Chapter 49
In the west courtyard of Pang Mansion, Yiqing heard Leqing's cheerful laughter and the tender cry of a baby before getting out of the soft sedan chair. She quickly lifted the curtain and got off the sedan chair, and saw a delicate figure of apricot red rushing towards her. , Leqing called her sister repeatedly, and hugged Yiqing tightly without being able to stand still!
Yiqing's heart was hot, her eyes were red, she hugged Leqing back and forced a smile, "Le'er, I've been away for so many days, do you miss me?"

Le Qing let go of Yi Qing, raised her head, her eyes were as red as a rabbit, and she said with tears in her eyes, "I think about it! My mother and I think about it every day, and my brother also thinks about it! We have to miss you several times every night before we can sleep peacefully,"

Yiqing burst out laughing: "No wonder my ears are hot every night, it's you! Why does Yiming miss me? He's so young, he can cry!"

"He was crying because he missed you! He was breastfeeding just now, when Sister Cai'er came in and reported that Mrs. Hou's sedan chair had entered the Moon Cave Gate, I just said: Go pick up Big Sister! Then I ran outside, and he immediately followed Crying loudly! Elder sister, look, mother is hugging younger brother and waiting for you at the edge of the porch!"

Yiqing hurriedly let go of Leqing, walked forward quickly with her skirt in hand, knelt down and bowed to Ruxue who was standing on the porch, and said, "Daughter pays respects to mother! May mother be in good health in the new year." , good luck, everything goes well!"

"My daughter, wake up quickly!"

Pang Ruxue's smile is gentle and comfortable, and her beautiful eyes are full of love that is unique to a loving mother. She has done a good job in confinement, raised her white and fat, and is as delicate and tender as a woman in her twenties. She is also anxious to see her eldest daughter. As soon as Yue Qing ran away, her son was crying again. She hurriedly followed her out, frightening the mother-in-law and servants, coaxing, persuading and dragging them back to the house.

Yiqing got up, and walked with Leqing to help Pang Ruxue into the house. She looked at the baby in her mother's arms with a smile, and said, "Xia Yiming, I'm the big sister. I'm here to wish you a happy new year! I wish you a healthy life." Stay healthy and grow up fast!"

He stretched out another finger and tapped Xiaofentuan's delicate and tender face. Xia Yiming stopped crying at this time. In fact, it was a fake cry just now. There was no tear in his eyes at all. Yiqing's finger After touching his cheeks, the little guy opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue, turned his head to look around, as if he wanted to bite Yiqing's fingers.

Seeing his cuteness, everyone laughed, and Yue Qing and Yu Yan and Yu Jiao who entered the room afterward laughed even harder. This is how they usually coax Xia Yiming.

The nanny came over to pick up Xia Yiming and put him in the cradle so that the older sisters could coax him to play. Xia Yiming has a good appetite and a lot of food. He eats the nanny's milk as well as snow. He just ate enough. After playing for a while, he was about to fall asleep again. The sisters teased him differently. Xia Yiming looked from side to side with his big bright eyes, but he still couldn't see clearly. Although he has a face, but he can recognize the voice, and from time to time he will present an absolutely innocent and sweet smile to his sisters, which attracts a few girls to fall in love with him even more, and they can't help rushing to kiss him.

Le Qing showed her rare dominance at this time, she could kiss her younger brother casually, but did not allow the two cousins ​​to kiss too many times, Yu Yan was not convinced, but she couldn't compete with her, she turned around with tears in her eyes Looking at Grandma Pang Da, she said:
"Yiming is also our cousin, and Sister Le wants to dominate alone! Mother, you also give me another younger brother!"

Yujiao hurriedly said, "I want it too! Mother, give me one too!"

Everyone in the room couldn't help being overjoyed when they heard that, Grandma Pang Da was very embarrassed, she couldn't laugh or cry and said: "I want to be a mother, but you can't have a child just because you want to! If I were as lucky as your eldest aunt, I would have given birth to you a long time ago." !"

After she finished speaking, she looked at Yiqing, and smiled again: "Don't worry, there is only one Yiming now, after a while, Sister Qing will definitely give birth to a big fat boy, so you don't have to fight so hard !"

Yuyan Yujiao took it seriously when she heard it, her eyes looking at Yiqing twinkled like stars, Yujiao rushed in front of Yuyan and grabbed Yiqing's hand and said, "Sister Qing, give birth soon, I will take care of the little nephews after they are born, and I won't let them kiss randomly!"

This time it was Xia Yiqing's turn to be embarrassed, her face was as red as a pomegranate flower, Grandma Pang Da saw Yuyan Yujiao clinging to Yiqing, and smiled even more happily: "It's not difficult for you to hug your little nephew quickly, teach me One way for you: Let sister Qing and brother-in-law Hou Ye hug Yiming more, dolls like dolls, and Yiming will attract precious sons for sister Qing and brother-in-law..."

The women and servants at the side agreed unanimously: "That's right, we folks have this saying! Newly married couples, as long as they like little dolls, they can give birth to their own babies soon if they hug and coax more. baby!"

After hearing these words, Le Qing over there had already moved her heart, and without Yu Yan or Yu Jiao urging her, she quickly picked Xia Yiming out of the cradle and stuffed her into Yi Qing's arms: "Sister, give her a hug." Naruto!"

