green bamboo dream

For a moment, everyone in the room looked at Mrs. Liang, a little unbelievable, how could anyone ask others to bring their daughter home, what was this second wife thinking?

"Didn't I just go there a few days ago, and I thought about it again after these few days. It really is a child who is ignorant." []" Fan was afraid that the second and third bedrooms would be dissatisfied with the family property, and they colluded to think of something bad. My idea is that I don't want those two rooms to have close contact.

Yu Zhu sneered secretly, what a joke, I used to take care of my face, but now that the family is divided, do you still expect me to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and be used as a raft by you?Immediately, he bluntly pretended to be confused, and said hesitantly: "It's better not to, I'm afraid, the last time the second aunt and sister Mei went, the mother bleed a lot... the mother is not well yet."

In the blink of an eye, he quickly glanced at the old lady's face, and he was really shocked. He knew that since his family hadn't come to file a complaint, Mrs. Liang would definitely not take the initiative to tell the truth.

"What's the matter, Zhu girl, tell me clearly, your mother's miscarriage is because of your second aunt?" Shi suddenly became anxious, she hadn't hugged her own grandson for many years, when the news of Cui's miscarriage came, she felt uncomfortable She didn't close her eyes all night, and got up before dawn to recite the mantra for the child who was only over a month old... She knew about Liang's past, but she never expected that it was related to the miscarriage of the third daughter-in-law. Her eyes gave Liang a hard look, with deep disgust.

Yuzhu pretended not to see Yumei's eager look, and squeezed out two tears: "The doctor said that he was overworked a few days ago, and he was frightened that time..." He took out his handkerchief and wiped his tears, But he forgot that the veil was wiped with ginger juice, and burst into tears.

Lin Yuanzhi and Lin Zongyan also became sad, looking at Mrs. Liang very unkindly.

It caused Cui's miscarriage, and he hurriedly sent his daughter to someone else, is it because he thinks that the harm is not enough?

……

In the end, Mrs. Liang failed to get on the boat of the third bedroom, and Mrs. Fan simply hinted that the kitchen was not allowed to prepare anything for the second bedroom. A small courtyard was moved in, and the house in Beijing was extremely expensive. Such a large expenditure made Liang's heart ache, and he lost his affection for his daughter... This is another story.

When Lin Zongyan's wedding was approaching, Cui could finally get out of bed. Although according to the saying of confinement, it would take some time, but this marriage of Luo's son can't be handed over to the girl who has not left the court.

After the make-up was urged, the Du family quickly brought over the dowry, and put it in most of the courtyard. The furniture included beds, tables, chairs, screens, etc., and even toilets. They were also tied with joyful red silk, and the clothes and fabrics were fashionable styles. , there are dozens of large boxes, as well as all kinds of hairpin jewelry, and there are quite a few plates filled with pearls and precious stones, and there are even birthstones...

Because I want to put my makeup on, I put it in the yard, my eyes are full of golden light, Yuzhu is dizzy, isn't it Yushi?In Yu Zhu's heart, Yu Shi is the kind of poor and skinny old man who complains at every turn, and likes to play dead remonstrance when he has nothing to do, but he has a rich family.

Cui's bag was airtight, and he sat on the chair and smiled straight: "Little money fan, what is there to envy, don't look at the gold and silver, what's the use, Zhuangzi's shop has very little property, mother It’s not like this to buy you a dowry.”

Mother Liu also smiled and explained Yu Zhu's doubts: "Miss should also know that being a daughter-in-law is not as comfortable as being in a boudoir. If the dowry is rich, she can straighten her back, because she eats, drinks, chews, and uses it all. Her own money is no better than receiving her husband’s. But this richness is not just for appearance. Some mistresses in Beijing hate concubine daughters and don’t want to bear a bad reputation, so they prepare some expensive furniture and jewelry for concubine daughters. If you pick up those with poor income, you will not be given the money at the bottom of the box. You will know when someone gets married. You must not be a big piece of furniture. Yin Zi's life is naturally tight, and he will not suffer a lot of idleness."

