Hualan left Shou'antang and went to Wang's room. Wang had been waiting in the back room to heat up the earth dragon. Seeing his daughter came in, he was busy calling the maid's cup of tea. Hualan saw that there was only Wang in the house. One person asked: "Where is Sister Zhuang?"
Wang took his daughter to sit on the kang, and smiled: "I'm stubborn with your sisters. The tables and chairs in their house are moved to open up an open space. Several girls are playing'blind men' Well, stay with mom next to me, don’t worry."
Hua Lan took the hand stove handed by Caihuan and turned to Wang's smile and said, "I have nothing to worry about, this is probably Liu Yatou's idea again. When I come back, I am impatient to coax the child like Lan Molan. ."
"Lady Liu is also a kid herself, she's having fun, she happened to be with Sister Zhuang." Wang looked at the door, waved to tell all the maids in the room to go out, and the last colored ring put the curtain down , Guard the door.
Wang walked to Hualan and sat down, and took a lot of his daughters together. Seeing that her face looked like new makeup, and her eyelashes were still a bit moist, he whispered: "Did you talk to the old lady?" "
Hua Lan was tired next to Wang, half-closed her eyes and said: "Grandma's eyes are golden, how I can hide it, I simply said." Wang saw his daughter's expression weak, but her spirit stretched a bit. Knowing that this conversation was good, I asked: "What did the old lady tell you?"
Hua Lan opened her eyes and smiled and said: "After all, my grandmother has seen the world and heard about my in-law's mess. She only taught me two things. One is to quickly throw out the housekeeping job. "Wang was anxious when he heard it, and quickly cut his mouth: "The old lady is confused. You can manage the house so hard. How much effort has been spent these years, how can you just let it go."
Hua Lan sighed: "I can't bear it either, but my grandmother is right. Boss Zhongqin will not be your son-in-law in the future. No matter how well he manages it, he will also make clothes for others. Silver; besides, my current priority is to have a son."
Wang heard it and snorted: "Nonsense, I also know that you have to have a son. The old lady said it was the same as if she didn't say it."
Hua Lan gave her mother a white look, and said angrily: "Mother, you just said it and didn't say it. Grandma not only said it, but also gave me a trick, saying that she knows the old lady of the He family in Baishitan, He old man People’s natal family is the Zhang family of the three-generation imperial hospital. The old lady has studied medicine at her natal family since she was a child. Apart from anything else, she is the best in women’s internal diseases, but she is a boudoir, not as good as a man’s family. It is feasible to help the world, and it is not easy to be publicized. No one knows after marrying; this time my grandmother asked her to go."
When Wang heard this, he beamed his eyebrows and said: "Really? I really don't know about it. Fortunately, the old lady knows the details. Although you have a concubine by your side, you are not as good as your own. For the sake of face, it’s not good to ask the doctor with a big fanfare, and those are all men, how to look carefully; I really pity my son."
Hualan’s eyes flashed with hope, and she said joyfully: "Grandma said that there is no need to say anything about it. Only when Mrs. He was invited to be a guest at home, I returned to my family’s house, so I had to dump the housekeeper. It’s so easy to get out and take care of it slowly."
Wang’s hands clasped his hands together and read the Buddha repeatedly: “Amitabha, my grand prince, now my son is hopeful. The old lady speaks the most honestly. If she says that Mrs. He is good, there will be no ten but eight. It's nine points." Now that the task of giving birth to a son, Wang feels that the butler is not important.
Hua Lan leaned on Wang's shoulder lazily, and said softly: "Mother, it's nice that you are here in Beijing; I can support it."
Wang took his daughter's body, cherishing his heart, but cursed softly in his mouth: "It's because you have a strong temperament and refuse to tell the truth in the letter. Your mother-in-law is so partial that your sister-in-law cannot give birth to a son. It’s delicious and delicious. It’s been a few years before you have a son. You have a baby only a few years ago, so you hurriedly stuffed a girl. After all, you still have your brain. I got her face, and gave birth to a son to stop your mother-in-law’s mouth."
