Zhumen Chunshen

Chapter 74

"Yo, so that's the case, next time you have to be more careful. Sit down!" Ma said with a smile.

"Thank you, mother." Yao Shizan stepped down respectfully, and sat down next to Yao Cunhui.

Mrs. Xie's eyes lit up, she glanced at Yao Shizan and said with a smile to Madam Ma, "This young master is the one who heard about the illness earlier? Now it seems that he is recovering, congratulations!"

"Hehe, yes, this year has just improved, but the medicine is still constant." Ma Shi felt bad when he mentioned this matter, but it was not easy to show it in front of Mrs. Xie.

"Children are weak, take care of them slowly so that they can strengthen the body without hurting the root, so don't be in a hurry!" Madam Xie laughed again.

"Hehe, Mrs. Xie knows a lot, and what she said is quite reasonable! You don't know how much care, energy and money the whole family has spent on his illness, and now he is fine now. God bless you. !"

The corners of Madam Xie's mouth couldn't help twitching again, and she smiled for a while and remained silent.

Mrs. Xie found it very difficult to deal with Mrs. Ma's nonsensical gossip. Sisters Yao Cunjia and the others had no room to intervene, so they could only sit there dumbfounded.Mrs. Xie finally couldn't bear it any longer, glanced at the sisters, and could only take the initiative to smile and said: "These are all young ladies from the family, right? All of them are very good-looking!"

Biansheng Ma didn't understand the meaning of the hint, but when he heard Mrs. Xie's praise, he felt a little uncomfortable. He nodded and smiled casually: "It's not bad. You can just watch it. How can it be compared to the girls in Jiangnan? !” Dazed, I couldn’t think of letting them formally salute.

Yao Cunhui exchanged a look with Yao Cunjia after hearing Mrs. Xie's words, and couldn't help being surprised.She couldn't sit still, so she smiled at Mrs. Xie: "Auntie has worked hard all the way from afar, and the juniors have never greeted Auntie!"

Mrs. Ma was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "That's right, hurry up and greet Mrs. Xie!" Mrs. Ma's face was a little embarrassed. Is it over?Wouldn't it be considered an acquaintance after sitting down?Where is the use of greetings?Hearing Yao Cunhui's mention, and then thinking about Mrs. Xie's many insincere words just now, it suddenly occurred to him that maybe he had been rude just now.

Yao Cunjia then got up, took the initiative to go up to see Mrs. Xie, and did not expect Madam Ma to say something like "this is the big girl Cunjia".

Mrs. Xie looked at Yao Cunjia with a smile, and politely raised her hand and called, "Get up!" She couldn't see the slightest trace of looking at her. She took a small brocade box the size of a palm from her side and handed it to Yao Cunjia, and said with a smile: "A little bit!" Gadgets, keep them as rewards!"

"Thank you, Auntie!" Yao Cunjia took it with both hands, bent his knees with a smile, and returned to his seat steadily.

Then Yao Cunhui and others went up to see Mrs. Xie one by one, and Mrs. Xie gave gifts one by one. A thing that should have been done when she was seated was finally completed. Mrs. Xie secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and unconsciously glanced at Yao Cunhui.If you take the meeting ceremony back intact, you will be dumbfounded!

"Mother, Aunt Xie must be tired after traveling all the way. Why don't my daughter take Aunt Xie and the others to rest first?" After a few words, Yao Cunhui laughed again.Ma Shi is hopeless, and Yao Cunjia's words seem too obvious, only she said that it is barely passable.

"Alright." Madam Ma couldn't say no, forced a smile and nodded, and said to Mrs. Xie: "The house has already made arrangements. Mrs. Xie should live in Qingfengyuan. Let their sisters take you there! I will send someone for lunch Go and invite you, our master will be back tonight, and we will clean up Mrs. Xie tonight!"

"You are too polite!" Mrs. Xie smiled, secretly relieved.

"Mother, let's take our leave first!" Yao Cunjia stood up and saluted Mrs. Ma, and then smiled politely at Madam Xie: "Please, Auntie!"

Mrs. Xie nodded and smiled back, got up, said goodbye to Mrs. Ma, and was led by sister Yao Cunjia.

After a few words along the way, Mrs. Xie saw sisters Yao Cunjia's decent and generous behavior and appropriate words, and her impression of Yao Cunjia couldn't help but get better. The bad impression from the beginning gradually dissipated, and it was only because Mrs. Ma was too nervous.

When I came to Qingfengyuan and saw all the arrangements inside, Mrs. Xie, Mother Fang, Dongxue and others around me were stunned. I really didn't expect the arrangement to be so satisfactory.

"It was arranged in a hurry. It is the first time for our sisters to do such a thing. They are full of heart, but lack of experience. If there is anything wrong, please forgive me, my aunts, mothers, and sisters. If you need it, Auntie just said," Yao Cunhui pulled Yao Cunjia with a smile, pointed to the east and said with a smile: "My eldest sister lives in the Yaofangyuan there, and you can see it when you go out. There is an elder sister who is taking care of her nearby, Auntie, please don't polite!"

Everyone heard the banter and couldn't help laughing, Mrs. Xie also looked at Yao Cunjia and smiled.

Yao Cunjia blushed slightly, angrily said to Yao Cunhui, "Hui'er!"

"I see that everything has been arranged very well. You sisters have a heart!" Mrs. Xie smiled in surprise when she heard that it was arranged by their sisters.

