Fair Lady

After getting rid of Qi Haoning's belt, Shuyao began to prepare to make new autumn and winter robes for her adoptive father. Prince Yong also wanted to make two pieces. Do it slowly. When the embroidery is finished, send it to Uncle Gui. It's a gift.The prospective father-in-law enjoys her filial piety so much, and has given him some rare gadgets. Wouldn't it be disappointing if he did it last year and didn't do it this year?

All the items that Shuyao made for Qi Haoning were entrusted to Li Tingzhi to take them to Guangdong City. Even Uncle Gui, the housekeeper of Prince Yong's residence, sent a large basket of dry goods and other things.

As Yunli's cousin and brother-in-law, Shujie gave Li Tingzhi some advice: "If you can help Shizi Ning complete the task smoothly this time, it will be a great achievement. Don't worry about your family. We and our grandparents' family will take care of them.

Li Tingzhi hurriedly bowed his hands and saluted: "Thank you cousin, don't worry, cousin, I will definitely live up to the grace of God, and to the support of my grandfather, uncle, and cousin."

The Empress Dowager and the Empress understood that the Yun family wanted to keep their daughter for a year or two longer. At the same time, the two girls had just returned from the Northwest, and they had a lot to learn and adapt to. Even embroidering the dowry would take more than half a year, wouldn't it?

Yun Ting's wedding date is set for November next year, but the date of Yun Li's marriage has not been fixed. It is only roughly set within three months after Li Tingzhi's return to Beijing. In any case, it will be after Yun Ting's wedding date.

Before Li Tingzhi left Beijing, he met Yun Li at Yun's house, and earnestly begged her to take care of his little sister Li Yan, and take Li Yan to learn the rules, embroidery and so on.Li Yan is ten years younger than Li Tingzhi, only twelve this year.Li Yan's mother passed away not long after she was born. Li Yan, who was well-behaved and sensible since she was a child, didn't let her father and elder brother bother to take care of her.I also learned to cook and wash clothes by myself, and take care of my father and brother.However, Li Yan was born in a small family, and rarely went out to deal with outsiders. She was too shy, even timid and cowardly.

Li Tingzhi looked at Yunli nervously, he was very worried that Yunli would not like it, and even refused.His father told him not to say it, even though his elder sister-in-law was like his mother.But how can someone ask someone to take care of a sister-in-law before the daughter-in-law comes in?What's more, Yun Li herself is only fifteen, only three years older than Li Yan.

How long has Father Li been looking forward to his daughter-in-law?It was not easy for the general's daughter-in-law to marry into their Li family. She was very satisfied with her son's statement that she was strong and cheerful, and she was afraid that her son's "unreasonable demands" would scare away the prospective daughter-in-law. (Father Li is too nervous. Even if the queen mother gave her the marriage, even if she was really scared, she would not be able to "run away", haha)

Seeing Li Tingzhi's nervous look, Yun Li thought it was something serious and waited to finish listening.She curled her lips and smiled: "What's the big deal? I'll ask the coachman to pick her up tomorrow, and I'll take her back in the evening. Didn't you just say that uncle likes to go to Zhuangzi often? Yan'er lives in our house when he's not at home. I'll let her go when uncle comes back." Someone came over to let me know. Don't worry, Yan'er will follow me, and I promise you won't be timid again."

Li Tingzhi looked at the "proud" Yun Li, his eyes were burning with great enthusiasm, and he wished he could hug the sunny smiling woman in front of him immediately.It's a pity...he didn't dare.That's the way to really scare the future little wife.

"Is it really possible? Will the elders..." Li Tingzhi really hoped that the little girl could get in touch with Yunli more. When will that weak and timid little girl be as bright as the sun like Yunli.Father and he can rest assured.Moreover, the younger sister can live in Yunfu for a while, and the father can go out with peace of mind.

Father Li has been doing some small woodcarving business, because he is honest and good at craftsmanship. After arriving in the capital, because there are many rich people in the capital, the business has become better and better. Now the family bought a small village in the outer suburbs.My father always hopes to go to Zhuangzi more to search for suitable wood and tree roots on the back mountain of Zhuangzi, and to take a few apprentices to expand the business gradually, and to save more dowry gifts. After two years, I will give my daughter Save dowry.

Yun Li smiled and said: "No, grandpa and grandma know that there is a little sister in your family. She lost her mother to take care of her not long after she was born. She is very sorry. Uncle, aunt, and my mother are all very kind people. Here, they will be very happy." Yun Li also lost her biological mother when she was very young, but the two sisters were luckier, having a grandmother and an aunt, and later when the stepmother came in, she treated them as her own.

Before Li Tingzhi left, he personally asked General Yun and Yun Deyan for instructions again. As Yun Li said, Yun Deyan smiled and said, "This is a good thing. The elder sister-in-law is like a mother. Li'er has more contact with your younger sister so that the sister-in-law can develop a relationship. You tell your father that he can go about his own affairs and let Yan'er live with us when he is not in the house. Also, your father When you have free time, you can often come to our mansion to chat with Grandpa Li'er and me, we have also stayed in the countryside for decades, so there is nothing to be restrained about."

