Chapter 1445·Porridge shed

Everyone has said this, what else can Granny Yi do?

Aunt Qi led the people away in dejection.

Grandma Yi sighed. Seeing that the herbal tea and porridge were cooked, she ordered her mother-in-law to start putting the porridge. She was busy until noon, and the number of people queuing up to receive the porridge decreased.

Grandma Yi is getting older and has not done any heavy work in recent years. She is a little tired now. The woman in the second room has quick eyesight and quick hands, so she brought a small stool and said, "Mammy, sit down and rest for a while."

Aunt Yi couldn't help but look her over and asked curiously, "Where do you come from? You look strange. I've never seen her before."

The mother-in-law whispered, "I am a subordinate of Grandma Rui. I came from Chongqing. I didn't move around much before, so naturally grandma didn't recognize me."

Grandma Rui?

Aunt Yi immediately realized that it was the person sent by Bai Xiurui's wife. She asked in a low voice, "Was it Mrs. Rui's decision to send you here, or was it Mrs. Cai's idea?"

The woman looked embarrassed and lowered her voice and said, "The second madam has many people and things to do, so naturally it is our grandma's orders."

Aunt Yi nodded.

Did she just say...

It’s not like I’ve never dealt with Mrs. Cai. When did she become so virtuous?

It turned out to be Grandma Rui's idea.

Aunt Yi immediately became polite to the two women in the second room.

In the afternoon, the foreign minister heard the news, and the eldest lady not only came in person, but also brought two young and strong women to help.

She saw Grandma Yi busy under the shed and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Why is Grandma also coming out to work? It's such a hot day. What should I do if I get a heatstroke? I can leave the outside matters to my mother-in-law."

Aunt Yi hurriedly saluted her and said, "The eldest lady is here. Now that the second bedroom is not at home, and there is no one on the other side of the long bedroom, I naturally have to keep an eye on it more to avoid making mistakes and throwing people outside.

, the old lady is also shameless."

The eldest wife said, "I just heard about it. I was afraid that there wouldn't be enough manpower here, so I brought two people here to help."

Aunt Yi was grateful and invited her to see Mrs. Min.

Then the eldest lady said, "It's noon. I'm afraid the old lady is taking a rest. Don't disturb her anymore. I'll just stand outside for a while."

Grandma Yi liked her neat and cheerful temperament very much, and said with a smile, "It's hot today, and the old lady slept lightly. I'm afraid she woke up early, so it's okay."

After saying that, he led Mrs. Ze to Qizitang.

Mrs. Min was sitting in the hall reading a book, and Yu Jin was fanning beside her.

Seeing the visitor, Mrs. Min was very surprised and said, "You are a rare visitor, why are you free to come here today?"

Then the eldest wife said, "I heard that there is a porridge shed at home, and I thought about coming over to help." As she said this, she saluted Mrs. Min and said, "How are you? The weather is getting hotter day by day since summer.

It wasn’t like this in previous years, God really doesn’t want people to live a good life.”

Mrs. Min smiled and said, "Everything is fine with me. If you're sorry, Madam is also thinking about it." After saying that, she ordered the maid to pour tea quickly.

Then the eldest wife said, "The fruit trees in the garden at home have begun to bear fruit. Although the fruits are small, they are sweet and crisp when you eat them. I brought you a basket and put them in the well water to chill before eating. Then

It’s so refreshing.”

"I'm interested." Mrs. Min was polite and asked about the situation in the foreign minister's room.

The eldest wife said, "My life is pretty easy now, and I don't have anything to worry about. There are only two things... One is Yuan Zhi's marriage. He is already this age. Whenever he mentions starting a family and starting a business, he will immediately give you a frown."

I don’t know what happened. Secondly... Brother Lang has reached his age. If there is a suitable family, he has to settle the marriage. He is in our Bai family for four years, and Brother Rui above him is getting married quickly.

It’s been a year.”

Mrs. Min said, "Marriage is the top priority in life, and it cannot be rushed. If Yuan Zhi does not have this intention, he cannot force it. Otherwise, even if he has a family, it will not be the same if he does not go through life? He has delayed the girl in vain.

The youth of the family. Having such a brother-in-law here does make things difficult for you, my sister-in-law."

Then the eldest wife smiled and said, "I really can't do anything about him, but I can't just let him go on like this. As the saying goes, a sister-in-law is like a mother. Now that you have become someone's sister-in-law, you cannot let go of this responsibility."

Mrs. Min nodded, "Do you have any clues?"

Then the eldest lady sighed, "No way! Think about it, the young girls of the right age have already been engaged, and the ones who are still waiting to be married now either have some shortcomings, or they are too high-minded and difficult to find. After all, they are not

A good match. Besides, I'm also worried. Yuan Zhi is already so old. If he marries a young daughter-in-law and enters the house, will the two of them have anything to say?"

Old Mrs. Min said, "Isn't that right... That kid Yuan Zhi has a weird temper. If you don't follow his wishes, you might cause some trouble."

Then the eldest wife said, "How else is it difficult to say anything? Lange's marriage is easy to discuss, but Yuanzhi is the only one. I really have no idea."

Mrs. Min thought for a while, "If I remember correctly, is there a sixth lady in the Yao family who is not yet married? It is said that she has dignified conduct, can calligraphy and painting, and is a rare talented woman."

The eldest wife said, "You are talking about Miss Yao Liu. Of course I know this. She is twenty-four years old this year, right? Her age and Yuan Zhi are more suitable, but it is said that this Miss Six is ​​seven or eight years old."

We were engaged before, and he was also his cousin. The two were childhood sweethearts, and their relationship was extremely good. It’s a pity that the cousin is here

During the business trip, she was injured by a horse bandit. After that, the Sixth Miss became depressed and stayed behind closed doors all day long. The Yao family also intended to find another marriage for her, but unfortunately, the Sixth Miss forced her to die.

Formed. And... you know the situation of our family's Yuanzhi, and I know it, and the Yao family may not like it, so why bother to show it."

Mrs. Min said, "Maybe the opportunity hasn't come yet, so just wait patiently."

The eldest wife smiled bitterly and said, "I can wait, but our master can't wait any longer. I see his attitude, and next year at the latest, even if he catches the duck, he will still have to be stuffed into Yuan Zhi's bridal chamber."

Mrs. Min said, "I'll keep an eye out for you later to see if there's a suitable girl."

Then the eldest lady said, "Thank you very much, madam."

The two of them talked for a while, and then the eldest lady wanted to leave.

Mrs. Min said, "What's the hurry? We'll have dinner here before leaving. It's rare to come out."

The eldest wife smiled and said, "How can I be so lucky? There are still a lot of things waiting for me at home. I will go back to see Brother Zhi soon. Feng has not had any appetite these two days, so I have to give him some food."

She's going to buy some sour preserves."

Mrs. Min said, "As a sister-in-law, you really have a lot to worry about."

Then the eldest wife said, "I was born to be busy. If I were to be free one day, I'm afraid I wouldn't be used to it yet."

Mrs. Min did not stay any longer and asked Aunt Yi to send her to Li Xuetang.

Bai Rongxuan is listening to Wang Dequan's report on the accounts of several shops in Shanghai.

Accompanied by Wang Dequan, she recently visited several shops and finally had a basic understanding of Sanfang's business in Shanghai.

Wang Dequan said, "Nowadays, foreign goods are more and more popular, but it is difficult to do local business. For example, the Min family, why it has grown so fast in the past two years, is because the foreign goods in Min's firm are easier to sell. We don't

The supply of goods in this area, business is getting worse day by day.”
