prosperous life

Ci'an Hall, General's Mansion, Beijing Chengcheng

Taking advantage of the sunshine outside the window, Zhang went through the gift list again. Thinking of the lively and festive scene of attending the Rongfeng family's wedding yesterday, Zhang's heart ached for her daughter Xiao Yuan again.

Xiao Hu hadn't passed the test a few times, so he was hit hard, especially before Xiao Pinzhi boasted about his eldest son's knowledge to others, which made Xiao Hu dare not go out.

Xiao Pinzhi also angered his wife and daughter because of this, the dowry to Xiao Yuan was not much more than what he sent Xiao Shuang to be a concubine in Prince An's Mansion.

It was Mrs. Xiao who proposed to separate the families and gave each granddaughter a dowry separately, which made Xiao Yuan's dowry more attractive.

Mrs. Xiao proposed that the second wife was the happiest when she proposed to split the family. Feng Jing's own dowry was enough for the second wife to eat and drink.

Dafang's General Zhenguo is a powerless official position, not a title, no matter Xiaohu or Xiaozhou, there is no possibility of inheriting the official position.

And according to the actions of the royal family, it is not bad for someone like Xiao Pinzhi to be able to provide for the elderly like this. According to the ministers, the promising heirs of the Xiao family should have taken up the burden long ago. The country cannot support these people for nothing.

Zhang herself did not have much dowry when she married to Xiao's family. Although there was no expense, it must be taken back in the future depending on the intention of her natal family.

Even if she adds to Xiao Yuan now, the Zhang family will not know what to think of her and Xiao Yuan when they see the expense list she reported back.

Especially Mr. Xiao's house was changed one after another, and he often went out to treat guests and eat wine. The big house's family background is not rich.

"Okay, this time I will try your strategy and answer and copy it out quickly, and give it to your father-in-law in a few days." Zhang Xian, looking at his son Zhang Xuyou, who is not in a good mood these days, beat him with words.

In fact, Zhang Xian's selfishness is to hope that the Rong family will give Zhang Xu a place as a tribute student.

The two sons of the Rong family can both go to the Imperial College to study, and the eldest son will naturally have a spot vacant if he joins the army, but Zhang Xian also understands that this is not to be said, otherwise the daughter-in-law will feel that the Zhang family is worthless.

In fact, Rong Anxian and Zhou Jing didn't think about sending Zhang Xuyou to the Imperial College.

But first, Zhang Xuyou's status and talent are not enough, so he will not be able to adapt to the Imperial College, and secondly, if he wants to go to the Imperial College without the test, there is only one place for nobles and official families above the third rank. The palace pleases the empress dowager, and the empress dowager asked the sage to reward her, but there is no reason to give gifts.

Zhang Xuyou nodded after hearing his father Zhang Xian's words.

Zhang Xuyou himself knew that not only his father-in-law and mother-in-law were unhappy with his performance at the wedding ceremony at Rong's house yesterday, but his wife Rong Ningzhu was also dissatisfied with him.

Shaking his spirits, Zhang Xuyou hurriedly copied the strategy and theory of the previous test, and planned to take his wife and son to his father-in-law and mother-in-law in a few days to improve his favorability.

I have to coax my wife well at night!

Zhang Xian looked at his son's performance and nodded, then walked out of the study to find his wife, Mrs. Zhang, to discuss their daughter's marriage.

When Zhang Xuyou stayed here for the imperial examination, Zhang Xian and Mrs. Zhang discussed buying the rented yard directly. The academy over Xuanyi Mansion was supervised by Mr. Zhang Er, and Mr. and Mrs. Zhang were going to bring two The daughter lives in Beijing.

In fact, after the Thousand Yuan Festival, someone came to the door to talk about marriage. No matter what, Mrs. Zhang thought it was the eldest daughter, but she didn't know it was the younger daughter. After thinking about it for a long time, Mrs. Zhang couldn't make up her mind.

Mrs. Zhang herself felt that the marriage was a good one, but she was not sure, so she simply wrote a letter to Mr. Zhang, and Mr. Zhang rushed to Beijing because of this.

Originally, Zhang Cuiyuan was young and had an older sister who shouldn't marry first, but after all, Zhang's family is not in Beijing, especially the other party's family background, Zhang Cuiyuan is really high-ranked to marry.

Zhang Cuiyuan's in-law's family is the Han family in the capital.

Mr. Han has no son and only two daughters, so he adopted a child from the clan named Han De to raise him as a grandson. The young master of the Han family was arranged by Mr. Han to study and prepare for future scientific examinations since he was a child.

However, the specific performance is subject to negotiation.

On the Thousand Yuan Festival, Han De met Zhang Cuiyuan and thought he liked it, so he went back and mentioned it to his grandfather.

After all, this Young Master Han was adopted, and his purpose was to provide for Mr. Han's pension. Even in the future, half of the assets of the Han family will be distributed to the clan. Of course, this does not prevent Mr. Han from spending money on his grandson's wedding.

There is still a month to do a wedding.

When Zhang Cuiying saw her mother, Mrs. Zhang, was summoned to the main house by her father's servant girl, she stood up and walked to the window. Many flowers bloomed in May, and some were planted in Zhang's yard, but Zhang Cuiying couldn't be moved by this in her heart. Color infection.

Looking at her younger sister Zhang Cuiyuan who was still sitting there embroidering sweet wedding dresses, Zhang Cuiying felt depressed for a while.

