the third lady.
The third lady's smile froze on her face, and she moved her foot uneasily, and answered "yes" in a low voice.
* * * * * *
When I got home, it was already the beginning of the day.
Xu Lingyi asked her, "How does the child look?" Like Brother Qin or like his daughter-in-law? ”
"The child is too young to see who he looks like!" Eleven Niang smiled and was served by the maids to change clothes, "However, it looks very strong...... Mother thinks she looks like Brother Qin! ”
The two were talking and laughing, and Aunt Wen came over.
Seeing Xu Lingyi in the house, she was a little surprised.
"The slave maid heard that the second young master will leave for Cangzhou in two days, and she made a few small clothes, and wants the second young master to help bring them over."
"You just let the maid hand it over to Mother Song." Eleven Niang said, "When the time comes, Mother Song will go to Cangzhou with the second young master." ”
Aunt Wen smiled and retreated.
Eleven Niang was secretly strange.
Xu Siyu took Xu Sizhen to Cangzhou to send a full moon gift on behalf of the Xu family, she had already told Aunt Wen, and asked Aunt Wen to give it to Mother Song if she wanted to bring something. Why did Aunt Wen make a special trip to ask again about this matter.
She couldn't help but glance at Xu Lingyi.
Or, what is Aunt Wen bad to say in front of Xu Lingyi?
The next day, when Aunt Wen and Qiao Lianfang came to greet her, she left Aunt Wen to speak.
"Madam," Aunt Wen's face turned red, looking very unnatural, "In two days it will be my bedtime, I want to invite Master Hou to sit with me!" ”
Eleven Niang was taken aback.
She didn't expect to encounter such a thing...... I feel embarrassed...... Nodding his head and saying, "I'll tell Master Hou", he served tea.
Aunt Wen looked at Shi Niang's somewhat uncomfortable look, stopped talking, bowed her head and bowed, and retreated.
Greet Mrs. Tai and come back, Eleven Niang told the truth.
Xu Lingyi was a little strange, thought about it, and said, "Then I'll go over and take a look!" "I went directly to Aunt Wen.
After a while, the maid from Aunt Wen's side came over and said, "Madam, Master Hou said, let you rest early, don't wait for the door!" ”
Eleven Niang answered, her heart was in a mess, and she went to Brother Jin'er's warm pavilion.
Brother Jin was lying there listening to Ah Jin's story.
When he saw his mother come in, he jumped up: "Mother, tell a story, tell a story!" ”
Eleven Niang hugged the child with a smile, opened the album that Xu Lingyi drew for Brother Jin'er, read it word by word, and her heart slowly calmed down.
