After the marriage, the Fang Mansion returned to calm, and the Li family rested fiercely for several days before regaining his vitality.

And the people in Songhe Courtyard also rested enough, and began to clean up the yard where Ruzhen originally lived, and under the personal supervision of the old lady, Ruqing solemnly moved into Ruzhen's yard. Then change the original name of the courtyard to ----Freehand. Then by the way, he took advantage of Qiao's joy and accepted the gift in return.

Zhiyi was very good this time, and he was the first to give a gift, and Ruqing looked at the hard and bright dagger with jewels, and was speechless for a long time. However, she still let the agarwood pack into her treasure chest, I don't know how much this dagger is worth, but the gem on it is very large.

Rumei is the most friendly, and gave her a little golden dog made of six pieces of pure gold, which means six or six Shun. Rushan sent the four treasures of the study, Zhilian sent a stack of books, and Li pointed to the eldest girl Juqing and the second-class girl Siqin. Aunt Zhang also gave a pair of full sets of silver jewelry as a gift. Aunt Zhu was the happiest, and made a full set of clothes, shoes and a series of pillowcases for Ruqing.

Fang Jinglan saw that the children had given gifts, and he also showed his father's love meaningfully, but in order to be a good and competent father, he lovingly asked Ruqing what kind of gift she wanted.

Ruqing was not polite, she put her fingers on her two hands, the corners of Fang Jinglan's lips twitched, and said, is the little girl too greedy?

Ruqing shook her head, "It seems to be a little greedy, but it's not difficult for Daddy to do it." ”

Fang Jinglan gritted his teeth and asked Ruqing which eight kinds of gifts she wanted.

Ruqing pointed her fingers and said, "Daddy should eat well, sleep well, take care of his body, be less angry, and smile more." After a pause, under Fang Jinglan's moist eyes, he took out another finger and counted it, "Daddy still needs to grow more black hair and less white hair." Finally, can Daddy make me a swing? The banyan tree in her daughter's yard is so tall and sturdy, it really can't be wasted. ”

Fang Jinglan didn't have any reason to disagree, he hugged Ruqing and turned around three times in a row, and Shuanglang's laughter went straight to the roof.

Ruqing got her wish and got a beautiful swing made of sturdy huanghuali, fixed with copper leaves, and surrounded by railings on both sides of the swing, which was extremely difficult and quite safe. In the greetings of the people who were more attentive than before, she finally realized that Mama Hua taught her the way to survive in the house, which not only requires a careful heart, but also has a delicate heart to adapt, and must pay attention to the art and skill of speaking.

In the evening, Zhili came to Ruqing's freehand residence, saw the flat forehead on the door half ringed, came to Ruqing's new residence, and said, "This word should be written by my father, right?" It's just that this flat forehead is too ugly. I have a ready-made flat forehead made of ebony wood, take it and change it. “

Ruqing said happily: "Then sister, thank you big brother." ”

"A pair of shoes."

"Huh?" Ruqing didn't quite understand.

Zhili said: "Aunt Zhu's embroidered shoes are good, so use the shoes against the famous wood I brought back from Haining." ”

"----" Ruqing was dumbfounded.

"Trouble to tell Aunt Zhu that the insole is embroidered thicker, and the shoe body is made of soft fabric, which is slightly wider. Thanks a lot. Zhili glanced at Ruqing again, and found her dull eyes, and couldn't help but stretch out his hand and point to the blown hair on her cheeks, and then took out a shiny thing from his arms and handed it to her, "Look at you little money fan, take it and celebrate your housewarming." ”

Ruqingmu was for a long time, and finally understood that Zhili was playing tricks on her, so she couldn't help puffing out her cheeks angrily, and said angrily: "Big brother *** is playing tricks on people." But the hand is not empty, automatically spontaneously took the necklace made of jade, this chain design is very exquisite, the jade on the top is all polished into an irregular shape, there are square, round, and triangular shape, lonely, each about the size of a thumb, strung about 30 centimeters long necklace, this jade is very good, especially the feeling of cold touch, whether it is precious or not, this summer with the neck, and then it is cool.

Ruqing liked it immediately, hung it around her neck, and asked Zhili with a smile, "Big brother, is it good-looking?" ”

"Beautiful." Zhili took out two other objects from his bosom, one was a small and delicate pearl earring, and the other was a lotus embroidered with blue silk thread, and when he opened it, it was full of round and huge pearls, which were so big that he counted them, and there were about twenty of them.