Li Tingzhi quickly responded respectfully and expressed his sincere gratitude.To be honest, he went to Guangdong City this time, and the date of his return was undecided, so he was really worried about his father and younger sister. Now that he is well, with the Yue family taking care of him for a while, he has no worries. Later, he got his cousin Shujie. Take the initiative to promise, and set off with confidence.He secretly swears in his heart that for Yun Li, he will strive to complete the task as soon as possible and make new achievements.Without Yunli, how could he have such loving relatives?

In summer, Xiaoguai and Huohuo are the quietest. As long as there is an ice basin in the house, they lie there for a long time without any movement.At this time, they nestled at Shuyao's feet one by one, "closing their eyes and resting their minds".

Shuyao looked at these two super lazy things, shook her head amusedly, and continued to embroider the robe in her hand.

Mother Liu just came back from the outside, washed her hands and brought in a plate of fruit for Shuyao, smiling all over her face: "Sister, guess, what happened to those two families in Daming Fucheng recently?"

Shuyao snorted, seeing Liu's mother smiling so wickedly, could there be good things going on between those two families?

Liu's mother knew what Shuyao meant, and she also found it funny: "Sister, don't laugh at me, this time the two families are really good things, their own good things."

"Oh?" Shuyao raised her head with interest, it's rare for Mother Liu to emphasize so much, it seems very interesting.

Even Zijin and Baijin who were sitting on the side looked at Liu's mother with twinkling eyes. From their point of view, if they could make Liu's mother smile so brightly, then those two families were not too "good" even if they really had something good to do.

Seeing that the three of them paid attention, Mother Liu felt a sense of accomplishment. She took a sip of the tea Bai Jin poured for her, and said leisurely, "Let's talk about the Murong family first. Uncle Murong has officially adopted his concubine Jia Qiaoniang as his wife."

Shuyao was not surprised, now that Murong Ziye is no longer an official, and Murong Shangshu is gone, how can he not help himself?What's more, Jia Qiaoniang now has two sons.

Mother Liu blinked: "It's not over, I heard that Jia Qiaoniang's sister Cuizhu was not dead, and she was found by her, and now she has taken it back to Murong Mansion. Tsk tsk, what a pity, I heard that she had her tongue cut out and sold her. Going to the most humble building, after these few years, I have been tortured to the point of being inhumane." As for how humble, she didn't say it, and she didn't have to dirty her girl's ears.

oh?Shuyao also always thought that Cui Zhu had been killed by the Zhen family long ago, but unexpectedly, it turned out that life would be worse than death.But she will not sympathize with Cui Zhu, Murong Mansion is behind the scenes, Zhen Mansion is at the foreground, but Cui Zhu is the murderer who directly and personally killed her mother, and is also the chief culprit who deceived her around in her previous life.Whether she was killed or was killed so that her life was worse than death, it was her own retribution.

Very good, all gathered together, the two prefectures of Damingfu City are getting more and more lively, Shuyao is looking forward to their continuous good shows.

Bai Jin became more anxious: "Mom, what about the Zhen family? Could it be that Grandma Zhen really gave birth to a son?" That would be too cheap for the Zhen family. Such a vicious, heartless family should cut off their children and grandchildren. have eyes.But, uh, Grandma Zhen seems to have been wronged.

Mother Liu burst out laughing, tapped Bai Jin's forehead and scolded, "It's only been a few months, do you think a hen lays eggs and lays eggs as soon as you say so?"

Bai Jin was taken aback, wasn't he?Ten months pregnant, she smiled shyly: "Mom, don't be a fool, so what good things can the Zhen family do now? Doesn't it mean that the business of the restaurant has plummeted?"

Mother Liu smiled and said, "It's just you who are anxious. You have to say it sentence by sentence. Hehe, then Zhen Dafu is capable. He found a scholar who was called a child prodigy for Zhen Keling as his son-in-law. I heard that he Now he is bragging about that son-in-law, uh, he seems to be called Xue Minglang, and now he is waiting for the son-in-law to be named on the gold list a few years later to vent his anger and benefit the Zhen family, and of course, hehe, to carry on the family line of the Zhen family."

Xue Minglang?Shu Yao was startled, then took a breath, her hand was pricked by a needle, and blood beads appeared, she quickly put her hand to her mouth and sucked it.

Mother Liu took a clean white cotton handkerchief and asked Shu Yao to put it on her finger, and said angrily, "Why are you so careless? Are we still afraid that he won't succeed? Even if Xue Minglang can win the first prize, it won't be his turn." Did he vent his anger on our Lianghou Mansion and General Zhongyi's Mansion?"

Shuyao stabilized her mind, and said with a smile: "Okay, mom, isn't this strange? Zhen Keling was only 12 years old, and she was forced to marry into the Murong Mansion at that time, and now no one is forcing her, so there is no need to be so anxious ?”

Mother Liu curled her lips: "The Zhen family finally has a little self-knowledge. I am afraid that the more time passes, the more rumors about their family will be spread, and they will not be able to find a son-in-law who will satisfy him. I heard that this Xue Minglang was found from a long way away. , seems to be an orphan. His father died a few years ago, and his mother died of illness a while ago. He has no source of income, and he has no power to restrain the chicken. One of the stewards of Zhen's house happens to be Xue Minglang's distant cousin. He knows that Zhen Dafu I wanted to find someone who has no father or mother to marry, so I thought of my cousin. Anyway, the girl is still young, and the boy is a filial piety, so she can't get married right away, so she signed a contract first, and then married after three years." (To be continued.
