"Good!" Mrs. Tai said happily, "Huguang is a land of fish and rice, the thoroughfare of nine provinces in Wuchang Prefecture. This is a good place!"

Mrs. Xiang said modestly, "all thanks to the emperor."

Mrs. Tai smiles.

Mrs. Xiang talked about the sale of the house: "it's all ancestral property. There are about ten places to come. 4、 Fifty years old house. Although the place is good, the house is in disrepair for a long time. Even if it is put to the end of the year, it will only buy a hundred taels of silver. " She said with a smile and looked at the second lady, "this time I come, I also want to discuss with my aunt. Where to stay? Where do you sell them? "

Listening to that tone, he attached great importance to the second lady's opinion. But after all, the second lady is a married aunt and a household chore. It is not appropriate to discuss it in front of his wife.

Eleven Niang raised her eyelids and looked at the second lady.

Then she saw a sharp flash in her eyes. Then she showed a smile and said, "I don't understand these. If my sister-in-law is afraid that the price will not sell well, the steward the Marquis gave to me is a smart man. Why don't I send him home tomorrow? If your sister-in-law doesn't think she can make up her mind, just ask him. " After saying that, he told the servant girl beside him to tie incense, "see if the words of uncle and Marquis are are finished. Mrs. Tai hasn't seen Yijia for several years, so she should come and say hello to Mrs. Tai! " I don't want to talk more.

The fragrance went away.

Too Madame also felt the second Madame's displeasure, with a smile echoed the second lady's words: "old, like the lively side. I'd like to meet Yijia, too. I remember when I saw you last time, it was so high... " Mrs. Tai raised her hand and said, "it should be a big and small guy now?"

Mrs. Xiang said with a smile, "she's taller than me!"

Just then, a servant girl said, "Madam Tai, here comes the second young master, the fourth young master, the fifth young master and the eldest young lady!"

"Let them in!" Mrs. Tai said to Mrs. Xiang with a smile on her face, "see my grandchildren, too." Said, looked at the three young ladies of the Xiang family, "yesterday they just moved, today with the husband asked for a day off, rest at home."

The voice did not fall, Xu Siyu a few people came in.

Mrs. Xiang looked at Xu Siyu: "is this Yu elder brother? Although I haven't seen you for a few years, I still look like a child. " Then he looked at Zhun elder brother and said with a smile, "that's still in my arms."

"Not at all!" Mrs. Tai said with a smile. Eleven Niang introduced Mrs. Xiang to the children.

Mrs. Xiang gave the children a jade pendant.

The children saluted and said thanks. Mrs. Xiang asked three Miss Xiang to come and salute Xu Siyu. Mr. Xiang's parents and son came to greet Mrs. Tai.

For a moment, the adults were forced to talk about their wealth, but the children had their own ways.

The eldest and the second young ladies of the Xiang family looked at each other in a dignified manner. The eyes of Miss Xiang's third lady drifted past Xu Siyu, who was sitting opposite her. Xu Siyu sat there with his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart, and his posture was like a loose one. Next to the Zhen sister and Zhun elder brother listen to the adults seriously. But the elder son of Xiang family, who was sitting opposite them, had been looking at her with the rest of the corner of his eye. Only a little Xu Sijie, sitting there absorbed in sugar, very happy.

after lunch, Mrs. Xiang took the children to the second lady's, and the eleventh Niang was waiting for Mrs. Tai to rest. She was about to return to her yard when amber came over: "abbess Jining has sent you some peace charms. Seeing that you were not at home, I turned around in the yard. It is said that apricot trees should not be planted beside waterside pavilions, but locust trees should be planted. The goldfish you raise should not be placed on the windowsill near the window Kang, but in the southeast corner of the hall I heard that the fifth lady asked her to do a ritual for one hundred Liang silver. I didn't dare to answer. I said I would wait until you came back. "

Eleven Niang pondered: "do as the Romans do. It's impossible to ignore. But we can't let her easily. Be careful these days. Don't let us meet. But you can't offend her. "

Amber should be there.

Eleven Niang simply took the children to rest in Zhunge's room, and when too madam woke up, she accompanied her to play leaf cards, which made her laugh.

At dusk, mother Du went to Shaohua hospital to invite the second lady and the Xiang family to come and have dinner. Mrs. Tai took the opportunity to invite Mrs. Xiang to have dinner with her children at chuilon waterside pavilion tomorrow The fourth old man has a whole yard and temporarily moved to chuilon waterside pavilion for a few days. I thought that there had been no one to live there for several years, and I wanted to help them get busy. In addition to the family, there are Luo's uncles and grandmothers. None of them are outsiders. Then you will come. "

Mrs. Xiang showed a thoughtful expression. The second lady on one side looked at it and said, "Wuchang is a long way from here. I don't know when I can see it. My sister-in-law will bring Yijia and them to come to the party tomorrow

Listening to her uncle's opening, Mrs. Xiang no longer hesitated, and said with a smile, "I'll bring my children to quarrel with you and the fourth lady tomorrow, because of Mrs. Tai's affection." Say, toward 11 Niang smile nodded, attitude is very friendly.

"It's too late to welcome you. There's no word for" noisy " Eleven Niang politely said a few words.

In addition to Xu Siyu, the children showed some joy.After seeing off the guests and returning to the house, Xu Lingyi also came back.

