Daqi's folk customs are tough, and there are many folk women who choose their own husbands independently, and the government also encourages, approves, and grants recognition and registration.The orders of parents and the words of matchmakers are more important among the middle and upper classes.

Zhu Susu is a doctor, although he is no longer from a lowly background, but he is from an ordinary family in the market.Du Hengshuang herself was not a noble girl, so although Zhu Susu's words were shocking, they were not completely unacceptable.

Besides, Du Hengshuang thought that Zhu Susu was joking, covered his sleeves and said with a smile: "Susu, you are still young, and you have good medical skills, so you will be able to find a good marriage in the future. ——People look down on Susu, and Susu still looks down on others .Is it? We don't suffer."

Zhu Susu suddenly felt a sense of confidant towards Du Hengshuang.She has been here for so many years, she has bad luck, her parents are not good, and she can live a good life now with her own hands. In addition, the time-traveling articles she read before are deeply ingrained in her memory, and it turns out that As a time-traveling girl, she didn't take any advantage, and couldn't take any shortcuts. She couldn't help but feel unfair and full of resentment. She always thought that God owed her, and she really had psychological distortions and struggles.

She didn't hide it either, and said to Du Hengshuang: "Miss Du, women will marry after all. In a situation like mine, if you don't plan for yourself, no one will plan for me. So what I should fight for is still fighting. People, what happens depends on God. If I don’t fight, I will not be reconciled.”

"Call me Hengshuang." Du Hengshuang said with a smile, which meant to show closeness, "I believe Susu is a good person, don't cover yourself with bad people anymore."

Zhu Susu had worked hard to curry favor with many young ladies and wives from powerful families, so she could naturally see whether the smile on Du Hengshuang's face was sincere or hypocritical.I was filled with emotions for a while, and after a long time of stunned, I nodded my head heavily and said: "Hengshuang, what a good name."

"Susu is also a good name. Your parents must have high hopes for you. Miss Qing'e is a fairy-like figure."

Zhu Susu sighed greatly, and said to Du Hengshuang: "You don't need to compliment me like this, I, Zhu Susu, are really not a good person. But I still have some trust in my words. I said that I would stop thinking about Big Brother Xiao, and I would Absolutely not. ——To be honest, you can really rest assured that there is a mother-in-law like Aunt Xiao, not everyone can bear it. With such a mother, Brother Xiao's value will be reduced by at least half."

Du Hengshuang smiled lightly and remained silent.He watched Zhu Susu get out of the car and went back to her own car.

Zhihua laughed beside her and said, "Miss, this young lady is really interesting. It's just that she knows what she is thinking, and she just put it nicely."

Du Hengshuang sighed softly, "Knowing the painting. It's not easy for her. You forget that we were back then, and my father is gone. My mother alone supported the family, and I was almost kicked out of Du's house..."

Zhihua shut her mouth.That's right, none of them would forget those days. If Mr. Xu hadn't come forward later, they wouldn't know which broken kiln they lived in now.

How difficult it is to rely on a woman to support a family in this world.Can Zhihua not know?

Xiao Shiji came out from Xiao's house, and was about to go to Xu's house to ask Du Hengshuang to confess his mistake.He suddenly saw Du Hengshuang's carriage parked at the gate of his house.

"Shuang'er, why are you still here?" Xiao Shiji was surprised, several hours had passed, and she had been waiting outside the gate of Xiao's house.

Xiao Shiji looked back at Xiao's concierge with a livid face.

His fiancée was waiting outside Xiao's house, but no one went to the inner courtyard to report to him.What's the point of him, the head of the family, doing this?

"Wait for me." Xiao Shiji didn't allow Du Hengshuang to speak, turned around and walked back to the gate.

"Call me Xiao Yi." Xiao Yi is the chief steward of the Xiao family's outer courtyard. When Xiao Shiji was running outside, Xiao Yi was actually in charge of the major affairs of the Xiao family.He was Xiao Xiangsheng's subordinate back then, and he was loyal to the Xiao family, so Xiao Shiji also trusted him and handed over the family to him.

Xiao Yi supported the crest on his head, rushed over from the housekeeper's yard sweating profusely, and asked, "Eldest Young Master, what can I order?" Xiao Yi was born with Xiao Shiji's father Xiao Xiang, so he is still used to it. Called Xiao Shi and "Young Master".In fact, he should be called "Uncle" seriously.

