Concubine Raiders Chapter 70: Birthday

Chapter 70 Birthday

Xu Lingyi heard that all relatives had given birthday gifts, so he had to go to the wife to discuss the birthday party: "...Although it is not a big deal, I always have to buy a few tables of wine."

The wife shook her head: "It's not a whole year old, just a meal for the family."

Xu Lingyi wants to persuade him again, and the lady has said: "By the way, I heard that the emperor is going to use troops against the northwest?"

"You are better informed than me." Xu Lingyi knew that her mother was worried about herself, and laughed, "I have filial piety now, and the king is like a cloud. The emperor originally only praised me by reciting the kindness of the empress. That’s all. Now that you are successful, you must know how to retire in time."

Mrs. Tai nodded: "The best you can think like this."

"But what did someone say in front of you?" Xu Lingyi smiled, "Or who wants to be in the rice business?"

"Ghost and clever." Madam Madam smiled, "It's your third brother. He said someone from the Lin family asked him to join him and asked if I could do it?"

Xu Lingyi heard Mrs. Tai's tone and knew the answer, but he didn't laugh.

Mrs. Tai sighed: "The moon will be full, and the water will overflow. There are more people who know, but fewer people can do it." She was very emotional.

Xu Lingyi wanted to comfort her mother, but she didn't know where to start. She was embarrassed. A little maid came in and said, "Fifth Master and Fifth Madam are here!"

Mrs. Tai smiled.

Xu Lingyi couldn't help but feel relieved.

Fifth brother always makes mother happy...

A man and a woman walked in side by side.

The man wears a jasper hairpin and wears a moon white brocade robe, his face is like a crown jade, and his temples are like a knife. The woman wore a flower twill with a lake pigment face makeup, and the jet-black green silk was combed diagonally in a pony bun, and her eyebrows were affectionate and beautiful as flowers. The two stood together, a little more expensive than the golden boy and yu girl in front of Guanshiyin.

"Come, come, come," Mrs. Tai looked at it and she was delighted in her heart, "Sit down by my side!"

Xu Lingyi stood up and gave up his seat to Xu Lingkuan and his wife.

Xu Lingkuan saw his mother, his face was full of joy, and he yelled "mother" affectionately. He looked up and saw the fourth brother standing up. He was less happy by seven points.

He subconsciously stepped back two steps, weakly yelling "Fourth Brother..." Madam Tai and Madam Fifth were dumbfounded.

"What did you do outside?" Mrs. Tai winked her eyes at the younger son.

"No, no." Xu Lingkuan, who is usually very clever, was a little stunned at the moment, "Really not. During this time, I was listening to dramas in the garden every day, and I didn't go anywhere."

Mrs. Tai couldn't help but rush.

Xu Lingyi still can't see how her mother's mind is to protect her younger brother.

When my father passed away, the third brother was busy with family affairs, and he was busy with outside affairs. Only the younger brother was beside his mother, and his feelings were different. He couldn't comfort his mother himself, so he acquiesced to the younger brother's love under his mother's knees, and then he developed the younger brother's somewhat frivolous temperament. Strictly speaking, I am responsible, and I cannot always blame him for acting impetuously...

Thinking about it this way, he couldn't help but smile and excuse the younger brother: "He goes to the Imperial Forest Army every day these days, and their deputy commander Li praises him a lot! Don't worry, mother."

Mrs. Tai sighed as she listened, and her smile became a little more comfortable: "Okay, okay, okay. You can be so obedient, it's better than anything."

"Mother," Xu Lingkuan came over immediately, smiled and sat next to his mother, "Don't blame me when you see me. Since the fourth brother taught me, I know I did something wrong, and I have changed it now. "

The wife laughed: "I know, I know, I won't talk about you again." The tone was very doting.

Madam Fifth looked at her with a pursed smile, and stepped forward to salute Mrs. Tai and Xu Lingyi.

Mrs. Tai pointed to Jin Xiao who was aside: "Little Five, sit there. Give your position to your wife."

Xiao Wu deliberately muttered: "Seeing you are used to Danyang, you will be bullying me in a few days."

"Danyang is not the kind of person you said." The lady chuckled, "Come on, Danyang, sit next to my mother."

The fifth lady was busy lifting her skirt and sitting on the kang, and her own little maid brought the grand teacher's chair to Xu Lingyi to sit.

When the maids had tea, a little maid said: "Madam, the second lady is here!"

"Please come in soon!" As soon as Mrs. Tai's voice fell, the second lady walked in with a carved red lacquer box.

Seeing Xu Lingyi, she was slightly startled: "Master Hou is here too!"

Xu Lingyi stood up and shouted "Second Sister-in-law" respectfully.

Xu Lingkuan brought the Jin Xiao she was sitting in front of the second wife: "Second Sister-in-law, sit down!"

The second lady smiled and thanked Xu Lingkuan, and then saluted Mrs. Tai and Xu Lingyi. Then he sat down and passed the box in his hand to Yao Huang, who was serving on the side: "Fortunately not insulting!" /

There are matching cards and account books of the inner and outer houses of Xu Mansion.

Xu Lingyi hurriedly said: "Thank you Ersao, I have troubled you these days."

"Master Hou is polite!" The second lady stood up hurriedly, "Everyone allows me to be lazy on weekdays. Now I can help, let me do my best, how can I talk about labor."

