"What's going on with the yard? Tell me, what's going on in that yard? Huang Jingjie has accompanied him since he was a child, and he was naturally familiar with his temper, and looked at him indifferently: "When this picture was sent, Director Li specially explained it carefully, saying that this mansion was originally repaired by Prince Kang to the old concubine Yuan for the elderly, and the garden was excellent, but the layout everywhere did not meet the rules of the prince's mansion. It was originally the external steward of the house and the account room, Director Li let people knock down and rebuild it, and expanded the southwest corner into it, and opened the side door to the outside of the house, saying that it was the outer study, in fact, it was reserved for you to see people in the future, after the courtyard of the outer study, along the west wall to the middle line of the house, Director Li let people separate the size of seven or eight small courtyards, ready for the Qing guests to use, and then when it comes to this inner study, the inner study is the most important place, when Director Li took it, prepared several places to choose from, but Director Li was right, The inner study is safe, if you want to be safe, which place can be as good as it is now? ā
Huang Jingjie's explanation was meticulous and thoughtful, and the anger of the five princes fell little by little, it turned out that it was his inner study, and it was also, in his mansion, as long as it could be stuffed in, who wouldn't either try to find a way or stuff it in one by two? When the house is opened, it will be the monster puja, so she also thought of this, so that people can connect their study and the main courtyard together, which is not only not obvious, but also can see what should be seen.

The fifth prince is in a better mood, but he is so unclear and uncomfortable, how does Huang Jingjie's explanation sound reasonable, but he always feels that something is wrong, or it makes people uncomfortable, the fifth prince remembered the two sentences she asked people to pass on a while ago, Li Xiaozu's matter is just that, she doesn't say that he also knows, but how did she know that Leng Mingsong fell in love with the second lady of the Lin family? I heard that she had discussed marriage with the Leng family in the past, and the fifth prince felt awkward for a while. ćć
Huang Jingjie saw that the five princes' hearts were gradually calming down, but they still looked awkward, sighed, and persuaded bitterly: "This mansion has been repaired for half a year, and Master Li has sent hundreds of drawings before and after, have you seen one?" Not to mention anything else, that is, the curtains to be used everywhere, there is such a thick booklet, which place should be equipped with what kind of curtain, what color to use, almost every page has eyebrow criticism, how much effort does it take, how much thought? Besides, people still have to prepare a dowry, is it possible that you don't care about it, and you don't allow others to take care of it? What kind of reason is this? ā
It should be the five princes who are at odds with each other, but the five princes' hearts are awkward, they just can't fade away, and after a long time, they 'hum' and said: "Women's four virtues, which one makes her come out of this and cares about this matter?" Huang Jingjie looked at him speechlessly, stopped talking, didn't he know that his daughter-in-law was a little different from other little ladies?!
At the beginning of October, the shopkeepers who undertook various items arrived in the capital one after another with Li Tian's dowry, and the furniture to be used in various parts of the new house also began to be finished.
Li Tian, Shui Qiu Niang, and Yue Niang checked all kinds of valuable ornaments sent in the warehouse, Shui Qiu Niang tapped a pair of glass vases more than two feet high with her fingers, and looked at them carefully: "This pair of vases is almost transparent, exquisite workmanship, and so tall, I have seen a pair of similar ones in Fushou Palace."
Yue Niang hurriedly leaned over, looked around and said, "I just think this is all useless things, Fushou Palace?" Where is Ye Guifei? ā
How can she live in Fushou Palace, Fushou Palace has always been a place for the Queen Mother, and now Shui Qiuniang explained casually, Yue Niang flicked the vase and said: "This thing is in the Queen Mother's Palace?" Fifth sister, you take this in the dowry, it's too ostentatious, right? Speaking of which, I was about to ask you, look at your dowry, even if the queen is married, you are not as rich as you, haven't you always wanted something low-key and low-key, what is wrong this time? Look at the room full of glitter! ā
In the past, you had to keep a low profile and not show too much wealth, but now it is different Li Tian shook the ruby on the jade bonsai with his fingers, Shui Qiuniang looked at Yue Niang and said with a smile: "Now that the trouble is not on the outside but on the inside, we have to tell the world how much dowry the fifth sister has, and now it is safer to put this money in the open, besides, the royal family has taken a fancy to the fifth sister, if we can find a suitable reason for everyone, it can also save them from guessing indiscriminately, guessing too much, maybe there will be some trouble, after all, we can take care of the limited place."
