Chapter 546: Questioning (Medium)

If Zhu Xiang was not mistaken, when the third lady came back at this time, she neither greeted Mrs. Tai, nor did the Fang family keep her mouth shut...... Something must have happened.

Could it be related to the rumors of Fang's Kefu?

Eleven Niang thought about it and whispered to Zhu Xiang: "We are not sure if the third lady has returned to Yanjing." Even if she returns to Yanjing, she naturally doesn't want us to know if she acts like this. Let's pretend we don't know! ”

"Madame, don't worry." Zhu Xiang hurriedly said, "I can save it." ”

Zhu Xiang is not only shrewd, but also acts steadily, less hearty than Amber and a little more soft. Such as spring orchid and autumn chrysanthemum, each has its own strengths. Eleven Niang is becoming more and more dependent, and often feels that she and Amber are like her right-hand men, both of which are indispensable.

She thought of Amber: "Peace is better, isn't it?" ”

Amber gave birth to her eldest son on August 19 last year, and followed Hamaju's child to be named Ping'an. It's been 10 months now. A few years ago, he said that he was suffering from some cold, and asked Mr. Bai to help find Dr. Wu from Tai Hospital, and Eleven Niang knew that she asked Zhu Xiang to bring some medicinal materials over, and she also came to see it in person.

"It's a lot better, but it's still a little cough." Zhu Xiang said with a smile, "Imperial Physician Wu said that as long as you take care of the hot and cold days, the child will be fully cured when he is over ten years old." ”

It is "whooping cough" that gets safely.

"You go and tell Amber what kind of herbs the child wants or what kind of doctor she is looking for, and let her tell Mr. Bai directly. Manager Bai, I've already given an explanation. ”

Zhu Xiang responded with a smile and said "yes", and said something: "When I went to see Sister Amber, Sister Yanrong also went to see Sister Amber, and she hugged her eldest daughter, Sister Yu. ”

"Oh!" Eleven Niang smiled, "She also went." ”

"I originally wanted to come over with me to kowtow to my wife, but Sister Yu was crying endlessly, so let me come back and kowtow to my wife on her behalf." As he spoke, he stood up straight and was about to kowtow to Eleven Niang.

I'm afraid of getting into trouble for her!

Eleven Niang smiled and took her hand: "You can bring your words." I just know what she wants! ”

Zhu Xiang knew her temper and no longer insisted, and said: "Yanrong also said that thanks to Mrs., Brother-in-law Cao can be promoted to junior steward." ”

"Cao An is also diligent." Eleven Niang smiled, "Without me, he would have been promoted to a junior steward sooner or later." ”

The two were gossiping, and Xu Lingyi's voice came from outside: "Eleven Niang, have you finished grooming?" ”

Eleven Niang hurriedly answered in a loud voice, changed into a small jacket and walked out of the clean room: "What's wrong?" ”

Xu Lingyi sat at the head of the bed with Brother Jin in her arms, still holding a thick book in her hand.

"Come on." He saw Eleven Niang come out, his expression was a little sneering, "Brother Jin wants to listen to the story of "Jingwei Reclamation", ...... his words were not finished, and Brother Jin, who was sitting in his arms, stood up with a flat mouth.

"Mother!" He opened his arms and made a gesture to hug, "Mother, tell a story!" By the end of the words, there were a few choked up.

Eleven Niang hurriedly stepped forward and hugged him.

Only then did I find that Xu Lingyi was holding a copy of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" in his hand.

She couldn't help but sweat.

The Jingwei reclamation of classical Chinese is only a few short sentences. One can only read from the script, and the other has listened to the vernacular since childhood...... No wonder both father and son feel aggrieved.

Eleven Niang thought of a compromise.

She smiled and hugged her brother and sat on the quilt, and took the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", a sentence in classical Chinese and a sentence in vernacular.

Although there were a few sentences in the middle that he didn't understand, they were generally familiar to him, and Brother Jin immediately quieted down. It wasn't until Eleven Niang spoke for the sixth time that he slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Xu Lingyi looked a little embarrassed: "Do you usually coax your brother to sleep like this?" ”

Eleven Niang was afraid that she would wake up Brother Jin'er, who had just fallen asleep, so she nodded and patted Brother Jin gently, and then put her son on the bed.

"I usually tell stories to Brother Jin in spoken language!" She laughed, "Didn't he just talk at that time?" I had to keep talking to him, hoping that he would learn a sentence or two. ”

Xu Lingyi didn't make a sound, looked at Eleven Niang, and gently touched Brother Jin'er's hair.

Eleven Niang discussed with Xu Lingyi: "I want to draw some of the contents of "Kindergarten" into an atlas and tell Brother Jin to recognize it, what does Master Hou think?" ”

"That's a good idea." Xu Lingyi said with a smile, "I think Mr. Zhao taught his brother to enlightenment, and he also used this method!" It works pretty well. ”

Eleven Niang was very interested when she heard it.

Early the next morning, I went to greet Mrs. Tai, but I only met Fang, but I didn't meet Xu Siqin - since the two brothers Xu Siqin and Xu Sijian moved to Mitsui Hutong, the two children and Fang's came to greet Mrs. Tai rain or shine.

"Why didn't Brother Qin and Brother Jian come today?" Eleven Niang asked her with a smile.

"It's a bit of a lock today." Fang said with a smile, "I usually come at this time, I'm afraid that my grandmother will worry about it late." Let me come first. Xianggong and uncle should be here soon! Then she accompanied Mrs. Tai to say a few gossips, and then got up to take her leave.

After a while, the two brothers, Xu Siqin and Xu Sijian, really came, and they said the same set of words from the Fang family.

