401 Smug

The old lady carried Wang Linzhi into the upper room.

The fourth lady was busy laughing with pleasure, took a plate of watermelons and a plate of melons from the maid's hand and put them on the small table in front of Wang Linzhi, and said with a smile on her face: "This was just sent from our own Zhuangzi, and it was picked in the morning, and we haven't tasted it yet." ”

As soon as these words were spoken, the room fell silent at once, and the old lady glared at the fourth lady with displeasure.

A room full of elders, Wang Linzhi is noble again, but now she is a Gu housewife, how can she eat alone in front of so many elders?

The fourth lady was also shocked to realize that she had said the wrong thing, and her face turned red.

She had already stopped trying to grasp Wang Linzhi's thoughts, and she was telling the truth, but this truth made everyone in the room so embarrassed that they didn't know how to answer.

"Then I'll taste the sweetness for the old lady and the elders first." Wang Linzhi calmly picked a piece of melon with a toothpick and took a small bite.

Fortunately, this thing is nothing in the Gu family, Zhuangzi directly pulled an ox cart over in the morning, and sent it according to reason, and it should be placed in front of the old lady first, and the blame is that the fourth wife has itchy hands and messed things up.

Fortunately, Wang Linzhi answered like that, and everyone laughed together, and the girls rushed in, and everyone had it in front of them.

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased somewhat, the third lady hurriedly smiled: "There is less rain this year, and our watermelons are planted on the sand, which are very sweet. ”

Seeing that they all began to show favor to Wang Linzhi, the eldest lady couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in her heart, so she also put on a smiling face, "There are also peanuts sent, the peanuts that have just been picked are boiled in salted water, and they are also delicious, let the kitchen get some out and give them to the county lord to taste." ”

The old lady saw that several daughters-in-law were entertaining Wang Linzhi, so she beckoned the nurse to carry a few brothers to her, looked at them one by one, and then held Brother Ren in her arms, picked the watermelon seeds with a toothpick, and then scooped them with a spoon and fed them to Brother Ren.

The nurse taught him beside her, "This is my great-grandmother, brother, thank my great-grandmother." ”

The old lady felt that this lady was very clever, and she was happy to say a few words to her, "Three turns, six sittings, nine climbs, shouting that great-grandmother is still early." ”

How do you think that Brother Ren saw that the adults were talking, there were many people, and it was very lively, so he giggled, and after laughing, he looked at Wang Linzhi and shouted "Niangniang".

Wang Linzhi was chatting with a few wives at this time, and she didn't pay attention to him at all.

The old lady saw it in her eyes and was afraid that he would cry, so she handed him a rattle to play with.

When the fourth lady saw it, she hurriedly smiled and said, "After the old lady came back, she personally went to the street several times to choose gifts for the children. ”

Wei Yi sat there with her head down and drank tea, but said in her heart: This made people who didn't know hear it, and thought that the old lady liked children so much, in fact, her eldest son, the eldest great-grandson of the old lady, has been enlightened for two years, and from childhood to adulthood, how could he have received a gift that the old lady "selected"?

However, this thought was just a moment, since Wang Linzhi was going to marry into the Gu family, she understood that there was no comparison between them at all, even if it was a comparison, it was she who lost.

Rather than that, it's better to relax.

It's just a little gadget, the old lady doesn't buy it, she can afford it herself.

Wei Ming has been fighting in the army in the past few years, and he has quietly collected some things, and privately subsidized some of her, plus Gu Huan now has an errand, although there are not many people, but in private, several families have prepared generous gifts for Gu Huan to guide their children to study, which can be regarded as having extra income, and occasionally the Xiang family will also privately subsidize her, she put the silver together and set up a shop that sells the four treasures of the study, the business is not good, but it is not bad. In addition, the mother-in-law doesn't care about the affairs of the house, the husband is willing to be motivated, and the children listen to their own words, so these superficial little things, if there is no one, there will be no one.

This little thing is quickly figured out by adults, but not by children.

Wei's second son, Brother Jing, looked at his empty hands, and then looked at the rattle in Brother Ren'er's hand, and couldn't help but walk freely on his short legs, ran to the old lady to follow, and stretched out his hand to Brother Ren.

Wei wanted to call her son back, but she was afraid of attracting everyone's attention, but she didn't open her mouth, in case her son took Brother Ren'er's toys away, and Brother Ren cried, it is estimated that these elders present would immediately accuse her and Brother Jing.

She was blamed, but the key is that her son is still so young, do you have to start looking at people's faces? Don't call it back, the children are really making trouble, and it must be her brother Jing who is being trained.

Everyone in the room looked at Brother Ren, curious if he would give the rattle to Brother Jing.

Only Wang Linzhi smiled slightly and didn't say anything.

Brother Ren had already handed the rattle in his hand to Brother Jing without hesitation, and not only that, but also shouted "brother".

Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Linzhi drank her own tea all day long.

These little toys, just when the quadruplets were full moon, I don't know how much they received, and now I'm tired of playing with them, I'm afraid that Brother Ren is hoping that someone will take them.

The old lady was very satisfied when she saw that Brother Ren gave the toys to Brother Jing, and ordered: "Open this box and give each child a few toys." ”

The girl was already laughing, "When I got up in the morning, the slaves had already been divided, and each brother's was put together and the name was written. ”

The old lady nodded appreciatively.

Wei smiled heartily, fortunately he was calm enough, otherwise he would have made a fool of himself.

But she saw the old lady looking at her and said, "There is only one set of the eighteen arhats, so let's give it to Brother Ren." ”

Wei was busy.

Although it was unfair, it was finally explained and proved that the old lady still had them in her heart.

The fourth lady had already screamed, "Is my mother talking about the set of pure gold Arhats you built before?" ”

The old lady shook her head, "That's just for outsiders to listen to it, in fact, it's gilded, how many times have I told you, sincerity is spiritual." ”

Gilding is to synthesize gold and mercury into gold mercury, apply it to the surface of copperware, and then heat it to evaporate the mercury, and the gold is attached to the surface of the vessel.

That's not much value.

The fourth wife was skeptical, and did not dare to continue to dwell on this topic.

The eldest lady smiled and said to Wang Linzhi: "I heard that Wang Tingshi is going to hold a banquet for the county lord to catch the wind and wash the dust?" ”

But Wang Linzhi was only a little later than Wei's, could it be that the banquet was not today?

Wang Linzhi smiled at her, "When I go back to my home, I naturally have to meet the elders first." ”

It's really a talker, not to mention that the old lady was happy to hear this, even the ladies in the house felt very comfortable when they heard it.
