While several people were talking and laughing, Qin's mother also came in. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
In addition to Chun'er and Xia'er, Shu Yanhua's personal people are all accompanied by Yan's family - Qin's mother is the housekeeper mother in Shu Yanhua's yard, responsible for managing the big and small affairs in the yard, and in charge of Shu Yanhua's small warehouse.
Qi's mother is responsible for managing the big and small things in Shu Yanhua's room; Chun'er takes care of the clothes, Xia'er is in charge of the cage, Qiu'er is in charge of dressing, and Dong'er is in charge of jewelry.
Spring, summer, autumn and winter are Shu Yanhua's eldest maids, except for these four maids and two mothers, no one else can enter Shu Yanhua's room without being summoned.
After Mother Qin came in, she saw the young lady's smiling appearance, and she was also happy in her heart, sat on the small embroidery pier, and said: "Sister Hua, your grandfather's family sent someone to give you and Brother Xuan some gifts this morning, and learned about your illness, maybe your uncle and wife will come to visit you this afternoon." ”
Shu Yanhua was a little stunned, her grandfather Yan family in her memory was one of the top ten wealthy businessmen in the Great Xia Dynasty, and the family property was not rich enough to rival the country, but it was almost the same, just because it was a businessman, there was always a lack of confidence in the face of the powerful.
However, the Yan family is kind to others, likes to do good deeds, builds bridges and roads, and helps poor people, and has a very good reputation among the people.
The Yan family pays attention to harmony in business, and everyone has money to earn together, so no matter how much money the Yan family makes, it doesn't hinder anyone.
Until one day, a big pie fell in the world - the Marquis of Guangping actually came to the Yan family for his own marquis to propose marriage, talking about the youngest daughter of the Yan family - Yan Zhihe.
Yan Chuan, the head of the Yan family, and his mother, He, have two sons and a daughter, the eldest son Yan Xiangrong, the second son Yan Xiangming, and the youngest daughter Yan Zhihe.
The Yan family had no idea of clinging to the powerful family, although they felt that the move of the Guangping Marquis Mansion to propose marriage was a little abrupt, but they couldn't guess the idea of the rich and noble, so they politely refused.
Unexpectedly, it won't be long before the Marquis of Guangping Mansion sent someone to the door to propose marriage, this time, the Yan family felt strange, so they inquired about the Marquis of Guangping.
After the old Guangping Marquis went to the fairy, it was Shu Xiuhe, the son of the Marquis of Guangping, who was filial piety for his father for three years, and only proposed to the Yan family half a year after his filial piety.
Shu Xiuhe has no reputation, and the Marquis of Guangping has been in decline for a long time, and it is getting farther and farther away from the center of power.
So the Yan family really couldn't understand why the Marquis of Guangping came to their house to propose, no matter how rich their family was, they were just merchants, and they couldn't even compare with the scholarly family, let alone the nobles, so even Yan Chuan couldn't understand the intentions of the Marquis of Guangping.
It doesn't matter if you don't understand, the Yan family knows how strict the rules of big families are, and how many pickled and ugly things there are in the back house, and they don't want their daughters to marry into such a family.
So he politely rejected the Marquis of Guangping for the second time.
Then when Yan went out to buy something, he encountered a very bloody "hero saves beauty" - the hero is naturally Shu Xiuhe, Yan was in danger and was shocked, but he saw a beautiful man falling from the sky and saved her.
Yan naturally wanted to ask the name of the life-saving benefactor, but when he asked, he found out that it was Shu Xiuhe, the Marquis of Guangping, so he secretly agreed.
Later, the Yan family went out several times to see Shu Xiuhe, intentionally or unintentionally, and finally Shu Xiuhe came to propose marriage for the third time, and the head of the Yan family was forced to agree to him due to his daughter's expectations.
The Yan family got married, ten miles of red makeup, and the Yan family married many shops, granges, mansions, etc., and the vast scene simply amazed many powerful families in the capital.
Yan gave birth to his eldest son Shu Hongxuan in the first year of marriage, and gave birth to his eldest daughter Shu Yanhua after three years, but finally died in the best years, leaving two little children.
After the Yan family came, they participated in the funeral with great grief, and then sealed the Yan family's dowry, one of the dowry list was held by the Yan family, one was given to Mrs. Guan, and the other was given to Shu Hongxuan, who was only five years old at the time, so that Guan and Shu Xiuhe could not be stopped.
Since then, every year, the Yan family will send a lot of children's daily use to Shu Hongxuan and Shu Yanhua.
Because in the name of sending some ordinary things to his niece and nephew, the Guan family would ask a few times at first, and later saw that it was indeed a very common gadget and food, and then he no longer cared about these things that children liked to play, and the Yan family sent someone to send them again, and they were directly sent to Shu Hongxuan and Shu Yanhua's yard.
The Guan family no longer asked, and the Mei family, as a stepmother, was even more difficult to peep at, so when the Yan family sent gold, silver, jewelry, and valuables after that, they didn't know anything.
Because when the Yan family delivered these things, they were all received by Qin's mother with Yan's companion, if it weren't for the fact that Chun'er later slowly became the personal big girl by Shu Yanhua's side, the Guan family and the others would still be kept in the dark.
It's a pity that even if the Guan family and the others knew about it at that time, they couldn't do anything more, so they had to watch as all the gold and silver mountains sent by the Yan family piled up towards Shu Hongxuan and Shu Yanhua's yard.
The moment Guan learned the news, several sets of tea sets were lost in the courtyard.
But in Shu Yanhua's memory, her grandfather's family fell at a rocket-like speed when she was fourteen years old.
The famous Yan family has disappeared from the position of one of the top ten richest people in Great Xia, and in the end can only return to their ancestral homeland to live on the grange.
Her brother didn't have enough connections at that time, and he knew that the Yan family's fall was deliberately targeted, but he couldn't find out, so he had to secretly endure it, and only find out the truth when he had the strength.
But my brother didn't sit still, that is, from that time on, my brother began to take care of the dowry left by his mother, and since then, there have been more and more industries, and my brother began to help my grandfather's family, and when she was dying, the Yan family also improved, and everything went in a good direction.
Pity......
"Sister Hua... Sister Hua..."
Shu Yanhua's ears sounded Qin's mother's worried cry, she interrupted her thoughts, saw the worried eyes of Qin's mother and others, and smiled comfortingly: "Oh, don't worry, I'm fine, I just remembered my mother." ”
Mother, it's Yan's family, Mother Qi and the others all have a look of understanding and pity.
"Sister Hua, this is a gift list, I have already made a book and put it in the warehouse." Mother Qin handed Shu Yanhua the gift list sent by the Yan family this time.
Shu Yanhua took it and took a look, and her grandfather's family sent a jewelry box this time, five pieces of cloth, and seven or eight other gadgets.
The things sent this time are suitable for spring, after the New Year, or a month is the spring equinox, the heavy winter clothes will be taken off, and the girls put on the spring clothes of moderate thickness to show their slender figure.
Shu Yanhua sighed, her grandfather's family thinks about her and her brother all the time, and she can't forget their brothers and sisters all year round, and when she thinks of what happened to her grandfather's family two years later, she has a sense of urgency, so how can she get in touch with the Fifth Highness and let him be her backer?
She frowned and pondered, do you want to have a "hero to save beauty"? As for who is the hero and who is the beauty, she has not considered it for the time being.
