Do you know: I’m Xu Jiazi

"Then he didn't come to the Marquis Mansion's thank you banquet. Could it be that the matter has been settled?" Wang said.

"This banquet is to thank the officials and family members of Yangzhou. What does it have to do with Taizhou? How can the Hou Mansion rush to post a post at the meeting?"

After listening to the old lady's words, Mr. Wang looked puzzled, and then thought of what he said just now, 'The status is equivalent to that of my father'.

Wang Ruofu suddenly realized and said: "Mother! Are you saying that in Yangzhou and Taizhou now, our Hua'er is the first-class good boy, and my grandfather is equal to the ancestors of the Gao family! These people are fighting for power? But, Gao There are no first- or second-grade high-ranking officials in the family now, what can make them like this?"

The old lady also looked at Xu Zaijing. Seeing that the old lady didn't speak, Wang Ruofu smiled at Xu Zaijing.

"Auntie, there are gold mines in Laizhou. One of them was given to the Gao family by the late emperor. It is now under the second bedroom." Xu Zaijing told the Wang family the news.

Sheng Hong was also a little surprised when he heard the word "gold mine". He only knew the family background of this colleague of the Gao family.

"Moreover, except for the eldest son, all the first-born children of the second wife are girls." After saying this, Xu Zaijing nodded to Mr. Wang.

The young master of the Gao family has the protection of his uncle. Whoever marryes a girl is like having a gold mine. There is no brother-in-law fighting for property. The intrigue between the sisters-in-law is really a Zheshe family with the power to protect the money.

"No wonder. But mother, shouldn't they help introduce a family to our Hua'er?" Wang asked with her eyes wide open.

"Can this be decided in a short while? You and your officials are not allowed to inquire about the details of the introduced son? How can you catch up with the direct slander that comes quickly and thoroughly." After speaking, the old lady shook her head.

"Then, mother, I and the official are also..."

As he said this, Wang looked at Sheng Hong with interest.

There was no expression on Sheng Hong's face. He glanced at the old lady and said, "Mother?"

"You make your own decision about this kind of thing. I'm tired too, so you guys can go back."

After the couple left the Shouan Hall, Xu Zaijing looked at the old lady and asked, "Auntie, won't you tell your cousin what happens next?"

The old lady shook her hand and said, "It's the same thing, but if they experience it and I tell it, the effect will be very different."

Outside Shou'an Hall,

Sheng Hong and Wang were walking: "When you didn't come to mother's place just now, you said that Sixth Girl found out these things for you?"

"Um."

"I've helped you so much, then I'll go see her."

"Officer, what about the Gao family brother?"

"talk later."

After saying that, Sheng Hong waved his hand and walked a few steps quickly.

"Madam, I see from the looks of the old lady and the master that they don't think very highly of this brother of the Gao family." Liu's mother said from the side.

"If it's not good, then what are the officials and family members of Yangzhou fighting for?" With that said, Wang also returned to Wei Ruixuan.

Side courtyard,

When Sheng Hong arrived, Xiaodie happened to be entering the courtyard with a food box. She hurriedly shouted: "Miss, the master is here."

Minglan heard the sound in the room and rushed out of the room with bright eyes.

"Dad! Why are you here?"

"I heard from the eldest lady that you helped her find out a lot of news today?"

Minglan smiled and nodded.

With that said, Sheng Hong led Minglan into the house.

There was a brazier burning in the room and it was a little hot, so Sheng Hong took off his robe.

Xiaodie and Wei Shuyi were a little unaccustomed to doing the dishes.

Looking at the sumptuous dishes in the evening, Sheng Hong nodded and said to Wei Shu, "How are you these days?"

"Okay." Then nothing more happened.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Minglan hurriedly said: "Dad, please try it! These are the dishes from Auntie's hometown."

"Oh, is it so!"

Sheng Hong and Wei Shuyi talked and drank several bowls of turtle soup. Sheng Hong passed the empty bowl to his side, but no one immediately helped him fill it up.

