An old lady's life

Lin Hai and Jia Min rested for an afternoon, and their spirits really improved a lot. That's why they are young and have strong resilience.The two couples woke up almost in tandem. Lin Hai lifted the bed curtain and asked in a hoarse voice, "What time is it?"

In late autumn, the temperature contrast between day and night is large, and it gets dark early, so Lin Hai can't guess what time it is.A gust of wind blew in from the window, and the cold air hit the bed tent. Jia Min, who had already sat up, hugged the light pink brocade quilt, and suddenly woke up.

There is no one in the inner room, but the outer room is always guarded.The four maidservants around Jia Min, the ones who will guard the outer room are Mo Qin and Qingqi.Mo Qin and Qingqi, who were doing show work, were suddenly startled by the sudden appearance of the voice. After they could react, Mo Qin stood up and replied: "Master, it's just passed."

Mo Qin's figure was reflected on the door of the inner room. Lin Hai got off the bed and began to dress. Jia Min said while dressing, "It's so late, is there a message from the old lady?"

At noon, it was agreed that the family would have dinner together in the evening.

Mo Qin said again: "The old lady sent Qing Zhi to send a message before You hour, saying that dinner will be served at the old lady's place, but the old lady said that there is no need to wake up the master and wife, just wait for the master and wife to wake up."

Lin Hai and Jia Min's movements inevitably sped up a bit, and when they arrived at Huifang Courtyard, it was already another quarter of an hour later.Of course, Ai Cao had received the news that her cheap son and daughter-in-law had woken up, so she asked someone to heat up the pot.

If you want to eat hot pot, then you really want to eat hot pot.

It's a pity that Lin Hai and Jia Min keep their filial piety, and she shouldn't irritate the young people, and she eats a little vegetarian at night, just to cleanse the intestines and keep healthy.In fact, after the arrival of the wormwood, my spirit and body have improved a lot. I haven't been sick for a few days, and I don't even have any symptoms.

For this hot pot meal, Ai Cao specially asked the kitchen to prepare a lot of vegetables.In ancient times, off-season vegetables were rare. For the seven or eight kinds of vegetables on the table, mugwort took a lot of thought.

The soup in the pot was boiling. Looking out from the gate of the courtyard, two lanterns approached from a distance. The lanterns stopped at the gate of the courtyard and lined up on both sides of the gate. Lin Hai and Jia Min appeared in sight.

The pot was cooking in the outhouse, the soup was boiling, and the wormwood was sitting behind the lingering steam. She waved and said, "Come here, it's just right!"

Lin Hai and Jia Min sat on both sides of the wormwood, and Lin Hai said with a bit of guilt, "Mother, it's your son's fault that you are tired of waiting for your son."

Jia Min pursed her lips, and took over the act of adding wormwood to the pot. The dishes were put into the pot one by one, which was really elegant.

Ai Cao joked with a smile on her face: "You come here every day, don't you feel tired? Don't be so polite with your mother in the future." But she was complaining in her heart. Cultural people seem to be very polite when they speak and do things, but she feels tired panic.

Lin Hai nodded with a smile, glanced at the dishes on the table, and said apologetically, "Mother, please accommodate me and my wife."

Ai Cao glared at Lin Hai, not wanting to talk to him anymore, and started talking to Jia Min instead.This man apologized at every word, which really made her a little bit unbearable, so let's talk to his beautiful daughter-in-law.

Jia Min's appearance is relatively elegant and graceful, she smiles without showing her teeth, and Ai Cao likes her reserved look very much.

When Jia Min first married into the Lin family, her mother-in-law gave her the power of housekeeping in the mansion after seeing Sanchao return home, and she moved to Huifang Courtyard instead to support her life. She is very grateful and filial to her mother-in-law.But this relationship cannot withstand scrutiny. Whether one person treats another person well or not, you will naturally feel it after a long time. After about half a year, Jia Min had a faint feeling that her mother-in-law was actually not satisfied with her. She didn't know where she was. What she did was wrong, but she also wanted to improve her relationship with her mother-in-law in the pure environment of the Lin family.It's just that when she noticed that her mother-in-law mentioned Qing Yao and Qing Zhi intentionally or unintentionally every time she paid her respects to her husband, and even made the two of them appear frequently in front of her husband, she felt aggrieved.But the mother-in-law hasn't given it to the husband after all, so she can only hold it in her heart.

