Do you know: I’m Xu Jiazi

Mother Liu held the handkerchief and stood aside and continued: "Madam, it's been a few days since the Lantern Festival, and the Yuan family is on their way to our Yangzhou. Our family must buy properly and prepare carefully! When the time comes, The official family members of the Yangzhou Prefecture are all coming to our house. If the reception is not good and something goes wrong, it will be a loss of face for our Wang family and Sheng family.

"Besides, you just made the old lady faint, so you must not do anything else."

Wang couldn't bear the mention of face anymore, clapped her hands on the table and said:

"Humph, what kind of face, what kind of joke? I am just a joke! I have been oppressed by a concubine and a cheap maid these past few years."

Liu's mother advised: "Madam, in the past few years, our eldest sister's marriage is the only one in Yangzhou! So what if those officials and family members are laughing? Can they have such a good marriage as ours?"

Wang said with a look full of disdain: "Hey, they do think so."

Mother Liu knew that her eldest wife had to smooth things over, so she continued: "Yes, after our eldest sister has finished the reception banquet in a grand manner, if they talk about this again, you can ask her where her daughter is married and what kind of official she is."

As if thinking of the proud scene in the future, Wang said with a look on her face: "Then don't choke them to death."

"Besides, the presence of the eldest sister at the old lady's place will surely untie the knot in the old lady's mind. After all, none of us knew about this matter. It was really an unintentional mistake."

"Yeah! I didn't know it would be like this! Fortunately, the old lady is fine!"

Liu's mother sighed and said worriedly: "But the doctor just said that the old lady wants to raise a child. There are three sisters in the house. If Lin Qige comes over."

"Her? This bastard's daughter can't get through. Don't you know that this bastard can't even get through the door of Shou'antang?"

"Madam, what if the master says it? Most of the affairs in the family are now decided by the master." Liu's mother said solemnly.

Wang stopped talking. She and her officials went to Shou'an Hall to pay their respects in the past few years, and found that Sheng Hong asked the old lady for instructions on more and more family matters, and the old lady always let Sheng Hong make his own decisions.

The old lady took the initiative to delegate power and detained herself in a courtyard like Shou'an Hall.

As the Lord, if Sheng Hong really made a strong request, the old lady would definitely consider it.

Mrs. Wang curled her lips and said with a sneer: "Isn't there another one in the side courtyard? If you buy her in, it will be of no use and she will just huddle in your own courtyard."

Mother Liu didn't say anything. She was still in the Wang family at that time, and the Wang family didn't ask her to dowry when they got married. They asked for another rich mother who was sweet-tongued and could please others.

As a result, Qian's mother was just sweet-talking and could not do anything else. She was defeated by Lin Sushuang, and she actually let her concubine give birth to a son!

Mrs. Wang wrote to the Wang family crying and complained that Mrs. Wang sent Mrs. Liu over. She originally wanted to buy a coquettish concubine and share Lin Sushuang's favor. However, it turned out that Mrs. Wang seemed to have a psychological shadow on the coquettish woman and did not let her in.

Mrs. Wang couldn't resist, so she had to buy the daughter of a scholar from a poor family and send it to her.

When Wang saw that Wei was an honest person who didn't cause trouble, she put her on Sheng Hong's bed.

I really want the horse to run well, but also want the horse to eat less.

However, the effect was achieved, and Mother Liu stabilized the situation. However, her eldest wife was too capable. She failed to grasp the key points every time she started the group, and her ability to not grasp the key points was incredible.

Lin Sushuang escaped several times with residual blood and made a comeback.

Mother Liu could only try her best to make up for it.

Mother Liu said: "The one in the side courtyard is still effective. Madam, you are reluctant to let me go. If it were not for the sixth girl, the old lady would have no choice but to ask for Mo Lan. I saw that Miss Wei is also a scheming person, and said Maybe I can compete in front of the old lady."

"Her? Huh! That useless thing! She has a scheming plan!"

Shengjia

big kitchen,

A fat and dark woman said: "Miss Xiaodie, there is only so much food in the kitchen now, and that's really all the charcoal. It's all for you."

