Gongxian has been reprimanded one after another today. Feeling extremely aggrieved, when she heard Miss Jing drinking, she reluctantly walked out of the house to welcome Sun Dan in. As he walked, he rolled his eyes at Sun Dan.

In fact, among the people in the Sun Mansion, she still knows Sun Dan very well. It's amazing to know this man. Competent. Rich. There are also forces. It's a pity that he looks too ordinary, and he doesn't like girls. Besides, Sun Dan originally had a lady, and he hooked Sun Jia to run towards him all day long. Isn't this a bad Miss Jiajia Festival?

Did he want Miss Jiajia to become an old girl?

Sun Dan naturally doesn't care about a little girl's thoughts, he has opened his eyes now and has been studying for a long time. There is a majestic aura in the chest. Now when I think back to the unhappiness between me and Aunt Jing, I just feel bored and not very interesting. The unhappiness of the past has passed away like the wind, leaving no trace.

When he entered the house, he nodded slightly to Aunt Jing: "Happy New Year, Auntie." Then he asked Zhi Niang: "Is the lady still used to sitting here?" Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is coming soon, you still have to meet Sun, a few ladies of the family, let's go over together. ”

Before Zhiniang could speak, Aunt Jing also stepped forward first, stretched out her hand and patted the snowflakes on Sun Dan's body, and said with a smile: "Brother Dan." You haven't been home since you came to the capital. You and my Jiajia are cousins, how can we say that we are also blood relatives, and relatives need to move around more to be warm. The snow was falling again, and it was very cold. There is still an hour before the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner and the ladies of the various rooms, and if there is no place to go, drink a cup of hot tea with me. ”

Sun Dan was a little impatient in his heart, and he didn't know why Aunt Jing was so enthusiastic about him. He glanced at Sun Jia. His brows furrowed slightly: "No." I also have to take Zhiniang to Mrs. Hong's place, and take a look at Sun Hao by the way. ”

Sun Jia had a helpless expression on her face.

"Ouch, since you walked into my yard. How do you say that you just go? Moreover, today is the first time your lady has come to me, and the more the old body looks at Zhi Niang, the more happy she is in her heart. Brother Tan, you are really blessed to marry such a hardworking and amiable lady. I was about to talk to the lady again, and I wasn't happy if you took her away. ”

I heard Aunt Jing praise her wife. Sun Dan was also a little happy in his heart, and smiled: "It's okay." Anyway, I can see Mrs. Hong at the next Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and I am not in a hurry at this time. And it's okay to sit at my aunt's place. ”

Sun Jia hurriedly washed a cup and poured Sun Dan a cup of hot tea.

Before Sun Dan could pick up the teacup, Aunt Jing sat next to Sun Dan and suddenly smiled flatteringly: "Brother Tan." I heard that you recently gave birth and went to market. got a great fortune. The two younger brothers who are old in Shandong are also unsuccessful and want to enter Beijing to join their relatives. I thought about it for a long time, and the two old men in the house were busy with affairs, so it was not easy to disturb them. Just ask to come to Brother Tan and see if you can find a way to live for them. ”

Sun Dan was shocked, not many people in the court knew about his daily meeting with Emperor Zhengde, and only a few people knew the details of Guo Xun, Zhu Huan and Bi Yun. His dealings with Zhengde are only private in nature, and neither he nor Zhengde wants anyone else to know. The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, really speaking. Sun Dan didn't think about getting any benefits from the emperor, and entering the imperial examination was the journey. If you really go through the relationship with the emperor, maybe you can be a small official. It's a pity that if you don't follow the right path, your future achievements will be very limited, and you will be called "Shechen" by the people in Shilin, and you won't have a bad reputation.

Now, Aunt Jing suddenly mentioned in front of her that she wanted to find a way for her two younger brothers, and according to her presence in several key departments, she might really be able to think of a way for them. Besides, the two brothers Jingxiang and Jingji had contact with him in Shandong, although these two people were unbearable, they were prodigals and gangsters in the underworld. But Sun Dan looked at Sun Jia's face and didn't have any ill feelings towards these two.

