Chapter 665 Lively (Part 2) 665
After August 15th, people who had friendship with the Xu family began to send congratulations. The front door of the Xu Mansion, which had always been somewhat deserted, began to become lively.
Mrs. Tai had stopped taking office two years ago. Although Xu Sizhen's wedding was just around the corner, the old man felt relieved because Eleven Niang was presiding over the ceremony.
I was chatting with Mama Du and Mrs. Du, amusing the grandchildren, and reviewing the clothes that the Xu family had made for Mrs. Jiang. When the Jiang family came over with a dowry gift list, they lived a leisurely and festive life.
Today is not about socializing, but tomorrow is about socializing. Although the fifth lady is helping me, Xu Lingyi rarely has free time, let alone Xu Lingyi. Eleven Niang secretly laughed with Hu Hu: Fortunately, brother Zhun
As the crown prince, the marriage must be carried out in accordance with the etiquette set by the Ministry of Etiquette. The wedding banquets have to be taken care of by Manager Bai and Manager Zhao. Otherwise, we will be even busier.
Amber served Eleven Niang a cup of hot tea with a smile, and said with a smile: If the fourth young master was not the prince, he would naturally follow the etiquette of the second young master when he got married. There might not be so many guests at home, and the banquet would not necessarily have so many tables.
, I don’t have to be so busy anymore.
Eleven Niang smiled: I didn’t think about it.
Qiu Yu and others covered their mouths and laughed.
Mom, when I got married, I asked my daughter-in-law to support me. Brother Jin, who was drawing pictures on the side, suddenly raised his head and said something, asking you to just look around every day like the madam. This way you can sleep in every day. These days
Sometimes when he came to greet his parents, his mother still hadn't gotten up.
Eleven Niang considered that as Xu Sichen's wedding was approaching, there would be no distinguished guests coming to congratulate her. If the small study room was to be used and Brother Jin was there to show off his love, Xu Lingyi would have to ask him to see the guests, which would not be conducive to Brother Jin's study.
, let Brother Jin draw pictures in his inner room, while he only meets guests in the flower hall.
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Brother Jin was very dissatisfied and shouted with a red face: What I said is true.
Eleven Niang hurriedly comforted the little guy: OK, OK, OK. I'm waiting for Brother Jin to get a wife.
Everyone laughed again.
Brother Jin's cheeks are as bulging as a frog's.
Xu Siyu and his wife rushed back from Le'an.
When his mother gave a big gift to Eleven Niang, Xu Siyu helped Xiang who was getting up.
Eleven Niang's heart moved. She looked Xiang up and down, then looked at Xu Siyu and smiled: Do you have anything else to say to me?
Xu Siyu and Mr. Xiang's faces turned red. Xu Siyu, who had always been calm and composed, felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles. He murmured: "Rose her, she is pregnant."
Why didn't you send a message to your family? Eleven Niang hurriedly asked Qiu Yu to bring an imperial chair to Mrs. Xiang. If that was the case, why were you rushing back? She told Hu Bo to invite Dr. Liu in to take a pulse on Mrs. Xiang and send someone to go.
I told Xu Lingyi and asked Mr. Xiang how many months it has been, how peaceful the road has been and how well he has been pregnant.
It's been four months. Mrs. Xiang was a little shy, but mostly happy. She whispered to Eleven Niang's words, "My husband was afraid of the bumpy road, so he didn't set off until three months later. He didn't arrive home until this time."
If your body and bones are good, you will be stable along the way. If you are pregnant, your mother-in-law will not have to worry.
Seeing her rosy face, Eleven Niang didn't look like anything was wrong, so she asked Fang Xi to get some medicinal materials such as ginseng, bird's nest, and gastrodia to be sent to the Xiang family. She took away Wansan's wife and two wealthy women.
The experienced mother-in-law went to serve the Xiang family: If you need anything, just ask Wan San's wife. Brother Cheng was the one she watched growing up. She has experience. Don't be afraid to arrange for someone to report to the Xiang family and ask the Xiang family to return.
After resting well in the house, I accompanied Xu Siyu to pay his respects to the Dowager Madam.
While they were talking, Brother Jin stared at Mr. Xiang with his eyes. Seeing that they were going to the Madam, he wanted to follow them. On the way, he quietly asked Xu Siyu: "Second brother, am I going to be an uncle?"
Xu Siyu smiled and touched his head.
Brother Jin ran away in a hurry. He couldn't stop shouting. By the time Shi Yi Niang and Xu Siyu arrived at the Madam's place, the Madam had already known about it and was whispering to Brother Jin with a smile.
Why are you so ignorant? Madam Tai said, since she is pregnant, she should take good care of the fetus. She just ran back without telling her elders. Fortunately, your wife has a good body and can withstand the hardship. If there is such a thing,
I won’t let you go, you’re a bad guy. He added, since she’s back, your wife shouldn’t go back to Le’an. She should take good care of her at home.
Xu Siyu smiled sarcastically.
Mrs. Tai went to Xu Siyu's house to see Mr. Xiang.
After getting the news, the second lady rushed over and gave Xiang a Hetian Yu pendant that she had worn all year round: "This was given to me by the abbot of Wutai Mountain when I went to Wutai Mountain. It was said to have been consecrated. Wear it on your body for blessing."
You, mother and son, are safe.
Xiang accepted it shyly.
The fifth lady brought abalone, sea cucumber and other supplements to see Xiang.
Hu Bo wrote back again: Mr. Hou said that he understood. Let the second young lady have a good life.
Everyone was very happy, and the whole family had a meal at the dowager's place happily.
In the afternoon, Mrs. Xiang rushed over.
