Chapter 401 August Osmanthus Fragrance
The four seasons in the capital are distinct, and at the beginning of August, Shuangjing Hutong is filled with the sweet fragrance of osmanthus flowers.
Huo Roufeng sat in the octagonal pavilion and asked Mobi to grind it for her, and she was writing solemnly.
Every few days, she would write a letter to Zhanhuai, her handwriting was very correct, and her neat pavilion style had already gained some skill from her previous life to the present.
Zhanhuai didn't reply to her much, sometimes she wrote five, and Zhanhuai only replied to one.
There is a lot of content in the letter she wrote to Zhanhuai, she spent 1,000 taels to buy a spear that is said to have been used by Zhao Zilong, and after finding out that she was deceived, she sold it for 2,000 taels, indicating that it was Yue Fei's family heirloom; Li Ye got married, the Li family wanted to take root in Beizhili, and gave him the girl of the Guan family in Baoding, Li Ye went to look at each other quietly, and found that the woman had a melon face, Li Ye refused to go on a hunger strike, and later learned that he recognized the wrong person, and the girl of the Guan family was very beautiful; There was a little black dog to seduce Jin Douer, was beaten away by Black Bean, the little black dog was indomitable, continued to seduce, she looked interesting, so she left the little black dog to adopt, the next day a stout woman came to the door and said that she stole the dog......
Unconsciously, Huo Roufeng had already written five pages of letterhead, and she wrote at the end of the letter: "Xiaozhan, have you grown taller?" I grew taller, and the autumn clothes I sewed in the summer were already short, so I had to sew new ones. ”
Writing this, she paused, in fact, not only did she sew new autumn clothes, but her sister also quietly asked Caiyifang to sew skirts and gowns for her......
She sealed the written credit fire paint and asked Zhang Xuan to send it to the official post to send it.
She asked Mobi, "Why hasn't she come back yet?" ”
Ji Bi smiled: "When Ji Cui sees Sister Cai Qin, she must have something to say, Jiu Ye wait a little longer, she will definitely come back before dark." ”
In the spring, the family affairs of Cai Qin finally settled, it is a family surnamed Cui in Fengtai, and Cui Guan of Yongfeng Fengtai is a relative, there are 50 acres of flower beds at home, and there are two greenhouses, there are shops in the flower garden of Fengtai, and in winter in the greenhouse to plant fresh melons and vegetables, the family is well-off, last year in the western suburbs of the capital flower market also opened a shop, do flower business.
Cai Qin is going to marry Cui Tian, the second son of the Cui family, he is two years older than Cai Qin, he looks energetic, and he is also smart, last year Cui Dad took him to the capital to open a shop, less than a year, Cui Dad gave him the shop with confidence, and went back to Fengtai by himself.
Huo Roufeng heard that it was a relative of Steward Cui's family before, and she didn't agree, she remembered that Steward Cui had a rosacea nose.
Helpless, Mama Fan had no choice but to ask someone to bring a message to Cui Tian and ask him to send fifty hostas to Shuangjing Hutong, when Cui Tian came to send flowers, Huo Roufeng ran to the back door to see people, and saw that Cui Tian didn't look like Cui Tian at all, not only did he not have a rosacea nose, but he was also very delicate, not like the children of the Zhuang family.
Huo Roufeng is very happy, the ninth master's happiness is all real money, and Cai Qin is a careful girl, she can write and keep accounts, take out the small book, every time the ninth master promises to her to remember the dowry clearly, there are years, months, days and hours.
Jiu Ye laughed and handed over the small book to the account, so how rich Caiqin's dowry is can be imagined, Steward Cui ran to Cui's house and said, Daddy Cui was so shocked that he couldn't keep his mouth shut for a long time, he originally thought that he would marry a big girl from a big family in Beijing, and he would manage the accounts after seeing the world, and he would be able to help the second boy in the future, and he was already more outstanding than the Zhuang families in ten miles and eight villages, but he didn't expect that the girl's dowry was so much.
Worried that Cui Tian would not be able to raise his head in front of his daughter-in-law in the future, after discussing with his eldest son, Cui's father invited a Chinese person to transfer the shop in the capital to Cui Tian's name, so that Cui Tian had private property.
