"A long drought and a sweet rain, a foreign country meets an old acquaintance, the cave house spends candle nights, and the gold list is nominated. "This is the four great joys of life, and it is fortunate to meet one, not to mention two or three in a row, Zhou Ze, the third master of the Xingyuan Marquis Mansion, is such a lucky person.

Soon after his wife became pregnant, she participated in the meeting and won the first place, just after participating in the palace test and diagnosed that his wife was pregnant with twins, before he finished digesting the good news, there was another happy letter from Aunt Luo's side, and the succession of good news made Wednesday Ye happy to close his mouth, waved his hand, listened to the idle up and down and paid two more months of monthly money, and also cared about the life of Mingling Mingqi sisters for the first time. Although it was just a routine greeting, it was enough to show his mood. For a few days in a row, the third master Zhou Ze was all smiling, and he gave rewards when he saw people, and even the second master of the Hou Mansion, who had always only nested in the women's pile, was envious of him.

I want to come to heaven to bring all this luck to his head, everyone's mood has not calmed down, this spring palace test will be released, the third master Zhou Ze was hand-picked by the emperor to explore the flowers, and praised his article for being a useful talent. In this way, the eyes of everyone in the Xingyuan Marquis Mansion were all cast on the third room.

On the day of the list, the new champion held the hand-picked imperial edict, stepped across the golden saddle and red mane horse, and led the scholars all the way to watch the list. The guard of honor hugged all the way, opened the way, and shook the sky. Everywhere you go, there are crowds of people, the joy is thunderous, the streets are full of lights, the bustle is abnormal, the six streets and three cities, compete to see the new Jinshi parade street.

It is the so-called "spring breeze is proud, and you can see all the Chang'an flowers in one day".

Next is the "Qujiang Banquet, Wild Goose Pagoda Inscription", after the Qionglin Banquet, Zhou Ze was appointed by the emperor to edit the Hanlin Academy, and it is seven products.

Many relatives and friends came to send gifts and congratulations, although Zhou Ze is now just a small Hanlin Academy editor, but as the saying goes, "non-Jinshi does not enter Hanlin, non-Hanlin does not enter the cabinet", anyone with a discerning eye can see the emperor's love and appreciation for this new science and technology exploration flower, if you don't take advantage of this opportunity to make friends. Isn't it possible to wait until it is developed in the future to come back to the knot?

For a while, listening to the people coming and going, I sent away a handful, and then came again. The hands of the people who received gifts and kept accounts were sour, and even the guests in the other rooms were a lot more, and the Xingyuan Marquis Mansion suddenly became another lively place in the capital.

There are a lot of people in the front yard, and of course the female relatives are not resting, and there are some friendships in the past. and the family to pull relatives and bring them all to find the opportunity to come to the door, climb the friendship, talk about the old days, Yuan's big belly is very difficult to deal with, and in the end it is really unbearable and simply handed over to Zhou Mingshan and Mama An.

In this way, Zhou Mingshan has more things in his hands, even with the help of Zangrui and Mama An, he is very busy.

Besides, the most important thing is that Aunt Luo is pregnant!

This is also something that did not happen in the previous life!

When she first heard the news, Zhou Mingshan was angry. She didn't understand how Aunt Luo could get pregnant, didn't her father always go to Aunt Luo's place? And her mother was pregnant, wouldn't this happen more than ten years ago repeat itself?

It was still the Yuan family who persuaded her, no matter when Zhou Ze went, it is a fact that Aunt Luo is pregnant now, and the first priority is to take care of her at this juncture.

In the case of the mother, it seems that the father is always the most important.

Zhou Mingshan could only comfort herself, it must be because her rebirth changed the direction of things that so many unexpected things happened. Just according to what my mother said, settle her down first and then talk about it.

It's okay if it's just pregnant. What gave her headache was that her father obviously attached great importance to Aunt Luo's baby and asked several times. If Aunt Luo's fetus is a son, it will be the eldest son of the third room, and when the time comes, ......

Thinking of mothers. Zhou Mingshan secretly gritted her teeth, and she would be smooth as soon as she went.

"Sister Zangrui, you can ask someone to send these jewelry and clothes to the West Courtyard later!"

"Girl, this is ......" Zang Rui was puzzled, "Didn't you just send it the day before......?"

"It's okay, just do what I say!" Zhou Mingshan interrupted her. "Sixth sister, they are going to see guests these days, so it's good to prepare more clothes and jewelry!"

"Yes, the slave knows!" Zang Rui replied and withdrew to call someone.

Zhou Mingshan continued to bury her head in those account books, she was not familiar with these in her previous life, and now she wants to take this opportunity to learn, fortunately, Mama An also told her some before, and sometimes Yuan will also give advice. Fortunately, Yuan's dowry is also a field and a shop, which is quite stable for the time being, although it doesn't earn much, and it is always a place to make money, as for the rest, wait for the mother to give birth and then make plans.

Because Aunt Luo was pregnant, Yuan simply exempted her from morning and dusk, and asked Zhou Mingshan to arrange more people to serve her, and send some medicinal supplements from time to time.

Seeing that she had a huge belly and had to worry about the concubine's room, Zhou Mingshan simply took over the matter. Although it is a little unpleasant, but she is the eldest daughter, and the housekeeper director is also reasonable, and there is also an assistant mother An next to her, in order to make it more convenient, Yuan simply appointed Mama An to be the housekeeper who listens to the idle housekeeper to assist Zhou Mingshan.

And the first thing Zhou Mingshan did was to clean up the west courtyard and let Aunt Luo move over, the reason is also ready-made, the aunt is a double body, and the number of people serving around her needs to be increased, and the east wing is narrow, so it is not good if you bump into it.

No matter what Aunt Luo thinks in her heart, she has to move over for the sake of her heirs, and although the west courtyard is a small cross-courtyard, it is still much larger and more convenient than the east wing, and the sixth and seventh girls will not feel cramped in the future.

The second thing is to raise the monthly standard for Aunt Luo, the sixth girl, and the seventh girl. Needless to say, Aunt Luo originally took one tael of silver and added two hangings, which is the common practice of all the aunts in the Hou Mansion, and now Zhou Mingshan has added one tael of silver and five hangings to her, the reason is still because of her double body, if she wants to eat and drink anything on weekdays, she can also go to the kitchen to do it.

The monthly rules of the sixth and seventh girls were originally the same as Zhou Mingshan, but Zhou Mingshan had Yuan's subsidy on weekdays, so she was naturally wider than what they had on hand. Now Zhou Mingshan of course can't privately raise their monthly examples, she began to use her age as an excuse to see more customers, from time to time she has to send some fashionable clothes, rouge gouache over, and she will not miss Zhou Mingling and Zhou Mingqi when she makes jewelry herself.

In this way, the people in the house gradually began to rumor that the fourth girl was generous, taking care of her pregnant aunt and sister-in-law meticulously, and she was no longer so intimate, she was simply a bodhisattva like the third grandmother.

Zhou Mingshan laughed when she heard these rumors, sometimes even if Su Xin and Hongyun were angry, she didn't explain, but just told them not to make assertions, and they had to listen to her orders in every matter.

Several girls were originally honest, but seeing that she seemed to be confident, and even Mama An, who had always been old, didn't say much, Su Xin and the others slowly stopped asking, Zhou Mingshan said that if you go east, you will go east, and if you go west, you will go west.
