Chapter 36 Cousin

Su Xin and Wanyue finished talking about business, sat around and ate snacks for a while, and then walked out of Xinuang Pavilion.

Not long after she left, Yu Zhi smiled softly on her back, "This concubine, Bai Jia of Jin, has been very diligent in fawning over my mistress recently."

When Wanyue heard what Yu Zhi said, she was secretly shocked. Su Xin walked around in her room, but Yu Zhi said she was being fawning. Wanyue then raised her eyebrows and looked at Yu Zhi, "Why do you think so?

If you are such a talkative person, be careful to stir up trouble."

Yuzhi seemed to have never seen Wanyue's eyes like this before, so she couldn't help but shrink back and cautiously replied: "I don't dare to talk too much in the future."

Seeing how cautious she was, Wanyue sighed and said nothing more.

After Yu Zhi exited the room, Grandma Wang stepped forward and said softly: "Miss, September 15th is my birthday. Are you going back to Zhang Mansion?"

"I will definitely go back to celebrate Amma's birthday. I will write a gift list right away and prepare all the birthday gifts for Amma in the next few days." Just do it, Wanyue said as she walked towards the desk and polished her ink.

Write down the gifts to be prepared.

After a while, Grandma Wang stared at the gift list written by Wanyue. The next second, she couldn't help but open her eyes wide with a surprised expression on her face.

On September 15th, because Yinqi was busy with official business, Wanyue had no choice but to return to Zhang Mansion with Grandma Wang and the congratulatory gifts she had prepared.

When entering the main hall of Zhang Mansion, Wanyue's mother-in-law, Tara, was already dressed up and sitting on the main seat. The other relatives who came to celebrate were sitting on the left and right sides. Seeing Wanyue enter, her status was lower than Wanyue's.

Everyone stood up and saluted Wanyue.

With a smile on her face, Wanyue returned the greetings to them one by one. Her movements were dignified and generous, and she was polite, without any hint of timidity, and with a hint of nobility. She was worthy of the etiquette rules taught by the royal family, which made the relatives in the room even more proud.

Feeling surprised or envious.

After the ceremony, Wanyue did not see Zhang Baozhu. She probably went to court and had not returned yet.

His eyes, Tara's, followed Wanyue's every move. Looking at his slender daughter, the corners of his mouth raised a smile. His daughter's manners were excellent and she already looked like a royal daughter-in-law.

At this moment, a young man's voice sounded from the door of the main hall.

"Cousin, you're back. I haven't seen you for a long time."

Wanyue turned around and stared at the past. She was a young man wearing a Qingni robe, slightly shorter than Mr. Beile. He had a pair of medium-sized eyes, and his face was like a full moon. Looking at her face, Wanyue could only see her.

It feels a bit familiar.

When she heard the young man call her cousin, Wanyue thought about it carefully. After a moment, her face showed some surprise, and then she regained her composure, "Thick hair?"

He, Tala Houfa, is Wanyue's cousin. In his previous life, he seemed to have obtained a post-style official position. Like Ama, he had empty ambitions and was influenced by the Suo'etu and Nalan Mingzhu factions, which affected his official position.

promotion.

However, Wanyue didn't have much contact with him in her previous life. In her impression, the only time she met her cousin was occasionally during Amma's birthday.

After resurrecting her life, she could think of ways to help her cousin and Amma rise higher in the officialdom.

He, Tala Houfa, saw that his cousin's face seemed a little suspicious, so he smiled and said, "My cousin is getting married and has forgotten that I am my cousin."

Seeing her cousin being so teasing, Wanyue was a little surprised. She smiled slightly and joked: "I didn't expect thick hair to be able to tease people. I must be very capable. It seems that I, my cousin, have to humbly ask for advice from my cousin."

After hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.

After Wanyue sat down, she turned her head and looked at Tara, Eniang's face. It seemed that Eniang's complexion had improved a lot. It was rare to see Eniang's rosy face. Wanyue was very satisfied.

After Zhang Baozhu returned home, Wanyue came to the study and handed him the gift list she prepared. Zhang Baozhu couldn't help but be very surprised. The long gift list made him hesitant to accept it.

When the banquet was about to begin, Tara saw that the father and daughter had not arrived at the main hall yet, so he hurried to the study to urge the two of them, but he saw that the two seemed to be worried about the gift list.

She stepped forward with a decent smile on her face and suggested to Zhang Baozhu: "Master, the expenses in the government this year are very large. In addition, there are daily visits between relatives and the dowry given when Yue'er got married.

, somewhat tight. Your annual salary is only eighty taels of silver. You have always been honest and honest, and you never accept the filial piety of the officials below. If we have the money sent by Yue'er, we can have a lot more money on hand.

.”

Zhang Baozhu thought about it for a while, and finally nodded. To maintain a family's expenses, his salary was indeed barely enough. Now, his married daughter can still send money back. Subconsciously, he thought that Wan

It's not easy to be married. With his daughter thinking about his family so much, he has to fulfill his duties even more in officialdom.

"Amma, you have always been honest and upright in the officialdom, but you should still pay attention to the Suo'etu and Nalan Mingzhu factions, and never join either of these two factions." After a while, Wanyue looked at the frowning person.

Zhang Baozhu reminded carefully.

When he heard the names of Suo'etu and Nalan Pearl, Zhang Baozhu was a little stunned, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.

"Yue'er, how do you know about the affairs of the court?"

"Amma, you have forgotten that Mr. Beile is also dealing with government affairs now. I know a little bit about the affairs of the court. Suo'etu is from the princelings and Nalan Mingzhu is from the eldest brother's party. These two factions are entangled.

Either faction is not a good thing, so it’s better for Amma to be more cautious.”

These are Wanyue's heartfelt advice. The struggle between the two factions in the previous life often caused turmoil in the court. As a result, many civil servants and military generals got involved in political struggles and ended up dying.

Wanyue's Ama worked conscientiously in her previous life, and although she stayed in the position of a fifth-grade civil servant for several years, she finally ended up in peace.

Zhang Baozhu scratched his head. This is exactly what he was doing now, but it was too difficult to get promoted. He couldn't help but sigh.

Seeing that the father and daughter had finally finished chatting, he, Tara, couldn't help but warned: "Master, the banquet is about to begin. You two should come to the main hall quickly."

"Come right now." Zhang Baozhu replied softly.

Wanyue hurriedly stretched out her hand and hugged Tara's arm tightly, the corners of her mouth raised, looking very happy.

Tara tightened the handkerchief in her hand, turned her head and lowered her eyes to look at Wanyue's belly and asked: "Yue'er, it's better to have a child as soon as possible, so that you can have someone to rely on. There are many women in Baylor House.

, but there is only one of the five Baylors."

The meaning was very clear, it was to ask Wanyue to give birth to a child as soon as possible so that she would have someone to rely on in the future.

"Mother, you are in good health now." Wanyue smiled at Tara and changed the subject.

"Much better." Tara nodded.

Zhang Baozhu walked in front of the mother and daughter, listening to the whispers of the mother and daughter, feeling very satisfied.

"You don't cough often anymore, do you?" Wanyue glanced sideways at E Niang and hurriedly asked.

"E Niang listened to your words and went to see a doctor. The cough has been cured. You must also listen to E Niang's words..."

Tara wanted to entrust him with something, but when he saw Yue'er's indifferent expression, he still held back his words.
