Chapter 213
The old man narrowed his eyes and smiled at Xiao Sa and Shen Muqing standing in front of him, and ordered a man in his forties to come behind him: "Long hanging, give my seal to Xiaoqi and his husband."
The room was silent, and everyone was paying attention to the long drooping behavior.
The man named Long Drooping lowered his head and replied "Yes", and placed a thin Fenghong in the tea tray where Chen Muqing served tea to the old man.
Another thin seal of red!
This is the third such a Fenghong that Chen Muqing received today - one of the fourth masters, one of the eldest uncles of the Zheng family, and one of the old masters.
She muttered in her heart, but she knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Sa with a smile.
The old man looked at his grandson who kowtowed to him. The grandson-in-law smiled with satisfaction and turned to ask the eldest wife: "I heard that Sa'er had many guests coming to marry, who were there?"
The eldest wife smiled and said, "Mr. Zeng from the Governor's Office of the Five Army is here. Not only that, Mrs. Zeng also became Mrs. Quanfu; the commander of the Xishan Camp, the general of Liaodong... many distinguished guests came."
The old man nodded and said to Xiao Sa: "This is also your popularity."
Xiao Sa hurriedly responded respectfully to "yes".
"You must remember in the future. The so-called thirty years Hedong and forty years Hexi, no one knows what they will encounter in the future. As the saying goes, rely on parents at home and friends when they go out. That is to say, listen to parents at home, and make friends when they are away..."
The old man taught Xiao Sa a lesson, and Xiao Sa listened respectfully, and a resentment flashed across the fourth wife's face. When the old man finished teaching, she smiled and walked forward, saying a complaint: "Dad, today is Sa'er's happy day. What do you have to say in a few days... I'll serve you first!" She looked like a loving mother.
The old man smiled and said, "Let Sa'er serve me for food-I have something to say to him." He looked at the fourth wife again, "They are going to set off for Yanzhou Guard tomorrow. Xiaoqi's wife is young after all, so you can help her pack her luggage!"
The fourth wife had said before that Chen Muqing would follow her back to Shandong. Now the old man said such words again... two completely contrary statements. The atmosphere in the room was inevitably a bit complicated.
A cold flashed in the fourth wife's eyes, but a respectful smile appeared on her face: "Xiao Qi's wife was young after all, and Yanzhou Wei was poor and bad. I want to take Xiao Qi's wife to Shandong... It is close to Kyoto, with rich resources, and the master and I are taking care of..."
Every time she said something, the eldest lady's expression became colder... and the people in the room pretended not to understand and looked at them with a smile.
"You mean, let Xiaoqi's wife and you go back to Shandong?" the old man asked with a smile, "Let Xiaoqi go to Yanzhou Guard alone?"
"Yes." The fourth wife smiled, "I'm also for Xiaoqi's wife..."
"The jade cannot be made into a weapon without being carved." The old man said lightly, "Let Xiaoqi and his wife go to Yanzhou Guard to polish and polish... and then, it will be easier to take over the butler."
Now, no one in the younger generation in the room pretended not to understand anymore, and they all showed strange colors.
When the fourth wife met, she showed a little pride on her face.
At that time, Xiao Sa was adopted to her name without her consent... Now, she married the daughter of the favorite minister of the Supreme Emperor when she was in power without her consent... Chen Zhen is old and the emperor is still alive. He is the one who can return to Kyoto. If one day he wants to calculate the old accounts, would Chen Zhen have a good idea? Since the old master, all the Xiao family are smart people, so why didn't anyone consider the future of the Fourth Master!
Since you don’t let us be worried, I won’t let you enjoy it either!
Unexpectedly, the old man was biased into his arms and even said something like Xiaoqi's boss... How could she be unhappy!
Chen Muqing secretly called "pain".
Take over the butler... With the old man's words, before this, it was just the fourth wife who disliked her. After this, I'm afraid that the female family members of the Xiao family would dislike her... The old man was not helping the couple when he said this, but was simply hurting them!
She was in a dilemma, and the second wife covered her mouth and smiled, breaking the silence in the room: "It's still my father's consideration. As the saying goes, good fortune and misfortune will follow. Xiao Qi went to Yanzhou Guard this time, although he was going to suffer, it was just the time to think about it..."
The second wife's words brought everyone to their senses and praised the old man for his vision.
The old man's smile became even more intense, and he said to Xiao Sa: "Let's go to have dinner... and ask your mother to help your wife pack their luggage. Don't you go back to the door tomorrow?" As he said, he got up and went to the east room, "The Ministry of Justice has done some things... I heard from the eldest daughter-in-law that the third uncle of the Zheng family has gone to Yanzhou Guard to help you with trivial matters..."
Xiao Saxu held the old man and Chen Muqing saw Xiao Zhao, who was following the old man, turn around and wink at the eldest lady. She quickly glanced at the eldest lady, the eldest lady nodded with a smile.
I don’t know what Xiao Zhao means?
Chen Muqing thought to himself, and looked up again, the old man and others were gradually drifting away.
Seeing that the person had gone far away, the second wife smiled and said to the fourth wife: "I'm idle anyway, why don't you help you pack your luggage?"
