Mr. Zhang has a lot of money in office, Mrs. Zhang also has a lot of private savings, Zhang Siyun was a thousand pets when she was a daughter at home, and she used to eat a pinch, and she was also rich in marriage, and there was no shortage of money. It's just that you can't enjoy it wantonly while you keep your money, which is also a kind of torment.

The Fang family eats a lot, but the income is limited, so the food in the big kitchen is not abundant, except for the old lady's dishes, there is a bird's nest in three days, and even the wife's dishes are full of meat foam, not to mention their young grandmothers. It is also said that green vegetables and tofu are the most nourishing, and they eat more vegetarian and pure. From time to time, the gentlemen can still eat wine outside, and the women in the house are miserable.

Zhang Siyun wants to add a dish at his own expense, someone must come out and say that his brother and daughter-in-law are Lingxiu women from the south of the Yangtze River, and those who marry into their family and eat bran vegetables suffer, this can't be swallowed. When their young couple first got married, they inevitably became more affectionate a few times, and when they asked their mother-in-law to say goodbye in the morning, they were squeezed by the concubine who seemed to be smiling, and knew that he was being heard about in the corner, Zhang Siyun was angry and ashamed, and cried a few times.

The house is so small that there is nothing to be done, and the mother-in-law and mother-in-law have their turn to move out as grandchildren. In the future, she couldn't help but have some prevarication in this matter, and refused a few more times to dislike her husband, sneering that she was the daughter of an official family and didn't dare to climb high, and then touched a second-class girl and fell asleep. Zhang Siyun was so angry that his chest hurt and wept, but in the end, he had to cheer up and flatter the man. This is the disadvantage of marrying far away, and there are no relatives around to solve your worries.

This time I came back to exaggerate a little, Zhang Siyun felt that it was nothing more than being released from the prison, and she was breathing more freely. When I got home, I first ate a bowl full of fried eel noodles and then fell asleep, woke up and shouted that I wanted to eat chicken and goose, which made Mrs. Zhang feel distressed and said: "My son, what is so delicious about this kind of stupid meat, wait for the kitchen to make crabs for you, make steamed lion's head, and make cabbage in soup." ”

Zhang Siyun was about to drool when he heard this, and said while telling Mrs. Zhang to hurry up and ask someone to do it: "First put a white chopped chicken and a hibiscus duck to relieve your hunger." ”

Mrs. Zhang's tears came out when she saw her like this, and she naturally complained to Master Zhang at night: "That Fang family is also a member of the court, how can the family behave like a broken family." It's a bitter cloud. ”

Master Zhang secretly regretted it since he knew that Lu Xiyue was in the middle of the month, he shouldn't have heard his old wife ruin this family, no wonder he said that his mother-in-law has long hair and short knowledge, and young people not only have to be talented, but the most important thing is this self-motivation. Although he looked down on the son-in-law in front of him, his daughter was married, and he couldn't take it back, so he had to say something comforting.

Master Zhang told his daughter to go to the second aunt to walk around, it would be better if she could live in the Lingering Garden, last year Duanhui eldest princess passed by Jiangnan and circled in the Lingering Garden for a few days, praising its elegance. The relatives of the eunuchs all raised their value by entering and leaving the garden.

Luo Fuzi was indifferent to himself, although he did not prohibit himself every time he came, he never opened his mouth to tell himself to rest. On the contrary, this little girl has been living in the Lingering Garden.

Especially when he saw the hibiscus peony pei on the wicker waist for the first time, Zhang Siyun was not very comfortable, and when he inquired clearly, this was the piece of jade pendant that Lu Xiyue gave him as a token at the beginning, and his heart was even more sour.

The girl from the small grocery store in front of her was just lucky, and she made a windfall with the help of her second aunt, and squeezed into the circle of the official lady. Where does she deserve Brother Lu's blue eyes?

When the list was released, the Zhang family noticed that Lu Xiyue was a fellow jinshi, and this position was very embarrassing, but Lu Xiyue was not yet twenty years old that year, and she was extremely talented with this position. According to the teacher's reading of the papers, the article is still good, but it lacks some heat, and it is a pity that if Lu Xiyue waits for a few years, he will definitely enter the hairpin.

