Chapter 436: Choosing a Son-in-law (I)
As Huan Lingshan's birthday approached, the guests who came to participate in the ceremony have all arrived in Luling one after another. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
At the beginning of the previous day, Zheng Sui and the seventh aunt looked at the list of guests and congratulatory gifts, and suddenly heard the seventh aunt He ask: "The relationship between you and the county lord of Xinhui has not eased?
"Lang Jun is inconvenient to travel, and almost all of these years have stayed in Linru. Zheng Sui replied selectively.
"Shi Niang, he can't go back, you should always go back, take the children back for a walk, if you don't leave for many years, once you break off contact, even if you are close to your relatives, your affection will be weak. ”
"Ah Guang and Ah Du brothers, as the children of the Huan clan, must not let them cut off contact with the clan. He looked at this roster, and it was obvious that the Zheng family had more relatives than the Huan family's relatives, and the congratulatory gifts should also be thicker.
It's a good thing to be close to the Zheng family, but you can't take too much care of one or the other and lose your balance.
For example, the congratulatory gifts given by Zheng Wei and Zheng Jun brothers are a lot more than the two sisters-in-law of the Huan family, which is too wrong.
"Auntie, there's no such thing,"
Zheng Sui hurriedly denied it and explained: "Although we haven't returned to the country, but at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, there are many children of the Huan family who come to Luling. ”
When He heard this, he shook his head, "The children who came to Luling can be compared with the number of clansmen you know when you go back to Luling, right?"
"Auntie, the quantity cannot be compared, but the quality must be comparable. In Zheng Sui's view, almost all the children of the Huan family who can come to Luling are the more outstanding people of their generation.
He didn't want to argue with Zheng Sui, so he stretched out his hand and pointed to the gift list, "Xinhui County Lord and Liu County, what's going on?" Liu Xianjun refers to the second sister-in-law Liu, after Erlang Huan came out, he asked for the county monarch's order for his mother in the first two years.
On the gift list, below the county lord of Xinhui, a pair of dragons and phoenixes and jade pendants were written.
Next to Liu Xianjun, the target is a pair of coral hanging mirrors.
The county lord of Xinhui came from the Qi'an palace of the previous dynasty, and when she got married, it was at the peak of the Qi'an palace, and she had a rich marriage.
Liu Xianjun was born in the Liu family of Peiguo, with a prominent family and a hairpin for generations.
They shouldn't be so shabby.
What's more, the congratulatory gifts on the girls and the wedding gifts are also part of the girl's wedding dowry, so the congratulatory gifts have always been rich.
"They give as much as they like,"
Zheng Sui was lazy to care, "My family Ah Chi is not short of such a thing, what I have accumulated for her over the years, plus half of my own dowry, this dowry, looking at the entire southland, there are few little ladies who can compare." ”
"Shi Niang, doesn't my aunt want you to care about how many congratulatory gifts?"
He Shi looked at Zheng Sui and said bluntly: "Aunt just wants to persuade you, no matter what happens, she is your sister-in-law, the elder of the children, don't make the relationship so difficult, think of ideas, and ease the relationship." ”
"This gift list is only in private, and if it is passed on, it may not be known how outsiders will laugh at it. ”
"As the old saying goes, brothers are harmonious, and the family does not retreat, Uncle Huan has only three brothers, Ah Guang includes the Cong brothers, and there are only five people, and three or five people are not united, can you still be concentric with outsiders?"
"Why is Gorou Jun willing to let Shiro Jun's eight concubines preface the family tree and let them return to Linru, it's not that they have few brothers of the same generation, for the prosperity of future generations, brothers help each other, and the family is prosperous. ”
Zheng Sui knew that what the seventh aunt said was reasonable, she came from everyone, whether it was the Boling Cui family or the Xingyang Zheng family, they were all Chinese in the north, and they were heirlooms and etiquette.
It has always been advertised, watching and helping each other, brothers and brothers, Kunji affairs, and etiquette.
Zheng Sui scratched his head, "Auntie, the situation of the Huan family is different. ”
"Erlang Ah Xuan, who once competed with Lang Jun for the title, the second sister-in-law Liu Xianjun, is still thinking about the title, which involves interests, not that it can be eased, as for the sister-in-law Xinhui County Lord, she counted the lives of the Qi'an Wangfu and the Mansion on Lang Jun's head, where is there room for relaxation?"
"Over the years, Lang Jun has retreated again and again, and the affairs of the Huan clan, including the sacrificial fields, have all been handed over to San Lang Ajing. ”
"Ah Jing was brought up by the county lord of Xinhui, and Lang Jun did this, rarely interfering in the affairs of the clan, just to avoid conflict with the sister-in-law, and wanted the sister-in-law to let go of the knot and beg to ease the relationship. ”
"It doesn't work much,"
Zheng Sui summarized lightly, "I don't want to back down again, and I don't want Lang Jun to back down again." ”
He Shi was silent for a long time, she didn't know that there was such a deep reason before, after thinking about it, Fang said: "Shi Niang, if I remember correctly, since the accident in the Qi'an Palace, you haven't gone back. ”
"Besides, I'll discuss it with Lang Jun. ”
At a glance, it can be seen that Zheng Sui is not very interested, and because He is an elder, he will try to be perfunctory.
Let's say that after the lunch break, at the end of the day, there is a keju performance in the Keju field of Yunlin Temple.
Zheng Sui learned from Huan Yu last night that he asked Zhang Cheng and Zhang Guoxiang in the county mansion to prepare this juju performance, obviously for entertainment, but in private, it was to let his daughter Huan Lingshan look at her future husband.
So much so, this morning, Huan Yu has been telling her that in the next morning, she must take her daughter to Keju Field, and the stands above, Zhang Guoxiang has asked people to arrange it, and half of it is hung with bamboo curtains, so that the guests from the house can go to watch.
The male guests were entertained by the subordinate officials in the county mansion, and Zhang Guoxiang personally led them.
On the side of the female dependents, because there are too many people, the subordinate officials and ladies in the house will help to settle them, Zheng Sui will come forward in person, and Zhang Guoxiang's wife Gu and Gu Xianjun will be deputies.
When everyone was complete and Zheng Sui sat down to watch the performance on the field, whether it was on the field or in the stands, it was already lively.
With the sound of drum accompaniment, the performers in the audience control the Keju in various ways, making the Keju float in the air, the longer the time, the faster the rhythm, the more the performer's body is flexible and agile in action.
First the single player played Kemari, and then the double played Kemari.
Later, the duo plays the drum and plays kemari.
The more intense the drum music, the more exciting the performance on the field, and the more enthusiastic the cheers in the stands.
Even the little lady's head was about to stick out of the curtain, and Huan Lingshan, who was sitting next to Zheng Sui, was one of them, but her hand touched the bamboo curtain of Xiangfei, so Xiao Lingjiang pulled it back.
"Ah Chi, now the people on the field are all soldiers or people from the Yu family's juju team, if you want to stretch out your neck, you have to wait a little longer, and when the little Langjun of each family comes on the field, it is not too late for you to take a closer look, and Ah Niang will not let Ah Jiang stop you. ”
"Auntie. Huan Lingshan stomped her feet, sat back in her position, reached out to hug Zheng Sui's arm, and muttered: "When Xiao Langjun comes on the field, it will be boring." "She had seen Yu Hui play Keju in private.
It's not as exciting as it is on the field now.
Zheng Sui touched the top of her daughter's hair with a smile, she already knew that Huan Yu was in love with Yu Jiahuilang, and the people who came this time were Zhou Jiachonglang and Liu Jiayaolang, so she didn't mention Ananda of the Zhuge family.
