Ban's thoughts on the full moon banquet of his great-eldest grandson, coupled with Zhuo Zhaojie's diligent service in front of the bed every day, was completely recovered two days before the full moon banquet.

At the banquet, Ban's really instructed the second lady to 'hand' over the housekeeper's affairs to Wu Manniang the next day, and the second lady agreed with a smile on her face, and flattered Ban's and said: "The daughter-in-law 'woman' is saying that she can't supervise Canniang these days, and in the end the mother loves the daughter-in-law'." ”

Wu Manniang hurriedly said: "Speaking of which, it's all mine, it's not my second aunt." ”

"I can't afford your hard work!" The second lady smiled kindly, "You are now the hero of our You family, for Feng Langjun, what are these months?" I just told my mother to hurt me. ”

Everyone laughed, only the third lady's face changed, and she suddenly said: "Mother, the young lady is young now, and she just gave birth to Feng Lang, and she has to be a housekeeper and raise Feng Lang, I'm afraid she may not be able to be busy, right?" ”

There was a laugh in the hall, and a trace of displeasure flashed in Ban's eyes, but for the sake of the full moon banquet, he didn't reprimand the third lady in public, but only said lightly: "Feng Lang has his own 'nurse' mother and 'daughter' to take care of, and Manniang's 'breast' mother Zhao helps to watch, how many Chenguang can you delay Manniang?" Could it be that Lingniang, Chilang, and Lianniang were all raised by you taking care of them yourself? ”

The third lady was still unwilling, and said, "But ......"

"Mother!" Seeing that Ban's face was getting more and more ugly, Wu Manniang's gaze also became cold, and on the grandchildren's table, You Ling suddenly got up and said loudly, "My skirt has turned over the soup, where is the Yuehua skirt that my mother made for me?" I want to put it on. ”

Ban snorted coldly, thinking about You Ling's face, he finally let go of the third lady, and said lukewarmly: "You go down with Lingniang!" ”

You Zhen glanced at Lian with warning, and the third lady's eyes flashed with clear disappointment and resentment, she didn't dare to openly resist her mother-in-law and husband, and bowed her head and said, "Yes!" ”

Out of the 'door', the third lady was angry and hated, slapped You Ling's head hard, and shouted: "What kind of mouth do you have? ”

You Ling's expression was indifferent, as if he didn't feel pain and grievances at all, and said quietly: "Mother, we are three rooms." ”

"It's because it's a third room that I want to fight for this housekeeper!" You Ling didn't cry because of the beating, but the third lady choked aggrievedly, "The monthly silver we received in our room is not enough for your father to squander outside, and the third room will not be able to share double the family property, if I don't try to do it for you, how will you live in the future?" Your brother is okay, in the end, he can still get fame and find a way out, you are a little lady, there is no rich dowry, what will the husband's family think of you in the future? ”

You Ling said softly: "Mother, these grandmothers will also think of it. ”

"It's strange that she thinks of you!" The third lady gritted her teeth and said, "She loves your eldest aunt and your fourth uncle the most!" The grandchildren's favorites are Zhaojie and Xuanlang, her 'private' room, how can it be your turn? Thinking about it, he couldn't help but pat the head of the spirit and shouted, "It's all useless for you!" Not obedient at all! I told you a long time ago, don't be there all day long and embroider 'flowers'! Look at how many embroidery pieces you have made for your grandfather and grandmother, they wear them, and it is better for you than for Zhaojie and Canniang, who are idle and will sell in front of them! Can't you be clever and sweet-mouthed?! ”

You Ling indifferently let her beat and scold, did not refute, did not justify, and the eyes of the "female" child who had just stepped into the young "girl" were indifferent and ethereal.

As soon as the third lady walked away, after the 'flower' bush, You Can and Zhuo Zhaojie glanced at each other, looking helpless and pityful.

"The fourth sister never laughs." You Can sighed, "The third aunt has always loved to beat the third uncle's concubine, and she also likes to beat people to get angry, but I didn't expect her to even do it with the fourth sister." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie pursed his lips: "Let's go back to the table, so as not to worry about our grandmother when she can't see us." ”

You Can asked in a low voice, "Do you want to tell your grandmother?" ”

"Do you think my grandmother doesn't know?" Zhuo Zhaojie said in a low voice, "But the third aunt is the mother of the fourth cousin, and she beats in private, and the fourth cousin never shows it...... What can my grandmother do? ”

You Can's eyes showed unbearability, and he muttered, "This day...... It's better to ask your grandmother to find a good home for her fourth cousin and get out of the cabinet early! ”

She mentioned going out of the cabinet, but Zhuo Zhaojie thought of Ma Zhishu and Song Weiyi that day......

