Weak Concubine [Qing Wear + Red House]

"Five, five thousand acres?" After getting the land deed, Jinyao was shocked by the number on it at first sight.

"Well, is it missing? Then I will add some tomorrow."

"It's not less, it's too much, second brother, why would you think of buying so many?"

She thought it was only a thousand acres at most, but she didn't expect that her second brother would buy it for five thousand acres, so he wouldn't take over all the prosperous areas in the future, right?

No, after buying so much, will the emperor build the palace and make a detour in the future? This will change the location. She may not be so valuable with so many lands, and the loss is not small.

However, there will always be something to earn, and this thought is reassuring.

Nian Gengyao was relieved when he saw that she didn't think she bought too little.

"It's only 1 taels in total. Why bother to plan and buy it, but you have to arrange what you plan to plant first, or you won't have enough time to plant in spring next year." Taxes are also collected in barren mountains and wild mountains.

"Uh, I can't be in a hurry. I have to plan it out. I still need to do a field survey. I need to hire someone to do it. Hehe, I may have to trouble the second brother, but don't worry, the two of us bought this land together." Yes, when the benefits are generated, we will share them equally with our brothers and sisters."

Nian Gengyao patted the top of her head amusedly:

"Okay, I'll just wait for my sister to share the money, just let me know if there's anything I can help you with, don't be polite with the second brother."

Jin Yao smiled and rolled her eyes, then nodded.

How comfortable she is living these days, she can get what she wants, and her family still dotes on her. It would be great if she could not marry, but it's a pity that no matter how much her family loves her, she will not agree.

The busy days go by quickly, and it’s almost time for the Ice Festival.

This year's Ice Play Festival and Laba came together. Jinyao picked up the porridge with one hand, and picked up the posts from the little sisters with the other. They made an appointment for the content of the fun, and everyone acted together.

Going out in winter is a hassle, and the spare clothes you bring have to be packed in a box. Jinyao is wearing a big fur coat, a thick cape, and a pair of skates.

When we arrived in Houhai, there were already many people on the field. Laughter, shouting, and playing noise made this usually quiet place more chaotic than a vegetable market.

The Ice Play in Houhai is not organized by the government, nor is there any performance by the children of the Eight Banners. It is only organized by the children of the rich and powerful in the capital. They come here in small groups to skate, play, etc., and ordinary people are not prohibited from coming here. Many, ordinary people would not want to invite disasters for themselves, almost none of them came.

Jinyao found the place that her friends had made an appointment with, and two or three people had already arrived, and everyone greeted each other.

"Didn't Gege Fangqi go to Bingxi in the palace?" Seeing Fangqi Gege Jinyao in Prince Kang's mansion was quite surprised.

The other girls on the side laughed:

"Haha, we also asked her this question just now, if someone else comes over later, we will ask her again."

Fang Qi looked helpless but still had a good temper and explained:

"Every year in the palace is about the same, and it's not easy to bring too many people in. It happened that my sister wanted to see it, so I let her go. I prefer to be with you. Every year is like a year, and next year will be the next year." Who is missing, let’s get together as long as we can.”

"That's true. After the new year, I have two good sisters who are going to get married, and they are not married to Jingli. After this, it will be difficult to see each other again!" Another girl sighed, both for friends and for myself.

"Okay, okay, what are these spoilers doing? Let's wait for Jin Miao and the others. If they don't come in five minutes, we'll end the game by ourselves."

"That's a good idea. I'll change my shoes first."

Just as he was talking about the Jinmiao brothers and sisters coming over, when Rong Hao saw Jinyao, he couldn't care less about anything, so he ran over to say hello:

"Junior Sister, you came early!"

Jinyao restrained her smile and nodded distantly:

"Senior brother is here too. My second brother and the others are in the south, and they were still looking for you just now."

Rong Hao seemed to be drenched in a basin of cold water. He was a little bit shocked, and forced a smile:

"That's right, I'm also looking for Brother Nian, so I'll go there first." It was inconvenient for many people to say anything, Rong Hao walked away a little depressed.

How could the few people who played well beside him not have any guesses, just seeing Jinyao's reaction, no one asked her about this or joked about it ignorantly.

Jin Miao seemed to have something on her mind, and she was not as active as usual, she greeted Jin Yao and the others and went to change her skates.

Jinyao thought for a while, but she still didn't take the initiative to find her, so let her pretend that she was still angry because she was petty.

So she likes to be a child. The world of a child is different from that of an adult. If you simply like it, you like it, and if you don’t like it, you don’t like it. There are not so many twists and turns.

Now that she is an adult, she has to consider all aspects when thinking about problems, and her childhood playmates have to gradually drift away.

Thinking of the girl Jin Yao who lamented that her friend was about to break up when she got married just now, she smiled wryly. She used to think that Jin Miao and Jin Miao would only break up when they got married.

"What are you shushing and sighing about, I'm not afraid that my aunt will say you again if she finds out."

It turned out that Jin Miao had changed her skates and was standing next to Jin Yao, turning her face away unnaturally.

"Didn't it say 'sorry about writing new words', I was looking for inspiration, but when you interrupted me, the inspiration disappeared again, so I sighed for nothing!"

"...It was my fault for co-authoring!"

The two looked at each other and laughed.

The gloom on Jin Miao's face dissipated quite a bit, and she blamed:

"You are a small-minded person. I remembered that idea until now, and you ignored me if I didn't take the initiative to talk to you. Do you really want to break up with me?"

"I'm not easy to preach, I'm afraid of being annoying."

