The daughter of the splendid good fortune is respected

Chapter 218 The Target Old Man (2)
The old lady that Nanny Chang was talking about was naturally Xiao Mingyu's grandmother, the old lady of the Han family.Xiao Mingyu nodded after listening.The Han family is a century-old family, which means that the Han family has deep roots and a large population.It is impossible for the Han family to know all of these people, but I believe that there is no one in the Han family who does not know the Han family.This bastard from the Han family came to the door from Jinzhou, and he probably has something to do.

"Nurse, you go and invite people in first, and you greet mother and find out their purpose. If it's just a general exchange, that's fine. If you have other purposes, you can tell me first, and I'll figure out a way. "Xiao Mingyu ordered so.

Nanny Chang responded, "Won't Miss go and see for herself?"

Xiao Mingyu shook his head, "I won't go, you should find out the situation first."

"The servant girl will go now."

As soon as Nanny Chang left, Xiao Mingyu went to see Mrs. Han.Xiao Mingxuan was talking with Han Shi, when Xiao Mingyu came in, Xiao Mingxuan gave up his seat, and the two sisters sat down together.

Mrs. Han asked with a smile: "You called Mother Chang out, but is there something wrong?"

"It's nothing serious. The concierge sent word that someone had come to the door. My daughter didn't know her, and she was worried that the person would offend her mother, so she asked Nanny Chang to take a look first. If it was really a relative of our family, it would be natural Be good to entertain. If someone comes to the door under a false name, just ask the porter to call out." Xiao Mingyu said lightly.

Han laughed, "You, you are too careful. Since he came to the door, he naturally knew us. It is very rude of you to do so."

Xiao Mingyu smiled and didn't care, "Mother has been away from the capital for many years, are you still familiar with the relatives of the Han family?"

Talking about the capital naturally brought back memories of Han, and Han's eyes were full of nostalgia, "The capital, that's a good place. It's not like the place in Zhongzhou, where it's just like that. My mother used to do it. When she was a girl, she was the leading socialite in the capital. It's a pity that this network was not used on you, but it made you follow your mother and be trapped in Zhongzhou, where there is no right and wrong."

Xiao Mingxuan repeatedly stated that she didn't care at all, whether it was Beijing or Zhongzhou, as long as she was by Han's side, she would be happy.

Xiao Mingyu asked with a smile: "What did that mother do when she was at the grandfather's house?"

"It's similar to what you do now. Every day, you learn the rules from the nanny, read from the husband, talk with the old lady, entertain guests and so on. But the old lady passed away when I was ten years old. The house was deserted for a long time. Two years later, it became lively again. I followed your grandmother to go out to entertain guests every three days, or to entertain guests at home. In short, it was very busy at that time, and there were many banquets to catch up throughout the year. Occasionally, I followed your grandmother to enter I went to the palace to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager. When the Empress Dowager was gone, she did not enter the palace again. But at that time, my mother knew a lot of noble ladies from the royal family, and had some friendship with them."

Speaking of this, Han sneered at herself, "Look at me, I'm just saying something. Just listen to it as a joke, but don't take it seriously."

Xiao Mingyu's heart sank, just from the few words that Han surnamed uttered, one could tell what kind of luxurious life Han surnamed lived in the capital.Compared with the current life, it is really fortunate that Han can bear it.If it were someone else, I'm afraid there would be an uproar.It used to be so glamorous, but now it is silent. What made Han seem to be a different person.Xiao Mingyu didn't pursue it, it was Han's past, if Han didn't want to talk about it, then she didn't want to ask.Uncovering the scars will only make people hurt again.It's better to wait for the scars to truly heal until the day when there is no trace left.Maybe at that time, I can talk about the past calmly, just like talking about other people's affairs.

"Mother, do you want to go back to live in the capital?" Xiao Mingyu could tell that the Han family missed life in the capital.

Han lowered her head, smiled, shook her head and said, "No, in fact, the territory of Zhongzhou is quite good, quiet, there are not so many gossips, and there are no strange eyes."

It seems that the Han family later married Xiao Maoyang, and suffered a lot of glaring eyes.

Xiao Mingyu smiled and said: "What mother said is true. My daughter has no impression of the capital. If she went to the capital rashly, she might not be used to it. Besides, mother is pregnant now, so we should wait for my younger brother to be born and grow up, and then we will go as a family. Jingcheng congratulated my grandmother and grandfather on their birthdays. At that time, Jingcheng must have looked different."

"Yeah, my mother was old at that time, and those sisters were also old." Han laughed after finishing speaking.

Xiao Mingyu said with a smile: "Mother is not old at all, she is in her prime, and she still has a long, long time to live."

"Silly boy, everyone will grow old." Han said with a smile.

Xiao Mingyu didn't argue, but he already had an idea in his heart.The capital, the distant capital, may be the final destination of their family.Along with the capital came Zhou Gan.Zhou Qian suddenly appeared in his mind, which shocked Xiao Mingyu.How could she suddenly think of Zhou Qian.Going to Beijing really has nothing to do with Zhou Gan.Xiao Mingyu reminded himself that he must not think wildly.

Nanny Chang had already inquired about the news, Xiao Mingyu talked to Mrs. Han, and went out to ask Nanny Chang about the situation there.

Nanny Chang said to Xiao Mingyu: "Miss Qi, Mrs. You came with two daughters this time. The servants welcomed him to the flower hall and had a conversation with them. Mrs. You's two daughters are not young anymore. But I heard that they haven't got married yet. This time Mr. You went to Jinzhou to take office, Mrs. You planned to settle the marriage of the two daughters locally. Mrs. You felt that Zhongzhou was richer than Jinzhou, and there were more wealthy families, so she decided I want to find two suitable marriages in Zhongzhou. Their family has no acquaintance in Zhongzhou, and they thought that their wife would marry in Zhongzhou, so they came here."

"So, their family plans to live in our Xiao family?" Xiao Mingyu asked.

Nanny Chang nodded, "Exactly. Miss, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

"Mother, wait a moment. I'll go in and report to my mother. Ask her what she means."

"It should be so, and this servant thinks so too."

Xiao Mingyu entered the room and told Han Shi about the situation, Han Shi was stunned.Han sighed, "We haven't seen each other for so many years, I didn't expect that there would be a chance to meet again. Since we are here, we have to greet them. Go, invite them in. Just say that I am inconvenient and neglect them." , let them forgive me."

"Mother, do you really want to keep them here? Mother is pregnant now, so she doesn't have the energy to greet guests. According to my daughter, why don't you help them rent a yard outside? This way, it will be easier for mother, and they will It's also convenient to get in and out." Xiao Mingyu said.

Han waved his hands again and again, "How can that be done? After all, they are sisters from my family. If they come to the door, I will arrange them to live outside. What will happen? Don't you want to lose face? Mother knows you are worried, but it's just today. Later , you and Mingxuan are the ones to worry about their affairs, and mother will be a hands-off shopkeeper."
