Chapter 196

Ding didn't realize it, her mind was filled with joy.

Nanny Kong and the eldest maid Chunxiu, who were standing aside, felt goosebumps all over their bodies when they heard this.

Hey, why haven't I seen this cousin girl for a few years, and why does her voice sound like a foxy girl?
Mrs. Ding was so happy that she grabbed the little hand of a aunt and niece with one hand, and said cheerfully: "Come on, quickly enter the house, and my aunt will bring you a meeting gift."

"I didn't expect to see them for a few years, and they have grown into big girls." Ding turned to Xiao Ding and said.

"Yes, how time flies!" Xiao Ding also said with emotion, and then casually asked: "Eldest sister, are you going out?"

It was only then that Ding remembered that she was going to visit her pregnant baby girl.

Thinking of her daughter, she couldn't help smiling and said, "Yes, I'm going to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see Bao'er. Now that Bao'er is pregnant, I will go and accompany her when I have nothing to do." Looking at the younger sister and three mothers, she said again: "I won't go today, Ah Tong, come in and talk."

"That aunt and niece haven't seen my cousin for several years, and I want to see her too." Lu Sufen raised her eyes to stare at Ding Shi and said, those small Danfeng eyes were full of expectation.

"This," Ding said hesitantly.

It would be fine if the family status of her husband's family Bao'er is not obvious, and she can come directly to the door without handing over the post.

It's just that the son-in-law's family is a prominent and powerful prime minister's house.

She rashly led someone to her home like this, what would her mother-in-law think of her, and what would her son-in-law think?
Seeing the elder sister's hesitation, Xiao Ding said: "Let's forget about today, I didn't bring a gift for Chan'er, so it's not reasonable to just go to the door like this, or, after two days, prepare the gift and then go to visit."

"Mother, Fen'er hasn't seen Miss Chan'er for several years, and I miss her very much." Lu Sufen pursed her lips and acted coquettishly.

Ding was in a dilemma for a while.

Seeing the mistress's embarrassment, Nanny Kong who was standing at the side interjected: "Madam, according to this old slave's opinion, it is better to send someone to the Prime Minister's Mansion to hand over the post as soon as possible. It only takes half an hour to go back and forth."

Ding thought about it too, and he would be able to reply to the news soon after riding a horse.

Mother Kong saw Ding Shi nod her head, and she was busy with a clever servant going to the prime minister's mansion with a greeting card in his hand. Here, Ding Shi also led people into the whole courtyard to drink tea first.

Xiao Ding was married to Lu Xiuyun, who was the fifth rank of General Dingyuan under General Ding. At the age of nearly thirty, Lu Xiuyun had seven or eight injuries and was no longer suitable for the frontier. After returning to Beijing, the emperor sent him to a remote place. Mengcheng became a Xuanfu envoy from the fourth rank.

After marriage, they have two daughters and one son. The son is just 11 years old, just the age to study hard.

Therefore, when he returned to Beijing this time, he was not brought here, and only brought his two daughters who were about to discuss marriage.

Due to lack of information, Ding seldom communicated with her, and even when she did, she did not mention her daughter's marriage, because Ding was very nervous at that time, fearing that her daughter would be wronged when she married. The so-called throwing themselves into the arms, their family's cold face and hot ass, the marriage they proposed is not a very glorious thing.

Straight to last autumn, Xuzhou was flooded.

Xiao Ding, who was far away in Mengcheng, knew about the future of her eldest sister's family. Her daughter married Wei Ziqian, Minister of Criminal Justice, and her son became the magistrate of Xuzhou.

She suddenly felt bad and panicked.

In Mengcheng, there are also many matchmakers who come to talk about marriage, there are also well-matched official families, and there are also wealthy businessmen from one side.

However, Xiao Ding kept her mouth shut about marriage. She wanted to marry her two daughters to a family in the capital, and she didn't want to marry her daughters into this corner.

In addition, the eldest daughter Lu Sufang often whispered in her ears: "Mother, my cousin can marry a Shangshu, so why can't I?"

In fact, Li Sufen still thought in her heart that her aunt and brother-in-law worked in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, so she must be a rough and brutal man.

She wants to come to the capital to marry a handsome white-faced gentleman with an official position comparable to that of her cousin's husband, so at least she can suppress her once.

Thinking back to when I was young at my grandfather's house, my teeth were itching with hatred. My grandfather and my aunt's family loved my aunt so much that I wished I could spoil her.

What are you talking about, my cousin is smart, well-behaved and pretty!
Humph……

Back then, Xiao Ding didn't dislike her man's low official position, the reason was of course that her brother-in-law's official position was almost the same as his.

The only difference is that he is a foreign official, not as grand as his brother-in-law's Beijing official.

But, who can tell?
Maybe after a few years, my man will come to Beijing to report on his work, and his official position will be higher than that of his brother-in-law!
Straight to last autumn, Xuzhou was flooded.

Xiao Ding, who was far away in Mengcheng, knew about the future of her eldest sister's family. Her daughter married Wei Ziqian, Minister of Criminal Justice, and her son became the magistrate of Xuzhou.

She suddenly felt bad and panicked.

Only then did I take care of my outfit, and hurried to Jingcheng after the Lantern Festival.

Unexpectedly, when he was about to arrive in the capital, the news of the emperor's death came, and after that, his ears were full of talk about the new emperor and his chief assistant, Prime Minister Wei...

My sister's family is well-developed, and my aunt and niece are also prestige.

No matter how much my own daughter wants to marry high, she can't match her, and it is impossible to surpass her.

Lu Sufen didn't expect that she thought she was a black-faced rough guy, but in people's discussion, she was actually a handsome and capable minister with a pen in her left hand and a sword in her right hand.

My heart instantly went astray... If this aunt and brother-in-law fell in love with me...

It's not impossible, my aunt is pregnant with Liujia now, if she can't serve him, she has a chance of winning.

Not to mention that Lu Sufen thought that if it wasn't true, Ding Buxiao, the family member sent by the Ding family to deliver the post to the prime minister's mansion, would turn back in half the time.

"Return to Madam, the post has been delivered." After the young servant Ding reported back to Mrs. Ding, he hurried away.

Mrs. Ding was muttering to herself, but Mrs. Ding couldn't wait to say: "Eldest sister, what are you waiting for? I haven't seen Chan'er for several years, I miss her so much!"

"That's right! Auntie, hurry up and take Fen'er to see my cousin." After Lu Sufen finished speaking, she threw down the delicious cakes brought by her subordinates, clapped her little hands, and raised the corners of her mouth.

Ding was urged by their mother and daughter, thinking about it, the two sisters haven't seen each other for four or five years, so they must miss her very much.

So, they took their mother and daughter out and got into the carriage and drove towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.

When they arrived at the gate of the prime minister's mansion, the guard at the gate saw that it was the young lady's mother, and the in-laws of the prime minister's mansion came to the door, and immediately opened the corner door to let them in.

Needless to say, the mother and daughter of the Xiao Ding family felt uneasy when they saw the high gate compound, the prominent gate courtyard, pavilions, stone waterside pavilions, and the winding corridor made of nanmu, as well as the many servants coming and going. Know how to be envious and jealous.

Besides, Xia Sichan was surprised when she received the post from her mother: "Huh? That's weird."

Wei Ziqian happened to go home today to accompany Xia Sichan for lunch, seeing his little wife's suspicious expression, he put her in his arms and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Xia Sichan calmed down and said softly.

 Sometimes people's self-confidence and jealousy are equally terrible.
