Throughout the winter, all the noise was about autumn and the expectation for next spring.
Jia Xia didn't have Qiu Wei, so he was far worse than the level he had participated in Chun Wei. On the other hand, Yang Geer, Qiu Wei lived up to expectations and came back with a Jie Yuan. Many people said that the emperor was a wise king, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to
That’s three yuan in a row!
The fourth master won three yuan in the first place, and now Brother Yang has also won the first yuan. If Chunwei can take the Huiyuan exam, he will basically win the top prize. This kid is quite modest and never socializes outside.
He only studied with the door closed, and occasionally came out to ask for advice. Lin Ruhai was already at home, and there was also the fourth master here. Because of the Spring Festival, he came more diligently. He often stayed to eat. Lin Yutong followed his previous routine.
I like it, make food for him, not to mention, look at him like that, he still likes to eat. Seeing that he eats well, it is snowing today, and I have to go back very late, seeing that he borrowed it from the fourth master.
There are so few books, but I hold them in my hands so much that I cherish them. I’m afraid I’ll still have to stay up late and study when I go back.
She put the large platter of braised meat and vegetables in a food box and took it back. This thing was put aside. It can be eaten as a snack, and it will not be so watery that it will splash on the book. She gave it to the plate.
There are small toothpicks inside, which is very convenient to eat, and it is not as dry as dried meat.
Brother Yang didn't refuse even a little bit of food and took it home.
Wen Tianfang happened to be there when he got home. He had just arrived for a while. Lin Ruhai was waiting for guests. He just said that he would leave if he was not free, but he didn't want Brother Yang to come back. He didn't have anything important to do, he just came over to take a look and see him.
Seeing these two siblings and seeing them doing well makes me feel relieved. This has become a habit.
When Brother Yang came back, the two uncles had to sit together. By the way, Brother Yang asked someone to boil the wine: "Go and get rid of the cold." After saying that, he rubbed his hands and put them on the charcoal basin: "Seriously, who
Mr. Jia really has some ingenious methods. In the field of investigating things, few people can match him."
Wen Tianfang couldn't help but prick up his ears. He had always paid close attention to this Master Jia.
Brother Yang didn't know that this was something the other party paid special attention to, so he just treated it as gossip and said: "To be honest, if I study, I like to go to their house. Especially in winter, the house is very warm."
There is also a warm place at home, but it is just one or two warm pavilions in a yard. I rest in the warm pavilion at night, but on weekdays I study and read, and I always feel that such a place is not good. The warm pavilions are generally small, and most of them are kangs.
It is upside down and crooked, and does not look like reading at all. In the eyes of today's scholars, reading must look like reading, and it is best to have a straight board. In the study rooms of wealthy families, there are usually two extra pots of fire.
It sounds like it's not cold, but it's not as cold as a house where you can come and go freely just by wearing a thin jacket. No matter what the weather is outside, it's as warm as ever inside. A house with a charcoal pot in it feels like
Not very nice anymore.
If you are a shallow person, you will definitely say that this family lives a luxurious life, especially since it is said that their house is so warm even for the servants. But people like Yang Geer realize that it is not that people live a luxurious life,
It’s people who have the ability to spend a small amount of money to accomplish big things.
Now that I talk about it, I have more praise for the fourth master in my words: "...Farming and mulberry trees are the foundation of the country. He promoted rice in Gyeonggi Province for generations. Many people couldn't bear to offend the old sage, so they kept silent.
But those people secretly thought that this Master Jia was trying to coax the old saint. The success of the one and a half acres of careful cultivation does not mean anything. They have written down the notes one by one. If it were this year
If they want to promote it, how can they refute it? Unexpectedly, they are cautious by nature and only built a farm in the capital to promote this matter. The farm has such a good harvest this year, but there is no indication that it will be promoted on a large scale next year.
I’m afraid I’ll have to try it again. This year there are more greenhouses there, so my brother-in-law will come with me to have a look when I have time..."
While talking, the wine was served.
Warm wine, paired with such a large basin of various kinds of marinated food, is simple but also full of flavor.
Wen Tianfang was about to agree to Brother Yang's words. He was also about to get in touch with Mr. Jia, who was like a stranger from outside the world. However, he didn't want to try to take a bite of braised food. He was stunned and asked directly: "Your sister
made?"
