Chapter 789: Is Mrs. Peng's Mother's Family Iron-struck?
For such a big happy event at home, of course, Li Laosan brought Brother Li back, and Mr. Peng also came to drink the wedding wine.
Xu couldn't bear the pestering of his new wife at home, but this time, Mr. Peng brought his family members.
Wen Juan is not very familiar with this stepmother, after all, after getting married, she rarely goes back.
Even if you go back, you will see your father, and you will leave some things and go back to the Li family's courtyard.
On weekdays, from the mouths of some gentlemen and ladies in the academy, she can also see that this stepmother is not a peaceful person.
But there are a lot of guests at home today, and the etiquette she should do is not missing.
So, she hugged the star and sat next to Mrs. Peng and said a few gossips.
Mrs. Peng didn't know if she had forgotten, or if she was stingy because it was the first time she saw the stars, she didn't prepare a meeting gift for her grandson.
But she can say with her mouth, reached out and pinched Xingxing's fat face, and said with a smile: "Oh, this child is raised for nothing, it's really good."
"It's not like our show brothers, who are seven or eight years old, and they know how to cry every day, which is not pleasing at all."
Wen Juan raised her eyebrows, knowing that her stepmother was talking about the concubine giving birth to the younger brother.
Although she doesn't like it either, on such an occasion, when her stepmother says this, others will only look at the Peng family's jokes.
So, she spoke: "Children have to learn the rules early when they are young, I am stupid and don't understand these things, fortunately, Xingxing has a great grandmother and grandmother to help teach me on weekdays." ”
Does this mean that the Peng family's children have no one to teach well, that her stepmother is incompetent, or that she is not dutiful?
Mrs. Peng choked and felt a little unhappy.
Her subordinates couldn't help but increase their strength, and the star's face was a little painful.
Xingxing is the eldest grandson of the fourth generation of the Li family, when did he suffer this grievance!
As soon as he patted Mrs. Peng's hand, he jumped out of his mother's arms and went straight to his aunt, "Auntie, aunt, the stars hurt!" ”
Jiayin bent down to pick up her fat nephew, and saw that her face was a little red, and she was also distressed.
So she glanced at Mrs. Peng lightly, "Is Mrs. Peng's maiden family iron-struck?" It's really a lot of strength! ”
Mrs. Peng's heart was weak, Fang Cai really didn't pay attention, she still wanted to quibble a few words, but looking at Jiayin's face, she couldn't say anything.
Although Jiayin is only ten years old, she is recovering from a serious illness at this time, but she has been pampered by the whole family since she was a child, and she is a county lord with a fiefdom, and she is raised with gold and jade.
Today, for the full moon banquet of the round boy, she deliberately changed into a peach-woven gold pipa cardigan, and the bun on her head was simple but atmospheric, only a gold crown was inserted, but it was embedded with seven-colored gemstones, which was extraordinarily luxurious.
The two small braids specially set aside hung down on her chest, and occasionally stroked the gold-inlaid mutton fat jade, which made her more and more like a full moon, full of luxury.
Especially looking at Mrs. Peng so lightly, her clear eyes seem to be able to see through all her careful thoughts.
Mrs. Peng smiled dryly, and replied boldly: "The county lord said that he laughed, my mother's family is a family of cultivation and reading. ”
"Oh, I misunderstood." Jiayin sneered, "I thought Mrs. Peng was born with great strength, but it turned out that she hadn't raised a child yet, and her subordinates didn't know the severity." ”
Never had a child?!
Mrs. Peng instantly seemed to be pierced by ten thousand arrows, ashamed and resentful.
She has been married into the Peng family for almost four years, and she has never been happy, otherwise the concubines in the family would not dare to try to jump on her head and spread wildness......
Wen Juan saw that her stepmother was dying, and she lowered her head and only knew that she was twisting the veil, and she also felt relieved.