There are quite a lot of maids serving in the room at the moment, her maids Mo Qin and Qing Qi, her mother-in-law's maids Qing Yao and Qing Zhi are all there, and there are six second-class maids from Huifang Courtyard, but the mother-in-law did not let Qing Yao and Qing Zhi came to wait on her, but did it herself, Jia Min couldn't help but feel doubts in her heart.Could it be that the mother-in-law gave up the idea of ​​letting Qingyao and Qingzhi be concubines, or is the mother-in-law holding back her big move?

Big move?Thinking of the issue of keeping filial piety, Jia Min's heart beats again. She has to keep filial piety for a year, and her husband only has nine months, but what about the last three months?

Ai Cao can't control what her sensitive daughter-in-law thinks, she can chat with Lin Hai every time a topic is mentioned, such as what happened in her hometown when the old lady was alive, the three of them went back to their hometown to visit the grave.

"Daughter-in-law, don't you know that Hai'er looks like a frail scholar now, but he was mischievous when he was a child. When he went back to his hometown to worship his ancestors, he went down the river with his cousins ​​to fish, climbed trees to dig out bird eggs, what did he do?" Pass."

Jia Min looked at Lin Hai teasingly, and Lin Hai blushed for a while: "Mother, this is all about Chen Zhima rotten millet hundreds of years ago, how do you still remember?"

Ai Cao said cheerfully: "If his father hadn't died of illness and the burden was on him, he would become so mature." As he said, Ai Cao poured white water into the three empty cups persistently in the teapot, "Drink more water , since your father passed away, you worked too hard and got seriously ill, and your body is not as good as it used to be." This water is water from the pool in the space, and the aura is more abundant than outside. In the past few days, she She also drinks this water every day, and this is the reason why she doesn't get sick. Ai Cao is sure that this water is very good for her body, and it will only take effect slowly, and it will not be doubted immediately.

Thinking of his father, Lin Hai couldn't help but have red eyes, and he picked up the teacup as if he was drinking, and he was stuffy.

Jia Min slowly sipped the water, and the small cup soon bottomed out.

Ai Cao couldn't tell the difference between the two of them, "Don't drink tea at night, so as not to get sleepy too late, just drink water or other beverages. As long as you husband and wife work together well, it will be a blessing for the Lin family. "

Anyway, she came here, it seems useless, to develop food, drink, entertainment projects, she thinks she will be very happy.However, Lin Hai was much smarter than Jia She and Jia Zheng, and he was hard to fool. It seemed better to wait for Hongye to come up with it in the Rong Mansion and then use it for her.

It's a pity that it's inconvenient for her to contact Hongye now. It's easy for people to think about it by letting the servants pass the news. Is there a better way?

Ai Cao's words were quite emotional, and Lin Hai and Jia Min were immediately moved. Lin Hai grinned and said, "Okay, my wife and I will manage the Lin family well, and we will honor our mother well. When we have a child in a few years, my mother will Don't be so lonely anymore."

Jia Min smiled gently, Ai Cao said yes again and again, and said: "But the child's matter is not urgent, our Lin family's children have always come late, and I gave birth to you when I was approaching [-], don't put too much pressure on you young couples , but she was so tired that she would not send the child to our family. If you are in good health and the fate comes, the child will come to our Lin family."

Lin Hai nodded without thinking too much, Jia Min's mood was really up and down, and she couldn't confirm whether what her mother-in-law said was true.

The three talked and laughed, and it took half an hour to finish the dinner.Afterwards, the leftovers and Lengzhi asked the servants to evacuate. Lin Hai and Jia Min may have had enough rest in the afternoon and were still in good spirits. It was time to go to bed, and the couple left Huifang Courtyard.
