Chapter 155 Moving (Part 2)
Chapter 155 Moving
Amber can see what Mrs. Tai is thinking, let alone Eleven Niang and the old man who has served Mrs. Tai for many years.
Eleven Niang felt a little uneasy.
Logically speaking, Sister Zhen's son should be living in a separate courtyard when he is so old. She kept Sister Zhen's son by her side. Firstly, she liked Sister Zhen very much and wanted to develop a relationship with her; secondly, she wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to put her
Brother Zhun brought her here and did not keep her in the main room for a long time. After all, there were several aunts living in the east courtyard, and it was inconvenient for Xu Lingyi to come and go. But the fifth lady wanted to avoid her zodiac sign, so there was no suitable place for the moment.
I originally thought that after the summer next year, the fifth lady would be out of confinement, and I would find a good place in the garden for her to live alone. I didn't expect that it would attract such a big gesture from the wife.
She couldn't help shouting: Mom, but she didn't know how to explain it.
The madam smiled and clapped her hand, with a clear look in her eyes: Don't be afraid, I will pay for the building of the house.
Everyone laughed when they heard it.
Eleven Niang had no choice but to keep her plan in mind. Just then, a little maid came in and said: The mother next to Lin Da Nai of the Marquis of Weibei came to say hello to the fourth lady.
The lady smiled and said, "Go and take a look. Sister Zhen, Erchen, and I are walking around in the yard."
Eleven Niang left in response.
But the two mothers of the Lin family came here to post messages for Sister Zhen.
The eldest daughter of our family invited the eldest daughter of your family to come and enjoy the plum blossoms.
Eleven Niang smiled and accepted the post: I will definitely go there then. After rewarding the two mothers, she went to the east wing.
The wife was pointing to the middle hall of the main room: "For children's homes, don't use landscape paintings, use flowers and birds to make them appear lively." When she saw Eleven Niang coming in, she looked at her.
Eleven Niang hurriedly handed the note in her hand to Mrs. Tai: The eldest lady of the Lin family invited us, Sister Zhen, to enjoy the snow.
Sister Zhen was startled.
Unexpectedly, no one from the Lin family stopped Sister Hui from doing what she said.
For a moment, I was very envious. I was also worried that Eleven Niang would not agree and would hurt Sister Hui's heart, so that she would never care about me again. I was also worried that Eleven Niang would agree but would not be happy because of her kindness, so I would go by myself.
It's too shameless. After thinking about it, I couldn't help but glance at Eleven Niang.
Eleven Niang smiled at her: Our sister Zhen has been cared about so quickly.
The Xu brothers were also naughty and mischievous when they were young. If things hadn't happened one after another at home, she wouldn't have kept Sister Zhen at home. Marquis Weibei was a good family member, and Sister Zhen and them
It would be good for Sister Jiahui to move around more.
Then make arrangements and ask Mother Du to accompany her there. Mrs. Tai told Eleven Niang.
Eleven Niang immediately responded with a smile.
When Sister Zhen saw that everyone was in favor of her going, she smiled in her eyes.
Brother Chen shouted from the side: I want to go too
Sister Zhen's face looked troubled.
Go, Sister Hui did not invite him, and it would be a bit bad to take one more person with her rashly. If you don't go, you are afraid that Brother Zhun will be unhappy and cause trouble, which will ruin the mood of Mrs. Tai and Eleven Niang.
Eleven Niang saw it clearly and said with a smile: "It's a matter of a girl's family. Why do you, a man, get involved in it? I asked Brother Yu to play with you."
The madam raised her eyebrows when she heard this.
Brother Chen said loudly: I want to play with Third Brother
Then you have to be obedient and follow my eleven mother's instructions.
Brother Zhen nodded immediately: I want to go riding a horse with my third brother.
Eleven Niang laughed: Okay, I want to see where Brother Jian can get you a horse.
Everyone laughed.
Over there, Qiao Lianfang was sitting on the big kang near the window with hot tea, her expression looked very hesitant: Madam Tai is in the main courtyard, do we really not want to go there? She used to like me very much.
