Chapter 138: The Book of Enlightenment
His wife has to do such a long confinement period, which makes Ming Qian very resentful, he comes to see the pearl every day, I wish she would be fine now, his daughter-in-law is so messed up, he feels that nothing is right, eating food that is not his daughter-in-law Zhang Luo's food, how wrong it tastes, this is just the beginning.
The "Qionglin Kindergarten" and the new "Three Character Classic" that Ming Qian asked people to print have been printed, and they are very well-made, and even the illustrations in them are very beautiful. Some of the most exquisite ones were printed, and the rest were sent to my hometown in Zhuozhou on ordinary paper. Some of the classmates I know in the south are some of them, and some of them are on the same list.
I don't want Lord Qin, that is, Lord Qin Hui, who is Ming Qian's master, to respect these two books very much, and even dedicated them to the emperor. The emperor was very happy and asked people to quickly popularize it, because the books that the imperial court had prevented from being published had not yet come out, so everyone was looking for a way to find Mingqian to see if he had it in his hand. Ming Qian really had a lot of money in his hands, so he gave these adults, and for a while Ming Qian was a good person.
Mingqian originally discussed with Pearl, planning to say that these books were written by others, but Pearl felt that since this era had not appeared in the past, it would not appear in the future, so Mingqian replaced him. It's a pity that Mingqian has his own arrogance and doesn't seem to do it, so in the end he had to say that someone else did it, and he found it. The emperor was very happy, and regarded it as his own political achievement, no matter what, he was the one who organized the printing, and since no one recognized it, it was naturally his credit.
Three days back, the three girls wore a big red ten kinds of brocade makeup and flower skirts, a red flower skirt, black hair curled into a wishful bun, and a gold pinched jade red gold double-headed Qu Feng Bu shook on her head. Decorated with thin silver silk beaded tassels, there is also a folded silk silk weaving palace flower on the head. The face is thinly powdered, and in addition, he only wears a pair of large bracelets with filigree inlays on his arms. He wore a sapphire and diamond ring on his finger, and his ten fingers were slender, like a jade man.
Sanniu's face was crimson, and when she saw her parents, she ran to Pearl's room alone, leaving Qi Liang, who was blushing, to face everyone in the Yue family.
"Why are you here?" Pearl was very surprised to see Sanniu, she didn't expect her to come so early,
"Let's take a look at the eldest sister." The three girls sat down with a red face. She rarely wears red on weekdays. Pearl also knew that bright colors were not for her, and all the fabrics given to her were light-colored.
Pearl looked at the third girl, found that her face was good, and asked with a smile. "But it's going well?" That's what it means. Do you have a cave room?
The third girl blushed and nodded. Pearl asked again. "How are your in-laws?"
"My in-laws are good to me, and they also let me teach my three sisters-in-law to do embroidery." Sanniu said a little shyly,
As soon as Pearl heard this. Reassured, he asked, "Your pamphlet ......?"
Sanniu hurriedly raised her head and said, "I'm hiding, my husband still has to study, don't ...... because of this matter"
Pearl smiled and said, "You should show it to him, you know, the pamphlet also said that a man can only marry at eighteen, and now that it is early, he should know moderation." Besides, although he is not in a hurry, you are almost eighteen, but you have to have a child. I'm almost the same for you, if you don't give birth to a child earlier, I'm afraid you won't be able to stand in your in-law's house! "Although helpless, we must also follow the law of this time,
Sanniu nodded in agreement, and said, "There are too many dowries, I have cleaned up for a long time, and now my mother-in-law knows that I like cooking, and she has built me a small kitchen alone." They love the meals and snacks I cook. ”
Pearl was relieved, but still reminded, "Their house is different from ours, you just entered the door, look more, talk less, everything according to their habits." The taste of the family should also be remembered, and your three sisters-in-law, usually give gifts carefully, but you can't be too scattered, you know? ”
"Don't worry, eldest sister, I know how to do it."
After that, the two sisters talked about how to take care of the shop and Zhuangzi, although Sanniu had also been in contact with these things, but Pearl didn't say why, but now she has to explain it.
Before leaving, the third girl did not forget to thank the eldest sister again, this eldest sister is really good to Tai, you can see it from the dowry. The husband also once asked how their family was not a prominent family, how they could come up with so many dowries, not ordinary dowries, so many ebony, such exquisite jewelry and those precious fabrics, but ordinary people could not buy them if they wanted to. Not to mention anything else, the two streamers in the dowry are not good for the three sisters-in-law.
This is not much of a precious thing in the palace! There are also those exquisite porcelain, I heard that it is also specially designed to be burned, and there are many calligraphy and painting antiques that show the family heritage, as well as coral tree bonsai, jade screens, jade and gemstone ornaments. Isn't the inkstone of the dowry a thousand gold all good things?