Eleven Niang smiled and went back to the house with Xu Sijie.

On the way, she asked about Mr. Zhao's picture book.

“…… In one sentence, he drew a picture with small pieces of paper, and sometimes Mr. Zhao put all these pieces of paper in a small black box, and whoever touched that sentence would memorize a sentence. Very interesting. Then "Huh": "Does Mother want to enlighten Brother Jin'er?" He looked at Brother Jin, who was walking in front of him with the maid Ah Jin, his eyes widened a little, "Otherwise, when Mr. Zhao comes back, I will help my mother ask Mr. Zhao for a set!" "He was generous with his promises.

Seeing that his child looked like an adult, Eleven Niang couldn't help but laugh, and said, "I want to try to let Brother Jin recognize a few words, and when the time comes, I will go to the school, so as not to be difficult." I really wanted to know what Mr. Zhao was drawing, and said, "How many sets of such albums does Mr. Zhao have?" ”

Xu Si admonished: "The fourth brother has one set, I have one set, and I also found one set in Mr.'s study!" ”

"Then you can help me ask Mr. Zhao for a set!" Eleven Niang smiled. When he returned to the house, he called Qiu Yu and brought the paper in, "Let's draw patterns." As he spoke, he drew a pen on the clear paper, "Draw a few tents of water and grass patterns for the people who like to shop, and let them embroider them around the veil, leaving a blank space in the middle, generous and concise." ”

Xu Sijie saw that Eleven Niang's pen was like flowing water, and his eyes widened: "Mother, you are so powerful." It is exactly the same as Mr. Zhao's painting. ”

"How can it be exactly the same!" Eleven Niang smiled and handed the pen to Xu Sijie, "You just follow this drawing, okay?" ”

Xu Si replied respectfully and drew according to her.

Although the brushwork is a little sluggish, it is very rare for his age.

Eleven Niang couldn't stop praising her: "I think at the beginning, I followed the teacher to learn to draw lines, and it took me more than half a year to become a teacher." ”

Xu Sijie was very happy to hear this, and suggested: "It's not good to just paint green aquatic grass patterns. We might as well draw some wisteria and weeds. The colors are also brighter. ”

Eleven Niang thought for a while and said with a smile: "Everyone's preferences are different. We might as well find a few more kinds of embroidery on it! ”

"How's honeysuckle? This?

The two of them talked and laughed, and by the evening, they had already drawn seven or eight patterns.

When I went to greet Mrs. Tai, Fang Clan's thunder couldn't move. And Xu Siqin and Xu Sijian couldn't come under the pretext of having a party.

Mrs. Tai frowned slightly when she heard this: "At a young age, it is the time to study behind closed doors, what kind of entertainment must go?" ”

Fang's smile was gentle: "I didn't ask." When I went back, I sent someone to ask my grandmother. ”

Or maybe it's really a next-generation parent. Mrs. Tai is very fond of Sister Xin and Brother Jin, not to mention, and the other party is also very fond of her.

"You don't have to ask!" The old man laughed, "lest she think you're leaning on me." After a few days, I came to ask him personally. ”

Fang Shi hurriedly bowed to Mrs. Tai and thanked him.

Mrs. Tai turned her head sideways and looked at Shi Niang and sighed: "This is another one as honest as you!" If it had been Danyang, I would have hugged me and cried and laughed. ”

"The fifth brother and sister are true temperament. I'm a little bit out of it. Eleven Niang said a few polite words.

Fang Clan laughed on the side.

In the next few days, Brother Xu Siqin and the Fang family still came to greet Mrs. Tai, not to mention Eleven Niang, even Mrs. Tai was suspicious when she saw it.

She asked Eleven Niang: "It can't be that the two of them quarreled, right?" If that's the case, you, who are aunts, have to go and see and persuade them. ”

Eleven Niangru took a hot potato, as the lady of the Yongping Marquis Mansion who presided over the feed, there was no reason to shirk it.

She smiled and was about to tell Song's mother to prepare the carriage, when Xu Siyu asked to see her.

"Grandmother, mother," he saluted, with a spring breeze that could not be concealed in the corners of his eyebrows, "Uncle Fang is Fang Gongzi, who has been hit by three tanhuas." ”

Mrs. Tai was overjoyed: "This is a great thing." Then he said to Xu Si, "You also go and report it to your father, so that he can be happy and happy." ”

Xu Siyu hurriedly said: "This news was told to me by my father. ”

Since it was Xu Lingyi who asked, there must be news from Qian Ming's side.

Eleven Niang sent Qiu Yu to ask.

Qiu Yu came back: "The three hundred and nineth, given to the same jinshi." ”

In the end, there was still no miracle to reverse Qianlong.

On Fang Ji's side, the Xu family ordered boxwood stationery in Duobao Pavilion. Qian Ming's place, Xu Lingyi personally went there.

"Please help him release the county man." Xu Lingyi came back and smiled bitterly, "I said that instead of going to Liuwen to do the main thing or to imitate the holy will in the pedestrian department, it is better to go to the county to be a county minister and do some actual achievements to promote the county order and dominate the party." ”

"What does Master Hou mean?"

"I think that's fine." Xu Lingyi muttered, "Zhenxing is about to disband, and I want to leave him in the sixth department." ”

If Qian Ming also stayed in the sixth department, it would indeed be too eye-catching.

"Does Big Brother agree?"

"My father-in-law agreed." Xu Lingyi replied, "I am also acting on the orders of my father-in-law. ”

Eleven Niang chuckled.

A little maid ran in: "Xinke's Tanhualang is here!" ”

Xu Lingyi smiled and went to the flower hall in the outer courtyard.
