Chapter 11 Family feasts and joys, flounder love

Yao Yuanzhi raised his hand to let his son and daughter sit down, and then asked Yao Yanyi: "Is your matter almost handled?" ”

"Well, the medicine field has been sealed off, and it has been guarded by the proper people. The accounts are all right. This year's harvest is really not small. Yao Yanyi said, turning his head to look at Yao Yanyu, "I also put the second sister's money in Henglong Bank, and let Lao Feng take back the account book." ”

Yao Yanyu smiled and said, "It's good that my brother is in charge of these things, but I don't understand it anyway." ”

Yao Fengge said with a smile: "The second sister is now the richest person among our brothers and sisters. ”

"This is all taken care of by the second brother, the only thing I like to do is to fiddle with those medicinal materials, and the second brother is worried about everything else." Yao Yanyu said, and suddenly smiled again: "Speaking of which, I wanted to discuss something with my father and sister before, but I got mixed up because there were too many miscellaneous things. ”

"Oh?" Yao Yuanzhi, who had been concentrating on drinking tea, looked up and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"It's about the glass field." Yao Yanyu said, glanced at Yao Fengge again, and smiled, "I think, let the eldest sister and eldest brother also contribute some money, so that the four of us brothers and sisters will go to Jiangnan to build a large glass field, of course, this matter needs my father to take the idea, if my father thinks it is feasible, I will take care of the glass manufacturing technician." For the rest, let the brothers and sisters worry about it. ”

Yao Yuanzhi couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "You! It's obviously a good heart. ”

Yao Fengge's eyes lit up and he looked at Yao Yanyi.

Yao Yanyi said with a smile: "Yan Yu has already had this idea, but I'm afraid that my father won't agree." She also knew that a family like ours was not fit to do these things anymore. But who has a grudge against silver? We don't earn this money, but others earn it. Besides, this glassware is both beautiful and practical, and the cost is several times lower than those crystal glasses, and everyone likes it, and I heard that our glass vases are sold by the vendors, and the price can be increased tenfold. In fact, we went to Jiangnan to build a field, which can be regarded as benefiting the people. ”

"Sophistry!" Yao Yuanzhi glared at Yao Yanyi and reprimanded softly, "You are now an official of the imperial court, so you must pay attention to your words and deeds." ”

"Yes." Yao Yanyi hurriedly put away his smile and respectfully bowed his head in agreement.

Yao Fengge said with a smile: "You are afraid, I am not afraid, I am now an orphan and a widow, fortunately I have my father, brother and sister to carry me, otherwise in two years, Yue'er and I will have to drink the northwest wind." ”

Yao Yuanzhi glanced at his daughter, sighed, and said, "Is there no cure for Wending's illness?" ”

Yao Fengge chuckled and said, "He didn't allow his second sister to treat him, and the medicine given by other imperial doctors didn't work so quickly." Yesterday, I just invited the old lady of the Bai family to come and diagnose his pulse and prescribe a prescription. ”

"Hmm." Yao Yuanzhi nodded and said, "The Bai family's medical Tao is also very profound, and the prescription prescribed by the old man should work." ”

"Let's eat, eat." Yao Fengge chuckled nonchalantly, "I'm not afraid that my father will scold my daughter for being ignorant, in fact, I'm relieved that he's like this." At least you don't have to run out to recruit cats and dogs, and get into some trouble and come back. It's just taking medicine to recuperate and spending some money, and I'm happy to raise him, but I'm less angry. ”

"You're talking nonsense, too!" Yao Yuanzhi lowered his face and glared at Yao Fengge, "Women's families are all married and served!" If these words of yours are spread out, if you don't want your name and life? ”

Yao Fengge collapsed his face and lowered his head.

Yao Yanyu hurriedly persuaded: "Father, don't be angry, everything has two sides. My sister was also forced to be helpless. ”

Yao Yanyi also hurriedly persuaded: "What the second sister said is that the person Wending is not a martial artist, and he has a pair of fancy intestines, which is really difficult to take on a big responsibility." If he hadn't been born in the Houmen and had his father and brother restraining him, he wouldn't know what to do. ”

Yao Yuanzhi naturally knew about Su Yuxiang's affairs, and he was really helpless about his eldest daughter now. He originally wanted to talk to Dinghou Ye well, but Dinghou is now sick and thanks, as a father, Yao is very helpless.

