The room was quiet, and all I could hear was an almost self-muttering voice, "Ali? ”

Yan Bozhai ignored Qiu Sheng's words, and seemed to be just interested in the name, repeating it several times, muttering, "Jun Boyu, make an appointment to be polite." It turned out that he hadn't forgotten his first name and last name......"

In a trance, it seemed that he heard the old and majestic voice again, "Since he is the eldest grandson of our Yan family, he naturally has to have a good name and surname, as for him-"

The indifferent and contemptuous eyes glanced at the cowering wooden boy in the corner with disgust, "Then follow Bo's word, and call it Bo Zhai."

Those who fast are also plagued.

This is in the study, I heard the joke of people chewing the root of their tongues unscrupulously outside. Obviously, it is already the season of spring flowers, and the warm wind is still smoking the aroma of the *** bush in the corner, but the young man's heart seems to be still sinking in the cold winter wax moon, unable to extricate himself.

Qiu Sheng didn't answer a word because the Lord hadn't come to ask him yet.

Fingers tapped on the black sandalwood table, and the whiteness was extremely dazzling, and for a long time, Yan Bozhai's eyes still flashed a trace of hesitation.

"Grand Duke, this is a soft-hearted person who can't take advantage of the Meng family's small age to be an official there, but it's a godsend" Qiu Sheng took a step forward at the right time and whispered in his ear, "That day, it was a little strange that Madame suddenly invited a group of people to enjoy the plums. Later, he also specially rewarded the little prince of the Qiao family with a ruby ring, and after checking it for several days, someone remembered that the ring was a birthday gift he gave to his wife back then. The girl who dropped the teacup is also Madame's henchman, as soon as Qiao Ergong goes out from us, he will go to send his own merchant ship, there is this husband and wife surnamed Zhao What are they playing in this, but they can't tell the reason, and they have to guard against it."

Ruby? Yan Bozhai thought about it intently, and suddenly remembered that many years ago, he was reading hard in the shabby study, and the young man came in with a box of ornaments.

The crisp and pleasant voice said, "Big brother, look at the ornaments I picked for my mother, and I want to make her a birthday gift." This ruby was originally a large stone, and I bought it in its entirety. Deliberately let the craftsman chisel it open and beat it for his mother, and this one is unique in the world, do you think it looks good? ”

Vaguely, I still remember the confident look on the young man's face at that time, as if the best things in the whole world should be attributed to their mother. And what about yourself? I can only secretly clench my fists, pierce my palms with sharp nails, and smile and whisper......

"Grand Duke?"

Qiu Sheng called lightly, making Yan Bozhai come back to his senses, his eyes sank, and then looked at everything around him, he made up his mind almost instantly, and said in a calm voice, "Young people always have a bad temper, even if they can endure it for a while, where can they endure it for a lifetime?" Tell the people outside to be careful, and come back when they finish their errands early, and don't stay outside. ”

Qiu Sheng slowly lowered his eyes, "Yes, the little one knows." ”

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the black mink fur left without hesitation, and the room was still as warm as spring. Qiu Sheng slowly straightened his waist and stared at all the things around him, these things can only be inhabited by capable people

Hectic and busy, the New Year's footsteps are getting closer and closer.

Zhang Zhao and the two discussed it and decided on the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. Because Chinese New Year's Eve was spent at Zhao's house, the lunch on that day was used at Zhang's side. In the evening, Zhang Qingting and his family followed Zhao Wang's family back to the New Year, and the Zhang family took Fang Mingzhu to keep the New Year together. Although Zhang Qingting has some regrets, after all, she is a married daughter, and she should still be dominated by her in-laws, and no one said that they would be mixed together.

At the end of the racecourse, they made dumplings early in the morning and made all kinds of food, which were sent by Zhang Qingting personally, and Zhao Chengcai specially told them not to be greedy for cups and misdeeds, even if they set off fireworks, they must be in an open place outside, and don't let the sparks burst on the haystack, it is not a joke

Yan Boying will definitely take care of it, and the two of them will leave with confidence. I went back to Zhao's house to pick up my father, mother and brother to worship in the tribe, because there were many people today, and the weather was cold, so I didn't shy away from driving my own carriage to and fro. This is the first time that Zhang Qingting has entered the Zhao family ancestral hall as a daughter-in-law, and last year she was sick, and the Zhao family also had a lot of things, so she missed it.

The small ancestral hall is not big, and the courtyard is very tidy as soon as you enter. Men on the left and women on the right, as long as the people who can come from every household are all here, they stand according to their seniority, just because Zhao Chengcai is the only one who has a meritorious reputation, so the family is standing next to the elders of the clan, which is also a great honor.

The Zhao clan is weak, not very wealthy, and does not have much clan property, and these expenses are all due to the voluntary payment of the clan every year. Of course, such a rural sacrifice cannot be compared with a large family like Zhangfu, but the pots of sacrifices are also prepared with the most sincere intentions, passed from everyone's hands, and then presented by several clan elders on the incense table one by one.