This was something Wei Ruixuan and Lin Qige had never encountered before, which made him wonder if his actions were not obvious.

He looked at Xiaodie, who was loading carbon on his back. He was a small little Tao,

Wei Shu reluctantly took the empty bowl.

Taking advantage of Wei Shu's permission to let Xiaodie go to serve the rice again,

Sheng Hong looked at the very sumptuous dinner, nodded, and praised in his heart.

His Shuang'er is indeed a weak and kind-hearted person.

On the second day,

after breakfast,

The concierge of the Sheng family received a message from Yangzhou's superintendent Si's family.

After arriving at Wei Ruixuan, Mrs. Wang was a little surprised and said to Liu's mother: "Well, the Gao family invites me over?"

Mother Liu frowned and said, "Madam, this slave feels a little unusual."

"how?"

"If you want to discuss marriage with Brother Bai, will you still consider it?" After hearing what Liu's mother said, Wang Ruofu pondered for a while and said, "But our Hualan family has always had a good reputation in Yangzhou. , I also had a handkerchief with Tijia’s daughter, maybe it was the girls from Tijia who said good things to Hua Lan?”

Mother Liu nodded and said, "Madam, what you said makes sense."

"Caihuan, go and ask the second-door man to prepare the carriage, call Hualan and let's go to Gao's house to have a look." After Wang said that, she changed into clothes under the service of Liu's mother.

Less than half a quarter of an hour later, Caihuan returned to Wei Ruixuan and said, "Madam, the eldest sister said that the old lady is not feeling well, so she will not accompany you."

Wang Ruofu was stunned and nodded: "That's fine."

When Wang Ruofu brought Liu's mother and Caihuan to the yard of Tixue Gao's family in Yangzhou,

At the second gate,

As soon as they got off the carriage, they saw the eldest lady of the Gao family standing by with a smile. When she saw that there was only Wang Ruofu and his servant in the carriage, and Hua Lan was not there, she looked a little unnatural.

"Here, why didn't your eldest sister come?"

After hearing Wang Ruofu's reasons, the eldest lady of the Gao family smiled and walked towards the yard with Mrs. Wang.

Mother Liu had been paying attention when she came. When she saw the unnatural expressions of the Gao family, she had a bad feeling in her heart.

Wang Ruofu, who was walking in front, said: "Yesterday, I heard the words of those rotten troughs in the Wuyi Lane garden. I never expected that you would invite me."

"We sisters have known each other for so many years, and the daughters in the family are all good friends. What they said is just to deceive outsiders who don't know about your family's situation. You don't know that my two daughters will give it to you in front of my relatives. Jia Hualan said so many good things."

Hearing what the tall lady said, Wang Ruofu glanced at Mother Liu with a smile.

After entering the mother's courtyard of the Gao family, Wang saw a middle-aged woman she had never seen before.

Seeing that Hua Lan was not following Wang Ruofu, she also had a look of disappointment on her face, but she quickly covered it up.

The three official family members were drinking tea and talking in the backyard. The son of the Gao family in Laizhou was also called out by her mother to meet Wang.

This noble young man was wearing blue clothes and was holding an arrow for playing hut in his hand. It seemed that he was a little unhappy when his mother called him because he delayed playing hut.

But he is a good-looking man with a face like a crown jewel and eyes like bright stars.

After the Gao family said hello, he left the house.

"Oh, I have to say, sister-in-law, you really gave birth to a good child." Wang Ruofu praised sincerely with a smile in his eyes. The lady from Laizhou also raised her lips, but the smile in her eyes was not much.

"It's a pity that I didn't see your eldest sister today, but I can trust what the daughters of my relatives say. Our Gao family is the male partner."

"Madam! It's broken!" Mother Liu clapped her hands and interrupted the conversation rudely.

Wang Ruofu glanced at Liu's mother in surprise.

Mother Liu pretended to be panicked and said: "Madam, have you forgotten what our old lady ordered!?"