Xiao Shiji's expression eased, "Uncle Yi, when did the man in this concierge enter the mansion? I think it's very incompetent, so let's get rid of it and replace it with a new one."

Xiao Shi and the elder should not worry about these things.Just like he wouldn't really ask which dental shop the maid who did rough work in the yard bought it from.

Xiao Yi immediately knew that something was wrong, he was an old man, turned his eyes slightly outside the gate, and saw the Xu family's carriage parked alone in a corner of the courtyard, under the poisonous sun of June day, directly throwing people away. To get oily.

And that carriage came here with Jing Zhaoyin and Xu Shao's wife Fang Wuniang in the morning.

Xiao Yi knew that this was the carriage Du Hengshuang was riding in.

With a thump in his heart, he immediately understood what Xiao Shiji meant.

The future mistress of the Xiao family waited under the sun for several hours.Just because of this, the concierge should be withdrawn.

A concierge doesn't even have the minimum of insight, even if he stays, it will be a disaster in the future.

Xiao Yi turned his head and ordered his men to go down and get the porter's roster.

Xiao Shiji looked through them one by one.

The Xiao family really has a lot of money, there are only four serious masters in the family, and there are twelve concierges. There are four people in each shift, and each shift lasts four hours.

There should be four porters on duty today, but Xiao Shiji only saw two of them.

At this time, the two men were trembling all over, kneeling at Xiao Shiji's feet and begging for mercy.

Xiao Yi looked at the two people, and introduced to Xiao Shiji: "This Long Ping is the son of the old lady's companion." Needless to say anything else.

Xiao Shiji closed the roster heavily, threw it into Xiao Yi's arms, raised his chin, and ordered: "Not to mention anything else, all the people in the concierge have been changed. The four people on duty today should be tied up first and locked up at the door. Go to the stable." Then he put down the blue Gebu summer robe on his body and went out, "I have something to do today, so I won't be back tonight. When I return to the mansion tomorrow, I want to see the whole mansion change."

Xiao Yi stood blankly on the steps of the Xiao family's gate, watching Xiao Shiji's back as he walked towards the Xu family's carriage.At some point, his figure was already taller and more stable than his father Xiao Xiangsheng.

Du Hengshuang was sitting in the carriage, wiping the thin beads of sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief from time to time.The half arm of the body was already drenched in sweat on the back, which was very uncomfortable.But she still sat there with her back straight, her appearance undisturbed.

Xiao Shiji got into the car with a complicated expression, and told the driver: "Go back to Jing Zhaoyin Mansion."

Du Hengshuang hurriedly said, "I'll leave after a few words, and brother Ji doesn't need to see me off."

Xiao Shiji reached out and patted her hand lightly.Yimu signaled her not to speak again.

Zhi Hua sitting next to him wished he could hang his head to the ground, and wished he could become invisible.

If she hadn't been Du Hengshuang's big maid, she would have sat outside the car if she couldn't go out and show her face.

Du Hengshuang no longer persisted, remained silent all the way, and returned to Jingzhaoyin Mansion with Xiao Shiji.

The Xiao family was overjoyed yesterday.Because Fang Wuniang went to Xiao's house to make a fuss today, everyone in the Xu family knew about it.

When Xiao Shiji and Du Hengshuang came in, they happened to see Xu Yanhui, the eldest son of the Xu family, coming out of the middle hall in the backyard.

"I haven't congratulated Mr. Xiao yet. The Xiao family has formed a good family. There is no remarried daughter in the family, and there is no criminal man in the family. Haha, the family tradition is so vast!" Xu Yanhui said congratulatory words.He opened his mouth and smiled, showing his white teeth.But there was no trace of a smile in his eyes, like a bloodthirsty beast temporarily holding back its sharp claws.

Xiao Shiji knew that what he was talking about was what his mother Long Xiangye said at Xiao's house today, saying that the Guan family's family style is upright, there are no remarried daughters, and no criminal men.

"Prince Xu is serious. Xiao is not talented, and he came here today to plead guilty." Xiao Shiji knew that Xu Yanhui had always been annoyed that Fang Wuniang married his father to fill the house.She always thinks that her mother's death is Fang Wuniang's fault.Therefore, he blamed the two sisters Du Hengshuang and Du Hengxue.When I was in Luoyang, I never missed any chance to bully them.

