Inside the door, Dajiang Hutong, Dong House.

Dong Suxin is now waiting to be married here, and his life is very monotonous, either doing needlework or gossiping with his sister-in-law and sisters every day. No, there is an embroidered screen on the kang, and on it is a half-embroidered picture of rich flowers.

Su Xin pinched the bamboo needle, looked at the embroidery screen in a daze, and didn't notice that someone was watching at the door for a long time.

Su Xin's cousin-in-law, that is, her cousin Shang, was also a little unbearable when she saw her appearance, and said with a smile: "I heard that the girl is busy in the morning, so she should also rest." ”

When Su Xin heard this, he found that someone had come in, so he hurriedly stood up and said, "Sister-in-law." ”

Shang personally took a blue and white bowl from the maid behind him, put it on the kang table, and said, "This is a freshly boiled rock sugar bird's nest, the girl should eat it while it's hot." It is said that this thing is nourishing, and it is always good to eat more. ”

This hospitality made Dong Suxin a little embarrassed, and after a while, he said, "Sister-in-law, Ming'er should not stay up." There are many elders in the family, and my sister is in good health, how can I use this every day? Let's leave it to the elders. ”

Shang Shi put down the bowl, sat down on the side of the kang, took Su Xin's hand, and said with a smile: "There are many precious things, and it's not that you can't afford to eat them." Not to mention one cup, even if it is ten cups a day, our family can afford it. Speaking of this, he patted her hand and said, "Girl, don't worry, it was the old lady who explained it, and I want to give you a good life and nourishment before you leave the pavilion." Even if others are greedy, they will not find fault. Because I was afraid that the girl would be serious, I didn't tell you this. ()”

When Dong Suxin heard this, his eyes were already red, and he bowed his head and said nothing.

Speaking of the family affair with the Cao family, the Shang family was unhappy. It is true that the new aunt is a child of the Cao family, but he is in the next room, and the age difference is too much, and he has no fame.

In addition to Cao, although there is a son in the Cao family's room, he is still in infancy. So I can only settle for the next best thing and marry to the second room.

In fact, even if the Dong family wants to marry the Cao family, it should not be Su Xin. In these years, there are also marriages between women and men, but there are very few marriages when they are five years older. Su Xin has several cousins, all of whom are in their cardamom years, and they are only the same age as Cao.

However, Dong Dianbang remembered that his granddaughter had been on an errand in the palace, and she was also compatible with Li's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, so he still set the eldest granddaughter.

Looking at the half-embroidered embroidered screen, Shang sighed in his heart, and still said with a smile on his face: "I haven't told my sister yet, the second uncle is here, and now he is eating tea with the old lady in the front hall." In a while, maybe I'll see my sister too. ”

The second uncle in her mouth is Shang Zhishun in Guangchu Shilang.

Hearing this, Su Xin raised his head and said, "Second uncle is here?" ”

Shang nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, I heard that the old lady asked the tent to pass, and I estimated that it was the dowry of the agreed girl." Although the second room of the Cao family is mediocre, the grandmothers who enter the door in front of them are all girls from large families, and they have abundant makeup. Although we are ordinary people, we can't compare to them, and it's not good to be too shabby. Otherwise, it will not be easy to get along with each other in the future. ”

Hearing this, it was not Dong Suxin's questioning, so he could only listen silently......

Front yard, living room.

Shang Zhishun sat in a chair, holding a yellowed account book in his hand and flipping through it. After reading it, he put the accounts on the table, looked up and said to Dong Dianbang, who was sitting opposite: "My lord, when my sister got married in the past, although my brother and younger generations planned with all their hearts, they were mostly old things. It was okay back then, but now some of them are too old to be used. ”

Dong Dianbang nodded and said: "The old man also thinks like this, and in the past half a year, he has also made people buy some things, the second master of the in-laws will take a look, is there anything that needs to be added or subtracted?" As he spoke, he took out a paper fold from his sleeve and handed it to Shang Zhishun.

Shang Zhishun took it in his hand and looked at it, from furniture and furnishings, to silk and satin, to clothes for the four seasons, to jewelry.

Shang Zhishun coughed and said, "In the past two years, the Fucha family married with the Lang Mansion, and the younger generation saw it in person, and it was decent. The meaning of the brother is that those of us who are uncles should also add some dowry for our niece, so as to save her from going to her in-law's house. As he spoke, he took out two pieces of paper from his sleeve and sent them to Dong Dianbang.

It turned out to be two house deeds, one was a three-entry house, and the other was a shop on the side of Longfu Temple. This house is Xicheng, two streets away from Cao's house.

Dong Dianbang had nothing on his face, but he was a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Although it is a good gift, and the granddaughter has two more properties as a dowry, it is also decent, but Cao is a young son, and there is a brother on him, and he will be designated to divide the family in the future. () At that time, if you go to live in the property where you are married, then is this uncle the uncle of the Dong family or the uncle of the Shang family?

