Dan Ju stood beside the hall, with several blue veins bursting on his forehead, and his eyes were wide open and very hideous. He was gritting his teeth and remembering these relatives, and was going to review the knowledge points for Ming Lan when he returned. Ming Lan felt distressed about today's bleeding , I was ashamed of my confusion, and murmured a few words in a low voice; the little peach at the side of the waiter listened and quickly encouraged: "Girl, you are the one who knows what is good."

"Knowing people and doing things." Minglan felt more comfortable.

After the acknowledgment, a series of maids filed in with tea trays and fruits. The men were still sitting in the hall eating tea and talking, and the female relatives got up and walked a few steps in. The hall was very large and sideways. While using a lacquered wood fan with a flower-carved painted lacquer on one side, it is slightly separated, and the faces are visible on both sides.

Several round tables were placed in it, and there were a lot of four-color tea fruits on top. Ming Lan was pulled by the enthusiastic Zhu and sat beside him. Several young daughter-in-laws rushed to talk to Ming Lan, Ming Lan Because they couldn't recognize who they were, they all smiled shyly. Fortunately, the first time I met, I couldn't say anything about the substance.

Comment her new clothes are good-looking, Minglan said: "Where is it."

Complimenting her exquisite jewellery hairpin among her boudoirs, Minglan continued to huh: "Thanks for the prize."

Complimenting her for her bright and generous appearance, Minglan blushed and then hehe: "How dare you dare."

...and so on.

After a few words, all the little wives and elders found Minglan boring. They couldn't make fun of them. They couldn't say a few words, so they scattered by themselves and sat together and joked. Minglan was at the table. Only Mrs. Tai, four old ladies, five old ladies, and Mrs. Shao, sister-in-law Xuan and the Zhu family.

"...Fortunately, my sister-in-law is blessed. All the daughters-in-law here are outstanding. Look at Ye brother and daughter-in-law. They are really beauties falling from the sky. I like them all when I look at them!" Laughing, I can’t help but look at Minglan, wearing a purple and gold two-tone brocade with a pair of breasts, which is quite luxurious. "Compared with my nephew and daughter-in-law, those few of my family can’t get it!"

Mrs. Xuan Da took a sip of tea, and tried to swallow: "Oh my mother-in-law, you have to praise this godlike younger brother and sister, I have nothing to say, who is really good, but you also save a few for your wife Face-splitting!" She fell into the arms of the four old ladies, and the four old ladies laughed and scolded: "You cheeky monkey, do you want to save face today?"

Everyone laughed, Ming Lan made a shy look, smiled and lowered her head-looking at her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law so affectionate, I am afraid that no one would have thought that this fourth old lady is the successor, but Gu Tingxuan is The son left by the first wife.

In contrast, the five old ladies are much quieter. She only took Minglan’s hand and said quietly: "You just came here, I don’t know. In the past few years, your mother-in-law has worked hard at home. Gentle and peaceful, pity the poor and cherish the humble, love the old and the young, are the most appropriate people."

The four old ladies also said: "Who said no? She has to take care of Brother Yu's health, she has to help her with her daughter-in-law butler, and Sister Xian has to take care of her. It's really hard for her to worry about it!"

The wife smiled: "Look at you two, hey... it's fine, but I'm thick-skinned and I'm not ashamed, so please continue to praise."

This sentence made everyone laugh again, and Mrs. Shao looked at Mrs. Tai with gratitude.

The five old ladies have a thin face and a gentle temperament. They continued with Minglan in a low voice: "Don't just listen to outsiders, your mother-in-law is not easy; now that you have entered the door, you will have to persuade Ye brothers more. , A harmonious family is the way to flourish a family."

The four old ladies enthusiastically said, "Yes, yes"; Minglan naturally nodded hard.

While talking and laughing, suddenly a loud dispute came from outside, only to hear the four old ladies angrily say: "...Gu Tingye, how are you! You are good now, so you don’t give your uncle face! Going up to the sword and down to the sea of ​​fire is just going out to have a drink at night. It is also the kindness of your uncle and brother. You look down on people like that?"

