Mrs. Fang usually likes to look for Mrs. Liu, but most of them are asking for things and getting something cheap. Even if the family is rich now, Mrs. Fang's temper has not changed.
But it was the first time I heard it when I went to cry in front of the Liu family.
The little ginseng can also guess that there are some other things in it. It is not a good thing to think that the sister-in-law can make you cry, but Ye Jiao is not an eventful person who has to ask about everything, so she sat down again, and asked the small kitchen to put a bowl of wontons and prepare Eat and go.
In Liu's yard, Fang did have something to say, that is, it was a little messy.
The Qi family is a good talker. When Shao Zhizhou fell from power, all the people who followed were unlucky, including the Fang family.
In order to please the Shao family, the big man of the Fang family even asked his sister to have an affair, but was blocked by the Fang family.
Later, it was Qi Zhao who said good things in Fang's face, which prevented Fang's family from being implicated by Shao Zhizhou.
Now that Mrs. Fang came over, in addition to thanking Mrs. Liu for this, she also hurriedly separated herself from her eldest brother, only talking about the difficulty of the third brother and the kindness of the second elder of her family, and didn't mention anything else.
While talking and crying, Liu Shi even wiped her tears with a handkerchief.
Her tears are 70% true and 30% false. Saying that she is sad is really sad, but it is not completely irrational. The main reason is to make Liu Shi feel distressed and feel sorry for herself. She also made it clear that she will definitely not let her mother's family cause trouble to her husband's family in the future. , He was comforted by Liu Shi again, and then he went back.
When Mrs. Fang wiped away her tears, Mrs. Liu asked in a low voice, "Madam, what does the eldest young lady mean?"
Just now, Mrs. Fang's speech was vague, back and forth only saying that she remembered her husband's kindness, looking sad and sad, but she couldn't say why she was sad.
Liu Shi knew Fang Shi better, and said lightly: "She went back to her parents' house early this morning. I think she was angry, and most of the time she realized that her mother's brother is really a mess, and she must cause trouble in the future. Run in a hurry."
This is where women are difficult to do.
The benefits of the usual maiden's family are that the married girl will not be able to shine except to raise her face, but if something happens to the maiden's family, the married girl will also cause trouble.
It is said that the Lu Qi girl had no matchmaking before, and later became a concubine, which delayed many daughters of the Lu family, and even the married ones were implicated, which is very sad.
At this time, if you take too much care of your mother's family, the in-law's family will be unhappy, but if you don't care about the affairs of the mother's family at all, and you will be told by outsiders that you are not filial, it is easy to be in a dilemma.
It's good, I won't let you touch it, just treat you as the water spilled by the married daughter.
There is a disadvantage, but I have to pull it back to help, completely forgetting that this basin of water was thrown out.
The usual Fang Shi is not a clueless person, her husband's family can always reconcile.
This time, I'm afraid that something bad happened to her mother's family, which made Fang's family completely unhappy. She was heartbroken. She married her daughter and couldn't tell her mother-in-law about her mother's family, so she came over and said something vague to herself, so as to save money in the future. Make yourself unhappy.
Madam Liu asked, "Madam, do you want me to go and ask someone?"
Liu Shi shook his head and turned the Buddha beads: "Don't worry, Dalang's daughter-in-law can't hold back, she doesn't talk to me if she has something to say, but she can't help but tell Dalang, if it's really something If it's important, Dalang will naturally handle it, so we won't get involved."
Madam Liu responded and said with a smile, "Then I'll go hug the young master and the girl now?"
Speaking of Ning Bao and Ruyi, Mrs. Liu also smiled and said hurriedly, "Hurry up and show me, that little skin monkey Ruyi will bite her brother's face if he doesn't see it for a while."
The words are true, but what Liu said is straight, and the joy brought by the twins is also double.
Mrs. Liu went down to hold the child. When she went out, she let another woman go to the second young master's yard and told the second young grandmother that the first young grandmother was gone, and it was the right time for her to come.
As soon as Mr. Fang returned to his yard, he had someone wash his face with water and carefully wash his eyes so as not to let the tears hurt his face, and then lay down on the bed with his chest covered, obviously very angry.
