Chapter 334: Identifying

The eleventh mother obeyed her instructions and ordered the kitchen to prepare food and wine, and returned to the dowager's place.

Qiniang was talking about what happened on the road: there was a hotel called Gao's Inn. The cakes were baked like layers of paper and rolled with minced meat. It couldn't be more delicious. But the room was too dirty. I didn't dare to stay, so I parked the carriage in the yard.

I rested all night. But when I left, the boss even charged me the money for the room.

The wife was smiling crookedly on the kang, and several children were sitting on the chairs next to the teacher. They all listened with great interest, especially Xu Siyu, who had bright eyes.

When Qiniang saw Eleven Niang coming in, she stopped talking and said with a smile, Mr. Marquis’s clogs were found.

Since Xu Lingyi found an excuse to let her go, she definitely didn't want people to know that Zhu Anping was coming. She smiled and said: "I found it and urged the children to go to bed. It's getting late."

Brother Zhen was still a little reluctant to leave, but Xu Siyu had already stood up to bow to Mrs. Tai and Eleven Niang.

Eleven Niang asked Xu Siyu to take Xu Sijie back to Lijingxuan. She and Qiniang Zhen'er went west and broke up in front of Biyi Gate. Sister Zhen went to Shaohua Courtyard, while Eleven Niang sent Qiniang to Liufang.

dock.

When the seventh brother-in-law came, she picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and said softly.

Qiniang, who was changing clothes, stiffened.

The Marquis was entertaining him for a drink. Eleven Niang said that the curfew will be in a while and he will probably stay in the outer courtyard.

Qiniang listened silently.

Eleven Niang persuaded: The seventh brother-in-law came here from Gaoqing sincerely. You have to give some thin noodles to your brother-in-law no matter what. Why don't you think about it tonight and what to say when we meet tomorrow?

Is there anything to say? Qiniang’s head is slightly drooping. Unless I give birth to a son, it will be useless to say anything.

Why is it useless? Eleven Niang stepped forward and stood by the falling flower cover. Life depends on people. There are only twists and turns between you because there is no child, so talk to him carefully. Or make up your mind to accept it.

Tongfang gives birth to a son and raises it in his name, or asks the seventh brother-in-law to give you some time, see a doctor, or pray to God. It is better than running away when trouble comes.

My Qiniang raised her head, pursed her lips, and stopped talking.

A loving couple, who would want to have one person between them. But I can't say this, because if I say it, I will be jealous.

Eleven Niang could understand her mood. She said softly: Seventh Sister, how about you take this opportunity to see a doctor in Yanjing? If there is no movement in three to five years, it will not be too late to discuss what to do then.

.

This can also give the Zhu family an explanation, so that others will not talk about it and say that Qiniang left home in anger because of the heir.

Qiniang perked up after hearing this.

Seeing that she understood what she meant, Eleven Niang calmed down and said with a smile: If the seventh sister agrees, I will ask the Marquis to invite the seventh brother-in-law to the study room tomorrow morning. You are nagging that the seventh brother-in-law rarely comes to Yanjing, so you should come early.

Now that the knot in my heart is over, I can go to visit relatives with my seventh brother-in-law earlier and see the scenic spots and historic sites in Yanjing.

Qiniang was moved after hearing this.

Then it was settled. Eleven Niang stood up and left with a smile, and returned to Fishing Waterside Pavilion.

Xu Lingyi hadn't come back yet, so she found a bright red silk thread and sat on the kang to concentrate on playing plum blossoms.

After a while, Xu Lingyi came back.

Eleven Niang dropped her slippers and stood up.

What are you doing? Xu Lingyi has already strode over.

He looked slightly drunk, looking at the red plum blossoms lying quietly in the small rattan basket: He was tying the knot.

Yes. Eleven Niang responded briefly, and while tidying up, she ordered the little maid to get the sobering soup.

Xu Lingyi picked up the string and looked at it: it's so thin and complicated, what's it for?

Wear something. Eleven Niang took the clothes back and put them in the small rattan basket.

Xu Lingyi took advantage of the situation and sat on the kang.

The little maid came over with some sobering soup.

Eleven Niang took the soup and handed it to Xu Lingyi with her own hands: "Seventh brother-in-law has rested."

Xu Lingyi nodded, drank the soup in one gulp, and then took a long breath: he settled in the guest room in the outer courtyard.

Eleven Niang took the soup bowl and placed it on the red painted crabapple flower tray held by the little maid. She gestured to the maids serving beside her, and the maids filed away quietly.

After saying something, she sat next to Xu Lingyi.

Xu Lingyi leaned crookedly on the big pillow covered with apricot-yellow kudzu cloth behind him: because of the quarrel between the couple, he made the seventh aunt back to her parents' home so angry. He went to her parents' home to pick her up all night, and then he realized that she had come to Yanjing. He hurried off as fast as possible.

come over.

