Chapter 766: Why is it not normal?
The people in the room were fine. After hearing what Li Yun said, they were all quite calm.
Wang Guilan was panicking, "Oh, the magistrate's wife came to our Ye family in person, there's no reason for us to wait.
Don't let the magistrate's wife blame our Ye family for not knowing etiquette. Old family, let's go out and welcome them."
Zhao Baofeng was trembling with fear. How could she, an ordinary peasant woman, have the courage to chat face to face with the county magistrate's wife?
She looked at Zhang Juexia for help, but Zhang Juexia stopped Wang Guilan and said, "Grandma, you are old after all, so don't go out to greet her.
The magistrate's wife won't blame you."
"It's the magistrate's wife's generosity that people don't blame us. We must not lose our manners."
Wang Guilan glared at Zhao Baofeng, complaining that she was useless, "Since the old lady is unwilling, then I, an old woman, will go out and take a look alone.
As for the third brother, he has disappeared to who knows where in the past while. It is really worrying."
Wang Guilan smiled apologetically to everyone in the room, "You guys chat first, I'll go out and take a look."
After Wang Guilan left, Zhao Baofeng knew she couldn't talk to the people in the room. "Juexia, I'll go to the kitchen and take a look."
Zhang Juexia noticed Zhao Baofeng's discomfort and said, "Aunt, the servants are busy in the kitchen. Why don't you and your sister-in-law go to Zuixianlou?"
As for our own relatives, I'll have to trouble my aunt and sister-in-law to take care of them."
"We are all family, there is no need to worry about it."
Ye Suyun and her mother-in-law, as well as Aunt Wang and Cui'er, also left with Zhao Baofeng.
After Cui Er married Li Le, the housekeeper's wife became even more arrogant. "Boss, my mother and I are also going to Zuixianlou. If there is any work that the masters are too busy to handle, we will lend a hand."
"Okay then. Thank you for your help."
"Boss, you are too polite."
Only Qian Yulin and Shopkeeper Yao were left in the room. Shopkeeper Yao started to talk more, "Song Yu wanted to come with us, but there was a batch of work that was needed urgently in the workshop, so she couldn't come with us.
She asked me to say hello to you!"
"I've already received her gift. Isn't it a little late?"
"Then go back and find her."
"When Ben'er grows up a little bit, we'll go back."
Shopkeeper Yao came forward to take a look at Ye Ben's appearance and said, "This child looks more like his father. It would be better if he took after our Jue Xia."
Qian Yulin also joined in the fun, "That's right."
Ye Ben was originally playing by himself with his eyes wide open, but when he saw someone playing with him, he grinned.
Shopkeeper Yao was extremely surprised, "Oh, this little guy is smiling at me!"
Qian Yulin also laughed, "He's just a little kid, and he knows how to smile at us.
Shopkeeper Yao, I think we shouldn't worry about the child's appearance. I think he should just take after his mother for his cleverness."
Mrs. Chen came in with the wife of County Magistrate Wu Qian, Song Miaoyin, and Wang Guilan and Pang Xiujuan followed cautiously behind.
As soon as Song Miaoyin entered the room, she said to Zhang Juexia, "Cousin, I'm here to see you."
"Hello, cousin!"
During the New Year holidays, Wu Qian and Song Miaoyin often came to Zhang Juexia's house to eat and drink.
The two people have known each other for a long time.
When Song Miaoyin saw Qian Yulin and Shopkeeper Yao in the room, she smiled and said, "Cousin, do you want to introduce yourself to me?"
Wang Guilan and Pang Xiujuan came forward first, "Juexia, please introduce your third aunt and me to the magistrate's wife first."
Song Miaoyin pointed to the chair in front of her, "Old Madam, Third Madam, didn't we introduce them just now?"
"Yes, yes! Our magistrate's wife is really beautiful!"
Pang Xiujuan echoed from the side.
After Wang Guilan sat down, she asked again without waiting for anyone else to speak, "Madam, I'm confused. Why do you call our Juexia cousin?"
Mrs. Chen hurriedly explained with a smile, "Old lady, it was my negligence. My master and I have adopted Jue Xia Dang as our goddaughter.
Miaoyin is my nephew's wife, so she should call Juexia her cousin."
Wang Guilan pretended to understand and nodded, "I see!"
Pang Xiujuan's brain was already spinning, but she knew clearly the relationship between her and Zhang Juexia, so she said directly, "If that's the case, then the Magistrate's wife, shouldn't you also call me Third Aunt?"
The room suddenly became quiet.
Everyone silently picked up the teacup in front of them and drank tea.
Zhang Juexia gave Li Yun a look, and Li Yun immediately stepped forward to help Wang Guilan up. "Old Madam, the First Madam just sent a message saying that Zuixianlou is too busy to handle it, and asked you and the Third Madam to go over and take care of it!"
Without saying anything, Li Yun picked up Wang Guilan and walked out. Her other hand was not idle either, and she also pulled Pang Xiujuan.
Wang Guilan is fine, after all, she likes the hustle and bustle.
Pang Xiujuan was a little unwilling, "No, the magistrate's wife hasn't replied to me yet!"
Wang Guilan glared at Pang Xiujuan and said, "Look at what you just said, you clueless idiot.
How could you let the magistrate's wife call you Third Aunt?"
"I don't want to either. If we follow Bei Xiu's wife's side, she would have to call me Third Aunt."
Wang Guilan was so angry at Pang Xiujuan that she almost fainted.
Today she discovered that bringing Pang Xiujuan here was a mistake.
Now, Wang Guilan is becoming more and more displeased with Pang Xiujuan.
She felt that the experience of her third son was increasingly related to Pang Xiujuan.
"Alright, stop yelling. You're such an unruly thing. You've embarrassed Bei Xiu and his wife. I'll be the first one to not forgive you."
Pang Xiujuan glared at Wang Guilan in dissatisfaction.
Then, Pang Xiujuan thought again, this is the county town, not Yejia Village, why should she be afraid of this old woman, she immediately retorted, "Why are you pretending? Let me tell you, I'm here at my son's house.
Even if others call you an old lady, I won’t indulge you. Don’t act like an old lady in front of me. I won’t buy it.
Besides, the reason I got close to the magistrate's wife was because of your disappointing son.
If it weren't for your disappointing son, who was so rich, I would have been living a life of luxury with him. Why would I have to endure your wrath?"
Wang Guilan was so angry that her hands were shaking as she pointed at Pang Xiujuan, "You..."
Pang Xiujuan took her fingers away directly and said, "Don't talk about yours and mine. After all, the entire Ye family depends on my son.
I tell you, if you really make me angry, I will not stay in Yejia Village to serve your useless son.
Anyway, my son is very capable. If I ask him to support me, he will definitely not object.
But your disappointing son will have to be served by an old woman like you."
Li Yun shook his head secretly. Before his master passed the imperial examination, he thought these two people were quite normal.
Why are one or two of them abnormal?