The atmosphere was a little heavy for a while, and after a while, Yao Fengge spoke again: "Father doesn't have to worry. I don't ask for anything else, I just want to take Yue'er to live a stable life in the Hou Mansion. Anyway, in the future, the Dinghou Mansion will not be able to take the turn of the three-room master anyway. I just want to be safe for the rest of my life, and it shouldn't be difficult. ”

Yao Yuanzhi sighed faintly and said, "In this way, the matter of the glass field that Yan Yu just said, just write a letter and ask your eldest brother to help with it." If you brothers and sisters can help each other, you and your mother and I will be at ease in the future. ”

As soon as he said this, Yao Fengge's eyes immediately turned red, and he hurriedly brushed his face and quietly wiped his tears. Yao Yanyi sighed: "Father, don't worry, with me and my eldest brother here, I will definitely take care of my sisters." ”

Yao Yanyu was stunned in her heart, and suddenly remembered Yao Quehua, who was still in the south. I thought to myself, could it be that the second brother still has the heart to care about Yao Quehua's affairs?

"Hey! What you said reminded me of Finch. Yao Yuanzhi sighed.

"What's wrong with her?" Yao Yanyi frowned, thinking to himself, is he restless again? Didn't you wake up last time you suffered a loss?

Yao Yuanzhi shook his head and did not speak. Yao Yanyu spoke: "No matter what happens to Quehua, the matter of the glass field has nothing to do with her. My original intention was to think about the future days of my big sister, and the big brother who was up and down in the south. Finch...... She doesn't seem to like me either. I don't want to get involved with her too much. ”

Yao Yuanzhi couldn't help frowning, not knowing why Yao Yanyu was so disgusted with Que Hua alone.

"Okay, she's still young anyway." Yao Yanyi knew what to expect, so she was busy diverting the topic, "If she is still so naΓ―ve in the future and doesn't know the rules of doing things, we will plan for her separately." The glass recipe is owned by the second sister alone, so you can do whatever you say about the glass field. ”

Although Yao Fengge didn't know why Yao Yanyu hated Que Hua so much, he also nodded with Yao Yanyi: "This is natural, the second sister is not short of money now, and she is willing to pull us together, so naturally she wants to pull us along." ”

"These little things, you can discuss them yourself." Yao Yuanzhi didn't pay much attention to these things, as the head of the family, what he needed to worry about was the general direction of the entire family. As for the little things about money, as long as the juniors don't go to the big folds, they can do whatever they love. Moreover, Yao Yanyi has become more and more calm and mature in the past two years in the capital, and he has done things in a relaxed manner, and he should not be wrong with his checks.

At that moment, Yao Yuanzhi talked to his son and daughter again, the days were short in winter, and the sky was dark.

Yao Yanyi beckoned the maid to come in and take charge of the lamp, and Yao Cuihan's little girl swayed in a red and white fox-haired jacket, and when she saw Yao Yanyu, she threw herself on her with a smile.

"Why don't you say hello to your grandfather?" Yao Yanyi said.

The little girl immediately slipped down from Yao Yanyu's lap, blessed Yao Yuanzhi in a proper manner, and said in a milky voice: "Han'er asks for peace to grandfather, grandfather is blessed with longevity and health." ”

Yao Yuanzhi smiled and said, "Well, good, good." Get up. ”

Yao Fengge said with a smile: "The older we get, the more handsome we are." Look at this eyebrow. ”

"Aunt Ann." Yao Cuihan turned around to say hello to Yao Fengge again, and then turned to Yao Yanyu: "Second aunt An." Finally, Yao Yanyi: "Father An." ”

"Okay, come to my aunt." Yao Fengge smiled and beckoned to the little girl.

