Chapter 221

Zhao Changqing sent Hong'er to send a letter to Wang Hanlin's family, and Mrs. Wang's family naturally responded, and chatted with her daughter that night, "Ming'er wears that newly-made red dress." ”

Miss Wang said, "Wearing that, like a bride, how embarrassing." ”

Mrs. Wang said, "What's so embarrassing about this, you are the age of flowers, so you should wear brighter." Don't wear these dark clothes all day long, it's not festive at all. ”

Miss Wang said, "Got it." ”

The next day, Miss Wang wore a peony-colored dress, which was not as festive as the red, but lively.

Mrs. Wang reprimanded, "I didn't obey obediently, and I put more rouge on my face." ”

Miss Wang said, "I have such a good complexion, what kind of rouge do I use?" ”

Mrs. Wang took a closer look and saw that her daughter was indeed red lips and white teeth, black eyes and green eyebrows, and she was in her good years, so she really didn't need to be modified with fat powder. Mrs. Wang took out two gold bracelets and put them on her daughter, and said, "This Zhao An is the sister of Zhao Gongzi, and I heard Zhao Gongzi say that it is the same as his own sister." ”

Miss Wang said, "When we grew up together, we must have different feelings. ”

Mrs. Wang smiled, her daughter's face was pretending to be peaceful, but she kept all the affairs of the Zhao family in mind, and she thought that she was also interested in this family matter.

Zhao Changqing arrived at Wang's house not early or late, this kind of visit looked at each other, it came too early, it seemed too urgent, and it was not good; If you go late, you don't seem to take other people's girls seriously, which is even worse. Therefore, Zhao Changqing calculated the time very much, and the time to arrive at the Wang family was just right.

Zhao Changqing has never been gorgeous, only three or two golden hairpins on his head, but he is by no means frugal, today is to see each other, the color of the dress is old and fragrant, and the cuffs and collar are embroidered with continuous roses, adding a little liveliness. It's just that no matter how old Zhao Changqing is, his age is there, and he is really not old. Especially Mrs. Wang's sideburns have some silver threads, Zhao Changqing smiled, "Say hello to you." ”

Mrs. Wang hurriedly said, "Mrs. Xia will sit in the house." ”

The Wang family's family background is average, and there are also maids and mothers-in-law, so they will not be cold. Yahuan offered tea fruit, and Mrs. Wang smiled, "I don't know what tea Mrs. Xia likes to drink, this is a fragrant piece from my hometown, Mrs. Xia can taste it." ”

Zhao Changqing took a sip and smiled, "Good tea." You are from Anhui. ”

Mrs. Wang smiled, "Our lord's ancestral home is Huizhou. ”

"Huizhou produces good ink, outstanding people, and a place of cultural movement." Zhao Changqing smiled and presented the gift list, "Seeing that it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is not a valuable thing, it is all some soil on my Zhuangzi, don't be polite to me." ”

Mrs. Wang smiled, "Let you break the bank." ”

"That's the way it is." Zhao Changqing said softly, "Liguo is in Hanlin, he has just become an official, I was very worried before, I was afraid that someone would bully him young, but later I often heard him say that Lord Wang often instructed him, and I was very grateful." It's just that I couldn't get acquainted before, and it was not easy to come to the door suddenly, but this time I have the opportunity to get acquainted, and you and I are the juniors. I am of the same clan as Lizi Liguo, our two families are only separated by a wall, and we grew up together, and we are the same as our own sisters and brothers. ”

