Foster son and husband

Chapter 236
It is only three days away from the fifteenth day of August. The rich and noble families are free and have nothing to do. They have carefully prepared for the festival. Recently, the atmosphere of the festival in the Xu family and the two houses is getting stronger. When you arrive at the waiting mansion, after thanking the emperor, you will go to the ancestral hall to burn incense and present your ancestors. The elders of the clan are also invited to be present. The old lady told the air in public in the ancestral hall: the ancestors are not the ancestors of one person, and no one eats alone. Still according to the old practice of previous years, the imperial gift items are distributed to the elders of the clan, and the rest are distributed to each house!
Xu Junying also felt uncomfortable when she saw the old grandmother acting like this. Everyone understands the truth, so why bother to act like that?It really makes people think that Meimei is petty, but in fact she is not that kind of petty person.Afraid that Meimei would be unhappy, she only looked at the female relatives, but she saw that Meimei was talking to Ning Rulan as if nothing had happened. Bai Jingyu walked over and said something to her. He glanced at him, then looked at the old lady, his eyes were indifferent and cold, without saying a word, he walked out of the ancestral hall with Bai Jingyu.

He smiled bitterly: Meimei's attitude is that she doesn't regard the old lady as a senior at all, and why did the old lady treat her as a junior?My grandmother, who has always been loving, just can't accommodate Meimei. This is another helpless thing, but it has something to do with me. I didn't marry Zhuang Yulan back then, but I married Qin Meiniang decisively. Now it seems that no matter what the choice is, it is hard to say whether it is right or wrong. After marrying Zhuang Yulan, his whole life would be so ordinary. It is impossible to have a Meimei who would destroy his liver and lungs. However, marrying the Qin family cost several lives, but Meimei came... Xu Junying sighed softly: If you let him If he chooses again, he will still choose the latter, waiting for Meimei to arrive!

You can blame him for being ruthless, but he can only follow his heart, without Meimei, no one, including himself, has any meaning in living!
Two days before the festival, the extra fresh fruit and food in the mansion and the regular money for the festival were also distributed to each house. Although the mansion has been divided, there is an old lady there, and the two mansions are headed by sisters-in-law. Give an example.Because of an accident at the fourth grandma’s natal family a while ago, her brother fell off a horse, and her mother was paralyzed in bed due to fright. Although she had already given money to the fourth wife to return to her natal home to visit and condolences, but thinking about the solar terms, Gan’s It should be because she wanted to subsidize her natal family, so Meimei discussed with Xu Junying that this festival, no matter the concubines, each room will distribute the regular silver and fruit according to the proportion of the descendants. Xu Xiaojuan, who received the bonus from the Gan family at the same time, found that the fourth sister-in-law was the same as hers, and immediately refused to accept it, so she ran to the old lady to make a fuss. Seeing Bai Jingyu was there, she asked about the bonus from the Xifu Festival. Bai Jingyu wondered if it was not the same?Xu Xiaojuan talked about the numbers in the Yuehua courtyard and the fourth grandma's room, and everyone knew that Hou's mansion did not distinguish between concubine and concubine. It happened that the fifth grandma of the West mansion, Mrs. Fang, listened to it all, and while the second wife was not here, she put her arms around Brother Shen The son sighed, but Bai Jingyu couldn't stand it, pointed at her and scolded her, Fang returned a few words weakly, tears couldn't stop, Ning Rulan couldn't see it, she persuaded this and talked about that , the Jinhua Hall was in chaos, the old lady felt that she was going to suffer from dizziness, so she hurriedly asked Mother Ji to take the pills, thinking that this was caused by the Qin family again, she became angry and cursed:
"This disturbing housewife will only do some inappropriate things all day long, and will not let people live in peace! Call her here and tell me what's going on!"

It was mid-afternoon, Xu Junying came back early, Baoju followed behind with a long wooden box, presumably took the official documents home to read, and heard Jinhuatang envoys to pass on Meimei, hurriedly said: " I will go with you!"

Sending the maids away, Meimei took off the jade belt for him, took off the official uniform, and changed into a lake-blue tunic flower robe, and said with a smile: "I didn't call you, and it's not time for dinner, what are you going to do?" ? There should be a group of women in the Jinhua Hall now, I will go by myself, I am too lazy to answer the quarrel, and even if they fight, they can't beat me!"