Brother Yang shook his head: "Sister, I'm afraid I've had an early break today, so I won't have time to cook." But he didn't want to tell the Jia family. After all, it was his cousin from the Yu family who cooked it for him. From the perspective of etiquette, he had no time to cook.
He is a cousin and a relative, so there is nothing wrong with eating like this. But the brother-in-law is different. It is best not to mention the female relatives. I will not say it here, and I have no intention of explaining it deliberately.
Wen Tianfang felt uneasy for no reason. He stuffed the braised food into his mouth one by one. It was this familiar taste that was unmistakable. Brother Yang said if it was not made at home, it was bought from outside.
.
So the next day, he asked people all over the capital to buy braised food and come back to try it. He didn't know exactly what he was looking for, but he just felt that he should look for it.
As a result, I could buy half a truckload of braised food before I found one with a very similar taste.
That is the braised meat sold in Yu’s shop. The taste is very similar, almost the same. The remaining differences can also be explained by the fact that the ingredients used at home are good, the seasonings are good, and they are fresher.
.I’m afraid that the ones sold in the shops are not as good as the others.
But the people of the Yu family have come into contact with it themselves, and they come in contact with it often, and they don't find anything different.
His heart became irritable for no reason, and then he thought that she relied on her pickle skills to support her younger brother. She might have learned these pickle recipes and stewed vegetable recipes from somewhere. Maybe this is the Yu family's stewed vegetable recipe.
The origin of the recipe is the same as the recipe she used at that time. It's just that she has been involved in it in this life, so she has almost no contact with it.
Then he started laughing again, not knowing what he was thinking about all day long.
But when I had some free time, I couldn't help but go to Yu's house and look for Yu Liang. When chatting, I started talking about it: "... I ate your braised food once in a while. It tasted very good."
Yu Liang didn't take it seriously, thinking that the words were just polite, so he said: "If you like the skills passed down by the old lady who served us back then, I will send people to deliver them to your house." He didn't mean to do this.
To be honest, he really thought that his sister's craftsmanship was learned from the old grandma back then. Now the grandma who served his sister is gone, and the grandma's uncle buried the person. But he sent a letter, and he called Xue
My shop helped me send money there.
Wen Tianfang also thought that Yu Liang would not tell lies about this kind of thing. Just like that, he missed it again by some strange combination of circumstances.
After coming out of Yu's house and getting on the carriage, he sent the boy over to buy some braised food. To be honest, this was not the only taste he missed.
Coincidentally, Shao Hua is about to give birth in the twelfth lunar month, and Lin Yutong has been going back to her parents' house almost every day recently, but she can't rest assured when she comes to have a look. Brother Yi was picked up by Lin Yutong, with a big belly and a kid who knew how to run around.
You don't need to ask to know how hard it is. It was the same today. She came in a carriage and just turned the corner. The curtain on the carriage moved. She looked out through the gap and saw Wen Tianfang's boy smiling from the braised food shop.
When she came out, she felt a slight thump in her heart. She didn't know whether it was because the boy wanted to eat it himself, or because Wen Tianfang had discovered something. She moved to the side, opened the curtain, and looked outside secretly. She saw that the boy was holding his hand.
Something was passed through the window of the carriage parked on the roadside. The curtains of the window were lifted, revealing Wen Tianfang's young and excessive face.
Wen Tianfang looked over as if he was feeling something. The two of them looked at each other for a moment, nodded to each other, and then moved away from each other.
Lin Yutong sighed, with a complicated look on his face. He knew in his heart that it was probably because of Brother Yang's braised dish.
But this man's stomach can remember the taste. He has met him three times, but he really can't recognize him.
But despite this, Lin Yutong still felt that in the future it would be better to take things out of the house and give them away less often. It was already like this, and it would be better not to recognize it than to recognize it. If you don't recognize it, this is the destiny of the two of them in this life.
Lin Yutong was so quiet about this matter that she didn't dare to let Fourth Master know that she almost made a mistake. After a few days, Wen Tianfang didn't come to test her. She thought, maybe she was overthinking it.
It doesn't relate to myself at all.
Okay! We can’t even let Fourth Master know about this.
