Chapter 376 Aunt asks for help (welfare plus updates)
Among the people who followed this time, even those who wanted to make a fuss couldn't.
Concubine Qiangui was busy taking care of the Queen Mother and Princess Mingruo, while He Changzai was distracted and wanted to solve Shen Canghai's matter.
The concubine Ming, who was severely disfigured and did not leave the house, was not excited at all when she heard the news of the emperor's arrival.
Not to mention Concubine Ying, who takes medicine every day to stabilize her mood.
Therefore, except for some laughter and laughter in the courtyard where the Queen Mother is located, the rest of Dongyuan is as lifeless as the stagnant water.
Concubine Yihuang didn't come, so naturally the third prince wouldn't come either.
She was worried that her child would not be under her nose, so she just sent twice as much ice to the third prince.
The second prince, on the other hand, was practicing riding and archery in the palace at the moment.
Although there is no autumn hunting this year, he has recently become addicted to riding and shooting.
Maybe it's because I was too weak before and didn't experience hearty happiness.
Once you experience it, it's hard not to like this feeling.
Fortunately, there was a racecourse in the palace, so the second prince would practice early in the morning every day.
As for coming back to rest at noon.
After getting up after a full sleep, I warmed up my books again.
He had such a good attitude that even the emperor nodded when he saw him, saying that he had the demeanor of a royal family.
And Lin Wanyi also cherished the time she could see the second prince every day.
Not only did he eat lunch and dinner every day, but he also chatted about interesting things after reading his books.
For example, a family is sitting in the middle of the yard.
Eating watermelon, looking at the stars, and listening to Lin Wanyi telling some fairy tales about the sky.
Happy and calm.
On this day, Lin Wanyi received a message that her mother and second aunt were coming to visit the palace.
Now that she is a noble concubine, her family members can come if they want.
So, not long after breakfast, people arrived.
I thought only my mother and second aunt were here, but my grandmother and eldest aunt also came with me.
The last time Lin Wanyi saw them was when her brother got married last year, so she felt sad again.
"Grandma, your spirit seems to be getting better and better, but is there a happy event coming?"
Lin Wanyi asked with a smile.
"Aren't the biggest happy events in the world now all in your sister-in-law's belly? No matter whether they are brothers or sisters, they are all our darlings."
"That's right."
Mrs. Dong also followed Yousun Wanshishi and smiled and talked.
She really has nothing to worry about now, so she looks younger than before.
The only thing is that I need to pay more attention to my daughter-in-law Feng's body, nothing else.
Now all I can think about is waiting to bring up my grandchildren.
On the other hand, my eldest aunt was a little hesitant to speak.
Lin Wanyi saw it and asked.
"Auntie, we are a family. If you have something to say, just say it and it will be okay."
Hearing this, the eldest aunt glanced at Mrs. Dong, seeming a little worried.
But when Mrs. Dong nodded, she spoke.
"It's like this. It's been several years since your cousin Qiulan got married and gave birth to a child. Now the eldest son, Brother Xi, is four years old. He has been a smart and lively good boy since he was a child. His father was originally a scholar, but in recent years, he has become a scholar. The exams are always unsatisfactory, so I have been staying at home. I failed in the imperial examination again this time, and I don’t know when I can move forward."
"But brother Xi's studies cannot be delayed. I thought, if you ask, can you find a better teacher for him? No matter how much money we have, our family can afford it! I just ask for it.
Brother Xi, learn more!"
"As you know, we are from a merchant family, so it is easy for me to make a hundred and eighty taels of silver, but it is a bit difficult to find a husband."
When Mrs. Dong finished saying this, everyone blushed.
After all, it was for his daughter who was married to a foreigner that he wanted to beg Lin Wanyi.
The eldest family of the Lin family and the Dong family have received some favor, but not to the point where they are given face by everyone.
What's more, among the in-laws they have made friends with now, the only one is the Feng family.
He also comes from a family of military commanders, so I really can't find anyone to solve the problem of studying.
After hearing what her aunt said, Lin Wanyi did not shirk.
He nodded and said.
"My niece doesn't know much about the situation outside the palace, but you can ask your godmother. Several sons in the fourth prince's house are all capable of literature and martial arts. They must have private schools. I'll ask my aunt to find out.
, if possible, I will definitely send Brother Xi there so that our family can have a handsome young man in the future!"
Hearing this, Mrs. Dong almost cried with joy.
If I can really go to the Fourth Prince's house to attend a private school, I'm afraid my future will be brighter.
When I thought of this, I couldn't help but kneel down to thank Lin Wanyi.
But he was helped up by Lin Wanyi.
"My eldest aunt has hurt my niece. Now that the door is closed, we are just doing family rituals. There is no need for this."
"Okay, okay, before I came here, I was afraid that it would be difficult for my wife to open my mouth, but as a grandmother, I can't ignore Brother Xi's future, so..."
Mrs. Dong is anxious, afraid of this and that.
Lin Wanyi saw it and comforted him.
"Didn't I just say that we are a family? Doesn't my cousin's son also want to call me cousin?"
"Yes, yes, that's what I said!"
Not everyone is lucky enough to have a royal concubine as a cousin.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Dong was so happy that she wanted to rush to her daughter's home immediately to tell her the good news.
Seeing that the eldest daughter-in-law's problem was solved, Mrs. Dong was also happy.
Then we talked about another happy event.
"In a few days, the empress will be able to eat wedding candies again."
"Oh? What should I say?"
Then Madam Dong smiled and replied.
"The marriage of Qiuyue's child has been decided. We will be engaged in September and get married in April next year. She will be over seventeen by then, so it is just right."
"Cousin Qiuyue is engaged? When did it happen? Which house did it go to?"
Lin Wanyi asked a series of questions, and everyone was curious.
So Dong smiled and said.
"You also know this person."
"I know?"
Lin Wanyi frowned, thought about it, suddenly thought of someone, and asked curiously.
"Could he be the grandson of Doctor Dou's family?"
"That's right! It's the Dou family."
Since Lin Wanyi entered the palace, the Dou family has become more connected with the Dong family.
In the past, only the uncles of the Dong family and the Dou family saw each other frequently on official business, but now the two families have become as close as one family because of their upcoming marriage.
The Dou family has been a Qingliu family for generations and has been practicing medicine for three generations.
It comes from family studies.
With a background in making medicinal materials from the Dong family, and now managing Huimin Pharmacy, they are a perfect match.
Originally, in terms of background and origin, the Dong family was considered superior to the Dou family.
