The Rose of the Red Chamber

Chapter 176

Seeing Zhao Xiuning hesitate, Tanchun couldn't help wondering, "What's wrong with their girl?"

"...I heard that he is extremely domineering and ruthless. At the age of three, he pushed the younger brother born of his concubine into the lotus pond. At the age of four, he ordered the girl who served him to be killed with a cane. It was even worse at the age of five. He overthrew the stepmother, and let the stepmother leave a formed boy, and when he was six years old..., when he was seven years old..."

Tanchun was stunned when he heard this, and his mouth opened wide unconsciously, "According to what you mean, this girl has to do something every year to stop? This girl is like this, and she still wants to marry into our family, it's me Father has enmity with the eldest princess's family, or you did not practice morality when you went out, and you hurt someone to death, so you want to blame such a girl on our family and take revenge on the spot?"

As soon as Zhao Xiuning heard Tan Chun's words, she reached out and patted her on the arm, "How do you talk, kid? Are you looking for a fight?"

Tanchun couldn't react in time, and just happened to be hit by Zhao Xiuning, and subconsciously shrank back, "Mom, what are you doing, you hit someone just because you say something?" The choice of wife here was not provided by her, As for angering her?

No, it's not anger, it's anger.

She is now the Liujiang clan, the Liujiang clan, not just anyone can beat her, okay?

Bah, these words sound like someone beat her before.

Tanchun originally wanted to ask her if he was her own, but once he said this, his mother would definitely think of those years when he was forced to part.

So Tanchun had no choice but to show her sharp teeth, expressing her extreme dissatisfaction and protest against Zhao Xiuning's profiteering behavior.

"You still have the nerve to ask me, how can you be so rude when your child goes to the house for two days without a fight?" Zhao Xiuning thought of her girl's temperament, and she was also very angry and funny.

Girls are more naughty than sons.

Just after returning to Jiang's house, Tanchun found that Zhao Xiuning was very polite to her. Although it was not obvious on the surface, Tanchun could feel it.But if you think about it carefully, you can understand.Although they are mother and daughter, after all, they haven't seen each other for more than ten years, so it's normal to be a little polite and alienated.In order to make Zhao Xiuning less unfamiliar with her faster, Tanchun tried his best, and then accidentally exposed the deepest side of himself.

But that's exactly what happened, the relationship between the two of them quickly changed from being polite and indifferent to being a jerk.

Tanchun turned his head, contemptuous of his mother's inability to count, "Mom, the last time you were so unreasonable and said you could do it, but it was four days ago." When Tanchun said this, he stretched out his hand and gestured Got a four. "I usually ask you to eat more tofu nao, but you don't take it seriously. I happened to have someone buy a batch of walnuts, and I will send them to you when I get back. I heard that those are good for memory."

While talking, he also said, "An elderly person has a bad memory and a bad temper. There is really nothing I can do about you." ' look.

Seeing Zhao Xiuning, her hands were itchy and she wanted to give Tanchun another slap. Tanchun hid to the side, and smiled so proudly, "I didn't hit it!"

"..." Zhao Xiuning was angry.

......

After the two girls had a good joke, it was time for lunch.

Because the Jiangliu family were close, they talked for a long time before it was time for lunch.

Hearing that people came to report that the lunch was ready and asked where it was placed, Jiang Xingyuan only asked his wife and said no more.

The servant entered the Nuan Pavilion and asked about the matter.Zhao Xiuning didn't even think about letting people put the dinner table in the main room according to the old rules.

He glared at Pippi's girl, let's put this topic aside for now, it's serious to treat his son-in-law well.

Marrying a girl like his own to marry him is also unkind in their family...

When the table was set up in the main room, Zhao Xiuning didn't bother to talk to her own girl, who was a scumbag, and directly called Liu Liu to get up and go out to greet the outsiders to come back to the banquet.

The family is still sitting around the big round table as before Tanchun got married.

But this time the seating of the family members has changed again.

From the top, they are Jiang Xingyuan, Zhao Xiuning, Tanchun, Liu Xianglian, the four sons of the Jiang family, Zhao Huan, Liu Liu, and Zhao Guoji.

