Chapter 1077: Talking about marriage
Fu Tinghan pulled Zhao Hanzhang forward to salute, and then the three of them entered the lobby together, the Wang family had moved to Princess Hongnong and sat down, there were more than a dozen boxes in front of the two, and when she saw Zhao Hanzhang, she immediately beckoned with bright eyes, "Sanniang, come here, the princess and I are choosing accessories for you on the wedding day." ”
Princess Hongnong looked at Zhao Hanzhang with a smile, this was the second time she looked at the other party carefully.
The atmosphere in the room was beyond Zhao Hanzhang's expectations, she was only stunned for a moment before she smiled and stepped forward respectfully.
Fu Xuan saw it, and immediately pulled Fu Tinghan out, "Let's go, let's go out to enjoy the plum tree again." ”
What is there to appreciate in plum trees?
But Fu Tinghan glanced at Zhao Hanzhang and went out with him.
Zhao Hanzhang took off the cloak and handed it to Tinghe, turned his head to Zhao Yunxin who followed up and said, "You go and get busy, I'll call you when I have something." ”
Zhao Yunxin responded, and then bowed to the Wang family and Princess Hongnong and stepped back.
When Princess Hongnong saw her in an official robe, she asked, "Is this a female official?" ”
"Yes," Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile: "It's my Zhongshu Sheren." ”
Princess Hongnong was in a trance, although she knew that this time was different from the past, when she was in Shudi, she often heard that there were many female officials in the court now, but when she really saw it, she still felt shocked, "How many female officials are there in the court now?" ”
Zhao Hanzhang: "The princess asked like this, I really couldn't answer it for a while, I'm afraid I have to ask Tinghan and Ji Yuan to know about this matter." In recent years, female officials have been recruited in the recruitment examination, plus the school transportation, and the promotion, there are not hundreds, but seventy or eighty people, right? ”
Princess Hongnong was stunned, "So much? ”
"There are big and small official positions, and most of the officials are just nine grades, or female officials who are not in the ranks, but I believe that as long as they are willing to work, they will one day have a place in the court."
"Oh, I called you here to try on jewelry, why are you talking about government politics again?" Wang interrupted them and asked Qinggu to escort her over. "Let's try on the earrings first, the princess and I picked out five pairs for you."
Princess Hongnong came back to her senses, turned her head and glanced at the happy Wang, after an hour of hot chatting in the morning, she had already figured out Wang's character and temper, people like Zhao Hanzhang were definitely not something she could raise, so ......
She looked at Zhao Hanzhang, who was sitting cross-legged across from her.
Before she sat down, Wang reached out and patted her twice, "Sit down!" ”
Zhao Hanzhang obediently propped up, changed his legs to kneel and sat beside Wang obediently.
Wang took a pair of jade earrings and gestured on her ears, "Oh, your ear piercings are almost full, listen to the lotus, how long have you not worn earrings for Sanniang?" ”
Listen to He's obedient plea, "The slave is guilty." ”
Zhao Hanzhang waved his hand and said: "A-Niang, I often go out on horseback, and occasionally I have to go to the barracks for training, it is inconvenient to wear earrings, I don't let her wear them." ”
Wang touched her earlobe, "Try it today, if you can't wear it, you have to tie it quickly, you don't wear long earrings, short ones are fine, I'll go back and let someone find a few pearls to make for you, just stick to the earlobe belt, it won't be cumbersome." ”
Zhao Hanzhang has always been an adult who should say something first, and whether he does it depends on his mood and ideas.
Princess Hongnong glanced at the effect and shook her head: "This jade is not suitable, try this ruby." ”
Zhao Hanzhang is bright and atmospheric, suitable for bright colors.
