Chapter 194

After hearing what his daughter said, Jiang asked, "The Jia family will come to our house for dinner the day after tomorrow?"

"Auntie loves to eat dumplings. I said I was afraid that the bread outside would be unclean. We will eat at our house the day after tomorrow. Eating dumplings doesn't cost much, it's just troublesome. But now that there are so many people in the kitchen, wrapping is quick."

"aunt?"

Gao Cui clapped her hands and said, "I'll tell you Niang Juan, Mrs. Jia and I hit it off too much. Mrs. Jia said she asked me to call her Aunt to make her look close. That's why I called her Aunt. From now on, my younger siblings will also call her Uncle." Mother is fine."

Mrs. Jiang was puzzled, originally Mr. Jia was called father-in-law and brother-in-law, this seniority is wrong.

"Shouldn't it be called Guzu?"

Gao Zhao followed his mother's words and said, "It was Mrs. Jia who said that. My aunt agreed before I had time to remind her. I also think this generation is wrong."

Gao Cui finally realized, "Oh, yes, but according to Xunsheng's calculation, he is your father's apprentice, so it's right to call me eldest aunt, of course I will call him grandmother and aunt."

"Did he call you aunt?" Gao Zhao asked curiously.

"I called, I called at the dinner table, didn't you hear? I must have whispered to Mrs. Jia, but it's wrong again. If Xunsheng is your senior brother according to Xunsheng, then you shouldn't be called sister Jia, oh, It's messed up."

Gao Zhao said: "Everyone is called by their own name, and they are not relatives anyway, besides, the Jia family will return to Beijing sooner or later, and they won't stay for long."

"What? You said you were leaving today?" Jiang asked.

"I didn't say that, Jia's family is in Beijing, and they will definitely leave. I don't know if it will be half a year or a year later. I didn't ask. It seems like I don't want them to stay here, and it's none of my business."

"That's right, it's good to have Mrs. Jia and Zhao'er together. Yulan has been busy embroidering dowry recently, Xiuhua and Shanhu are both, and Mrs. Jia often comes to be lively."

Gao Cui found out. Ever since he got to know Jia's family, the food in the family has skyrocketed. Mr. Jia paid for the food, even though Mrs. Jia came to eat, she often asked her maid to bring meat and vegetables. Staying in the county for a year happens to be the time when the nephews and nieces in the family are growing up, so let's make up for it.

"I'm not greedy for the money and meat and vegetables from Jia's family. Mrs. Jia and Zhao'er get along well. It's rare to have a little sister in the boudoir. The little ladies who are about the same age in the sixth department of the yamen are face to face. Flattery, but those eyes are unpleasant, you see, Zhao'er herself doesn't want to play with them, all these years there is only one Yulan, Zhao'er is like a sister, Yulan has an open heart, she doesn't say anything to Zhao'er, now Jia The lady is just like Yulan, you can tell by looking at her eyes, although she has a high family, she doesn't put on airs or look down on others."

Mrs. Jiang nodded and said: "That's right, eldest sister is right. The third lady of the Wang family used to come to our house all the time. I also said that it would be nice to play with Zhao'er, but Zhao'er didn't like it, so she always found excuses to hide. Auntie also said that the third lady is not good, but she is the one who said Zhaoer behind her back, fortunately Zhaoer has good eyesight and never talked to her too much, otherwise she would offend people by turning things around."

"She didn't say much about that. She said that Zhao'er said bad things about Yulan behind her back. I was so angry that I went to the door to confront her. Didn't her mother bring her to make an apology?"

Thinking of this, Jiang asked: "By the way, the third lady is one year older than Zhao'er, are you engaged?"

Gao Cui immediately put on a gossiping expression, but looked at her niece, and said, "Zhaoer is sleepy, go back to the room and take a nap, just in time to coax Qiaoyun to sleep."

Qiaoyun had already started to doze off, and while listening persistently, Gao Zhao took his younger sister off the kang and went back to the East Wing to sleep together. The eldest aunt must be going to gossip about things that are not suitable for children.

When the niece left, Gao Cui said in a low voice: "I forgot to mention this. Not long ago, Mrs. Wang San and her cousin secretly communicated and exchanged tokens of love. Her mother was so angry that she was about to die. Originally, her mother The one in the middle belongs to her elder brother's family, and she told her elder sister-in-law, but her daughter's favorite is her second brother's. Now her mother has offended her two elder brothers, and her second sister-in-law does not want to cause trouble, and does not agree with her son marrying Mrs. Wang San , Let me say, why don't you want to cause conflicts in the family, you must not have taken a fancy to it, which mother-in-law would like a daughter-in-law to make love with her son privately? Or under the condition that she has already promised her marriage. "

"How do outsiders know about this?"

"It's not Mrs. Wang herself, she deserves it! She is a gossip, but she is the one she is dating. She is a young lady from the yamen servant's family. She usually flatters her. When this happened, Mrs. Wang told the yamen servant. , I guess it was to complain, and he turned around and said it out. The angry wife of Mrs. Wang San didn't agree with her daughter marrying back to her mother's family. The Wang family went back to her mother's house and forced her second elder brother and second sister-in-law to marry each other."

Jiang shakes her head, so she pays close attention to her daughter. She has a relationship with Yulan of the Qian family. The Qian family does not have a son of the right age, so there will be no such problems. In her natal family, she fell in love with her nephew at the time, but her daughter did not. Her mother's family style does not have the permission of the elders, and she will not make a private decision. Her father said a long time ago that if she dares to do this, don't expect her family to agree.

"Our Zhao'er family is good. He is a righteous person, and he will not do anything that would embarrass his parents."

……

Mrs. Jia came back to Jia's mansion, she was tired, she went back to lie down to rest, she didn't feel much when she was old, so she dismissed the younger generation, and then she talked to Zhenmama.

"Axiu, you've also met Mrs. Gao's a few times, what do you think?"

"How can a servant achieve the vision of the master? The servant obeys the master."

Mrs. Jia smiled, "You, it's still an old problem. This means that the candidate is not bad. Even a little problem is not a problem for Xunsheng. It's not because of Xunsheng's fate. I guess no one can see it, including me. , I came to the palace at the age of ten, and I haven’t suffered any crimes since I was 16 years old. I can count the people in Beijing. Even the first-rank imperial order has to salute when I see it. Who can say that this is not fate? Even my parents can’t think of it. I thought it would be lucky to see me alive, but who would have thought that there would be a granddaughter who would be a princess or a grandson who would be a prince?"

Nanny Zhen tapped Mrs. Jia's leg lightly, and said: "The servant girl is also lucky, to be able to follow the master, although she is a slave, but among the slaves, the servant girl is also the first class."

"That's because of your loyalty. Alas, those who can live to old age in the palace, whether they are masters or slaves, have no idea in their hearts. They have already been eaten by others. I have taken advantage of my seniority, otherwise I am a concubine promoted by a palace maid." , isn't it a slave in the eyes of the royal family?"

"Master, please don't say that. Who dares not to think highly of you now?"

Old Concubine Jia shook her head and said, "It's not because I think highly of me, but because of Emperor Chengzong's honor. How could Pingwu grow up like this? The eldest princess born to the empress will be 35 this year, and she must be respectful when she sees Pingwu. Why? It's not because Pingwu is her royal aunt."
