Chapter 11
Zhu said with a smile, "My mother-in-law kept my sister-in-law because she wanted to stay at home and love her for a few more years."

"Hey, you think so, but others don't think so. You're ashamed to death with that hasty manner." Anping put down the tea bowl, and wiped the corners of his mouth with a brocade handkerchief.Her voice was soft and sweet, and she didn't look at people. She thought the words came from the girl's mouth.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were acting, Xie Xianer pretended to be stupid, twisted and twisted an old handkerchief in her hand, and looked down at the ground.The blankets on the ground should have come from the Western Regions, and they are quite exotic.

Seeing Xie Xian'er twisting the handkerchief foolishly, Anping lost interest in Niu playing the piano.Then she directly said to Xie Xian'er, "Fourth girl,"

Xie Xian'er hastily raised her head and agreed nonchalantly.

Anping continued, "Ma Shiro is not someone who can climb high, he is a fairy figure worthy of princesses and princesses. How many daughters of the Duke's family want to marry him, but no one agrees, you Family background..." She gave a dry laugh, and said again, "If you were to be his concubine, our family would not be able to lose this person. Your father gave up his old face and begged Mr. Ma for a long time before he let go. Erlang from his family begged to marry you. Ma’s Erlang’s daughter-in-law died of illness two years ago, leaving behind a three-year-old son. Otherwise, such a good marriage would not have fallen on your head. Although he is a widower, he is talented. There is no choice in appearance, and he is a seventh-rank officer in the Ministry of War... This is a good marriage that can't be found even with a lantern."

After Anping talked so much, seeing Xie Xian'er still acting like an idiot, she was a little unhappy, "Si girl, it seems that you are not satisfied with this marriage? Hmph, no matter whether you are satisfied or not, it is the order of your parents. , according to the matchmaker, this marriage is settled."

Xie Xian'er quickly stood up and expressed her opinion, "I'm not dissatisfied. My daughter is ashamed, and made Lord Hou and his wife worry about it."

"It's good if you're satisfied, it's not in vain that the Marquis and I have broken your heart." After Anping finished speaking, he waved again, and the mother Liu who had given Xie Xian'er the clothes and taught the rules came out from behind her, and Anping said again , "You are still young, and there are some things that you can't take care of. This Liu Nanny will follow you to the Ma's house in the future, and help you manage the dowry and chores in the yard."

Liu Nanny knelt down and kowtowed to Xie Xian'er, "This old servant has seen the girl."

Is this woman Anping's housekeeper and spy by her side?Add in the account of Nanny Zhou, and we will slowly calculate it together in the future.Xie Xian'er said respectfully, "Mommy, please get up, I'm young and ignorant, so Mommy will have to worry more about it in the future."

Anping added, "I'm tired too, the eldest daughter-in-law should explain the remaining things to her clearly." Then he got up to tease the green parrot in front of the window.

Mrs. Zhu went on to say, "...the dowry is being prepared, and the dowry list will be handed over to you in a few days. It's too late to make your wedding dress, hijab, and bedding, so I asked the master from the embroidery shop outside to help. Do it. I will marry you a house, that is, your nanny Zhou and the whole family, including the Zhuangzi. The girl who is serving you now and the two rough envoys are also with you. These people are not enough I will buy a few more girls in these two days, and I will send them to you in a few days after training..."

"...the Ma family has only two families. The relationship is simple and easy to get along with. Grandpa Ma is not in good health, and Mrs. Tai doesn't care about things. The main thing is that Mrs. Guogong is in charge of the house. The eldest house has three sons, Shiziye, Erlang, and Shilang Erfang has two sons, Saburo and Goro..."

Mrs. Zhu said a lot of miscellaneous things, but what made Xie Xian'er happiest was that Aunt Zhou's family followed her to Ma's house.

Finally, Mrs. Zhu asked Grandma Liu to get the satin and embroidery thread, "You have to do the little things to honor the elders by yourself, and it is not easy for others to do it for you. There are also meeting gifts for the younger generations and rewards for the servants. Let Mother Liu lead the servants to do it."

