Chapter 666 Daughter-in-law (1) 666
Eleven Niang’s impression of Miss Jiang Jiajiu was still from when she was a child. She had fair skin, big eyes, and the sound of big beads falling on her pantyhose. When they were congratulating each other, she first saw the person in front of her wearing a big red bandana.
When the beautiful woman with her silk braid was combed into a peony updo surrounded by beads, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment before showing a friendly smile. Just as Mrs. Jiang had finished serving tea at Xu Lingyi, under the guidance of Quanfu's wife Huang Sannǎǎi, she took care of her from the maid.
In the big red lacquer plate, there was a mist red tea cup with auspicious dragons and phoenixes. He raised it above his head: mother-in-law, drink tea.
The sound is still so clear and nice.
Eleven Niang smiled and took the tea cup, just like when Xiang entered the door, she gave ninety-nine taels of red gold noodle noodles and a nine hundred and ninety-nine tael silver banknote as a meeting gift. But Xiang's noodle noodles were made of yu
In the shape of a hairpin huā, Jiang’s head and face are in the style of a peony huā.
Mrs. Jiang blushed and thanked her softly, and gave Eleven Niang two pairs of embroidered shoes and two pairs of socks as an unboxing gift.
Two pairs of embroidered shoes, one green and one purple. The green pair is embroidered with pink plum blossoms and has rice-sized pearls as stamens. The purple pair is embroidered with goose-yellow orchid flowers, with white ones.
Silk thread outlines the outline. It can be seen that a lot of effort has been put into both the color matching and the workmanship. The Huang family and the Xu family are on good terms, and Mrs. Huang is someone who likes to add to the cake, so she has to find out the bad things.
Good job, not to mention that these two pairs of shoes are very outstanding. At that time, I clicked my tongue and said a few times: This is really in line with the old saying, if you are not a family, you will not enter the same house. Look at the embroidery of my fourth daughter-in-law.
The work, I think, is no worse than the fourth lady’s. He said with a smile, now it’s better, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were just discussing the embroidery work together, so they didn’t have to worry about running out of things to say.
Everyone joined in the fun and laughed.
Mrs. Jiang thought of her mother's words: Your mother-in-law is a concubine and a step-mother. She is not a simple person to be where she is today. When you enter, be careful. Talk less and do more. Follow the rules and don't offend your mother-in-law.
Feeling unhappy.
It took me half a year to make these embroidered shoes, she said slightly, not daring to be praised by Huang San's mother. She neither demeaned herself nor flattered Eleven Niang. She also pointed out her appreciation for unpacking the shoes for her mother-in-law.
The importance of etiquette.
Mrs. Zhou raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this, and glanced at Eleven Niang who was sitting there with a smile.
Nanny Huang felt that the new fourth young lady was very good at talking. She laughed twice and led Mrs. Jiang to the third lady: This is your third aunt.
Jiang Di knelt down and kowtowed to serve tea.
The third lady looked very happy. She took Mrs. Jiang's hand and praised her a few words, as she was given as a greeting gift when Mrs. Xiang came in.
Ms. Jiang thanked her in a low voice and opened the box with two handkerchiefs.
Then Huang Sannǎǎi led her around in front of the fifth lady, which took more than an hour.
Although she had collected a lot of things, she was still very tired. Not only did Jiang not dare to show any signs of it, she also tried her best to make her smile gentle and respectful, and followed her mother-in-law to the hall where the banquet was held.
go.
Among the female relatives who came, Mrs. Zhou had the most distinguished status because she was the mother of the Crown Princess. Eleven Niang walked at the front with her, while Mrs. Gan, Mrs. Huang’s third wife, walked beside her chatting and laughing. The fifth Mrs. deliberately lagged a few steps behind.
He came together with his sister-in-law and the third wife, Luo Da nǎǎi, and others. Not only was Mrs. Jiang pushed to the side, but she also fell behind everyone.
