Chapter 10: Parting Thoughts (1)
The meeting between Su Su and Hong Sheng ended successfully, and they had a general understanding of each other and felt more compatible with each other.
Hong Sheng didn't need Su Su's signal, he handed over the small treasury brought to Beijing this time, but he was a little embarrassed and said: "When I returned to Beijing, I was in a hurry, many things were not easy to bring, and the silver money brought was almost spent, so much was left, the lady took it first, we had to set off back to the northwest before April, it was very difficult along the way, the lady prepared more things, and I will take things for some silver when I go back." ”
Su Su took the money box handed over by Hong Sheng, and there were two ingots of fifty taels of silver ingots, which were some scattered silver, which were less than twenty taels together.
Su Su looked at this bit of silver and was a little worried, the elders of Hongshan Village would return to Yangzhou tomorrow, and it would be impossible for them to ask people to return empty-handed.
She could have used the silver in the dowry first, but she was afraid that Hong Sheng would think too much. After thinking about it, he said: "Tomorrow, the village chief will go back to Yangzhou, what are you going to do?" ”
Hong Shengyuan saw that his daughter-in-law was silent, and he was also a little weak-hearted, after all, he had spent money and flowing water recently, and it wasn't until he saw the money box that he felt that it was a bit too embarrassing to have such a little belongings.
Now after listening to my daughter-in-law's words, my heart is relieved, and sure enough, my daughter-in-law is not the kind of person who hates the poor and loves the rich. "I gave the village chief 3,000 taels of silver, of which 500 taels were for the village to repair the ancestral hall and school, and the rest was asked by the village chief to help buy all the land, only as our family's sacrificial field, but I don't want the production in the past ten years, all of them will be given to the village, for the lonely, widowed, old, weak, sick and disabled to live."
Su Su breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then nodded and said, "The people in the village are kind to you, and these are all deserved." I should only prepare a generous gift for the clan elder and the village chief and his wife who came here, after all, people have delayed back and forth for three months for our family affairs, and we can't even catch up with spring sowing, so we can't be stingy. ”
Hong Sheng hurriedly got up and saluted Su Su, "I'm a rough person, and I'm still a lady, so please bother with it." ”
These things were supposed to be done by Su Su, the hostess, so she quickly asked someone to prepare a gift and send it to the elders of Hongshan Village.
After the village chief's daughter-in-law waited for the gift-giving maid to leave, she carefully touched a few luxurious satins on the table, lest her rough hands scratch the shiny satin. She didn't understand what the maid said about what kind of silk was used, and she didn't understand what she used to "use", but she still understood when she said that the emperor and the ladies used it, "My God, I have to offer it when I go home!" ”
The village chief of Hongshan Village was fiddling with a cigarette pouch pole and a jade cigarette holder, and next to it was a box of shredded tobacco, which was also sent by Su Su. Hearing this, she rolled her eyes, not wanting to deal with this "ignorant stupid woman", and the woman looked at these flashy things.
After thinking about it, the village chief shook his head, he couldn't say that, the silk used here was decent, and it was really there. "Look at that jewelry box, that's the real thing, the satin used on it is not uncommon in the official eunuchs' house, not to mention that Hong Sheng's daughter-in-law is still from Shun'anbo Mansion. This is just decent, and it is best to go back and marry a daughter-in-law and put it in the dowry or dowry. ”
Although the village chief's daughter-in-law didn't have much knowledge, but fortunately, she listened to her husband's words the most, and reluctantly took her eyes off the satin, opened the double-layer jewelry box with red paint inlaid with luodian flowers, and immediately took a breath, "I said, Hong Sheng's daughter-in-law is too generous!" ”
I saw that the top layer of the jewelry box is a set of eight pieces of gold, exquisite workmanship, chrysanthemum style, the most important thing is that the materials are full of red gold, and the weight is not light. The so-called eight pieces of gold are a pair of gold hairpins, a pair of bracelets, a pair of rings, and a pair of earrings. Ordinary people have a set of eight pieces of silver, which can be displayed, and it is said that it is full of red gold.
The village chief's daughter-in-law looked at the next floor, which contained a pair of butterfly hairpins inlaid with red gold and rubies, a pair of red gold lantern earrings, a pair of fine gold bracelets, and four delicate rings inlaid with pearls and gemstones, all of which were worn by young girls.
When the village chief's daughter-in-law thought about it, she knew that this was specially prepared by Hong Sheng's daughter-in-law who knew that there were two girls to be married in their family. This thoughtfulness really made her not know what to say.
