"Madame Li usually has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace.

Shi Niang thought that Xu Lingyi had entered the palace, and asked the little maid to invite Mrs. Li to sit in the flower hall, and called the Zhao steward from the department: "What happened to the family of General Li in Fujian......

Steward Zhao said respectfully: "I heard that General Li surrounded and suppressed civilians as Japanese robbers, and then reported his military exploits to the military department, and was discovered by Lord Jiang. The emperor was furious, and the day before yesterday, he had quietly gone south with the Qin mission and escorted General Li back to Beijing. Counting the days, the Qincha should have arrived in Fujian......"

Mr. Li's courage was also too great.

Eleven Niang couldn't help frowning.

It seems that I am afraid that Li Ji's future is worrying.

With a bottom in her heart, she went to the flower hall to meet Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li didn't mention anything about General Li either. only said that it was almost the New Year, "I knew that Eleven Niang grew up in Fujian since she was a child, so she brought some Fujian specialties over." Then asked about Xu Siyu's marriage: "...... has outstanding character, and there is a mother-in-law like you, I think this door-to-door matchmaker has broken the threshold......"

The Li family has always emphasized that concubines are not allowed in their own family, and mothers are naturally willing to marry their daughters into such a family, but mothers-in-law may not be willing to marry such a daughter-in-law. Therefore, the eldest son of the Li family quickly chose a girl from a wealthy family to be his daughter-in-law before Li Wu got married.

When Eleven Niang thought of this, and thought of Mr. Zhao's words just now, she immediately became vigilant, and blocked her words first: "There are many people who say kiss." And they're all close friends on weekdays, so I'm not in a hurry, I want to pick them up slowly......"

Mrs. Li smiled and nodded: "Yes." After all, the second young master is the eldest son of the Hou Ye, and he can't ......be sloppy," he said, and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, my wife and I are also familiar with each other, and my temperament and my wife should also know that she likes to go straight and will not beat around the bush."

Can't I know if the marriage of the second young master of your family has been decided? "There is no ...... yet" This kind of thing can't be hidden, Eleven Niang admitted, but said, "The main thing is that there are three family choices, and you have to wait for Hou Ye to take a closer look before you can decide......"

When Mrs. Li heard this, she leaned over and looked at her with a smile: "Since you haven't decided yet, I will recommend myself - you see, how my eldest daughter ......"

Sure enough, the idea of marriage!

Eleven Niang secretly sighed in her heart and said with a smile: "Miss Li is outstanding in appearance and lively in personality, if she can talk to our family brother, what else can she say." However, you also know that these things in our family are decided by Master Hou. What Mrs. Li said, "I have to discuss it with Master Hou......"

"This is a big deal, so naturally I have to discuss it with Master Hou...... Mrs. Li knew that this matter would not be possible for a while, so she smiled twice, and said, "Then I will wait for the news of Mrs. ......", and then got up and said goodbye.

When Xu Lingyi came back from the palace, he brought back two baskets of citrus, and took out a box for Shi Niang: "The queen's mother rewarded ......"

Shi Niang opened the box, and there were five hairpins with agarwood incense, four of which were bamboo, and one was carved with a lotus.

She asked Zhu Xiang to give the citrus evenly to each room, and sent the lotus hairpin to Sister Zhen'er, and the other four were divided by the four brothers of Xu Siyu. Then he told Xu Lingyi about Mrs. Li's intention.

"No......" Xu Lingyi didn't think about it, and immediately said, "When you become a general soldier, you want to be a squire, and when you become a squire, you want to be a scholar...... With such relatives, we don't want to be peaceful in our lives, maybe we will end up being dragged down by them......"

"I don't understand the concubine...... Eleven Niang smiled and helped Xu Lingyi change her clothes, "Just tell Hou Ye, let Hou Ye have a number in his heart......"