When her daughter became pregnant, the heavy burden on Mrs. Xiang's heart fell to the ground. Mother and daughter reunited, and naturally they had a great understanding.
At this time, the person who went to send wedding invitations to Cangzhou came back and said: My aunt nǎǎi knew that the fourth young master had set a wedding date, and she was very happy. The eldest uncle said that in a few days, my aunt nǎǎi and her two young cousins would come to Yanjing to congratulate the fourth young master.
.
They have not seen each other since Sister Zhen's son got married five years ago. This is really a blessing.
Let their mothers live in the inner courtyard. The wife was very happy and gave orders to the eleven mothers.
Let me clean up Li Jingxuan. Eleven Niang said with a smile, let her live in the previous place.
The madam nodded and frowned again: Why can't one or two of them make people worry? The child is still so young, how can he bear the fatigue of traveling and riding?
After Sister Zhen gave birth to her eldest son, Shao Anjing, she gave birth to her second son, Shao Anxu, at the end of last year. One is four years old and the other is only ten months old.
After Mrs. Tai complained, she said to Eleven Niang: I have never seen my two great-grandchildren. My eldest brother-in-law is so good-looking, and our sister Zhen’s son is also beautiful. The two children should also look like pink makeup.
There is a hint of longing in it.
Everyone laughed.
Mrs. Tai took Eleven Niang to visit Lijingxuan to see if there was anything else that needed to be purchased.
Xu Lingyi had just seen off Mr. Liang Ge outside, and the third son of the emperor, King Yong, came, sent congratulations to Xu Sizhen, and came in to say hello to Mrs. Tai.
Mrs. Tai and others hurried back, put on great makeup, and met King Yong.
The Shandong general soldiers who came to congratulate Xu Sichen had to wait in the outer academy accompanied by Manager Zhao, and happened to meet Mr. Dou Ge.
The Xu family is now busy with traffic.
When Wu Niang came over from Wendeng with Brother Xin and Sister Tian, Sister Zhen happened to return home. Eleven Niang only had time to say a few words to her. Mrs. Luo hosted a banquet in honor of Wu Niang and the children.
No time passed, so Amber sent an eight-color gift box to Gongxian Hutong.
Sister Zhen's two children both look like Shao Zhongran and are handsome. Not to mention the wife, Xu Lingyi saw them and liked them very much. Xu Siyu and Xu Sizhen Xu Sijie likes to tease the lively and lovely Brother Xu, Brother Jin
Brother Shen'er and Brother Shen led Brother Jing around, frightened Shi Yi Niang and repeatedly told the people serving around them: Watch out carefully. You can't go to places with water, and you can't go to Lingqiong Villa to pick food.
If Brother Jing bumps into the fruit somewhere, I will lose my temper.
With such a large group of people watching, and in our back garden, nothing will happen. Sister Zhen held Eleven Niang’s arm and laughed, asking about Brother Jin’s martial arts skills. Every time my husband asked Master Pang,
Master Pang only said that he studied well. But what happened?
She has already begun to teach some simple boxing and kicking skills. Eleven Niang said with a smile, although I don’t understand these, but judging from your father’s appearance, I am very satisfied with the progress.
Then I feel relieved. Sister Zhen smiled and said, I also thought at that time that my father must have found someone early. But my husband said that we should do our best. After thinking about it, I recommended Master Pang.
During the days when she returned to her parents' home, Shao Zhongran was dragged by Xu Lingyi to accompany the guests, and the two children were taken by the wife and several brothers. She couldn't play with them at all, so she had some time. After visiting Aunt Wen several times, she followed her.
At Eleven Niang's side, she either helps Eleven Niang to entertain guests, or chats with Eleven Niang.
Eleven Niang was thinking about the children, and from time to time asked the maid to go and see what they were doing.
Mother is still the same as before, always likes to worry about this and that. Sister Zhen couldn't help but sigh, suddenly thinking of what happened when she was a child, her eyes turned red, and tears fell down without warning.
Only after becoming a mother can I understand the difficulties of motherhood even more.
Sister Zhen could only feel panicked in her heart. She also thought that this was her fourth brother's happy day. If she said so, wouldn't she make her mother sad too? She hurriedly wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, thinking even more of her mother's love for her.
Well, when I think about my life in Cangzhou these years, I feel that I have a thousand words to say to my mother.
Mother, I will sleep with you tonight, okay? She held Eleven Niang’s arm tightly, her eyes filled with tears again. I still remember when I was a child, I went to your room to take a nap and you made a pearl bracelet.
He gave me a red chrysanthemum on the temples and took me to Sister Hui’s house for a visit. We and Sister Fang, no, it was the Crown Princess, and we secretly wore your little coat. Once the conversation opened, I was shocked to realize that we had been there.
So many things have happened, and each one of them has made her life farther away from its original track and closer to her current life.
Sister Zhen has lost her youthfulness, and has become a woman with firm eyes and a hint of gentleness. She is still acting coquettishly in front of her like a little girl, and the corners of Eleven Niang's eyes are also shining.
Okay, I'm back this time. I don't know when we can meet next time. She didn't want the atmosphere to be so sad, so she smiled and joked, as long as you are willing to leave your eldest uncle, Brother Jing and Brother Xu alone.
Just one night. Sister Zhen said, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and there was a determination in her eyebrows that only a happy woman can have. Besides, the children were also taken care of by the nun.
Eleven Niang pursed her lips and smiled.
Sister Zhen was a little embarrassed and refused: Now that I have returned to my parents' home, I naturally want to be my mother's daughter.
Okay, there aren't many opportunities to act coquettishly in front of mother, so let someone make Sister Zhen's bed.
Xu Lingyi's eyes widened: Then where should I sleep?
