Chapter 106: Chinese New Year (3)
Mama Dai is the old lady who accompanies Mrs. Ma, she is very decent, and she personally ran this trip today, which shows that Mrs. Ma attaches great importance to the arrival of the Ji family.
This reception banquet was extraordinarily rich, and there was a lot of food in the New Year's Festival, and it was specially explained by Mrs. Ma, a table of good wine and good food.
In addition to the people in the long room, Zhou let Zhenjing play with his brothers, and took Zhenqiong to talk to the concubines. The Zhang family in the second room was also there, and Zhen Jue did not lean in front of her mother-in-law, sitting in the sisters' pile.
Zhen Xuan listened to the sisters talking and laughing, and at the same time raised her eyes to look at the Jin family who was talking to Mrs. Ma. Kim's good words made the old lady and the wife in the house laugh.
Changfang will have these actions, and the reason for this is not to be said by others, Zhen Xuan also knows, it is because Yu Hui married into the Mu family. Changfang didn't know the twists and turns in the marriage, and because of the relationship between the Mu family, the Pei family now has a lot of dealings with the Yongliang Palace, and they were originally in-laws, so even if the Ji family is white now, Mrs. Ma is also very high-minded.
Yu Cong's mind was lively, and he soon got along with the Pei family sisters. Not to mention a few young ladies, Zhen Jue is kind to everyone in front of people, awkward as Zhenhuan, looking at Yu Cong is also born to an aunt, I feel a little close in my heart.
As he was talking, there was a crisp greeting outside, and Master Ji and Yu Jun came in with the curtains.
Master Ji asked Mrs. Ma for peace, and because of a room of children, he didn't sit long and went back. Yu Jun didn't need to shy away so much among relatives at this age, and was left behind by Mrs. Ma.
Yu Jun has studied, although he is not like the children of the Pei family who are taught by Mr., but his foundation is not bad, plus he has studied business, and his brain is more ordinary than ordinary books. Mrs. Ma asked a few casual questions, and they all answered the truth.
"Mrs. in-laws, you just said that this brother doesn't have any ink in his stomach, it turns out that he is my old woman." Mrs. Ma turned her head and said to the Jin family, "At such a young age, the in-laws have taken a lot of effort, right?" ”
Kim was proud. Don't dare to show too much on your face. said modestly: "Brother Jun'er is as good as the old lady said, but he follows his father everywhere on weekdays and listens to the words of various families, not that he has many ideas." ”
Mrs. Ma waved her hand. Some disagree: "What's wrong with listening more and walking more, see more." After that, he looked at the Cao family again, and said. This kid is two or three years older than Zhenlu, and his vision is much bigger. Don't keep holding the child, let him go out with him more. ”
Cao Shi heard this. Hurriedly nodded and responded.
After talking about Yu Jun, Mrs. Ma thought of Yu Cong again, when she saw it when she saluted just now, she only felt that she looked pleasant, and she was dragged to the young lady's pile to talk before she had time to take a closer look, so she said, "Let the girl come and take a look with me." ”
Yu Cong heard her calling here. Busy with Mrs. Ma, her mouth was sweet. In just a few words, the elders were happy.
Cao's family was a little unhappy because the old lady used to praise Yu Jun and said Zhenlu, but she was open-minded and amused by Yu Cong, and her heart was much more comfortable.
Yu Cong is the niece of Ji's maiden family, and the Cao family and the Ji family have always been close, even because of this relationship, she has to be kind to the Ji family's brothers and sisters.
Cao Shi took Yu Cong's hand, called Zhen Qi over again, smiled and said to Mrs. Li: "Sixth aunt, this Cong girl is really a treasure, when it comes to happy things to be the same as Zhen Qi, I am happy when I look at it." I'm just a person who likes to listen to happy things, and my aunt must let Cong Yatou stay for a few more days, so I can follow it. ”
Mrs. Li was in a good mood, and when Cao Shi said it, she scolded with a smile: "The five girls don't make me laugh a lot on weekdays, are you seizing the opportunity to take back the principal with interest?" ”
Everyone laughed, and Zhou also squinted, pulled Yu Cong to his side, looked at it carefully, and said, "The children in the family have all kinds of temperaments, and this is the excitement." My daughter is too quiet, she likes to read and paint, and she refuses to be coquettish with me, and I am a bit lonely as a mother sometimes. Mrs. in-laws, I really envy you. ”
Jin was about to respond to a few words and say that it is good to be quiet and quiet, but he saw that Zhou took off a gold bracelet in his hand and wanted to bring it to Yu Cong, and said busily: "The sixth lady is really lifting the second sister, such a heavy gift, it is not easy to accept." ”
Yu Cong also knew that it was not good, and wanted to take her hand back, but Zhou refused to let go, and she didn't dare to use her strength, so she stood there with a red face and couldn't advance or retreat.
"How much gold can be used for this thin bracelet, even a small gold nude is heavier than this, what is tight." After Zhou said, he brought the bracelet to Yu Cong, raised his hand to take a closer look, and said, "Miss Cong's hands are white, and she looks good when she wears it, but if you don't give it back to me, I will be unhappy." ”
Yu Cong stared at the bracelet, looked at Jin embarrassedly, and saw that Jin nodded slightly, so he breathed a sigh of relief and saluted seriously.