Yao Cuihan leaned on Yao Fengge's arms and asked in a coquettish voice, "Auntie, where is Sister Yue'er?" ”

"Sister Yue'er is at home, it's too cold, my sister is young, and my aunt is afraid that she will blow the wind, so she didn't let her follow." Yao Fengge hugged her little niece and laughed in a low voice.

The little girl Yao Cuihan sighed regretfully: "Alas! I still have her favorite jelly beans. With her sigh, everyone laughed. Yao Fengge asked her with a smile: "Han'er likes her sister?" ”

"I like it." Yao Cuihan nodded and added, "I also like Yuan'er." ”

"After that, Han'er will play with her younger siblings, okay?"

"Okay." The little girl glanced at Yao Yanyu seriously, and added: "There are also younger brothers and sisters from the second aunt's family, and they also want to play together." ”

"......" Yao Fengge hurriedly looked back at Yao Yanyu, her gaze swept over her lower abdomen. Is there one? Why haven't you heard of it all this time?

Yao Yanyu's face flushed for a while, and she almost choked herself with a sip of tea: "Cough!" Han'er, how can there be younger brothers and sisters in the second aunt's family? ”

The little girl grinned and said, "Mother said that there will be da in the future!" ”

Everyone couldn't help laughing again, Yao Yanyu was shy and sour, and she couldn't tell what it was like in her heart. Fortunately, someone outside came in and said: "Back to the master, the second master, the second aunt is here." ”

"Yo, Xianjun is here? Please. Yao Yanyi smiled and got up to greet him.

Wei Zhang had already come in from outside, and there was a little snow on the heavy purple flowing cloud pattern brocade. Yao Yanyu raised her hand to help him bounce it off, because she asked, "It's snowing!" ”

"Just getting started." Wei Zhang raised his hand to untie the lynx Qiu and handed it to the maid next to him, and then took a closer look at Yao Yanyu's face, and asked with a smile: "What is the charcoal fire in this house, look at your hot face is red." ”

Yao Yanyu glared at him and didn't speak, then turned around and went to Yao Fengge's side. Wei Zhangfang followed and turned the screen and went to give Yao Yuanzhi a salute first.

In Yao Yuanzhi's eyes, the general of the auxiliary country is a fast son-in-law who rides the dragon, so he naturally values it very much. So he smiled and said "no courtesy" while instructing Yao Yanyu: "Pour tea for the general." ”

In front of his father, Yao Yanyu was not willful, so he went to pour a cup of tea for Wei Zhang and handed it over. Wei Zhang took the tea with a smile and said politely: "Mrs. Xie." ”

Yao Yanyu rolled his eyes and replied, "No thanks." ”

Yao Fengge giggled and said, "Look at the way the two of them respect each other." ”

Yao Yanyi said with a smile: "Yan Yu is actually still very capricious, and the general doesn't care about her." ”

Wei Zhang glanced at Yao Yanyu with a smile again, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's not too capricious." ”

Yao Yanyu glared at him again, what does it mean to not be 'too willful'?

It's rare for the family to get together for a reunion dinner, Yao Fengge didn't come when Yao Yuanzhi first came to Beijing, and then Yao Fengge came, but Wei Zhang didn't come because of something. Except for Su Yuxiang, it can be regarded as complete. So Ning asked someone to prepare a sumptuous banquet early and opened a jar of good wine. smiled and said: "I'm busy on weekdays, but today it's finally complete." ”

Yao Yanyu said with a smile: "Could it be that we will start eating New Year's wine now?" ”

Ning said with a smile: "New Year's wine is not counted, this meal is a small reunion today." ”

The meal was very lively, Yao Yuanzhi valued Wei Zhang, but whenever Wei Zhang toasted, he drank it all. In this way, Yao Yanyi was also very happy, and frequently raised his glass to the Yao family's Chenglong fast son-in-law. The Ning family also persuaded the two younger sisters to drink wine separately, and the meal was not dispersed until the second watch.

Ning said that the room had been cleaned up, and it was snowing outside, so the two aunts and grandmothers should not go back, and would stay for one night and come back tomorrow.

