Chapter 390: Trouble (Part II)

The news that Aunt Qiao was sent to Dajue Temple soon became known to everyone.

The little maids who usually like to talk to each other in the alleys of the east courtyard are gone, and the low eyebrows and pleasing eyes who stand under the eaves are a few more respectful than usual, and a few mothers-in-law who rely on the old seller to sit in front of the hanging flower door and blow the wind are also hiding in their respective houses and not coming out. The Yongping Marquis Mansion suddenly fell silent, and the Manfu only heard the screams.

"That kid, one wrong step, one wrong step." Summer always makes people feel lazy, Mrs. Tai leaned on the big kang near the window, and sighed with Du's mother, who fanned herself, "It has become unrecognizable now." "I feel sorry for Qiao Lianfang.

"It's also a personal creation." Mother Du comforted Mrs. Tai, "Our Hou Ye treats people generously, and the fourth lady is kind to people, she has a bad time when she meets such a person, and she can't complain about others." ”

"Hatred and anger are obstacles." Mrs. Tai nodded, "Send her to Dajue Temple for a few days of meditation, maybe she can get lost." ”

"That's exactly what you said." Mother Du smiled and handed the fan to the little maid on the side, and took the lotus seed and lily soup in the hand of the other little maid and presented it to Mrs. Tai, "Look, the eldest brother of Uncle Nanjing's family is married, what should we send?" ”

Two days ago, a letter came from Nanjing, saying that Xu Linghong's eldest son was scheduled to marry on September 18.

"It's the eldest son and eldest grandson of that room, so naturally you can't be sloppy." Mrs. Tai smiled, "But now it's not me in charge, we eat and drink well, and we are at the mercy of dispatch." ”

Du's mother laughed when she heard this: "Listening to your tone, do you still want to go to Nanjing?" ”

"Well," said Mrs. Tai, sitting up, her face full of excitement, "you have a good idea. When the time comes, I will talk to the fourth and eleventh mothers, if I can really go to Nanjing, I have no regrets. I went there once when I was seven or eight years old, and it was also this season, I only remember my father and many people drinking in the river house, I was arguing to go back, I don't know whose little house, I used five copper plates to buy a pack of water chestnuts wrapped in lotus leaves, I still remember the fragrance of lotus leaves......"

The topic was diverted, and no one mentioned Dajue Temple anymore.

Yang Shi gasped: "Sent people to Dajue Temple?" ”

Mother Yang nodded: "Aunt Qiao's side served, including the embroidery, none of them were taken away." I just listened to what Ruizhu said. When Mother Song said this, she was also present, and there would never be anything wrong. ”

Yang's thin eyebrows gradually closed, and there was a bit of solemnity in his expression.

"Auntie," Mother Yang, who was looking at her, said with some hesitation, "Aunt Qiao was sent to Dajue Temple, isn't it good for you?" ”

"With one less person, things will be simpler." Yang looked in the direction of the main house where Eleven Niang lived in the west, "It's just that there is something, I'm afraid I have to think about it again." ”

Mother Yang didn't understand: "What do you want to think about again?" ”

Yang knew that his mother was honest and loyal, not a strategist, but a loyal servant. He turned back and smiled at Mother Yang, and said, "Naturally, how to please Mrs.!" ”

Mother Yang couldn't help but feel sad when she heard this, and she didn't know what to say.

Yang had already instructed Mother Yang with a smile: "You take out all the tricks I brought into the house, and I'll see if there is anything suitable for Xipu." ”

Aunt Wen was wondering, "...... Dajue Temple, how does it sound a little familiar, but if you think about it carefully, you can't remember it. ”

"Then don't think about it!" Qiu Hong smiled, "It's not a good place to go anyway." Otherwise, how could Aunt Qiao, who had contradicted Mrs., be sent over? She was more concerned about another matter, "Auntie, did Madame say what to do with them?" ”

Aunt Wen shook the fan vigorously twice: "Detain them in the house and let them help the needle and thread people do needlework." ”

Qiu Hong laughed "fluttering": "Madame likes to let people do needlework the most!" ”

"It's good to do needlework," Aunt Wen said disappreciatively, "lock people in the house and do needlework." lest you get into trouble everywhere......" As soon as the words fell, she was already stunned.

"What's wrong?" Qiu Hong looked curious.

"Nothing! It's nothing! Aunt Wen was thoughtful, "I was just thinking, Madame often asks Aunt Qin to do needlework......"

"What's so strange about that." Qiu Hong was puzzled, "Isn't my aunt supposed to help Mrs. with needlework?" ”

Aunt Wen didn't make a sound, looking a little absent-minded.

In the evening, I went to say hello to Eleven Niang, and she seemed quieter than usual. However, this did not attract the attention of Aunt Qin and the Yang family, and compared to the two of them, her words still seemed a lot. And the eleven niang who noticed it secretly thought in her heart: when the incident of Qiao Lianfang happened, everyone will always have some feelings.

After a few words, she served tea.

The next day, Master Jian visited.

"King Shun introduced another business to us." She smiled and said, "Be a magpie bridge complement for the Qixi Festival." ”

"Our shop has become a supplement specialist." Shi Niang laughed when she heard this, and asked again, "What is the price?" ”

"Same as last time." Master Jian smiled, "But it's twice as many as last time." The shopkeeper asked me to discuss with you and want to recruit a few more people. ”

In other words, you can make a small profit.

"When the business is good, it is natural to recruit a few more people."

Master Jian got the letter and said goodbye with a smile.