For a lunch, the whole family ate very lively.Zhao Xiuning and Liu Liu took Tanchun to eat for a while and were full, so they left the table and let the men continue to eat and drink.

And this meal took almost two hours.

After eating, Zhao Xiuning and Liu Liu went back to take a lunch break, Tanchun looked around, and took Sixi back to the small courtyard in front of the pavilion.

My mother said that if I live in Chang'an for one day, I will keep this yard for myself for one day.

Tanchun agrees, after all, she will be here every day in the future, so she can't go back to Liu's house for a nap after lunch.

If that's the case, she might not be too lazy to come over for dinner.

Don't people live for three meals a day?No meal is complete without a meal.

(￣_, ￣)

Tanchun took a very comfortable nap, and Liu Xianglian also had a very good meal of wine.

So the couple decided to show mercy and not have dinner at Jiang's house tonight.

Well, the truth is that for today's door-to-door banquet, the men in the family probably have to sleep until the middle of the night. Liu Xianglian seems to be able to drink well, but she doesn't know anything after drinking, she only knows to giggle at her daughter-in-law, and

----Walking around in circles with a mace, and saying nervously while circling, "Hide, hide."

He drank his father and his natal brothers too high, how could Tanchun have the nerve to welcome his mother's gentle touch.

So regardless of the rules and regulations, Tanchun directly supported Liu Xianglian and led the servants back to his home from the back door of Jiang's house.

That night, Liu Xianglian woke up until dawn, and Tanchun slept next to Liu Xianglian after returning home and eating a bowl of chicken noodle soup.

This night, Tanchun may have talked too much during the day, but he had a lot of dreams at night, one dream after another, and another dream after a while.But when he woke up, he didn't remember any of them.

But who could really compare dreams to her?

So when she got up early in the morning, Tanchun still let Liu Xianglian wash and dress in a natural and distasteful manner, and then let Sixi who had been frightened into a quail wait for her to dress up.

There are two kitchens in the Liu family, one is a large dining hall for the family's servants to eat.One is the small kitchen in a row of inverted houses behind the main courtyard.

Of course, the half kitchen in the garden can't be counted here, after all, when it's really used there, most of the staff will be transferred from the small kitchen.

The small kitchen is dedicated to Tanchun and Liu Xianglian.

The kitchen now only has one red case, one white case, and a rough envoy girl and a rough envoy woman.However, because it is dedicated to the food of the two masters, the kitchen is managed by Chanel.

This kitchen is considered the most relaxing job in the mansion. On weekdays, it is only responsible for Tanchun and his wife's breakfast, some soup and snacks, and occasionally a supper.

As for lunch and dinner, most of the time the kitchenette is closed.

After all, the couple usually eat at Jiang's house in the front yard.

On the fourth day of the wedding, Liu Xianglian, who has no marriage leave, will go back to Xishan Daying to clock in and go to work.Tanchun, who was no longer familiar with his family, also packed up his things, and prepared to go back to his mother's house and continue to use small talk to exercise his mother's bearing.

So the young couple went out together after the wife made a few breakfasts on the stove in the small kitchen at home.

One rode a horse, went out, and went straight to the Xishan camp.One took the girls and servants to Jiang's house through the back door.

......

When they arrived at Jiang's house, Jiang's family had just finished their breakfast.

Jiang Xingyuan said with a smile that your mother is in the house, and then went to work in the front office.

After the two young boys from the Jiang family also greeted Tanchun, they chased each other to study in the front yard.

Jiang Xingyuan made a decision to send these two guys to study in a college in Shandong after the fall of this year.

In the past two years, because of this incident and that incident, as well as the country's filial piety, the little brother was delayed at home from going out to study.But this year, the three boys in the family are rushing to take the exam, so they are allowed to stay at home until after Qiu Wei, and they are all dismissed.