After the full moon banquet, everyone dispersed, Zhuo Zhaojie and You Can refused to leave, Ban glanced at them, and said with a smile: "Something?" ”

The two nodded together.

"Say it." Although the third lady at the table was a little uninteresting, because of the timely rounding of the spirit, Ban was still in a good mood today.

Zhuo Zhaojie and You Can looked around, and Ban said with a smile: "Yo, what's the matter, so secret?" ”

When Ban sent people away, only Mama Zhou was left, and the two cousins said the matter in general, Ban listened and listened, gradually smiled, and 'communicated' with Mama Zhou to change her eyes, and said, "What do you think?" ”

You Can's 'sex' was anxious, and he rushed to say: "It's best to find a good family for the fourth sister to come out of the cabinet quickly, so that she won't continue to be bullied by the third aunt!" ”

Ban smiled faintly and said: "Out of the pavilion - it's hard for you to think of this idea, but have you thought about it, first, you are Siniang's sister, you haven't come out of the cabinet yet, where is the turn to get Siniang?" Second, even if you are willing to marry the Bai family for her sake, how old is Siniang this year? If you don't have time, who will you marry? Third, if there is a biological mother who doesn't know how to love her son', how can she find this good person? ”

You Can was stunned by the question, so he pulled Zhuo Zhaojie's sleeve: "What do you say about Zhaojie?" ”

"The fourth cousin 'sex' is too quiet." Zhuo Zhaojie groaned, "Actually, I heard that the third aunt didn't hurt the fourth cousin, but the fourth cousin's 'sex......'. I don't have an idea, I still have to ask my grandmother to make an idea. ”

Ban said: "You are considerate, but I also want to teach you one thing - this considerate person, you also have to see if it is worth being considerate, do you think that a mother like Lian is not smart, what can you achieve by listening to her?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie suddenly blushed.

"I know that you always feel a little indebted to Sanfang because of the previous Zhaocui incident." Ban said, "It's just that there is no need to be like this between flesh and bones, if you have to care about such a thing until now, such a person will not be used to it!" ”

You Can nodded beside him.

Ban said to her again: "As soon as you saw that your fourth sister was wronged, you wanted to let her marry out of the 'door' to avoid it, but have you thought about it?" How carefully should this 'woman''s husband' be chosen? You're so anxious...... It's a shame that it's not your turn to call the shots about your fourth sister's marriage now, otherwise, it will just fall from one fire pit to another! You 'hairy' 'sex' must be changed! ”

After talking about both the granddaughter and the granddaughter, Ban said: "Lingniang's marriage can be seen alike, even if you don't mention it, I will tell you in a few days." ”

Both of them were a little surprised, and asked in unison, "How many days will it be?" ”

"Isn't it Canniang's grandmother's birthday?" Ban said with a smile, "It just so happens that several little ladies and little ladies have reached the age to see each other, and Mrs. Lu sent someone to send a post before, so she asked someone to bring a message, saying that if our family is interested, we can take this opportunity to pay attention to Lingniang, Chi Lang, and Huan Lang, even if it is uncertain for a while, there can be a number in my heart." ”

He also said, "Lingniang's 'sex' is indeed too quiet, I'm afraid that on that day, even if she tells her, she may not be willing to pay attention to anyone, you two sisters can get snacks, that day I will 'hand' a task with you, you will accompany Lingniang, urge her to look at a few more Xiaolangjun, if there is a good one, she is embarrassed to say embarrassed to ask, this is your business!" ”

This kind of liveliness, the little ladies rarely don't love it, and both of them happily responded happily.

