Chapter 532: Persuasion (II)
Afterwards, Xu Lingyi instructed Qiu Yu, who was on duty at night, to let the kitchen cook bowls of noodles with chicken soup.
"No need!" Eleven Niang hurriedly said, "I want to rebuild the stove again." There are pastries in the food box outside, and I just eat two pieces to cushion my stomach. Besides, it's almost dawn. ”
Xu Lingyi ignored her and asked Qiuyu to "go and come quickly".
Eleven Niang was a little surprised.
Xu Lingyi reprimanded her with a straight face: "There are a lot of maids and mothers-in-law at home. You've woken up hungry! Seeing her lazy, she looked a little tired, and a little heartache, so he held her in his arms, "I finally raised some meat." You don't care about yourself too much. ”
Eleven Niang blushed at what he said, and fell into his arms silently.
Xu Lingyi looked at her childishly and couldn't help laughing.
Eleven Niang's face was flushed hot, and in order to get rid of this dilemma, she told him about the shortcomings of her parents: when she went to ask her mother for peace at night, she met the third sister-in-law. Did Master Hou tell his mother what the third master meant? ”
Xu Lingyi knew that she was embarrassed, so she smiled and helped her tuck the corners of the quilt and wrap her tighter. Following her words, he said, "Yes." Mother's meaning, since they have this heart, no matter how reluctant we are, we will only make them hold grudges. If you want to move, move it! ”
The tone was light, obviously a little uneasy about this matter.
Eleven Niang couldn't help but regret mentioning this topic. It happened that Qiu Yu sent chicken noodle soup in, and Eleven Niang smiled and pulled Xu Lingyi to eat noodles.
"I don't eat it!" Xu Lingyi helped her put on a small jacket, "You can eat it yourself!" Then he got up and came in with noodles, and sat aside to watch Eleven Niang eat.
Under the bright light, Eleven Niang smiled and ate the noodles in small bites, showing a satisfied look.
The corners of Xu Lingyi's mouth couldn't help but bend into a pleasant arc.
He likes this kind of eleven mother very much, and a small thing can make her happy and satisfied.
He couldn't help but reach out and brush her hair that was supple behind her ear and brushed it again: "Slow down, be careful of perming." ”
* * * * * *
After eating a small bowl of noodles, rinsing my mouth and washing my hands, I lay down again, and the sky was already a little pale.
Xu Lingyi went to the back garden to practice swords, and Eleven Niang got up after lying in bed for a while.
A little guy ran in: "Madam, the uncle of the bowstring alley is here!" ”
Eleven Niang was stunned.
Rushing over so early, could it be that something happened to Qi Niang?
She instructed the little maid to "invite my uncle to sit in the study", urging Qiu Yu to comb her hair quickly, and then hurried to the study.
Luo Zhenxing paced in the study with his hands behind his back, his expression a little dignified.
Seeing Eleven Niang, he strode over: "I wrote a letter to my father, and you sent someone to Yuhang quickly." As he spoke, he pulled out a letter from his sleeve.
The eldest lord's letter has not been replied to, why Luo Zhenxing wants to send a letter to Yuhang again.
"What's going on?" Eleven Niang asked Luo Zhenxing to sit down and speak.
Luo Zhenxing pondered for a while before he said slowly: "I took the letter from the second uncle, and after listening to the tone of the second uncle, I quite agreed with the fourth sister's son to be passed on to Qi Niang." also asked me to help Qi Niang talk to the people of the Zhu family. I think that this matter involves the affairs of the temple, and there are some rules that I may not understand, and I still have to preside over the overall situation. ”
In this way, Luo Zhenxing also discovered the second uncle's intentions.
Eleven Niang told Luo Zhenxing the news she got from the fifth lady.
Luo Zhenxing frowned when he heard this, and scolded Eleven Niang in a low voice: "Seventh sister is not sensible, how can you follow the crowd." The second uncle just felt that the Zhu family didn't take the Luo family in his eyes, so he didn't say hello in advance, saying that the ancestral hall would be opened. It's just a breath in my chest. We are juniors, how can we criticize our elders like this. ”
Eleven Niang was speechless.
That's it, but also to maintain the dignity of the second master as an elder.
She whispered "yes" and asked the little maid to invite Mr. Bai to come.
Luo Zhenxing's expression was slightly softened, and he said, "Do you have anything important in the past two days?" If there is nothing important, go and persuade Qi Niang! Let her not let sex mess around. In the matter of the adoptive, I helped her come forward and asked her not to say anything to her seventh brother-in-law, nor to the people of the Zhu family. If someone from the Zhu family looks for her, or Zhu Anping talks to her about the next thing, just push it to me! ”
I'm afraid that Qi Niang will continue to make trouble like this, and things will become out of control!
Eleven Niang told Luo Zhenxing that she had invited the fifth lady to persuade Qi Niang.
Luo Zhenxing was silent for a long time, and said in a low voice: "In this case, when you have time, you and the fifth lady will go to see your seventh sister more." ”
It can be regarded as acquiescing to Danyang's idea.
Xu Lingyi came back from sword practice.
"What's the hurry, come here so early?" He smiled and instructed the little maid to set up breakfast.
"I want to send a letter to Yu Hang through Master Hou." The brother and sister invariably chose the same excuse, "In the past two days, General Jiang has been reporting good news in Fujian, and Dou Ge Lao asked us to write some newspapers from the Sixth Department to the provinces, and I have to rush to the Hanlin Academy." Come and have a drink with Hou Ye another day. Wanyan refused Xu Lingyi's retention and got up to leave.
Xu Lingyi heard that he had official business, so he didn't stay any longer, and asked about the war in Fujian, and sent Luo Zhenxing out. Then he turned around and called Chief Steward Bai: "Uncle often asks you to help deliver letters these days?" ”
There are some things that you don't know if you don't ask, but you can't hide them if you ask.
