He had heard that Zhou Mao had returned to Beijing a long time ago, but he never thought that he would meet them again in such a unique way.
"Why are the two ladies here? Haitang Juli has already made preparations, why don't the two ladies go to soak in the hot spring to keep warm?" The maid in the villa saw them and greeted them with a smile.
"No, no, no, no, no, let's take a look around, just take a look." Before Shen Xinyan could say anything, Yang shook her head and waved her hands to refuse.
"Frozen? I won't be spoiled in my life, who knows if there will be mandarin ducks playing in it." Yang muttered in a low voice.
Shen Xinyan could hear clearly, the corner of her mouth twitched.
It seems that there is a psychological shadow.
The maid didn't force it, and introduced with a smile: "The lady is interested in admiring chrysanthemums? There are many precious varieties of chrysanthemums in the Fun Chrysanthemum Hall ahead, and they are already blooming quite beautifully at this moment."
"That's pretty good, where is this interesting Jutang?" Yang finally got a little interested.
"Just ahead, I will lead the two ladies."
"Young lady!"
Maybe it was really a "destiny". When the sky was getting dark and the two sisters-in-law were about to leave, they met Zhou's wife, Mrs. Wen, head-on.
Looking at Wen's rosy face, moist eyes that seemed to contain two spring water, her curly figure, and the charming temperament lingering on her body, Shen Xinyan couldn't help but lamented that God had given this woman love.
Decades of her appearance, her slender and delicate body, and the belt around her waist, not only made her slender waist more apparent, but even her chest was bulging.
Wen Shi still recognized them, she was a little surprised at first, and then she came forward to greet them with a smile: "Madam, Third Madam."
"Mrs. Zhou." Shen Xinyan politely returned the salute.
After greeting each other, the two chatted a few more words and got into their own carriages, but Shen Xinyan realized that Yang's face beside her was quite strange.
Before she could ask, Mrs. Yang sighed heavily, and said in a low voice, "Second sister-in-law, I'm afraid I won't be able to look directly at Mrs. Zhou for a while. The white flesh is walking, really, it's so dirty to the eyes!"
Shen Xinyan was choked and coughed again and again.
Yang patted her on the back considerately, and said bitterly: "It's true that she was born as a concubine who can't stand on the stage, and she has learned the coquettishness of that foxy girl completely, how can she look like a wife in the middle room!"
"And that old master Zhou, bah! It's a waste of reading the books of the sages. Such a hungry ghost has the face to be a parent and official in power. It's a disgrace to all the officials and scholars in the world!"
Shen Xinyan was a little funny, she just felt that after so many years of struggle with the concubine's room, Yang has gradually realized the truth that a slap can't be slapped. Even, he has begun to realize that the key to all problems lies in men.
She thinks this kind of idea is quite good, instead of resenting those beauties who are striving to be the best, it is better to hold on to the man who sees one and loves the other.
The carriage galloped all the way, and soon returned to the British government.
The two sisters-in-law said goodbye to each other and went back to their houses.
Stepping into the gate of Funing Courtyard, one can hear a burst of soft and cheerful laughter from a young child in the distance, which makes people feel happy when they hear it.
She smiled slightly, and unconsciously sped up her steps a little, walked into the room, and saw her youngest son, Brother Xiang hanging on Wei Chenglin like a little monkey, like playing hide-and-seek, she turned her face and giggled at Wei Yingzhi, waiting Seeing his sister making funny faces at him, she immediately hid her fat face back to her brother's neck.
Back and forth like this, a burst of cheerful laughter from the little guy filled the room.
The little child looks chubby, just like what Shen Xinyan joked when he was just born, the little guy not only looks very much like his father, but even his laughing and fussy temperament is said to be the same as Wei Junhang's when he was young.
"Ah!" The little guy was the first to discover her, and he yelled softly, followed by the halazi.
Wei Chenglin also saw her, first wiped his fat face with a handkerchief, and then came forward with his arms in his arms.
"Mother!"
"Mother!" Wei Yingzhi also called out.
"The little villain is making trouble with your brother again, isn't it?" Shen Xinyan squeezed her youngest son's face with a smile, and picked up the little guy who opened his arms and called out to her, and then asked Wei Chenglin: "It's been a hard journey, but the errands can still be done." smoothly?"
"It's not hard, it's relatively smooth, and my mother is worried." Seeing that Wei Chenglin, who is about to turn eighteen, is much calmer than in previous years. In the past few years, Emperor Yuanyou wanted to test him, and gradually pointed him to some errands, and he never disappointed.
It was also because of this that Emperor Yuanyou finally believed that Wei Junhang did not exaggerate back then, and that this son's excellence really has the potential to emerge from the blue.
"I have to rest for a few days when I come back this time... Hey, don't talk, don't talk, it hurts, you little villain!" She was telling the eldest son, but she didn't expect the younger son in her arms to suddenly grab her hair and hold her tightly. His bun was messed up immediately, and the pearl hairpin on his head was also ripped off to the ground by him.
