Chapter 548

It will be a few days before the Qi family returns to the mansion.

At the same time, a strange old woman came back with her.

The woman's hair is already white, her face is covered with wrinkles, her eyes are gentle, and a little smile is revealed through the corners of her eyes, which makes people feel good.

"Ge'er, come, come and see my aunt."

aunt?

Ye Chaoge suppressed his surprise and stepped forward to salute, "Chaoge greets my aunt."

The old woman got up and approached, stretched out her hand to support Ye Chaoge, with a smile on her lips, looked her over carefully, and nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, yes, she looks pretty and has a good manner, she is a good girl."

"Auntie praised it absurdly."

Qi Shi said absurd praise on his lips, but in fact he had already burst into laughter.

As a mother, what she is most willing to listen to is not when others praise herself, but her own children, no matter how much she praises, she doesn't feel bored.

All parents in the world are like this.

"By the way, Ge'er doesn't know Auntie, does she?"

Afterwards, Mrs. Qi introduced the old lady to Ye Chaoge.

Only after this did she know why this aunt was someone else.

Her maternal grandmother, Huo's family, came from the Huo family in Wenfu. Her family is huge, with big trees and luxuriant trees. It is one of the famous Qingliu families.

The Huo family comes from the direct line of the Huo family, with several sisters, two brothers and one sister.

And this aunt is Huo's sister.

The two sisters got married one after another, the elder sister went to another state with her husband, and the younger sister married to Shangjing and became the general's wife. Although the sisters were far apart, their relationship was never broken because of this, and there were countless letters between them every year.

Even if Mrs. Huo passed away, the relationship between the two families is still the same, but after all, they are separated by a long distance, and they have not seen each other for many years due to the fact that they are getting older in recent years.

Until not long ago, Qi Jiren personally wrote a letter and invited him to preside over the funeral ceremony for Ye Chaoge in the future.

My aunt's husband's family name is Zhuo. She is over [-] years old. She has three sons and a daughter. She is a pair of good characters. .

Virtue and talent are blessings, and they are honorable guests.

My aunt is old, and she was exhausted all the way, and she just arrived in Beijing yesterday.

"Auntie who has worked so hard to come to Beijing to pay respects to the younger generation, Chaoge is very grateful, thank you very much." After finishing speaking, Ye Chaoge solemnly saluted.

"You don't have to be like this, you don't have to be like this." The aunt waved her hand, "Your grandmother and I are siblings, and your mother is also my half daughter. Of course, you are also my granddaughter. Your grandmother is gone, so I will be my aunt." Yes, naturally it is obligatory, but after all, you are old and not as agile as young people, so don't dislike it."

"Auntie, what are you talking about? If you can come to preside over Ge'er's Jiji ceremony, my niece is already not grateful enough. Why would you dislike it?"

After talking for a while in the front hall, Qi Shi sent his aunt to Liushuangyuan to rest first.

Liushuangyuan is also one of the courtyards in the backyard. Although it is not as good as other main courtyards, it is quieter and has a good location.

Ye Chaoge ordered Madam Liu to send a few clever maids to Liushuang Garden to serve her, and sent Qing Lan there.

After arranging these things, the mother and daughter returned to Zhining Garden. After returning, she told her daughter about the relationship in detail.

The relationship between Qi Shi and her aunt is relatively close. When Huo Shi died, she was only a few years old. Qi Jiren led the troops outside. It was the aunt who came to support the general's mansion, take care of the young Qi Shi, and take care of her own sister. white matter.

"Speaking of which, my mother has always remembered my aunt's goodness. At that time, my mother was still young and didn't know anything. Later, my mother heard your grandfather say that at that time, my aunt had just given birth to your little cousin and uncle, and she didn't care about her health. Weak, he traveled a long distance to go to Beijing to take care of everything."

"It's just that the distance between the two families is quite far. Apart from sending people to give some things every year, everything else is done out of intention."

Speaking of this matter, Qi Shi was quite regretful.

Before getting married, she went there twice, and one year after getting married, she had Ye Cibai, and then she focused on her children. After a few years, when her daughter was lost, her mind was full of sadness.

It wasn't until yesterday, when she saw her aunt who came to Beijing, that she suddenly realized that so many years had passed, and her aunt back then had a full head of hair and was late in her twilight years.

"If mother feels ashamed of her aunt, why don't you take advantage of this time to spend time with my aunt, and ask my aunt to stay in Shangjing for a little longer after her daughter's wedding ceremony is over. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Qi's eyes lit up, it's a good decision.

Immediately decided to discuss with the aunt.

Lunch was served in the antechamber.

The meals were arranged by Ye Chaoge under Madam Liu's order, and they are relatively easy to digest, suitable for the elderly who have just gone through a long journey.

The aunt smiled blindly and praised repeatedly, Ye Chaoge resolutely gave all the credit to Qi Shi, saying it was her mother's filial piety.

After lunch, Mrs. Qi sent her aunt back to the guest house with her two children.

"Auntie, take a nap, and I'll come and accompany you around this Ye Mansion in the afternoon."

The aunt waved her hand, "I'm not in a hurry to go shopping in the garden. I've come to Ye Mansion right now, so I should pay a visit to your mother-in-law. Come and visit with me in the afternoon."

Qi Shi should go down.

In the afternoon, everyone went to Fulu Garden together.

The old lady's brows were obviously gentle, and she welcomed her aunt's arrival.

The two elders are similar in age, so they can chat well.

After that, the old lady would ask her aunt to go to her Fulu Garden from time to time, or go to Liushuang Garden by herself.

The two old ladies get along well.

Ye Chaoge didn't interfere with this, he got up every morning, went to Zhining Garden to pay his respects, and then went to Liushuang Garden with Qi Shi to pay his aunt.

The arrival of my aunt added a little excitement to this quiet Ye Mansion.

The days passed day by day in peace and tranquility.

In a blink of an eye, Ye Chaoge's birthday was approaching, and everyone in the mansion became busy.

On this day, Zhufeng came to Yiningyuan to ask Ye Chaoge to come over.

When going to Ningyuan, Mrs. Qi was holding a guest list to read. When she saw her daughter coming, she handed the list to her and asked her to see if there was anything she needed to add.

The list was drawn up by Nanny Chen and Nanny Liu, and it almost included female relatives from all the big and small families in Shangjing.

After Ye Chaoge read it, he said that there was nothing to add.

Qi Shi asked Nanny Chen and the others to go down and arrange to post a post and send it out as soon as possible.

After making all these arrangements, Qi said to her daughter: "Ge'er, have you decided on the praiser for the day?"

The praisers are those who assist the honored guests in saluting, and they are all friends or sisters of the Jizhe.

Ye Chaoge has no sisters, neither cousins ​​nor cousins. According to the regulations, the praisers must be selected from among friends.

Ye Chaoge shook his head.

"It's still early, you can decide slowly, and just tell Wei Niang when you're done."

After returning from Zhining Garden, Ye Chaoge began to think about who should be the best praiser.

In her previous life, when she was as young as Ji, her mother had already passed away, and the old lady was in charge of the arrangements.
