After waiting for the messenger to leave in the morning, Shi Niang called Chang Xuezhi again: "Go and inquire, how much is the gentleman invited by the Zhongshan Hou Tang family to cultivate every year?" ”

The person she sent to deliver the letter only came back at noon, accompanied by Luo Zhenxing.

"Your sister-in-law said that you were looking for me in a hurry, and sent someone to call me back from my museum." The eleventh sister has always been good at doing things, and she is rarely so eager, his expression is a little solemn, "But what happened?" ”

Eleven Niang asked Luo Zhenxing to speak in the east time. told him about Brother Chen's situation: "...... I want to ask the eldest brother to recommend Mr. Zhao to Master Hou! ”

Luo Zhenxing hesitated a little: "I heard that Lord Jin of the Hanlin Academy and others recommended several gentlemen, but the Hou Ye was not satisfied......

"Mr. Zhao's uncle is a protégé of Lord Liu and wants to come to the family to learn about the origins." Eleven Niang said, "The demon kings of the mixed world like our brother Yu have a lot of respect for Mr. Zhao, and they want to teach students very well. Brother Zhen can't afford to delay. The more he dragged him, the less confident he became, and the more he dragged the Hou Ye, the more dissatisfied he became. ”

As he was talking, Chang Xuezhi turned back.

Eleven Niang didn't avoid Luo Zhenxing and called him in.

He shrewdly saluted Luo Zhenxing. Back to Eleven Niang's words: "...... The gentleman invited by the Hou family in Zhongshan is twelve taels of silver for a year, a set of clothes for each season, and a small house. ”

The brother and sister looked at each other.

Mr. Zhao originally repaired in the Hou family of Zhongshan for fifteen taels of silver a year, and now the gentleman invited is twelve taels. With their family's harshness towards people, they are willing to pay an extra three taels of silver to invite that Mr. Zhao......

Eleven Niang and Luo Zhenxing both saw a faint insistence in each other's eyes.

Luo Zhenxing patted his chest and said, "I'll leave this matter to me!" I'll find a way to get him here. ”

It is naturally better for her uncle to come forward than for her stepmother.

"As for Shu Xiu or something, it's easy to say. As long as Mr. Zhao is satisfied. Eleven Niang muttered, "As for the Hou Ye...... Let's just say that you are very concerned about Brother Chen's studies, and when our brothers and sisters meet and talk about it, you will think about it! ”

Luo Zhenxing understood: "Don't worry, Master Hou knows what to say." And said, "Why didn't you see Master Hou?" ”

"He's in the outer court." Eleven Niang told Luo Zhenxing about the family's preparation to build a wing room, "...... Timber came in today. ”

"If a few children live with you, it's a little narrower." Luo Zhenxing nodded, and talked to Eleven Niang about Brother Zhen, "It's not that you can't endorse, how can you be afraid of Mr.?" "I don't understand it.

Eleven Niang couldn't understand: "Yes! "When she was a child, she looked forward to going to school and taking exams, so that she could show off in front of her parents, and so that her parents could show off." I've just heard of ...... before"

"Heard of it before?" Luo Zhenxing was surprised.

Eleven Niang knew that she had missed a breath. Hurriedly said vaguely: "I seem to have heard someone say it before." Some people are especially afraid to see Mr. It's just that I haven't seen it......" happened to be shown by the mother in charge, and she hurriedly changed the topic, "...... The day after tomorrow is the third day of March, and the family is going to invite the Deyin class, the longevity class and the incense club to sing in the hall, and there are many things. ”

Luo Zhenxing got up and said goodbye after hearing this: "Then you are busy with yours." Be careful with your body! ”

Eleven Niang left him to eat: "...... There is no hurry at this time. ”

When Luo Zhenxing heard the news, he rushed over, thinking that he would go to school in the library in the afternoon, so he didn't shirk.

Eleven Niang had lunch early, and asked the kitchen to make four meats, two vegetarian and one soup to entertain Luo Zhenxing.

Luo Zhenxing just sat down, and Xu Lingyi came.