At the beginning, the two families decided to marry Luo Bicheng, who was widowed not long after entering the door, Zhang Siyun and Lu Xiyue also met a few times when they were young, and they can be regarded as childhood sweethearts. And that year, Lu Xiyue came to Songning Mansion to ask for a meeting, Zhang Siyun hid behind the screen and peeked, only to see that the sixteen-year-old boy's family had undergone great changes and came from a long journey.

And once the Zhang family revealed that he didn't want to fulfill the contract, he got up and returned the token without saying a word, and left until he wanted to return his token without any nostalgia. The girl's psychology is so wonderful and contradictory, although she is faintly disgusted with the dilapidated of his family, but seeing such a beautiful young man in trouble, she has pity and a desire to take care of him; and hoped that he would retreat from the difficulties and let his family fall into a treacherous situation, which shows that he is not nostalgic and disappointed at all.

Fang Yan's character and skin can't be compared with Lu Xiyue. Fang Yan is a typical gentleman in the capital, with pale and weak as the beauty, martial arts as a horse and cockfight, Wen Nai and Qinglou Hongqi poems and texts answer each other, and there is no title to inherit and no ambition and strength to test fame. Compared with Zhang Siyun, the eldest son of the other party became more and more confused, and even the Fang family couldn't look down on it.

Lu Xiyue followed Yan Hou to get a real shortage, face to face, and did a good job in Southeast Road, which made Master Zhang even more regretful, and couldn't help but complain that Mrs. Zhang let go of a good son-in-law and offended the second room.

Zhang Siyun is even more well-informed in the capital, and he is worried when he knows that Lu Xiyue has a good future. When I came back to see Wicker this time, I heard that Lu Xiyue had met the Liu family when she came out of her house and lived in her house for a few years; I also heard that Lu Xiyue came to greet the Liu family from time to time and brought some southern products, walking around as a serious relative, and caring for the wicker.

Zhang Siyun smiled every time she saw wicker, but generously said that she and Lu Xiyue had a marriage contract before, but unfortunately they had no fate; Talking about the interesting story of the two of them when they were children, Lu Xiyue stood in the garden stupidly all night so that she could see the first peach blossom in spring, until she was surprised to come and see after the branches bloomed in the early morning. If Lu Xiyue heard it herself, she would definitely reflect on whether I had done this. But Wicker believed it, and secretly envied and ashamed in his heart, it turned out that a noble and elegant lady like Sister Siyun was what Brother Lu loved in his heart.

Zhang Siyun made a casual look and glanced at the jade pendant on the wicker's waist, "Is this hibiscus peony jade pendant sister looking extremely ingenious?" In fact, there is also a reason for it, because I have a white complexion since I was a child, so I prefer mutton fat" said Zhang Siyun smiled slightly shyly, "On my twelfth birthday, Brother Lu asked his uncle to find a good jade in every possible way, and carved it into two jade pendants, one is a peony and the other is a hibiscus, because I love peonies in spring and hibiscus in autumn." Give it to me on my birthday, and I will hold one piece with him. Later, my piece of peony pei was accidentally broken, and brother Lu took his piece to the jade master Lu Guiyun to make a peony on the reverse side, and then gave it to me, so it became a double-sided pei. ”

Zhang Siyun held the cheeks with a hand like clotted fat, and sniffed a peach blossom with one hand, with some nostalgia and melancholy, and even with a slight mockery of the young man's infatuation in the past years, and shook his head: "But later, the two elders had a misunderstanding, and I had to return this jade pendant to him." He was very sad, and with tears in his eyes at my door, he said that if this hibiscus peony could not stay with me, it would be better to break things. Alas..."

She sighed meaningfully: "It's also a great pity for me, in the end, it's his heart." I was relieved to see this jade pendant given to my sister, and I was relieved of my guilt for him for a long time, and I always felt that I had failed him. This jade material is the best mutton fat, and it is carved by Master Lu, which is worth a thousand gold, and my sister has put it away. ”

Wicker lowered her head and rubbed this hibiscus peony pei, the warm feel seemed to be melting, she replied shyly and without any scheming: "This jade pendant is so important to Brother Yue, I think Brother Yue was also desperate to sell it, and I happened to meet my sister and was rescued." Brother Yue must not have wanted to see things and think about people, so he gave it to me when he looked sad. ”
