When Wen Yi returned to the house, the conversation between Old Madam Yu and the Jiang family had already ended. The latter still had tears on his face, and when he saw Wen Yi coming in, he wiped away the tears in a covert way, and reluctantly smiled: "Nine girls, I really thank you." If you hadn't explained things so clearly, let the people of Luwangfu know that your sixth sister is innocent and innocent, and they don't know anything, I'm afraid that our family will be in trouble. I don't know how to thank you. ”

Wen Yi said in her heart that she didn't need them to thank her, as long as they didn't block herself, of course she wouldn't say these words honestly, she just said: "Actually, I just said what I knew, but thanks to the cooperation of the sister of the Jiang family." If it weren't for her help, the people of Luwangfu might not believe my family's words. After all, my sixth sister and I are both daughters of the Gu family. ”

Jiang Shi then remembered his niece who was snubbed by himself, and his face was a little unnatural: "You are right, I have to reward her well when I go back." ”

Reward? Wen Yi was a little ridiculous, but said with a straight face: "Although the sister of the Jiang family was also present at that time, if it weren't for her cleverness, she might not have heard the hint in my words, and she put the responsibility on Miss Zheng Jia." If you change someone else, you may only tell the truth plainly, and it will be difficult to testify against Miss Zheng. When the people in Luwangfu heard this, they probably wouldn't believe that the sixth sister really didn't know. ”

Jiang suddenly realized that he liked Jiang Yao a little more. Although she doesn't look down on this niece, she is still very happy that the other party is so eye-catching, and she knows how to excuse her daughter without her own prompting. I also feel that it is actually my cousin who is delusional about her own family, Jiang Yao behaves quite well, even so, Hengzhi is her maiden niece, and it is nothing for her to be close to her aunt.

Wen Yi saw that the old lady had been silent, and couldn't help but be a little vigilant, so she glanced at the other party, and saw that the other party was expressionless, and guessed in her heart that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't know what they were talking about, and the Jiang family would cry. After thinking about it, she felt that it was better not to have too many things, after all, this is someone's housework.

Old Madam Yu noticed Wen Yi's gaze, sneered in her heart, and only said that she was anxious when she saw her daughter's delayed future, so she said lightly: "Okay, the girl of the Jiang family is a relative after all, and she has been close to the sixth girl since she was a child, so it is also appropriate to help say a few words." None of their sisters are stupid people, don't they know how to talk when they encounter this kind of thing? Serious thanks, on the contrary, seem to be angry. That child was a hard-working person, he lost his mother early, and his father was in office again, you are a sister-in-law, and help her find a good family, isn't it better than an empty word? ”

A few words made Jiang Shi not sad but happy: "Mother-in-law is right, daughter-in-law will pay attention to it"

"That's fine, but don't forget that the sisters are not allowed to be allowed yet, and they are not young anymore. Don't forget your own children for the sake of your relatives' children. As juniors, they don't dare to say anything in their mouths, but they inevitably complain about you in their hearts."

"Mother-in-law rest assured. The daughter-in-law will definitely do things well, and when she sees someone, she will ask her mother-in-law to take a look. ”

Wen Yi looked at it coldly from the side, sneering in her heart. She had already guessed that since she had made such a fuss a few days ago, and now that she is back, even if Old Madam Yu doesn't know how to give her a ride, she won't swallow this breath easily. She doesn't need to fight for this kind of idleness, but as a member of the family, she still kindly reminds them. So she suddenly smiled and said, "I actually hesitated just now, I don't know whether to invite the sister of the Jiang family or the fifth sister." After all, when Miss Zheng asked about Cui Yu, the fifth sister was also present, and the matter of me and Sister Jiang going to Meilin later had little to do with it, as long as it was made clear. Although Sister Jiang is smart, she is not as close as the fifth sister. ”

Old Madam Yu was stunned and looked at her deeply. Jiang Shi said: "Although your fifth sister is also present, it is better to let Yao'er come to this kind of thing, your fifth sister is also the daughter of the Gu family, what she said ......" She suddenly stopped, and then her tone was a little hesitant, "Your fifth sister is about to marry into the Luwang Mansion, you also know about this, if you let her come forward, it will be a little embarrassing......

Wen Yi smiled: "This is also one of the reasons. The niece originally thought that Lu Wangfu had taken a fancy to the fifth sister as her granddaughter-in-law, and she was not called to go a few days ago, if the fifth sister was allowed to come out to testify, the people of Lu Wangfu would have seen it, maybe they would have misunderstood that the fifth sister had something to hide from them, otherwise after so many days of hard work, she was a guest in the palace several times, why did she never hear about it? But the fifth sister didn't know about this matter, how could she mention it to the palace for no reason? So the niece and daughter found the sister of the Jiang family, saving the fifth sister's family affairs. The eldest aunt has to remind the fifth sister when she turns around, if the people from the Luwang Mansion invite her to be a guest again, don't miss it."