It's just that Aunt Jing suddenly mentioned this in front of her, but Sun Dan was a little surprised, and said secretly: "Could it be that the special relationship between Emperor Zhengde and himself is already known to everyone?" ”

His face sank: "I don't understand what my aunt said, you said that I was rich." But Sun Dan knows in my own heart that we are just a small showman, honestly studying and working in the country, what wealth can we have? Speaking of this, he glanced at Sun Jia suspiciously.

"Ouch, Brother Tan, you are humble. Who doesn't know that you're now rich. I saw all the money tickets on Zhiniang's body just now, more than 10,000 taels. Your net worth, even in the capital, can be regarded as a middle-class family. "Aunt Jing mentioned the silver. The eyes lit up.

Sun Jia couldn't help it, seeing that Sun Dan didn't understand. I had to tell Sun Dan about what happened just now.

Sun Dan understood what was going on, and knew that Aunt Jing didn't know her relationship with the emperor, so she quietly breathed a sigh of relief. I thought that Aunt Jing actually asked Zhiniang to wash her clothes on a cold day. His eyes turned cold: "I see." I'm sorry. I can't help much with Jingji Jingxiang's affairs. ”

, is crying than the north

After speaking, he kept his face calm and did not speak.

Zhiniang was a little embarrassed and said, "Sun Lang." I'm an idle man, and I have to wash the clothes myself. ”

Sun Dan snorted: "After the New Year, I'll help you buy a dozen rough maids, so as not to be looked down upon." ”

"No, I'm busy. Besides, there is only a lot of space in the house, and more than a dozen people have been added at once, which is very crowded. ”

Sun said lightly: "Then buy a bigger house, you must not be wronged at all." ”

Somehow, seeing Sun Dan's cold expression, Aunt Jing was suddenly a little scared in her heart, and she didn't dare to say anything.

Sister and Sun Dan reunited in the past, so that everyone in the house would not be on pins and needles.

Sun Dan stood up. Say, "Go ahead." ”

Jing Yanniang saw the opportunity quickly and took Zhi Niang's hand. Said affectionately: "Zhiniang, let's go together." Let me tell you, there are big rules in this Hou Mansion. You are also a person with status now, and in the future, Brother Dan will be the master, and you will be a lady, so you have to take a look at how people like Sun Fu live on weekdays. ”

Zhiniang is a kind person, so she nodded hurriedly: "Okay, I'll go with my aunt." ”

When I walked out of the door, the snow was heavier again, there was no wind, and the snowflakes like catkins were falling one after another, which looked very beautiful.

It's already getting dark. The Chinese New Year's Eve in the capital was lively, and a few firecrackers rang out from time to time. There were also faint clusters of ceremonial flowers blooming in the air.

Generally speaking, in a mansion like the Marquis Mansion of Huichang, everyone's food, clothing, housing and transportation are huge, such as eating. Depending on the identity of each person. There are also different snail spells to brush six weekdays, and the food and drink in each room are prepared by the room and sent to the yard.

Today, because it is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, I have a reunion dinner. The masters and young masters and ladies of each room have to eat together, including the children and relatives of the side relatives have to come over to join in the fun. Among them, there are also the stewards of the manors and the shopkeepers of various shops, and these people rushed to the capital ten days in advance, first, to pay the account. The second is to eat this New Year's meal.

Sun Dan also knew that there were many people in the Hou Mansion of Huichang, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

Not only are there three tables in the lobby. The two rooms were also full of tables, and together there were at least a hundred people. There was a lot of talk and laughter everywhere, and it was a headache.

Compare. , Wanbi North

Before he could find a place, Sun Henian, the second master of the Sun family, came over with a hug, and when he saw Sun Dan, he nodded and nodded: "Enter the lobby, you are also famous, and it is not appropriate to go to the ear room." ”

After all, he was the patriarch, and Sun Dan still maintained a minimum of politeness and nodded.

By the way, Sun Henian stood still and said: "How is your homework recently, Guozijian has become like that now, or you go to the academy in Pingqiuli to take up a teaching position, and you will have a few pieces of silver." Moreover, Pingqiuli is also a famous talent. You can also talk to him more often. Mao Xiang will also go to the academy to teach from time to time, and if you fall into his eyes, it will also be an opportunity. Today's calligraphy contest is nothing more than a play among literati. It can't be true. The article is serious. Don't be arrogant when you win the jackpot, after all. It's the real kung fu on the exam. ”

"Yes." Sun Dan replied casually; walked towards the lobby with Sun Henian. Pingqiuli himself will not go there, if he goes, he will be in the mouth of a sheep, everyone has already talked about it, but I am afraid that that guy has regarded himself as a political enemy and wants to get rid of it quickly.