On the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Shao Hua took action and gave birth to her and Yu Liang's second son, who was named Yu Zeyu.
They have two sons, which made Wang Xifeng's eyes turn red with envy: "You said this is the same for the wife who gave birth to a child. Doesn't this mean that the drought will kill the drought and the flood will die?"
Then he sighed to Lin Yutong: "In my whole life, there is no place where I am not better than others. Only this heir, why is it so difficult?"
Lin Yutong said: "Accumulate more virtue..."
"What a shame for you, are you trying to bully me with such unworthy words?" She laughed, "You sound exactly like the bastards from Qingxu Guan."
"Hurry up and shut up." Lin Yutong glared at her: "You just want to be happy with your mouth, why don't you think about how your baby bump became what it is now? How did the good-looking Baoyu lose its spirituality?
Yes? And that Ma Daopo, do you think those are all fake tricks? You must be a little in awe!"
Wang Xifeng stopped talking. After returning, she couldn't help but think about Lin Yutong's words and murmured in her heart. The wife also worshiped the Bodhisattva all day long, but she didn't see the Bodhisattva appear to bless the empress and Baoyu.
She said this to Jia Lian, and Jia Lian said to her: "What kind of sutra is your aunt reciting? There are so many gods and Buddhas in the sky that she can't tell what is true and what is false. She treats Bodhisattva with false intentions, and still expects Bodhisattva to protect her?"
"
"Quickly silence yourself." Wang Xifeng glanced at him: "I was so angry when I saw someone else giving birth to a baby. What do you think...should we..."
"A second wife? As long as you are happy with it, I will be happy with it." This is what Jia Lian really thinks Wang Xifeng means.
After saying this, he didn't see the other person speaking. He turned his face and looked over, and saw that his face was pink and frosty, and he was very angry.
Jia Lian hurriedly said: "I'm kidding you, why are you still angry? All the children are legitimate sons. It makes no sense for me to have one born from my aunt's belly. Let's not talk about others, let's talk about Baoyu and Brother Huan. One is a legitimate son, and the other is a legitimate son.
It's like the heaven has gone down to the earth. Even Baoyu is now a hundred times better than Brother Huan. I'm not stupid. Why don't I understand this? I won't talk about these small details, but I will only talk about the future title. Your Majesty
They all value their legitimate son so much, and I'm afraid that without a legitimate son to inherit the title, the title will not be passed down." He said this. He was trying to coax Wang Xifeng, but he didn't want to be convinced by himself. When he thought about it, it seemed that it was really possible. He couldn't help but think about it.
He brought it up: "We don't have a son, so it's still unknown whether the master can give us this title."
Seeing that he was serious, Wang Xifeng seemed a little anxious, so she took it seriously. But who was she, so that she could easily blame herself for not having a son? She immediately cried: "If you were at home wholeheartedly,
, I can’t conceive a son like this. Now that I’ve raised him for so many years, I’ve given up on housework. Could it be my fault that I can’t conceive? You’re out having fun and having some seeds, but I don’t know, they’re all cheap.
Which one? If you come back and do that, you won’t be able to do that. If you can’t do it, you’ll have to rely on the land..."
The more you say it, the more vulgar it becomes.
When Jia Lian was told by Wang Xifeng, he also murmured in his heart: "Is this really the reason?"
He was looking for the Fourth Master because he wanted to use the Fourth Master's name to see the imperial doctor. There were some imperial doctors that the Jia family could hire. There were some imperial doctors that the Jia family simply couldn't get access to. For example, the old sage
Who can hire the royal physician?
The great thing about this imperial doctor is that his patient, the old sage, is now at this age, and there are two young nobles who are pregnant one after another. It is doubtful whether the old sage can still fight with ease now.
You know, but if you can get a woman pregnant, it at least shows that you are a very capable person.
Fourth Master thought he had something serious to do, but it turned out it was for this.
He said: "He lives in the palace all the time, so you won't encounter him when he is free. I have heard him say that you really need to be self-disciplined. You don't need to ask a doctor about this. It's all in the medical books. Just ask any doctor and he will know it."
This is the truth. If you really want a son, you can rest for the first half of the year, and I will give you some pills, and you can take them slowly..."
There would be nothing better than asking for help with medicine, but after half a year, it was a bit overwhelming.