Xiuton lowered her voice and patiently persuaded: Miss, it was before, and now is now. Not to mention that since you came in, Mrs. Tai has never seen you alone, nor has she said a word or two to you in front of other people.
Madam is right. The only one you can rely on now is the Marquis, but don't go against the Marquis' wishes.
Qiao Lianfang bit her red lips and remained silent.
Xiu Cong looked at her and knew that she hadn't turned around yet. If it were him, he probably wouldn't be able to turn around in a while. But when the wife left, she called her and talked to her for a long time, and she said a lot of things.
Please ask her to take good care of the young lady, otherwise, she herself will not be able to have a good future.
Thinking of this, she had no choice but to persuade her carefully: Didn't the Marquis also say that day that you should get well soon and go to greet the wife according to the rules. You are not happy, knowing that the Marquis is not resting in the main room, so you just let yourself go.
After playing the piano most of the night, Madam didn't say anything. However, when the Marquis left, he informed Aunt Qin and Aunt Wen, but not you. I'm afraid she was already dissatisfied.
Qiao Lianfang snorted coldly and said: So what if she is dissatisfied? Didn't I go to explain it to her early in the morning? In front of the Marquis, didn't she carefully let someone bring me the Jinbao?
Sit down and talk.
Xiuton knew that Qiao Lianfang was still a little bit tough, so he didn't argue with her. He just smiled and said: So, Madam is also afraid of Mr. Hou, so you should capture Mr. Hou's heart. That day you went to Madam's place, Hou
Aren't you very happy?
Qiao Lianfang remained silent, her expression a little uncertain.
Seeing this, Xiu Citron continued to persuade her: Look at Aunt Wen again. She can rest wherever the Marquis likes, and it doesn't matter if she doesn't. Anyway, she has made a lot of money doing business outside in the name of the Marquis. This is
It is said that every gain must come with a loss. You are bowing your head now. Although you have lost face, the Marquis looks distressed and will only pity you more and treat you better. Isn’t that what my wife said too? Please hurry up and get pregnant.
With a son, you will not only have support in the future, but also gain a firm foothold with the Marquis. If you look at Aunt Qin again, she is already half old, but the Marquis will never leave her behind. After all, isn't it?
Is it for the second young master’s dignity?
Qiao Lianfang lowered her head and wrung her fingers, her expression slowly softening.
Seeing that her words were effective, Xiutan was very happy and said: Miss, how about I send Zhu Rui to Aunt Qin's place to see what she is doing. If she goes, we will go too. If she doesn't go to Mrs. Qin, we will go too.
Hello, we also pretend not to know. Anyway, you are still sick now.
Qiao Lianfang nodded slightly after hearing this.
Xiu Citron felt relieved and immediately called Zhu Rui and asked her to go to Aunt Qin's place to have a look.
Soon Zhu Rui came back: Aunt Qin was talking to Aunt Yi in the third room. She didn't look like she was going somewhere.
Xiutan smiled and said: Miss, let's just stay at home. Why bother looking at people's looks?
Qiao Lianfang nodded and wondered: What did Aunt Qin and Aunt Yi say?
Zhurui smiled and said: It seems that they are discussing the money for sesame oil to be given to Ciyuan Temple next year. She also said that she wants to add fifty taels of silver to the second young master this year to ask for some peace charms.
Xiu Tong thought of Aunt Qin wearing a green lotus-colored squirrel leather coat that day, and now she heard Zhu Rui say that she would add fifty taels of sesame oil money to Ciyuan Temple every year. She was moved in her heart and whispered the fur coat and sesame oil money.
I told Qiao Lianfang about this: She is a maid, why should she wear a fur coat and add fifty taels of silver to her mouth? She is not entirely dependent on the Marquis, and it is not because she gave birth to a son. Miss, can you tell me about this?
You need to think about it more.
Qiao Lianfang showed a surprised expression when she heard this. Her face turned blue and white, and she said after a long while: If she doesn't go, we won't go either.
