322 Rather than happy
Lin Yan asked again: "What's the matter with your nieces?" ”
Cao Shi further understood Lin Yan's straightforwardness, and did not beat around the bush, and said directly: "There are three girls in total, and the eldest Lin Jiao married into the second room of Jin Anbo's family, and she is the second sister-in-law of Dali Siqing." ”
Yes?
Jin Anbo's family has always been low-key, not inconspicuous, but a few children are promising.
Needless to say, the prince is a polite son; The third child, Zeng Hui, is Mo Ning's right-hand man.
But in this second room, Lin Yan hadn't heard of any deeds, she couldn't help but ask curiously: "Where is the second room of Jin Anbo's family now?" ”
Cao's face became strange: "If you go back to your mother, this second room is actually a concubine, only helping the family to do some chores, and there is no official position." ”
“……”
The long house is so pitiful, what kind of family are the girls marrying?
However, Lin Letong is also a concubine, and his own girl can marry the concubine of Xungui's family...... It's also fucking okay to get married.
It's good to believe that the Duke of Guo is a first-class mansion, and Jin Anbo is only a third-class uncle.
Lin Yan held her head and asked again, "What about the two?" ”
It was the two Lin Jiao and Lin Ling who rushed to disturb Wen Xinyu.
"The second Lin Jiao doesn't mention it, it's just a snob!" When Cao Shi mentioned this niece, he gritted his teeth a little: "I didn't support my aunt and grandmother Heli at the beginning, but later I saw that that one was gone, and I didn't go to condole!"
When I came back and coaxed my aunt and grandmother, I learned that the money in my aunt's hand was given to the sister who was outcast, and I didn't come to the door again! ”
Cao was a little angry, he didn't know how to pay New Year's greetings to his mother during the New Year, but he had the courage to harass Wen Xinyu, and he was not afraid of being beaten.
"Her mother-in-law's family is also a mother with milk!" The Cao family was reluctant to mention Lin Jiao, so he turned directly to Lin Ling: "Lingling is a good child, her husband's family is also honest, and she was born as a Jinshi, and she was born as a son-in-law."
It's a pity that her husband's family is poor, and she relies on Lin Ling's dowry to support it until now. Now that the Guogong Mansion has fallen, the mother-in-law's face is immediately not good-looking, and she scolds Huai all day long.
Fortunately, the husband was sensible and sent his mother-in-law back to his eldest brother's house. However, when Linlin greeted her aunt and grandmother during the New Year, she secretly cried a few times. ”
Cao's bar, click, click, and told all kinds of strange things about Lin Jiao and Lin Ling's family, Lin Yan listened to it with relish, and before she knew it, it was noon.
Dark Fragrance came in halfway to add tea twice, changed snacks once, and finally reminded carefully: "Where is the lunch?" ”
Cao Shi was shocked to realize that most of the time had passed, and he patronized the gossip of other people's families, but he forgot to ask Lin Yan about his intentions.
Could it be about the two nieces?
Cao got up with apprehension in his heart: "It's time for the concubine to go back first, if the mother has an arrangement, just send someone to order." ”
Whether it is a business, or a child who has a promising family in the future, it is not an exaggeration to climb to Ning Wangfu.
Cao's is used to doing business, and he only admits one reason: there is no hatred that cannot be forgotten, only endless interests.
Lin Yan seemed to be unsatisfied, how long had it been since she had such a happy gossip, she said: "No wonder the ladies in the palace like to summon foreign women into the palace, I used to feel bored, but now I understand the fun." ”
Sitting in the palace all day long and getting moldy, looking for someone to pass the boring time, listening to the gossip outside by the way, before I knew it, time passed, and my curiosity was satisfied.
Lin Yan had no intention of leaving Cao's family to eat, after all, Mo Ning was still waiting.
She stood up and said with a smile: "I forgot the time to talk to my wife today, but I forgot to get down to business." ”
Cao immediately pricked up his ears, for fear of missing a word.
