The son-in-law of a prosperous family

Fang Huai sat down opposite him, propped up his chin, smiled, and watched Zhao Yunchuan eat heartily.

The flickering candlelight casts a warm yellow hue into the room.

When Zhao Yunchuan had almost finished eating, Fang Huai spoke up, "What interesting things happened at the palace banquet today? Tell me about it."

Zhao Yunchuan put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and told Fang Huai in detail how he cracked the magic square and the change in everyone's attitude.

Hearing that Censor Wei was humiliated, Fang Huai couldn't help but chuckle: "This Censor Wei is really not a good person. He has finally hit a snag this time."

Then, he added with a worried look, "However, he suffered a loss this time, and I'm afraid he won't let you go easily in the future."

Zhao Yunchuan reached out and gently patted the back of Fang Huai's hand, comforting him: "Don't worry, I know what's going on. His Majesty appreciates me very much, even if he wants to take action, he has to think twice. Besides, I still have this purple gold jade pendant to protect me."

As he spoke, he took out a purple gold jade pendant from his bosom and placed it on the table. The jade pendant shone with a warm luster under the candlelight.

Fang Huai picked up the jade pendant and examined it carefully. "Although this jade pendant is nice, it is just an object after all. The court is full of twists and turns, so you must be careful. My husband, I don't ask you to be successful, I just hope you can be safe."

After Zhao Yunchuan finished his meal, the family went to the main hall to see the emperor's reward.

Just now, the guard put all the rewards in the main room.

The family filed into the main hall, and saw a dazzling array of rewards placed by the guards under the candlelight, with glittering silks, crystal clear porcelains, and warm and elegant jades.

Bai Guihua's eyes lit up instantly, and she wiped her hands on her clothes unconsciously, and then carefully stroked a piece of Shu brocade, muttering: "This material is really smooth, I will make a piece of clothes for Huai'er, it will definitely look good."

Fang Dashan stood with his hands behind his back, pacing around the gifts. His eyes fell on a pair of bronze incense burners. He nodded repeatedly and exclaimed, "The Emperor's gift is truly extraordinary."

He looked calm on the surface, but he was actually very happy inside. God, he was also a man who had seen the emperor's reward. Even after he died, he could still brag about this to his subordinates.

Just as Fang Dashan was daydreaming happily, Zhao Yunchuan's eyes swept to the corner of the main room, where there was a large box with exquisite carvings.

He walked over quickly, opened the lid, and from under the layers of silk and satin, he pulled out an ancient brocade box. The brocade box was wrapped with gold wire and the corners were inlaid with turquoise, and it was obvious that it was worth a lot of money.

"What is this?" Bai Guihua couldn't suppress her curiosity, so she walked over quickly, staring at the brocade box with her eyes wide open, without blinking.

Fang Dashan also walked over quickly, rubbing his hands unconsciously, his face full of anticipation.

Zhao Yunchuan took a deep breath and slowly opened the brocade box.

Inside the box, a yellowed title deed lay quietly, with a set of drawings neatly stacked next to it.

"This is... a title deed!"

Bai Guihua and Fang Dashan were bewildered when they heard this. Bai Guihua stretched her neck to look at the brocade box, then looked at Zhao Yunchuan, wondering, "Chuanzi, what's written on the deed? Where is this land?"

Zhao Yunchuan raised his eyes, glanced at everyone in the room, took a deep breath, and said word by word: "Dad, Mom, this is the deed to Suzaku Street!"

In an instant, the room was dead silent and the air seemed to freeze.

Bai Guihua's eyes widened and she covered her mouth with her hands in disbelief;

Fang Dashan's body swayed, and he almost lost his balance. He calmed himself down and asked stutteringly, "Chuan... Chuanzi, what did you say? Suzaku Street?"

Although they had just arrived in the capital, the name of Suzaku Street was well-known - it was the most prosperous area in the capital, where dignitaries gathered. It was difficult for ordinary people to even get close to it, let alone own a house there.

The room was dead silent for a moment. Bai Guihua was the first to come to her senses. Her voice became sharp due to excitement: "Oh my God, Suzaku Street! Chuanzi, why did the emperor reward you with such an expensive house?"

Her hands were shaking slightly, but her eyes never left the deed.

Fang Dashan calmed himself down, frowned, and paced back and forth.

Before Zhao Yunchuan could speak, he suddenly slapped his thigh, his face full of pride: "Why didn't I think of this! Our Chuanzi is so amazing, His Majesty must be impressed by our Chuanzi's talent!"

Bai Guihua nodded hurriedly, her eyes becoming brighter and brighter: "Yes, yes, yes! Chuanzi is so outstanding, and he works for His Majesty. His Majesty was so happy that he rewarded him with this house. Didn't you see the title deed and the brocade box? They are so exquisite."

Fang Huai walked to Zhao Yunchuan's side, took his arm, and smiled: "I knew that my husband is talented."

Zhao Yunchuan looked at his family members talking to each other and smiled with relief.

Just as he was about to speak, Fang Dashan rushed in and said, "Chuanzi, you must be more attentive in the court in the future. His Majesty values ​​you so much, you must not live up to this favor."

Bai Guihua carefully put the deed back into the brocade box and said with emotion: "Our family is where we are today, all thanks to Chuanzi. From now on, we must be careful in everything we do and not bring shame to Chuanzi."

The family sat down together, excitedly unfolded the blueprints, and carefully examined the house that would soon belong to them.

On the drawing, pavilions and towers are arranged in an orderly manner, paths in the garden are winding, a pond occupies a corner, and even the layout of the house is marked in great detail.

Fang Huai pointed to a courtyard on the blueprint and said with a smile, "Dad, Mom, when we move in, I'm going to plant all kinds of flowers here. By then, the whole garden will be filled with fragrance and it will be absolutely beautiful."

Bai Guihua's eyes lingered on the blueprint for a long time, her eyes reddened, and her voice choked with sobs: "We used to live in a small, shabby house in the countryside, and we didn't even have money to fix the leaking roof. I never thought that now, I could live in a big house on Suzaku Street. It's like a dream."

Fang Dashan reached out and gently patted Bai Guihua's shoulder, his eyes also moistened: "Mother, this is all because of Chuanzi's success. Our hard days are over."

Zhao Yunchuan felt a warm feeling in his heart as he looked at his family's happy faces.

He thought for a moment and then said, "We will move in after the New Year. In the next few days, I will hire some craftsmen to renovate the house according to this blueprint and buy some furniture."

Fang Dashan nodded heavily, his face full of solemnity: "Chuanzi is very thoughtful. However, although we need to decorate the house well, we can't be too ostentatious, so as not to arouse jealousy."

Bai Guihua nodded repeatedly and carefully reminded him: "Yes, you must keep a low profile. Let's live a down-to-earth life and don't cause any trouble."

The family members talked to each other, immersed in the beautiful vision of future life.
