Chapter 144: Saving for Marriage

Yang Yunshu left Xuanhui and said tomorrow's time and arrangement. At the end of the www.biquge.info of the pen, he instructed again: "How to wear clothes and jewelry, Aunt Jingyun knows better than me, you just listen to her." As for Sister Xu living in our house these days, you can take her to have fun and go shopping. After all, when I was in Xuzhou, I ......"

She remembered the days when she was trapped in Xuzhou, and she was very emotional, and couldn't help but say a few more words: "At that time, there were few soldiers in Xuzhou City, and Da Zhou died again...... I can't hope to help, the prince and I thought we couldn't escape a dead word. Fortunately, Pei Shizi came and supported it for a while. At that time, Sister Xu's family took us in for us to eat and wear. It has always been easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow, and the kindness of the Xu family has always been in mind. I'm busy these days, and my sister has to take good care of her for me. ”

Xuanhui nodded, thinking, if you don't tell me, I will also treat my grandmother well!

The next day, Jingyun called Xuanhui up: "Princess, the princess is looking for someone to calculate the auspicious time, get up quickly!" I still have to make up after breakfast! ”

Xuanhui sat up in a daze, letting Jingyun fiddle with it. When she came to her senses, she found herself sitting at the table with a spoon in her hand.

She smiled and said, "Auntie, don't be in such a hurry. It's not a particularly important day either......"

Jingyun looked through the clothes that Xuanhui was going to wear later, and said, "It doesn't matter! It's a big birthday, so it's important to count this day before you get married! Eat quickly, clean up after eating, and go to Pingle Hall first! Don't tell the prince and princess to wait! ”

Xuanhui was also anxious when she was urged, she hurriedly drank a small bowl of yam porridge, ate two rose rolls with a few plates of pickled side dishes, and asked for tea to rinse her mouth.

Jingyun brought the clothes he had prepared and put them on for Xuanhui to change. On it was a water-red full-sleeved shirt, with a turquoise knee skirt and a begonia-colored makeup jacket next to it.

Jingyun nagged while changing Xuanhui's clothes: "Today is a day for the princess to be festive, and it is auspicious to dress a little color." The first emperor and Niangniang will definitely not blame. After a while, you can go to the back and put this jacket on, which is considered a courtesy. ”

Xuanhui said with a smile: "With my sister-in-law and aunt giving me a good ceremony, my father and mother must be relieved." ”

After changing her clothes, Jingyun pushed Xuanhui to sit down in front of the dressing mirror and began to comb her hair. While she spoke, the movements of her hands did not stop at all: "When you were born, the first emperor buried your clothes in front of the east hall of Chengqian Palace, and planted a camphor tree on it with his own hands. ”

As she spoke, she was about to shed tears again. Xuanhui handed over the handkerchief, Jingyun wiped her tears, and said with a smile: "Look at me, you always say these things that make you sad." We should only stay in the Chengqian Palace for that tree, and when the prince brings the capital back, let's go and cut down the tree and come back to make a box, it's not too late. ”

Xuanhui responded with a smile, but thought that in the future, Chengqian Palace would not know which emperor's favorite concubine was living in, so it was better to transplant this tree to his and Pei Minzhong's house, as if his father and mother had been accompanying him.

When everything was cleaned up, Xuanhui looked at the figure with a lily bun in the mirror, smiled slightly, and turned around and went to Pingle Hall.

Liang Zan went to the study room early in the morning to meet the guests, and today he has been waiting in Pingle Hall for Xuanhui's birthday.

Xuanhui stepped forward and solemnly saluted Liang Zhan and his wife, and said, "Now the elders in the family are ...... is gone, the eldest brother is like a father, and the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. Xuanhui thanked the third brother and sister-in-law for their kindness in sheltering and taking care of them, and asked me to accept a gift. ”

Yang Yunshu hurriedly got up to help, but was stopped by Liang Zhan, so he had to sit upright and accept the full salute.

When Xuanhui got up, Liang Zan handed her a box and said, "You are right, the elders in the family are gone, I should have taken care of you more." Seeing that you have become an adult, and when the filial piety period expires, you will marry Shenzhi, and the third brother will save up the dowry you give one by one. ”

"In this box are more than 100 acres of high-quality fields at the border of the two counties of Songjiang Prefecture, Huating and Qingpu. Although there is little land, it is good land, which is a lump sum. Wait for the third brother to save it for you one after another, and keep it beautiful when you get married! ”

Xuanhui was moved in his heart, but he seemed to weigh a thousand pounds while holding this box.

Now is not as good as in the past, she never thought that she would be able to be as beautiful as the princesses of the Great Zhou Dynasty when she got married. Because Pei Minzhong treats herself with deep affection, she has never worried that she will be looked down upon by her in-laws if she marries too little.

The eldest brother is like a father, she said it on her lips, and Liang Zan fell in her heart. Now that the great cause of recovery has just begun, Liang Zan has to use money everywhere, and his family moved to Jinling, but he didn't even buy a house, and gave up the face of the prince to borrow the courtier's house.

In Huating and Qingpu counties, the household department is evaluated every year. The officials are elected every three years, and countless officials want to be released here. The price of its land can be imagined, but as soon as Liang Zan makes a move, it is a hundred acres of fertile land.

Xuan Hui was about to push back, but was stopped by Liang Zhan: "You also said that the eldest brother is like a father, and we also received your gift." You don't have to excuse yourself, so that your father and the virtuous concubine can rest assured in the spirit of the sky. ”

Xuanhui thanked her with tears, Liang Zhan pulled her up, took Liang Hao from the nurse's hand and kissed her twice, and said, "Today is your daughter's liveliness, so I will go to the outer study to stay." If there is anything important, just send someone to tell it. ”

Yang Yunshu responded, explained a few words to the nurse, and took Xuanhui to the water pavilion by Xiliu Lake.

The name of this water pavilion is Yuanxiangxuan, which is a square building, with windows on all sides, and surrounded by water on three sides. The interior is very large, and the two layers of maul fans in the middle are movable, which can be removed and turned into a spacious hall. The ceremony of Xuanhui is scheduled to be held here.

Yang Yunshu said with a smile as he walked: "Originally, it was said that the ceremony should be in Pingle Hall, but the courtyard there is not very big, and the main house is only the size of six doors. Coincidentally, it's summer again, if it's on this water pavilion, it's bright and cool, and it's close to the stage, so you won't delay eating and watching the play. ”

Xuanhui smiled: "Sister-in-law arranged it very well. ”

As soon as the two sisters-in-law arrived, the next person came to spread the word that Mrs. Meng had arrived with Meng Tingfang. Yang Yunshu and Mrs. Meng went to the front to greet the guests, leaving Xuanhui and Meng Tingfang and Xu Yingjiao to entertain the young ladies of the family who came to congratulate.

A young lady with a full head of pearls came from the front, leaving her mother far behind, and looked a little angry.

Xuanhui didn't know who was coming, so he quietly asked Meng Tingfang: "Who is that girl?" (To be continued.) )