After offering to the ancestors and performing rituals, except for the heads of animals and fruits and flowers as a sign, the rest of the things must be distributed to each family fairly. First, the countrymen can't afford such extravagance and waste, and secondly, it is also for everyone to get a good fortune from the protection of their ancestors.

Zhang Qingting felt that this was more practical than the rule that large families only provided for food, and this kind of distribution also had a practical significance, that is, it was equivalent to giving the clansmen who were really poor and could not afford to live in a decent way in disguise.

Of course, Zhao Chengcai has also made a lot of friends this year, because his family is wealthy, and the clansmen are also very courteous to their family. But inside and outside the words, Zhang Qingting heard some meanings, and he was afraid that he would have to buy some clan property in the future to block these critical words, and now he pretended to be stupid. When the sacrifice was finished, the families went back.

A carload of people here went directly back to the other end of the alley, the Zhang family is also a small clan, but there are also sacrifices. Zhang Facai didn't want to go back to fill the wronged boss and make trouble for his daughter, so he asked Zhang Jinbao to ride a horse and bring money to be a representative, and when they rushed back, the family banquet was already ready.

The red-hot firecrackers were let go, and a large table of delicacies and wine was put on the table, and at this moment, everyone's face was temporarily put down, and only said some auspicious words to ask for good luck.

This meal is eaten from the middle of the day to the sunset, the Zhao family here has said goodbye, and the Zhang family over there does not have to withdraw the table, just wait for the evening to add some more dishes to form a table again. That's how the New Year is, to appear rich.

This year, this is the first time that Zhao Chengcai's young couple have come home to live after moving out, and Zhao Wang's family attaches great importance to it, after all, this is the eldest daughter-in-law, but there is not even a serious house here, if they don't prepare a place to live, it is really a little unreasonable. Besides, she was also afraid of Zhang Qingting's daughter-in-law's crooked reasoning, so although it was only the first day or two of the tenth and new year, she still cleaned up a main room next door to her and gave them a small couple to live in.

originally said that Aunt Niu would also clean up a room, but if she had to toss it again, she could only move Zhao Chengdong to Liu Fang's house and vacate his house for Aunt Niu. Aunt Niu has long said that there is no need to toss around, she only lives here for one night, and she doesn't really look down on that couple, if she wants to rest, she can live in a room with Zhao Yulan, and she can also help her take care of the child, so that's it.

In the ten nights, the Zhao family prepared all kinds of things, and in the end, it was nothing more than sitting around and making dumplings.

While chatting, Zhao Wangshi casually asked, "Yulan, is your pastry business profitable?" I think I also gave the two of them a bag, do you have enough money there? ”

"Mother, don't you worry, my sister's pastry business is good" Zhao Chengcai took the words with a smile and made a long face for his sister, "You can even pay back your sister-in-law, right?" ”

"Where?" Zhao Yulan's face was a little red, and she said the truth, "I just calculated the accounts, in addition to the capital and wages, there is still money to be made, but if the business continues to be done, where will there be any money left to repay my sister-in-law's capital for a while?" If you count the rental money, it will be even more insufficient, if you don't stop, I want to open in the fourth year of junior high school, this big New Year, there are many people who visit relatives and friends, and it is nothing to buy a box of dim sum, many customers asked a few years ago, I think the business must be good at that time."

Zhao Wangshi was a little displeased when he heard this, glanced at Zhang Qingting, and muttered in a low voice, "What are you talking about during the New Year and not paying back?" It's not really a deserved account, so what do you do so clearly? ”

"Mother, you misunderstood" Zhao Yulan hurriedly defended her sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law doesn't want me to pay back the money, but since this is a business, it's better to calculate it clearly, and you have to know how much you have earned." ”

Aunt Niu pinched a dumpling and put it on the table, "Yulan is not wrong in what she said to really do business, but you can't be so confused, how much should it be." It's like selling dumplings, saying that if you want to have a big bowl, that's twelve, and a small bowl is eight, and it's not ambiguous, but you can't just put it in the bowl at will, and the business will be messed up."

Zhao Wangshi was speechless when he listened, and Zhao Chengdong suddenly came up with an idea, "Sister, you see, why don't you let Ah Fang help you in the future, she is idle all day long, and you all have to do it, let her also do some craftsmanship and earn some pocket money, how good is this"

He finished speaking happily, but saw that the whole room was silent.

Liu Fang's face stiffened, and she didn't want to be there in her heart, and it wasn't that she hadn't helped over there, of course she knew that cooking was the hardest. Dough and cake making are all about careful and patient hard work, even if she wants to make money, she doesn't want such hard money.

She didn't want to go, Zhao Yulan didn't want to accept it, she used to think that Liu Fang was not bad, but when she really did the moon, she saw this person through. She is afraid of the heavy, lazy and slippery, she doesn't want to find such a person to go back and block herself. But I can't say it explicitly, so I won't give my brother face. But my brother and sister-in-law are not easy to intervene on this issue, but what?