Gu Tingye sat quietly, neither overbearing nor overbearing: "I haven't clarified the military affairs in the camp. I still have to take care of a few important things that the emperor has given me. After lunch today, I will go back to the governor's house. This wine... Drink again."

The four old ladies’ beards were blown up, and they patted the table loudly: "You don’t use errands to excuse me! You think I’ve never seen the world, your old man was ten times busier than you at the beginning, but my brother called When did you say that you shouldn't? Your uncle spoke, how dare you not?" While talking, he was about to rush forward, as if he wanted to kick a few feet, Gu Tingxuan desperately hugged his father, and then he After a few words in the ear, the fourth old lady remembered that this was not his own son, and he was not good at beating and scolding, so he sat down angrily.

"Ting Ye was not as capable as his late father, unable to look after him, my uncle, forgive me." Gu Tingye looked at the fourth old lady coldly, his stern eyes suddenly rose, and he took it back in an instant. The fourth old lady saw him suddenly full With a murderous look and a gloomy complexion, there was a bit of trembling for a while, but some did not dare to be presumptuous, don't turn your face and stop talking.

When the five elders saw this, they were quite dissatisfied, frowning and frowning: "You have official duties to be busy with banquets, that's all; but why must you leave the house to live in another place? Wouldn't it be better to live in your own home? Are you happy if you want to get rumors from the outside world?"

Ming Lan's heart sighed. She remembered that Gu Tingye said last night that Mrs. Madam had promised them to live in another place. Why did it happen again? While thinking about it, I went to peek at Mrs. Tai, and saw that Mrs. Tai was embarrassed, stood up and said worriedly outside: "Uncle Wu, forget it, forget it! Don't say it! Brother Ye is going to live out. , Must have its own reason!"

The four old ladies sat down with Mrs. Tai, and said gently: "What is the reason, the mother is still there, and the son is not around to be filial, what is the reason? No matter how beautiful Ye is outside, the unfilial mother is The first sin." As he said, he went to look at Minglan.

Minglan continued to lower her head and said in her heart, you can pull it down, who are you bluffing? When I am the mallet! That's right, disobedience is indeed a felony, and if you fall on any official, you will have to get rid of the skin, but this is limited to the parents or heirs recognized by the law! This is the stepmother, okay? It's a marginal ball in the etiquette. Since ancient times, the stepmother and the aunt have been awkward, and the patriarchal court has not been in charge.

At the time when Sheng Hong settled the case in Dengzhou, it was the same two cases where the old lady hooked up with a man to kill his father. The concubine killed his aunt and was sentenced to military service, but he was sentenced to migrating a few hundred miles. After a few years, the reunion will be over. Sheng Hong was severely praised by the local senior gentry for the judgment of these two cases, and he gave a plaque with a plaque of "Ding Mirror Hanging High".

——It’s just that, I can’t say it clearly, oooo, uncle, you are so pathetic.

Sure enough, Gu Tingyi over there was speechless for a moment, frowned deeply, full of anger and faint anger, but the fifth old lady is a noble scholar who is not afraid at all. He stared straight and continued to reprimand: The mansion is given by the emperor. If you don’t live it, you can do it with you. What can you do if you live there? The so-called filial piety is the first, nurturing kindness is greater than birth kindness, how can you be so confused after reading when you were young? Is it wrong to say you are not leaving?"

Gu Tingye clenched his fists, his face gradually became solemn and stern, quietly watching the fifth grandfather for a long time, the fifth grandfather glared at each other, after a while, Gu Tingye slowly stood up, standing long, not angry and faint Said: "It's difficult for the Holy Order, I will leave in the afternoon."

In just ten words, after speaking, Gu Tingye respectfully clasped his fists, rolled his sleeves and flicked, turned and left, leaving behind a bunch of people in the hall looking at each other, and the five elders almost turned their backs in anger—like Gu Tingye can't say the same thing, he can't really go to the Siyamen to tell Gu Tingye's disobedience, Gu Tingye is a rogue who played extremely well!