Yao Fengge was worried about her daughter and insisted on going back. Yao Yanyi instructed his subordinates to set up the carriage and send his sister back in person. Wei Zhang said: "It's better for me and Yanyu to send the eldest sister back, it's just a detour." The second brother drank a lot of wine, so don't go out to blow the cold wind again. ”

Yao Yanyi thought about it, so he told Li Zhong again, watched the two girls get into the car with his own eyes, and persuaded Wei Zhang: "Don't ride a horse, this snow is getting heavier and heavier, although you are strong, you must also pay attention to maintenance." ”

Wei Zhang was only six or seven minutes drunk, and when he was half drunk like a fairy, when it was just right, he responded with a smile and got into Yao Yanyu's carriage.

There were thirty or forty guards from Dinghou Mansion and Wei Mansion, and they left Yao Mansion with two big carriages in front and back, and went to Dinghou Mansion first.

Yao Fengge leaned on the carriage and held the hand stove silently thinking about his thoughts. She had also drunk a lot of wine tonight, but she wasn't drunk. How long has it been since I've had such a good drink? It seems that I haven't drunk so happily since I married into Dinghou Mansion.

Seeing Yao Yanyu and Wei Zhang raise their eyebrows and respect and love each other, Yao Fengge was really envious in his heart. Thinking about Su Yuxiang lying on the bed at home, I felt infinitely sad. But what about it? Every man has his own life, and he does not force half of it.

I think that when she married into the Dinghou Mansion with ten miles of red makeup, the nobles of Manyun Capital City were envious.

Dinghoufu is a relative of the emperor and a family of meritorious service for the founding of the country. Everyone knows that the third young master of the Su family is the top of Mrs. Dinghou's heart, and he is handsome and graceful, humble, polite and gentle, and he is a well-known son in Yundu City.

At that time, Yao Fengge thought that if he could be with such a gentleman for a lifetime, even if there was no hard love, he should have calm happiness.

But who knew that the gentle and jade son was just a golden jade.

In fact, whether he is amorous or has nothing to do, the foundation of Dinghou Mansion is here, Yao Fengge has a rich makeup, as long as he doesn't look for trouble, he doesn't find faults, there are still stable days.

It's a pity that people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants. It's not enough for a house of wives and concubines in the family, but he takes a fancy to someone who shouldn't be fancied, and the person he fancies is not the kind of person who is rubbed by others.

It is said that if you can't ask for it, it is time for the wise to stop. After all, a woman with the ability to reach the sky, and she was given marriage by the emperor, and she was personally sealed with a rank and title, so it is absolutely impossible to casually pull into the house to be a concubine for anyone.

Sadly, there are still words in this world that are 'obsessed'.

Obsessed! Yao Fengge sighed softly.

"Grandma, are you dizzy?" The coral next to him asked busily.

"Nope." Yao Fengge shook his head.

Coral looked at his master's lonely face, and asked cautiously: "This is coming." Grandma is tired, right? Why don't you have a slave and pinch your shoulder? ”

"No need." Yao Fengge smiled and asked Coral again, "How does Li Zhong treat you?" ”

Coral was stunned, couldn't help but bow his head, and said, "It's good." ”

"Really?"

"It's okay. His temper was a little anxious, but no matter how anxious he was, he would scold a few words, but he never dared to make a move with the slave and maid. ”

"Why is he scolding you?" Yao Fengge frowned and asked.

Coral is the first-class maid by her side, when she married Li Zhong, Yao Fengge gave her a rich dowry, and she is the only one among so many maids. In addition, Mama Li is also close to the service, so she naturally knows the weight of coral in the master's heart. Why can't this make him Li Zhong treat each other well?

Sango smiled and sighed, "Hi! Grandma is a noble person, so naturally she doesn't know about the things of people. In fact, which spoon doesn't touch the edge of the pot? It's just a matter of making do. As for the grandmother's companion Chen Xing's family, he was slapped twice by his man in three days, and the two of them still lived the same? Three children have been born. ”

Yao Fengge laughed, and sighed softly after laughing. Yes, how can there be so many cases in this world? How can there be so much affection? It's just a makeshift to get by.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the Dinghou Mansion, and Coral hurriedly pulled up the wind pocket on Yao Fengge's cloak to cover his head, and tied the palace silk tightly, and then went out first, and then turned around and helped Yao Fengge out of the carport.

