26. Beep
In the evening, Mrs. Ning held a banquet. Shen felt that Mrs. Ning's eyes fell on her several times, so she looked up and smiled at Mrs. Ning with a smile. Mrs. Ning said, "Can the food in the prefecture be even more suitable?"
Shen smiled, "I'm the first time I came to the prefecture, and it's the first time I've seen many dishes. Thank you for your hospitality." Now she is not as nervous as in the morning. I think the Ning family is just a little richer. Although her family is poor, she doesn't lack food and clothing, and it's not about coming to the Ning family to benefit from his family. Shen is a smart person, and although she is the best dress, she is obviously not as decent as the big maid next to Mrs. Ning. But what's the matter? She is not a slave to the Ning family.
Mrs. Shen was frank, and Mrs. Ning was even more innate and laughed, "Then let's stay for a few more days. I'm fine all day long, so I hope my relatives will come and go more."
Shen smiled, "This time I can come with my aunt to see my cousin and see my wife, it is a rare fortune. I yearn for my wife so politely, but our wife is still old and young at home, and she is really worried about it."
Mrs. Ning no longer stayed empty-handed.
The Ning family is a wealthy family. The women wear exquisite jewelry on their heads and beautiful silk. Even the widowed ones like Xiao Chen, the dresses are just plain in color and the material is not bad. Shen's eyes are dizzy when he sees such a jewel and a wealthy scene.
Fortunately, the banquet was not long, so Aunt Chen naturally rested in the courtyard of her daughter Xiao Chen's family. Shen and He Gong were staying in the courtyard. Chen Sanlang was taken by Mr. Ning San to settle.
When the young couple talked at night, they couldn't help but sigh at the wealth of the Ning family. Shen asked, "Have you seen Master Ning San?"
"Brother Ning San is so beautiful." He Gong's words were beyond Shen's expectations. However, the matter of Ning Sixth Master was handled by this Master Ning, and He Gong sighed, "You can't blame Ning Three Brother Ning for your cousin."
Shen raised his eyebrows and He Gong whispered, "I'm going to hide it from you, this time, Brother Ning San told us the truth. He did have the intention of being happy at the beginning, but this marriage was not something that Ning's family asked for, but Aunt Chen clinged to the Ning family and secretly wrote her cousin's horoscope, making the Ning family get along. It was indeed a sign of great luck, and the Ning family agreed to marry and get married."
Shen frowned, "Why do you have to make excuses when getting engaged?"
"It is difficult for a family like the Ning family to be heard, so I asked for an excuse." After He Gong said this, Shen believed it. The money was touching. If he could exchange his daughter for salt, I don't know how many families would be happy. As long as the Ning family was a little whispering, it would be impossible for Uncle Chen to compete for the position. Thinking of this, Shen added a layer of disdain to Uncle Chen, and Shen said, "Since this matter is not easy to spread, why did Master Ning tell him again?"
He Gong said, "Brother Ning San doesn't want us to misunderstand."
Shen lowered his head and thought, what Ning Sanye meant was probably to remind the Chen family that the Ning family was not a fraudulent marriage, the Ning family was a legitimate marriage. If your Chen family gets the benefits, you should also know that the transaction has been cleared, and then the in-laws will be put into the brochure.
Shen only kept this in his heart and did not say it to her husband. It was too late, and the couple stopped talking after a while.
After meeting Xiao Chen's cousin, the matter was also told. Xiao Chen's cousin wrote a letter to his father. Aunt Chen kept it for another day and said goodbye to Mrs. Ning. Mrs. Ning couldn't keep it, so she ordered Mrs. Ning to send someone out with great difficulty.
Aunt Chen, Chen Sanlang and his son always felt uncomfortable when they saw that Ning Sanye was selling his daughter at a price. Now they came to Ning Mansion to show off their in-laws. Aunt Chen, Chen Sanlang, are still people with a little shamelessness, and they are quite guilty and have no confidence. However, He Gong, he is born with a good temperament and thinks about things more often when encountering people. When he first met, he had already identified Ning Sanlang as an open-minded person. At this time, the intimate person who spoke with Ning Sanlang was very funny. Ning Sanlang felt very funny and thought to himself that there were such stupid people in the world.
