Chapter 89 Family Banquet and Song Girl
Wang Yulan rested all night, nourished her spirit, and turned out the gifts brought by Lin County to Ruoyu. It was her favorite to play with, which made Ruoying very moved. Among them, there were several good ladies' letters, and the last one on the front was also the latest one to send.
Ruoyan held it gently in her hand and was shocked: "Did you give me the good color?" Wang Yulan nodded and slapped the fat hand of the little stone that was reaching for the letter, which made the child cry. As soon as Liang Mu coaxed the small stone, he was beaten and cried in a blink of an eye. He hurriedly and hugged him. He couldn't help complaining, "Your mother's hand is really hateful. It's all red. When Brother Qingzhu and I tell you a letter, let's see how he can deal with you when he goes back?"
Wang Yulan squeezed out a wry smile and said, "You! That is to say, now he speaks lightly and takes care of his son. I'm afraid he looks the same as Shi Qingzhu. How far he can run, how far he can go. She really scared this naughty boy. Seeing Liangmu teasing him, she put her son's hands on and ordered, "Today you are free. If you don't go to lay it, just help me bring me a small stone for a day. If you don't come to complain at noon, I will really convince you."
Liang Mu is now a famous person in the business world. He has never met any difficult role, and he can still be afraid of a little doll. He said indifferently, "Don't think that men can't take care of children. I'll let you see the majesty of being a father." With that, he bumped into Ruoyan and said, "If I bring it well, how about giving birth to two with me next year?"
He flirted like this in front of outsiders. Ruoyan blushed and pushed him, "Don't let the child be hot. Just be hungry. Maybe what will happen then?"
"Hey! I don't look down on people like a wife. I'm going to find my godmother now. Liang Mu picked up the small stone and carried it in mid-air, and the two of them left with a smile. Wang Yulan shook her head and smiled bitterly: "I haven't waited for a while!" I went to Aunt Qin for help, really! Let me tell you, if you are young and comfortable for a few years, how late the child can ask for it, how late it will be. It's really hard to learn from others.
Ruo Ying nodded with a smile: "I've made a good idea. Is there any more talk!" Wang Yulan slapped her, "You stinky girl, what are you talking about? Pooh... If you don't learn well at a young age, you can actually say something. Isn't it necessary to chew your tongue when you listen to it?
After being scolded by her, Ruoqi really didn't dare to talk nonsense. Looking at the letter carefully, the colorful letter was very short. Although it was missing, the lines also revealed her difficulties at home. Ruoqi frowned more and more tightly.
Wang Yulan remembered what Liangfeng said and couldn't help spitting out to Ruoqi. Ruoying also shook her head. "She has always been different from Liangfeng. I'm afraid it's difficult to persuade!" Wang Yulan also nodded, "I also went to her house to persuade her to come out and relax, but she refused to do anything!"
"The bubbles on her feet are also worn by herself. She can't blame others!" Ruoyan sighed and then said, "Sister Yulan, go back and tell her that if she really can't get along, she will be separated. I will be the steward of the cake shop in Linxian County. If you are worried about your three daughters, you can pick her up and live together. I'll just help raise it."
Yulan nodded, "Is that her mother-in-law's source of goods?"
"My daughter doesn't live with his family. Of course, the supply of goods will be cut off, and it will be cut off simply. Don't drag mud and water. Even if you cry to death, you must be sharp." If you say harsh words with a cold face, Yulan is very relieved, but when she remembers Liangcai, she can't give up that family and doesn't want to divorce, and she begins to be in trouble again.
Ruo Wan smiled gracefully and took He's letter and said, "What if she doesn't want to do it! We can also ask her to get a fake clutch first, at least to scare her mother-in-law and family to understand what it means to cherish! And I'm afraid that it will be the most effective for He's Taishan to come out of the way.
