Your husband is too motivated

Chapter 1

Lan Xi looked at the things that the maid had just sent with some displeasure. This was the third wife's newly-made jewelry that the maid had just sent, and all the girls in the house had it.

Because it was in a box, Lan Xi didn't even look at it when he took it, and gave the little girl a silver reward. At this time, he took it to the house and opened it, Lan Xi was so angry that he almost lost his breath.

On the contrary, Tang Nuan glanced at it, took a hairpin and played with it, threw it back into the box, and said, "What's wrong with you?"

"Miss, they are going too far." Lan Xi was straightforward, "Where did the girl get so angry at home, don't give it away if you don't want to give it away, who cares about such things."

Although Lan Le had a calmer temper, she was full of displeasure when she saw it at this time, and said, "Baba picked up the girl, and he only lived for a few days and abused the girl like this."

Mama Liu frowned, she just looked at her daughter and said, "Miss, if you wait for the old lady to pass her birthday, let's go back to Nanling."

Tang Nuan said, "Get someone to clean up the house. I'm afraid the third brother will come over in a few days." It's just that there are no elders in the family, and my grandmother would not let the two brothers and sisters live alone, but everything goes wrong. It's just an opportunity.

Mother Liu was overjoyed when she heard the words, "Why didn't the third young master come with the girl?"

Tang Nuan smiled and didn't answer, and Liu's mother knew she had made a slip of the tongue and didn't ask any more.

Lan Xi asked, "Girl, these jewelry?"

If you are generally soft-tempered, you can bear this dumb loss, and Tang Nuan is not easy to bully. Three generations of the Tang family have got a girl like Tang Nuan. It seems too fussy to talk about these things, "Mother Li, are the congratulatory gifts ready?"

Because of the inconvenient news from the two places, after Tang Nuan was on the road, the Tang family received a letter from Mrs. He, and learned the news of the engagement of the eldest daughter of the He family. It was delivered by someone, which made the congratulatory gift a few days late.

If the third lady had a suspicion in her heart because of this matter, she would be too narrow-minded. After all, after Tang Nuan came, she first explained the situation to Mrs. He, and then apologized to the third lady.It's not that Tang Nuan didn't want to wait for those congratulatory gifts, it's just that before departure, the family sent a letter to the He Mansion, stating the approximate time of arrival in Beijing, if it was seven or eight days late, Mrs. He might be worried.

Mother Li said respectfully, "Yesterday evening, it was already here, but it was getting late, so the old slave asked the steward to deliver it again this morning. A little girl sent a letter just now, saying that it has arrived."

Tang Nuan nodded, and said, "Lan Le, you and Mama Li, go and tidy up together."

"Yes." Lan Legong replied.

Mother Li already understood what Tang Nuan meant, and immediately took Lan Le to check it out.

Lan Xi still didn't understand, she poured Tang Nuan a glass of honey water, and asked, "Girl, the third lady has acted like this, why is the girl still thinking about adding makeup to the cousin girl?"

After taking a few sips from the cup, Tang Nuan said, "Could it be possible that you really threw this box of things on Third Aunt's face?"

Although Lan Xi didn't say it directly, her expression clearly agreed, which made Tang Nuan laugh, "Now I'm in He Mansion, and my grandmother has taken a fancy to my second cousin again." Besides, her brother hasn't come yet, so it's possible to get into trouble if it really happens. how?At most, Mrs. He reprimanded the third lady, but Tang Nuan didn't get well either.

"It's because the servant girl didn't think well enough." Lan Xi is not a fool, so she naturally understands that she just feels wronged by her own girl.

Lan Xi looks very good, even if she is angry, she is not ugly. Tang Nuan has liked beautiful things since she was a child, so she gave Lan Xi a pair of ruby ​​earrings, "Put them on for me to see."

"Girl!" Lan Xi said angrily, but she also knew Tang Nuan's temperament, so she put on the earrings given by Tang Nuan without further ado.

Tang Nuan nodded and said, "It will look good with a red skirt."

Lan Xi was only twelve or thirteen years old, and it was the time when she was in love with beauty, and she knew that her girls liked their pretty dresses, so she laughed, "It just so happened that the girl gave me a pomegranate skirt last time."

After Mama Li and Lan Le finished checking things, Tang Nuan chose a pair of sapphire earrings for Lan Le and a pure gold bracelet for Mama Li, and then gave the box of jewelry from the third wife to Lan Xi for her Holding it in his hands, he gave the gift list to Lan Le and then led the people to Mrs. He's courtyard.

Tang Nuan's mother is Mrs. He's only daughter and the youngest, she has always been raised by Mrs. He's side, but after she got married, she was away with Tang Nuan's father, so she hasn't seen each other for many years. Since Tang Nuan was born Afterwards, Mrs. He wrote many times to take Tang Nuan into Beijing to take care of her, but the Tang family declined. This time Tang Nuan will come to the capital, one is because of Mrs. He's birthday, and the other is because the Tang family has been away from Beijing for so many years. , and it's time to come back, the third is Tang Nuan's own request.

