Chapter 202: Horse Racing

originally thought that when he saw Pearl when he saw off his relatives, he could even talk to her, but Pearl was wearing a hat at the time, and he went back after a while, and Mingqian's heart was even more sour at this time.

Pearl now takes the children to study and embroider during the day, and when the weather is good, they go to the Zhuangzi to play, at this time the osmanthus blooms, and the pearl spreads a carpet on the ground and has a picnic with the children. Now the body has long been better, but the changes in the children make Pearl very worried, especially the boys, if there is no teaching from the male elders in the process of growing up, it is very not optimistic.

On this day, it happened that Sanniu came to a letter, there was a Jinshi in the clan, because of old age and poor health, resigned at home, but the livelihood was difficult, all the Qi family invited to their children to do enlightenment, in fact, Sanniu's two sons just spoke back, obviously prepared first. The third girl asked the Qi family, and wanted the three nephews to come over to study, of course, there are also the two nephews of the second sister's family, and the second girl has now given birth to the third child, and all the two eldest children can't take care of them.

Qi's temperament is very good, plus pearls have always been good at life, and during the New Year's holidays, gifts for Qi's are the most lovely. And the things sent are not to mention, there are many rare books, copied and sent over, knowing that she believes in Buddhism, she actually sent a string of Buddha prayer beads carved from golden silk nanmu, and invited the most virtuous master of the pure space in the world to worship seven hundred and forty-nine days in front of the Buddha's relics, and sent it to her. With this rosary, Qi's sleep is fragrant, and the Heart Sutra is also peaceful. Let's talk about it more cheesy, people sent their children, which will definitely not cost their family a penny, and now their daughters are older. She was busy embroidering dowries, but she was idle. It's just right to have a child.

Naturally, there will be no mistakes in doing things, and the yard will be cleaned up. Everything you need is ready. The pearl side is even more well prepared, and the bundles for the teacher are ready, and even the second girl's share is ready. Although Erniu's family is not very wealthy, as Bai Sixian's official becomes bigger and bigger, this benefit will naturally increase, and for her sister, Pearl has always been generous, three sisters. It's cheesy to talk about money. But if you have it, except for your children and husband, you can definitely communicate with each other.

This time, too, the second girl didn't go at all. Just give the child to the pearl and you'll be fine. Pearls clean up. I took the child to the capital. Of course, he also told Ming Qian, as for whether he was against it. Then it's in the pearl category.

When I arrived at Qi's house, Pearl met Qi's family, gave gifts, and joked again, the eldest daughter was already married, Pearl also gave a set of jewelry as makeup, and two daughters, it's almost over! Pearl also sent two screens, both of which are big pictures, this is not just a matter of money, but how many people envy the screens of the three girls at that time! This is something that money can't buy.

The double-sided embroidery that the pearl gave to Ming Zhen'er is the same, but the two pearls like the work, and now she embroiders the beauty picture again, this time planning to embroider a shocking one. It's now halfway through the space.

Pearl didn't see Mr., but I heard Qi say that Mr. Qi Rong liked the calligraphy and ancient paintings sent by Pearl very much! It's just a joy to go crazy. And the sons came back and said that the husband taught very well, was also very kind, and had a wide range of knowledge. The two nephews also like Mr. very much, and since this is the case, Pearl is also relieved.

After that, he brought gifts to the Yongchang Marquis Mansion to meet the old lady and the third lady of their family.

"You can be regarded as here, I have already heard that you have arrived in the capital." Mrs. Chen said,

Pearl sat down next to the old lady with a smile and said, "I found a husband for the children, and they all sent them to my little sister-in-law's house. ”

The two women were talking, and it didn't take long for Zhen'er to come, the girls in the house saluted Zhen'er, and Pearl looked at her apprentice, with a green emerald cigarette shirt, a pleated skirt with scattered flowers and water mist and green grass, and a thin veil of emerald water. Coquettish and boneless, her face is flushed, her eyes are shining, and she exudes the smell of a mature woman all over her body, it seems that the third master treats her well.

Ming Zhen'er first saluted the old lady, and then saluted the pearl, this salute, the pearl can afford it, smiled and helped Zhen'er, and said, "It seems that you are doing well!" ”

The old lady smiled and said, "Not bad!" The third child treated her as a treasure, went home after getting off the ya, and stuck together all day long, knowing that Zhen'er, a girl who loves to eat apples, actually let people come all the way to transport two baskets, and specially invited the cook of Zhuozhou, saying that she was afraid that her daughter-in-law would not be used to it! ”

"I'm too spoiled by her." Pearl was absolutely relieved when she heard this, Ming Zhen'er sat down, the third girl was a year older than Zhen'er at the time! At this time, he also personally served tea to his mother, and seeing that Ming Zhen'er accepted it calmly, he also understood in his heart that this Zhen'er really took the third master.

"Why didn't you see the eldest lady?"

"She's been sick for almost half a year, and she's not getting better." Chan said,

"Then I'll take a look!" Pearl was about to get up as she spoke, but the old lady stopped her, and Zhen'er also gave her a sneaky look, afraid that there was a problem, so she didn't ask more.