In fact, Cai Qin's dowry has been carefully considered, and after the people in the account room discussed with Cai Qin, they exchanged the mansion and shop in Hangzhou promised by the Ninth Master with a two-entry house in the capital, and the 200 acres of paddy fields in Hangzhou were converted into a small grange of 50 acres in Tongzhou, and the rest were all converted into Cai Qin's private silver. The private silver is picked by the celery himself, and it is not visible.
Huo Roufeng gave her the house in Gaosheng Hutong to Cai Qin to marry, and the day of the kiss was set in mid-September, half a month ago, Cai Qin moved into Gaosheng Hutong, yesterday Cai Qin's old son came from Hangzhou, and today she went to visit for the ninth master.
Since childhood, it is the first time that Huo Roufeng has been separated from Cai Qin for so long, although the Cui family has promised that Cai Qin will return to Shuangjing Hutong to be the housekeeper's daughter-in-law after getting married, but Huo Roufeng still feels that Cai Qin has been snatched away.
After Zhu Cui came back, she told Huo Roufeng and said: "Ninth Master, when she was leaving, Sister Caiqin pulled the slave and maid aside, saying that her mother wanted to come to Shuangjing Hutong to kowtow to Jiu Ye, and asked Jiu Ye if he was free. ”
Huo Roufeng frowned, she wasn't at home yesterday, and when she heard that Cai Qinniang had arrived in the capital, she came over to kowtow to her sister, and her sister also rewarded her with twenty taels of silver, why did she still kowtow to her? Didn't get enough of the reward?
Cai Qin is a child, her mother worked as a rough girl in Liuxi Lane when she was young, but when she was in Hangzhou, Huo Roufeng didn't see her a few times.
But she misses Cai Qin very much now, and it's nothing to see Cai Qin's mother.
Huo Roufeng nodded, and said to Zhu Cui: "Find someone to go to Gaosheng Hutong and say something, let the mother of the celery pick come over tomorrow." ”
The house in Gaosheng Hutong was originally bought to be sold at a high price, but later Zhanhuai temporarily lived there, and Jinyiwei took away the Geng brothers and An Hai, and the price couldn't go up, Huo Roufeng simply didn't want to sell it, so he stayed until now.
The next day, just after breakfast, Cai Qin Niang came, she went to kowtow to Huo Da Niang according to the etiquette, Huo Da Niang went to Yongfeng early in the morning, and she came to see Huo Roufeng again.
People are in good spirits on happy occasions, Cai Qinniang only arrived in the capital yesterday, and she was tired of traveling, but she was not tired, and she looked more energetic than when she was in Hangzhou.
Huo Roufeng asked her with a smile: "Is it okay in the alley?" ”
The alley in Huo Roufeng's mouth is the alley behind the old house in Liuxi Lane, Hangzhou, where the children of the Huo family's second room live, and the Cai Qin family also lives there.
Cai Qinniang hurriedly said: "Thanks to the blessing of the ninth master, all the old and young in the alley are all fine, I heard that the slave maid's family is coming to the capital, and they all let the slave and maid kowtow to the ninth master and the eldest lady for them, and the slave and maid really want to kowtow for them one by one, I'm afraid that the kowtow will not be finished until tomorrow." ”
Huo Roufeng laughed out loud, and Cai Qinniang knelt down and kowtowed respectfully three times.
Huo Roufeng hurriedly asked Ji Bi to help her up, and moved the pestle for her to sit down.
Cai Qinniang sat down, but her eyes looked at the few girls serving in the room.
Huo Roufeng's heart moved, and asked Mobi to withdraw with someone.
There were only Huo Roufeng and Cai Qinniang in the room, Huo Roufeng asked, "You came to see me, not just to kowtow a few heads." ”
Cai Qinniang hurriedly said: "Let the ninth master guess correctly, I don't know if you still remember last spring, you asked Cai Qin to bring a message to the slave maid, and let the slave and maid pay attention to the merchant named Second Brother Zhang?" ”