Mrs. He lived in the main courtyard, and the Liluo Courtyard where Tang Nuan lived was not far from the main courtyard. When Tang Nuan took her maid there, she saw Mrs. He talking to the second lady.

Seeing Tang Nuan, not only Mrs. He but also the second wife were all smiling. The second master of the He family was a concubine, but because his biological mother died young, he was always raised by Mrs. He's side, and he married Mrs. He's niece , the relationship has been good.

Before Tang Nuan's mother got married, she also knew the second wife, and the two got along well, and the second wife was smart, so after Tang Nuan came, the second wife took extra care of her.

As soon as Mrs. He saw Tang Nuan, before she could salute, she beckoned people to her side and said with a smile, "Your second uncle doesn't know where to get fresh shrimps, I'm about to get someone to call you. "

Tang Nuan smiled and leaned against Mrs. He's side, and said, "Grandma wants to make shrimp dumplings?"

Mrs. He nodded and said, "Your mother likes this one the most, and she only eats those made of fresh shrimp. She is very picky."

Tang Nuan smiled and said, "My mother often mentioned it at home, saying that the cook that my father specially invited was not good enough, and it was not as delicious as the one made by my grandfather's house. Today I got a coincidence, so I have to try it out." He looked at the second wife, "I also have the honor of my grandmother. It's hard to find fresh shrimps in this season. I think my second uncle has been looking for someone who is filial to my grandmother for a long time."

Hearing the words, the second lady only felt that it was appropriate, and said gently, "It's good that mother and sister Nuan like it." After speaking, she looked at Tang Nuan, "Your second uncle also found some gadgets, and I will ask the maid to give them to you later. Send it."

"Thank you, Second Uncle and Second Aunt." Tang Nuan was very good-looking, her eyes were crooked when she smiled, and she looked extraordinarily cute.

The second lady pursed her lips and smiled, then shook her head lightly and said nothing more.

"The congratulatory gift that my mother prepared for my eldest cousin was also delivered today, but my mother said in a letter that she had never met her, so she didn't know if the preparation was in line with her wishes. Let me give my grandma a hand first, and if there is anything inappropriate , so I begged my grandmother to help me take care of it." Tang Nuan said with a smile.

Mrs. He smiled and nodded Tang Nuan's head. The second lady put the peeled tangerine into Tang Nuan's hands. Tang Nuan thanked her and started eating.

"Alright." Mrs. He agreed. After all, it was her daughter who had the heart, and she also hoped that her daughter could establish a good relationship with the family, and...Looking at her charming granddaughter, Mrs. He smiled even more lovingly.

Tang Nuan took the gift list from Lan Le, and handed it to Mrs. He herself. Mrs. He unfolded it and read it. The second lady pulled Tang Nuan to speak in a low voice. After reading it, Mrs. He said, "Your mother has always been considerate. , just a little too much."

"My mother said that the girls in the family should be delicate, not only the eldest cousin, but also the second and third cousins ​​in the future." Tang Nuan explained.

Mrs. He was satisfied. This is her daughter doing her own good. The second lady smiled and said, "Auntie, let me open my eyes too."

"You are indispensable everywhere." Mrs. He laughed and cursed, and then asked the maid to hand the gift list to the second lady.After all, she came from the same family, and Mrs. He's words revealed a sense of intimacy.

After reading it, the second lady had to praise my sister-in-law for her generosity. I am afraid that 2000 taels of these things will not be able to stop, and the eldest girl’s dowry is only 6000 taels. Thinking of the meaning of Tang Nuan’s words, the second lady will look at Tang Nuan again. It's like looking at a doll inlaid with gold and jade.

"That's right." Tang Nuan asked Lan Xi to bring the box of jewelry, took it with her own hands and put it on the table.

"Because I just came here, the elders have already given me a lot of good things. Now my third aunt has given me a set of jewelry. I feel uneasy. I just happen to be unable to do my needlework. I don't know what to give my eldest cousin. I think my third aunt is my eldest cousin." My mother's vision is naturally similar to that of my cousin, why don't you let me borrow flowers and present Buddha to my cousin."

The second lady's eyes flickered, she knew something, because the dowry was prepared for the eldest girl, so the third lady specially invited someone from Jiangnan, and Mrs. He told the girls in the family to choose tricks and make a set. The thing is that before Tang Nuan came, could it be that the third lady gave Tang Nuan the eldest girl's uniform?But the second lady felt that she would not do such a thing according to the temperament of the third lady.

Since the second lady could think of it, how could Mrs. He not think of it, so she stopped mentioning it immediately and just asked, "Are you used to using it in the capital? Whose fragrance is not fragrant? If there is something missing, just tell me." .”

Tang Nuan had a conversation with Mrs. He, and left after lunch.

As soon as Tang Nuan left, Mrs. He's face turned cold, and she opened the box of jewelry in front of the second lady, and when she saw the contents, even Mrs. He, who had been cultivating herself, became angry, "Confused! "

The second lady also leaned over to take a look, took a breath and said, "Where is there such a trampling person, it's better not to send it away."

Inside is a set of pearl jewelry, which looks complete, but it looks old, the beads are all yellowed, and compared to the gift the Tang family prepared for the eldest girl, the third sibling is really stupid as always.
