At the end of the play, according to the rules, the class will take a few people from the leading actors to kowtow to the people watching the play on the stage, and the people watching the play will reward these people. Usually the host gives a large portion, and the others give some at will.

The fifth lady saw that Cai Bojiao was going to return home with the two ladies, and her heart became anxious.

Mrs. Tai has not appeared until now, and she has brought the maids and mothers who can speak around her to the small courtyard, and she has no idea who is holding the reward.

There is also the third sister-in-law, Gan.

In the past, the fourth sister-in-law was in charge, but this year, after the New Year, the spirit of the fourth sister-in-law became more and more poor, so she took the initiative to hand over the affairs of the family to the third sister-in-law. At that time, the third sister-in-law couldn't help but be overjoyed, and her smile couldn't hide it. This is the first time she has hosted a family banquet, and it stands to reason that she should go all out with trepidation, how to send the Gan family and Miss Luo to fly kites, the Gan family and Miss Luo have returned, but she herself is gone......

But no matter what, he is always one of the masters of the Xu family, and he can't just be cold because the two people in charge are not there, right?

She immediately whispered to her personal maid lotus leaf, told her to hurry back to her house, opened the cage and took three hundred taels of silver to deal with the emergency. He also instructed himself not to have a personal maid Hexiang, and asked her to report to the people in the small courtyard quickly, only to say that the play in Chuntang had ended.

The two maids went away in response, and disappeared in a puff of smoke, and she made up her mind in her heart.

What happened to the fourth sister-in-law?

If she wants to say that she is sick, she has not been sick for a day or two, and she will not avoid herself.

Or is it because he has a dispute with Hou Ye?

The thought flashed, and she felt that what she thought made sense.

Who doesn't respect her husband that day, only the fourth sister-in-law seems to be polite to Hou Ye, and the food, clothing, housing and transportation are also arranged very properly, but I don't know why, she always feels that something is missing between the two. At least it's not like her and the fifth master, although you ignore me and I ignore you, but if you get better, it's uncomfortable to leave for a while......

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but blush, and heard a singing from the other side of the stage: "The Deyin class kowtows to all the ladies, grandmothers, and young ladies." ”

The fifth lady listened to a spirit, and saw Zheng Taijun, who was sitting alone on the short couch, throwing an embarrassed smile at her.

But the lotus leaf hasn't come yet!

She stepped forward with a headache and started to quarrel with the people in the Deyin class.

“…… The Zhou class master has worked hard. I listened to Wu Niang's play in the broken temple, singing tactfully and beautifully, which was very different from the previous sonorous and powerful, I don't know what the reason is? ”

Zhou Huide, who played Zhao Wuniang, knelt in the center of the stage and said respectfully: "That's a little contempt of the villain." Thinking about Wu Niang's personality, she is soft and strong. She buried her in-laws in a hemp skirt, and she was already strong and chaste. Therefore, when the temple was broken, the singing tone was tactful a lot, so that everyone knew that Wu Niang not only has a strong and chaste side, but also a gentle and docile side......"

The people in the wing room couldn't stop nodding their heads.

Mrs. Lin even asked him: "You have a loud voice and a beautiful singing voice." Don't know who to study with? "It seems to be familiar with the troupe.

Zhou Huide said: "The family teacher is little Huilan. ”

"Is it the little Huilan of the original Sanqing class?" Mrs. Lin said curiously, "I also heard his plays when I was a child. You don't sing like him? ”

Zhou Huide hurriedly said: "I used to follow my master to the north and south, and once I passed by the stele and listened to others singing the opera......"

Everyone listened to him talk, but Eleven Niang was a little absent-minded.

Mrs. Tai hasn't come back yet, and she doesn't know what's going on in the courtyard?

But don't let anything happen again?

I still want to walk out of Xu's house safely!

As she thought about it, she saw the close-fitting maid beside the fifth lady standing at the door of the wing room with a tray of red lacquer and golden begonia flowers in her hand. There were also thirty silver ingots neatly stacked on the tray.

When the fifth lady saw the lotus leaf, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief, interrupted Zhou Huide's words at the right time, and said the word "reward" in a slightly raised voice.

Zhou Huide immediately took the people of the Deyin class to thank him and fell to the ground.

The lotus leaf stepped forward and handed the tray to the little maid who did not leave a head on the side, and the little maid held it and handed it to the servant who was serving by the stage. The little guy was no more than ten years old, and the two of them carried the tray to the stage one on the left and one right.

Zhou Huide thanked him again, then got up and respectfully accepted the tray.

Zheng Taijun, Mrs. Huang and others in the wing room also rewarded one after another, and Zhou Huide thanked him again and again.

was lively, and a crisp voice came laughing: "Oh, it's still a good mother, I invited the Deyin class to come to the singing hall, but everyone was still reluctant to leave after the play was over." I've got the shad to be steamed. I'm afraid I'm going to oversteam now......" Looking at the fifth lady standing in front of the short couch, the voice was stuck in his throat.

"Where's my mother?" Her smile froze.

How is it that Danyang is here to entertain these old friends as a host...... Thinking about what happened in the kitchen again, I couldn't help but smile coldly.

