Salty snow seeds fell in a flutter and rustled against the blinds.

The snow in the capital is sandy, no wonder Xie An asked the children of the family in the past, "What is the snow like", Hu Er said, "The difference between the salt and the air can be imitated", of course, it is widely praised by later generations that Xie Daoyun's "not if the catkins rise because of the wind".

The Xie family is a Jinling wang clan, and the snow they sing is the gentle and lingering snow in the Wuyi Alley by the Zhuque Bridge on the bank of the Qinhuai River, and the snow in the south of the Yangtze River is cotton.

The third grandmother sat by the window doing needlework, raised her head from time to time to rub the back of her neck, looked at the snow outside the window and walked for a while, needlework for a long time hurt her eyes and spine, she was only in her early twenties, and her eyes were already a little dizzy. There is no way, the people of this mansion are prosperous and can't make ends meet, but the pomp of the clan still has to be placed, their three rooms are the second sons, and there is no lord to inherit in the future, and there are three children to marry, and they only live on the monthly money in the mansion every month, and every penny has to be broken into two parts.

Thinking of the trivial chicken feathers every day, the third grandmother sighed lightly, just looking at the three Jiao'er playing on the kang, and she was sincerely gratified, no matter how hard it was, it was worth it.

The maid Furui raised the curtain and greeted the male master who was dressed in a snowstorm, Rui Sanye dusted off the snow beads and walked to the edge of the carbon basin to roast the fire, scolding the plague and not letting people go out, this windy and snowy, he had to come back early to find his brothers to drink wine, in case it was too late to walk.

After the body was warmed, Rui Sanye went to the kang to hug the children, the three children in the third room are all from the wife, the eldest son Yu Wenzheng is four years old this year, it is the time to be lively and active, as soon as he saw his father coming, he climbed on his back, and asked his father if he brought him back with a sugar man.

Third Master Rui pinched the boy's tender face and made him open his mouth, "If you eat too much sugar and grow worm teeth, worms will crawl into your stomach!" ”

The bluffing child frowned and covered his stomach.

The third grandmother looked at the kang master with a gentle smile, although the husband has no great interest, it is rare to treat the children well, there are no children in the third room, and the family will be their own people in the future, no matter how bitter they are.

The younger pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses have just turned one year old, and they will also call their fathers and mothers, Rui Sanye loves his little daughter the most, and he put one on his lap in one hand, and took out a pair of red butterfly velvet flowers from the dark pocket in front of his shirt, and dangled in front of his little daughter's eyes. The little girl doll may not know Aimei yet, but she likes bright things, stretches out her hand to ask, Rui Sanye pinned her daughter on her head, but she didn't want her younger son to like it too, and she also stretched out her hand to ask for it, Rui Sanye gave him a pin, but let the eldest brother Yuwen Zheng laugh at his younger brother for wearing a girl's head flower, but the little boy doll didn't understand, seeing that his father and brother were laughing, he also grinned, and his saliva flowed.

Third Master Rui beckoned the third grandmother to come over, "Don't do it, you will be doing it when I leave, you are still doing it when I come back, don't be tired of yourself, the house can still be short, our clothes can be short, right?" ”

Donghai County Mansion is a side branch clan, Rui Sanye's grandfather is the cousin of Emperor Taizu, Emperor Taizu ascended the throne and said that the emperor benefited his family, and gave his own brothers and uncles and brothers knights, and Rui Sanye's grandfather won a county prince at that time.

After Emperor Taizu ascended the throne, he was given a county prince because of his uncle's brotherhood, and it was passed on to the father of Rui Sanye, which is the county duke, and the next generation to the eldest brother of Rui Sanye, is the county duke, and there is no lord after the county duke.

The current Donghai County Duke is also a leather child who grew up with his father in the countryside, and only followed his father into Beijing at the age of eight, when the country was first established and waiting to be revived, after years of war and people's livelihood withered and collapsed, Emperor Taizu was busy rectifying the country, where to manage the family of this group of mud-legged relatives, so Donghai County Gong did not receive any good education, after entering Beijing, he played at home, and at the age of fifteen he wanted to kiss the family before inviting a gentleman, taught him for two years, only a few words.

The ability of the Donghai County Duke is not big, the ability to give birth to children is not small, he is the only son after his parents gave birth to four daughters, he has been used to not being the same since he was a child, the old man and the old lady are all country people's ideas, feel that there are many sons and many blessings, because they only have one son, so let the Donghai County Duke give birth to a few more sons to pass the incense, the Donghai County Duke and the wife of the main room gave birth to three sons and one daughter, and there are concubines who gave birth to three sons and four daughters.

The third room is the second son of the lady of the main room, and it is lukewarm and stuck in the middle, but it is better to have a mother to take care of it, it is better than those concubines, and now Rui Sanye still has five younger brothers and sisters who are not married, and this fee alone is a headache for the house. The duchess of the county holds the dowry and does not let go, anyway, her children are married, and the rest can be done, but they can't be separated, she is too lazy to care, the money bag in the house is bottomed out, don't think about her penny, her private house is to be left to her own bloodline.

It is said that poor couples mourn everything, so many mouths in the house are to be chewed, and the prince of Donghai County often quarrels with his wife for the matter of money, hoping that his wife will take some money out to marry his children, but his wife is unwilling, the concubine is born to you and your concubine, and you and your concubine prepare a dowry for them.

The county duchess is also blind to the chaos in this house, from the eldest daughter-in-law into the house after the feed to the daughter-in-law to take care of, she only as the old Fengjun with the grandson, the newborn dragon and phoenix fetus in the third room can get her eyes, afraid of wronging a pair of golden grandsons, privately made up a lot, but let the prince of the world not angry, why she does the hardest and most tiring work, but let the three rooms benefit! In a fit of anger, she hugged her illness and handed over the power of the family, and whoever likes to take it over, she will have to rest for a few days.

The third grandmother and several children are still young, and they have no time to take charge of family affairs, and the fifth grandmother has just entered the door, and she said that she is thin-skinned and does not want to take it, and a few daughters-in-law want to take it, but the county duchess does not let it, so she has to take it herself. No matter how bad this mansion is, it is also her son's mansion, and it can't be touched by those concubines.

The third grandmother thought of the chaos in the house, and her heart was full of worries, and she didn't know when she would be able to split up.

In fact, it can't be called a golden jade, no one in Beijing knows the family background of the Donghai County Mansion, everyone sees it as a joke, and their family is the most good with this surname.

Oh, this surname was changed later, which village have you seen with a mud leg surnamed Yuwen? Their family was originally surnamed Zhou, Emperor Taizu unveiled the uprising, met a fortune-telling half-immortal on the side of the road, said that he was the emperor's life, but this surname hindered his future, he needed to change his surname to add some luxury, Emperor Taizu chose the word Yuwen himself, it happened that the Northern Zhou Dynasty was surnamed Yuwen, Emperor Taizu was reluctant to have his surname, after the establishment of the country, he took Zhou as the country name, called the Great Zhou.

It is called the Great Zhou, in fact, there are still two small countries in the south that have not been subdued, the Zhou Dynasty should not be called the Zhou Dynasty, it should be called the Zhou Dynasty, the Zhou State is not a unified country at present, and it can be called the Great Zhou Dynasty after the unification of the Central Plains.