Xu Lingyi listened to it and groaned: "Miss Li, is older than Brother Yu'er, right?" Eleven Niang nodded: "The eldest is two or three years old......"

"Then tell Mrs. Li, we told Brother Yu'er to tell his fate, and said that Brother Yu'er can't marry a girl older than himself as a daughter-in-law......" Xu Lingyi said, "Bring this matter back to ......"

Eleven Niang smiled and responded to "......".

Xu Lingyi said: "You are also busy these days, and when the New Year is over, we will make a good calculation of the marriage ...... of my brother" and then talk about Sister Zhen'er: "Next year is the New Year, and the Spring Festival will be held." The eldest aunt will go to Beijing to participate in the martial arts. You should prepare some clothes and food in advance, and send them over when the time comes......"

Eleven Niang thought of Qian Ming: "Fifth brother-in-law, I have to go and see it......"

The two of them talked about trivial matters at home. The next day, Mrs. Li came, and Eleven Niang rejected Mrs. Li according to Xu Lingyi's words.

Master Li was very disappointed, and took Eleven Niang's hand and cried: "Let's tell you the truth." I'm afraid that the matter of our master will spread to the capital, and my daughter's marriage will not be settled......" and then cried and told Eleven Niang about Li Zongbing, "It was recommended by Hou Ye at the beginning, and now I ask Hou Ye to help come forward to say hello to the military department......" looked at Eleven Niang with tears in his eyes.

Eleven Niang felt that Mr. Li was like this, and it was not worth helping him at all.

She refused directly: "Master Hou is the most annoying thing for women to take care of these things." I'm afraid I won't be able to help much......"

Mrs. Li begged people everywhere these days and ran into walls everywhere, but she was the first one to refuse directly like Eleven Niang. She was slightly startled and cried even louder.

Eleven Niang always gritted her teeth and did not agree, and finally Mrs. Li left with a little resentment in her eyes.

She was a little frightened, and sighed with Xu Lingyi: "Even if you help her thousands of times, if you don't help her once, you will not talk about it, but you will still remember ......."

"Don't take these things to heart......" Xu Lingyi comforted her, she wanted to hold a grudge, just remember it, but it's a pity that Ji was dragged down by her father.

Eleven Niang disagreed: "Is it a drag, or is he involved, I'm afraid to say ......."

"The behavior of the parents still has a great impact on the children...... Xu Lingyi explained what he said about "even ......", "otherwise, how can there be a saying that the upper sorghum is not correct and the lower sorghum is crooked......"

That's right, too.

Eleven Niang sighed.

Within a few days, the news of General Li Bing's crime gradually spread, and everyone said anything, but they jointly ridiculed the family rule of General Li Bing's family of "not accepting ......": ...... "turned out to be cowardly in order to gain fame for himself." ”

Eleven Niang's attention is on Shandong.

Qi Niang wrote to "say that she followed Wu Niang's teaching, and to see which family danced the happiest in the succession, she accepted the son of that family as an heir." On December 24, the Chinese New Year's Eve will open the ancestral hall and hold a succession ceremony. Let her tell the fifth lady.

Finally, I went through the step.

In the future, even if Qi Niang gives birth to a child, the inheritance of the heir is also before this child.

She showed the letter to the Fifth Lady.

The fifth lady giggled: "Qi Niang, don't pour the film halfway, otherwise, she will only let this child offer incense after a hundred years......"

While the two were talking, a little maid ran over: "Madam, the mother who sent the New Year's gift in Cangzhou came in to greet you......

Eleven Niang resigned from the fifth lady, sacrificed to the king of the stove, and posted a new charm "sweeping dust...... In the blink of an eye, it was the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve. After the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Xu Lingyi, Xu Lingyi, Xu Siqin, and Xu Siyu were talking in the house, while the second lady and the Fang family accompanied Mrs. Tai, and the eleventh lady and the fifth lady hugged Brother Jin and Brother Xu'er under the eaves to watch Xu Sijian, Xu Sijian and Xu Sijie take their own personal little houses to set off fireworks in the yard.