The smile on Jin Miao's face disappeared, and she sighed in disappointment:

"You said it would be great if people could not grow up!"

"No, no, I don't miss my childhood as much as you do. Could it be that I haven't had enough milk and want to be a baby?"

"You want to be a milk doll!"

The two started chasing and fighting.

There were clapping applause at the side, Tong Jiamin said with a smile:

"These two finally reconciled. Look at their awkwardness, so much so that I don't know how to persuade them to make peace!"

Fang Qi pursed her lips and smiled, but did not answer her words.

"Let's go down and play too. It's inconvenient to skate when there are too many people."

"Okay, okay, let's go after Jin Yao and Jin Miao and the others."

Due to the influence of the living environment, few of the ladies are really innocent. Jin Yao and Jin Miao had conflicts and no one persuaded them to make peace. It was not because of weak feelings and wanted to watch the fun, but because of the reason behind their estrangement, it was inconvenient to intervene. It was unexpected that the Tong family, a dignified descendant, could raise such an innocent girl.

Obviously, it can be seen from Tong Jiamin'er that the Tong family intends to let her enter the palace or the uterus, otherwise any headed wife would marry her son such a daughter-in-law.

This time, the people who came out to play were all about the same age. Except for the clan Gege, everyone else was going to participate in the draft, that is, they were in the same group as Jinyao, and they would participate in the general election after the new year.

They may be competitors in the future, or they may still be friends, but no matter what, they are like-minded now, and their friendship now can be regarded as laying the foundation for expanding their network after they get married in the future, but they have used a bit of sincerity.

Although there are many dandies in the capital, but dandies are often the most able to act based on their eyes. There are many girls and daughter-in-laws on the ice today, but none of the dandies dare to go and watch and molested. You must know that all the brothers, uncles and nephews present here are there. Coupled with the fact that the relatives are connected with each other, if a bad life is not here, there is nowhere to look for it.

So the girls had a lot of fun.

Tired of playing, I went back to my carriage to change my shoes and clothes. Many stoves had already been set up on the snowy ground to make tea for the masters of each family. We had some warm snacks with the hot tea, and everyone sat and talked together.

"After the new year, there will be a draft. Who knows which one will be ahead in this year's draft or Chunwei?"

"Chun Wei is in front, and the time of Chun Wei has been set long ago, but there is no difference in the draft time being a few days earlier or a few days later."

"How can there be no difference? The later the day, the more comfortable I can be at home."

This statement was approved by all the girls present.

Those who can go out to play at will are favored at home. Naturally, they don't want to marry and go to the husband's house to serve their parents-in-law and sister-in-law.

"I really envy Yalan, her family has given her an exemption from the election, so she can marry herself!"

Including Jinyao, all the girls who were going to run for the election made sounds of envy.

"By the way, Jinyao, your sisters are all about the same age. Why are you the only one participating in the draft?"

Jinyao didn't expect that the topic would turn to her, so she glanced at the girl:

"My family just entered the flag a few years ago. Before that, I didn't have to participate in the election. The eldest and second sisters got married when they were old. After entering the flag, my fourth sister got married again and applied for exemption Originally, I should have asked Grace to be exempted from the election, but because the emperor mentioned it, I was going to participate. The next two younger sisters should be exempt from the election."

After hearing this, everyone understood that the Nian family had originally thought that Jinyao was specially trained to enter the palace. With this talent, appearance, and character, entering the palace must be favored and benefit the family.

Unexpectedly, it turned out that it was because of the sacred order that they all have political and political minds, so they naturally understood the meaning of the unfinished words. This is because the emperor is worried about his important ministers, and this will not bring all the sons and daughters under the eyes of the capital.

The girl who was still a little wary of Jinyao and was about to enter the palace was relieved now, and her smile was a little genuine.

"Girl, the second master asked someone to say that he had built a fire to burn meat, and asked if he wanted to light a fire for you as well."

Jin Yao looked at the little sisters:

"Well, girls, do you want to have a bonfire feast?"

"Yes, yes, yes, how can you not want such fun!"

"Stop it, the ash from the bonfire is too much, my big clothes are white, and I just wore the new ones for the first time!"

"What are you afraid of? When you sit on the vent, the smoke won't blow on you."

There were chattering, some agreed and some opposed, and in the end most of them agreed, Jinyao asked Jinling to send a message to Nian Gengyao to help them set up.

Fang Qi said enviously:

"Your second brother is really careful. He still remembers to care about whether you are cold or not when he comes out to play. My brother is a wild horse when he comes out. He doesn't even remember where he is at night, let alone me."

"Yeah, Jinyao, your second brother likes to play with you when he's so much older than you, unlike my brother, since he was young, if he was asked to go out to play and take me with him, he would find me annoying."

"My brother also thinks I'm annoying. When I was young, I could beat him up and dare not leave me alone. Now I'm too old to beat him up. Fortunately, I have friends around, so I don't need him anymore."

"Haha... I didn't realize you were so tough when you were young!"

Everyone laughed together, all Jinyao could do was smile happily, there was no need to answer.

The good brother Nian Gengyao is naturally considerate in doing things. He not only asked someone to light the fire, but also sent a lot of marinated meat, which can be roasted directly.

All the girls were happy to do it themselves, laughing and laughing, baking anything.

When it was almost noon, there was a sound of horseshoes in the distance, and someone came over again. Everyone was surprised. Most of the people who wanted to come to play on the ice came in the morning. Why did they come after they were almost gone?

Following the eyes of everyone, a group of people riding horses appeared in the field of vision. After seeing the person coming, everyone was surprised and got up quickly.
