Chapter 226: Uneasiness (Part 1)

Man proposes, God disposes.

Everything she had to do was done, Eleven Niang made up her mind, and after dinner, she took the children back to the lotus.

The third lady was sending Mrs. Huang, Marquis of Yongchang, and Grandma Huang out of the Chuihua Gate. When she saw Eleven Niang coming back, Grandma Huang greeted Eleven Niang with a smile, but her eyes fell on Xu Sijie.

It's a done deal, and hiding some things is disrespectful to the children.

Eleven Niang introduced several children to Mrs. Huang and Grandma Huang San in a graceful manner.

Mrs. Huang was startled for a moment, then showed a friendly smile: I have invited your mother-in-law to play at home tomorrow, and the fourth lady must come with her.

Eleven Niang responded with a smile, and together with the Third Madam, she sent Madam Huang and the Third Grandma to the carriage, and then she took the child to the Madam Tai's place.

Brother Zhun was chirping about how he played hut with Brother Xiu and Brother Ji. Mrs. Tai and Xu Sijian listened with laughter, but Xu Siqin and Xu Siyu slipped out and whispered to each other under the eaves.

Eleven Niang smiled slightly. Xu Siqin had also reached an age where he had troubles.

The third lady pointedly told Eleven Niang: Many guests came to the house today, all looking for the Marquis. The Marquis has not come back yet.

On the first day of the earthquake, the reaction was naturally a bit big.

Eleven Niang smiled so lightly that she answered the question unreasonably: "Where is the Third Master? Why haven't you seen the Third Master?"

The third lady was very surprised. She did not expect Eleven Niang to avoid this question. Did she not know or was she confident?

Before hesitating, Mrs. Tai had already invited the third lady and the eleventh mother to talk together.

Tomorrow there will be a spring banquet at the Yongchang Marquis Mansion. The day after tomorrow will be Liangge’s hometown, the sixth day will be the Hou Lin family of Weibei, the seventh day will be the Zhongshan Hou Tang family, and the eighth day will be our family. She told all the arrangements until the Lantern Festival, and then looked at the ten

Mother, I heard from Shizheng’s wife that on the sixth day of the lunar month, she was hosting a banquet for some princesses and their consorts at home, and she wanted you to join in the fun. I think so, on the sixth day of the lunar month, I will go to Weibeihou’s house, and you will go to the eldest princess’s house. And

After seeing the third lady, I will leave all the family affairs to you.

Eleven Niang and Third Madam bent their knees in response. Madam Tai nodded. Seeing that it was getting late, she went back to the house with her daughter-in-law and asked Manager Bai: What's going on outside?

Manager Bai did not dare to hide anything and said in a low voice: Everyone was talking about it, and several imperial historians wrote for impeachment, saying that the Marquis's tone was weak and his moral conduct was lacking. The emperor refused.

There is no mention of collecting the enemy before the formation. It seems that this matter will take a while.

But when Eleven Niang returned to the yard, she took Amber Binju to open the box and look for fine cotton cloth.

Amber whispered in her ear: Sister Huanhuan said that you can rest assured that if there is any trouble at Wuyiniang's place, they will send a driver to report it to us. Let us tell the concierge here. If Xiaoliuzi comes over,

Don't stop me from entering. It will delay your time.

I'll leave this matter to you. Eleven Niang smiled and took out a piece of fine cotton cloth with a white background and purple flowers from the cage. Look at this piece. I think it's good for children's underwear.

Bin Ju covered her mouth and smiled: What kind of obscene clothes are children wearing? I think it is a small coat. This cotton cloth costs three liang of silver a piece.

Amber also said: Yes. Children grow up when they see the wind. With such a good material, it is better to make a small coat for obscene clothes.

They look good. Xu Sijie, who was sitting on the side eating sweets, suddenly said, "The clothes are good-looking."

Eleven Niang laughed and kissed Xu Sijie’s little face: You also know how beautiful it is.

He covered his mouth and smiled, the candy in his mouth flowing all over his hands.

Eleven Niang asked the little maid to pour hot water to clean his hands, and asked him with a smile: "Can I do one for you too?"

He nodded deeply: Mother does it too.

Alas, after Mrs. Bin Ju heard this, the fifth young master called his mother.

Eleven Niang smiled and touched his head.

The word mother was too literal, and she really didn't feel much about it.

After hearing this, Amber ran over with a smile: "It's true, the fifth young master called me madam."

Xu Sijie saw that everyone was happy and laughed too.

Eleven Niang picked out a few more pieces of brocade: to make two spring clothes with brighter colors for Brother Chen and Brother Jie. She also thought that since she made them for Brother Zhun and Xu Sijie, she should also make two pieces for Xu Siyu. As for Sister Zhen, she

I was afraid that two pieces of spring clothes would not be enough. I had to wait for her to come back. Then I brought out two more pieces of brocade and discussed with Bin Ju: The second young master is older and will inevitably move around the inner and outer courtyards, so his clothes need to be used for needlework.

Let’s make some new styles that are popular in Yanjing. As for Brother Zhun and Brother Jie’s, let’s help them do it.

Bin Ju smiled and nodded. When she saw Dongqing lowering her head and cleaning the fabric, she said with a hint of ridicule: "That won't work, madam. Spring is about to begin. Without Sister Dongqing, how can we do so much needlework?"

You are going to die. Holly blushed and went to pinch Binju.

Bin Ju smiled and hid behind Hu Hu, but her big eyes flickered at Eleven Niang: Madam, Sister Dongqing hit me.

Eleven Niang just laughed.

Dongqing's face turned red and she lost the cloth: I won't marry.

Bin Ju smiled and said: This is strange. When did we say that Sister Dongqing was going to get married? Is it because she thinks about it day by day and dreams about it at night?

