The guests were sent off and the house was quiet.

Eleven Niang stayed on the pillow to watch the nurse Gu take a bath for her son. Hongwen, Ah Jin, and Yumei were on the side, helping to twist the handkerchief or helping to carry the clothes.

Mother Wan took the medicinal soup and walked over.

"It's going to take a few days." Eleven Niang drank it all.

Mother Wan smiled: "If the bad blood is gone, you can stop the medicine." ”

Over there, Gu's mother's body was wrapped and sent over.

Eleven Niang kissed her son's little face, tucked the corners of the quilt, and put it in her quilt. Gu's mother stopped talking again.

It stands to reason that the child should sleep with the nurse. Can be these days. As if she did not know such rules, the child slept with her while she rested on a beautiful couch beside the bed. Eleven Niang just didn't see it.

It's been three days, and she's sure she can't breastfeed her son herself. As a mother, if she doesn't strive to spend more time with her child, she is afraid that the child's memory will be full of the smell of the nurse. She just didn't see it.

Xifang and Qiuyu both got the hint of bluffing, knowing Shi Niang's intentions, one smiled and helped Gu's mother hug the cover and came in, and the other reminded Gu's mother: "It's not early, just rest after some freshening!" ”

Gu's mother didn't dare to say a word, so she bowed and retreated.

Mother Wan, who had never retired, smiled when she saw it: "Madame is too hard like this, I have a sentence. I don't know if to talk about it or not. ”

Eleven Niang is not a person who likes to be embarrassed, so she followed her words and said: "Mother Wan has something to say." ”

Mother Wan smiled reservedly: "I see that there is no one in charge of the sixth young master's house, you are working hard." I just want to recommend you a mom who is in charge! "Speaking, I didn't wait for Eleven Niang to ask, and said straightly, "As the saying goes, a virtuous person does not avoid relatives." My third daughter-in-law, 25 years old this year, is fair and dignified, and her behavior is clean and neat, and everyone in the neighborhood praises her.

If Madame can see it, I'll bring it in and show Madame someday......"

Eleven Niang was very surprised.

I didn't expect Mother Wan to recommend her daughter-in-law.

She thought about it for a moment, and decided that this would be good.

Mother Wan is old, and she won't be able to be an errand in two years. I heard that her sons are honest, and she risked such a big risk to recommend her daughter-in-law, and it is estimated that she is also taking risks to find a way out for the future life of the family.

"Then when I'm free, my mother will bring me in and have a look!"

Mother Wan was overjoyed, thanked and thanked, and retreated.

Amber couldn't help frowning: "This Mother Wan, speaking of which, she is still a person close to Mrs. Tai, how can she not know the severity like this." She came directly to you like this and begged, but you didn't agree, and you poured Mrs. Tai's face, you promised, what if the person is not suitable? I think it's better to just reply when the time comes. Anyway, it's offending people - it's not like people are not good at that time, and then they will be sent out of the house or something. It's better to refuse at the beginning. ”

"I haven't seen anyone, so I don't have to rush to conclusions." Eleven Niang said with a smile: "Mother Wan is in a hurry like this, it can be seen that she is determined to succeed in this errand." I also thought about it carefully, and the mother in charge was so undecided, I don't know how many people made up their minds. Today, Mother Wan had the courage to come to me and say, if Mrs. Tai, Mrs. Second or Mrs. Fifth also have someone who wants to recommend, should we agree or not? It's better to use Mother Wan's daughter-in-law. As long as she listens to help! ”

Eleven Niang's ultimate goal is to keep her son by her side, although Wan's mother is valued by Mrs. Tai, in the final analysis, it is because she has some experience in taking care of pregnant women and mothers, and she can't talk about the housekeeper who has real power.

Amber nodded.

Eleven Niang asked Xu Lingyi: "...... Is Hou Ye still in Half Moon Pan? "Baptism three ceremonies, full moon, aunt and mother do the table, it is a play of female dependents, all the female guests come, Xu Lingyi avoided half moon in the morning.

"Master Hou is still in the half-moon pan." Amber laughed, "I didn't come out for a day today. ”

may still be in confinement, Eleven Niang always feels very tired. gave Amber a few words, "Master Hou is back, you serve carefully", and slept with the child.

It was the crisp autumn and the chrysanthemums were full of flowers, Xu Lingyi drew a picture of chrysanthemums and returned to the house. I saw the dim light of the transept falling on the blue stone bricks through the window. There is warmth in the haze. He couldn't help but turn his steps and went to the ear room.

It was Xi Fang who was on duty, and she was taken aback when she saw Xu Lingyi, but Xu Lingyi signaled her to keep quiet and entered the house lightly.

Gu's mother just came, and she hasn't figured out the character of Eleven Niang, and she lives in a room like this, where can she really sleep. When he heard the movement, he got up, and he stayed by Xifang nervously. I saw Xu Lingyi sitting on the edge of the bed, carefully looked at Shi Niang and Jin'er for a long time, helped the two of them tuck the corners of the quilt, and then got up and went out.

Early the next morning, the emperor and the queen sent their chamberlains to ask about Brother Jin'er's condition. Xu Lingyi thought that if it wasn't for the emperor's kindness that day, he immediately sent Imperial Doctor Wu out of the palace with him, how could he leave the palace so quickly. Simply go to the palace and thank you. Out of the palace gate and met King Shun and Yu Yiqing and Jin Hanlin, everyone hadn't seen each other for a long time, and several people went to Chunxi Tower together.

Mother Wan brought her third daughter-in-law over.

