Because the epidemic in the two counties has been peaceful, this winter, there is a lot of joy in the capital, and everyone is preparing for a good year.

In Jiang's mansion, because according to what Mrs. Jiang said, this year is the last year of reunion for the whole family, so the whole family does not dare to ignore it, and it is extra grand.

In the east side courtyard, Cao Shi looked at the yellow fox Pikan shoulder that had just been sent over and sighed, picked it up and measured it on Jiang Yanhua's body, touched it again, and asked Bai Guo casually: "This shoulder is not the meaning of Gongzhong, right?" ”

Because he hasn't moved out yet, this year the public middle school still made two sets of new clothes for each girl, but this fox fur is rich and rich, and the public is reluctant to pay this money.

Bai Guo knew where the fur came from, but he didn't show it on his mouth, and only smiled: "It's what the master meant, the two girls and the wife each have one piece." ”

Jiang Yanhua's figure follows the Cao family, although he is not tall, he has shaved shoulders and a thin waist, and he looks very good wearing this fur shoulder. Cao Shi was satisfied, first smiled, and then remembered the annoyance, couldn't help but sigh again, and said a little listlessly: "Can the master make fur clothes?" ”

Bai Guo smiled: "The master said that he didn't love these big hairy clothes, but he didn't call them." Shen Shu's furs were obviously given to Taohua, Jiang Xi originally wanted to leave them to Taohua, or Taohua was the master and divided a few pieces to make clothes for the Cao family and Jiang Yanhua, but Jiang Xi refused to do it.

Cao Shi frowned, and was about to speak, when the outside daylily said, "Madam, the eldest lady is here." ”

Xiaoshi came in with a hand stove, saw Jiang Yanhua's shoulders at a glance, and said with a smile: "When my younger brothers and sisters were idle, it turned out that I was here to make new clothes for my daughter." This fur is good, and Sister Yan is also well dressed. The voice paused slightly, and he said quietly, "You brought it from Jiangnan?" ”

Where is the fur produced in Jiangnan, this is clearly asked knowingly. Helplessly, although the Cao family didn't hear it, he didn't know where the fur came from, so he only smiled and said: "It was our master who asked someone to do it." ”

Xiaoshi heard the master say that someone sent something to Taohua, but I don't know who sent it, I came here at this time, although it was to say something else, but I also wanted to find out who the second room was made again, at this moment seeing that Cao's did not show her mouth, and thought that she was deliberately hiding, she was secretly annoyed in her heart, but her face did not show it at all, and she only smiled: "The third brother will hurt people." Then he changed the subject, "The incident I told my younger brother and sister last time was seven or eight years old." ”

Cao was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Xiao Xiao was talking about marrying the Liu family. It turned out that there had been no movement for a while, and she still thought that this matter was yellow, but who knew that Xiao Shi suddenly mentioned it again, and couldn't help but be overjoyed: "What do you say?" ”

Jiang Yanhua's expression on the side remained unchanged, but he couldn't help but listen. Xiao Shi glanced at her, and said with a smile: "How else can you say that we are such a talent as Sister Yan'er, who still dislikes it?" The meaning of the Liu family is that they want to unite and unite the eight characters. ”

She said this in her mouth, but secretly said in her heart: I don't know what is good about Jiang Yanhua, but she actually fell into Liu Zhijing's eyes. Speaking of which, her psychology is also interesting, if Liu Zhijing comes to propose marriage to Jiang Danhua, then she will never look down on her, but if she lets Jiang Yanhua go, she will feel unwilling again. In the past, I only thought that Jiang Xinghua was an eyesore, but now I regret that there are fewer concubines, if there is an existing concubine, it is better to end this family business.

Cao Shi didn't know what she was thinking, and when she heard that the Liu family was going to merge the eight characters, she immediately smiled: "This is good, Baiguo, go and invite the master." ”

Jiang Xi and Taohua are both in Baicaozhai, and they are studying the acupuncture method in a unique book with Mrs. Jiang. Nowadays, the Jiang family is also an unwritten rule, and when the old lady studies medical skills, he must not be alarmed unless it is a major event. Now that the Cao family sent someone over, even Taohua was startled, and the father and daughter hurriedly resigned from the old lady Jiang and returned to the East Side Courtyard, only to see Cao's face happy, and then he was relieved.