Yue Niang was confused when she heard this, Li Tian sighed and said: "I married the prince, who else in this world dares to make up his mind to take the silver from me?" Those who dare to make up their minds are all in the circle where they want to recognize their relatives
"That's true, but I think you're thinking too much, that's an official family, rich all over the world, that's what you said, right? All the silver in the world is his, and he still cares about your big bit of silver? ā
"The official family naturally doesn't care, I'm afraid that someone else cares, this one is secondary, the most important thing is so bright, those who can't figure out how the official family can give this marriage like us, they all think about it, save us from being invincible, Qiu Niang explained, Yue Niang frowned and let go: "I don't think the fifth master is like that kind of person, the Huang family has silver, but also, the Huang family's silver is the Huang family's, the fifth sister's silver is the fifth sister's, just talk about this one, he is not as good as our fifth sister, you say, How happy did the fifth master have to be when he saw that our fifth sister actually had so much dowry? It's really cheap, Yue Niang's thoughts happily jumped to what she was more interested in. ()
Shui Qiuniang shook her head with a smile, turned her head to look at Li Tian and said, "When are you going to ask people to find the shopkeeper of Huang Da to talk about Sanli City?" ā
"Tomorrow, it's too early, I'm afraid they'll think too much, and if it's too late, I'm afraid they'll be embarrassed if they don't have time to prepare, let's make friends with the Huang family best, even if we can't make friends, we can't make friends Li Tian bent down and looked at the old bronze tripod carefully, and replied: "This tripod is put behind the screen of the weeping flower door to smoke incense."
Well, it is very good with that screen, Shui Qiu Niang carefully looked at the old bronze tripod and agreed, Yue Niang yawned, kicked the bronze tripod with her foot and said: "This thing is so old, even if it is placed here, it is also a valuable thing?" ā
It is worth more than that pot of gems and bonsai Li Tian replied casually, Yue Niang stared around the old ding, shook her head and sighed, this broken thing, I don't want to give it to her for nothing.
Early the next morning, Shopkeeper Wang arrived at Qingfeng Building, Shopkeeper Min hurriedly greeted him, and said with a smile: "You haven't been here for a while, are you looking for me, or are you looking for our shopkeeper?" ā
"I'm here to find the big shopkeeper today, is the big shopkeeper here?" The shopkeeper smiled politely and humbly as before, and the shopkeeper Min smiled: "Unfortunately, the shopkeeper hasn't been here for two days, you go home to find him, go forward, after Dongdazhi Street, the first alley is, you wait, I will call a little guy to take you to the shopkeeper Wang's smile, he has to pass on today's words."
Huang Jingjie politely sent the shopkeeper Wang to the door of the main hall, watched the shopkeeper Wang walk away, a smile gradually appeared in his eyes, he breathed a sigh of relief, turned around through the moon gate with his hands behind his back, and went into the main courtyard.
Huang Jingjie's wife, Le Si Grandma and her daughter Huang Jin'an, were embarrassed by the treasure of the kang full of pearls and jade, and when Huang Jingjie came in, Le Si Grandma pointed to four or five piles of beads and inkstones along the side of the kang and said: "I picked these, although they are not brilliant, so as not to make mistakes, can you see if it works?" ā
"Don't pick," Huang Jingjie sat on the armchair in front of the kang, motioned to his daughter to pour a cup of tea for herself, stretched her arms and smiled: "Send these things to the fifth brother's house, and ask the fifth brother's daughter-in-law to help choose the return gift."
"Huh?" Grandma Le Si looked at Huang Jingjie in surprise, Huang Jingjie waved her daughter and said, "Jin'er go back first, Huang Jin'an knew that his father was going to talk to his mother, so he was very well-behaved and retreated."
"Just now it was the big steward in the hands of the fourth brother and daughter-in-law, and there was nothing to do, just come over and say, saying that from the day before the dowry, the shops that the fourth brother and daughter-in-law married are these few in the capital, one is ready to sell and half give, and the other is to send auspicious things at the door of each shop, saying that it is a little lady and a little daughter-in-law with a fresh palace flower, and a young person is born with a head, and the child sends a tiger head hat, and the old man has a bottle of wine, a bag of snacks, and a string of green money
Huang Jingjie chattered very carefully, Grandma Le Si looked at him puzzled, Huang Jingjie drank the tea in the cup, and then explained with a smile: "This is the matter of the fourth brother and daughter-in-law, it stands to reason that the fourth brother and the fourth brother's daughter-in-law are related to the royal family and the Li family, what does it matter to us?" What are our identities? How can people ignore us? But the fourth brother's daughter-in-law specially asked the shopkeeper Wang to come to the door to say this hello to us, this is to have us in my heart, alas! Huang Jingjie sighed with satisfaction: "I just think that this Li Niangzi is a very sensible and rare person, the fourth brother can have such a daughter-in-law, and we have nothing to explain to the family."
Hearing Huang Jingjie say this, Grandma Le Si breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "Hearing you say this, my heart has finally fallen back a little, the second master of the family will arrive the day after tomorrow, and my heart has been hanging for several days."
"Don't worry, now it's no bigger than before, the fifth master is older, who dares to underestimate him for a penny and a half? In the past few years, how many benefits have the family received from the fifth master, openly and secretly? Up and down, who dares to upset him? The fifth master didn't speak, no one could do anything to me, it's okay Seeing that Huang Jingjie was so determined, the fourth grandmother felt a lot more settled, and said with a relieved smile: "Actually, it's not that I don't want to go back, I've lived in the capital for so many years, and when I think of going back, I'm really a little timid."
