The fifth lady took the letter and immediately came to Eleven Niang: , how about I, I have this idea! "Very proud," said when I accompanied her to see the doctor that time, the doctor also told her not to worry. I think she's in a hurry if she doesn't have children. Then he said, "Fourth sister-in-law, I think, you might as well clear two pieces of clothes that Brother Jin wore when he was a child, and I will find two more clothes that Brother Zhen wore when he was a child, and let the mother-in-law take them to Gaoqing together." I guarantee that she can win a man in one fell swoop this time. After speaking, he also folded his hands and chanted "Amitabha".

Eleven Niang couldn't help but laugh when she looked at it.

The fifth lady whispered to her to look for clothes.

"I went to the clinic in September, and the delivery date should be in the summer." Eleven Niang smiled and picked out two larger white sè Songjiang triangular cloth clothes: "Brother Jin was born in winter, and I am afraid that this dress will be smaller by then." ”

"Oops!" The fifth lady smiled, "It's just a good sign." It's up to her to wear it or not! As he spoke, he saw a red carved silk plush jacket in the box, and couldn't help bending down to take a look: "This dress is so beautiful, why don't I have any impression............" Before he finished speaking, his face changed, and he crossed his waist with one hand, "Fourth sister-in-law, I seem to be about to give birth!" ”

"Didn't you say the moon?" Eleven Niang was startled at first, but quickly calmed down, first helped her sit on the Taishi chair next to her with a big red brocade cushion, and then told Qiu Yu and Fangxi to call Wenpo, shout to shout shoulder, and then called Song's mother to watch Brother Jin at home, and Eleven Niang accompanied her to the fifth lady.

When it was time to hold the lamp, the fifth lady gave birth to her second son very smoothly.

The fifth lady was eating wine and stuffing eggs, and said angrily: "Tell Qi Niang, it's all for her, I was born prematurely." ”

Eleven Niang hugged the white and chubby child and smiled: "Don't worry, I will write to her." ”

As he was talking, Mrs. Tai, who had received the letter, came over.

Seeing the little grandson whose eyes had not yet opened, the old man was very happy: "Look at this appearance, it really looks like Brother Jin!" ”

Eleven Niang was a little crying and laughing.

Mrs. Tai always hangs her brother on her lips, and occasionally there will be times when she leaks her mouth like this.

She hurriedly said: "Yes, it is the same as when our brother was born" and grew strong.

Then he asked Mother Shi in a loud voice: "What?" Hasn't the fifth master come back yet? ”

Mother Shi was a transparent person, and immediately smiled: "I have already sent someone to wait outside the palace gate." I'll send someone to rush me again. Then he asked the fifth lady, "Look, on the other side of the red light alley, should you go and report now?" Or will you report it early tomorrow morning? ”

Old Marquis Sun's regret is that he has no son. When Brother Xu'er was born, he would "ignore the common etiquette and come to the house to see his grandson when he was baptized." This time, the fifth lady gave birth to another son, and the joy of the old marquis Sun can be imagined.

"I'll send someone to report it to my father." The fifth lady had a smile on her face when she thought about it.

Eleven Niang suggested: "Or, by the way, also send a letter to Mitsui Hutong?" Then he told the fifth lady about the child's baptism," ...... You see what to do. I'll be able to settle the menu when the time comes."

It's winter now, and it's almost the time of the Chinese New Year, and many shops have long been closed, and some things can't be bought with money. But the fifth lady has always felt sorry for the child, "and she is a person who wants to save face, as long as she is the head of the house, she always has to fight for applause." Hearing this, he groaned: "I want to use mustard greens or spinach on the table when the time comes" I don't know if I can buy it? ”

Fresh vegetables are rare in the winter in the north, not to mention spinach harvested in the spring.