Jiang Yanhua had already hid in the inner room at this time, and when Cao Shi saw Taohua also coming over, although he felt that something was wrong, he couldn't care less about being really happy, and said to Jiang Xi with a smile on his face: "This Geng post still needs the master to write it." ”

Jiang Xi heard that it was Liu Zhijing, and remembered that day when he had a banquet in the front yard, he saw that he was also quite stylish, and he had a good calligraphy and painting, and he liked half of it in his heart. What's more, it's still a Hanlin, even the European Airlines that Mrs. Jiang wanted to say goodbye to Taohua a few days ago, but it's just a showman. It's just that I heard that it was to remarry, and I was a little hesitant.

Xiaoshi was stabbed in the face by Jiang Xi last time, and he was uncomfortable when he saw Jiang Xi, he didn't want to speak, but when he saw Jiang Xi hesitating, he couldn't help but say: "Although it is said to be remarried, but the one in front of him went home because he had no leave, and it is not a match for Yuan in the serious, and Sister Yan was not a steproom in the past, even if it is a New Year's holiday, there is no need to salute the tablet of Yuan match." There is still an unspoken meaning - if it is not for remarriage, this family matter may not be Jiang Yanhua's turn.

Taohua heard the Liu family, but suddenly remembered what Jiang Xinghua had said to her before entering the palace, and said after a little hesitation: "Since you said that you are asking for Geng posts, why don't you invite a matchmaker to come to the door?" ”

The six ceremonies of marriage customs, asking for Geng post is "asking for a name", which should be the second step after "Nacai". According to the rules, it should be the two families who intend to marry first, and then invite the matchmaker to come to the door to propose marriage, and take the goose as a courtesy, so that they can ask for a post and combine the eight characters. But now the rules are quite heavy, and each family has first combined the eight characters, and when they see that there is no hindrance, they will officially propose marriage. But no matter what, even if you ask for Geng Ti, there should be a matchmaker to come to the door. Even if the official media is not invited at this time, there must be one private media.

Xiao Shi is now full of anger when he sees Taohua, and he said patiently: "Now the rules are like this, if it is the official government, the eight characters have not been synthesized, and Sister Yan's reputation is good?" Speaking of which, the Liu family entrusted me, and I am also a matchmaker. ”

Taohua frowned: "The one in front of you has been behind for a few years?" Why not? ”

Xiao Shi was even more angry: "Sister Tao, how can you hear these words from a daughter who has not been out of the cabinet, don't ask, it's not a rule to spread it." ”

Taohua sneered: "The eldest aunt is really funny when she speaks, I have even been to the Chengenbo Mansion by order, who is not in the rules when it is passed out?" I don't think that's what my aunt said at the beginning. ”

Xiao Shi was choked up, and when he was about to return the mouth, he couldn't find anything to say, so he had to say stupidly: "I heard that I have been married for four or five years, and I don't have any rules on weekdays, and I can't have children because of a bad disease, so I took a break." Third brother and sister, I still have something to do there, you can discuss this matter yourself, whether it will be successful or not, ask the girl to go and tell me. "Then he got up and left."

Cao Shi hurriedly sent a few steps, and then hurriedly turned back: "Master, this Geng post-"

Taohua didn't say it in front of Xiao's just now, but now that people are gone, they don't have to worry about anything: "Madam, this matter has to be considered again." You have to ask the one who was put back in front of you what was going on. After all, after being married for four or five years, there must always be some love between husband and wife, if it is just for the sake of not having a bad disease, why not get along? In this way, it is a little cool to take people back. ”

At the beginning, Jiang Xinghua asked her to be wary of Liu Zhijing, but she didn't take it to heart, and Gaine felt that she would not have anything to do with the Liu family. If you had known this was the case, you should have inquired earlier.

Cao Shi hurriedly said: "Didn't you say that she was unruly?" ”

Taohua sneered: "Unruly? It's even harder to say. Mrs. don't be too anxious, now that the year is over, anything can be moved back, let's inquire about the situation first. Marriage is a big deal, don't miss Sister Yan. ”

The three words of informality are really a big killer for women, and more importantly, it can be unwarranted at any time, and sometimes you can't say it clearly. Therefore, Taohua was disgusted when she heard these three words, but she believed Jiang Xinghua's words again.