Xu Yanhui didn't expect Xiao Shiji to admit his mistake directly, but he didn't continue to use it, but sneered and said: "This official of Daqi has such a high-minded person, I, Xu Yanhui, want to meet for a while!"

Du Hengshuang stood aside without speaking.

Ever since she shot and killed Wang Xiaofu at the north gate of Pingkang Fang half a year ago, the eldest young master of the Xu family seemed to be afraid of her, and never made trouble with her and his sister.Every time I saw it in the mansion, I just turned a blind eye to it, no longer sneering and sarcastic like before.

Xiao Shiji followed Du Hengshuang into the middle hall of the main house in the Xu family's backyard.

Fang Wuniang knew that Xiao Shiji was coming. She sat in the hall without looking at him. She took Du Hengshuang's hand and looked at him carefully. She said angrily: "It's a hot day, you stay outside all the time? No one invites you to sit in the house." Sit down and see that you are sweaty and smelly, go back to the room and wash up, and don't use it to say hello today."

Du Hengshuang responded, looked at Xiao Shiji who was standing bowed in the hall, finally couldn't bear it, and called out in a low voice, "Mother..." He pouted at Xiao Shiji again.

Fang Wuniang gave Du Hengshuang a look of resentment, shook her head and said, "Go down quickly. I said you don't have to go today, but you still have to go. Is it interesting to make fun of yourself?" Du Hengshuang lowered his head after scolding, He walked past Xiao Shiji and went back to his room.

Fang Wuniang pointed to a position on the lower head, and said to Xiao Shiji, "Sit down."

Although the attitude is a bit condescending, it is still reasonable.Even regardless of the seniority of the family friends of the two families, Fang Wuniang's attitude is not an exaggeration if Fang Wuniang is the conferred lady of the third-rank county and Xiao Shiji is just a sixth-rank cavalry captain.

Xiao Shiji knew that Fang Wuniang was very angry.It is also now that she is filling the house for a high-ranking official, and her energy-raising skills have improved again. If she was still with Du Xiancheng before, she could just take a stick and smash the Xiao family's wedding hall.Today, he just expressed his alienation coldly, which is already giving Xiao Shiji a lot of face.

Xiao Shiji knew that this matter was done by his own family, but he didn't want to blame his own mother in front of outsiders, so he sat down sullenly, and the other party Wu Niang said: "Aunt Fang, today's fault is all my fault. , I also hope that Aunt Fang will not be as knowledgeable as me for my father's sake."

Seeing that Xiao Shiji didn't say a word about his mother Long Xiangye, Fang Wuniang felt half cold.He thought he sent Shuang'er back in a hurry to repent, but he didn't mention his mother Long Xiangye's fault, this repentance.How can Fang Wuniang be convinced?

Fang Wuniang lowered her head and pondered for a long time, but she still didn't want to play riddles with Xiao Shiji, so she sent out all the maids and women serving in the hall, leaving only a close confidant housekeeper to serve, and told Xiao Shiji the truth: "Brother Ji, although you did something a little dishonest about this matter, it also let us see your mother's sincerity. ——I really don't know. Why is our Shuang'er hindering her? We have to use all kinds of treasures to embarrass her She, Brother Ji, you are a man, and you will continue to run around as an official in the future. With your mother's attitude, I am really worried about marrying my daughter into your family. "

There is no doubt how much influence a mother-in-law has on a marriage.

"Go and find out, if the mother-in-law doesn't like her daughter-in-law, what will happen to the daughter-in-law? The best result is the end of reunion. The worst result is the death of the daughter-in-law. Everyone knows these things. You say , What reason do I have to marry Shuang'er? Just to get married with you in the future? Or was your mother forced me to die?"

Xiao Shiji was stunned, and hurriedly said: "Aunt Fang. This is too serious. My mother used to love Shuang'er, but recently...recently...it's my fault. My mother was worried that I would have a daughter-in-law, so she ignored it. Inside the house."

Fang Wuniang sneered, and said: "Look at what you said, I don't want to marry my daughter to you anymore. ——My daughter marries you, and you are a family with you, but according to what you said, she has a daughter-in-law. I will ignore it." At home, don't you treat my daughter as a family? You treat my daughter better. Just turn your elbows out? Just because outsiders ignore your mother? So it makes sense for your mother to be angry? "

A series of questions made Xiao Shiji sweat profusely, unable to lift his head.

