Strategy to develop champions

Chapter 641

Zhao Caifeng knew what Yang meant, and seeing Kouer's reluctance, she didn't make things difficult for her, but said: "Only the master chooses the maid, and no maid chooses the master. Since you have such an idea, then why not?" I'll let you go back and see what kind of good master you can choose."

Although Kou'er was unwilling, she had no other choice, so she just kowtowed to Zhao Caifeng, and Zhao Caifeng asked Yazi to take her back again.Zhao Caifeng wanted Yang to choose one of Jixiang and Ruyi, but Yang waved her hand and said, "Forget it, I'm not lucky enough to be a servant, I'd better live on my own."

On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, it was the day when the third young master of the Xiao family married the fourth daughter of the Cheng family. The capital was full of excitement, but more than half of the high-ranking dignitaries in the capital went there.This time General Xiao came back victorious, the emperor was overjoyed, and the imperial edict for the establishment of the Marquis Mansion has been drawn up.And because this marriage was bestowed by the emperor himself, people from all walks of life did not dare to neglect, Mrs. Xiao has been busy since dawn, and she really can't keep her feet on the ground.

After finally finishing up with work, Mrs. Xiao sat down after sending the long procession out.Mother Sun brought the teacup to Mrs. Xiao, and said with a smile, "Madam, let's have a sip of tea. I haven't seen you taking a rest this morning!"

Mrs. Xiao took a sip from the teacup. She laughed along with her all morning. Her face was still a little stiff at the moment. Hearing what Sun Mama said, she just said, "How can I rest? The third child's business is over. , and the fourth, fifth, and sixth."

Mother Sun laughed and said, "This is what it means to have many sons and many blessings!"

Mrs. Xiao laughed at herself, and only sighed: "I don't realize how blessed I am, but this trouble is quite a lot." As Mrs. Xiao said, she lowered her voice and asked Mother Sun: "I heard that the third child also invited Song Juren's family. That big guy won't come back? How embarrassing is it going to be?"

Although Mrs. Xiao still has complaints about this marriage, after all, she has no choice but to accept it reluctantly, but when she thinks about this matter, she still feels a little shy.

After hearing this, Mother Sun said, "Song Juren's family can't come here. A letter came a few days ago, saying that Mrs. Song's second brother is going to marry a wife. It's also today, so I just don't have time."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xiao closed her eyes and said a few words of "thank you to God", but in the end she boasted: "It's a winking family, so it's kind of interesting if you prepare a congratulatory gift tomorrow."

Mrs. Xiao also heard that Cheng Lanzhi's wedding dress was made by Zhao Caifeng. Mama Sun had seen it when she went to Cheng's house a few days ago, and when she came back, she said that the wedding dress was something she had never seen before, and the patterns on it were bright It's beautiful, but it's not embroidered. The pattern is inlaid with gold threads. She asked someone who knows how to do it. Such a wedding dress will definitely not cost less than 200 taels of silver.

Although 200 taels of silver is nothing to Mrs. Xiao, but no one else wears 200 taels of silver on her body. After all, Mrs. Xiao also accepted this kindness.The Xiao family and the Cheng family were unwilling to leave. This area was populated by families of military generals, so it was only two or three miles from the Xiao family to the Cheng family. Not long after, I heard the sound of crackling firecrackers outside.Mama Sun then went out with Mrs. Xiao by the arm.

There were a lot of guests in the yard, the two young mistresses of the Xiao family were busy greeting people, the hall of the Xiao residence was wide open, and the bride was welcomed in, Mrs. Xiao saw Xiao Yiming holding a hydrangea in his hand, leading Cheng Lanzhi all the way in.At this moment, two servants hurried in from the outside and said, "Go back to Mrs. Zhou, Mr. Zhou is here to proclaim the imperial edict!"

According to the theory, when the palace comes out to announce the decree, it must be changed into imperial clothes and incense table to thank the heavens, but today the Xiao family is overjoyed and busy, no one thought that such a thing would happen, besides, the emperor kept it a secret this time. Well, the Xiao family really wasn't prepared at all.

The two young servants just replied, and Eunuch Zhou had already entered from the door, General Xiao hurriedly went up to greet him, only frowned and said: "Eunuch, why is there no news about this matter in the palace?"

Eunuch Zhou only smiled and said: "Long Live God has specially confessed that General Xiao will be blessed with double happiness, so no one will be allowed to reveal anything to the General, even Concubine Xiao Gui in the palace will not know about it!"

General Xiao said: "How can this be done? After all, it is a sacrifice to the heavens to repay the grace of the gods."

Eunuch Zhou said: "Long live God said, don't want these vain gifts. The general Xiao Yi'an of the town has heard the decree: In order to carry the fortune, the emperor said: General Xiao Yi'an bravely killed the enemy, fought against the Tartars, and blessed me Dayong. I am enfeoffed as Marquis of Zhen Guo, and I would like to thank you for this."

Before Eunuch Zhou could open his mouth, everyone knelt down to accept the will. As soon as Eunuch Zhou's words fell, Mrs. Xiao was even more delighted. The general received the imperial decree from Eunuch Zhou, his eyes were red.Although General Xiao was also a powerful general of the country before, but after all, he did not have a title. In the future, the children of the Xiao family will still have to rely on their own birth and death to earn a position. It is a great honor.
