Chapter 1303: Winter Outing
An's was silent for two years, and when he finally had such a limelight, his voice was dry, and he stopped.
What was said in and out of the words was nothing more than the fact that the third girl Sun had been in addition to the palace and had entered the elder brother's office to serve the twenty-first elder brother. also mentioned that Chen Guiren said that when the third girl gave birth to the little brother, she would be promoted as a side blessing, which was extremely honorable.
When Dong heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Twenty-one elder brother is the concubine of the first emperor, and he has no mother to rely on, and his wealth is limited, but he will not bring any trouble to the Sun family.
If Chen Guisheng had other thoughts and sent Sun San's girl to the prince, it would be a blessing and a curse.
Cao Ying was not angry with her mother-in-law a few years ago, and when she saw her proud, she felt that it was very eye-catching, and said with a smile: "In this way, the third sister is about to have a happy event, and she should also prepare a dowry." ”
Hearing this, An Shi's smile immediately froze on his face.
Yes, even if the third girl Sun is just a member of the elder brother, the Sun family has to help with one or two.
Even if you don't have to buy a dowry as seriously as Fujin and Side Fujin, if Chen Guiren wants to promote the three girls, the Sun family naturally has to prepare more things for the three girls to have a long face.
The women of the Sun family went out of the cabinet, and there was a fixed amount of dowry, but because the three girls were selected to enter the palace, the An family did not consider the dowry of the concubine at all.
Although the eldest daughter-in-law is now in charge of the family, in An's view, the Sun family's meager family background is her own children and grandchildren, and the concubines and concubines are standing aside.
Dong couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the schadenfreude flashing in Cao Ying's eyes.
To say that the third girl entered the elder brother's office, it may be beneficial to the rest of the Sun family, but it definitely does not include Sun Li, the eldest grandson of the Sun family.
Sun Li is in the Hanlin Academy, where it is the most noble yamen.
In the eyes of those Jinshi Hanlin, Tongjinshi and Mrs. Ru are not in the stream.
Even if the third girl Sun is sealed as a side Fujin, she is just a concubine of the royal clan with her fellow jinshi and a lady, and her status is higher, Cao Ying's eyes turned around, and her gaze happened to meet the eyes of the Dong family, and she couldn't help but smile...... In the blink of an eye, a few days passed in a hurry, and it was November 18, and everyone in Cao Mansion was traveling.
Cao Hao asked the Li family to take care of a few small ones, and he took Chu Yu and his wife to Baylor Mansion to greet Concubine Mi.
Concubine Mi had already prepared for the meeting, and when Cao Hao and his wife came, Concubine Mi boarded the car, and the group came out of Baylor Mansion.
To Chu Yu's surprise, Xiangyu was not by Concubine Mi's side.
When everyone and the Li family converged, Concubine Mi asked someone to invite the Li family to get into her car.
"Thirteen Fujin is a matchmaker, and I want to tell Xiangyu to the second forehead of their palace, I sent someone to call her grandfather to come and ask, the old man thinks this family business is good, and he happily can't do it, so he took Xiangyu back to be married." Concubine Mi said.
When Li Shi heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and said, "Could it be that the Thirteen Fujin came to the door just for Xiangyu?" ”
Concubine Mi nodded with a smile and said, "That's for this." The second forehead is the nephew of the thirteen blessings, and the identity is limited, if the thirteen blessings do not help recruit people, the two foreheads are afraid that they will not be able to act well. Speaking of this, I remembered something and said, "By the way, the second family is also related to your second room?" ”
Li said: "His second aunt in Dongfu is also from Zhaojia's family, and she is the same ancestral cousin as Mrs. Thirteen Fujin and Mrs. Yiergen Jueluo. Speaking of which, this relative is not far away. However, speaking of Lord Yidu Liyi of the Bachelor's Mansion, he was once an official with God and his son, and the friendship between the two was also good. Now our fifth child is an official in Shanxi, and God bless his father to entrust Lord Yi to take care of him. ”
Concubine Mi listened carefully and said: "That's good, I have a relationship with your second room, and I have an old relationship with your side, and I will walk back and forth in the future, and when I can take care of it, I can also take care of Xiangyu one or two." ”
Cao Hao is Heshuo's forehead, and Li knows the rules first.
Xiangyu used to be a concubine. Fortunately, the concubine has no wife.
Thirteen Fujin proposed, Concubine Mi did not object, Li Xu nodded again, and it was not interesting to talk about the side.
Thinking of Zhu Hou's Mansion, thinking of the humble and sensible Zhu Ting, the Li family felt quite sorry in his heart.
There was nothing to do all the way, and at noon, the group arrived at the hot spring Zhuangzi.
Concubine Mi first pulled Tianhui over, looked at it carefully for a while, and then pulled Changsheng and Tianbao.
Although she had seen it a long time ago, Concubine Kemi still had gifts prepared for several children.
A box of cloisonné inlaid treasure enamel jewelry for Tianhui, which is equipped with hairpins, rings, pendants, ear clamps, etc.; Changsheng is a set of four treasures of the study, and Tianbao's is a set of peach wood zodiacs.
It's all made inside, and it's rarely seen outside, and a few small ones like it.
Even Chu Yu got two boxes of cloisonné enamel jewelry.
"Although these are not as fine as those that Sister Hui picked out, they are new and ingenious, so keep them for reward." Concubine Mi said with a smile.
Chu Yu took it with a smile, confessed, and did not mention the food and drink in the afternoon.
After a morning in the car, everyone was tired, and they changed their clothes and rested.
By the time lunch was served, the big guy would be refreshed.
