Chapter 435: Comparison
The days slipped quietly into the wax moon. In the last month of the year, Lin Zhaoxia became busy.
This month, the royal family has a princess and a county lord to marry. At the beginning of the first lunar month, Lin Zhaoxia was busy running to Jiang's mansion. Previously, she and Zhao Guangyuan got married, and the Jiang family made great efforts, and this time Jiang Wentao got married, so she had to go over to help.
Mrs. Jiang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were so busy that they flew up, but fortunately, many of the Jiang clan went to Beijing to help, and they could take care of it when they had a lot of people. Lin Zhaoxia also sent twenty servants to help, and the preparations for the marriage of the Jiang Mansion were busy but not chaotic.
On the third day of junior high school, Lin Zhaoxia went to Prince Qi's mansion to add makeup to the county lord of Deyang. A complete set of superb natural sea pearl jewelry, all of which are smooth and clean, and the whole Daqi can not find a few such large sizes, round and consistent in size.
Deyang liked it very much, "Thank you, sister-in-law!" ”
Prince and Princess Qi couldn't help but re-examine this nephew, saying that she had no relatives in her family except for a nephew, and her family was just ordinary. I don't want to get such good things, so I don't keep them, but I am willing to give them away.
This jewelry is even better than the pearl jewelry that King Yue gave him before.
"Good boy, you can keep such good things for yourself, and it's cheaper to do it for nothing."
Lin Zhaoxia smiled, "Since the prince returned to Beijing, Uncle Qi and Aunt Wang have taken a lot of care of him, since I married into the palace, Aunt Wang has given me guidance several times, and my nephew and daughter-in-law have remembered it in my heart, and a little gift is not enough to express our hearts." ”
"You kid. It's just polite. Prince and Princess Qi patted Lin Zhaoxia's hand and ironed it in her heart.
Those sons of Emperor Zhizheng, she still looks at Guangyuan's nephew as pleasing to the eye, but it's a pity.
Prince Qi's only concubine got married, the entire royal family came, the wedding was lively, Prince Qi was satisfied with the makeup given by Lin Zhaoxia, and was willing to repay one or two, pulling Lin Zhaoxia to help, in fact, to teach her how to deal with the royal family.
Lin Zhaoxia This is the first year of marrying into the royal family, and it will be the end of the year, and gifts will be given everywhere, among which the exchanges with the royal family are particularly important, and take this opportunity to teach her how to behave, so as not to do things inappropriately and offend people.
Lin Zhaoxia was grateful for her support and studied seriously by her side.
On the fifth day of the lunar month, Deyang got married, and Jiang Fu almost did his best to handle the marriage between Jiang Wentao and her.
Prince Qi is this one concubine, since she was a child, she has been treated like a jewel, and because of the relationship between Emperor Zhizheng, Deyang Shengsheng was dragged into an old girl, two or three years earlier, so that Deyang was said a lot of crooked things, this time she got married, Prince Qi wanted to make up for his own girl.
I can't wait to invite all the people in the capital to have a banquet, and it is extremely lively, and the silver is spent like water.
In addition to the royal street, several main streets in the capital are also covered with red and hung colors, not so big places to hold flowing water seats, so they set up a happy case at the nine gates of the capital, and all the people who enter the city can receive a wedding cake to congratulate Prince Qi on marrying his daughter.
On the day of the wedding, from the opening of the city gate in the morning, the nine gates of the capital began to distribute wedding cakes to the people entering the city.
When the people of the villages near and far heard the news, they were pouring out of their nests, and even the baby in the swaddling clothes was brought in, just to receive a wedding cake.
The family has a large population, and on the same day, they received more than a dozen catties of wedding cakes home, and they can eat it until the New Year.
The capital on that day was very lively. The eyes are full of red, and the congratulations are endless.
Lin Zhaoxia got married before and was tossed for a day, although it was rumored how lively it was outside, but she couldn't see it, and now that Deyang is married, she has a good time watching it.
The commotion caused by Prince Qi's marriage was too big, which made Emperor Zhizheng grit his teeth with anger.
Prince Qi married his daughter, there was no place to set up a banquet, so he sent a wedding cake in the nine gates of the capital, some people drilled a leak, Chaoyangmen led it and ran to Zhengyangmen to get it, Zhengyangmen received it and ran to Xuanwumen to get it, and I don't know how many wedding cakes Prince Qi made people.
The standard of Prince Qi's marriage to a daughter, can Emperor Zhizheng, who marries a daughter after him, fall behind him?
The royal family marries a daughter, but it is not as good as the prince marrying a daughter?
can be so laid out, and it is not the style of Emperor Zhizheng, so angry that his chest is tight. But what can I do, bow my head to Prince Qi, and prove that the princess's wedding is not as good as the county lord?
And what did the princes and the people think of him? He is a dignified emperor and can't afford to give a wedding cake?
So the pastry shops in the capital were all requisitioned by Emperor Zhizheng, and they were so busy for several days that their feet did not touch the ground, making room after room of wedding cakes, and they had to be more porcelain than Prince Qi's materials, otherwise they couldn't afford to lose that face.
