Either the accounts were settled, or Xu Siqin's wedding was approaching, the third lady stopped and began to concentrate on preparing for her son's marriage. Niuwen~Watch online

As soon as July came, I sent someone from the Gan Laoquan family to find out whether the money in the shop had been credited to the housekeeper, and I was going to ask for the three hundred taels of silver from the company.

Mother Song asked the little maid to bring a bowl of iced sherbet to the Gan Laoquan family, and said with a smile: These days, Master Hou is taking the fourth young master and the housekeeper's accountant. I think it will be in the middle of the year at most. This account should be put into the warehouse.

.

The aroma of the sherbet was overflowing. Gan Laoquan took it and smelled it for a few times before taking a sip: I haven't had such a good sherbet in many years. It must be mint with licorice and gold and silver huā.

It was a gift from the Second Madam. Mother Song nodded with a smile, then thought that the sherbet was not sent to Sanjing Hutong, and explained as if to make up for it: It was newly made by the Second Madam, and she took some from the Tai Madam.

We brought some to our place and some to the Fifth Madam. She said that she wanted to taste it and if she thought it was delicious, she would make more. Madam also rewarded us with some. It was never worth using, so you took it out because it was rare.

, if they split up, they would naturally not be as affectionate as before.

Gan Laoquan's family was a little envious and said: It's better to work as an errand in the house. What's leaking from the fingers of the ladies is better than what's outside.

Mother Song smiled but said nothing.

Tusong's mother from the Gan Laoquan family lived in a cool place facing south and north. She didn't want to go back so soon, so she asked Xu Sizhen: Why is it that now the Marquis has begun to teach the prince the general affairs?

The fourth young master is still young, and Mr. Hou is just showing him some knowledge. Mother Song smiled and said, the most important thing now is studying.

Just as he was talking, a little maid ran in: Mom, the lady is calling you.

Song's mother hurriedly stood up: "Sister-in-law of the Gan family, please sit down for a while. I'll come as soon as I go."

Gan Laoquan's family said hurriedly: Just take charge of it

Mother Song once again told the little maid to entertain her well and not to neglect her. Then she followed the little maid to Eleven Niang's place.

Eleven Niang was sitting on the Kang by the window, wearing a lake-colored Hangzhou silk shirt, with the sleeves folded in half, revealing her frosty and snow-like wrists and the green jade bracelet on the bowl of her hand. She took a handful of bright red

The palace fan with the handle embroidered with peonies is fanning Brother Jin while he is taking a nap.

The Obon Festival was coming soon, and she asked Mama Song to help me go to Ciyuan Temple.

Every year at this time, the Xu family would donate money for sesame oil and ask the abbot of Ciyuan Temple to help with rituals.

Mother Song responded with a smile, took the pair of cards and left the inner courtyard to get the money for the sesame oil from the room.

When they met, they saw Xu Sichen and his young boy Wang Shu heading towards the inner courtyard in a hurry.

Mother Song stood against the wall, lowered her hands and lowered her eyes and called out, "Fourth Young Master."

Xu Sizhen was overjoyed to see her and hurriedly said: "Is mother in the house?"

Now, Mother Song was a little surprised by his behavior, but she still said respectfully, Madam is coaxing the sixth young master to take a nap.

Xu Sizhen nodded and quickly ran towards the main room.

Mother thought that she was going to clean the house as an excuse, so she ran out. She didn't dare to delay for a moment. When she saw Eleven Niang, she got straight to the point and said, "Will our family put up river lanterns this year? I made a very beautiful lotus flower."

Lanterns, mother told daddy, we will go to Biyi Lake to put out river lanterns

Seeing that he was sweating profusely from running, Eleven Niang asked the little maid to twist the handkerchief soaked in well water and wipe his face with a smile and said: "What's the problem? We can just put out the river lanterns later."

Xu Sizhen grabbed the handkerchief in the little maid's hand, wiped it randomly twice, and said: "Mom, dad said that on the Ghost Festival day, he will take me to Baiyun Temple to participate in the sour food fast."

Don't you want to go? Eleven Niang said with a smile, "I heard from your father that Wang Yun, the son of the Wang family, will also go that day. Aren't you and him very good? You can come together then."

Xu Sizhen was a little frustrated after hearing this: But I want to put up river lanterns with my fifth brother, just to show off the river lanterns he made.

Eleven Niang pursed her lips and smiled, and said: Then let’s wait until you come back before putting out the river lanterns.

When Xu Sizhen heard this, he became happy and returned to the room happily.

Mother Song had come back with the money, and whispered to Eleven Niang: Manager Wan Daxian asked me to give you a message. While the Marquis and several shopkeepers were doing the calculations, the fourth young master was yawning aside. He was in charge of Baoding.

Shopkeeper Tao Da, who was involved in the leather goods business, was very arrogant. At that time, he asked the maid in charge of tea and snacks to serve the fourth young master back to the house to sleep. At that time, the Marquis only said that the fourth young master was young and ignorant, but his face was ashen.

Eleven Niang felt a little helpless after hearing this.

She had never understood Xu Sichun very well, and felt that he didn't seem to be very attentive to anything he did.

I know that Eleventh Mother sent Mother Song away, and Grandma Huang San is here.