The village chief of Hongshan Village naturally saw these things, although he was not as unproductive as her daughter-in-law, but he was also quite shocked. Although he had just received the three thousand taels of silver tickets from Hong Sheng before, it was not for him, he was just addicted, and now these are really for them.
Although they are not poor relatives who come to fight the autumn wind, they are really not very rich, and even the expenses for going to Beijing are all brought back by Hong Sheng.
The village chief thought for a while and said: "Put it away, these things are sold for three or four hundred taels of silver, but we need these silver, we keep this intention in our hearts, we don't have any big skills, and when we buy the sacrificial field, we will take care of it more." ”
Seeing that the daughter-in-law happily packed up the baggage, I didn't know if I didn't see it, when I came to the capital, it was just a small burden, only four or five days, and it turned into two big boxes of luggage.
"Don't go back and be foolish with the old ladies in the village, it's not easy for Hong Sheng to get to this point, let's not talk about how big a face he is, but we can't pull him back. Except for the few silk horses, the rest of these things were sold when they arrived in the county seat. ”
The village chief's daughter-in-law looked at the good-looking clothes and exquisite jewelry, and she was really reluctant in her heart, but she also knew that what the old man said was right, but she just nodded coyly, and the village chief saw the appearance of her daughter-in-law, and coughed uncomfortably, "The set of eight pieces of gold will be left, they are all full of red gold, and they can also be directly used as silver." ”
As soon as the village chief's daughter-in-law heard this, her mood was like hell and heaven, and her face turned from cloudy to sunny in an instant, "I must hide it well, no one will say it, and it will be regarded as our family's heirloom in the future, how do you say it?" Wealth is not exposed! ”
The village chief glanced at the capital since he called, and even learned the idiom, "Look at what you can get!" You pack up, I'll go to a few clan elders to have a look. ”
Su Su and Hong Sheng didn't know the conversation between the village chief and his wife. After lunch, the two came to the study, one said and the other wrote, all of which were things to be purchased before leaving.
In the northwest, the products are actually quite abundant. And because of the overland Silk Road, as far as Rome, the specialties of the countries of the Western Regions are gathered here.
Precious jewelry spices, exquisite jewelry fabrics, only you can't think of it, there is nothing that is not available here.
And what Su Su and they want to buy, part of it is the edible goods to be consumed on the road, and the other part is the exquisite things in the capital.
Su Su and Hong Sheng went to the northwest, and they didn't know when they would be able to come back, so they had to bring the dowry over.
The large pieces of furniture are just a matter of buying them in the northwest, but in addition, Su Su's things are not necessarily able to be pulled down even if they are ten carriages.
From the capital to the northwest, this road is not very peaceful, although Hong Sheng and several of them are elites in the army, but there is a way that "heroes can't stand up to many people", "ants can also bite elephants", it just so happens that Yang Wei Dart Bureau has a dart to go to the northwest, Hong Sheng took this line, and it is a win-win situation.
Since there is no need to march in a hurry, and there are people to escort you, if you don't bring some things back to the northwest to make a difference at this time, it is simply a lack of heart.
I didn't see Hong Sheng's brothers go out after breakfast, they were all picked up a little long ago and went to buy.
Buying goods doesn't have to be done by Su Su and Hong Sheng personally. Just leave it to the housekeeper.
Zhao Youyu was promoted to an official, and he became the steward of Hongfu from the head of Zhuangzi in the countryside, and it was the people who were in good spirits when they were happy, and they got this errand ordered by the master, so they didn't dare to delay a little, so they went to do it immediately.
Before Zhao Youyu left, Su Su took out two thousand taels of silver tickets from his private room and gave them to him, Hong Sheng didn't say anything when he saw it, but he went out for a while in the afternoon, and when he stayed in the evening, he took out five thousand taels of silver tickets and gave them to Su Su.
He didn't say where the money came from, and Su Su naturally didn't ask, and the husband and wife tacitly agreed. Who can Hong Sheng know in the capital? I think it's King Ke!
At night, Hong Sheng really kept his promise, that is, he went out to take a cold shower, and never touched Su Su, although Su Su was a little soft-hearted, but when he thought of his body, he hardened his heart again.
She is only fifteen years old now, and if she is pregnant, it will not only hurt her body, but also her child.
So she can only wait for her to concoct the least harmful contraceptive incense before she can call Hong Sheng "Night Sheng Song"? Hehe, it's really not good to play!
It's just that speaking of this contraceptive incense, Su Su is thinking about whether to tell Hong Sheng. It's just that in ancient times, there were more children at the age of fifteen, why couldn't I do it myself? Didn't make him think too much.
