Chapter 667: Daughter-in-law
When Ms. Jiang rushed back to Danbozhai, the sky had already darkened.
Xu Sizhen was waiting for her: why did it take so long? As he said that, he handed over a hand stove. It was so cold outside that he didn't bring a hand stove when he went out. What if he caught a cold?
The Yuan Baozhu family member who was following Mr. Jiang exchanged eyes with Mr. Jiang's personal maid Baozhu, and both of them saw joy and relief in each other's eyes.
Ever since he made the decision, Xu Sizhen often visited Jiang Bai during the Chinese New Year. Every time he mentioned Xu Sizhen, Jiang Bo's wife said that he was pure, honest and honest. Repeatedly, there were no new words.
Jiang Song's wife couldn't help but murmur in her heart: Just tell the truth, don't say anything else, maybe this child is a little dull, and she can't help but feel a little worried. Before getting married, Jiang Song's wife also specifically told Yuan Baozhu's family: "Young man."
I'm not sensible, you have to persuade me to make peace. I'm a little talkative, so let the lady say a few more words.
But I never thought that my uncle was a man of few words, but he would have endless things to say when he met the young lady. In addition, he was tolerant to others and was gentle and considerate towards the young lady. It was so harmonious that the escorts who followed him relaxed.
tone.
I went to deliver something to my grandmother and mother, how could I hold a hand stove? Mrs. Jiang looked at her husband with a cheerful light in her eyes. I will wear more clothes and go out next time. Then he said, when I went to the fifth aunt's place, I happened to meet
When I arrived, Sister Xin brought some needlework to show to Aunt Five. She heard that I was here to deliver incense, so she opened the box. Holding the stove, she slowly entered the inner room side by side with Xu Sichen, and I delivered the incense.
Hers was rose scent, and she liked it very much. She said it smelled much better than the perfume they made at home, and asked me if I had any recipes.
Then you gave it to her. Xu Sichen looked at his wife with a smile, and felt that her smile was as peaceful as the moonlight, which made him like it very much.
How can I have a prescription? Jiang said with a smile, my mother made incense because I came to your house that year and said that your fragrant dew was good. My mother found an ancient prescription and made it at home. It took two
It took three years to complete. I started playing around on the sidelines, but eventually it didn't work, so I lost patience. Now that I think about it, I should have followed my mother and learned from it, lest my second sister wanted to do it, but I couldn't help it. However,
I told my second sister that I would write a letter to Anle when I got back and ask my mother to send me the prescription.
While they were talking, the two of them had arrived in front of the big kang by the window, and Xu Sizhen helped Jiang sit down by the kang.
When I went to my second aunt's place, she was working on an arithmetic problem. I was going to put down my things and leave quietly, but Sister Yuexiang insisted on going and reported it, which alerted my second aunt, who specially invited me to drink tea. Mrs. Jiang said
, Bi Luo brought the tea over with a smile, Xu Sizhen put the tea Bi Luo handed him in front of Jiang, then took the tea Bi Luo handed over and took a sip gently, and continued to listen carefully.
Mrs. Jiang talked and told me about incense again. So I came back late.
The second aunt is also good at making incense. Xu Sizhen said with a smile, in the early years, the incense at home was made by the second aunt. In the past two years, the second aunt became interested in stargazing, so she made less. By the way,
Did Second Aunt tell you about her stargazing? Last time when Sixth Brother went there, Second Aunt asked Sixth Brother to talk about the Big Dipper and the Big Bear. After hearing this, Sixth Brother was about to run away. Second Aunt said
I took a set of water trucks to coax the sixth brother, and then the sixth brother stayed obediently.
Jiang's water cart sounds interesting, what kind of water cart?
Xu Sizhen explained: It is a wooden carriage, about one foot high and two feet long. A bucket is made on the car. Pour water into the bucket, and the carriage can move by itself.
Ah, the second aunt can still do this. Mrs. Jiang's eyes widened, can you let the second aunt show it to me so that I can experience it too? She said, pulling Xu Sizhen's sleeve.
Xu Sizhen felt that his heart was floating gently like the sleeves.
The second aunt looked stern, but she was actually very kind to others. He smiled and said, it's too late today, I'll go with you early tomorrow morning.
Mrs. Jiang hesitated a little: isn’t my husband going to class tomorrow?
It doesn't matter. Xu Sichen said hurriedly, I will just go and ask for leave from Mr. Zhao later.
This, this is not good, Mrs. Jiang said uneasily, if her father-in-law and mother-in-law find out,
Xu Sizhen laughed: It's such a good snow, even if I don't ask for leave, Mr. Zhao might also take a leave, and then invite a few friends to enjoy the snow.
Mrs. Jiang was surprised.
Although her father is the principal of the academy, he still attends classes. He is never late and comes home early, let alone giving students a day off to enjoy the snow.
He wanted to say something, but Yuan Baozhu's family on the side coughed lightly and reminded softly: "Fourth Young Master, Fourth Young Master nǎǎi, it's getting late, we have to go to the Madam's place. If we let the Madam and Madam wait, we won't
alright.
Look at me, I forgot about this. Mrs. Jiang was busy changing clothes with Yuan Baozhu's family.
Yuan Baozhu's family whispered: "Four young nǎǎi, we are ten miles apart, and the customs in our hometown are different, let alone Le'an and Yanjing. I wonder if the gentleman who is sitting in the house wants to give the students a holiday, how can he hide it from the Marquis and his wife?"
