from widow to dame

Chapter 78

Mrs. Chen greeted Su Huiniang to sit down in Uncle Weiwu's mansion, and said affectionately: "But I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm really thinking about you."

After hearing this, Su Huiniang smiled and said: "If the godmother misses me, she can send someone to tell her, and my daughter will be there whenever she is called."

"Hahahaha..." Mrs. Chen laughed loudly after hearing this: "Look at this small mouth, you can really talk. Godmother knows that you are busy with Su Wen's marriage, how is it? Is there anything missing at home? Godmother is here There are some outlets in the capital, and you can buy some unusual things."

"Lao Ganniang, don't worry, there is nothing missing at home." Su Huiniang said with a smile: "You have found such a good daughter-in-law for our family, which is already the greatest credit."

"That's right, I didn't expect that your two families would really get married." Mrs. Chen said, "Run'e is a good child, and most of her family members are kind. She is a perfect match for Su Wen." .”

"That's the reason." Su Huiniang lightly tapped her palms, smiling very happily.

The two talked for a while, at this moment, someone opened the curtain and walked in, but it was Chen Yu's wife, Lin Xiuzhu.I saw that she was wearing a pink dress, with a gold collar inlaid with rubies around her neck. She didn't look like she was married, but she was like a girl in a boudoir, with an unstoppable air of escape all over her body. .

"So Miss Su is here!" Seeing Su Huiniang, Lin Xiuzhu called out with a smile: "My mother has been nagging you for days, but she finally came."

Su Huiniang stood up and greeted her with a smile.

All in all, this is the third time she met Lin Xiuzhu, and the first time was to break someone's "confession".Once was the wedding congratulations, and the next one is today.The two are actually not very familiar with each other, but Su Huiniang will naturally not be cold-hearted when the other party is willing to greet each other with a smile.

"I heard that Run'e is going to marry into your family..." Lin Xiuzhu said with a grin, "She and I were handkerchiefs together when we were young, she is quite a good person except that she is a little bored and a little stunned. "

Su Huiniang was taken aback when she heard the words, and raised her eyes to look carefully at Lin Xiuzhu in front of her, trying to figure out what the other party meant.

"Look at what you said, Run'e is safe, and I don't want you to be like a monkey." Mrs. Chen said with a smile beside her.

"Mother is really eccentric, everything is good for other people's daughters." Lin Xiuzhu opened her mouth and said, "If they are all so good, why don't you let them be your daughter-in-law!"

The smile on Mrs. Chen's face faded immediately.

Su Huiniang wondered if the "we" in "they" was alluding to herself, and said, "Of course it's because sister-in-law is the best."

Lin Xiuzhu immediately smiled when she heard this.Holding Su Huiniang's hand, he began to babble, first talking about Chang Run'e, and then unknowingly transferred to Chen Yu, the words were mostly complaints, why the husband was too busy with work and didn't have time to accompany him Why didn't he give a gift for his birthday... Su Huiniang was listening, feeling so embarrassed.I thought to myself, what are you talking about with me about the two of you, we haven't gotten to know each other well!
This Lin Xiuzhu looks quite elf by herself, how can she speak so freely?

Just as she got more and more off-topic, more and more obscene, and the more she talked, the face of Mrs. Chen over there became darker, a servant came to report: "Ms. Chang and Ms. Chang are here."

Su Huiniang immediately breathed a sigh of relief, got rid of Lin Xiuzhu's magic voice piercing through her head, stood up and looked at the door.

Sure enough, after a while, Chang's mother and daughter came together. The two families have already made an appointment, so they are not outsiders.Then Mrs. Chang is an elder, so Su Huiniang naturally did enough courtesy. Mrs. Chang is very satisfied with this, and she looks at Su Huiniang with a much closer look.

"Run'e, this is your future eldest aunt! Hurry up and curry favor, and I will give you small shoes to wear in the future." Lin Xiuzhu joked innocently.

But no one present thought it was funny.

Chang Rune's face flushed red, she was naturally ashamed and annoyed.

Mrs. Chen's face was even more ugly, she just felt that this daughter-in-law was really "stupid" to the extreme, and she lost face.

"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?" Su Huiniang also put away the smile on her face, and said in a neutral tone: "Could it be that in your heart, Huiniang is the kind of woman who will make things difficult for others and has a vicious mind?"

At this moment, Lin Xiuzhu also felt the "coldness" around her, and only then did she think of going to see Mrs. Chen, and her mother-in-law gave her a thick black face.With a trembling laugh, she couldn't help but said with some embarrassment: "Of course I didn't mean that, my sister misunderstood!"

"Okay, you go back first!" Mrs. Chen really couldn't stand her staying here and continuing to embarrass herself, so she hurriedly said: "Didn't you complain about your stomach ache yesterday? Go back and take care of it."