Although these words were kind words, Zhao Changqing said them very sincerely. Mrs. Wang said in her heart, listening to the old man say that Zhao An people are quite wealthy, and there is no arrogance in his description, no wonder Zhao Gongzi invited her to look at her, and she looks like a proper person. Mrs. Wang smiled, "I often hear people talk about the northwest, but I haven't been there, I don't know how the scenery is?" ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "I was born in the border city since I was a child, and I don't know anywhere else, but I have been to Chengdu Mansion, and now I am in the imperial capital." Our border city does not dare to compare with the imperial capital, and it is on par with the prosperity of Chengdu Mansion. Saying this, how many people can brag for me, in the past, when the border city was trading with Ximan, the big merchants of the whole country and the south of the country all had businesses in the border city, and the tea silk in the south of the Yangtze River, the grain in the north of the Yangtze River, and the mountain ginseng and deer in the east of Liaodong were not uncommon in the border city. Now that our dynasty is at war with the Western Barbarians, trade is prohibited, and the weather in the border city is not as good as before, but it is by no means a barren land. The climate is colder than the imperial capital, and the summer is not as hot as the imperial capital. The people in our border city are bold and straightforward, and their customs are slightly different from those of the imperial capital, but they are not much different. ”

Mrs. Wang smiled, "I heard that Mrs. Xia was born in a martial arts family. ”

"Yes, my ancestor had a small five-grade honor, which was the last generation when he passed on to his grandfather, and he worked his own when he arrived at his father. is that in our clan, the ancestors all started with martial arts, and there is a brother in Liguo's family, named Lizi. It was not easy for them to have a lot of brothers when they were young. My aunt may have felt that Liguo was admitted to the Jinshi at a young age, and his talent was already outstanding, and his brother Lizi was the same age as me, and when the pears were young, the talent was even better. When I was a child, I studied with my husband, and he went to my house to play, and I could memorize it after listening to it. When I learned to play the flute, he would pick a willow leaf next door and play the same tune. Zhao Changqing sighed lightly, "If you put someone else's home, even if it is an ordinary family, their brothers are just as good." It's a pity that their parents passed away very early, and Lizi is a strong person, so he didn't study anymore and went out to earn money for Liguo to study. After the family situation improved, Lizi donated silver to the academy in our border city every year, and when there was no money, he donated less, and when he had money, he donated more, he was looking forward to if there were poor children who could get some support. Speaking of which, when the pear fruit went to the imperial capital of Chunqiu, the pear accompanied him, and before he came, he worshiped the Bodhisattvas in the border city, and when he arrived in the imperial capital, he worshiped the Bodhisattvas in the imperial capital again, and he looked forward to the pear fruit. Fortunately, now that Liguo has won the test, he finally lived up to his brother's expectations. ”

Mrs. Wang only knew that Liguo's parents had passed away, her relatives were gone, and the two brothers depended on each other and didn't want to have these inside affairs. Zhao Changqing said emotionally, Mrs. Wang was sad to hear it, almost didn't cry, and said, "The eldest prince Zhao is really respectable." ”

Zhao Changqing said, "How many people only look at the rich and the poor in their eyes, in fact, if you want me to say, a family has one heart, brothers and brothers, even if you are born in a poor situation, you will be willing to come one day." We are no more than rich and noble families, all of them, only two hands. ”

Mrs. Wang was already very moved, wiped her tears and said, "We are all the same." "His family is not rich.

Zhao Changqing also met Miss Wang, and discussed some embroidery and calligraphy with Miss Wang. After lunch at Wang's house at noon, Zhao Changqing got up and said goodbye.

Mrs. Wang personally sent her out, Zhao Changqing persuaded her to stay, and Mrs. Wang only sent her out of the hospital and ordered the old grandmother around her to send her off. After Zhao Changqing left, Mrs. Wang asked her daughter, "What do you think?" ”

Miss Wang said, "I used to hear that Zhao Anren was a person who killed the enemy, but I only thought that she was powerful in martial arts, and I didn't want to know how to play piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and female red needles." ”

Mrs. Wang smiled, "I also let you know that there are people outside the people." ”

There is no first in the text, and there is no second in the martial arts. Miss Wang smiled, "There are more people who are stronger than me, and Zhao An is not the only one." ”

Mrs. Wang smiled, "I'm asking you what you think of Zhao Gongzi's family?" ”

Miss Wang was slightly ashamed and said, "I have to meet again." ”

Mrs. Wang smiled, "It's also easy, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I asked Mrs. Xia to come to the house to talk, and let her call Zhao Gongzi, and it doesn't hurt to meet." ”

Miss Wang smiled and didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.

