There were only ten peaches in total, and the two of them divided them up for a long time. Finally, reluctantly, they kept two and gave away the remaining eight.
Even so, if we calculate carefully, it is still not enough.
Cao Feng was also willing to love his wife. He knew that the Zheng family also had an elderly grandmother, so he thought of sending two to the Zheng family.
In the end, the two people who had a headache decided not to think about it anymore and went straight to bed.
Nothing can compare to a wedding night.
On the second day, the new daughter-in-law served tea, and Dong Nuan, as a younger sister, naturally had to go there.
The elders gave various red envelope gifts to the new daughter-in-law. As a younger sister, Dong Nuan needed gifts from her new sister-in-law.
How much does it mean?
Mrs. Zheng is not a stingy person, and her family is not bad, so she prepared hairpins for her unmarried sisters, with different styles, but they are all made of pure gold and gems.
Dong Nuan is a peach blossom with a very beautiful shape. After reading Dong Nuan, I felt that it was necessary to let Dong Wu come to the city for a while. If she still wants to do handicrafts, it would still be helpful to improve her by watching more.
Benefits.
Of course, if she only wanted to take care of Zhuangzi, then it would be a good idea to stay with Zhuangzi.
Naturally, Dong Sanchun and Dong Wu came to attend the wedding yesterday, but they went back after breakfast early this morning.
In winter, there is not much work in the village, but the two of them can't stay idle.
There was no need for Dong Nuan to remind him, the two of them were already walking away from each other in the city.
After the new daughter-in-law served tea, everyone dispersed, each busy with his own business.
Cao Feng has a few days off, and after waiting to return home, he has to go back to the academy.
However, for the two of them, the most important thing now is...
Share the peaches.
There are few peaches, so not many are given to each house or courtyard.
This is also something that can't be helped.
Moreover, two were sent to the Zheng Mansion.
I really couldn't bring out any more, so I could only give two as a gift to my grandmother.
As for Zheng's mother, uncles and so on, we can only wait until later.
Even so, the Zheng Mansion was also very surprised.
You know, there are really not many fruits in winter. This is because the winter is warm this year, so they can still stock up on some apples and pears, which are easy to spoil if they are not stored well.
Then there are the oranges from far south, but due to traffic reasons, they are not always available.
Therefore, Mrs. Zheng was very surprised to have a peach.
Soon, His Majesty also knew about the peach.
Of course, he didn't know it from the mouth of the courtiers, but from the concubine Rong.
Concubine Rong is still pregnant, so she must have prepared these things for winter warmth.
The wedding gift prepared for Cao Feng also did not forget the eldest sister in the palace.
I picked ten good ones and sent them to the palace for the other party to eat slowly.
The other party is now close to giving birth, but she is in good health. Although she is heavy, she is not too uncomfortable.
If His Majesty is not too busy, he will almost always find time to visit Concubine Rong.
So, on the evening of the second day of Cao Feng's wedding, his majesty came to the Rong concubine palace and saw the big, juicy peaches on the table.
Seeing Taozi, His Majesty was speechless for a moment.
After a long time, he asked in a low voice: "Did Zhu Xin give it to you?"
"Yes." Concubine Rong asked and responded with a smile.
After the morning sickness was gone, her appetite improved a lot, but such fresh fruit was rare.
As soon as Dong Nuan was delivered here, she ate the whole one.
Of course, she didn't think about eating it herself. She knew that His Majesty would probably come over today, so she prepared it early in the morning.
Your Majesty naturally likes it too.
Fresh fruits, and fruits that are very rare in winter, who doesn’t like them?
His Majesty pretended to be reserved and ate the whole thing before nodding with satisfaction: "Princess Zhuxin's fruit-growing skills are truly outstanding."
The fruits in summer are sweet, and the fruits in winter are also sweet.
Your Majesty was very satisfied with the meal.
Seeing that Dong Nuan's birthday was approaching, His Majesty thought that his gift could not be too small.
At the beginning, I prepared some jewelry fabrics and so on.
These are all customary rewards.
But, looking at the peach now, the emperor felt that he might be able to prepare it a little thicker.
I don’t know how many peaches are left. Can I get some more?
He ate really well.
The emperor thought in his mind that Concubine Rong was not idle either.
Although she likes to eat, she has not forgotten the etiquette.
Fortunately, there are not many high-ranking concubines in the harem now, just the queen plus three concubines, and then the concubines.
There are not many peaches, so I have to save some.
So, forget about the concubines, we will talk about anything else later.
The queen divided two, the three concubines each had one, and the remaining six were kept for themselves to eat with His Majesty.
The queen and the others were quite pleasantly surprised.
Then, all the rewards were sent to the concubine's palace.
Concubine Rong picked out a few items and packed the rest back to the house, saying they were for winter warmth.
Dong Nuan naturally knew that this was probably a return gift from His Majesty or the Concubine to Concubine Rong. The gift in return was naturally peaches, and she accepted it generously without being pretentious.
The freshness period of peaches is only a few days, and it is impossible for there to be too many peaches on one tree. After all, they are really big.
There weren't too many of them, almost all of them were given as gifts by Dong Nuan.
The people who received the gifts also returned some in varying degrees.
In a blink of an eye, the day of Dong Nuan’s birthday has arrived.
December 20th.
The Cao Mansion said it would be done for her, and they did not object during winter, spring and winter.
Originally, even if the Cao Mansion didn't handle it, they would still do it.
Now that the Cao Mansion is willing to take the initiative, they can just follow behind.
After all, Dong Sanchun also understood that his status was insufficient, so he didn't know if he would be able to support this banquet if he really held it.
It's okay to use the light of Cao Mansion.
Because the New Year is approaching, all governments are actually quite busy.
Dongnuan is young and doesn't think about big things.
Furthermore, she is also married, so she doesn't need to go through things like a birthday party, and she can help herself find a husband by the way.
So, the relatives at home sat together and had some fun.
Dong Nuan specially left some peaches, not many in number, about twenty.
On my birthday, there were so many people here that I couldn’t possibly have one, so I cut the peach into four pieces.
Two peaches on the table equals eight pieces, and everyone can taste them.
Some people have eaten well and want to come to Dongnuan to buy some.
"It's just a tree. It's gone after eating. I gave some away before, and the rest are just the ones on the table." Dong Nuan explained with a smile.
As soon as everyone heard this, they knew that there was no chance. Otherwise, they were all real relatives and there was no need to hide them.
On the day of Dong Nuan’s birthday, I received a lot of gifts.
Hanjiang Tower only came back in the evening.
Of course, I also brought gifts with me.
He went out to pick it up at noon, and when he came back in the evening, he couldn't wait to rush to the winter warm house.
After finishing the ceremony at Cao's house, Dong Nuan returned to the Princess's Mansion with large and small bags.
Hanjiang Tower naturally knew the news, so he went straight to the Princess's Mansion when he came back, instead of going to Cao Mansion or Han Mansion.
