Jiang Shuangrui brought the teacup and smiled: "The old marquis wants to listen to the song and let him listen. Speaking of which, he and the Empress Dowager have a lifelong friendship, so what they say will naturally be wrong."

Wang smiled and said with a hint: "Looking at the old Huangsheng, I'm afraid I'll miss the solar term."

Jiang Shuangrui smiled and said nothing, and changed the subject and asked several cousins ​​in Feng's mansion: "...We go back to our uncle's house, and they also want to go back to our uncle's house. When we go back to our parents' house, they also go back to our parents' house, and I don't know when we can meet them."

Wang smiled and said, "Or, we will make an appointment to go to spring during the Qingming Festival."

As the two were talking, the mother in charge came in and reported to Jiang Shuangrui and Shen Muqing: "The two young masters said that they would go to the Princess's Mansion to greet the eldest princess later, and let the two young grandmas prepare as well."

Chen Muqing thought of the strange gaze that Princess Fuhua showed when she looked at her that day and her intimacy with Jiang Shuangrui.

"Sister-in-law, go with them!" Unexpectedly, Jiang Shuangrui had no intention of going to the Prince Consort's Mansion. She gently stroked her slightly round belly and smiled, "I'm so heavy, so I won't go."

Chen Muqing was slightly surprised and his mind was spinning rapidly.

Although Princess Fuhua is a relative, she is still intimate and has to follow the rules that should be followed no matter how intimate she is. Since Jiang Shuangrui doesn't go, of course she can't go. No matter what, Jiang Shuangrui is her sister-in-law. Even if the relatives have any complaints about it, she will follow Jiang Shuangrui. As long as she handles it properly and has Jiang Shuangrui in front, can this blame still fall on herself?

The thought flashed, and she smiled and said, "Since my second sister-in-law doesn't go, I won't go anymore--you are in a heavy body. Although you have a capable maid and mother around you, I still want to be a companion with my second sister-in-law!"

Hearing Chen Muqing's decision, Jiang Shuangrui's bright eyes shone brightly, and a little smile appeared.

Wang did not expect that the two sisters-in-law would not go, and said in a daze: "How is this good? Have you been there in previous years?"

Jiang Shuangrui smiled at Wang and said, "Don't be anxious, aunt, the situation is special this year, and I think the princess won't say anything. Since my brother and sister want to stay with me, we two sisters-in-law will not go, and we just want our aunt to have a glass of wine."

To be honest, although she married into the Liang family less than half a month, the second sister-in-law said to her and could count it with one hand... Could it be that Jiang Shuangrui would rather stare at her than wish her New Year's greetings to Princess Fuhua, who was very intimate with her? Or, she thought that Wang Wenhui had not come, so she could take advantage of this opportunity to develop with her? No matter what, Wang and Jiang are old opponents after all. Although Jiang Shuangrui often loses, it does not mean that Jiang Shuangrui is very satisfied with her current environment! Don't let someone use it as a gun!

Jiang Shuangrui's protection not only did not make Chen Muqing breathe a sigh of relief, but instead made her feel a little alert and kept muttering in her heart.

After hearing this, Wang thought for a moment, and smiled and said, "Okay, your sister-in-law is not here. With my place, you two sisters-in-law will talk well." After saying that, he actually said enthusiastically, "I'll talk about it when Uncle Xin and Ji Min!"

Jiang Shuangrui smiled and thanked him, and Wang went out happily.

The small flower hall became quiet.

The warm winter sun shines in through the glass window, and the floating dust floats in the air with colorful light.

Jiang Shuangrui's nails were bright red and bright, and gently pinched off a jade-like daffodil flower and twisted it into a splash of water on her fingertips.

*******

The two brothers of Liang went to the Prince Consort's Mansion, Wang hosted them for lunch, and Jiang Shuangrui sat in the Deqing Marquis' Mansion for a while before saying goodbye.

Chen Muqing was very surprised.

Wang was also surprised and said, "Don't you wait for Uncle to believe them and come back?"

Jiang Shuangrui smiled and said, "When they saw the prince-consort, they were afraid they would have to drink and write poems again. How could they go back in the middle of the night? I would rather go back early in this way."

Wang stayed with a guest: "How come you have to go back after dinner! The girls and sisters-in-law at home have all gone to visit relatives, and you haven't met yet!"

Jiang Shuangrui politely refused: "Let's visit my sister-in-law and cousin in a few days!" As he said that, he looked at Chen Muqing again, "Why, my brother and sister stay here for more time? Let's go home with my third brother and others later?"

Since he did not follow Liang Jimin to the Prince Consort's Mansion, he stayed in the Deqing Marquis' Mansion and asked Jiang Shuangrui, who was pregnant, to go back alone. What's the matter!

If the Grandma and Feng knew about it, I still don’t know what to think?

Now we can only express our attitude and act with Jiang Shuangrui!

Chen Muqing stood timidly behind Jiang Shuangrui and said softly: "I also want to stay with my aunt and have fun for a while. But letting my second sister-in-law go back alone, I can't feel at ease. Although it's a little early to go back now, I'm young, so I can't make mistakes with my second sister-in-law." After that, he smiled shyly at Wang.

Wang couldn't help but nodded, and actually touched Chen Muqing's head lovingly: "You two sisters-in-law can be so intimate, what else can I say as my aunt?"

