Ninefold Purple

"Why did you come to see my uncle and grandma today?" The second wife asked Dou Zhao with a smile, holding hands. The maidservants on duty in the second wife's house all brought melons and fruits, tea, or snacks, smiling. He entertained Dou Zhao pleasantly.

Dou Zhao nodded in greeting to the maidservants, and told the second lady about going to Zhending Prefecture to offer incense to Bie Gangyi: "...sent the Buddha to the west. I saw that the two elder sisters of the other family relied on me, so I agreed. Then don’t be resolute, if he dies of illness, let his two daughters take refuge with me. If you were not resolute before and you were fine, then this matter will be quiet and unlucky.”

The properties of the East and West Dou are still managed together, and have not been formally separated. The second wife is the highest-ranking woman in the Dou family. It is a courtesy to say hello to her. Walking will be less troublesome

The second wife was a little surprised, she pondered: "Does your father know?"

Dou Zhao laughed and said, "Let me tell you first, if you agree, it won't be too late for me to tell my father again. There is also Aunt Six, if someone enters the house, I'm afraid I will ask Aunt Six to help explain the rules. "[

Mrs. Ertai was very satisfied when she heard this, she smiled and said: "This is a good thing, it is a good thing to accumulate blessings, what do I disagree with? Just as you said, wait until that don't be resolute and full of Qi Qi, let that Let the two little girls enter the mansion! When the time comes, you will show me."

Dou Zhao answered "yes" with a smile, chatted some gossips with the second wife, and got up to leave.

"First, I wanted to open a shop by myself, then put the Cui family members in the shop, and now I have taken in two 'yi servants'," Dou Shibang asked his mother, "Look at this..."

The second lady flicked the tea leaves in the teacup with a covered cup, and said lightly: "No matter who teases her. A shop, a few people may not be able to satisfy her, and there will be other tricks. We don't need to worry. Let's see for now. Let's see."

Dou Shibang nodded respectfully.

Dou Zhao went to Ji's place.

Wu Shan was taken back by his family to celebrate the New Year, the sun was shining warmly in the yard, and Dou Zhengchang was writing Spring Festival couplets in the yard by himself with the help of his personal servant.

This is a rule handed down from Dou Huancheng's generation.

Dou Huancheng returned home when he was 60 years old.In the eyes of others.He was a young man with a full family of children and grandchildren, and he was still not deaf and blind in his ears. He was a blessed person. Therefore, every Spring Festival, many relatives and friends came to ask for Spring Festival couplets, so as to be blessed by Dou Huancheng.Looking for a good omen, Dou Huanben is an enthusiastic neighbor, so he naturally responded to every request, and used his own ink to write Spring Festival couplets for others.As time goes by, more and more people come to ask for Spring Festival couplets.Dou Huancheng was in low spirits, and his two sons and three grandsons helped write Spring Festival couplets. Later, as long as the children of the Dou family had a good handwriting, they could write Spring Festival couplets for the villagers during the Spring Festival. An important sign of success.

Last year, brothers Dou Zhengchang and Dou Dechang were qualified to write Spring Festival couplets.

Dou Zhaoqi asked, "Brother Twelve?"

Dou Zhengchang wrote profusely, raised his head and answered, Yuan Kongdang wiped his forehead with a handkerchief: "The fourth sister came just in time, please help me find Brother Zhi - the two of us have to write [-] Spring Festival couplets today What? How can I write it all by myself?”

I don't know if Khan is anxious or hot?

Dou Zhao said with a smile: "When I go to ask Aunt Six to ask for help, I will help Brother Eleven find someone? Anyway, Brother Eleven will not help at this time."

The noren curtain in the main room swayed, and Cai Shu came out with a smile.

She bowed her knees to salute Dou Zhao, and said with a smile: "Madam said that she seemed to hear Miss Fourth's voice. We all misheard Miss Si. I didn't expect Miss Fourth to come." As she spoke, she turned around and lifted the warm curtain Invite her to go in, "How is Aunt Cui? The narcissus and wintersweet that Miss Fourth gave to our wife last time are all in bloom, and the room is full of fragrance. My wife doesn't know how much I like it!"

Because of the Ji family.The maids and mother-in-law of the sixth room respect Aunt Cui very much.

"She is quite a good old man." Dou Zhao said, and Cai Shu entered the hall, "I saw two pots of wintersweet flowers that I sent over, the yellow flowers were crystal clear, carved like the finest Huangshan, cool and elegant quiet.

The noren curtain in the inner room was wide open, and Ji Shi, who was wearing a peach-colored vase pattern makeup and flower gown, came out with a smile.Seeing that she was only wearing a Qinglian cloak, he shook her hand and said angrily, "This child, don't wear more. His hands are cold." He asked the maid to give Dou Zhao her hand stove, and then entered the room with Dou Zhao. Inner room: "I'm going to your place." Then asked, "Have you prepared all the New Year's goods over there?" [

"With Aunt Cui, it is natural that everything has been prepared." Dou Zhao smiled, and went to the kang with Mrs. Ji, and told Mrs. Ji all the things that happened these days.

Ji smiled and said: "You are a lucky child. It will benefit your reputation to take in their sisters. You should do more things like this in the future. After the limelight, there is a way to send it out. Don’t worry.” He added, “As for the shop, it’s okay to start paying a few thousand taels of silver, as long as you can keep your capital before you get married. We don’t want that profit either.”

