When it was getting dark, Zhao Sili, the patrol commander and commander of the troops, hurriedly walked into the house.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw my daughter-in-law holding her young son in her arms, sitting in the middle hall not knowing what to think. My daughter was busy in the kitchen wearing an apron.
Although the small courtyard is not big, the fragrance of the food is wafting around, making it extraordinarily warm.
"Master is back!" Mrs. Zhao put down her son, stood up and said with a smile, "You have been working hard for a day in the Yamen!"
"Daddy!" The younger son also smiled and rushed towards Zhao Sili.
"Don't fall!" Zhao Sili carefully picked up his son, who was as close to his heart as his eyeballs.
Entering the central hall, Zhao Sili asked, "Is there anyone coming from the palace?"
Mrs. Zhao sighed, "Master, you also know?"
Mei Liang was afraid that Zhao Ning'er would not take it seriously, and if something went wrong, it would anger the palace and bring bad luck to his family. So he made a special trip to the Military and Horse Department to convey Concubine Hui's wishes.
Mrs. Zhao added, "It's so good, what kind of plum blossoms do you want our daughter to enter the palace to admire? We and the empress can't beat each other with eight poles!"
For ordinary people, what others consider to be a great honor may not necessarily be a good thing. They live their lives behind closed doors, and living their own lives is better than anything else. They have no intention of currying favor with anyone or clinging to anyone, let alone how.
Get along with noble people.
"I'm also wondering. I went out to inquire about it this afternoon. Not only our daughter, but also the daughters of several prominent marquis and uncles in the capital, as well as the Prime Minister of Yingtian Mansion, are going!" Zhao Sili said.
"Oh, those are all ladies!" Ms. Zhao thought about it and suddenly exclaimed, "Master, shouldn't there be a talent show?" As she said this, she looked like she was about to cry, "Others are willing to cling to wealth, concubine.
I don't want to do it. Although we are a small family, our daughter is also our heart's treasure. Who can bear the thought of a good daughter being sent to the palace to serve others?"
"What are you thinking about?" Zhao Sili scolded, "If there is a draft, the twelve eunuchs in the palace will come directly to make the decision. What else can you say about Concubine Hui inviting people to enjoy the flowers?" (The Ming Dynasty also had a draft, but it was different from the Qing Dynasty's.
The Eight Banners Showgirls are different, and there is no popular science here)
"Then why are you looking for our daughter?" Mrs. Zhao covered her chest, "In terms of family status, we are not qualified. In terms of official position, you are a big official. You can't show favor to us, so why do you name our daughter?
On your head?"
"Father, mother, stop thinking about it!"
Zhao Ning'er quickly came out with a bowl of cabbage and tofu. After placing it on the table, she quickly blew her fingers.
Her eyes were like crescent moons and she said with a smile, "What the hell? Since I let my daughter go, I don't dare not to go! Once I go, my daughter will pretend to be a puppet, smile more and talk less, and after enjoying the flowers, she will go home.
.”
As he said that, he put the pair of chopsticks on the table, "Let's eat! Dad and brother are both hungry!"
"You're talking lightly, that's the palace, that's where the nobles stay, it's hard to say whether it's a blessing or a curse!" Mrs. Zhao said worriedly.
"My daughter thinks it's a good thing. The father-in-law who passed the message was very polite!" Zhao Ning'er brought out another plate of scrambled eggs and a fish. Then, there was rice and wine.
When the fish is placed in front of dad, he wants to drink.
Put scrambled eggs in front of your younger brother. He is a boy and wants to eat more.
In front of the two women, there was cabbage, tofu, and a plate of mustard dumplings with sesame oil.
Although the food is not sumptuous, it is passable.
This is how a small family lives. They don’t have delicacies from the mountains and seas, but they have reunion dinners every meal. Being together as a family and being harmonious is better than anything else.
"What my daughter said is true, don't think about it!" Zhao Sili sat down and said, "How can we guess the noble man's thoughts! Eighty percent of the time, they just asked my daughter to make up the number and then come back."
As he spoke, he poured himself some wine.
"Hey, that's all I can think of. People like us have no choice!" Mrs. Zhao also sat down, and the family was about to start eating.
Zhao Sili gave his son a piece of fish belly and asked, "My grandson, is he okay?"
"The doctor looked at it and said that there is a fire. You have to defeat the fire!" Mrs. Zhao said with a smile on her face when she talked about her grandson. "The master was right. The child's face was so sick that his face turned sallow, and he still wanted to
I’m waiting for you to take him fishing!”
"You brat!" Zhao Sili smiled and gave his wife another piece of fish back, "Are you good, uncle?"
"Busy!" Mrs. Zhao said, "I heard that I was transferred to the Ministry of Household Affairs to print stamps!"
The eldest daughter of the Zhao family married a ninth-grade young man from the Ministry of Finance, and her life was quite happy.
"It's better to be busy. The Household Department is a confidential government office. If you are not busy, the Shangguan will look down on you!" Zhao Sili turned the fish over and gave his daughter another big piece. "Be careful, this piece has thorns!"
"Dad!" Zhao Ning'er declined, "It's only a pound of fish in total, so why would you order some meat for me? You can keep it for drinking!"
Zhao Sili smiled and slurped the meat of the fish head and cheeks, "That's what your father likes!"
"Mom, sister!" The youngest son of the Zhao family pushed out the eggs, "You guys eat scrambled eggs!"
Everyone at the table smiled heartily. Zhao Ning'er dotingly touched her brother's head, her eyes turning into crescent moons as she smiled.
"My daughter will be sixteen in a blink of an eye!" Ms. Zhao said at the dinner table, "It's time to find her husband's family!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ning'er blushed with embarrassment and lowered her head to eat, not daring to raise her head.
Zhao Sili was eating a fish head and felt like it was stuck. He said dissatisfiedly, "Why are you so anxious? I want to stay as my daughter for two more years!"
"Two years?" Mrs. Zhao said, "That doesn't mean she's an old girl! Whose daughter gets married at that age? Isn't it a shame to say it out?"
Zhao Ning'er became more and more shy, her cheeks turning red.
Zhao Sili looked at his daughter and sighed, "My daughter is so good, I don't know which bastard will be cheaper in the future!" After saying that, he drank the glass of wine, his face full of resentment that his cabbage was about to be eaten by pigs.
At the same time, people in the palace were also eating.
The old man, Zhu Yuanzhang, was sitting cross-legged at the kang table. On the table were a bowl of milky white fresh fish soup, a few fried golden scallion pancakes, two or three plates of green mixed vegetables, and a trembling, crystal clear braised pork.
Meat.
Concubine Guo Hui accompanied me and served soup to the old man.
Today, the emperor did not have a meal at Fengtian Hall and came to her specifically. The old man had not been to the harem for a while, which made Concubine Hui very happy.
"Your Majesty, have some soup, I stewed it myself!"
The old man nodded, "Let's leave it here first!" He said, looking out the window, "Why doesn't the eldest grandson come?"
Then he said, "Pu Bucheng, go and see, why doesn't our eldest grandson come?" Then, holding the wine cup, he smiled at Guo Huifei and said, "My eldest grandson accompanies us to eat with us every day. If he is not here, we will really enjoy this meal."
Can’t eat it!”
Pu Bucheng came in quietly and said with some hesitation, "Your Majesty, please don't wait any longer!"
"What's wrong?" Zhu Yuanzhang stared.
Pu Bucheng swallowed his saliva and said carefully, "The emperor's grandson was detained in class by Academician Fang!"