"I'll go back and tell the stewards," said Eleven Niang, "to see if I can find some in the greenhouse in Fengtai." If not, what do you think about using radishes or gherkins? Our family has prepared a lot of them for the New Year. ”

It is also decent to use radish or gherkin. The fifth lady was not too happy, and said with a smile: "Okay! The fourth sister-in-law just needs to help with the idea. Last time Brother Xu'er's first birthday ceremony, everyone said yes! ”

Everyone talked and laughed and revealed this matter. When Xu Lingkuan came back, he hugged the child and smiled from ear to ear, and after being busy for most of the night, he named the child "Cheng".

"Faith, gentleman!"

Mrs. Tai said "yes" repeatedly.

Eleven Niang was busy buying spinach.

Fortunately, Mr. Bai was very capable, and he sent a basket in the afternoon.

Eleven Niang calculated, "There are more." Let Song's mother wrap two copies in brown paper, one to the bowstring alley, and one to Mrs. Suantai.

In the evening, Mother Song came back, brought the clothes and food that Mrs. Gan had made for Brother Jin'er, and whispered to Eleven Niang: "Yu Hang's uncle and grandmother have sent a letter." Let the eldest uncle send the fifth young master back to Yuhang in the spring. In this way, Aunt Wang can also take care of Uncle Shuo wholeheartedly. When Aunt Wang came out to pick up the food, her eyes were red, "I cried at first glance." ”

Eleven Niang was secretly surprised.

In the spring of this year, Luo Zhenxing's aunt gave birth to a son, and the Luo family ranked fifth among the "family" generations. Because it was a concubine, there was no banquet, only the fourth mother, the fifth mother, and the eleventh mother were aunts who went to see it and gave a meeting gift.

"Who told you?" She couldn't help but say, "What did my eldest brother say? ”

The husband and wife are separated, and the person next to him who gets along day and night, shush the cold and ask for warmth, and has a son, Eleven Niang is a little worried, afraid that there will be a gap between Luo Zhenxing and his wife.

Song's mother said: "Hang's mother told me. Listening to Hang's mother's tone, the eldest uncle also agreed. ”

She couldn't help but breathe. "Write it down!" Don't forget to remind me when the time comes, I can also bring some things back to Yu Hang. ”

Eleven Niang sat for a while before getting up and going to the UA hall, and asked Zhu Xiang to call a few mothers in charge to arrange Brother Cheng'er's baptism.

Because at the end of the year, everyone was busy, and they dispersed after eating. The full moon ceremony is on the eighth day of the first lunar month, and it is the time for the prefectures to invite spring guests and visit the door, and the fifth lady discusses the eleventh mother: "...... The 100-day gift must be done well no matter what! He can't let him weaken his sister and brother. ”

Eleven Niang could understand the fifth lady's mood of wanting to level out a bowl of water, and said with a smile: "Okay! At that time, it was the beginning of March, a good time for the grass to grow and the warbler to fly, and we could also take the opportunity to have a lively time. ”

The fifth lady remembered Qi Niang: "It's a pity that she can't come." After speaking, he said, "Oops", "I'm so confused." In October, I asked my brother to marry his daughter-in-law, and when the time came, I would like to invite Qi Niang to drink the wedding wine......"

Eleven Niang poured cold water on her: "At that time, the child was still young, how could the seventh sister be willing to let the child travel a long distance." ”

"Yes!" The fifth lady couldn't help but be a little frustrated.

Mother Song came in with a smile. Greeted the fifth lady and asked Eleven Niang to show me: "What should I do with the things in the fifth young master's workshop?" It's just a three-room courtyard. ”

Eleven Niang thought for a while and said, "You let the fifth young master go and see for himself first."

If you want to take it away, pack it up first, and put it where you put it" After I discuss it with Hou Ye, I'll talk about it.

The fifth lady was a little interested, and got up to say goodbye while she finished speaking: "Since you are busy, I won't bother." I'll come back in a few days to discuss Brother Cheng's 100-day gift. ”

Eleven Niang knew that she had a knot, and she didn't leave her" smiled and said yes, sent her out, and then went to Xu Sijie's workshop.