When Wang Hanlin came back in the evening, Mrs. Wang told Zhao Changqing about his visit, and Mrs. Wang sighed, "At first, I only thought that Zhao Gongzi was a young man, his family was rich, and he lived in a big mansion in Sijin, so I was worried that our family was not very compatible." Now I know that the Zhao family is not easy, and the character of the eldest son of Zhao is even more respectable. ”

Wang Hanlin said, "It's rare. ”

Mrs. Wang said, "Yes." I thought about it, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, as long as Zhao Gongzi's character is suitable, I am willing to do this family matter. ”

Wang Hanlin said, "Liguo has followed me to repair books for half a year, and she is a steady and meticulous person. Don't worry, my daughter's lifelong event, I won't see the wrong person. ”

Mrs. Wang smiled, "That's good." ”

Zhao Changqing went home, and in the evening of the same day, Liguo came out of Hanlin and did not return to his house, so he followed Xia Wen to Xia's house to inquire about the news. Zhao Changqing smiled, "Miss Wang's eyebrows are delicate, she has learned all the female red needles, she is very good at needlework, and she is also familiar with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she can be said to be generous." If there is no accident, we will meet after the Mid-Autumn Festival. ”

Liguo was a little nervous, "Then I have to make two new clothes." Sister Qing, what color do you say I wear looks good? ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Lake Blue is very good." ”

Liguo inquired with Zhao Changqing, "What did you say?" ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Praise you, say that you are benevolent, righteous, courteous, wise and trustworthy." ”

Liguo's round face was full of smiles, "That's a bit of an exaggeration." Then he asked, "Sister Qing, you see, the girl of the Wang family has a good character?" ”

Zhao Changqing knew what Liguo was worried about, she smiled, "Don't worry, I said that pears make money for you to study, Mrs. Wang was very moved, and said that Pears' character is respectable." ”

Liguo's heart fell to the ground, and she asked in a low voice, "Have you said anything about my sister?" ”

Zhao Changqing was silent for a moment, "This matter is not urgent. If people who don't understand the reason are easy to misunderstand, you don't have to pick yourself, and it's not too late to talk about it later. "Zhao Da is such a rotten person, Zhao Changqing doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with Xiao Lihua, but this world doesn't think so. Moreover, Little Pear Flower has been removed from the family tree. When talking about kissing, there is no need to mention it for the time being, this is not a conspiracy, it is just human nature. Zhao Changqing hopes that Liguo can marry a girl worthy of him.

Liguo was a little stunned, and Zhao Changqing persuaded him, "No one is perfect, when it comes to kissing, it is no more glamorous, and the Wang family will not be self-defeating, right?" Have an understanding of each other first, as long as you treat her well in the future, Miss Wang is not an unreasonable person, and she will definitely understand your sister's affairs. ”

Liguo also has its own city, and smiled, "too." ”

Zhao Changqing straightened his clothes and said, "Don't be listless, go back and make two new clothes." I still have to ask someone to inquire about the Wang family, and getting married is not a simple matter. ”

Liguo smiled, "Sister Qing, your tone is really like a tricky sister-in-law." ”

Zhao Changqing gave him a light touch, "A boy with no conscience." ”

In a blink of an eye, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it was also Xia Wu's fifteenth birthday, there were two tables of wine at home, and gifts were given to each courtyard, and Zhao Lian also embroidered a purse for Xia Wu. When admiring the moon in the garden, Mrs. Xia mentioned, "In a blink of an eye, Ah Wu is also a child, and it's time to start a family." ”

Mrs. Xia smiled, "Ah Wen is late when he got married, and Ah Wu is only fifteen, so he is not in a hurry." The old man compared his article before, saying that he was still a little short of Xiucai. ”

