Cyan Lotus of Space Clearance

Chapter 122 Happiness has to be won by yourself
"Yuan Shou, where's the fourth sister-in-law?"

Glancing at the eighteenth elder brother who didn't belong, Hong Ye slightly raised his eyebrows: "I'm taking sister Lin to Prince Jane's mansion."

It's really bad luck, Yinzhu's eyes darkened, and he sat down: "Little sister-in-law often takes Daiyu out recently?"

"Uncle Eighteen," Hong Ye gracefully put away his pen, and said slowly, "You can no longer call Sister Lin by her name directly, it's not good for her boudoir reputation. Sister Lin is 12 years old this year, and it's almost time to talk. When kissing, it is always inconvenient for Mrs. Lin to be a big man. Doesn’t my mother-in-law help to worry about it? She also watched Sister Lin grow up, right? Son."

ah?Yinyou was in a state of confusion, and didn't know what he was talking about: "She, doesn't she need to participate in the draft?" The ancestors of the Lin family were also bannermen. The characters are used as Chinese surnames.And as early as the Shunzhi Dynasty, there was a regulation that all the daughters of Manchu, Mongolian and Han Eight Banners officials, aged between 13 and 17, must participate in the draft every three years. Why is Daiyu only 12 years old...

"Uncle Shiba doesn't know? Back then, Mr. Lin was transferred from Lianghuai Salt Transport Envoy to Beijing Central Academy to be a bachelor in charge of the Imperial Academy, not only because it was related to... the second uncle and..., even the death of Mrs. Lin... was also related "Hong Ye spoke vaguely, but Yin Yu's heart trembled when he heard it. He naturally knew about it. Back then when the crown prince was abolished, there were so many battles for the reserve. How many officials accidentally destroyed their homes and killed countless people. Lin Ruhai However, he was able to be smoothly transferred from an important position in charge of the salt transportation between the two Huaihe Rivers to central Beijing as a noble man. From the second-rank Hanlin Academy in charge of the bachelor, it can be seen that he is a confidant who is valued by the emperor's father, but he didn't expect that there would be dead people in all of this. Mrs. Lin's factor is in it. "Lord Lin has a deep love for Mrs. Lin, and on the other hand, because a pair of children who are still young do not want to reunite, they asked Huang Mafa to exempt Sister Lin from the draft, and worried that Sister Lin did not have a suitable female elder upbringing. My aunt Ma then asked my mother-in-law to take Sister Lin over to take care of and teach her... So, Sister Lin doesn't have to participate in the three-year draft."

As he spoke, he looked at the eighteen elder brothers who suddenly appeared anxious and worried, and said, "That's why my mother-in-law often brings sister Lin to the parties of those noble ladies... Of course, she is also very careful. Uncle Eighteen, don’t worry if you have picked it.”

Why don't you care?

Yinyu was even more worried. He thought he had two years to wait, but he didn't expect that Lin Daiyu didn't have to participate in the draft at all... Then what should he do?Last year, it was hard for Er Niang to push back the marriage proposal on the grounds that she was weak, but her desire to refer to herself as a concubine Ge Ge has not diminished. After rejecting her so many times, Er Niang has already become suspicious, so she almost called The imperial doctor diagnosed his pulse and boiled soup to mend his body... No wonder that boy Lin Jingyu looked at him strangely. He must have noticed his own intentions in the past few years, but he has never taken any strong actions. The two of them have reached their age again In terms of the age of my relatives, it's no wonder that these days when I go to him, I always shirk or dismiss myself hastily.

"What should I do? What should I do?" Ask the fourth sister-in-law not to take Daiyu out?What excuse?In what name did he ask Daiyu to wait for him?He can't be that selfish...

"My mother-in-law has a good impression of Cheng An from Prince Jian's family. He is the second son of the direct line. He looks more handsome than Prince Jane, and has both civil and military skills... Prince Jian's Fujin has been with my mother for a long time. If Sister Lin marries, there is no need to worry about it. Taking on the responsibility of the eldest daughter-in-law without fear of being disliked by the mother-in-law..."

"No!" Yinzhu turned around and stared at him, "Cheng'an has a romantic temper, Daiyu will not be happy marrying him!"

"Then you will be happy to be married to Uncle Shiba?" Hong Ye ignored his appearance that he was about to eat himself, and sighed, "Since Uncle Shiba has the heart, he should work hard to prevent others from seeing each other." Sister Lin is impossible, without Chengan there are others, how much can you stop, and how long can you stop, in two years it will be the draft, when Huang Mafa will point out Fujin for you, you Can you refuse?"

