On the afternoon of this day, Zeng Rong and his family had a lively Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together.

After the meal, Zeng Fuxiang put the two kang together, and the family sat around the kang, chatting while eating tea, and keeping the New Year, the most talked about was the small mountain village thousands of miles away, where there were their common memories and their relatives.

Zeng Fuxiang is the most uncomfortable, when it comes to emotion, he shed tears, he is the eldest son, neither took the responsibility of the eldest son to take care of his younger brothers and sisters, nor did he support the family for his father, and now he has to rely on his sister to live a life without worrying about food and clothing.

Zeng Guixiang and Ah Hua are slightly better, they also miss their father and miss that home, but they just miss it, and they don't feel much guilty. Especially Ah Hua, she was forced to jump into the lake, so her thoughts were more simple, she only missed that period of suffering, and felt sorry for the lonely, resentful and helpless self that appeared during that time, nothing more.

Zeng Rong left home at the age of six in her last life, and she only stayed in her hometown for three months in this life, and she was the most emotionless about that home, so she listened more and said less, afraid that she would reveal her stuff as soon as she opened her mouth.

Ouyang Si drank a few glasses of wine at the dinner, and his words were slightly more than usual, and he also said that the small academy, the senior monk of Qingshan Temple, and his poor widow said that it was the spring of the next year. Fortunately, Zeng Rong was not mentioned, nor Zhu Heng and the Qian family were mentioned.

The next day, the first day of the Lunar New Year, Zeng Rong was woken up by the sound of firecrackers one after another, and after getting up, the family ate a vegan breakfast according to the customs of his hometown, with only two dishes, a cabbage and a tofu.

Around the time of the touch, the four brothers and sisters of the Zeng family entered the Qian Mansion with Ouyang Si, and after the salute was over, Mrs. Qian took Zeng Rong to the backyard alone to drink tea.

Between the words? Mrs. Qian talked about Qian Qian's family affairs, saying that she originally fell in love with a young boy in her hometown, and her family background, age, and talent all matched? The other party is fifteen years old? In the old year, I was also going to take the exam? The two families also agreed to exchange Geng Ti as soon as the autumn season was over.

But who knew that just before the exam, the young man suddenly fell ill, and the family went to the temple to ask? Say it's a disagreement between the two? said that Qian Qian restrained him, so this family business was yellow.

Logic? This family business is yellow, as long as it doesn't spread out, it won't affect Qianqian? But that family was delayed because of their son's autumn vacation? What more than three years to wait? Feeling a little angry? That's how some inappropriate remarks came out? It directly affects Ah Qian's reputation, and also affects the reputation of the Qian family.

In this way, Mrs. Qian hurriedly entered Beijing with Qian Qian, firstly to reunite with her husband and son, and secondly, to see if there was a suitable family in the capital.

Zeng Rong understood Mrs. Qian's hint? smiled: "Please don't be impatient?" As the old saying goes? Is it yours that can't run? It's not you, you can't force it, I believe? There will definitely be something better waiting for us in front of you. ”

After speaking, after a pause, Zeng Rong said again: "Actually, marriage is really magical, just like me, no matter how dare I think about it, I would never have imagined that one day I would marry a prince." People say that marriage is quite a door, I am a small peasant girl, poor and white, and I don't even have a penny dowry, let alone the prince, even a slightly richer family I don't dare to hope for extravagance. I think there are people like me who have trapped their feet because of these external conditions, but they have neglected their own hearts. ”

Sure enough, Mrs. Qian's eyes lit up when she heard this, so as not to be too excited and leak her thoughts, she picked up the teacup and took two sips, and then said, "Then how did you figure it out later?" ”

"Time, His Royal Highness gave me two years to think about this problem, and in these two years, I was also ordered by the Empress Dowager to enlighten, take care of and accompany him. The two of us, but it has really become the old saying that a thousand miles of marriage is a thread, I can never imagine that I will go all the way to Beijing, enter Beijing for just half a year and enter the palace, enter the palace for just half a year and then enter the inner chamberlain as a female official, all of this seems to be paving the way for today, madam, you say, this marriage is magical? Zeng Rong smiled after speaking, and also picked up the teacup.

"It's amazing indeed. Alas, I'm too anxious, thinking that the child will be sixteen years old this year, and when I see you, I can't help but feel a little emotional. Mrs. Qian looked at Zeng Rong and finally understood why the Queen Mother and the Emperor both fell in love with this woman.

It is indeed smart and transparent, at a young age, he knows how to restrain his edge, see through it without saying it, and will leave room for the other party, neither because of the past that is low to the dust and arrogant, nor because of the future of the future and complacency, rare, indeed rare.

Seeing that the other party was still looking at him with slightly locked eyebrows, Zeng Rong mistakenly thought that the other party still had some difficulties, and sighed slightly, and said: "Please relax Mrs., it's only the first day of the Lunar New Year, and it's still early before the end of the year." But speaking of which, I have something to ask for, reasoning, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, I shouldn't open this mouth, but tomorrow afternoon I should enter the palace, come out again, I'm afraid it will be three months later, a little late. ”

What Zeng Rong wants to say is to ask the Qian family to help buy a set of two-entry houses nearby, this silver Zeng Rong plans to go out by himself, this time out of the palace, Zhu Heng gave her two thousand taels of silver tickets, of which one thousand taels was given to Zeng Rong by the Queen Mother, and Zeng Rong placed it with him.

Zhu Heng's original intention was to let her take this silver ticket to buy some land or a shop for her family, and buy some belongings by the way, after all, Zeng Rong was going to leave from this mother's house when he left the pavilion.

Zeng Rong originally didn't want this silver ticket, but Zhu Heng said a word, they are Zeng Rong's family and his family, he doesn't want his family to be looked down upon because of poverty, for him, this bit of silver is not a matter at all, not to mention, there are 1,000 taels of silver in it that are Zeng Rong's own.

Zeng Rong originally wanted to do the same, but after knowing Ouyang Si's heart knot yesterday, she changed her mind.

In any case, Ouyang Si is her benefactor and Zhu Heng's benefactor, and they have the obligation to help him buy a house and settle a home.

It's just that Zeng Rong wanted to hand over this matter to Mrs. Xu at the beginning, but Mrs. Qian suddenly mentioned it, Zeng Rong wanted to give Mrs. Qian a reassuring pill, plus this house is very likely to be for A Qian to live in the future, so it is better to simply hand over this matter to the Qian family.

Knowing that the house was bought for Ouyang Si, and Ouyang Si was going to bring his mother in March, Mrs. Qian understood Zeng Rong's intentions.

But it was clear that Mrs. Qian didn't want to take this silver ticket, and she couldn't figure out why Zeng Rong wanted to help Ouyang Si so much.