Mrs. Xia said, "Start a family, start a family, start a family and then start a business." Ah Wen had an accident at home back then, and the marriage was not in Shuzhong, so it was too late. The granddaughter-in-law said, isn't this the reason? ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Each family is different, there is no conflict between starting a family and starting a business, and we are late in getting married in border cities." No, I just went to show the pear fruit a few days ago. A Bai's good day is set for next year. Our family is a scholarly family, and the second brother has a fame, and he will be able to go further. ”

Mrs. Xia said busily, "Isn't this the reason, the master also means this, even if he is a showman, he will look good when he says that he is pro." ”

Mrs. Xia's face was not very good-looking, and Aunt Xia said sourly, "Sister-in-law is used to being high-spirited. ”

Mrs. Xia smiled, "This has nothing to do with the level of heart, they are all mothers, that is, Mrs. Gu, don't you also want to tell Sister Lian that she is a good family." ”

Zhao Lian looked away in embarrassment, Mrs. Xia changed the topic with a smile and asked Zhao Changqing, "How is the girl from Wang Hanlin's family?" ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "I look very good, my eyebrows are clear, and my speech and demeanor are generous." ”

"That's good. Liguo, this child, is promising. Mrs. Xia smiled, "Let's also cut the moon cakes in this palace to taste the taste, it is the first time in my life that I have eaten moon cakes made in the palace." "During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Queen Song rewarded several female gentlemen of the five princesses, and Zhao Changqing also got a share, including palace-made moon cakes.

When everyone talked about moon cakes, Mrs. Xia's heart was not very smooth, and she secretly said, she really gave Zhao Changqing a big gold bracelet for nothing, a big bracelet of ten taels of pure gold, and spent this lot of money, but she couldn't buy Zhao Changqing. However, Zhao Changqing is thriving now, and Mrs. Xia has nothing to do with her, so she has to endure this breath and eat moon cakes first.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Mrs. Xia called Xia Wu to the room and said, "You are a young man, your cousin is looking to say kiss, you are a sensible child, you don't need me to say more to understand, but it's not good to accept your cousin's needlework, bring it to me." ”

"I'll take it with me wherever I go, and I'll ask my mother to bring it over in a while." Xia Wudao, "I also received her needle and thread for the first time in my life. ”

Seeing that her son didn't mean anything else at all, Mrs. Xia relieved herself and smiled, "Your cousin is going to talk about the people of her mother-in-law's family, so she is naturally stable." "If you want Mrs. Xia to say that the imperial capital raises people, just look at Zhao Lian and know that after coming to the imperial capital, the problem of robbing people and things has at least changed a lot.

Xia Wu asked, "Someone's home?" ”

"How do I know that your grandmother and aunt are in charge."

Xia Wu didn't ask anymore.

However, Zhao Lian was unhappy for a few days, and said to her mother in private, "Uncle doesn't mean that at all, why should we be dead-faced, it's not that I can't get married." ”

Aunt Xia said, "Which one of you can marry to have such a big family business!" Think about it, this house, with thousands of acres of fertile land, will be yours in the future. ”

Zhao Lian said, "It's just that this breath is difficult!" ”

Aunt Xia said, "If it's difficult, you have to go down, and if you can't bear it, think about it in the future, what else can't you bear." ”

Zhao Lian let out a heavy sigh.

Zhao Changqing didn't pay much attention to Aunt Xia's mother and daughter's calculations, and took Mr. Huang back, she asked someone to inquire that the Wang family already had a letter, Zhao Changqing and Liguo said, "The Wang family has lived in Crescent Hutong for more than 20 years, and the neighbors don't get along badly. It's Miss Wang, who had been married once, and the man's family died of a sudden illness before she passed the door. "If you are picky, it is difficult to keep it, not to mention Miss Wang. Zhao Changqing said, "The man thinks that Miss Wang doesn't go to his house to watch the widow, and he goes to the door several times to make trouble." ”

Liguo didn't care, and said, "This Lord Wang has already told me. People have good and bad luck, and it's no wonder that Miss Wang. It's just to make trouble, it's hard to come back from the dead. ”

Zhao Changqing said, "Let's know it in our hearts, Miss Wang is either a doctor or a doctor, and it is also a medicine doctor who does not die, and there is no way to do it." "The Wang family has sent a post, asking Zhao Changqing to bring the pear fruit over to drink tea, Zhao Changqing and the pear fruit said the day, and the pear fruit is all answered.

