Compared with Qixi, Pinlan is older after all, and she used to serve in Ninghetang, so she knows more about many things than Qixi.
Grandma Wang usually works on the stove, and due to her age, Qiao Yuyan doesn't want her to work too hard and doesn't allow her to get up early, so only Qixi and Pinlan are the ones who come in and out every morning to serve.
Pinlan had some doubts before. Every time she entered the house, the house was always clean. Even if her wife was too embarrassed to clean it up herself, there was no way there would be no traces at all!
However, this involved the master's private matters. Even if their master and servant were close to each other, it was not easy to ask too much about it, so this was just a doubt in her heart.
It wasn't until she entered the house this morning that she realized that it wasn't that she was overthinking it, or that the husband and wife had seriously consummated their marriage today.
When Qiao Yuyan woke up and saw Pinlan's red cheeks, she understood the key. She immediately told her not to reveal the matter, otherwise Grandma Wang would be worried again. If the news spread back to Qiao's house, it might
The old lady and Mrs. Xu are about to ask questions.
Pinlan pursed her lips and smiled, "Madam, you don't take this servant seriously. Could it be that I have been serving you for so long and you don't even understand this rule?"
Qiao Yuyan smiled and apologized to her, saying that she was just a villain.
Because of the ridiculous night last night, I missed going to Yi'anju to pay my respects.
I've been reporting illness every three days, but I've been showing up every day with a rosy complexion and high energy. Who doesn't know what's going on?
Therefore, when Qiao Yuyan arrived at Yi'anju, she felt that Mrs. Wen's eyes on her were somewhat playful.
However, after experiencing the previous incident, this old lady has a much kinder and more tolerant attitude towards the younger generations in the house, and generally does not interfere with the affairs below.
Even when Mrs. Wen and Wen Qiong had huge differences over Wen Liang's marriage, she didn't speak up. She only waited until the couple reached a basic consensus before talking about Wen Liang's continued marriage with a smile.
"You came just in time. Your sister-in-law has a weak body and has not been able to get up for the past two days. She asked someone to check the date in the past two days and she said that the day after tomorrow will be good. We have to send someone to accept the gift. I said last night
I have discussed it with your elder brother and asked you to go with Mr. Chen, are you able to walk?"
Old Mrs. Wen did not send her directly, but used a consultative tone.
After all, she knew the previous grudge between Wen Liang and Qiao Yuyan.
Letting Qiao Yuyan go now is probably because he hopes that she can turn things around from the past.
Qiao Yuyan said nothing. Although she was responsible for the marriage between Wen Liang and Yuan Xueqing, she did not want to have more contact with Yuan Xueqing. She really did not have a good impression of this woman.
Even if Yuan Xueqing came in in the future, she would still be a member of the second house. Their sixth house had little room to rely on the public house. In the future, they would have trouble in the inner courtyard of their eldest house. Her original intention was to watch the excitement from the sidelines.
Old Mrs. Wen sighed and said, "I also know that Brother Liang has done a lot of things that I'm sorry for you in the past. Speaking of which, it's also the eldest brother who owes you.
But you can’t write two words of warmth in one stroke. Your husband has also entered the court. They and their brothers must support each other to go far. Don’t you understand this truth? Only when the family is harmonious can everything be prosperous! "
As she spoke, she sighed again, "Of course, this is also my selfish intention. As this person is older, he always hopes that the children at home can live in harmony. But this is my personal opinion after all. If you
I can understand if you don’t want to.”
Facing Mrs. Wen's expectant eyes, Qiao Yuyan found that she couldn't say no.
In the past, she didn't like Mrs. Wen in her heart. She thought she was strong, snobbish and impersonal.
But ever since she learned about her past, she could not help but feel some sympathy in her heart. This was a woman who had been very strong all her life, but she only relied on the breath in her chest to support her step by step.
After that incident, Qiao Yuyan changed her mind again. Only by experiencing certain things personally can you know that some persistence is destined to bring other sacrifices.
She completely changed her mind, from the initial rejection to admiration.
After Mrs. Wen learned the truth about Wen Tingyuan's illegitimate child, Qiao Yuyan saw the gentleness of a woman in her.
Old Mrs. Wen seems to have completely reconciled with the past. Qiao Yuyan doesn't know what her mental journey was during this period, but the current Old Mrs. Wen is not much different from her own grandmother. What she hopes for is the sentence "home".
"Everything will be prosperous".
Sighing in her heart, Qiao Yuyan comforted herself that the place where she and Wen Tingyuan lived was ultimately provided by others, and the Wen family did not impose any restrictions on them in their daily lives.
Just think of it as reciprocating love!
"It is my good fortune that the old lady can think of me for such a happy event as the recruitment. After all, I am also Liang Ge'er's aunt. Since you don't dislike me for being young and ignorant, is there any reason to postpone it?"
As if the silence just now did not exist, Qiao Yuyan opened her mouth with a smile and said: "It's just the ugly words ahead. If I mess up tomorrow and make our future fourth grandma unhappy, then I won't take responsibility."
Yes, I must blame the old lady for your inability to choose people."
Old Mrs. Wen was overjoyed that she could agree to this, and said with a smile: "That's no good, you have already taken over the porcelain job, and you still haven't used your diamond skills?!"
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked about the serious topic with laughter, which made the atmosphere in the room much more relaxed.
Old Mrs. Wen asked someone to bring the betrothal gift list to show Qiao Yuyan.
She shouldn't have asked about this kind of thing. The amount of the betrothal gift was a matter between the public and had nothing to do with her. If she asked about it, she would end up telling the truth.
Just looking at it made me a little surprised.
Wen Liang is now married for the second time, and the Wen family actually paid him a bride price of nearly ten thousand taels.
Seeing her expression, the old lady knew what she was thinking, so she explained, "Although it is a continuation of the marriage, the first one is Princess Shang, and there is no betrothal gift from the palace, so the marriage is still based on the first marriage."
Qiao Yuyan folded the list and handed it back with a smile, "You still explained it to me. Is it possible that you are afraid that I will be hungry and full, so you want to take out a few gold coins in it?"
Mother Xin on the side smiled and said: "That's absolutely impossible. If you say it or not, I'm afraid the sixth wife won't even look down on our brother Liang's small dowry."
"Don't spread rumors!" Qiao Yuyan immediately smiled and said, "I'm so greedy. Otherwise, old lady, can you give me some as well?"
Amidst the excitement, the matter was finalized.
Qiao Yuyan had spent too much last night. The old lady could see that she was sleepy, so she asked her to go back first. If she was really uncomfortable, don't come over to say hello tomorrow.
It actually made Qiao Yuyan blush.
Unexpectedly, when I came out, I met Wen Liang who came to the old lady's place.
