Chapter 406
"What's so valuable? It's just a few stones inlaid with gold. In a few days, the prison will send a few sets of pearl noodles, all of which are made of South China Sea pearls. At that time, sister-in-law will divide them into two sets? "Ding Wei is not a stingy person, and she is happy that her brother has reorganized the family. She can't wait to give all the good things to her sister-in-law. She only hopes that she will help her brother to support the Ding family.
Sure enough, after hearing what the girl said, Ding Laoer no longer refused, "It is enough to have these two sets, but I can't give them to your sister-in-law."
"Okay, we'll talk about it later." Ding Wei didn't try to persuade her anymore, she just took a pair of ruby pendants and compared them to Dong's ears, and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law has fair skin, which suits this color. I will wear it when I return home tomorrow." Come on, it looks festive."
Mrs. Dong remembered that her mother at home didn't know how to miss her, and if she went back wearing the jewelry bestowed by the empress, it would really bring honor to her parents, so she blushed and thanked her again.
The sister-in-law and sister-in-law chatted a few more gossips before Ding Wei pushed the other small box in front of her brother and said in a low voice, "Second brother, there is a silver note of 1 taels here, you take it."
"No! I don't want it!" Ding Laoer almost stared his eyes round in a hurry. The jewelry just now was a gift from the sister-in-law to the sister-in-law. , this is too unreasonable.
"All your money is left to An Geer and the two children in your belly. Our family already has a fortune, and the shop also receives money every day, so there is no shortage of money. Not only that, when Dabao grows up, gets married and has children, If you hold up the lintel of Kang Pingbo's mansion, I will also give him half of the family's money. No matter what, I will not ask for your money!"
Seeing that her brother was in a hurry, Ding Wei quickly explained, "Second brother, you also know that I have dividends from the silver mine. The silver is almost like running water, but it happens that I can't spend it in the palace. Now that the family has sealed the title, open After entering the mansion, there must be a lot more places to use silver than before. The 1 taels of silver should be regarded as the foundation for my family, and when Dabao grows up and opens the mansion, I will also give a share of it."
Ding Er still refused, but Ding Wei had no choice but to preemptively said, "Second brother doesn't want my money, is he still blaming me for hurting the family?"
"No!" When Ding Laoer saw the red eyes of the girl, he felt pain in his heart, and quickly waved his hands, "Wei Er, you can't think like that. Don't talk about me, it's my parents and elder brothers and sisters-in-law. I didn't blame you in the slightest. Mother always said that there is nothing wrong with the family, and I only hope that you are well..."
Thinking of the tragic death of his parents, brother and sister-in-law, Ding Lao Er also choked up and couldn't continue speaking.No matter how beautiful the Ding family is now, the fact that the family was ruined cannot be eliminated.Every time he walks in the spacious and grand courtyard, he always thinks of his parents and the past days of happy gatherings.Now that the girl has a big belly, he can't make her sad no matter what.
"Okay, I'll take it."
Ding Laoer took the box and squeezed it in his hand, his knuckles turned white.
"You must remember to take good care of yourself. As long as you are well, our Ding family will be well."
Ding Wei lowered her head and wiped her tears, and when she looked up, she saw Dong's expression was also concerned, and she became closer to her in her heart.
While they were talking, the children came back from school, and Mrs. Cheng and Liu Niang also hugged Yu'er and came over to say hello.The warm pavilion, which was still somewhat empty at first, suddenly seemed crowded and noisy, but it was full of vitality, and everyone's hearts and eyes were filled with joy.
When Fu'er saw her father and stepmother coming, she stepped forward to salute her, and finally leaned obediently by her aunt's side.On the contrary, since Dabao lost his parents, he was very close to his uncle. He asked about the family's new house and asked his uncle to furnish him with a study room. He would occasionally go back to live for a day.
Ding Laoer was delighted to hear that, he took his nephew and asked him what kind of desks and chairs, antique shelves and bookcases he wanted.
Although Fu'er met her stepmother yesterday, there were so many people that she never said anything.She was already sensible and still remembered her mother-in-law, Wang Shi, so she only secretly glanced at Dong Shi, but she didn't intend to get close.
Dong's face turned even redder at the sight of the eldest daughter, and she was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to do.He wanted to get close, but he didn't know what to do, but when he looked at Yu'er in Liu Niang's arms, a look of joy flashed in his eyes, and after thinking about it, he said, "Ma'am, can I hug Yu'er?"
"Of course I can," Ding Wei patted Fu'er on the back lightly, comforting the sensitive eldest niece, and then turned to tell Liu Niang, "Give Yu'er to the second uncle and wife."
Hearing this, Liu Niang stepped forward and handed the red swaddle in her arms to Dong Shi. Dong Shi's left arm was half-bent, and her right hand was folded together once, holding it very securely.
I don't know if it's because Yu'er was born with the Dong family, or if she remembered being taken care of by her that day, she actually giggled, which made everyone surprised, "Oh, Miss Yu'er doesn't laugh often!"
"That's right, I'm afraid Miss Yu'er likes mother."
Dong Shi listened to her ears, her expression became more gentle, and she slowly patted Yu'er with her hands, and she actually put Yu'er to sleep after a while.
Gu Nanny glanced at the master, then laughed, "It looks like the second uncle and wife have taken care of the children. Miss Yu'er is usually extremely difficult to put to sleep, but she is so easily patted to sleep by the second uncle and wife."