Fortunately, the Ning family's children are the most in need of cultivation. They patiently listen to He Gong's words. Ning Sanlang responded to He Gong kindly and naturally, "When I have time, I will go to Bishui County to find my brother to have wine."
He Gong bowed and said goodbye, "Then I'll wait for Brother Ning San at home."
Ning Sanlang sent He Gong away with a farewell look.
Shen couldn't help laughing in the car, thinking that this wealthy family was ridiculous, but she had to pretend to be so gentle and polite at all times. She would be suffocated to death. It would be better than the small family's love and worldly style and happiness and anger as they please.
When Aunt Chen saw Shen smile, she patted Shen's hand, "Do you miss Zijin?" She thought Shen was worried about her young daughter at home, so she was happy to return home.
Shen said, "It's fake to say that he doesn't want to be taken care of by her, but he is not very worried about having his mother take care of her at home."
Aunt Chen sighed, "It's the same as mothers." When she thought of her daughter, she couldn't help feeling sore.
Shen said, "Don't worry, aunt, you will get better slowly."
Shen's words were a sense of certainty. When she heard that Aunt Chen was stunned, she nodded slightly and said, "Yes, it will get better." She said with shame, "In the past, I had many misunderstandings about my niece-in-law. My niece-in-law ran with me without any grudges, which made me feel dissatisfied." My daughter was blessed and met such a heartless father. In comparison, she had never given Shen a good face before. No matter whether Shen was willing to follow her to help the prefecture for He Gong's sake or whatever. It was so rare.
Aunt Chen was willing to know her relationship, and this trip was not in vain. Shen comforted, "Why do you have to say such a heretic, and it is inevitable that the family will be bumpy and bumpy when they live. After all, it is still a family."
Aunt Chen murmured, "Yes, it's still a family."
There is no need to make a detailed statement on the return trip. Shen’s face is not showing off, but he is like returning home. In the past, he used to complain that his daughter chattered all day long at home, but after only four or five days of leaving, he was already worried. I wonder if his daughter is good at home, and if she was wronged?
Shen's kind mother thought a lot. In fact, it is great that He Zijin's temperament is not to give others grievances. He's mother always mutters about He Zijin, "Don't always eat at the patriarch's house. It's not that the family doesn't have your food. It's embarrassing to eat at others every day."
He Zijin was not afraid to say anything at all. She was full of reason and said, "There is no meat at home, I want to eat meat!" He Zijin's temperament is hard to describe. Her father eats at home, and that is fish and meat. If his father doesn't eat at home one day, He will ask the kitchen to treat the side dishes. He was not intentionally mean to Shen's He Zijin, and He also ate this way. Later, He Gong said that it would be better to make a few times before he could make a correction. Now that He Gong is not at home, He Madam He has an old problem again. He Zijin asks to eat meat, but was scolded by He Madam He and returned to "spending family". He Zijin went out to find food by himself. She either eat at He Luo's house or go to the wife of Xian Gu, but she doesn't have a home anyway. He Madam He sometimes can't find her, which is quite anger.
At this moment, He Zijin muttered to eat meat again, and Old Mother He was angry, "I'm so greedy, I can't be so greedy if I don't eat meat! I'll eat meat when your father comes back!"
What Mrs. He said, "Without meat, He Zijin just doesn't eat at home. Old woman He was so angry that she was half-armed. Madam Yu laughed and advised, "Who doesn't like eating meat at the child's house? I think the old man also likes to eat meat when he was a child. Isn't the wife really angry? I want me to say that if the old man comes back and sees his elder sister lose weight, it's time to feel distressed."
Seeing Madam Yu mention her son, Old Madam He snorted coldly, "I don't know how my sister is doing." She was worried about Aunt Chen in her heart.