As a result, since the people received the wedding cake of the lord of Deyang on the fifth day of the lunar month, not only the people near the capital rushed into the city on the eighth day of the lunar month, but even the people of the counties and villages a little farther away brought their families into Beijing.
In order to congratulate Emperor Zhizheng to marry his daughter, and to receive a wedding cake at the nine gates.
The disturbance of the wedding of the fifth princess Zhaojia made the concubines of the harem dumbfounded. Concubine Hui was flattered, and before knowing Emperor Zhizheng's intentions, she was sincerely afraid to ask the emperor for guilt, saying that it was too wasteful.
Emperor Zhizheng doesn't know how much money is too expensive, but what can he do, there is an example of Prince Qi marrying a daughter in front of him, he is a dignified emperor marrying a daughter, can he lose to a mere prince?
Fortunately, most of his princesses have already married, but when he thinks of the six princesses and the seventh princess who will get married next year, they have big heads like fights, and secretly scolded Prince Qi for being bloody.
Emperor Zhizheng was in a bad mood, scolded Concubine Hui who came to ask for sin, and let people blow her out.
Even if Concubine Hui was scolded out of the imperial study, the concubines of the harem, including the queen, were so jealous that they twisted a few squares.
The other princesses they gave birth to didn't have this treatment, and even the princes they gave birth to didn't have this treatment, so why did it take the turn of the fifth princess to be spoiled to heaven?
Could it be that among the many women in the harem, her concubine Niangniang is the emperor's Bai Yueguang?
Concubine Hui was called over by the queen to reprimand for a few days, and other mothers were also secretly targeting her, Concubine Hui listened to the words of how the emperor loved her outside, and her heart was as bitter as Coptis chinensis.
It is not yet possible to argue with it.
Secretly, he also scolded Prince Qi countless times.
However, the six princesses and seven princesses who will marry next year and the year after tomorrow are looking forward to their weddings, and they don't know how lively they will be in the future. I also went out of the palace to observe, and when I got married, I could make it more lively.
Concubine Hui was scolded by Emperor Zhizheng, and the news spread to the fifth princess's husband's family, Dingbei Hou Fangfu.
Princess Fang Fushang, Dingbei Marquis Fang Sheng can let the emperor spend this money? Naturally, it is a dry throwing fee. The emperor came up with an idea, and he followed behind to spend money. Just making wedding cakes almost cost all the money in the treasury.
The Marquis of Dingbei complained bitterly in his heart, but what can he do, bring the princess who has been pampered by the emperor for more than ten years home, and hold a wedding and let the emperor pay the money?
I had to pinch my nose and admit it.
Fang Zheshang, the second son of Beihou, was a princess, he was happy, and he didn't want to become the public enemy of his brothers inexplicably, and like his father, he secretly scolded Prince Qi hundreds of times before he stopped.
Prince Qi doesn't care about this, he does his own thing, so he doesn't care what others say.
He was lively and married his daughter, and in every corner of the capital, someone thanked him, saying that not only did they have enough of the excitement, but also fished delicious wedding cakes. What's more, the emperor also followed suit and let the whole family eat a wedding cake. The wedding cake received twice is eaten after the New Year, which is appropriate.
The people of the capital can't wait for the royal family to marry their daughters every day.
And Prince Qi was happy when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to marry his daughter again.
The wedding of the county lord of Deyang and Princess Zhaojia made the people of the capital talk about it. The number of people who have entered Beijing is several times that of usual, and they are all here, so they are not allowed to visit the capital? The New Year's Festival is approaching, and it is just time to hold some New Year's gifts to bring back, so the two big weddings have brought fire to the major shops in the capital.
Huixian Lou is even more overcrowded every day, and diners who can't get in order to take away at the door, and also grab all kinds of goods on the shelves.
The cashier received a soft hand, and envied a group of peers.
On the tenth day of the lunar month, when the school was on winter vacation, Zhao Guangyuan brought him to Daqi.
Originally, he could only walk around the house every night, or walk around the house on weekends, but Ping Shuo and the others wanted to look for him during the day, saying that they were studying during the day. In fact, he was not in the house.
Now that the winter vacation has been going on for more than a month, I was brought to Daqi by my father, and I can be with my father and mother day and night, and I am so happy.
It's like a paper kite that has been released.
Zhao Guangyuan came back from Si Nongsi, but he didn't see his son in the mansion, so he asked the next person, saying that he went to King Lu's mansion, and nodded. I didn't see Lin Zhaoxia in the main courtyard again, and I heard that she was looking for Fang Pavilion as soon as she entered the courtyard, so she searched for it.
As soon as the palace entered the courtyard, the east road was the place where the staff and subordinate officials worked, and the Xunfang Pavilion on the west road was the place where Lin Zhaoxia presided over the board of directors every day.
When Zhao Guangyuan arrived, Lin Zhaoxia was immersed in the case and worked hard to write straight. The pen was swung into an afterimage by her.
"Yikes! You scare me. Lin Zhaoxia said angrily to Zhao Guangyuan, who was standing behind her.
Zhao Guangyuan picked her up, sat on the chair by himself, let her sit on his lap, wrapped it in his arms, and looked at what Lin Zhaoxia wrote on the case.
