Chapter 795
In the afternoon, Ning Guogong's family left. Both Zhulan and Zhou Shuren were exhausted. After seeing off the people from the Guogong's mansion, Zhulan and his wife went back to the house to rest. As for the thank you gift, they didn't have the energy to look at it, anyway, they couldn't lose it. , the rest is large.
Zhou Shuren changed his clothes and lay down comfortably, "Although we don't talk about government affairs, Duke Ning and Lord Ning really ask a lot."
It's too tiring for him to face five men from the Shangning family alone!
Zhulan can be better, she only needs to be with Mrs. Ning Guogong, and later Mrs. Guogong was tired and went to rest, she just had to deal with Mrs. Du, "What can Mrs. Shizi say, she actually set me up personally, but fortunately our daughter married The Hou Mansion and the Du Clan don't dare to take care of it either."
Don't look at Du Shi's gentle face, she has talked a lot, and she knows Du Shi a little bit, this is not a really generous person.
Zhou Shuren turned over, "Let's not talk about them."
Zhulan also closed her eyes, "Yes."
In the eldest room, Mrs. Li fanned herself with a fan, muttering, "Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with the meal, I have been thinking about it all the time."
Today, she has been tensing her heartstrings. She is deeply afraid that she will lose the people of the Zhou family during her housekeeping, and that the Ningguo government will look down on them, and finally send them away. She is a little bit out of strength now.
Yulu took the fan from her mother, "Mother, my daughter will fan you."
Mrs. Li felt well in her heart, she still loved her so much, and asked her a little unconfidently, "Is your mother's performance today okay?"
Yulu had a smile in her eyes. Under the pressure, her mother had made great progress, she nodded and said, "Very good, very demeanor of a eldest daughter-in-law."
Li grinned, "My daughter's words must be the truth."
Yulu thinks mother is too cute, "Mother, is father coming back soon?"
Li's heart was empty, "Well, it's time to set off and come back."
In the second room, Mrs. Zhao was in a daze. Yushuang sat over and thought that mother was being bullied, "Mother, did you hear something bad?"
Returning to her senses, Mrs. Zhao hugged her little daughter Yudie, and said with a smile: "No one said anything bad, mother just thinks it's like a dream."
Although the Song family and the Yu family were indifferent to her, they were also considered polite. This is the granddaughter-in-law of Ningguo Duke's mansion!
Who would have thought,
She was bullied when she was a child, and when she grew up, she was always ready to die due to a drought. Now she not only has sons and daughters, but everyone will call her the second wife when she goes out. She is really afraid it is a dream.
Yushuang held her mother's hand, her mother had experienced too much, she was worried about gain and loss, "Mother, this is not a dream."
Zhao smiled, "Mother knows, you are tired too, go back and rest for a while."
Yushuang stood up, "Mother also has a rest."
With that said, he picked up the little girl and took her back to her room.
The third room, Mrs. Dong is also emotional, but there are not as many second rooms as the big one, because only Chang Lian has entered the official career in the Zhou Mansion, and there are many posts inviting Dong's, and she has a lot of experience. The only thing Dong is feeling is her sister-in-law, and I really don't think much about it. .
Su Xuan's thinking is simpler, as long as she treats the Zhou family well.
At the boundary of Qingzhou, Changyi counted the time, and in five days, he will be able to reach the capital. On the return journey, because he bought a lot of things, although he was anxious, he did not drive too fast, and now he is finally going home.
Changyi was sitting in the carriage and was thinking about whether to drive overnight. Outside the carriage, Dongmo rode to the window, "Second Lord, Qiangzi, who was one step ahead, is back, and someone is robbing the girl in front."
Dong Mo has been with the second master for many years, he is just reporting, and he knows better than anyone else that the second master is not a nosy person.
Changyi opened the curtain of the carriage, and asked in a low voice, "We have walked this road several times, how do I remember that this side is far from the village? But I remembered wrongly?"
Dong Mo said: "It is indeed far away from the village."
