Chapter 2 Return home

In the 25th year of Yuanfeng, Great Zhou Dynasty, Yuan Wenshao finally returned to the capital, which had been away for three years.

When they arrived at the capital, the people in the capital came to see the fun and saw the heroes of the Western Expedition.

Finally, I finally walked to the Zhongqin Bo Mansion. The Zhongqin Bo Mansion was open today, looking at my father, mother, elder brother, sister-in-law, and a group of servants waiting for me at the door.

He quickly stepped forward and bowed to Yuan Weixin and Grandma Yuan, then greeted his brother and sister-in-law one by one, and ordered the manager to arrange a group of personal soldiers. Then he walked into the mansion with everyone.

While walking Yuan Wenshao, he looked at the Earl Zhongqin Mansion. After all, he had just traveled through time and went to the frontier not long ago, so it had basically no effect on the Earl's Mansion.

The tall and spacious corridor columns and square stone benches are not as delicate as the Jiangnan mansion, but also grand and bright. Yuan Wenshao looked as he walked, and he turned a few turns and passed several rooms. The more he looked, the more he shook his head.

The houses are spacious and the decorations are simple. Apart from the necessary furniture, there are no gold, jade, antiques, calligraphy and paintings. Seeing that the family is not well-off, I was suddenly disappointed. It was just like an ordinary official family, and it didn't look like a wealthy family at all. No wonder it was so full.

None of the wealthy families in the capital wanted to marry their daughter to his family.

Thinking about it, this house was built by the Yuan family after the title was restored, and the original Earl's Mansion was deprived of it and was rewarded to others.

Fortunately, he had another Earl's mansion, and he had seized and rewarded the wars in recent years, and his salary in recent years. The salary of the Great Zhou Dynasty was almost as high as that of the Northern Song Dynasty. He added up various subsidies from the fifth rank.

The monthly salary is more than 100 trump cards, which is about 156,000 RMB now. The salary for war is doubled, but the salary is just a small amount. Those seized on the battlefield are real gold and silver. There are countless gold, silver and calligraphy and paintings, but he has no

Take a careful inventory.

When he arrived at the front hall, the old man said to Yuan Wenshao with a look of relief: "Wenshao, you have added luster to our Yuan family's lintel."

The rest of the people were all full of red faces. Yes, their Yuan family has finally turned their fortunes. In the past, they were really not up or down. They said they were rich nobles. The noble circle looked down on the Yuan family and said that they were not, but they were still Count.

.

Now it was finally time to move forward, with two counts watching over each other, especially Yuan Wenshao's military achievements and holding real power, so he was one of the most numerous families in the capital.

The eldest brother Yuan Wenchun was also happy and said with a look of spring breeze:

"The second brother is really good this time. The other Dukes and Marquis' Mansions are now looking at us. Yesterday, I went to Fanlou for a drink and happened to meet the young master of the Duke of Wei. That guy used to look at us without looking at us.

Yesterday I kept holding me and talking nonsense for a long time!”

I picked up the teacup and drank a sip of the tea. I suddenly felt that the tea today was particularly sweet. I sipped it beautifully, and then said:

"This was when I was not awarded a title yesterday. Today, the court officially confirmed that my second brother was awarded the title of Uncle Zhongyong. Our family is just one family and two counts, and it is also a decent family in the capital. There was no way out before, but now we are here

The decency of the founding nobles must be picked up."

Everyone talked for a while, and it was dinner time.

Because they are all their own family, there is no male or female separation.

The cold dishes on the table have been arranged, and a total of eight plates are placed in a five-inch small dish: salted elbow flower, beef sauce, white cut chicken, jerky, assorted tofu, shredded cucumber, mixed powder, red oil

Bamboo shoots.

After you sit down and wash your hands, the hot dishes start to come up. They are also eight plates, seven-inch plates, three-fresh shark fins, Buddha-handed sea cucumbers, steamed sea bass, fried beef rivers, hand-catch lamb chops, braised lotus seeds, roasted lilies, and stir-fried loofah.

Next, there were four bowls, turtle soup, mushroom stewed chicken soup, winter melon chicken wings, boiled cabbage. Then there were two soups, stewed lamb soup and three fresh meatball soup.

Finally, there are four small snacks, lotus seed cake, bean paste roll, sesame roll, and golden date paste cake.

At night, Kaiyang Courtyard,

This is Yuan Wenshao's yard, with five main rooms, facing south.

Grandma Yuan walked over with a spring breeze on his face, followed by a maid and servant. After simply greeting each other, Grandma Yuan said:

"Shao'er, you are now named Earl. How can the fifth-rank Sheng family match you? Should you choose another good match for you for your mother?"

Yuan Wenshao knew that his mother was a little out of touch, but she didn't expect that she would have this idea, and she said laughing and crying:

"Mother, if we quit such a marriage, what do you think of our Yuan family? As soon as we recover, we are traitorous, and dislike the poor and love the rich? This matter will never be done!"

"You are a heartless person. I am not for you, for our Yuan family. Think about it, the Sheng family can give us a fifth grade. What kind of help can he give us? It would be nice if he doesn't ask for a retreat!"

No matter what Madam Yuan said, Yuan Wenshao just refused to agree. It would be unreliable not to say this. Besides, he still has a good impression of that girl Hualan.

Seeing that his son refused to agree to make a fuss, Mrs. Yuan left angrily.

After Yuan Wenshao also sent the maid and servant, he took a break and had to get up early to attend the morning court tomorrow.
