Jinyi Music

Silian turned her head and ordered outside,

"Groom, hurry up..."

Turning around and saying angrily,
"I'll go home when the time comes. You don't have to come pick me up. I'm afraid my mother will leave early when I go back this season. I don't know if there is anything prepared on the small stove in the Qingjing courtyard..."

When Mou Biao saw that she was so tight to himself, he felt sweet in his heart, and snickered, leaning most of his body on her shoulders,

"I'm not afraid if I don't have anything prepared, you can make me a bowl of noodles..."

"it is good!"

When the young couple returned to the mansion, Silian washed her hands after changing her clothes to make noodles for Mou Biao. A large bowl of Yangchun noodles was sprinkled with chopped green onions and the front of the hooves was marinated. Biao ate noodles with stewed hoof, and asked Silian,

"Have you finished seeing what your mother showed you earlier?"

Silian nodded,

"It's almost..."

"Are there any words you don't know?"

Silian shook her head, and Mou Biao praised,
"Sure enough, it's still our Silian, who is very talented. After learning the characters for a long time, I can recognize the whole booklet!"

Si Lian secretly felt ashamed, and talked about her eldest sister getting married,
"In ten days or so, Eldest Sister will be getting married, what gift shall we prepare?"

Mou Biao said,
"Nowadays in our yard, you are the hostess, and you are in charge...you can give whatever suits you..."

Silian bit her lip,

"I don't know what is suitable. What did you give the second sister when she got married?"

Mou Biao waved his hand and said carelessly,
"I gave one hundred and eight South Sea beads earlier, and let her play with the chains by herself, you just follow suit!"

Silian frowned,
"But... the eldest sister is from a concubine, and the second sister is from a concubine, so they both get the same gift?"

This... seems a bit bad, right?

Mou Biaohun didn't care,

"What... are all my sisters!"

He put this matter behind him in a blink of an eye. After eating, Si Lian was reading in the study, and Mou Biao practiced boxing outside the window. After that, he washed up and went to bed. After going to bed, someone As usual, you have to eat some more soup before you are willing to sleep, and a certain person is shy in the first day or two, but after a few more days, you get used to it, let him play around obediently, which makes someone very happy in their hearts, and they can't put it down even more !
The next day the young couple got up, washed up and went to the front yard to say hello. After breakfast at Mrs. Liu's place, Mou Biao followed Mu Bin to the yamen to run an errand. Speaking of gift giving, Mother Wang said,

"Young Madam, you can't believe everything Ba Ye says..."

Looked around in this room, ordered Cuiqiao and Cuixi to go out and guard, and then said,

"Young madam, I don't know if you can see it. This madam has a sweet face and a bitter heart. On the face, she treats the young masters and ladies equally at home, but in fact, the most important thing in her heart is her own children. It's been so long, I don't care too much when looking at Madam, if you treat Second Miss and Eldest Miss as the same, Madam will inevitably feel uncomfortable..."

Silian nodded,

"This... I understand it!"

This person has the feeling of licking the calf, and there is nothing wrong with loving his own children!
Silian has set up a stall outside for so many years, listening to people talk about the back house of the big family, it also makes my ears callous. The people in this capital are different from the people in other places, and they talk about it every day after dinner. The most frequent ones are not the faults of the master and the west, but the emperor in the imperial city, who doted on that concubine today, who is going to be promoted to the prince tomorrow, or who has a girl in the house of Lord Shangshu. About the affair with the young servant, the young girl was pregnant later on, the young servant dared not admit it, and let the girl be beaten to death by the wife, and as a result, the Lord Shang Shu’s house began to be haunted, or the servant’s family wanted to take a concubine, and the new The aunt was born as beautiful as a fairy, but she was envied by the wife, who punished her to kneel in the yard every day, and ended up kneeling down, and such "major family and country affairs".

She also thought about it herself, if ordinary people's family has a little money and buys a lowly concubine, the original spouse of the family will be beaten, scolded and bullied to death, not to mention the back house of this rich family. Mrs. Liu is considered virtuous in comparison, do you really expect people to treat the children born to their husbands by other women as their own?

This is life and death embarrassing people!

It was precisely because of this that she hesitated when it came to giving gifts. It wasn't that she stepped on the highs and lows. It was just that if both sisters gave them the same gift, it would fall into the eyes of Mrs. Liu or the married second sister. They will have a grudge in their hearts!

Si Lian shared her concerns, and Mama Wang praised her a lot.
"Young Madam is really smart. Eighth Master is a man. He has a rough temper. I can't think of it like that..."

After a pause, he said,
"Besides, Eighth Master is the favorite young master in the family. He has a high level and low level in things, and no one dares to argue with him, but you are different..."

