How could the clansmen of the Su family like the things made by the Xixia court? The younger generation was not well-cultivated, and they faintly disliked it on their faces. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The four treasures of the palace study, Xixia has made more than 1,000 sets in total, and it is also engraved with the imprint of the emperor's jade seal, most of which are used to reward the scholars of Hanlin who are brilliant.

Chu Zhaohui was full of enthusiasm and brought back more than ten sets of study and four treasures, not wanting the clansmen to be like this, she couldn't help but change her complexion slightly.

Su Duhan checked her face, added tea for her mother, and whispered in her ear: "Mother is not strange, it's not that the gift is not good, it's just that the Su family is from a martial arts background." ”

One sentence reminded Chu Zhaohui, and she was a little stumped for a while. When I came, I just wanted to choose something to show my identity, but I ignored this verse, about my son said well, my own gift is not very satisfactory.

It's just that the so-called elders give it, and it can't be excused.

Even if the gift is not to his liking, the junior should not immediately show a displeased look, Chu Zhaohui is a little awkward in his heart, and he is not interested in this trip to the clan.

After finishing her husband's business, he may not be able to deal with the clansmen in the future, so he doesn't think about these unpleasant things in the face of his son. Chu Zhaohui thought about it and then instructed Mingzhu to prepare another gift and give it to these young children when he left.

In the end, the atmosphere was not as harmonious as Fang Cai, and the patriarch also noticed the negligence of the juniors, and his heavy eyes swept coldly towards the juniors in the clan, full of wordless condemnation.

The patriarch's wife was exquisite, and seemed to be blind to the scene of the other party's talent, so she smiled affectionately at Chu Zhaohui: "Madame has worked hard all the way, please enter the inner courtyard to rest, I ordered someone to make a pot of tea to relieve the fatigue of Madame." ”

Together with the two concubines, they invited Chu Zhaohui and Wen Wan to go to the inner courtyard for tea. left the patriarch and the brothers in the clan in front of him, and accompanied Su Duhan to talk,

The clan allocated the East Cross Courtyard to Chu Zhaohui and Wen Wan to live temporarily, and it is said that it was the courtyard where Su Rui lived with his parents when he was a child.

When everyone came, Mingzhu led the slaves and maids to clean up the east room where the guests were entertained, and took Chu Zhaohui's habitual foot pedal mattress and sputum box, etc., all of which were arranged according to the rules of the house.

Seeing that Wen Wan helped Chu Zhaohui to sit on the big kang near the window, the patriarch's wife and the two concubines took their seats. Mingzhu left two maids to wait here, and he led people to make beds in the inner room.

The little girls in the house poured tea, and were busy setting up refreshments, because they were afraid that the dim sum made at home would not meet the taste, they put some delicate dried and fresh fruits, and put a mahogany inlaid silver painting Fu Lu Shouchang octagonal box, and respectfully brought it up.

Wen Wan got up and took the teacup, first took a cup and served it to Chu Zhaohui, and then to the patriarch's wife and the other two.

The patriarch's wife was pointing to the dried kumquat in the box and recommending it to Chu Zhaohui, and said, "Madame, taste it, the kumquat on her tree after autumn is made by adding self-brewed jujube nectar, which is the most nourishing yin and nourishing lungs." ”

Another concubine continued: "The countryside is simple, the only advantage is self-sufficiency, and the lady tastes these dried pears and fruits, they are all harvested from her own orchard, and they are the cleanest and the taste is delicious." ”

As he spoke, everyone took the teacup handed by Wen Wan and thanked her again and again.

Seeing that the righteous woman of the Anguo Mansion was beautiful and acted so generously, the patriarch's wife was overjoyed, and couldn't help but look at Wen Wan twice. When they saw her appearance clearly, several concubines looked at each other, and they all agreed, and there was a trace of astonishment in their eyes.

Regardless of the fact that the patriarch had already given a meeting gift, the patriarch's wife reached out and wiped off an amethyst-like blood jade bracelet on her wrist, and handed it to Wen Wan with both hands, as if she were loving to her own girl: "This is left by the ancestors of the Su family, it was originally a thing that was passed on to women but not men, and I only have two sons under my knees, so I am embarrassed, and I just gave it to the girl today." ”

The blood jade is precious, and she has lived in the palace for a long time, just by looking at the color, you can know that this thing is valuable, and where is it willing to accept it. She smiled and thanked the patriarch's wife for her kindness, and insisted on refusing to accept it.

The patriarch's wife patted the back of the gentle hand and smiled warmly at Chu Zhaohui: "Madam, you see, you can't write two Su characters in one stroke, it is the ancestral thing of the Su family, and who will you keep it for the girl of the Su family if you don't give it to it." Take this to the girl as a meeting gift today, and it can be regarded as the lady who accepted the righteous daughter, so as to add some joy to the house. ”

The husband's heirs are thin, Chu Zhaohui once heard her husband say that it has been passed down in a single line for several generations, and it is a single seedling when it comes to her son, and the words of the patriarch's wife reached her heart.

The house should indeed add some joy, and I don't dare to expect other people's children and grandchildren to be full, at least I need to have both children and daughters.

Chu Zhaohui had the intention to fight for Wen Wan's face, thinking that although the blood jade was precious, she couldn't take it away, but she just changed a way to give the patriarch's wife a gift. He generously ordered Wen Wan to put it away, picked up a dried kumquat and tasted it, praised it again and again, and thanked the patriarch's wife with a smile.

The patriarch's wife's gaze lingered on Wen Wan for a moment, as if admiring Wen Wan's beauty, and as if she was looking at someone through Wen Wan, and smiled warmly for a while: "It's not a family, don't enter a family, Madame, the righteous daughter, knows it so well, and she looks a little similar to the son of the world." ”

Wen Wan heard this, and only smiled politely, and did not want to dwell on this topic. Chu Zhaohui smiled and said: "It can be seen that our mother and daughter are destined, and in the imperial city, there are also several ladies who have said so." ”

After talking and laughing for a while, Chu Zhaohui's face softened slightly, and the patriarch's wife took the opportunity to retire and said earnestly: "The clan is simple, please ask the lady to live for a few days." Mrs. worked hard all the way, first rested, set up a few tables of vegetarian seats in the family in the evening, and the old ladies and ladies washed the dust for Mrs. and the son and the young lady. ”

Please bear with Chu Zhaohui, the patriarch's wife implicitly accompanied the inappropriate words and deeds of the young children of the Fangcai clan.

Chu Zhaohui said with a smile: "Thank you Madame for your kindness, I am the daughter-in-law of the Su family, which is equivalent to returning to my own home, how can I say anything." ”

Knowing that if he talked about seniority, he should call the patriarch's wife a sister-in-law, but he screamed awkwardly, Chu Zhaohui couldn't call it after a few attempts, so he had to call him by his wife, and the sons and nephews in the clan were even more difficult to get close to.

The wife of the patriarch accompanied him to take his leave, and when the patriarch returned to the room in the evening, she told him that those who achieve great things are not informal, and instructed him not to be rash in restraining the young people in the clan.

The patriarch naturally knew the stakes and responded: "I have warned me before, but if they don't listen, I have severely punished them." Today, the little master admonished them again, and he didn't dare to make trouble. was supposed to put together to plot a big thing, but Mrs. Anguo and her righteous daughter couldn't be asked to see any clues. ”

As he spoke, the patriarch took off his hospitality clothes and went into the inner room to change into his regular clothes.

Speaking of Mrs. Anguo's daughter-in-law, the patriarch's wife asked through the curtain, "When she saluted you in the morning, did you see her appearance?" )
