On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times

Chapter 301 Newlywed 8
Previously, after Guixiang accompanied Aunt Mo to the bedroom, on the way back, Aunt Mo arranged to inquire about the goings-on in Sangyu Courtyard.

Guixiang happened to hear what Yulan said when she walked in. She couldn't help but glance at her, and then saluted Aunt Mo: "Auntie, the eldest young master and the eldest young mistress have already gone to the upper chamber, and they happened to miss us."

Aunt Mo nodded: "I must go to the room to say hello first and then come back. You go and take out the luggage we packed."

Last night, after Li Yan came back from the front yard, he specifically told her that he would be leaving tomorrow, and that he would bring the bride over to greet her in the morning.

Although Aunt Mo felt sorry for her son to go out and fight for his life, she also knew that if her son did not learn martial arts but studied literature like the second young master, he would become a thorn in the madam's side.

Unless the son does nothing and becomes a playboy who only knows how to look for flowers and flowers.

She actually thought this was good, but it was a pity that when her son was young, the old lady had planned it for him.

The two maids responded and went in to take out the two packages.

They all knew that the eldest young master did not want to bring too many things with him when he went out, but he was very particular about his shoes, socks and middle coat, so all he prepared was four pairs of shoes, socks and two middle coats.

Aunt Mo looked at them again before letting them tie them up: "In more than a month, it will get cold. If you have time, make some pairs of boots and line them with leather felt. This will keep you warm."

"Go and look in the box again and find fox or mink fur to make him a fur coat. It's light and warm. If it's made of other materials, I'm afraid he'll find it too bulky and won't want to wear it."

Yu Lan responded immediately, and looked at her face and whispered: "It's just that now that the eldest young master has married the eldest mistress, I am afraid that the eldest mistress has prepared these clothes, shoes and socks. We have made these, and we don't know what the eldest mistress will do." Aren’t you unhappy?”

When Aunt Mo heard this, the smile on her face disappeared and she lowered her head to drink tea.

Guixiang hurriedly stretched out her hand to pull her, and then said with a smile: "With the eldest mistress taking care of the eldest son, my aunt can feel more at ease."

"When the time comes, the eldest mistress will prepare inner clothes and outer robes, and we will prepare shoes and socks. We will also have time to make some new clothes for my aunt."

Aunt Mo put the tea cup aside and said calmly: "Guixiang is right. I will look through the box later and give you a piece of cloth to make two thin cotton-padded jackets."

The clothes of the maids and women are also distributed according to the season.

But the materials used to make clothes for them cannot be too good. In spring, summer and autumn, they are worried that the clothes will be washed out, and in winter, they are worried that the clothes will not be warm enough after being washed.

If they wanted to buy it themselves, they would have to ask someone to buy the fabric. They would be reluctant to spend money and have to ask for favors.

Like Guixiang and the others, it's okay that they are big maids, as their masters often give them rewards.

Of course, if they are poorly dressed, it will make their master lose face.

At this moment, the little maid outside ran in with a happy face: "Auntie, the eldest young master and the eldest young mistress are here."

"Please come in quickly." After Aunt Mo said, she also went out with the maids.

It wasn't that she was in a hurry to see her son and daughter-in-law.

But she was just an aunt, and according to the rules, she should have been welcomed out, and she had to give a half-ceremony.

Because the aunt is half master and half slave, and even if Li Yan is the eldest son and Xiao Xiao is the eldest daughter-in-law, for the maids and wives, they are still serious masters.

When Xiao Xiao invited the female teacher, he also specifically asked for advice on how to greet her husband's biological mother when she saw him.

So now I stepped into Osmanthus Garden and saw Aunt Mo preparing to salute. I quickly stepped forward to support her and said, "This is not outside. Aunt Mo is an elder. How dare I accept the gift."

This is to make it clear to her that this is Osmanthus Garden where you live, and I treat you as my mother-in-law, so I will not accept your courtesy.

But if you were my aunt outside, I would have to accept half of your courtesy.

In front of Mrs. Li, she could be mistaken for being unruly and out of touch with worldly affairs.

But in front of Li Yan's biological mother, she had to let her know that she was not an illiterate country girl who didn't know the rules. She and Aunt Mo were strangers to each other, but they became a family because of Li Yan.

They would spend a lot of time together in the future, and she hoped that the two of them could get along well so as not to make other people laugh.

Li Yan was also very satisfied with Xiao Xiao's words and deeds. He held his mother's other hand and said, "Xiao Xiao is right. There are no outsiders here. My aunt must not be too polite."

Aunt Mo no longer insisted and was helped into the living room by the couple.

Li Yan helped her sit on the table and said to the maid, "Why don't you go get the futon?"

Of course this is not because he is chauvinistic and thinks Xiao Xiao is easy to handle, but because he asked her before coming here.

Xiao Xiao will not look down on her aunt, nor will she feel that kneeling to her is a loss of status, nor will she feel that it is a humiliation to herself.

Of course, she wouldn't agree too easily, lest he think she's easy to talk to and would have to push further in the future.

Instead, she stared at him and said seriously: "I like my husband very much. My aunt gave birth to you. For you, I am willing to respect her and salute her."

When Li Yan heard her say that he liked her, a blush spread quickly from the base of his ears, and finally he turned into a big blush as if he was drunk.

At that time, Xiao Xiao saw that he was blushing so much that she couldn't help but wickedly grabbed his face and kissed him several times.

Give it a kiss and say you like it.

Of course, in the end, he almost broke his waist.

And the ointment given by my elder brother-in-law to reduce swelling is almost gone.

Now Xiao Xiao also knelt down and kowtowed after him. After taking the tea from the maid and handing it to Aunt Mo, she said in a clear voice: "Daughter-in-law, Mrs. Xiao, please give my regards to my mother."

"Okay, okay!" Aunt Mo felt her eyes were a little dry.

It would be difficult for Miss Li Er to come in and call her aunt, let alone bow to her.

She still remembered that last spring, Miss Li Er came to stay at the General's Mansion for a few days, and she happened to hear Miss Li Er say: "My aunt, the whole room is full of obscene and shameless things, they are not worthy of publicity, they are just toys. "

After saying that, when he saw her, he turned around and left as if he hadn't seen her.

She completely forgot that she herself was born from her aunt.

Aunt Mo's face turned pale with anger.

At that time, I made up my mind that if she really came in, I would find a way to deal with her and not let her occupy the position of the eldest mistress.

Now seeing Xiao Xiao saluting me, I felt happy and sour at the same time. After taking the tea and taking a few sips, I took off a bracelet from my wrist and handed it to her: "This bracelet was given to me by the old lady. Yes, it’s said to be able to support people.”

What she didn't say was that the warm jade bracelet was the old lady's dowry and had been worshiped in front of the Buddha for many years, saying it could nourish people and benefit children.

When the old lady rewarded her, she hoped that she would be able to help the general.

She originally prepared a gold hairpin, but for some reason, she gave her the warm jade bracelet that she cherished.

When Xiao Xiao touched this mutton-fat jade bracelet, he noticed that it felt warm to the touch and looked particularly oily, as if oil was flowing out.

This should be the best among jade, and it is not difficult to see that Aunt Mo herself likes it very much.

This also shows that she doesn't hate herself.