It was also quite successful to go to Xia's house to meet, Liguo was young, but her appearance was not as handsome as Su Bai, she was also tall and burly, with big shoulders and a round waist, which added to the style.

Mrs. Wang smiled when she saw it, but her mouth never closed.

Zhao Changqing said in his heart, this is really the mother-in-law watching her son-in-law, the more she watches, the more interesting it becomes.

Liguo showed her mother-in-law, and Miss Wang also glanced through the screen, so Liguo went to the study to talk to Lord Wang and Wang Gongzi, and the female dependents talked in the inner house.

The woman has a white hairpin on her head, a few silver hairpins and silver rings, and her clothes are also plain, followed by a young woman, and a few maids and daughters-in-law are all dressed in plain clothes, opening their mouths is crying, tears are flowing and indecent, and the people of the Wang family can't stop them, the woman cried, "I don't expect my daughter-in-law to guard Brother Wang'er, and I can't let the soil on Brother Wang'er's grave not dry, so my daughter-in-law will wear a skirt and marry someone else." The wife of the in-laws, you can't be too unconscionable. ”

Mrs. Wang almost fainted, and Wang Gongzi was furious, pointing at the group of women, "My sister didn't marry into your family, what are you doing, you have come to the door three or four times, it is difficult to force my sister to death!" ”

The woman's eyes were red and swollen, and she said in a sharp voice, "The family affairs have already been decided, even if they haven't passed through the door, they are also the daughter-in-law of my Chen family!" A year's filial piety should always be kept! It's a shame that your Wang family is still a scholar, my son just died, and you are so anxious to find your next home! Don't deceive people too much! ”

Mrs. Chen obviously came prepared, and went directly to Liguo, saying, "Lord Zhao is a foreigner, don't deceive this unknown person!" Such an unchaste woman, if you have a plague in the future, will immediately turn her face and forsake you! ”

Liguo's face was not very good-looking, and she said, "Mrs. Chen, I am in the law, not based on marriage, but on marriage." Miss Wang has to enter your house before she can be counted as a member of your family. I already knew what you said, so I won't bother you to remind you. If I mind, I won't come over to discuss my marriage. If I remember correctly, Mrs. Chen's sister-in-law is a widow and remarried to Jinling Garrison, which is Mrs. Chen's mother's family, and there are also uncles' cousins who remarry. Mrs. Chen, everyone is an official person, stay on the line in everything, and see each other in the future. You don't look good like this. ”

Mrs. Wang's tears came down in an uproar. Since the daughter's unfortunate decision to return to the family, the son of the Chen family died of illness, and the Chen family whimsically wanted to take the daughter to the Chen family to watch the widow. God is pitiful, this is the biological daughter who was conceived in October and raised hard, how can Mrs. Wang be willing to let her daughter live that widowhood day. The Wang family did not agree, and the Chen family repeatedly came to make trouble, as long as they heard that the Wang family said that they were married, they would have to come to the door to cry and mourn. It's a good family affair, and it's yellow several times. Otherwise, Mrs. Wang was reluctant to tell her daughter a son-in-law in a border city.

Now when she heard that Liguo was so reasonable and considerate, Mrs. Wang couldn't cry, thinking that her daughter was really bitter, and finally met a good one.

