In the Yanguo Mansion, the maid who marries someone will inevitably be distracted, and she will have to live after getting married, so most of them go out of the house to live after getting married, and they are not on duty in the house, but they are in charge of the shop Zhuangzi and the housekeeper's wife.

These two people are not quite the same, they got together because of the tea business, and if they really want the husband and wife to manage the tea business together, Yan Mingqiao is not at ease.

This is her business, and she doesn't want to change her last name.

Lin Zao's marriage to Yan Mingqiao agreed, but one of the two must step back from the tea business. Now Lin Zao is in charge of the accounts, and Chen Yuezhou is in charge of the outside business, and no one interferes with anyone.

Yan Mingqiao said: "You have to marry someone after all, where can you follow me for the rest of your life." It's just that the tea business requires energy investment, and after you get married, you have to manage your own small family and worry about business, which is inevitably distracted. If you are married, one of you will have to take a step back. ”

"When is the wedding date?" Yan Mingqiao felt that although she was reluctant to Lin Zao, she couldn't stop her from living, since she was planning to get married, it was estimated that the two of them had already thought it out.

Whoever stays, who leaves to do something else.

Lin Zao said: "The wedding date is in the spring of next year, and the specific date has not been decided, girl, the slave is willing to ......."

Chen Yuezhou held Lin Zao's hand and said, "Girl, now that the tea business is stable, you only need to go to the southern tea garden to buy tea every year, and it doesn't take much effort to make tea bags in Shengjing." After the beginning of spring, the little one takes the newcomer for a trip, and then he can go to other places on duty, and where to go is all arranged by the girl. Lin Zao is still in charge of the accounts, she is used to this, she is also good at talking about business, and she can do anything small. ”

Lin Zao looked at Chen Yuezhou, obviously the two of them began to say yes, but this is not the case.

Although Lin Zao is reluctant to do what she is doing now, she is willing to find an idle job for Chen Yuezhou, and she will teach her husband and children in the future.

But Chen Yuezhou felt that Lin Zao had been doing it for so many years, and she was originally a big girl with a face next to the girl, so she had to pay attention to it, and she really wanted to marry him in the future, and then find a job to watch the shop, and she couldn't raise her head when she saw other maids.

After he can't marry him, it will be worse than before, and Lin Zao will definitely be unhappy in his heart. He can do anything, but this job is still for Lin Zao.

Lin Zao looked at Yan Mingqiao, "Slave maid ......"

Yan Mingqiao also felt that Lin Zaogan was suitable, "That's okay, as for what Chen Yuezhou will do in the future, wait until you get married, and the newcomer will come." ”

After Lin Zao gets married, she will definitely not live in the next person's room, so naturally there is no way to serve in Buck Anxuan, she has to have another big girl in the house, so choose one from the snow bamboo and the sunny day. The second-class maid will choose one from the third-class maid, and as for the missing third-class maid, you can just ask your mother.

Yan Mingqiao also had to prepare a dowry for Lin Zao, send some jewelry, silver, and fabrics, and the two of them had to worry about the rest. The marriage will definitely not be too cumbersome, Chen Yuezhou still has elders in the family, and on the day the two get married, Yan Mingqiao will also go.

Yan Mingqiao has already sent a few maids to get married, and she is quite familiar with this matter.

Lin Zao and Chen Yuezhou kowtowed, and Yan Mingqiao said, "Lin Zao, you go and send Chen Yuezhou." ”

Lin Zao's eyes were still a little red, and his face was red at this time, and his whole person was red, "Thank you, girl." ”

Yan Mingqiao also did the same, when she came out of the Taifu Mansion that day, Aunt Chen also said the same thing, and asked Gu Yan to send her.

It is easier for the maid to get married, the man comes to propose a kiss, she nods, and she can marry after setting the marriage date. Lin Zao's marriage is a happy event, and Lin Zao himself has bought it for the maids of Buck Anxuan; I like sugar, so I am happy, and I will invite wine in the future, Lin Zao has no parents here, and it is estimated that there are only these maids.

Yan Mingqiao looked at the gift that Chen Yuezhou brought to propose marriage, and smiled, she really feels that she has grown up now, not only by herself, but also by the people around her, who are not the same as before.

It's pretty good, too.

When Lin Zao came back, the maid who was sweeping the snow outside laughed, and Yan Mingqiao also tasted the candy, which tasted very good.

Chen Yuezhou's marriage proposal, Yan Mingqiao let Lin Zaoquan take it away.

"Now that you are still in Buck Anxuan, then you are still my maid, there is a way to be a monk for a day and hit the clock for a day, and An An will do his own thing."

Lin Zao: "The slave understands. ”

Yan Mingqiao waved his hand and asked Lin Zao to go down, replace Chen Yuezhou's people, choose two from the workshop, and whoever does it well in the future.

She looked at the snow outside, and the little rabbit on the windowsill, and felt a little calmer.

Lin Xiang said that she was not going to get married, she would follow her for the rest of her life, and the other maids were also good, her small yard was really good.

