Blessed

Chapter 35
At the beginning, Mrs. Lin told Rui Geer that what she valued was the quality of the Zheng family. The Zheng family has been doctors for generations, and even the youngest daughter Zheng Xiuxiu who is about to marry knows a little bit about superficiality. , often help some orphans, widows, old and weak to see a doctor and make medicine.

The Zheng family is not considered a family, and the family is not that rich. Back then, the uncle's house was also in poverty, and the Lin family had to choose thousands of choices for Rui Ge'er. She did not choose the concubine daughter of the family, but chose the youngest daughter of the Zheng family.

Jiang Rui is the eldest son of the uncle's mansion, he is not as knowledgeable as the second brother's brother Heng, and he failed the imperial examination twice, so he gave up his thoughts, but he is very kind, similar to his eldest uncle Jiang Anfeng's temperament.He is seventeen this year, Zheng Xiuxiu is sixteen, and he should get married.

The day of welcoming is on the [-]th of May. Early in the morning, the uncle’s mansion got busy, with lights and festoons, and they all gathered in the waterside courtyard. Yuzhu also dressed up early and was carried by Mrs. Mu. Jiang Rui wore a red wedding dress, matching The man was tall and handsome, with a bit of shyness, and Lin was explaining to him what he had to do in a while.

Yuzhu was placed on the imperial concubine's couch by Mrs. Mu, and went to help by herself, Yuzhu didn't make trouble, just sat obediently and looked at her elder brother.

When the auspicious time came, Jiang Rui was led by the matchmaker, riding a tall horse, followed by a sedan chair to Zheng's house to welcome his relatives.

It was an auspicious time to welcome the bride back to the man, and it was almost evening, so Mrs. Mu took Yuzhu back to eat something to cushion her stomach, take a nap, and told her that she would welcome her sister-in-law back for dinner at night.Yuzhu was also obedient. After eating, Bai Shao put water on her face, wiped her face, and went to sleep.

She slept well, and when she woke up, she sat up, and Bai Shao, who was embroidering things, took her robe and tied it to Yuzhu, brought warm water over to rinse her mouth, and then said, "Girl, the licorice will go with the wife." Help me from the Waterside Courtyard, the time will be auspicious in a while, the eldest and young master should go back, the girl should go and have a look."

"Yes." Yuzhu nodded.

Bai Shao hugged Yuzhu'er and went to the Waterside Courtyard, everyone in the mansion might be here, it's very lively.

Seeing Yuzhu coming, Mrs. Mu took her and hugged you, and asked softly, "Did you sleep well?" She was afraid that the house would be too noisy and disturb her.

"Jiao Jiao slept well." Yuzhu'er slept well, and as long as she was asleep, she would not be easily awakened.

Just as I was talking, it was so noisy outside with gongs and drums.

"Here we come." The female relatives followed the old lady to the door to welcome them, all of them were joyful.

Jiang Rui, who was dressed in a red robe, entered the mansion with the bride who also wore a red wedding dress on her back, and walked all the way to the main hall. drinking and talking.

Yuzhu got a lot of red envelopes along the way, and each red envelope was worth ten Wen. It was auspicious, and she ate a lot of food. She waited for the people who had left the banquet to go back to Fuyunyuan together. This time, everyone was complete. Very soon, Daddy, the three elder brothers, and Xie Che came back together, Yuzhu was held by Xie Che, he was away a few days ago, he went with Jiang Ansu to handle official business, and only returned yesterday.

Yuzhu just nestled in Xie Che's arms and was drowsy. When she fell asleep, she would vaguely ask Mrs. Mu in front of her, "Mother, does the new bride look good?"

Mrs. Mu smiled, "It's pretty."

Yuzhu also laughed, "Then I will go with my mother to meet the bride tomorrow morning." After saying that, she tilted her head and fell asleep on Xie Che's shoulder.

"That's sister-in-law, remember to change your words tomorrow." After Madam Mu finished speaking, she realized that her daughter had fallen asleep, took her from Xie Che's arms, carried her back to the hospital to wash and fall asleep.

At half o'clock the next day, Yuzhu asked Licorice to help her wash and dress up, and followed Mrs. Mu to the old lady's courtyard to say hello, just in time to see my sister-in-law. Today, the elders of my sister-in-law's family greeted her. When Yuzhu passed by, my sister-in-law was already standing in the house, waiting Serve tea to Mrs. Lin, the uncle and the old lady.

Yuzhu stood aside with Mrs. Mu, without bothering her, and secretly looked at her sister-in-law. She was a pretty girl, but she had her hair done up in a woman's bun. The daughter-in-law's vision is still very good.

After the tea was served, the elders gave red envelopes, Mrs. Mu gave her a gold flower bracelet, which was elegant and simple, and Mrs. Tao gave her gold bead eggplant earrings, which were small and exquisite, and they were all new styles in the shop.Zheng Xiuxiu thanked her and gave the same thing to her three daughters, the gold-plated bronze Fulushou Longevity Lock, put it on for the three daughters, praised her a few words, and looked at Yuzhu's face a few more times .

Can you not be curious? The rumors outside are so evil. It is said that since the third house of the uncle returned to Beijing, the four girls opened their minds and drew blessings to get the Buddha beads. The good luck of the uncle's house came. Xie Yuan, the son, had to search for flowers, and the four girls were named county monarchs, and life was getting better every day.

Zheng Xiuxiu saw this little sister-in-law carved with jade, just like a jade doll, she fell in love with it at the first sight, and wanted to hug her for a few bites, but she was concerned about her status as a bride, so don't be too outrageous, just bear it for now, But still smiled at Yuzhu.

