Chapter 65: Gu Tingye and Zhu Manniang!

"Zhong Xuan, my father is busy with official business, go back to help tell General Liu Sheng, and say that his kindness is understood in the house!"

"Shizi, please stay, I am friends with Jingchang in the house, just go over and sit with him~"

Now that they are all here, they naturally want to say hello to their friend Zhang Jingchang after finishing their business, and drink tea and chat in his small courtyard.

Led by the steward of the Guogong Mansion, Yuan Wenshao walked behind, looking at the buildings that passed by, and couldn't help but sigh a little in his heart.

"It's really a British government!"

Not to mention the current Earl of Zhongqin's Mansion, that is, there is no house before and this can not be compared, it is said that this was a prince's mansion in the previous dynasty, covering an area of nearly 140 acres, the back garden is estimated to be larger than the current park, and it is the first British Duke to enter Bianjing City, so as to get the reward.

And I'm afraid that this is also my own coming, no matter how the Yuan family declines, there is still a sign of the Earl's Mansion of Zhongqin at home, which can be regarded as a member of the circle of Xungui, and this group is very special.

It doesn't matter how there is a gap between this and that family, or the factions that follow are different, but they are all connected, and they are all relatives, and they will be consistent with the outside world when they encounter things.

Otherwise, Liu Sheng personally came to give gifts, I am afraid that he would be able to enter the door and drink tea, not to mention that the British prince and his old man would not show up, even the prince Zhang Jinghui is estimated not to come out, and the reception of the chief steward in the house is enough level.

"Uncle, please use tea~"

"Thank you, sister-in-law!"

Zhao is Zhang Jingchang's wife, although she is not too beautiful, she is also the daughter of an official eunuch, and her behavior is very dignified.

"My family officials often mention my uncle, you talk about me first to see the child~"

Zhang Jingchang, who was on the side, waited for his wife to leave, his eyes revealed an envious expression, and his expression was also complicated when he spoke.

sighed: "Zhong Xuan, you are really successful now!" ”

"It's all alarmed my eldest brother in the world, you must know that the steward who just brought you here, usually even my concubines have to give three points when they see it~"

"You can get it, don't look at my jokes here, this is why Liu Tongzhi used to be a personal soldier next to the old Guogong, and only talk about it for the sake of his face, otherwise I'll be a fart~"

Yuan Wenshao is very self-aware, don't look at the seven-grade soldiers and horses are considered a figure in Yuzhou, but in the eyes of the British prince, it is estimated that he is not even an ant.

This time is also a coincidence, the identity of Calais is all superimposed, and the next time the prince personally greets him, I am afraid that he will have to wait for a few years for Zhao Zongquan to ascend the throne, and he will follow the time when he is an official and a half-post.

The two chatted for a while, and then Yuan Wenshao also saw the depression in this friend's expression, and he could roughly guess why.

There are many wealthy families, especially the top magnates like the British government, there are not too many branches, and the old man has three sons and one daughter just by giving birth, and the concubine estimates that he can't remember the old man himself.

After all, there are so many nephews and nieces, and the concubines and concubines are a fart, and I am afraid that some powerful subordinates are not valued.

After taking a sip of tea and putting the cup down, he whispered: "Brother Chongguang, in my opinion, you don't have anything to do when you walk from the Eighth Rank Privy Council!" ”

"The seniority ranking in Beijing is too serious, it is better to go out to the state capital to be at ease, relying on the big tree of the Guogong Mansion, which local official is not allowed to give three points!"

"If you have nothing to do, you can still fight bandits, don't look at this credit is too small, you can get a good job when you accumulate a lot!"

"Alas~" Zhang Jingchang's expression was a little entangled, he naturally knew this truth, but he just couldn't make up his mind.

Yuan Wenshao didn't persuade him when he saw this, the British Duke was an old minister of the Three Dynasties, and Rong Ma was now the most important pillar in the army of this dynasty for half his life, and it is estimated that his friend is reluctant to give up the Prince's Mansion.

Of course, this is understandable, but if you are afraid that you will have to think about it......

The time soon came for her sister Yuan Wenying to get married, and the ten-mile red makeup was once again praised by the people of Bianjing.

"Hey, look, this is worthy of the old Earl's Palace, even if it was suffered back then, this foundation is still so strong~"

"Well, that makes sense!"

At this time, everyone in the house was happy, but Mrs. Yuan's smile was a little reluctant, and she held her daughter's hand tightly and did not let go.

The other guests didn't quite understand what it meant, and thought that they were distressed that their daughter was out of the cabinet, and these good close friends came over to persuade them.

"Hey, my good sister, it's a good thing for Wen Ying's child to get married, and besides, marrying into the Shoushan Earl's Mansion is not an outsider, are you still afraid that her aunt will be embarrassed?"

"That's right, Mrs. Yang is right, Mrs. Yuan, you can't be too sad~"

"Hmm!" Madame Yuan nodded, barely squeezing out a smile on her face.

"Poof~" Yuan Wenshao, who was watching from the side, almost burst out laughing.

He understands why, his eccentric mother and reluctant sister have this reason, but I'm afraid it's more about her money.

Because in the end, there was really no way, so she could only take out part of the dowry by herself, and then take it out in the name of her eldest brother Yuan Wenchun.

Of course, for this reason, Yuan Wenshao also fulfilled his promise, and really added double to his sister, but he didn't care if he didn't have money, the main thing was to fight for his breath, and it was no problem if he didn't wrong.

You can't really look at my sister to lose face, if the dowry is shabby, I'm afraid my aunt's family will not look good.

"Oh, I said Sister Feng, you see that you usually cry poor, look at this time you finally showed your true skills, look at the dowry you gave to Wen Ying, now I don't know how much to prepare for my daughter~"

"Well, it's all for the children, and the dowry is rich, and Sister Ying'er is confident in her mother-in-law's family!"

Don't look at what Mrs. Yuan said, in fact, her heart is dripping blood, because her mother's family is not a big family, and the dowry is directly reduced by one-third.

……

"Zhong Huai, don't say that Lao Tzu is not interesting enough, I am here for Brother Chang'er's full moon wine, and I have prepared a generous gift, and my second child will be born soon, don't pretend not to know when the time comes!"

As he spoke, he handed over a longevity lock, which was pure gold, the size of a child's fist.

After his sister Yuan Wenying became married, Yuan Wenshao did not return to Yuzhou directly, but was invited by Gu Tingye to participate in his son Chang Ge'er's full moon wine.

"Zhong Xuan, I can't do this..."Before Gu Tingye politely refused.

Zhu Manniang next to her saw that Qian was open, and she directly took the golden lock in her hand in the past.

owed a debt and said: "Thank you Lord Yuan, please take a seat inside!" ”

"It's fine!"

The Zhu Manniang in front of her is pure in appearance, her figure is also graceful, and her behavior is soft and weak, which is indeed easy to pity at first glance.

However, Yuan Wenshao knows that she is an out-and-out ruthless person, or a very independent egoist, and she doesn't eat children, in Zhu Manniang, I'm afraid she is the most important, and everything else can be abandoned.

Coupled with the unequal identity, Yuan Wenshao has never looked at her squarely, and there are good-looking people who are not on the list.

is also Gu Tingye, a big fool, who can be tricked around, to say that he is not unsmart, but he is easy to doze off at the level of women.

If this were someone else, just this kind of behavior in the outer room, I am afraid that I would have a seizure on the spot, but Gu Tingye, who was in love, just gave Yuan Wenshao an apologetic look.

Second Master Yuan wanted to eat the banquet in peace, but that Zhu Manniang was a moth......