The weather was gradually getting hotter. During this period, Rong Ningzhu and her husband Zhang Xuyou came back once, because Zhang Xuyou would try before, and Rong Ningzhu hadn't been back to her natal home for a long time. The one who sent the wedding invitation didn't sit still for a while before going back.

Zhou Jing looked at Zhang's wedding invitation and asked, "This Han De... is the one from Mr. Han's family?"

"Yes, mother, this daughter-in-law has been mentioned by my brothers before. She is a half-playboy. She is usually uneducated and sometimes drinks flower wine." Feng Yuan replied.

"Sister-in-law is right. If it's true, that Han De is just an idler. Originally, Mr. Han hoped that he could take the imperial examination, but Han De couldn't do it. He didn't read the book several times. Quite a lot." Rong Ningjin was also very clear about those dudes, after all Rong Ningrui was considered a young Chu Qiao in Beijing, he had some prestige among the group of people, and he was generally well-informed.

Zhou Jing nodded after hearing this. It has nothing to do with the Rong family who the Zhang family is married to.

Thinking about the daughter who is taking care of her own childhood now, even though the daughter and son-in-law come back less often, she is sincere after all, and Rong Ningzhu also has considerations.

The husband's parents-in-law's thoughts are clear, but the Rong family is the Rong family and the Zhang family is the Zhang family. Rong Ningzhu is not the kind of shallow-sighted.

Zhou Jing is quite satisfied with his daughter's way of doing things. The young couples come to accompany each other in the end, and in the end, only the husband and wife support each other. It is better to take care of yourself honestly than anything else.

"The two of you can take care of the affairs of the house from now on. Brother Xian is not familiar with it. Brother Jin will help you get to know your sister-in-law well. Your father will enjoy the blessings and wait to have a grandson in the future." Zhou Jing said After taking a sip of tea, he smiled comfortably at his daughter-in-law.

Feng Xian blushed when he heard this, and he and Rong Ningrui got up late on the second day of their marriage. The couple tried it out for the first time on the wedding night, they were naturally gentle and affectionate, and they couldn't stop, but fortunately, both parents-in-law are very open-minded.

When Rong Ningrui returned home yesterday, she was warmly welcomed by the members of the Feng family.Feng Yuan is married to Rong Ningrui, and Feng Yuan is the one who treats Rong Ningrui well, especially Jiang can see that the youngest son is very happy.

During the day, the Feng family was warm to Rong Ningrui, and at night when Rong Ningrui came back, he was also very warm to Feng Xian, but the two of them got up late again this morning...

Rong Ningrui was about to go to the border. Feng Yuan took part in the imperial examination and got a ranking but was not conferred an official. Afterwards, the queen mother made him the township lord.

Because he planned to go to the border with her husband next year, Zhou Jing was very happy with Feng Xian's approach. A wife who can accompany her husband to the border is very rare.

Ordinary people would choose to stay in a prosperous place and wait for their husbands to come back after a few years of garrison at the border. If the husband held a high-level official position at the border and planned to stay at the border in the future, he would give his husband a concubine.

Of course, it is impossible for the Rong family to let Rong Ningrui stay at the border, and he will definitely come back in two years, which is equivalent to the meaning of gold plating for studying abroad.

Feng Xian was the Rong Ningrui he liked, and after getting engaged with Rong Ningrui, Feng Xian knew that Rong Ningrui no longer remembered that incident.

But this made Feng Yuan feel at ease, proving that Rong Ningrui's help that day was only out of kindness and had no other intentions.

Two years ago, Rong Ningrui took his younger brother Rong Ningjin to go hunting. Feng Xian and his two older brothers returned from their natal homes to Beijing and passed the hunting ground.

The hunting ground is built on the hillside and is managed by a dedicated person. Generally, no prey will come out, but Feng Yuan's carriage was startled.

The hounds of the hunting ground suddenly rushed out from the side, the horses driving the carriage started to run wildly, and the boy who was driving the carriage was also thrown out.

The Feng family were all scholars, Feng Kuan and Feng Kun were extremely anxious, but they were also a little frightened when they rode horses, and they couldn't take care of themselves.

At this time, Rong Ningrui, who had passed by and turned around, turned back, forced the carriage to stop and rescued Feng Xian.

Of course, Rong Ningrui didn't follow the example of those heroes who save the beauty with their body, and soon he waved his sleeves without taking away a cloud.

Feng Xian remembered it in his heart, and I have to say that many young people have a kind of admiration for heroes, even if he is a literati.

So Feng Xian asked his two older brothers to find someone for him, and that enthusiasm reminded Marquis of Wu'an Feng Shao of the situation when his twins inquired about Xiao Lezhi before they married Xiao Lezhi.

In the end, Mr. Feng guessed right, his beloved little grandson fell in love unrequitedly.

Feng Kuan and Feng Kun had already reported the carriage incident to the three leaders. When Jiang found out about it, she found an opportunity to pass on a message to Zhou Jing.

In fact, Rong Ningrui's saving Feng Yuan was not out of kindness, but Rong Ningjin's kindness. Rong Ningrui felt sorry for his younger brother before helping.

After Rong Ningrui knew the reason why Feng Yuan took a fancy to him, she was determined to forget about it, even Rong Ningjin was ordered by her brother to have selective amnesia.

If the daughter-in-law knew the truth, Rong Ningrui would not be able to maintain the heroic image in the hearts of her daughter-in-law and father-in-law's family.

On the contrary, Rong Ningjin was very complacent about kidnapping a good sister-in-law with just one word.