The master and his wife were silent, obviously acquiescing. As a newbie, it is best not to speak in a hurry about some things, so as not to make the fourth young master unhappy and spoil the relationship between the couple.
Mrs. Jiang nodded slightly, and went to the Tai Madam's place with Xu Sizhen. The next day, they went to the Second Madam's place together.
The door of the second lady's study room was closed tightly. Yuexiang smiled and said: I will go and report it to the second lady.
This time, Mrs. Jiang held Yuxiang’s hand tightly: Sister Yuxiang, if someone hits my father like this when he is studying, he will lose his temper. I don’t want to make my second aunt angry.
Seeing her sincerity, Yuexiang thought that Mr. Jiang was also a scholar and she had seen a lot. She would not blame the second lady for being rude, so she stopped insisting and brought out the cedar tea made by the second lady with a smile to entertain the guests. Jiang saw the tea
She was very special, pulling Yuexiang around and asking questions. Xu Sichen came to play with Mrs. Jiang, and seeing that she was happy, he naturally followed her. The two of them sat at the second lady's place for most of an hour.
Mrs. Jiang already knew how to make this cedar tea, so she stood up and said goodbye to Yue Xiang.
Xu Sizhen told Yuexiang: When the second aunt is free, please let us know. We will come to visit you then.
Mr. Jiang, we'll come back when you take a break. Before Yuexiang could answer, Mrs. Jiang had already smiled gently and said, "Looking at the posture of the second aunt, I'm afraid she won't be free for a while."
The fourth young nǎǎi’s guess was really accurate. Yuexiang couldn’t help but said sincerely, there is such a big volume of sutras.
Then we should come when we take a bath. Xu Sizhen followed the good example, chatted and laughed with Mr. Jiang and returned to the house.
When the second lady came out to have dinner, Jie Xiang told Xu Sizhen and Jiang the purpose of their visit.
Take out the water cart and put it in the banquet room. The second lady said, if they come again, just show it to them. After saying that, she thought for a moment and then said, this Jiang family is not bad. He knows how to persuade Brother Zhun to study.
But when the second lady said this, she paused and pointed to a bowl of mushroom soup on the table. This is good. I will make another bowl tomorrow. She changed the subject lightly.
When Xu Sichen retired, they were not yet adults. There were a lot of things at home, and Xiang was pregnant again. Eleven Niang asked Jiang to learn how to handle housework. Jiang also learned at home.
, but things are not as complicated as those of the Xu family, and the rules of the two families are different. Mrs. Jiang does not dare to be sloppy, so she gathers all her energy. When she returns to the house, she sometimes discusses with Yuan Baozhu’s family, how can she dare to go there at this time?
Look at the water train.
Then let's wait until father comes back. Xu Sizhen comforted Mrs. Jiang. Father is back, and the sixth brother is also coming back. Mother will definitely rest for two days. You will have some time off by then.
You can't just rest at home just because your mother-in-law is busy with Uncle Six's affairs. But she can think of her husband's kindness.
Let's talk about it then, she said tactfully, not knowing what her mother planned.
Xu Sizhen nodded, feeling that his wife's words made sense.
On the day of Laba porridge, Xu Lingyi and Brother Jin rushed back.
Is it fun in Baoding? The eleventh mother hugged her son, who seemed to have grown taller, and kissed him hard on the face twice, and then she felt relieved.
Brother Jin chuckled.
Xu Lingyi patted his son on the shoulder and said: Go back to the house and wash up. Let's go to grandma's place to drink Laba porridge.
Brother Jin smiled and returned to the house, surrounded by a large group of maids and wives.
Xu Lingyi opened his arms and held Eleven Niang tightly in his arms, kissing her hard twice on the face.
Oh, Eleven Niang glanced at the maid serving in the room, why are you so crazy?
The maids all looked at each other, pursed their lips, smiled and retreated.
You care about him, I care about you. Xu Lingyi did not let go. He smiled and kissed her twice on the cheek.
Eleven Niang's face was slightly red.
The Marquis still didn't hurry up to wash up, and she was struggling. My mother is looking forward to your return every day, and now I'm just afraid of getting the letter. If you don't go, maybe Zhihong will come over to urge you.
Xu Lingyi fixed her eyes and said, "Wash it for me." His mellow voice was a little lower, and it had a slightly ambiguous flavor.
Eleven Niang turned her face sideways and hummed softly, her face as bright as a rosy sky.
Xu Lingyi laughed softly and carried her into the clean room.
The madam waited for a long time but still didn't see her son come to greet her. She couldn't help but became anxious: Why hasn't he gotten up yet and wanted to get off the kang to have a look?
Seeing that you are in a hurry. Mother Du smiled and stepped forward to help the wife. Mr. Hou just came in, why should he freshen up? Besides, Zhihong has already gone to rush, so you can just wait patiently. He was also muttering in his heart what was going on.
so long.
Mrs. Tai had no choice but to sit down again, feeling empty in her heart, and asked Yuban repeatedly: Are the Laba porridge ready?
Don’t worry, Yu Ban said with a smile, it will be kept warm in the small kitchen. You can eat it as soon as the Marquis comes.
It was winter and I was rushing back from outside again. The wife muttered that it was not good to keep it warm, so it would be better to have it warmer.
I'm going to give instructions to the kitchen. Yuban responded, turned around and walked out.
The curtain was suddenly lifted open, and a red figure broke in.
Grandma, grandma, I'm back
