Daughter Raiders

Chapter 39 Spring Banquet
A group of women's relatives headed by the old lady arrived at the residence of the fourth old master, and it was just a moment later.

All the people entered the gate of the ceremony, and the fourth old lady came out to greet her personally, and said with a smile that the second old lady and the third old lady had arrived, and they were looking forward to the elder sister-in-law coming quickly, "On the sixth day of the sixth day, at the third brother's house, the elder sister-in-law said The story has only been told halfway, and those two are very anxious, wanting to hear what's going to happen next."

The old lady didn't show it on the face, but she couldn't help sneering in her heart.

Ever since she took Tao Ran to Pine Age Hall, she couldn't help recalling the events of Tao Ran's birth, and the more she thought about it, the more doubts in her heart became heavier.

No matter how much a family like Su's mansion hopes for a male heir, it won't make a girl's birth appear as if she is about to lose her fortune, and make all the servants gossip about it? !
Could it be that someone with a heart in the past provoked the third daughter-in-law, Yu Shi, and bought some gossips, so as to make the Su family restless?
The old lady then sent Shen's mother to search carefully for useful details, and the matter was indeed not easy.

It is a huge loophole to only say that the doctor who diagnosed Yu's pulse and found out that she was pregnant with a boy.It's just because since the year when Old Master Su joined the Ministry of War as a servant, when there were sick patients in the family and pregnant women, they always invited the imperial doctor to go. How could ordinary doctors get into the eyes of the Su family?

The doctor was recommended to Yu Shi by the second old lady, she said that the doctor is a very famous expert in gynecology, and his greatest ability is that he can diagnose a man and a woman with a fetus at four months old...

And the Taoist woman who showed Yu the feng shui of her residence later seemed to be inextricably linked with the second old lady.If it weren't for the Taoist woman's eloquent tongue, Yu would not have taken the opportunity to play tricks, crying and shouting to change yards with the eldest lady, but instead made the old lady fall backwards in anger, and became ill for more than a month.

"I heard from the fourth sister-in-law that you two are still thinking about the ending of the story a few days ago? Do you need to tell the story later?" Mrs. Su smiled: "No matter what the story is, the ending is always the same. It means that good and evil will be rewarded in the end, it’s not that if you don’t repay, the time has not yet come.”

Hearing that the elder sister-in-law has arrived, the second old lady and the third old lady came out from the big flower hall to welcome them, who would have thought that before they stepped forward to salute, the third old lady was inevitably a little surprised when they heard what the old lady said, but the second old lady just I was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and catered to me and said, what the sister-in-law said is exactly, we are the ones who are acting.

Tao Ran, who was following the old lady's hand, naturally sensed the mystery in her grandmother's words, so she lowered her head obediently, and only let go of her grandmother's hand when everyone entered the flower hall one after another when she heard nothing. , went to stand with the sisters, and greeted the elders one after another.

The girls from the four old masters' homes gathered together, there were more than [-] girls, except for a few who were too young and too weak, they were all gathered now.Hearing the delicate and crisp voices of the girls, Mrs. Su's unhappiness dissipated in an instant. She smiled and said that they were all good boys, and then teased the four old ladies: "The family banquets a few days ago were not as full as today's." Smash, if you can't make this banquet a flower today, I'm sorry for the children to support you."

The fourth old lady smiled and pointed to the twenty or so girls: "I was afraid that my sister-in-law would say that. Fortunately, these children are blocking me. Dare my sister-in-law say that there are no flowers in today's family banquet? Isn't that right?" Are they all little flower bones?"

The girls immediately started chirping and giggling coquettishly, and Tao Ran also followed silly.I could hear Yan Ran beside me muttering softly: "Why are you laughing, what's so funny, it's so boring."

Fortunately, Yan Ran's voice was not loud, and only Tao Ran and An Ran could hear her.Afterwards, the girls' respective adoptive mothers and maidservants came up to take care of them, and led the group of girls to the side hall, leaving only a dozen or so sisters-in-law headed by Mrs. Su to accompany the old lady in the main hall. Madam talk.

In front of the old wives and their mothers, the girls were all masters who dared to laugh, and when they arrived at the territory that belonged only to them, they became more and more lively. A girl about her age came over to pull her: "Sister Tao, let's play together."

Tao Ran looked up at An Ran.The second sister, Xiran, is always followed by Xiaoran, Anran's concubine, Yueran, is still young, and if she doesn't come together today, if she runs away with her cousins, and Anran and Yanran don't deal with each other, wouldn't it be lonely and uncomfortable.

Yan Ran saw this scene in her eyes, and was extremely angry in her heart.

She has never been able to play with the girls of the old man's family, just because those children are really naive. If she was asked to choose, she would rather be with Xiran in peace, even if Anran never forgets to fight with her .

Now the clan sisters are going to play with Sister Tao, but Sister Tao only looks at An Ran.This is to tell everyone that her direct sister is not as important as An Ran in Sister Tao's heart? !
Unexpectedly, before Yanran could attack, Anran had already grabbed Tao Ran's hand with a smile, and ran away with the four or five clan sisters. Embarrassed, he felt restless for a while.

The second old lady has a granddaughter of a direct relative, who ranks fourth in the second room. She is 11 years old and her name is Xiuran. Ever since she entered this side hall, she has been secretly watching the girls in the big room; now seeing Yanran like this, Then he approached with a smile: "Sister Yan seems unhappy?"

Yanran was holding her breath, when she saw Xiuran coming to talk to her, she immediately complained: "It's not my sister Tao..."

It's a pity that when she turned her head, Yan Ran was frightened by Xi Ran's gaze. While hurriedly swallowing the second half of the sentence, she also remembered what the old lady told her a few days ago, saying that it was inevitable that each family would move around during the first month. Tell the girls to keep their mouths shut, and the family is at home, so don't make any little disputes outside.

If the old lady hadn't explained this, she wouldn't have cared about Xiran's warnings.The second uncle is just a concubine, and soon he will leave the capital to take a job abroad, does she need to take this little second wife seriously!

Seeing that the sisters didn't get along with each other, Xiuran was a little disappointed, so she smiled and talked to Xiran again: "I heard that sister Xi's father is going to take up a post in Chengdu, Sichuan? What about Xiran?" Will my sister go with me?"

"I heard that the southwestern miasma is very serious and mosquitoes are raging. It's better for sister Xi not to go; besides, sister Xi is at this age," Xiuran laughed for a while, seeing that Xiran's complexion became more and more ugly, she continued just now: "If you go to the southwest... don't accidentally delay the big event."
