Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 330 Assessment ahead of time (2 more)
Jin Bao's words made the aunt Song Fang lean forward and backward with laughter.

Mrs. Song was full of complacency, "Look at this grandson of mine, he's a smart kid at a young age, he has a good brain, and he's sure to be promising in the future."

Song Fang couldn't laugh or cry, "Are you swearing or praising?"

Mrs. Song gave her a white look, "Can I still scold my grandson in front of my daughter-in-law?"

Song Fang said: "Yes, then you are troubled, how about you praise your grandson in front of your own mother and your own daughter?"

Mrs. Song was so choked that she gave Song Fang a sneaky look.

When there are many people in front of her, this girl doesn't know how to save face for her.

At this time, Mrs. Xu made a sound, but she told the servant girl behind her, "Go and see, is the table arranged?"

This can be regarded as a temporary solution to the embarrassment in the house.

Knowing that her mother is not good at smooth talk, Song Fang didn't force her anymore.

Song Jiao stood up and walked up to Song Fang, "Little aunt, give me the candied fruit, I'll feed it to Jin Bao."

Song Fang looked at her. A few years ago, when she was at home, the little girl was yellow-skinned and skinny. After coming to the capital for half a year, her skin became tender and tender, and the red spots on her cheeks that were blown by the wind disappeared. My hometown is much fresher.

"This girl, the change is really great." Song Fang gave her the plate of candied fruit while talking to Wen Wan, "If you didn't bring it, we would meet on the street, and I dare not recognize her as My eldest niece."

Song Jiao sat down at the side, just after feeding Jin Bao a candied fruit, when she heard this, her ears felt a little hot.

"Who says it's not?" Aunt Xie glanced at Song Jiao, and then at Song Fang: "In just half a year, your third brother and third sister-in-law have transformed her from a country girl into an official lady, and there are maids around to serve her." , There is also a foster mother, I reckon, when Saburo becomes more successful, people will line up to come to kiss him, and she will not let her choose what she wants."

Song Fang knew about the upbringing of the nanny, and it was sent from here. That nanny had taught her sister-in-law Xu Jia before. Xu Jia has always liked to dance with swords and swords. After a long time, it was an eyesore. Mrs. Xu stayed by her side It was useless, and he was afraid that the Song family would not be able to invite him well, so he sent it over.

"If I remember correctly, my eldest niece will be thirteen during Chinese New Year, right?" Song Fang said, "In a year or two, we will almost be able to get engaged."

He also asked Song Jiao what kind of husband-in-law he wanted to pick, whether he liked literature or martial arts.

With so many people sitting together talking about her marriage, Song Jiao was so ashamed that she couldn't bear it. When she was asked what type she liked, the glimpse at the palace banquet unexpectedly appeared in her mind, and she quickly lowered her eyes and shook her head. "I have no idea."

Wen Wan glanced at the little girl's expression casually, then looked away, and said with a smile: "I'm only 12 years old, the bean sprouts that have just sprouted from the soil are still tender, and I don't have any experience. I don't know what kind of person is suitable for life. You Now I have to put people in front of me and let her choose, the little girl will be able to choose directly."

"That's true." Song Fang agreed: "It will be enough to raise her for another two years, how much experience she has gained."

When Song Jiao was mentioned, Song Fang thought of her second elder brother and second sister-in-law who were still in her hometown in Ningzhou, and looked at the little girl, "I heard that your mother was already pregnant when you came, and she should have given birth by now, right? "

"He gave birth." Mrs. Song answered, "It's a son."

Song Fang was overjoyed, "Second elder brother and second sister-in-law are looking forward to the stars and the moon, so they are looking forward to their son."

Maybe it's because she became a mother, but Song Fang thinks it's not incomprehensible when she recalls some of the behaviors of the second sister-in-law back then.

In front of her mother-in-law, Mrs. Song was not good at criticizing her son and daughter-in-law, so she casually said a few words in accordance with Song Fang's meaning.

Not long after, the maid who was sent out by Mrs. Xu came back and said: "Madam, the table is ready, should we go now?"

Mrs. Xu did not reply directly, but looked at Mrs. Song.

In other people's homes, of course not in my own home, Mrs. Song said: "It's convenient for us to follow relatives and mothers, we can do whatever we want."

Mrs. Xu smiled, "In this case, let's move to the table! Let's chat while eating."

As he spoke, he took the lead in leading the way.

Mrs. Song and Aunt Xie got up one after another to follow.

Wen Wan, Xie Tao's wife and Song Jiao stayed behind.

Seeing that Song Fang had no intention of leaving, she asked her gently, "Are you not planning to go out for dinner?"

Song Fang glanced at the cradle worriedly, "I'm a little worried."

Although there was a nanny and a maid, she basically didn't need to worry about anything, Song Fang still couldn't leave the two treasures and go out to eat by herself.

In addition to being a little psychologically repulsed at the time of birth, and later forming a habit, she regarded the two children as part of her body. Song Fang even exaggerated to the point that whenever the baby slept too quietly, her first reaction would be to sniff her breath. Every time you have to confirm that the child is okay, you can breathe a sigh of relief.

Wen Wan was also so cautious when she first gave birth to Jinbao. She probably understood Song Fang, and said to Mrs. Song: "Since Mrs. Fang doesn't want to go out, then don't force her. Mom, you can go to the banquet to eat, let the rest of you eat." Someone will bring the food here, and I will stay with my sister-in-law."