The old woman on the side didn't dare to persuade her, so she could only burn the charcoal fire to make the house hot, thinking that this would make Mrs. Fang feel more comfortable.
But he didn't know that the hotter the room was, the more dry Fang's heart was, and the more he held back.
He simply lifted the quilt, turned sideways against the wall, and lay curled up.
When Qi Zhao came back, he saw this scene.
This is not the first time I have seen her like this. My wife knows that Fang's temperament is not large, and she can get angry with herself when she encounters a few things. Unwilling to get up when lying on the bed.
Although Qi Zhao didn't know what was going on, he washed his hands with water with ease, then leaned over with a smile and squeezed Fang Shirou's cheek: "Get up, ma'am, otherwise lunch will be missed again."
Mrs. Fang was always obedient in front of Mrs. Liu, but she was very squeamish with her husband. She reached out and patted the back of Qi Zhao's hand.
But after patting it, he felt that Qi Zhao's hands were cold again, so he twisted his body to face him, wrapped the man's hand in his arms to warm it, frowned slightly and said to him, "Why is it so cold? Not for you. Did you take out the cloak to dry it, didn't you wear it?"
Hearing the words, Qi Zhao replied, "It's just that the water I used to wash my hands with is a little cold..." Before he finished speaking, he saw Fang's reddish eye circles.
The ordinary Fang was angry, but he didn't cry much.
It came so suddenly that Qi Zhao lost his voice and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"
It's okay not to ask, this question made Fang feel more and more aggrieved.
She sat up, waved her hand to let the old woman go down, and then when only she and Qi Zhao were left, Mrs. Fang said, "Second brother came to see me and talked about my parents' family."
Afterwards, Mrs Fang directly explained the matter of the Shen family regretting their marriage and sending their daughter into the palace.
Qi Zhao didn't talk to Mrs Fang so carefully, but only made it clear that people who know the state will not send it, and officials and officials will not send it. It has never been a good thing. A whole body of fishy.
This is reasonable, and Mr. Fang can hear it.
What's more, the matter of catching the traitor was also arranged by Qi Yun one by one, and finally let Fang to implement it, which made Fang have some inexplicable admiration for his second brother.
Since the second brother said it was not good, then most of it was really bad.
Mr. Fang was kind enough to remind Mr. Shen, but he was sneered and sneered back by Mr. Shen!
After listening to Fang Shi's words, even though Qi Zhao didn't quite understand the twists and turns, he felt unreliable just listening to it.
But he didn't say much. After all, it was the family business of Fang's family, and Qi Zhao, the son-in-law, couldn't say that his uncle was not from the house.
And Mr. Fang was not so taboo, and gritted his teeth angrily: "I know that the second brother is kind and capable. What he said should always be right, so he thought about going back and telling my sister-in-law, who knows..."
Mr. Fang didn't say anything later, but Qi Zhao could also guess that Mrs. Fang was angry.
Most of the unforgiving words blocked Fang Shi, and he had to quarrel, for fear that it would be the kind that would tear his face, otherwise his wife would not be so angry.
The eldest brother's wife, Shen's wife, Qi Zhao, has also met. If you say that his wife is just stingy, she will be bitter. Even if the Fang family has received a lot of favors from the Qi family, it has not changed Shen's meanness.
That's the one who can't wait to grab the oil while holding a handful of flour.
Qi Zhao gently touched Mrs Fang's back and said, "If that's the case, don't worry about it. You've said it, and the responsibility will be fulfilled. As for what happens in the end, that's their business."
Mrs Fang squeezed Qi Zhao's wrist, pursed her lips and said, "I don't want to deal with it, they are happy to do big things with them, and you don't have to look at my face and give them a good face in the future. My foster parents are I do my filial piety, but what I give to them might as well be thrown into the water, so I can hear it.”
Qi Zhao laughed, knowing that Mrs. Fang was stingy and short-sighted, she was a bottom line, not the kind of woman who would make up her mind for a while, and now saying this is really tearing her face and not wanting to hold on, she said, "Okay, it's rare for me The lady is so generous, she is happy to throw silver money into the water to hear the sound."
