After a while, Xu Lingkuan and his wife arrived.

Xu Lingkuan's expression was really a little frustrated, and Mrs. Tai hurriedly asked him what happened. Xu Lingkuan hurriedly smiled: "It's okay, it's okay." "I finally prevaricated Mrs. Tai.

The fifth lady glanced at Eleven Niang with a smile.

Eleven Niang just smiled slightly.

There are some things that she doesn't want to happen, but when they happen, she won't avoid them.

Everyone greeted each other, talked with a smile, and then the men and women sat down and had a lively meal.

Back in their own courtyard, Eleven Niang and Xu Lingyi just sat down, and the three aunts came to say hello.

Eleven Niang asked the little maid to invite in.

After saluting, Aunt Qin and Qiao Lianfang stood aside in some silence, but Aunt Wen greeted Xu Lingyi with a smile: "I heard that Master Hou came back early in the morning?" ”

Xu Lingyi said "um", took a sip of tea from the teacup, and his attitude was lukewarm.

Aunt Wen didn't care, and smiled and said to Eleven Niang: "I wanted to sit here in the afternoon, but who knew that you went to Mrs. Tai's." I heard that I played cards, but I didn't have the upper hand. Why don't we sisters practice together first? This playing cards is a matter of practice makes perfect. If you play too much, you will naturally improve. I don't know if my sister is free tomorrow afternoon? I have a pair of old bamboo mahjong there, which is very handy, and I will bring it to my sister when the time comes. If you think it's good, stay ......"

Eleven Niang listened to her with a smile.

That Aunt Qin looked at Aunt Wen with a smile, but Qiao Lianfang stood aside with her head bowed and her hands down.

A little maid came to say that Xu Lingkuan was here.

Eleven Niang was a little surprised.

There was a reaction so quickly......

The three aunts hurriedly got up and avoided to the east room.

Eleven Niang got up and asked the maid to serve Xu Lingkuan refreshments.

Xu Lingkuan said politely: "Sister-in-law, don't be busy, I'll just leave after saying a word to the fourth brother." ”

Eleven Niang smiled and retreated to the east room.

Aunt Wen hurriedly welcomed Eleven Niang to the big kang, and said in her mouth: "...... Why did the fifth master come here at this time? I don't know what's going on? He smiled again, "However, the fifth master has always been bold, even if there is something, I am afraid that it is not his own business." Most of them are begging for other people's affairs. ”

Eleven Niang just smiled and listened. Unexpectedly, Qiao Lianfang suddenly said: "Why do you have so many words!" ”

Aunt Wen's face was slightly red, and a trace of sorrow flashed in her eyes.

Aunt Qin hurriedly smiled and said, "Sister Wen is a warm-hearted person. Sister Qiao has been together for a long time. He took the initiative to pick up Aunt Wen's words, "What my sister said makes sense." The fifth master came, most of them to ask the Hou Ye for other people's affairs. Then asked Eleven Niang, "Madam, I heard Sister Wen say that the Holly girl is going to your house in Goldfish Lane in two days to settle a few rooms with her, and you have less manpower here, so I'll help you stay on duty!" ”

This is the first time Aunt Qin has communicated with Eleven Niang.

The words are nice, and the tone is very soft. It's just that she's not used to it.

She smiled: "You are the old man next to Hou Ye, how can you come to watch the night." Besides, I have amber by my side. No matter how bad it is, there is also Tao's mother. ”

Aunt Qin hurriedly said: "No matter how long I have been by the Hou Ye's side, the elder and the young cannot be abolished, and it is my duty to serve my wife." If the lady has something, she just needs to call it. ”

Her expression was sincere.

If it's not sincere, it's a master of acting.

Eleven Niang hopes that she is sincere.

Aunt Qin was born as a maidservant, and life and death are not up to her; Aunt Wen seems to be cooking oil with fire, but she is just a victim of the family to climb the dragon and the phoenix, once her own interests conflict with the interests of the Wen family, the Wen family may not care about her. There is also Qiao Lianfang, although it is wrong for her to fall into the trap of Yuan Niang, but without Mrs. Qiao's help, she may not fall into such a situation. Including yourself. If there is a better choice, she may not marry into the Xu Mansion.

Since everyone has their own last resort, why should women bother women!

Therefore, she hopes that Aunt Qin is sincere, and she will sincerely stay in her position and not overstep, no, it doesn't matter if she is a little overbearing, if the water is clear, there will be no fish, who doesn't have a little selfishness...... Just, don't cross her bottom line. She has the people she wants to protect, and she has the life she wants.

Over there, Xu Lingkuan was discussing with his brother: "...... We thought about it, and it would be best to move to the annex at the foot of Mt. Rakhiba. It's quiet and the view is good. so as not to disturb the old people of the two families. ”

"How can that work?" Xu Lingyi immediately objected, "That place is too remote." In this way, you will live at home for the past two days, and tomorrow there will be an early morning, and I will consult with the old marquis at that time to see his old man's opinion. As for what should be avoided at home or temporarily avoided, you should not move around. ”

Xu Lingkuan responded and got up to say goodbye.

Xu Lingyi sent her younger brother out, and came back and instructed Eleven Niang: "Isn't there a catty of blood swallows at home?" You can send some to your mother and five siblings early tomorrow morning. The fifth brother and sister are pregnant, you are a sister-in-law, so go to her more often. ”

Eleven Niang should say "yes", but said in her heart, you slap a date like this, I am afraid that this Danyang county lord will not appreciate it.

