Chapter 242 Affinity

Not long after Ding's page went back, Hao Ling just finished his work and just went back to see her.

Ding Pagezi put out all the maids, pulled Hao Ling to sit down, and asked with a mysterious smile, "Sir, do you know who Xu Jie is?"

Hao Ling was stunned and said in surprise, "What do you ask him to do?"

Hao Ling will inevitably have some other ideas about his wife's question about other men. Of course, it has nothing to do with jealousy.

Ding Pagezi said, "I'm just asking. Do you know?"

"Didn't I already mention it to you when Xu Jie came? He is the son of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Household. He came to celebrate his ancestors' birthday with the intention of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Household.

Ding Nianzi hugged Hao Ling's arm and said coquettishly, "Sir, I know what you said. I'm asking you what kind of person he is. Do you know about it?"

Ding Page asked a lot of specific questions. Hao Ling became more and more suspicious and asked, "Madam, what do you do with these?"

"Oh... I'm just asking. If you know, just tell me. If you don't know."

Hao Ling spread out his hands helplessly, "Madam, look, Xu Jie has just come to our house for a day. I've been busy all day. How can I have time to see what kind of person he is? On the contrary, Hao Yu has a lot of time and often accompanies him. If you really want to know, I'll ask Hao Yu later.

As soon as he heard that he was going to ask Hao Yu, Ding Yizi quickly pulled Hao Ling and said, "Forget it."

Hao Ling smiled and said, "Why don't you want to ask?" Hao Yu never talks to me with lies. It's the same when he asks him. They are all brothers, and it's not troublesome.

Ding Xiaozi said stingyly, "Are you still your brother? If your uncle really takes you as his own eldest brother, will he play so much in the shop?"

Hao Ling sighed and said, "Madam, you can know this matter by yourself. Don't talk about it in front of others. Yu'er is young and not very sensible. She is inevitably instigated by others. Now I'm looking for an opportunity to talk to him well. As long as he changes, it doesn't matter. If my father knows about this, I'm afraid Yuer won't be able to eat it.

Ding Page curled his lips and whispered, "Really, you are just his eldest brother. Why do you care so much about idleness? Even if Dad knows, it's for his good. Can he still not recognize his son? I think you are worrying about it.

Hao Ling sighed for a long sigh, but he didn't blame Ding's stingy. He also knew that Ding's page was actually a soft-hearted heart, and he didn't want to argue with Hao Yu. He just felt that his eldest brother should not bear everything.

"Yuer is still young. As long as he changes it this time, it doesn't matter. As for Dad, let's not talk about it for the time being.

Seeing Hao Ling's insistence, Ding Page couldn't say anything more, so he muffled.

She believes that Hao Ling is not a fool. If the situation is really uncontrollable, he should not continue to cover up Hao Yu, right? Her only hope now is that Hao Ling really has mastered all of Hao Yu's situation, not just a little bit. Otherwise, I'm really afraid that the situation will get out of control.

The scene of gongs and drums is particularly lively. There are also three platforms for visitors to watch and enjoy, and the banquets in the three halls are also full of 29 tables, and the slightly head-faced characters in Taihe County are all here.

It will soon be evening. Ding Nianszi, as the young lady of Hao Mansion, also has to go out to greet the ladies who come to congratulate them. After socializing, it is really tiring. However, he also took this opportunity to let others really see the ability of Mrs. Hao Fu. She was not the daughter of the market who was rumored to have no knowledge. This is also an unintentional gain of Ding Page.

Because the banquet was too busy in the evening, when the Ding family came, Ding's page just gave a simple greeting and was called to the side. No, she had to tell Xiaotao to follow Ding's mother and others and take care of them everywhere to avoid anything.

He was busy until the end of the year, and Ding Page caught the time to rest and went back to the East Courtyard.

For her, who has been working hard before, this aspect of socializing is really more grinding than making tofu.

Donger came over with tea and snacks, and called two little maids to help Ding Pao beat her legs.

"Young lady, are you tired?" Dong'er handed the tea cup to Ding Yizi.

Ding Page took the tea cup, took a sip, and said softly, "Forbid, it's all right. I'm afraid the old lady is very happy that the house is so lively today."

Dong'er smiled and said, "Isn't it? I think the old lady has been laughing so much that she can't close her mouth.

Ding Page nodded, but there was some emotion in his heart. This person is actually different from the person. The old lady is just 60 years old, and the operation is as lively as if it were a big event in the whole Taihe County. I think it's good to have a meal together when her mother is over 60 years old to celebrate with her family.

