Chapter 251: Silver Reward
Mama Su got off the donkey, and hurriedly helped Chen Wenhui and Zhao Chongyi to start with the clansmen of the Zhao family, and recognized their relatives one by one. This is the second uncle, this is the third uncle, and this is the fourth aunt. After a circle, Chen Wenhui got countless red seals, and of course, more of this gift was given. These members of the Zhao family basically got some precious items. The male elders are all a small three-inch high red gold birthday star, the female elders are all a jade jade pendant, there are blessing and longevity double stars, there are all the best, the male peers are all a side of the inkstone, and the female peers are all a pair of red gold bracelets. The male juniors are all a green jade pendant, with a pattern of sealing the marquis immediately, and a pattern of all the best. The younger generation of women is a pair of red gold hairpins, with cordyceps, flowers, and bonsai.
These are for ordinary people. After recognizing their relatives, they were the people who visited their own family, first the contemporary Zhongyi Gong, Uncle Zhao Chongli and his wife, after Chen Wenhui saluted them, they didn't dare to hold it up, after all, Chen Wenhui was the county lord of the imperial court, and he was also of grade, and they were busy saluting Chen Wenhui. Chen Wenhui gave a meeting gift, and what gave Zhao Chongli was a pen wash of an inkstone and a green jade. What was given to Han was a set of pearl heads, a total of seven, but there was less distraction than that given to Mrs. Zhao, the pearls were all as big as lotus seeds, round and jade, and very beautiful.
Next is Zhao Yufei, Chen Wenhui also gave a gift, it is the head of a set of gems, although Chen Wenhui hates her very much, but she is Zhao Chongyi's sister after all, Chen Wenhui is not stingy with this thing, the head of this set of gems is a total of six, but it is less distracted than Mrs. Zhao's. It's just a collar missing, but the workmanship is more exquisite, the gems are shining, Zhao Yufei couldn't take his eyes off it, and he wanted to find fault, but he forgot about it.
Next up is Zhao Chongxin. Chen Wenhui knew that the relationship between this younger brother and Zhao Chongyi was okay, so he also gave a pair of green jade paperweights.
Next are Zhao Chongli's children and two boys. Chen Wenhui gave each person a pair of white jade lion ornaments. A girl gave a set of gemstone heads. Of course, this girl is a little younger, and she doesn't need these jewelry heads yet, but. None of this is a problem. You can save it. I'll take it with me when I grow up.
There are also two boys and a girl, and Chen Wenhui gave each of the two boys a small ruyi of red gold. It's two inches long and very delicate. The girl is a pair of red gold bracelets, which also weigh about two taels. The portion size is sufficient.
The last to see were the four or five aunts of the old loyal and righteous father. These are nominally Chen Wenhui's mothers-in-law, so Chen Wenhui each sent four colored satins. There are also Zhao Chongli's three aunts, these Chen Wenhui don't have to salute, it was the three aunts who saluted her, and Chen Wenhui was also generous, and each of them gave two colored satins.
Next, it was Chen Wenhui who was sitting upright, and the male and female servants and stewards of the Zhongyi Mansion came to salute Chen Wenhui. Mama Su, who was beside Chen Wenhui, said, "Please just kowtow in the yard." The county lord has a reward, according to the rank, divided into ten taels, eight taels, five taels, three taels, two taels, one tael of red, a while by the person to send it. ”
After speaking, Chen Wenhui's guards came up with two large boxes, and when they opened them, there were silver ingots neatly stacked inside, with one or two one, two or two, three or two, five taels, eight taels, and ten taels. Categorized, neatly and neatly, it looks silver and shining, shining on people's eyebrows. At this time, a water lotus found the housekeeper of the Zhao family, took the roster, and distributed silver rewards to the servants in the courtyard.
Chen Wenhui rewarded him with such a generous amount from top to bottom, and suddenly the entire mansion from the big housekeeper to the rough mother-in-law in the mansion had a reward, everyone was happy, and the praise was endless, and Mrs. Zhao was even more angry.
The recognition was over, everyone got gifts, everyone was happy, and Chen Wenhui began to chat amiably with the female relatives of the clan. She was respectful to her elders, she was very friendly to her peers, and she was very kind to her juniors.
Mrs. Zhao was even more angry.
Fortunately, it was not early, and when it was time for the meal, Lao Zhongyi announced the start of the meal, and everyone moved to the banquet hall, where the banquet had been set up inside and outside. There are also four or five tables for men, and five or six tables for women, because most of the women are still with children, so there are more people.
After eating, Chen Wenhui said goodbye to Zhao Chongyi, Mrs. Zhao's angry teeth itched, but Lao Zhongyi said: "You two went to the palace early in the morning, you should be tired, let's go back and rest quickly." ”
got this sentence, Chen Wenhui and his wife took the opportunity to go home.
Chen Wenhui and the two returned to their own mansions, and suddenly their whole body relaxed.