There were three snows in November, and at the beginning of the month, I worshiped my little mother, but only Yan Mingqiao remembered this by herself, and when she paid tribute to her grandfather, she asked her mother, second sister-in-law, and several younger sisters in the family to go to the ancestral hall.

A few days before and after the thirteenth, Yan Mingqiao ate vegetarian food.

In another year, my father will return to Beijing, and now Yan Mingze has gone out of the house to live another life, and the rest of the younger brothers and little ladies are still safe, and it doesn't matter if they are separated or not.

The mother is the mother-in-law, so she naturally has to take care of the marriage of the concubines, so it is estimated that before she gets married, the Yanguo Mansion will not be separated.

Yan Mingqiao felt that as long as the family was in one place, they would not cause trouble, and there would be a lot of people.

In the wax moon, the weather is getting colder and colder.

The people of Shengjing are all in Maodong, and Yan Mingqiao is in the house to make a pot of hot tea, put snacks to eat, read books, embroider and embroider, it is better than going out to be frozen.

She had already made the socks for Gu Yan, and before Laba, Yan Mingqiao received letters from Xiao Yang and Zhaozhou.

Grandmother was very happy to know that her family affairs had been settled, and she inquired about the situation of the Gu family in the letter, so that Yan Mingqiao could rest assured that she would definitely come to Shengjing in the year she got married.

Ning still wants to watch his granddaughter get married.

Yan Guogong also knew that Yan Mingqiao's family affairs had been decided, although he was not very satisfied with the fact that the Shen family didn't tell him anything, so he decided to marry his daughter, but he was quite satisfied with the Gu family, this Mingyu married the Marquis of Zhenbei, and Mingqiao married to the Taifu Mansion, and his daughters had good marriages, and he also taught them well.

Now, Yan Guogong is only looking forward to getting out of the filial piety period as soon as possible, so that he can return to Shengjing. In Xiaoyang, the winter is too cold, and I really suffer.

And Xu Jingshu was even more satisfied with this family matter, she originally wanted to talk to her mother-in-law about the little son of the Gu family, but her mother-in-law had her own plans at that time, so she didn't open this mouth.

Now, she hasn't said anything yet, her mother is a marriage for Ming Qiao and Gu Yan, and she is still a matchmaker, isn't this a god-given marriage, a fateful marriage.

This time, she also got face in front of her mother-in-law.

Although the eldest grandson of the Yanguo Mansion is not from her, Xiyi is very liked by her mother-in-law, and Mingqiao is the daughter of her mother-in-law, and the marriage is still related to her, even if she is not in Shengjing, her mother-in-law will not forget her.

Xu Jingshu also sent back a lot of Qinghua County's specialties, and said hello to Zhang Xinyuan, and sent them over with the full moon gift. In any case, it is a happy event to add Ding to the house, and she is also looking forward to giving birth to a son in this birth.

Zhang Xinyuan's child has passed the full moon, and the name is also available, Ning's name is Xiyan, and the nickname is Brother Yan'er, which is quite smooth.

Yan Mingqiao felt that during the Chinese New Year this year, although the eldest brother's family was not there, there was a little doll in the house, which was also lively.

On the day of Laba, the Yanguo Mansion gave porridge as usual, and Zhang Xinyuan came after the confinement, and added a hundred taels of silver, wanting to do some good deeds to pray for his son.

Nowadays, there are not many people who come to receive the porridge, but they are always a piece of heart, and the Laba porridge boiled by the chef of the Yanguo Mansion is also better than the home-made.

After Laba, there was a small year, and the family had a shallow and lively time, and when they were twenty-five, the academy was closed.

Yan Mingye lost some weight again, looking at the hard work in the academy, he came back and secretly told Zhang Xinyuan about something that happened in the academy, that is, Zhao Gongzi, who had discussed with Yan Mingqiao earlier, had an unclean mouth, so he was beaten with a bag.

Zhang Xinyuan was taken aback, "You haven't been seen!" ”

Yan Mingye shook his head, "Don't worry, no." ”

Some of the students in Matsuyama Academy who have not been married are mostly gentle and polite in front of women, but in private, they dare to say anything. A group of sons and brothers got together, some of them were the same as Zhao Lu, they had a room, and they were not taboo when they spoke.

On that day, a group of people gathered there and said which little lady in Shengjing was good-looking, and then Zhao Lu said that the Yanguo Mansion was good-looking.

At that time, Yan Mingye went over, grabbed Zhao Lu's collar and pulled him up, glared at him and asked, "Which of my sisters have you seen on the street?" I hope to make it clearer. ”

Zhao Lu didn't say anything, he only said that he remembered wrongly, and when Yan Mingye asked which one it was, he changed his words and said that it was not from Shengjing City, but the maid in his house.

Later, Yan Mingye came out at night and beat him with a sack, there was no evidence, even if Zhao Lu had suspicions, he didn't dare to identify him. Besides, it was his broken mouth that deserved to be beaten.

"He said to the outside world that he accidentally fell when he got up at night, but he fell again the next day, his face was bruised, I guess it was the Gu family who beat him."

