After fifteen, the smell of the New Year gradually faded, and the letter sent from Yunfu also arrived in Yizhou City.

Chanyi sat on the Luohan bed, carefully reading the family letters page by page.

She frowned for a while, and laughed for a while, so that Chu Shaoyuan on the side couldn't help but look sideways, and she didn't know what was written in the letter.

After she finished reading all the family letters, as soon as she looked up, she saw Chu Shaoyuan staring at herself, smiled, handed him the family letter, and said: "The second brother is a relative of Layueli, and there is a letter brought to me by Sister Qing in it, saying that when they got married, the second brother was really embarrassed and ruthless, think about the Xiao family are all military generals, and when he meets such a weak scholar as the second brother, I am afraid it will be a little difficult for him to bend the bow and shoot arrows." ”

What's more, Xia Mingche has liked to read since he was a child, although he is a gentleman with seven arts, but in addition to reading, other skills are just a little learned.

When Chu Shaoyuan heard her say this, he suddenly remembered that when he married her, Xia Mingchen's troubles.

The corners of his mouth curled, and he smiled heartily.

"Wanwan is only worried that the second brother will be troubled, but I have forgotten the scene when we got married, I was troubled by the eldest brother?"

Taking arrows to shoot silk thread copper coins is also a loss to Xia Mingchen to think of, if it weren't for the fact that his martial arts have not fallen, and there are exercises every day, I am afraid that he will be stuck there at the moment, and it is inevitable to make a fool of himself, but if he loses the face of the evening sun, even if Xia Mingchen does not ridicule him, he will feel guilty in his heart.

Chan Yi listened to him crook the topic to nowhere, and couldn't help but smile and reach out and gently hit his arm, "Let's talk about second brother now, you don't know where to go!"

Chu Shaoyuan smiled, read the family letter slightly, and said: "The second brother is not a weak scholar, you don't know how brave the second brother was when he was in Fujian, such a deep water, he just pulled his trousers and said that he would go down, even I sighed to myself, no wonder Xiao Qing likes the second brother so much, and he has to protect the second brother so hard." ”

It was the first time she had heard Chu Shaoyuan talk about these things, Chanyi's eyes widened, and she looked at Chu Shaoyuan: "Why haven't you talked about this before? Was it very dangerous at that time? Didn't you say that you went to Fujian to repair the river embankment? Why do you have to go into the water yourself? The second brother is not a river worker, what are you going to do in the water?"

After a series of questions, Chu Shaoyuan didn't know which one to answer.

He smiled: "It's not dangerous, there will inevitably be some inconvenient times when the flood comes, at that time I met my uncle on the riverside to inspect the disaster, my uncle is in Fujian all the year round, and he has long suffered from rheumatism, and his legs hurt in this weather, but he can't rest, the second brother feels sorry for his uncle's body, so he went into the water instead of his uncle to inspect, but then it was good, the river embankment was repaired at the beginning, and some officials from Yunfu went over to cook together, and there were not so many dangerous things." ”

Listening to what he said easily, but Chanyi knew in her heart that it would not be so easy, even the officials in Yunfu City all took care of their own interests, and it was best to be promoted and make a fortune, if there was anything dangerous, most of them were shirked, in the previous life, she had contact with so many female dependents in Yunfu City, and most of them were like this.

From the female dependents, you can see the family style of a family, so Chanyi has never had a good impression of these officials, and there are really not many good officials who can really do practical things for the people and are not afraid of danger.

That's why the uncle was so valued by the emperor, and he was directly promoted to be the governor, which can be regarded as a feudal official.

But she didn't want to say much about these things, she just nodded and moved on to other things: "I don't know how the eldest brother is fighting in Fujian, I haven't received a letter from the eldest brother this year, Sister Fei is going to give birth in a few days, and the eldest brother can't even go to see his own child, it's really a little ......."

Chu Shaoyuan thought of the news from Fujian, and suddenly frowned, "I originally thought that the battle in Fujian was very easy to fight, but it was about to be stalemate for half a year, and it was still the same as half a year ago, there was no big deal, it seems that it will take a while to reach a conclusion, but you don't have to worry, there is an uncle in Fujian to take care of, and there will be nothing wrong." ”

Chan Yi just sighed a little, and when she heard him say this, she naturally understood that the affairs in the court were not something she could control, so she threw these thoughts aside.

"Yishu, how do you say I should reply to the letter? Sister Qing asked me if I was okay here, I didn't have anything bad, but I was a little tired of Gu Manman making trouble all day long, and the palace could be repaired after the New Year, but the furniture we brought here was not enough, and the furniture here was not very suitable, so it was really annoying. ”

She chattered and asked Jinping to fetch the paper, ink, pen and inkstone, and absentmindedly sharpen the ink.

