The Rebirth of Han Yuxi - Chapter 2193

[Chapter 2193 Tie Kui Fanwai (117)]

Xiao Shi was very happy when she found out that Ruhui was pregnant, but she was too worried after seeing the letter saying that she had severe morning sickness.

“Master, I don’t have a reaction to pregnancy, and I don’t have a big reaction to Ruyi. How can Ruhui eat and vomit?” This child, every time she becomes pregnant, is like a severe punishment.

After listening to it, Ning Hai was very speechless: “You ask me about this, who should I ask?”

Xiao Shi said: “I only hope that I can pass earlier, otherwise I will suffer too much.”

Ning Hai hesitated and said, “Why don’t you write to Ruhui and ask her not to give birth after giving birth to this child.”

Xiao Shi rolled his eyes at him and said, “It is a woman’s duty to have children. What would you think if you let your in-laws know what you said?” Comparing her heart, she hoped that Zeng Chenfu would have more grandchildren. Many grandchildren and granddaughters are not only lively, but also a sign of the prosperity of the family.

Seeing Mrs. Xiao’s disapproval, Ning Hai didn’t want to continue the topic: “Speaking of which, Brother Zhuang is also three years old, why hasn’t Mrs. Ma made a move?” Ruhui and Ruyi sisters frequently received good news, it was the young daughter-in-law. Now pregnant with a second child. On the contrary, she is the eldest daughter-in-law. She has been in the business for more than eight years, and now she has only one son and one daughter.

Mrs. Xiao said: “I don’t know about this either. You also know that I have never dared to ask more about Mrs. Ma.” Now that she has a son and a daughter under her knees, she is too lazy to care about it.

Ning Hai knew that what happened back then had made Xiao Shi’s partner Hui jealous. If he didn’t speak up, Xiao Shi would not care about the husband and wife’s affairs: “Ma Shi learns to be a housekeeper, how’s it going?”

Mrs. Xiao nodded and said, “The maid next to her learned to read, and now that maid can understand the ledger. I will let the lady in charge teach her well, and she will definitely be her arm in the future.” Mrs. Ma can count by herself, and Not bad. She can learn to read, but she turns her head and forgets after learning, so she is impatient to learn it herself.

Ning Hai couldn’t help frowning.

Xiao Shi knew what he was thinking at a glance: “Don’t worry, you can calculate the approximate monthly expenses of the backyard at that time, and then allocate a sum of money to the backyard at the beginning of the month. Even if the girl is thinking, she can’t be too greedy. Yes. By the way, you reminded Xia Hui that external affairs must not be handed over to the Ma family. Especially when dealing with each other’s rituals, Ma must never let Ma’s hands.” Otherwise, it is absolutely a piece of chicken feathers.

Ning Hai’s brows furrowed even deeper.

Xiao Shi didn’t act as Jie Yuhua this time. Fang Hui and Ma Shi, she has always been able to ignore them.

Ning Hai couldn’t help but sighed: “If I knew earlier, I shouldn’t have agreed to A Hui marrying Ma.”

Shaw didn’t answer. If it was Ning Zhan, she would never agree to this marriage. But Fang Hui is not her own, plus what Fang Jia did at the time just passed. Her willingness to ask a matchmaker to arrange the marriage was the biggest concession. As for what kind of daughter-in-law Fang Hui married, she didn’t care.

At the end of May, Zeng Chenfu gave birth to another big fat boy. Xiao Shi was overjoyed, his eyes narrowed.

“If it weren’t for the fear of bad influence, I would really like to open ten tables here and invite everyone to eat the full moon wine.” Some people only make the full moon wine with their eldest son or daughter. There are also, every child will have a full moon wine. The Ning family has few children and everyone is precious, so they will hold a full moon wine.

Ning Hai said: “Now that the new emperor is on the throne, we have to keep a low profile.” The full moon wine is held in the capital, but it will not be held here, so that no one will question him taking the opportunity to receive gifts.

Ning Zhan named his second son Ning Yuanyi, and he didn’t have a nickname, so he just called him Yi Ge’er.

Before sending Brother Yi’s full moon ceremony to the capital, the Xiao family got angry again.

Ning Hai came back to see Xiao Shi who was as angry as a toad, and asked, “What? Who messed with you again?”

“Who else did you say?”

Ning Hai asked suspiciously, “Ms. Ma? What did she provoke you?” Mrs. Xiao didn’t like seeing Mrs. Ma, and Mrs. Ma avoided seeing Mrs. Xiao if she could. To say that she took the initiative to provoke Xiao, Ning Hai really didn’t believe it.

Mr. Xiao said with a dark face: “Brother Zhuang’s full moon birthday, A Zhan and his wife have given heavy gifts. In addition, they also gave gifts last year and this year’s birthdays. But now Brother Yi is full of moon feasts, but the two of them are better. , I’ll give you two sets of clothes.”

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Xiao asked the maid to bring up the clothes. The muslin cloth used for the material is also finely stitched. However, it is really too shabby to send only these two sets of clothes.

Xiao Shi said angrily: “It’s just two sets of clothes, and he told me that I can’t afford a generous gift if I don’t have money. What do you mean? Does this mean that we have treated them badly?”

The more he talked, the angrier Mr. Xiao said: “The two shops and 800 acres of fertile land you gave to Fang Hui, the annual income is two or three thousand taels of silver, plus Fang Hui’s salary. Why are they so poor? Can’t afford the full moon ceremony of 80 taels?” Fang Hui’s family of four not only did not have to spend a penny for food and clothing, but Ma and their two children also had 60 taels of monthly bills. So, it’s not that Xiao’s nitpicking, but Ma’s approach is too irritating.

