On December 30 of the eighth year of Xuanli, there was heavy snow like goose feathers in Jinling City.

The white elves flew in the sky, white the treetops and branches, and the roof cornices, but red the proud plum.

Yu Wenyun independent plum garden, let the snowflakes fall between the tips of her hair and eyebrows, pouted, looked at the few plum blossoms that had bloomed on the branches, and thought that the plum blossoms in the house on the shore of Xuanwu Lake should also be in full bloom.

There are a lot of royal etiquette, and there are even more during the Chinese New Year, and I went to see the imperial grandmother yesterday and chatted with the imperial grandmother all day.

I was going to go out to breathe today, but my mother said that this is Chinese New Year's Eve, where is there any reason to run out, so ...... That man is alone in Shangjing, how should he spend his Chinese New Year's Eve?

Could he be lonely?

Can Shulan come out to accompany him?

Ay...... The imperial grandmother said that it was not a good thing to find a day for him to enter the palace to have a look, because the imperial grandmother just wanted to ask him, why didn't Lin Daiyu marry Jia Baoyu?

yes, why?

Yu Wenyun also finished reading a dream of the Red Mansion, and she didn't understand it. If it is said that it is because Lin Daiyu is weak and sick, Jiafu is afraid that she will not be able to give birth, but if she marries Lin Daiyu and takes Xue Baochai as a concubine, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?

The imperial grandmother also seems to be aware of the matter between herself and Fu Xiaoguan, and there are more side warnings in her words, it seems that the imperial grandmother does not like Fu Xiaoguan, but the imperial grandmother has never seen him.

Is it possible to make it because of that book?

Yu Wenyun was puzzled, thinking that only after he went to see the imperial grandmother, he hoped that the imperial grandmother would like him.

……

In the Fu Mansion on the shore of Xuanwu Lake, Dong Shulan and Fu Xiaoguan stood side by side in a hall.

Fu Xiaoguan asked Chunxiu to call all the people in the mansion over, and there was a box in front of him, and the box was full of red envelopes.

This was wrapped by Chunxiu and him last night, of course, Su Rou was also involved later, she was just curious, and she didn't know what this thing was used for.

Each of these red envelopes is a silver ticket of ten taels of silver, and the young master said, this is the New Year, and I have to give everyone a bonus - I think it is the money of the reward.

Under the control of Dong Shulan and Yu Wenyun, the Fu Mansion now has a full 180 family slaves and maids, and there are also 30 guards from Xishan, these people are standing in the hall together, and they don't know what the young master is going to do.

"Today's Chinese New Year's Eve, we all see everyone's efforts these days, my fiancée, your future main mother, she is a kind-hearted person, I think everyone is very hard, this New Year should give you some rewards." Therefore I have called you to-day, that is, your mistress will give you this reward with her own hand, and I hope that you will do your best for this mansion in the days to come. ”

Fu Xiaoguan told Dong Shulan about this last night, she felt quite novel, the people in this house have never lost a penny of their monthly money, why do they still send them those red envelopes?

Fu Xiaoguan's explanation she figured it out, and it turned out that this was the meaning of spurring.

Now that the Fu Mansion was not short of silver, she agreed after a moment of silence.

The crowd below was in a commotion, many of them were hand-picked by Dong Shulan, and the monthly money they received was higher than that given by the vast majority of the lords in Shangjing, and now the master mother actually wanted to reward them, which was undoubtedly an unexpected surprise.

Dong Shulan smiled, like a spring breeze. She was very happy in her heart, because Fu Xiaoguan said that she was the future housewife!

Her small mouth opened lightly, "I reiterate the rules of the Fu Mansion here, everyone does their best, I am not stingy with rewards, but if there is a person who cheats and even harms the interests of the Fu family, I can't tolerate him." The time we spent together was short, and the days to come were long. I'm not mean, but I ask you to be disciplined. ”

"This thing is called a red envelope, and it has not been assessed this year, so everyone is the same, one red envelope per person, and there are ten taels of silver tickets inside!"

The crowd suddenly stirred, and their faces were excited, ten taels of silver!

Their monthly money is about 900 wen, which is ten taels of silver...... Isn't that equivalent to a year's income!

There is no family in Shangjing City who is so generous, even if it is the six major gates.

So...... "Slave and maid, thank you, master!" ”

"The villain will definitely go to the soup for his mother!"

"Heavenly ...... Villain, this is, what kind of luck did you go to meet such a kind and generous mastermother! ”

“……”

Dong Shulan understood the happiness in the meantime, she laughed happily, it felt so good to be complimented by these people, especially the main mother, who made her heart flutter.

"Alright, alright!" Dong Shu raised his hand and pressed it, and the crowd finally quieted down, "There will naturally be a punishment for this reward, and you will be assessed next year, and the red envelope at the end of the year will be determined according to the assessment, and the red envelope for those who do well will naturally be greater, but if there are people who do poorly, this reward will probably be less, as for those who are detrimental to the interests of the Fu Mansion...... Not only will I not reward him, but I will either expel him from the Fu Mansion or hand it over to the government for investigation depending on the severity of the situation, you ...... It's clear! ”

Su Rou sat embroidering in the distance, listening to everything here, and felt that this pair of people was quite interesting.