Even if you agree to it yourself, this tigress of your own cannot agree. If you don't take good care of her, you will cause trouble.
He also thought that he could just ask for more medicine to make up for it. He thought so in his heart, but did not mention it at all. Only one person agreed: "I must not let others work in vain."
It means giving a big gift.
A big gift is a big gift, and it just generates income.
Lin Yutong never expected that Fourth Master would ask him to prepare some yang-enhancing medicine, "Do you want to take it? Okay, okay! You can rest assured that the medicine I prepared will have no side effects at all."
Then Fourth Master looked at her strangely: "Do you think I need to take medicine?"
It’s not that I think it’s bad, but your subjective feelings are more important, right? If you feel that you are powerless to think about something, then it’s okay to eat.
The words were not spoken, but the meaning in his eyes was naked|naked|naked.
The Fourth Master entered the door and pushed him down on the couch: "Lin Yan Wang, take a good look at me, do I want to take medicine..."
Actually there is no need!
The two of them were in the study room, doing something for a long time during the day, and the child knocked on the door outside, so they tidied up and opened the door without shame.
Brother Yun looked at his father and his mother, then smiled happily and said, "Have you eaten Guoguo secretly?"
Look at my mother's mouth being red and swollen.
Lin Yutong touched her lips and couldn't figure out what the connection between eating Guoguo and red and swollen lips was.
The fourth master happily hugged his son and went to play.
After Lin Yutong went through practice and realized how important husband-wife harmony was to women, she acquiesced in Fourth Master's idea of making money in this unflattering way.
Jia Lian took a bottle of medicine and was very excited when he came back. He asked for ten bottles and gave him a thousand taels of silver as a gift.
Haha! There are as many men as there are in the world who love this thing.
You don’t have to predict it. After the New Year, making money will definitely be like sweeping leaves. Don’t make it too simple.
But don’t come forward on your own.
The fourth master was stunned to find out that the imperial doctor was willing to let him use his name, and he could vaguely mention whose recipe it was to prepare the medicine, and then just set up a shop to sell it.
Lin Yutong also asked Fourth Master: "How many percent of the share will be given?"
"What kind of person?" Fourth Master sneered: "Just provide him with free medicine."
Lin Yutong: "..." This old and dishonest imperial doctor.
Anyway, it was a very bad thing to do.
But the fourth master rolled his eyes at her: "Not many people know that the shop is related to us. Anyone who knows is afraid that they don't have this medicine."
Lin Yutong: "..." I am afraid that the nobles in the palace, who have many women to deal with, like this kind of medicine the most. She thought evilly, if this medicine is good, the harem will be harmonious.
But no, when they entered the palace during the Chinese New Year, the queen and even the ladies in the palaces were all glowing with rosy faces and eyes full of beauty. I guess everyone felt that they were being pampered.
As for me, who is responsible for bringing harmony to the entire harem, I'd better keep quiet.
When she went back, she told Fourth Master: "The medicine is good...yes...but everything must be done in moderation..."
The fourth master bit her and said: "I like to worry about my own thoughts." Don't people know this truth?
In short, it seems that the Fourth Master, who is rarely free at home, seems to be trying to replenish the enthusiasm of the past half year. During this period, cats often make noises at night. When he went to Jia's house to pay New Year's greetings, Wang Xifeng said: "Look at how you twist your waist and sway your hips now."
, like that!”
Twist your hips?
This is absolutely slander!
My mistress is all about dignity and grace. How could the charming and graceful virtues you mentioned be mine.
The two of them chatted for a long time, and then Mrs. Wang pulled her into talking privately. During the conversation, she asked about when her mother-in-law would be pregnant.
Don't ask me about this! I can't tell your mother-in-law to be pregnant, right?
She said: "Qian'er saw the empress in the palace, and she looked very good."
Mrs. Wang felt relieved, as the topic had not yet deepened, Aunt Xue came with Baochai, and Lin Yutong breathed a sigh of relief.
Aunt Xue basically spent time with Mrs. Wang, with a "I'm talking to you" attitude. Lin Yutong probably just came over, and she already knew about it. She didn't give Mrs. Wang any time to talk privately.