Wei Chenglin was about to step forward to hug his younger brother away, but Wei Yingzhi was faster than him, so he stopped the giggling little villain who had done something bad, and slapped that chubby ass.
"Don't grab things!"
She didn't hurt at all from the beating, so the little guy wasn't afraid at all, he just smiled cheerfully at her, and the tears flowed down again in an instant.
Taking advantage of her daughter's opportunity to hug the troublemaker away, Shen Xinyan took the opportunity to enter the room, took off the beaded jewelry on her body, tied her hair into a simple bun, and changed into comfortable and simple ordinary clothes.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to rest for a long time, and His Majesty asked me to go to the Wucheng Bingmasi to participate in maintaining the order in the Beijing of the Longevity Festival." After she came out and coaxed the younger son to go down with the nanny, Wei Chenglin said the rest Tell her about the errand.
Shen Xinyan sighed, and said with a bit of complaint: "Your Majesty, it's true. After finishing the errand with great difficulty, it is not easy for people to rest for a few days. This errand has come one after another."
Although it was a sign that Emperor Yuanyou valued his son, seeing him running around, she couldn't help but think of the big and small injuries on his body in the previous life, and always felt a little uncomfortable.
"In this way, brother will be at home on Longevity Day, right?" Wei Yingzhi's eyes lit up, and she interjected.
Wei Chenglin nodded: "It should be."
"That's good. I'm going to see the lanterns on the Wanshou Festival this year. With you here, my mother can't say anything." Wei Yingzhi was even happier.
"If you are more obedient and don't run around, why would I bother you." Shen Xinyan poked her forehead helplessly.
Wei Yingzhi was not annoyed, she rubbed her forehead with a smile: "Anyway, I must go this year. If you don't agree, mother, I will find my father and ask him to accompany me!"
Shen Xinyan shook her head helplessly.
"Your brother has an errand, even if he is still at home that day, how can he have the time to accompany you to watch the lanterns?"
"What's the big deal, isn't he going to inspect it? We'll see it then." Wei Yingzhi disagreed.
Because there was still work to be done, Wei Chenglin sat down for a while and then left. Shen Xinyan asked her daughter, "Where is your cousin Hui?"
"Not long after you and Third Aunt went out, Uncle sent someone to pick her up!" Wei Yingzhi answered casually as she flipped through her younger brother's clothes with great interest.
"Have you ever heard what happened?" Shen Xinyan asked casually.
"It seems to be because of Cousin Feng's marriage."
Shen Feng is older than Wei Chenglin, he is nineteen this year, and he is about to reach the age of weak crown, but the marriage is still not settled, Uncle Jing An is very anxious, and he also asks Shen Xinyan to help find a daughter-in-law, but so far Among the girls who arrived, none of them could make Shen Feng nod and accept the marriage.
Shen Xinyan remembered that Shen Feng in her previous life had never married a wife before he disappeared, so in this life, although she was still looking for a suitable girl seriously, she didn't hold out much hope that Shen Feng would accept her.
Things are exactly as she thought.
What made her even more troublesome was the marriage of the eldest son.
After retiring from Prince Ning's Mansion that year, during this period, the Eldest Princess looked for a girl from Lord Xie's mansion again, who would have thought that the two families had just exchanged tokens, and before the marriage could be settled in time, the girl "accidentally slipped and fell into the water" and died".
The two marriages chosen in a row did not have a good ending, especially after learning that the condition of Princess Changning on Yunyan Mountain has gradually improved after retiring, and that Wei Chenglin's wife's words were circulated in Beijing at some point, I was so angry The eldest princess smashed several precious vases again and again.
Even Shen Xinyan was furious.
Leaving aside the marriage with Prince Ning’s Mansion, let’s just talk about the girl from Xie’s Mansion. It’s obvious that the girl eloped with someone without knowing how to behave. this daughter.
And the Xie family even begged them to keep this secret, so as to save the face of the Xie family.
Now it is good, his Xie Mansion has saved his reputation, but this dirty water has been completely poured on her son.
Ke wife, with such a reputation on his back, no matter how outstanding Brother Rao Delin is, this marriage is difficult.
What followed was the marriage of the niece Shen Huiran, and now that Shen Huiran was old enough, this marriage could not be delayed any longer.
She rubbed her forehead with a headache, and then sighed a long time. Looking at her daughter who was studying the little clothes of her younger son, she felt that the pressure was even greater.
My daughter is fourteen this year, and at this age most girls have already started talking about marriage. Therefore, within the next two years, she must also arrange a marriage for her.
I don't know what's going on, but many things in this life have gone smoothly, but it's just the marriages of these juniors that she cares about, which cause headaches one by one.
It's good for Yunfu, there are concubines and concubines in the palace to help him, and with his status, there are not too many families in the capital who want to betroth their daughters to him.