Hua Lan was upset, and said bitterly: "Sister-in-law is a mother-in-law's niece, so she is naturally better than me. Now her family is no longer an official, and she still puts on airs." Wang patted his daughter on the back and smiled: "You It’s good to know, your son-in-law is capable, and you will have a good life in the future after you split the family. Don’t get angry with them now, it’s important to be a son."
Hua Lan was also looking forward to it, and said softly: "I hope so."
Wangs hugged his daughter for a while, his thoughts were far away, and he said: "Now your brother is set, and when your sister finds a good family, mother will have nothing to ask for."
Hua Lan raised her head, sneered softly, stretched her voice and said: "Mother, you should honestly give Rulan to your cousin, while your grandmother is still tough now, your aunt is not long-winded, if you change your mind to your aunt I will laugh at my belly."
Wang became angry, and wanted to beat Hualan, and cursed: "You are a heartless man, you are married into the earl's mansion, so you are not happy for your sister to become a good relative? Although your uncle is good, but now in the end It’s beautiful without your grandfather, and my nephew is old and awkward, I’m afraid your sister will be a waste."
Hua Lan smiled and avoided Wang's slap, holding her arm and saying: "Even though my uncle is not high in rank, but my grandfather's family is still there for so many years, it's good for my cousin to be honest. Suddenly I felt sad, "Mother, do you think I have a good life at my in-laws? Speaking of Zhongqin Boss House, it is still neglected. If this is a magnificent knighthood, I might not be able to show off; you always say I have a bad temper, but Rulan She is not as good as me, and she was born average, how can she survive in that high gate compound."
Wang looked tired when she saw her daughter, knowing that she was not having an easy life, so he sighed slightly, and was silent for a while, Hualan smiled: "However, I really didn't expect Liu Yatou to be here. It's so good, and her manners and conversations are also likable. After a few years, I will take her out to meet people. Maybe I can find a good relationship. My grandmother is definitely happy."
When Wang saw the eldest daughter burying his sister, he praised Ming Lan, and immediately stared: "Don't worry about it. The old lady of Ming girl's marriage has already had an idea. It's the grandson of the Baishitan He family. Oh, it seems There are also your aunt’s cousin and elder aunt’s elder brother. For this, the old lady went back to her hometown on purpose and recorded Minglan in my name."
Hua Lan was a little bit shocked when he heard the three candidates coming out of Wang's breath, and then smiled: "What's wrong with the old lady? Didn't she just be pleasing to the scholars in her early years? The aunt and the aunt's parents were both Merchants; the He family is pretty good. Although there are not many officials in the clan and the official rank is not high, it is a big family, but can they look at Minglan?"
Wang also laughed, and said with an open eyebrow: "Who said no? The old lady didn't care much when he told the **** to kiss, but now it's Minglan's turn, but she wants to open it all. Is it partial? , Refused to suffer from Liuyao! Oh, yes, the grandson of the He family is partial."
Hualan Liu raised her eyebrows and said, "Mother, you have been arrogant with Aunt Lin these years, and confused? How does she compare with my sixth sister, she is just a kindly adopted old lady who has no money and no power. Without relatives and no reason, even if you want to choose a rich and distinguished family, they may not be admired; but the sixth sister is our family’s own blood, the granddaughter of the old lady, with grandmother and father and brother on her head, and wife and sisters below, so she can’t be with you. I and Rulan are not bad anymore."
Wang said with a cold face: "What are you doing so hot? She didn't come out of the same womb with you!" Hualan spread out her hands and teased her expression: "No way, come out with me. That one, don’t stand out."
After finishing talking, he dodged mischievously. Who knew that Wang was not angry this time, and sighed: "Oh...you father and daughter have a tone, and your father said the same way. A few days later, Xiangyang Hou Qi Ten birthday banquet guests, he also told me to bring Molan Minglan."
