Tie Kui Extra Story (82)

Meng Ranxi couldn't wake Ruhui up no matter what, so she had no choice but to get up and ask Ruhui's personal maid to call her.

Last night, she didn't sleep until midnight, Ruhui was so sleepy. Waking up by Sui'er, her confidant, Ruhui pushed her hand away and muttered, "Don't make trouble, let me sleep again!"

Sui'er was also very helpless, and said: "Girl, you have to get up and serve tea to the old man and the old lady."

Ruhui opened her eyes with difficulty, but saw a dark mass outside: "What kind of tea are you serving so dark?"

Even so, Ruhui still got up and put on her clothes. Newlyweds always pay attention to wearing new clothes, so Xiao made thirty sets of new clothes for her. With the clothes from the first month, I can wear new clothes every day.

After washing and washing, it was already three quarters of an hour later. When the young couple arrived at the main courtyard, all members of the Meng family were present.

Meng Xuemin is now the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, and he has great authority at home. Although Ruhui made everyone wait for a while, but because the head of the family didn't speak, the others didn't dare to say anything.

Looking at the radiant Ruhui, Meng Xuemin said with a straight face, "Bring the tea!"

Ruhui met Meng Xuemin once, and was a little worried when he saw his stern face. After going back, I told Ning Zhan specifically. As a result, Ning Zhan told him that Meng Xuemin had a strict temper, but in fact he was easy to get along with.

With these words, Ruhui is no longer afraid of him.

The maid immediately poured tea for Ruhui, and then put two straws on the ground.

Ruhui held tea in both hands, and said to Meng Xuemin with a smile: "Grandfather, drink tea."

Meng Xuemin was surprised to see that Ruhui was not afraid of him. After drinking half a cup of tea, he put it down, handed a red envelope to Ruhui and told him and Meng Ranxi to live a good life, and then said: "If there is anything you are not used to at home, tell your grandmother."

The rest of the Meng family couldn't help but be dumbfounded, they didn't expect to get the old man's respect as soon as they walked through the door. In the Meng family, the old man is the real authority. No one dared to disobey his words.

Ruhui felt that Ning Zhan was right. Mr. Meng was indeed a friendly old man, so he smiled sweetly, "Thank you, grandfather."

Next, Ruhui offered tea to Mrs. Meng.

Mrs. Meng gave a pair of pomegranate hairpins inlaid with rubies. As soon as the gift was taken out, the face of Mrs. Meng's family changed a little. The old lady is really eccentric, and she gave more greeting gifts to the second daughter-in-law than to the eldest daughter-in-law.

Many people below,

She also looked at Ruhui jealously. Coming so late, the old man and the old lady were not at all unhappy, and even gave such a generous meeting gift.

Inserting a pair of flower hairpins on Ru Hui's head, Mrs. Meng said with a smile, "Ru Hui, grandma is looking forward to you opening branches and leaves for the Meng family earlier."

It was hard for Ruhui to answer these words, and she immediately showed a shy look on her face.

Serve tea to the two old men, and then salute Mrs. Meng and Mrs. Meng.

When a new daughter-in-law passes through the door, the elders always give gifts. Mrs. Meng gave a wishful gold hairpin, and Mrs. Meng gave a golden step.

Guo Ru Huishou had hundreds of pieces of jewelry, and as soon as she got the golden step, she felt that the weight was not right.

After the elders, it is the greeting of the peers. Those who are married should give them gifts, and those who are not married and the couple of the next generation should give them a meeting gift.

After seeing the ceremony, it's time for breakfast. When the Meng family eats, men and women are staggered. However, because it is a family, it is only separated by a screen.

The new daughter-in-law of the Meng family has to establish rules when she enters the house, and Ruhui has known this for a long time. So as soon as the dishes came, Ruhui stood by Mrs. Meng and prepared to serve her dishes.

Ruhui has already inquired about the old lady's preferences, so all the dishes she likes are served.

This old man likes to be valued by the younger generation. Seeing that Ruhui knew her preferences well, Mrs. Meng was very happy: "You are also tired these two days, let's sit down and eat together!"

Ruhui said happily: "Thank you, grandma." After speaking, she sat down happily.

Mrs. Meng said with a fake smile: "Mother really loves Ran Xi's daughter-in-law, she makes her very envious."

Mrs. Meng glanced at Mrs. Meng and said, "Peng'er and his daughters-in-law feel the same pain for me."

Speaking of it, Mrs. Meng was very upset, because none of the three daughter-in-laws was in her favor. Meng Xuemin was an official of the Ministry of Criminal Justice in the previous dynasty. Because the prisoner in a case was a child of the Song family, he was dismissed because he refused to accommodate. After that, he took his wife and children back to his hometown, Pick City.

Mrs. Meng is a girl from a squire's family, and Meng Xuemin hadn't become an official when she got engaged to Mr. Meng's family. After getting through the door, it was pretty good at first, but as Meng Xuemin's status rose, her shortcomings were revealed. Small-minded, likes to care about and compare everything, and only has one-third of an acre of land in his eyes. No matter how Mrs. Meng taught, it was useless. As for Mrs. Meng Er, she is the daughter of Meng Xuemin's old friend. Mrs. Meng thinks that she is too strong and does not agree with this marriage, but Mrs. Meng has promised her that there is nothing she can do. As for the third wife of the Meng family, who is the daughter of the old lady's cousin, her family background is ordinary but her appearance is outstanding, so she was caught by Mr. Meng at a glance. Because Master Meng San's left leg is a little lame, she agreed to the marriage. As a result, after Yao passed through the door, the old lady discovered that she was very fond of money. To put it bluntly, she is a miser, and she can't get the money out of her hands.

