172. Chen family

The courtyard of the Chen family is also spacious, larger than the Song family, but it can't stand the many people in the family, the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren live in one courtyard, Chen Ge Lao alone has four sons, and the four sons each marry wives and have children, the older grandchildren have already married, and even the granddaughter-in-law is pregnant with children, and the Chen family is already four rooms in the same house.

It turned out that the spacious garden was separated by a row in the east and a west, and Chen Ge was there, so the sons naturally did not separate, and when they reached the age, they got married, and the grandchildren landed one by one.

The little daughter-in-law became a mother-in-law, and the grandchildren at the bottom got married separately, generation after generation, and the yard was crowded and stuffed.

Roughly calculated, there are more than 20 masters, there are so many masters, and there are girls and mothers-in-law who follow for a long time, and the back alleys are more crowded, and it is good to have a room of their own.

Chen Xiangning was very envious of Ji Ziyue, needless to say, the Wu family has a huge yard, Wu Weiqing occupies a two-story small building alone, the yard can play swings, there are fish in the pool, flowers are planted on the wall, there is no need to go out, the garden is full of clean land, the warm pavilion hugs the blue yarn cupboard, she can go wherever she likes.

Even Ji Ziyue is also a single-door courtyard, although the Ji family is not big, but there are no aunts and concubines and sisters, she has a courtyard of her own, open the window is a pond, plant a few pots of lotus, and watch the lotus leaves come out of the water, which is clean and comfortable.

Chen Xiangning ranks fifth in the family, with a total of seven sisters, the first few of them are married when they are old, and some of them have not yet left the cabinet, and those who are about to leave the cabinet live in one place to embroider the dowry, and she lives with two sisters who have not decided on the family.

Such a small courtyard, there is no more than the east and west wings of the main hall, one is partitioned, all people live, and the two sisters are not the head of the same room.

But when they entered the courtyard, there were no big rooms, two bedrooms, and three rooms, and the girls lived in one place, and two grandmothers were sent to one courtyard, and finally a room was vacated for them to use for reading and embroidery.

When she was a child, she wanted to have a room of her own, just because she lived in a restrained place and had a large population, she never had to worry about it.

When she entered the palace for the draft, she shared a room with Ye Wenxin, Ji Ziyue lived unsatisfactorily, and when the eldest princess came to see her, she said that where could people live in this house, but for Chen Xiangning, it was the most spacious room she had ever lived.

She doesn't know how the queen took a fancy to her, her background is not the best, her father is not mediocre at home, and because of mediocre, the things on their heads are more ordinary.

The place where I live is cramped, and the things that are sent down are the same, the eldest aunt is a family, and the clothes and jewelry are sent together, and I have to love my sister and let my sister, good materials are naturally loved by everyone, but not everyone can use them.

Chen Ge Lao bears the name of Ge Lao, he has already been a member of the government in the early years, and the family lives on some grange rents, and he can't eat gold and jade grains like the Wu family girl, and wear brocade and silk.

Every time it's time to be able to socialize, the rest of the sisters will let go, live so close, don't want to see the teeth of the sky with their tongues, naturally learn a kung fu with mud, stumbling and quarreling is more laborious than forbearing, then everyone can endure it.

My grandmother died early, and my grandfather had only one old aunt waiting by his side.

Chen Xiangning only entered the palace as a formality, and when she entered the palace, the eldest aunt called her to the main courtyard and told her that she didn't have to be afraid, what it was like at home, what it was like inside: "And your grandfather is here." ”

Chen Xiangning knew that she was not the best born among these draft girls, nor was she considered to have the best family background, so she simply went all the way, she didn't want to make trouble in the palace, everyone coexisted peacefully, and she was not a rafter or a sound worm.

Where did I think that this is how the queen mother took a fancy to her, these little girls, they are also delicate and raised when they are young, and when they enter the palace, they still want to converge, and when the days are long, where do they still remember the words told by the family, plus the third day of March, the fifth day of the fifth day of the fifth month of the dragon boat race, one by one.