Cao Shi couldn't say Taohua, so he had to turn his gaze to Jiang Xi: "Didn't the master see Liu Hanlin in the outer courtyard, and said that his calligraphy and painting are good?" ”

Jiang Xi hesitated a little: "Looking at his calligraphy and painting, there is a bit of style." ”

"It is said that words are like people-" Cao Shi listened to Jiang Xi's words, as if he had obtained a treasure, and said busily, "The master looks at his calligraphy and painting with style and bones, it must be good." ”

Words are like people, but they are not 100% effective. However, the Cao family was in a hurry like this, which always made people a little suspicious, Taohua frowned slightly: "It's just a push back, before the end of the year, it's not easy to discuss these things, why is my wife so anxious?" The major events of a lifetime should be cautious. ”

Jiang Xi was originally a little wavering, but after listening to his daughter's words, he said, "Sister Tao is reasonable. I told my sister-in-law that I was too busy a year ago, and I would mention this matter after the New Year, and I would also find someone to inquire. ”

Although Jiang Yanhua hid in the inner room, the words outside could be heard clearly, and only when Jiang Xi and Taohua went out did they come out. Cao Shi was anxious, and when he saw his daughter, he couldn't help but cry: "My son, why are you so miserable......

Jiang Yanhua was already a little anxious, but she felt even more upset when she saw her crying, and reluctantly said: "Mother doesn't have to worry, what my sister said makes sense, it's better to be cautious." ”

Cao Shi was even more anxious, and when he saw that Bai Guo was not in the house, he said, "What if your sister falls in love with this family business?" ”

Jiang Yanhua was stunned: "How could it be-"

"How not?" Cao couldn't help but say what Xiao Shi said a few days ago, "The young and the old are orderly, it should have been your turn to finish Sister Tao'er's affairs first, but now Sister Tao hasn't moved." Even if she doesn't fancy this family matter, I'm afraid that she won't be happy in her heart, and she wants to suppress your matter. If it's someone else, it's just that, you're still young, as long as both sides are interested, you won't be afraid to delay it for another two years. But Liu Hanlin's family - he is already old, if it drags on, I am afraid he will not be able to wait. "It's not just his age, why can't he find relatives when he is single, he may not just look at Jiang Yanhua.

If it was said that Taohua wanted to rob this family business, Jiang Yanhua didn't believe it, but if Taohua was unhappy and deliberately suppressed this matter, Jiang Yanhua felt that there was some truth in what he said. In the final analysis, this family business can be regarded as her high climbing, so she suffers from gains and losses in her heart, and she can't calm down. It's just that Jiang Xi has spoken, the marriage is a big event, the order of her parents, what else can she say?

The mother and daughter were sitting opposite each other and worried, Poria hurriedly came in from outside, and when she saw that Bai Guo was not there, she said: "Mrs., the second girl, the maid of the eldest lady of Fang Cai quietly told the slave maid that Liu Hanlin has other families to talk about, and it is because the third young master is friendly with him that this family matter has come to our family...... Although the eldest girl has good intentions, this matter ......"

These words were said word by word in Cao's heart, and he couldn't help but be so anxious that he wanted to cry again: "Then what can I do?" The master only listens to Sister Tao, I say ten words, and I can't compare to Sister Tao'er! ”

Poria is now looking forward to Jiang Yanhua getting a good family affair day and night, and she can marry with her, now it is clearly an opportunity, how can she miss it: "The slave maid has a short-term opinion, I just don't know whether to say it or not...... "That is the Hanlin family, maybe he will be able to be a big official in the future, with Jiang Yanhua's background in the Chen family, where can he find such a good family affair?"

"Speak quickly!" Cao couldn't wait, "If you have any good way to convince the master, I will naturally not treat you badly in the future." ”

"The slaves and maids are all for the second girl, not for any reward-" Poria explained tightly before saying, "According to the slave maid, the master may not be unwilling to do this family business, but I heard that the eldest girl is reasonable, and he is also concerned about the girl, so I have to inquire about one or two." If the slave and maid are not mistaken, this thing will be done after all, but there are many people in the Liu family who propose marriage, if the Liu family feels that the wife is neglectful, it will not be good......"