It's all about reputation.

Dou Zhao was ashamed.

Mrs. Ji chuckled, and asked her, "Did you go to report to the Second Taifu in person?"

"I went to the second wife's place first, and then came to you."

"That's good." Ji said with a smile, "Older people are most afraid of juniors not paying attention to her. If you have anything to do in the future, just talk to Mrs. Er."

Dou Zhao understood this truth early on, but still nodded with a smile.

When she came out of Ji's room, Dou Dechang had already returned and was busy writing Spring Festival couplets with Dou Zhengchang.

"Where did Brother Twelfth sneak back from?" Dou Zhao looked at the sun shining on them warmly, and went to help them polish their ink and bask in the sun casually.

"I went to the latrine." Dou Dechang said, "I didn't go anywhere?"

Really?

Dou Zhao looked towards Dou Zhengchang.

Dou Zhengchang still had some anger on his face, but he said, "He's back early!"

What the hell is this guy doing?

These days are full of gods and gods.

However, with Dou Qijun watching, nothing major should happen.

Dou Zhao muttered in his heart and went back to Xifu.

After the Lantern Festival, don't be resolute and also pass Qiqi.The Bie sisters packed up and went to Xidou.

Ganlu and Sujuan hurried over to help them pack their things.

Dou Zhao saw that although they weren't popular, they didn't wear filial piety either, and said, "The Second Wife in the East Mansion is a bit strict, and you don't need to pay too much attention to the rest."

Chen Qushui had inquired about Dou Zhao when he asked Dou Zhao for help, and they knew something about the situation of Dou's family. [

Bie Suxin and Bie Sulan responded repeatedly, they changed into moon white muslin jackets, and went to Aunt Cui's place.

Aunt Cui first took the two of them by the hand and asked them warmly, then pointed to Bie Suxin and said to Dou Zhao: "You are so beautiful, how can someone who has practiced boxing and kicking?" Then she pulled Bie Sulan: "This child, who grows up?" That's great!" His tone was very sincere.

Dou Zhao pursed his lips and smiled.

Grandmothers like strong kids.

Bie Sulan was a little shocked.

She stood with her sister, and everyone praised her for being good, but no one ever praised her.

Although it was the first time they met, Bie Sulan fell in love with her grandmother immediately.

Bie Suxin also felt that her grandmother was amiable, so she couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, and all the worries before coming here disappeared.She handed over the key of Bie's Martial Arts Hall to Dou Zhao: "...you want to let my father have a place when he leaves. I leave it to you."

Dou Zhao redeemed it in the name of Bie Gangyi. She had no intention of wanting this house from the beginning, but Bie Suxin said that she was very relieved to give up that house, and she took back a key.

The grandmother whispered to her: "That is the ancestor of the family, you can give it to them, and you are not short of that little money."

Dou Zhao said with a smile: "It must be returned to them, but not at this time."

The grandmother still wanted to ask, but Dou Zhao said, "Okay, okay, go and change your clothes. Later, Mother Tuo and Cui Si will bring their children to see you."

Because of the grandfather, the people of Cui's family only came to pay New Year's greetings to Aunt Cui after the Chinese New Year. Now that Aunt Cui moved into Dou's house, the Cui family was used to it, and they still celebrated the New Year to pay New Year's greetings.

The grandmother laughed very happily, and Dou Zhao led the Bie sisters to meet the second wife before the Cui family members arrived.

The second lady asked a few words, and saw that the two sisters responded politely, neither humble nor overbearing, and was very satisfied. She told a few words to serve Dou Zhao well, and each gave a silver hairpin with a plum tip on it, and served tea.

Dou Zhao took the two of them to Aunt Six again.

Aunt Six's place was full of people, and everyone was carrying boxes and cages, or holding porcelain vases, or carrying some gadgets to the east wing.

Bie Suxin and Bie Sulan were shocked.

Dou Zhao smiled and said, "It's the fourth master of the Wu family who is back!"

As soon as her words fell, Wu Shan appeared from nowhere.

"Fourth sister, have a great Chinese New Year!" He bowed to Dou Zhao.

Dou Zhao returned the gift with a smile: "Very good! Is the old lady of the Wu family okay?"

Wu Shan's great-grandmother is still alive.

"Very good, very good." Shanwu smiled, and called the servant next to him, "Bring over the pair of agarwood wood chess pieces I brought from home." Then he said to Dou Zhao, "The chess pieces are engraved with Arhats, The clothes are bright, lifelike, and very interesting, and the fourth sister will definitely like it."

He often gave Dou Zhao some small things, and Dou Zhao put them all in boxes.

She thanked her with a smile, and pointed to sisters Bie to let him know.

He rewarded Bie Suxin and Bie Sulan with two pieces of excellent jadeite.

Bie Sulan was overjoyed, she hid the jade token in her cage, and said to Bie Suxin: "That Mr. Wu is so generous! This jade token is probably worth four or fifty taels of silver."

Don Suxin smiled and touched her younger sister's head, she didn't make a sound, but she was thinking of the way Wu Shan looked at Dou Zhao. kind……

Just as she was thinking about it, Ganlu entered the door: "Sister Suxin, there is a man named Chen Xiaofeng who says he is your relative and wants to see you."