Su Jue sat on the side reading a book, suddenly looked up at Su Rou and asked, "Third senior sister...... Do we have any red envelopes? ”

"You won't spend money, what do you want that red envelope for?"

Su Jue was slightly embarrassed, retracted his gaze and looked at the book upright.

Su Rou raised her eyebrows, and her thin eyes opened and looked at Su Jue, this nerd knows how to read!

Dong Shulan paused for a few breaths, and then said: "Okay, that's all I said, I'm a little long-winded, I just hope you can remember." Now come one by one, get the red envelope and go out, and today I will give you a holiday, if you want to buy something, go out and buy it. ”

The crowd was chaotic for a while, and then lined up in a regular manner, took the red envelopes from Dong Shulan's hands one by one, and bowed down and thanked the hostess.

After the red envelopes were distributed, the crowd left, and there were all kinds of cheers in the courtyard outside, all of which were praises to the housewife.

Dong Shulan took out a big red envelope from her sleeve pocket and beckoned to Chunxiu: "Chunxiu, this is a little bit of my heart." ”

"Ah......" Chunxiu hurriedly waved her hand: "The slave doesn't dare, please take it back." ”

Dong Shulan grabbed Chunxiu's hand, stuffed the red envelope into her hand, and said, "I know that you have served the young master since you were a child, and no one has a greater credit for this than yours." You also know that the young master is very busy, and the affairs of this house have to worry about you more. After all, I don't know much about other people in this mansion, only you will really think about the young master and this Fu mansion. ”

Chunxiu's tears flowed out, and she was very frightened, because the young master had grown up.

Today, the young master announced that this Miss Dong family is the main mother, and this Miss Dong family has also begun to exercise the rights of the main mother, and she seems to be no longer important, and the young master seems to no longer need her in the future.

"Why are you crying little girl? The reward given to you by the master mother is an affirmation of you, Shulan is right, she and I are very busy, and there will be some omissions in this house, and you have to help keep an eye on it. Otherwise, you will be the steward of this house. ”

When Chunxiu heard this, she hurriedly waved her hand, "If the slave doesn't have that ability, the slave and the maid will serve the young master and grandmother, as long as the young master and young grandmother don't dislike it...... Slaves and maids will serve you for the rest of your life! ”

Dong Shulan smiled, "You girl, we hope you can serve for a lifetime, but you have to marry in after all." See if you have someone you like, and if so, let me know, and I'll make the decision for you. ”

"Slave maid, slave maid doesn't want to marry."

"That's because you haven't met anyone you like yet, okay, we have to go."

Fu Xiaoguan and Dong Shulan left the Fu Mansion and went to the Dong Mansion, Chunxiu was at a loss for a long time, and then went to the main house, and cleaned up the house alone, thinking that this is the residence of the future young master and young grandmother, thinking about the former young master and the current young master, I couldn't stop crying again.

The young master really grew up, walked out of Linjiang, settled in the capital, and had two fiancées who were as beautiful as fairies, but this Miss Dong became the main mother, and the other one is Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess, so Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess can't be a concubine, right?

In the hall, Su Rou took the embroidered mandarin duck and looked at it, put it on the table, and sighed: "People love concubines, but I still have to go to the dark place to guard...... Senior brother, tell me what kind of this is? Why do I think we're trapped by our little brother? ”

Su Jue raised his head with a serious expression, "Third junior sister, don't complain, this is not just the idea of the junior brother, this is also the opinion of the master and his old man...... In addition, the master wrote that the sixth senior sister Su Su had left the temple on December 20 to travel the world, and I am afraid that she would come to Beijing to meet us. ”

Su Rou was slightly stunned, "This little girl can't stay stunned?" ”

"It's not that I can't stay still," the master said...... The birds in the view are gone. ”

Su Rou laughed, "It's okay if Su Su leaves for a while, the second senior brother is getting fatter and fatter." ”

"I'm worried about what if Susu comes here, but what is good?"

Su Rou thought about it, this is a problem, her piano sound, this white bird in the capital came to court, didn't it attract the attention of others?

"Or ...... I'm going to get her away? ”

A pink-carved man walked in with a huge black box on his back.

It was a case, wider than her body, at least half above her head, and it looked rather strange, but she seemed to be used to it.

She wore two small pigtails, a thin gray linen dress, a pair of bare feet that seemed to be whiter than the snow, a pair of embroidered shoes in one hand, and a string of rock sugar gourds in the other, licking as she walked, without feeling cold at all, and without thinking about the problem of this image.

She doesn't need an image, no matter what kind of image she is, she is the best image in the world!

"Third Senior Sister, who are you trying to drive out?"

Su Su licked the rock sugar gourd and walked into this hall, Su Jue suddenly woke up and asked, "How did you get in?" ”

"Oh, knock them all out, and I'll walk in."