The Shang family didn't have a lot of silver, but they were decent.

"It's really annoying that the two masters of the in-laws are bothered, and the old decay makes people call Su Xin out and ask her to say hello to the second master of the in-laws." Dong Dianbang showed a little gratitude and said.

Shang Zhishun waved his hand and said, "There are still some mundane affairs today, and I have to take a break to do it, and I will disappear today." Uchiko is picking up her niece to go back to live for a few days in the past two days, and it's good to be reunited, so see you then. As he spoke, he got up and took his leave.

Dong Dianbang personally sent it outside the door, and when he saw Shang Zhishun getting on the horse and leaving, he put away his smiling face.

When he returned to the hall, he took the two title deeds and looked at them for a long time, and called the servant to call the housekeeper and the tent.

"There is a house in Xicheng, three into the land, and now the third master lives there." The housekeeper leaned over and replied: "It's next to Xizhimen, it's a little old, and the third master repaired it a few years ago before he moved over." ”

The Dong family has many children and grandchildren, although they have not been separated, but the house here cannot be opened, and the two concubines in Xing 3 and Xing 5 have moved to live outside.

"It's too far." Dong Dianbang shook his head and instructed the housekeeper: "Let someone go out and inquire if there is any property for sale near the Cao family, and the house in Sanjin." It's really not, and it's good to go into the four. ()”

The housekeeper leaned over to answer, and Dong Dianbang said to the account room again: "How much silver is there in the treasury of the house?" Two days ago, I told you to come and pay some money, and go to the bank to exchange some gold, how is it going? ”

"Sir, there is little gold in the world nowadays. Although the official exchange ratio is still ten taels of gold to one tael of silver, it has risen to twelve taels in the black market. The small ones have already made people ask around to see if they can find a cheap place. The tent replied.

When Dong Dianbang heard this, he "hummed" in his heart.

Although I don't know what the Zongren Mansion raises for the gold, how much profit can it make? If you hoard it in your hands and put it down now, it will be a profit of one or two percent.

But just think about it, it's okay to exchange ten taels of gold in the black market, if it's really too much, can the uncle in those money banks watch? In addition, the landlords behind them may not want to find some sin and cut off this transaction......

Cao Mansion, Orchid Courtyard.

Cao Yin, Cao and his son changed into regular clothes and sat in the room gossiping. Li sat on the edge of the kang, his eyes watching

of immortality. Changsheng is almost a year old, and he has already begun to be able to stand, but

Li was afraid that the fall would hurt his son, so he spread two layers of kang felt on the kang. Rao is like this, and her eyes are also inseparable.

Chu Yu's side poured tea for her in-laws and husband with her own hands, gave it to her, and then accompanied her mother-in-law to talk on the side.

Today is the day when the second room Cao Shuo's widow Tianhu grabbed Zhou, Tianhu grabbed the brush with one hand and the inkstone with the other. When Cao Yin saw it, he thought of his deceased nephew, and he was also embarrassed.

Heavenly protection is born on the second day of October, and immortality is on the twenty-fifth day of October.

Li Shi thought about the scene of Tianhu's arrest of Zhou Shi today, and whispered to his daughter-in-law: "Children are greedy, if Changsheng doesn't catch anything, just catch gluttony, wouldn't it be a joke?" ”

It turned out that in addition to the four treasures of the study, scriptures and small objects representing all walks of life, two plates of pastries were placed next to the children's grabbing ceremony.

Chu Yu heard her mother-in-law ask, hesitated for a moment, and said, "What did the wife say?" ”

"Do you want to let Changsheng recognize these things first, and see what is rare." Li said.

Cao Yin heard what his wife said, turned his head, and said: "Arresting Zhou is to test the school's son's ambitions in the future, if you cheat, it is not to deceive people, but to deceive yourself." I don't know my child's natural preferences, how can I teach them according to their aptitude? ”

When her husband said this, Li became more and more worried.

If the son catches rouge and needlework, won't he be regarded by Lao Tzu as not doing his job?

It's just that in front of her son and daughter-in-law, she couldn't argue with her husband, so she nodded and said softly: "What the master said is true." ”

At this time, he will see Changsheng coming over slowly, muttering in his small mouth: "Mother......"

The Li family was already stunned, and even Cao Yin and Cao looked over.

Changsheng spoke for the first time, and the Li family was overjoyed, hugged his son over, and coaxed: "Changsheng is good, call again." ()”

Changsheng stretched out his little hand to grab Li's ear pliers.

Cao Yin touched his beard and said, "The days go by so fast, it seems that he just landed yesterday, and in a blink of an eye, it is time to babble." ”

Although there are many cousins, but there is only one sibling, and Cao Ye is rare in his heart.