After teaching Sun Dan a few more words, Sun Henian sat down at the table in the middle of the hall, and ordered someone to take Sun Dan to the table next to him to sit down.

There are three tables in the lobby, and the people who can sit are either the inner relatives of the Sun Mansion or the core children.

The table where Sun Henian was sitting was located in the center, surrounded by Sun Songnian, Sun Yue, Sun Hao, Sun Hang and others. The table next to it is the seat of the ladies, and the ladies and ladies of the third room are arranged.

As for the table where Sun Dan was sitting, several children of the Sun family were arranged, who were either famous or promising scholars.

Because the banquet had not yet officially opened, everyone sat together and talked loudly. Sun Dan was separated from Zhiniang just now, he was worried in his heart, and he had no intention of talking, he only looked around with his eyes, but he couldn't see anyone.

However, when she thought that she was with Sun Jia, there was nothing to worry about, so she calmed down and sat on the chair to nourish her energy.

He wanted to be quiet, but the voice next to him became louder, and the sound was like in his ears, which made him feel a little angry. I had no choice but to give up. Just listen to what they have to say.

When I heard this, I sighed in my heart: "These guys are really"

It turned out that when the children of the Sun family were in Shandong before, they were blocked by local information. People are also simple. When the grandson's family moved to the capital. I want them to see their horizons, and they will have a big exhibition in the future. I didn't expect it. As soon as these people arrived in the capital, they were blinded by materialistic desires after falling into the world of red dust. Not to mention that his studies were wasted, he learned a lot of new things about cockfighting and lackeys.

Today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, and Sun Henian is also led by his children. When these people saw that no one was in charge, they began to talk about the beautiful maids sold in the capital, and the Zhanjia class released a new song. and lost two taels of silver,

Sun Dan couldn't help but shake his head.

I am annoyed to hear it. I saw a group of daughters of the Sun Mansion sitting at the table. Ji Niang and Aunt Jing talked and laughed together, but they also got along well. Sun Dan knew that Zhi Niang had a gentle personality and was also kind, and Aunt Jing treated her like that just now. But I only heard two good words from someone. And his heart softened. This woman. It's really speechless.

Next, it is time to defeat the ancestors, there is no way, Sun Dan can only kowtow a few times to the ancestors of the Sun family with everyone.

Then Sun Songnian, the titular patriarch, rewarded each family and each room, and even Sun Dan got a red envelope of a penny of silver.

Pinching the small money ticket in his hand, Sun Dan couldn't cry or laugh. This thing was originally made up by him, if he really wanted to make money in the market. As soon as the printing press is turned on, you can print as much as you want.

Probably because of Sun Hao's relationship, Sun Songnian had a good attitude towards Sun Dan, and even encouraged Sun Dan a few words.

Sun Song is white and fat, and he is a group of harmony, I really don't know how he gave birth to such a stupid overlord as Sun Hao.

Sun Dan didn't pay attention to this red envelope; But Zhi Niang looked very happy. It was also the first time she had such a lively New Year with so many people, and everything seemed so fresh.

Zhi Niang was happy, and Sun Dan Xinfeng was also very happy.

After sacrificing to the ancestors, I received a New Year's red envelope. It's time for the New Year's dinner.

However, the next scene made Sun Dan's chest rise with resentment.

It turned out that Sun Dan was the son of the Sun family. Ding, and he is famous. Naturally, there is a seat. But because Zhiniang is the daughter-in-law of the family, as a female dependent, and has no status, she stands beside Mrs. Sanfang to wait. Even Aunt Jing didn't have a seat, and served tea and water to everyone with a flattering face.

Sun Dan brought Zhiniang over to let her be lively with everyone, but not to bring her over to serve these ladies and ladies. First of all, Aunt Zhan didn't open her eyes, and took Zhiniang as an employer. Letting her wash her clothes on a cold day has already made Sun Dan extremely annoyed. Fortunately, on Sun Jia's face, coupled with Aunt Jing's next attitude, she made a 365-degree turn, and a lot of flattery, so that Sun Dan suppressed the anger in her heart.

