Do you know: I’m Xu Jiazi

On the wedding day,

The team welcoming the bride has gone away, and the people watching at the intersection have also dispersed.

Wei Yuyi walked with Jingchai, the woman in a sarong whom he had just talked to.

Pointing to the facade with the plaque 'Qiaoji Aquatic Products Shop', the woman said:

"Ms. Wei, look, this is the fish shop you are looking for."

"Thank you."

Seeing the three people at the door pointing at the door, the waiter inside hurriedly walked out and asked with a smile:

"Guys, it's still cold outside, please come inside and see if there's anything you like!"

Wei Yuyi smiled and said: "Is there any in the store?"

He said and walked inside.

When the shopkeeper heard the voices, he looked up and saw Wei Yuyi and his wife dressed up. He waved to the waiter to greet him, then he walked over with a smile and said:

"Madam, we really have the fish you mentioned in our store. Can you choose one by looking at the one in the tank?"

The Bianjing woman who came with me did not go in, but was talking to the waiter who came out at the door.

The woman pointed at Wei Yuyi and said to the waiter who came out:

"From what he said, it sounded like he had just come to Bianjing! Just now, the yamen of Yongyihou's family greeted this lady, as if she was an old acquaintance."

Waiter: "Hey, Sister-in-law Niu, is this true?"

"Tsk! Why did I lie to you kid? Many people saw it at the intersection!"

The waiter nodded, hurriedly walked into the store, and whispered a few words in the shopkeeper's ear.

After listening to the waiter's words, the shopkeeper nodded and raised his chin to the woman at the door.

The waiter understood and caught a half-dead half-foot-sized fish in his net bag and went out to give Sister-in-law Niu a thank you gift.

inside the store,

Wei Yuyi looked at the fish in the big tank and discussed with her husband which one he wanted with a smile on his face.

The shopkeeper on the side smiled and cupped his hands and said:

"Madam, I would like to take the liberty to ask. I heard from the woman of the Niu family that you and your brother from the Yongyi Hou family are old acquaintances?"

Wei Yuyi turned around and put away his smile, glanced at the shopkeeper warily, continued to look at the vat and said:

"Old acquaintances don't count, just some roundabout relatives."

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then he quickly handed over his hands and said with an apologetic smile:

"Madam, please don't get me wrong. My employer's surname is Qiao. My ancestor married a noble daughter of the clan and passed down the title."

"The host family has a direct descendant, Jiulang, who is very close to the Xu family brother!"

"Before, the shop also delivered aquatic products to relatives of the Xu family, the Sheng family of Tanhualang in Linshui Lane!"

Wei Yuyi held the handkerchief, continued to look at the fish in the water, and said:

"Shopkeeper, I only know that there is a prosperous family in Jiying Lane, whose ancestors had Tanhualang. Which family in Linshui Lane are you talking about?"

The shopkeeper tapped his forehead and said, "Yes, yes, I remembered it wrong."

At this time, a young man's voice came from the door,

"Lao Hu, bring me a hundred silver notes for this young master."

Hearing the sound, shopkeeper Hu said: "Madam, please take your time, my Jiulang is here."

After saying that, he hurried over.

After a while,

Wei Yuyi and her husband took a fancy to a fish and beckoned the waiter to catch it in a net bag and weigh it.

She continued to pick up other aquatic products.

Shopkeeper Hu on the side handed over the banknotes and whispered a few words to Qiao Jiulang.

After Qiao Jiulang heard this, he came over, cupped his hands and said with a smile:

"This lady is so polite! Dare you use your surname?"

Wei Yuyi turned back to look at Qiao Jiulang, looking at him in expensive clothes, holding a handkerchief, squatted slightly and returned the salute, saying:

"It's polite in the office, so I don't have to give you the surname of Wei."

Qiao Jiulang's mind suddenly turned to his previous conversation with Chang Feng. He understood clearly and said with a smile:

"Brother Jing and I are very close. Is the eldest lady a relative of the Sheng family?"

Wei Yuyi said with a smile: "So."

Qiao Jiulang nodded, turned around and said:

"Okay! That's no problem! Lao Hu, give this lady some discounts."

"I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave."

Wei Yuyi said: "Go slowly inside the yamen."

About a quarter of an hour later,

Wei Yuyi and her husband were walking back carrying a bag of aquatic products.

"Madam, is this fish two kilograms? I think it's more than five or six kilograms! And these shrimps and crabs must be more than three kilograms."

"Sir, this is the store trying to reduce the price for us, lest we refuse to take it!"

"Let's go home and marinate these. I will go to Sheng's house tomorrow and invite my sister back!"

Wei Yuyi spoke with a smile on his face and walked towards the small courtyard with great enthusiasm.

Huyanjia

In the bright hall,

Hu Yanhai and Mrs. Pan sat on the two chairs at the top and looked at the young couple who walked in with a smile.

Sitting on the next chair were Anmei's two sisters-in-law.

At this time, Anmei had changed into a woman's bun.

When Anmei was still a girl before she got married, she could let her hair down.

