Chapter 372: Rongguo Gong's Family
Rongguo Mansion, Zhang Fu's anxious expression turned around, rubbing his hands and waiting for news, his brows furrowed. Xu Hao, who came in a hurry, waved his hand and let Xiangyu and the others go directly into the house to help, with the same anxious face, and strode to Rongguo Gong Zhang Yu's side.
The old general Zhang Yu raised his hand and pointed to the room, no one at this pass had the heart to speak politely.
Heart-rending cries rang out from the room, and after half an hour, only the clear croaking of babies could be heard, which made the people who had been waiting outside smile for a long time.
The midwife took the first step out of the thick curtain and said with a smile: "Congratulations to a young lady." ”
Xu Hao, who breathed a heavy sigh of relief and smiled, noticed that when Zhang Yu Jimu Shi heard that it was his daughter, he subconsciously frowned, since ancient times, people have been patriarchal, and Xu Hao is too lazy to care.
Zhang Yu's thirteen-year-old second son Zhang Hui and ten-year-old Zhang Yu pouted slightly, because they and their brother Zhang Fu are not the same mother, Zhang Fu is in his twenties this year, and there is a huge age difference between them, so the relationship between the brothers is very average.
However, Zhang Xin has always been with Zhang Fu, who has been breathing a sigh of relief, and the relationship between the two brothers is very deep, and Zhang Xin and Xu Hao are friends. Zhang Yu said with great relief: "The girl is good, the girl is good." ”
Xu Hao was worried about the eldest sister, and was about to enter the house when he raised his feet, but the midwife quickly stretched out her hand to stop her, and her aunt Huang said, "Men can't go in." ”
"Get out!" Xu Hao didn't even look at them, and directly lifted the curtain and entered the house.
Facing the women's astonishment and dissatisfaction, Zhang Yu said helplessly: "You all go to receive guests." Xu Hao, don't talk about you, the old man can't control him. ”
Zhang Fu came over and said with a smile: "Auntie, don't be surprised. "Humph!" Huang turned around and left unhappily, and Zhang Hui and Zhang Xuan also slipped out of the city to play when they saw this.
Xiangyu bathed the baby gently in the house, and put it on the child with a goose yellow jacket, Xu Hao didn't go to hold the child, didn't care about the blood stains on the ground, and concentrated on wiping the sweat on the eldest sister's face with a silk scarf.
Xu Qinglian looked pleased, satisfied and let her younger brother serve her carefully, turned her head and stared at her infant daughter tiredly, and said with a smile: "I gave birth to a girl." You can't get married now. ”
"It doesn't matter." Xu Hao got up and carefully picked up the baby. Looking at the innocent, ugly and wrinkled little face, he smiled: "If my son has to marry a beautiful cousin, then I have no objection." ”
Xu Qinglian suddenly said cautiously: "Even if it's an ugly girl." You and your father and son are not allowed to pick and choose the fat and the thin. The marriage was decided. ”
Xu Hao smiled: "Sister, you were the biggest pregnant for a while. No one can afford to mess with you, say what is what, but now the children have been born. It's my wife's turn to be the biggest. ”
Xiangyu and the maids and daughters-in-law all gathered around and stretched out their hands to tease the little baby, and they all laughed when they heard the noise between the sisters and brothers.
Xu Hao saw that the eldest sister was tired, so he said softly: "Let's rest, everyone has a red envelope of twenty taels of treasure money, hard work everyone." ”
At the same time, the female dependents of the Xu family sitting in the Zhangjiahua Hall received the news that the mother and daughter were safe, and the relatives of the Zhang family came forward to congratulate them, and it was very lively for a while.
Shi said to Xiao Shi in private: "This second room is fierce and frivolous, although I am worried and always guard against her, but I am not at ease." I just hope that Qinglian will take care of the family affairs as soon as possible after the confinement, only Qinglian can stop her in the family, and don't come out for some reason during this period, it will not be a problem. ”
Xiao Shi knows that Shi is the cousin of the late old lady, married to the Zhang family very early, and is also from a well-known family in the north, but Shi is as weak and sick as the old lady, and he is powerless to run the family.
