Mrs. Tang was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Man Bao. She didn't have any objections. She didn't know whether Magistrate Tang would agree...
Man Bao stared slightly, looked at Mrs. Tang with his big eyes, and then shook his head.
When the lady who made the proposal saw it, she couldn't help but ask, "Why, Mrs. Zhou is still unwilling?"
Man Bao said: "The age is inappropriate. Mrs. Tang is too young. My sister-in-law is older than you, and..."
Seeing her confused look, Mrs. Tang smiled and asked, "And what?"
"Moreover, if I accept you as my godmother, wouldn't Magistrate Tang be my godfather? What should I call Magistrate Yang when I return to the county and see him later?"
Man Bao felt that that lowered his seniority too low, so he shook his head repeatedly, "Forget it, Mrs. Tang, if you like me, come and play with me more in the future. You can't give birth to a son or a daughter."
It depends on luck, it probably just depends on luck, if it doesn't work, you can only have a few more children, and you will always have a daughter if you have more children."
Man Bao also used her mother as an example, "Look at my mother, she gave birth to eight children, only my eldest sister and I are girls, and the other six are brothers, so if you have more children, you can always have girls."
"
Mrs. Tang was stunned for a while when she heard this. Then she burst into laughter and said, "Oh, why are you so cute? That's just a joke. If Mrs. Tang wants a daughter, she should give Magistrate Tang more time."
A person can always be born in a room."
Mrs. Tang smiled slightly.
Man Bao opened her mouth in shock. She was no longer a child. She had also secretly flipped through the notebooks that Bai Erlang had peeped at. In addition, Zhou Lijun always heard some gossip from the outside. She wanted to hear this.
It’s hard even if you don’t understand.
It was precisely because she understood it that she couldn't control the expression on her face.
It turns out that all the ladies outside are as strange as what is written in the storybook?
You actually put women into your husband's house just to raise a girl?
But……
Man Bao couldn't help but look at Mrs. Tang and whispered: "Mrs. Tang, if you really like to see beautiful little girls, you might as well choose one from the family to raise. This... is just to raise a beautiful girl.
It feels weird to stuff women into County Magistrate Tang’s place.”
Everyone:......
The lady's face was slightly stiff.
But Mrs. Tang laughed and said happily: "Mrs. Song is joking with you, why do you kid take it seriously?"
Mrs. Liu pulled Manbao to her side, nodded her forehead and said with a smile: "How old are you? The ladies are just teasing you. I don't know where you heard these words.
Okay, go and sit at the table and eat."
But Mrs. Tang said: "Old madam, let her sit with us. I really like this child."
Mrs. Zuo immediately smiled and said: "That's a good feeling. I think the child likes it too. Come, please add another chair next to Mrs. Tang."
Although Magistrate Tang was only a sixth-grade magistrate, no one present knew that he was from a well-known family and that he was also young and promising.
Mrs. Tang's own background was good, and Mrs. Zuo was happy to please her.
Man Bao's chair was placed between Mrs. Tang and Mrs. Liu. She was not timid, and sat down gracefully after bowing.
When the banquet began, no matter what everyone thought in their hearts, everyone looked happy.
The Bai family held such a housewarming party in order to integrate into Yizhou City. If there are no accidents, Bai Yu will work in Yizhou City in the next ten years or even longer.
He is not young, and Yuanwai Sanqi Shilang is a very leisurely military position. Promotion is very difficult. He may stay in Yizhou City for the rest of his life.
That's why he invited Bai Li, who had already branched off, to come. If he wanted to live in Yizhou City permanently in the future, he would naturally have closer ties with the people in this area, the better.
Therefore, they spent so much time repairing the house and preparing for the banquet, just to enter the upper class of Yizhou City as decently as possible.
So the Bai Yu family was the least willing to have anything unpleasant happen today. Fortunately, the guests were fairly well-informed. Even if they were rude when they came and went, they all came to terms with it in the end and maintained their appearance.
of peace.
After the banquet, Mrs. Zuo took everyone to visit the garden again, listened to the children reading and reciting poems, and then they dispersed.
Mrs. Zuo sent all the distinguished guests to the door, and then she had time to talk to Mrs. Liu, "I'm so busy today, I really didn't provide good hospitality..."
"Sister-in-law, you're welcome. What do we say as a family?" Mrs. Liu said with a smile: "And I think my nephew-in-law and two grand-nieces are doing a good job. There are so many people here today and they are so mixed.
Is it still done safely?"
Today's banquet ended beautifully, so the smile on Mrs. Zuo's face became more sincere.
Bai Yu also sent Bai Li and others out, and everyone said goodbye and left.
Bai Li personally helped Mrs. Liu get into the car, and then went to the back.
Mrs. Zuo and Bai Yu thought a little more when they saw their two families being so affectionate. However, before they had time to speak, the Qiao family also went out to say goodbye.
The mother and son immediately raised their smiles and sent them out again.
After everyone left, Bai Yu helped Mrs. Zuo back to the main room.
Mrs. Zuo asked, "How is it? Is the front yard going well today?"
"Yes, Magistrate Tang was busy, so he only had a cup of tea and then left. Everyone else stayed. I think my cousin is familiar with several people, and he seems to know a lot of people in Yizhou City."
Mrs. Zuo said: "Your aunt in the fourth room is even more amazing. She can talk to the Ji family. Her grandson is not only a student in Class A of the government school, but he can also save the life of the young master of the Ji family."
here I am."
After a pause, he added: "The little girl following her can still talk to Mrs. Tang. It seems that I made the right post in the first place."
Bai Yu smiled and said, "Mom is still thoughtful."
Mrs. Zuo smiled and shook her head slightly, "If your aunt hadn't mentioned it more, I wouldn't have known that the fourth bedroom of the old house had also been moved to Jiannan Road."
Having said this, she paused again, shook her head and said: "That person of your aunt... forget it, you and Bai Li will have more contact with each other in the future. We are of the same race, and our relationship is already closer than that of other families. That's why you saw it."
, their two families have a good relationship."
Mrs. Zuo said: "Although the Sifang and Baili branches are a little far apart, they have always been in close contact. You can see that they moved out of Longzhou and came to Luojiang County to join Baili. The Sifang branch is also
Don't underestimate him, that kid Bai Shan was admitted to a private school at the age of twelve, and this alone is many times better than Ling'er and the others."
"But you don't have to worry here. Mom will take care of it for you. Tomorrow I will take your wife and the others to Huanxi Street to see them."