She drank the ice-cold mung bean soup and took a breath comfortably: Okay, this marriage is finally settled. The third lady invited Uncle Zhongqin to be the matchmaker, and the other party invited Lord Wei, the commander of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division, to be the matchmaker.

.I just have to wait for the wedding day to follow him and bring him back.

Thank you for your hard work, sister. Things have been settled, and Eleventh Mother is also relieved.

When the Jin family's dowry was delivered to Sanjing Hutong on August 19, everyone was a little surprised.

Although the dowry was only sixty-four, it was arranged so neatly that the boxes and cages containing the clothes could not be inserted with both hands.

The third lady only felt that her face was very bright, and she raised her face slightly when talking to people: Jin's family said that there was a sister-in-law who came forward, and she had to take care of her sister-in-law's face no matter what, so she put the one hundred and twenty that she had prepared.

Fourteen dowries were packed into sixty-four dowries. Speaking of which, my in-laws are really down-to-earth people.

Everyone came forward to congratulate the third lady.

There was a faint glow on the faces of the third lady.

Fang's wet nurse was so angry that she gritted her teeth: "Madam, you are too disrespectful to the eldest mistress."

Using members of the Jin family to humiliate us. No matter how many things she has, will she have as much dowry as our eldest son? Fang waved her hand calmly: There will be more of this kind of thing in the future. You all should remember it.

When you meet the third young lady, you must be polite and treat me as you would. Otherwise, don’t blame me for turning against her and not recognizing her.

The wet nurse knew that Mr. Fang would do what he said, so she looked solemn and respectfully obeyed.

But the fifth lady yawned and asked the eleventh lady: Are you staying here for the night today? I want to go back early and I will be a Quanfu person tomorrow.

The people here are busy and trivial, so she didn't bring brother Jin here.

Mother Song and the others were helping to watch, and the people at the scene were all capable people. Eleven Niang smiled and asked Zhu Xiang to put away the cards. I was thinking about Brother Jin and was ready to go back and watch.

look

Let's go together then. The Fifth Madam yawned again. Madam Lin and the others will come tomorrow on time, and they don't have to entertain guests. There is nothing to do if they stay.

Eleven Niang smiled and nodded, and went to bid farewell to the third lady with the fifth lady.

While wiping cards with relatives of the Gan family, the third lady talked about the Jin family's dowry: There are two 300-acre farms in Daxing, and with the shops on East Street, there will be no shortage of food and clothing in this life.

Hearing that the two were going back to Hehuāli, the third lady asked Xingjiao to help wipe the cards and sent the two to the door: Although my place is small, I have lived in the house for more than 20 years, and the house can be considered well organized.

It's clean and tidy. You just brought Brother Jin and Brother Shen here. You seemed to blame them for not bringing the children.

Bring it over early tomorrow morning." The fifth lady responded with a smile, and got into the carriage with the eleventh mother.

Fortunately, the third sister-in-law and the others moved out, otherwise our house would be very lively. She curled her lips and asked, did you pay attention when decorating the wedding hall in the morning? The third sister-in-law said that she would use red and gold paper, but the eldest mistress said that it was red

For such a trivial matter, the third master actually intervened to sell gold paper. Although he obeyed the third sister-in-law and sprinkled gold paper with bright red, but when it came time to offer fresh fruits, he obeyed the eldest mistress and used a turquoise porcelain high plate.

Here, she hides her sleeves and smiles. I think the third master listens to the left and makes sense, and listens to the right and makes sense. It’s not clear. However, after all, the third sister-in-law and the third master are married couples, but our eldest mistress can do it in front of the father-in-law.

Speaking of which, I feel that our young mistress is acting unusually.

At first, Eleven Niang was worried that if the third master and the third wife were idle at home, the third wife would use her mother-in-law's money to suppress Fang's life, and Fang's life would be difficult. Now it seems that Fang is also a very smart person.

That's because both of them have their own reasons. She smiled and said, I think our grandma is pretty good and a sensible person.

The fifth lady thought of the ancient treasures that Fang had given to Brother Shen as a gift for her first birthday, and she laughed: Well, I think so too.

The two talked and looked at each other and smiled.

He crossed the money and grain basin, worshiped heaven and earth, sat in the tent, and recognized his relatives the next day.

Maybe they learned the lesson from the last time. This time, the third lady dressed up very simply. There was no phoenix hairpin in the meeting with Jin, but a red gold necklace. Eleven Niang and the fifth lady dressed up as they did last time for Fang.

Jin was rewarded for the meeting. None of the three grandmothers from Nanjing came. Only the steward and the capable steward’s mother came with gifts and greeting gifts. Several relatives of the Gan family left the house on the pretext that they had something to do when their newlywed son came in last night.

. Compared with the scene when Xu Siqin got married, it was somewhat inferior.

The new Jin family didn't know this. She only felt that the Xu family was as wealthy as her mother said. The two aunts' meeting gifts were very expensive, which showed that they were very satisfied with her.

After paying tribute to the shoes and socks, Jin didn't even eat lunch. The fifth lady accompanied her, and the third lady took her to the lotus to kowtow to the dowager.

Mrs. Tai was very satisfied when she saw Jin, who still had a childish face and big clear eyes. She pulled her and talked for a long time. When she returned to Sanjing Hutong, Jin's face was still full of excitement.

The third lady looked at the little daughter-in-law and her children and was also very satisfied.

Children are easy to coax, and when the time comes, they will get whatever they say.