"When did you come?" He blamed Eleven Niang, "Why don't you let people call me." ”

"I told Sister Eleven not to shout." Luo Zhensheng was afraid that Xu Lingyi would misunderstand, so he hurriedly smiled, "I heard that you are busy building a wing room at home, so I didn't let you call." ”

Xu Lingyi listened to the instructions and instructed Eleven Niang: "Bring the Taibailu that was rewarded in the palace last time." Add me a pair of chopsticks. ”

Luo Zhenxing hurriedly said: "I have to go to the museum in the afternoon, and the wine will be free!" ”

Xu Lingyi was not reluctant, took the chopsticks and accompanied Luo Zhenxing to eat a small half bowl of rice, and then went to the west to drink tea.

"Brother Zhen has been in school for more than half a month, so I came here to take a look." It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, Luo Zhenxing simply said, "Can you listen to the tone of the eleventh sister, it doesn't seem appropriate?" ”

Xu Lingyi glanced at Shi Niang and said with a wry smile: "I don't know who I followed!" Your sister is smart and clever, and I'm not such a cowardly person. ”

Luo Zhenxing took the opportunity to mention Mr. Zhao: "...... Why don't I help ask Mr. Zhao what he means? ”

Xu Lingyi didn't have much interest: "Let's talk about it then!" ”

Luo Zhenxing was secretly anxious in his heart, but he didn't say much, and talked a few words about the most popular government now-the ban on opening the sea, and seeing that it was not too early, he got up and said goodbye.

Xu Lingyi couldn't help but say Eleven Niang: "Brother Zhen is just not suitable for a while, and it will be fine after a long time." I don't need to tell Zhenxing about it! ”

"Isn't the concubine in a hurry?" Eleven Niang told Xu Lingyi about Brother Chen's ability to recite "Kindergarten" fluently in front of her, and muttered, "Master Hou has a straight face, and even the concubine is afraid in his body and mind, let alone Brother Zhen!" ”

Xu Lingyi was speechless for a while.

Seeing that he didn't make a sound, Eleven Niang took the opportunity to persuade: "Master Hou, the eldest brother is also good for Brother Zhen." Hou Ye finally looked at the people and said it. so as not to disappoint the kindness of the eldest brother. As he spoke, he sighed slightly, "What's more, this is just the words of the eldest brother's family." Whether Mr. Zhao is willing to come or not is a matter of two words. ”

Xu Lingyi couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she heard this.

Eleven Niang created momentum for Mr. Zhao: "When Mr. Zhao left Beijing, someone invited him to go to Xixi. At that time, he pushed it on the grounds that he was entrusted by his third aunt to send his fifth and sixth brothers back to Shanxi. So when the eldest brother heard me say that Brother Zhen was afraid of Mr., he remembered the stubbornness of the fifth and sixth brothers, so he moved his mind to invite Mr. Zhao. ”

Xu Lingyi really became interested, and bowed slightly: "Then let's talk about it when I see someone." ”

It's always good to have a chance to give it a try!

Eleven Niang breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Lingyi's eyes fell on the kang table, and she wrote half of the letter.

"For Miss Gan's Seventh!" Eleven Niang explained with a smile, "She later invited me to her house as a guest...... This time, I want to invite her over to be lively...... March 26 is the day of the cabinet, and I don't know if I can come! The tone was a little stunned.

I met on the third day of March that year, Daughter's Day!

Xu Lingyi thought of what happened that year, and her eyes darkened slightly. comforted Eleven Niang: "The Liang family is in Yanjing. There will be opportunities in the future! ”

Seeing his expression, Eleven Niang changed the topic with a smile: "I think so too." So write a letter to her. Let's see if she can come. ”

Xu Lingyi didn't want to mention it more, and asked how Eleven Niang was preparing: "...... If you can't keep busy, let the camera help you. He was the one who was in the middle of things, and I looked astute, so I took it with me. I usually follow me and have no less knowledge. ”

I'm afraid that she won't have enough experience in holding such a banquet for the first time, right?

Eleven Niang smiled: "It's all done according to the old routine, and the mothers in charge are also experienced, so there won't be any big incidents!" ”

Although I was very grateful, I didn't dare to accept it - taking the photo with me would definitely be twice the result with half the effort. But in the eyes of those who have a heart, it will become a reason to attack her.