It happened that Ji Ting bloomed for the gardenia that Eleven Niang raised in the greenhouse, and Mrs. Tai, Mrs. Two, Mrs. Five and others sent it, and only four or five were left, and Eleven Niang asked people to send two to Lin Da * Milk, and brought the other three to Mrs. Gan.

"It's bigger than hosta and jasmine." Mrs. Gan is very rare, "Only your family can raise it!" Then he instructed the little maid to find a small red bowl from the bottom of the box and raise it, and asked the maid to cut a watermelon to eat.

Eleven Niang saw that she liked it, and she was also happy, and while eating fruit, she talked to her about the things in the shop.

Mrs. Gan smiled: "In the Zhengdan Festival, you should wear gourd scenery supplements, Lantern Festival should wear lantern scenery supplements, Dragon Boat Festival should wear five poisonous Aihu supplements, Double Ninth Festival should wear chrysanthemum supplements, and winter solstice should wear Yangsheng supplements...... There is endless business throughout the year. King Shun, you have to thank you very much. ”

"I think so too." Eleven Niang smiled, "I want to ask Master Jian to embroider a baby jacket for Princess Shun, what do you think?" ”

"That's a good idea." Mrs. Gan nodded again and again, "It's auspicious, and it can show Master Jian's embroidery." ”

The two talked a lot, and Eleven Niang had dinner at Mrs. Gan's before replying.

Mother Song greeted her at the door of the weeping flowers: "Madam, you didn't have to leave for a quarter of an hour, Master Zhu and Aunt Seven are here." Mrs. Tai stayed for dinner, and was talking in the west! ”

Eleven Niang was very surprised: "When she wrote to me two days ago, she didn't mention the matter of going to Yanjing......"

Mother Song helped her get into the small oil car with green curtains: "It was decided temporarily." ”

This is like Qi Niang's character.

When the eleventh lady returned to the house, the three aunts stood under the eaves and waited to greet her, she said a few words hastily, then sent them away, and changed her clothes and went to Mrs. Tai.

When she entered the door, she heard a burst of laughter, and when she entered the west room, she saw Qi Niang and Mrs. Wu sitting next to Mrs. Tai on the left and right, talking happily, Xu Lingyi, Xu Lingkuan and Zhu Anping sat on the Taishi chair next to them with a smile and listened.

Seeing Eleven Niang coming in, Qi Niang, Fifth Lady, Xu Lingkuan and Zhu Anping all stood up and greeted her one after another.

Eleven Niang smiled and greeted everyone, and was held by Qi Niang's arm.

"Just waiting for you to come back." She said quickly: "We are discussing the Qixi Festival. He added, "I discussed with Danyang, and I will invite the seventh sister that day." The fifth master promised to help us go to the War Bureau to get some begging needles. ”

The Qixi Festival is a woman's festival, and Xufu will also prepare very grandly every year to play some games of throwing clever needles and knotting happy spiders.

"Don't worry, rest assured," Shi Niang said with a smile, "When the time comes, I will definitely prepare melon and fruit refreshments, flowers and incense burners, and I will never miss your business." ”

When Qi Niang heard this, she smiled at the fifth lady and said, "What my eleventh sister promised, I will definitely do it." You can rest assured. ”

The fifth lady smiled and thanked Eleven Niang: "Then there is the fourth sister-in-law!" ”

She presided over the feed, which was originally a matter of duty.

"Fifth brother and sister are polite to me!" Eleven Niang smiled and said a few words, and then changed the topic to where to invite the seventh sister.

Qi Niang and the Fifth Lady had a heated discussion.

And Xu Lingyi saw that the weather was not early, so he stood up: "There are still a few days left in this Qixi Festival, and it is time for curfew. You might as well rest here and talk about it early tomorrow morning. ”

The fifth lady and the seventh lady really fell in love, and when they heard the words, they left her: "You will rest with me today, and let the fifth master accompany Zhu Ye to rest in the west wing." ”

Xu Lingkuan listened and hurriedly said to Zhu Anping: "That's it, that's it, you and I will rest in the West Wing!" We're about the same height, so we're just going to wear my clothes. As he spoke, he turned the fifth lady and winked at him.

Zhu Anping remained silent, thought for a while and said: "It's hard to be gracious, so I will disturb the fifth master and the fifth lady." ”

Xu Lingkuan raised his eyebrows: "Don't bother, don't bother." ”

Mrs. Tai has always felt that the heirs of the Xu family are not prosperous, too thin, Zhu Anping is both an in-law and a steady old man's liking, the old lady is naturally happy to be close to them, and smiles at them: "Let's go and rest!" ”

Several people were afraid that Mrs. Tai would be tired, so they dispersed, and when they heard this, they smiled and saluted Mrs. Tai, went out of Mrs. Tai's yard together, and went back to the house with Xu Lingyi and his wife.

Xu Lingyi immediately called Lin Bolai: "Go, let's see what the fifth master is doing tonight?" ”

Eleven Niang immediately stopped him: "The fifth master is such a big person." What's more, there is Zhu Anping following on the side. He's not the kind of person who doesn't know what to do. ”

Xu Lingyi thought about it, washed up and rested.

But he couldn't sleep well.

When I went to greet Mrs. Tai early the next morning, I saw Xu Lingkuan looking tired.

He smiled a little embarrassedly: "I talked to my seventh brother-in-law for most of the night. ”

As a result, Zhu Anping directly changed from Zhu Ye to the seventh brother-in-law.

Eleven Niang pursed her lips and smiled.

Xu Lingyi coughed twice in embarrassment.

Happy Holidays to the Sisters!

Hee-hee......