Chu Shaoyuan smiled, stretched out his hand to take the ink strip in her hand, and said slowly: "Don't worry, how do you want to write slowly, I forgot to tell you, Ning Guogong has already agreed to the marriage with the Zhou family, the young master of the Zhuo family has changed, and there will be no more of these moths to make trouble in the future, as for the furniture, you don't have to worry, what kind of furniture do you want, I will let people find it, and you will always find the right furniture, just go for the layout of the house, and you don't have to worry about the money." ”

The Ma family had already taken out the salt well and the Ma gang in their hands, and while Chu Shaoyuan took over, he also gave the Ma family benefits, so she didn't have to worry about using a large amount of silver money during this time, but Chanyi thought that the things she found outside must cost a lot of money, so she was unwilling to let him find them.

It's just that there is no better idea than this, so I had to give up, and sighed lightly: "Gu Manman and Zhou Mo are also a match, the wicked have their own wicked grinding, this sentence is really true at all, fortunately, no matter what they do, they have nothing to do with us." ”

After a few words of gossip, Chan Yi picked up the pen and began to reply, Duanli's little face was full of seriousness, as if she was criticizing the folds.

Chu Shaoyuan looked playful, and couldn't help but reach out and poke her cheek.

"Don't make trouble!" Chan Yi slapped his hand down and raised her eyes to look at him, "Do you think it's better for me to send a longevity lock or a piece of jade to the past?" I don't know if Sister Fei's belly is a little Langjun or a little lady, if you know, you can also prepare in advance. ”

Chu Shaoyuan said with a smile: "Then it's all ready, just send it over together, no matter whether it's a little Langjun or a little lady, there can always be a foolproof." ”

Chanyi glared at him, in front of the family is not aware of the cost of firewood and rice, the longevity lock is good, find a craftsman with exquisite craftsmanship, take the gems or tourmaline he brought to make a longevity lock, but the jade is not easy to find, the second she can't look down on the second, the better ones are difficult to find, and the price is not expensive to find, it is really annoying.

However, she still made two preparations, and when the letter arrived in Yunfu City, Xie Feiyun opened it and couldn't help but smile.

She took the letter and said to Xie: "Auntie, look at this monkey spirit Wanwan, obviously she is lazy, but she also used the prince as an excuse, saying that 'it is not good for a man's family to be too lazy, so she made the decision to separate the account books', she used to be in charge of the account books at home, but after getting married, she was lazy, and this, 'I don't know if Sister Fei's belly is a little nephew or a little niece, so she prepared an object by herself, if it is a man and a woman, it will not be disappointed'," Xie Feiyun read this, laughing and fell," She couldn't conceive two in my belly? Where is she giving me gifts, obviously urging me to have a few more!"

Xie couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "This monkey, the bigger he gets, the more he loves foreign appearances." ”

Xie Feiyun looked down the letterhead, looking a little dignified.

Seeing her look like this, Xie Shi's heart jumped, and he couldn't help asking, "What else did you say in the evening?"

Xie Feiyun sighed: "Wanwan said that I bought two four-entry houses in Yizhou City, and planned to renovate and repair them after the first month, but I didn't have some good furniture ornaments. ”

A prince's house has only four entrances, and it is afraid that it will make people laugh when they say it, and I don't know how hard it is to live there at night.

Xie Feiyun sighed silently in his heart.

Xie said: "It's not as comfortable as going out at home, and I don't know how long it will take for her to come back this time, Yunfu City still has her dowry, and she has children in the future, I don't know what to do." ”

Xie Feiyun knew that Xie was thinking seriously, and persuaded softly: "Aunt doesn't have to worry about Wanwan, Jiren has her own natural appearance, you forgot that when you were a child, in the Big Buddha Temple, the host showed her the face, saying that her life is extremely expensive, and she can always turn evil into good fortune in case of trouble, so don't worry, she will definitely be able to come back in the future." ”

Xie Shi smiled and nodded, but he couldn't say this anymore, otherwise people would hear it, and they would think they were arguing about the position.

"I don't know what is missing there in the evening, doesn't it mean that Yishu's family is also with them? ”

Xie's heart was full of worries, afraid that they would not get along with their daughter and affect the relationship between their daughter and son-in-law, but such worries could not be said clearly, so they had to use these ways to express them.

Xie Feiyun knew her mother-in-law's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Wanwan said that Mrs. Yan is a very kind old man, and the cousin of the Yan family is not very good, but her temperament is first-class and good, since she said so, it must be like this, you don't know, where will Wanwan boast about a person she hates?"

Especially in the family letter, I wouldn't do this kind of thing.

Xie smiled and nodded, but as a mother, and so far away from her daughter, she would inevitably worry about whether her daughter was doing well outside, so even if she saw the letter, but she didn't see it with her own eyes, she still had to worry.

When the family letter came to Chanyi's hand with the things, the first month had already passed, and it was February.

The weather in Yizhou City is not as cold as Yunfu, so there is no need to wrap it tightly in February, although there is not much sun in the whole day, so that the climate of Yizhou City is humid and cold, but the renovation of the house has already begun.
