Yuan Fu Nushu

Chapter 139, New Year greetings, one after another

Then, he was severely rejected, and Yuan Tianjin turned his face and left.

Afterwards, Mao just lived a life of seeking an official position for himself, and then urging his children to study. His failures, sometimes reversed instantly, sometimes passed the time. The decline of generations of elders.

Yuan Tianjin was like thunder at this time, and it was difficult not to hear him. His granddaughter was betrothed to Yunzhan, the biological son of Princess Dayi Dachang, General Zhenguo, and son of the Duke of Huguo.

When Mao just heard it, his heart was overwhelmed, as if ten thousand tigers and black bears roared in the forest. He knew it, and he told himself that he had seen the details of Yuan Tianjin, but he still didn't dare to guess.

Afterwards, the overwhelming gossip made Mao Gang prove himself. In the tsunami-like speculation of the public, Yuan Tianjin was a person who worked for the eldest princess back then. Even if someone notices, there will be a new theory.

They talked about well-known scholars, Huacheng Qiao's family, Jincheng Lu's family, there were famous people who worked for the eldest princess. After Haiyan He was cleared, he hung the crown and went home with only two sleeves.

Yuan Tianjin is such a character, he was the first group of people who worked for the eldest princess and returned to his hometown, so he hardly released new episodes after returning to his hometown, and great marriages also came to his family.

His in-laws are Princess Dayi, she has countless celebrities in her eyes, and those who can remember are naturally her confidantes.

The engagement is summer, and this dynasty is very slow to verify the news. In the autumn, Mao Gang verified that it was correct. Yuan Tianjin's granddaughter was indeed engaged to marry Shizi Yun. He deliberated for a few days and decided to come on the first day of the new year. Even if Yuan Tianjin still hated him , and there is no big New Year to drive people away.

He thought that he could see the riches and honors in the house, so that it would be convenient for him to say compliments, and he mentioned that he was struggling in the riches and honors, but in front of him, Lord Hou was still looking at the shabby furnishings, except for being clean and tidy, there was no advantage.

Mao Gang had to change the topic he had prepared, and he said haha: "Old Yuan, your family is still as poor as before, and it doesn't look like Sun's marriage. How about this, I have a set of mahogany furniture for several generations in stock. , because it is precious and has not been used much, I will send it to you tomorrow."

The old man Yuan thought to himself that this one was as unpleasant as before, he said that he was either rich or famous, if you yearn for rich and famous, you should work hard on your own, and it would be a waste of effort to come to me.

He smiled: "I don't have any distinguished guests here, just ordinary country people walking around. I can't place the Hou Ye's furniture. If I put it on, there will be no guests."

Mao Gang thought to himself, do you still want to hide it from me?His Royal Highness King Wei has been to your house, this is like a mirror in my heart.

"Hehe, if there is another king coming, it's better to arrange a set of furniture that suits both the host and the guest."

"Where is Wang Jia coming again? It's too early for my granddaughter to get married. Besides, it's a long way to go after getting married. Alas, my daughter is raised by someone else's family. I'm too old to move around. My relatives are all from the country, so it's okay to walk."

The old man Yuan and Mao Gang are slowly playing the game, otherwise what can we do?It is not suitable for those who are older than the Chinese New Year to have a temper, and he is old and bears little attention to world affairs, and after his granddaughter is engaged, he looks down on trivial matters. From another perspective, it is not wrong for Mao Gang to want to serve the country, if he did so after becoming an official.

Since he has not become an official yet, and there is no fact to come out, he can't say that he wants to become an official in order to make money, so let's talk slowly, anyway, this is his home, and it is Mao Gang who hurried back.

The second greeting card came in, and Song Cheng, who was wearing a new dress, bowed and said, "Master Shi of Dezhou Prefecture in this province is here to pay respects."

Mao Gang's complexion is not very good. The Dezhou Historian is also a precarious family that is about to decline. Their family is not short of money, and they have married businessmen and grandma for several generations, so the children can't study well, and they also take the road of management.

His family is not very short of money, and he doesn't expect to let the rich and poor to scrape the land. He usually speaks like this: "I should not be an official, but I am afraid of being ashamed of my ancestors' achievements in the past dynasties."

So I don't want to be too far away from home, and become a strong enemy of the Mao family who want to seek official positions in this province. The most annoying point is that his family is not short of money.

The old man Yuan said please, and Mao Gang pondered for a few times before his face became more natural. When the historian walked in, Mao Gang's natural expression dropped, and he secretly scolded Old Man Shi for doing such a trick, thanks to his shamelessness.

A man with gray hair also brought with him four beautiful girls, the older one was no more than 16 years old, and the younger one was about ten years old. They all wore bright red jackets and their heads were full of jewels and emeralds, and saluted clangingly.

"I met the grandfather of the Yuan family, my name is Yueying."

"My name is Xingying."

"My name is Yiyu,"

"My name is Hongxia."

Then they said in unison: "New Year's greetings to Grandpa Yuan."

The old master Yuan had nothing to say. Sure enough, the historian came here with a trick, and when the girls came to the door, it was naturally the girls who received him. Maybe Mao Gang just wanted to talk to him, but the historian went straight to sister Xiu.

The old man smiled slightly, begging his grandpa would not be of any help to his granddaughter, of course the one who is closest to his grandson-in-law is the granddaughter.

He was upset, so he told the truth: "The girls are so early, but the girls in my family watched the New Year's Eve until dawn last night, and they usually get up to study at five o'clock. I let them catch up on sleep, so it doesn't matter if they don't leave the room today."

Mao Gang was delighted when he heard that: "That's right, you guys came too early. There is an inn in this new episode. It's important to go to catch up on sleep first. Not enough sleep will affect the beauty."

The historian's name was Shi Tie, and he fought back with a smile: "Slow Lord Hou, I'm ashamed and ashamed." After the two of them finished speaking, they stared at each other, passing by in a blink of an eye.

The old master Yuan will not offend them in hospitality, and he is destined to offend people in another point, he will not accept gifts from guests, lest they will come to the door to find things in the future, and he will be overwhelmed.

Really looking for something, it's okay to say that what they are looking for is definitely not something.

This is the person who will be offended sooner or later. It is better to offend early than to offend late. Grasping the reasonable point will make them have nowhere to provoke, and the ears will be quiet.

Instructed Youwang, an old family member who was waiting outside the living room: "Second Mistress, please come and treat the guests."

Mrs. Zhen came out and asked her girl to invite the four Smith girls to another small living room. After a few chats, she knew what the historians wanted.

It was precisely because the father-in-law didn't speak clearly, he didn't want Yuanxiu to meet the Smiths.

Mrs. Zhen was chatting with the Shijia girls, thinking that they would leave soon. On the first day of the new year, there are not many guests, and the owner still needs to entertain other people, and it is the first visit. Wouldn't it be impolite to stay until dinner?
Half an hour later, Mrs. Zhen realized that she was wrong. The Smiths had no intention of leaving. Instead, they asked the host what they had for lunch and what specialties the new collection had for the New Year. They couldn't go home tonight, so they quarreled at the house for a few days convenient?

This is a must to see Sister Xiu, Zhen Shi thought of this, the unhappiness in her heart was like a thick cloud covering the mountain, occupying her heart.