"But this sister-in-law is a descendant, and Mrs. Du is also his biological mother, how could she treat her like this?" After Yu Zhu realized it, she still felt incredible, this is not a stepmother, why should she treat her biological daughter like this.

Cui smiled and pulled Yu Zhu into her arms, and pinched her face affectionately: "My Zhu girl has been taking care of the family for my mother for a few days, but she has a lot of brains." This is not a roundabout way. Did she not use her brain before, Yu Zhu immediately wanted to resist, and suddenly thought that Cui's body was not in good shape, so she had to be ravaged obediently.

Mrs. Cui was addicted to her daughter's smooth and tender face, and then told her in detail: "Mrs. Du is just a scholar's daughter. She was married before Mrs. Du was elected. She has only one son and one daughter under her knees. The son Younger than a daughter, it is the first time she is married to a concubine, so she is a little... unskilled in these things. Mrs. Du is a high-minded person, and she doesn't need his wife to curry favor with her. This Mrs. Du is also very 'blunt' in the social circle of those wives in the capital. one of the people."

What Cui said was euphemistic enough but also clear enough, Yuzhu is silent, this is a good fortune, to meet such a husband, in fact, no matter if it is a lady from a big family, a jade from a small family or a woman from an ordinary family, who has no edges and corners before getting married, It's just all kinds of hardships, grievances and forbearance after marriage that slowly smoothed her out. In fact, how painful and helpless it must be for those edges and corners to disappear...

Yu Zhu buried her face in Cui Shi's warm neck, she knew that since returning to Beijing, Cui Shi would pay attention to visit her every time she went out to socialize and have banquets, for fear that she would not find a good family in the future, but again No good family will have such a warm and safe home.After being depressed for a while, she went to the small kitchen to look for food lively again. She is really not the kind of person who is easily sentimental, and it is in line with her style that soldiers come to cover up water and earth.

There is nothing for a lady who has not left the court to participate in such a thing as marriage, let alone go to the wedding banquet, even the bridal chamber is only for the entertainment of married women, so it was not until the next morning when Yu Zhu saw a bright red couple.

Miaoyin is going to be called Du Shi now, and I saw her wearing a scarlet makeup, satin pan and gold embroidered beige, and a horse-faced skirt of silk with gold and clouds underneath, and a peony-like gemstone in gold and silk on her head. , followed by Lin Zongyan and bowed down to Lin Yuanzhi and Cui Yingying, appearing extremely respectful and polite.

Last time at the Zhixin meeting, I only saw her briefly, and I only remembered that she was a girl who loves embroidery. Looking carefully at this moment, I saw her plump face, with apple-like powder, and her eyelashes were wide open. She was trembling slightly and seemed a little nervous, and then looked at the small mouth covered in red rouge, Yuzhu suddenly opened her mouth wide in surprise, and couldn't help but rubbed her eyes with her hands, then... what is that?

Looking sideways at the elder brother who is a little more "vigorous" than before, do you always have such energy? What kind of madness did you go through last night? Yu Zhu looked at the teeth that could not be completely covered by rouge. Yin began to think about it, but he couldn't see that the big brother who was as big as wood was actually a sullen person, how could he be so unsympathetic...

"Miss... miss."

In a trance, Yuzhu felt the strength of Hua Ruo pulling her sleeve, and immediately used the way she used to deal with when she was called by the teacher to catch up on sleep in the class in her previous life: a very standard shy smile quickly hung on the corner of her mouth, and she sincerely looked at the helpless Cui Shi .

It turned out that Mrs. Cui had already received the tea offered by her daughter-in-law, and gave a red envelope and a meeting gift.When the two younger sisters greeted their brother and sister-in-law, Mrs. Du had already prepared three delicate embroidered purses, and they were sending them to Yuzhu.

