Chapter 416: Old Child
Xun Xiang promised the old man again, "The emperor's grandfather's woolen vest has been hooked, and the emperor's grandmother's is almost hooked. I'll hook another one for my ancestors, and I'll be able to wear it at the end of the month."
She decided to line up the ancestor's wool vest in front of Xun Boyi's hat.
The old man sighed, "Well, who knows if I will live until then. Good boy, with your father and brother, take care of your mother."
The old man was very angry this time, and so optimistic people became pessimistic.
Xun Xiang's small mouth was close to his ear, and he covered her mouth and his ears with two small hands, and said mysteriously, "I'll tell my ancestor a secret, Master Mingyuan said that I am extremely prosperous, and I can prosper the family.
"My prosperous family will definitely be able to prosper my ancestors to the age of 100. As for my mother, only the old ancestor can suppress her, and the old ancestor lives to suppress her."
The old boy actually heard this voice.
A gleam broke out in his cloudy old eyes, "Extremely prosperous, really?"
Xun Xiang nodded, "Really, I don't dare to joke about that."
Except for the little life-saving ginseng of the Ding family, Xun Xiang had nothing else in his hand that could save the old man, so he could only give spiritual encouragement. Moreover, she did believe that her extreme prosperity might prolong the old man's life.
The old man laughed, "Okay, okay, my old man doesn't need to live to be a hundred years old, another five years is enough."
Five years later, Chisato should be able to take on the big responsibility, and that incident has gradually been forgotten......
Xun Xiang pushed the old man unobtrusively, and said, "Oh, five years is not enough, you have to live to be a hundred years old."
The old man's laughter was even louder, "Good, good, a hundred, a hundred."
The sound of laughter made several women in the hall froze. The fragrant girl is really capable, and she can coax the old man so happy.
When the men came back from worshipping their ancestors, they found that the old man who had been sad was smiling, and his face was a little red, and he was very puzzled.
Xun Yibo smiled, "Ancestor, what good thing is like this?"
The old man smiled and said to Xun Qianli, "Add another six hundred taels of silver tickets to the New Year's money I gave Xiangxiang, and Xiangxiang can buy whatever she likes."
The noble old man wanted to express his happiness, but he didn't know how to express it, so he only stuffed yellow and white things.
Brother Qian on the side was anxious, and said in a loud voice, "Zuzu, there is still me, and I ......
"Oh, add another two hundred taels to Brother Qian."
Xun Yitang, Xun Yibo, Xun Yihui, and Xun Yiqiang all gathered around, "Ancestor, and us."
The old boy was even happier, and hurriedly said, "All of them, all of them, and each of them will add two hundred taels."
Xun Qianli said deliberately, "Grandfather, your old man's private house doesn't have so much pocket money."
The old man didn't hear it.
Xun Qianli whispered into his ear again, "Grandfather, your private money is not enough."
The old man's face was clouded, "What? I can't hear you."
Xun Qianli said helplessly, "Then use my private room to add it."
When the old boy heard this, he said, "Good, good, good."
The crowd was so happy, and the room was full of joy.
Since that incident, the family has not been so happy.
Xun clairvoyant eyes were hot, and he looked at Xun Xiang with satisfaction. Thanks to this child growing up in Ding's family......
Xun Xiang likes this family atmosphere very much.
This family has many habits and drawbacks of a feudal family, such as taking concubines. It is also different from the intrigue of the big family, which is more harmonious.
Xun Xiang was only familiar with Xun Qianli's two sons before, but this time he became familiar with Xun Qianyue's two sons, Xun Yihui and Xun Yiqiang.
These juniors of the Xun family, except for Xun Feng, who was taught crooked by Dongyang, the other children are all good, including Xun Qiansong's two sons.
In fact, if Xun Qiansong didn't have a mother like Gu, he wouldn't have come that far.
The only thing that the old lady didn't teach well was her eldest son Xun Shi. It seems that the old man was an official in a field when he was young, and Xun Shi grew up next to his grandmother.
Xun Yiqiang is half a year younger than Xun Xiang, a very cute little boy, with a smile and two little tiger teeth, called "sister" crisp and sweet.
He felt that this little cousin was much better than Xun Feng before. When Xun Feng was still the daughter of Princess Dongyang, when she came back to see them, she used the whites of her eyes and didn't like to take care of them. And this cousin loves to laugh and be kind, and she doesn't stand up a little.
Xun Yiqiang also likes the kind of portrait that Xun Xiang painted for Brother Qian, and he also wants to ask Xun Xiang to draw one for himself.
Xun Xiang listened to his request, and after taking a closer look at him, she took out the old lady's pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and drew a caricature portrait of the little boy.
Everyone watched it and there was another burst of joy.
Xun Qianyue patted his ass, "Draw one for the ancestor too."
Xun Xiang shook his head and didn't paint, the old man's current appearance, he was sad when he saw it.
Xun Qianyue realized it and laughed embarrassedly twice.
Before the New Year's dinner, the juniors who have not married kowtow to the old man, and the old man gives them New Year's money.
Other people's families pay New Year's money before going to bed, because Xun Qiandai's family wants to go back to the princess's mansion and send it in advance.
The previous New Year's money was always eight golden peanuts, but today there is an extra amount of money.
The men ate with the old man in the side room, and the women ate with Brother Xiaoqian in the hall room.
In order to please the old man, Xun Qianli asked Xun Xiang to go to the side room to eat.
At the beginning of this meal, Xun Qiandai took his children to leave and join the family.
On the way, Xun Yibo said, "Dad, go back and have a reunion dinner with your mother."
Xun was speechless.
Xun Xiang also said insincerely, "Dad, let's go together."
Xun Juma rubbed his chest, "You guys eat well, Dad won't go."
Xun Xiang immediately asked, "Does Daddy's chest hurt?" Do I need to find a doctor?"
Xun was stunned, put down his hand and shook his head.
The brother and sister returned to Qijin Hall and saw that the master still hadn't returned, and Princess Dongyang was full of disappointment.
Xun Yibo said, "My father asked us to eat well, but he won't come. Mother, my father seems to be sick and has a pain in his chest."
Dongyang's eyes were red, "Then what should I do, find the imperial doctor."
Xun Yibo said, "My father said no."
Xun Xiang curled her mouth, "Mother, this is the first time I go home for the New Year, and I want to spend it with my mother, my father, and my brother."
Give Dongyang another step.
These words made Xun Yibo sad, and Dongyang also felt a little soft-hearted.
Xun Yibo said, "I'll go and ask my father again."
A man returned more than two quarters of an hour later.
Dongyang looked at the disappointed girl, bit his lip and said, "This palace will personally go and invite." Tomorrow, let people enter the palace to ask the queen mother for their guilt, and the palace is willing to be punished. Master Ma doesn't care about the feelings of this palace, he should also care about Xiangxiang's feelings."
It's quite emotional.
After hearing these words, Mama Chai and several other female officials were not easy to persuade each other.
Dongyang sat in a sedan chair, and several subordinates followed.
Coming to the door of the outer study, Dongyang walked in alone.
The little servant bowed and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, the master of the horse is on the third floor."
Dongyang walked briskly up to the third floor.
All the servants were waiting on the first floor.