Hua Lan was taken a little surprised, and then she understood: "Daddy is reasonable in thinking this way. It's always helpful to be able to climb a good relationship at home. It's just that... if the girl Mo is married well, wouldn't it be a bitch? More proud?"
Mother and daughter looked at each other, and they all had the same meaning in their hearts. In fact, Wang didn't want to use his hands and feet, but Rulan was not married yet, and she was not married, so she couldn't ruin the reputation of Sheng's daughter.
That night, Yuan Wenshao came to the Sheng Mansion after finishing his errand, and kowtow to the old lady Sheng, and then chatted and laughed with Zhang Yue and three brothers in law. Yuan Wenshao is a wise man. As the military attache of the Ximeng family, it was originally difficult. To get in touch with the Qingliu civil servants, Sheng Hong marries his children by stepping on the turbidity, which happens to be right and left.
Seeing the liveliness at home, Wang simply invited his elder sister and brother-in-law, the Kang family, to gather together, together with the young couple Changwu, so Sheng's family opened two big banquets.
In the outer seats, the men coveted each other and talked about the exchanges in the officialdom. They were lively and lively. There was a women's seat in the next room. Ming Lan listened carefully to the voices outside and felt in her heart. In ancient times, it was indeed a family. The society is a pure stream of scholars who study the imperial examinations. It also pays great attention to the intertwined and complicated relationship between teachers and students in the same year, but...this is not the case in modern times.
Ming Lan remembers in a magazine that most of the future political leaders of foreign countries were trained by a few top universities. For example, Oxford Cambridge held a large class reunion and dropped a bomb in it, and the number of political figures in the UK You can basically catch it all in one go.
Although the official ranks on the table outside are not high, and the highest is only the fifth rank of Sheng Hong, together, the family strength is not small.
The family reunion, Wang is very happy. After drinking a few more glasses, his face is blushing, but Aunt Kang is a little haggard. Compared with his sister, she is more inferior, but just look Yoona's face was ruddy, and she became even more charming and relieved after the wedding. Finally, this marriage was a good one. She even toasted the old lady several cups, and the old lady drank it happily, and then called the house mom. Helped back to rest.
Sister Zhuang’s face was as red as rouge. She and Minglan chased after me and played for the whole afternoon. The whole person was alive, and she sat next to Minglan during dinner, Hualan Seeing that her daughter is cheerful and talkative, she is even more happy.
Ming Lan is exhausted, she understands a truth deeply, no matter how shy the little things seem, they are also energy-intensive when they go crazy. Now she desperately wants to get rid of this little burden.
At night, the old lady Sheng was afraid that the little girls would not take care of Ming Lan after drinking and blowing air. So she asked her mother to take Ming Lan to Shou’an Tang to sleep, and poured a bowl of sober tea and a bowl of **** soup. After that, Minglan was much more comfortable, so she was confused and let her undress. Finally, she ate her belly and hugged her grandmother’s arm and fell asleep dizzy. After lying down for a while, she didn’t fall asleep for some reason. Some spirits, the grandfather and grandson simply talked about it.
"This is the first time I saw Uncle Kang. Why... it's not the same as what I heard, far from Daddy." Minglan remembered the scene when Shi Cai asked An and kowtow. Uncle Kang should have been with Sheng Hong when he was young. The same, he was a handsome young man, but now Sheng Hong is still a handsome middle-aged man, Uncle Kang looks overly drunk, with muddy eyes and an arrogant attitude.
The old lady sighed and said: "Your father was a little bit more cautious, knowing that today’s days are hard-won, after experiencing the warmth and warmth of human relationships, but your uncle is the only child in the family, and Mrs. Kang's pampering... …" Did not go on.
Minglan secretly added: Loving mothers often lose children.
"Aunt Kang was born so well, she doesn't look much like his wife." Ming Lan thought of the haggard middle-aged beautiful woman, suddenly her heart moved, and she leaned on the old lady's side with her round belly, "In the beginning, why did you Do you not marry her?"