Minglan couldn't help applauding, but--

Gu Tingye was too blunt to leave like this, which made Minglan who stayed very embarrassed. All the women looked at her with dissatisfaction. Minglan also wanted to retreat, but her seat was a blind spot, and she was caught by Zhu. Shi and the fourth old lady were blocked, her scalp was numbed by the eyes of everyone, and she cursed Gu Tingye for not being righteous, and she only retreated by herself, leaving her behind!

Mrs. Xuan Da can't go down and come out. In the room full of silence, she chuckled and said: "Oh, brother and sister, see you, your second master is this stubborn temper! You can get it later. Be careful!"

Minglan nodded repeatedly.

At this time, the atmosphere relaxed a little. The four old ladies outside paused heavily for the tea cup, and said displeased: "If you don't understand the etiquette, no matter how great the credit is, it will be in vain!"

As soon as this remark was made, many people criticized Gu Tingye from both inside and outside. Although the words were very cryptic, they probably had the same meaning.

Gu Tingcan, the seventh girl, was particularly angry, and she said loudly, "My mother treats my second brother like this, but my second brother is so unfilial." He caught a glimpse of Minglan lowering his head, without saying a word, and said loudly: "Second sister What do you say?... I heard that my second wife has been reading poems and etiquette since childhood, so I must know what filial piety is. You also judge something today! Do you think the second brother did the right thing?"

Mrs. Xuanda frowned and looked at Minglan worriedly. Everyone gathered their eyes. Even the men outside calmed down. Minglan sneered and raised her head slowly, her face calm. Relaxed, with two small pear vortices at the corners of his mouth, the girls were quite surprised.

Ming Lan did not answer directly, but she said loudly: "Two years ago, the former Shangshu Lu of the Ministry of Industry received the commendation from the sage for "Diligence and caution, young and decent", not only promoted the cabinet to the second assistant, but soon after, He also rewarded a mansion in Xifumen."

"What do you say about this..." Gu Tingcan couldn't help but interrupt, and was immediately pressed by Mrs. Shao.

Ming Lan broke her fingers and said slowly: "In fact, Mr. Lu’s old mansion is pretty good. Although it is a little far away from the imperial city, it is beautiful and beautiful. The most wonderful thing is Mr. Lu’s old friends and even a few The family and relatives live in that area. It is a good thing to get together on weekdays and discuss briefly! At that time, I heard that many relatives and friends advised him not to move, and just live in the same place. Can you run away? Hey... But after Mr. Lu took the order, he moved there without saying a word; Mrs. Lu said that if you don't accept it, it is disrespectful."

The two halls inside and outside became quieter. I only heard the four old ladies squeezing the tea lid, the crisp ding-dong porcelain, the fifth old ladies' chest was stuffy, but they didn't speak anymore. This big hat is buckled. When I came down, no one could scold any more. The room was silent for a long time, and the wife sighed: "It's hard for the two uncles and Brother Ye to make trouble for my old lady."

Zhu is the most clever, he quickly got up and smiled: "Yes, the second uncle is a loyal emperor, and the fourth uncle and the fifth uncle are for filial piety. Everyone is right. I'll go and see how I have to eat lunch. Let’s go, prepare a few cups of good wine, uncles and second uncles, have a couple of drinks, and just talk about it!"

The four old ladies also hurriedly finished the game and said loudly: "Brother Wei and daughter-in-law are very worried, we also put a table for wine; it is our own family, what can't be said!"

After these few words, the atmosphere became much more relaxed. Everyone gradually started talking again, and the room was full of joy. Ming Lan sighed with relief, bowed her head and joked with Mrs. Xuan Da, just said a few words, suddenly A timid girl came in at the door, she flashed into the room cautiously, Ming Lan squinted and saw that it was Xia Zhu, and she saw her pale, shivering and whispering: "...Second Madam, Second Master calls you In the past, I said that many cages did not know how to deal with..."

The females in the back room looked very weird. They all looked at Ming Lan with a weird smile. Ming Lan had a fever on her face, and her heart was furious: Grandma has cleaned the battlefield now, and she needs you to save her. field? Rely on you? The girl has long been cannon fodder?

The man is really unreliable?