To put it bluntly, Mou Biao is the son of this family, and he is a sibling with the eldest lady and the second lady. He does not care about the level of gifts, but the young lady is different. But in the end, no one has a close relationship, and if there is some deviation in doing things, it must be true!
Mother Wang is the person who has been a wronged little daughter-in-law for many years, and she understands the truth best!
Silian nodded,

"Mother Wang is right, that's exactly what she said!"

It's not that she is small-minded, it's just that it's human nature, and it's the same for her own family, so there's no need to criticize others too much!

Silian made it easy,

"If that's the case, then I'll give you a lighter gift in public, and make up for eldest sister in private?"

Mama Wang nodded,
"That's great!"

Done face and face, neither side will offend!
So the two went to the library to pick things up again. Si Lian picked a small jade screen and planned to send it privately, and picked a few bolts of silk as a tribute. Mother Wang said,
"That's good. Although this jade screen is not as rare as the beads from the South China Sea, the master's works are also very precious. The silk material... To tell you the truth, not everyone has the material for the tribute. These are the five pieces that the master rewarded. Auntie, Fifth Aunt gave it to Eighth Master, but the other aunts didn't have it..."

This is really good for the eldest lady!

Silian nodded, and immediately asked Cuiqiao and Cuixi to hold the material. The jade screen was put in a box and pressed under the material, and they carried it with both hands to the yard of the elder sister Mou Xiumei. When Mou Xiumei saw her coming, yes Surprised and delighted, he personally welcomed her into the door and said with a smile,

"Eighth brother and sister, why are you here?"

Silian laughed,

"Big sister is getting married, Xiaolin told me yesterday, asking me to send some materials to show big sister, to make some new clothes, so that I can change into them when I get married..."

Mou Xiumei glanced at the few pieces of material, her smile became brighter and brighter,
"It's hard for that brat to still think about me..."

Silian replied,

"Of course I was thinking about big sister, but Xiaolin was busy with work every day, so he entrusted me here..."

He pointed to the box under the material and said,

"It so happened that I saw a jade screen in Curry today, thinking that my eldest sister likes to read, so I put this gadget on the desk, and it will be a sight to look at when I am free from reading..."

Mou Xiumei became more and more happy, took her hand and said,

"You just entered the door and we haven't had a good conversation yet. Today you are eating at my place, and I will ask the stove to cook a few special dishes for you to try..."

Next, I asked Si Lian if she was used to being in the mansion, whether her brat brother treated her well, etc...

Jia Silian grew up in the market place, and is the best at observing words and expressions. As long as she has the heart to get close to people, she must speak in a proper and appropriate way. Although she is not as beautiful and elegant as a lady, she is also as gentle and well-behaved as a little girl next door. Mou Xiumei had a good chat and left after having lunch at her place.

After she left, Mou Xiumei asked the girl to unfold the material and the jade screen to have a look.
"Miss, this jade screen is really beautiful!"

This is a serious Hetian old jade, with a picture of a fishing boat singing on the top of it. It seems that the carver must be produced by a famous artist. Such a good thing, my lady doesn't have it!
Mou Xiumei said,

"Lao Ba has been favored since he was a child. I don't know how much he has benefited from his father, and now he is working outside. I heard He Lang said that Jin Yiwei's salary is much higher than theirs. In private Every time the property of the offender's family is searched, everyone will have a share according to the rules. As the old eighth in that yamen, he must be able to take the big head, it is not surprising that he can come up with such things!"

However, this new sister-in-law is also good at being a person. She gives materials on the surface, and hides the jade screen underneath. Ming media is getting married.

Mrs. Liu at the other end heard about today's movements and asked,

"What did you send?"

"Go back to madam, someone saw that it was a few horses of tribute from the palace..."

"Oh……"

Mrs. Liu nodded,

"She is really generous. There are not many people in the tribute house, and I don't have many in the warehouse. She is willing to give it away!"

The mother below said with a smile,

"Perhaps Madam Eighth Young Master has just entered the mansion, planning to make friends with all young masters and ladies..."

"Ok!"

Liu nodded and said nothing more.

Si Lian came back with a congratulatory gift, and talked to Mama Wang about the eldest lady,

"This eldest sister seems to be knowledgeable and polite, but her body is a little weak..."

Miss Mou's thin body is comparable to that of Si Lian, but although Si Lian is thin, she is in good health with less illness and less pain. Going into the mansion to ask for pulse, her body is naturally not comparable to Silian's.

Mama Wang sneered and said,

"Young Madam, don't underestimate the Eldest Miss..."

After all, I told you what Mou Xiumei did to get her married, and then said,

"Ba Ye helped the young miss suppress this matter, and now this Ruyi Langjun is also led by Ba Ye..."

Ordinarily she should come to thank Ba Ye, but she is about to get married, and she has never seen her say thank you to Ba Ye!
Silian nodded,

"I do know something about Xiao Lin's matchmaking for her..."

If not, she wouldn't have gone to Mingyue Tower by mistake!
