Chapter 300: Winter Solstice

After saying the right thing, "After all, the Zhu family is also worried about Mrs. Xu's body" followed Chen Lan to take a look again, and when he returned to the house, he couldn't help but whisper: "With your third uncle's personality, whether it is a marriage or a woman, as long as you can use it, it is all people who make the best use of it, and you will definitely not because your third aunt is his wife, so he casually promised not to marry in the future when he was seriously ill." You know, the person in his room who has been looking forward to the main room for an unknown number of years! ”

Chen Lan caught a glimpse of Zheng's mother and a few girls who had avoided the door, and said with a wry smile: "How can the old lady forget, the rule of this additional edict is that one heir is one succession, and the yuan match and the continuation of the string are even, if the third aunt is really in case, the third uncle will not be able to give the edict if he marries again, so that some people with family backgrounds will not treat their daughters badly."

As for Aunt Luo, she was crowned a lady in the past, so she lost her hope of rectification. Besides, if there is no decree, what is the use of Mrs. Hou, who is only effective in the house? ”

"That's right, I forgot about it!" Zhu suddenly realized, and sneered, "I thought he suddenly changed his sex, but it turned out that he was still calculating!" In this way, he can still get a good reputation for love and righteousness outside, and if he doesn't marry again, there will be no one to press on that woman's head, and by the way, he can please the Luo family. As for housework, even if the second daughter-in-law thinks about it again, but that woman has a three-grade lady, even if she is half a housewife, she may not be able to compete with her at that time! ”

"It's not just that...... At that time, I am afraid that the marriage of the fifth sister will have to be delayed," Chen Lan's voice was extremely hoarse, and seeing that the Zhu family was also contemplative, at this moment, she was full of contempt for the Guangningbo couple, and she was deeply wary of the third uncle Chen Ying. Although Hou Fu and Xiangyang Bo have already exchanged marriage letters, it is reasonable to be ironclad, but just looking at the current posture, Jingshi is still in such a situation two years later? Today's plan is "I only hope that Mrs. Xu can survive and work hard for herself and her son Chen Ting!"

Although Mrs. Xu still wakes up from time to time, Chen Lan is uneasy, but now that she is the daughter-in-law of the Yang family, she can't just take care of her mother's family and leave her in-law's family. So, before noon, she took her leave. The car was on the road, and she was extremely tired after not sleeping well all night, and she fell asleep leaning on the cushion unconsciously. Aunt Yun, who came out of the car on the side, and Changdi, who came back with her at this time, glanced at each other, and tacitly did not make a sound. Waiting for a group of carriages and horses to enter through the corner gate of the mirror garden, they stopped at the second gate, and the woman who came forward did not wait for the car door to open and the curtain rolled up, so she hurriedly spoke.

"Madam, Gonggong Xia has been ordered to come to our house to reward red bean porridge on the winter solstice, this is just here."

Chen Jian, who opened his eyes in a daze in the car, was shocked when he heard this, and pinched his fingers to calculate, "Fang Xian is the winter solstice today, and when he went out in the morning, he even forgot a pair of shoes and socks prepared for the Jiang family." patted her head lightly, and saw that Aunt Yun and Changdi got out of the car first, so she also moved forward and stepped on the car to get out of the car, "Asked Eunuch Xia that she was in the main hall now, and she went straight there." As soon as she entered the door, she saw the Jiang family and Eunuch Xia sitting as guests, both smiling with smiles on their faces.

Seeing her coming, Eunuch Xia also stood up and saluted with a smile. Jing Lan returned the salute, and stepped forward to see the Jiang family again, and without saying a word of greeting, Eunuch Xia talked about Yang Jinzhou's secret recital in the early dynasty. The Jiang clan had just learned about this, and they couldn't help but look worried when they heard the words. And Eunuch Xia immediately smiled knowingly and said: "It's not all played by Lord Yang alone, and the Governor of Xuanda, Iron Mask Liu, is also on the book, so the two sides confirm that the emperor naturally took down the person immediately." After all, this is ironclad evidence, "Whether it is Shuyuan Niangniang or His Royal Highness King Huai, it is difficult to say anything." Besides, "......", he dragged out his voice, and said with a smile: "When our family came out, Ru Ningbo...... cough, now it should be said that Yang Fu is right. They handed over the note, and in the middle was a note from King Huai to Li Zheng, the head of the Ordnance Supervisor, "The other one is the cadre stock given to Li Zheng by the pawnshop that was raided." All in all, at this time, Shuyuan Niangniang and His Royal Highness King Huai were too busy to take care of themselves, and they didn't have time to pay attention to anything else, "Mrs. Tai and the county lord can rest assured." ”

Jiang knew that these news were not easy to come by, and he thanked him repeatedly. Because Eunuch Xia was anxious to go to other important people's houses to give gifts, "She didn't want to stay long, so in addition to the routine rewards, she added a few extra gadgets that seemed worthless to add to her head." And Chen Lan personally sent Eunuch Xia out, and when he walked on the road, he had to ask in a low voice whether the things he had entrusted before would cause trouble, but Eunuch Xia shook his head carelessly.