After thanking Anping and Mrs. Zhu, Xie Xian'er took Madam Liu out of the main courtyard.The two split into two groups, Madam Liu went to the sewing room to get the satin, and Xie Xianer went back to Luoxia Courtyard.

As soon as I passed a small stone arch bridge, there was a rustling sound from a few poles of green bamboo beside the bridge, and the bamboo leaves trembled.Xie Xian'er was taken aback, it couldn't be a snake, she was most afraid of that thing since she was a child.

Then, the thing seemed to jump to the peony garden next to it, and there was another rattling sound from the garden.A woman in charge of flowers ran over and scolded, "I don't know where the wild cat came from, and it came here to rape flowers again. If the old woman catches it, it will kill the stewed cat soup."

Cat?Xie Xian'er thought of Tai Chi that had been lost for a day and a night.Then he asked, "Ma'am, have you seen what that cat looks like?"

This woman didn't know Xie Xian'er, and seeing that the fabric of the clothes she was wearing was not good, and they were not old, she thought they were poor relatives of some lady's grandma in the house.

He said, "I see, this cat looks really strange. Its fur is white, smooth and smooth, and there is no stray hair. Its face is a yin and yang face, half as white as snow and half as black as carbon. The cat moved very nimbly, and I asked two boys to help catch it yesterday, but they failed to catch it. Ouch, it not only ruined the peony garden here, but also overturned the rose trellis over there."

Xie Xian'er was overjoyed when she heard this. Isn't this just Tai Chi.She smiled shyly at the woman in charge of flowers, "Nurse, I'm sorry, that's my cat, and it ran out while I wasn't looking."

Then, he yelled towards the most shaking place in the middle of the peony orchard, "Tai Chi, come out soon, I have specially reserved delicious duck liver for you."

A few meows came from the middle of the garden, and the peonies shook even more.Xie Xian'er continued to coax, "Hey, come out, let's go home."

Seeing the peony branches and leaves trembling all the way from the middle of the peony garden to the side where Xie Xianer was standing, the old woman cursed distressedly, "Damn you, my flower."

Then a cat jumped out of it, it was Tai Chi.It looked at Xie Xian'er vigilantly, but did not come forward.

Could it be that it saw that it was not the original Xie Xian'er?As long as you have kindness towards it, it should feel it.Xie Xian'er smiled and said, "Tai Chi, I miss you so much, let's go back to Luoxia Courtyard."

Xie Xian'er took a few steps forward, and Tai Chi took a few steps back, keeping a certain distance from her.

At this time, the light cat in the stomach cried out, "Meow, meow, meow..." The sound was still trembling slightly, it should be extremely excited.

Tai Chi seemed to have heard the cry, stopped suddenly, and also called a few times.Xie Xian'er took the opportunity to step forward and hug it.

The woman heard the words "Luoxia Courtyard", and then she knew that the person in front of her was the fourth girl, Xie Xian'er.He was so angry that he really hated people, even the cats he raised.

So he said angrily, "Please take good care of your cat in the future, girl, and don't let it out to cause trouble. If you trample on these flowers, it's just us slaves who suffer. If you offend the master and nobles, then the girl will be fine." I couldn't eat and walked away."

Tai Chi did get into trouble, Xie Nai'er said to the woman apologetically, "I'm sorry, I will definitely take care of it in the future."

Hurrying back to the Luoxia Courtyard, she saw that the girl Luzhi had returned and was giving water to Nanny Zhou.

Xie Xian'er instructed Lu Zhi, "Go and boil some water on the stove, I want to give Tai Chi a bath."

Luzhi is 12 years old, because his mother and father are honest people and they have no face in the mansion, so they are assigned here.Her injury is still not healed, and she walks with a limp.She should still have some resentment towards Xie Xian'er, so she went to the kitchen expressionlessly.

Although this green branch is usually not very respectful to Xie Xian'er, it is not like other girls and women who have bullied and abused Xie Xian'er.Therefore, she is an object that can be won over.

Xie Xian'er saw that Luzhi had gone out, so she whispered to Nanny Zhou about her engagement, and about their family and Zhuangzi giving her a dowry at the same time.

After hearing this, Nanny Zhou chanted to the Buddha, and said that God had opened her eyes.