"I know this, isn't it that the master is unwilling now?"

Poria smiled and said, "The master refuses, isn't there still a wife?" Marriage is a big event, the order of the parents, can't the wife be the master? ”

Cao Shi was deflated when he heard this: "This, how can this be made?" How can I hide the truth that my lord is in charge of my own affairs...... I thought you had a good idea...... "It turned out to be a bad idea."

Poria hurriedly said: "It's not that I want my wife to hide from my master, but just write a post, and my wife can always write it." This head sent Geng Tie to co-author the eight characters first, and the old man finished asking about nothing, so it was naturally fine, so he didn't wait for the Liu family. ”

"It's the best of both worlds." Cao's eyes lit up suddenly. Geng post is just to write the girl's name and birth date, although the rule is to ask the father and brother to write, but in fact, it is just a post, and anyone who can write can write it. Although Cao can't write, Jiang Yanhua can.

"It's just that there are a lot of people in this courtyard, and if someone sees it, it will reach the ears of the master......" Cao Shi was just about to ask someone to polish the ink to write a post, and hesitated again.

Poria secretly hated Cao for being cowardly and incompetent. At the beginning, she was willing to disobey Taohua's order to open the door of the warehouse for the Cao family, but she saw that the Cao family gave birth to a son and became more and more confident, so she threw herself over. Who knew that Cao Shi was so useless, and she was stepped on step by step by Taohua, which made her nowhere to stand now. Now it is still three steps back like this, but I am afraid that the cooked duck will fly.

"If the wife is afraid that the old man will find out, she simply writes the eight characters without writing the name, and quietly gives it to the eldest wife, even if someone sees it by chance, I don't know whose eight characters it is? Anyway, there was no matchmaker sent over there, and the wife should not write the name of the second girl, even if there are any changes in the future, it will not hurt the girl's reputation. ”

This method sounded proper, and Cao Shi looked at Jiang Yanhua with his eyes. Jiang Yanhua was already willing in his heart, so he only lowered his head and didn't speak. Cao's still knows a little bit about his daughter, and when he saw this, he knew that she agreed, and hurriedly asked Poria to study ink: "My mother can't write, so you have to write one yourself." Poria was quietly sent to the eldest lady, don't let the master and Sister Tao know. ”

Jiang Xi really never dreamed that the Cao family would dare to ask Jiang Yanhua to write eight characters and send it over, and was asking Taohua in the room on the other side: "What do you think is wrong?" ”

Taohua couldn't explain how Jiang Xinghua knew that the Liu family was wrong, so she had to say: "I just think I should be cautious." Renouncing his wife is not a trivial matter, if it is really the one in front of him, it will be fine, if not, the Liu family is probably not a generous family. It's not that I'm saying bad things about Sister Yan, she doesn't have any means, if she meets that harsh person, she will have to suffer. Now that his wife only sees the word Hanlin in her eyes, she is also dizzy. If Sister Yan doesn't have a good time in the future, what will she do besides crying? Moreover, there is no need to worry about this fact, seeing that the New Year is coming, where is there a time to discuss relatives. Why don't I ask the prince to help inquire about the news, and when the New Year is over, if the Liu family is really good, wouldn't it be good to calmly discuss the relatives at that time? And don't say that my father doesn't respect my elders, my aunt is a matchmaker, I really don't feel at ease. ”

It's nothing else, as soon as he said that the matchmaker made by Xiaoshi was unreliable, it really came to Jiang Xi's heart, and when he nodded and said, "Just do as you say." It's just that the king of labor has just sent those furs, so we should send something over. ”

Taohua pursed his lips and smiled: "He quietly asked someone to send it over, but he didn't want to alarm people." Dad doesn't have to make a big deal about sending anything back. ”

Jiang Xi didn't think it was very good: "This is not polite either." Turning his head, he caught a glimpse of Mint smiling on the side, and felt a little strange, "Why are you smiling at this girl, still doing this?" ”

Mint couldn't help but smile and said, "Master, the girl has always been the most polite." "Naturally, there is something to send back. The old man is really a real person, and he didn't even see anything on the side of the pillow.