The snow became heavier and heavier, and pieces of goose feathers fell from the inky night sky, and the stone lions at the entrance of the Dinghou Mansion turned into orange snow lions under the tall lanterns.

In the carriage behind, Wei Zhang helped Yao Yanyu to get out of the car, and the couple stepped on the thick snow and walked in front of Yao Fengge. Yao Fengge smiled: "You two go in and have a cup of hot tea, right?" ”

Yao Yanyu shook her head and said, "It's so late, we won't bother." Sister, come in, Yue'er is afraid that it is time to sleep at this time. ”

"Well, if you don't go in, go home early. It's getting late. Yao Fengge raised his hand to brush away the snowflakes on Yao Yanyu's big red feather satin cloak.

Yao Yanyu smiled and said: "The matter of the glass field I talked about today, my sister will find a time to come over as soon as possible, we will have to choose someone after we have discussed, and we will send it to Jiangning to find the eldest brother after the New Year." ”

"Okay, I'll take it to heart. I'll go to your house another day. Yao Fengge agreed.

After the two sisters said goodbye, Yao Fengge watched Wei Zhang carry Yao Yanyu into the carriage, and then took the family guards to leave, and gently exhaled a breath of turbidity.

At this time, how glad she was that when Yao Yanyu came to Dinghou Mansion, she didn't target her because Su Yuxiang liked her, and how glad she had always tried to relax her heart to accept this sister. Even when she tried her best to get rid of her irrelevancy, she tried her best to envelop her as an eldest sister.

Although Yao Fengge doesn't know what Que Hua has done to Yan Yu, judging from how much she has decided against Que Hua today, Yao Yan Yu is definitely not a weak and bullying person!

But Yao Yanyu leaned on Wei Zhang's arms, Wei Zhang unfolded his lynx Qiu wrapped around her, and asked in a low voice, "Do you think your sister is a little special to you today?" ”

"Hmm." Yao Yanyu shook her head, "Yes! I gave her a chance to make a fortune, and she could be special to me. ”

"What's the fortune?" Wei Zhang asked in confusion.

"Glass field." Yao Yanyu chuckled and said, "After the New Year, I will go to Jiangning to open another glass farm, so that she and her eldest brother will become shareholders." One helps me take care of the accounts, and the other helps me watch the show. ”

"You're short of manpower?" Wei Zhang asked in confusion.

"There is no shortage." Yao Yanyu shook her head.

"Not enough silver? How much worse? ”

"I have enough money." Yao Yanyu sighed lightly, and said with a smile, "I'm only poor now, and I only have silver." ”

"Then why do you want them to take a stake? If you just want to pull her, it's better to give her the silver directly. In this way, it is clearly understood that the future of the province is too deeply involved, but it hurts the feelings of sisters. ”

Yao Yanyu chuckled and shook his head, thought for a while, and asked, "As a general, you have tens of thousands of soldiers under your command. Shall I ask the General a question? ”

"Hmm, ask." Wei Zhang gently held the cheek of his wife in his arms and whispered.

"Do you dare to guarantee that your soldiers will never betray you?"

Wei Zhang didn't expect her to ask this question, so he pondered for a moment before saying, "Don't dare." I do not doubt that there is absolute loyalty in this world. But it's also clear that absolute loyalty doesn't happen to everyone in everything. ”

"Yes." Yao Yanyu nodded: "The reason why people are loyal is because the weight of betrayal is not enough. ”

The soldiers are loyal to their generals, to the court, and to their nation, not only because they know the national righteousness, but also because they have families, fathers, mothers, and children, and a family business to live in. Everything behind them does not allow them to betray.

They are loyal to the country, but they are also fighting for their own happy future.

If you kill all the family members of a soldier and burn all their family business, do you think he will be treasonous?

Wei Zhang nodded, expressing his agreement with Yao Yanyu's words.

"So, I don't think the people under me will be absolutely loyal to me. Even Lao Feng, I gave him a 10% share of all my shop business. Yao Yanyu said softly.