Fang Shi hurriedly said, "You can't really throw it away."
Qi Zhao smiled again, thinking about his daughter-in-law's temper, and it was interesting to watch it for a long time.
At this moment, Mr. Fang suddenly felt dark in front of him, and he was about to fall down with his face raised.
Qi Zhao hurriedly supported her, thinking she was getting angry, and hurriedly asked someone to call Lang Zhonglai.
In the evening, someone came to Liu Shi and Qi Yun's yard to pass a letter, saying that Fang Shi was pregnant, and Lang Zhong said that it was more than a month.
This news really made Liu Shi's mouth be full of joy. Fang Shi has been quiet since she gave birth to the stone. Now that she is pregnant again after a few years, it is a happy event for her mother-in-law.
When Ye Jiao found out, she also sent something to Mrs. Fang. She specially picked herbs that were beneficial to her body and planted them in a pot and sent them to her to help her stabilize her pregnancy.
It's just that now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, Mrs. Fang, as the eldest sister-in-law in the family, usually handles many things during the New Year's Eve. Now that Mrs. Fang is less than three months pregnant with a child, she naturally can't worry too much, and these things are put on hold.
Liu Shi asked Ye Jiao to do it, and if she couldn't ask her, she had to take it and practice it.
The originally leisurely days of Little Ginseng suddenly became tense. In addition to practicing calligraphy every day, I looked at the affairs of the family. It took a while to familiarize myself with all kinds of accounts, and it took a lot of time to manage them well. .
During this month, the shop in Qi Yun's capital opened a branch, and the matter of the house was implemented. When they entered Beijing after the year, they passed the real estate deed and they belonged to them.
Ning Bao and Ruyi have also grown up, especially Ning Bao, who was a little dark before, and the color difference from Ruyi is obvious, but the longer they grow, the whiter they are. Now they are one of Bai Shengsheng. It's like a glutinous rice dumpling, soft and sweet.
It's just that there is no color difference, and the two children look a lot more alike.
Sometimes Xu Bao couldn't tell them apart.
But this is not always the way to go, and when I talked to Mr. Feng once, Mr. Feng said it was "humiliating".
Xu Bao didn't know what Sven was, but since this didn't work, Xu Bao changed his approach.
Leaning over, the one who bit him was Ruyi, and the one who pushed him was Ning Bao.
When Qi Yun entered the door this time, what he saw was Xu Bao on the soft couch, who was laughing and being bitten by Ruyi.
Qi Erlang walked over involuntarily, first wiped Xu Bao's face with the cloth handkerchief, then reached out and hugged Ruyi and shook it, but his eyes turned to Ye Jiao who was behind the desk.
Little Ginseng is looking at the account book attentively at the moment, holding a pen to memorize something, with a very serious expression.
Qi Yun couldn't help but said, "What can't you do?"
I thought that Ye Jiao was definitely going to ask him, and then I would answer it myself, and it would be good to coax Ye Jiao to kiss her, but who knew that Ye Jiao said without raising her head: "Mother let me think about it myself, I can't always ask you."
Qi Yun swayed his wishful hand for a moment, and then asked softly, "Why?"
Ye Jiao didn't hide it from him, and replied directly: "Mother said, when I go back to the capital, I still have to make up my mind about things in the yard. Now that I just practice more, it's better than asking you when the time comes."
Qi Yun knew that Liu Shi was teaching Ye Jiao how to manage the house alone.
The daughters of ordinary people will not teach these things. It is not easy for ordinary people to eat and clothe themselves, and it is a waste to learn too much.
But Ye Jiao was different. She wanted to go to Beijing to be the mistress of the house. Even if Qi Yun could protect her so that she didn't have to worry about any tricks or tricks, the ability to manage the house had to be learned little by little.
Liu Shi had taught it before, but that only allowed her to take care of a yard.
Now that Ye Jiao has taken care of her body, it is just in time for Mrs. Fang to be pregnant and unable to take care of things. Mrs. Liu thought about taking Ye Jiao to learn more and more management, which would be better than turning back to Beijing and smearing her eyes.
Qi Yun knew that this was Liu's kindness, so he didn't say much.
