Mrs. Zhao sighed softly, "That's all, don't blame me for not acting carefully."
"Mom just takes care of things." After Shen Nanxun finished speaking, he said to Cuizhi, "Go to Wanshuang Garden and ask the second wife to come."
"We are not fighting for this face. This is also Sister Zhen's face. This is the first thing we do for her. It is also a great blessing passed down from our ancestors. It must be done." said Zhao.
"It all depends on mother's arrangements." Shen Nanxun said respectfully.
Before this, Shen Nanxun actually felt that it didn't matter whether he did it or not, but after hearing what Zhao said, it was indeed this etiquette.
The three rites of baptism are: one is to wash away filth and eliminate disasters, and the other is to pray for good fortune and a smooth life.
This is not only the blessing of the elders for the child, but also the face of the mother and the child.
If we don't do this, I'm afraid that within three days, the whole capital will feel that the Prince of Dingxi County doesn't like my sister, and it will be difficult for my sister to move around in the circle of nobles in the future.
The second wife came very quickly, with a smile on her face.
"My dear wife, I have to take a trip," said Zhao.
The second wife, Mrs. Liu, held Mrs. Zhao's hand and said, "My aunt is out of town. I should have come to see you. I was just afraid of delaying the beauty of my sister-in-law and aunt's family, and being in your eyes."
"The second lady is joking. This visit will bring trouble to the second lady."
"Auntie, don't say that. In the past, my mother-in-law's family came here every three days, and my sister-in-law took care of me. Now it's time for me to repay my sister-in-law."
"It's perfect for you sisters-in-law to be intimate and warm. I came to you because I wanted to discuss the three baptisms with you."
Mrs. Liu said repeatedly: "Auntie, don't talk about discussing it. Just tell me directly. I don't know how to arrange things. I can barely get by with my work."
"I won't be polite to you. Let's just do the three baptisms. Just invite a few people you're close to, and we'll invite the rest after the month is over."
Mrs. Liu nodded, "That's right. Sister, I have to do something about my good life."
"I don't know the people who are close to the county prince's house when I first came here. They still need to be taken care of by the second lady. In addition, I would like to invite my nephew's family."
Mrs. Liu nodded, "I know this. Madam Zhao's wife often visits the house."
Mrs. Liu then said: "I have to give my mother's family a chance to win the prize for my sister."
Mrs. Zhao patted Mrs. Liu's hand holding hers, "I'm going to invite you, I'm going to invite you. If my wife doesn't have anything important to do, I'll just come here to kill the day."
"Knowing that aunt is here, my mother will come to talk to aunt even if she has something to do."
Mrs. Zhao unconsciously glanced at Mrs. Liu again, and she was indeed Linglong. Fortunately, such a person had no intention of running the family, otherwise she might not be able to please her idiot.
"Aunt, do you have any explanation? If there is no one yet, I will arrange for someone to deliver the post first. I will also send a copy to my uncle's house. I'm afraid that my aunt won't be able to come to the house, and I can't even get out of bed during the Dragon Boat Festival family dinner."
"But he is seriously ill?" asked Ms. Zhao.
Mr. Liu shook his head, "It's not serious at all. It's because of the severe illness. I feel weak even after walking for a few steps. I feel dizzy and can't stand. If I sit still, I'll be fine again."
"Let's have a good rest. I am a junior. I don't want to compete with her for gifts, but my posts have to be delivered."
"Don't worry, aunt, we can't go wrong with this."
Lu Fenghe listened languidly, remembering the post he sent earlier, "Liniang, don't forget to send the post to Sister Liu."
Mrs. Liu's single name is "Li". In terms of age, she is about the same age as Lu Fenghe. But when she got married and followed her husband, Mrs. Liu had to call her "Sister-in-law Lu Fenghe", so Lu Fenghe always called Mrs. Liu by her first name.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry. My sister loves to join in the fun. Even if I don't send her a post, she will get into my mother's car and follow me."
"Sister Liu is thinking about her, and our sister also wants to treat our aunt to a banquet." Lu Fenghe was talking about the congratulatory gift sent by Sister Liu in the morning.
After Lu Fenghe finished speaking, he added: "Mom, Guo Shibo's eldest son sent a greeting card this morning, saying that he would be visiting the house tomorrow. Why don't you just send me a greeting card and ask Aunt Guo to come and talk to you."
Guo Weichang's old wife is also from Jiangnan, and is the daughter of the Cheng family in Jinling. She is also a cousin to Mrs. Lu San, Lu Fenghe's aunt, and she and Mrs. Zhao can be considered close friends.
Mrs. Zhao agreed, "Since I sent you the greeting card, I'll invite you and let your fourth brother and ninth brother make a trip."
Seeing that she had nothing to explain, Ms. Liu was about to leave, "I don't have a schedule. I'll make arrangements first. I'm afraid I'll forget things again if I delay."
Ms. Zhao didn't stay either, "You can go on your own and don't bother me."
"If Auntie thinks of unfinished business, she can order someone to look for me."
"I know, thank you for your hard work."
Mrs. Liu stood up and said, "Sister-in-law used to have a small kitchen. Recently, there are so many people that the small kitchen may be too busy. I'll make some food from the big kitchen and bring it to you."
Lu Fenghe pulled Liu's hand and said, "You always do everything well."
"Get some rest now. Don't worry about auntie coming. Just take good care of yourself and don't worry about anything else."
Lu Fenghe agreed, "It's the same sentence every time, I remember it."
"That's all, if anyone wants to dislike you, I'll leave first."
As soon as Mrs. Liu left, Mrs. Zhao stopped talking.
Lu Fenghe asked, "What do you want to say?"
In the end, Ms. Zhao said nothing: "Your sister-in-law is right, don't worry about anything else, my mother and brothers are here."
Lu Fenghe nodded, "Well, mother, I miss you so much."
Mrs. Zhao nodded Lu Fenghe's forehead and said, "Chi'er, you are already a mother."
"It doesn't matter if I become a mother. My mother is already a grandmother, and she is not my grandmother's daughter yet."
"I can't help you. Please take a break. I've been talking for a long time."
Lu Fenghe shrank into the quilt as instructed, reached out with one hand to pull Zhao, closed his eyes, and did not let go of his hand at all until his breathing became steady.
Lu Fenghe was really tired. The moment she saw Zhao and Lu Silang, she felt that her tight string could finally relax.
She didn't have to worry about everything, and she didn't have to be careful about everything. Anyway, with her mother and brother here, and seeing the concerned eyes of her sisters-in-law, she always felt as if she was back in her boudoir, back in the days when she only wanted to be happy and have someone take care of everything else.
Mrs. Zhao also looked at her daughter intently. She hadn't seen her for three years. Her daughter's color was even brighter. When she got married, she was still like a flower. Now she is in full bloom. Even if she wears no clothes or make-up, her color will not be impaired at all.
My hair has grown much longer, and I haven't combed my eyebrows for a while. The ends of my eyebrows are a little messy but look more lively.
Zhao gently stroked Lu Fenghe's face bit by bit with her hand, as if this could re-image Lu Fenghe's appearance in her heart.
When Shen Nanxun stood by the screen and saw the scene beside the bed, he stepped out without saying a word and took away Brother Bao who had rested for a while and was about to find his mother.
"Let's go, follow dad to the front yard to play with my cousins."
Brother Bao only saw his grandmother and uncle at noon. He didn't know that his cousins were also here.
He has always envied Brother Feng and his two brothers who always have cousins coming over to play with them.