The old lady Sheng touched the shining charcoal fire on the ground, twisted Minglan’s warm face, and cursed: "You little thing, you are honest on the outside. You dare to say anything when you come to me. Did you ask?" Minglan rubbed her head against her grandmother's arms like a spoiled child, and the old lady who only rubbed her smiled itchy.
"Back then, I just came to ask for a kiss, and I didn’t know which one to ask for. It was Grandpa Wang’s meaning, and it was also your Aunt Kang who looked at it through the curtain and picked it by herself." The old lady said indifferently, "Grandpa Wang and Mrs. Kang was the first emperor’s most important minister, and the two names were the same. At that time, your uncle Kang had just passed the entrance examination, and he was very high-spirited; and in our family, your grandfather died young and had no foundation in officialdom, nor did she It’s a mistake."
Minglan nodded, but suddenly felt wrong again, a bright light flashed in her mind, and a thought in her heart, she leaned in and said softly, "Grandma, maybe...you didn't think of asking Aunt Kang in the first place?"
The Kang Wang family had a good relationship and had an verbal marriage contract long ago, but there is no certain girl, but everyone knows that the eldest daughter of the Wang family is the eldest daughter rather than the second daughter raised by his uncle since childhood, so there is no surprise. The Wang family will marry the eldest daughter to the Kang family, and then the second daughter to the Sheng family who has a relatively shallow foundation.
I can't see the expression of the old lady Sheng in the dim, but she reached out and patted Minglan on the head, seeming to applaud: "I want the highest class and the perfect girl, which round will I get you? And I also asked , Although your mother has a straight-tempered and aggressive temper, but she is not bad at heart and knows how to take care of the house. She can't do really vicious things. That would be great. If there is no..., cough, let's Family is also considered harmonious."
Ming Lan nodded greatly. Wang's measurement is small, he likes to be careless, and he is not generous to others, but he really can't be regarded as a bad person. She can't handle this kind of bad idea because of drug abortion. Will be calculated by Aunt Lin.
"Your Aunt Kang, looking at her kind eyebrows and good-looking eyes, but with great means. Over the years, in your uncle's house, I don't know how many lives have been killed; how many concubine rooms have been sold." The old lady said again.
Ming Lan was not in a hurry to communicate this time, and she was silent for a while and then slowly said: "If it weren't great, the Kang family would be even worse now; Aunt Kang is an official who forced the people to rebel. The name, those in the house are considered to have troubled the pond fish, and it is inevitable that the fox deserves it, but the one who is really at fault, the world rarely blames him much."
This is a patriarchal society. Whoever doesn't want to be pearls, who wants to become fish-eyes, but under the pressure of life, there are a few lucky pearls that can always keep their luster and beauty.
"Hehe, it seems that my Ming girl has grown up." The old lady seemed to be smiling, "Since you understand, that is the best; you have to know, if you have a better daughter, Lai Han is also abandoned, and marrying a man is the second time a woman is reborn."
Ming Lan leaned against the neck of the old lady, only feeling a warm and soft sandalwood, and her heart was unspeakable closeness, so she whispered: "However, it is easy to know a few words, but it is difficult to know a person; Many Lai Hans are wearing painted skins."
These words made the old lady amused. She put her little granddaughter in her arms and laughed for a while before she said: "Little girl, why do you speak in a tone that resembles Queen Jing'an; she rarely blames her concubine in the harem , Only count the account on Lord Xiandi."
Ming Lan's heart moved, before she had time to speak, Mrs. Sheng spoke again, this time with an unprecedented indifference and solemn tone: "But, Ming girl, you have to remember that when it comes to that situation, it will be your life and death; If you just pity others, you will die! Back then, Queen Jing'an killed a so-called good sister and died so early!"
Ming Lan's heart was shocked.
She knew that the old lady was actually talking about herself. Back then, her own flesh and blood were folded in the hands of a very poor woman, and the couple finally turned against each other.
Women's war, meeting on a narrow road, is the most jealous.
Ming Lan sighed in her heart: She don't want to be fish-eye.
