C10 (2/2)
A few cousins came up to see him, and a few cousins came out to play with him.
Li Minghua said a few words, but he quietly pulled the elder sister into the room and said, ”Brother is more than three years old, why haven't you gotten pregnant yet? If you don't get pregnant at this big house, you might end up getting a concubine. You better be careful. ”Also, I saw you bringing those two girls with you today. It's fine if Chun Ying followed you from the countryside, but the other girl looks and doesn't say anything. She's not a simple person. You have to be careful.”
Since elder sister said that Qiu Tang was given to her by Old Lady He, it wasn't good for her to bring her little girl along when she had to go out today. With her there, it was naturally inconvenient for her to speak.
Li Minghua quietly said, ”He family wives are well-known in the capital. Your father is only a seventh rank official and you don't have much money on your own, so I'm afraid they don't place any importance on you. However, since you've just arrived, they will not make things difficult for you for the sake of being virtuous and virtuous, but after a while, it will be hard to say.
”I know that.” The elder sister comforted Li Minghua by patting his hand and said, ”Thank you for your advice, aunt.”
Since she still had to go and see Third Uncle Fang Yao and Third Aunt Tang Mei, she didn't dare to stay for long. She was going to leave soon, so she said to Fang Xiao and Li Minghua, ”Second Uncle and Second Aunt, if you are free today, please come and talk to me at He family. If I'm free, I'll come and walk around. ”
Fang Wenfeng laughed, ”Since we still have to greet Third Uncle, I haven't seen them for a long time. Let's go together!”
Fang Xiao and Li Minghua were extremely reluctant to part with their child. The Fang family's children held hands and held their feet as they said, ”Little brother and little sister, remember to come and play next time!”
Only after they got into the carriage did Fang Wenfeng smile and say, ”When I received your letter about coming over to father and mother's place, I came early to wait for you. Now that I want to see you again, it really isn't easy!”
”What's so difficult about it? If you want to see me, then just go to the He manor.” The elder sister smiled and said, ”It's just that it's not easy for me to come out!”
”Other palaces are fine, but I'm a bit scared when I think about going to the He manor.” Because Fang Wenfeng mentioned the rouge shop she shared with Sun Xiao Si and elder sister, he smiled and said, ”Now, the shop makes money. Those familiar noble women are all willing to come to our shop to buy things, and they even ask if there are any whitewashed plasters! Last time, there was a fat lady who came and saw Xiao Si. She recognized her father as the one who opened the medicine store, and even let him take a look at the medicine. She joked that if he was able to help reduce the fat on his body, he would be willing to pay a lot of money.
As the two chatted, they arrived at the Tang Mansion, but Fang Yao wasn't there. Tang Mei, her daughter-in-law, Lin Wan Ru, and her daughter-in-law came out to welcome them. Lin Wanru even sighed. ”How much luck do you need to be able to give birth to a pair of beautiful women?”
Because he had woken up early this morning, he was exhausted. As soon as he entered the Tang Mansion, he fell asleep. Tang Mei hurriedly carried her to her room and slept. After reminding her daughter to watch over the room properly, she went out to talk to her elder sister.
He Yuan recognized the bed. Even though he was tired, he didn't sleep deeply, but he heard the two girls who were guarding them talking. One of them said softly, ”Madam, this niece of yours came to our house before. He had never expected to end up being the Young Mistress of the He Estate. ”And this grand show, to think that there would be two carriages out there. Who would have thought that she was only a country girl before!”
”Shh, lower your voice!” The other girl said, ”Her life is good, no one can envy her. Thinking about how many girls in the capital had offered to marry into the He family even if they wanted to, who knew that they wouldn't be able to? Instead, it was this person who didn't have much dowry and didn't even have a family background that married into the capital. If she wanted to stay safely in the mansion, then so be it. But if she were to leave the banquet, those who hated her would have to give her trouble! It's not that easy to be married off to a free man. ”
When He Yuan heard this, he was secretly shocked. It seems like this old lady still has some difficulties! This won't do. If this old lady were to leave the banquet in the future, she would pester her to leave together. She wouldn't even mention a child of hers. Yet, he himself could help this old lady cause trouble for others.
After the birth of the dragon and the phoenix had woken up, they ate at the Tang residence. The elder sister did not dare to delay any longer and returned to the Residence of He with the birth of a dragon and phoenix.
After returning to the manor, Matriarch He asked the little girl Qiushui to pass along the news that a guest had arrived. Because she heard that the child was adorable, she insisted on meeting him and had him bring him out to meet the guest.
The elder sister hurriedly changed her clothes and also helped Longfeng Embryo change. After a while, she asked the young girl who had sent the message, ”Do you know who is this esteemed guest?”
”Young Mistress, it's Mrs. Shang Shu who brought her brother here. ”Originally, I wanted to let Young Master see her brother's face, but after Young Master followed Master out, Lady Shang Shu asked about you and my brother, and in a short while, she said that she wanted to meet you.” Seeing that both his elder sister and the dragon and phoenix were dressed brightly, Qiu Shui smiled. ”If Lady Shang saw my sister like this, she would definitely love me.”
When the lady brought Long Feng's womb to the front of the hall, she heard a burst of hearty laughter from inside. A voice said, ”This brat He Nian was one of the best when he was young, and now there are many beauties in the capital who don't want to marry, but have instead gone to the countryside and married one of them. I must see it today before I go back! ”