Dong's face turned red, and she replied softly, "My siblings are much younger than me, and my mother is busy with housework. I often help take care of my siblings, so I'm quite familiar with them."
Ding Wei looked down at the timid Fu'er, then at the sleeping Yu'er, and said after thinking for a while, "Sister-in-law also knows that I am heavy now, and it is really difficult to take care of so many children. If sister-in-law is free, she is not afraid of being tired." , why not take Yu'er back and take care of her."
"Really?" Dong raised her head in half-surprise and half-joy, and blurted out, "Your Majesty, can you trust me?"
As the old saying goes, if it is not your own flesh, it will never stick to your body.No matter whether it is a family of ordinary people or a wealthy family, there are countless stories about stepmothers abusing their children in front of them. It seems that all stepmothers are tigers.
Now that the elders of the Ding family have gone, only Mrs. Dong is taking care of the back house. If the child is sent back, in case there is a delay, Yu'er is so young, it is really unreasonable every day, and the earth is not working.
If Ding Wei loves her niece so much, she will never give her a chance to be wronged.
Therefore, even if Mrs. Dong had such thoughts, she did not dare to speak.Unexpectedly, Ding Wei took the initiative to hand over Yu'er. How could this not surprise her?
Ding Laoer also hesitated, and said vaguely, "Ms. Dong has just entered the house, and the back house has not been straightened out. Why don't you take Yu'er back in a few months?"
When Dong Shi heard this, her face darkened, and she was about to hand Yu'er to Liu Niang.Ding Wei glared at her second brother and stopped her, "I said I could trust my sister-in-law, but I did. You are usually busy outside, leaving only your sister-in-law alone at home, so you are so lonely, just let Yu'er be your sister-in-law's companion. Besides, I will let Liu Niang Follow me and continue to take care of Yu'er, if you can't tire my sister-in-law, don't stop me!"
Ding Laoer is such a shrewd person, he also remembered that what he said just now hurt Dong's heart, so he quickly remedied, "Since you said so, we will take Yu'er back. If you have someone, send a few more. Your sister-in-law has just taken over chores in the back house, so it's time to be busy!"
Sure enough, hearing that her husband felt sorry for her, Dong's face immediately lit up, and she responded repeatedly, "I'm not tired, I will take good care of Yu'er."
Danggui had a very winking look, leaving one to serve tea, and the rest gathered in the side hall to pack Yu'er's luggage.After lunch, Ding and his wife took Yu'er, Liu Niang, and a carriage full of luggage back to the Earl's Mansion.
Fu'er was very reluctant to part with her sister, and even wiped away tears.Ding Wei just hugged her niece and didn't say anything to comfort her.
Some pain can only be borne by oneself, and can never be shirked just because of age.Now that Yu'er is young, she doesn't know what her mother is at all, so she was sent back to Dong's side early, and after a long time, she has accumulated a mother-daughter bond.But Fu'er is really grown up. If she goes back, if there is a big issue and a small relationship, and a rift arises, she may become enemies with her stepmother.It's best to keep them in the palace, the farther away, the less conflicts.
The days passed like water, and the whole world seemed to have reached a certain agreement, both the harem and the capital were extremely peaceful.
Ding Wei made an excuse to send some food to the family, which made Nanny Gu and Dang Gui go to the Earl's Mansion a few times.I couldn't avoid looking for Liuniang to say a few words about myself, and then brought back the news that Mrs. Dong treated Yu'er just like her own life, never treated Yu'er badly, and loved her very much.
Even on the day they returned home, they hugged Yu'er together. Although the Dong family was a little caught off guard, they rarely treated Yu'er very kindly and never said a word. The nine-year-old Miss Dong Er even gave her favorite doll cat to Yu'er. .
Ding Wei felt relieved every time she heard it, and finally drew a few pictures and sent them to Yunjia Zhuangzi. In a few days, Aunt Li sewed out some funny and cute dolls.Each of the children in the family had one, and the most exquisite one, Peter Rabbit, was sent to the Dong family for Miss Dong Er.
Needless to say, the Dong family was naturally flattered, and they treated Yu'er like their own grandson in the future.
As soon as the time enters the twelfth lunar month, day and night seem to have grown legs, chasing each other and running fast.The entire palace has already started to be cleaned, ready to celebrate the New Year with lanterns and festoons.The tributes from all over the country were also delivered one after another, and Ding Wei received the gift list every day with a soft hand.
At the beginning, she was very interested in those silks, satins, jades, and various specialties, and she had to look at almost everything, but later she just asked Angelica to put them in the booklet, and finally threw them into the inner warehouse.
If you say that everything is going well, it is not.For some unknown reason, old man Wei had only rested for a few days after returning from the grassland. After looking at his apprentice and grandson, he ran away without a trace.He said he was going to visit an old friend, but he had been there for nearly two months, and no news came back.
Ding Wei remembers it badly, for a while she is afraid that the old man will be cold outside, and for a while she is afraid that the old man will not eat well.It was okay before, but now that the Ding family's parents are gone, she values the elderly more than anything else.Not to mention old man Wei, even Uncle Yun, Nanny Gu, and the old servants of Marquis Wu's mansion, she personally ordered them to go down and bought down bijia, cotton trousers, and fur boots, not wanting them to suffer a little bit.However, the closest master is nowhere to be seen.