Madam Yu poured a cup of warm tea and continued, "Before the uncle left, Te Te quietly instructed me to serve my wife carefully, especially three meals a day, so I must not call my wife too frugal. When the uncle comes back, he knows that his wife cannot eat, so he must blame me for being incompetent."
When Mrs. He heard that her son was so filial, she immediately calmed down, drank half a cup of tea, and smiled, "Kung'er, this child... I'm at home, I'm having a good meal, but he's out. Oh, I don't know if I'm used to the food in the state capital."
Madam Yu smiled, "Madam, don't worry, the old man is more prosperous every day, and with a big grandmother by his side, the old man who can always serve is full of money."
Thinking of Shen, Mrs. He habitually wanted to find faults, but she couldn't find them out for a while, so she turned her mouth and had to give up.
Madam Yu continued to talk about He Gong, which made Mrs. He smiled and promised to buy some fish the next day.
Madam Yu told He Zijin about this. He Zijin put his hands together and said, "Amitus Buddha, Madam, you have great merits." I thought it was Madam Yu who persuaded Madam He to cut his flesh.
Madam Yu looked at He Zijin's little model and acted like an adult. She couldn't help but smile and bent her eyes, touched her head, and said, "Does sister want to worship Buddha?"
"Worshiping Buddha is useless, worshiping nanny is useful."
Madam Yu couldn't stop smiling, "Sister is so young, he can be funny." She is the dowry of Mrs. He and has never married in her life. Seeing He Gong grow up, now she looks at He Zijin and likes him from the bottom of her heart, but Shen and Mrs. He is not in harmony with her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. He Zijin rarely comes to Mrs. He. Listening to her interesting words, Madam Yu smiled and asked, "What kind of dishes do I want to eat? I will ask Mrs. Chef to cook next week next time."
He Zijin gestured, "Last year, there were small silverfish of this size inch at the market. I came back and marinated them, wrapped them with egg paste and fried them. It was delicious."
Madam Yu thought it was strange and exclaimed, "I know how to do it?" She is such a young child. Madam Yu is the one who helped Mother He raise He Gong and knows what ordinary children look like.
He Zijin did not hide his intelligence, but just asked Madam Yu, "Madam, I know how to fry the little fish. Do you think I am like a prodigy?"
Madam Yu... was so amazed in her heart and said with a smile, "Sister is indeed smart." It's better not to make children too proud.
He Zijin: If you travel through time, how can you hide your IQ? If you ask, "Are I a prodigy?" No one immediately thinks you are a prodigy. The world is so cruel. Humans can never believe in the truth in front of you!
After sighing in his stomach, He Zijin ordered several good dishes with Madam Yu. Compared to Madam He, Madam Yu's kindness is more like a grandmother. At night, Madam Yu is afraid that she will not be abusive to sleep in the bed, so Madam Yu even coaxes her to sleep.
When the young couple returned, they paid homage to Mrs. He and told him about the Ning family in detail. Mrs. He was a little relieved and said, "The mutton is stewed under the kitchen, you can go back to the room to wash it first, and come over to have a meal later."
Having not seen my daughter in the past half a day, He Gong asked, "Mom, where is Zijin, why didn't you see me?"
These days, he was alone with He Zijin. Old Madam He was so annoyed that her forehead was aching. He said angrily, "I'm out of the wild."
He Gong:...
Shen was unhappy and still whispered warmly, "You'll go to Alu's house to study at this time."
Madam Yu smiled, "Yes, the old man and grandma went to the prefecture, and the eldest sister still went to the patriarch's house to study with Young Master Luo every day, and it didn't take a day to go. I'll call my sister back, and my sister talked about how many days it has been."
Shen laughed, "Madam Lao takes care of her. She will come back after Zijin finishes her studies. Don't delay her studies." Although she is not a serious study, Shen also hopes that her daughter will recognize more words.
Madam Yu smiled, "I'm very sensible. After spending a few days with my wife, my wife is more energetic than usual."
After hearing this, Old Madam He forced herself to express her opinion.
The couple knew that their daughter was very good, so they went back to the room to wash.