"You little girl, you dare to be in a daze in front of your new sister-in-law, but you want to be beaten." Seeing that her daughter-in-law behaves well, she is also a good-natured woman, and even the maid's mother who is accompanying her is also dignified and well-behaved. Discontent due to dowry.

Yu Zhu smiled sweetly, and said coquettishly: "It's because I saw how different my elder brother is today. That's why I saw it. You can't blame me." As she spoke, she handed over a piece of embroidery that she had embroidered with great effort. After leaving Mrs. Du, he said with a smile: "Don't mind sister-in-law, Zhu'er will make amends for you."

Although Du's mother, Wang, is unreliable, Du's heart is tight, she sent someone to inquire about the situation in this mansion, and while she was grateful to her father for arranging such a good family for her, she was secretly vigilant, mother-in-law It's not easy to fool, you must be careful, and you can't make a wrong step.

Not daring to accept the gift from the most favored sister-in-law, Mrs. Du didn't care to look at the embroidery carefully, and hurriedly changed the topic with a smile.

"Don't indulge her, this girl is confused, you, as a sister-in-law, must help discipline her." Lin Zongyan saw that Du Shi was a little stiff, and rarely defended her.

Cui Shi and Lin Yuanzhi looked at each other, knowing that the eldest son was satisfied with this daughter-in-law, they both smiled.

"It's a pity, Brother Ji can't come back in time, why is it so unlucky." Seeing the newlyweds leaving together after the ceremony, Cui Shi suddenly sighed and thought of her youngest son again.

Lin Yuanzhi was slowly drinking tea with a red-glazed teacup with milk nails and willow bucket pattern. Hearing this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Didn't their battalion just happen to be taken to train by the second master of the Cheng family? Well, if you don’t learn more skills, how can you gain a foothold in the future?” Patting his wife’s hand under the sleeve, he comforted him: “Okay, I’m also a mother-in-law, and I’ll leave it to my daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law to practice if I have anything to do in the future. Let’s talk about taking care of yourself.”

"My lord dislikes me for being old." Cui Shi glanced over charmingly, but he obediently supported Liu Ma's hand into the inner room.

Lin Yuanzhi walked out with a smile on his face, intending to read a book in the study outside.

Having just left the Yimen Gate, Li Guan, who has now been promoted to the head housekeeper, approached with a strange expression and said, "Master, something happened to the song Ji sent by Mr. Zou."

Frowning, Lin Yuanzhi asked rather strangely: "But you're sick?" Then he smiled mockingly: "Could it be that you'll be dissatisfied with changing places in the capital?" In short, the women who heard that there was a problem felt a little psychologically disturbed.

"No." Li Guan gritted his teeth, tried not to laugh, and said, "Miss Qing Lu was caught in a mousetrap, and she couldn't open her eyes from crying."

"Pfft——" Lin Yuanzhi didn't hold back when he heard it, coughed a few times before regaining his seriousness, and the corners of his mouth still couldn't help but curl up: "What's going on, how did you get caught in a mousetrap? "

Li Guan brewed a sentence, and struggled to speak: "A few days ago, the housekeeper of the second lady heard that there were mice in the mother-in-law's garden below, so he ordered someone to buy some mouse traps and put them in a remote place... the whole house went back and forth. Every woman and servant girl in the sweeping room was caught, and Miss Qing Lu bumped into them somehow."

Lin Yuanzhi shook his head, smiled, and sighed: "I guess it's Zhu girl who is naughty, and she is the only one who thinks of this kind of trick." A well-behaved woman, if you don’t stay in your own yard and run around, go and find her a doctor with a strict mouth, and tell her not to go out in the future.”

Li Guan bowed his back and agreed, but after thinking about it, he still didn't tell about An Sheng's matter that the young lady asked Citron to smear the tasteless potion on Qinglu's handkerchief. When a tired young lady is scolded, it's no wonder she doesn't give herself a hard cut when the wife gets better.