Su Su thought about it, forget it, let's make the contraceptive incense first.
On the third day, it was supposed to be returned. Only Su Su has no father and no mother, that is, he returned to the door, and there were only some subordinates in the family, so on that day, Su Su took Hong Sheng to the house where he got married, and then went directly to Shun'an Bo Mansion to meet the old lady.
When the two arrived at Shun An Bo Mansion, they were naturally warmly welcomed.
The people looked at Su Su, who was dressed in a big red dress and wore a five-tailed phoenix hairpin, and they were all impressed.
Especially the companion room brought by Mrs. Shizi in Qingfeng Xuan, I was already a little surprised to know that Su Su was so favored, but I didn't think that this creation was still to come, a maid turned out to be a four-grade flattering person.
If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Shizi still held the title of Mrs. Shun'an Bo Shizi's three-rank foreign wife, and in terms of her husband's official position, Mrs. Shizi would still be two levels behind.
Hong Sheng didn't stay in the inner courtyard for a long time, and after meeting the old lady with Su Su, he was accompanied by the prince to the outer courtyard
The old lady took Su Su's hand, and when she saw that her face was full of spring, and there was a smile between her eyebrows and eyes, she knew that she was doing well, and she felt a lot more relieved.
A few unmarried girls are not good at making fun of Su Su, but the poplars who came over to join in the fun will not stop, that is, Mrs. Shizi did her best to help organize the three baptism ceremonies when she gave birth, and she was a little more sincere to Su Su. This time I also hugged the little lady who had just passed a hundred days to Su Su to say hello.
Since Hong Sheng gave the dowry, Su Su has not been able to go out again, and he has not been to the Song family for two months, and the children are the same every day.
Su Su carefully took the white and fat little man like glutinous rice dumplings from the hands of Mrs. Shizi, and saw that the villain was happy at Su Sule, Su Su smiled at the old lady: "Old lady, look, the little lady still remembers me!" ”
At the beginning, Su Suke and the old lady saw the little baby who had just been born, and in the blink of an eye, he was holding his hands heavily. There are all the points of both parents between the eyebrows and eyes, and it can be seen that it is a beautiful embryo at such a young age.
The old lady and the lady of the world glanced at each other, and they were both a little crying and laughing, where did such a young child know anyone.
Yang Liu smiled: "The little lady is a good woman, and she was born with a smile on her face." ”
Su Suke didn't care about this, he felt that he had a fate with this child, handed the child to the nurse, thought about it, took off a jade lock from the collar he wore around his neck, handed it to Mrs. Shizi and said: "I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for the little lady's weekly gift, this is my first birthday gift to the little lady." ”
But in the end, he wore it himself, Su Su was afraid that Mrs. Shizi would dislike it, so he said: "Don't dislike it, only this one was carved by me." ”
Those present are not uninformed, only to see that the jade lock is the material of the best Hetian jade, but the most unusual thing is that this jade is an extremely rare smoke purple in Hetian jade.
The auspicious cloud-shaped jade lock is only embossed with five wings connected to form a circle of bats, and the circle is only carved with an inverted "Fu" character, which means "Fu has arrived", which is simple but vivid.
On the other side of the jade lock is the engraved "happy eyebrows", which can carve such a picture on a small jade lock, and it is also extraordinary.
Su Su gave her belongings to the little lady of the Song family, which was an expression of closeness, not to mention that this thing was very valuable. The best Hetian jade is not unusual, but such a rare color is rare, and it is not in the dowry of Mrs. Shizi.
I heard Su Su say "don't dislike it", just because the preciousness is not easy to accept, and I can't say I don't want it at this time, Zhao Lanzhi took it with a smile and said with a smile: "Such a rare object, since you are willing to give it to her, I am the only one who loves my daughter more, where will I say no." ”
These words only made everyone laugh, and the sixth girl took Su Su's hand and pretended to be sad, "Good sister, you really have a new person and forget the old one, as soon as you have a little niece, we have all become burnt rolls, and we don't like it anymore." ”
Everyone who was smiling was stunned, looking at the little girl who was only eleven or twelve years old and said that she was an "old person" and "burnt rolls", she only felt that she couldn't cry or laugh, the old lady pointed at her, and scolded with a smile: "What messy books have you read again, I think you are really itchy." ”
It's not the first time that a good atmosphere has been made into a funny conference by the six girls, and everyone is happy, but the six girls are not children in the end, the old lady secretly gave her granddaughter-in-law a look, Zhao Lanzhi nodded, this scene was seen by Su Su, Su Su thought about it, and could already foresee the miserable life of the six girls in the future.