Although the living conditions in the high-rise families are better and not as difficult as ordinary people's homes, it is also troublesome for children to hit the ground. When you are one year old, you can count it as harder.

No matter how the Li family tried to persuade him, Changsheng just refused to shout a second time, babbling in his mouth, and he didn't know what to say. His little hand touched Li's chest, and his little head was not restless, and he drilled into Li's arms.

Seeing that Li was about to dodge, Changsheng grinned and cried.

Seeing this, Li couldn't cry or laugh, knowing that his son was hungry, he raised his head and told the maid to take Changsheng down to breastfeed.

The room was quiet, and Cao Yin asked Chu Yu: "Ming'er is the Queen Mother's Holy Birthday Festival, and the tributes are ready?" ”

Chu Yu stood up and replied: "It's all ready, in addition to a sandalwood Buddha and an ivory Guanyin, there are also two sets of middle clothes sewn by my wife herself." ”

Cao Yin nodded, looked at Li and said: "It's difficult for you to have a heart, the courtesy is light and affectionate, and the Queen Mother will like it." ”

Li said with a smile: "In the past two years, I have received too many rewards from the Queen Mother and her old man, and I am very grateful. Although according to the previous rules, the birthday gift purchased by spending a lot of money is decent, but the Queen Mother and her old man also lack that. When I met in the spring, I heard the Queen Mother say that she liked my needlework, so I did this. Although it is not as good as the land in the palace, the best materials are also selected. It is soft and obedient, and the elderly should be comfortable at home. ”

Cao was beside him, listening to his parents' answers, thinking about the Queen Mother's reward for Cao's family, and he felt a little uncertain.

Now that the father and son of the Cao family are both in Jingtang, they are already eye-catching, will the Queen Mother make a drama of "recognizing relatives"?

Thinking of this, he denied it in his heart. Regardless of whether the mother's identity is a princess or a county lord, it involves royal secrets, and with Kangxi's reputation and face-loving temperament, he will not be willing to open up a royal scandal.

After returning from Rehe, the Queen Mother has been living in Changchun Garden and has not returned to the palace. Today, the holy car has also moved to Changchun Garden.

The next day, Holy Birthday Day.

Mr. and Mrs. Cao Yin and Mr. and Mrs. Cao got up in the middle of the night, dressed up according to their grades, and wanted to go out of the city from Xizhimen at two o'clock in the morning in Chouzheng (two o'clock in the morning) and go to Changchun Garden to celebrate their birthday.

Before I know it, snow was already falling outside.

Li and Chu Yu both had their own carriages, wrapped in straight-haired cloaks, and holding a hand stove, which was also considered warm. Cao Yin's side, every time he travels at night, he also takes a car. Only Cao, is a horseback ride.

Cao Song is not on duty today, but because of the Holy Birthday Festival, he also has to go over to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday, so he came to walk with his uncle and cousin.

Cao Yin looked up at the sky and asked Cao and Cao Song to be in the same car with him.

When I was about to reach Xizhimen, I saw that half of the street was blocked in front of me, and the lights were bright, all waiting for the order of the official who went out of the city.

I waited two quarters of an hour before it was time to open the gates; After another half a cup of tea, the Cao family's carriage went out of the city gate.

Cao Song was not a quiet character, but in front of his uncle, he was a little restrained and much more honest.

Cao saw that he was depressed, and asked a few words about the guard's office. Cao Song answered them one by one, but there was silence in the carriage.

By the time we arrived outside the Spring Garden, the sky was already dark.

The prince Baylor and the ministers of civil and military affairs all went to the Arrow Hall to wait for the summons, and the foreign women were led by palace attendants to the second palace gate to wait.

Cao glanced at the sect, but still didn't see Brother Jiu. I don't know if he was really sick, or if he was so angry that he didn't come.

After waiting for half an hour, it was almost the beginning of the morning (seven o'clock in the morning), and after the whip opened the way, the holy car arrived.

Subsequently, Kangxi led the clan, hundreds of officials, guards, etc., to salute outside the Empress Dowager's palace.

For a while, the queen mother's decree was handed down, and the banquet was stopped, and the silver taels saved were donated to several royal temples and temples to make incense.

Kangxi led the hundred officials to kowtow, leaving only a few scholars to answer in front of the emperor, and the other courtiers withdrew from the garden.

Subsequently, it was the concubine Jia who took the inner wife to the Queen Mother's Palace to salute and congratulate her birthday. In the end, it was the foreign woman who was waiting outside the gate of the second palace to go to the Queen Mother's Palace.

The Queen Mother dressed up and wore auspicious clothes, but because she had been ill for a few months in the autumn, she had lost a lot, and it was not as good as the original wealth.

Looking at the graceful and luxurious harem, and then at the foreign woman kneeling on the other side, the Queen Mother's eyes swept over the crowd and fell on the Li family......