I accepted the gift, but I still had a pimple in my heart. When he returned to the Pavilion, Yu Cong asked Zhen Xuan in a low voice, "That sixth aunt, has she always been so generous?" ”
Zhen Xuan was stunned by the question, and didn't know what to say: "I used to go to other rooms less, and I started to move around more last year, and from last year to now, you are the only one who comes to visit the relatives, I really don't know how the sixth aunt of Lu Dao used to be." Seeing that Yu Cong was still frowning and looking at the bracelet, Zhen Xuan said with relief, "Don't think so much, the sixth aunt really likes you." What's more, in addition to going to work, how much gold can be used for this thin bracelet is really not as good as a small naked man. You see that others don't say much, do they? If you think this gift is too heavy, the other aunts will not be left behind, and they will all take out a similar one. ”
There are only so many people in the Ji family, Yu Cong doesn't understand those things in the big family, and when he heard Zhen Xuan say this, he was relieved and didn't think much about it. As soon as his mind relaxed, he fell asleep, and Zhen Xuan didn't sit much when he saw this, so he made an appointment to talk about it early tomorrow morning.
The sixth day of the first month is a good day, Mrs. Li ate too much wine last night and didn't wake up, Jin and Ji talked, back and forth back to the bracelet.
"I also looked at the bracelet carefully, it was really exquisite, it was so fine, and it was carved with a lot of patterns, this craftsmanship, there is no master in Shaozhou City." Jin sighed, she has always liked these jewelry, and her vision is high, and ordinary things are not eye-catching, "When preparing a dowry for the eldest sister." I didn't worry less, I chose all the gold and jade with my heart, and my eyes were all dazzled, so I chose it properly. Thinking that the second sister will also need it in a few years, I just want to ask you, which one in Yongzhou is good. I want to look first. Shaozhou: I've seen it all. Since I'm here this time, let's take a look at this side. ”
Ji has been married for many years, and she still remembers her sister-in-law's hobbies clearly, after her parents left. It's all up to Kim to bring her up. In addition to the dowry left by the old lady of the Ji family, there are many that were selected by the Jin family. Jin was afraid that her sister-in-law would not like it, so she held it in front of her and watched it with her. Reminiscing about those days. Ji couldn't help laughing: "Sister-in-law, when you pick for the eldest sister, do you let her see it?" ”
The Jin family was mentioned by the Ji family. also thought about it, and laughed out loud: "Where is it, let her pick it together, she doesn't wear the one I choose, and it is pressed at the bottom of the box in vain." After Jin finished speaking, he suddenly saw Ji's body without gold and silver, and his heart tightened. The secret passage is broken, and he almost forgot the identity of the Ji family's surviving person. Aren't the ones that were prepared for her at that time now the bottom of the box?
Jin laughed embarrassedly twice, and his brain turned quickly: "Second sister, I also want her to pick it together, speaking of which, Sister Xuan is too, I will take it with me this time, pay attention to what she likes first, and then tell you." ”
Ji has been widowed for many years, and after listening to the unintentional words of others, he didn't go to his heart like the first two years, and saw that Jin was busy remedy, and smiled: "I don't go out often, I really don't know which one is good and which one is bad, I went back and asked a few sisters-in-law, and when I returned to the old lady, my sister-in-law took the second sister and Xuan'er to have a look." Xuan'er generally wears a lot of silk flowers and floral hairpins, I'm a mother, and I really don't know what kind of gold Sister Xuan likes to use. ”
Hearing that he could go out, Yu Cong was excited, Zhen Xuan was also full of joy, Ji couldn't bear to be disappointed, and went to inquire with Cao's family, knowing that there are several jewelry shops in the east of the city that are good, but some really good things are sent directly to various mansions, and they are rarely put out for sale.
The Cao family was also a little embarrassed to say that in the past, there were also those who were sent to Pei's mansion, but Mrs. Li and the Ji family were widowed in Qing'an Hall, so they didn't bring them to see. Because the first few sisters usually don't like to use gold jewelry, they rarely buy it, so they forgot to ask Zhen Xuan if she wanted to buy some daily use.
As for Zhen Xuan's future marriage, they are all in accordance with the rules of the clan, according to the number of young ladies and sisters-in-law, and they will buy a share every year, which are all selected by the Zhou family, no matter which house it is.
Ji Shi only then remembered that there seemed to be such a thing, when she first gave birth to Zhen Xuan, Zhou mentioned it to her, but she had never passed through it, and she forgot it after more years.
Zhen Xuan heard it for the first time, and said blankly: "What? Do you have one for us? ”
"They are all young ladies of the Pei family, and it is also appropriate for the clan to prepare a part of the dowry. There are more concubines, less concubines, and in the future, each room will prepare some by itself, which can also be decent. It's up to your six aunts to choose, so as not to favor one over the other, although the style is a little different, but the value will not be much worse. ”
Zhen Xuan listened to Ji's words and sighed secretly. The Pei family is a big family, and I believe that the things prepared by the clan will not be bad, which is the dignity of the whole clan. In the future, Wufang will be weaker, and it should not be impossible to see people, Zhen Xuan thought like this, quite self-deprecating.
The Jin family inquired about the shop, talked to Mrs. Li, and took Yu Cong and Zhen Xuan out of the house in a carriage.
Because of the New Year's Festival, the streets are particularly lively, with elders by the side, and the rules are more relaxed. Yu Cong lifted a corner of the curtain, secretly looked outside, and kept asking Zhen Xuan.
Jin also glanced at it and said, "I haven't been here for a few years, and I can't recognize them, and only a few time-honored brands seem familiar." ”
Zhen Xuan smiled and wanted to ask about the time-honored brands of the Jin family, Yu Cong on the side pulled her sleeve hard, looked out the window without blinking, and exclaimed, "Is it my brother standing over there?" There are a few more people on the side. Hey, Cousin Xuan, isn't that purple robe? ”