Tanchun watched his two little brothers run out of the main courtyard, and when he turned his head, he saw the other two older brothers coming out of the house one after another. He smiled and said to them, "They all talk about the way of learning. One piece at a time, the books that should be read, the things to learn have already been learned, and now they are just reviewing the past. The weather is so good, don't stay in the study all the time, if you become a nerd, you can only go to the Imperial Academy .”

"Is the Hanlin bad?" Non-jinshi do not enter the Hanlin, and non-Hanlin do not enter the cabinet.Entering the Imperial Academy is the highest promotion qualification for an official, why is my sister still full of disgust.

Tanchun heard Boss Jiang's rare and relaxed words, and said with a smile, "It's a place with a bunch of old pedants."

Boss Jiang shook his head and chuckled lightly, "Isn't it just an old pedant who passed the exam after ten years of hard work?"

Tanchun pursed his lips, very indifferent, "So what, knowledge is first-class, but there is no guarantee that character is first-class. It is true that most of the heart is a scholar. .”

Jiang Laoer heard what his sister said, but he also felt disgusted when he heard that kind of thing, "Fortunately, there is no Princess Shang, otherwise it would be disgusting. But the brothers in that family are eating for nothing Is it? My sister has suffered such grievances, and I don’t know how to bring someone to the door.” A group of ruthless people, if his sister is bullied like this, the five brothers will never forgive her bullying people.

Tanchun nodded, "Who says it's not. Well, it's useless to talk too much about other people's affairs. You should go to the front yard and watch those two little ones. Don't let them mess around."

Upon hearing this, the twins complained to Tanchun, and they left the main courtyard together.

Tanchun left the girl outside and entered Zhao Xiuning's main room by himself.

"Why so early? What did you use for breakfast?" Zhao Xiuning, who was sitting in the room listening to his servants report the bill, pointed to the chair beside him when he saw Tanchun come in.

Tanchun made a non-standard salute, and then sat down, "I've used it, but it's just our home-cooked food. Your son-in-law has gone to Xishan, and I have nothing to do, so I just came over." The cook is still Jiang As a dowry, the food is naturally very familiar and easy to eat.

When Zhao Xiuning heard this, she gave her an annoyed look, "You are also the master of the house, and there are no dozens of family affairs that can be stopped every day, so why do you say that there is nothing wrong?"

"In our place, just me and him, how many things can we do? The clothes are all newly made, and there is not much business in the kitchen, and the other servants have their own rules, neither New Year nor holiday , I haven’t heard of anyone’s birthday, and another one, no one has sent any invitations, I just want to find something to do, so I have to find it.”

It wasn't the first day she got involved in the Liu family's housework, and she was also a Zhaidou, a graduate of Gongdou's advanced study class, and she really didn't take such an idea of ​​the Liu family's work seriously.

There are fewer people, and things are even more pitiful.

The work that I started three years ago, there is really nothing to do now.

"Mom is too willing to do it by herself. There are some things that you don't want to let go after the brothers are married. How tiring it is. What things are set aside, follow the rules, and if they are broken, whoever does it will be punished." , plus the responsibility of sitting continuously, don’t worry.”

Taking a glance at her own daughter, Zhao Xiuning said angrily, "If I don't find something for myself to do, I will still be like you, going back to my mother's house every day."

Just about to have a few more words with Zhao Xiuning, Liu Liu who had breakfast in his courtyard also came over.

What the three women are most concerned about now is the autumn of the three boys and the marriage of Boss Jiang.

With more sons, marriage has become the most important thing for all the mothers.

When the son married his wife, he began to worry about the disharmony between the brothers and when the grandson would be born.

......

"Speaking of which, Mom, when did younger brothers become so popular?" Could it be that this is the spring of the grassroots family?

"..." Zhao Xiuning was quite happy at first, but when she heard this, she was immediately choked by her own girl.

The author has something to say: I seem to have given up the cat owner, er, to put it simply, I seem to have made the cat owner too fat.

Miao Dabao came home at the end of April. The cat is less than two months old, but the cat weighs exactly two catties.

Two catties, one kilogram.

I'm really worried that Miao Dabao will grow up in the future, is he too stalwart?