Amber smiled and bent over.

Dongqing was so embarrassed that she turned around and ran out, but she bumped into Mother Tao outside the door. If the little maid next to her hadn't seen and helped her urgently, she would have fallen flat on her back.

What are you doing? Mother Tao smiled and entered the house.

Amber and Bin Ju just pursed their lips and smiled.

Eleven Niang asked the little maid to bring Tao Tao's mother a spoon: "What can I do, Mom?"

Tao's mother glanced at Xu Sijie, who was following closely behind Eleventh Mother, and said with a smile: I heard from the stewards in the outer courtyard that Mr. Hou was impeached by the censor for the matter of the fifth young master. So he came here to talk to his wife. He added, "Look,

Should we send the fifth young master out of the house to avoid the limelight? We can wait until the weather calms down and then bring him back.

Eleven Niang felt the skirt of her skirt tighten.

Looking back, I don't know when Xu Sijie had grasped her skirt nervously.

I already know about this. Eleven Niang said with a smile, Lord Marquis asked me to take it with you. Don’t say more if you want to.

Mother Tao was about to say something else, but a little maid reported: Madam, the Marquis is back.

Eleven Niang glanced at Tao's mother with a warning look, then led Xu Sijie to greet Xu Lingyi.

Seeing that Xu Sijie was still in the main room at such a late hour, Xu Lingyi's eyes showed some surprise.

Eleven Niang smiled and explained: We are cleaning out the boxes and cages, and we want to make some spring clothes for my aunt, Brother Yu, Brother Zhun, Brother Zhen, Brother Jie.

Xu Lingyi nodded and entered the inner room.

Eleven Niang hugged Xu Sijie, who was following her like a little tail, and then handed him to Bin Ju to take him down, and followed her into the inner room.

What's the situation outside? Eleven Niang gave Xu Lingyi the tea brought by the maid.

Just like that, Xu Lingyi took a sip and acted accordingly.

Seeing that he looked relaxed, Eleven Niang stopped asking further questions and followed the Tai Madam to the Yongchang Marquis Mansion for a banquet the next day.

Most of the guests in the Huang family are relatives or old friends, and the conversation mostly revolves around trivial family matters. People are also frank when asking about their children, which is exactly the opposite of the scene when they go to Liangge's hometown. Most of the guests in Liangge's hometown are important officials of the court.

, everyone looked at Eleven Niang with a bit of inquiry, but no one asked about the child, as if this matter had never existed. When we went to the eldest princess's mansion on the sixth day of the lunar month, the situation changed again. Everyone

His attitude towards the children was somewhat disdainful, thinking that the censors in the court had nothing to do and just stared at other people's private affairs every day, so they didn't pay attention to them at all. The emperor's eldest sister, Princess Ancheng, was even more so.

He sneered and said: They are all a bunch of guys looking for fame and reputation, thinking only about how to get killed in the Jinluan Palace so that they can leave their name forever.

At that time, several princesses were playing cards in the pavilion, and the youngest Eleven Niang, whose husband had the lowest status, had to stand aside and look at the cards. She couldn't help but break into a cold sweat while listening.

Princess An Cheng’s words have allusions.

In the forty-sixth year of Jian'an, Princess An Cheng's consort was impeached by the imperial censor for selling salt, and was finally punished with a cane. He still walks with a limp.

Eleven Niang didn't feel comfortable commenting, so she smiled coquettishly.

Princess Yong'an, who was sitting under Princess Ancheng, said: The only one to blame is the high position of Marquis Yongping. If it had been anyone else, how could he have continued to cause trouble from before the year to the end of the year? Speaking of which, Yanjing is not the only one to blame.

This thing.

Listening to her words, everyone's eyes fell on her.

Haven't you heard that Princess Yong'an was startled when she saw this? The second son of Chang Ning's family got involved with the gangster from Mao Guo's mansion. She hadn't been at home for years. Chang Ning was so angry that she didn't get out of bed for several days.

.

Wang Lang of the Duke of Mao is the only son. Could it be that he is talking about Wang Lang?

Eleven Niang’s heart was beating wildly.

I remembered that during the Chinese New Year, the steward of the Wang family said that Wang Lang had caught a cold.

She took a deep breath, suppressing the confusion in her heart and listened.

Let me tell you, that day we all went to pay New Year's greetings to the Queen Mother, but she was the only one missing. Princess Ancheng said, "This time it's really like a needle-point, and I'm going to meet a gangster. I'm afraid there will still be trouble."

Who says it’s not the case? Princess Yongan said with a smile, that’s why Chang Ning is helpless.

Eleven Niang couldn't stand listening anymore. When she saw Mrs. Zhou bringing her maid in to serve tea and snacks, she took her out of the Nuan Pavilion.

Who is the second son of Princess Chang Ning’s family?

He is the eldest son of Princess Chang Ning. Mrs. Zhou thinks that Eleven Niang has a very good character and is the Queen's sister-in-law. Inviting her here also means introducing her to several princesses. Seeing that she had questions, she hurriedly explained in detail, Chang Ning

The princess had only one son. He was tall and handsome, and was favored by the late emperor. He had a bit of a temper. Even nine oxen could not bring him back if he was determined to do something. Everyone called him Erzhizi.

Mrs. Zhou was also familiar with the situation of the Wang family, so Eleven Niang simply asked: Does Princess Chang Ning’s eldest son also like to play with her husband?

Mrs. Zhou was startled and said: How do you know?

Eleven Niang told what Princess Yong'an just said, and also told the story about Wang Lang not going to pay New Year's greetings to the great master during the New Year.

Mrs. Zhou smiled bitterly after hearing this: Let me help you ask what is going on.

Over the weekend, guests came to the house, so the update is late, and there are still bugs. Let’s take a look first, and I will continue to catch bugs.