Ban Shi thought about it and was not at ease, and admonished: "Although you want to accompany Lingniang, you must remember to be reserved, don't lose the bearing of our Hanlin Mansion!" ”

"Grandfather, don't worry!" You Can said with a smile, "With the reputation of our You family in Moling, the fourth sister is a little beauty, and we are definitely the only ones who pick and choose others!" ”

"Don't be too arrogant!" Ban said, "Lest others think that the little lady of our You family is 'unladylike', you must know that the really ambitious little lady may not like the unruly little lady, and besides, Lingniang is not a rude person, you must be careful, don't mistake her!" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie said with a smile: "Yes, yes, we will not dare to forget what my grandmother told us, so my grandmother can rest assured, where do I dare to joke with my third cousin about the fourth cousin's lifelong events?" ”

Early in the morning of the 19th, in addition to You Shuo and Wu Manniang, who were still wearing motherly filial piety and had to take care of You Zhao, they all changed into the outfits of going out to celebrate their birthdays, and went to the Bai family with Ban's Haohao 'Dang' and 'Dang'.

The Bai family has already been dressed up, and the two fresh "flowers" along the big "gate" have been placed next to the stone lion guarding the "door" at the bottom of the steps, and now it is late autumn, even in the south of the Yangtze River, these "flowers" are also expensive. The subordinates who shuttled in and out of the "door" made the "women" change into new and colorful "color" dresses to meet the occasion, and the fresh "flowers" "intertwined" brightly, and the "flowers" of the faction were full of flowers, and they looked very lively.

Because the Ban family is a serious order, and the two families are in-laws, Mrs. Lu personally took her daughter-in-law to the big "door" to greet her, on both sides you pushed me to let me, and greeted the hall, but saw a room from old to young, it was really full of people - of course, there was a wide range of Bai family's 'friends', and the old lady's birthday greetings naturally came like a cloud, and Mrs. Lu intended to draw the line for the people with heads and faces in Moling, so as to promote the marriage of the younger generations, and also let the comers bring the younger generations of the right age, making this time the guests special.

For this reason, the Fu family and the Meng family, two people who are used to managing the family, are very busy, and in order to congratulate the Lu family on his birthday, although the second and third rooms did not come back, they also came back partly, and the second wife of the Bai family, the Mo family, and the third lady of the Bai family, the Song family, also started to fight, so they could barely cope with it.

Ban's title is the highest in Moling, since she has arrived, it also means that everyone has almost arrived, Mrs. Lu exchanged a few words with her, and the two of them 'crossed' to change their eyes and 'color', and together they opened their mouths to let the little ladies go to the garden to play, and several other old ladies and ladies all smiled and helped, so that everyone did not have to be restrained.

Most of the little ladies knew what this meant, and many of them responded with red faces, and then they went out with the handmaidens.

Because of whether it was to be a guest at the Bai family, Mrs. Lu specially assigned the Meng family, who was very good at getting along with the little ladies, to accompany her to entertain her, and if there was anything, it would be a good round.

Out of the 'door', You Can looked left and right, and suddenly said in surprise: "Why is the fourth cousin not here?" ”

Her words attracted the attention of even Xiaoniang, Song Xiaoniang and others next to her, and they all went to ask Meng Shi: "Where is Fourth Sister Bai?" Didn't you come back? ”

Meng Shi smiled and said, "Grandmother's birthday, where can she not come back?" ”

"Then why don't you see her?" You Can asked curiously.

Meng Shi smiled and said: "She arrived yesterday, she was tired on the road, and now she is resting in Yunshui Building!" ”

A group of little ladies who didn't leave the pavilion couldn't hear her euphemistic hint, and they all said: "We all got up early in the morning to congratulate Mrs. Lu on her birthday, but she, the granddaughter, will be lazy, and she won't get up until now?" This can't be done, let's go and mess with her together! ”

Everyone coaxed: "Yes, yes, go and trouble her, don't go to the garden first!" In the end, some little ladies are still tender-faced, listening to the old ladies directly say that they should go to the garden to play, can you still guess that the little ladies who came over this time are in the garden? Now that I heard Bai Zihua in Yunshui Building, I felt that it was a step, so it was better to go directly to the garden to feel at ease.

Meng Shi 'revealed' a look of crying and laughing, and said: "She is precious now, she must not make trouble, if she is troubled, Lin Langzi is not in a hurry with you!" ”

"Sisters in our boudoir, make a fuss, what's the matter with Guan Lin Langjun?" You Can said dissatisfiedly, "This stingy person! ”

Meng Shi was angry and funny.
