In the end, there are many people who have more money and work harder. At the eleventh day of the first month, the house on Wanxiang Street was completely cleaned up---- which also removed the tenth day of the first month was the "stone birth", all stone tools were not used, and it was not easy to break the ground, so the work was suspended for a day. The real construction period was only two and a half days.

As soon as the matter was finished at eleven o'clock, Wei Di came to report the news and asked the master to go over and check.

Originally, there was no sacrifice in eleven and twelve, and Nian Liang thought that he would come out to see the house, but he was stopped by the second lady, saying that he had to get on and off the car, and it was always inconvenient for the wheelchair to rest in the car...... So I refused to let go out of the house anyway.

Nian Yu had no choice but to appoint Xia Xiaoman as the plenipotentiary and go to check it out.

Xia Xiaoman couldn't help but go out for a walk, and Wei Di couldn't help this aunt nǎinǎi to come to accept--- not for anything else, at least aunt nǎinǎi was not as picky as the master!

When I arrived at the house on Wanxiang Street, I saw that the plaque of Jifu had been hung up, and the door was also repainted. The courtyard is also good, the two paths that have been changed have been paved, the plants on the rockery have been removed, the lanterns have been hung and decorated, and the house is also standing neatly, and the windows are almost spotless.

It's a beautiful job. Xia Xiaoman praised a few housekeepers for a while, and then distributed the reward money according to the predetermined level of the year, and asked everyone to withdraw, leaving only two old servants to guard the door. Everything is ready, just wait for the guests to check in before the city gate on the eleventh day of the first month, and a letter will be sent to the next year's house, saying that the Ji family will be able to enter the city the next day.

So on the morning of the twelfth day of the first month. After many rehearsals, the welcoming procedures began to be implemented, and the Dawei housekeeper took people to the city gate to pick them up, personally sent the Ji family to the mansion, and the second-class housekeeper took the Ji family's servants to the Ji Mansion on Wanxiang Street; Xiao Wei's housekeeper and his wife waited in the Ji Mansion first, and when they arrived, they helped to settle the luggage and familiarize themselves with the environment; Because the second lady had already told the old lady that she wanted to keep the Ji family's mother and daughter for a while, Xia Xiaoman was assigned to the second lady's wild goose home to receive them together.

At the beginning of the year. Finally waiting for the Ji family to enter the house, but the return of the wild goose was not ushered in by the mother and daughter of the Ji family who came to wash first. It's a bunch of cages.

The big girl who went back and forth looked at the second lady's face cautiously. said: "The slave maid had already spoken to the door, and then the aunt and wife. But the sister-in-law of Kou over there brought someone over and said that she would directly lead her aunt and wife to see the old lady. The slave maid said that Mrs. asked Mrs. Auntie to come over first and return to the house to wash, and Mrs. Aunt also said that she was covered in dust, and it would be disrespectful to go directly to see the old lady without washing, but Sister-in-law Kou said that it was okay, and said that the old lady had waited for a long time. My aunt didn't have a good idea to say anything, so she had to follow them. ”

It has always been the case that the pick-up and drop-off of human favors are all managed by the four nǎinǎi, which is not considered transgression, but this is the face of the second lady.

The second lady hadn't opened her mouth yet. Qing Rong on the side took the first step and said: "Sister-in-law Kou picks and pinches it softly!" Qingmian, you are also noodles, just stab her twice! ---- is the words of the four nǎinǎi, can you go past our wife? Our wife invited someone to come over, but she didn't receive anyone, and what could she not pay for! ”

These two maids have been with the second lady for ten years, and their names are master and servant. But since the eldest lady got married. The second lady has always treated them as daughters, and she spoils them more and punishes them less. The two of them are not taboo when they talk, and when there are no outsiders behind closed doors, it is common to interject and quarrel.

Qingmian was a little aggrieved, she was not the one who let anyone pinch her, she was really not good at arguing in front of her aunt, and Sister-in-law Kou also brought out the old lady, she flattened her mouth and said: "Where does she dare to say that it means four nǎinǎi?" She only said that it was the old lady's meaning, where can I refute this! ”

The second lady laughed dryly, waved her hand, and said, "Kou Hui's daughter-in-law has always been upside down, don't be her anything." The Ji family's luggage was delivered? ”

Qingmian hurriedly said: "It's delivered." Two maids went with their aunts, and the rest of the servants brought them, and waited outside to kowtow to their wives. You are going to the old lady's side now, and the slave maid will call them first......"

