Chapter 78 See Er Laohuo Lake Complaint(2/2)
The carriage stopped at the second door, and the one who came to greet them was Madam Shen, the old lady next to Mrs. Song. When Song Sui's family got out of the car, she smiled and greeted her, "I wish the third master, the third lady, the third master, the fourth girl, the seventh girl, the fifth girl, the eighth girl, the tenth girl, the third lady, the third lady, the third lady, the third lady, the third girl, the fourth girl, the seventh girl, the fifth girl, the tenth girl."
"I haven't seen each other for several years, and my mother Shen's mouth is still so smooth. After saying such a long list of words, she doesn't even breathe." Ji Yun said with a smile.
"The third wife praises me, I am a child." Madam Shen smiled and held Ji Yun's arm, "The old wife helps the third wife in to pay tribute to the old lady."
"It's time for Mother Shen." Ji Yun smiled politely and stuffed a purse into Madam Shen's hand.
As soon as Madam Chen weighed her weight, her smile on her face became stronger and her attitude became more attentive.
Song Ruoxi, who was following behind, was already dizzy by the long list of greetings from Madam Chen. He thought that he would pay homage to so many people later, and suddenly felt weak all over.
The big house of the second house of the Song family is divided into seven courtyards. Old Master Song is quite elegant and named after the Six Gentlemen. The two elders of the Song family and several concubines live in Songheyuan in the middle. The eldest house lives in Lanpuyuan, the second house is Meisuiyuan, the fourth house lives in Baixianyuan, and the Zhuyinyuan used to live in three bedrooms. After Song Sui was released, it was empty. Lingboyuan is a living courtyard. The servants live in the courtyard to the north, so it is simply called the North Courtyard.
Song Ruoxi followed behind, followed several circles, passed through a hanging flower gate, and arrived at Songheyuan. After entering the courtyard gate, he passed through the corridor on the left, and walked past a hanging flower gate, and passed through the hall to the main courtyard of Songheyuan.
"The old man and the old lady are mindful, saying it's time, why is the third master not here yet? As soon as he finished speaking, the third master and the third wife entered the door!" Walking into the gate of the main courtyard, Lu Jiuniang, another old lady next to Mrs. Song, came up with a haha.
Song Sui pulled the corner of his mouth and did not answer.
A girl's silver bell-like laughter came from the hall. Song Ruoxi couldn't tell who it was. Song Ruojuan was still young when he left Beijing and had a vague impression of his family. A cold light of jealousy flashed in Song Ruohu's eyes. Unexpectedly, Song Ruojie was still so popular with the old lady. She was also a concubine. Why could she get the old lady like it? Song Ruochi's face turned slightly pale and he shivered.
The group walked in and bypassed the screen with the six-fan embroidered Six Gentlemen Pictures. Before Song Ruoxi could see who was sitting in the hall clearly, he was dazzled by the jewelry. He blinked his eyes and felt a little adapted.
On the two armchairs in the hall were sitting a dark blue brocade robe, an old man with a white hair and a black long dress with a dark blue gown, a round bun, a light brown bamboo leaves inlaid with jade forehead and a jade gold hairpin. On the chairs at the bottom were three women and a few dressed girls, dressed in colorful clothes, and a group of maids serving them.
According to the rules, Song Sui and Ji Yun first bowed forward, then Song Lian brothers, then Song Ruohu sisters, and finally four concubines. However, when it was the turn of Song Ruohu sisters to bow down and kowtow, Song Ruohu knelt down and kowtowed instead of paying respects, but complained, "Grandfather and grandmother, please be the master of the granddaughter!"
Everyone in the room was startled!
Ji Yun really didn't expect Song Ruohu to be so bold. He dared to attack as soon as he entered the door. His face became gloomy and looked at Aunt Liu. Seeing her smug smile, her eyes were slightly stern, and she smiled coldly, something that was not a matter of life or death.
Old Mrs. Song squinted her eyes slightly, worried that she would not find anything to come to the third room to save face. The third roommate brought the handle to her door. Of course, she had to make good use of it. Without waiting for Old Mr. Song to speak, she spoke first: "This is the girl in the lake! What's wrong? Tell me, my grandfather and grandmother will make the decision with you."
Song Ruohu was happy, and his aunt was indeed right. The old lady really didn't like her wife. Her marriage would definitely be relieved. He kowtowed and said, "Grandfather and grandmother, the wife thought that her granddaughter had grown older and had not allowed a marriage, which hindered the seventh sister from looking for someone. Before returning to Beijing, she acted hastily and betrothed her granddaughter's lifelong life to a Bai Ding, the son of a farmer. Although her granddaughter is mediocre and knowledgeable, her granddaughter is the daughter of the Song family. How can she let others do this casually? She begs her grandfather and grandmother to terminate this marriage for her granddaughter and allow others to do it."
"Last brother, what's going on?" Although Mr. Song was a little annoyed that Song Ruohu was disturbing his excitement, he was still willing to take the opportunity to hit Song Sui, so as not to think that the kid would not take him seriously with the Ji family.
"When I go back to my father, Hu'er's marriage is a son's marriage. The Cai family is a famous family in Guangling Mansion. The son is the eldest son of Hu'er. This son is outstanding in his talent and extraordinary appearance. The son thinks that Hu'er is a good match for him. In order to avoid the fact that he is on the list of sons-in-law to be recruited next spring, he will settle the marriage before his son returns to Beijing." Although Song Ruohu puts the blame on Ji Yun, and has never mentioned Song Sui at all. She thought that Song Sui would not be angry with her in this way, but she did not expect that since Song Sui had agreed to this marriage, there was no reason to change. Even if this marriage was wrong, Song Sui would not admit it and force her to get married.
"I heard you say that, this is a good marriage. But why doesn't the girl in Hu want to? She is still so wronged?" asked Old Mrs. Song.