"I have a merchant here, it seems that the business is still very big, the surname is ......" Lin Yan took out the note that Lin Shu wrote to herself and glanced at it: "The surname is Meng, he is in the porcelain business, and he lives in Tianshui Hutong." Can Mrs. Cao help me check this person's background? ”
Cao Shi didn't have time to think about it and nodded immediately, this little matter was not a problem at all, and it was handed over to her, the sister-in-law of the former eldest aunt.
No matter what the purpose, for the Cao family, it is to climb the ladder of the palace.
She said happily at the moment: "Is it a secret visit or go directly to the door?" ”
Lin Yan smiled: "Naturally, it is secret, does Madam know that this person is delusional about marrying the sixth girl of the Xinguo Mansion." ”
“……”
Mrs. Cao is speechless, now the merchants are so whimsical?
No wonder Lin Yan is reluctant to come forward.
She promised to come down, only saying that if there was news, it would be sent in.
Lin Yan asked Dark Xiang to send the Cao family out, and turned around and went back to the main room.
Mo Ning was waiting for her to eat, and the dishes were almost cold.
As soon as Lin Yan entered the house, he frowned: "You had a good conversation with that Mrs. Cao, don't you know that there is a hungry husband in the house?" ”
Lin Yan washed her hands with a smile and wiped the water on Mo Ning's face: "It's because I remember that I didn't leave Mrs. Cao to eat." ”
Mo Ning pulled her to sit down and asked, "Why are you chatting so happily?" ”
Lin Yan told Lin Jiao and Lin Ling about it.
Mo Ning was helpless: "You don't want to pay attention to these people, just ignore them." There is a set of rules for the appointment and dismissal of officials outside, if their husbands do a good job and have outstanding political achievements, will they still be snubbed because of the Xinguo Mansion?
This dynasty is the time to employ people, and it will not let go of a capable official, and besides, it is not the kind of nepotism that sold officials and lords in the previous dynasty, right? ”
Therefore, he really didn't understand what Lin Yan was busy with all day long.
Lin Yan was suddenly a little discouraged and said: "Looking at the history books, there are many talented people who are unwilling because they have offended the powerful.
Am I not afraid that as soon as you hear about the things related to the Xinguo Mansion, I am afraid that I will miss out on talents if I am not happy?
The feeling is self-inflicted, so I will stay in the inner house and not go anywhere, okay! ”
Wronged, really wronged!
"What kind of mood are you doing?" Mo Ning was puzzled: "Did I say I wouldn't let you go out?" It's just that I can't bear to see you working in vain. ”
"I'm working for nothing! I couldn't bear to go to the palace secretly, and I didn't find any useful tiger talismans!
Now I'm busy listening to other people's gossip, and I don't understand the rules of officialdom at all! In short, I was useless, I was, and I am! ”
As she spoke, Lin Yan became emotional, and tears flowed out as if she didn't want money.
Mo Ning was just disgusted by Emperor Jianyuan in the morning, and said that he wanted to give Jining Hou Jin a seal.
No merit and no virtue, what a seal to promote!
Mo Ning went back on the spot, and when he returned home to see Lin Yan happy, the other party became angry for some reason.
Mo Ning's brain was hot, and he got up and shook his sleeves: "Since I don't know where to provoke you, then I'd better go out and be quiet first!" ”
After saying that, he raised his feet and walked out.
Zhang Chuanxi was stupid at the door, and he glanced at Shuying and Lu Luo vigorously, and his eyes were about to cramp.
What can Shuying and Luluo do?
Naturally, it is the handkerchief who is handing the handkerchief, the comforting comfort, who can stop Mo Ning from leaving?
Lin Yan said angrily: "Don't come back if you leave, don't you just dislike me for being stupid, dislike me for not being a golden bird to make you happy!"
If you have the ability, you can bring in another side concubine, and I will immediately roll up the cover and leave! ”
God, what nonsense is this?
Mo Ning's hand behind him trembled angrily, and shouted at Zhang Chuanxi, who was standing at the door: "Can't go!" If you want to stay and serve, you don't want to see if people want you! ”
Zhang Chuanxi had a bitter face, and hurriedly caught up with Mo Ning's pace that almost fell.
Just the wind and the sun are beautiful, and there is no sign before the clouds are thick?
He suddenly remembered a sentence in a foreign book: marriage is a grave.
That's what it means, right?
