The charming girl of the farm gate of crossing

Chapter 1908 Haven't opened it yet
The old lady smiled faintly, and she did not hide the disdain and contempt in her eyes, "The money that our family invests in the clan every year is not for asking them to manage our housework."

Don't look at the old lady's rambunctious hospitality to her family members, it's just for her own face, and it's also to show her sense of superiority.

She just let the poor people in the clan see that even though they are all surnamed He, the gap between them can be described as heaven and earth.

So, no matter what generation or status you are, when you come to her, just wait for her obediently.

Nanny Ji has followed her for decades, and she knows her temper very clearly, so she didn't dare to act too much at the moment, and said softly, "It's not that they are stretching their hands too long, but the eldest lady is not here. , there is another fourth young lady, it must be necessary to gossip..."

She wanted to persuade the old lady to hide He Xin'er, and then zoom in on the lady to come back and stay for three to five days, first to get over the situation on the scene, and then find an opportunity to explain it to the people in the clan.

After all, the old lady cares about face and is particular about it. If she is chased and questioned by unsightly people at the birthday banquet, she will always have a bad face.

And the eldest lady came back, no matter how many days she stayed, she could tell He Laner about it.

It's just that before she finished speaking, the thick satin curtain was pulled open, and she had no choice but to shut up.

The eldest maid, Shao Yao, came in with an exquisite brocade box in both hands, and said with a smile, "The old woman on the second door said that someone brought a congratulatory gift to the old lady."

Mother Ji was surprised, "So early?"

It's not early, not to mention that there are still four days before the old lady's birthday, but it is also early, the sky is not yet bright, and no one from each house has arrived.

Who would give someone a gift so early?
The old lady was also slightly puzzled, "Which family does the visitor belong to?"

"Go back to the old lady, that person said straight away that the old lady understands things when she sees them."

Nanny Ji reached out to take the brocade box, and said with a smile, "Maybe it's some young cousins ​​who rushed here early to surprise the old lady."

The old lady Zhou's natal family is in Fucheng.

Ordinarily, the Zhou family would not get too close to an old aunt who was born as a concubine. It was only because she had always had a close relationship with the old lady of the Yongchang uncle's mansion that the Zhou family did not break this relationship.

And the young master Biao that Nanny Ji mentioned is the grandson of the old lady's elder brother's family, the concubine of the Zhou family, and the direct branch of the family doesn't like to talk to her very much. The meaning of having a New Year's ceremony is also in the Yongchang uncle's mansion. For the sake of the old lady.

Hearing this, the old lady showed a kind smile on her face, "Those skin monkeys can really do it."

The purpose of currying favor with the first sister is for the sake of profit. If you want to talk about real intimacy, it is naturally an elder brother born by an aunt, and that is her real natal family.

Nephews and nephews are also the closest.

Of course they are close, Zhou Zhenliang, the concubine who was separated from the family early by the Zhou family, can rely on the old lady to help him to support his family.

Therefore, the descendants of the Zhou family will flatter and curry favor with the old lady.

On the old lady's birthday, several nephews and grandchildren all came to her to behave well, and none of them would be left behind.

It's just a few nice words, and you can get a lot of benefits, and fools don't come.

In the past few days, the old lady is looking forward to her nephews and grandsons. She looks at each of them as rare, and she likes to listen to them when they talk. She is more caring than her own grandson, so she is always rare enough.

Or say that Nanny Ji is the person who knows the old lady best, and she can make the old lady happy with one sentence, even if the gift is not from the Zhou family, it doesn't matter, it's just a joke, and the old lady won't follow She cares not.

Seeing that the old lady was really happy, Aunt Ji became even more amused, "This brocade box is quite heavy, and I don't know what good things it contains."

The old lady said angrily, "Don't pretend to be like me, you old man haven't seen anything good before."

"Master Biao's filial piety to the old lady is naturally not an ordinary thing."

"Have you opened it yet?"

"Hey, the old slave also opened his eyes."