"These are also given to me by others, and they are not worth a few dollars, so put them with me, and they will be of any use to you." So to speak. Ruqing didn't believe what he said at all, these pearls, the color is translucent and crystalline, and full and round, although they are not top-level beads, but they are also rare and good, how can he say that it is not worth a few dollars. But since people said so, she didn't want to ask, and they all laughed in her arms. Anyway, she didn't take it for nothing, did she? Do you have to give back a pair of shoes?

Zhili looked at Ruqingji's bright face, and suddenly felt sorry for her.

After moving to a new house, Ruqing also resumed her normal classes with Hu Fuzi in the morning, and Mama Hua taught her boudoir knowledge in the afternoon.

Because I learned that Mama Hua was Li Xiao's grandmother, and she was very respected by Li Xiao, she was as good as she was beautiful, and she was respectful to Mama Hua, and it was a great time to learn.

However, the teaching in the women's boudoir sounds complicated, but in fact, it is extremely simple to teach according to the time, and after the two sisters of Rushan and Rumei finally got up to study for a few days, Mama Hua resigned to the old lady, saying that she had taught the girl almost everything.

The old lady asked Ruqing how she had learned, and Shi Qing replied: "Mama teaches very carefully and carefully, and her granddaughter is basically put into her head." ”

The old lady smiled with satisfaction, touched Ruqing's head, agreed to Mama Hua's resignation, and asked people to prepare twenty taels of silver, thanking Mama Hua for her hard work for more than a year.

Mama Hua refused, but the old lady insisted again and again to no avail, so she had to give up, and personally brought Ruqing to the gate of Songhe Hall, and then returned to Songhe Hall.

Ruqing was lying on the chaise longue behind the old lady, her cute little feet swaying gently, her hands supporting her cheeks, and her eyes flashing slightly. The old lady patted her ass and smiled, "What are you thinking about again?" Thief's eyebrows. ”

Ruqing said: "Grandma, the second sister and the third sister have studied seriously these days, and it is estimated that they have really opened their minds, and they finally understand the importance of etiquette." Ruqing always felt that the word grandmother was too strict, and finally got the old lady's consent and called grandma instead. It's so kind, and it's easy to shout.

The old lady pursed her lips and poked her head, "Just say what you want, in front of me, do you still need to beat around the bush?" ”

Ruqing stuck out her tongue, hugged the old lady and shook gently, "The one who gave birth to me, Aunt Zhu, the one who knows me, and grandma." When the old lady couldn't help laughing, she said: "Second sister--- she thinks too much, and her goals are too high, I don't know if it's good or bad?" ”

The old lady reflected on the meaning of her words and laughed, "What does this matter to you?" Go and embroider your flowers, such as a good thing, there are her own aunts and worries, you don't ask. Finally, he glared at her again, "I found that you have been a little lazy recently, plum blossoms embroidered into peach blossoms, puppies embroidered into tigers, no matter how good the embroidery is, be careful about your skin." ”

Ruqing shrunk her neck, hurriedly got off the bed, and went to complete the task assigned by the old lady---- embroidering a flower a day.

However, while embroidering, I couldn't help but wonder how Rushan would react after learning the news of Mama Hua's resignation, whether she cried bitterly or regretted it?

After Shen Pozi, Hu's mother, agarwood, and sunny days and nights, every moment of **, has successfully passed the test, and greatly sat in the position of the big girl. However, Linglong is indeed a good servant, and strictly follows the consciousness that only top girls can have: the main is worried, the servant is anxious, the master is confused, and the servant is solved. Hurriedly put down the work at hand and rushed out---- she is a very caring and very capable and all-round servant, not only to serve the master, but also to upgrade to the spiritual level of service.

Agarwood chased after her, "Dead hoof, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Are you done with your job? ”

What responded to Agarwood was only the back of Linglong rushing out, and a sentence full of neutrality, "I'm going to inquire about something." ”

After a while, Linglong came back full of vigor and told Ruqing about gossip.