But now seeing such a neat situation, Sun Dan was unconsciously furious. Secretly said: "I knew it was like this. I didn't bring Zhiniang over, and the two of us drank two glasses of rice wine at home, watched the fireworks in the city, and were at ease. It's also like being hit by someone's gas here. ”

He thought about it for a moment and decided to find an opportunity to say goodbye.

At this time, a little girl came over with a pot of hot rice wine. She didn't know Zhi Niang, and when she saw that she was dressed plainly, she was standing at the table again. Thinking that it was a distant relative in the family, the people in the house came to ask the wives to serve the marquis, so he stuffed the wine jug in the hand of Wangzhi Niang: "Don't stand here like a wooden man, let's wait for people." They all have eyesight, and they have to find their own work if they don't have a job. Poke it out. Move. No matter where you go, you've already been beaten out. ”

Sun Dan's face changed greatly, and he was about to stand up and do it.

Aunt Jing saw that the situation was not good, and hummed to please Sun Dan. In order to find a way for his two younger brothers, he hurriedly stretched out his hand: "Let me serve the ladies." ”

Zhi Niang didn't care. active

These words alarmed several ladies present, and Mrs. Hong was kind and glanced at Zhiniang. I saw that this little daughter-in-law had red lips and white teeth, and had a kind temperament. I liked it a little in my heart, and took the flask: "You're welcome, I'll pour it myself." By the way, what's your name and which one is it? ”

Sun Jia didn't expect Sun Dan's wife to be used by everyone, and she was ashamed in her heart, so she kept her head down and didn't speak. Hearing Mrs. Hong ask, she hurriedly said, "It's Sun Dan's family." ”

"Hehe, it turned out to be Brother Tan'er's family. Sure enough, it's good. Mrs. Hong was amazed, and hurriedly took her hand and looked up and down. shouted: "Good water spirit woman, Sun Dan's eyesight is good, sit down, sit down." "I'm going to pull Zhiniang to take a seat.

Zhiniang was a little embarrassed: "I'll still stand." ”

"Whatever you say, it's all your own people, and you share each other." Mrs. Hong was so happy that her eyebrows were raised, and she couldn't stop praising it, saying that Sun Dan was so blessed that she married such a good lady who was hurt by people, and she was a little embarrassed to praise Zhiniang.

Sun Dan saw Mrs. Hong pull Zhiniang into the seat, and a wave of anger in his heart was suppressed.

But at this time, Mrs. Liu, who had not spoken, suddenly stretched out a finger and pointed to the wine jug on the table and said to Zhi Niang, "Sun Dan's family." Fill me with wine. ”

"Okay, I'll do it." Zhiniang didn't know about the grievances between Mrs. Liu and her husband, and broke free from Mrs. Hong's hands, so she was going to pour wine for Mrs. Liu.

The smile on Mrs. Hong's face froze, and she said to Mrs. Liu: "Sister, Sun Dan's family is not an outsider. My sister wants to drink. I'll pour it for you. ”

Mrs. Liu shook her head: "Sister, although Sun Dan is not an outsider, he is orderly in his old and young, and there is a difference between respect and inferiority." You can't mess with the rules. ”

Mrs. Hong's hand stopped in mid-air, she was a kind person, and she didn't want to argue with Mrs. Liu during the New Year, so she only sighed: "This is not good, they are all a family." ”

Mrs. Liu didn't say much, only pointed to the wine jug: "Sun Dan's family, pour the bar, the ladies and ladies in the rooms here are all your masters." Today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, and it is reasonable that you should toast everyone. ”

The room suddenly fell silent, and now it was not right, and everyone's eyes fell on Zhi Niang.

These people have complex eyes and have their own thoughts. Today, Sun Dan is in the limelight, there are those who are envious, and there are those who are jealous. Now seeing Sun Dan's lady angry, many people feel happy in their hearts. Only Mrs. Hong, Sun Jia and a few others couldn't bear it.

Sun Henian and Sun Songnian didn't care about the things in the house, so they turned a deaf ear.

Zhi Niang felt that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the room, and she was still a little confused, and she didn't understand what was going on.

