A lucky wife born again from a farm family

It's true that the old lady has lived her life for too long and been praised by others for too long, and she regards herself as someone who can dominate anyone.

Besides, the girl from the Gu family can tell from a post that the old lady despises her and then fails to come to the appointment, which shows that she is knowledgeable. If you don't have any knowledge, how can you tell that there is something wrong with the post.

Grandma Chen is not old enough to know who is at fault in this matter, but she is Mrs. Qi’s servant. She has relied on Mrs. Qi to live a good life in her life, so she cannot offend Mrs. Qi, so He didn't point it out, but said: "Miss, in my opinion, let's put this matter aside for the time being, lest the second master finds out about it and will have a problem with you again."

Because the eldest son of the Qi family rose to the rank of official in the capital, Mrs. Qi always kept her mouth shut from the most promising eldest son. The second master felt uncomfortable after hearing this. He felt that Mrs. Qi loved his eldest brother too much and did not like him as the second son.

Mr. Qi refused: "He wants to give up his own son to a peasant girl for a few penniless coins. Why can't I say a few words to him? If he dares to be dissatisfied, it would be extremely unfilial."

The old ladies in Dachu all like to use filial piety to suppress others. They especially like to use this trick that has never worked well, and Mrs. Qi is no exception, she uses it the most smoothly.

After hearing this, Grandma Chen said: "Miss, the second master respects you the most. You can't let the second master feel cold."

Then he said: "Why don't you just endure it for a day? When the Gu family comes for the banquet tomorrow, you can call the girl over and have a look. By then, you can do whatever you want to intimidate her, but you're afraid you won't find the chance."

Mrs. Qi was so anxious to post a message to the Gu family because she knew that Mr. Qi would invite the Gu family to have a dinner tomorrow, and was afraid that Mr. Qi would mention the marriage tomorrow, so she hurriedly posted a message to the Gu family, beating the Gu family and letting the Gu family People know they are afraid, and they know that a family like the Qi Mansion is beyond the reach of their peasant family.

In this way, when Mr. Qi invites him to dinner tomorrow, even if he hints at the marriage between the two families, the Gu family will not dare to accept it.

But who would have thought that it would be her, Mrs. Gaoming, who would be disgraced in the end!

Seeing that Mrs. Qi's expression was still not good, Grandma Chen hurriedly said: "After all, you are also the old lady of Qi Mansion, and the biological grandmother of the four young masters. If the marriage of the four young masters does not have your approval, even if Even the eldest and second uncles can’t agree to it.”

She persuaded her in a gentle voice: "My good lady, don't worry. Without your nod, the girl from the Gu family will not be able to become a concubine in the Qi Mansion, or even a girl who is married to her."

After saying this, Mrs. Qi was happy and reluctantly said: "This can only be the case now."

Early the next morning.

Mr. Qi called Manager Lin over as soon as he arrived and explained: "The banquet should be arranged better, and the portions of all dishes should be doubled. The Gu family is a peasant family, and these peasants like to eat in generous portions, but You can’t let people eat just two chopsticks and then the food is gone.”

"Yes, I have written it down." Manager Lin responded and reported the progress of the banquet again: "The men's table is arranged in the water pavilion in the front yard, facing the lake, and the lotus flowers are in bloom in the evening. , you can enjoy the view while eating.”

Mr. Qi nodded and said to Manager Lin: "Go and tell Brother Yun and Brother He that you will only have half a day of classes today. You will come back after noon to prepare and follow me to meet the guests."

These are his two sons, both legitimate sons, and he values ​​them very much. I heard that the Qin family boy is also here. He is a man who has done great work in suppressing bandits and has met the prefect. He will definitely have a good future in the future. Even if the future of the Qin family boy is not good, it would be good to let the two sons meet the old man of the Gu family and rely on Brother An of the Gu family to catch up with the Zheng family and Shangguan family in the future.

Mr. Qi stretched out his hand to ask the maid to dress him, and said, "How is the Li family? It will be useful for me to write down the recent events of the Li family."

The girl from the Gu family will not make life easy for the Li family. The worse the Li family is, the happier she will be.

"Yes." Manager Lin responded, and after listening to a few more instructions from Mr. Qi, he retreated.

After Mr. Qi had washed and dressed, he went to the side hall to have breakfast with his wife, and told his wife Zheng: "The Gu family girl has asked Madam to entertain her. That girl is so angry that she can't stand it. Madam must tell her servants not to let those who don't grow up." The maid in front of you bumped into her, otherwise if she got angry, our family would lose a lot of money."

Mrs. Zheng felt a little uncomfortable when she heard this: "Second Master, although our family has made a lot of money relying on the Gu family's spices, there is no need to be so... cautious, right?"

She wanted to say it in a low tone, but she was afraid of angering Mr. Qi, so she didn't dare to say it.

Mr. Qi was drinking porridge. When he heard this, he put down the porcelain spoon, looked at Mrs. Zheng and said, "Madam, the Gu family can benefit our family more than just spices. The boy of the Gu family is the eldest brother of the girl of the Gu family. Now he is in Jinling Mansion. Following the two eldest grandsons of the Zheng family and the Shangguan family in and out of the Jinling Mansion, they are people who have met Ming Shaoqing. Regardless of how great the future of these young people will be, just say that now, if we can maintain a good relationship with the Gu family Well, we can use the Gu family to catch up with the Zheng family and keep up with the Guan family. This is something that will benefit our descendants, but we can't neglect it."

The door to a real aristocratic family is not easy to knock on, and he does not want to miss this opportunity.

Mrs. Zheng was a lady, and although she didn't like that her husband-in-law valued a peasant family so much, she was a polite person. After hearing Mr. Qi's explanation, she temporarily put aside her displeasure and agreed.

She hesitated for a while, then asked tentatively: "Second Master, would you like to call Sister Zhu to entertain the Gu family girl together?"

Sister Zhu was Aunt Tang's daughter and had always been favored. Mr. Qi often asked Mrs. Zheng to take Sister Zhu with her when she went out to dinner parties.

Mr. Qi thought for a while, shook his head and said: "No need, Sister Zhu is a concubine after all. Even if the Gu family girl comes from a peasant family, she is the daughter of the first wife, a legitimate daughter, and she has a bad temper. It is not suitable for a concubine to accompany her." .”

Sister Zhu also has a bad temper. If the girl of the Gu family is angered, he won't be able to flatter her and will have to lose the business.

The contract clearly stated that the Gu family could not sell spices to the Qi family at any time. When Mr. Qi thought of this, his rather handsome old face turned into a bitter look.

Mrs. Zheng was very happy to hear this. With a smile on her face, she served Mr. Qi breakfast.

After Mr. Qi had breakfast, he got up and went about his housework. He returned home at noon and started waiting for the Gu family to come.

But he waited from noon to the end of Youshi, and it was already dark, but he still didn't see the Gu family coming to the door, and he became anxious: "Isn't it the Jiang family's concierge, Dad, who didn't send the post to the Gu family?"

Manager Lin said: "It's absolutely impossible. I just sent people to Jiang's house today to ask the concierge. The concierge said that he had given the post to the girl of the Gu family."

"Then why didn't you come?" Mr. Qi was puzzled.

The eldest son Qi Yun said: "Dad, could it be that I am not familiar with the streets in the city and have been delayed? Why not send Manager Lin to pick him up? It will also show the sincerity of our family."