Mrs. Song has no objection, mainly because of the identity of Young Mistress Song Fang, and the guests here are all wives and wives of aristocratic families.

After hearing this, Mrs. Xu turned her head and told Song Fang that it was all right, and she would not go out if she didn't want to go out. Anyway, the guests who came to the banquet today were just for friendship, and it was enough for her, the mistress of the house, to show up.

Song Fang glanced at her mother-in-law gratefully.

Before Mrs. Xu left, she ordered her servants to bring food to the sister-in-law and sister-in-law.

Jin Bao was dragged by Song Jiao to the banquet, Wen Wan moved to the cradle and sat down, carefully looked at the two white and tender babies, with a smile on his face, "I heard from my mother before that the boy is Jing Bo, The girl is Jingyi, named after your mother-in-law?"

Song Fang nodded and said yes.

In big families, names are usually bestowed by elders.

"How about it, is it hard to take care of two children?" Wen Wan asked again.

Speaking of this, Song Fang had a headache, "Don't mention it, both of them are not peaceful masters, why don't you put them together, no, put them together, one cries, and the other cries, that voice, It’s comparable to our hometown killing pigs for the New Year. Especially at night, you look at my dark circles, I haven’t slept peacefully for several days.”

Wen Wan was so amused by her metaphor that she wanted to laugh, "Don't you have a nanny in your family?"

"How can we rely on the nanny for everything?" Song Fang curled her lips, "It is necessary to be on guard against others. Even if the mother-in-law personally picks the person, you have to worry about it? I heard a few days ago that someone from the east of the city The big family had a fierce battle in the inner house. Not long after the baby was born, the big house hired a nanny. The nanny was an eyeliner placed by the second wife. Before feeding the baby, he drank the medicine himself, but the medicine was eaten into the baby's stomach along the mother's milk. Go, die before the full moon, I feel horrified when I hear such a thing."

"Then you don't worry about this, don't worry about that, it's not a problem to support yourself!"

"I'm idle anyway." Song Fang said: "It's no different than Sister-in-law San, you have to go to the Hongwen Museum. You are really tired."

Wen Wan mentioned this matter, feeling regretful in her heart, "I want to finish the Hongwen Museum courses before giving birth, but unfortunately when you went there, I couldn't speak."

"Isn't it good like it is now? My mother helped take care of it. Even if it doesn't look good, at least she has a good heart and won't harm her grandson."

Wen Wan glared at her, "Don't say such things again, mother-in-law is so kind to help me take care of the children. If I want to criticize, then I am not a daughter-in-law. Outsiders know, maybe why?" Poke my spine and scold!"

During the conversation, Mei Zhi led someone to bring in the food for the two of them.

As soon as Song Fang finished telling Wen Wan not to be polite, the little guy in the cradle on the left started crying.

The nanny who lived in the compartment heard the sound and rushed over immediately, and wanted to carry Young Master Sun to nurse him, fearing that it would affect the young grandma's meal.

Song Fang refused and asked her to feed her in the room.

"..." Wen Wan felt that my sister-in-law might be a bit of a loser.

……

Without his mother to accompany him, Jinbao couldn't stay long, and after eating delicious food at the table, he begged his sister to send him back to find his mother.

Song Jiao was halfway through the meal, and was so entangled by the little guy that he had to put down the dishes and take him back to Songfang Courtyard.

As soon as the little guy entered the door, he threw himself into Wen Wan's arms. After rubbing for a few times, he grabbed his mother's arm and pulled it out, saying that he wanted to go out and do a lap.

Wen Wan was a little surprised that he still remembered the incident of going to the shore of Jinghu Lake a few months ago, but Jinghu Lake was too far away, so Wen Wan discussed it and asked: "Just make a few circles here and give it a try." Treasure is playing with it, okay?"

The little guy disagreed and wanted to go out.

Song Fang asked, "What circle?"

Wen Wan had no choice but to tell the truth about her trip to the lake on her birthday a few months ago.

Song Fang laughed, "I didn't expect the little guy to like that, third sister-in-law should take him there, it's not even noon yet, you can play for an hour or two and come back in time for dinner."

……

Wen Wan talked to her mother-in-law, Mrs. Xu, and took Song Jiao and Jin Bao with her. The three of them got out of the General's Mansion, got into a carriage, and headed straight towards Jinghu Lake. When they opened the curtain halfway, they found that there was a notice posted underneath, standing next to them. There are many onlookers, at first glance, most of them are scholars.

Wen Wan asked Lin Bo to stop, and asked Song Jiao to wait up there with Jin Bao, and she went down to have a look.

When she came back, Song Jiao asked her, "Third Aunt, what was written on the notice?"

Wen Wan said: "This year, because the emperor is happy with the second prince, he opened Enke."

Song Jiao was puzzled, "What is Enke?"

Wen Wan explained: "The imperial examination is held every three years. Enke means to take another exam in these three years, and the students who fail the most times will be recorded separately on a roster and presented to the emperor. Most of them will pass the exam." .”

Song Jiao was still puzzled, "Then what does this have to do with us?"

Wen Wan patiently explained, "Opening Enke means that next year there will be a group of Enke Scholars entering the Hanlin Academy, and it also means that the common hall where your uncle Xie is staying will be closed early. To put it bluntly, he originally had to wait three The annual assessment has been advanced."
