Chapter 748 Departure (2)
Cuiwei knew that the old lady would definitely ask carefully, so she had already thought up an excuse: "The emperor was seriously ill a few days ago, and the lady was on duty in the palace for several nights, and she was really tired. On weekdays, the ladies at home did not see their greetings. , just resting every day.”

Mrs. Wang sighed: "Her errand looks bright, but it is actually mentally exhausted. Which woman would stay up late at this time? Let alone worrying about the safety of the emperor's dragon body."

Mrs. Song frowned and said: "You can't say that. Eat the king's salary, share your worries for the king."

Madam Jingnan also smiled and said: "Madam, don't worry, my niece is well versed in medicine and will definitely take care of her body."

Mrs. Wang sighed softly, ignored Mrs. Zhao, and only turned her head to ask Mrs. Ning: "How are the preparations for the family banquet going?"

A daughter-in-law in charge beside Ning said hurriedly: "The banquet is ready. Please move the old lady, uncle and wife to the other hall."

"Please." Mrs. Song stood up slowly, took Song Yayun's hand and said with a smile, "You sleep by my side tonight."

Song Yayun nodded obediently: "Old lady Xie has a preference."

Everyone got up and surrounded Mrs. Song and Mrs. Jingnan and walked into the side hall. Cuiwei deliberately slowed down and followed at the end, Yao Fengge quietly tugged on her sleeve, and asked in a low voice: "Sister, is everything okay? "

Cuiwei whispered: "Grandma also knows about the festivities between the eldest son and the wife, so the wife naturally doesn't want to come."

Yao Fengge sighed, and said with a sneer, "Of course I know, if it were me, I wouldn't come here either. I really don't know what the old lady thinks."

Speaking of the old lady, Cui Wei knew she couldn't talk too much, so she just smiled and didn't answer.

No matter how dissatisfied Yao Fengge was in his heart, he couldn't arrange the old lady's faults, so he had to keep his mouth shut.

The banquet was tasteless, and during the dinner, the old lady kept praising Song Yayun, saying that she has become more and more beautiful in the past two years, she has a good appearance and a good temper, after all, she is a lady, no matter how the family declines, she will also lose No less than everyone's ladylike temperament.

Cuiwei was naturally unhappy when she heard this, but she also knew that she had no reason to be unhappy here, no matter how she excelled outside, she was still a maidservant when she returned to Yao Mansion, so she just drank the soup silently, not much talk.

Ning sat beside her, kept bringing her vegetables, and whispered to her, while Yao Fengge on the other side seemed to be doing it on purpose, not talking about the old lady's words, but whispering to Cuiwei.

From Ning's and Yao Fengge's words, Cuiwei pieced together the reasons why the mother and daughter of the Song family came to the capital. It turned out that after the old lady of the Song family passed away, the Song family became more and more difficult.Song Yanqing, who was sent to the Fujian Navy, became addicted to gambling and broke military discipline by gambling and was sent home.

Later, he was accidentally injured and died because of a fight with someone in the casino.The mother and daughter of the Song family sued each other to the yamen, and finally got 1000 taels of silver in compensation, and then hurriedly settled Song Yanqing's funeral.

Because of Song Yanqing's bad reputation, Song Yayun didn't even have anyone to propose a marriage in the past two years. Seeing that the old girl in her twenties couldn't stay at home all the time, the mother and daughter discussed it and cleaned up the valuable things at home. Came to the capital to join the Yao family.

Mrs. Jingnan's purpose in coming to the capital is very clear, that is to find a good marriage for her daughter, as long as the other party's family is good, even if it is a dowry, she will not hesitate to dowry.

After hearing these words, Cuiwei silently found it funny.

A 20-year-old girl, no matter how good-looking she is, her family background has not been completed like this, will those noble families look up to her?Reluctantly Gao Pan can only be a stepmother at best.

Besides, dowry?How much money can the Song family provide for their daughter as a dowry?Has he already been defeated by that prodigal son Song Yanqing?
But Cuiwei can only think about these things in her heart, what about the Song family, she doesn't want to mess with a hair of her heart.

Mrs. Song, who was sitting in the upper position, directly regarded Cuiwei as nothing. In her eyes, Cuiwei was just a maid who went out from the Yao family.So she didn't even have the intention to talk to Cuiwei, she just thought about which house in the capital would have a suitable son to match Song Yayun.If this marriage was facilitated, she would be worthy of her natal family.

Mrs. Song drew a circle in her heart, and finally her heart brightened. She looked up at Yao Fengge who was sitting opposite, and asked, "I heard in a daze before that the three brothers of your Dingbeihoufu are separating. How is it going?" gone?"

Yao Fengge didn't know why the old lady suddenly changed the topic to herself, so she could only reply: "The major issues have been clearly separated. Only some small matters are still being discussed."

"Then how is your second uncle now? I heard he was promoted?" Mrs. Song asked again.

Yao Fengge immediately understood what the old lady meant, so she said with a smile: "Look at what the old lady said, how can a little aunt like me worry about the things in the second uncle's house?"

Mrs. Song immediately became upset: "Didn't you be in charge of the inner house of the Hou Mansion before? Besides, Ya Yun is your cousin. You don't worry about your second uncle's affairs, you should also worry about your cousin's affairs, right?"

"I guess what the old lady means. You go back and talk to the second wife in your house, she is the only elder on your side. She should also worry about her nephew." Madam Wang was busy Smooth things over for Yao Fengge.

Yao Fengge had no choice but to respond: "I'll just remember what the old lady said."

After hearing this, Mrs. Song's complexion improved, and she turned to Mrs. Jing Nanbo to explain Su Yu'an's situation in detail.Mrs. Jingnan was naturally willing after hearing this.Song Yayun blushed a long time ago, and found an excuse to hide.

It was already late at night when Cuiwei came back from Yao's Mansion, and she didn't go there when she heard that Madam had already rested.

Originally Yao Yanyu said that Cuiwei and Ge Hai were married, and she paid to buy the land behind Tang Xiaoyi's mansion to build a yard for them two, but Cuiwei disagreed, saying that she was used to living in the general's mansion, and hoped that Madam would give She kept this small yard so that it would be convenient for her to come here in the morning and evening.Yao Yanyu also felt that she was inseparable from her, so she gave the couple to live in a second courtyard with five buildings and east and west wing rooms in the Dongkua courtyard.

Early the next morning, before breakfast, Cuiwei heard that the general was out, so she came over to Yan'an Hall.

Yao Yanyu had just finished washing up and was about to have breakfast, when she saw her coming, she ordered Xiangru: "Add another pair of bowls and chopsticks."

Cuiwei didn't shirk, she sat down and had breakfast with Yao Yanyu, and after the meal, she explained in detail the plans of Mrs. Jingnan, mother and daughter, and the reason why they came to the capital to join Yao's family.

Yao Yanyu was silent for a while.Cuiwei said again: "The old lady meant to match up the second master of the Dingbeihou Mansion and Miss Song. The aunt and grandma didn't want to meddle in such trivial matters, so the old lady lost her face on the spot."