Ning Hai also felt that the full moon ceremony was too thin, but he still said: “Fang Hui has been busy recently and has not been home for more than half a month. You said before that she doesn’t understand anything, but now you are being honest with her, this is not selfish. Looking for anger.” When he met such a daughter-in-law, he was very helpless!

It was rare for Mrs. Xiao to be choked, but she quickly said, “I don’t care, but have you thought about what Ah Zhan and her daughter-in-law thought when they saw this ceremony?”

It took Ning Hai a long time to hold back a sentence: “Please explain it to Ah Zhan and his wife.”

Mrs. Xiao sneered: “Explain? How to explain? Said that Mrs. Ma was stingy and reluctant to give a decent gift? If Fang Hui and his wife knew about it, they would say that I arranged them.”

“When Fang Hui comes back, I’ll ask him to make up a gift.” Ma’s temper was that way, and it would be impossible to expect her to change.

Xiao Shi was sulking for two days, and it was better after the personal maid helped her.

Zeng Chenfu was surprised to receive the full moon gift from Ma Shi. That night, she told A Zhan about this, and after that, she said, “Husband, is your brother and sister-in-law very tight?”

“what……”

Zeng Chenfu said: “Husband, you can use the family’s money as you like. The eldest brother and sister-in-law are so strapped that they can’t even afford a decent full moon ceremony. You said that if this matter spreads out, what will people think of us? I will think that your mother is bullying your elder brother and elder sister together with you.”

After hearing this, Ning Zhan said with a dark face: “Impossible. Before getting married, except for the salary, Dad would give him a sum of money every year for his social entertainment. After getting married, Dad didn’t give him any more money, but he bought it for him. Two shops and one farm.” These are public accounts, and Ning Zhan naturally knows.

Anyang’s uncle’s family is rich, and Ning Zhan is in charge of all the family’s properties. So, he didn’t even bother.

It has been three years since Zeng Chenfu entered the door, and he has heard that Ma Shi is stingy. But she didn’t expect that Ma was so stingy: “Husband, you are highly regarded by the emperor now. How many people are jealous! If this matter spreads, they will only think that you want to occupy all the family’s property.”

Ning Zhan said, “People are not afraid of crooked shadows, they just say what they like.”

This is a bit childish. Zeng Chenfu said: “Husband, it doesn’t matter now, but what about in the future? When you take the 100-foot-high pole further, someone will attack you and cause you to stop and go no further, and you will regret it later. It’s gone.” In the officialdom, no reason can be left behind. Otherwise, it is very likely that they will fall into trouble in the future because of this. Therefore, we must guard against the future.

Originally, he didn’t take it seriously, but after hearing these words, Ning Zhan also took it seriously.

Zeng Chenfu held Ning Zhan’s hand and said, “It’s up to me to tell my mother about this.” It is more appropriate for Xiao Shi to tell Ning Hai.

Ning Zhan nodded and said, “Thank you for reminding me, otherwise I would have been negligent.” Why do people in official careers especially cherish feathers. If you don’t pay attention to a small thing, it will become a reminder in the future, or it will stop your career.

A few days later, Xiao received a letter from Zeng Chenfu. After reading the letter, her face instantly became difficult to look at.

Yu Mei asked, “Madam, what did Madam Shizi say? Is it about the full moon ceremony?”

Xiao Shi nodded and said, “It’s okay for Fu’er to say that the etiquette is low. I’m afraid that if it is spread out at this time, outsiders will mistakenly think that A Zhan and I have treated their husband and wife harshly.”

Yu Mei hesitated, but finally said: “Madam, Madam Shizi is right to be concerned. In fact, the servants have never dared to tell you, there are rumors that you have treated the uncle and the eldest grandma badly.” Fighting with Ma Shi After dealing with her, she naturally knew who she was. But if you don’t know Ma’s person, you can only think that Xiao’s treated their family of four harshly.

When Ning Hai came back in the evening, Mrs. Xiao said to him, “Master, after you start working, divide the family between the two brothers. I don’t mind if they let the two share the property equally.”

Xiao Shi is not the kind of person who takes money very seriously, so Ning Hai bought a property for Fang Hui, and she knew that she didn’t say anything.

Hearing this, Ning Hai angrily said, “What nonsense. A Zhan is the heir, and the family’s property will naturally get 70%.”

In fact, Fang Hui’s 30% of the property in Anyang’s uncle’s house is enough for his family to have enough food and clothing for generations. Of course, the premise is not to squander. To appear a prodigal, gold and silver mountains are not enough.

Feeling that his tone was too aggressive, Ning Hai eased his mood and said, “What did Mrs. Ma do to make you angry?”

Xiao Shi said: “Some people outside are saying that I have a benevolent face, and I have treated Fang Hui’s family of four harshly. Master, it’s fine for me to be slandered as a vicious stepmother, but I can’t let Ah Zhan bear the burden of occupying the family property and bullying my brother in the future. Notoriety. My lord, A-Zhan’s reputation is particularly important as a person who has a career in office. I can’t let Ma’s ruin A-Zhan’s reputation and ruin his future.” My daughter-in-law didn’t say it, she really didn’t know how serious this matter was.

Ning Hai felt very tired.

Xiao Shi cried and said, “Master, Fang Hui is your son, but A Zhan is also your son.”

Ninghai didn’t sleep that night. The next day I woke up with bloodshot eyes.

Xiao Shi was very distressed when she saw this, but for her son’s future, she could only be ruthless.