You can have bangs on the front of the forehead, the hair on the sideburns can be worn, and the hair on the back of the head can also be worn.

After getting married, Anmei's hair on her front, back and temples had to be combed cleanly and solemnly.

This hairstyle makes Anmei look much more mature.

Hu Yanjiong and his wife served tea to their parents. Mrs. Pan smiled and waved her hand, and a female envoy came over holding a tray and a jewelry box.

"Anmei, these are some of the thoughts that Jiong'er's father and I have given you."

Xu Anmei stood up and was very surprised when she looked at the hairpins, necklaces, armbands, bracelets, rings, and earrings on the tray.

My sister Pingmei served tea on the second day of her wedding and received many gifts from Madam Bai.

When we returned to Xu's house before, the two sisters were whispering on the same bed. The sister told her about the specific quantity and style.

Anmei has no intention of comparing herself with her sister. After all, each family's situation is different.

But with these things in front of her, Anmei didn't believe Mrs. Pan didn't ask Mrs. Wu about them, because they were obviously prepared as double gifts from her sister!

"Mother, this is too expensive! My wife doesn't dare to have it!"

As she said that, Anmei glanced sideways at her two sisters-in-law.

But he only saw the smiles in the eyes of the two sisters-in-law.

Mrs. Pan smiled and said:

"Anmei, don't look at them! They have been living happily in Mizhou! When we came in, your mother-in-law and I gave them two ships as gifts from our Pan family!"

"With the money I earn now, I'm afraid I can buy three sets of jewelry like this."

An Mei looked at Mrs. Pan in surprise, and then at the two sisters-in-law.

Seeing An Mei's appearance, everyone in the room laughed.

"Sister-in-law, here is the gift that my sister-in-law and I gave you."

As he spoke, a nun came over holding an exquisite wooden box. The female servant on the side helped open the wooden box, and saw a very exquisite Guanyin statue inside.

Judging from the weight and material, most of them are made of gold.

"I wish you and Xiaojiong to have a son soon."

As soon as these words came out, An Mei and Hu Yanjiong both blushed. After looking at each other, they said in unison:

"Thank you, sister-in-law!"

Looking at the young couple after they sat down,

Mrs. Pan said: "You guys worked hard all day yesterday, so I won't let you eat today. Go ahead!"

"It's mother/mother-in-law."

With that said, the two of them got up and left the hall and walked outside.

Hearing the chuckle coming from the room, An Mei beat Hu Yanjiong bitterly.

After leaving the courtyard, Hu Yanjiong's servant Fu Ding followed, walking side by side with the female servant Ye'er.

"By the way, Fuding."

"Lady?"

"Is the dowry horse okay in the stable?"

"Back to the eldest lady, she is fed according to the old customs of the Marquis Mansion."

"That's good!"

The first quarter of Mao hour (around five o'clock in the morning)

It's still dark,

Jiying Lane,

The courtyard son of Shengjia Academy,

Chang Bai and Han Niu, the boy holding a lantern, crossed the threshold and walked in.

After a few steps, the master and the servant walked to the door of the school and opened the curtain at the door. Chang Bai was stunned for a moment.

When Changbai came in the past, the school must have been dark.

Today, he found a candle burning on the table diagonally across the corner.

Entering the school, Changbai said:

"Brother Jing? Why are you here so early today?"

Xu Zaijing raised his head and said, "I didn't have breakfast at home today, so I came a little early. Do you want to eat?"

As he spoke, he raised the meat bun in his hand.

Changbai smiled slightly and said, "I've eaten!"

In the gap between talking, Khan Niu had already lit the candle, walked to the back, and said hello to Yun Xiang, who was also chewing meat buns.

The sky outside is getting brighter,

After the candles were blown out, there were gradually more people in the school.

After finishing a question assigned by Xuexue Zhuang in the morning, there was a short break in the school.

Xu Zaijing sat on his seat, leaning his upper body against the wall. After taking a sip from the teacup handed over by Yun Xiang, he glanced at Sanlan.

Mo Lan was combing her hair with her hands, Ru Lan was lying on the table and taking a nap. Ming Lan put down her brush and stretched herself, but there was no look of happiness or admiration on her face?

Xu Zaijing rolled his eyes, handed the tea cup to Yun Xiang, stood up and walked around Minglan, looked at her writing, and said:

"Minglan, your cousin and I have just learned fortune-telling in the past few days. Look at your words."

Minglan: "What happened to the words?"

Xiao Xiaotao from behind also looked at Xu Zaijing with curiosity.

Xu Zaijing: "Want to know?"

Minglan and Xiaoxiaotao nodded together.

Xu Zaijing closed his eyes and frowned, with a profound look on his face. His thumb was still moving around on his knuckles. After a while, he opened his eyes and said:

"Minglan, based on your words, I can deduce that some relatives and friends may be coming to visit you in the next few days."

Looking at Minglan's look, Xu Zaijing said, "Don't believe it?"

Minglan nodded hesitantly and said, "Believe it!"

Xu Zaijing: "If you believe it, Chenghui, hexagram money, two drops of crispy bubble snails."