Mu Ningxue was far away from the crowd and was protected by the maids, Xiao Shi did not allow her to go in to visit, at this moment she was worried about the eldest sister, her face was quiet, and she heard her mother-in-law say: "In this case, why don't you go back to your mother's house?" ”
Shi smiled bitterly: "It's more and more unbearable, her parents are very confused, don't make trouble and wonder geniuses." ”
As he was talking, he heard someone arguing in the inner hall, Shi Shi quickly stood up and wanted to go in to see, Zhang Xin came out and said, "Mrs., don't care about her, I'm angry, my mother and aunt are inside to persuade and adjust the arrangement." ”
Shi Shi smiled bitterly at Xiao Shi and Mu Ningxue and the others and sighed, "It's also angry when you go, it's just that you can't see it and don't worry about it." ”
These words made Wang Xuanqing and Yuan both curious, and the two walked to the middle hall together, only to see Huang kicking his feet on the ground, slapping his hands on the table, and scolding: "This group of beasts bullied me so that I can't get on the stage, no wonder even the servants ignore me, how can I see that I am a prostitute?" Just so vigilant that you can't even speak? ”
Wang Xuanqing and Yuan were confused when they heard this, and they didn't understand it at all, so they asked: "Which one deceived my aunt, which one ignored you, and which one was wary of you?" Be clear, too. ”
The relatives of the Zhang family knew the temper of the Huang family, and they all hid far away at this time, it turned out that Zhang Yu's old husband and young wife and Huang's maiden family were subordinates who had followed him for many years, and his father Huang Hu was a famous reckless man in Beiping, and he had saved Zhang Yu's life many times, so Zhang Yu had always connived at the Huang family, and the Zhang family had to endure it everywhere.
Huang was born in the market, and when he was a child, he scolded the poor idlers in the neighborhood, and he didn't care about the dignity of the country's family, and said: "A group of evil-lewd-women and prodigal hooves, which one won't come to bully me?" Now I have to go to the neighborhood to buy things by myself. ”
Yuan said with a smile: "Let's make it clear, it's not too late to scold." Today is a day of great joy, so why swear? ”
Huang Shi put a hundred dollars in his hand on the ground and said: "I want to buy some incense powder today, give him the dog mongrel in Changxing, and ask him to buy it. ”
Wang Xuanqing said: "What's so difficult about this? Turning to the housekeeper of the Zhang family, he instructed: "Go and tell the housekeeper at the door, beat that little guy with twenty sticks, and drive him home directly." ”
The relationship between the Zhang family and the Xu family is not ordinary, in the ten months that Xu Qinglian was pregnant, the three of the Xu family concubines came over to help the eldest sister take care of the housework, so the Zhang family knew it up and down, and the woman in charge did not dare to slack off. I answered and hurried away.
Unexpectedly, not long after he went out, Changxing followed the woman to the flower hall, knelt under the stone steps and said: "The little one has a relationship, and when he understands his grandmother, he is willing to be beaten with a hundred sticks." ”
Huang immediately pointed at him and shouted: "Don't beg for death, what kind of affection, get out of the way." ”
Yuan said: "Auntie is too anxious, it's not too late to fight after listening to him." Wang Xuanqing also said: "You say." ”
Changxing glanced at Aunt Huang, who was staring at him viciously, and said regardless of it: "The little one started last night and the fourth watch, and the housekeeper sent me to the Xu Mansion to inform the young lady that she was about to give birth. And I went and called for a midwife. Busy in the middle of the night. This morning, I was so thirsty that I took a bowl to the kitchen to make a bowl of tea. I didn't want to be bad, so I touched it. ”
Before he could say a word, Huang jumped up in a hurry and shouted, "You dog bastard." Stinky bunny. Spread your mother's panic. ”
Seeing this, Yuan frowned and said, "Making tea is not a lie. Listen to what he said. ”
Wang Xuanqing was anxious and asked directly, "What did you touch?" Say it. ”
Changxing said: "I met my aunt with a hundred dollars in her hand and asked me to buy incense powder." ”
Wang Xuanqing paused angrily and funny: "Then you can buy it." Why do you spend so much talking? ”
"The little one is to reach out to take the money, but who knows that my aunt didn't hand over the money, but fell into the palm of my hand and scratched it a few times." Zhang Xing lowered his head after speaking, his face flushed slightly, "Mrs. has instructed, the family boys in the house, who dares to talk to my aunt, I was beaten half to death, and immediately kicked out, my aunt can't hurt me." At that time, I was so scared that the little one didn't make any tea, so I ran out, and my aunt was there to call me back and come back, and the little one shouldn't be her. It's just that I'm afraid that my wife will be beaten and scolded if she knows the truth, and it's not that the small ones refuse to buy it. ”
Huang's angry facial features were distorted, and he ran to the door and spat at him in the face, shouting, "Did you scratch my hand and accuse me of scratching you?" Chew your fucking rotten tongue. ”
Yuan looked at this kid at a young age, about eighteen or nineteen years old, and he was still handsome and white, and when he heard the bastards between men and women, he was a little uncomfortable, and hurriedly turned around and retreated, and the maids also returned with red faces.