The red lantern illuminated a red light, the fire trees and silver flowers bloomed at night, and the days of Xufu were like this worldly scene, rich, peaceful, and peaceful.

On the first day of the new year, he entered the palace to congratulate the emperor and the emperor on the new year, and in the afternoon, he began to pay New Year's greetings to his home and did not stop until the tenth day of the new year.

Xu Siqin's uncle came to visit suddenly.

“…… When the child is older, it is time to plan for the future...... "He was sitting on the Taishi chair steadily, blowing the tea leaves floating on the teacup and said, "What my brother-in-law means, let me find a good gentleman for the child, go to Mitsui Hutong to study behind closed doors, and in the future, I will also take the Jinshi and raise people, and I will shine on the lintel for the Xu family." I haven't been looking for Mr. before, but then I got Mr., and it's almost the New Year. That's what dragged on to this day. I came to discuss with Master Hou to see when the children would move. When the time comes, I, as an uncle, will have to bring a few servants over to help......"

Xu Siqin can move out, but he can't be brought up by Xu Lingyi, so as not to be misunderstood that Xu Siqin was kicked out by him. Xu Lingyi has been waiting for the next step. Now that the Gan family has moved the ladder, he naturally follows the trend.

"Since it's for studying, it's okay to move out." He pondered, "Otherwise, it's not too late to discuss it after the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the Zhengyuan Dynasty......

It's just a formality!

Xu Siqin's uncle was a little unimpressed, handed over the errand, discussed the nineteenth day of the first month, and then said gossip, so he got up and said goodbye.

Only then did Fang know his mother-in-law's plan. She felt embarrassed, but she could only smile wryly and began to pack the cage, but fortunately, as soon as she entered the door, "most of the cages were not opened", and there were not many things. Slowly put it away" soon came to the tenth day of the first month.

Her lobby brother Fang Ji suddenly came to Yanjing from Jiangnan.

Xu Lingyi personally came forward to entertain him.

Fang Ji was twenty-seven or eight years old, and he and Fang were very imaginative, standing side by side, looking like brother and sister.

He behaved generously, and his speech was neither humble nor arrogant: "...... Come and participate in this year's Spring Festival. Well, it's better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books, so I entered Beijing in advance, wanting to see the customs and customs of Yanjing...... and then let people bring the specialties brought from Huzhou," Auntie was worried about Congmei, and made some of the food she liked to eat and let me bring it over.

Xu Lingyi felt that Fang Ji Yushu was in the wind and liked it very much, so he introduced Xu Siyu to know him, and asked Xu Siyu to take Fang Ji to see Fang's family.

Fang was overjoyed, and took out the eight things that were awarded to Mrs. Tai in the womb a few days ago, and Mrs. Tai rewarded her, to entertain Fang Ji, and personally went to make the big red cannon given by Eleven Niang.

Fang Ji saw that she was much more cheerful than before she got married, and the indoor furnishings looked nothing unusual, but they were elegant everywhere, and the refreshments on her were also very precious, so she settled down: "It seems that Auntie is the right person to marry you to the Xu family by arranging the crowd......"

Fang's face turned red, and he said angrily: "Big brother knows how to talk about me, why don't you talk about yourself?" Didn't the last letter say that I would only arrive in Yanjing in mid-February? Why did you arrive so early? Could it be that the old problem has been committed again? So ran out in advance? Master Fang only survived the son of Fang Ji, and the other children were all ordered by the second room Fang County, some doting, and developed a hobby of collecting gold and stone things, and when he saw good things, he often exchanged the jade pendant on his body or something, and he was inevitably nagged by his mother.

Fang Ji was a little uncomfortable when his sister said it, and looked left and right: "The weather in Yanjing is really cold. The food is rough and rough. I think I'll go back to Jiangnan as soon as I finish the exam......"