He grabbed Ruyi's little hand that wanted to pinch his ear, shook it twice, and then approached Ye Jiao.
The man's eyes looked at the books spread out in front of Ye Jiao, and he could understand it with just a glance.
There are accounts and details of the placement of the servants in the house. Ye Jiao records them carefully, and the handwriting is neat. Although she can't remember it clearly, she can't see any omissions.
Qi Yun knew that his wife was really studying hard.
He didn't find it surprising, Ye Jiao's temper was like this, she found it useful, like a housekeeper who knew how to read and write, she always put a hundredfold effort into learning it, if she found it useless, like It's poetry, songs and the like, you can fall asleep listening to it, and you can't touch it without touching it.
In fact, Qi Yun didn't want a perfect girl, and sometimes even wished that his wife would be happy. All these laborious things were left to him.
But now, seeing Ye Jiao working so hard, she was inexplicably relieved.
They are all working hard for this family, but after thinking about it, Qi Yun felt that he was only making money, but Jiao Niang had to give birth to a child and manage the back house, which was really too much work.
So, Qi Yun lowered his head and kissed Ye Jiao's forehead.
But before he could speak, Ye Jiao said, "I haven't taken a bath yet. Don't worry, I'll talk about it at night."
Qi Yun: …
Qi Erlang, who didn't want to do anything at first, was suddenly reddened by such a sentence.
With a light cough, Qi Yun hugged Ruyi, who had already started biting his hand, and returned to the soft couch, put it down, and picked up Ning Bao, saying, "Ning Bao is different from Ruyi, I probably shouldn't have given it to him before. He took that name."
Ye Jiao raised her head to look at him: "What's wrong?"
Qi Yun glanced at Ning Bao, who didn't even look at him, and said slowly: "He is too lazy, and Xu Bao doesn't like to move, but Ning Bao is better, he doesn't even bother to open his eyes, just like Xu Bao, Like a pig."
As soon as these words came out, Xu Bao immediately raised his head to protest: "Xu Bao is not a pig!"
Ye Jiao also looked at Qi Yun: "Don't say that, mother said that children also have a memory and know everything. He will write down what you said when he goes back, what if he doesn't kiss you in the future?"
Qi Yun looked at his eldest son and then at his wife, and said no more about the wise choice.
But at this moment, Qi Yun suddenly felt warm.
As soon as he lowered his head, he saw that Ning Bao finally looked at himself.
Those eyes are very similar to him, the corners of the eyes are slightly raised, and the pupils are as dark as ink, but on Qi Yun's face is a gentleman like jade, on Ning Bao's face is pure and innocent.
Then Qi Yun realized later that he was pissed by his son...
Mrs. Mo held back a smile and took Ning Bao, and asked someone to fetch water to wipe Qi Yun, while Ye Jiao got up and walked over, looked at the "map" on Qi Yun's body, and blinked: "Xiang Gong "It's okay, what does the child know?"
Qi Yun: …
You obviously didn't say that just now.
But because of this, Qi Yun took a shower and dragged the lady who was wiping her back into the tub halfway through.
Because the tub is a little smaller, it is inevitable to bring them together, and it is inevitable to feel a little emotional when rubbing the temples.
When Ye Jiao yawned and was wiped clean by Qi Yun, Qi Erlang wanted to hold Ye Jiao over.
Although he was not in good health before, but now he takes care of him properly. Although he is still weak, his strength has grown a lot.
But because there was water on the ground, Qi Yun's feet were unstable, so he "pushed" Ye Jiao, who had just picked up half of it, back into the water.
Ye Jiao: …
Qi Yun: …
Ye Jiao, who had woken up from a nap, wiped herself clean, then dragged Qi Yun back to the bed to lie down, put out the candle, and put down the bed tent, Ye Jiao whispered, "Xiang Gong, why don't I go to bed tomorrow? Can I make soup for you to replenish your body?"
Qi Yun opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say, he just gave a muffled "um".
The next day, the second young master of the Qi family went to buy a good carpet and spread it on the ground.
A few days later, when the twelfth lunar month entered, the first snow fell after winter, and the Qi family was busy again for the Chinese New Year.