The queen was already interested in Chen Xiangning, but she also asked her son, she was not this temperament, and let the prince choose her the same, when the holy decree came down, Chen Xiangning was speechless, and the girl in the courtyard looked at her with her eyes, wanting to see something unusual from her, thinking about it carefully, this Chen family girl is really an ordinary.

With her to run for election, in addition to her, there is also a prince concubine and a prince Jieyu, there is such a palace person in the East Palace, she left the palace and didn't have time to drill into her mother's arms, so she first saw the eldest aunt with a yard surnamed Chen to give her a gift.

The Chen family followed the letter, in addition to the joy of the upper and lower levels, the housewife also sent the courtyard, they were already the crown princesses, and they couldn't still nest in the warm pavilion, not even a serious courtyard.

It is already a difficult thing for the Chen family to vacate a courtyard to accommodate these grandmothers from the palace, and the courtyard where Chen Xiangning originally lived is really shallow and narrow, and there is not even a roll shed flower stand, which makes people look at it and look at it.

It was Chen Ge Lao who spoke, sorted out the courtyard of the four sons, and placed the granddaughter in first, the eldest daughter-in-law sighed, and complained to her husband: "That one is not easy to get along with, didn't you just look at her surname Yan at the beginning, so she arranged such a place, if you talk about it, how can it be calculated." ”

If you really want to count it, it is the prince's aunt, so she has to write a letter to write about the dilemma of the family, borrow the yard first, and then talk about it later, this will be at least when Chen Xiangning's crown princess becomes the queen, and the family will set aside the courtyard where she lives.

Now Chen Xiangning lives in the courtyard of the fourth aunt, and the courtyard is planted with magnolia and begonia peony flowers, taking the meaning of Yutang wealth and wealth, naturally it is still inferior to the Wu family of the Ji family, but she is envious when she is a child, looking at the clusters of pearls and plums outside, she let out a long breath.

Chen Xiangning didn't have time to worry, she put a big hat on her head, and she was even exempted from asking for peace in the future, and the sisters came to her yard, and it was not like the original to open the curtain door to enter, not to mention that she had so many more lessons, and the old grandmothers taught her the same.

What the prince likes and dislikes, she doesn't know anything at this time, and her mother also asked for her, thinking that there is always a Qin Se and Ming between husband and wife, and the two of them can't say a word, how can they get along.

The palace man laughed: "Madame don't have to worry, Niangniang is going to enter the middle palace, these things are the most important, and those next to her have someone to do it for you." ”

Chen Xiangning's ears were red when he heard it, and he didn't dare to ask a word anymore, his mother told the eldest aunt about this, and the eldest aunt came here and took her hand: "These grandmothers are right, you don't have to learn these ways, it turns out that the family hasn't had time to teach you, you have to learn it quickly, you are the daughter-in-law of the queen saint, it is different from the marriage outside, the mother likes you, it is the most important thing." ”

Chen Xiangning was ignorant, and assigned her four palace grandmothers, and one of the grandmothers surnamed Sang treated her the most kindly, Chen Xiangning naturally asked her everything, and Sang Mama saw that the time had come, and said that it was her fellow villager and the companion of the prince.

Those few people didn't open their mouths, Chen Xiangning wanted to ask her more and more what the person she was going to marry looked like, the prince she had seen from a distance, knowing that he was not bad, but he didn't know anything about his temperament, Mama Sang told her when no one was around, the prince has an excellent temperament, and he is also very kind to others.

"The palace eunuchs in the East Palace have never been beaten or punished, the prince is benevolent, and he is a good child like Niangniang. The more Mama Sang said, the greater Chen Xiangning's expectations, since the woman marries, in addition to three meals a day and four seasons of clothes, she just wants to marry a good husband and live in harmony with each other.

Mama Sang not only told her about the prince's preferences, but also told her how to hold the other two who had titles in the future, a prince concubine and a prince Jieyu, in addition to these two, there will also be many women in the East Palace, waiting for a husband with her.

Chen Xiangning was stunned for a while, but she didn't dare to say that the queen was the only favorite, and she understood it once she thought about it, that was the heavenly family, and what she wanted was to spread the branches, as long as she could give birth to the emperor's grandson, it would be different.