Mrs. Chen really didn't expect to meet Liguo, who didn't mind Miss Wang's previous family affairs, and was dumbfounded at the moment, and was about to open her mouth to howl again. Miss Wang came out of the room at some point, carrying a bucket full of well water, and splashed Mrs. Chen's face all over her body.

Wang Gongzi ordered someone to drive the Chen family out, and the old man Wang was both ashamed and comforted, patted Liguo's shoulder and did not call him a virtuous nephew, and directly changed his name to "virtuous son-in-law".

The family who had been determined to marry came to make trouble like this, Mrs. Wang was embarrassed, took Zhao Changqing's hand and cried, "I'm not unreasonable, I'm just this one daughter, I can't tell her to stay widowed for the rest of her life without marrying." ”

Zhao Changqing comforted Mrs. Wang, "You just have to be relieved, you can see who is who at a glance, and you have to admit that you are unlucky if you have such a person." really took him seriously, he couldn't make a lot of noise, but took advantage of his intentions. It's time for you to live your life to your heart's content. ”

Mrs. Wang said, "God is pitiful, I finally met a reasonable person like you. ”

Because of this farce, the relationship between Liguo and the Wang family was quickly settled verbally, and the auspicious day of Geng Tie was changed to the marriage. Someone sent a letter to Pear, and the cold day of November came to Pear, and the two brothers were tall, and the pear was fatter, and the pear was still the size of a hemp pole.

When Lizi heard that his younger brother had set a girl from the Hanlin family, he was overjoyed, and said to Zhao Changqing with a smile, "This is the way of luck, I gave Liguo a hexagram in Ping'an Temple before I came, and the master said that his peach blossom was in this year or two, and it was really accurate." This kid isn't incompetent. ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Liguo is not young, the auspicious day to go to Xishan Temple, there will be an excellent day in Layue this year, and it is appropriate to marry first, and it is appropriate to marry next year." ”

Riko smiled, "Let's think of one place." She is the daughter of the Hanlin family, and we can't even think about it if we have to put it aside. I can't wronged other people's girls in this employment, I brought some good things, and the new ones I got a few days ago, there is a share for you, and you keep them. ”

Zhao Changqing was not polite to Pear, the two talked about the next job, and talked about the border city, Lizi said, "The family is fine." There is one more thing, my aunt must be embarrassed to tell you, let me tell you, Uncle Yong is going to be a father again. ”

Zhao Changqing was both surprised and laughed, "Is my mother pregnant again?" ”

"Isn't it?" Pear smiled, "A-Ning's family affair was originally said to be done at the beginning of the year, the aunt has a body, and the family doesn't dare to make her tired, I heard the old lady say that the day of production will be in April and May next year, and A-Ning's family affair chose the day of the tenth day of October, and the aunt will also be out of confinement at that time." "Pears promote narrow ways.

Zhao Changqing smiled and didn't know what to say.

Lizi said, "There is another thing, other dowries are easy to say, and then you will have to find a blessed person, but it is not easy to find." ”

Zhao Changqing and Lizi knew each other when they were young, and when they saw his appearance, they knew that this kid had other ideas, and smiled, "You don't hide it, and you have something to say." ”

Lizi laughed twice and said, "Sister Qing, I didn't think that I had an acquaintance with Brother Zheng in the border city. I wondered if I could ask Mrs. Zheng to make a decision for the pear fruit, which was also decent. ”

Su Bai made up his mind when he invited Mrs. Zheng to come forward. Zhao Changqing smiled, "I admire you for being well-informed." Catch up with Ming'er, I'll go talk to Sister Zheng and ask Mrs. Zheng. ”

Pear smiled, "I'll leave it to you." ”

Pears have always been generous, not only for Zhao Changqing, but also for the Xia family, Mrs. Xia, Aunt Xia, praised pears to the sky without a mouth.

