Su Yufei, the third daughter of the Su family, was about to be born in a blink of an eye. Wei Changying asked Huang and others that Su Yufei was the eldest daughter of the second concubine of the Su family. Because her father Su Mao and Mrs. Su had different mothers, they usually Although they are all polite when dealing with each other and treat everyone equally when giving things, they are not as important to Mrs. Su as the children of the eldest and third bedrooms of the Su family. Wei Changying asked Mrs. Su about this matter, and the answer she got was that she should decide on her own. .
Maybe Mrs. Su didn't pay much attention to a niece's birthday, maybe she wanted to test her daughter-in-law. Wei Changying thought about it for a day, considering that Su Yufei and Shen Zangning seemed to be very close friends: last time Shen Zangning ate cousin Su Yuwu's parrot, didn't he just run into her room to avoid Mrs. Su's anger? Of? So I picked a gift that was not too expensive but had a few unique items and gave it to me. The next day, Su Yufei also returned a gift.
Mrs. Su, however, did not interfere at all in this human transaction. Wei Changying was a little unsure and asked Mrs. Huang for advice. Mrs. Huang reminded her: "Madam, she has several nieces, and there are quite a few people in our family. It seems that almost every relative has a birthday. After all, Miss Su San is just Madam. "My junior, Madam is now worried about our Fourth Young Lady. As long as Young Madam doesn't make any big mistakes, even small things are not worth mentioning in Madam's eyes."
Wei Changying was relieved after being reminded.
After a few days like this, it was the ninth day of May. According to the rules at this time, it was very unlucky for a bride to go to other people's homes in the first month of her life, except when she returned home three times. It has to be a full moon before the ban can be lifted.
Mrs. Su was indeed worried about her youngest daughter's marriage, and because she had sent people to Su's house to pick her up several times in the past few days, perhaps she had spoken harshly that day in order to explain to her parents' family, and Shen Zangning was convinced. He will end up miserable when he comes back, and he will hug Mrs. Deng to his life and not let go.
Mrs. Deng felt sorry for her granddaughter, but she was not merciful, so she sent the Shen family back, saying that she would keep her granddaughter with her for a while.
So now that Captain Wei is one full moon, Mrs. Su orders Shen Zangfeng to take half a day off and accompany her to visit Su's house.
Shen Zangfeng didn't know that his mother intended to betroth his sister to his cousin. He thought it was just a matter of meeting the elders as usual after the full moon. He also teased his wife: "I thought I would wait until the day after tomorrow to take a break before going to visit my grandmother's house. I didn't want to Mother actually asked me to take leave of absence to accompany you, lest you miss your third aunt too much. If this continues, mother will love you too much. "
Chief Wei Yingxin thought, if it wasn't for Shen Zangning, how could your mother-in-law ask you to take leave today? Even if I want to go see my second aunt alone first, she may not be willing to agree! But of course it was hard to say this, so I just smiled slightly: "My mother is known to love her daughter-in-law, are you jealous?"
"My wife is a virtuous and virtuous woman, and it is normal for her to win the favor of her elders." Shen Zangfeng gently pinched her cheek and asked with a smile, "Is your husband such a stingy person?"
Wei Changying lightly hit him and glanced at him: "You just said that and started moving, and you don't say you are stingy!"
Shen Zangfeng said calmly: "Ah, okay, my husband is very stingy now and he is angry now. How are you going to coax my husband?"
"A man, you are so stingy, why are you trying to coax you?" Wei Changying took out a candied fruit from the secret pocket in his hand and handed it to him, "For the sake of my mother, I will give you a candied fruit. Eat it. That’s it.”
Shen Zangfeng said seriously: "You are too underestimated! You want to send me away with just one candied fruit! If you don't have three, you can't even think about it!"
The two of them chatted and laughed when they arrived at the Su Mansion. Since it was the first time for the nephew and his newly married niece to visit, the eldest wife of the Su family, Deng Shi, and the third young wife, Gu Shi, went to the door to greet them.