The draft lasted for three months, and the decree was only a month, and when the three of the Song family saw Chen Xiangning again, they were all slightly surprised, this girl from the Chen family is very different now.

The skin is called white as fat jade, the red lips are slightly open like blue musk, and I don't know what spices are smoked on the clothes. ”

Yu Rong Zezhi and the two are still familiar with her, but Song Zhimei and her have been friends, the two exchange letters on weekdays, not very frequent, and never stopped, Chen Xiangning raised his eyebrows and greeted every little lady in the pavilion, with his two sisters sitting beside him, Song Zhimei couldn't stand it.

Mama Sang looked at the three girls of the Song family one by one, Yu Rong thirteen, Zezhi twelve, Yu Rong was better, Zezhi looked at a childish group, frowned in his heart, and then turned back to look at Song Zhimei, seeing her warm expression, she was in her heart, and she couldn't make up her mind for a while.

The little ladies sat down with flowers and snacks, Chen Xiangning ate and dressed separately from the Chen family, and she was a royal person, and the small kitchen in the courtyard had its own palace people to send meals to the table.

Several girls were shocked when they saw her, Chen Xiangning's appearance can only be called gentle, and she is far from standing out, at this time, she clearly has a different body and bearing, sitting one by one, but no one dares to speak first.

Song Zhimei was anxious for a while, and walked two steps quickly, and when she saw that Chen Xiangning didn't care about her, she slowed down her pace again, paused slightly, covered up the past, sat not far away, pinched the flower cake in her heart, and saw that everyone didn't speak, so she laughed: "The flower cake you sent last time, the filling was just right, and the mouth was full of sweetness, but I don't know what the recipe is." ”

The field pulled back, and Chen Xiangning nodded at her: "What is it worth, just copy a copy and give it to you." As soon as the conversation began, the rest of the people also followed www.biquge.info Pen Fun Pavilion to talk about jewelry and clothes.

asked her flower crown, and asked her about the ayaluo on her body, Song Zhimei lowered her eyes and looked at Chen Xiangning's skirt, and a circle of pomegranate flowers was embroidered on the skirt, which not only responded to the scene, but also had a good metaphor, everyone else spoke, but she stopped talking, and held the cup to eat tea, thinking about how to break free from this predicament through Chen Xiangning.

Shi Gui followed behind the three sisters of the Song family, with Zilou Shuiyun and Bai Lu there, she couldn't squeeze forward, and because she was behind, she could see a few in the pavilion clearly, Mama Sang had never left the three girls of the Song family, Shi Gui frowned, the mama immediately looked over, Shi Gui quickly raised his hand and pretended to be pollen and squinted, his eyes were staggered, and his heart couldn't help but tremble, this grandma is even more frightening than Mama Feng.

The little ladies ate tea in a circle, the flowers and trees in the courtyard were flourishing at this time, and after a few words, the pear blossoms were appreciated outside, two round pots of sweet white porcelain, a circle of bronzing on the top, and the lid of the pot was marked with the word imperial system, Chen Xiangning's face was slightly red, and the rest looked at her with envy

Although the person who sent the thing did not say it clearly, it was clearly sent by the prince, Chen Xiangning's face was red, but he ordered someone to manage the small dishes that sent the wine, and then it was boring to talk dryly, and took the promotion picture that is now fashionable, the hairpin of the hairpin, the willow of the willow, playing the flower card to play the promotion map, and the courtyard was lively for a while.

Mama Sang whispered something in Chen Xiangning's ear, she hesitated slightly, and then stood up: "I'll come when I go back, you guys play first." ”

Among these people, there is only one Song Zhimei who is close, and the others are not changing when she changes her clothes, but Song Zhimei stands up together, and follows behind unhurriedly, Mama Sang saw it clearly, but did not stop it.

Shi Gui's errand was to look at the big girl, not to let her out of the stubble, and immediately followed when he saw this, but asked Bai Lu to stop her, and looked at her with a smile: "The girl has me there." ”