And what the Jia family could do was to ask Xue Baochai to follow the housekeeper. Nowadays, Aunt Xue and her daughter can enter and exit the house without any obstacles, and the news spread too fast, and they knew it in the blink of an eye.
Mrs. Wang had to agree, and she couldn't help but invite Lin Yutong: "...Twenty-one is a good day for me, dear girl. You have to come over on that day."
On the twenty-first day of the first lunar month of this year, Xue Baochai was fifteen years old.
Lin Yutong agreed, saying that it would come.
Getting haircut is a big day, and this year it’s time for the young lady to get haircut. She mentioned it to Princess Shun during the New Year greetings before, and wanted to invite her to be the guest of honor, and she agreed.
In short, this is a big day for women. Mrs. Wang personally said that she must attend it no matter what. Anyway, there is nothing special in the first month.
It is said that on this big day, the Xue family wanted to spend it at Jia's house, and Jia's mother gave out twenty taels. But what can a girl from a wealthy family do with hairpins, and what can twenty taels of silver do?
Of course, maybe the Xue family only wants to celebrate birthdays and haircut gifts first, so they won't rush through it yet.
Some families also have this situation. For example, when the family encounters major events such as weddings and funerals, they postpone the haircut ceremony for a few months and half a year. Anyway, if it is over within this year, it is over.
Seeing that Aunt Xue didn't object, I'm afraid it was just a birthday party.
Lin Yutong randomly asked someone to pack a few things and sent them over as gifts. He just went to eat wine and listen to a show and have fun for half a day. It was the Chinese New Year and the young lady went home. There was someone taking care of her at home, so she was not in a hurry.
The play on the stage was very lively, but she couldn't understand it. She only talked to Wang Xifeng and Youshi on the side. She reminded Wang Xifeng: "Second sister is afraid that she will have a good time in a few days."
The second day of February is the birthday of the Spring Festival.
Yingchun and Baochai are also about the same age, only a few days apart.
She said: "The Fang family is also a decent and decent family, and it is rare to have their family members come to watch the ceremony. After this, I am afraid that I will leave the court this year. After all, I am my biological sister-in-law. If you don't come forward in this matter, who will?
?”
You Shi glanced at Lin Yutong in surprise. Before, she only thought that she didn't like to interact with the family, but she didn't expect that she still had such concerns.
Wang Xifeng nodded: "I have something in mind. Let's see how the Xue family's play goes on."
It almost seems like I want to slap the Xue family in the face.
At this table, they and their wives were sitting together talking, and at that table were some girls. Baoyu didn't come in, either because he felt bored or where he ran off to.
The actors on the stage just sang, but Xiangyun over there couldn't help but burst out laughing. Baochai asked, "What is this weird girl Yun doing again?"
Xiangyun said: "Look, who does that girl look like?"
As he spoke, he only looked in Daiyu's direction.
Baochai was not one to speak ill-advised words, so he said: "You are the only one who talks a lot, so hurry up and have some tea." As he said that, he stuffed a cup of tea over him.
Xiangyun snorted: "What's the point, why can't you say it?" She pointed at Daiyu: "It just looks like her. If you don't believe me, you can't tell!"
Tongyu stood up immediately, but Daiyu reached out to stop her. She had stopped singing on the stage and looked down nervously.
Daiyu smiled and waved to the girl on the stage: "Come here, let me take a look."
The girl passed by almost trembling all over.
Daiyu stuffed a handful of fruits to her: "Don't be afraid, I just want to ask you a few words. I just want to see you close your eyes."
The girl then raised her head: "Girl... just ask..."
"Where do you live from? Who else is there? Why are you here?" She asked softly, without the slightest trace of annoyance in her eyes.
A trace of sadness flashed in the girl's eyes: "My family is from Gusu, and my father was also a scholar. However, my father was sick and passed away at an early age. My mother became ill and couldn't afford it, so I was left alone to live in my uncle's house.
My uncle didn't care, and my aunt was always mean, but my grandmother was very sympathetic. Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long, and my grandmother also passed away within two years... My aunt didn't tolerate it, but fortunately there was someone important in the family, so she bought her and learned a few plays.
,Only now are we living..."
