Reborn on the day of marriage! After the marriage exchange, the elder sister went crazy

Li Jinglan’s aunt?

Who is Li Jinglan's aunt?

How come I have never heard that Li Jinglan’s aunt works in Duke Xu’s Mansion?

Everyone looked at each other.

The old Duke's wife first looked at the Duke's wife.

The Duke's wife shook her head very obscurely.

Li Jinglan took in everyone's expressions and smiled: "I didn't make it clear. I was talking about Aunt Xianzhi."

"When we were in Nanli County, Magistrate Xu and Aunt Xianzhi helped us a lot. Bozhou was framed several times, but fortunately Magistrate Xu rescued him, and that's when he was safe."

"My aunt and Aunt Xianzhi are close friends, so I just followed my aunt and called her Aunt."

As soon as Li Jinglan finished speaking, the old Duke's wife suddenly realized.

It turned out to be Xu Feng, the second son of the second family.

Unexpectedly, Xu Feng quietly became friends with Lu Bozhou when they were poor.

The old Duke's wife was delighted.

The old Duke's wife has experienced two dynasties. She is not an ordinary person and knows what is going on in the court.

Seeing that Lu Bozhou was on track to replace the crown prince and enter the Eastern Palace, she was worrying about how to make friends with Li Jinglan.

Now that Xu Feng had placed such a ladder to the sky, it would be really stupid if she didn't know how to step up.

He quickly gestured to the Duke's wife to send someone to look for him, and then smiled and talked to Li Jinglan: "No wonder, this is really a flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple. It turns out that they are really a family."

"Yes, we are a family." Li Jinglan said, and bowed to Princess Ningguo, "Hello, big sister."

Princess Ningguo looked serious and bowed slightly, "Hello, sister-in-law."

Princess Ningguo's sister-in-law, Princess Rongmin, came forward and greeted Li Jinglan in a very intimate manner.

Li Jinglan is not the kind of person who will give you a warm welcome if you give me the cold shoulder.

Since Princess Ningguo didn't want to talk to her, she only talked and joked with the old Duke's wife.

"I was kidnapped last year, and it was thanks to the Duke's Mansion that they sent people to look for me. I've always remembered this favor." Li Jinglan expressed her gratitude to the old Duke's wife affectionately.

When the old Duke heard Li Jinglan mention the friendship of helping each other last year, he laughed and said, "It's not worth mentioning. I hope you are safe and sound."

"I will never forget your kindness in saving me." Li Jinglan bowed deeply to the old Duke's wife again.

The old Duke's wife was so frightened that she hurriedly called for help, "You are pregnant, you can't bow again. Come, come, come, sit next to me."

The old Duke's wife took Li Jinglan's hand and asked, "How many months have you been pregnant? How is your pregnancy going? Do you like sweet or sour food?"

Li Jinglan answered them one by one.

at this time.

Xu Xianzhi sat in the flower hall in the courtyard, coughing lightly while talking to his daughter Qingdai.

All of Xu Xianzhi's children are now adults.

Qing Dai is the daughter of Xu Feng's concubine and is ten years old this year.

Very beautiful.

"…A few days ago, my eighth sister said she wanted to form a poetry club and originally invited me to join. But today, they said I was too young and wouldn't let me go."

Qingdai pouted her lips, looking very lost.

The Xu family is large and prosperous, and the family has not been divided.

Several families live in one yard.

With more people, there are naturally more children.

There are more than 30 children in Duke Xu’s mansion.

They are all kept in the yard of the old Duke's wife.

Hearing that his daughter was being ostracized by others, Xu Xianzhi coughed a few times and then sighed.

Don't think that Xu Feng is the county magistrate of Nanli County, which is a real job.

But for the Xu family, this county magistrate was not taken seriously at all.

When Xu Feng went to Nanli County to take up the post, Xu Xianzhi also followed Xu Jingchen's path.

Xu Jingchen got the position of county magistrate only after asking the King of Jin for help.

Xu Xianzhi's father is Xu Jingnian, the eldest son of the Xu family. Xu Jingnian died in battle to defend the imperial city nineteen years ago.

After his death in battle, the imperial court gave him some gold, silver and material rewards, and appointed all the sons of the Xu family as generals, but did not promote them to any title.

Xu Jingnian had no sons, only one daughter, Xu Xianzhi.

Although every member of the Xu family is a general now, for the Xu family, whose children and grandchildren are mostly generals and have the hereditary title of duke, general is nothing.

Just like people outside who respect clothes first and then people, the Xu family attaches great importance to title.

The Xu family likes people who serve in the military and earn titles through military merit.

Therefore, Xu Feng and Xu Xianzhi were somewhat marginalized in the Xu family.

Even their children were ostracized.

As the mother and daughter were talking, Xu Xianzhi's sister-in-law Xing walked in from outside.

"Oh, why are you at home? Why didn't you go to the door to greet Madam Li?" As soon as Xing came in, she exaggeratedly described what happened at the door.

"The ancestor was also at the Chuihua Gate to welcome us. It was a grand ceremony."

When Xing said this, she covered her lips and smiled: "It's a pity that you didn't go."

What if I go to greet them at the door?

Didn’t you still not get the chance to speak in the main hall?

Xu Xianzhi said calmly, "I caught a cold, and I'm afraid that Madam Li will be sick."

Li Jinglan is pregnant now, and she doesn't dare to get close to Li Jinglan because she has a cold.

If something goes wrong, it will harm both Li Jinglan and the Xu family.