"This is the second time." "The first time was a letter sent by Madame. ”
Xu Lingyi nodded, went back to the main house, and found that after Eleven Niang greeted Mrs. Tai, she took Brother Jin to Mrs. Five.
"The seventh sister asked her personal mother to send a letter, saying that the seventh brother-in-law will come to Yanjing in the next two days?"
Brother Jin, who just knew how to walk, didn't let people hug him, so he had to walk on the ground. He walked in the spacious hall of the fifth lady, and no one helped him. Eleven Niang's hen followed behind Jin Ge'er with her arms outstretched like a chick to prevent him from falling, and took the time to look up at the fifth lady sitting on the big kang by the window of the banquet room.
"yes!" The fifth lady felt that Eleven Niang was too nervous about Brother Jin'er, "Just let the nurse take him." Come and sit down! Then he said, "What should I do?" ”
"I came back late yesterday and he didn't see me when he fell asleep. When I opened my eyes today, I wanted to hug me, not even Hou Ye. Eleven Niang explained, "I'd better take him with me." lest he weep. You don't know, he cried, earth-shattering, I don't know how scary it was. ”
Wufu *** laughed: "Which child is not earth-shattering when he cries." ”
"I think Sister Xin is very delicate." Eleven Niang said, seeing Brother Jin grabbing the tassel of the tablecloth with her feet, she hurriedly stepped forward to coax Brother Jin to let go, Brother Jin finally let go, and then continued to talk to the fifth lady, "Someone has to come forward to talk to Seventh Brother-in-law." "The Fifth Lady is not a good candidate. First, she is an outsider, and since ancient times, she has a family ugly and does not speak publicly. Zhu Anping knew that even the fifth lady knew about the matter, and he would not be able to get over his face. Second, she has a mother-in-law and children, and she can't run around for three days for Qi Niang's business. "Look, how about letting my fourth sister say?"
The fifth lady came to Eleven Niang for this matter.
persuade Qi Niang, it doesn't matter if she comes forward. If it is to question Zhu Anping, whether it is from identity, status or position, she is not very suitable. But I pushed it myself, and I was afraid that Eleven Niang and Qi Niang would think that she was unwilling to help. Hearing Shi Niang say this, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"The fourth sister is naturally the best." The fifth lady smiled, "As an aunt, you can say anything." If you go too far, there are four brothers-in-law who can help come out to persuade peace. ”
"Then I'll talk to the fourth sister." Seeing that Brother Jin was holding the Taishi chair and not moving, Eleven Niang felt that he was a little tired, so she hugged her son, "Brother and sister will tell my seventh sister." ”
The fifth lady gave Qi Niang a good idea that was both in line with her mind and let her accept it and be realized, the words of the fifth lady were for Qi Niang, but there was a Buddhist language, and other words, Qi Niang may not be able to listen to it at the moment.
"Okay!" The fifth lady also felt that Qi Niang now had a little knot in her sisters, so it was better to say it herself. "I'll write her a letter - if Mrs. Yu doesn't listen to Zhu Anping, I'll ask the fifth master to tell Zhu Anping again. In this way, it can also calm the heart of Qi Niang. ”
Eleven Niang nodded, and the two discussed some details. One wrote a letter to Qi Niang, and the other wrote a letter to Si Niang.
Mother Shi didn't know how happy she was, the snacks and fruits kept on the ground, and when she saw the two of them talking about Qi Niang together, she sent a maid to serve in the house in person.
When it was time for lunch, Eleven Niang and Mrs. Wu hugged the child together to greet Mrs. Tai.
The jade plate glanced at them: "The third lady is in the inner room." ”
The two of them paused for a moment, and faintly heard a cry.
The fifth lady couldn't help but smile in her eyes.
She asked the jade version in a low voice, "What's the matter?" ”
The jade version glanced at Eleven Niang, and saw that Eleven Niang also showed a look of listening, so she whispered: "Last night, the third lady and the maid played the leaf card for half a night, and the eldest young grandmother has been serving beside her. It may be that I have been standing for a long time and my legs are numb. When I went out, I fell and broke my hand. It's a new daughter-in-law again, I don't dare to make a sound, I got up this morning, and my hands were swollen like steamed buns. Mrs. Tai was trembling with anger when she found out, and she was talking! ”
The fifth lady glanced at Eleven Niang as if demonstrating, and said in a low voice: "How is it?" I said earlier, she is too harsh to others, and sooner or later something will happen! As he spoke, he pursed his lips and smiled, "Our young grandmother's hand is at the right time." ”
Eleven Niang also felt that the third lady had gone a little too far, thought about it, and asked the jade version: "What did the eldest young master say?" ”
The jade version was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "It's still the eldest young master who gave the third lady, and the third lady helped to invite the doctor." ”
Eleven Niang sighed in her heart, and took the child to play under the eaves with the fifth lady, and discussed with her to see the Fang family.
"That's nature." The fifth lady said, her eyes shining, "She just got married and held her hand, how can we sit idly by." ”
Eleven Niang couldn't help but feel furious when she looked at it.
* * * * * *
Brother Jin took two steps, looked back at Eleven Niang, saw Eleven Niang following him, took two more steps, and then looked back at Eleven Niang, looking like he wanted to go and was scared, very cute, which attracted the little maids and daughters-in-law in Mrs. Tai's house to laugh one by one, and some little maids couldn't help laughing, which alarmed the people in the inner room.
After a while, Mrs. Tai asked the jade plate to pass them in.
The third lady's eyes were red and swollen, and she stood aside with a depressed expression, and when she saw Eleven Niang and the fifth lady walking in one after another, her eyes couldn't help but show a little resentment.