As expected, Rushan cried very sadly when she learned that Mama Hua no longer taught, she cried that she was ignorant and had not studied well before, but now she can't learn if she wants to, and she regrets that she made Mama Hua angry from time to time, crying to sex, and asked Mama Hua to forgive her for her previous ignorance.

Hua Mama said to Bi Mei beside Rushan with a pleasant face: "The girl next to the second girl is right, you are so smart, you can learn everything quickly, the old woman has this ability, it is okay to cheat some ordinary people's money, but the second girl is such a powerful person, the old woman is only a shallow learner." The second girl is so smart, I believe that she doesn't need the guidance of her wife, she will definitely be extraordinary, and she will be able to learn it. Why spend a lot of time on the old woman? Mama Hua said the last sentence slowly and in an accentuated tone.

Rushan couldn't hear the meaning, his face was red with shame, and under the eyes of Mama Hua's serious insight into everything, the words that rolled to her throat were swallowed unconsciously.

After hearing this, Ruqing suddenly became happy.

If it was said that on the day of Ruzhen's wedding, many dignitaries and dignitaries came to the Fang Mansion to make Fang Jinglan feel proud, then Zhiyi was appreciated by General Fu, which made him extremely excited. I feel that he has no regrets in this life, and his children are so angry. If his other four children were to do the same in the future, he would wake up laughing even when he fell asleep.

If the happy event passed not long ago, the old general Fu who had been serving as the commander-in-chief of the three armies in Datong, Shanxi, also threw an olive branch to Zhiyi, and sent the Chinese military academy Wei to personally send a letter, the letter mentioned that Zhiyi wrote to him a few days ago that the good strategy for controlling the enemy was very effective, and successfully repelled several looting of the Mongolian soldiers, and also took the initiative to attack a few times, a small gain, so far the border area between Shanxi and Mongolia is still peaceful, the people took this opportunity to harvest a lot of mature crops, this year is a good year for a bumper harvest, if it is not for Zhiyi's timely strategy to control the enemy, Maybe the common people couldn't even harvest their crops under the invasion of the Mongol soldiers, thanks to Zhiyi's clever recipe for defeating the enemy. Deeply aware of Yiyi's strategy against the enemy, he made an exception to let Zhiyi join the army at the age of fourteen, and waived the general promotion rules, and directly followed the left and right, and let him be his own soldiers.

Although the personal soldiers of General Fu Lao, the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, have no rank, their status is higher than that of ordinary soldiers, and they are far away from the swords and swords on the battlefield. And Zhiyi's fourteen years old is not yet the age of a weak crown, so he can have this treatment, and he also has the meaning of General Fu's pity. Fang Jinglan carefully read the letter inside and out three times, stroked his beard, and laughed proudly without paying attention.

Then, Zhiyi set off on the same day and went to Datong, Shanxi, to begin his future struggle for fame.

It is estimated that if you really get married, Zhili has taken the fame test, and Zhiyi will also soar, and the brothers and sisters of Rushan Zhilian have been stimulated, and they have studied harder these days. In Hu Fuzi's class, all questions must be answered, and the truth is profound and difficult. And every afternoon is also from the non-stop practice, the piano art is more and more sophisticated, what is more commendable is that never touch the embroidery of the good, can actually embroider beautiful flowers. This can be a terrible blow to Ruqing, who has been practicing hard every day. Suddenly there is no goal to strive for, people are so good and so good, no matter how hard she tries, it will be in vain.

The old lady hated and scolded her, "In vain, you are usually so smart, why are you so confused at this time, my wife has lived a lot of years, and I have never heard of it, and those who can be full of poetry will be involved in those mundane affairs." You're going to worry about that. ”

Ruqing was scolded so badly that the Xia Lin family couldn't stand it, and secretly told her a secret, "Girl, cheer up, when the second young master leaves the house, the girl's life will be better." "The Xia Lin family's refers to Fang Jinglan, who has been looking more and more unpleasant recently, the words are always not written well, and the embroidery is getting worse and worse.

If you don't know what to do, what does this have to do with Zhiyi's second brother leaving the house?

Xia Lin's family glanced left and right, and then lowered his voice and said, "I heard that in the near future, the prince of King Jing will come to our mansion, and I heard that he will go to Datong, Shanxi with our second young master." ”

Ruqing was still confused, but under the eyes of the Xia Lin family's hatred of iron, she finally understood the chagrin.