Sun Jia finally couldn't help it, and stood up with a loud voice: "Isn't it just drinking, it's nothing, I'll pour it." Mrs. Liu. I'm a junior, so it's not too much to toast you. ”

Sun Dan was already so angry that his face turned pale, and he slowly stood up. was about to turn around with Zhi Niang.

Suddenly, a servant ran into the lobby with a pale face. His face was full of fear: "Know" the eldest master, the second old man, "There are two adults in the Beiya outside, and no one wants to report it." I went straight in, saying that I was looking for some kind of light master

Sun Henian was shocked in his heart, he didn't have much to do with the people of Jinyiwei. Chinese New Year's Eve. These two people came running over and doing something. Could it be?"

Hearing that there was a brocade guard who broke in, the female dependents who were still in a mess just now all changed color. The daughters of large families also have more knowledge than the daughters-in-law of small families, so they naturally know how powerful Beiya is. Even Mrs. Liu, who was still arrogant and domineering, was a little pale.

"What a light master, my grandson family doesn't have a light master!" Sun Henian took a breath, calmed the churning blood in his chest and scolded; He asked again: "Who is from the North Yamen, and is it the grade?" ”

"What are you asking for, my name is Qin Guan. Jinyi Weibei Town, Fusi 100 households. ”

"My name is Beiyue. Jinyi Weibei Town, Fusi 100 households. ”

Two eerie voices came. Everyone looked up, but saw two men with their hands behind their backs walking in at the door of the lobby. The two of them were dressed in brocade robes. With a bend on his waist, his expression was cold. Brother Sun Henian is just a five-grade official, and he doesn't even have the qualifications of the early dynasty. These two brocade guards got Zhu Huan's order again, and in the eyes of the two of them, they didn't get anything at all, and they took it. Therefore. They were impatient to report when they entered the house just now. Straight in.

These two hundred families are no strangers. It was in Beizhen Fusi Prison, when Feng Zhen and the Jinyi guards were fighting, and the two of them also had a fight with Feng Zhen.

The man who called himself Qin Guan was slender among the two. has a good leg method, and is the descendant of the northern school of elastic legs.

As for the other stout one named Han Yue. It's the man who makes the double sword. These two are the thirteenth Taibao of Zhenzhen Fusi, and they are also Zhu Huan's cronies.

Sun Dan knew that these two people were outstanding in martial arts, but he didn't want to be a hundred Jinyi Guards, and their grade was not low.

Brother Sun Henian has been rolling in officialdom all his life, how could he not have heard the names of these two people. The two brothers glanced at each other, stood up at the same time, and arched their hands: "Sun Henian and Sun Songnian have seen two adults, and they don't know whether the two came to my Sun Mansion for public or private purposes. I will Changhou Mansion is in the reunion year. There are female dependents present, and if you neglect it, please atone for your sins. ”

"Hehe, if it's for personal gain, won't Lord Sun treat my two brothers to me?" Qin Guan laughed, and turned against Sun Henian's army.

Sun Henian was annoyed in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "If the two adults come to me for business, Zi Cai is on a bad business." If it's private, sit down and warm up with a drink. ”

Another brocade guard hundred households and half a moon have a good temper. smiled and joked, "Don't be annoyed, Lord Sun. The Chinese New Year is naturally a group of harmony. Everyone's wealth. Hehe, we came here to receive the order of Commander Zhu's envoy and come to the door to pay New Year's greetings. How. Lord Sun won't even give us a seat? ”

When everyone heard that they were not looking for trouble, they were relieved. Some people even secretly said: I will still have a big face in the Changhou Sun family, and even the people from Beiya came to visit the New Year.

Sun Henian heard him say that he was sent by Zhu Huan. He was even more suspicious in his heart, and turned his head and ordered his subordinates: "Arrange seats for the two adults." ”

"What are you sitting on?" Qin Guan snorted: "It's important to get down to business, where do we have time to delay." After saying that, he clapped his hands.

When everyone heard his unkind tone, their hearts tightened again.

At this time, a brocade guard pawn walked in outside, holding a brocade box in his hand.

Qin Fu walked to Sun Danquzhou and said respectfully: "Happy New Year, Master Tan, Commander Zhu asked his brother to come over and say hello to you." ”