Wei Zhang nodded, and then Yao Yanyu's words continued: "Even so, you can't fully trust him, you handed over the matter of the medicine field to your second brother, and let the people from the Eldest Princess's Mansion participate." The affairs of the glass field were handed over to Lao Feng to be fully responsible, and he gave your second brother 20% of the shares, so that the accounts were supervised by the three parties, and no one wanted to seek personal benefits from them. Then, Jiangning's glass field is the same.

Yao Yanyu nodded lightly, smiled and squeezed into Wei Zhang's arms. Wei Zhang hugged her up, made her more comfortable to pill on his shoulder, and asked, "Then, what happened to the glass field that you and Mrs. Jinghaihou made on the outskirts of the city?" ”

"This matter is actually my own selfishness. Sister Han and I are like sisters, we appreciate each other, have similar temperaments, and even hate to see each other late, and we can't wait to make friends. But no matter what, this relationship lacks the maintenance of blood after all. This is just the friendship of the daughter's family in the boudoir, if there is really a major event involving the interests of the family, this feeling will inevitably give way to the interests. Speaking of this, Yao Yanyu suddenly smiled and changed the topic: "You see, even the Great Cloud Dynasty, in the gentle policy for those foreign clans in Fanbang, there is a very wise and very useful policy - intermarriage and trade. ”

Wei Zhang immediately understood. At present, this is the most direct and effective way for Yao Yanyu and Han Mingcan to tie each other tightly.

"Why do that?" Wei Zhang frowned slightly, feeling very uncomfortable that she was so calculating.

Yao Yanyu sighed softly: "We are too in the limelight now!" For a small tree to grow, it must first take deep roots. Otherwise, it is long and unstable. ”

The Wei family's power is thin, and Wei Zhang now not only holds heavy troops, but also occupies a high position. In addition, they are also out of the limelight, such a couple, if they can't be tied to several big families, maybe a gust of wind will blow down from somewhere, or even uproot!

All of a sudden, all kinds of emotions bubbled up in Wei Zhang's heart.

There are losses, surprises, shocks, celebrations, and some distress...... These emotions come together to create an inexplicable ...... Disconsolate. As a husband, he can't let his woman rely on it completely, which makes him feel very useless.

In doing so, Yao Yanyu not only tied the Yao family and the Wei family tightly, but also tied up the Dinghou Mansion, the Jinghai Hou Mansion, the Zhenguo Mansion by the way, and further afield, and indirectly tied Yao Yanen's wife and Yao Yanyi's wife who were far away in the south of the Yangtze River.

Wei Zhang is not a fool, on the contrary, he is an extremely intelligent person.

After thinking about this, General Wei raised his head slightly and leaned against the wall of the car, and sighed silently - what kind of seven-trick exquisite heart does this petite and soft person in his arms have!

The wheels of the carriage crushed through the streets under the thick layer of snow, and the creaking sound was crisp and regular, mingling with the sound of horses' hooves to form a lullaby.

After Yao Yanyu finished saying that, the strength of the wine finally returned, and she leaned on the warm embrace and gradually fell asleep. By the time she arrived at the door, she had fallen asleep.

Wei Zhang wrapped her cloak around her, and wrapped a lamb's wool blanket from Persia in the carriage around her, and then gently carried her out of the carriage.

The spear chief came out of the mansion with people, and when he saw the curtain of the carriage opened, he was about to step forward to say goodbye, but he was shut by General Wei's eyes.

Oops hey! Oh my mother! The spear chief secretly called out to his mother.

The wise and martial general of his family actually got out of the car with the same wise and invincible wife?

Looks like Madame is asleep?

The general was reluctant to wake her up?

Gee! How much the general spoils his wife! What is this like...... Flounder is in love! The spear chief raised his hand and touched the back of his head.

Wei Zhang hugged his wife all the way into Yan'an Hall. Mama Feng had already taken the maid to take care of everything in the house, and at first glance she saw that her wife was being carried back by the general, and what happened at that time! When she saw the lady who was sleeping in the general's arms with a red face, Mama Feng quietly stroked her chest and put her heart back in her stomach.
