On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times

Chapter 302 Newlywed 9
Xiao Xiao took the bracelet with both hands and smiled brightly at her: "My daughter-in-law thanks my mother for the reward."

She originally thought that her aunt would have objections to her?
Aunt Mo looked at her clear but bright eyes and her bright and lovely smile, and she understood why her son wanted to marry her.

This girl has a really nice smile, as if she only has herself in her eyes, which makes people feel comfortable and warm.

But at this moment, she is still more concerned about her son: "Are you leaving now? Can you come back to eat mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"Yes, I'm afraid I won't have time to come back during the Mid-Autumn Festival. I'll wait for my son to come back before eating the cakes made by my aunt."

Xiao Xiao was listening to the conversation between mother and son, and noticed that everyone behind him was calling "aunt".

It should become a habit.

Then she doesn't have to worry about it anymore, just call her aunt.

She seemed to be sitting upright, listening to their conversation, but she looked at the living room out of the corner of her eye.

My aunt couldn't wear bright red material, so she wore a light autumn fragrant yellow dress embroidered with wishful patterns.

It didn't say that bright red tables, chairs and curtains couldn't be used in the residence, but Aunt Mo was obviously a very cautious person, so there was no red at all in the living room.

The light blue curtains, huanghuali tables and chairs, off-white cushions and pillows, and white porcelain teapots and cups all look simple and elegant.

Just like her, even though she is middle-aged, she seems to have gentleness engraved in her bones, making people feel comfortable just looking at her.

Two other delicate-looking maids stood nearby.

The rough lady and the little maids all wear uniform blue armor, and the steward lady and the eldest maid can naturally wear other colors, as well as clothes rewarded by the masters.

The one named Guixiang, wearing an off-white chrysanthemum patterned top and a silver-red skirt, met her eyes.

She seemed stunned for a moment, and then she knelt down and performed a silent blessing ceremony.

Another maid named Yulan was also neatly born. She was wearing a silver-red double-breasted top embroidered with Ruyi patterns. The top was knee-length and tied with a silver-red belt around her waist, which made her waist like a willow more graceful.

Xiao Xiao clicked his tongue in his heart, and even made some pretense. His eyes were still fixed on Li Yan, obviously he had ulterior motives.

She was not prepared to do anything or say anything to this kind of poacher.

Who made it legal to have three wives and four concubines now?

I don’t know whether Aunt Mo prepared that magnolia flower for her son, or she wanted to find a flower-folder herself?

On top of her, it can be said that she has two mothers-in-law.

In addition, there might be important figures such as the prince and the prince who want to win over him, and they will also give him one or two beauties.

If she wants to be jealous, she can't bear it.

Her request to Li Yan was that no matter who sent the beauty, he could not touch it without her consent.

When she consummates her marriage with him in the future and gives birth to children, she might grow tired of seeing each other.

At that time, she would arrange ten or eight beauties for him and let him die.

Anyway, the Wu Dynasty was very tolerant towards widows, so I could happily be a widow.

The mother and son talked for almost a cup of tea before Li Yan stood up and said goodbye: "Take care, aunt, I'm leaving first." Aunt Mo was afraid that she would cry, so she could only smile and nod at him: "Okay!"

Yulan finally had a chance to speak, and her voice became much softer: "Sir, this package contains the undergarments, shoes and socks that my aunt led the slaves to make for you."

It was for the sake of the young master that she took the trouble to learn female beauty. When she thought of making clothes, shoes and socks for the young master, she didn't feel hard at all.

Unfortunately, Li Yan didn't understand her little thoughts. Instead, he looked at his mother and said, "What a coincidence, Xiao Xiao also prepared five large packages for me, including food and clothing."

"Mom, don't just make me clothes from now on, it's too much trouble for your eyes."

Xiao Xiao suspected that he was seeking hatred for herself.

Even if he felt sorry for his mother, a woman like Aunt Mo who was trapped in the back house could only pass the time by making clothes for her son and rely on her motherly heart.

Now he tells Aunt Mo not to do this. What if Aunt Mo thinks wrong and feels that the son she gave birth to has married a daughter-in-law and has forgotten her mother? If she feels unbalanced and comes to trouble him, what should she do?
So she said with a smile: "Husband, the thread in the hands of a loving mother, the clothes on the wanderer's body, and the clothes made by my aunt are not only needlework, but also care and longing."

Then he sighed softly: "My husband knows that I am clumsy and Nvhong is slow at sewing. If my aunt doesn't help, I'm afraid I will have to do needlework day and night."

It was impossible to get her to sew.

What bothered her the most was that the two women and two maids who followed her into the general's mansion were all ignorant of female celebrities.

But no one wants to sell themselves to a good embroiderer.

But if he doesn't sign the deed of betrayal, he can't bring him into the general's mansion.

She hoped that there would be a skilled maid in the yard. Otherwise, when she went out, she could go to the embroidery room and let the embroiderer do it.

But at this moment, Aunt Mo didn't believe what Xiao Xiao was telling the truth, and thought it was Xiao Xiao's humble words.

Moreover, what Xiao Xiao said before was very pleasant, and it almost spoke her inner thoughts, so Aunt Mo also whispered to her: "If you have nothing to do, please ask me to come over and do needlework together."

"The eldest son often walks, and his shoes are made of deerskin so as not to abrade his feet..."

Xiao Xiao refused to listen to this from the bottom of her heart.

She had no intention of making shoes for him, and it was impossible to do needlework with her, otherwise she was afraid that she would give up and want to teach herself how to do needlework.

Fortunately, Li Yan was in a hurry to leave, picked up the package prepared by his mother and left.

Aunt Mo could only send him to the door of the inner courtyard and then stop. Xiao Xiao could send him to the front yard. After seeing a dozen of them leaving on horseback, she took the opportunity to look around and asked curiously: "Mother Zhou , which one lives diagonally opposite?”

When Li Yan left home, Mrs. Li would definitely not come to see her off, and would only ask her mother Zhou to come and see her off.

In fact, Zhou’s mother also refused from the bottom of her heart.

In the past, she wished she could exclude Mother Liang, who was accompanying the dowry in the madam's room, so that she could only be used in important roles.

But now, she realized that she had really become the most useful person around Madam, which meant that she had to spend more time dealing with the eldest young master and the eldest mistress.

She felt that this day was really unbearable, because when she saw them, she felt panicked and short of breath, and she was afraid that they would make some fatal remarks.

Now she is starting to think about whether she should avoid being sick for a while.
Before she could figure out what illness to pretend to be, she heard the eldest mistress asking her again.

No, the eldest young master has just left and is expected to go to the battlefield soon. Not only is the eldest mistress not worried, but she is also curious about who lives next door?
But she still had to say: "The prince is also assisted by civil and military officials. The people who live here are the prince's confidants and are the people he needs. In the mansion on the left, Sima lives, and in the mansion on the right, Chang Shi lives."