Yuzhu also smiled at Zheng Xiuxiu, this sister-in-law will definitely be easy to get along with in the future, well, she likes such a family, the family is happy and harmonious.

It's almost summer, and the happy events in the mansion finally stopped. In the past two or three months, Yuzhu was tired, and all the happy events in the mansion seemed to be crowded together. Finally, she was free. Yuzhu fell asleep for three days. Except for eating, the rest Fell asleep on the bed.

But Mrs. Mu was shocked, and wanted to invite the doctor to come and have a look, but Xie Che stopped, "Don't worry, Madam, Jiaojiao is just tired, these days are too busy, she is young, she can't bear it, she can rest for a few days it is good."

Sure enough, after two or three days, Yuzhu got up full of energy and returned to her usual routine. Mu had no choice but to say, "Your sister-in-law has come to visit you two or three times in the past few days, and you fell asleep every time, so I can only refuse you." Sister-in-law, I'm afraid your sister-in-law will think too much, and you can ask Licorice to take you to the Shuixieyuan later to see your sister-in-law. By the way, that kid from the Cheng family brought you a basket of lychees, and you can bring some for your sister-in-law to taste. taste."

The child of the Cheng family is Cheng Zishen, a child of the merchant Cheng family. Ever since the commotion on the ship, he has gotten along well with the Sanfang brothers. He usually gives some rare things to Yuzhu. This lychee is a good thing. The most precious early-ripening lychee, he knew that Yuzhu loved to eat it, so he asked someone to buy two baskets, and hurriedly replaced it with ice cubes on the way to Beijing.

Cheng Zishen can be regarded as inheriting his father's business. He followed Cheng's father to run business all over the world at a young age. He is very talented in this area. Yuzhu has met him several times.

He gave the pair of rabbits last time.

The cost of this basket of lychees is probably three or four hundred taels of silver. Yuzhu glanced at the lychees placed at the foot of the round table, and said, "Mom, this one is so expensive."

Mrs. Mu stopped her work, reached out and pinched her daughter's soft and tender cheeks, "Don't worry about it, our family can afford it now." She gave the Cheng family boy silver taels, but the boy refused to take it, saying it was him Calling Yuzhu a little sister, it's not a bad idea to send some food.

Mrs. Mu insisted on giving it, but he was only willing to accept two baskets of money for buying lychees. Although this is a rare item in the south, the price for two baskets is only 40 taels of silver, which is more expensive than the travel expenses. He insisted on not accepting any more. He said that he brought it back for sister Yuzhu by the way, so that nothing else would get in the way.

Seeing the ten-year-old boy being so sensible and courteous, Mrs. Mu was quite moved. This boy has grown up a lot. Back then on the boat, he pointedly pointed out that Jiao Jiaoer was a fool, but after eight or nine months, he has grown like this.

Yuzhu also made some calculations in her heart, knowing that her mother's shop probably has a fixed profit of thousands of taels a month, and in good times it can be more than 2000. She knows the profits here, so she doesn't feel surprised.

Let the licorice clean a basket of lychees and lead them to the Waterside Courtyard. The elder brother has been busy with the future for the past few days.In this era, it is not necessary to take the road of imperial examinations and military generals. If the family background is good and the character is good, you can also be recommended by several respected adults to be officials.

Of course, this is very strict, and the general selection can only start from the ninth- and eighth-class officials, which are not even counted as sesame-sized officials. At the first level, you can be promoted to a ninth-rank official official if you are promoted to the first class, and it will take 30 years to survive this pass. If you make meritorious service, you can also be promoted exceptionally.

Jiang Rui is lucky now, he has been recommended by several adults, and he has become a top-notch astronomy student.

I started working two days ago, and I went to Yingmao early this morning. Only Mrs. Lin and her sister-in-law are left in the Shuixie courtyard. Mrs. Lin is not an evil mother-in-law. There is no need for Zheng Xiuxiu to get up early every day to say hello. of.

Zheng Xiuxiu is a filial person, she wakes up early every day and asks Lin to accompany her to have breakfast, and then goes back to her room after talking for a while.

Yu Zhu'er led the licorice, and the licorice carried the wooden box to the Shuixie courtyard, and told the maid to find her sister-in-law, and the little maid led her to Zheng Xiuxiu's wing, where she was making clothes for Jiang Rui at the moment. In addition to knowing medical skills, she is also very dexterous. She knows how to be a female celebrity. Seeing Yuzhu'er, she put down her work, "Yuzhu is here. I have visited you these few days and always said that you are resting, so it is not easy to bother you."

Yuzhu'er said sweetly, "Jiaojiao was a little tired a few days ago, she slept for three days before recovering, which made my sister-in-law laugh."

Zheng Xiuxiu burst out laughing, pulled Yuzhu to hug the little girl, "Why is Yuzhu so attractive, my sister-in-law is rare."

Yuzhu also said softly, "Jiaojiao is also very fond of sister-in-law." Then she turned to Licorice and ordered, "Bring the lychees here."

"Sister-in-law, this is a newly arrived lychee, try it, it's delicious." Yu Zhu'er peeled a mouthful by herself, the flesh was white and creamy, just looking at it made her mouth water.

Zheng Xiuxiu ate one, the flesh was fresh and sweet, she said with a smile, "I happen to be able to make a lychee meat, and now I don't have water chestnuts, so I can wait a few months to make this, but sister-in-law's cooking is delicious, why don't you show your hands at night Show Yuzhu."
