Chapter 305: The Zhu family replied
Xu Wenmin smiled slightly, and said confidently: "Sister, don't worry, the foundation of the Xu family is still there, and a few carriages are nothing." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoWait a few days, I'll take you to see our silk flower and silk fan workshop, as well as our ready-to-wear shop in the West Market. ”
The West Market is close to Houzaimun, where the shops are sold to the common people, and merchants from the surrounding towns of Luoyang City often come here to purchase goods and then transport them back for sale, making it a gathering place for wholesale and retail.
The southern city is mainly for the nobles in Beijing and the big merchants who come from afar. "Splendid Notes" is located in Nanshi, also because the cloth sold is luxurious, and ordinary people can't afford to wear it.
"I'm about to get moldy at home, brother, do you count?" Speaking of going out, Xu Wanzhen was still as excited as a little girl. It's not difficult to adapt to this ancient time, but there are really fewer opportunities for women to go out.
In this short period of time, Xu Wenmin has started a silk fan workshop and a ready-to-wear shop, which shows his high efficiency. Seeing that her sister was full of anticipation, she promised at the moment: "Sister, don't worry, I'll take you with you when you're done with these few things at hand." ”
Xu Wanzhen smiled and said, "Then I'll wait for the good news from my brother." ”
Xu Wenmin was about to go out, Xu Wanzhen remembered something and asked, "Brother, has the Zhu family replied?"
Speaking of this, Xu Wenmin was even more jubilant, he smiled and nodded: "Sister, look, I just got the letter yesterday." ”
Seeing that his face was full of joy, Xu Wanzhen quipped: "It seems that I am going to have a sister-in-law! The Zhu family really keeps its promise." ”
Xu Wenmin nodded violently: "My father-in-law is a square gentleman, and Min admires him!"
"Brother will be better to his sister-in-law in the future, Zhu Shibo will keep the promise and marry her to the capital alone, but her mother's family is thousands of miles away. Xu Wanzhen said.
This situation is very similar to that of Mrs. Xu. Distant marriage was extremely rare in the Gaomang Dynasty. Most parents feel sorry for their children, and they usually look at each other close when discussing relatives, just so that when there is something, the two families can help each other. If you marry your daughter, you also want to be close to your mother's family to support you.
"Rest assured, sister-in-law, I will live up to my father-in-law's trust. Xu Wenmin said solemnly.
"How is my brother going to reply to the letter? In my opinion, I have to consult with my father. The wedding date is next year, the two places are far apart, and it will take a month to send a letter back and forth, so the calculation time is still very tight. There are many things that need to be agreed on early, and in terms of etiquette, you can't neglect your sister-in-law. ”
"What my sister told me is that I've been busy these days, and I haven't thought about it yet. I won't go out today, and when my father comes back, we'll go to my grandmother and work out a charter, and then we'll write back. ”
Since Xu Wenmin was not in a hurry, the brother and sister chatted for another half an hour. He picked up the interesting stories and jokes that were circulating in the neighborhood these days and told them to Xu Wanzhen to make up for her regret that she couldn't go out.
After Xu Wenmin said goodbye, Cai Si came in with a bowl of bird's nest and said, "Miss, the bird's nest porridge that Mama Zheng ordered to boil is about to be drunk while it is hot." ”
Xu Wanzhen touched her face and said with a smile: "These days, I feel like you are using me as a pig." Lying down and sitting all day, with three meals a day and all kinds of pastries and bird's nests, are you ready to raise me to be white and fat?"
Caisi smiled: "Miss said yes. But I see, Miss is still a long way from being white and chubby. ”
Xu Wanzhen took the bird's nest porridge and drank it in small sips with a silver spoon.
Secretly slandered in his heart, fortunately, this body is young, and it is the time of growth and development, and he does not worry about gaining weight no matter how good he eats. Otherwise, if you continue to make up for it with such a diet, you will need to lose weight a long time ago.
Cai Si went out with an empty bowl, and Xu Wanzhen stood in front of the bronze mirror in a daze.
I'm much taller than when I first came here. The skin is originally white, and under the conditioning of Mama Zheng's changing patterns, it is as smooth and translucent as jade, as if she can pinch out the water. She knew that not only the skin on her face was like this, but the skin on her body was also white and delicate, smooth as satin.
The ancients' inside-out maintenance method is far better than those high-end beauty salons that cost thousands of yuan at every turn.
You know, here is "sunrise and sunset", good sleep, good diet, good medicated bath balm, etc., under such careful conditioning, bad skin is no natural reason.
Not to mention the pressure of work, family anxiety, air pollution in the environment, unsafe diet, and so on. How effective can you do with an expensive treatment once in a while?
Xu Wan really came to her senses, probably because of Mr. Ning, these days she thinks more about her previous life.
Suddenly, a spirit, it seems that it has reached the half-moon period again?
I picked up the almanac next to the bookcase, and carefully calculated the days, and sure enough, tonight was the half-moon period.
A touch of shame climbed up her jade cheeks, and Xu Wanzhen was both expectant and scared.
Hopefully, after tonight, a quarter of the potion will be dispelled, and three more times will be able to get rid of that damn potion completely!
What I was afraid of was the unexplained impulse, the hunger and thirst of his body that he couldn't control, the heat of his big palm, and the stoic look on his face.
After dinner, I took a medicinal bath, asked Sang Zi to prepare rose crisp and hot tea, and arranged for Wen Mulan to stay outside, and Xu Wan really slept with confidence.
With Wen Mulan here, he will naturally wake himself up when he comes.
……
As night fell, the night sky was dotted with stars, like a handful of finely broken diamonds, set in a huge and vast blue velvet carpet.
In early summer, insects chirp.
Wu Zhengxiang dodged out of the Zhongguo Mansion, dodging the guards and guards patrolling along the way, and arrived in front of Jiashanfang.
Although the wall is high, it is still difficult for him. He took out a black-painted flying claw from the treasure bag around his waist, tossed it lightly, and hooked it on the high wall. The force under his feet, like a lone eagle, and then the power of the claws swept over the wall.
The location of the Xu Mansion has long been familiar to him. Collected the flying claws, took advantage of the shadow between the houses, and went to Xu's house.
Jingli is not comparable to the northern suburbs of Bishan, and the garrison is strong. Walking at night here, even he needs to be careful to hide his tracks.
A quarter of an hour later, he came to the outside of the wall of Xu's house, and swept into the wall with one body. The pattern of the Xu Mansion has been passed on to him by Wen Mulan. The landing point has long been optimistic, and the place where he climbed over the wall is the third courtyard outside the Xu Mansion, and when he enters the courtyard, it is Xu Wanzhen's small courtyard.
Wen Mulan sat intently outside, her back straight, her eyes shining in the dark.
Hearing the slight sound of landing in the courtyard, she quietly got up and looked out through the gap in the window, and sure enough, it was the figure of Master Wu.
Seeing her door open silently, Wu Zhengxiang thought to himself: "It seems that I finally don't have to go through the window anymore, which is a big progress, I really want to marry her home immediately." ”