There were tears in Daiyu's eyes. She turned her face and said to Tongyu: "I think it's thanks to my father's support that we sisters won't end up like her. Fortunately, our brother Hanchuang studied hard to support the school. We
Only then can I rely on you. We are all the same people, but our fates are so different depending on our fate." After saying that, he looked at Jia Mu, "I see how pitiful she is, and I feel that I am destined to do it. Today I shamelessly asked for it from my grandmother.
Let this girl go and keep her by your side, let her learn some needlework and socialize with her, so that she can stand in the world in the future."
Jia Mu quickly said: "What is this worth? Just take it back."
Mrs. Wang also hurriedly said: "Good boy, I know you are kind-hearted. I just ask her to follow you, and I will ask someone to send it to you tomorrow."
Lin Yutong's heart was aroused just now, but now she has put it down.
Tongyu over there grabbed Daiyu's hand, holding it tightly, with a bit of pride and relief on her face: "That's it! No one can live for you in the future, you have to stand on your own
That’s it.”
The two sisters were talking in such low voices, but they didn't know that Daiyu's words just now pierced the lungs of both of them.
First, Xiangyun, Xiangyun said in his heart, those who have a father to support and a brother to rely on, why bother to say such words to hurt my heart. I want a father but no father, and a brother but no brother, even if I am like Lan'er
In that way, it would be nice to have a mother. But there is no one who can be kissed warmly. Doesn’t she know her situation, so she just said such words... She obviously said the wrong thing, and now these people seem to
They blame me for saying the wrong thing. But where did I say the wrong thing? It can be seen that whether it hurts or loves you, it is not how good you are, but who is standing behind you, whether it is worthy of others' pain and love. For a moment,
I also feel a little unmotivated. It was just a joke, why should it be like this?
Baochai over there feels really good. She has no father, and her brother is unreliable. As long as she has something to rely on, why would she spend her birthday at Xue's house?
I made this for my birthday, and everyone was not very happy.
The Lin sisters took the little actor back, but the matter was not over yet.
Mrs. Wang seemed to be annoyed, so she slapped her on the Kang table when she entered the room.
Zhou Rui's family dismissed everyone in the room: "Miss Yun, she speaks without restraint."
"There is no barrier at all. It's obviously full of sneaky tricks." Mrs. Wang said angrily: "It's easy for Baoyu not to seduce them and stop joking with the girls. She actually followed Baoyu all day long to 'love her brother'"
He shouted, "Brother Love". He looked at me and didn't know what he was planning."
The Zhou Rui family is not sure about this. The girl is thin-skinned and young, so she may not have such thoughts. But the old lady said: "...I am afraid that she has never thought about it."
Mrs. Wang sneered: "Her historian family is still using the Wang family." After saying that, she called someone, "I want to send a letter to my brother."
Just for this?
That would be a bit of a fuss.
But Zhou Rui's family didn't dare to say anything, so they turned around and went out to call for help.
Who can I call? Only Jia Lian can be relied upon for this kind of thing.
When Jia Lian came back and told Wang Xifeng about this, Wang Xifeng curled her lips and said, "I thought it was a phoenix egg."
After saying this, he refused to say anything more, and excitedly talked about the hairpin gift for welcoming the Spring Festival: "I have planned who will be the guest, who will be the secretary, who will be the compliment..." Anyway, that's about a thousand or ten taels.
It looks like nothing now. It's just a reputation for treating my sister-in-law well. If it were a big deal, no one, no matter the old lady or the master, would be left alone. This is a public account.
Even if you have to add more money to it, it won't be much. With this calculation, it becomes more and more feasible.
Jia Lian looked at her curiously: "I wonder when you became so compassionate."
Wang Xifeng snorted coldly: "The money at home should be sent to the palace month by month. This family does not count the fourth girl, but there are three girls. Don't just call the queen a spender. In the future, we will spend it for the three girls.
But the house will not benefit you at all." As he spoke, his voice lowered, "As you said, brother-in-law, he is capable. Now if you give more face to your second sister, you will give more face to your brother-in-law. Then the emperor will discuss it.
He is also a brother-in-law, but no matter how high his position is, can I use him?"
"Hu Qin again." Jia Lian was startled: "You are so talkative. You are not afraid of having your tongue pulled out by the King of Hell when you come down there."
"Bah! You only went down there after being stabbed a thousand times. How could I go down there?" As he said this, his whole body shook involuntarily, and he straightened his face and said, "I'm serious about this. Don't do it."
interrupt."