The old lady smiled and said to Pearl, "The children you taught are really good, they take care of the house in an orderly manner, and it is rare that they are also versatile, and they can even have a few tricks with the third child!" I heard that you also gave her a good horse to marry! The third child is worried! ”

"Didn't Zhen'er give it?" Then he turned to the old lady and said, "I gave two horses at that time." ”

"I don't care about the two of them, don't worry about it, let the three monkeys go in a hurry!"

The crowd laughed. Coming here, Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing is also going to go over to have a look, since the horse is mentioned, Pearl has made an appointment with Zhen'er, and the two of them are going to go hunting together!

Waiting for the pearl to come out of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, the mood is also good, at the beginning asked Zhen'er not to take over the housekeeper's rights, but now it seems that she has to take it! Looking at Hou Ying and Hou Yin's attitude, they were obviously also shocked, this time they heard that Zhen'er was going to go hunting on horseback with Pearl, and they were very envious!

On this day, Pearl put on a green riding costume, and her hair was kept with a scarf of the same color, and a pair of twelve silver-gilt magnolia-shaped long silver hairpins were inserted, but there was no way, the hair was too long. The horse I rode today was a jujube red sweat and blood horse, tall and strong, very powerful, and brought four Tibetan mastiffs out, this time the pearl got the dogs and eagles in the space out, and put them in the space at night. In just a few months, he has grown into a big dog. Especially Caucasian dogs, they are about to catch up with the foal, who is not afraid to see it! In the space, she is used to chasing those cattle and sheep, and she is as fierce as the Tibetan mastiff, but what she likes most is that they are very obedient, and she likes the big and fat dogs the most.

The dark purple riding outfit that Zhen'er wore today, with a gauze scarf wrapped around her head, was the same as her master's, and both of them carried swords, daggers, and bows and arrows. He was followed by ten large dogs and twenty guards. Neither of them brought a girl, and now Liu Zi is busy training newcomers! Because she also has a partner, she is going to get married.

"Master, it's a rare opportunity, let's have a game, right?" Ming Zhen'er said,

"Good! However, this game is still a good one. Pearl said with a smile,

Ming Zhen'er said with a smile, "I gave it to the master from the inside out, but I didn't have any color to take out!" ”

"So be it! Whoever loses, catches a hundred sparrows, how? ”

Ming Zhen'er's light skills are okay, but it still takes a lot of effort to catch a hundred sparrows. Of course, Ming Zhen'er was unwilling to do so, and said, "If I lose, I'll catch a hundred sparrows, and if the master loses, then ...... Catch a hundred fish. ”

"Haha...... All right! Just do as you say, but what if we tie? ”

"Then it's all considered a loss!" Ming Zhen'er said with a smile,

The two of them have left the capital for ten miles, and there are no people for a long time, throwing off the guards behind them, the two of them began to let their horses gallop to see, the destination is at the foot of the mountain where they are going to hunt, and when they go out of the city, they have already let people go there to make a mark. The two of them walked slowly and leisurely for ten miles.

Along the way, Pearl also knew a lot of inside information, it turned out that Ming Zhen'er entered the door with a dowry on June Fourth, and the people who heard about it were still a little despised by the people, and the companions of the third lady were even more worried that the newcomer would reach out to the dowry left by their wife, and at that time, the two sons and one daughter of the third master would suffer a loss.

Who thought that as soon as they put on makeup, everyone was stunned, all the red sandalwood furniture, the big pearls on the dressing mirror, the size of an egg, and the frame next to the mercury mirror was also inlaid with pearls, coral beads, jasper beads, lapis lazuli and even cat's eyes. When they saw the fabric in the dowry, it made these women drool all over the place, the jewelry box was opened, and everyone looked at it, and they all wanted to go up and touch it, and they were all eager to go up and touch it, and look at the pearl necklace, several colors, a full set of head jewelry of opal, as well as sparkling diamonds and alexandrites, these women were originally looking lively, but then they all went back with ugly faces.

The people in the Hou Mansion were speechless when they saw the shop, Zhuangzi, pasture and 100,000 taels of silver on the dowry, and the original third lady's full dowry was only 20,000 taels of silver! Ming Zhen'er's dowry, let alone 500,000 taels of silver. When it came time to let Ming Zhen'er take care of the house, Ming Zhen'er didn't answer, but the old lady spoke, and the eldest lady said that she was tired. The people below all made a stumbling block for this new lady, but unfortunately Ming Zhen'er had been educated for many years, how could she be tripped by such a small means! dealt with a few subordinates, and did not beat, did not punish, and was directly transferred.

When Hou Ying and Hou Yin were the two daughters by the old lady's side, they didn't dare to go against Ming Zhen'er, these three ladies were proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they knew everything about the subset of scripture and history. The four girls around her also have martial arts. I also heard the old lady vaguely tell them that this third lady had been on the battlefield and killed countless enemies back then! Who is not afraid! Later, Ming Zhen'er took care of the accounts, and in three days, she cleared out the accounts of 20 years, so that the eldest lady fell, there was no way, embezzled more than 200,000 taels of public funds, who could give a light sentence?