Mrs. Deng is the grand-niece of Mrs. Deng. Wei Changying heard Mrs. Huang mention that she and Deng Zongqi, who had saved him once in Xiaozhu Mountain, were also direct cousins.
The eldest son of the Su family, Su Ruoqian, whom Deng married was a concubine. Although he had the title of eldest grandson, he could not compare with the late second son, Su Yuxian. However, after Su Yuxian's death, his wife Shen Zangzhu went back to live in her natal family's residence, Xiangning County. The fourth son of the Su family was not married yet, so Deng's daughter-in-law was the only daughter-in-law in the eldest house, and she also helped the eldest wife Qian to take care of the housework. .
Mrs. Deng was born very beautiful. Although she gave birth to a daughter, she was still radiant and slim. He didn't speak much, and every word he said seemed to have been thought over and over again. Wei Changying speculated that this had something to do with Su Ruoqian's status in the Su family - as the eldest grandson, he was not considered to take over the family when there was a legitimate brother because of his concubine, especially after the death of his legitimate brother Su Yuxian, and another His younger brother Su Yuliang was embarrassed by his big job.
Under such circumstances, Su Ruoqian and Deng's performance was mediocre, and their aunt Qian might think that they were deliberately dragging the family back; if they were too active, Qian might think that they had ulterior motives.
In particular, Mrs. Qian had to ask Mrs. Deng to help her because Shen Zangzhu returned to her parents' home. Mrs. Deng was either stupid or smart, so she could only be cautious in her words and deeds.
On the other hand, the third young lady, who was born in the Gu family of Hongzhou, probably because her husband Su Yuyuan is the eldest son of the second brother-in-law, the second brother-in-law didn’t have any ideas anyway, and the eldest brother-in-law and the third brother-in-law were afraid of forcing the second brother-in-law to go to the other side, so they were always polite to the second brother-in-law. Mrs. Gu didn't have too many scruples, but she was very enthusiastic. She asked for help along the way and was very polite.
Wei Zhangying and them all walked perfunctorily into the main hall. Everyone inside was already here. The black crow and crow hall were very different from what Wei Zhang Ying Jingcha had seen before at the Shen family. The girl from the Su family was More than the Shen family.
At first glance, all the splendid things and the ringing hairpins are unmarried ladies in colorful clothes. Unlike the Shen family, there is no unmarried young lady in the Tutor's Mansion except Shen Zangning. Although the two ladies from the Xiangning House are both at home now, they didn't see either of them last time.
These unmarried ladies did not follow their parents, but they all gathered around an old woman with gray hair and dark autumn-colored clothes.
It goes without saying that this must be Mrs. Deng. As the saying goes, Duanmu Xinmiao may have been influenced by his master Ji Qubing. He did not have the benevolence of a doctor as the world thinks. However, it was also passed down from Ji Qubing. His medical skills are unquestionable. In these days, Mrs. Deng is not only able to come out to receive courtesy from the younger generation, she also looks good. Wei Changying had never seen Mrs. Deng before she was ill. Looking at her like this, she really couldn't tell that Mrs. Deng had ever been so ill that her daughter, who had been married for many years, rushed back to her parents' home to live there for several days to serve her on the bed.
Deng and Gu, who led the couple in, asked Mrs. Deng and their subordinate Qian to return their orders. Someone had already laid out a brocade mat for the couple to pay a grand tribute to the old lady.
Mrs. Deng called out kindly, and asked someone to bring out a pair of jade Ruyi as a meeting gift. She smiled and said: "I heard that you two are getting along very well these days. Now it seems that you are really a match made in heaven. It can be seen that your elders were You both have very good eyesight and know that you are a perfect match.”
Wei Changying's face turned red, but Shen Zangfeng smiled and said, "Grandma is right. My father has always had good eyesight, and so does Grandpa Wei."