Xing wiped the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief: "I don't know if Madam Li will have dinner at home. I heard that the old ancestor has already prepared it."

Xu Xianzhi smiled slightly: "Our family married a princess and a county lady, so we have seen the world. Our ancestors will definitely arrange everything properly."

Xing's face froze.

Everyone in the Xu family has seen the world, so she is the only one who hasn't?

Thinking that Xu Xianzhi's family was still the Earl of Fenyong, Xing curled her lips.

"I heard that you helped Lu Bozhou in Nanli County. How come Lu Bozhou hasn't visited you once since he came to Beijing?"

"Oh, there's more!" Xing said with a look of shock, "I remember now, Madam Li disappeared last year, and our family sent hundreds of servants to help look for her."

"Oh, the human heart..." Xing said while covering her mouth with a handkerchief, with an expression as if you had put your warm face in front of someone else's cold butt.

Xu Xianzhi's expression turned cold, "Sister-in-law, be careful with your words! Don't forget what Lu Xiuzhuan's current status is? How can you mention his name so easily?"

Although Lu Bozhou's identity was acknowledged at the three-court trial, the Prince of Jin's Mansion did not hold a ceremony to recognize the relative.

Therefore, Lu Bozhou did not change his surname nor did he return to live in the Prince of Jin's Mansion.

But no matter whether Lu Bozhou changed his surname or not and what his status was, calling Lu Bozhou by his first name was disrespectful and contemptuous.

Xing just spoke too hastily, but now that she has thought it through, she is also afraid.

She stood up and said, "Forget it. I have something else to do in the hospital. I won't talk to you for now."

After that, he left in a hurry.

Xu Xianzhi snorted, then covered his lips with a handkerchief and coughed a few times.

"Madam, are you okay?" Qingdai brought a cup of tea with concern.

"It's okay." Xu Xianzhi took a sip of tea.

When Xing walked to the door, she saw the nanny beside the Duke's wife and hurriedly stepped forward to greet her, "Where are you going, nanny?"

"Is Second Madam Feng here? Madam asked her to go to the main hall to talk." The nanny bowed with a smile.

There are two Duke's wives in the Duke's Mansion, one is the old Duke's wife and the other is the Duke's wife.

Generally speaking, when someone calls someone Madam, they are referring to the wife of the Duke.

Those who call "ancestor" are all the wives of the old dukes.

The Duke's wife was looking for Xu Xianzhi? She even used the word "please".

Xing felt jealous.

She went to the Chuihua Gate to welcome him but didn't even have the chance to go to the main hall, and the Duke's wife actually sent someone to invite Xu Xianzhi.

Xing's eyes rolled. "Xianzhi has a serious cold. I just came out of her hospital. She was coughing so hard that she couldn't speak well."

Hearing that Xu Xianzhi had caught a cold, the nanny looked nervous.

Li Jinglan was pregnant, and if she met someone with a cold at this time, if something went wrong, the entire Duke's Mansion would be in trouble.

"Thank you, Grandma Qiao. I won't go to see it. I will go back to the main hall to report first."

The nanny didn't dare to enter Xu Xianzhi's yard and left in a hurry.

Xing curled up the corners of her lips and smiled, then slowly walked towards her courtyard.

The main hall of the main courtyard.

After hearing the report, Li Jinglan stood up, her expression was both surprised and distressed: "Auntie has caught a cold? Have you found a doctor?"

She called Xu Xianzhi "Aunt", which showed that they were close friends.

Xu Xianzhi also has a daughter at home, so he must let Xu Xianzhi's daughter come to see her and talk to her.

The Xu family really underestimated Xu Xianzhi.

When she was poor in the past, if Liu hadn't helped her, she couldn't even deal with Lu Zhang.

Later, if Xu Xianzhi and Xu Feng hadn't helped and supported her, she wouldn't have been able to do business.

A drop of water should be repaid with a spring.

"My aunt is not in good health. I am really worried. Can I go and see her?"

Li Jinglan looked anxious.

What has the old Duke’s wife not seen?

I immediately understood that Li Jinglan wanted to support Xu Xianzhi.

Who is Li Jinglan?

If Lu Bozhou entered the Eastern Palace, she would be the mistress of the Eastern Palace.

The Queen has already prepared three Zhai and three clothes for Li Jinglan. These are clothes that only the Queen and the Crown Princess can wear.

What's more, Li Jinglan is pregnant.

What if it's a man?

The old Duke's wife glared at the Duke's wife fiercely.

He took Li Jinglan's hand and stood up together. "Xianzhi has always been filial. She never dared to tell me when she was sick, for fear that I would worry about her. If you hadn't said you wanted to see her today, I'm afraid she would have waited until she got better before telling me."

"Come on, come on, I'll go with you to see Xianzhi, and take a walk around the yard at home."

"We have a small lake in our backyard. Opposite the lake is the Prince of Jin's Mansion, to the east is the Duke of Wei's Mansion, and to the west is a royal garden."

"Ningguo." The old Duke's wife called Princess Ningguo again, "Jinglan and I are bothering you today and want to ride in your chariot."

Although Princess Ningguo didn't like Li Jinglan, she still respected the old Duke's wife and agreed with a smile.

The old Duke's wife and Princess Ningguo have both gone, so how dare the rest of the people stay where they are?

A group of people went to Xu Xianzhi's yard in a mighty procession, riding in sedan chairs or oil-painted carriages.

I heard that the ancestor and Princess Ningguo came to the courtyard of the second house.

Xing stood up in surprise and said, "Go out and greet them."