"When I say my mother, Hu'er is young and ungrateful. She is urging her to others, so she will say these rude words. My daughter-in-law is ashamed and will definitely discipline her after taking Hu'er back." Ji Yun lowered her head and admitted her mistake.
Old Mrs. Song was about to speak, but she was wearing a cotton robe with a light green embroidered flower satin sitting on the rose chair on the left. Her face was slightly fat and she held her heart bun back. The middle-aged woman who was seventy-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sixth-sex-sex, she was snatched by her parents’ orders. Even if it was not good, she had to obey. How could she say that she would terminate the engagement and give others something else? When did the Song family raise such a corrupt daughter? Third brother and sister, you should discipline her well. If you get married and be sent back, the Song family would not be able to lose this face."
Ji Yun said humbly: "What my sister-in-law said is that I will definitely discipline me strictly in the future and will never let Hu'er do something that will ruin the family style and lose the face of the Song family."
Old Mrs. Song glared at Xiao Jiang fiercely. She couldn't speak, so she shut up. After she was told like this, she couldn't take the opportunity to lose face from the third room. She picked up the teacup and poured half a cup before she could suppress her anger.
Xiao Jiang was a little confused by the old lady Song, who was a aunt and mother-in-law. She said nothing wrong, why did she glar about her?
"Hu girl, your parents' marriage is well made. You can embroider the dowry at home and wait for the Cai family to come to marry you. You are not allowed to make trouble anymore." Old Master Song said majesticly.
"Old Master..." Aunt Liu wanted to speak for her daughter, but she stole her body, but she was stepping on her skirt by Aunt Xu and fell to the ground face down, and she couldn't speak immediately.
Song Ruohu didn't care about Aunt Liu at this time and said anxiously: "Grandfather, my granddaughter doesn't want to do this marriage. My granddaughter will never marry Bai Ding. If you want to marry, you have to marry..."
Song Ruoxi stuffed the silk parfait in his hand into Song Ruohu's mouth with great force, and said anxiously: "Fourth sister has worked hard all the way, talk nonsense here, come and help her go back to her room to rest."
Xiangxiu and Mint walked out quickly, raised Song Ruohu and walked out. Song Sui was very satisfied that Song Ruoxi could make a decision immediately, blocked Song Ruohu's mouth, and stopped her from saying embarrassing words.
A smile flashed in Ji Yun's eyes. Her daughter was like a good person.
"Ahem..." Song Ruohu was about to pull out the silk squid stuffed in his mouth, but his hands were blocked and unable to move. He wanted to cough out, but he couldn't cough out, so he was forcibly carried out of Songheyuan. Two mothers had already dragged Aunt Liu down.
"If my granddaughter is rude, please forgive me for your grandfather and grandmother." Song Ruoxi lowered his head and said.
Old Master Song squinted his eyes, stroked his beard, and asked, "Are you a Xi girl?"
"Xi girl greets her grandfather, and pays her grandmother a blessing, and grandmother a blessing." Song Ruoxi knelt down and kowtowed.
Song Ruochi and Song Ruojuan also knelt down and greeted each other.
Old Master Song seemed very happy to look at his granddaughter who was wearing three hairpins, rings, skirts and jackets, and laughed twice, "Good kids, all of them are up."
Old Mrs. Song frowned and looked at Song Ruoxi with squinted eyes. Didn’t she say that she had lived in the temple for five years, so why was the etiquette correct at all?
Sister Song Ruoxi agreed, stood up and retreated aside.
The three concubines came forward to pay their respects and retreated.
Song Lian also led his younger brothers and sisters to pay tribute to his elder aunt Xiao Jiang, second aunt Ouyang, fourth aunt Wen, and met all the sisters and sisters.
Song Ruoxi looked at them carefully. Ouyang wore a purple embroidered peony silver satin cotton jacket, with a pointed face and a huge eyes, spinning, revealing a sense of shrewdness. Wen's face was beautiful, wearing a light brown flower-spreading croaker, a green horse-faced skirt, a tilted bun, and a hanging bead-shaped swaying. His eyes were so light that they could not see a trace of their spirit, giving people a feeling of indifference.
The eldest girl is married, and the fifth girl is recuperating in the room. In the hall are the second girl Song Ruojie, the third girl Song Ruoying, the sixth girl Song Ruoyan, the ninth girl Song Ruohan and the eleventh girl Song Ruoqing. The girls have their own characteristics, and Song Ruoyan is the most beautiful.
After a round of gifts, Song Ruoxi was exhausted. He had known the names of all the sisters for a long time, but before they met, they finally finished the gifts and wanted to find a chair to sit and rest, but found that there were too many people in the hall and there were not enough chairs to sit, so they had to pursed their mouths and stood beside Ji Yun.
In front of so many female relatives, Old Master Song was not convenient for him to ask Song Sui about his job. He asked about the situation on the way and said with a smile: "The third brother follows me to the study and sit in the study. Lian'er, you accompany your mother, your brother and sister to Zhuyinyuan. After the placement is completed, we will come here later."
Ji Yun and others agreed and retreated.
The mistress of the family, Xiao Jiang, did not follow him and sent him to ask Liu Zheng's family to speak, "Third wife, the third wife's incident of returning to Beijing to report his work was too sudden. Zhuyinyuan didn't have time to clean up. It was the New Year and the festival again, and people were coming and going, so I was too busy. The eldest wife said that the third wife would live first and then clean up after the New Year."
"I dare not bother the eldest wife when I clean up the matter. The people from our third room will do it." Ji Yun smiled coldly and returned to Zhuyinyuan with her children and aunts.
Liu Zheng tilted his mouth disdainfully, twisted his fat buttocks into the room and replied to Xiao Jiang.