The Eighteenth Uncle's temper was really protected by Huang Mafa too honestly, he was talented and learned, but he didn't learn half of those twists and turns—maybe he knew it too, but he subconsciously stayed away from it. Those, after all, he has an emperor who dotes on him and a smart and capable brother who protects him and Erniang in front.And his favor these years also shows that Huang Mafa really likes to have such a pure son.

Yinyou was stunned, with a trace of sadness flashing in his eyes, he sat down slumped, and said: "You are right, I can't even make decisions about my own marriage..."

"Of course if you don't work hard, you won't have a chance." Hong Ye said flatly.Lin Daiyu's sister and brother have often lived in Prince Yong's Mansion these years, and often played with them. Their relationship is not much different from their own. From his point of view, Lin Daiyu and Yinyu are very good at both temperament and learning. The only obstacle is that Yinyou is the prince's elder brother, and the marriage still needs Kangxi's nod, and the concubine Wang is happy.

Yinyou's eyes lit up: "What can you do?" Hongye has always had a lot of ideas since he was a child, maybe he has a way to solve his current predicament.

"Uncle Shiba can ask Huang Mafa for an order directly, and the empress can also speak directly. The ancestors of the Lin family are also marquises, and Lord Lin's official position is even more noble. The daughter of the Lin family is also worthy of being the prince's son Fujin."

Although the concubine Wang has been favored by Huang Mafa these years, she is a Han concubine after all, and her status is not high. Even if the draft refers to marriage to the eighteenth uncle, it may not be able to point to a better-looking family than Sister Lin.Furthermore, with Huang Mafa and Empress' love for Shiba Shu, they will also consider his wishes.

"It's just that it's not in line with etiquette. Uncle Shiba had better ask Huang Mafa and the empress as a son. Also, I should first ask my mother to help her, so that she can take Sister Lin to Aunt Ukuma's as much as possible." Filial piety, let the empress see more sister Lin, with her appearance and temperament, the empress must also like it."

"But Huang Ama has already agreed to Mrs. Lin, so that Daiyu can be exempted..."

"Uncle Shiba is so stupid. Who stipulated that the prince's marriage must go through the draft? As long as the emperor doesn't object, you can openly invite me, Ama, or any uncle to the Lin residence to propose marriage... Sister Lin's marriage, Lin Your Excellency will not ignore Sister Lin's wishes."

"Okay, let me try." There were two touches of blush on the white jade-like handsome face, his eyes were shining brightly, Yin Yu clenched his fists tightly, and he had to do it if he couldn't do anything, he couldn't just sit and watch For the sweetheart to marry someone else.

"Gu Card." Hong Chen's little head popped out of the window, with a strange expression on his face, "I heard that Uncle Shiba likes Sister Lin—"

Yinyou strode forward and covered his mouth: "Little ancestor, don't yell!" Feeling embarrassed, flustered and sweet, so many people know what's on his mind...

Hongchen rolled his eyes and slapped his hand away, "Then what will Uncle Shiba give in exchange?"

This kid is so strong!Yin Yun took a deep breath and let go of his hand.

"Ankang, come in." Hongye's face darkened, and he was even more displeased when he saw him jumping in from the window: "What kind of behavior are you doing, why don't you apologize to Uncle Shiba!"

When my brother was young, he didn't go up trees, dig birds and go down to ponds to catch fish. Hongchen complained, but he still respected this brother very much. There was nothing he could do about it. Although his strength was great, his brother's force value was higher, so he couldn't beat him. The prank has no effect at all, either being seen through or my brother is not afraid at all, but the next morning when I practice in the morning, I will practice very miserably... Hey, I have to bow my head. "Uncle Eighteen, I'm sorry."

Yinyou also felt very sorry for this nephew who looked like the emperor's father. Hearing this, he touched his little head and said softly, "It's okay, Ankang's birthday is coming soon. Uncle Shiba will give you a pony, okay?"

Hongchen's eyes lit up: "Is it the same as my brother's 'Fast Wind'?"

Haifeng is the maroon pony that Yinzhen gave to Hong Ye before, and after living in the space with the good horse that Yinzhen gave to Su Yierha for a period of time, it is even more magnificent.Hongchen admired it for a long time, and asked Yinzhen and Su Yierha for a horse of his own, but unfortunately he was young, and the two adults did not listen to his request.

"Same horse as Gale."

