Chapter 535, ashamed
Because Zhu Xu announced Zeng Rong and Zhu Heng's family affairs in public in the court, Zeng Rong moved out of the palace early the next morning and took Ah Chun home to prepare for marriage, and at the same time avoided those disturbances in the palace.
When I returned home, I just in time for the family to go for Ouyang Siyang, even Zeng Guixiang came back from the academy, and Zeng Hua also specially took leave today and did not go to Xu's house, and the family prepared a table of wine lively, but it happened that Zeng Rong caught up.
"It's really early to come than to be lucky, congratulations to the second brother, just right, Your Royal Highness has a congratulatory gift for me to pass on to you." After Zeng Rong finished speaking, he took out a house deed from his purse.
The name of Zhu Heng was written on the deed, so Ouyang Si did not suspect anything else, but this congratulatory gift still scared him.
Can the house given by the prince be a small house, can it be cheap?
He has been in Beijing for more than half a year, and he has a general understanding of the housing prices in the capital, so he thinks that this little thing he has done for Zhu Heng is not enough to accept this generous gift.
Not to mention, during his treatment of Zhu Heng, Zhu Heng also talked about the government and the political affairs of the DPRK and China for him, otherwise, his strategy may not be able to enter the eyes of the examiners.
To put it bluntly, he, the Tanhualang, actually borrowed Zhu Heng's light, but this light is not the light of the topic.
"No, I didn't do anything, this gift is too heavy, please forgive me for not accepting it." Ouyang Si waved his hand busily.
"Second brother, you tell him this. But let me remind you, he is a prince, and what he says must not be recycled, you, just take this gift in a down-to-earth manner, and marry a second sister-in-law for us as soon as possible, isn't it better than anything else? Besides, what do you mean by heavy? No matter how heavy this house is, can it live a life? Zeng Rong sent the deed to Ouyang Si again.
"That's it, second brother? The thing was sent by His Royal Highness II? Don't you push around? He is the prince, do you dare not listen to him? Zeng Fuxiang took the deed and stuffed it into Ouyang Si's hand.
"Don't, really don't? Or do you move in on your own? Could it be that you're planning to leave here? After Ouyang Si finished speaking, he glanced around.
"Why not, the world knows that I am from the country? If it weren't for the Second Highness's action? I'm afraid I can't afford this house? Why bother to leave them a handle for a moment of vanity. But second brother, you are different from us? Are you going to go on a career in the future? My eldest brother is just a small business? If you really give them that big and a house you can't afford to raise. ”
"That is, if one day I also pass the Juzi or Gongshi examination, my brother-in-law will definitely give us a big house." Zeng Guixiang grinned.
When he came back from the academy yesterday and learned that his sister was going to marry Zhu Heng, he was so excited that he hardly slept all night? As long as I think about it, the corners of my mouth can't close.
"What good things do you think? Forget what we said when we entered Beijing? To feed yourself with your own hands? Can't we help Ah Rong? Don't pull Ah Rong back. Zeng Fuxiang gave it to this younger brother.
When I came back yesterday, this younger brother was thinking about what benefits he could get through this family business, and he taught him a lesson, but he didn't expect to give up.
"Got it, got it? Don't worry, big brother, I won't talk about it, do you have to rely on yourself to gain fame? Zeng Guixiang muttered.
Zeng Rong knew that this was not the time to train people, and she also heard that Zeng Guixiang had passed the county examination and was going to take the government examination in the near future, so she helped to divert the conversation and turned out a small box from the package, which was a neat row of silver ingots, five taels and one, a total of twenty, "Second brother, this is my own congratulatory gift to you, you return to your hometown this time, I guess you also need to spend." ”
This is a real return to his hometown, more than ten years of hard study, waiting for this day, therefore, Ouyang Si's trip back to his hometown must have cost a lot.
In addition, his mother is still waiting for him to meet him at his hometown.
Originally, after the Lantern Festival, Zeng Rong wanted to find someone to pick up his mother, but Ouyang Si hesitated and refused, what he was waiting for was this day, he went back in style, picked up his mother in style, and let his mother vomit the turbidity of more than ten years.
Therefore, Zeng Rong prepared a hundred taels of silver for him, for fear that he would be too shy to open his mouth.
"You, you ... Ouyang Si was a little choked up.
It turned out that before Zeng Rong entered the door, Zeng Fuxiang also gave him sixty taels of coils, saying that he had saved money from doing business these days, and Chen gave him two new clothes, and even Zeng Hua made two new pairs of shoes and socks for him.
Speaking of which, he also had a bit of atonement for saving Zeng Rong back then, but he didn't expect that three years later, the Zeng family gave him such a rich return, he was a little ashamed of this return, afraid that he would not be able to bear it.
Ouyang Si cried, Zeng Hua couldn't stand it, she knew that the eldest sister was preparing a marriage room for Ouyang Si, and Ouyang Si went back to his hometown to pick up his mother this time, but she was afraid that the first thing to solve was his family matter.
Also, Zeng Rong heard about it yesterday in Xu's house, Ouyang Si is exploring flowers, and several families in the capital have fallen in love with him, if it weren't for the saint asking him if he could marry at the court meeting yesterday, I am afraid that someone would ask Lord Xu for marriage yesterday.
She has been thinking about the people of two lifetimes in her heart, and she is going to marry someone else after all.
"Little sister, it's a happy event for the second brother to return to his hometown, why are you crying?" Seeing that Zeng Hua was also crying, Chen was very puzzled, and persuaded with a smile.
"Doesn't my little sister want to go back to her hometown too?" Zeng Fuxiang asked.
Seriously, if it weren't for Zeng Rong's family affairs approaching, he would also want to follow Ouyang Si back to his hometown.
said that he didn't care about those people in his hometown, but how could he really lose it? That's his father, the father who gave birth to him and raised him, and those two younger brothers, who are also his half-relatives, how can they really leave it alone?
Therefore, this time Ouyang Si returned to his hometown, he asked Ouyang Si to bring back some tuyi from the capital, as well as the clothes and ten taels of silver prepared for Zeng Chengchun, not that he was reluctant to give more, but he was afraid that he would not be able to spend it on Zeng Chengchun if he gave too much, and finally cheapened the stepmother.
"I don't want to go back to my hometown, I'm still waiting to marry my eldest sister." Zeng Hua wiped his tears and said.
"Oh, it turns out that you are not crying for the second brother, but for the eldest sister." Chen was relieved.
"What a stupid girl, your eldest sister can move out of the palace after getting married, you can go to see her at any time then, it's much more convenient than now." Ouyang Si patted Zeng Hua's head and said comfortingly.
"Oh, really?" Zeng Fuxiang and Chen asked at the same time.
These words reminded Zeng Rong that she also knew that the prince needed to move out of the palace when he became a relative, but so far, she had never heard that the emperor had ordered someone to build a mansion, nor had she repaired any mansion, and now it was less than two months before the day of marriage, and it was obviously too late to build a new mansion, most of which was to send them to repair the old mansion.
But which old mansion will it be?