Everyone laughed, and the laughter of a group of gorgeous girls surrounding the old lady was especially clear.
The old lady also laughed and joked: "I originally wanted to tell you to treat your wife well, but it seems there is no need for it now."
Qian said with a smile: "Why does mother need to warn this child? My daughter-in-law sees that his heart is tied to his wife. No, he is going to work in the palace today, right? But he ended up running to our house. Here she is." He glanced at the side and said, "She is the niece of the third brother and sister, so she is usually a blessing."
Next to her was a beautiful and calm woman in blue, who looked straight at her words. On the other hand, the woman in blue was further down, a dignified and beautiful woman in green clothes, with a bun, a long face, almond eyes and rosy cheeks. After hearing this, her dark eyebrows frowned slightly, and she said in a lukewarm voice: "Of course."
After saying this, he seemed to be dissatisfied with what Qian said. He gently pulled the veil and said with a half-smile, "If you are not lucky, will our eldest brother-in-law and eldest sister take a fancy to it?"
Wei Changying speculated that this beautiful woman in green must be her only biological aunt Wei Zhengyin. This sentence suddenly reminded her of Mrs. Su's private agreement with Wei Zhengyin to be the in-laws for her children. Xuan and Mrs. Su are interested in him, is he referring to himself, or... Su Yuwu
If it refers to his cousin Su Yuwu, and Su Yuxian's untimely death caused Su Yuwu to be favored by his grandfather Su Pingzhan, the meaning of this statement is profound.
No matter which one it is, it can be seen that there is quite a gap between Wei Zhengyin and Qian. Mrs. Su's understatement that the two of them were harmonious before was really just a cover-up of polite words.
Mrs. Qian seemed a little bit surprised that Wei Zhengyin would be so disrespectful to her in front of a junior who came to see her for the first time, and her eyes showed annoyance and hatred.
Mrs. Deng coughed and said to smooth things over: "You also meet your aunt, cousins, and cousins." She then explained, "Your grandfather, uncle, and cousins are all on duty now. I didn't know you beforehand." I will come today, but I can’t take leave, so don’t be surprised.”
Naturally, Shen Zangfeng and Wei Changying were not surprised, so they went all the way from Qian to visit. As expected, the woman in blue was her second aunt Zhang, and the beautiful woman in green was Wei Zhengyin. Wei Zhengyin didn't give Qian's face in public, so he married her. The niece and nephew were very affectionate. She held Wei Changying's hand and looked at it carefully, saying with emotion: "You have grown so big in the blink of an eye. I remember when you were brought back to Fengzhou, you were still in your infancy... what a time." "Longran!" He also said that she was beautiful, "Your father and mother were born well, but you are better than others."
This was recognized by Mrs. Zhang: "Ms. Wei is so beautiful. I heard people say this before I left the cabinet. The third younger sister is a beauty herself. I don't want this child to be even worse than the third younger sister. ” He smiled again, “I just suddenly remembered it, please don’t be upset, third brother and sister.”
Wei Zhengyin said: "Except for my mother, I have never seen my eldest brother from my mother's side here. Although he has been ill for many years, in terms of appearance, no one among my brothers and sisters can compare with him. It is even rarer that he has a charming appearance. I To be arrogant, I haven't seen anyone like this in the imperial capital in these years. Chang Ying is his eldest daughter, so she should be better than I was when I was young. "
Few people had seen Wei Zhenghong, but many had heard rumors about his extraordinary grace. Everyone felt sorry for Wei Zhenghong. Qian was very unhappy to be left out, and said calmly: "Okay, okay, Wei is so beautiful. I heard about it before my second brother and sister came out of the cabinet. Now we see your aunt and nephew with our own eyes, standing there." Being together is like walking out of a portrait on the wall... The mother is in good health, and I'm afraid she won't be able to come out for too long. Should we let the two children meet their sisters first, and then sit down and talk slowly?"