Wang Yulan slapped her with joy: "Why did you forget He, the official grandmother? The colorful mother-in-law is the most difficult to deal with. If you let He blow the wind from her grandfather, you can't arrest the heartless man and sit through the prison. Let's see who else in his bitches can live with him. "
It's really worthy of being a sister. This idea is so thoughtful, which makes the two of them laugh. Ruoyu praised: "Sister, I really hate this idea, but I didn't come up with it!" Seeing her cunning appearance, Wang Yulan squeezed her tender little face fiercely: "It's really unruly. I have done bad things, but you are a good person!"
"That's natural!" She repeatedly wore a bun in her hand and smiled quite catishly. Then he picked up a few letters and read them, and his thoughts became heavier and heavier. He couldn't help calling the maid to prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone. He wrote a reply here in Yulan, and also listed a long gift list, which made Wang Yulan depressed. If the family went back, I'm afraid he would have to prepare more cars.
In her spare time, Ruo Wan always changes her method to coax Mrs. Qin and Wang Yulan to be happy. As long as it is a famous land in Cangzhou, it is necessary to go there to walk and play, especially the surrounding beautiful mountains and rivers. It is not enough for Mrs. Qin to walk several times. Liang Mu is even more hospitable. Every time she drives them to play together, she is so happy that Mrs. Qin praises her uncle's filial piety every time.
The happy time passed quickly. In a blink of an eye, it was time for Ruoyan to invite the old relatives and friends of the Lian family, as well as some business partners of Liangmu, to visit her home. Even though there were many people doing these things at home, as a housewife, she naturally had to be busy. Mrs. Qin felt sorry for her and wanted to help. Ruo Ying also felt sorry that she was too tired when she was old, so she pushed her to Lin Bai's place and walked around on the bunk.
Little Stone, the child is very sticky with his mother. Wang Yulan has no choice but to beg with him all day long. She can't go there. She complains that it's better to leave the child at home. If you can only watch it but can't help it. Every time, it's okay. If Xiaoshi is sleepy, he will cry until he comes back. In Wang Yulan's arms, this is mother-child induction! It's really jealous.
"It's amazing to go to the shop. Our baby is busy with my aunt's family affairs!" Wang Yulan waved the arm of the small stone boredly. Ruoyan waited for the opportunity to go to the diaphragm of the ungrate person, which made the small stone laugh and drool, "Okay! Auntie can't ask for it!"
So, this morning, the two big and small ones were consumed in the same place, but the girl around Ruoyan, the wife, as long as the two ladies talked excitedly, they stuffed the small stone into someone's arms until they cried uncontrollably. Fortunately, these masters are not the masters of the lowly subordinates, otherwise the young master How long is the crying nose? You still have to catch it.
After two days of arrangement, everything was appropriate. Waiting for the guests to enter the door, the master and his wife stood at the door to greet each other. Ruo Ying was wearing a large purple wide-sleeved needle-embroidered peony skirt, a light cyan silk gauze on the outside, a phoenix hairpin head, and several pendants and pearls. Although it was heavy, it was very decent and gorgeous. Fortunately, these two days have been busy, but they are thin, and they don't look so fat and graceful in tedious clothes. To provoke those admiring officials, Shang Jiagu stopped to wait and see, only sighing that he did not have this good luck and married such a beautiful woman.
Some identities are from afar and never look closely. However, he was always a little rude. He came over with a calm face and found all kinds of reasons to talk to Ruoyan, which made people tired of him. He was dragged away by several intimate friends of Liangmu to eat wine. Ruoyan was able to be excused and went to the backyard to receive those old ladies and little women.
When Huang Yehan saw Lian Mu looking at his wife's tired posture, he couldn't help sighing: "If you love her, find a few good helpers to knead her and use her. I think it's a good brother."
Liang Mu's face turned blue in an instant, "What did she say in a good day?" Huang Yehan pinched the spirit of not being afraid of death. He whispered and smiled, "Don't worry! No one dares to chew his tongue in front of your wife. Even if he said so, Liang Mu still frowned unnaturally.
Li Erniang is dressed in a bright red long gown skirt, and behind her is a group of charming concubines like flowers and butterflies. Among many ladies, even if she doesn't want to think about her, it is rare. Ruoqi hurried over and talked to her for a while.