Wang Xuanqing frowned, squatted down and picked up the copper coins scattered all over the place, threw them at Changxing's side, and scolded: "Bastard, don't talk about it, I'll spare you this time, go buy incense powder." ”
Changxing was very clever, and quickly picked up the money and got up to leave, not wanting the Huang family to be unforgiving, he rushed over and slapped him seven or eight times in the face, and the nosebleed also came out, robbed him of the money in his hand, and scolded: "I don't want you to buy this dog thing." ”
Changxing covered his nose and ran away, Wang Xuanqing frowned and said: "It's not that you are a junior, auntie, there are girls and mothers in your room, who dares to disobey what to buy?" Can you run to the stove and make these unclean famines? Saying that, he turned around and went inside, Huang sneered and crossed his hands on his hips, stood there and shouted and scolded for a while, and when he saw that no one paid attention to her, he felt bored and went into the room.
Shi sighed and said to Xiao Shi: "You have seen it, sooner or later, this wind will have to be ruined by her." ”
Xiao Shi smiled bitterly and persuaded: "It's just a matter of being more vigilant in the future, otherwise what else can I do?" Unless it is the grandfather of the country who speaks. ”
At this time, the princes and uncles came to congratulate each other, and brought in an endless stream of many gifts, etc., and the Zhang family was busy entertaining people and was busy all day.
Because Xu Qinglian was in confinement, the Xu family was not easy to disturb the house, so they left and returned home after eating a table of wine.
On the way, Mu Ningxue didn't say anything about the Huang family, for fear that her husband would overstep her bounds, after all, it was the Zhang family's housework, so they snuggled up to each other and talked about other topics.
Qianshoutang, Xiao and others reported the good news to the old lady, at this time Xu Hai led the new daughter-in-law Zhong Kegu to come in to offer tea, although she was born in a small family in Jinling, but she was a very smart and handsome little lady, the old lady and the Xiao family are very fond of her, but the Wang family has always not been waiting to see the concubine, and now he is not waiting to see the concubine's daughter-in-law.
After the new daughter-in-law had saluted, the old lady left the young couple to eat, and instructed Xu Hai to take the new daughter-in-law to the garden to relax, and said with pity: "Have fun with your sisters-in-law and sisters, the poor child is only eleven or twelve years old." When we first got married, our family was ashamed, how could we not panic? In the future, I will move around a lot, and after a long time, I will become familiar with my family. ”
Xu Haihan laughed, and led the newlywed Yan'er's wife to the garden, and it happened that everyone was eating tea and talking in the Linxia Pavilion.
Momiji smiled and looked at her sister-in-law, who was a few years younger than herself, and said with a smile: "My sister-in-law's honorific name is Kegu, and I don't know if it's because I heard it at first glance, so I called it and twisted my mouth." It's better to change the Gu character to a human character, I don't know how to make it? (To be continued......)