"That's great, thank you Uncle Eighteen." Hong Chen narrowed his eyes with a smile. His birthday is on the same day as Huang Mafa's, and it will be less than half a month away. "By the way, Er Niang and Sister Lin are back, let me ask my brother to go to Duozaixuan for dinner, and Uncle Shiba will come with you?"

Yin Yun blushed and coughed slightly, but he just acquiesced.

Hong Ye pulled Hong Chen up and asked, "What kind of food is Er Niang going to cook?"

"I don't know, sister and sister Lin also went together, maybe there are dishes made by them too..." Hongchen, a little ghost, glanced at Yinyou, who was even more flushed, hehe, Uncle Shiba must be very happy.

To be able to eat the dishes made by Daiyu herself... Yinzhu is really looking forward to and excited.

When the three of them arrived at Duozaixuan, Yinzhen also arrived.

Duozaixuan eats three meals a day, except for Su Yierha who is not used to eating twice a day. Like many modern parents, she feels that snacks cannot be eaten as a meal, and worries that her children will be hungry (this is impossible ) or poor nutrition.And this eating habit was gradually accepted by Yinzhen, he felt that it was not troublesome and he could arrange his time better, and he had more energy to do things (this person hardly eats snacks when doing things), and then, his change, the whole Yongzheng The people in the Prince's Mansion followed suit... Then, many families in the capital also implemented the three meals a day system.

In fact, in this era, many wealthy families have already practiced three meals a day, but people are used to following the old habits. The rich and noble families don’t care about one meal or two. Anyway, they can eat snacks at any time to satisfy their hunger, while poor families It is good to have a full meal, and cooking two meals a day is also a formality, so most families still use the system of two meals a day.

Wu Sidao actually came with Yinzhen.Hong Ye and the others gave him the teacher's salute, and he returned the salute, stroking the short beard under his chin and smiling: "I heard from Fourth Master that Duozaixuan has special dishes tonight, so I came here specially to eat."

He has eaten too many dishes from Zaixuan, but Su Yierha made them and sent them to Yinzhen's Hongye and the others in the east garden, so he has been exposed... The food is really delicious, but it's a pity Only when Hongye Hongchen and the others go to the east side garden to study, he can eat a meal, and there is no such thing as class suspension. Sometimes listening to Hongye Hongchen and the others privately talking about what delicious food they ate, he suddenly feels more salivating. It's really painful to put on an appearance of being a teacher who is smiling and indifferent... It's really painful.Well, in the afternoon, I talked to Si Ye about the Northwest issue, and when the conversation was in full swing, I heard him say that it’s time for dinner, and I’m going to eat special dishes at the Duozhang Pavilion—they often talk about solving stomach problems in the East Garden, He followed with a cheeky face.

The fourth master must have seen through his thoughts, but it doesn't matter, he is not a god, as a highly valued staff member, if he is too perfect, he will be suspected. It is normal to have shortcomings and desires. Anyway, he does not love money, sex or love Name... love to eat, very good.

"Sir, do you know what today's special dish is?" Hong Chen asked innocently. If Wu Sidao didn't see the cunning hidden in his slender eyes, he would really be bluffed by him, but his brothers and sisters have been meeting?With an innocent little face of "nothing to do with me" and causing harm to others, his morality seems a little too shallow.

"I don't know, but I'm very interested." Mr. Wu smiled calmly.

"It's a snail, sir, have you ever eaten a snail?"

Wu Sidao's smiling face froze, snail?Is it the snail he saw?Can that stuff be eaten?Puzzled eyes looked at Yinzhen, who had been calm all year round.

Yinzhen nodded slightly, the reason why he knew was because he heard Su Yierha ordered Xingui to put the snails in the water to rinse last night.

"Snails are still edible?" The eighteenth elder brother asked the question. Although he is very confident in the cooking skills of the fourth sister-in-law, he still feels weird... Snails, you can see them on some plants every rainy day Little thing, soft...throat seems to be a little itchy, uh.

Because of the gift of the horse, Hongchen’s affection for Yinzhu soared: “It’s definitely edible, those snails look good, they’re as big as an orange,” he compared, “The little house (snail shell) is crystal clear. It’s very beautiful, and the snail is also white and fat..."

After he described it like this, the people present immediately felt much better, at least they were different from ordinary snails.

Should it be said that people are small and fearless? As long as Erniang says it can be eaten, this little guy dares to eat... He bought it, tsk.

Unexpectedly, Elder Eighteen and Mr. Wu would also come to eat, Su Yierha gave Xin Gui a look, and asked her to go to the small kitchen to cook a few more dishes, and led Chizhu to divide the dishes between two tables. I brought Daiyu and Bingya to the table.
