Chapter 422: The Disaster Ends
Song was very happy to hear this. It turned out that the house in Dingzhou Mansion was much cheaper than in the capital, and the good house was only more than 500 taels of silver.
They bought a house like this, and then decorated it, and bought some furniture, and it cost six hundred taels of silver, and the one thousand taels could be left to live with four hundred taels. Coupled with the more than 200 taels of silver that her husband saved, as well as her own dowry, the more you think about it, the better it gets.
Song smiled again, "When I go to Dingzhou Mansion in the future, I will also learn from my sister-in-law to do business and earn some fat and silver." The lucky luck opened by the sister-in-law not only made a lot of money, but also was commended by the emperor, and the business will definitely be better in the future. ”
Chen Afu said with a smile, "If my younger brothers and sisters need help, just say it, and I will definitely help if I can help." ”
Brother Wen was familiar with the play, pulled Chen Afu's shirt and said, "Auntie, Wen'er wants to see the dog." ”
Chen Afu smiled, "Okay, the eldest aunt asked people to bring them here." Then he whispered, "Our dogs are human, and they don't like to hear people call them dogs." Their names are sassy, long, and short, and when you see them, you have to call them by their names. ”
Brother Wen hurriedly covered his mouth with his little hand and nodded.
The three of them, the mother and son, came to the east side house, and Brother Wen put on her shoes and went down to the kang by the nurse, and teased the dog with snacks. Long and short grabbed food with him, making him giggle and laugh.
Chen Afu saw that Brother Wen liked it, so he left their mother and son for dinner before sending them away.
Finally, I waited until the thirtieth day of the first month. After Chen Afu had breakfast, he hurried to An Rongtang with his children.
Only the third lady sat on the kang in the side room, and when she saw Chen Afu going, she quickly pulled her onto the kang. The third lady's palms were sweaty, and she was so nervous.
Chen Afu was also nervous, and felt that his heart was about to jump out.
Today, the third master did not go to the office, he went to Liuyunzhai, and the old marquis and the marquis of Chu must also be there.
At this time, a girl came in to report that the third master had sent someone to pass a message to the third lady.
The third lady sat up straight and said, "Let him come in and pass the word." ”
A handsome little servant walked in with his head bowed, and after giving a salute, he whispered, "The third master asked the servants to come in and report to the third lady and the eldest grandmother. ”
The third lady nodded and said, "Got it, let's go." ”
Chu Lingwei and Chu Lingzhi are not going to school today, so they came here to say hello to the third lady.
Although they didn't know what was going on, as soon as they saw the solemn expressions of the third lady and Chen Afu, they knew that something was wrong with the adults. didn't dare to be an eyesore here, and led the mother and son to their own yard to play.
Chen Afu and the third lady sat on the kang and felt anxious, but fortunately they had two children who were funny. They fell asleep, and the two adults were in a daze. They woke up, Chen Afu finished feeding, and the adults teased the children again.
At noon, the girl who was holding the curtain outside suddenly shouted, "Third lady, grandmother, the snow is light, and the wind has stopped." ”
When the third lady and Chen Afu heard this, they glanced at each other, and they hurriedly got off the kang and walked briskly towards the hall.
The servant put a cloak on them, and the girl lifted the big thick curtain and looked out. The goose-feathered flakes had turned into tiny snowflakes, and the howling wind had stopped.
The two men walked out and stood under the porch for less than half an hour, when the snow became lighter and lighter, and finally stopped.
Many people came out and shouted loudly when they saw that the snow had stopped. They didn't want to go into the house yet, and continued to look at the sky.
Soon, the thick clouds dispersed, and the long-lost sun finally came out. In an instant, the blue sky suddenly appeared in front of people's eyes, clear as a wash, and there were no clouds. The blue sky, which has not been seen for a long time, is beautiful and dazzling at this moment.
Inside and outside the courtyard was the sound of people cheering.
The third lady's body shook, and Chen Afu helped her. Her body trembled slightly, she was afraid! The first foreshadowing of the Master of Wisdom has already come true, but what about the next?
Chen Afu's mood was also very conflicted, he was happy for the end of the snow disaster, but he was also worried about the future of the Chu family. Dabao, the Marquis of Chu, the third master, which of them has an accident with the Chu family.
She helped the third husband back to the side room and whispered into her ear, "Don't worry about the third aunt. Because of the suggestion of Master Wuzhi, the first thing we did was so perfect. The second thing will also break the game because of his suggestion, don't you have all that kind of magic medicine? If something happens, the medicine will save people. ”
The third lady said quietly, "I hope so." ”
The two of them ate tastelessly, and Chen Afu took the child back to Zhuxuan.
The snow stopped, and she had to pack up her things and go back to Dingzhou Mansion.
At the end of the day, the Marquis of Chu, who had not shown up for a few days, and the old Marquis came to Zhuxuan together.
The two children hadn't seen their grandfather for a few days, and when he came, their eyes flashed with excitement, their limbs kept shaking, and their giggles were much louder, and they couldn't be excited.
Chen Afu smiled, "Ouch, I saw my grandfather, I was happy to see them." ”
Marquis Chu was also happy, leaned over and pinched their little faces, and said, "Grandpa is busy, I'll come to see you another day." Then he didn't even sit down and left.
When the little brothers saw that their favorite grandfather stopped teasing themselves, they cried loudly. They are usually very well-behaved, they don't like to cry, and they don't like to pick up people. And this time he cried extremely aggrieved.
Marquis Chu, who walked to the gate of the courtyard, could still hear their cries, and his footsteps paused, but he still raised his feet and left.
The old marquis told Chen Afu that he asked her to take the child back to Dingzhou Mansion first, and he didn't want to go back for the time being. This matter is over, and there is another thing that scares the Chu family even more in his heart, and he will go back after this matter is resolved. In his cognition, the two sons are more likely to have an accident than the eleventh master.
The blood sacrifice of the eight princes to heaven finally stopped the snow disaster that ravaged the world for more than a month, not only the emperor was overjoyed, but the people also missed the emperor's grace. I heard that the opera troupe in the capital is rushing to rehearse two plays praising the prince, one is called "Eight Dragons Sacrifice to the Sky" and the other is called "Sick Dragon Sacrifice to the Sky".
The emperor commended and rewarded the eight princes. Special commendations were given to the second prince who proposed the "blood sacrifice to the heavens", the prince Rui who proposed the "brotherly unity", and the three princes who were sick but still insisted on fasting and sacrificing to the sky, and each of them was rewarded with a bloody horse.
The eight princes, who were also born by the queen, entered the household department for training, and the nine princes and the tenth princes, who had never been valued by the emperor, also entered the ministry and the ministry of works respectively. In addition, he also let the third prince and the second prince experience in the cabinet together, and also asked one of the uncles of the third prince to make up for the lack of a servant in the ministry, and transferred a close confidant of the third prince to serve as the governor of the Chinese military governor's office......
It can be seen that this blood sacrifice to the heavens, it seems that the sincere and commendable three princes have won the emperor's heart even more, and they have received the most benefits.
This made the Nine Emperor Princes and the Chu family breathe a sigh of relief. Although the emperor has changed his opinion of the second prince and his impression of Prince Rui and the third prince is better, his original intention has not changed......