The fourth wife smiled brightly: "When it comes to the housekeeper, the second sister-in-law among our sister-in-law is the best. Mu Qing will be the leader of the family in the future, and I hope the second sister-in-law will teach her well."
If the old man really wanted Xiaoqi to be the head of the family, he would not agree to let him adopt it to the fourth child at that time... What's more, Xiaoqi is now in a guilty state and wants to leave the court, unless Xiaoqi dies or forgives him for escorting the emperor back to the capital, otherwise, this body cannot be... The old man chose the head of his family. If he just likes it, he should choose the slutty son of Lao Qi. Why bother to leave his son regardless of how many grandchildren, so that he is uneasy and fights...
The fourth wife believed in the old man's words, but she didn't believe it...
When the second wife thought of this, she couldn't help but look at the third wife.
Among the grandchildren, only the third and fifth in her family can compete with each other... If the third and fourth wife believe in the old master's words like the fourth wife... that would be wonderful.
The most taboo thing for the big family is to get married...
So when the second wife saw the third wife looking at Chen Muqing with gloomy eyes, she could hardly help laughing out loud.
She took the fourth wife's hand and went to the wedding room: "Our sister-in-law is a heroine. The rank leader of this family is not wise. I will give it to me if I am in charge. The third brother and sister can speak, the fifth brother and sister have the temperament, and the sixth brother and sister are good at female porn... If the fourth brother and sister ask me to teach Xiaoqi's wife other things, I dare not take the list, but if I ask me to teach her the housekeeper, I will still have some experience..."
*******
A group of people went to the wedding room with their own thoughts.
Because he was preparing to go to Yanzhou Guard, the luggage that Chen Muqing should have packed was still stuck with the word "Xi" and did not disperse.
The fourth wife couldn't help but sneer: "My wife is really smart. She knew she was going to Yanzhou Guard early in the morning, but she didn't even have to disperse her things."
This is the mother-in-law scolding her daughter-in-law, so it is natural that others can't speak, even the eldest wife can only frown.
Chen Muqing smiled respectfully at his mother-in-law.
The old man made the final decision. Even if the fourth wife was unhappy, she would not have a chance to turn things around when she went to Yanzhou Guard. The fourth wife could understand that she was unhappy because of this...
She lowered her head and said, "It's all the negligence of her daughter-in-law."
The fourth wife refused to give in: "Oh, your negligence? Then tell me, where was the negligence?"
Chen Muqing originally wanted to take a step back, but now he can't retreat.
She smiled slightly and said, "I heard from Mrs. Min that my husband's house is rented. I was afraid that there were too many people and lost things, so I told the maids not to disperse the things... Since my mother said it was not important, let me let the maids disperse it!"
"Xiaoqi's wife is right." The third wife smiled, "It's not like when I got married on the 11th, the fourth sister-in-law had a five-entry house with wide front and wide back."
The fourth wife listened to the third wife's sarcastic words, her face changed slightly, and she said, "That's because the Huang family put a dowry of 120 for Eleven... If I don't set up a house for them, how can I put it down!"
"The situation is different!" The eldest wife didn't want Chen Muqing to suffer a loss, and said with a smile, "When we got married on the 11th, we were in Tai'an Mansion, and the house in Wujin was only three or four hundred taels of silver. Xiaoqi's marriage was in Kyoto, and the house in Wujin was not worth ten thousand taels of silver. As the saying goes, the man was one end and the woman was one load. Our family did not buy a house for others, and even if the Shen family had 120, there was no place to put it on!"
It means that the man did not pay the money, so don’t blame the woman for her dowry...
After hearing this, the second wife continued, "Sister-in-law said that, too. We are not strong in our own body, so why should we ask the Shen family? Gold and jade are priceless. I heard from Mrs. Zeng that the few calligraphy and paintings in Xiaoqi's wife's dowry are valuable. You can buy a few courtyards in the Petrochemical Bridge..." As she said, she smiled and said, "We are not as good as Xiaoqi's wife's mother's family. They are famous families in Jiangnan. For some words, it is better for the fourth brother and sister to say less."
It means that the fourth wife is humble from a humble background, so don’t say anything ridiculous.
The fourth wife's face turned pale as she heard it.
Chen Muqing also realized that these wives from the Xiao family were not easy to mess with!
Just as she was about to come forward to persuade her, the sister-in-law secretly pulled her sleeve and whispered: "Don't worry, let them argue... The couple is serious. Xiaoqi is back later. Remember to use some tricks to stand on your side..."
Chen Muqing couldn't help but blush when he heard this.
The eighth brother and sister-in-law leaned into her ear and laughed in a low voice: "Our elder brother can't live without the sister-in-law for a moment... You have to listen carefully to the words of the sister-in-law."
"Bah!" said the sister-in-law in the hall, "You have learned the skills and the master will throw it over the wall. Be careful, I will tell Xiaoba to go."
The younger sisters-in-law laughed in a low voice, and the atmosphere was very harmonious, which was completely different from the tension between the previous generation of sisters-in-law.
Chen Muqing couldn't help but secretly exclaimed.
However, the Lobby Sister-in-law still remembered the words in her heart.
When I first arrived at the Xiao family, I was still unfamiliar with everything. I discussed it with Xiao Sa, but there were only benefits but no harm.