Wang Ruofu: "Huh?"

Seeing Wang Ruofu's appearance, Liu's mother quickly took her hand and walked out. Wang Ruofu didn't forget to turn around and give her a smile.

The two eldest ladies of the Gao family in the room were also a little confused by Liu's mother's actions.

When they came outside the house, Liu's mother spoke quickly in Wang Ruofu's ear: "Madam, today we just took a look at the post from the tirist. The marriage of the eldest sister still needs to be discussed with the master, moreover. What's more, this lady from Laizhou is talking about betrothal gifts. It's too early to say this! Let's not argue with the facts!"

"It's not that serious!"

"There was a rumor yesterday that the man whom others call a rich husband has specifically come to find you today. Don't you feel something is wrong? If the eldest sister comes and looks at each other and sees that our eldest sister is outstanding in talent, then it will be okay. You haven't even seen this person, yet you dare to decide on her son's betrothal gift based on the words of two girls from Ti Jia? Would you do this?"

Wang Ruofu said hesitantly: "This is just casual chat, how can it be as serious as you said!"

"Girl! You are very different! You think it is just chatting. Maybe others think you have fallen in love with someone else's brother and want to discuss marriage? You should go home and ask the master and the old lady for instructions. It's never too late for a good relationship, and it's never too late for a good meal! Let’s go back and discuss it first, let the Wang family’s relatives inquire about it, and then we can discuss this later.”

Wang Ruofu was also frightened by what Liu's mother said. She still knew of Liu's mother's loyalty to her for more than ten years.

"Okay, okay, let's go back first. I'll listen to you!"

Mrs. Wang took Liu's mother and Caihuan to say goodbye. The two members of the Gao family looked at the Sheng family's carriage that was leaving. The eldest lady who was studying said sarcastically: "She wasn't so smart before! The Yuan family's marriage was ruined, and the girl was raped. It’s unlucky to say it’s unlucky to be posted by someone from such a good family like ours at this time.”

The eldest lady in Laizhou sighed and said, "I'm just impatient. I hope their family won't find out. My brothers and sisters, are there any families in Yangzhou who are better than the Sheng family?"

Shengjia

Wang, who returned home, listened to Liu's mother's analysis along the way. The more she listened, the more she felt that she had almost harmed Hualan.

When she arrived in the backyard, she felt uneasy. After thinking about it, she took Liu's mother and Caihuan to Shou'an Hall.

After passing the female envoy Tong Bing, Wang entered the Shou'an Hall. Whether it was because she smelled the incense or saw the old lady, Wang's mood instantly improved a lot.

The old lady glanced at her and said, "How does it feel to go to Tijia?"

Wang talked about her experience in one breath.

When the old lady heard what Wang said, especially when the eldest lady of the Gao family in Laizhou talked about the betrothal gift, the old lady smiled sarcastically.

"Mother, Mother Liu next to me said, this is not good, you"

The old lady glanced at Mama Liu appreciatively and said, "You are right."

"Thank you, madam, for the compliment."

"Mother, do you know anything?" Wang asked suddenly as she looked at the old lady.

Mother Fang served the tea, and the old lady said, "Drink some tea."

"Actually, Brother Jing told the old lady what he knew yesterday."

Seeing Wang's surprised look, the old lady continued: "Last year during the confrontation in the north, the children of Zhongjing Hou Zheng's family recruited troops on Jingdong East Road and learned about the descendants of the late emperor's famous ministers."

After glancing at Wang Ruofu, the old lady continued: "Their family looks down on the noble military generals, and to make people anxious, some people use their family's private affairs as a ladder to get in. The bad things about the second house, It’s unspeakable. Anyway, their family’s reputation is already bad over there.”

The old lady waved her hand, obviously disgusted.

This made Wang even more curious, and she looked at Fang's mother.

Fang's mother endured the discomfort and said: "Madam, their father and son are getting together."

No heating, is it so cold?