Zhao Changqing originally wanted to invite Mrs. Zheng, but he didn't want Mrs. Zheng to have some coughing and wheezing in winter, and it would be difficult to heal for a while. Zhao Changqing invited Qi's family, and Lizixi was in danger of not going to the room, he originally thought that Mrs. Zheng's identity as Mrs. Zheng's three-grade imperial history would be determined for her younger brother, and her younger brother's family affairs would be called decent, and Mrs. Zheng's body was not very refreshing, but Zhao Changqing was able to invite Qi's family. Qi was born in the public mansion, married into the Hou mansion, his parents are here, the husband and wife are loving, and the children are both complete, he is simply a best candidate who can't think of it.

Lizi said to Liguo, "Look at your sister, this is really sincere." ”

Liguo smiled, "It can also deter and deter the Chen family." ”

Lizi asked, "What is the origin of the Chen family, it's really stinky and shameless, if this was in the border city, I would have cleaned him up a long time ago." "It's not your own territory, so you won't be tough when you speak.

Liguo said, "Master Chen is a five-grade lang in the military department, and his family has nothing, that is, the patriarch is a servant in the household department." ”

Pear said, "I really can't afford to mess with it for a while." ”

"That Mrs. Chen is simply unreasonable." Liguo is a person who knows in his heart, and said, "I have also inquired, Miss Wang is very good, after Chen Gongzi passed away, he said a few times to kiss, the Chen family is a dog's nose, smelling the smell of the door-to-door trouble." Otherwise, it wouldn't be my turn. No one is good for a hundred days, and no flower is red for a thousand days. The Chen family is not a first-class family in the imperial capital, can they still be prominent for a lifetime. However, if you can marry a good daughter-in-law, it will benefit your children and grandchildren. Liguo said to his brother, "It's best to invite Mrs. Song to come forward, not for anything else, I heard that Brother Song's father, Marquis Chengen, has been a household servant for more than ten years, and we can make the Chen family stop for a while." ”

Lizi nodded again and again, feeling that her younger brother had made great progress in the imperial capital.

Liguo really married this family, Lizi is not short of money in his hand, and he will definitely give his younger brother a long face, and the dowry is rich, which scared the Wang family. Mrs. Wang panicked and discussed privately with her husband, "I said that my son-in-law's family was very poor before, even if it is rich now, I think it is just a matter of setting up such a big house in the imperial capital." With these many dowries, how can we marry our daughters? ”

Wang Hanlin was very free and easy, "It's as originally discussed." The Zhao family is really married, otherwise, no one's money will be blown by the wind. ”

Mrs. Wang chanted the Buddha, "Our daughter has finally been transferred, and I have to go to Xishan Temple to repay my vows in order to catch up with Ming'er." ”

Wang Hanlin smiled, but did not sweep away the interest of his old wife. The daughter finally has a suitable family, and Wang Hanlin is also happy from the bottom of his heart. The pear is a delicate person, and he has come to the door several times, and the Wang family has gone to the servants independently, and there is no one who doesn't like him. Mrs. Wang knew that Lizi had not yet married, and she was still thinking about telling Lizi about her family.

However, Xia Gongren heard that Liguo had appointed the daughter of Wang Hanlin's family, and when he came to speak one day, he smacked his lips and said to Zhao Changqing, "It stands to reason that I shouldn't say this, but I heard that Zhao Gongzi is the brother of his nephew and daughter-in-law, and he is very close." I don't want to know it, I can't be at ease in my heart. You don't know, the girl of the Wang family had set the Chen family before, and the son of the Chen family passed away before she passed the door. Who in the imperial capital does not know the reputation of his family. He was a deception, so he was so busy marrying his daughter to you, who don't know the roots. ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "This Wang girl has not entered the door of the Chen family, and she can't be said to be the daughter-in-law of the Chen family, why do you still have to keep filial piety?" Even if you want to keep it, it is not right. ”

Xia Gongren shook his head, "Anyway, I feel that the Wang family is unkind." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled and stopped talking.