Xu Lingyi saw that her eyes were bright, full of energy, and she looked full of confidence, so she didn't say much, but she told her to watch more when the time came, and to help run errands if there was anything.

In the afternoon, the fifth master sent the repertoire of the three opera troupes over.

The Deyin class sang "The Story of the Embroidered Shirt", the Changsheng class sang "The Story of Huansha", and the Jiexiang Society sang "The Story of the Broken Kiln".

He was also a little worried that Eleven Niang would not be able to control the situation by then, and said in a low voice: "I have all instructed." The three opera troupes were helped by Sibao Zhang Luo. He has been running drama classes with me since he was a child, and he is familiar with all personnel. At that time, the fourth sister-in-law only needs to greet several old ladies! ”

It's just that a song and dance troupe came to perform at home, and Eleven Niang had already arranged it. But she still accepted Xu Lingkuan's kindness. Sincerely thanked him and personally sent him to the door.

Being able to help Eleven Niang, Xu Lingkuan was very happy, and walked briskly when he walked.

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

Back in the house, Midori took the clothes from the sewing room.

The pink right jacket and turquoise skirt are worn on the body of Eleven Niang, like a budding spring flower.

The sand-green gown, the moon-white skirt, is fresh and natural, like a bud on the branch outside the window.

Apricot yellow placket jacket, true purple moon skirt, rich and gorgeous, Yongrong luxury.

Eleven Niang is very satisfied. instructed Yanrong: "On the first day, comb the peony bun and prepare two pearl combs." The next day, comb the snail bun and prepare the set of ginkgo biloba red and silver noodles. On the third day, comb the bun and use the ruby head. ”

Lu Yun nodded again and again, and Eleven Niang asked about Sister Zhen'er: "Are her things ready?" ”

"Ready!" She smiled and said, "According to your orders, an apricot-white gown, a blue gold gown, and a honey-colored placket." ”

Eleven Niang asked her to invite Aunt Wen over.

"When the time comes, the ladies from all the provinces will come." She explained to Aunt Wen carefully, "Sister Zhen is the eldest lady in our house, so naturally she will come forward to help entertain her." It's just that she still has a filial piety period now, and it is not appropriate to stay in Dianchun Hall to watch the play. I want to put them in Liufangwu. As you know, Liufangwu is a good place for boating, kite flying, and fishing. It's just waterfront, so it's not very safe. That day, Du's mother took Brother Zhen and Brother Jie's Lijingxuan in the second young master's Lijingxuan. I don't worry about the others, so I can only ask you to help take care of them. He reminded her again: "After the eldest sister's removal ceremony in April, Sister Zhen is going to talk about her mother-in-law's family." Now that there are so many guests, it's a great opportunity. You have to be careful. ”

The words are so clear, not to mention that Aunt Wen is a shrewd person. Naturally, she said yes and left happily. Go back and rummage through the cabinets to find clothes - that is, you can't be too simple and lose the face of the Xu family; can't be too luxurious, stealing the limelight of Eleven Niang. I tossed the autumn red and the winter red for a night.

Eleven Niang called Aunt Qin to come: "The second young master has Mother Du to take care of her, you don't have to worry." Aunt Wen has to help take care of Sister Zhen'er. Only you and Aunt Qiao were left at home......"

Without waiting for her words to finish, Aunt Qin immediately said, "Then, then I'll go and be with Aunt Yi!" She was guarding a big house alone, and she couldn't help but feel a little panicked. ”

Eleven Niang nodded and instructed Yan Rong: "At that time, there will only be Aunt Qin and Aunt Qiao in the family." The maids and mothers-in-law on duty listened to the noise of the gongs and drums in the spring hall, and they would inevitably run to see the excitement. You stay at home and help me town. ”

Yan Rong nodded: "Madame, don't worry." There I am! ”

※

There are guests at home, and it's a little late, so let's get up tomorrow morning and watch it!

The manuscript was sent in a bit of a hurry, I will catch insects later, please forgive me!