Wei Shuyi's female envoy Xiaodie argued: "Ms. Guan, the carbon is not even a pound, the food is not enough, and the ingredients for the tea are not given at all. How can you be so deprived! What should I do? Sign and pledge!"

The Fat Hei Lady said, "I'm sorry, Miss Xiaodie. You have to sign and pledge your food when you receive the food. If you don't sign and pledge, you can't take this thing with you at all."

"You!" Xiaodie was furious and just wanted to give this woman a slap.

But people had to bow their heads under the eaves. Before coming, Wei Shuyi told her not to conflict with others, so she could only swallow this hard.

Xiaodie gritted her teeth and nodded: "Okay, I'll sign."

After signing and signing, Xiaodie left the place angrily holding her things.

After a while, Zhou Xueniang came over with her hands clasped in front of her belly holding a handkerchief. When Guanzi saw it, she hurriedly came over.

Zhou Xueniang walked slowly and asked in a low voice: "Has the signature been signed?"

"Go back to Mrs. Zhou and sign it."

"That's good."

Lady Guan asked carefully: "Mrs. Zhou, what use can this do?"

Zhou Xueniang held her head high and raised her chin. She could vaguely see Lin Sushuang's figure. She glanced at Madam Guan with disdain from the corner of her eyes and said softly:

"Idiot! These things either went into the stomach or into the charcoal basin. She said she didn't get it? Can she find it? But our booklet has black and white writing on it, and there are signatures and drawings on it."

Madam Guan said flatteringly: "What Madam Zhou said is that they have no evidence. Our hands are full of fingerprints and signatures, and she has no place to sue."

"Humph, what kind of thing are you fighting with our little ladies! No carbon will be allowed into their yard tomorrow."

Lady Guan quickly said yes.

Facing the north wind,

Xiaodie arrived at the side courtyard with the things she had brought. Fortunately, she had a cotton-filled jacket on her body, so the cold wind didn't come in much.

I opened the curtain and entered the house. It was noon and there was no sunlight and it was even colder than outside.

It's windy today, so we can't embroider outside.

Under the window, Wei Shuyi embroidered a few stitches, then quickly put his hand to his mouth to breathe.

"Mom, just bring these back."

Minglan and Xiaotao on the side looked at the things in the basket and complained: "Why are there so few!"

After setting out the food, Minglan took a few pieces of meat into Wei Shuyi's bowl with chopsticks and said, "Mother, you eat meat."

"You can eat, mother is not hungry." After saying that, Wei Shuyi directly gave the rice in the bowl to Minglan.

Then, Wei Shuyi ordered: "Xiaodie, go and sell this veil this afternoon, collect enough three taels of silver, and send it to my sister."

Xiaodie hesitated and said: "Yes, little girl. But what should we do in the house? Why don't we leave a tael of silver?"

Wei Shuyi took out a hairpin from his bun and said, "There are still some things, take them and sell them."

"Small"

"You didn't even listen to what I said?" Wei Shu asked.

"But without this hairpin, your dowry is gone." Xiaodie said depressedly.

"There's more! Go ahead."

"Yes, little girl."

Minglan, nicknamed Xiaojiujiu with her two nicknames, came to her mother's side, lifted up her cotton-padded clothes and said:

"Mom, please put your hand in and warm yourself up. These velvet clothes are very warm!"

Xiao Tao also came over: "Mom, it's warm here too."

"Good boy, go and get some soup." Wei Shu said with interest.

Minglan and Xiaotao looked at each other and their eyes lit up.

"That's right! Why did I forget about Yu Pozi!"

yard.

Xiaodie walked across the alley and arrived at the side door of the Sheng Mansion. Looking at the Sheng family servant standing at the door, she signed her name in the book according to the rules.

Behind her, several eyes followed her figure and disappeared outside the door.

I’ll update one chapter first. I can’t guarantee the time for the next chapter, but I’ll try my best to update four chapters today!

Chapter 4 counts as monthly ticket and extra updates.