The second lady said lightly: "Don't be busy." Let's call in first. ”

At this time, the servants of the Ji family who came with the cage were two maids, two daughters-in-law and four rough mothers-in-law. Seeing that the two maids are not very old, they are neatly dressed, and they must be serving the young lady; And the two daughters-in-law are also well-dressed, and they are both housekeepers' daughters-in-law. Everyone came in and kowtowed to the second lady to say hello, and the second lady said two words of hard work, and explained that their luggage was placed in the east chamber, and ordered Qingrong to bring someone over to help.

At the end, after calling them to go, the second lady turned to Qingmian and said, "Change clothes and freshen up." Man Niang," her gaze fell on Xia Xiaoman again, and said, "Follow me to the old lady's side to meet the guests in a while." ”

Xia Xiaoman hurriedly got up and responded, then looked at the second lady's neat clothes and hair, clicked her eyes, and offered to help Qingrong go to greet the servants of the Ji family. The second lady smiled and responded.

The cages on the east side of the box were opened, and several people were about to start tidying up, when they saw Xia Xiaoman coming in, the servants of the Ji family hurriedly came over to greet them, and they had just heard Qing Rong introduce that this was Aunt Xia in the sixth master's room, and they all knew that the sixth master was a serious relative, and they all heard that there was only one concubine in the sixth master's room, because they didn't know why the sixth master only had this one woman, but she was extremely favored, so although she saw that her appearance and clothes were ordinary, she didn't dare to slack off at all.

After seeing the ceremony, they signed up for their surnames one by one, and the two maids were really serving Miss Ji, and their names were Fuxing and Lanyue; The two housekeepers' daughters-in-law, one of whom is surnamed Qi, is the family of Ji Qi's wife, who is half a relative and half a servant, and is called Qi's sister-in-law; The other is a servant of the Ji family, whose husband's name is Ji Huan, and he is called Huan's sister-in-law.

Xia Xiaoman was not indifferent to these false courtesies, and said politely, and directly ordered to hurry up and clean up, lest Mrs. and Miss come back and have no place to sit and lie down.

Everyone began to get busy, Qing Rong took the two little maids to point out where to put the cabinet and what to put in the box, but Xia Xiaoman was fine, so he watched the two little maids pack up the bits and pieces.

The two of them first took the tea set and the incense burner out and set them up, and these Xia Xiaoman also helped her bring fennel when she returned to her parents' house, so she was not surprised. But gradually, she came out unexpectedly.

The four treasure boxes and vase decorations in the study room are all okay, and then they turned out to be a few pots of green sè potted plants, one of which also bloomed beautifully with light blue sè flowers. Then, as if by magic, he took out the cage containing the live birds, stood the parrot stand of the live parrot, and the white porcelain jar with the live goldfish--- the water was still rippling. In the last uncovered flat square box is a pitch-black kitten with a pinch of white fur on its forehead!

Xia Xiaoman was surprised that his chin was about to hit the surface of his feet, and he couldn't help but go over and poke the cat in the box. Fingertips touch real fur. A piece of warmth, the cat purred. Bared his teeth and stretched out his claws to scratch her, there was no doubt that she was alive. O God! She wondered how the animals had survived the long journey in the boxes.

She thought that the time she went back to her parents' house, the fennel cardamom packed up enough things for her, just like moving, but now compared to it, it was a small thing,---- Miss Ji not only moved, but even brought the zoo!

"Forehead snow. Don't make a fuss. Lanyue was afraid that the cat would hurt people, so she scolded her and grabbed her little paw back.

What? Xia Xiaoman was stunned. Lanyue has a somewhat dialect accent, and the cat's name evokes a bit like English. Xia Xiaoman smacked his lips and said in his heart. Why do you give a cat a foreign name? There is England in this world. Or is this Miss Ji also a crosser? She hurriedly asked Lanyue what the cat's name was.

Lan Yue pointed to a handful of snow-white fluff the size of a copper coin on the cat's forehead, and said with a smile: "Hui Aunt nǎinǎi's words." My lady said that the cat's forehead was like snow, so she called it this name. ”

Xia Xiaoman has a black line, snow on his forehead, hey, sour and awkward. She narrowed her eyes at the cat.

She had a cat at the same table in high school, and the cat was snow-white, with only two black lines on its forehead, like the so-called sword eyebrows in the book, and she named the cat ---- "Erjo" at the same table. She joked with her table mates at the time, saying that if she had a dog in the future, she would definitely name it "Fifty Wan".

And now, she doesn't have a dog named "Fifty Thousand", but she has a ...... Not...... A cat that can be called "a pie".

