CHAPTER XIII
However, the fewer children and grandchildren, the more delicate the raising. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Su Lin is only nineteen years old this year, and before he is in the age of weak crown, he has already been able to take the lead alone and serve as the superintendent and guard of the Sanpin Forbidden Army, while Su Jie, who is thirteen years old, has not yet reached the end of time, but he is already proficient in the four books and five classics, and he is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting!
The common people's saying that "a woman's lack of talent is virtue" is a nonsense that is scoffed at in the eyes of the family!
Only by knowing books can we be reasonable, and only then can we assist our future husbands, can we become a model of the Lijia, and we can also teach better future generations, which will be passed down from generation to generation and endure.
At this point, Su Jie agreed, but unfortunately she had too many bodies in her previous life, and she failed to teach her husband and children after all, which was to live up to her grandmother's expectations of her.
"Jianing has also grown up, and the family hasn't heard the noise of children for a long time!"
Mrs. Tai looked Su Jie up and down for a while, and then pinched the tip of her nose dotingly, and said with some teasing. Although he was smiling, he still couldn't hide the faint sadness in his tone.
She is old, she can be regarded as a half-buried person in the loess, I don't know how long she can live, and she is also looking forward to seeing the day when someone in the Su family is thriving in her lifetime!
The room was a little dull, Su Jie smiled and went into the old man's arms, which made others laugh.
She remembered that in her previous life, the eldest brother had three of his twenties, and he married the little daughter of the king of Ruyang - the county lord of Hengrong, the county lord's sister-in-law was a good child, and she added a little niece to her in the second year of entering the house, before Su Jie was strangled to death by a white silk, she already had a nephew and a niece, and the county lord's sister-in-law had good news in her stomach!
It can be seen that the Su family's great task of spreading branches and leaves, and his brother Su Lin will definitely be able to complete it well!
Don't worry.
Thinking of this, she smiled even more happily, and no one else knew what she was laughing at, so she only quipped: "Jianing now has her own careful thoughts!"
Another burst of laughter.
When Su Lin came back from changing guards, the family sat down in Yatang, Mrs. Tai sat at the top, the right one on the left side was the lord and Mrs., followed by Su Lin and Su Jie, the family, the number of people was small, but they were also happy.
At three o'clock, the dishes in the palace were delivered, and unlike previous years, there were three dishes this year, which was a great honor!
Every year in the Chinese New Year's Eve, it is an honor to give one more dish, and there are very few cases in history that there are few cases in history where two dishes are given like this year's Dingguo Mansion!
"Your Majesty said, in the past year, the grandfather and the prince general have worked hard and hard, and this year they specially gave a Buddha jumping over the wall and a royal meal bean yoe to show Your Majesty's love!"
Listening to the words of the inner servant, Su Yuanzhen led the whole family to bow piously in the direction of the palace to thank the emperor for his mighty grace: "Thank the emperor for his grace!"
After getting up, Mama Chang took out a bulging purse from her sleeve and stepped forward to hand it to the waiter who came to give the food.
"It's the New Year, be a little careful, please drink a hot cup of tea to my father-in-law!"
"Mrs. Xie carries love, Grandpa Xie Guo carries love!"
The waiter made a salute, happily accepted the purse, and said a few auspicious words for the New Year, and then turned around and said goodbye.
After the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Su Jie stepped forward one by one to kowtow to the elders to greet the New Year, and got three bulging New Year's bags, and Su Lin couldn't stop teasing her.
"Jianing's little mouth is getting more and more able to speak, and the New Year's gift is so much, but you can score some of me!"
Hearing this, Su Jie raised her eyebrows, put on a little childlike arrogance, stretched out her hand to Su Lin, and said, "If my brother wants it, how can my sister not give it?" It's not too late to give me your share first! ”
Hearing this, everyone laughed.
Before Su Lin could speak, Mrs. Tai, who was sitting in the first seat, interjected first.
"Yes, I'll have to ask your brother for it! He is also the one who leads the Yulu now, and he should give you some pressure on the year! ”
When Su Jie got support, she became more and more arrogant, and Su Lin put on a little grievance after hearing this.
"Grandmother, you're always partial to your sister!"
"I haven't started a family yet, so I'm looking for me to press the New Year's money, so won't I have to give more when I get married?"
It's a joke, but it's also true.
In her previous life, she got married earlier than him, and the things that the Guogong Mansion sent into the palace every year had to be prepared into a gift list and registered, which was indeed a lot. On the contrary, it is her, the New Year's gift belongs to the reward in the palace, and as the queen, she represents the emperor's will and the direction of the court, and it is easy to give it, only five or six a year.
Su Jie swept the sadness in her eyes, knelt up straight, looked at her brother Su Lin and smiled, and said, "When you get married, your own sister-in-law will face me, and then I'm afraid that you won't be able to give it?"
There is quite a sense of villain's ambition!
"Is that worth it?"
Su Lin exclaimed, then touched his chin, made a thinking expression, and said, "It seems that I have to find a way to marry you first!"
Su Jie listened to her brother's joke, stomped her feet angrily, and ran to Mrs. Tai with a bitter face, pulling her arm while complaining.
"Grandmother, you see, my brother is thinking about marrying my sister early for the provincial New Year's ceremony, isn't he a stingy ghost?"
The words made the people sitting cover their mouths and laugh.
The fairy tale is the most funny. The joyful atmosphere continues to spread, and there is indeed a taste of the New Year!
After laughing, Mrs. Xiao looked at her son and said: "Okay, okay, Lin'er, don't tease her, take out the things you carefully prepared before!"
Hearing this, Su Jie also looked at her brother with bright eyes, Su Lin couldn't stop laughing when she saw her like this, not teasing her, but stretching out her hand backwards, seeing this, the servant hurriedly took out a box from behind and put it firmly in his palm, and he handed it to his sister.
"Happy New Year in Jianing, safe and healthy years!"
Su Jie really ran over like a child, took the box, but deliberately snorted at her brother and raised her eyebrows, looking like a villain!
The box was opened in public.
In the brocade-covered box lay a pearl, the size of a pigeon's egg, round and full, and bright in color!
Even in her previous life, Su Jie had never seen many pearls of such a size and such a good color, but there were only twenty of them, and today, her brother gave her one!
"Thank you, brother!"
Su Jie is really happy in her heart, not because of how valuable this pearl is, but because this gift must have been prepared by her brother for a long time, which can be seen to be a New Year's gift full of the heart and love of the brother!
"I asked a friend who went to the East China Sea to find it, but I didn't expect him to find it! In the future, when you get married, it will be very good to be inlaid on the phoenix crown! ”
"Humph!"
Hearing this, Su Jie snorted again, pouted and complained: "Speaking of which, you still want to marry me off as soon as possible!"
The family laughed even more!
