The Xiao family is a long-lived family with a large population, not only many sons, but also many daughters.

A group of warblers and swallows gathered at the door of the back house, all of them were purple, and the silk and satin clothes on their bodies were gorgeous, and Fang Jun was dazzled, stretching out his hand to ask Fang Jun for a reward, and the chirping was like a hundred birds and a phoenix, which made Fang Jun's ears roar, and his head was bigger......

Fortunately, he had been prepared, and Qu Tuquan was carrying a large basket of red envelopes made of red paper, printed with exquisite patterns, and containing new copper coins.

A female dependent came to ask for it, Qu Tuquan handed it over with a smile, and took the opportunity to touch it on the plain white little hand, which caused the female dependents to scream, and retreated with a red face, staring at Qu Tuquan, a disciple, with a resentful and surprised gaze, but there was not much annoyance......

Datang is open, especially on a festive day like today, and this degree of flirtation is all acceptable to everyone.

After all, taking a concubine is not a formal marriage, and all procedures should be reduced.

After making a fuss for a while, a girl who accompanied the marriage helped Xiao Shu'er and sat in the sedan chair brought by the Fang family, the sedan curtain was covered, and the sedan chair man played by Fang Jun's own soldiers got up the sedan chair and carried the small sedan chair out of the corner door on the side of the Song Guogong Mansion.

The status of concubines in this era is extremely low.

Not only should they enter their husband's house through the side door, but they should also be carried out through the side door of their mother's house when they get married......

Even if it is the daughter of the Xiao family, even if the Fang family becomes a rich man, it is the same.

In front of the Song State Mansion, the earth-shattering gongs and drums sounded.

The people in the workshop have already flocked in, and there is a lot of discussion. It is not uncommon for the Xiao family to marry a daughter, but who has such a status except for the royal family to be able to marry the daughter of the Xiao family as a concubine? It's unbelievable. However, Fang Jun has an excellent reputation among the people, and when he went out of the gate in a lucky suit, turned over and stepped on the jujube red horse, and marched forward heroically, the people on the side of the road applauded.

"Fang Erlang, good job!"

The people really think of Fang Junniu, and they all like to see it.

But the people who sent off the Xiao family shouted black-faced, so embarrassed......

What does it mean to "Fang Erlang is good"? Feelings: My daughter's daughter deserves to be a concubine for Fang Jun, right? Or is it that my daughter-in-law finally came out to be a concubine, and you are happy to look at it?

……

Chongrenfang is more lively here, and the neighbors here are more familiar with Fang Jun, knowing that although this is rumored to be a "mallet" by the outside world, he is the most approachable, and Chongrenfang is inhabited by high-ranking officials and nobles, princes and princesses, but the servants and maids of these families all think that Fang Erlang is a gentle character.

has a good temperament, can't treat people, has a high official position, and talent, who doesn't want him to live well?

So from the beginning of entering the gate of Chongrenfang, the crowd was noisy, and from time to time someone called out words such as "Fang Erlang Gonghou Wandai" and "Hundred Years of Good Harmony", and the atmosphere became more and more enthusiastic.

Fang Jun sat upright on the horse, walked slowly, showed a polite smile, and frequently replied.

Dozens of firecrackers have already been paved in front of the house, red firecrackers are spread all over the front half of the street, lighting twists, the sound of crackling firecrackers is deafening, and the smoke of gunpowder is filled with the whole street, as if there is a fairy saint or a divine beast infested......

The big red cannon skin exploded and flew all over the sky with the light of the fire, which was particularly festive.

Fang Jun got off the horse in front of the gate and entered through the gate, and the small sedan chair carrying his aunt bypassed the main entrance, entered the house through the side door on one side, and carried directly to the back house.

……

The house is full of lights and beaming.

Although this benevolent brother has a faint posture of "becoming an immortal" in the study all day long, but his brother has to come forward to take a concubine, so he can't let his father come out, right? Fortunately, although his temperament is a little pedantic, he is meticulous about etiquette, steady and steady, and no one can find a mistake.

Besides, there are also Li Siwen, Qu Tuquan and other friends to take care of, these guys dare to be in the same hole every day when they are messing around, and they are more than one by one, but in the end, they are all children of the Xungui family, and this kind of scene is not a problem at all.

The back house has its own eldest sister Princess Han's cooking, and Wu Meiniang can't come forward on this occasion, no matter how capable she is, she is always a concubine......

The front yard is full of guests.

Even if it's just a concubine, who makes Fang Jun prosperous in officialdom now? Drilling camps, ancient and modern, this is the norm of officialdom. A group of middle-level officials came to congratulate and send congratulatory gifts, and seeing that the Fang family did not have a big feast, obviously not planning to be extravagant, they came to Fang Jun and said a few words of congratulations, and said goodbye one after another.