Aunt Xia added oil and vinegar, "My nephew and daughter-in-law still listen to my sister-in-law, don't delay your brother." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Uncle is compassionate, and my aunt is also kind, but is it possible that my aunt also feels that it is the right way to be widowed and filial piety before entering the door?" “

Aunt Xia has never had a high IQ, so she blurted out, "That's natural, women are chaste, and they should be like this." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "My aunt is coaxing me with words again." ”

Aunt Xia was just about to say something, but Mrs. Xia glared at her eldest daughter fiercely, and said, "The Chen family is indeed inappropriate, and it is also mean, the girl who is good and decent has not yet passed the door, because his son has a short life, he wants to force others to be widowed, it is simply unreasonable!" ”

Aunt Xia remembered at this time that she was a third marriage, and she didn't dare to say anything at the moment. Wei Xia Gongren's old face that provoked the topic was put on the ground, and his face was swept away.

Zhao Changqing knew that the Chen family was Xia Gongren's uncle's family, and Chen Shilang, the third-grade householder, was Xia Gongren's uncle's cousin, and the Chen family, who was married to the Wang family, was of the same clan as Chen Shilang, so it was no wonder that Xia Gongren deliberately said this set of words.

Liguo's family affairs are set, and it is the New Year in a blink of an eye, Xia Wen is busy on errands, and he has time to give New Year's gifts to each family, and his busy feet do not touch the ground. Xia Wen is a caring person, and when he gives New Year's gifts, he takes Xia Wu with him. Xia Yu is getting older, Zhao Changqing finds some simple housework and gives it to her to do, so that she can slowly learn to be a housekeeper.

However, Cousin Yang sent shoes again, and Hong'er said, "I've calculated, a pair in January, and it's very punctual." ”

Zhao Changqing said, "Let her send it, she has her reasons." ”

Hong'er asked, "Grandma, what is the truth of the cousin?" Anyway, I don't think it's to please my wife. ”

Zhao Changqing played with the jade ring that Mr. Su gave her, and the ring was carved with a zigzag pattern, which Mr. Su said was Tibetan, which means praying for good luck. Zhao Changqing said, "How can you say that." ”

Hong'er bit her lip, "I don't know, I just think it's weird." If I please someone, I will definitely send shoes today, socks tomorrow, and some snacks and fruits the day after tomorrow. You can't always know how to deliver shoes, right? This is also monotonous, how stupid this person is. ”

Zhao Changqing put the ring between his fingers and smiled, "I've done this kind of stupid thing." ”

Hong'er stuck out her tongue, "I didn't mean you, grandma. ”

Zhao Changqing said, "Thanks to you for waking me up." "She has done this kind of stupid thing, when she was a child, she made a pair of shoes for her grandfather every year on his birthday, which is indeed what she did.

Hong'er once said the wrong thing, and she didn't dare to speak again.

Banxia came in with a smile and brought a plate of freshly roasted sweet potatoes in, and said with a smile, "Grandma, it's snowing outside." ”

"It's just a good time to enjoy the snow for a while." I wrapped a piece of sweet potato in coarse paper and began to peel it, and the sweet potato tasted extremely sweet. His Majesty Zhao Changqing has always been lenient, "If you like it, eat it together." ”

Banxia smiled, "In the past, the food at home was not enough every year, so I used sweet potatoes to grind flour to make rations, many rich and noble families have never seen this, even if they know, they think it is coarse grain, and they rarely eat." Grandma actually liked it too. ”

"Everyone's tastes are different." For some reason, she has been thinking about her past life lately. In her previous life, Ling Teng went to the imperial capital of Chunqiu, and she served the second wife of Ling in the Ling family. Mrs. Ling always had to eat a little supper at night, and at that time, she would go to the kitchen to cook food for Mrs. Ling. The winter in the border city is so cold, she will quietly put two pieces of sweet potatoes in the stove ash that is still warm after dinner, and when she makes supper for Mrs. Ling Er at night, the stove ash has simmered the sweet potatoes, which is both fragrant and sweet.

In the shrunken, icy winter night, warm and silent time.
