There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 538 Purpose

"Miss Li, what are you looking at?" Wushuang followed her gaze and looked forward.

Two women, a master and a servant, have just walked through the path ahead.

"The second wife of the Li family." Li Jiaoniang said.

As long as it's not a personal matter related to her, Li Jiaoniang will not hide it from Wushuang.

If you hide too much, it will arouse Wushuang's suspicion.

This girl is a clever ghost.

"The second wife of the Li family? The woman who bullied Mrs. Li?" Wushuang said coldly, "Do you want me to beat her up?"

Li Jiaoniang: "..."

This violent girl has a good temper!
However, without knowing anything about the situation, he rashly beat Mrs. Li, fearing that someone would take it down.

"I'm just curious, what is she doing. Why is she here?" Li Jiaoniang narrowed her eyes.

The lady in charge of Zhao Shicheng's mansion said at this time, "Miss Li, you mean that lady? By the way, she came with Mr. Qin's wife."

It turned out to be like this...

"So I'm here as a guest, so there's nothing to do, let's go, go for a walk." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile.

The lady in charge of Zhao Shicheng's family brought Li Jiaoniang's master and servant into the warm pavilion in front, and then left.

There are female family members of Zhao Shicheng's family here, so Li Jiaoniang will not be neglected.

A dozen female relatives greeted Li Jiaoniang one after another.

Zhao Shicheng's family stood in line with Zhao Cong and supported Zhao Cong's competition for the crown prince.

And Li Jiaoniang is Zhao Cong's adoptive mother, so the women of Zhao Shicheng's family were very enthusiastic when they saw Li Jiaoniang.

It must be a person on the same front.

After being seated, tea is served.

While waiting for some tea, Li Jiaoniang whispered to Wushuang, "Did you remember that woman just now?"

Wushuang asked, "Is Mrs. Li talking about Mrs. Li?"

Li Jiaoniang said, "It's her. Find her and follow her quietly to see what she's here for. Don't cause trouble at the wedding banquet. After you find out, report it to me immediately."

Mrs. Li and Zhao Shicheng have no friendship, so it's really strange to come here as a guest.

Could it be that he approached Qin Xi on purpose?
Wushuang replied, "Understood."

After leaving this teahouse, Wushuang's footsteps were like flying, and she quickly disappeared.

Li Jiaoniang was surprised again.

Look at this skill, it looks like he knows martial arts.

No wonder Wushuang didn't complain of being tired when she went shopping yesterday, and she walked with ease while carrying a bag of food.

Love is practiced.

Li Jiaoniang frowned, it seemed that she couldn't collide with this girl, she could only coax her.

Otherwise, she might be at a disadvantage in the fight.

……

Wushuang left the teahouse and returned to the place where she met Mrs. Li just now.

Relying on her memory, she followed the route taken by Mrs. Li Er.

After inquiring about the two maidservants in the mansion, Wushuang found Mrs. Li Er.

At this time, Mrs. Li was talking to Qin Xie.

"Master Qin, what's your opinion after seeing my little girl's paintings last time?" Mrs. Li asked with a smile as she poured tea into the teacup in front of Qin Xie while holding the teapot.

After pouring the tea, he took a square handkerchief from his sleeve and put it on the table.

It was a square pink silk handkerchief.

On the corner of the handkerchief, there is a lifelike little rabbit embroidered.

Qin Xi glanced at the handkerchief, narrowed his eyes, pinched the tip of his mustache and smiled, "Not bad, but there are still some things to improve, how about this, tell her to go to Molinfang the day after tomorrow, where can I give her Give me some pointers on drawing skills."

"Then thank you very much." Mrs. Li got up, saluted Qin Xi, and left with an excited face.

Qin Xi squeezed the handkerchief in his hand, put it under his nose and smelled it, with a wretched and smug expression on his face.

Wushuangxiu frowned and curled her lips.

"Li Peiyu? Good name." Qin Xi laughed, stuffed the handkerchief into his arms, got up and left.

Wushuang also retreated quietly and returned to the Nuan Pavilion.

She told Li Jiaoniang what she overheard and saw in detail.

Li Jiaoniang smiled coldly, "Sure enough, I guessed it right."

Wushuang was curious, "Miss Li, guess what?"

Li Jiaoniang raised the corners of her lips, "After Mrs. Li's daughter was divorced by the Mu family, she clinged to Qin Xie again. But Qin Xie's character is even worse than that Mu Xuan's! Those mothers must be I will commit my own crimes and die!"

Wushuang suddenly said, "So that's the case, then just ignore her and let her suffer a lot, then you will know the good and the bad."

……

A banquet was going on very lively, and in a blink of an eye, it was afternoon.

Li Jiaoniang chatted with Zhao Shicheng's family as usual, and she could only go back after the evening worship.

When everyone was chatting lively, a woman in charge hurried over and whispered to Zhao Shicheng's mother.

Mrs. Zhao's expression suddenly changed.

Everyone looked at her.

The other female family members of the Zhao family asked, "Auntie, what happened?"

"Siblings, what's the matter?"

Mrs. Zhao said awkwardly, "It's nothing. I'm counting the people who are going to welcome the relatives. There are too many people. I don't know how to make a decision."