Old Madam Yu's face changed suddenly, and she hurriedly asked Jiang's family: "The last time Lu Wangfu invited the five girls over, was it a few days ago?" ”

Jiang Shi didn't know why: "It's been about three or four days, right?" ”

Old Madam Yu's face suddenly looked bad. It's been three or four days...... Wen Xian has been at home for the past few days, didn't Lu Wangfu change her mind?

Jiang Shi also gradually came back to his senses, and looked surprised: "This ...... Not really, right? Our Hui'er is innocent, since it has nothing to do with that matter, how can the palace blame the five girls? "It's only three or four days, and it's not a strange thing.

Old Madam Yu said with a dark face: "I remember that Princess Lu has a sister who married to the Hou family in Zhennan, and when the last cousin from another family came to our house, she mentioned that she was about to celebrate her birthday, just these two days, right?" Did you send a post over? "If King Lu's Mansion hadn't changed his mind, Wen Xian would probably have been invited to attend this kind of occasion.

Jiang's face was uneasy, and the Hou family in Zhennan really didn't send a post. It stands to reason that Wen Xian is always the future granddaughter-in-law of Princess Lu in name, and the princess's sister has a birthday, so many irrelevant people have been invited, but why did she forget her future in-laws?

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law glanced at each other, and they both felt very unsteady. Old Madam Yu directly ordered: "I want to inquire about it, if I can give a few words to the princess and the princess, it would be the best." Our family has just suffered from the disaster of pond fish, but don't let them misunderstand the five girls for a little thing" paused, "You know this in your heart, don't let the five girls know about it first." If Lu Wangfu really means this, we have to be optimistic about a family first, and when things don't work out, we will allow the five girls to pass, and we won't have to make people laugh. After that, he glanced at Wen Yi again, and his expression was a little complicated.

If Wen Yi hadn't mentioned it earlier, she might not have noticed this, and if she waited until Lu Wangfu hired another girl from another family, she would realize that the Gu family's face would be ugly. Fortunately, the Gu family is not publicized these days, that is, a few close people have heard the rumors, if the Luwangfu has not changed the hexagram, of course it is the best, if the hexagram has changed, they can prepare as soon as possible, and they can also save some face.

Is this nine girls intentional or unintentional?

Wen Yi lowered her head meekly, as if she hadn't said anything, but she didn't think so in her heart. Lu Wangfu is a nobleman of the clan, and if you want to find a daughter from a family for your grandson, just look at Wen Xian's background, you will know how many suitable girls there are, and you may not necessarily find Wen Xian. If they are really suspicious of Wen Xian, if she marries in the future, people will also have a thorn in their hearts, and she may have to suffer. Wen Xian was affected by Zheng Lijun and Wen Hui this time, but after all, she was innocent, if the Gu family acted openly and found another good family in the future, she might not have a good life. Why do you have to force the Lu Wangfu?

At this time, it is not early, it is already three poles in the morning, and in another hour, it is time to have lunch. Wen Yi thought of Geng Ti in her heart, so she frowned secretly. What does it mean that the third aunt has not arrived for a long time? Or are you planning to come back after dinner?

After a while, someone from outside came to report that Mrs. Li had arrived. Wen Yi was overjoyed at first, and then her brows furrowed even tighter.

After Mrs. Li came in, she first greeted Mrs. Yu and the Jiang family, and then asked with an unintentional smile: "Why don't you see Mrs. Gu in the house?" I heard that she was coming today, so I brought a gift for her. On that day, I was a guest at Liu Shangshu's Mansion, and I heard Mrs. Liu say that she likes to eat big red robes on weekdays, and Lord Liu loves Maojian'er, and the tea prepared at home is also more Maojian, Longjing and other teas. I remembered that there was a big red robe at home, and I was not good at it, so I said that I would give it to her. There have been a lot of things in the past two days, and I forgot for a while, and when I heard that she was also coming to the house, I brought tea here, saving me from having to send someone to go more. ”

Old Madam Yu frowned slightly, and said with a faint smile: "Let Mrs. Li laugh, our aunt's wife is this temper." But in my heart, I was also a little dissatisfied with my daughter. If you are unwilling, don't come, why did you say that you were going to come, but you didn't arrive for a long time, embarrassing her mother?

Jiang secretly wiped his sweat, opened the topic, and chatted with Mrs. Li about the weather, first talking about the poor harvest of the fields around the capital this year, and then complaining about the lack of snow this winter, and not knowing that next year's rain will be affected, and then talking about the housework in Layue. Mrs. Li seemed to be in a good mood, and she actually pulled her skin, and when she said that she had nothing to say, she asked about Liu Gu again with a smile, and this time even Mrs. Yu was sweating.

Now that Master Li has been promoted to the second grade, he is half a level higher than Gu Yidun, the eldest master of the Gu family, so although Mrs. Yu is an elder, she does not dare to be rude to Mrs. Li. If Liu Gu's family doesn't come again, and Mrs. Li turns her face angrily, how will their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law deal with it?