Changyi's face was serious, "Turn around, tonight we'll go back to the county town we just passed by for the night."
He had to be careful, the higher his father's official position, the more people would plot against the Zhou family, and at the same time, he was very annoyed, he was obviously very simple and honest, why did he use beauty tricks on him, that's right, Changyi decided , the front is to calculate him.
After Chang Yi waited for the carriage to turn around, he was still thinking that when he returned to Beijing, he would choose a few more capable people, so that he would not easily go out in the future.
I waited for a long time before the convoy, so I had no choice but to send someone to inquire. As a result, there was no one in the convoy anywhere!
As the convoy was about to reach the county seat, Qiangzi, who was specially left behind by Changyi, also rushed up, "Second Master, we just left for a while, and someone sneakily checked."
Changyi hummed, and became more and more annoyed in his heart. Seeing that he had arrived in the capital, and something bad happened to delay his trip, he wondered whether he should leave first.
In Beijing, Zhou Shuren didn't know that his second son was being tricked again, and he and his wife were counting the gifts.
Zhulan looked at the gift list, there are five thousand taels of gold, fifty thousand taels of silver, jewelry, many of which have not been polished, can be used as jewelry for granddaughters, or as a dowry for Xuehan, books, calligraphy and paintings are for Zhou Shuren .
Zhou Shuren has already put away the treasures, and the decorations are interesting, many of them are in pairs, it seems that they are for dowry.
Most of the whole set of jewelry is for her. There are quite a lot of jewelry here.
Zhou Shuren said: "I'm going to the study first."
"good."
Zhulan sorted out the gold according to the silver lent to her by each house, and chose a few pieces of jewelry for each of the four daughters-in-law. The granddaughter was not left behind, and asked Mrs. Song to send it to each house.
Afterwards, two thousand taels of gold were sealed up for the girls to get married, and the rest was put away, and some jewels were also picked out. The gifts from Ningfu were rare and good things, and some of these things were left for the granddaughters to get married and put in the bottom of the box. , and the rest will be taken away as a dowry for my daughter.
After Zhulan finished tidying up, Mrs. Song also came back, Zhulan sighed and said, "There are so many of these things, and every cent will be gone."
It's not enough. There are many granddaughters in the family, and they are all granddaughters. Her grandma must have a bowl of food, and she must leave a few more for the unborn granddaughter.
Mrs. Song thought in her heart, therefore, high marriage can really save the family. If the Zhou Mansion hadn't made up for it with this thank-you gift, although the young lady's dowry is quite a lot, marrying into the Ning family is still not enough.
Zhulan took a last look at the sealed box, if it wasn't for Rong Chuan being the fifth prince and her daughter the future fifth prince's concubine, why would she be so worried about her daughter's dowry.
Ninghou Mansion, Ning Xu took Rong Chuan back to the Hou Mansion, and personally took Rong Chuan to the yard, "This yard has been repaired for a long time, and my father stared at the repairers, knowing that you don't like luxury, so I followed your instructions." I like the layout."
Speaking of which, the likes of Rong Chuan and the prince are true.
Last time Rong Chuan stayed in the guest room, this time it felt very different, this is his home, where he will live in the future, "Father, isn't this yard too big?"
It's about the same size as the main courtyard.
Ning Xu smiled, "It's better to be older, since you're about to get married, it's not okay if the place is too small."
Rong Chuan blushed, "Father, my son is still young, don't worry."
Ning Xu's eyes were playful, not in a hurry, hum, this kid has never left Miss Zhou's eyes, not in a hurry, "Since you said not in a hurry, Master Zhou also wants to keep his daughter for two more years, so two years later?"
Rong Chuan was dumbfounded, and then saw that his father was smiling, and realized, "Father, why are you teasing your son?"
"You are not in a hurry, Dad just follows you."
Rong Chuan's ears turned red, "My son likes this yard very much."
Ning Xu laughed, admitting that he was in a hurry!
