"The two brothers are out together again!" Mrs. Tai was disappointed.

"Eleven Niang said with a smile:" some of the usual entertainment Marquis want to go, do not want to go. However, as the close of this year, the feudal officials from all over the country came back to Beijing in advance to greet the emperor, but the Marquis could not be ignored. "

Mrs. Tai nodded: "I don't know. It's just that the house is busy these days, and I'm reluctant to part with it. "

Eleven Niang says with a smile: "wait until next year early summer when good."

In the spring, the fengjiang officials from all over the country would go back to Beijing to report their duties. With Xu Lingyi's status, there would be more social intercourse.

"By the beginning of next summer, when the weather gets warmer, we will go to more places. Who wants him to accompany him? " Too madam pretends to do not care to smile, three madams came.

She was dressed in a bright red variety of makeup, flower mound, peony bun, red gold and jade headband, painted eyebrows, powdered, and rouge, dressed ceremoniously and luxuriantly.

It seems that the couple had a fight Only if you want to hide something, you will pay special attention to it It can't be beaten

Mrs. Tai said with a smile, "where did this go?"

Three madams smile Yingying ground came forward to too madam line of ceremony, way: "the weather is cold, stay at home have nothing to do, straighten the box cage." Then he looked down at his clothes and said, "I didn't expect that there was such a beautiful mound, so I took it out and put it on to see you. What's the matter

Mrs. Tai looked up and down: "good-looking. It's good to wear such bright clothes for the Chinese New Year

"Really!" The third lady said with a smile, "I'll go back and put it on. I'll take it out for the new year."

Too Madame pointed to three madams and looked back at the eleven Niang standing behind him with a smile: "you see, take the opportunity to complain to me and ask for new clothes to wear!"

Eleven Niang says with a smile: "Niang storehouse does not know how many good things are put in. Why don't you take the opportunity to reward us? We wear the clothes you admire for the new year, and we have the honor to visit our relatives. " He pursed his lips and laughed.

Old people, and have this ability, who do not want to be a loose money boy to attract people like.

Too madam ha ha laughs, to side Du mother way: "really can't build cavity."

"That's your good thing too. It makes young people envious." Du mother's attitude is not humble and arrogant to flatter too Madame, let a person listen to very comfortable.

Mrs. Tai was really happy and told Wei Zi, "tomorrow I'll open the storehouse and bring out some new styles of makeup flowers and carved silk that are appreciated in the palace for them to choose." Another way, "call Danyang. Leave some for Yizhen

"Oh Three madams are full of surprise, but slightly exaggerate a little, "take care of your mother's blessing, this can be good!"

Eleven Niang smile: "Niang heartache can be too late!"

Mrs. Tai just laughs.

Mother Du said, "our wife has a lot of things, as long as you have the strength to move away."

The third lady then turned to eleven Niang and said with a smile, "this is a good rush. We have to eat more bowls of rice."

It made the room laugh.

At the same time, Xu Siqin's three brothers arrived. They asked Ann and asked them what they were laughing at. Du's mother learned what she had just said. Xu Sijian immediately said, "I want to make new clothes, too."

The third lady stretched out her slender fingers and pointed her little son's forehead: "when am I short of your food and clothing?"

Xu Sijian hemmed and hawed.

Seeing this, Xu said with a smile: "there is a mountain outside the mountain. Seeing grandmother's things, who is not rare. I want to. It's just that I'm too old to speak. "

Tease too madam full face is smile: "be, be. Otherwise, how could your mother concentrate on my things? "

Zhun elder brother's son listened to the side of the tearful cry: "I also rare grandmother's thing!"

The atmosphere was very lively.

After dinner, Mrs. Tai still tells her to send Xu Si Qin and Xu Si Yu out of the house. Eleven Niang and three madams, Xu Si Jian wait for the nurse to take the Zhen elder sister and Zhun elder brother son to rest, and then she leaves too madam to go out.

Too old madam, sleep less and less. When Xu Shi closed the door, he didn't go to sleep immediately. He often chatted with Du's mother, Wei Zi and Yao Huang, and played leaf cards. Today is no exception, just let all the servants in the room go to sleep, leaving only mother Du alone.

"Ask." Mrs. Tai's kindness and kindness just now turned into shrewd and capable, "who else, besides the fourth, participated in the inspection of the city? Ask manager Bai Da again, who did the old three settle accounts with last night? Ask the boy around the third, when did fan Weigang and general fan come back? Where do you listen to the play? What kind of play are you listening to? When did the two masters split hands with Lord fan? When did you go back to the house? "

Mother Du also changed her smile and answered "yes".

At the beginning of the next day, Madame Tai had already cleaned her hands and sat in the warm Pavilion in the east of the Buddha Hall to copy the Heart Sutra.

Mother Du came in quietly.Too madam is sitting in a critical position, pen walks you long, eyelid also did not lift.

"How?"