Xiao Xiaotao's eyes widened: Two? Wouldn't that mean that neither she nor the girl had anything to eat? !

Minglan: "Then I don't believe it!"

Ru Lan, who was dozing in front, suppressed a smile: "Shut up!"

Xu Zaijing pretended to be helpless and said:

"Minglan, there's no one like you!"

"Otherwise, if any relatives or friends come over these two days, you can give me four crispy bubble snails!"

"If you don't come, I'll give you three a box of fried cherries each!"

After hearing "cherry fried", Rulan stopped falling asleep and turned towards Minglan and said:

"Sixth sister, please promise me cousin! Cherry fried!"

Minglan looked at the eyes of the two sisters in front of her and nodded hesitantly.

Rest time is over,

Xu Zaijing and others continued to work on the topics assigned by Zhuang Xuexue.

During lunch,

The three orchids went back to their respective courtyards.

When Minglan brought Xiaoxiaotao to Shouantang,

Then I heard the laughter of my aunt Wang Ruofu coming from inside:

"Hahaha! Oh, her aunt tomorrow, what you said, I really need your blessing!"

Hearing this, Minglan and Xiaoxiaotao looked at each other in surprise, and then walked faster towards Shou'antang.

After lifting the curtain and entering the hall, Minglan saw a woman sitting on an embroidered pier. Who could she be if she wasn't an aunt?

Minglan hurriedly greeted the old lady and Wang Ruofu.

"Girl Ming, go to your aunt and let her take a closer look at you."

After hearing what her aunt said, Minglan glanced at the old lady and walked to Wei Yuyi.

Wei Yuyi smiled and touched Minglan's face and said, "The old lady and the eldest lady have troubled themselves. This girl is so fat!"

The old lady looked at Minglan and said, "This girl has nothing to do after school. She just follows Suqin to study delicious food. It's weird if she's not fat!"

Minglan lowered her head in embarrassment.

There was another burst of laughter in Shou'an Hall.

Wei Yuyi hugged Minglan and said with a smile:

"My sister told me before that before winter comes, my eldest sister will give her cloaks and cotton wool as soon as the weather gets cold. She is really a good girl with a kind heart!"

"This is indispensable for the teachings of the old lady and the eldest lady! She deserves such a good marriage!"

Wang Ruofu, who was sitting on the chair, smiled happily and showed his white teeth. He looked at each other and Liu's mother, shook his handkerchief and said:

"No aunt could say such a good thing!"

Wei Yuyi leaned forward slightly and said firmly: "Sister, this baby must be a young master!"

Wang Ruofu smiled even more heartily:

"Ouch! I also burn incense every day, please!"

"Although the in-laws of the Marquis Mansion told me that there is no rush, as our children are all the same, but we, the girl who is married to a senior citizen, mustn't we hurry up and bloom and bear fruit?"

After laughing, Wang Ruofu said melancholy: "The weather will get hotter then, and Hua'er will suffer from confinement!"

Wei Yuyi nodded.

The old lady smiled and looked at Wei Yuyi who was speaking, with great satisfaction in her eyes.

After taking a sip of tea, the old lady said:

"Her aunt, that's it. Chang Ming is still young, so I will take care of her."

"Tomorrow morning, I will ask Ming'er and her mother to go home in a carriage to see your mother."

"I will ask Ruan to follow with the servants. If you need any help, just ask."

After saying that, the old lady looked at Wang Ruofu and said, "Madam, is this okay?"

Wang Ruofu on the side smiled and said: "Okay, okay!"

When Minglan, who was in Wei Yuyi's arms, heard this, her eyes were full of surprise. She had never seen her mother since she was sensible!

The old lady smiled and continued: "Okay, the old lady is also tired. Tomorrow I will accompany my aunt to Jin'anzhai to visit."

Anzhai today,

Wei Yuyi looked at the sleeping child with a doting look on his face.

After taking a look at his sister, Wei Yuyi whispered: "You look more like me to my sister!"

Wei Xiaoniang smiled and said: "When Uncle Wei, the Lord's cousin, came to the Sheng family, when he saw Zhu'er, he said he looked more like the Lord."

Wei Yuyi looked at Chang Zhu in confusion: "Is there any?"

The child didn't know what he was dreaming about. He smacked his lips and the two sisters immediately became quiet.

Quietly walked outside and sat down,

Xiaodie took Minglan and Xiaotao, smiled and came over with tea and put it on the table.

Wei Xiaoniang held Wei Yuyi's hand and touched her arm. She looked at her sister and whispered:

"Are you so thin?"

Wei Yuyi smiled and said: "You have been walking for so long and the journey is so tiring. How can you not lose weight? Your brother-in-law has lost weight even more!"

"Then, our family will live in Bianjing from now on?"

Hearing what his sister said, Wei Yuyi nodded heavily and said, "Sister, we can't always let you stay so far away from us. I also take my father's tablet with me."

Wei Xiaoniang nodded and said: "Then please come to Yuqing Temple."

Minglan looked at her mother and aunt happily, completely forgetting that she had to pay four drops of cake.