Sanniu told her husband that the eldest sister's soap factory is very profitable, and Zhuangzi has good experience, and many things have been prepared since a few years ago, not to mention that their dock in Zhuozhou is still quite prosperous.
Now the Qi family is very satisfied with the three girls, with a lot of dowry, confidence, humility and virtuousness, and good looks, aren't they very satisfied! Even the Qi family couldn't stop praising others. Of course, the most important thing is that the third girl has to give birth to a son.
The youngest son's washing three still have to be done, there are a lot of people who come to drink today, and Pearl also deliberately bought good wine, so that people can make distilled liquor on the Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing, and the loss is not counted, but a lot of champion red is buried for his son.
Today's banquet also specially invited the shopkeeper Qi from Zhuozhou to come, and asked their master to make a Buddha jumping over the wall as a table pressing dish. The wine was brought by Ming Qian from the wine cellar, and the male guests had white wine, and the female guests drank fruit wine. Give the kids juice. I heard that General Yue Lao and General Xia Yumin also came in person, and there were many people in the army who came with them, not Mingqian's face, but their family's good wine was famous, and later the emperor in the palace also came to have fun, Mingqian couldn't, and sent ten jars of all kinds of good wine, so that the gift-giving attendant was sent away, and their children also got a golden lock personally rewarded by the saint, so that Pearl had a toothache, and the emperor really slammed the door.
Buddha jumped over the wall and hit it out, and the shopkeeper Qi was very happy and planned to open a branch in the capital. Pearl also got tonic such as bird's nest, red ginseng and deer placenta paste sent by the shopkeeper Qi, and Pearl drank bird's nest every day, but he lost a lot of money.
Now that Pearl is in confinement, all the things at home have been handed over to Ming Zhen'er, and Yu'er doesn't look small, but also learns. Especially for how to train the subordinates, it is slowly becoming a little imposing. Pearl is not here, it is Ming Zhen'er who teaches Yu'er and Zhu'er, and her little aunt is still very beautiful. Huairen and his nephew Bai Jishi also learned very well.
The mother's family is going back, this time Liu Tonghammer and his wife are also going back with Old Man Liu, and the second girl is also leaving, and there are a lot of things at home, especially the food over there is going to be collected. This time, the people of the Liu family also took away the subordinates who were waiting for them, and there was a big girl and a little girl next to the old man Liu, followed by a little girl who went out to serve. Liu Tonghammer and his wife are paired with two girls, two housekeepers, and the husband of the mother-in-law who helps to go out on errands, and the son and daughter around him happen to be little girls and little girls. The second girl brought back a big girl.
The mother's family is leaving, in addition to sending all kinds of gifts, Beijing specialties, but also to the in-laws of the people to carry a letter, before the production, pearls received a letter from the Shen family, the family is now very peaceful, Xiao Wang is now very low-key, although Ming and occasionally go to her, but the son is heart, to see every day. Pearl sent a reply letter, telling the Shen family and the people of the Ming family that Ming Zhen'er, Yu'er and Zhu'er were doing well, and their children were all fine.
Recently, Wang Liu's family has not come much, probably because he prepared a dowry for Sanniu this time to show his wealth, but there is no way, he doesn't spend money, and it is a matter of keeping too much.
There are a lot of three girls who come to add makeup, this is all a pearl's favor, and when they give birth to a son, they receive more gifts, and Ming Zhen'er remembers them. Now this little apprentice of mine is at the top. Now Mingqian has taken over the matter of educating his two sons, Pearl doesn't know what's wrong with Mingqian, and he is even a little excited about teaching his son, and this night, Mingqian came back and talked to Pearl through the screen,
"Madame, how are you doing today?"
Pearl smiled and said, "I'm fine, the third child ate a lot today, and played with me for a while!" ”
The child is still young, most of the time he falls asleep, Ming Qian heard this, and said with a smile, "This kid is also smart." I just don't know how to compare with his two older brothers. ”
It's funny when Pearl hears this! Hurriedly asked, "Do you now find that our son is smart?" ”
Mingqian was happy to discuss this issue with Pearl, and said, "Madame doesn't know, I specially inquired about my colleagues' families with children, and asked them, it turns out that their children are not as smart as Huairen at the age of four, and now Huairen reads so many books, almost eight or nine years old children learned." Huaiyi is also good, now I can recite the "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names" and "Qionglin Kindergarten", and I know more than 100 words, my two sons are really with me, and they will be better educated in the future, and they will definitely be better than me. ”
Pearl:...... You are already the champion, or you became the champion at a young age, how much better can your son be than you?
"I wish I could be smarter too, I've been listening to many more hours, and big is not necessarily a good example."
Ming Qian also said, "Madame, don't worry, my son, must be strictly educated and supervised, and nothing like that will happen." ”
There are two husband and wife, one wants to give his son more homework and teach more, and the other is thinking about how to develop his son's intelligence, I don't know what the sons think, the days of dire water have begun! (To be continued......)
