Chapter 451: New Years
It turned out that Cheng Rong met Ren Xianhong on the street, and humiliated Ren Xianhong in public as a fake gentleman who clings to wealth and glory. It was not good for him to humiliate him, so the Ren family could only marry him obediently.
Many people were watching on the street at that time. Ren Xianhong only said a few words of ethics. Cheng Rong was so angry that he took action. Cheng Rong was just a playboy, but Ren Xianhong was the official in the court.
The matter is getting worse, and no matter how powerful Mr. Cheng is, he will not dare to come forward.
Mrs. Ren cares about her son the most. Now that her son has been humiliated and beaten in the street by Cheng Rong, she would not have swallowed her breath. She asked the Cheng family to retire on the same day. If Lord Ren had not been an official, Ren Ren would have stood at the door of the Cheng family and cursed.
Ren Zhenzhen's marriage has been retired, and Mrs. Ren is also looked up to her, but Mrs. Ren is not happy either. She scolded Ren Zhenzhen several times. It was not until the Chinese New Year that the Ren family became quiet.
Grand Secretary Cheng was also scolded by the emperor for this matter, and the Cheng family became much more honest.
After the New Year, there were more marriages to be organized by the families of Jinling City. Xie Yuanniang's marriage was scheduled for the third day of the third month, Cheng and Yan's marriage was scheduled for February, and Nanrong County Lord's marriage was scheduled for the second day of the third month. Logically speaking, it was known that the marriage between Gu's mansion and Confucius' mansion should be staggered this day, but it was scheduled for the day before.
The second prince's wedding was scheduled for the second half of the year.
The Cheng family had an accident before the New Year and the marriage was low-key, but because the Jia Hou Mansion was hosting a wedding and the prince was getting married, the Jia Hou Mansion was very lively.
They are busy celebrating the New Year and preparing for the wedding. Both Jia Hou’s Mansion and Cheng’s Mansion are very busy.
It was approaching the New Year. After eating too much, Xie Yuanniang found that there was more meat on her waist. During the New Year, Xie Yuanniang received a gift from Gu's mansion.
In addition to the one sent by Gu's mansion, there was also a copy of Gu Yuanbei. Xiao Shu was happy after reading it and directly sent the goods to Xie Yuanniang's yard.
Xie Yuanniang couldn't wait to open it, and wanted to see what the young uncle gave it to him, but found that it was a few books. Xie Yuanniang felt it was boring. After reading it again, she saw it after marrying into the Gu Mansion in her previous life. Xie Yuanniang smiled again.
She liked reading books in her previous life. The books in Gufu Bookstore were all collected editions. These were some of them, and she recognized them at a glance.
My uncle gave her these books, so he naturally valued her very much.
Although he was doing it, he was so attentive. Xie Yuanniang rolled around on the bed with her book in her arms. When she saw it, Mei and the others shook their heads, but they also smiled with their lips.
When Lord Gu thought of giving a girl a New Year gift, he naturally cared about the girl. Those who served by her side were naturally happy to see the girl’s happiness.
It’s the Chinese New Year, and the Kong family came to the door only when they gave the New Year gift.
After being scolded for a while, Kong's family has been settled for a while. Now that they have arrived at the Confucius Mansion, they are still unable to fall behind.
Seeing that she was much more honest, Mrs. Confucius did not say anything bad, "Sister Hui's marriage is not quite right yet?"
"The old lady in the house is watching her face." Kong didn't dare to say something ugly anymore, "My father has many disciples, and there are many people who come to her during the Chinese New Year, right?"
"I will stare at someone who is right." Mrs. Kong said lightly, "My sister Hui's marriage is uncertain, so Sister Shu's life will not be determined. General Xiao Liu is already old and can't wait any longer."
If you drag on it, you will not have this marriage.
Kong understood.
Mrs. Kong asked someone to take out the prepared things again, "Take them all back. Some of them are dowry prepared for Sister Hui, which is my dedication. As for Sister Shu, you can watch and prepare it yourself."
"Sister Shu is also dedicated to her mother." Kong wanted to defend her daughter, but when she saw her mother's expression, she closed her mouth.
Mrs. Kong picked up the tea and took a sip, "You must understand why the girl from the Kong family came to your name and ended up wronging? All of this is because of a person. When she came back, the girl from the Kong family was like a weed. I prepared something for her. What do you think?"
Kong was asked nothing.
"Okay, go back early." Mrs. Kong drove the people away.
Kong was unhappy and didn't dare to say that when he was loading things into the carriage, he saw Shuangshou carrying another box of things over.
"Auntie, this is something the old man has prepared for you, saying that he is asking his aunt to take it back."
Kong was flattered, "Shuangshou, please thank my father for helping me."
It is rare for my aunt to speak so politely. Shuangshou hurriedly said that she would definitely bring her, so she asked someone to put the things on and watched the carriage leave before going back to reply.
Kong was happy in the carriage. He knew that this was something his father was so sad about the last time he scolded her, so he prepared for her.
I originally wanted to share half of what my mother prepared for Sister Shu, but now it seems that there is no need to do it, and it is easy to arrange one box for each person.
When the Chinese New Year was three days away, the rest of the Kong family finally arrived in Jinling.
As soon as Kong Cheng jumped out of the carriage, he saw the figure standing at the door, and strode towards him, "Yuan Niang."
He held the person in his arms and walked around the place for a few times.
The brother and sister were close together. Xiao Shu looked around and shook his head, while calling everyone who got off the carriage into the mansion. Song was the last one to be helped off the carriage. Seeing her slightly bulging belly, Xiao Shu was also stunned.
"This has been more than three months?"
Liu is Song's mother-in-law. At this time, she was asked by her mother-in-law. Liu's face was a little hot. "It's been four months since I was going to write a letter to my mother, but I didn't write it. After three months, I was going to come here again, so I thought it would be better to give my mother a surprise."
If you want an extra great-grandson or great-granddaughter, Xiao Shu is naturally happy, "Come in the house and don't get angry."
Song blushed, and then the girl helped her into the mansion. She was even bigger than the mother-in-law and Grandma Zeng above.
I don’t know if Song intentionally refused to talk to Xie Yuanniang. Everyone greeted him at the door of the mansion. Only Song did not say hello. Xiao Shu was busy greeting everyone, as if she had not seen this scene, but she had already seen it.
Liu was secretly anxious, but there was no way. Today, the family got together again and could only keep the conversation in his stomach.
In the evening, the people in the house had dinner together and set up four tables before sitting down.
Xie Yuanniang even squeezed to Kong Cheng and sat down. Xiao Shu only said something unruly, but she didn't say much about it. When the others saw this scene, they naturally just smiled, but Song lowered their eyes.
I think this aunt really has no rules. There are men at all tables, and she is the only woman sitting there. This is the Confucius Mansion and the great scholars of the world. If this continues, will the rules be gone?
In the evening, after everyone left, Xiao Shu took her three daughters-in-law and two granddaughter-in-law to talk, while Xie Yuanniang ran out with her fourth brother.
The evenings in Jinling City were very lively before the New Year. There were snacks and various fun things on the street. The two of them secretly ran out.