When mother Du thought of the news, Ren Shicheng could not help but pause before she began to speak: "people from the governor's office of the Fifth Army said that no one had been arranged to patrol the city. Chief manager Bai said that the third master had been in the Secretary's room the night before yesterday. The boy next to the Third Master said that fan Zongbing came back the day before yesterday and invited the Marquis to attend the opera. The Marquis and the Third Master arrived at the third quarter of Youzheng, left at the beginning of Xu, and returned to the mansion at a quarter after Hai. " She tried to tell everything she heard simply and without emotion, but her voice fell down involuntarily.

Mrs. Tai didn't seem to hear it. Until she received the last stroke, she looked up at mother Du: "mount this word and give it to the third."

Mother Du bowed down respectfully and said "yes" respectfully.

Mrs. Tai put out her hand.

Mother Du helped Mrs. Tai up.

Mrs. Tai went to the main hall of the Buddha Hall, kowtowed three heads to the Avalokitesvara, put on three notes of incense, got up and went to the warm pavilion with mother Du.

"What did the third daughter-in-law do last night?" It's very quiet.

Mrs. Du had been with Mrs. Tai for more than 40 years. She had known her temper for a long time. Before she came, she inquired all the questions she might ask. She had a draft in her heart, so she went back and forth. Therefore, this matter too madam although did not let Du mother inquire, Du mother actually already quietly asked. Now too madam asks, answer also not difficult.

"It's said that she has been making sewing and waiting for the third master to go back. I didn't go to bed until later

"And the fourth daughter-in-law?"

"Tell the mother on duty and aunt Qiao's side to wait for the marquis. As in the past, I stopped at the beginning of the Hai Festival

Mrs. Tai showed a thoughtful expression.

"Don't you know? Or calm down? "

"I don't know." Du's mother knew the importance of the incident and claimed to be humble. "However, Wanxiang went to see the fourth lady a few days ago, and the Marquis went to inspect the city in the evening. This morning, the Marquis did not go directly to the court as usual. Instead, he went to the fourth lady's house and had breakfast there. It is said that all the attendants in the room have retired at breakfast. " After saying that, he thought about it and whispered, "there are all the people trained by mother Tao. You can only inquire about it. No matter how much, you can't find out."

"How about Mrs. Tao

"Not long after entering the door, the white manager of the outer courtyard pointed to the horse keeper of the stable to the ugly son's wife to carry things for the fourth lady. Before long, Xiang's granddaughter, known as Xiao Fangfei, was arranged to sweep the floor in the back garden. A few days later, he was promoted to a second class because of the lack of servant girls who were married out. Now he has a monthly example of 500 Wen. She didn't know how grateful she was. When she met people, she said that the four ladies were good and made meat cakes for her. The amber in front of the fourth lady often comes and goes. It's very intimate to make shoes and socks for amber. "

Too madam mouth corner cocked up: "she pour quite clever."

Mother Du couldn't tell if she was praising the fourth lady or the old lady. She had to smile vaguely and say "yes".

Mrs. Tai sat back in the warm Pavilion and picked up a copy of the Diamond Sutra on her desk

Shi Niang sat on the Kang near the window to do sewing. The moon white silk curtain hanging on the window was scooped with a silver spoon, and the scenery outside the window was at a glance. The white snow reflected the light of Wei Lan, shining on her, sketching a slender but beautiful outline like a tough willow.

Green cloud crept past, but found that her needle and thread did not know when to stop, staring at the half embroidered camellia on the embroidery shed, dazed.

She hesitated for a long time, or whispered: "madam, the people in the greenhouse have come to change flowers."

Eleven Niang "Oh" a, sat up straight body, eyes also returned to the past smart, showing a warm smile: "let them in!"

The green cloud whispered "yes". After a while, he brought two women in to salute the eleven Niang, and replaced the withering Camellia in the room with half blooming and half budding wax plum flowers.

There was a faint fragrance in the room.

Eleven Niang took a deep breath and asked the woman, "can there be daffodils?"

The woman said with a smile, "of course there are! But it hasn't sprouted yet. If my wife wants to display daffodils, I'll tell sister-in-law Ji ting that they will be delivered in two days. "

In the greenhouse, we should pay attention to half play and half wait for flowers. Those who do not have bracts can't come in.

Eleven Niang said with a smile: "no harm, let her send me some pots. It's the same with taking care of myself. "

The woman immediately responded, and another woman placed holly trees in the corner of the wall, and placed bamboo and Aloe on the flower table.

Amber came in, holding a blue and white goblet with Hibiscus in his hand.

Eleven Niang looked at the lotus bowl mouth is big, fiery red open bright, let people look at a warm heart, dotted with winter bamboo plants full of room is very happy. He looked around with a smile, and then pointed to the Kang window behind him: "put it here!"Amber went up to the Kang and placed the goblet on the Kang window behind Shiniang, and said in a low voice, "madam, you've got a good guess.
