Yuan Fu Nushu

Chapter 231, Husband and wife drinking

It is very difficult for Yuanxiu to prepare a large banquet in one day, she has never prepared before, whether it is the type of dishes, the location, or the people who will serve her, she has to learn everything from scratch.

In a hurry, he thought of arranging an engagement banquet for Yuan Hui and Zheng Liugen, but fortunately, the patriarch really wanted to show the demeanor of the man's family. Engagement, of course, was a treat for the man's family. Long Street went.

The restaurant for dinner last night was too expensive. Yuan Lian said that you can come to treat me. The restaurant listened to me and went to a cheap place. The patriarch was grateful.

Yuanxiu has one thing missing, and she is still busy. She has no time to take care of Yuan Yun who has lived at home for more than half a year. The old man Yuan and Yuan Lian don't care about Yuan Yun. Yuan Yun eats by himself at noon, feeling bored go to sleep.

There was no time for Yuanxiu to take a nap, and Yuanhui was too happy to sleep. Most of the guests at the Huguogong Mansion tomorrow were young guests. Sister Hui was very useful. After the swing was set up, she would swing a few times first. For hers, I sent twelve balls, big and small, in different colors. Sister Hui tried to pat them one by one, and played with them for a while.

I also ate a lot of good snacks in the princess room, and the snacks reported by Sister Hui were comparable to those of the mothers in charge.

Yuan Xiu took part of the chores and concentrated on other things. When she raised her head again, she saw Yuan Hui's small chirping voice coming from the yard: "I also checked the play, and I also checked the kitchen." I’ve been there, I’ve checked the food, and now let’s talk about the guest list again, I’ll accompany anyone under the age of 15, right?”

Qingying smiled and praised her: "Sister Hui is really capable."

Yuan Xiu smiled lightly, completely forgetting the time for dinner, and while holding the lamp, continued to lower his head to sort out tomorrow's affairs, Yun Zhan was laughing at the side, this person was so busy that he got dizzy, and really didn't see him going back to his room.

He took Yuan Xiu's tea bowl, filled it with tea, and brought it in front of Yuan Xiu: "Have a drink, there's still a lot I haven't figured out, it's not too late to see after dinner."

Yuan Xiu looked up at him blankly, her eyes were motionless, she was clearly facing him, but felt his presence, when her eyes lit up, Yuan Xiu cheered: "Are you back?" Here, thinking about nothing and not being on guard, he hugged Yun Zhan's neck and jumped.

Yun Zhan quickly put down the tea bowl, otherwise his wife would be scalded.

Yuan Xiu only hugged her like this, and immediately realized that this is intimacy that does not avoid people, who should be avoided in this deep house compound?In the past, there were only three maids in the couple's room, but now there are not only a large number of maids, but also Yuan Hui outside the room.

When she withdrew her hand, Yun Zhan hugged her and hugged his wife's waist. A red cloud bloomed on Yuan Xiu's cheeks. Yun Zhan smiled heartily, and said in a low voice, "Why are you ashamed? After the full moon, you and I are old husbands now Wife, there's something I haven't seen before."

This was a joke, Yuan Xiu first slapped him on the arm, and then hurriedly looked around, and saw the maids and mothers who did not know when to leave, only their husband and wife were in the huge room, and the candle in the new palm was shining brightly .

Yuan Xiu hehe pulled Yun Zhan and kissed him, then broke away, hugged his arms and went to the couch where the husband and wife used to sit. At first, she walked with tenderness in her heart, and then walked two steps until she sat down, Yuan Xiu A little calm, in the passion of her husband, she is relatively calm.

Yanyan entered the Nanyang Marquis Mansion with absolute calmness until she left there. Yuanxiu had a husband who was very proud of himself, and he also showed his calmness, although sometimes this calmness disappeared. There is no place for calm to stand.

Yuan Xiu's calm today comes from Yuan Yun, Yuan Hui and Zheng Liugen are married, Yuan Xiu doesn't need to worry about the son's opinion, the son is very willing to entertain Yanyan and Luzhu, he also went to Yanyan's shop, her husband never Look down on people with lower status than him, not to mention that sometimes when the husband and wife are talking, Yuanxiu thanks Yun Zhan for entertaining the talents of Xinji, or Yun Zhan entertains the talents of Xinji and asks his wife Suoai, Suoxiangxiang, you can hear Yunzhan I also really like Zheng Liugen.

Being able to be named and retained by the government school, Yun Zhan also has glory on his face.

The dinner was served, and the husband and wife chatted and ate as usual. After saying that you miss me, I miss you, Yuan Xiu said carefully to the third uncle: "He won the prize. I don't know what official position you plan to give him. I shouldn't talk too much about the theory, I don't understand the outside world, but he is my third uncle, I only hope for his well-being, and hope that he can go to a yamen where he can learn something."

Yuanxiu likes her elder son very much, for example, talking to Yun Zhan is usually not tiring, and the girl who is a student has read history books and knows that there are many conspiracies and tricks in the court, but her elder son never talks to her directly.

Yun Zhan held vegetables for her, and said directly: "You mean after the third uncle passed the palace examination, his eyes started to look at the sky?"

Yuan Xiu covered her mouth with a smile, and couldn't help feeling lighthearted for a while, now it was easier to chat, so she also spoke directly: "Third Uncle said some strange things today,"

"What?" Yun Zhan said.

