Chapter 194: Digging Out of Pocket
Lu Man said with a smile, "The money and property given to Zhankui and Xiao Jiu'er in the house, as well as the things that the elders rewarded them, are all reserved for them to use when they get married." They spend the day with us, and we'll pay for all their expenses. ”
The eldest princess was very satisfied, patted Lu Man's hand and said, "Good boy, their little brother and sister follow you, this palace can rest assured." ”
After that, they sat down in the upper side room of the courtyard of the third entrance. Two pots of charcoal were burned in the house, and now the cage and kang were burned, and it gradually warmed up.
Lu Man personally took out a brown Hangzhou silk embroidered flower pad and put it on the kang, and helped the eldest princess to sit down. Then he took the small hand stove of pink porcelain five-petal plum blossom handed over by Mama Wang and stuffed it into the hands of the eldest princess.
The eldest princess smiled at the old concubine and said, "It's useless to just say that the granddaughter-in-law is good, you have to show it." ”
"What does that mean?" The old colt asked ignorantly.
The eldest princess nodded, "It's a gift." Grandchildren, granddaughters, and granddaughters-in-law are about to move, and you have to give valuable things. ”
The old concubine said, "I only want to give it to my granddaughter-in-law and granddaughter, I don't want to give it to those two concubines, okay?" ”
This was the first time that the old horse had come out of his mouth after he got sick.
Thinking of the old concubine's disappointment just now, and Jiang Zhanwei, who was disgusted and went to join the army, the eldest princess became sad and complained, "No matter how concubine it is, it is also our blood and bones." Zhan Wei retired, and because of you, he married this daughter-in-law, and how much he was wronged. As a result, this daughter-in-law is better, and with her, your illness can get better so quickly. Because the master didn't want to see them, and because some people didn't like them, he had to divide them out in advance. Her eyes turned red, and she raised her voice and said, "Our two old guys are not dead yet, so we will separate our grandsons and live alone." Zhan Kui and Xiao Jiu'er were just six years old, so they handed them over to their sister-in-law to raise. When I think about it, I feel sad. ”
Thinking that the grandson was about to go to the border to fight, and he didn't know if he could come back, the eldest princess actually shed tears.
The eldest grandmother blushed, knowing that the old lady was alluding to her mother-in-law, maybe including her father-in-law, and even herself and her own man.
The second lady also bowed her head and said nothing. She knew that among the people scolded by the old lady, the second master must be included. She said in her heart, just about the situation in the house, the smart concubine and the concubine, and she couldn't wait to get out.
Lu Man really wanted to separate it in his heart. But seeing the old lady like this, she still persuaded, "Grandmother, don't be sad, although we are separated, we are still under your care, and we have to go around you every day." ”
He glared at the old colt again, and pouted, "It's all my grandfather's fault, which makes my grandmother sad." I am the daughter-in-law of the concubine, you dislike the concubine so much, but even I dislike it. In the future, Xiao Jiu'er and I didn't dare to kick on my grandfather's door. ”
The old man saw that he offended the two women he liked, and hurriedly said, "Changting, daughter-in-law, don't be angry, I won't talk nonsense." He flattered him and said, "When my granddaughter-in-law moves, I will give a big red envelope and seal a lot of silver." ”
The third lady saw that the atmosphere was not good, and guessed that the eldest princess must have felt sorry for her grandson and grandson to visit in advance, and the furnishings were shabby, so that they would have to pay for heavy bleeding in their pockets. Hurriedly giggled, "My father-in-law is going to give a lot of silver, and I want to have a show, Zhan Wei's daughter-in-law saved my family Zhan Yan's life." ”
The eldest princess said, "The gifts given by the third uncle and the third aunt are not allowed to be shabby. ”
The third lady smiled, "Don't dare." If you are shabby, your daughter-in-law is afraid that your mother-in-law will beat you and get angry. He thought about it for a while, and then said, "I'll send a pair of Wuyao's five sons Dengke colorful dendrobium and put them in the house to celebrate." Ouch, that pair of dendrobiums was still rewarded by my mother-in-law when my lord was in the Jinshi, and I was reluctant to take it out and use it, so I borrowed flowers to offer the Buddha. ”
The eldest princess saw that she had taken out the pair of dendrobiums, and nodded with satisfaction.
The eldest grandmother hurriedly said again, "I'll give you a jade double long deer." ”
Her heart bleeds after she finished, and it was one of her best dowries.
Lu Man was bullied, Jiang Zhanwei's brother and sister split up, and the eldest princess was most angry about their big house. If she took out such a thing and gave it to them, not to mention that the prince would be happy, the father-in-law would be satisfied, and the eldest princess would look up to her even more. Moreover, the father-in-law would rather the eldest princess be unhappy and support Jiang Zhanwei to divide it, which is really a wise decision. The old lady felt guilty about Jiang Zhanwei, and she loved this Lu family boundlessly. Although this powerful couple is not sorry for the status of the long house now, it is always uncomfortable to live under one roof.
The second lady smiled, "I'll send an agarwood inlaid jade beast pattern bookcase." ”
Lu Man was reluctant to accept these "kindnesses", she knew that most of these people would be sent because of the eldest princess's aggressiveness. And the second room is much poorer than the other two rooms, the second lady's maiden family is not rich, Jiang Zhanyu is sick, the second master Yamen Qingshui, and likes to collect antiques, calligraphy and paintings, most of them rely on the eldest princess to feel distressed, and often privately subsidize the silver to him.
She hurriedly refused, "I have received your wishes, these things are too precious, I really can't accept them." ”
The eldest princess said domineeringly, "Take it, they are all rich people, and they can't be poor if they take something out." He also said to Mama Qian, "Let people bring the white jade auspicious Ruyi lid furnace, the gold-inlaid jade gourd bottle, and the small red sandalwood landscape Bogu shelf in the private library of the old concubine." ”
Lu Man couldn't refuse again, so he had to come over and thank them on his knees. He also said that they officially moved on the twentieth day of the lunar month, and invited them to have a moving banquet.
Everyone played here until it was nearly noon, and then they got up and left.
The old colt enjoyed the freedom to walk without help, walking briskly in front of him, and occasionally trotting two steps. But his steps are not too steady, some like a child, which makes the hearts of people who look at him high.
The eldest princess was very happy, and when she came to Donghui Courtyard, the old horse had made great progress in both intelligence and body. She didn't say it, but she was even more sure that the Lu family was the lucky star of the old horse.
The next morning, after Lu Man got up for a lunch break, he went directly to Donghui Courtyard, and the gifts given by those people had already brought people here. It is not put into the warehouse, and is placed in the outer study, the upper hall, the side room, and the inner study. Not to mention, putting these things there really raised the grade of the house.
At this time, Liu Xin came with a finished copper pipe.
The copper pipe is a little more than three feet, and the tiger head pattern is carved on the outside, which is very good-looking.
Although this kind of military telescope is rough and weird, Lu Man still can't put it down. smiled at Liu Xin, "This is your third master's artifact, you can personally send it to him another day." ”
Then, she hurriedly returned to Lan Tingzhou, put the lenses in, and then flattened the thin copper skin with an awl to fix the lenses.
She came outside with a telescope, and the scenery in the distance was in full view, and even Jiang Zhankui led the flag commander to run on the other side of the lake clearly.