The contents were neatly packed, and the air had a somewhat cold smell, as if no one had used it for some days.

She's busy entertaining and being a guest these days. Seeing that yesterday's Lantern Festival, Xu Sijie also made a rabbit lamp for Brother Jin and Brother Xu, and couldn't help but feel sleepy.

Hearing the news, Nan Yong's daughter-in-law, who left the cage box that was being packed and rushed over, hurriedly said: "The rabbit lamps for the sixth and fifth young masters were made early in the morning. These days for the New Year, Mr. Zhao has returned to his hometown, and the fifth young master is with the fourth young master most of the time, except for occasionally playing the flute. ”

During the Chinese New Year, Eleven Niang encouraged Xu Sizhen to invite spring guests.

Xu Sizhen was a little overwhelmed at first, but soon became interested: "Okay, okay, Han Jian is also at home to invite spring guests." also gave me a post, but I was afraid that my father would be unhappy, so I didn't go to ......" said, his voice gradually became smaller, thinking that Eleven Niang told him to be bolder, his expression became a little uneasy, "I watched my father never feast on a large scale." After speaking, "I was afraid that Eleven Niang would blame her, and said, "It's the full moon ceremony of the sixth brother, and it's not as noisy as the second sister and the seventh brother......

Explaining Xu Lingyi's behavior is too complicated, and it's not timely.

"Then let's go and ask Master Hou!" Eleven Niang said softly, "If the Hou Ye agrees, we will invite the spring guest in the next post." If we don't, we'll forget it. ”

Xu Sizhen was still a little hesitant: "If Daddy is angry......

"If we don't give it a try, how do we know that your father won't agree!" Eleven Niang cheered him up, "I'll go with you." Just standing outside the study and waiting for you. ”

Xu Sizhen's eyes lit up when he listened, and he went to Xu Lingyi with Eleven Niang.

Xu Lingyi listened to her son's stumbling plea, "I feel a little relieved."

He can give his son an identity and status, but whether he can keep this identity and status can only rely on Xu Sizhen himself.

Seeing that his son seemed to have opened his mind, "suddenly began to know the importance of his friend, Xu Lingyi not only readily agreed" but also sent Steward Zhao to assist him in entertaining guests.

Xu Sizhen was simply flattered, he went out in a chaotic manner, and only when he saw Eleven Niang did he have a real feeling. Quickly ran to Eleven Niang: "Daddy agreed, Daddy agreed!" I also asked Steward Zhao to help me have a treat. ”

Because of the excitement, his face was swollen and red.

"You see, it's not that hard to speak!" Eleven Niang looked at Xu Sizhen with a smile.

Xu Sichen nodded vigorously.

"That's it! We're starting to get ready for a spring visit. "Eleven Niang made a look of a hundred times more energetic,", you first draw up a list of treats, and then post a post, so that the little guy who usually goes out with you asks what the guests like to eat, and I will help you prepare wine and food. ”

Xu Si nodded again and again, and said in a chatter: "I know, I know." Wang Yun doesn't eat sweets, Dou Jing likes to eat fish, and Han Jian wants to put it when he drinks tea......" His upturned face was radiant, as if he had driven away the cold of winter.

In fact, Xu Sizhen is a very careful child!

Eleven Niang looked up with a smile, but saw Xu Lingyi standing behind the window looking at them with a smile.

She raised her eyebrows at Xu Lingyi at that time, made a "Look, it's all your fault" expression, grabbed Xu Sizhen's shoulders and left the outer study.

The subsequent Spring Banquet was a success.

For this reason, Xu Sichen ran to Eleven Niang to tell her everything in detail, and he was still reluctant to leave when he arrived. Brother Jin, who couldn't hear the story, couldn't stop glaring at him.

Thinking of this, Eleven Niang couldn't help but smile: "Let them two brothers play!" Zhao Xianmang will be back in two days, but there is no such ease. ”
