Chapter 526: Catching the Week (Part II)

Chapter 526: Catching the Week (Part II)

This is not a pleasant topic.

Eleven Niang smiled and pointed to the pea yellow made in the shape of begonia flowers on the kang table: "Sister try it, this year's fresh pea flour is made." He added, "My sister should come early in two days." ”

Two days later is the first birthday of Brother Jin'er.

"Definitely, definitely." Mrs. Zhou said, seeing that the peas were yellow and golden, crystal clear, and her index finger was wide open, and she tasted a piece. It was sweet and refreshing, and the mood was a lot better, and there was a faint smile on his face. "I came this time and brought something for Brother Jin'er." Then he took out a purse with white cranes embroidered with white cranes on a big red background from his sleeves and came out, "Give Brother Jin a week to use." ”

In front of Mrs. Zhou, Eleven Niang didn't open it, so she felt that she took it heavily, thanked her with a smile, and talked to Mrs. Zhou about the weather these days: "...... There are even late osmanthus flowers. The weather is warm like March. Looking at it like this, I don't know if there will be snow this year? ”

"There are times when there is no snow." Mrs. Zhou, a native of Yanjing, said with a smile, "I heard from the older generation that there was no snow in the winter of the three years of Jianwu. ”

"Isn't the harvest in arrears?" Eleven Niang smiled and gossiped with Mrs. Zhou, and the Fang family came over.

Eleven Niang hurriedly asked the little maid to come in, and introduced her to Mrs. Zhou.

"Your daughter-in-law is really beautiful." Mrs. Zhou took Fang's hand and couldn't stop praising it. Fang was a little embarrassed, but he was able to thank Mrs. Zhou generously, seeing that Mrs. Zhou couldn't stop nodding, and asked Fang what books he usually reads and what pastimes he has, and the two talked very speculatively.

A few of these times, Fang's personal maid dangled outside the curtain, and Fang's was unmoved. Eleven Niang just didn't see it.

Mrs. Zhou saw that she had been out for a long time, and got up to say goodbye.

Eleven Niang accompanied her to bid farewell to Mrs. Tai.

Fang's was also on the side.

After seeing off Mrs. Zhou, Fang accompanied Shi Niang back to the main house.

"My mother-in-law has not been in the house for the past few years, and there are many things, and I can't leave. The sixth uncle is about to celebrate his first birthday, so he has time to come and sit with his aunt. She smiled and asked the little maid to bring over a box with cold wood and no lacquer, "This is a little bit of my heart with Xianggong, and I hope my aunt will not dislike it." ”

Eleven Niang took it with a smile: "My own people, I don't need to be so polite." ”

"It's just the icing on the cake for Uncle Six." Fang Shi said a few words modestly and got up to leave.

Eleven Niang asked Zhu Xiang to send her out, and called Qiu Yu to ask: "What happened to the maid next to the young grandmother just now looking for the eldest young grandmother?" ”

"Said that the third lady sent someone to ask, why does it take so long to give a gift?"

Eleven Niang was a little surprised when she heard this.

I didn't expect the third lady to be so harsh on Fang's family. Judging from Fang's actions just now, I am afraid that it is not the kind of person who takes the third lady at will and has no opinions. Between this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, I am afraid that there will be some running-in. It's better for her to stay away from the third room in the future!

With a decision, he opened the box sent by the Fang clan.

It contains a copy of "Kindergarten Learning". The blue cover, the yellowed pages, and the slightly rolled corners of the book look a little old. Flip it open, the whole official book, the body is square and round, dignified and generous, it looks simple and interesting, and it comes from the hands of famous artists at a glance.

Eleven Niang was moved.

This is clearly an ancient text.

Money has a price, but ancient books are priceless!

Does the third lady know the value of this book? If she knew, how could she be willing to give it? If you don't know, how did the Fang clan tell the third lady?

And Qiu Yu saw that Eleven Niang was holding the book and pondering for a long time, and thought that she was a little dissatisfied with the things sent by the other party, so she laughed softly: "Madam, look at the things sent by Mrs. Zhou......"

Eleven Niang let out an "oh", cheered up, and said, "Show me!" ”

Qiu Yu smiled and handed over the purse.

It contains a red gold god of wealth.

No wonder it feels heavy. Looking at it like this, there are also more than 20 taels.

Eleven Niang smiled and let Qiu Yu take it: "Use it when the sixth young master catches Zhou!" Then he whispered a few words to Qiu Yu.

The autumn rain went away, and at dusk he said back and forth: "...... The third lady said that she would send a congratulatory gift to the sixth young master's first birthday, and the eldest young grandmother was a new daughter-in-law, so there was no need to send a congratulatory gift, just follow her to the banquet when the time comes. The eldest young grandmother said that the eldest young master is now a family and an adult, and they live under the same roof with you, so they follow the third lady to the banquet, so that others know that they are afraid that the eldest young master is not sensible. The third lady thought for a while and said, if you want to give gifts, according to the old practice, children will give gold and silver lock pieces and other utensils for 100 days, and some food and toys for the first birthday gift. Just send some of that drum and stuff over when the time comes. When the eldest grandmother heard this, she said that she saw a lot of playthings of the sixth young master on weekdays, and she was afraid that she would be disgusted if she gave these things. Since it is the first birthday, it is definitely necessary to catch the week, so it is better to send some things to catch the week. Mrs. Tai knew about it, and she liked it in her heart. Then I discussed with the third lady, should I go to Duobao Pavilion to buy a set of four treasures in the study room and send them over? Or choose two books from the marriage of the young grandmother and send them over. When the third lady heard this, she immediately said that she would choose two books from the young grandmother's marriage and send them over. The young grandmother sent the book over. ”

Eleven Niang was a little dumbfounded when she heard this.