Someone squeezed her hand gently and quickly let go.
Mrs. Jiang's attention was focused on Eleven Niang, and she couldn't help being surprised. When she looked up, she saw that it was Xu Sizhen.
But Xu Sizhen also looked at her, with unconcealed concern in his eyes.
She suddenly thought about yesterday's bridal chamber, where her face turned red, like a piece of silk.
Xu Diaozhen suddenly became at a loss.
,Are you okay? He murmured. There are curbs next to them that will help your feet.
Her heart felt warm.
The sadness of marrying far away and the fear of the future all became far away because of his words.
"I, I'm fine," Mrs. Jiang said, suddenly thinking that Xu Sizhen should be accompanying his father-in-law to accompany the male guests. Why did he come here? Although the scene just now was a bit messy, it was in full view of everyone, so there was no guarantee that anyone would see it. I heard that my husband was a humble gentleman.
, as soon as she entered the door, her husband was protecting her like this. If the news reached her mother-in-law, I wonder if her mother-in-law would think she was frivolous and her eyes fell on Eleven Niang.
Mrs. Zhou didn't know what she said. Eleven Niang Huang Sannǎǎi, Mrs. Gan and others all covered their sleeves and smiled, as if they didn't notice what was going on here at all.
Mrs. Jiang couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. She was about to ask Xu Sizhen when she heard a whisper in her ears, which made her feel guilty. Unexpectedly, she followed the sound with panic. She saw a pair of eyes that looked like a smile but not a smile.
It's my sister-in-law, Mrs. Fang.
Mrs. Jiang felt her face was burning, and she was thinking about whether to go over and take Ms. Fang's arm, chat with her for a while, and reveal the matter as if nothing had happened. Ms. Fang had already asked
Xu Sizhen: Did the fourth uncle come to invite the four younger brothers and sisters to come with him to say hello to the dowager? He said this and smiled.
Although the Madam is a grandmother, she is also a widow. At this time, it is not appropriate to accept the kneeling of the newlyweds in the auditorium.
Although it was a family banquet, it was divided into men and women. The male guests were in the small hall where they had just received the ceremony, and the female relatives were in the warm pavilion next to the small hall.
Xu Sizhen was ordered by Xu Lingyi to see off the guests. When he came back, he saw Eleven Niang and others going to Nuang Pavilion. He couldn't help but search in the crowd and happened to see Mrs. Jiang alone.
Naturally, I have to pay attention to the bride, and she is expected to come over as soon as I ask and answer questions.
Yes, Xu Sizhen realized his rudeness and couldn't help but cast a grateful glance at Mr. Fang, and whispered in a low voice, "Father asked us to go and pay our respects to Mrs. Fang."
Eleven Niang and Xu Lingyi had discussed this.
After the newlyweds have accompanied the guests to the banquet place, they will first go to salute the wife, then come back to sit down at the banquet, and then go to see the second wife in the afternoon.
Then hurry up and go. The situation can change at any time. Although the newlyweds did not send the guests to the banquet place, it is not rude to send them away. Eleven Niang smiled and ordered Xu Sizhen and Jiang.
The two of them made an appointment, and expecting Wan to nod, they went to Mrs. Ding's place together.
When Sanchao returned home, Eleventh Mother saw off the guests from Nanjing, and took Jiang's Aunt Wen to accompany Sister Zhen to Daxiangguo Temple, Baiyunguan and other places to have fun. There were plenty of food, clothing, and entertainment.
After loading two large carriages, he reluctantly sent Sister Zhen off.
Brother Jin whispered to Eleven Niang: Mom, let’s go see my eldest sister next year. My eldest brother-in-law said that their fields are full of jujube trees. This time next year will be the time to harvest jujubes. I haven’t harvested jujubes yet.
It is a good thing for children to go out and broaden their horizons.
It's just that this matter is very difficult.
