Chapter 199: A Different Xiao He
On this day, the Shunyi Bofu was extremely lively, and when Cheng Daqian came back to see his wife and children, the smile on the corner of the mouth of this hard-working businessman made him look like a second fool, which caused everyone to have a lot of fun.
"Second uncle, don't look at it, look back and look slowly."
"Yes, the second aunt doesn't know, the second uncle misses you, no, you guys, you have to keep an eye on the renovation of the East Courtyard if you have a little free time, urging the progress, just hope that the second aunt will come early."
As soon as Cheng Xiaosi's words came out, Cheng Sanniang, who had been beaten back to his original form, smiled extremely happily, "What Xiaosi said is right, if you have nothing to do, you will urge and urge, and if you have nothing to do, you will talk to your mother." ”
Cheng Youxian and Cheng Youan asked, "Didn't you talk to us?" ”
"It's chattering."
Cheng Sanniang said very seriously, "Talking about whether you have studied hard, whether you have skipped class, whether you have completed your homework well, I have not beaten you for a long time, I will tell you, Mr. Dad has invited you well, just waiting for you to come." ”
The two brothers couldn't help but shrink back, the news was not right, my mother said that my father was majestic in the capital, so let them come to the fox and fake the tiger.
In the clear and innocent eyes, I realized that I had been deceived, so miserable.
Before the meal, Xiao He led the Qin family to the East Courtyard to settle down, and by the way, he told her about the affairs in the house, and said: "In the past six months, things in the house have progressed rapidly, and some of them can't keep up, so everyone can only work day and night, but fortunately, it has been smooth recently." “
"The big and small things in the house are now taken care of by Erniang's girl, I have to be busy with the affairs of the dart game on the one hand, and I am also busy walking around with the ladies of the families outside, and the age of several children has also arrived, and I have to worry about kissing, so it can be said that I lack skills."
"It's good that you're here, and you have to work hard to sort it out here, you and Erniang will work together to sort out the things in the house, this is about to enter late autumn, and in a blink of an eye, I will say that the New Year's words, this year is different from previous years, I'm afraid that there will be busy."
"There will be a few banquets in the future, and when the time comes, you will come with me, and we will not be slack off on this outside matter."
Xiao He is indeed very busy, the two Cheng Daqi brothers recruited a lot of merchants to settle into the north of the city, the goods are very frequent, because of the relationship in the house, these merchants are almost entrusted to their dart bureau, the dart bureau has been understaffed, fortunately Xiao Chengli and Mrs. Xiao and her two sisters-in-law are in charge of the dart bureau all day long, so there is barely a mess.
Her father and brother have not come back yet, the dart bureau needs to be expanded urgently, Cheng Youer and Cheng Yousan have also reached the age of saying kiss, Cheng Xiaosi's dowry still needs to be prepared, the families of those merchants, the greetings sent by the wives of various officials, the banquets she must attend, etc., it can be said that if it weren't for Cheng Erniang to take care of the house in an orderly manner, she didn't need to worry about it, she didn't know how to live her life.
As soon as she heard that she had so many things to do, the Qin family was very embarrassed that she could be so busy, and it was not easy for her to be this uncle; I also sighed that the house was different, she had been here before, and at that time I thought that this Bofu was nothing special, and there were very few posts for the banquet.
"It's not that the sister-in-law doesn't give you time to rest, it's really that things don't wait for anyone, Sanniang's child also has to go out to the banquet more, a few girls opened a teahouse to play, and they are also very busy, she herself is not in a hurry about this marriage event, we can't think about it more, we all help each other watch more, it's better than one person."
Qin nodded again and again, to say that in the past few years, she has also been used to doing the work of the housekeeper's wife, and she also did a lot of psychological construction before coming to the capital, thinking that the eldest brother and sister-in-law have the final say, she can't be strong everywhere, which makes everyone unhappy.
It's not like I've lived in the capital for a lifetime, and when I return home, I'll still be her decent housekeeper.
I didn't expect her sister-in-law to be so relieved to hand over these things to her, so that she would receive important work as soon as she came, so that she would not be careful and embarrassed everywhere in this mansion.
I thought this would be enough, but Xiao He said again, "Your eldest brother has been repeatedly praised by the emperor in the past half a year, and there is a second uncle and Youqian who have helped each other, although they are brothers, but your eldest brother has them in mind, and he is still saying that he will finish it in the next time, do it well, do it well, and then take his merits to the emperor and ask for an official position for the second uncle, even if it is an idle official position." ”
"I also discussed with my mother, and when you arrived, I set up a banquet in the house, and invited the ladies of each family to come to be lively, first, the house was renovated and there were conditions for hospitality, and second, it was time to walk around with the ladies of each family, and third, it was also to let people know that the second lady who could take care of things came to the house, and finally the children all looked at each other, and they had a good number in their hearts."
"It's the banquet, and you have to work hard to manage it with Erniang."
Qin Shi excitedly shook Xiao He's hand, and his joy was overflowing, "Sister-in-law, how can I thank you and my eldest brother." ”
Her sister-in-law is really different, she is so thoughtful and thinks about their family everywhere.
Xiao He smiled: "It's all a family, and there are not many people, of course, we have to carry each other forward, and I have prepared a gift, tomorrow I will lead you to see Mama Fang, Mama Fang is the grandmother in the queen's palace, the most capable, I am also learning from her, let her also teach you, this is a lot of opportunities to enter the palace in the future, and the rules can not go wrong." ”
Qin nodded happily, "Sister-in-law has arranged it like this, and I feel that I am different." ”
The two said happily after a phone call, Xiao He said to arrange the meal, let her clean up and go to the front yard to eat, and when she left, Sanniang stepped forward with a smile and hugged her mother's arm, "My mother is here, my backbone is here, mother, you will live here steadily, the uncle's family is very good, and it is good for me, and the third brother often brings us gadgets back when he goes out." ”
Qin asked Cheng Sanniang a lot of questions, smiled even more, and said that he would choose a few good-looking jewelry for Cheng Erniang and Cheng Xiaosi.
Xiao He, who had just walked out not far away, met Cheng Xiaosi, who had come to wait for her, the mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled, Cheng Xiaosi came up, "Mother, how is it?" ”
Xiao He nodded her eyebrows, "With you, a little military advisor, behind the scenes, it is naturally extremely smooth." ”
"Your second aunt is very happy."
"It's not good for your sister to work hard at home, your second aunt can just help your sister, if your sister gets married one day, your mother will take important things, and let your second aunt take care of the rest, and your mother is impatient to do this."
As she spoke, she laughed, "What my mother said in front of your second aunt today is not bad, and she is very convinced by your second aunt's reaction, and my mother can be regarded as standing up." ”
Xiao Si is right, she doesn't have to take care of everything, but she has the ability, she can deal with problems properly, and she can hold on to them.
"Go back and give Mama Fang some more gifts, and let her teach her more mother."
Yes, Mama Fang has been secretly bribed by Cheng Xiaosi, and asked her to quietly go to her mother to teach her mother at night, because the gift money is enough, and the teaching is all dry goods, otherwise her mother can't grow up so fast!
