012 Cheng'an Hou Mansion

"Is Sister Zhu's day set?" Du Mingyan tried her best to hide the jealousy in her heart, and a smile appeared on her face.

"The capital has just settled down, and the Queen Mother has not yet arrived in Beijing! This wedding date is naturally to wait for the New Year. The eldest lady smiled, "Don't worry, you sisters, I'll take you out to meet people at the Spring Festival banquet for the New Year, and I'll set a good home for you!" ”

Du Mingxin pursed his lips and smiled, which could be regarded as a response to the kindness of the eldest lady.

"Sister Xin'er is really a good character, and your mother's gentle appearance back then was really carved out of the same mold!" The eldest lady moved to Du Mingxin's side, took her hand, and said with a smile, "It's a pity that it's our own daughter, and I can't stay at home if I want to!" ”

Du Mingxin glanced at Mrs. Du and saw that she was just muttering and smoking a hookah, and she didn't react to the eldest lady's mention of Shen.

At one time, the eldest lord brought the second master and his son Du Kai over, and the family divided a table for men and a table for women, and had a family banquet across the screen.

After the banquet, the eldest lady smiled and ordered: "Mingzhu, you take Sister Xin to Xuanzhi Courtyard." She turned her head to Du Mingxin and said, "The new house was personally arranged by me and your sister-in-law, if you don't like anything or want to add something, don't hide it in your heart, just send someone to say it." ”

Du Mingxin smiled and saluted and thanked him, but Du Mingyan didn't hear the arrangement for herself, so she couldn't help but coquettishly say: "The eldest aunt is eccentric!" You haven't said anything about where I live for a long time! ”

Seeing that her mother-in-law was silent, Lu hurriedly smiled and said: "The capital is not as good as my hometown, and there are not many free yards, so I wronged Sister Yan and Sister Shu to live in Luxiang Courtyard with Sister Jing." ”

Du Mingyan became angry when she heard it, Du Mingxin lived in a yard by herself, and asked her to squeeze a yard with the other two, and the three concubines would make a bunch?

Anyway, she still knows how to beg for good words: "Auntie, there are three of us living in Luxiang Courtyard, and each of us has a maid and a wife, but I'm afraid I can't live there, right?" Why don't I go talk to ......."

Lu Shi pulled her out with a smile and said, "Sister Yan is too worried!" There is a row of back cover rooms at the back of the yard, and no matter how many people are serving around you, you can live there! Let's go with my sister-in-law and have a look, I also decorated the house myself! ”

Du Mingyan stood on tiptoe to look at his father, and found that he was getting together with his eldest uncle, whispering something, ignoring the movement here, and couldn't help but fall to his feet secretly. The capital is not good at all! When you get here, don't say that it's going to be as windy as in Kaifeng Mansion, but there is no one to support you!

Du Mingxin followed behind Du Mingzhu and slowly walked towards Xuanzhi Courtyard. The two were silent along the way.

When they arrived at Xuanzhi Courtyard, Du Mingzhu said, "Sister settled earlier", and took people away.

"Girl," said the eldest maid beside her, hesitantly, "Mrs. told you to be so angry with some sweet-hearted girls, are you a little cold?" ”

Du Mingzhu pursed her lips and said, "I don't know what my mother thinks is good about her!" Growing up in the countryside since childhood, a rustic atmosphere! Looking at the way the second uncle used to the concubine in his family, he knew that there were no rules in the family. What do I do with her? ”

The more she talked, the more angry she became, she stretched out her hand and hit the branch sticking out of front of her, and said indignantly: "It's okay if she doesn't come, but when she comes, she will become the eldest daughter of Du Mansion!" It's really hateful! ”

"But," said the maid embarrassed, "the slave maid heard that Miss Xin had a marriage to the Hou Mansion of Cheng'an. It is for this reason that Mrs. Xu is so kind to her. ”

"Hey," Du Mingzhu sneered, "I decided to be a family member before we were weaned, and I don't know if the Hou Mansion still recognizes it!" Even if Hou Fu is willing to marry a village girl like her, does she dare to marry someone like Anhou? ”

The maid Nuo said yes, but she was very disapproving. Don't talk about it, just say that the heart girl's action is only stronger than her own master, and there is no trace of nostalgia!

After everyone in the main house dispersed, the eldest master invited the second master to the study to drink tea. After a while, the eldest lady came in with a few more refreshments.

"The second brother tasted it, it was all dim sum in Beijing. You've been away for a long time, and you don't know if you want to smell like this? ”

The second master hurriedly got up and thanked him: "Sister-in-law Lao is bothered." I don't have a head in charge of my family, and the three girls still have to rely on my sister-in-law to arrange it. ”

"It's all a family, how can you say such a thing?" The eldest lady smiled and put down the refreshments and sat down beside the eldest lady.

"Since you brought this up, I have something to tell you." The eldest man put down the teacup and said slowly, "Although Sister Yan'er is older, she and Sister Xin'er are only a month older, and they are concubines." If you want me to say that you should arrange your sister first......"

The second master has not had any opinions since he was a child, even when he was a child, he followed his brother when he picked up a bird's nest and threw cannons, and at this time, naturally what his brother said was what it was. "It's just ......," he muttered, "Sister Xin'er is a little troublesome, and she is also married." In the past, when the Shen family was there, she was appointed as the son of the Anhou Mansion......"

"That Lin Lang is now a popular man in front of the emperor, and he has newly inherited the title of Marquis Cheng'an." The eldest lord lowered his voice and said, "Although the emperor did not touch the Youjue family of the previous dynasty, he has changed the Liujue. In the past, the hereditary was changed to five generations, and the rest were only inherited for three generations. He is the only family, and he is still hereditary. ”

The second master's heart jumped suddenly, so the Shen family chose a good son-in-law for him?

The eldest lord and the eldest lady glanced at each other, knowing that the second lord was moved by the wealth of Cheng'anhou Mansion, so he began to take fierce medicine: "But do you know why only his family is hereditary?" ”

The second old man shook his head, he had been away from the capital for ten years, and the eldest brother had never handed him these news, how could he know?

"When the emperor was about to attack the capital, Lin Lang got on the line with the emperor." The eldest lord's voice was almost inaudible, "At that time, Lin Lang bought off the people who guarded the west city gate in the Beijing camp, and he himself guarded the imperial city and regarded the palace to death. When the capital city was broken, he went to the inner palace and killed Emperor Changqing with an arrow, and cut off his head with another knife and dedicated it to Chen, ah no, look at my mouth! The eldest lord slapped himself, and then said, "I personally dedicated the head of Emperor Changqing to the emperor of our Great Yan Dynasty." ”

The second master looked at the eldest brother in surprise, and forgot to put the teacup to his mouth.

"Second brother," the eldest lady gently persuaded, "do you dare to ask for such a son-in-law who betrays virtue and ruthlessness?" For the sake of wealth, he can do anything! ”

The second old man couldn't speak, but he kept thinking about a young man holding a bloody head, and the picture was too terrifying.

"Living with such a ruthless person, didn't you push your heart sister to the tip of the knife?" The eldest lady continued, "Sister Xin'er is so good now, go back and choose a good family, you have a quick son-in-law, and you can take care of each other in your career." It's good that people like this in the past, looking at the flowers outside, don't you know that if the little couple is talking about it, maybe they will die! ”