After a long time, Xiao Shiji said slowly: "Aunt Fang should be angry. Aunt Fang will not believe what I say now. I just want to ask Aunt Fang not to change the date of marriage. In these two months, I need to rectify The Xiao family, don't make trouble for Shuang'er. As for my mother, she is old, and she may not be considerate in her actions, and she will rest in the backyard to recuperate in peace, and will not embarrass Shuang'er again."

"Why do you make me believe it?"

Xiao Shiji stood up, took two steps forward, knelt down with a plop, and kowtowed twice to Fang Wuniang, "After two months, if Aunt Fang still doesn't believe me, I have nothing to say." ——I, Xiao Shiji I swear here, if I can't marry Sister Shuang'er, I, Xiao Shiji, will never marry a wife and have children in my life, and I would rather be alone for the rest of my life!"

Fang Wuniang stared at Xiao Shiji for a while, nodded slowly and said: "Okay, I will remember. I will give you two months to see your sincerity."

Du Hengshuang heard this in his room, sighed softly, continued to lower his head, and embroidered a pair of mandarin ducks on the embroidery frame.

That was the red hijab she wore on her wedding day.Under the peony flowers, a pair of mandarin ducks are lingering and lingering, vividly.

After Xiao Shiji returned home, he didn't go back to the backyard, but stayed in the outer courtyard. First, he ordered people to go to the inner courtyard to send a message to let Xiao Taiji and Guan Yunlian and his wife move out of the courtyard of the new house.Then check the roster of servants that Xiao Yi sent up, and remove all those who are unfamiliar.

When Long Xiangye married Xiao Xiangsheng back then, she didn't even have much dowry, so how could she have a companion room?

The so-called "companion houses" are all voted in from the Long family after the Xiao family revived.

Of course, Long Xiangye hoped that her mother's family would have as many people as possible, and she also wanted to have more helpers. The key positions in the inner courtyard, such as purchasing, kitchen, accounting and warehouse, etc., were all hired by her servants from her mother's family.

The porter of the outer courtyard has just stepped in to arrange the staff.

Xiao Shiji is used to doing shady things outside, although he has never paid attention to these things in the mansion, but now he picks it up and looks at it, and he understands the tricks inside.

To be honest, the secret methods played by these women in the inner house are really nothing compared to what he experienced outside.

He just didn't think that the family would have so many hearts divided, but it seemed that he was a bit self-sufficient in working desperately outside.

Xiao Shiji still didn't want to play tricks with his relatives, so he ordered that in the future, any involvement in these matters in this family must be done with Xiao Shiji's nod.Anyone who wants to pass him, pull people in from the outside, find out and sell them to Liaodong as slaves.

In order to establish his prestige, Xiao Shi and the servants from Long's family were all sent to the tooth shop, and he asked the compradors he was familiar with to sell them to Liaodong.

This is for Long Xiangye and everyone in the Xiao family.If some servants want to make things difficult for the young lady because the old lady doesn't like the future young lady in order to curry favor with the old lady, they have to weigh their own weight and see if they dare to risk angering the young lady. Continue to fight against the young lady.

In fact, in this world dominated by men, the problem of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is always a man's problem, and the roots are all in men.

Long Xiangye naturally knew this too, she was trembling with anger, but she also knew that there was nothing she could do for the time being.

For his eldest son, it seems that his heart can't be won back.No matter how troublesome he is, it will only make him more rebellious, and he will only focus on those enchanting women in the Du family.

Xiao Taiji and Guan Yunlian were taken out of the yard of their new house as a result of a catastrophe.

Xiao Taiji knew that the yard of the new house was prepared by his eldest brother for his own wedding, so he didn't say anything.

Guan Yunlian was not used to it.She had just married and lived in such a luxurious courtyard. She was not happy for two days, and she was about to move back to Xiao Taiji's courtyard immediately. She said that it was impossible to have no thoughts in her heart, but fortunately she held back and did not complain.

When returning home on the third day, Guan Yunlian vomited bitterness to her mother, aunt, and cousin.

Chen Yuejiao sat down and listened absent-mindedly, with a slight smile on her face.Very well, everything is moving towards the track of the previous life. Even if there is no "Du Heng" factor, Du Hengshuang still falls behind her cousin.In the last life, because of this first-come-first-served order, when "Du Heng" married in four years later, I don't know how many famines were fought before he seized the housekeeping right.This time, she wanted her to have no chance to seize the housekeeper right.
