Chapter 741
Yan Wenzhen's entry into the palace is a good thing for Wei Yiyi. There are fewer people in the family between the mother and the child, and the relationship between the mother and the child has improved a lot.

Wei Yiyi also knew that some things could not be rushed, so she didn't make any arrangements for her son's marriage in the past few months, but Shao Juncong's reputation in the imperial capital was too great, he was young and talented, had a good background, and was highly regarded by the emperor , How many families with girls of the right age are staring at him.

Not to mention those whose family status is lower than that of General Hussar's Mansion, and those whose family status is comparable or even higher, those who want to marry their daughters to Shao Juncong, those two slaps can't be counted.

Summer goes and autumn comes, and it's Mid-Autumn Festival again.The courteous exchanges between the various schools and houses in the imperial capital are naturally much more lively than usual.

There are not many things about favors and courtesies in General Hussar's Mansion. Wei Yiyi is a bold person, and she doesn't want to talk about trivial matters at home. Sometimes she throws them to her daughter Shao Yanran, and sometimes to the housekeeper at home. In all, ten things She may not be able to take care of one or two things.

It happened that the housekeeper's wife of Mr. Tan's house, the servant of the Ministry of War, came to give the Mid-Autumn Festival gift. Wei Yiyi was about to go out, so she bumped into him in the yard of the meeting hall in front.

"My servant greets the Great Princess." The housekeeper's wife of the Minister of War's family stepped forward to salute Wei Yiyi.

"En." Wei Yiyi was in a good mood, so she stopped and glanced at the two housekeepers, and asked, "Are you from that lord's house?"

"Back to the princess, the servants are from the family of Mr. Tan, the servant of the Ministry of war. They came here to give the princess a mid-autumn gift at the order of our wife."

"Well, you have worked hard." Wei Yiyi nodded, and said to the butler next to him, "Go to the accountant and pay them a double reward for tea."

"Thank you, princess." The two housekeepers saluted again.

"Yes." Wei Yiyi nodded, then walked out.

The leader of the two stewardesses chased after two steps forward, Fushen said: "Princess, please stay, when the servant came, our wife told me a few words, saying that I am honored to see the princess, Be sure to tell the princess."

"Oh?" Wei Yiyi stopped in her tracks and looked at the housekeeper in surprise, "Is there anything your wife wants to tell me?"

The housekeeper lady took out a purple-red gold-painted post from her bosom and offered it with both hands, and said with a blessing: "Five days later, it will be the birthday of our second girl. Bothering the princess, but because our lord was still serving in the army when our wife was pregnant with the second girl, our wife was lucky to live with the princess for a while, and the princess was also pregnant at that time The eldest girl in the mansion, so the two of them are destined. Now more than ten years have passed, our wife has always remembered the favor of the princess Fuzhao that day, so I want to invite the princess to the mansion to reminisce, but I don’t know the princess Is the lord free? That's why I told the slaves, if I see the big princess, I will give you this."

Wei Yiyi nodded slowly, remembering the past, a smile appeared on her originally indifferent face: "You are right, your second girl is two months older than mine, and this year is her 15th birthday, so she should Have a good time celebrating."

"It turns out that the princess still remembers everything." The housekeeper said with a smile.

"Although it's an old story, at that time I was with your wife on the local frontier. Although we were not on the battlefield, we shared joys and sorrows. Since your wife invited me, I must go. You go back and talk to your wife Say it."

"Yes. The slave will definitely bring the words." The housekeeper's wife hurriedly responded.

Wei Yiyi nodded and walked out.

Five days later, Wei Yiyi took her daughter Shao Yanran to the banquet, Mrs. Tan brought her daughter-in-law to the second door, took their mother and daughter in, and warmly entertained them.

Tan Xiuyu, the second daughter of the Tan family, held a very lively 15th birthday banquet. Mrs. Tan invited wives who had contacts with the family, and held a full eight-table banquet.Wei Yiyi has the title of princess, and is regarded as a distinguished person among these ladies. When everyone sees her, they must come forward to salute and greet her with a toast.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, and everyone taking turns toasting each other, some people began to get together in twos and threes to gossip.At this time, someone came up to please Wei Yiyi and toasted frequently. Mrs. Tan was afraid that Wei Yiyi would be upset, so she ordered her daughter-in-law to sit with her, and she took her second daughter to accompany Wei Yiyi to gossiping in the small flower hall next to her.

Wei Yiyi smiled and sighed: "Xiuyu's child is so fresh now, I remember when I was young, this child was always sick and his hair was yellow."

"Isn't it thanks to Mrs. Ninghou's wonderful hand and rejuvenation? If there is no old lady, this girl's life may not be saved. So I often tell her that no one can forget the old lady's kindness in this life." Madam Tan laughed.

"If our old lady hears your words, she will definitely be unhappy." Wei Yiyi laughed.

"I know that the old lady does not want to repay people's lives, but this kindness is as deep as the ocean, but we dare not forget it." Madam Tan said, took the tea cup from her daughter and handed it to Wei Yiyi, and said to Wei Yiyi The daughter said: "Let us adults talk, you children, don't be stuck here. In the early morning they told me that the autumn hibiscus in the back is blooming, and the half-red and half-white ones are very beautiful. You can go out for a walk with Miss Yanran."

Xiuyu hurriedly agreed, took Shao Yanran's hand and went out with a smile.Seeing the two Miaoman figures disappearing behind the bead curtain, Wei Yiyi put the teacup on the small high table beside her, looked at Mrs. Tan, and said, "You know my temper, I don't like beating around the bush the most, what's the matter?" Just say it straight."

"The princess is a happy person, so naturally I can't beat around the bush." ​​Mrs. Tan said with a smile, "Today, I would like to condescend you to come to the humble house. The main reason is to invite you to see our Xiuyu. How about it?"

"Xiuyu? Very good." Wei Yiyi nodded.

"Then, are you satisfied with this child?" Mrs. Tan asked again.

"You're beating around the bush again." Wei Yiyi glared at Mrs. Tan.

Mrs. Tan patted the back of Wei Yiyi's hand with a smile, and said with a smile, "I'm asking, are you satisfied with Xiuyu being your daughter-in-law?"

"Ah!" Wei Yiyi suddenly realized, and then smiled: "Satisfied! I like this child very much. He is gentle, virtuous, and filial. It is more than enough for my bastard son!"

"Is this your truth?" Madam Tan asked with a smile.

"Of course." Wei Yiyi nodded, and then sighed in embarrassment, "However, there is one thing that I am very worried about."

"What's the matter?" Madam Tan asked.

"If this is another girl's family, I won't talk about it. But Xiuyu is a good child, and I have a relationship with me. To put it bluntly, I don't treat her as an outsider. Except for Yanran and Xiyue, These little girls before me are her."