As she said, this daughter-in-law seems to be a shrewd and capable person.

Eleven Niang asked her with a smile: "Have you ever worked as an errand in the house before?" ”

"I have been a second-class maid in the outer courtyard, and I am in charge of serving tea and water in the flower hall."

"Then do you know what is the most important thing for a mother who is in charge?"

Before coming, Mother Wan had already told her repeatedly, and she said without thinking: "Obey orders, be modest and obedient." ”

Eleven Niang bowed slightly, half admonished, half pointed: "You have to remember this sentence." Then let Amber lead the daughter-in-law of the Wan family to Mrs. Tai, which can be regarded as a matter of settlement.

Things went so smoothly, Mother Wan was naturally overjoyed. After waiting for Mrs. Tai's "can", Eleven Niang gave her daughter-in-law five days to arrange the affairs of the family. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law thanked each other again and again, and a small servant ran in: "Madam, Yuhang has a letter." ”

Niu Yiniang was waiting, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Bring it in." ”

Wan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law took the opportunity to retreat.

The letter was written by Luo Zhenxing, and the letter said that Yuyao was thousands of miles away from Yanjing, and after three books and six ceremonies, he didn't want to set a marriage date for half a year, let alone talk about marriage. There are still some things to deal with at home, and he won't be able to leave until mid-November. After receiving the letter, Luo Zhensheng and his sixth aunt took the twelve mothers into Beijing and got married in Gongxian Hutong. When the time comes, let Eleven Niang take care of it more.

Eleven Niang counted the days: "In this way, the fourth brother and the sixth aunt should go to Amber in the next two days and said with a smile: "Shall we talk to the third master, and the third master can clean up the bowstring alley." And Mrs. Zhou there. Raise your head to marry a girl. Bow your head to pick up your daughter-in-law. Mrs. Zhou got the letter, so she could talk to the prince of Zhennan Hou so that she could ask for a wedding date. ”

At the beginning, the marriage of Twelve Niang invited the man to invite the prince of the town, and the woman invited Yu Yiqing to be the marryman.

Seeing Amber's thoughtfulness, Eleven Niang smiled and said, "I'll leave this matter to you!" ”

When I came back in the evening, Xu Lingyi came back, and it was the beginning of Hai.

There was a faint scent of sandalwood wafting through the courtyard.

It's not the inferior sandalwood mixed with agarwood, it's the best South China Sea ambergris.

Xu Lingyi frowned slightly. This is the time.,Eleven Niang is not a person who worships Buddha.。。 … He winked at Linbo. Lin Bo also smelled the fragrance of plants, he thought of Aunt Qin's incident a few days ago, his face changed slightly, and he followed the incense.

"Master Hou," he quickly folded back, "the fragrance is coming from the East Courtyard. ”

Xu Lingyi thought for a while: "Go and see!" ”

Lin Bo took the lantern from Xiao Chef's hand, motioned for them to stay where they were, and went to the East Courtyard with Xu Lingyi.

In the long alley, someone set up a small incense table and set up an incense burner, and was taking refuge and worshipping towards the west.

At this time, it is the middle of the month, and the moonlight is bright. Because he turned his back to them, he couldn't see who it was, but he felt that his posture was very thin, and his manners were very elegant, but he wore a beautiful blue armor that the maids were used to wearing...... Lin Bo stepped forward and grabbed the man's hand, and said in a deep voice, "Who doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, ...... here?"

Without saying a word, the man raised his head in surprise, revealing a face that was full of anger and anger.

Lin Boru held the hot potato, let go of his hand abruptly, took a few steps back, and shouted "Aunt Yang" in surprise.

Yang was even more surprised than them, trembling with fright, twisting his body slightly, and kneeling in front of Xu Lingyi, "Hou, Master Hou......

Xu Lingyi, who was standing under the pink wall, half of his face was exposed to the moonlight, and half of his face was hidden in the shadows, looking obscure: "What are you doing?" ”

"The slave maid heard that the sixth young master is not good two days ago," Yang's voice was soft, with a slight trembling sound, crisp as touching porcelain in this quiet moonlight, "The slave maid made a wish." Today, I deliberately set up an incense case here in the dead of night to make a vow. She raised her head, her eyes like water, "I didn't expect to collide with Master Hou, it's all the slave's fault." ”

Xu Lingyi didn't make a sound, looked at it quietly for a while, and said in a low voice: "It's too late, don't do it again in the future!" ”

Yang Shi hurriedly lowered his head in response, and then raised his head, Xu Mingyi walked out of the hall, only to see a piece of floating clothes.

She hurriedly shouted to the little maid to collect the incense case, only to find that the vest was wet. Heart-deep coolness.

Within two days, Luo Zhensheng and others arrived in Beijing, and brought a little guest to Yingniang, who was one year old in 25 days.

"Oh, speaking of which, our Yingniang and Brother Jin are both born in the tenth year." Grandma Luo Si hugged Brother Jin'er, I don't know how happy she was, "Yu Hang hasn't gotten the letter yet, right?" If I knew this, I should have traveled for a few days overnight, maybe I could catch up with Brother Jin'er's baptism? ”

Eleven Niang touched Yingniang, who was standing on the edge of her bed: "Everything is okay at home?" I heard my eldest brother say that there is an industry to dispose of, so I can't come until the middle of the month. What industry to dispose of? ”

Grandma Luo Si's smile was slightly stiff, and she quickly showed her face as if she was too peaceful: "I don't know the specifics-you know, your fourth brother and I are idlers!" The last sentence is quite self-joking, which makes the atmosphere in the room more lively.