After eating, Meng Xuemin went to court. The female relatives are also scattered.

The fifth girl of the Meng family opened the purse, and saw inside it were two and a half Ruyi silver nudes.

With a cold snort, the fifth girl of the Meng family said: "It's only one tael of silver, how stingy. It's too much for the day of cleaning!" Grandma Meng gave two taels of silver as a meeting gift that day. Therefore, she thought that there were two gold nudes in the purse.

The main reason is that everyone in the Meng family knows that Ruhui is rich and spends money lavishly. This also led everyone to think that she was also generous.

Meng Ranxi accompanied Ruhui back to her yard, saw Ruhui's tired face, and asked her to go back to her room to rest.

Ruhui didn't answer this question, but asked, "Sir, my eldest uncle and elder brother are both released as officials. Why do my eldest aunt and sister-in-law stay at home?" As the eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Meng has to stay at home to do housework and fulfill her filial piety Makes sense. But Grandma Meng was left at home at such a young age, so it was unreasonable.

Meng Ranxi said vaguely, "Grandfather and grandmother are getting old, so my aunt and sister-in-law will stay and take care of them."

When Ru Hui heard this, she said with a frightened expression on purpose: "So when you become an official, I won't be able to follow you?" Others don't care, anyway, she will never let Meng Ranxi be released alone , and then stayed in the capital with the children. Three to five months is nothing, but in three to five years the husband will have to belong to another woman.

Meng Ranxi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will take you and the child with me if I let you go."

This made Ruhui very satisfied. After Meng Ranxi went out, she went to bed to catch up on sleep.

On the second day, Meng Ranxi accompanied her back to the door.

Ning Zhan waited at the door after breakfast, and hurriedly greeted them when he saw them.

The mother and daughter were alone together, and Ruhui couldn't help complaining: "Mother, sister, do you know? My sister-in-law gave birth to two children, and she still has to feed my aunt. It is said that two years ago I had to make up my mind in the morning and evening, but I was reprimanded by the old lady before I gave up." Seeing Grandma Meng, Ruhui was glad that she didn't have a mother-in-law. Otherwise, if you want to meet a mother-in-law like Grandma Meng, you can't bear it every minute.

Xiao quickly asked: "What about the old lady? How does the old lady treat you?" No matter how mean Mrs. Meng is, she is the aunt next door, and Ruhui can't control her.

Ru Hui said with a smile: "The old lady is kind and amiable, she is very kind to the juniors."

"Where's Ran Xi? How is Ran Xi treating you?"

Ruhui shyly said: "He treats me very well." Anyway, she is very satisfied at the moment.

Seeing this, Xiao felt relieved: "Be filial to Mrs. Meng and Mrs. Meng, and take good care of Ran Xi. Don't worry about other matters of the Meng family."

"Mother, don't worry, I know." Just take care of the affairs in their yard, and she doesn't want to take care of the second master Meng's concubine, Aunt Gui, and the four concubines.

Ruhui also believed that Meng Ranxi didn't want her to take care of it. After all, what happened to her mother-in-law back then was all caused by Aunt Gui. Unless Meng Ranxi is the holy father, denying that she would never want her to take care of the four children born by Aunt Fogui.

Xiao Shi has always been at ease with Ruhui, seeing that she is doing well in Meng's house, she is happy to tell Zeng Chenfu, the girl Yuxi showed her to.

"Shen Fu? Shen Shen Fu Fu, why did you choose such a strange name?"

Xiao said: "It's the morning of the morning, the hibiscus of the hibiscus. It is said that this girl was born in the morning, and it happened that the lotus in her pond bloomed, so she was named this."

After finishing speaking, Xiao asked Ruhui, "Have you heard of Zeng Chenfu?"

Ruhui shook her head. Because Ning Zhan's marriage was entrusted to Yuxi, Ruhui didn't pay attention to the girl who was similar to Ning Zhan's age.

Ruyi smiled and said: "Mother, I have met Miss Zeng. She looks outstanding, and she seems to be easy to get along with. It is said that she is also very talented. There are rumors that the queen likes her very much. If she was not born a few years later, the queen would choose her. She's a princess."

"How old is she this year?"

This Xiao family knows: "Xuan is sixteen years old, and I will marry Ji in September this year." The girls in the capital now basically start talking about marriage after Ji Ji.

Ruhui smiled and said: "The empress's vision is unmistakable." No matter what, she must be better than her mother.

Mrs. Xiao hummed and said, "I'll deliver the post to the Zeng family tomorrow." I just hope everything goes well, and then I can ask the empress to marry me.

When going back, Ruhui saw Meng Ranxi holding a few books, and she was overjoyed: "However, a few books made you so happy?"

"These are all orphans, and they are hard to buy."

Ruhui smiled and said: "If you know you like it, you should go to my father's warehouse to pick out two boxes as a dowry that day." Ruhui doesn't like reading, and she doesn't like reading books. So when she got married, she didn't ask for books.

Meng Ranxi's eyes widened: "Are there a lot of orphan copies in the father-in-law's warehouse?"

"My father has more than 20 boxes of books in camphorwood boxes in the warehouse, but I don't know if they are orphans or not. But these books are very thick, and I have to get them out to dry two or three times a year." Because it is Ning Hai It was specially explained, so Xiao Shi and Ruhui dare not be sloppy.

Meng Ranxi hurriedly said, "Then after I finish reading these books, I can exchange them with Brother Zhan."

Ruhui said with a smile: "It's so troublesome, tell me after you finish reading, and I'll take it home and exchange it for you." It's okay to borrow books at your natal home, but it's not okay to take them. After getting married, you can no longer ask for things from your natal family.