The wife laughed when she heard this: "The family doesn't say anything about two families. Sit down!"

The two smiled and sat down again.

Mrs. Tai said: "Yizhen, thanks to you this time. Otherwise, Yuanniang's funeral can't be done so decently."

The second lady laughed and said: "My mother asked me to sit down with Hou Ye, how can I be polite by myself."

Everyone who said something laughed.

A maid came in and said: "Mrs. Madam, the internal affairs said that by the order of the queen, she sent two baskets of cherries."

"Quick!" Mrs. Tai was overjoyed, "Take it in and have a look."

A little maid brought the cherry in.

I'm talking about two baskets, which add up to no more than 20 catties, covered with green leaves, very cute.

Mrs. Tai immediately asked one of the baskets to be cleaned, and then told Wei Zi: "Go, call the third wife and some children to try it out."

Just after Yuanniang’s funeral, the third uncle Xu Lingning went to the few people who had given sacrifices but didn’t come—such as Father Lei, the servant at the empress’s side. Such people went to thank you, not at home, but Joe The lotus room is at home...

The fifth lady just opened her mouth to remind Mrs. Tai, remembering that Qiao Lian's room is not as good as it used to be, and swallowed again.

Wei Zi left in response.

Madam Tai pointed to another basket: "Send it to Gan Mansion, Sun Mansion and Luo Mansion."

The second wife's parents have passed away. Only one adopted brother is the prefect of Xinyang, and no relatives are in Yanjing.

Yao Huang is busy arranging someone to deliver the cherries.

Soon, the third lady came with a few children.

The chattering in the room was very lively, and even the brother who had just lost his mother smiled.

Mrs. Tai handed the carved red lacquer box to the third lady: "You still control it!"

The third lady lowered her head in shame: "Mother, let the second sister-in-law take care of it. I really don't have enough energy!"

Mrs. Tai knew that she was referring to the spring banquet, and she smiled: "If you don’t eat a bite, you won’t gain a wisdom. This time you see how your second sister-in-law acts, and you should be able to learn something. In the future. Just pay attention."

"Yes." The third lady answered with her head down.

The fifth lady took her to sit down: "Sansao, eat cherries, or you will be robbed."

It made everyone laugh, and the third lady was more comfortable.

Xu Lingkuan took the opportunity to discuss the wife's birthday: "...in the morning, some of our brothers will come to pay you birthday, have a birthday banquet, and after the birthday banquet, let Geng Changsheng sing for you with a 20% discount. , Let the small Wufu juggling team do tricks for you..."

Mrs. Tai looked at the young son's words with joy, knowing that he had arranged it carefully, and then looked at Xu Lingyi, looked at his younger brother with a smile, but her eyes drifted far away, and the joy just now faded a few times.

"...Geng Changsheng’s business will be good in the future. Just use his name, and he will be invited to the choir for longevity..."

Xu Lingkuan was still talking about his thoughts there, and Mrs. Tai interrupted him with a smile: "People are coming and going during this period. For tomorrow's birthday, you brothers can come to me for a birthday banquet. "

"Oh!" Xu Lingkuan was a little disappointed.

When returning home at night, Xu Lingning, the third master of the Xu family, knew that the third wife had regained the key to the housekeeper, and couldn't help but smile: "Mother still has you in my heart..."

The third wife smiled coldly and interrupted Xu Lingning's words: "What do you know? She was afraid that it would be difficult for the eleventh mother of the Luo family to enter the door by then, so I let this unjustified daughter-in-law be in charge. When the time comes, I will have to take the key back anytime..."

"Why are you talking about this again?" Xu Lingning couldn't help but whispered, "Although I was a concubine, my mother never treated me as an outsider..."

"Don't say a few words!" The third lady interrupted her husband without waiting, rolling her eyes, and putting them affectionately on her husband's shoulders, "What did the Lin family say last time, what are you going to do? "

Xu Lingning "hum" a few times.

The third wife raised her eyebrows: "What do you want to say? You can't say it properly. How come you can answer everything clearly in front of the wife, and when you get to me, you can't understand everything."

Xu Lingning listened unhappily: "Mother said, this will not happen!"

"Why not?" The third lady sullen, "People Jianninghou and Shou Changbo are still doing business with Dushui Division of the Ministry of Industry? And they are still doing business without capital. We are real money investors. , Why can't it work?"

Jianning Hou and Shou Changbo are the two elder brothers of the current empress dowager, and the Ministry of Industry and Water Resources controls the world, rivers and ships...

"That's different~IndoMTL.com~The empress dowager is kind to the emperor..." Xu Lingning said vaguely, "The emperor knows it, and will open his eyes and close his eyes!"

The third lady laughed angrily: "What kind of grace, she just couldn't give birth to a son and didn't want to be abolished, so she raised the emperor under her name. If it wasn't for the Xu family, or the emperor, she would have been Concubine Ye was pulled down..."

Xu Lingning was so frightened that she covered her wife’s mouth when she heard her utterly boundless words: "You keep your voice down, you keep your voice down, but don’t let people hear it. Dad told me before he died, no one It’s quasi to say something like the'Xu family back then' in front of the world."

The third wife grabbed her husband's hand over her mouth: "Hold to death the courageous, starve to death the timid. Xu Lingning, I can tell you, you have two sons to raise! That's yours. My own flesh and blood..." As he said, tears fell in his eyes.