Wang took the earrings and gestured in her ear, and heard Princess Hongnong ask: "The general has been raised by Zhao Gong's side since he was a child?" ”
Wang said: "It's good for the princess to call her Sanniang, but it's too obvious to call her a general." Then he smiled and said, "Her grandfather didn't have time to support her, but when she was a child, she liked to go to her grandfather's study to find books to read, so she liked to follow her grandfather." ”
Speaking of this, Wang also sighed, "This child is easy to learn when he is young, her grandfather invited Mr. Wenwu to Erlang, and in the end, Erlang didn't learn much, but she learned a lot." At the time, I thought it was useless for her to learn these things, but I didn't expect that they would all become life-saving skills in the end. ”
Zhao Hanzhang smiled at Wang, "How about it, it's still useful for girls to study and practice martial arts, right?" ”
"It's useful, it's useful, it's useful," Wang said with a smile: "It's much more useful than your brother, by the way, Erlang, I haven't seen him in the past two days, today is a small year, isn't your yamen Xiu Mu?" Where did he go to play again? Those who celebrate the holidays do not go home, and the skin is getting thicker and thicker. ”
Zhao Hanzhang coughed lightly and explained for him in a low voice: "Theoretically, it's a rest, but in fact, there are still many things to do in the yamen, so everyone is working overtime." ”
Seeing Wang looking at her quietly, Zhao Hanzhang immediately said, "I also went out to work overtime today." ”
Even she, a general, is not idle, so naturally everyone has to work overtime.
Wang snorted lightly and said: "Your wedding date is coming, but you don't care at all, it is said that you should stay at home half a month early, but it turns out that the wedding date is two days away, but you are still running out, you look at the home and outside, where is there a little bit of a happy event?" ”
"Why not?" Zhao Hanzhang defended: "Look at the red paper pasted on the window, the red cloth hanging in the yard, and the red paper pasted by every household in the streets and alleys outside, and the red lanterns hung by every house, this is almost all red in the city, isn't this festive?" ”
Zhao Hanzhang hugged her arm and smiled: "Auntie, this wedding is already very grand, I feel extravagant." ”
"Your use is cut again and again, is this still extravagant?" Wang wiped his eyes when he said this, and choked up: "Your expenses have not even reached one-third of what your grandfather prepared for you back then, not to mention the dowry, I re-ordered the dowry today, and compared with the list that your grandfather prepared for you back then, I found that it was not even one-tenth, which is also too aggrieved." ”
Zhao Hanzhang looked embarrassed, the dowry given to her by her grandfather, including the dowry prepared for Zhao Erlang, was all spent by her.
Princess Hongnong on the side was also a little embarrassed, because the Fu family did not prepare much dowry, she felt that the Zhao family's dowry was not much, and it was likely because of the dowry.
According to custom, the dowry is to be compared with the dowry, and if the dowry is less and the dowry is more, it is actually an insult to the Fu family.
Princess Hongnong was uneasy, and was about to grit her teeth, preparing to go back to find someone to borrow, give more dowry first, and then repay it in the future......
Before I could figure it out, I heard Zhao Hanzhang coax Wang's words: "A-Niang, the dowry and dowry are all beautiful scenery, just good-looking, not practical, we know it ourselves, Tinghan and I have many properties that are not on the list, but those industries are still our assets, this is Lizi." ”
"The lining is much more important than the face."
Wang: "You can save face, and write them down on the list, how beautiful it is." ”
Zhao Hanzhang shook his head again and again, and said helplessly: "A-Niang, the war is over, and the next five years will be the outbreak period of civil marriage. In fact, this can increase the marriage rate and promote population development. ”
"If I am too extravagant, the people will follow suit, and when the time comes, it will become more and more serious year by year, and the people are obviously suitable, but they cannot get married because the cost of marriage is too high, isn't this a damage to the country?"
Wang: "...... So big? ”
Zhao Hanzhang nodded solemnly, "It's so big, so we have to be cautious." ”
Coaxed the Wang family, Zhao Hanzhang quickly picked up the remaining three pairs of earrings in the box and gestured in his ear, "You look, you look again, you look at the last, which one is the best?" ”
Wang: ......