"As long as Auntie is satisfied!" Yao Cunhui said with a smile: "By the way, this junior still has to go and see my younger brother, so I will take my leave first. Please forgive me for being rude."

"Kids, don't worry, you should go and get busy!" Mrs. Xie smiled politely, she didn't know that Yao Cunhui had deliberately resigned first, so that Yao Cunjia could be alone with her.

Yao Cunjia also knew what he meant and was grateful.She is the unmarried daughter-in-law of the Xie family. She was not good at first, but she tried her best to curry favor with her future mother-in-law. It was easy to be looked down upon by others. Yao Cunhui was by her side, so it was inconvenient for her to say a lot of things. Yao Cunhui left, so naturally it was her turn to speak.

Yao Cunjia then ordered Lvhe to lead Mrs. Xie down with the servants to rest and arrange her luggage, and ordered someone to bring hot water to wash Mrs. Xie's face and hands. The pastries and tea were also prepared one by one. He said a few words with him, and then stayed Mrs. Xie took a rest and left by herself.

After closing the door, Mrs. Xie's master and servant really relaxed.

Mrs. Xie half leaned half on the soft couch laid out with brocade embroidery, looked at everything in the room, lost her mind for a while, and smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth.

Mother Fang opened the curtain and came in, softly called "Ma'am" and served the blue and white tea bowl.

Mrs. Xie raised her eyes and glanced at her, shook her head slightly, and said lightly: "Let's put it aside."

Mother Fang answered "Yes" and put down the teacup with a smile, and stood beside Madam Xie with her hands folded in front of her. The Eldest Miss and the Second Miss are pretty good, and the Third Miss looks pretty good, even though she looks a bit coquettish and arrogant."

At least, better than Mrs. Yao.

Mrs. Xie glanced at Mrs. Fang, moved her body and sat up straight, and Mrs. Fang quickly moved the big apricot-colored orchid-embroidered pillow and placed it behind Mrs. Xie.

"Miss Yao San is Mrs. Yao's biological daughter, so it's normal to be a bit coquettish and arrogant." Mrs. Xie said lightly.

"Who says it's not!" Fang's mother couldn't help but sighed, paused and laughed again: "However, this old slave looks at Miss Yao and Miss Yao's actions are also very upright, especially Miss Yao, who is a good match for our young master. He is also stable in his actions and decent in his speech, and it is rare to be raised by his stepmother!"

Mrs. Xie smiled unconsciously when she heard the words, and said: "Exactly! The eldest daughter-in-law of our family will be presided over by the housekeeper in the future, and there are so many noble relatives from the family. But it’s too big, if you don’t have any skills, how can you handle it?”

"The lady thinks Miss Yao—"

"It's too early to say anything now. I think he is smart and dignified, but he doesn't know what to do with his temper. If he has a good temper, he will come out after a few years of experience. Who is born with that!"

Mrs. Xie smiled, her eyes slightly sad.In fact, the eldest daughter-in-law she is fancying is a niece of her natal family, but the marriage with the Yao family was made by Mrs. Yun and her deceased mother-in-law. Now that her mother-in-law is gone, it is right to break up the marriage so easily If the deceased is disrespectful and unfilial, he wants to destroy his reputation, and the master will definitely not agree.

Moreover, looking at Yao Cunjia's appearance and acting is not bad, although she is not as good as her natal niece in her heart, it is still rare.Let's see, as long as he is honest and not treacherous, everything else is fine.She didn't ask for anything, at most, in a year or two, it would be the same if she married her niece from her natal family to be a common wife.

Mother Fang smiled subtly. Judging by her expression, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Xie family must be Miss Yao!
Fang's mother secretly paid attention, thinking that she should be more polite to Yao Cunjia these days, after all, she will live in a mansion in the future, and she will be the heir of the new generation of mistress.

At noon, sisters Yao Cunjia came to invite Mrs. Xie to the main courtyard for lunch. Mrs. Xie estimated that the time had already been packed and sat chatting with the maids and mothers.

We had already met once in the morning, Mrs. Ma was not so restrained and nervous at this time, everyone greeted with a smile, and sat down for a cup of tea after dinner, sister Yao Cunjia still sent Mrs. Xie back to Qingfengyuan, waiting for her home in the evening Goodbye banquet.

In the evening, the family banquet was still held in the main courtyard. Master Yao, the second master Yao, Mrs. Mao, the second bedroom and a pair of children all came together, and the whole family was very lively.

Because they are serious in-laws, they don't pay much attention to it, so they set up two tables in the hall where men and women sit, and they are not separated by screens, brocade tents and the like.

Mr. Yao is worthy of being a man who has been experienced in the business field. He is good at observing words and demeanor, agrees with what he likes, and is as calm as flowing water. His gestures and demeanor give people a feeling of spring breeze. He is warm and thoughtful without being restrained. It makes people feel that they are flattering, the calm and confident calmness, and the witty remarks from time to time, make people feel relaxed and good, and feel very kind, and can't help but look up a few times.

There were many people joking around, and the atmosphere was good for a while.

Yao Cunhui was so impressed that there were only exclamation marks left in his heart. His father was really amazing, and he wondered that the Yao family's business was getting bigger and better, and they were firmly sitting on the top spot of the first imperial merchant!This didn't come out of nowhere!
