The Lady of the Big House in the Red House

What is the master thinking? Seeing him staring at her in a daze, Xu Hui asked with straight eyes.

"Oh, it's nothing." Jia Amnesty's eyes moved to Xu Hui's stomach, "It's almost seven months."

"Yes, I will be born soon." As her belly changed day by day, Xu Hui gradually felt the excitement of being a first-time mother.Being able to feel the growth process of a child in the womb is a blessing in itself.Her hands were on her stomach, and the corners of her smiling mouth showed tender love.

No.17 Back when Jia Min married Hui Hui and gave birth

September [-]th was Jia Min's wedding day. Early in the morning, Xu Hui came to Jia Min's boudoir with a big belly to talk with her, preparing for the last things before she got married.During this time, Jia Min was taught by Mother Jia how to get along with her husband's family, how to house the house, and how to be a qualified mistress.After not seeing her for a long time, Xu Hui noticed that Jia Min had lost a little weight, but she looked even better after putting on makeup.

"Sister-in-law is working hard with her stomach upright, so let's go back to rest earlier." Jia Min's makeup was specially done by a bridesmaid, and the red gold ruby ​​hairpin made her even more charming and gorgeous.Xu Hui recognized that the emerald emerald phoenix on her bun was treasured by Jia Mu for many years. It was Jia Mu's dowry in the past, and it was the most expensive one in the set of emerald emerald noodles.

"I still have the energy to be with you." Xu Hui smiled and said, "I'm just sitting here talking with you, and it doesn't hurt my spirits. But you, you didn't sleep well last night, I'll look at you Eyes are a bit swollen."

"I was scared, so I couldn't sleep well." Jia Min let Xi Niang help her put on the gold-studded ruby ​​earrings, looked in the mirror, and said, "Last night, my mother stayed with me all night, but I thought about it." Today I am no longer the Jia family, and I am always a little scared. And my mother also said that our family is better than the Lin family, so I don't have to worry about getting along with the old lady of the Lin family. "

This old lady is really, is it necessary for her to rely on her family background to gain a foothold in the Lin family before her daughter is married?If you marry and follow your husband, no matter how good your natal family is, you can't rely on your natal family to dominate your husband's family.Xu Hui came over to help her straighten the flower hairpin on her head, and said: "Although it is so, the Lin family is a scholarly family after all, and they attach great importance to the rules. If you marry and obey your husband, you must be filial to the old lady of the Lin family." .”

"I understand, my sister-in-law told me before, and I will keep it in my heart." Isn't her sister-in-law also the daughter of the Xu family, and the Xu family is also a big family in the capital, and she must abide by filial piety when marrying into the Rongguo Mansion How dare you say "my natal family is a well-known family in the city".Jia Min looked at Xu Hui's stomach, "It's a pity that my nephew will not be born. But sister-in-law is so lucky, she will definitely have a brother."

"I would like to borrow your good words." Xu Hui said with a smile, "I have asked my brother about that Tanhua Lang. He is a very good person. Although he is young, the emperor has high hopes. You must be cautious when you marry into the Lin family. It started in Gusu, south of the Yangtze River, and it pays attention to rules the most. It is conceivable to be angry in the first few years, so you must be patient first."

"Sister-in-law has said this many times, and I will remember it."

While the two were talking, Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang also came in one after another.Mother Jia was a little surprised that Xu Hui arrived so early, she glanced at Wang Shi, and said, "You should have a good rest when you are pregnant. Come here early in the morning, have you had enough rest?"

"I rested early last night, so I'm very energetic now." Although Xu Hui was surprised that Mother Jia treated her so kindly.Ever since their eldest family moved to Rongxi Hall, Jia Mu's attitude towards Jia She and her has become much colder, but she still quickly maintained a decent smile on her face, and replied, "After all, it's my sister's big day, come on. It’s the right thing to give away.”

Jia Min is the most beloved child of Jia's mother, and any kind behavior towards Jia Min will make Jia's mother feel good.She nodded with satisfaction, and asked Xi Niang to bring a hipa embroidered with spring flowers, and cover it for Jia Min herself.Her eyes were a little red, and finally she couldn't help wiping away her tears with a handkerchief.

"Old lady, the auspicious time has come." Mrs. Wang stepped forward to help Mother Jia, "Let the nun send Miss Min to the sedan chair."

Xu Hui glanced at Mrs. Wang, and also stepped forward to support Jia's mother and said, "Today is my sister's big day, old lady, don't be too sad. After three days, my sister will return home and live in the right place in our house." What about Yue, besides, the Lin family is in the capital, so it will be convenient for them to meet in the future. My uncle is also a talent chosen by the old lady, and my sister will definitely be happy after marrying." As soon as the words finished, Jia She came to the house. Ready to put Jia Min on the sedan chair.

"It's hard for you to come here so early." Mother Jia patted the back of Xu Hui's hand, "Go back and rest."