But Li Ji, Li Jing, Cen Wenwen, Li Xiaogong and other bigwigs sat firmly, after all, Fang Xuanling had been in the incense for so many years, and he would definitely stay for a happy drink.

The eldest grandson Wuji didn't come today, this is reasonable, at the moment the Fang family and the eldest grandson's family are not just strangers, they are simply-for-tat, the character of the eldest grandson Wuji, it seems to be peaceful but in fact he is so proud that he can come to the door to congratulate the Fang family?

But the face of the officialdom was there, so the eldest grandson was sent to come......

At the main entrance, Fang Jun greeted each other with his eldest grandson.

These two childhood playmates are now drifting apart and becoming strangers.

The eldest grandson is tall and handsome, and now that the eldest grandson has fled to the end of the world, he has already become the heir of the eldest grandson Wuji's preferred family, adding a little more calm and capable, he is already an outstanding young handsome, and he looks even more extraordinary.

"Congratulations to Erlang, I have heard that this concubine of the Xiao family is the beauty of the country Zhong Lingyuxiu, when this family affair was decided, I don't know how many Jiangnan children sighed and lost their souls, and they can't wait to replace him, they are the children of Chang'an, and they are also envious, but now they are in the Fang family, Erlang invites the heavens, this luck is simply against the sky, it is really a blessing."

"Hehe, what's there to envy? Hit eight feet, it is difficult to find a zhang, this is the number of fate, and I can't envy it. Could it be that Erlang is also envious, jealous and hateful? It's good to be envious, if you are too persistent, it's not good to toss and turn and can't sleep at night. ”

"Erlang's words are wrong, you can't expect pies to fall from the sky after all, right? People, I still have to fight, maybe tomorrow I will find a character that is not inferior to this Xiao beauty? ”

"Haha, as the saying goes, sometimes there must be in life, and there is no time in life to force it, just follow the fate, don't drill the tip of the horns."

……

Both of them are the second in the family, and they are both called Erlang.

Talking and laughing, the wind and the moon, but he talks about beauties, but in fact, he knows in his heart that what the other party is talking about is not a beauty...... One is jealous of the other party's good luck, and the other is sarcastic that the other party is too utilitarian.

The expression on the face of the eldest grandson was slightly stiff, and after a while, he sighed faintly and said: "The road ahead is thorny, if you don't fight, how can you overcome the thorns and get a glimpse of the avenue?" You and I have different identities and different positions, and you may not be able to understand my state of mind. ”

Fang Jun was silent.

He admits that Changsun Jian has a point, no one is a sage, and he cannot criticize others for their chosen path.

But the truth comes down to it, once something cracks, it's hard to get back to the way it was, and that's true of mirrors, and it's also true of friendship.

He arched his hand and said indifferently: "Thank you Erlang for coming to congratulate, go and sit inside, the younger brother still wants to entertain distinguished guests, forgive me." ”

The eldest grandson's eyes were deep, he took a breath, and said with a smile: "Be polite, Erlang is busy himself, but he takes care of the foolish brother." ”

After that, he glanced at Fang Jun deeply, turned around and walked into the main hall.

Fang Jun looked up at the sky that had been dyed by the sunset, but his mood was clouded. He has never been the kind of character who will do anything to achieve his goals, he has been prosperous all the way in the officialdom, he has never taken anything seriously, everything can be said to be natural.

is promoted, there may not be too many surprises; was punished and demoted, and he never lamented because of this.

There are too many choices in life, and there is much more space than family and officialdom, so why bother to work hard here?

Looking back, looking through the open main door, I saw that the eldest grandson had already walked into the hall with steady steps, sitting in the middle of a group of bigwigs, as the next generation of the head of the eldest grandson family, with a modest smile on his face, participating in the topic that I don't know.

It looks like a fish in water, and it gets what it wants......

"Tsk, look at that dog-like person, do you really think of yourself as the head of the eldest grandson's family? That fake smile, phew! ”

I don't know when, Li Siwen, Cheng Chubi, and Qu Tuquan all came behind him, looked at the eldest grandson who was talking and laughing in the lobby, and expressed their contempt.

Although some of Changsun Lian's practices have not been put on the table, many of them are small actions, and these people are bright in their hearts.

No matter how many of them are the children of a gentleman's family, few of them are really stupid in terms of scheming......

Fang Jun smiled, raised his eyebrows, and said, "What do you care about others?" People have their own aspirations, since some people's eyes are shackled by the one-third of an acre of land at home, and they can't raise their heads to look at the sky, the sea, the sun, the moon and the stars, as friends, blessings are good, how can they impose their will on others? Don't linger here, hurry up and greet the guests, a certain is still waiting for the candles in the cave room! ”

“！ I said no, but my heart was still so dirty? Shameless! ”

originally had an expression of reluctance to take a concubine, who was it for?

Several people invariably sent the middle finger.
