Chapter 210: The Feast (Part II)

Mrs. Tai looked at it and sighed slightly in her heart, and then said to Xu Lingkuan with a cold face: "Your fourth sister-in-law has been running around for a day for this matter. ”

Xu Lingkuan heard a trace of guilt on his face, and muttered "Fourth sister-in-law".

Mrs. Tai had already said to Eleven Niang: "You are also tired, go and rest!" Tomorrow is the Chinese New Year's Eve, and you can catch your breath. ”

Eleven Niang smiled and responded "yes", looking at Xu Lingyi - see what else he has planned!

Xu Lingyi thought for a moment and said, "Mother, let's rest early!" I talked to Xiao Wu and dispersed. ”

Mrs. Tai knew that he was going to beat Xu Lingkuan, if it was usual, she would leave the two brothers behind, and if there was anything, she would be a peacemaker herself, but this time, she knew that she could no longer act with her feelings. Nodding heavily: "Your brother is going to talk about it." ”

Leaving Brother Chen to accompany Mrs. Tai, Xu Lingyi, Xu Lingkuan and Eleven Niang, who was holding Xu Sijie, went out together.

Amber is waiting outside the door.

Seeing everyone coming out, he immediately greeted him: "Master Hou, Fifth Master, Madam, Young Master Fengqing!" Anxiety welled up in his eyes.

Just now, Mother Du quietly took people to Banyuepan to take Feng Qing away, they didn't know what it meant, and Holly couldn't show up because she had to take care of the fifth lady, so Amber rushed over with Binju.

Eleven Niang glanced at Binju, Luyun and the others who were following Amber, and said with a smile: "I can't call Young Master Fengqing now." Hou Ye took Xu Sijie's name. Now you have to respect the fifth young master. ”

In this way, it is an acknowledgement......

Amber and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

Who knows what will happen if it's hidden like this? Now it's finally above board.

Several people bent their knees, and since then they have changed their mouths and called the fifth young master.

Xu Lingyi took Xu Lingkuan back to her yard, and Eleven Niang always felt that although Banyuepan was safe, the location was remote and very deserted. On the one hand, she instructed someone to go to Aunt Qin's side to see if the kang was burned in the place where Xu Siyu lived, and on the other hand, she asked Binju to take the child to the holly house, sent the people who served in Xu Lingkuan's study, and brought hot tea in.

When she entered the door, she heard Xu Lingyi ask unceremoniously: "...... Do you undertake? You tell me, how do you bear it? ”

"Anyway, I caused it, and I will find a way to make it clear to everyone......" Xu Lingkuan's face turned red, and he stared at Xu Lingyi with his neck straight.

"Aren't you messy enough!" Xu Lingyi saw that Xu Lingkuan looked unwilling to admit his mistake, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out, "You tell everyone clearly?" Say what? How so? Say this kid is yours? Let others think you're standing up for me? Or is this child not from the Xu family at all? Passing the buck ......"

Eleven Niang coughed softly.

The brothers followed the prestige.

Xu Lingkuan's face was full of shame, and he muttered "Fourth sister-in-law".

Xu Lingyi's face was slightly pale: "The child has been arranged!" ”

"I want to temporarily put it in the place where Brother Yu lived...... "Eleven Niang served tea, briefly talked about the arrangements for Xu Sijie, and then glanced at Xu Lingyi, "It's just that what a few aunts say, we still have to discuss and discuss Master Hou!" ”

Xu Lingyi turned around and entered the warm pavilion in the study with Eleven Niang.

"What's the matter?"

Of course, he didn't believe that Eleven Niang was discussing himself with his aunt what to say.

Eleven Niang smiled: "I saw that the Hou Ye trained the fifth master to be stunned." Could it be that Hou Ye usually talks to his colleagues like this? ”

Xu Lingyi was stunned.

"Of course not......" hesitated for a moment, and then said, "He's my brother!" ”

One of the common mistakes people make is to be harsh, harsh, and demanding of someone close to them than they are to strangers.

Seeing that Xu Lingyi had an understanding, Eleven Niang smiled. said: "Do you want the concubine to help the kettle wine?" In this winter, it's good to warm up. ”

"Okay......" Xu Lingyi replied a little hesitantly.

People's habits can't be changed overnight, and it's a good thing to be willing to try!

Eleven Niang smiled and went out to tell the maid to help with a few side dishes in the kitchen, warmed a pot of Jinhua wine and went in, and went back to the house by herself.

Amber is waiting for her to come back and show her.

"Aunt Qin didn't burn the kang over there, I heard that the fifth young master was going to live in, and she was leading the maid to clean up the house."

"Oh!" Eleven Niang was a little surprised by Aunt Qin's obedience, "She heard that Hou Ye adopted her adopted son, didn't she say anything?" ”

Hearing her say this, Amber also felt a little strange.

When I first saw the child, I was stunned; When Du's mother took the child to Mrs. Tai, she was even more frightened, afraid that Mrs. Tai would blame Mrs. Eleven for helping Hou Ye hide from her old man; Later, I heard that Hou Ye finally adopted the child as an adopted son and raised it at home, and complained for Eleven Niang, feeling that the responsibility is heavy, and it should be taught well, in case there is a mistake, it will all become Eleven Niang's fault...... My mood is so complicated, not to mention Aunt Qin, who involves her own interests.

"I was stunned," Amber recalled...... "and then she smiled and told the maid to clean up...... I also asked if I wanted the old clothes that the second young master wore when he was a child......"