Lanyue put down the cat and pressed it, as if it could understand human words, and softly told it not to run around, and then turned around to tidy up the things on the side, took out the fur fur, brocade mattress, forging quilt and other things, and discussed the order of laying on the bed with the whisk, and was entangled in the matching of pillows and curtains.

Xia Xiaoman looked at them a little bit of a headache, shook his head helplessly, and looked down at the cat, which also stared at Xia Xiaoman with a pair of round eyes.

A smile crept up the corners of Xia Xiaoman's mouth.

A pie. She stretched out her fingers, dodged the cat's waving little paws, pressed its white head, and silently said, a cake, you will call it a cake in the future, how simple this name is! Simplicity is beauty.

When they arrived at the outer courtyard of Songhe Hall, the little maids saw the second lady enter the door, and hurriedly went inside: "The second lady is here!" ……”

Several housekeepers, daughters-in-law, and mothers-in-law who were serving in the outer courtyard also came over to greet them, and when they heard this, they hurriedly greeted them, and said with a smile: "Uncle Niang, go in quickly, Aunt Ji has been here for a while, so I will wait for you, Uncle Niang." ”

The second lady had a smile on her face, her eyes swept over coldly, glanced at the sister-in-law behind her, and said indifferently: "If a guest comes, it is rude to meet without changing clothes." So it's a little late. ”

Si nǎinǎi was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "What Uncle Niang said is extremely true. While personally picking up the curtain and inviting the second lady inside, he turned his head and glared at Sister-in-law Kou. Sister-in-law Kou lowered her head, but secretly pursed her lips.

Xia Xiaoman took a deep breath and crossed the threshold, his mind was full of scenes of Lin Daiyu entering Jiafu in the TV series, and he didn't know how similar the current situation could be.

The result was completely different, not like a lively meeting with relatives, but like a negotiation meeting, the guests and hosts sat down on both sides and had a cordial and friendly conversation.

The old lady is in the middle seat, the fourth lady is the first on the right, and there is an empty chair next to it, and then the third lady. Further down are a few young ladies in the house who have not yet left the cabinet. The first woman in plain clothes sitting on the left is in her forties, with a long face, delicate eyebrows, and a very similar eyebrow peak and face shape to Nian Liang, which is Ji Zheng's family. Next to him was a young woman in her early twenties, with two boys in her arms, which was Ji Qishi, Ji Songshu's wife. Further down are a few nǎinǎi in the Nianfu.

Xia Xiaoman was a little confused about the distribution of this pattern, but it was not good to raise his head and stare at the people carefully, only glanced at it twice, then lowered his head and jaw in a regular manner, and moved forward with small steps behind the second lady.

The second lady gave the old lady a salute, and laughed and talked with Ji Zheng's family, and then sat down at the head of the fourth lady. Over there, Ji Qishi stood up, pulled up the two children, and came over to salute the second lady. She was obviously very restrained, her expression was unnatural, her speech was a little dull, and she knelt down and kowtowed to the two children in just two sentences. The two children are extremely dexterous, presumably taught by adults in advance, this head knocks, and the auspicious words are slippery.

Xia Xiaoman's eyes were full of eyes, and the room was full of jewels and silk, but the legendary cousin was nowhere to be seen, hey, it should be time to appear at this time, right?

Just thinking about it, I saw a young girl standing up in her group of sisters-in-law, petite, primrose sè pan gold embroidered clothes, ivory white plain flower pleated skirt, a four-butterfly hairpin on her head, hanging beads swaying.

There is no shortage of beauties in the Nianfu, only in the younger generation here, the two nǎinǎi who are always full of fairy spirit, the nine nǎinǎi of the sweet angel, the four nǎinǎi and the seventh lady who are examples of traditional beauties with willow eyebrows and apricot eyes and cherry mouths, are not called peerless, and they are also first-class beauties, and there are also many beautiful concubines and maids standing in this house.

But although this girl is not completely beautiful, she is not inferior to this group of people. Although it is also a popular dress in the boudoir of the big family, it can bring out a unique bookish atmosphere, which is quite a bit of "people are in the red dust, not stained with red dust".

The girl Shanshan walked over, Ying Ying bowed, and said in a tender voice: "Lingshu has seen the second aunt." The second aunt is blessed with longevity and good health. ”

-------- doesn't count as word count dividers-

PS: Alas, it's late again...... Tears in. I don't ask for forgiveness, but I beg to be a little lighter when I hit me......

Crawling away on tiptoe... Secant------------