Like a frequent visitor like her, she naturally became her own person. Seeing that Ruoyu was busy, she hurriedly assigned her concubines around her to be maids and helped greet the wives of various prefectures. The young lady poured tea and water and spread the tongue. She was comfortable. Ruoyan looked at the deep resentment in the eyes of Lian's second concubine, and her legs trembled.
Pei Yun also came in advance and specially brought two cooks from his mother's family who knew Sichuan cuisine, Fujian cuisine, Cantonese cuisine and Hunan cuisine to use. The happy Ruojing was really speechless. She took her hand and thanked her directly.
Seeing her appearance, Pei Yun was unhappy. "I saw you as a sister. Today, my sister is busy at home. It's normal for me, as a sister, to do what I can. It's not good for my sister to see outside!"
Compared with people's generosity, I seem to be really a little angry. Ruoyu blushed and smiled, "Although there are a few high-class cooks in my family, there will be so many there, and there are many people from other places here, so I'm afraid that the hospitality will not be perfect. My sister asked these people to come, which is really helpful."
Pei Yun listened to her praise and laughed. "Speaking of these chefs, I really want to talk about my greedy mouth. Since I was a child, I have liked the delicious food of Thoreau and my parents took care of them, so I got married and took them to my mother-in-law's house."
The two were talking when Aunt Lian looked for her in a hurry, followed by a few-year-old yellow-headed child, who shrank her small head and dared not raise her head. She took Ruo's hand and asked, "Where's your mother-in-law?" Why is there no shadow on one side?" Ruo was also busy receiving guests. When she saw it there, she asked Xiaoqiu to take Aunt Lian to look for it.
Not long after, there was a sound of drums and gongs at the front desk. The girl who sent the message asked the ladies to sit down with the shelter on the second floor. The women in your house are delicate and can't be seen more with outsiders, which is a taboo of rudeness. After thinking for a long time, she had her own wife's request to remove the four windows on the second floor of the second door and make a temporary pavilion, which can not only block the bright sun, but also ventilate outside, but also very cool. In addition, there are pink gauze on both sides, but it can't be seen clearly, only the hazy beauty is already there.
Seeing this meeting, I was praised by several ladies, who praised her for being skillful and not only able to enter the mall but also do housework. As soon as the ladies sat down, they passed the food up. They saw girls as watery, holding porcelain plates with one hand and slowly walking slowly with the rotating stairwells. The blue gauze behind them moved like waves and undulating.
The beautiful Li Erniang slapped her, "Ouch! Why are all the girls in my sister's house so beautiful? I have to take a good look at it today. If it's eye-catching, I'll take it home directly.
She wants to be straightforward, speaks without thinking, and no one is too lazy to care about her. Aunt Lian was saying some speculative words to Du, and she was very warm-blooded and didn't have time to pay attention to her.
He is now married to a steward, and his identity is a little lowly. He can't argue with her as usual. He can only smile gently, turn a few bends in his mind, and said in a voice that only the two of them can hear, "Mrs. Lian, you don't look at who the head is, so you talk like this. I'm afraid it's the old lady. I will be so unhappy."
Not to mention that Li Erniang really didn't know who she was. After listening to He's reminder, she got up and came forward to have a look. At this time, Du Sanniang was dressed in a sky-blue veil and a pink chest skirt, and her exquisite figure loomed. Even if a woman saw it, she caused a fire in her heart, not to mention a man?
In addition, she has dark green silk curly hair and exquisite double buns, which are small and pleasant, and a tender flower is even more beautiful. In particular, those seemingly beautiful eyebrows are painted with pink. No matter how you look at them, they are very charming. The red lips are a little more rosy. It's really a beautiful blank like this.
"What a beautiful person" Li Erniang slapped with a smile.
Ruoyan had known Li Erniang's thoughts for a long time. Seeing her exaggerated expression, she was used to it, but Du Sanniang was very useful. She thanked her with a shy and sweet smile and retreated.