Yuanxiu thinks about it, it's better to cover it up, and can't say the original sentence of the third uncle, "Your marriage is a result of grandfather's past achievements", because her elder son said without shame, "I fell in love with sister Xiu at first sight, and I was just about to inquire about it." You, a matchmaker named You Zhen jumped out, praised you like a flower in the sky, and promised to propose marriage for me. I thought I couldn’t let him mention it casually, so I hurried home by boat and told my parents, please Uncle Wei Wang Went to propose marriage with Wang Xueshi, because I fell in love with you at first sight."

This is something that a passionate husband can say, not to mention that Yun Zhan, whose old house is on fire, speaks as if his love for sister Xiu is all due to the insight of a husband.

Yuanxiu listened to it, it seemed that Uncle You Shi was too busy to recommend herself, and the reason why she recommended herself was unclear. She complained a few words and said that she wanted to ask Uncle Wen, but she didn't give an answer immediately because she didn't know that she was in Beijing. The eldest son is here, and he reluctantly lets the eldest son brag about it alone.

This marriage, which was boasted by the eldest son as having blue eyes, became the achievements of the grandfather in the mouth of the third uncle. Yuanxiu disagreed very much, as if the love between their husband and wife was tainted with the word "utility", like It was her mother-in-law who kindly and kindly taught her housekeeping, and she also got the word "win over".

And Yuanxiu knew that his grandfather was famous in the province, but before he got engaged, the provincial officials would not rush to Xinji to pay New Year's greetings, and the people who came were often provincial officials. Seriously speaking, his grandfather was just a famous scholar, but he never would. There are factions among the left and right people, and my grandfather never talked about current politics, and even avoided talking about current politics, which is not enough to be "wrapped" by the marriage of his sons and daughters.

And if the third uncle is right, then Yuanxiu should have seen traces of the princess taking care of her publicly during the ten years she grew up, and could marry her only son, and it would be no problem if she wanted to take care of her publicly.

If the third uncle is right, why is the matchmaker You Shishu still coming out of Shizi's mouth.

Yuan Xiu cared about his official position because of Yuan Yun's talk, but he was worried that his third uncle would not relax his "father's past achievements" and that something inappropriate would happen after he took office, which would make his grandfather sad.

As for Miss Xiu's status in her in-law's house, this girl who is studying is not worried, just like she brought her poor relative Yuan Caigu to live in her in-law's house on the day she got married. Live, Yuan Xiucai won't worry, who doesn't have poor relatives, who doesn't have a few relatives who speak inappropriately, and if the family is really big, who doesn't have a few relatives who do things wrong?

Yuanxiu's most important thing is that third uncle should not make grandfather sad.

Then he went back to Yun Zhan and said, "Third Uncle said that Sister Hui should not be assigned to Zheng Liugen. It is good that Third Uncle values ​​you, but what he values ​​too much is your official position, your status, and your status. It sounds uncomfortable to me, like Although the third uncle is well-known in the palace examination, he still hasn't read the book to his heart. He has thoughts in his heart, and his words are serious, so he came out with such words."

Yun Zhan still spoke very simply: "I'm afraid he still said that the marriage between you and me is the merits of grandfather in the past?"

Yuan Xiu, who was pouring wine for him with his arms around the flagon, stared blankly. Although he didn't speak, the expression on his face was unmistakable, as if he was asking, how did you know?
The wine continued to flow, and quickly filled the glass. Yun Zhan quickly brought Yuan Xiu's glass and replaced it. , you are the smartest person I have ever met."

Yun Zhan said with a smile: "That's very useful. In this way, if you toast me three times, I'll tell you. How do I know that Uncle San said that?"

Yuanxiu has a capacity for alcohol, but the girl's drinking is always pushed back and forth. She just looked at the wine in her glass when she heard the words. It turned out that she was thinking strangely, how could the prince know what the third uncle said, and she drank more than half of it by accident? Son, she hurriedly poured Yun Zhan again, held up the remaining wine and smiled: "Success, I will respect you again."

"Those who play tricks are punished with wine, and those who toast don't eat it, and I don't eat it either." Yun Zhan teased her with a smile: "I told you private things, how dare you play tricks?"

After drinking two more cups, Yuan Xiu blinked and smiled: "The main thing is that I can't agree too easily. How many private things are you going to say?"

"A lot, let's talk about it from here." Yun Zhan looked at the bed curtain in the inner room, and then turned back to smile at Yuan Xiu, not knowing what it meant.

Yuan Xiu picked up her own red handkerchief and threw it over, drank the remaining wine in one gulp, and then poured it for herself.

The husband and wife drank the remaining two cups, Yuan Xiu served Yun Zhan with dishes, and Yun Zhan did not break his promise: "The third uncle said the same in my study,

"Huh?" Yuan Xiu's eyes rounded, and the third uncle threw him into the prince's study?Then this person can lose a lot.

Yun Zhan said with a smile: "The third uncle said that your marriage was based on the achievements of the grandfather in the past, and the princess saw his father's achievements in the past, so sister Xiu was honored. He also said that the second uncle brought the new collection of scholars to live together. Here, the second uncle has gained a good reputation among the new talents, and this second uncle has also been honored, and he should be honored next."

Yuan Xiu didn't even bother to blush for third uncle, but blurted out in surprise: "Can you say that? It's still in your study?"

Her brows were tightly furrowed, like Xizi holding her heart.

Yun Zhan felt distressed for a while, and comforted her: "As far as I know, this is the master's talk that my third uncle learned early in the yamen. When he says a word, he must point out his own advantages, so that obedient people dare not underestimate him. It's the tact that is often seen in the yamen."
