201 New year, new beginnings
The New Year is finally approaching, and Fuzhong is also busy. Bai Zhen'er has never slept lazy, busy with the affairs of the New Year, this is her first year as a bride, so she naturally has to do a good job.
After dinner, Bai Zhen'er took some lists and discussed with Shang Ying, "Husband, these are the personnel list I have prepared, can you see if there are any mistakes?" ”
This man's communication in the court is naturally reflected in the woman's communication with those noble ladies and wives in the backyard. Bai Zhen'er also did these things for the first time, because Shang Ying rarely told her about the outside things, and she also came up with a rough idea.
Since having Bai Zhen'er's housekeeper, Shang Ying also knows more about the things in the backyard, and naturally knows the reason behind the communication between the ladies. He took the list, looked at it briefly, and said, "Just follow this, what I have hanging in the Ministry of Rites is an idle job." I don't have a lot of interaction with them, so if I come, I'll entertain them, and don't invite them if I don't come. ”
This is a matter in Bai Zhen'er's backyard, and he doesn't want to know about too many twists and turns, so he naturally won't interfere too much, as long as she is happy.
"Yes, I see." Bai Zhen'er put away the list.
"By the way, the list also includes the He family of the Marquis of Rongyuan's mansion." Shang Ying suddenly remembered this stubble, and invited it, so the He family should also be invited.
"Why, is there some reason for it?" Bai Zhen'er knew that when she got married, someone from the He family came, but she didn't hear that this business house had anything to do with that side, so Bai Zhen'er didn't add the He family, after all, the He family is also a noble family.
"In the past, my mother had some relationship with Mrs. He. Later, they took care of me. Shang Ying only said a few words, Bai Zhen'er instantly understood what Shang Yan meant, she nodded and added the He family.
Bai Zhen'er packed up her things, and was ready to freshen up and go to bed, she remembered one more thing, "By the way, husband, this year, we will take the old lady back for the New Year, okay?" ”
Bai Zhen'er looked at Shang Ying's expression cautiously, for fear that he would be unhappy. But Shang Ying's face was pale, and he glanced at Bai Zhen'er. "As long as you can invite her old man."
Bai Zhen'er raised her eyebrows. Looking at this meaning, that is, Mrs. Shang is unwilling to come to the capital?
"Husband, what's the reason for this?" Bai Zhen'er wanted to ask, this Shang Mansion was indeed a little strange. At least for Mrs. Shang, this is the case.
"It's all old. You don't have to worry. That's all in the past. The old lady is only used to living over there. Shang Ying didn't finish the rest of the words, before this mansion was controlled by the people on the side of the main courtyard, but now it has changed. Maybe it will be different.
――
Bai Zhen'er said that she would do it, she immediately sent someone to send a lot of things to the old lady, and also passed on the intention of inviting the old lady to come to the house for the New Year. As a result, the old lady still refused, saying that she was used to living over there.
Bai Zhen'er never gave up, and still asked people to invite the old lady, but in the end, the old lady made a killer move, saying that if she was pregnant with the merchant's grandson one day, she would come back to take care of her eldest grandson.
As soon as she said this, Bai Zhen'er wilted in an instant.
They have been married for more than half a year and are very close, but her stomach just hasn't moved. Bai Zhen'er is also very entangled in this matter, but she also knows that she can't be anxious about the child.
She drank neutered soup in her last life and had no children in her life. In this life, she also pays attention to the maintenance of her body, but there is no problem with her body, but she has not moved.
In the evening, Bai Zhen'er said the old lady's words, "Husband, do you want us to have a child?" ”
Shang Ying's expression stiffened a little, and then his hand rested on her stomach, "There will be later." ”
"Well, I also know, not now, it's just that the time has not come." Bai Zhen'er looked at her stomach optimistically, it's still early, isn't it?
On the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Shang Martingale also came back relatively early. But as soon as he got home, someone came to report on the side: "Master, I heard that Shang Jue has returned to the capital." ”
Shang Ying paused, "When?" ”
"I arrived in the capital last night, and then I went to the Jin Palace, and now there is no news at all, and it is estimated that the people in the Princess Mansion do not know the news."
"It depends on the situation, and we will find a way to spread the news after the year." Shang Ying knew that Shang Jue had taken over the task of King Jin, and then went to the desert. What he did in secret was also very hidden, and Shang Ying only found out some of them, but he didn't know the specific things.
Bai Zhen'er is so busy at this time that her feet don't touch the ground, and it is the first time she knows that this business is so cumbersome, and she really underestimated these things before.
"Tired?" Shang Ying changed his clothes after walking into the house, but when he saw Bai Zhen'er looking tired, he immediately felt a little distressed.
"It's fine." Bai Zhen'er replied subconsciously, and then she put down the things in her hand and leaned over, "Husband." ”
When you're tired, it's also great to have someone around to make you spoiled.
"Huh?" Shang Ying stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around Bai Zhen'er and held the person in his arms.
"Husband, I've worked so hard, how are you going to reward me?" Bai Zhen'er pouted, reaching out to swirl on his chest.
Shang Ying raised his eyebrows. Then he glanced at the people who were waiting around, and the people around him also retreated very brightly. At this moment, there were only the two of them left in the house, Shang Ying reached out and picked her chin and said, "Is it okay for your husband to be in good shape?" ”
"Okay." Bai Zhen'er looked at him with a smile, but the face above was pressed down by herself, and there was a suffocating lingering hug.
The two of them rubbed privately for a while, and then Bai Zhen'er got up and said, "Husband, it's time, let's go out." ”
"Hmm." Shang Ying stood up, and the two of them sorted out each other's clothes, and walked outside.
First, I went to the main courtyard for dinner, but Mrs. Shang didn't know what was wrong, so she didn't show up. But Bai Zhen'er doesn't care about this, in her eyes, Mrs. Shangda is just a passerby.
After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, worship the ancestors together and watch the vigil.
Bai Zhen'er leaned next to Shang Ying and said, "In the past, at this time, Brother Fan and Sister Chao would come to me to ask me for New Year's money. When she talked about being in Baifu, her eyes were also full of light.
This year is the New Year they spend together, calm and warm.
The fireworks deliberately set off on the other side of the courtyard illuminated the entire Wutong Garden, and also illuminated their intertwined backs.
"Happy New Year." Shang Ying took out what had been prepared from his sleeve, which was an inconspicuous string of wooden bracelets.
"You too, husband." Bai Zhen'er looked down at him putting this bracelet on her wrist, she still remembered that last year, Shang Ying was behind the alley, and the two of them met.
In a blink of an eye, a year has passed.
She glanced at the fireworks, and she thought, thousands of rivers and mountains, it is really not easy for her to meet him.
(By the way, I said last time that there would be a big disaster in two years, but it was changed to five years later, and the time estimate was wrong, Smecta.) (To be continued.) )
