No matter how Ruan Bai slandered in his heart, all he was waiting for was the letters passed by Chu Hao, and there was nothing nutritious in them. The previous section was where I went, without the hindrance of the prisoner car, the group rode quickly, and it only took less than half the time to return to Shunyang Pass. The second half is mostly about what I eat every day, and I'm bored.

Ruan Bai's reply was similar, occasionally interspersed with some newly made dim sum recipes or something, as well as the recent situation of the general and his wife.

As for official business, the two sides didn't even touch on half a word, which made the Zhou family father and son who intercepted the information feel a little lost.

In fact, the main thing that was lost was Zhou Xiaomei, Zhou Da Mao...... cough, the emperor's majesty did not feel depressed at all, but was a little interested, and asked his son, "What's wrong with you?" is already a father, how can he still be awkward like a child! "He was the one who went to read the letters of his brothers, and now after seeing the letters, it seems that he was the one who was beaten.

Zhou Xiaomei pouted and looked at his father speechlessly. He wanted to show that he had to be a little more mature, and his father said, "Who will show this picture for?" You will live to be eighty years old, and you will still be my son! ”。 Ma Dan, it's so hard to be a son!

In the end, it is his own son, although he is not as good as other people's sons/Chu Hao, and there are many small problems, but they are not bad. The emperor straightened his face: "Say, what's the matter with you?" ”

Zhou Xiaomei didn't squirm again: "Father, the son thinks that the relationship between Chu Hao and this Ruan Bai doesn't look right." "He doesn't have the nuances of observation, but he has the instincts of a keen beast!

"Oh? What do you see? ”

"Erchen can't say anything, but he thinks that the relationship between the two of them is so good that he doesn't look like brothers." Don't say that Ruan Bai is just a righteous brother who came out halfway, even if he is a brother, born in a family like theirs, where can he really be a brother and a brother? His relationship with his second brother was not very good.

Besides, Ruan Bai said that he was Chu Hao's brother-in-law, and even called King Pingxi and the princess's father, and it seemed that the relationship was close enough, but Ruan Bai and Cao Xu held a ceremony in a serious manner, which can be regarded as worship. But what about Ruan Bai and Chu Hao? So far, it's just a verbal statement.

But this verbal relationship looks very similar to that, even more solid than Cao Xu's side. At least he could be sure that if Ruan Bai lived in General Cao's mansion, he could never say that he would bulldoze a few courtyards.

The emperor's eyes showed some interest, and he continued to ask, "Then what do you think they are like?" ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at his father several times before he said slowly: "Erchen thinks that they are more like ...... Husband and wife. Like Erchen and Songsong...... Ahem, Crown Princess, too. Every day I talk about what I eat and what I do......"

The emperor just looked at his stupid son and chattered for an hour, all about how he and the crown princess had a deep relationship. He really doesn't know whether to comfort his son and daughter-in-law for a good relationship, or worry about the relationship between the young couple is too good?

However, the relationship between Chu Hao and Ruan Bai ...... The emperor pondered for a moment, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and whispered to Gonggong Cai, who was waiting on the side: "Let's stop here." "The letters of the two children don't need to be withheld anymore.

They didn't know that if one more letter was intercepted, they would be completely sure of the relationship between Chu Hao and Ruan Bai.

Because in the following letters, both of them are discussing the preparations for the wedding.

Whether it is Chu Hao as the prince of the world or Ruan Bai as a local tyrant, the wedding of the two is obviously not something that can be done casually.

On Chu Hao's side, in fact, almost since he was born, Princess Pingxi has already begun to prepare a dowry for him. Of course, the man's dowry will be relatively simple. After all, the various large items that are popular in these years are still dominated by the woman's dowry. Such as all kinds of beds, tables and other furniture, good volume of wood is rare, and it has to be dried in the shade for I don't know how many years, plus all kinds of fine work, in order to become a qualified dowry. Coupled with a lot of embroidery and so on, many boudoir women will start embroidering dowries from the age of eleven or twelve, which often takes several years.

Now, Chu Hao is married to a man, so the rules in this regard are about to change.

Ruan Bai is even more complicated here. His financial resources are fine, but many things cannot be done with money. However, deep pockets can still make a lot of things easier.

In fact, Ruan Bai was not aware of this problem at the earliest. His mind is still stuck on the one-stop wedding company, buying a house, decorating and drinking the wedding wine trilogy. I didn't expect that there would be many thieves and many thieves in Da Zhou.

Ji Nandie, as the technical director, was also exhausted by this mess, and sighed: "It's a shame that Erlang is not a girl, otherwise this hijab wedding dress, how can I be in time to prepare now?" ”

No matter what the era, men's clothes are always much simpler than women's, even if they are wedding dresses.

Rao is like this, and the embroidery workshop cloth village in the capital has also been placed a lot of urgent orders, and it is full swing. Even some embroidery workshops have learned from Ruan Bailong's workshop, and have also set up a courtyard in the embroidery workshop to allow embroidery girls to gather together to work.

Not to mention, I don't know how much more efficient it is.