Originally, this dish was a matter of the girls. How could she be used as a little woman who didn't go out and was still a guest in the Lian family, but Du Sanniang specially went to beg Ruo Ying and the role of Du's Shang Fang sword. She, the mother-in-law, could only be accommodated, no matter what she had to think behind her back.
Du Shi also endures shame and earns shouts. He is dedicated to dressing up his niece well and can also occupy some position in Lian Mu's heart. Even if it doesn't work, he can see those rich masters and young masters, who are familiar with each other and will be used in the future.
Of course, Li Erniang didn't know their ideas. After listening to He's identity, she was shocked and opened her mouth wide, "What's the matter? Is she broken in her head? Does she like the identity of a girl?"
He is well aware of Du's little Jiujiu. He smiled and waved his hand, "No, no, she! It's almost eighteen, a big girl, but now she's still spending time with her aunt, and she doesn't have a family! If Mrs. Lian likes it, it's easy for the old lady to talk to her, maybe..."
The family is good, good old, good-looking, and a good age to raise. To sum up, Li Erniang was really in love with her. She muttered a few words to He in a low voice. He's words were all about her heart. Li Erniang was full of excitement and unhappy. She couldn't wait to take Du Sanniang home immediately.
Today's Du family is not so leisurely. When people are old, they want to have a leisurely stay for a while. It's good to have some tea and watch small songs. But they don't know that the aunt of the second Lian family has been infected with the wind. She insisted on inheriting her concubine's youngest son Lian Shun, kowtowed and toasting, forcing Du to relax.
Now Du's life is living well, but Aunt Lian wants to stuff people in it. Du is not a fool. Du Sanniang and Lian Mu have no news, and Lan is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Her money is not enough to live to the end of her life! How could she help others support her son? She was annoyed by the second aunt Lian and frowned on her forehead three times. She folded a topic and fled to Mrs. Qin to have a chat with each other. However, the second aunt Lian has the spirit to fight and can't be lost. She just wants to retire from the hospital.
Ruo Ying turned around and saw it inadvertently, and felt novel. How did the two people talk for so long? They still seemed to be speculative? (Of course, that's the speculation of one party) "Look, those people are not promising, and each of them has one around them." Wang Yulan looked at the man downstairs who was drinking and teasing women to complain. Fortunately, Shi Qingzhu didn't catch up, otherwise she would have to be pissed off.
When a large family invites you to drink, they all want to present the tricks of the family to accompany the wine and have fun. However, the Lian family is very clean. There is such a woman there. Even a concubine can't find one. Instead, it makes Li Erniang laugh. She said that there is no one to accompany her and loses everyone's decent appearance. Ruo Huan originally looks down on such things, but next to her father-in-law. Face, I can't say like Li Erniang, "Sister-in-law's big belly, I really can't lend you a few concubines. Let's turn around one or two first. Anyway, my concubine's room is also idle."
I just used her concubine's house as a girl, and now I'm going to be a drinking trick. I'm afraid it's strange that I won't kill people when I go home? Lan Ruoyan stamped her feet cruelly and used a lot of money to go to Chunxiang Pavilion. She invited more than a dozen tricks to come over, and each of them was as beautiful as flowers and skillful as a spring. It was beautiful to put it there. It can also be regarded as earning back face and accumulating virtue and doing good deeds.
Just as she was happy with her intelligence, a plain woman surrounded by a guqin came up from downstairs and recommended herself to play with the ladies to relieve boredom. Suddenly, it caused an uproar as if it was muted, and the surroundings became quiet. If you mutter in your heart, it seems that you have only invited people to sing and talk, and there is no woman who plays the piano?
"This singer is really handsome. Who invited you?" Du sat in the first place and asked with a smile, but he did the kind appearance of the old lady.
The woman was deeply blessed, "The slave family was invited by the honest officials to cheer up with the ladies." It's a little awkward to hear this. The trick of selling songs is to call Enkeduo, but she is called a senior official, which makes people unhappy to hear.