Old Madam Yu glanced at Wen Yi, hoping that she could say something to appease Mrs. Li. Wen Yi just sat quietly, and seemed to be blushing a little, like a girl who was about to be married with a shy face in front of people, with a dignified posture and etiquette everywhere. Old Mrs. Yu couldn't help but feel a little depressed, and called Ruyi repeatedly: "Bring me a bowl of ginseng tea made in the morning." Ruyi glanced at Wen Yi, quickly turned around, and when she got to the door, she sent the little girl to the second door to call someone, and she must invite the third aunt and wife.

Just when Mrs. Li's face was getting darker and darker, Liu Gu finally arrived. Her face didn't look much whiter than Mrs. Li's, and she seemed to be a little weak. After greeting her mother, she saw Wen Yi who saluted her, endured it, and said lightly: "Get up, it's almost a family, and there is no need to be polite." He took out a fold from his sleeve and handed it to Jiang: "Sister-in-law, take it, this is Brother Xing'er's Geng post, can you prepare the Geng post of the nine girls?" I'll take it back and ask Mr. Yin Yang to take a look, if there is no problem, just ......" and glanced at Wen Yi again, "Just settle the matter, so as to save the trouble over there." ”

Jiang Shi carefully took the Geng post and said with a dry smile: "Mrs. Gu is too worried, the two children's relatives have long been optimistic, what can be the problem?" As for over there, my aunt has spoken, and it's you, Mrs. Shangshu, who came forward, how else can she make trouble? He quietly pulled the sister-in-law's sleeve and glanced in Mrs. Li's direction.

Liu Gu was a little uncomfortable, and accepted the unwilling look. In the final analysis, although this incident refuted her face, it damaged Aunt Bai's face even more, and her husband had another attack last night, she should have been happy. Just thinking that her husband ordered her to personally deliver Geng Tie to the door, and her mother asked someone to send a letter saying that Mrs. Li would attend, she was full of discomfort, and she could postpone it for a while.

Wen Yi looked at her and was a little puzzled, if she didn't want to, why did she send such a letter yesterday? But she didn't think much about it, she just said that what she did annoyed her cousin, who had always been good-looking.

Mrs. Li coldly took the Geng post from Jiang's hand, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, I don't know much about the life experience of my niece and son-in-law, I say that it is Liu Shangshu's nephew, and his parents are dead, I don't know who else is in the family?" As he spoke, he opened the Geng post and looked at it, and asked out loud: "Huh?" Isn't this the old lady of Liu Shangshu's family? It turned out to be a family? But...... How is Mrs. Yung? I heard that Liu Shangshu's first mother was the aunt of the queen's mother's family? ”

Liu Gu's face turned black all of a sudden.

At that time, because the Rong family was a yuan match, and her mother-in-law was still there, Mrs. Liu didn't dare to disobey her mother's wishes, so she could only ask for a decree to the main room, but she didn't publicize it. Although Mrs. Rong was treated coldly, she had all the dignity she deserved. Mrs. Yao is just a wife in office, but the edict is not until now after ascending the throne that she was crowned as a stepmother. If someone specially investigates this matter, it will not be concealed at all, Liu Fu thought that the Gu family was aware, so he wrote the Geng post truthfully, saving the extraneous branches, and the Gu family would not publicize it, but he didn't expect Mrs. Li to intervene.

Old Madam Yu cleared her throat: "This is the yuan match that the old lady of the Liu family married before her death, but it disappeared early, and Aunt Liu's biological mother was originally a stepmother." ”

"I see." Mrs. Li said with a smile, "I heard that the old lady of the Liu family married Mrs. Yao after winning the Jinshi, and the people in the capital said that it was a good story, but I didn't expect that his old man had married a relative before." In this way, this lady's edict was posthumously sealed? The old lady of the Liu family is really a gentleman," said he returned the Geng post to the Jiang family, and said to the Liu Gu family with a smile: "It's just that looking at the age of the eldest son of Mrs. Rong's wife, Master Liu Kuan, it seems that he was born two years after Mrs. Yao entered the door, this thing is really interesting." ”

Liu Gu's face darkened.

Wen Yi curled the corners of her mouth imperceptibly, and secretly applauded her cousin. She finally understood why Liu Gu's face was so ugly, but so what? When Liu Dongxing has a future in the future, there will only be more and more people who know about it

When Liu Gu got Wen Yi's Geng post, he began to fidget, and after chatting for a while, he hurriedly resigned under the pretext that there was something at home. Mrs. Li was in a good mood and chatted with Mrs. Yu and Jiang for most of the hour before leaving.

Wen Yi sent her out of the second door. Mrs. Li whispered to her: "When the Liu family comes to insert it for you, you must bring me a letter, and I will come to watch the ceremony, I can't let them snub you to Ming'er, I will send Mama Zhao back to you, and then give her nephew's family to you, so that you don't have to live in this house, and you don't even have someone who can call you out." If the people in this house dare to do anything excessive, you don't have to care about their faces, just bring someone to my house, and I will be angry for you."

Wen Yi's heart was moved, her eyes were red, and she bowed solemnly in front of her.