"It's just a little thing, and our family doesn't even have this little energy. It's just,"", Eunuch Xia hesitated for a moment, and his already deep voice was lowered by three points, "Qiong Fang's life lawsuit, Li Shuyuan's mother ordered the minifigure to inquire carefully, and it should be inseparable from His Royal Highness King Huai." Now is a good opportunity, the wall is down and everyone is pushing, our family is thinking about pushing it hard, what does the county lord think? ”

"It's not right."

Almost in a flash of lightning, Chen Lan pressed the urge to complain and take revenge in his heart, and immediately shook his head. Seeing that Eunuch Xia seemed to be a little surprised, she pondered for a moment before opening her mouth to persuade...... I know that Gonggong Xia, you can't forget the public case between life and death, but you know that you have no evidence for that incident, and now Qiong Fang's life lawsuit is the same. In addition to this, if something happened to King Huai's mother's family, even if he signed the bail, it would be a crime of negligence at most, and most of the time he thought about it behind closed doors outside of the punishment. And if you can't completely knock him down this time, and the rumors are revealed again, can you still gain a foothold in the palace? As she spoke, she turned her head sideways and continued to move steadily, and Eunuch Juexia followed very closely, she knew that the drum did not need a heavy hammer, so she did not say anything more.

Sure enough, the next moment, Eunuch Xia exhaled: "Our family is in a hurry." If we sue in front of the emperor, our family really can't guarantee that we will be able to hide it from everyone...... Anyway, let's sit back and see what happens! After persuading Eunuch Xia to send people out of the second gate, Chen Lanfang returned to the main hall, and the gifts of the Winter Solstice Festival were still there. It's just an urn of imperial wine and a male red bean porridge, which is not a valuable gold and jade satin. And Jiang explained: "Don't look at that, just now Father-in-law Xia said that this year's gifts are less than in previous years. The ministers and ministers are all the same things as us, only one more fruit. And among the nobles, most of them have nothing to gain. It's just noon at this time, and our mother and daughter just ate this red bean porridge, and as for the imperial wine, wait until my brother comes back to celebrate! Chen Lan smiled and nodded, and Zhuang's mother hurriedly instructed the girl to go down to prepare bowls and spoons, and when the things were brought up, she personally served two bowls. Seeing that there was still half a can left, Chen Lan smiled and said, "It's better to put the rest first, and keep it for supper at night." Having said that, I was in a hurry to go out in the morning, and I even forgot to give the winter solstice gift. "I still wear the two sets of clothes and shoes you gave me on the first day of marriage, and if I have any more, I will have to press the bottom of the box*......" Jiang said so, and sighed after taking the bowl sent by Zhuang's mother, "I used to be good at this needlework, but now my eyesight is not good, and the more I can't do it, if I don't have your ingenious daughter-in-law, I can only count on the dealer to do it for me." Speaking of which, the whole brother is still a blessed person...... cough, I forgot about it, today you go to see your third aunt, how is her situation? ”

When it came to Mrs. Xu, Chen Lan only felt that the sweet red bean porridge had become difficult to swallow. whispered about Imperial Doctor Lin's previous diagnosis, but she skipped the letter that Mrs. Xu left for herself, as well as the post-entrustment to Chen Ying. Sure enough, hearing that Mrs. Xu was very likely to not survive the end of the month, the Jiang family also sighed deeply.

"This winter solstice is a big holiday, but it is suddenly so seriously ill, others are good, but it is the child who suffers............ Anyway, if you have time these days, go back and see more often, and your heart will be relieved. As long as there are medicinal supplements in the warehouse, you can bring them. Chen Lan has always known that the Jiang family is kind and easy to speak, although he knows that the Zhu family has always been good to Mrs. Xu, and there will be no shortage of these at home, but her mother-in-law's heart is extraordinary, so she quickly got up and thanked her. After eating this bowl of red bean porridge, she and Jiang returned to the house from the main hall, and after lunch, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law took a nap. After taking a nap, Jiang called her over, handed her an apron without saying a word, and tied it in two or two under the service of Zhuang's mother.

"Mother, this is ......", "Eating dumplings on the winter solstice is a common practice in all prefectures, but there are few mothers who cook by themselves." But when our family was in Xuanfu, there were a few people in the family, so every day, I cooked dumplings for my brother and his father, and it became a habit over time. I know you probably won't, just follow me*......"

Chen Lan suddenly remembered the time when he and his younger brother were dependent on each other in the past. It was Chinese New Year's Eve, and he never asked too much about him and told himself that he wanted to eat dumplings, so she immediately went to buy noodles and pork cabbage, and worked alone for hours, which made a very unseemly dumpling. However, shortly after that, she lost him. Since then, she has never touched a rolling pin or chopped pork and cabbage filling......

"Lan?" Hearing this, Chen Lan finally came to his senses. Gu Jiang looked at her in surprise again, and she hurriedly covered up the past with a smile: "I really can't." It's only been like this for more than ten years, and I can't rely on you to do it every time in the future, you have to teach me well. Zhuang's mother on the side was still worried that Chen Lan would be reluctant, but when she heard this, she suddenly smiled. And the Jiang family was very happy, and his eyebrows were full of joy: "Okay, you are smart and clear, it's not easy to learn this?" Brother Quan loves to eat the dumplings I made by myself, and he won't be able to break this blessing in the future! He's not here now, so I'll give you some for your grandmother, aunt, and siblings, and let them try your handiwork!" ”,