Although it was his daughter, Jiang Xi was not good at looking around the house, and he didn't find a roll of needle and thread on the side of the pillow, but a man's belt. But no matter how confused he was, when he heard Mint say this, he saw his daughter's face flushed, and suddenly understood, and said with a smile from ear to ear: "Then you can make your own decision, Dad doesn't care." ”

Taohua sent her father out of the door, turned around and slapped mint: "Just your mouth is fast!" ”

Mint covered her mouth and smiled: "The slave is just reminding the master." ”

Jiang Bohua ran over from the side room, stretched his head in and learned Taohua's words: "Just your mouth is fast!" He has grown taller this year, and gradually has a little bit of a big child's meaning, but his little face is still round, like a noisy bun that has just been steamed.

Kikyo chased after him with a fox skin shoulder: "Brother, the clothes haven't been tried yet." ”

This shoulder is naturally made of fur sent by Shen Shu, Taohua specially asked someone to set the fox tail around the collar, and the long tail hair tufted Jiang Bohua's small round face, which looked particularly festive. Taohua couldn't help but pinch his little round face: "It's not good to try on clothes, running like this on a cold day, you have to take medicine if the wind blows." ”

Jiang Bohua stuck out his tongue like a puppy, and his face wrinkled into a bun: "Brother Bai didn't catch a cold, he didn't take medicine!" ”

He is now very fluent in speech, and occasionally pops out some adult-like words: "Sister, were the clothes given by the prince's brother?" ”

Taohua couldn't help but laugh: "Yes." Do you like it? ”

Jiang Bohua touched his fluffy collar: "I like it." Bai Ge'er gave the tangram to the prince's brother. "The truth of courtesy, he just read it in a book a few days ago.

Taohua touched his face and couldn't help but pinch it again: "Brother Bai is so good." However, Brother Wang Ye doesn't play Tangram, so Brother Bai keeps it to play by himself. Also, don't tell people that the prince's brother sent things, and don't call it that at home, just say the prince. "The child is open-mouthed, you say he understands, he doesn't know some things that should not be said, say he doesn't understand, occasionally hear a few words, he really knows who you are talking about.

"That-Brother Bai has nothing to ...... to deliver" Jiang Baihua wrinkled his face again, looking very distressed, "Thank you......"

"My sister will send it for Bai Ge'er." Momoka took the belt rolled up by the pillow and unfolded it. The belt has been basically embroidered, and the black base is a silver treasure pattern, with blue embellishments in the middle, and gold threads are rolling on the edges.

This belt was embroidered for five days. She was interested in what she had never done in her previous life, but she had never been so focused on needlework. Now that I look at it myself, I also think that it looks really good, and it is even more exquisite than the things I embroidered before.

Mint smiled and quipped, "The slave and maid saw that the girl's needlework in the past was not as good as this." ”

Taohua's face turned red, rolled up her belt again, and carefully wrapped it in a cloth: "You must have gone to the kitchen to steal honey recently, right?" ”

Kikyo covered his mouth and smiled, Jiang Bohua still didn't understand, and said stupidly: "There is no honey in the kitchen." "He's talking about the small kitchen where the dim sum is made in the East Side Courtyard.

Taohua snorted and laughed, hugged her brother and rubbed it: "Little fool melon ......"

Jiang Bohua didn't know why, but he bravely stretched out his little fat hand to resist, the two sisters and brothers were laughing, and a girl outside came to deliver something: "It was rewarded by Jieyu Niangniang in the palace, and it was pointed out to the girl." There are also royal maidens who also rewarded some. ”

The thing was divided into two parts. Jiang Meihua is two satins, and it looks good to make spring clothes. Jiang Xinghua's share was just a horse, but when the mint was revealed, he realized that something was wrong: "Girl, it's packed with other ingredients." ”

Taohua also went over to look, only to see that this satin looked like an ordinary palace satin on the outside, but it was wrapped in a fine Shu brocade, and the outside was just to hide people's eyes.

This Shu brocade is worth Jiang Meihua's two satins, and Mint can't help but be a little surprised: "The fourth girl is really worried about the girl's ......"

Taohua only lifted it up and looked at it, then smiled and put it down: "It seems that the fourth sister is doing well in the palace." Put it away, don't let anyone know. "So as not to cause trouble to Jiang Xinghua.