As the weather became colder and colder, the frequency of letters from Chu Hao's side also became slower. In these years, the transportation is inconvenient, and the only advantage is that as a privileged class, you don't have to worry about having no place to send express delivery during the Spring Festival. After all, they take a private line.

But Ruan Bai became more and more anxious, and always felt that he was a little anxious before marriage. There's no way, he used to be a job with an abnormal occupation and a little dangerous, and he always felt that for the sake of you, me, and everyone, he didn't think about love and marriage at all. He had even planned to be like his adoptive father, and if there was fate, the content of his work would become less ...... stimulated, he may change to a civilian position, and then consider whether to adopt a child, or find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to retire.

Anyway, he is an ordinary young man, and he suddenly wants to marry the daughter/son of a wealthy family, and the pressure is not ordinary. And this kind of feeling of door-to-door son-in-law, don't eat soft rice!

In the Pingxi Palace, Xiao Zhong took the two newly selected servants and two maids to familiarize themselves with the work. The five of them trembled from the beginning, and now they can be very determined, watching their second young master come and go in the courtyard like the wind and circle around.

When Ruan Bai turned in again, they just looked up out of obligation, but they didn't expect Ruan Bai to sit down directly and roll up his sleeves: "Prepare pen and ink." ”

"Yes!"

These four people are all seventeen or eighteen years old, and they are already considered the elite among the subordinates, and they were originally cultivated as small servants and big girls in each room. Not to mention literacy and hyphenation, the average housekeeper is okay. It's just that the population of the palace is small, which has created a situation of surplus talent.

Ruan Bai is going to train four people, and professional managers don't think about it, it's still okay to be a secretary or assistant. However, the paperwork is more difficult to find. The current scholars are very noble, and he doesn't want to play the signboard of the palace, and he doesn't have time to invite an ancestor to come back to offer. If he can't find it outside, he doesn't believe that he can't cultivate one.

Prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone, for these maids is their own job, and they are ready in the blink of an eye.

Ruan Bai took the pen and began to write the spread of paper.

Ji Nandie sent someone to deliver something, and after he went back, he said: "Ruan Ershao is busy in the study, and the villain hasn't seen him." "He is the general's wife, Ruan Bai is a rabbit master who dares not even show his face, sigh.

Ji Nandie glanced at the housekeeper with a smile, and didn't speak, until he saw that his forehead was sweating, and then he said softly: "You should be called the second cousin young master." ”

The affairs of the master's family, when will it be his turn to be a subordinate? Do you really think that if you become a housekeeper, you can really talk and count in this family?

The housekeeper was sweating profusely, knelt down and kowtowed: "Yes, the villain knows that he is wrong." But he was secretly jealous in his heart, didn't Ruan Bai just rely on a face, not only climbed up to the prince of Pingxi, but also caught up with their housewife. I know that kid is not a good thing, sometimes when the general is not there, he can come to the door by himself, and he doesn't know how to avoid suspicion at all. Now look at the master's mother to defend that kid like this, don't ......

Ji Nandie waved his hand, asked the housekeeper to go down, and beckoned the big girl over: "Tell people to stare at him, don't let him say anything that shouldn't be said." ”

The big girl replied softly, "Yes." ”

There is no impermeable wall in the world, Ruan Bai's movements are not small, and he has not deliberately engaged in any confidential work, and the preparations for marriage can be seen by anyone with eyes.

When colleagues congratulated Ruan Bai one after another, they also asked him: "I don't know whose girl it is?" When will I be able to go to the house to disturb a glass of wine? ”

Ruan Bai bowed his head slightly and blushed and said, "It's not from the capital, I met in Shunyang Pass." It's still early to get married, and you have to wait for the New Year at the earliest. ”

If you are closer, you will also ask: "Is the girl beautiful?" Isn't it particularly talented? ”

"That's what it looks like. Talent is ...... He's so smart that he can look at everything. Ruan Bai's eyebrows and eyes were smiling when he said this, and he really liked it at first glance.

Some adults who have other thoughts can only sigh in their hearts. Thinking that Ruan Bai was still young, and because of the rumors with Chu Hao before, even if they wanted to give Ruan Bai a matchmaker, they always thought about waiting. I didn't expect this to wait, people already have a partner, and they are all about to get married.

Also, like Ruan Bai, who wouldn't catch it? looks red lips and white teeth, has a lot of money, and has a bright future, even if his background is a little worse, there is a behemoth like Pingxi Wangfu behind him. If a girl from any family can marry Ruan Bai, then she will be properly blessed.

Such a Ruan Lang would marry a Shunyang...... Country girl?!

Ruan Bai didn't care what the officials thought, he himself took the thick pile of recitals written overnight yesterday and asked to see the emperor, and almost without waiting, he was taken to the imperial study by Xiao Xizi.

The emperor quickly finished reading Ruan Bai's recital, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching. Such a thick pile of paper, the number of words is no less than 10,000 words. The above content is very simple, first according to the format of the emperor praised, the Great Zhou praised, and then his own achievements to the Great Zhou one by one, and finally praised the emperor, by the way to find the emperor as a matchmaker.

"Ruan Lang wants me to give you a match?"

Ruan Bai looked at the emperor with blank eyes and nodded: "Ah." ”