Because he saw Xu Jie and Hao Lingwei in the yard that day, then Ding Niazi paid a little attention to this matter, and specially told Xiao Liu to pay attention to Hao Lingwei's whereabouts.

There are not many people around her who can use it. It is really helpless to ask Xiao Liu to pay attention to Hao Lingwei.

After three days of lively operation, Hao's house became quiet. The guests who came to celebrate his birthday had already left Taiban, and only relatives who were a little far away were still living in Hao's house.

Master Hao rushed back to the capital on the twelfth day of the first lunar month because he still had important things to do in the capital, leaving only the ladies and ladies in the big house. Naturally, Xu Jie has never left, and he is still a guest in Haofu.

In this way, even a fool knows that Xu Jie's intention is not simple. If it's really just to celebrate your birthday, you should go back to the capital with Master Hao.

In the past two days, Xiao Liu has also been telling Ding Page about the interaction between Xu Jie and Hao Lingwei.

What makes Ding Page a little gratified is that although Hao Lingwei finds opportunities to gossip with Xu Jie from time to time, Xu Jie seems to have always been reluctant and does not have much contact with Hao Lingwei.

That night, Ding Page simply told Hao Ling about his observation these days and asked him what he meant.

Hao Ling heard this and said with a smile, "Madam, aren't you busy? Why do you think of meddling in these things?"

Ding Page was almost angry, "Son, what are you talking about? Isn't this for the sake of Lingzhu? Besides, what I said was also the truth. Think about it, if Mr. Xu really came just to celebrate the old lady's birthday, is it necessary for him to live in our house for so long? I think he is here to choose a wife. There are only two ladies in our house. Lingwei is still young, so Mr. Xu must have come for Lingzhu. Lingzhu is your own sister, and she is a little generous. If I, as a sister-in-law, don't help her watch a little, who will plan for her? I'm dedicated to Lingzhu's good. Who knows that when I come to you, you blame me for meddling. Whatever, I won't care about Lingzhu in the future.

After saying that, Ding Page lay face against the wall**.

Hao Ling picked up his little wife with a smile, reached out and pinched her little nose. He smiled and said, "Stingy, I just said a word or two casually, but you are waiting to refute me with a basket of words. Well, well, you're smart. I've heard about this from my father for a long time, but I didn't tell you before the eight characters were skimmed. Who would have thought of it was guessed by you.

Ding Page was surprised and said, "So, did Dad deliberately want to marry Lingzhu into Xu's house?"

Hao Ling nod and said, "This marriage is what the old lady means. As early as when she was still in Beijing, she had already said it secretly. This time, taking advantage of the old lady's birthday banquet, I invited Mr. Xu over. In the past few days, I think Mr. Xu is also a person worthy of Lingzhu's trust for life.

Ding Page also agrees with Hao Ling's conclusion with both hands and feet.

Of course, the most important thing nowadays is to see what Hao Lingzhu intends. After all, no matter how good Xu Jie is, it depends on whether Hao Lingzhu likes it or not, right?

There is one thing that Ding Page did not talk about in front of Hao Ling, that is, that day, Hao Lingzhu saw Hao Lingwei hanging out with Xu Jie and left angrily. In Ding's opinion, this should also be a manifestation of Hao Lingzhu's love for Xu Jie, right?

Hao Ling also lay down in ** and whispered in Ding Page's ear, "Madam, I think I'll leave this matter to you. Change the tone of going to explore Lingzhu tomorrow. If she likes, I will say more words in front of my father and try to promote this marriage. If Lingzhu doesn't like it, I won't let her marry into Xufu anyway. After all, the capital is so far away. If she is unhappy in the capital, I, a brother, can't help. Therefore, she has to like this marriage by herself.

Ding Page smiled and said, "I'm just afraid that you mean the same thing as the old lady. I'm afraid that Lingzhu doesn't like it, and you also force her to marry."

Hao Ling laughed and said, "Madam, what are you saying? Lingzhu is my own sister. How can I not consider her? How can she be forced to marry someone she doesn't like? It has to be done if she is willing.

Ding Yizi patted his chest and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, the matter of asking Lingzhu Xinyi is on me. I'll ask questions tomorrow. If Lingzhu can marry a good-willed man, like you and me, it's also a good thing.

When Hao Lingzhu gets married, if Hao Yu still doesn't know how to repent, Aunt Shen still cares like this. Maybe she will move out with Hao Ling, right? Of course, it's best to live together. After all, the old lady is there, and it's impossible to separate the family. I'm afraid the old lady won't agree to live separately.