Lin Xiuzhu could tell at this moment that her mother-in-law was pushing her away, and her face immediately showed unwillingness, but because of her mother-in-law's majesty, she could only reluctantly say to Su Huiniang and Chang Run'e: "You guys come to my room later. Come on, let's chat."

"Xiuzhu!" Mrs. Chen's face became darker and darker.

Lin Xiuzhu pouted, twisted her waist and walked away.

"Xiuzhu is flexible, young and can't speak, so don't take it to heart."

"Look at what Godmother said...Madam is serious..."

Su Huiniang and Chang Run'e looked at each other and said with a smile.

Mrs. Chen and Chang were left to talk there, and they also chatted next to each other.

Because she was afraid that Chang Run'e would be thin-faced, Su Huiniang never mentioned anything related to marriage, but only talked about makeup, clothes, etc. that most girls pay attention to.Su Huiniang is comparable to an expert in this regard, but Chang Run's face is full of brilliance within the time of a cup of tea.

"It turns out that scraping the powder from the pearls and then floating them on the face will have whitening effects." Chang Run'e thought it was amazing: "However, pearls are expensive, so it is a bit extravagant to do so."

"I don't use it every day." Su Huiniang said with a smile: "Beads are good for the skin, just use some every once in a while. In addition, washing the face with goat's milk or milk mixed with flower petals can also have an effect."

"I can't complain that my sister's skin looks like water! It really has the ability to retain the face."

"Women's youth is short, and it is always good to take more care of it."

Chatting with Chang Run'e was very pleasant, and they both wanted to sell each other well, so after a while, the two became extremely affectionate.

At noon, everyone had a fast meal together.

In the near future, Chen Yu came back from the outside, saw a few people in the hall, was slightly taken aback, his eyes swept over Su Huiniang, and felt a slight pain in his heart.

Chen Yu greeted Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chang, and said a few words to Su Huiniang and the others. At this moment, another servant girl came to look for her, saying that the young lady ordered the young master to go back to the house.

Mrs. Chen's face darkened immediately, but Chen Yu didn't say anything, but judging from his slightly wrinkled brows, he might not be in a good mood either.After Chen Yu left, Mrs. Chang and the others also bid farewell, and Su Huiniang didn't stay too long, and led Mu Xiang back after sitting for a while.

It was already sunset when we got home, and Yan Hong was walking around impatiently in the yard. Seeing that Su Huiniang finally came back, he couldn't help coming over and complaining, "Where did Sister Hui go, she came back so late."

"I still have to ask you!" Seeing that the dead child dared to "complain first to the villain", Su Huiniang said with brows upside down, "Where did you go for the past half a month?"

Yan Hongzhen listened, and his face showed a look of dodge, but he just scratched his head and didn't speak.

Seeing that Su Huiniang's face was getting colder and colder, she couldn't help begging for forgiveness: "My good sister, Xiao Qi doesn't want to make up some excuses to lie to you, but it's hard to talk about it, can you stop asking?"

Su Huiniang knew Yan Hong's true temperament, and knew that the child would not hide anything from herself unless it was absolutely necessary.

But she still asked tentatively: "Is it related to the errand you received?"

Yan Hongzhen's face became more trembling, and Su Huiniang knew it well, and she let out a long sigh.

"Okay, since you don't want to talk, I won't ask. It's just that you can't do dangerous things, understand?"

"Hee hee, sister Hui, don't worry."

While talking, the two entered the house.

Su Huiniang went in first and changed into a regular dress, and then came out to have dinner with Mrs. Lin and the others.

After the meal, Yan Hongzhen said to her, "Sister Hui, I'm leaving the capital for a while."

Su Huiniang's heart skipped a beat.

"Where are you going? How long are you going?"

"One or two months at the fastest, four or five months at the slowest." Yan Hongzhen avoided talking about where he was going, and only said lightly.

Su Huiniang looked at him like this, lowered her eyes and finally stopped asking.That night, she personally prepared Yan Hongzhen's salute. In addition to the regular clothes, some medicines, especially trauma medicines, were prepared.

"This box is a box of ginseng pills specially made by someone. You take it with you, maybe it will come in handy."

After hearing this, Yan Hongzhen was moved and ashamed. He grabbed Su Huiniang's hand and said softly, "Sister Hui, I'm sorry."

"Fool, I'm sorry for what you said." Su Huiniang said: "Eagle always wants to fly when it grows up. I know I can't control you, but you have to promise that you will come back safely."

"Yeah!" Yan Hongzhen nodded heavily, and wrapped his arms around Su Huiniang's waist, he twisted twice like a child: "Xiaoqi will live up to his expectations, and he will definitely stand out."

Su Huiniang thought to herself, if possible, I would rather you not go out and vote for someone.Just be a kid like you used to be, okay?