Xu Junying couldn't help laughing, watching her dexterous hands tie the sapphire blue silk sash around his waist, gently wrapping around the emerald jade, tying a wishful concentric knot, letting her hands fall from them, and catching those white tender hands, Wrapping it around his waist, he hugged her and said: "You have to watch it, young ones are up to you, like old ladies who can't stand falling, why don't you touch them?"

Meimei nodded with a smile: "Why do I mess with your ancestor? I want her grandson to spend two days with me for my birthday!"

Xu Junying lowered her head and kissed her on the lips, gritted her teeth and said, "It's not two days, it's a lifetime, two lifetimes...eight lifetimes!"

Meimei chuckled: "If you weren't her grandson, you would have succeeded in ten lifetimes!"

Heng'er's voice came from outside the door, shouting while running, Xu Junying let go of Meimei helplessly, watched her turn around gracefully, walked to the door to meet Heng'er:

"Heng'er, mother is going to Jinhuatang to see her great-grandmother, will you go?"

"Eight seven!" (not going)

Meme happy: This little guy can speak the language of the modern Internet.

"Then play at home with Sister Xia Lian!"

But Heng Er pointed to the room: "Orchid! Heng Er and Orchid!" (Father)

Meimei looked back, where is the beauty Orchid?Xu Junying escaped earlier, he has official documents to read, Heng Er is different from when he was a child, he will be noisy, he took him into the study the day before yesterday, he accidentally tore off a corner of the border defense map, which caused Bao Ju and Bai Zhan After searching for a long time, he finally used Cui Xi and Cui Lian Cui Si to find him. It's okay to stick him, otherwise he will be in big trouble, and he dare not carry him into the study when he is serious about reading official documents.

Said to Heng'er: "Go in and see for yourself, where is father? If you find it, let him play with you!"

Heng'er ran into the house and wandered around, but didn't find Orchid, she obviously heard the sound!She had no choice but to come out disconcerted, Meimei rubbed his little head and laughed to herself, Xu Junying really knew how to hide, such a big man didn't let Heng Er find out.

Then she winked at Xia Lian, and said: "Take my brother to the east courtyard, he likes to play with sand, there is one on the training ground, let two little girls play with him."

Hearing his mother allowed him to play in the sand, Heng'er became happy again, clapped his little hands, sang the nursery rhymes Meimei taught him indistinctly, swayed behind Nanny Xia Lian and a group of women and girls, and headed east hospital went.

Meimei brought Cuixi, Cuisi, women and servants to Jinhuatang.

The old lady leaned on the couch and fell asleep, waiting for Meimei to salute before opening her eyes, with a look of disgust on her face, but Meimei just lowered her eyebrows and did not look at her face.

Think it over clearly, the current situation is like this, you can only live with Xu Junying, and you don't need to see the old woman every day, as long as she still wants the respect of her grandson, you can't do anything to her.In order to harmonize the family, the water in the well does not interfere with the water in the river. She bears it, and the old lady must also bear it!
Hearing the old lady's reprimand, Meimei glanced at Xu Xiaojuan beside her. Xu Xiaojuan turned her face away, and then looked at Bai Jingyu and the others. Bai Jingyu shook her head helplessly. It didn't matter whether she said it or not. how?After all, it’s a concubine, if you don’t give it, you won’t give it, you can only accept your fate, but the old lady has nothing to do, insisting on calling Mei Meilai, if there is a conflict between the two, and you are angry and angry, is it worth it?Big holiday.

Meimei said: "What should I do? This is worth arguing about? It's still a famous family! My brother and sister-in-law are in trouble, shouldn't they help? I also discussed it with the Lord Hou. This decision. The fourth grandpa’s father-in-law’s family had an accident, and the fourth grandma must go back to her natal home for the big festival. What’s the matter with bringing her some more things and money back to subsidize it? Who doesn’t have a natal home? Who jumped out of the cracks in the rocks? If it wasn't for the Hou Mansion's rules to make it there, it wouldn't hurt to give her more!"