Before Ruoyan, the housewife was unhappy, Li Erniang couldn't sit still. She suddenly stood up and shouted, "What tunes do you know? Take out and sing with us ladies. If it's not good, don't blame us for not buying Uncle Lian's debt."
Ruoyan pulled her sleeve and smiled, "The person my father-in-law invited must be good. If you don't believe it, sister-in-law, just listen?"
Li Erniang's face turned red with embarrassment and she was busy sitting down. The woman who sells songs will definitely look at Ruoyu. Ruojing looked back at her, only saw a moment of distraction, unclear loss and uneasiness in her heart, and then settled down peacefully.
The sound of the piano permeated her ears, skillful and graceful, but without the flexibility played by Lin Bai. If she unconsciously shook her head, she didn't have any thoughts. However, everyone listened attentively, but their eyes looked at her every move unexpectedly, and it was really strange to wander back and forth with the woman who played.
"Master, something happened." The kang lowered his head and muttered a few words beside Liang Mu. He saw Liang Mu suddenly change his face and asked in a low voice, "Who called her in?" The kang head didn't know, so he shook his head blindly, "Master, think about what to do? I'm afraid this lady will kill me.
Liang Mu had no leisure to take care of his life. He got up and resigned from you for a while. Huang Yehan saw that he looked wrong and followed him. He was stunned when he looked up at the female guest on the second floor.
Reaching out and patting him on the shoulder with a delicious smile: "Brother, I thought you were just playing, but I really wanted to..."
"I want to die. I'm fine with her. Don't you even know that?" Liang Mu gritted his teeth and pulled Huang Yehan's wrist on his shoulder. Huang Yehan smiled, is it a man? Feelings for women often start with sympathy, but now is not the time to fall in love. He shook his head helplessly, "I have to go back to drink!"
Liang Mu tightened him, "How about doing me a favor?"
Huang Yehan patted his thigh and agreed happily, "Ok, how about you transport half of the goods for me in a few days?"
"Are you blackmailing?" Liang Mu had already frowned coldly, and Huang Yehan shrugged his shoulders innocently, "This is called the wisher to take the bait."
"Okay, it's done." Hearing Liang Mu squeeze out of his teeth, Huang Yehan went upstairs with a smile, invited the little woman playing the piano very quickly, sat next to him, and picked up wine and vegetables for him, with a very affectionate posture.
With her disappearance, Li Erniang kept seeing the end and cursed in a low voice, "It turned out to be a trick!" What a cheap taste."
"Sister-in-law, what do you think is the taste?" Ruoyun was chatting with Pei Yun, so she listened to her taste and thought she didn't like the dishes. She asked worriedly. Li Erniang blushed and waved her hand quickly, "The taste is very good. I just like this heavy taste."
"As long as you like it, as long as you like it." After saying that, she held the wine cup in her hand and went to toast and chat with all the face-to-faced ladies. However, she was busy and didn't touch the ground. After a while, the strange singing trick had long been thrown away and drank dizzy. Finally, Mrs. Qin and He took her back.
He also heard something, but there are some things that she can't say to Ruo, who is used to be competitive. What she can do is to hide it and let her father-in-law persuade Lian Mu not to do stupid things and ruin this good marriage. However, every time Lian Mu mentions this matter, it is righteous and says that it has nothing to do with her. , it is purely a market rumor.
But after all, he is a man. If a man has money, it is easy to learn bad. How can He have suffered a lot of suffering? How can he not know that if she is kind to her, although He always squeezes her, she will never do anything to hurt her.
So when facing Mrs. Qin's doubts, He also chose to hide it without mentioning a word and said, "Now there is no good thing. He has been thinking about climbing dragons and attaching phoenixes all day long. He thought that he knew the nobleman and got his reward, but he moved his crooked thoughts and stared at it without looking at what kind of person he was."
Although Mrs. Qin felt that she was reasonable, she felt strange when she recalled the woman's look and the strangeness when the man came up, but she couldn't say that it was strange.