"I also asked if you wanted the old clothes that the second young master wore when he was a child?" Eleven Niang groaned, "It seems that she is quite clear about the ins and outs of the Fifth Young Master. ”

This sentence was too wide-ranging, and Amber was not easy to answer, so she changed the topic with a smile: "Madam, now that the fifth young master has his own courtyard, do you want to add a few more rooms to serve?" Sister Holly is not young and wants to get married at any time. You have to plan ahead! ”

If it weren't for Xu Sijie's incident, her marriage would have been decided a long time ago.

"It's almost the New Year, and there is no suitable candidate for the time being." Shi Niang smiled and nodded, "I'll pick someone after the Lantern Festival." Settle it before she gets married. ”

Amber responded, and a little maid came in and said, "The three aunts have come to greet Madame." ”

Eleven Niang smiled slightly, and instructed Amber: "Bring the fifth young master over, and let a few aunts recognize it." ”

Amber left in response, and Eleven Niang then instructed the little maid: "Please invite the three aunts in!" Then he sat down on the chair of the master in front of the middle hall.

At the forefront was Aunt Wen, smiling and full of joy. Aunt Qin followed behind her, her eyes were low, she was tiptoeing, and she looked honest and honest. Qiao Lianfang, as usual, had a straight back, her head slightly raised, and she was a little proud of her reserve.

The three of them saluted, and Eleven Niang let them sit on the Taishi chair on the side.

After the little maid served tea, Aunt Wen immediately smiled and said, "Sister, I heard that Master Hou hugged a young master and raised it under Aunt Tong's name, but is it true?" ”

She also confessed.

Eleven Niang said with a smile: "Aunt Tong entrusted her dream to Hou Ye, and Hou Ye took the child and raised it in her name. He took the name of the heir commandment, and ranked fifth. Tomorrow when the ancestors are worshipped, it will be written on the family tree. ”

As she spoke, she looked at Aunt Qin and Qiao Lianfang's expressions.

Aunt Qin listened with a smile on her face, but her fingers were twisted together, looking a little uneasy;

A trace of astonishment flashed in Qiao Lianfang's eyes, and then she listened sideways, looking very concerned.

"Oops!" Aunt Wen looked happy, as if she had raised a son under her name, "Aunt Tong is really blessed." It's been more than ten years, and Hou Ye still remembers. However, it is still my sister's leniency that she has this blessing......"

Eleven Niang smiled and listened to Aunt Wen praise herself, but the corner of her eyes did not leave the other two people in the house.

Aunt Qin's smile began to be a little reluctant, but Qiao Lianfang's face changed slightly, and she lowered her head and pondered.

It's kind of interesting!

Eleven smiled at the corners of his mouth.

Aunt Wen has always been well-informed, and she knows that it is not strange. Qiao Lianfang obviously just heard about it. So where did Aunt Qin's news come from? What is it about her that she is disturbed? Speaking of which, Aunt Tong is her sister in one room......

While thinking about it, she casually dealt with Aunt Wen: "...... Serving since childhood, the love is there. When I was young, I didn't feel that I was busy with this and that. When the days were quiet, I remembered how good it was to ask for warmth in the cold. It's the age of flowers, how can you not let Hou Ye worry about it......"

Aunt Qin's smile was stiff, and Qiao Lianfang clenched her fists.

The atmosphere in the room gradually became a little low, and it made people's hearts irritated.

Fortunately, the arrival of amber broke the solemnity.

"Madam, the fifth young master is here!" She walked in with a smile and Xu Sijie in her arms.

All eyes of the people in the room fell on him.

He looked around with a pair of big phoenix eyes, as if he was looking for something.

"Oops! It's really beautiful. Aunt Wen greeted him, touched his little hand, and took out a pair of small red gold bracelets from her sleeves, "Come, Fifth Young Master, this is for you to wear and play." ”

Xu Sijie looked at Aunt Wen, her eyes full of vigilance.

Amber hurriedly said, "Fifth Young Master, this is Aunt Wen. She gives you something, and you can say 'thank you' to her. ”

Xu Si was silent, blinking his big eyes and looking at Eleven Niang

Eleven Niang smiled and instructed him: "Say 'thank you' to Aunt Wen." ”

"Thank you!" He thanked Aunt Wen in a low voice, his voice was crisp and tactful, and it was pleasant to the ear.

Aunt Wen lost her mind slightly, and only after a moment did she whisper: "What a good voice." ”

At that time, Amber had already seen Aunt Qin and Qiao Lianfang with Xu Sijie.

Aunt Qin gave a silver collar with a ruyi lock as a welcome gift, but Qiao Lianfang was unprepared, looking at the child's phoenix eyes and saying a little dejectedly: "...... Wait for the embroidery to be delivered. ”

After meeting, what to say was also explained. Eleven Niang asked Amber to hug Xu Sijie, and then said a few words to several aunts with different looks, then served tea, and then went to the study.

Because the two brothers had a heart-to-heart conversation, they sent those who served in the house, leaving only a small servant to wait under the eaves.

The weather was cold, he was stamping his feet there with his hands on his sleeves, and when he saw Eleven Niang coming, he hurriedly stood up straight, and was about to pass through, Eleven Niang had already made a silent gesture towards him, and then asked Luyun to reward her with a few pennies, lifted the curtain, and tiptoed in.

There was only a melon-shaped sheep's horn palace lamp lit on the kang near the window, and when I looked through the falling flower cover, I couldn't see it very clearly, and I only heard Xu Lingyi's voice: "...... If it weren't for your fourth sister-in-law's temperament, how could the matter be solved so smoothly! ”

Is Xu Lingyi talking about her?

Eleven Niang was stunned.

She didn't expect Xu Lingyi to comment on herself like this in front of her younger brother......

Hey, hey, keep asking for votes......