Bai Jingyu looked at Fang and said, "Did you hear that? It happened for a reason. Don't make a fuss about everything. Let the second wife know carefully. You will be reprimanded!"

Xu Xiaojuan was still dissatisfied: "My sister-in-law wants to subsidize it kindly, so I can't give her the share in my room? Why do you want to use the money for the kilometer, but you are the good guy!"

Bai Jingyu was stunned for a moment, this Xu Xiaojuan really wanted to be beaten, she looked at Meimei, and saw Meimei sneered and said:

"Auntie, that's a good question, but you don't deserve to ask it like that! Next time you chew your tongue, I'll deduct a month's bonus from you. You can try it! What kind of person am I? I'm the mistress of the waiting mansion, in charge Waiting for the gift from the mansion, all the money is at my disposal, and my brothers and sisters-in-law, who to give to and how much to give, I have the final say!"

Xu Xiaojuan looked at the old lady: "Grandmother, look at what she said..."

The old lady glared at Meimei: "You have the final say? Then where do you put me? Do you ignore the rules and regulations at all? Let you be the owner of this house, and it won't be defeated in a few years!"

Meimei said indifferently: "The rules and regulations are dead, and people are alive. They can be used as a reference. Why should they be trapped by dead things? Lord Hou is the head of the family, and his salary supports the whole family. The old lady is the elder of the family. I Who do you listen to? Naturally, I listen to Lord Hou. If the old lady doesn’t like it, go and talk to Lord Hou. If you listen to what the old lady says, you might be laughed at by outsiders. The wife loves her aunt so much that she is willing to spend energy and money to marry a good concubine for the eldest uncle, but she is unwilling to give more subsidies to her grandson! I don’t believe that if you get married with your brothers and sisters, you will lose your fortune. I secretly thought that no matter how much It's useless to spend my money on Aunt Baiyan!"

The old lady and Xu Xiaojuan were dizzy with anger, and the old lady patted the little girl: "Get out! Get out! I'm going to piss me off, I'm so pissed off!"

Xu Xiaojuan pointed at Meimei: "You scolded me, scolded me with supercilious eyes..."

Meimei took a step forward and stared at her: "Take your hand down, if you dare to stick it out again, I'll break it, believe it or not?"

Xu Xiaojuan hastily retracted her armbands: "You...you are so vicious! My brother is back home!"

Meimei snorted coldly: "I wanted to kill you a long time ago, thinking that keeping you would be useful for the eldest wife's illness, but who knows that it is of no use at all. What else can you do besides eating and searching in Qiuhua courtyard? Even your mother What is the use of having you if you dare to deduct the monthly payment and the money for taking medicine? You are really the granddaughter of the old lady. It is a shame for Xu Junying to have a stupid sister like you! Be careful not to meet him, otherwise you will be fine Life is over!"

Xu Xiaojuan's face turned red and then turned pale: "You are talking nonsense! I'll go back and tear up the mouths of those women and girls!"

She turned to the old lady and yelled coquettishly: "Grandma..."

The old lady was trembling with anger: "Get out! You get out too! Don't come to me again!"

Meimei looked sideways at the old lady: "Can I be treated the same as my aunt? Don't come again?"

The old lady fell on her back, her eyes turned white, and her lips were blue and purple. Mother Ji and Ruiyu Ruiyun swarmed forward to serve her, following her chest, feeding her medicine, shouting repeatedly:

"Old lady! Old lady!"

Bai Jingyu asked Meimei in a low voice: "It's been a long time since I saw you having a fit, but this time you're willing to touch her?"

Meimei smiled: "I couldn't hold it back for a while. Junying was not at home, so I couldn't get mad at her. Now that her eldest grandson is back, she wants to act, so she simply fulfills her wish. It's mine to be mad. If you don't die, then you Tomorrow I have to honestly come to pay my respects, and I will take care of you!"

Bai Jingyu looked at her reproachfully and smiled: "If you really die, what will you do?"

"What can I do? I am so angry with my elders that I am not qualified to wear mourning. Come and wear it!"

"No! No! I haven't been pregnant for three months, let me wear heavy filial piety, you want to harm me?"

Bai Jingyu chased out the door and hurriedly followed her out, as if the old lady was really going to die.