A woman over there said, "Sister-in-law, what is there to decide? Everyone is going, so let's all go. If my Shiro is old enough, I will let him go. Unfortunately, he is only five years old, and even the bride is What do you mean, he doesn't know yet!"

After speaking, he laughed.

Another woman said, "Yes, Auntie, if everyone is going, let them go. The more people there are, the more lively it will be."

According to the custom of marrying a girl from far away, after the bride's wedding team arrives outside the city, it's time for the groom's family's welcoming team to arrive.

On the man's side, in order to show the sincerity of the marriage, they have always sent as many unmarried men with high status.

Originally, the Wang family agreed to go there, but something went wrong, the Wang family got angry, and all the younger generations of the Wang family left.

As soon as the three young men from the Wang family left, the young masters from the Wang family who were acquainted with each other followed suit.

After counting, there are only six young men who agreed to go to greet the relatives, plus Zhao Shicheng, one of his younger brothers and one of his cousins.

too few people.

It's too shabby, and it's not as good as a poor family marrying a wife.

People in the Tang family must have ideas.

The Tang family brought a hundred liters of dowry and only sent six young men to welcome the bride, but it was really unreasonable.

But how could Zhao Shicheng's mother tell others about this kind of thing?
Isn't this making a fool of yourself?

At most, she can only tell her immediate family members that she must never tell the truth to these offshoots who are asking questions.

Two of them are still gossips, so it's not certain how Cheng Enbo Mansion will be arranged.

In order to cover up her gaffe, Zhao Shicheng's mother lied and said, "That's right, Shicheng arranged it like this, but the person in charge must say that there are too many people, and it will be too chaotic when we arrive at Shili Ting Haoli and have no place to stand."

"Is this a waste manager? Can't arrange such things? If there are too many people, don't they just line up?" An older woman scolded Zhao Shicheng's mother.

Mrs. Zhao still just said, "Yes, this arrangement is very good." She stood up and said with a smile, "You guys have some tea, I'll come when I see it."

"Go, go, you have to work hard inside and out, and it's hard enough." An old lady of the Zhao family waved her hand, "You can relax when a girl from the Tang family marries into the mansion. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law work together. Steward."

Mrs. Zhao smiled sarcastically, said excuse me, and left here.

Their discussion aroused Li Jiaoniang's curiosity.

The boy who greeted his relatives?
Too many people?

Why worry too much?Eighty percent is too little.

Li Jiaoniang's eyes turned slightly, if there were few people, she would have someone here to help.

Zhao Gui and Zhao Cong are not young men?

Wouldn't it be enough to send it?

Li Jiaoniang found an excuse, saying that she was looking for acquaintances, said sorry to several older Zhao family members, nodded to a woman in charge, and left here.

Walking through a row of verandahs, Li Jiaoniang said to the lady in charge, "there are too many outside men in the men's family, so it is inconvenient for me to go in and find someone, so please help me to invite Zhao Tong, Cheng Enbo's book boy, and say, I have something important to do." ask him."

She paid the lady for running errands.

The lady in charge smiled and said, "It's not difficult, Mrs. Li, wait a moment, I'll be right there."

Wushuang's approach is that if Li Jiaoniang doesn't tell, she doesn't ask.

The two stood there and waited.

Without waiting too long, Zhao Tong hurried over with the lady in charge.

Seeing Li Jiaoniang, Zhao Tong said happily, "Hello, Miss Li."

"Okay, okay." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile, dismissed the lady in charge, and then asked Zhao Tong solemnly, "Zhao Tong, brother Zhao's wedding, did something difficult happen?"

Zhao Tong sighed, "Miss Li, how do you know?"

Li Jiaoniang said, "I guessed it, otherwise, why would I ask you? I want to know what is so difficult, see if I can help."

Zhao Tong said, "Well, it is difficult to say that it is difficult, and it is not difficult to say that it is not a big deal. It is because our husband is too serious that it is difficult."

"..."

"According to the rules here, to welcome a girl to marry far away, some unmarried young men should be sent out of the city to meet the bride. It doesn't matter whether you are relatives or close friends."

"..."

"Originally there were eighteen people, but for some reason, when it came time to welcome the bride, everyone said that they had something to do and refused to go. The madam and the gentleman were very anxious."

"..."

"If it's not difficult, it's okay to go with fewer people, but I'm afraid the Tang family has ideas. My husband said that it would be disrespectful to the Tang family and the bride."

Sure enough, he was guessed right.

Li Jiaoniang said, "I really guessed it right. By the way, are there Prince Pu'an and Xuan Delang among the people who went to greet the relatives?"

Zhao Tong said, "How dare you invite them? Xuan Delang is a close relative of the official family, and the county king is now the prince. Our lord dare not make a mistake."

Li Jiaoniang said, "I'll invite them. You help invite the two of them over, and just say I'm looking for them."

Zhao Tong was immediately happy when he heard that, that's right, no one else dared to invite those two brothers, but Li Jiaoniang was sure to be able to invite them.

Li Jiaoniang is their benefactor.

"Yes, Mrs. Li, I'll invite them here." Zhao Tong ran away happily.

Not long after, Zhao Cong and Zhao Gui came together.

Li Jiaoniang told them about the matter.

Zhao Cong immediately said, "It turns out that Uncle Cheng En is in trouble, so we'll go and help."