Zhao Chongyi and Chen Wenhui went to their room, Chen Wenhui hurriedly sat in front of the dresser, and asked Shuilian to take off the cumbersome jewelry on her head, and when everything was taken off, Chen Wenhui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Zhao Chongyi smiled and said, "You are the most afraid of wearing these things." However, too, these things are good-looking, but they are also too heavy. I don't think you have to carry so many things every day, just embellish them with one or two, you are so beautiful, even the jinghai cloth clothes can hardly hide the beauty of the country. ”
Chen Wenhui loosely pulled a roll, took a green jade bamboo hairpin, changed out of the big dress, wore a homely silver-red cardigan, and the skirt full of pearls was also replaced, and put on a light red Xiangfei skirt, which was very comfortable. Think about it or in the comfort of your own home. If she returned to Zhao Chongyi's small courtyard in the Zhongyi Mansion at this moment, could she dress casually like this? It's really a golden nest and a silver nest is not as good as your own kennel. What's more, this is not a kennel, and this mansion is much more beautiful than the Zhongyi Mansion. At this moment, Chen Wenhui was full of comfort, and after listening to Zhao Chongyi's praise, she said happily in her heart: "Where am I as beautiful as you say." I really don't like wearing those things, though. It's weird and tiring. It's Mrs. Zhao, I think she can stand it, every time I see her, she is wearing a pearl on her head, isn't it tiring? Even the queen doesn't wear a phoenix crown every day? ”
Zhao Chongyi said: "You still mention her? She's all angry with you today, it's good that she didn't vomit blood if she provoked her so much in front of the whole clan. Haha, thinking of her deflated appearance, I feel comfortable in my heart. ”
Chen Wenhui said: "Anyway, it's good if you don't say I'm rude." I'm like this, you respect me, I respect you. But if you dare to offend me, I will pay it back. She provoked me several times, if I didn't fight back, could it still be me? If you're not afraid that I'm not filial to my mother-in-law, just watch, I still have tricks to deal with her. ”
Zhao Chongyi said: "Why should I be filial to her, she is my mother-killing enemy." Hmph, I only hate her. ”
Chen Wenhui was about to speak.
Zhao Chongyi said again: "However, I am just afraid that your reputation will be damaged, after all, if your daughter-in-law and mother-in-law make trouble, it is the daughter-in-law who suffers, and people in the world will say that you are not filial." ”
Chen Wenhui pursed her lips and said, "That's an ordinary person, afraid of those rotten mouths." Our family girls are not afraid. Don't you see that? Today's emperor, how filial was his own mother to the queen mother? For the Li family, he has been beaten for decades, what is filial piety? Do those rotten people dare to speak up? Our family girls are not afraid of these rotten people. I'm especially not afraid, anyway, I'm going back to Nanyang in the future. There, what I'm talking about is the Holy Decree, and every qiē is according to what I say, so what do you care about? ”
Speaking of this, Zhao Chongyi's face showed a trace of hesitation.
Chen Wenhui found it sensitively, and she hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" You don't want to go back to Nanyang with me? ”
Zhao Chongyi gritted his teeth and said, "Of course I want to go to Nanyang with you and see the city you built." However, there is one thing I have never told you. ”
After speaking, he told the prince Liu Yan that he wanted to stabilize the northwest for Liu Yan. After speaking, Zhao Chongyi said apologetically to Chen Wenhui: "I know that you have put a lot of effort into Nanyang, and now it is a critical period of construction, and that is the place where we will live and work in peace and contentment in the future and pass on the family business to future generations." But, as soon as I come, the prince is my good friend, and if I don't help him, who will help him? Second, I have been in the northwest for so many years, many of my colleagues around me have paid their lives and blood for the stability of the northwest, I don't want them to pay in vain, if there is no proper person to manage the northwest, in the future, there will be a new grassland powerhouse, that is, a new barbarian, our Dachu will be passively beaten again, aren't my comrades paying in vain? ”
Chen Wenhui thought for a moment. She really didn't think about this problem, now is the critical moment of Nanyang construction, this time for her wedding, she has been away from Nanyang for more than half a year, she has long been anxious, and now she can't wait to rush back immediately. However, we can't ignore Zhao Chongyi's feelings. He was her husband after all. Could it be that she wants to go back to Nanyang alone, and then let Zhao Chongyi go to the northwest alone?
Zhao Chongyi saw Chen Wenhui embarrassed and said: "Hui'er, don't worry, the prince won't let me go back to the northwest now, why don't you set off after the beginning of spring next year, during this period of time, we are all in the capital." ”
Chen Wenhui thought about it, such a big thing is not something that can be discussed in a day or two. She said, "Well, no matter what happens in the future, let's live our days now." Why don't we go and see where I have for the snow? When we get back the day after tomorrow, I'm going to take the snow over and live there. What do you think? ”
Zhao Chongyi grabbed Chen Wenhui's hands and said affectionately: "Thank you, Hui'er, you are really thoughtful." (To be continued......)