Zhang Xinyuan said: "Good fight! Such a person doesn't have a long memory if he doesn't fight, and you did a good job this time. ”

Yan Mingye: "That's nature, the sister of the house, how can I let his mouth break." ”

Zhang Xinyuan said: "It's right for you to put a sack, but be careful." Don't tell your mother about this, so that they don't have to worry, you don't think you beat it, and I don't know anything. ”

Yan Mingye smiled, "I hope that our Brother Yan will also be a man who stands up to the sky in the future and can protect his sisters and sisters." By the way, Gu Gongzi also helped me review my homework, and I am also ashamed. ”

It's a few years older, but I still have to help Gu Yan.

Zhang Xinyuan glanced at her son in the shaker, "That's nature." Gu Yan is also for the sake of his sister, as long as you are good to Ming Qiao. ”

Zhao Lu is indeed beaten by Gu Yan, he will come out at night to get up at night, as long as he guards it, covers the sack and beats it.

Originally, it was quite embarrassing to be beaten, and Zhao Lu would not say anything about it, let alone find out who was the perpetrator in a big way.

However, unlike Gu Yan thought, he thought that after the holiday, Ming Qiao would come to Taifu's Mansion to play, but Ming Qiao didn't come, and when the New Year was approaching, everyone was busy preparing New Year's goods, and Yan Ming Qiao's housekeeper naturally didn't have time to come over.

Gu Mian had nothing to do, she could go to the Yanguo Mansion at any time, she asked, "I want to go over, will you go?" ”

Gu Yan: "What do I say now, I have to wait until after the sixth year of junior high school." ”

After the lottery, it is justified to come to the door again. You can go to the festival every year, and you can also visit on weekdays.

It's a pity that the Yanguo Mansion doesn't have a brother of the same age as him, otherwise, he would have been able to go over.

Gu Mianzhi smiled, "Then you just wait." ”

Gu Mian went to the Guogong Mansion to watch Yan Mingqiao busy, but she was eating to see Yan Mingqiao busy. Yan Mingqiao has to prepare New Year's goods and prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, this year is similar to last year, his father is not in Shengjing, and his mother does not have to go to the palace banquet.

It's good for the family to keep the New Year together and eat Chinese New Year's Eve meals.

In addition to preparing the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the sisters of the second junior high school returned to their mother's house, and they also had to prepare a banquet, Yan Mingqiao's four sisters were all married, and if they came back, counting the eldest sister and three sisters, there would be more than a dozen people, and they would definitely have to set up two tables.

Then there is the sixth day of the first month, and the Gu family also has to keep food.

Zhang Xinyuan hasn't done this yet, even if she helps, she is just watching and learning from the sidelines, this year's New Year, there are still a lot of things.

Zhang Xinyuan will come over in the morning, but in the afternoon, he will not come to take care of Xiyan.

Gu Mian couldn't help but sigh, there were so many things to do during the New Year, she went home after eating, and planned to go back to help her mother, and save herself from making trouble for Ming Qiao here.

Busy until the Chinese New Year's Eve, Yan Mingqiao changed into new clothes in the morning, combed a festive bud, and took out the money prepared for the little nephew before going to the main courtyard to ask for peace.

Everyone in the family is there, and please be lively.

The Shen family gave the juniors New Year's money, in addition to the children, there are also little grandchildren, and those who are given to Xiyi have to be kept.

Yan Mingqiao will be fourteen years old after the New Year, and she is now the eldest in the family, but as long as she is not married, she can get the New Year's money.

Not only did her mother give it, but her second sister-in-law also gave it to her.

Yan Mingqiao felt that he had grown up, and it was okay not to take it, but he was still very happy when he took the New Year's money.

What her mother gave her was still a silver cake engraved with pines and cypresses, and after so many years, her mother still remembered.

Yanguo Mansion was lively from early morning to evening, Gu Mian still came to pay respects, and when the New Year's Eve was observed in the evening, the fireworks outside were bursting one after another, Yan Mingqiao looked at the sky, the fire trees and silver flowers reflected the stars in the sky, and said in his heart, grandfather, little mother, in a few days, it will be a marriage, although it is not a marriage, the husband who can be the future should be Gu Yan is no different.

Gu Yan is very good to her, and the Gu family is not bad, this is a family matter that her mother has carefully considered, and she also agreed, she will not suffer if she marries.

Now in Yan Mingqiao's mind, Chen Xiaoniang only has a vague shadow, Xiaoniang is estimated to have been reincarnated, she is doing well now, and I hope everyone is well.

*

The sound of the watchman sounded, and Shen stood up and said to everyone who was guarding the year: "Go back and rest early." ”

Yu Xiaoniang and the others responded with their respective children, "Mrs. also rests early, and the New Year is auspicious." ”

A few people said several auspicious words for the New Year, and Mingyun and a few of them couldn't stop yawning, looking sleepy.

Shen smiled, and the group dispersed.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Shen family was exempted from asking for peace, and the girls who married in the second mansion of the junior high school returned to their parents' homes, naturally bringing their respective husbands, but among them, Chu Kan was suspicious of the highest official position, Yan Guogong was not there, and Chu Kan was suspicious first, and the banquet was quiet and peaceful.