Eleven Niang waited on him to change his clothes, and he said to him, "Mr. Xiang Uncle Xiang was upright and resolute when he was alive. The dignitaries and gentry have not paid attention to them, and have offended many people. Mr. Xiang didn't get his old man's shadow, but added a lot of trouble. But in a short period of ten years, it is not easy for him to become a prefect of four grades from a county magistrate of seven grades. "

It was the first time she had heard about the father.

Eleven Niang's mind can not help but outline a pair of clear and lofty image of the old man. She told Xu Lingyi about Mrs. Tai inviting Mrs. Xiang to bring her children to her home.

"It's hard for them to come here once in a while. You're welcome." Xu Lingyi said, "it's not easy for the second sister-in-law to be alone in these years. We have to let the Xiang family rest assured. "

From Xu Lingyi's words, eleven Niang knows that he has a good relationship with Xu Ling'an, his second brother, who has passed away. The second wife helps Mrs. Tai take charge of the overall situation at the most difficult time of Xu's family. No matter from which aspect, Xu Lingyi hoped that the second wife could live a better life. She could understand this mood.

"Don't worry, I don't need it." Eleven Niang nodded, thinking of Mrs. Xiang's inappropriate words and the sharpness in her eyes, she told Xu Lingyi about the Xiang family's plan to sell the house Would you like to inquire in secret. If there's really something in the way of Xiang's family, you'd better take care of it! "

"This is the first time I've heard of it." Xu Lingyi pondered, "the Xiang family has been an official for generations. Mr. Xiang's official career has been smooth over the years. According to the reason, there should be no financial embarrassment." Then he looked up and said, "I'll see to it!"

Husband and wife chat a few words stop not to mention.

In the early morning of the next day, eleven Niang wore a small white tea dress, embroidered lilies and honeysuckle flowers, and wore a pair of pearl flowers. She went to the Chuihua gate to welcome grandma Luo, his fourth grandmother, twelve Niang and Xiuge to the waterside pavilion.

Xu Siyu and Zhun go to school. Sister Zhen led Xu Si Jie to wait in the waterside pavilion. When we meet, we have our own laughter.

Eleven Niang and two sister-in-law went around where they lived.

The three main rooms behind the waterside pavilion are the inner rooms in the West and the storehouses in the East. Xu Lingyi's study is set at the back of the house. Open the window of waterside pavilion, the mountain and lake of Biyi River can be seen.

"It's a good place to stay out of the summer!" Granny Luo kept nodding.

Five ladies, come here.

"I have a lot of things to do there, and I don't like meat and fish." She said hello with a smile and all the Luo family. She pulled eleven Niang aside and whispered, "you will forgive me for being rude."

Eleven Niang knew that Jining master was doing things in her place these days, and nodded repeatedly to show understanding: "it's a big event over there. It's just that you and your wife are missing, and there's a lot less excitement. "

"After this period of time, I will quarrel with my fourth sister-in-law." Five madams polite a few words, left two small jars of wine, palace wine jinpanlu, and Luo family wife gossips a few words, surrounded by servant girls and back to the yard.

The second lady helped Mrs. Tai over.

Seeing the wine left by the fifth lady, Mrs. Tai nodded slightly and pulled the eldest grandmother of the Luo family to talk to the fourth grandmother. Twelve Niang and Zhen elder sister took brother Xiu and brother Jie to play in the pavilion beside the waterside pavilion.

Mrs. Xiang came with her daughter.

"Taking advantage of the past few days in Yanjing, the master took Yijia to walk around with some old acquaintances and give him some advice on his homework." She explained her son's absence.

"Those who are Laozi wish their sons would ascend to heaven one step at a time." Mrs. Tai said with a smile, "our brother Yu and brother Zhun are going to school today." Asked Xiang Yijia again, "is it possible that we are going to end next year?"

Xiang Yijia became a scholar last autumn.

Mrs. Xiang said modestly, "our master asked him to have a try." Between the eyebrows, however, a glimmer of satisfaction flashed.

"It's about walking." Mrs. Tai listened to a smile and said, "there is an adult's old friend's advice, and the child will not be confused with the two monks."

"That's exactly what Mrs. Tai said." Mrs. Xiang and Mrs. Tai are chatting. The second lady, Mrs. Luo and Mrs. Luo sit beside them. Several young ladies over there have already formed into a group and exchange greetings with a little reserve.

Eleven Niang can't help nodding slightly, secretly paying attention to tea and dim sum.

At noon, Xu Siyu and Zhun Ge came back from school and opened two tables in the water Pavilion central hall.

After a hot meal, song's mother took care of Xu Siyu, Zhun Ge and Jie Ge to lijingxuan. Jiexiang served three young ladies, zhener and Xiangjia, to Shaohua courtyard. Adults moved to the main hall behind the waterside pavilion to play cards.

Luosi granny was not willing to go to the table and gave up her seat to the second lady: "it's hard for you to meet your sister-in-law. Unlike us, you come when you have something to do." Then he sat down beside Mrs. Tai, "I'll help Mrs. Tai look at the cards."

Mrs. Tai likes her very much. He took her hand: "OK, OK, OK. You look at the cards for me. Look, we're winning three. "

After listening to a burst of laughter, Shi Shi ran came to the table.

During this period, a servant girl brought a variety of fruit dishes.Luo Si grandma got up and took the servant girl's dish and put it beside her. She asked the maid to take her to the clean room, but she winked at the eleven Niang.

Wish you all a happy Christmas Eve!