The three girls surrounded Yiqing, the old god seemed to be doing a very sacred thing, Yuyan carefully helped to tuck the swaddling clothes, Yujiao rolled her eyes and said, "If Master Hou can also come and hug Yiming ,Enough!"

Le Qing and Yu Yan nodded repeatedly when they heard the words.

Yiqing could only smile wryly at Yiming, the little milk baby was so cute, he yawned and wrinkled his nose for a while, with rich and funny expressions, Yiqing was very happy to hold him.

Thanks to Mrs. Yu's poor health in recent years, she has no energy to take care of her grandchildren. Yuyan and Yujiao were raised by their mother, Mrs. Jiang, and they were not close to their grandmother. With a dark heart, he raised his two daughters with etiquette and rules, but he never deliberately taught them the survival rules of fighting for power among women in the house, praising the superior and stepping down the inferior. He just let them grow up naturally, Yan and Yujiao are nine-year-old and seven-year-old, half-grown girls, gentle and peaceful, not as arrogant, domineering, unreasonable as aunt Pang Ruyun, sister Xia Yiqing lived in the west courtyard of Pang Mansion for more than two months, and the cousins ​​get along well Very harmonious.

After sitting and playing around for a while, several people over there came over to answer Grandma Pang Da, and Grandma Pang Da had to take her two daughters to the Dafu first.

Pang Ruxue asked the servants to step back, and the three of them cuddled together as they did in their hometown in Huzhou, talking softly and relaxedly, Xia Yiming's cradle was placed in front of him, and the little one was patted to sleep by Yiqing He fell asleep and put it in the cradle, as if he felt that he was surrounded by strong family affection. He stretched his brows and relaxed his face, and slept very soundly.

Hearing Yiqing talk about Yu Shi and Pang Ruyun blocking the way in the yard to ask for "reconciliation" and being rejected by her, Pang Ruxue had a look of worry on her face, and said: "Qing'er, they are elders after all, so you don't like it even if you don't like it." You should make some concessions, what if they accuse you of disrespecting your elders, go to the banquet and gossip, and make you look bad?"

Le Qing said nonchalantly: "Mother, have you forgotten? Mrs. Yu was imprisoned in the inner courtyard by her grandfather, and she was not allowed to go out of the second door! It was only said to the outside world that she was ill and could not see guests. How could she be a demon?" Don’t be afraid of the grandma of Jian’s family! She came to the west courtyard to make a scene a few times, but I chased her away every time. My grandfather knew about it and warned her specially: If there is another time, she will not be allowed to see Mrs. Yu again in this life If they are not afraid, feel free to provoke us!"

Yiqing also comforted Pang Ruxue, saying that Marquis Rong Ping couldn't accompany her back to her mother's house to pay New Year's greetings because of something.Of course Yiqing had to deny it without hesitation, and handed over 3000 taels of silver to Ruxue, saying that it was for the son-in-law to honor his mother-in-law.

Yiqing said with a smile: "My daughter is now learning to manage the affairs of the Hou Mansion. The old lady and the wife trust her very much. Although the Hou Ye has not yet held an official position, all his income has been handed over to me. He treats his daughter very well." OK!"

What she said was half-truth and half-false, Yiqing was also very helpless, she didn't want her mother and younger sister to worry, so she had to lie!
In my previous life, I heard people from my grandma's generation say: Marry a man, marry a man, dress and eat. This is what the women of this dynasty hold in mind—whether they marry the right one, and whether the son-in-law is good or not depends on whether he is willing to give it to him or not. Wife spends money generously!
Therefore, Yiqing simply told her mother that her son-in-law left all the money bags in her hands. This lie should be perfect.

Sure enough, Ruxue heaved a sigh of relief, her complexion returned to soft and peaceful, she was obviously relieved, Leqing was also very happy, she said a lot of envious words about her sister and brother-in-law, Yiqing raised her hand to her forehead, and felt beads of sweat there String dripping.

When he was embarrassed, he heard Grandma Pang Da sent someone to report that the new uncle, Rong Pinghou, had arrived, and thoughtfully told Madam Hou to let her spend more time with his mother-in-law, aunt, and brother-in-law, so that he would not have to go through the front hall. She will explain one or two things to her grandfather, uncle and other relatives, and after the banquet, she will go to the West Courtyard to pick up his wife and return home together!
After receiving this news, Le Qing was very happy, and Yi Qing's mood could not be described as unhappy. She clearly realized that something must have changed, and Zheng Jingyan would give up the opportunity to meet his lover and come to Pang's mansion, no matter what So, since it's a good thing, since it's coming, it's good for me and the Pang family, at least I've earned a lot of face, and it's not what she asked for, so it's for nothing!

Zheng Jingyan talked and socialized with everyone at the banquet, but he didn't drink much wine. After the banquet, refreshments were served, and relatives and friends continued to talk about everything for a long time. Pang Shizhi knew that Zheng Jingyan was going to visit his mother-in-law in the West Courtyard, so he found an excuse. Let Pang Ruhai accompany Lord Hou to leave first.

I made a special trip to visit my mother-in-law, Pang, because I was accompanied by Zheng Ji. The old butler was honest and loyal, and he was loyal to the long-dead Mrs. Zheng. The old lady sent him to follow Zheng Jingyan, there must have been some explanations, Zheng Jingyan respected the old housekeeper since he was a child, just because he wanted to play tricks, but he had the courage and heart, and couldn't bear to embarrass the elders.