It is impossible for her to leave all the old and young in the family and only take Brother Jin to Cangzhou, and it is even less possible for her to take all the old and young in the family to Cangzhou. It is even less possible for Xu Lingyi. When he goes out, he represents Yongping Hou Mansion, some
Etiquette is inevitable, some entertainment is indispensable, and some things are not allowed, which will completely lose the meaning of travel.
Just as I was thinking about it, Xu Siyu came over.
, I have already agreed with my father that I will set off back to Le'an in the next two days. He said a little embarrassedly, Xiang's place, I can only ask my mother to worry about it. Don't worry, Eleven Niang said with a smile, I will take good care of her.
The two of them were talking and the matter about Brother Jin got sidetracked.
In the evening, brother Jin squeezed into Xu Lingyi's quilt and whispered to his father: "Let's go see the eldest sister." Xu Lingyi laughed and twisted his son's nose: "Tell the truth, do you want to see the eldest sister or go out to play?"
I think so, Brother Jin murmured, Brother Jing and I have made an appointment. If I go to Cangzhou, he will take me to meet his third brother. His third brother has played in six martial arts schools in Cangzhou, which is amazing.
Xu Lingyi laughed and said, wait until you are older before going. Brother Jin is very disappointed.
But when it snowed for the first time in Yanjing, Xu Lingyi took him to Baoding.
The madam looked at the continuous heavy snow, and couldn't help but regret: If I had known this, I shouldn't have answered. He took brother Jin with him. He was so rough-skinned that he was not afraid. We brother Jin had never seen such a person.
In the formation, both the Marquis and Brother Jin were wearing fur coats and brought a carriage of Yinshuang Tan. The eleventh mother was busy comforting the wife. They rested in the inn along the way and brought so many guards. There would be no
What's going on?
After hearing this, the madam frowned tightly.
"Old Eleven Niang took Eleven Niang's hand and you spent time with him day and night. Did he say anything to you?" Mrs. Shen Yin said, "I have been thinking about this for a long time. Seeing that the New Year is approaching, shopkeepers from all over the country are coming back to pay their accounts."
Okay. If it wasn't for something big happening at the racecourse in Baoding, why did he rush to Baoding at this time? Why did he ask Brother Jin to accompany him? He also had a companion along the way. I think he acted like this because he was afraid that I would worry.
Xu Lingyi said the same thing in front of her, but from her point of view, he didn't want to stay at home at all and found an excuse to take brother Jin out for a walk. Otherwise, he would not have decided to go to Baoding for a few days.
Feeling so relaxed.
If the racecourse really came out, with the character of the Marquis, I'm afraid he would rush over quickly. Eleven Niang smiled and sat next to the wife, why did she bring Brother Jin and said, the Marquis has been staying here for the past two years?
At home, you might as well go out for a walk
Having been a parent for so long, everyone seems to have forgotten that Xu Lingyi is only in his thirties.
Mrs. Tai understood somewhat and stopped mentioning the matter, and started talking about home affairs with Eleven Niang.
Madam Jiang, come here.
"My mother is also here." She smiled and said, "It's just right." As she said that, the maid took a red lacquered box with lotus flowers and handed it to the Dowager Madam. This is the flannel incense, which is best used when worshiping the Buddha. She took it again
I bought a box with red lacquer and gold and handed it to Eleven Niang. This is Baihua incense. It’s best to light it when I’m reading. Then I smiled and said, my mother made it herself, and it’s a little different from the incense on the market. Grandma.
Try it with your mother to see if you like it. The Jiang family sent someone to deliver New Year's gifts this morning. The fragrance must have been brought there at that time.
Mrs. Tai and Eleven Niang smiled and thanked them.
Mrs. Jiang pointed to the pile of red lacquer boxes still held in the little maid's hand: These are for the second uncle and the fifth aunt.
Go, go, Mrs. Tai said with a smile, and told her to come to my place for dinner with Brother Zhun later.