At this moment, the fifth lady was also talking to her nurse Mother Shi: "...... All the cattle avoided it, not to mention anything else, but in the mother's house, there were five or six little maids, could it be that they could buy a few little maids for this matter? Even if you buy it back, you still have to be trained by mothers, right? I won't be able to get started for a while. This is a matter of mobilization. Back then, she caught the anchovy and wanted to clean up the fourth room, but I didn't say a word, giving her enough face, but she didn't know how to advance or retreat, thinking that I was afraid of her. I'm doing this now, just to let Sanfang take a look. I was going to talk to Mrs. Tai in a few days, and move to the Fangsheng Hutong next to Ciyuan Temple - not close and not far from Ciyuan Temple, I have something to do, Master Jining can also come and see me. But Eleven Niang forced me to move like this, and I was inevitably unhappy! ”

Mother Shi carefully put the fifth lady's leg on the chaise longue, and said with a smile: "You think too much." Hou Ye is not that kind of person! ”

When the fifth lady heard this, she suddenly laughed: "Xiao Wu can't hear me humming in front of him." As he spoke, his face turned red.

"That's why the fifth master really feels sorry for you." Thinking of the old Hou Ye repeatedly telling her not to have a conflict with the Hou Ye. Mother Shi smiled and put the thin quilt on the fifth lady's body, "It doesn't matter if you are small. can't let the fifth master and the Hou master have a conflict. What's more, a person like Hou Ye, even if the old Hou Ye sees it, he has to be polite and give three points. With the support of the Hou Ye, you can enjoy the shade under the big tree. You know, fathers and sons go into battle, and brothers fight. If you want to live well in this family, you must first have a harmonious brother and a harmonious ......."

"Got it, got it." The fifth lady said coquettishly, "Otherwise, why would I let Xiao Wu go back to the Hou Ye without saying a word." You are nagging in my ear every day, you are not annoyed when you say it, but I am tired of listening to it. ”

Mother Shi laughed twice, stopped making a sound, and looked at the fifth lady's eyes full of love.

The fifth lady pulled Shi Ma**'s sleeve: "You say, if the third room knew that I moved out, would they jump up in anger." ”

Since the fifth lady listened to her persuasion, at this time, she naturally had to follow her.

Mother Shi immediately smiled: "That's nature. Speaking of which, your trick made her suffer a loss. You must know that the chief steward of the outer courtyard is also a cow, and the steward Zhao of the department is also a cow. These two people are used to by Hou Ye. If she uses you to stumble these two people, it will inevitably affect you at that time. It's still our county lord who is smart enough to ignore her at all, and move generously to Fangsheng Hutong. Besides, it's your dowry, and it's our own people inside and out. You can wake up when you want, and sleep whenever you want. The fifth master saw only joy and no blame. ”

The fifth lady smiled and nodded: "I'll let her toss." Don't you just want to split up? If she said it clearly, would her mother stop her? ”

Mother Shi just laughed and didn't say a word.

If you don't have money, what kind of home will you share?

Eleven Niang made the bed according to her previous habits, but when she turned around, she saw Xu Lingyi standing at the door of the clean room looking at her.

"Do you want a cup of tea?" Eleven Niang asked Xu Lingyi with a smile.

"No, you don't." Xu Lingyi strode over, "Where's your maid?" ”

It's watching her make her own bed, so she's a little confused, right?

It's definitely not that Amber didn't help, but that Eleven Niang refused. In the face of the unfamiliar Xu Lingyi, do something, so as not to be cranky, and can stabilize your emotions.

"It's just a small thing!" She explained with a smile, "It's just a matter of hand." ”

Xu Lingyi nodded, took off his shoes and went to bed: "Go to bed early, there will be an early morning tomorrow." ”

Since she knew that Xu Lingyi was going to go to the morning court, she had the mental preparation to get up when she was ugly every morning.

Blowing out the lamp and going to bed, Xu Lingyi suddenly asked her: "The maid next to you has followed you since childhood, right?" ”

Because both Holly and Hamaju are older than her?

Eleven Niang wants to grasp every topic he is interested in: "When I was a child, I followed my father in Fujian, and when I came back, my nurse was reluctant to leave her hometown. Amber, holly, and chrysanthemum were rewarded by my mother after I returned to Yuhang. Zhu Xiang was rewarded by my aunt. ”

Xu Lingyi didn't make a sound.

Eleven Niang continued: "My aunt used to be a maid by my mother's side. When I was a child, I thought she was like a fairy. It's a pity that she couldn't come this time when I got married. ”

Xu Lingyi still didn't move.

But she heard even breathing.

Fall asleep!

Eleven Niang thought that the fifth aunt was smiling, and there was a gloomy color in her eyes.

She looked at the top of the tent and whispered, "...... I don't know how she is doing in Yuhang? ”

The eldest lady is going back. Now that she is married to the Yongping Marquis's mansion, she is the wife of the Yongping Marquis. For Brother Zhen's sake, she will give her a few decent portions!

"If you miss her, just let your father-in-law take her to her mother-in-law to serve!" In the dark, Xu Lingyi's deep voice came as far away as a morning bell, "There's no need to keep talking like this." ”

Eleven Niang turned over and looked at the people around her with her arms on her pillow.

The moon of fifteen is sixteen round, and fourteen is also bright. Through the Luo tent, you can see Xu Lingyi's outline.

He has broad shoulders and a sturdy and slender build. Remember standing with him, myself only up to his shoulder.

"Am I talking a lot?" She asked him with a smile.

Eleven Niang waited for a while before hearing Xu Lingyi's answer: "It's okay." ”

"Compared to Master Hou, I do have more words." Eleven Niang couldn't help but smile slightly.

Looking at her happy eyebrows, in the half-light and half-dark tent, Xu Lingyi's eyes were shining.