The mountains around Zhuangzi are mostly planted with peach trees, and there is no scenery to enjoy now, but the greenhouse in Zhuangzi is full of life.
Camellia and potted plum have already budded, and narcissus, spring, and calla lilies have also begun to break the bones.
Vegetables and fruits are not as difficult to wait for as flowers, and there are already a lot of fruits and vegetables on the branches that can be picked.
Chu Yu asked people to find a few small baskets made of willow to come out, and everyone picked fruits and vegetables with their own hands while visiting the greenhouse.
Except for Concubine Mi and Tianbao, everyone else has been here a long time ago, and they don't think it's unusual.
Only Concubine Mi, when she saw these green vegetables and vegetables, talked to Li about the vegetable garden she had seen when she was a child.
Although Tianbao also came to Zhuangzi with his family when he was a child, he didn't remember it at that time, and now he feels that it is not good, so he pulls Changsheng and points to this for a while, and then comes to Tianhui's side to ask about that, and the milk voice adds a lot of excitement.
In the small basket he carried, there were already two melons and three cucumbers, which were full of Deng, and it was already very difficult to carry them.
Seeing this, Changsheng hurriedly replaced the basket in Tianbao's hand with an empty basket.
Tianhui also stopped, took a handkerchief, and wiped the dust on Tianbao's hands, very like an eldest sister.
Concubine Mi saw it from afar, and praised the Li family: "Sister Hui is dignified and pretty, not to mention, this behavior is also generous and sensible with her mother." I remember that she seems to be older than the jade girl, and she will be in time for the next year, and she will have to wait until after the draft to get married, or ......"
Tianhui is the eldest daughter of the Earl's Mansion, and her biological mother is the eldest child of the Chunwang Mansion, which is valuable in terms of identity. If you participate in the draft, most of them will leave a sign and point it to Baylor, the prince of the clan, as his wife.
"Sister Hui was exempted from election due to illness when she was a child, and when she reached her age last year, she reported to the above, and the emperor also allowed her family to choose to marry." Lee's Road.
When Concubine Mi heard this, she couldn't help but look at Tianhui again.
After looking at it for a while, she said to Li: "I really don't see anything, there are benefits of being exempt from election, but if you really have to bear the name of illness, is this also an obstacle?" ”
"There are two of them, only this one daughter, and Tianhui suffered when she was a child. The family affairs referred to in the palace are decent, but if the family is too high, the girl will be wronged in the future, and her mother's family will not be able to stand up. Her father and mother have long said that they want to choose a son-in-law, regardless of the rich and noble, to find a proper person for Tianhui, set a family affair, and want to stay for two more years. The flat girl in our house is three years older than Sister Hui, and she came out of the cabinet in the first half of the year, and Tianhui and her father are still talking about it early. It's just that the two of them feel sorry for the girl, and they are afraid that they will marry early and suffer hardship. Lee replied.
Concubine Mi is a person from the past, and she knows what the reason for this so-called distress is.
She was in the first month of the twenty-eighth year of Kangxi, when the Holy Driver stopped in Suzhou on the southern patrol, she was only fourteen years old at the time, which was the year of cardamom.
But the size of the ungrown Chenghuan is not only sinful for women, but also unbearable after pregnancy.
She lost her first child before she was born, and she damaged her body, but fortunately, the Holy Grandfather was merciful and ordered the doctor to take care of her life, and she raised it for four years before she became pregnant again.
Although people are old, lonely and have nothing to do, and are willing to pull coal to protect fiber, but thinking that Tianhui is the pearl of the palm of Cao Hao and his wife's heart, Concubine Mi did not say much about Tianhui's family affairs.
If you really be a matchmaker, if Tianhui is unsatisfactory in the future, there is no need for Cao Hao and his wife to blame, and Concubine Mi herself will not be happy.
Just as Cao Hao said to the sixteenth elder brother, he stayed in the hot spring village for two nights, and returned to the city early on November 20.
As soon as he returned to Beijing, Cao Hao got the news, the official department Shangshu Tian Congdian begging and resting was finally approved, the emperor praised Tian Congdian, added the prince and the prince to the teacher, gave a banquet and the old Shangshu in the first place, ordered the ministry and the court officials to gather, and also mentioned that the line said, will be by the hundred officials and ancestors, gallop back to the inside, and there is a division within 20 miles of the post road to welcome.
This banquet is the day of November 20th, Cao Hao just caught up, and along with the others, he went to the banquet in Shangshu Mansion and prepared a Cheng Yi.
To Shi Laochen, he won this honor, and he was really the first person in the Yongzheng Dynasty.
Even in the Kangxi Dynasty, there were very few decent old ministers like this.
For a time, everyone was envious and jealous of Lao Shangshu. Like the officials of the six ministries, they are candidates who pay attention to the official books. No matter which ministry is transferred, there will be a series of follow-ups.
Only people like the Thirteenth Elder Brother and Cao Hao felt that the emperor's order was too fast, which made Lao Shangshu's situation a little embarrassing.
Even the farewell banquet was given, and the old man left Beijing and returned to his hometown.
But Lao Shangshu is seventy-seven this year, and he is eighty years old, and his hometown is in Yangcheng, Shanxi, which is more than 1,500 miles away from the capital, and it is not easy to return to the township committee for thousands of miles.
If you wait until March or April next year, when the spring flowers bloom and you go all the way, maybe it doesn't matter.
But in this cold winter, Lao Shangshu may not be able to stand it.
Without waiting for the selection of the secretary of the ministry, Cao Hao went to the hot spring Zhuangzi again on November 23. Together, there are two more Tianyou and Hengsheng.
This is Chu Yu's birth.
Although it is just a dissipation, even if you don't invite guests, your family has to get together......