Jia Amnesty nodded slightly to Mother Jia, and took another look at Xu Hui. Seeing that she was still in good spirits, she asked the nun to guide Jia Min to climb on his back and carried her sister out.

Wang Shi was slightly aggrieved on the side.Looking at the dowry prepared by Mother Jia and the betrothal gift from Lin's family, there are 88 sets full of them, decorated with bright red silk cloth, being moved out of the warehouse one by one, her eyes straightened.Back then, when she married from the Wang family, there were only 48 sets of dowry, and when Xu Hui married in, it was only 64 sets. After all, the old lady was partial and gave all the good things to Jia Min!

"Ma'am, the old lady went out with her, look..." Zhou Rui's family saw their master's displeased face, and they were afraid that she would offend the old lady by saying something wrong.One must know that Miss Min is the sweetheart of the old lady, and if Miss Min's marriage was ruined, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Talk!" Mrs. Wang gave Zhou Rui's family a sideways look, and then forced a smile to follow out, watching the sedan chair leave at the second gate.

"My wife has been busy all morning, so let's take a rest." Li Nanny was relieved when she saw Pianran and Huang Ying supporting Xu Hui back.Seeing that her stomach was almost nine months old, and she, the master's wife, ran out to get married regardless of her body, Li Nanny was worried and anxious, but fortunately she came back safe and sound.

"Don't worry, mama, I'm fine." The older the month, the heavier her body became, and now Xu Hui had to be supported by someone when she walked.Taking off her embroidered shoes and handing over all her body weight to the big red ice-crack brocade forging pillow behind her, Xu Hui pulled off the five-colored jeweled gold step shaker on her head, and asked someone to recomb her hair, and then said, "Today, my lord! It was eaten at Lin's family. Although there is a table of meals in our house, I am afraid that the old lady's intentions are not very thoughtful. Ask the small kitchen in our yard to prepare the meals that my master and I usually like. The dishes are used for tonight's supper."

"Yes." Nanny Li asked Jinmian to give Xu Hui a shoulder tap again, "Jinmian is Jinxiu's younger sister, Madam said she would promote her to her side."

"I remember." Xu Hui said with a smile, "You are already this old."

"My sister said that being able to serve my wife is a blessing for my servant, and this servant is also very happy." Jin Mian said with a smile, "I heard that my wife is about to give birth, and my sister also told this servant to take good care of her."

"Your sister is a good one, and you are also a well-behaved one." Xu Hui asked Nanny Li to give Jin Mian a pair of gold-encrusted jadeite bracelets, "During this period of time, you should study hard by Pianran's side."

"Yes." Jinmian accepted the purse handed over by Nanny Li, and said with a serious face.

Xu Hui saw Lin Hai for the first time when Jia Min came back from three dynasties, and he was indeed a young talent as her brother said. He was dressed in black, with a face like a crown jade, gentle and elegant.Seeing Jia Min shyly greeting Mother Jia with Lin Hai, Xu Hui knew that the couple must have had a good time these three days.

After Lin Hai greeted Jia Mu, he followed Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng to sit in the front, while Jia Min sat in the flower hall talking to Jia Mu and others.She is combing a bun near the clouds, on which are three or two silver hairpins inlaid with water-glazed hollowed-out clouds and smoke and a few clusters of lingering flowers inlaid with gold dots and emerald green branches, revealing the charm of a young woman from the inside out.

"Is the old lady of the Lin family easy to get along with?" Mother Jia asked as soon as she opened her mouth, "How is my uncle treating you?"

"Everything is fine, the old lady is a very talkative person." Jia Min replied with a smile, "Master is also very good to me, mother can rest assured."

Xu Hui moved her body, and just about to open her mouth, she heard Wang say: "The old lady has been thinking about it since Aunt Min got married, and you used to have someone clean your yard every day, which shows that the old lady cares about you. "The courtyard of a girl's house is bigger than the west courtyard of their second room, and she walks in and out with one foot and one foot, and she is more delicate than the girls in other houses.

"Of course my mother loves me." Jia Min glanced at Wang, "Before I went out, the old lady told me to bring some gifts for my mother and sister-in-law. Bai Shao, bring the things that the old lady gave me. .”

Bai Shao is Jia Min's dowry, and the other maid is Chi Shao.White peony is calm and honest, and red peony is beautiful, and their respective functions are self-evident.Bai Shao brought three small boxes, the red sandalwood one was passed to Jia Mu first, the rosewood one was passed to Xu Hui, and the poplar wood one was passed to Wang Shi.Jia Min said: "I gave my mother a set of mutton fat and white jade head masks, my sister-in-law's silver emerald head masks, and my second sister-in-law's red gold emerald head masks. These are the old ladies looking for Jiangnan masters. All of them are handcrafted in the south.”

Mother Jia nodded in satisfaction.Xu Hui knew that she must have something to say to Jia Min alone, so she resigned first.Wang Shi curled her lips and left first.

"Looking at what the second wife said today, those who didn't know would think that the second wife was jealous of Aunt Min."