But I found him two days later.

Even if the canopy car is eye-catching, it still takes time to find out.

What surprised Eleven Niang even more was that Zhu Anping actually put all the blame on himself.

What else did he say

The others didn't say much. Xu Lingyi said, since it was a husband and wife quarrel, I couldn't ask more questions.

Eleven Niang nodded secretly as she listened.

Qiniang left home because of the marriage. If word spread, it would inevitably be called unworthy. This Zhu Anping, regardless of what he had done or his friendship with Qiniang, could he return the favor in front of outsiders?

If you can protect Qiniang a lot, you are at least a considerate person. Such people are usually reasonable and easiest to communicate with.

I see that Zhu Anping speaks and acts boldly with a certain calmness, and he is not that clueless. He can also pursue him to Yanjing in a low voice. Xu Lingyi said, you might as well persuade Qi Aunt to stay in Yanjing for a few days.

, just follow Zhu Anping back to Gaoqing.

The fundamental conflict between Qiniang and Zhu Anping is the child. If this matter is not resolved, even if Qiniang goes back, there is no guarantee that she will not leave home again. If this happens too many times, no matter how loving the couple is, they will get tired. There are many

This is how couples become enemies.

I have already told the seventh sister about the seventh brother-in-law. Eleven Niang said thoughtfully, there are some things that the seventh sister couldn't change for a while. She told Qiniang and Zhu Anping about her plan and asked her to use the aunt's room to talk.

I told Xu Lingyi.

Okay, Xu Lingyi said, I will make an appointment with Zhu Anping tomorrow, and you invite Qi Aunt to the outer study.

Eleven Niang nodded and served Xu Lingyi to wash up, but stopped talking several times.

Xu Lingyi looked strange.

Eleven Niang is not such a hesitant person.

What's wrong? He lowered his voice.

Although Qiniang's matter is involved, Eleven Niang feels that Qiniang's matter will not be easy to resolve if the matter is not clarified.

Despite this, she still hesitated for a moment before saying: Before the seventh brother-in-law married the seventh sister, there was a married woman in the family, and he also had an actor. I want you to help me find out whether any of those women had children.

Xu Lingyi understood immediately after hearing this: Is it for the heirs?

Eleven Niang nodded: It would be nice if we could know whose reason it is.

Of course, it was best to ask Qiniang about this kind of thing. But she was really not sure whether Qiniang knew about Zhu Anping's pre-marriage affairs.

I'm afraid it's not that easy. Xu Lingyi poured cold water on her. Even if he didn't marry a wife, even if such a thing happened, he would find a way to cover it up.

Yes. Otherwise, the second wife would definitely not marry Qiniang to the Zhu family.

Eleven Niang was a little frustrated.

Xu Lingyi smiled disapprovingly and said: "What did I say? If there is no movement after a few years, just keep someone in the house."

Talking to him about this was like playing the harp to an ox, so Eleven Niang changed the subject and told him about the banquet for the Jiang family: First of all, it was because of my hairpin ceremony. If there is no more news, I'm afraid we will feel that we are a little neglectful.

Things have been squeezed together. Xu Lingyi listened and said, if the seventh aunt's matter can be resolved in these two days, let's settle it on the fifteenth day. If there are still some twists and turns, you first send your mother to say hello, and then make an appointment. Wait for a few days.

.

The Eleventh Mother is here.

As for the Li family, Xu Lingyi said, we can't delay it any longer. Just take some time in the next two days to go and have a look. If you think it's good, just make a decision so that the Wang family can push it forward quickly. Drag it on.

It is easy to delay and become enemies.

Sister Zhen's future was decided so quickly. Eleven Niang couldn't help but hesitate.

What's the matter? Xu Lingyi smiled when he saw it and asked, "Do you think the Li family's financial resources are too weak?"

That's not true. Shiyi's mother said, it's better for my father to have his mother to have his own. I haven't seen the child, so I don't know what to do.

Xu Lingyi thought about the matchmaking that Mrs. Lin had done before. She smiled and said: So, you have met the child of the Shao family.

We met Mrs. Lin when she went to repay the gift. Eleven Niang said, she is tall and good-looking. She is a perfect match for our Sister Zhen.

Xu Lingyi felt a little unsure when she heard what she said.

Eleven Niang has always been prudent in her actions. Since she said this, she must have a reason. Besides, Sister Zhen is a rare tall girl among girls.

He thought for a long time and said: It's better to wait until you meet the boy from the Li family before talking. His tone softened unconsciously.

Also, I haven't even met Li Ji's people, so it's too early to draw conclusions now.

Then I will take the time to meet the second young master of the Li family. Eleven Niang stood up with a smile, served Xu Lingyi and rested.