Is this a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fight?

In the evening, I went to greet Mrs. Tai and met the Fang family, and Shi Niang thanked the Fang family implicitly: "...... I wanted to use it to catch Zhou for Brother Jin'er, but I was afraid that the child would not be sensible and would not know how serious it would be. I'm going to put it aside and wait for Brother Jin to be older, and I'll give it to him when I have a study. When you catch Zhou, just find a random copy in Hou Ye's study! ”

The third lady was a little unhappy when she heard this, and said, "It's just a book, if it's broken, let Brother Jin go to the sister-in-law to pick another one." I think, you don't have to be so troublesome, just use the book sent by Brother Qin to catch Zhou! This is also the brotherhood of Brother Qin, who is a big brother. ”

If you can use the things sent by relatives and friends to catch Zhou, it means that the things sent by relatives and friends are more valuable than the things prepared by themselves, and it is a very long-faced thing for those relatives and friends who send things. When the third lady said this, she also hoped that everyone would know that her son gave a big gift for her brother's first birthday.

Mrs. Tai naturally hoped that her brother Yiyi, and when she heard the words, she let out an "oh" and said, "Brother Qin'er sent something to Brother Jin'er to catch Zhou?" "Very interested.

A trace of hesitation flashed between Eleven Niang's expressions.

If the Third Lady knew the value of this book, would she be angry with the Fang Clan?

She hesitated, "I gave the book." "Didn't say much.

Mrs. Tai was a shrewd person, so she didn't ask again, but turned the topic to the banquet, and instructed the third lady: "Since you are at home, help greet the guests when the time comesβ€”your fourth brother and sister are not in good health, and the fifth brother and sister's brother is still young, so he can't leave it for a while." He added, "Brother Qin's daughter-in-law also followed your mother-in-law to recognize people." Then let's talk about the menu for the banquet.

The third lady still wanted to talk about this, but when she saw that Mrs. Tai didn't mention it anymore, and she had something to order, she had to give up and cheer up to reply to Mrs. Tai's words.

And the fifth lady saw that Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Third were talking lively, so she pulled the sleeve of Eleven Niang's coat and asked her quietly: "What the hell are you doing?" ”

Eleven Niang was puzzled.

"What's that book?" The fifth lady smiled slyly, "Don't tell me that you are afraid that the two brothers will be in the limelight and deliberately suppress this matter?" ”

Eleven Niang looked at her as if she was not afraid of the stage height, and didn't dare to tell her, so she only pursed her lips and smiled.

The fifth lady's eyes rolled straight up, and she privately instigated the lady to ask.

Mrs. Tai smiled: "I asked earlier. Eleven Niang said that the eldest young grandmother gave Bengu a loan to Brother Jin'er, which was too precious, and she was afraid that it would be damaged. ”

"Brothers are both brothers, and the calyxes are shining." The fifth lady was tired of being by Mrs. Tai's side, "Such a good thing should be taken out to show off." How can you walk at night in brocade? No wonder the third sister-in-law was unhappy that day, if it were me, I would be unhappy too. ”

Mrs. Tai didn't fall for her, and said with a smile: "Your fourth sister-in-law said, your third sister-in-law may not know the preciousness of this ancient book." Their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had a gap, and they closed the door to fight, but they couldn't let others see the jokes. ”

The fifth lady smiled when she heard this.

Since Mrs. Tai knew that her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were in trouble, she said "close the door and fight", obviously to see the excitement of the third room.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but perk up, and felt that the future days seemed to be suddenly a lot more interesting.

* * * * * *

On the day of Brother Jin'er's first birthday, Eleven Niang got up early in the morning, changed Brother Jin'er into a small red silk jacket with five bats holding clouds, and then was led by Mrs. Tai to incense the three gods, and then went to the flower hall.

Just stood still, Mrs. Zhou came.

came with her, as well as Twelve Niang.

Eleven Niang was a little surprised.

Mrs. Zhou smiled: "I am entrusted by my sister-in-law. ”

The sister-in-law she said refers to the mother-in-law of the Twelfth Mother.

can get such love from her mother-in-law, it can be seen that Twelve Niang has gained a firm foothold in the Wang family.

Eleven Niang is also happy for Twelfth Niang. She smiled and took the hand of the Twelve Niangs: "This is the blessing of our Twelve Niangs." ”

"Not really." Mrs. Zhou said with a smile, "Now my sister-in-law praises everyone and says that I have done a good family affair for my nephew." Even with me, I have now become a celebrity, and several sisters-in-law have come to me to be a matchmaker for my nephew. ”

Eleven Niang smiled: "It's good that I didn't embarrass my sister." ”

Twelve Niang listened to the two with a red face, and Grandma Huang San came with Mrs. Huang in her arms.

Everyone stepped forward to salute, and Mother Du walked in with Mrs. Tang and Mrs. Tang Si talking and laughing.

There was no commotion among the people.

Then Mrs. Lin, Grandma Lin, Mrs. Gan and others came one after another.

The housekeeper's mother saw that the auspicious time was approaching, and came out of the big red sandalwood carved case pointed out by Mrs. Tai in the library, and placed the four treasures of the study, abacus, food box, general helmet, spinning top, wine order chip and other things around the big case.

Twelfth Niang pulled Eleven Niang, who was talking to Mrs. Huang, and said in a low voice: "Eleventh sister, why hasn't the fourth sister arrived yet?" ”

There are many guests, she doesn't say it, and Eleven Niang hasn't noticed it yet. As soon as she said this, Eleven Niang couldn't help but be a little worried-Siniang has always acted very safely, even if something can't come, she will send someone to say it. In such a late situation, it is the first time that Eleven Niang has encountered it.

"I'll send someone to take a look!"

As soon as her words fell, Siniang walked in.