"Use me as a stove." Lin Zhaoxia laughed at him.
Zhao Guangyuan put his face on her face and rubbed it, the chill on his face provoked Lin Zhaoxia to stir up, and he poked out, "It's snowing outside again?" ”
"Well, it's small."
Lin Zhaoxia felt sorry for him running so much in the wind and snow, and wrapped his big palms around his hands to transmit heat to him, "When will it be sealed?" "If the yamen is not sealed, he still has to work outside.
sighed, there was no prince in the capital who did his errands like him, and most of them were named in various yamen. The benefits are received by himself, and the hard work is done by the people below, and there are people who take the blame when something happens, so he does it himself.
"It's okay, I'm strong, I'm not cold." Backhand wrapped her hand in the palm of her hand, "Writing a gift list?" ”
Lin Zhaoxia nodded, "There are many gifts to give, and there are many and miscellaneous things to buy, and there are many and exquisite things everywhere, and my head is big." ”
Lin Zhaoxia married into the palace in the first year, the first year of being a member of the family, such a big palace, the officials and staff guarded the soldiers of the palace, adding up to hundreds of people, not to mention the house, just say that the gifts to be given outside the house are even more favorable.
There is no old precedent to follow in the house, this human relationship, full of knowledge, if you don't pay attention to it, you will step on the pit. She has been having a headache for half a month.
"Thank you for your hard work." Zhao Guangyuan circled her tightly in distress, if it was in modern times, she wouldn't have to carry so much.
Flipping through the paper, "The gifts in various places in Beijing can be delayed for a few days, but for the imperial tomb, they will be sent in these two days." "It's cold, and it's hard to walk on the road.
Lin Zhaoxia hesitated, "My mother's side, or give it to my third brother, mix it in their New Year's gift, and don't have to send it over alone." ”
Zhao Guangyuan disagreed, "There's no need to hide it, let's send it generously, but don't send it in your name in the name of the palace." ”
The Lin family raised the princess's nephew for a few years, and the princess gave the Lin family a New Year's gift, which outsiders were blameless.
"Okay. At that time, I will ask my third sister-in-law to see if they have anything to send back together, or if they should wait for a while to go back for the Chinese New Year. ”
Speaking of her mother's family, she couldn't help but think of what her third sister-in-law said about picking up relatives for Lan Zhen...... Lan Zhen means that small families can't look down on small families, if big families can't be their wives, they are willing to be concubines and aunts. made Ma angry a lot.
Lin Zhaoxia was also angry, and originally wanted to find an excuse to meet her second brother, but now she is not in the mood.
In the backyard of the palace, Ma and Lin Jingning were entertaining a family of four in the second room.
Lan Zhen lived in a three-room house on the pretext of looking for relatives, and the Li family often found excuses to come to see her.
Even though the Ma family said that if the princess was not summoned, they would not be able to go to the front yard, so they still asked the Li family to find an opportunity to take Lan Zhen to see Lin Zhaoxia several times.
Ma and Lin Jingning were angry, and they couldn't stop them from coming to the door.
Originally, the husband and wife were still very enthusiastic to show Lan Zhenxiang, but they found a few houses, but Li and Lan Zhen didn't like it, and they also said that the three-room couple was not satisfied. It also made Ma and Lin Jingning's hearts cold. Simply ignore them.
As a result, the Ma couple threw away their hands, and the Li family was reluctant again.
They live in the outer city in the second room, and they come into contact with ordinary people, how can there be many nobles who live in the inner city in the third room.
Today, I took the opportunity to come to the door and came over with a burden, saying that it was a New Year's gift for the family, and let the three rooms take it back when they go home.
"Isn't the second brother going back either?"
Lin Jingning frowned, he asked, with the care of the fourth sister, he and the second brother have more annual leave than others, no matter how difficult it is to walk on the road in winter, five days back and forth is enough, and the remaining days can still get together with his parents and eldest brother at home, and do their filial piety.
As a result, the second room didn't go back, and his second brother didn't go back either?
Lin Jingan wanted to go back to Lingcun for the New Year, but apart from him, his wife and children couldn't go back, and Li also said that he was just taking advantage of the New Year's Festival to walk around in Beijing and find a good family for Lan Zhen.
Lin Jingan thought that he often went back to Lingcun on weekdays, and when he thought of his daughter's marriage, he also compromised.
"I'm not going back, and I still have a lot of opportunities to go back and see them during the Chinese New Year. During the year, everyone was free, so they walked around and around, so that Lan Zhen could look at each other. ”
Lin Jingning glanced at the second brother after listening, does the second brother know that his wife and daughter have high eyes, and he can move around people, his good second sister-in-law and Lan Zhen may not be able to see it.
"His third uncle and third aunt, when you go back to Ling Village for the New Year, can you borrow us to live in this small courtyard?" Li smiled and spoke.
The stupid author misunderstood the winter moon and the wax moon, and always thought that they were the same. But the winter moon is the eleventh month of the lunar calendar. The marriage between the princess and the county lord was previously said to be the winter moon. The previous text has been changed.