Everyone only saw that the mother next to the fourth lady was ordered by the fourth lady to send two plates of peaches to everyone to taste. Mrs. Tai felt uncomfortable after taking two bites, and asked Mrs. Fifth to accompany her out. Everyone speculated that it was because of the bad stomach and the clean room...... Later, when the fifth lady came back, everyone didn't care - when people are old, they pay special attention to face, although the fifth lady is a daughter-in-law, she is also the county lord...... When I saw Eleven Niang coming in, I didn't care too much. The fourth lady is weak, and if she says a few words, she is afraid that she will be in bad spirits, so she can't stop and leave her sister there like a maid!

Since the two of them are going to the same place, it is not uncommon for them to come in together.

Now when the third lady asked, everyone was shocked to realize that Mrs. Tai had been gone for too long.

"Danyang," then Zheng Taijun said with some worry, "You accompanied Mrs. Tai out just now...... Is she okay? ”

"Mrs. Tai asked me to come back first!" The fifth lady said vaguely, "Otherwise, I'll go and see—it just so happens that the third sister-in-law is here." ”

She was also worried, why did Hexiang go for so long and didn't come back, and now that the third lady is here, someone is in charge of the overall situation, and it doesn't matter if she is not there.

But the third lady was confused, and looked at Zheng Taijun with a confused face, and then at the fifth lady.

Mrs. Huang explained: "Just now, Mrs. Huang brought some peaches for us to taste......

The third lady couldn't help but sneer: "Mrs. Tai is old, how can she eat these things." His eyes looked at the fifth lady, and he was a little blamed.

Who knew that the fifth lady listened to it with a calm face, but it made the eldest lady very uncomfortable, her brows furrowed, and she was about to defend her daughter, but when she looked up, she saw the lady walking in with a little maid's shoulder: "Old, old, eat a few peaches, and this stomach will be turned upside down." "The lotus incense sent by the fifth lady did not see it.

"Mother!" The third lady and the fifth lady ran to the eldest lady in unison.

The third lady was closer, and first helped Mrs. Tai's left hand, and the fifth lady was farther away, and took a step later to help Mrs. Tai's right hand. The two carried Mrs. Tai into the wing.

Everyone stepped forward to greet Mrs. Tai, who smiled and kept saying, "It's okay, it's okay." He said "Huh" again and said, "The play is over?" The bounty hasn't been given yet, has it? ”

The fifth lady hurriedly said: "Given, given!" ”

Mrs. Tai gently patted the back of the fifth lady's hand and said with a smile: "In that case, let's go to the flower hall - I also called someone to set off fireworks." ”

Everyone in the room answered "yes" with a smile, and hugged Mrs. Tai to the flower hall.

Mrs. Naqiao said suddenly: "Do you want to send someone to talk to the fourth lady?" It wasn't easy for her to come out once. ”

"No, no." Mrs. Tai smiled, "I went to see her just now." She was a little unwell and had just taken her medicine and rested. ”

The eldest lady exclaimed with an "ah" and said, "What's wrong with her?" ”

Mrs. Tai smiled: "She has a weak body, and there is a lot of trouble here, so she will naturally feel uncomfortable." Took some soothing medicine. No big deal. I was also afraid that she wouldn't be able to stand this toss, so I specially asked someone to take Brother Zhen to me to be my sister's companion. Let her rest in the courtyard tonight. ”

Mother and daughter are connected. No matter how good Mrs. Tai said, the eldest lady was still worried.

After hesitating for a moment, he said, "I'd better go see her!" ”

Eleven Niang found that Mrs. Tai's eyes swept quickly on everyone's faces, and said with a smile: "My in-laws handed over my daughter to me, and I love her as my own daughter, is there anything I don't worry about." What's more, there is Xiao Si watching over there. You can rest assured that you will go with me to dinner. Whether it's serving tea or pouring water, let them and their wives do their own work. As he spoke, the boss smiled with relief.

"Master Hou is here!" The eldest lady was surprised.

"Not really!" Mrs. Tai smiled brightly, "Otherwise, why would I, the mother-in-law, run over like nothing." ”

Eleven Niang couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart when she looked at it.

Mrs. Tai...... It's also amazing!

She couldn't help but look for Qiao Lianfang in the crowd.

The lights are sufficient, Miss Lin is dressed in white and wins the snow, Wu Niang is dignified and reserved, Shi Niang is lonely and arrogant and bright, Miss Tang is graceful and lovely, Miss Gan San is dignified and dignified, and Miss Gan Qi is lively and pretty, but she can't see the gentle and beautiful Qiao Lianfang.

Mrs. Tai had already taken the eldest lady's hand and walked out: "Let's go, let's go to dinner." The juniors' affairs are their own juniors' own worries. In charge of the east and west, there will never be a head......" There was a bit of joy in his tone, as if there was no trace of trouble.

The eldest lady nodded, and the group talked and laughed and went to the flower hall.

Eleven Niang was silent.

How many things do you have to go through to practice the ability of Mrs. Tai to be moody and unmoved!

The flower hall is brightly lit, and the black lacquer square table is bright enough to shine on your own shadow.

She sat at a table with Shi Niang and the two young ladies of the Gan family, and Wu Niang sat at the same table with the two young ladies Lin and Tang. Famous tea snacks, seasonal fresh vegetables, water and land delicacies are served in the same way.

Miss Lin said curiously: "Hey, where is the lotus room?" ”

Miss Tang said, "You were still walking behind me just now?" ”

Mrs. Tai's eyes narrowed slightly when she listened, and said with a smile: "Go and find it, this black light is blind, don't knock it anywhere!" ”

The third lady immediately stood up: "I'll go and see!" ”

Suddenly, I found that there were a lot of votes......