Xiu Citron nodded hurriedly: Miss is right. How about I call Zhu Rui and Zhu Calyx over and we can play leaf cards.
Qiao Lianfang nodded vigorously, and Xiucan hurriedly called the two little maids to come in.
Seeing that it was getting late, the Eleventh Mother asked the Madam to have lunch. The Eleventh Madam agreed, and the Eleventh Madam sent someone to invite the Third Madam to come over and join in the fun. Then she served the Madam and sat down on the big Kang by the window in the West Room.
, served the tea with her own hands. Thinking that Madam Tai had just heard that she had called Xu Siyu to come and talk to Brother Zhun, she raised her eyebrows, and saw Sister Zhen and Brother Zhun curiously playing with the goldfish she kept in the East Room.
, whispered: I think Sister Zhen will move tomorrow. The eldest young master, the second young master, and the third young master, Brother Zhun, are both brothers of Sister Zhen. I want to find them to discuss how to have a child for Sister Zhen.
When they grow up, they will start to suspect that they are a man and a woman. While they still have two years left, let them have more fun together. Even if they separate in the future, the love they had when they were children will still be there.
The madam nodded: You are very considerate. Sister Zhen will have to be supported by her brothers from her mother's family when she gets married, and her brothers from her mother's family will also need the help of a capable uncle.
Eleven Niang smiled and said: Exactly what you said. I wanted to give Sister Zhen a surprise, so I didn’t say anything for the time being. I also discussed what Sister Zhen should wear when going to the Lin Mansion, what to wear, and who should follow her.
Go, take something with you, and don't stop until the third lady comes.
She heard that Mrs. Tai would stay at Eleven Niang's place for dinner, so she hurriedly ordered the kitchen to bring Mrs. Tai's food here. She served Mrs. Tai attentively for lunch, and she and Eleven Niang sent Mrs. Zhen's son to her.
Brother Chen and I went back to the house to take a nap.
On the way back, Eleven Niang told Sister Zhen that she was going to the Lin family to enjoy the snow at the end of the month: At that time, the third sister-in-law would send a carriage to take her there, and she would order the capable maid to follow.
The third lady was quite surprised when she heard this, and she agreed with a sigh: Sister Zhen is going to be a guest at the house of Marquis Weibei.
Eleven Niang said with a smile: The children have grown up and have their own circles.
The third lady nodded, the sisters-in-law chatted for a while, and then parted ways. However, the news that Sister Zhen was going to be a guest at Weibei Hou's house soon spread to everyone's ears as if it had grown wings.
Aunt Wen rummaged through the boxes in the inner room, called Qiu Hong over, and said with excitement on her face: Look, you can still get this Nanzhu bracelet.
Qiu Hong took a look and saw that all of them had large fingernails, were round and white, and sparkled with brilliant colors of five colors. They were so beautiful that it was shocking.
She looked at Aunt Wen in surprise.
Aunt Wen thought for a while and said, "You can give it to Sister Zhen quietly. Use this as a greeting gift for the big breasts of the Lin family. She also took a one-inch square emerald jade plaque: This is for the Dowager Madam as a greeting gift."
Looking at the emerald jade plaque that was as fresh as green bamboo after the rain, Qiu Hong hesitated and said: I'm afraid that Mrs. and Mrs. Wang will help prepare the meeting ceremony.
Aunt Wen felt as if she had been pricked by a needle and was deflated. She sat on the Taishi chair beside her in frustration and said with a self-deprecating smile: That’s right. Even if I sent it, it was from an unknown source. I would only give it to Sister Zhen.
cause trouble
Qiu Hong felt sad as she looked at it, and whispered: How about the Fourth Madam give it to Sister Zhen, and I'll watch. The Fourth Madam is quite kind.
Aunt Wen shook her head: "No one in this house looks kind. She just put her things in the box in a depressed manner. It's good. I don't have to prepare a meeting gift for her, which saved me a lot of money."
