Mu Shi cheered up and stood up with a smile. Qiu Rou also stood up. When Feng Shaojun came in, Mu Shi glanced at her and secretly praised her in her heart.
Feng Shaojun, a first-time mother, has regained her slim figure, her complexion is translucent, and her eyes are full of energy. It can be seen that she has taken good care of her body after giving birth to a child.
Mrs. Mu opened her mouth and praised Feng Shaojun: "The fourth young lady's complexion is really good. She is so white and rosy that she can't even tell that she has just given birth to a baby."
Qiu Rou quickly raised her head and glanced at Feng Shaojun, and actually called "sister-in-law."
Feng Shaojun raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at Mu Shi meaningfully.
Madam Mu immediately felt embarrassed. She scolded this inconvenient little girl ten times and a hundred times in her heart. She forced out a smile and said, "My sister intentionally got close to the Fourth Young Mistress. She was a bit abrupt. Please don't blame me, Fourth Young Mistress."
Whether you are close or not cannot be decided by a rash sister-in-law.
Feng Shaojun had no intention of paying any attention to Qiu Rou. He smiled and asked Mu: "You and your sister-in-law came to visit together today. Why?"
The implication is very clear. Mrs. Mu is Qiu Rou's eldest sister-in-law, so don't bother her.
Mu's face was burning, and she had to lower her body and smile to show her goodwill: "We are here today, and we really have an embarrassing matter. I don't know whether to talk about it or not."
Feng Shaojun smiled slightly: "Since it's difficult, it's okay not to say anything."
Mu: "..."
Mu was choked to silence and very embarrassed.
Qiu Rou finally raised her head: "There are two days until my haircut ceremony. On that day, I would like to invite my brother and sister-in-law to come and watch the ceremony together."
The most difficult thing to say was said by Qiu Rou. Mu had no choice but to continue speaking shamelessly: "It's a bit presumptuous for us to come today. In a girl's family, there is only one gift of hairpin ceremony in her life. Please take the Fourth Young Lady for Commander Shen's sake."
, I agreed this time."
Sure enough, it was for the gift of haircut.
Thinking about it, Qiu Rou moved Qiu Mingcheng for this reason and specifically asked her daughter-in-law Mu to accompany her.
Anyway, Qiu Mingcheng has been treating Shen You well over the years. Quan should return the favor to Qiu Mingcheng.
Feng Shaojun thought for a moment and said slowly: "Okay, I will go to the Qiu family to watch the ceremony in two days."
Before Qiu Rou breathed out, Feng Shaojun said calmly: "However, Shen You is on duty in the palace and it is inconvenient to ask for leave. I'm afraid he won't be able to go."
But what I want is for Shen You to go!
Mother Jiang repeatedly told her that Shen You must show up at her haircut ceremony. Only in this way can she be considered glorious. Then she can have a good marriage in the future... Furthermore, in front of everyone, Shen You
You can't deny your mother-in-law.
Qiu Rou was anxious and blurted out: "I am his biological sister. Can't he ask for leave even if I give my haircut ceremony?"
Feng Shaojun's smile did not diminish: "No."
Qiu Rou: "..."
Qiu Rou's head started to heat up and she wanted to speak. Mu Shi grabbed Qiu Rou's arm suddenly. Qiu Rou felt the pain suddenly and let out an exclamation. Mu Shi pretended not to hear and said quickly: "Since the fourth young lady agreed, let's
It couldn't be better. We won't disturb you any more and say goodbye first."
After saying that, he dragged Qiu Rou away.
This Mu family finally knows what's interesting.
Feng Shaojun ordered Zheng's mother to send their sister-in-law out of the house, then got up and went back to the inner room. After hearing the whole story, Mrs. Xu also frowned: "How can this Qiu Rou have the nerve to come to the door!"
Feng Shaojun twitched his lips sarcastically: "Qiu Rou has no scheming ideas and listens to Jiang's words. Jiang must be the instigator behind this matter. I will go to Qiu's house in two days to see what Jiang wants to do.
Yao Mozi."
Mrs. Xu knew her granddaughter very well and was not afraid of her suffering. She only told her, "Don't go too far. It's better to save some face for Shen You."
Feng Shaojun agreed casually.
…
On this side, Mrs. Mu and Aunt Qiu Rou got on the carriage.
Qiu Rou rubbed her arms, sparks flashing in her eyes: "I haven't finished speaking just now, why did you drag me away?"
Mu was not polite, and sneered back: "If I don't hold you back, why should I make you embarrassed? Your surname is Qiu, and you are a girl from the Qiu family. You are shameless, what else do I, the wife of the Qiu family, want!" "
Qiu Rou blushed with anger.
"Why, do you think my words are unpleasant?" Mrs. Mu said sharply: "There are even worse things that I haven't mentioned yet. Your surname is Qiu, and Shen You's surname is Shen. In the past many years, you have ignored Shen You. Now you want to take advantage of it. Well, I called you eldest brother and sister-in-law. Why do you have such a face!"
Qiu Rou's face turned redder and redder, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Mu Shi let out a sigh of relief and said with a straight face: "What are you planning, can't you pretend that others can't tell? Feng Shaojun is not someone to be trifled with. I would like to advise you to be honest and calm. Don't come here. If something unpleasant happens, it’s you who will make a fool of yourself!"
Qiu Rou wiped her eyes with her sleeve and stubbornly turned her head to the side.
I made it clear and didn't hear a word.
Mrs. Mu didn't bother to say anything anymore, she just felt extremely miserable. Why did she end up with such a careless little girl?
After returning home, Qiu Rou immediately went to Jiang's courtyard.
Because Qiu Rou and the Hairpin Ceremony were about to come, it was inconvenient for Qiu Mingcheng to keep Jiang in prison. These days, if Qiu Rou wanted to see Jiang, the woman guarding the courtyard door would have to unlock it and let Qiu Rou in.
"Mother," Qiu Rou hurriedly rushed to Jiang.
Mr. Jiang has been active recently, his appetite has improved, and his cheeks are not so thin. At this time, his eyes shined: "How is it? Did Feng Shaojun agree?"
Qiu Rou nodded: "I said a few harsh words, but Ying agreed. However, she said that the eldest brother has to work in the palace and it is inconvenient to take leave."
Jiang's eyes flashed with anger, but there was nothing he could do. After a while, he said: "If Shen You doesn't come, it will be the same if Feng Shaojun comes. No matter what, you are Shen You's biological sister, and they can't help but deny you."
Qiu Rou was stubborn in front of Mu, but she was actually worried and had no confidence. She whispered: "Mom, I'm a little scared. What if Feng Shaojun doesn't buy it and embarrasses our mother and daughter in the future?"
Jiang gritted her teeth and said, "There will be many guests. In front of everyone, I don't believe that she can contradict me, my mother-in-law, in public."
…
Two days later, the Qiu family held a hairpin ceremony for the second girl who was waiting to be given birth.
Qiu Mingcheng has been the commander of the Beicheng Army and Horses Division for more than ten years, and he has many colleagues who he has good relationships with on weekdays. In addition to his in-laws and old friends, there are quite a lot of guests here today.
Mrs. Qiu, who had suffered a stroke, had been lying on the couch for several years, occasionally being helped to move around a few steps. Today she even cleaned up, changed into new clothes, and let the maids support her to the inner hall.
Mr. Jiang, who rarely appeared in public, felt his heart skip a beat when he saw Mrs. Qiu.
