The cannon fodder original wife's bad story

Chapter 288

The room was filled with ladies dressed in gorgeous clothes, talking animatedly.

Many of them have hidden secrets in their hearts.

Ren Dong came over with a tray. When she heard that the Fourth Young Master was looking for Qin Erlang, she immediately replied, "Earlier, the Second Young Master Qin took Chun Ge back to the Qin Mansion. He said that he needed to change the medicine on his elbow. He will not come again in the evening. He only said that when the young lady competes with the Fourth Young Master, he will send someone to deliver a message that he will come to encourage the young lady."

"He is always enthusiastic."

When they were discussing whether to go to Rongfu Garden or Yanlai Hall, Xiao Du's servant came in and said that the eldest master had made hot tea in the small garden behind Nuanfeng Garden and came to invite Pei An and Xu Lingbai to go with him.

The two said goodbye to their sisters-in-law and went to Nuanfeng Garden.

Mei Qingyu tried to suppress her thoughts, but in the end, she couldn't help herself and followed the tall figure out of the gate.

She was feeling quite sad, but couldn't tell anyone about it. Ever since Pei Shuyu's marriage to her second brother was decided, her mother's marriage had become a matter of worry. Unfortunately, everyone in the Pei family was unhappy, and the legitimate son was already married, so she thought she would be recalled to her hometown to discuss the matter.

Mrs. Mei originally wanted to see if there were any suitable candidates among the sons of the Xiao family for her daughter and niece. However, after the quarrel between the sisters Pei Qiuyu and Pei Shuyu, Pei Shuyu told her mother everything. Mrs. Mei felt regretful and was still wondering whether she should tell Mrs. Min. But she never expected that the master, who was coming back to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, would directly arrange Shuyu's marriage.

"Although Mei's second son is not as good as Dalang, he is also studying hard. Your elder brother from your mother's family is a kind person and is also the governor of a prefecture. Speaking of which, the Xiao family is rich, and it may not be easy for Shuyu to marry into their family. It is better to go to your mother's family and know their background well."

Because the one being engaged was her nephew from her mother's side, Mrs. Mei thought about it and decided that although the Xiao family was not as glorious and popular as the Xiao family, her sister-in-law had a good heart and a simple family, and her daughter's past was indeed much better than the Xiao family's.

With this idea in mind, Mrs. Mei complained less.

"Fortunately, the master still has a heart and cares about you. If you don't come back to discuss it, I would have thought of letting Hua Ge'er take care of it."

Pei Chen waved his hand and disagreed.

"As for your other daughters, even though they were not born in your womb, you are still their mother. Just do as you see fit."

He spent his days traveling around the mountains and rivers, living a life of drunkenness and dreams, and it was rare for him to have time to take care of Pei Shuyu's marriage.

"Although the fifth son of the Xiao family has some talent and learning, he cannot be a good son-in-law. You should stop thinking about it." Now that Pei Shuyu and the second son of the Mei family are engaged, Mrs. Mei does not need to cling to the Xiao family. Therefore, she came to the mansion to discuss with Xiao Yinxiu about going out to watch the dragon boat race on the Dragon Boat Festival. Only then did she have the leisure to visit Mrs. Min and Mrs. Liu.

On the other hand, in Shaohua Garden, everyone was chatting and laughing. Under the advice of Mrs. Min and Mrs. Liu, the unmarried girls of the Xiao family, including Xiao Yinhui, no longer dared to speak carelessly.

I also spoke more carefully.

While chatting and laughing with his first and fourth cousins, Song Guanzhou also noticed a few pretty girls and couldn't help but say, "My cousin from my mother's side will also be coming to the mansion soon, so the sisters can still play together."

After hearing this, everyone became curious.

Especially Xiao Du's family, "I've never heard of Guan Zhou's cousin!"

Song Guanzhou pursed his lips and smiled faintly, "Speaking of which, they are close. This cousin is the biological sister of my cousin Xu Lingbai who just had dinner at Shaohua Garden. Some time ago, she came to Beijing with my cousin from Japan, and then went to her uncle's house. But something happened to her relatives in Cang County, so my cousin had no choice but to hire a carriage to go back with her cousin's aunt from the same clan. I sent a letter to my cousin a few days ago, and he told me about it today."

"So Master Xu has a younger sister?"

The man who was in love with the woman knew it, but Xu Lingbai was very shy in front of the women. Not to mention a few words, even if they were face to face without saying anything, he would often blush and speak incoherently.

Therefore, the female members of the Pei and Xiao families are almost unknown.

Wang Qionglan sighed, "Mr. Xu is already a handsome man, and I think this sister must be beautiful too. I wonder when she can come? It would be best if she can come before the Dragon Boat Festival so that we can meet each other."

Song Guanzhou stroked the hairpin in his hair and pretended that he had never seen Xu Lingqiao.

"My cousin mentioned that we seemed to have seen each other when we were babies, but now that we have grown up, we no longer remember. But my cousin looks like me, and my sisters-in-law are curious, too. I told my cousin to go to the post station outside tomorrow to wait for my cousin and bring her back."

"Looks like you? She must be a rare beauty. When she enters the mansion tomorrow, she must tell us. I want to meet this sister properly."

During this time, Ling Ge'er and Huan Ge'er were also curious and asked many questions. Song Guanzhou did not mind the trouble and explained them one by one, such as where Xu Lingqiao came from and what her relationship with Song Guanzhou was. By the time he finished explaining everything, the lights were already on.

Aunt Chu came in person to take the two boys back home. When they entered the house, Xiao Yinxiu saw that the boys had eaten two meals in one night, and she was angry and amused. She pulled the older one and hugged the younger one. When she asked if they were full, both of them shook their heads.

"When Fourth Aunt heard that we had eaten in Great Aunt's yard, she didn't let us eat much. We only had two bowls of soup and one bowl of egg custard."

Xiao Yinxiu couldn't bear to hear what Song Guanzhou said. She poked Huan Ge'er's forehead with her index finger and tapped it a few times, pretending to be angry and said, "You only remember your fourth aunt, but you thought that mother hasn't eaten yet?" Pei Yuhuan leaned on his mother's arms in a baby voice, "Has mother forgotten? You must eat well, sleep well, and be safe!"

"You...you little mouth."

Pei Yulin called Aunt Chu and said, "Aunt, go get the food. I will eat with you."

Aunt Chu quickly lowered her body and smiled softly, "Don't worry, my two brothers. Although Madam used less, I still ate a little after your persuasion."

Xiao Yinxiu held Ling Ge'er's hand and sighed with a smile, "Come to think of it, why should I be sad for no reason when you two are by my side? Well, what I have, she doesn't have."

The Song family may have difficulty giving birth throughout their lives.

As the two brothers were taken away, the others in Shaohua Garden also wanted to leave. For a while, the host politely tried to keep them, but the guests declined. After a few words, everyone in Shaohua Garden left. After seeing everyone off, Song Guanzhou was very tired.

After Ren Dong helped her walk into the house, she finally had some time to summon the servants from Shao Hua Garden to her side. "Don't mention the matter of the cousin's disappearance anymore. I know you don't drink or cause trouble on weekdays, so just keep it to yourself. When Zhuang Gu and Lian Hua see the cousin tomorrow, they have to pretend that they have never seen her, understand?"

Everyone agreed.

"A woman's reputation is very important. I won't tell you about life and death. Just remember what I tell you."