Jia Lian laughed hurriedly: "I'm telling you it's hard work for you. If you want me to run errands to buy things, or come out to invite people, just say so."
That's all.
The next day, Jia Lian went to work as expected. Wang Xifeng also said to Ping'er: "We don't show it on weekdays, but after all, she is a biological sister. In previous years, when Sister Lin celebrated her birthday, or when Miss Bao celebrated her birthday before, he just took the seat.
I'll eat the noodles and drink if there's wine. It's a day for a day. When I arrived at the second sister's place, I said I wanted to do it, but he was unambiguous."
Ping'er only smiled and said nothing.
Wang Xifeng also came to the house in person and invited Lin Yutong to be the guest of praise. The guest of honor was the old concubine of Nan'an. The official invited Lin Tongyu.
If you ask for something like this, you can't refuse it.
Not to mention the old concubine of Nan'an. As the King of Nan'an moved to the southwest, the old concubine became more and more popular now. There was also Lin Yutong, a new noble lady, Lin Tongyu, who would also be a marquis in the future.
There is really no one else out there with this lineup.
Yingchun has lived in silence at home for so many years, but this time, she feels more respectable.
My husband's family, relatives and friends all gathered together, it was so lively.
Even though Mrs.
Head. Even Yuanchun got the message and asked someone to send him a hairpin, which added a bit of dignity.
This made Xue family's face lose its luster.
In fact, these are all false and should not be taken to heart. But for a girl of the same size, her husband's family didn't send anything else but nine gold hairpins weighing nine taels and nine coins.
I just put a thousand taels of silver in it. Not only does it look good, but more importantly, one of them is getting married, but I don’t know where the Xue family’s future is.
After going back, Xue Baochai couldn't help but feel a little depressed, and asked Aunt Xue in a low voice: "Didn't my brother say that a group of people were sent out from the palace before the year? I'm afraid there will be more people after the new year. Auntie, if there is no hope here,
Go ahead, why not take another route?"
Aunt Xue burst into tears: "If you don't follow your aunt's way, who else can you choose? Looking for Tong Yatou? Take the queen's way? I'm afraid it won't work. After all, Tong Yatou is kissing your aunt, and she will definitely not help us.
of."
Xue Baochai said: "Is it possible that other people's paths can't be followed? Whether it's Princess Nan'an, King Beijing, or Concubine Zhou..." As she said that, she seemed to think of something and said: "Brother, didn't you say that with
Do you have some friendship with King Nan’an’s brother-in-law?”
Aunt Xue didn't know the details, so she called Xue Pan in to ask.
Xue Pan said: "What kind of serious brother-in-law is this? He's just... my concubine's brother. But... it's not necessarily impossible to send him in. It's just that I have to wrong my sister after I go in. If it doesn't work, I'll beg Brother Heng again.

"No!" Xue Baochai stopped him hastily: "Brother, no matter how friendly they are over there, they are still from the Jia family! You can't write two characters for Jia in one stroke."

…”
"Didn't the Jia family's empress serve people when she first entered the palace?" Xue Baochai asked.
Xue Pan stopped talking and sat on the kang with his head in his arms for a long time before saying, "This may not be possible. You just need to stay at home and stop thinking wildly."
Yu Liu at the door listened to a few words, then returned to the house and asked Xue Pan carefully: "Don't we also want to have a queen?"
Xue Pan raised his arm and hit him, glaring and saying: "If you dare to talk nonsense, I will pull out your snake head!"
Yu Liu didn't dare to speak anymore and just covered her face and stepped aside.
He really didn't like Yu Liu's appearance, thinking that he and the eldest sister of the Yu family were really in the same league. She didn't come from the same mother's womb, so she was really different.
Sister Shan leaned against the door, giggling.
Xue Pan cursed, got up, and followed Sister Shan to her room.
Sister Shan asked cautiously: "But we want to send the girl to the palace?"
How could Xue Pan be willing? He didn't say anything, but he was reluctant to give it away.
But he didn't know that Sister Shan went out for a leisurely stroll the next day, and when she met Zhou Rui's family, she said something like this, "...I went out to our family after all, and I was always thinking about my wife...
