After time travel, I ate glutinous rice bran in ancient times

As everyone was talking, they naturally talked about the marriage of Chunsheng's brother and the eldest sister.

Chunsheng looked at everyone and said with a smile: "I have a good news that I haven't had time to tell you yet."

"Oh, Brother Chunsheng, what's the good news?" The second sister asked hurriedly.

The eldest sister also smiled at Chunsheng. Chunsheng habitually bowed towards the capital and said, "The emperor heard that I was coming back to get married, so he granted me an extra month's vacation, and in addition to the gift, he also gave me a reward of 100 taels of silver!"

Everyone was delighted when they heard this. Mrs. Lu said happily, "This is truly a great favor from the Emperor!"

"Chunsheng, you wrote back saying that you could only stay at home for half a month this time."

"My mother was thinking, I came all the way back, why was I only given half a month's leave?"

"Oh, I didn't expect the emperor to be so understanding and grant you another month's vacation."

"That's great, now we can spend more time together as a family."

"Yes, half a month is too fast, one more month would be much better." Wang also nodded and smiled: "Otherwise, after he gets married to his eldest sister, he will not stay at home for a few days and will have to go to the capital."

Wang Yugui was also very happy. Looking at the situation, Chunsheng has a good relationship with the emperor!

Wang Yugui smiled and said, "This way, we can get married on the eighth day of the first lunar month. Chunsheng and Damei can stay at home until the fifteenth day of the second lunar month. That's great!"

"What about my cousin's husband, Mr. Zhou? Can he also have an extra month off?" Miss Tan asked

The second sister heard this and said hurriedly, "Sister-in-law, Chunsheng is here to marry, so the emperor gave him special permission. Master Zhou is not going to marry, so he definitely can't do that!"

After saying that, he looked at Chunsheng, who smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou, although he can't take an extra month off, he has also asked for an extra half month's leave. He will return to Beijing after the first month of the lunar year."

As he said that, Chunsheng looked at Wang Yugui and Shuisheng: "Shuisheng, Mr. Zhou will come to Wangtian County on the eighth day of the first lunar month to attend our wedding banquet, and by the way, he will come to see you and Brother Yugui!"

"Oh, is that so?" Shuisheng was very happy to hear that. Wang Yugui was also very happy and sighed: "Oh, it's been a few years. I wonder if my old friend is still as heroic as ever. Ah, haha!"

"Ha, brother, Brother Zhou is still as heroic as ever." Chunsheng heard this and laughed.

He looked at Miss Tan and said, "Sister-in-law, Madam Zhou and Mr. and Mrs. Ling will also come with us."

"They came to attend Shuisheng and I's wedding banquet, and they came to visit your father, mother, and you, my sister-in-law!"

"Oh, really?" Miss Tan was very surprised: "Uncle and his family are coming to Wangtian County? Why haven't I heard my parents mention it?"

The eldest sister laughed: "Sister-in-law, could it be that Miss Lingyu wanted to give you a surprise, so she didn't let them tell you in advance?"

"Well, that's possible." Miss Tan nodded and smiled: "No wonder my parents said they won't go to Huaizhou Prefecture to celebrate the Lantern Festival this year."

"I thought they weren't going because they had to attend Chunsheng and Shuisheng's wedding, but it turns out that my uncle and his family are coming over!"

"Speaking of which, Master Ling and Master Zhou have taken good care of our Chunsheng." After hearing this, Mrs. Lu also smiled and said, "This time they are here, I have to thank them very much!"

"Mom, Master Ling is coming to Wangtian County, not to our Xiaoao Village. You may not be able to see him." Shuisheng smiled and reminded his mother.

After hearing this, Lu frowned slightly: "Ah, aren't they going to our Xiaoao Village?"

Then he looked at Chunsheng and said, "Chunsheng, it's a rare occasion for Mr. Ling and Mr. Zhou to come over, so why don't we invite them to our house?"

Wang Yugui smiled after hearing this and said, "Aunt Lu, I can't say whether Master Ling will go to Xiaoao Village or not, but Master Zhou, he should go."

"As for me, I will invite him to accompany me to the wedding!"

"Together we will see the bride off?" Chunsheng heard this and smiled, "Well, that's fine too. When he was engaged to Miss Ling, the three of us also accompanied him, haha!"

……

After the meal, they drank tea and chatted. Chunsheng asked his followers to bring in the gifts he brought back from the capital and distribute them to everyone.

Starting with Lu and Wang, the two mothers each received a pair of exquisitely crafted gold bracelets.

Miss Tan and her two elder and second younger sisters all received a set of the best rouge and powder in the capital.

Xiao Xiaojie received a set of New Year's brocade cotton-padded jacket, plus a little monkey jade zodiac pendant.

Shuisheng and Wang Yugui each received a jade fan and a set of four treasures of the study. In addition, Chunsheng also specially gave Wang Yugui a painting.

Wang Yugui opened it and frowned, "Why does this thing in the painting look a bit like the panda I drew?"

The eldest sister and the second sister hurried forward to take a look, and the eldest sister also frowned slightly: "Brother, I think they are not just somewhat similar, they are quite similar."

"But the panda in this painting doesn't seem as pretty as the one you drew!"

"Isn't it? The panda in this painting looks much more ferocious than our panda, and its teeth seem very sharp." The second sister said as she looked at the painting.

Miss Tan also came over, looked at the painting, and laughed: "Oh, brother, the panda in this painting is not as cute as the one you drew!"

After Wang and Lu looked at the paintings, they both said that none of them were as beautiful as Wang Yugui's.

"Brother, who painted this? Why did you buy it specially for Brother Yugui?" Shuisheng saw it and laughed: "Oh, it seems that the painting skills of the painters in Beijing are far inferior to Brother Yugui, haha!"

"What do you know?" Chunsheng looked at Shuisheng and said, "This is a real panda painting by a court painter!"

When Wang Yugui heard this, he was stunned. Is this a real panda picture painted by a court painter?

"Brother Chunsheng, are you saying that real pandas look like this?" The eldest sister looked at Chunsheng in confusion.

Chunsheng smiled and nodded: "Yes!"

"Impossible," the second sister suddenly shouted, and waved her hand, "Has this court painter ever seen a panda? What makes him say that he painted a real panda?"

Chunsheng listened and smiled at his second sister: "Second sister, this painter has really seen a panda."

"Not only has he seen it, I've seen it too!"

"Ah? Brother, you've seen it too?" Shuisheng was surprised: "Where did you see it?"

"I guess it's in the palace?" Wang Yugui suddenly spoke

Chunsheng looked at Wang Yugui and nodded: "Brother Yugui is really smart!"

"There are pandas in the palace?" The second sister was very surprised and suddenly slapped her head: "Oh, I remember, my brother seemed to have mentioned it before"

"It is said that the Emperor and the Queen Mother both like pandas very much!"

"Yes, I've heard my father talk about this too." Miss Tan smiled and nodded, "Chunsheng, are real pandas like the ones in the paintings?"

"Sister-in-law, yes." Chunsheng nodded. "It is exactly the same. This is a painting made by the court painter for the palace based on a real panda. It is not to be passed on to others."

"Then how did you get this painting?" Shuisheng asked hurriedly.

Chunsheng smiled and said, "This was given to me by the Emperor. He specifically asked me to bring it back to Brother Yugui, saying that he wanted Brother Yugui, a talented painter who draws pandas, to see a real panda!"

Wow, this relationship is a gift from the emperor. Wang Yugui smiled awkwardly: "Oh, the emperor's grace is so great, I am so unworthy of it!"

As he said this, he also imitated Chunsheng and bowed towards the capital.