She was also impatient to do her best, got up and said, "Grandma, I'll go to the stove to have a look, my mother and fourth aunt are afraid that they are very busy." ”
"Let's go," Mrs. Li smiled and waved her hand, "Today is a good day for your sister-in-law and Yuanyuan, and you are so tired." ”
Wan'er sat very comfortably this month, not only was she not haggard, but she gained seven or eight pounds.
At this moment, she hugged Yuanyuan and sat beside the old lady, and said with a smile: "Yes, Wenjuan, in a few days, I will sew a good skirt to thank you." ”
"Okay," Wen Juan responded unceremoniously, stepped forward with a smile and nodded a little round fat face, and begged: "Sister-in-law help me embroider a few magnolias on my skirt, the magnolia embroidered by my sister-in-law is the best!" ”
"Then add another coat, the sleeves and neckline embroidered with small magnolias, and the group embroidered with large flowers, it must look better. It just so happened that my sister gave me a box of pearls the day before yesterday, so I used pearls as flower cores. "Wan'er really wants to thank this concubine.
Wen Juan doesn't talk much on weekdays, but she is really good, diligent and duty-bound, and does not fight or grab.
In the past month, she has helped take care of Yuanyuan the most, and she has also taught parenting scriptures, which is really a rare good woman in the world.
The women next to them are envious, whether they are rich or poor, life is comfortable, and the most important thing is to have a happy family.
The Li family's concubines are almost the same as their own sisters.
Some people couldn't bear it anymore and surrounded Mrs. Li and asked about the rest of the Li family......
didn't say that the house was lively, but that Wen Juan brought the maid Xiaoyue to the stove courtyard in front.
Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru are leading people to busy renovating the banquet.
Zhao Yuru urged Tao Hongying, "Hongying, it's almost busy here, you wash your hands, tidy up, and go to the backyard to entertain guests, here is me and Jiahuan!" ”
Tao Hongying refused, "Third sister-in-law, you are a sister-in-law, if you want to go, you will also go to entertain guests, how can there be a reason for one of my younger brothers and sisters to be in the limelight and leave you to work." ”
Zhao Yuru couldn't cry or laugh when she heard it, and pulled her to wash her hands, "The fourth child is a general, Fu Niu'er is the county lord, no matter what you say, you should go to socialize."
"Your third brother and I, as well as Jia Huan, were originally engaged in food and business, of course we were in charge of the stove."
When the two of them were pulling, they heard someone shouting in the courtyard.
"Who are you? Stop it! ”
The two of them paused for a moment, and immediately shouted loudly that the mother-in-law who helped the cook in the stove room, as well as the cooks who had been transferred by the cyclamen, should not go out.
The two of them also wanted to take a look at the door, but they had been pushed inside by Jia Huan together.
Jia Huan had a kitchen knife in one hand and rushed out directly.
Because he heard that it was Wen Juan who was shouting just now!
Wen Juan was standing behind the door panel with Xiao Yue at this moment, Xiao Yue was holding the latch in her hand and protecting the master tightly.
And Dongmei, Shui Ling and Shui Yun are already fighting with a middle-aged woman at this time.
Jia Huan ran to Wen Juan's side, and when he saw that she was not injured, he asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Wen Juan's face was not good, and she hurriedly responded: "As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw Mrs. Fang and her little granddaughter fetching water.
"And this eye-catching woman stood behind them, opened the lid of the soup pot, and was about to pour something into it!"
There are more visitors today, and the pots between the stoves are not enough, so two earthen stoves were temporarily built in the corner of the courtyard.
One braised pork, one stewed mutton and wolfberry soup.
Sure enough, someone put their minds on these two earthen stoves.
It happened that Wenjuan's master and servant came over and saw it at a glance.
In fact, even if they hadn't crashed, nothing would have happened today.
Because Dongmei and Shui Ling have been working in this yard, keeping an eye on all movements.
When the mother-in-law came in to ask for water, they noticed it......
The mother-in-law who was born in the eyes was very capable, and Dongmei and Shui Ling besieged one of her, but they didn't fall behind for a while.
However, she found an opportunity and pulled Fang Pozi's little granddaughter and threw it in front of Dongmei and Shui Ling......