Jiang Shuangrui looked at Chen Muqing but smiled without saying a word.

The two followed Wang to leave Huang Jie, and Wang personally sent them to the Jiaomen: "Today is the second day of the lunar calendar, and there are many people on the road, so you should be careful."

The two of them responded to Wang's words and got into the warm sedan chair under the service of a large group of mothers and maids.

The Marquis' Mansion of Deqing is in Rizhaofang, half an hour away from the Marquis' Mansion of Dingyuan in Nanxunfang.

They walked for a while, and the sedan chair suddenly stopped.

Yanhong, the eldest maid next to Jiang Shuangrui, came over and said, "Grandma San Shao, our second young master is going to go shopping on Xilou Street. The second young master asked the third young master: Should I go back first, or go shopping with the third young master?"

Chen Muqing couldn't help but be stunned.

What exactly is Jiang Shuangrui going to do?

She couldn't help but smiled coldly in her heart and said, "Since that's the case, I'll go with the Second Young Master Grandma to open my eyes!"

The people outside didn't say anything for a long time, and after a long time, he said, "Please let me report to our grandma."

Liang Muqing said "um" softly.

After a while, Yanhong folded back and smiled through the curtain: "The Second Young Master said that since the Third Young Master also has this interest, it's better for everyone to go shopping together."

The sedan was lifted up again.

After about two cups of tea, the noise outside gradually became louder.

Chen Muqing knew that he was about to reach Xilou Street.

She lifted the corner of the curtain and looked out.

Because the market is closed during the Chinese New Year, the streets are much deserted than usual, but you can often see the big girl and daughter-in-law wearing red and green visiting relatives accompanied by their family.

When the sedan chair walked to the middle section of Xilou Street, it turned into a twisty alley.

The person carrying the sedan chair for Jiang Shuangrui seemed to be very familiar with the terrain here, and walked forward without hesitation. After a while, he stopped in front of Guangliang's door with a blue brick wall.

Yanhong went up and knocked on the door. The person who came to answer the door was a fifteen- or six-year-old servant who looked very familiar with Yanhong. Seeing the Liang family, she immediately opened the door and said to Yanhong: "Why did sister come so early this year?" Yanhong glanced at Chen Muqing's sedan chair and smiled, "It just happened to be nothing today, so I came earlier." While saying that, she led a few little maids and the servant who were carrying gift boxes.

Jiang Shuangrui's other maid Qiushui helped Jiang Shuangrui get out of the sedan chair.

Chen Muqing saw Jiang Shuangrui wearing a used stone blue cotton silk cloak, and walked straight into the door of the house.

It turns out that I was prepared for a long time.

Fortunately, this alley is very quiet, otherwise it would be difficult for her to go out.

Chen Muqing winked at Yingfen.

Yingfen asked Ma’s mother beside Jiang Shuangrui: “Mom, this is not the second young master’s mother’s home, right? We didn’t have any preparations in advance. It would be too rude to come to the door like this!”

The Mama smiled and said, "Look at what the girl said. It will be the third year of the junior high school tomorrow. How could our second young lady go back to her parents' home today? This is the house of the second young lady's former master. The second young lady comes to greet him every year."

Chen Muqing slowed down when Yingfen spoke. Now, after hearing what Mama said, he felt relieved and followed him with great strides.

The yard is a courtyard with three entrances, four or three bedrooms. There are grape trellis in the middle of the yard. There are goldfish tanks under the grape trellis. Peach trees and plum trees with eaves are planted in front of the main house. Several canna trees are planted in the corner of the wall. Under the eaves are hung with nanmu bird cages, orioles, and magpies are chirping. The white lattice paper is covered with red window flowers. The whole yard looks lively and full of life interest.

Chen Muqing fell in love with it at a glance.

Jiang Shuangrui stood in front of the Chuanhua Gate waiting for Chen Muqing. Seeing her following, he looked at Chen Muqing quietly, said softly, "Come with me", and led her to the main hall of the main room behind a little maid who had not left his head.

In the middle of the room was a man in his fifties standing behind him, two thirteen and four-year-old girls stood.

The man was wearing a lilac-colored Lu silk pleated dress, white and fat, with big belly, and his facial features were squeezed together, and only his cheeks were seen. In the winter, he was as thick, short and tender as a baby, and he was holding a red Jinchuan fan in his hand.

Both girls were wearing white silk jackets, bluestone-colored thread-lifted skirts, black hair tied up high, one was inserted with a butterfly hairpin with ruby, and the other was inserted with a butterfly hairpin with sapphire. Both were beautiful women with eyebrows like willow leaves, eyes like autumn water, and waist like willows. At first glance, Chen Muqing thought it was a twin.

Seeing Jiang Shuangrui, the old man's eyes, which were already small, immediately narrowed into a slit, and waved to her with a smile: "Come on, come on, come on, I got a bloodstone, come on, come on, come on and take a look!"

The little girl wearing ruby ​​ran over and pulled Jiang Shuangrui's hand and said, "Sister Jiang, why did you come today?" Seeing Chen Muqing behind Jiang Shuangrui, she opened her eyes wide and said, "Who is this sister?"

"Only you are so fussy that you can't hold back." The little girl wearing sapphire scolded the little girl Dai Hongshibao with a stern face, "You're not going to bring Zhang Wuzi to Sister Jiang."

The little girl wearing a ruby ​​left Jiang Shuangrui and left.
