Chapter 240: The Door-to-Door
Chu Wenqian, Chen Xiuyan's family, and Princess Changshou had dinner at Taifu's Mansion. Then Tao Lao paid homage and took Wang Yajie with them to live in Prince Jin's Mansion. Everyone was here, so how could they live separately?
After all, the best craftsmen are here.
Of course, Prince Jin's Mansion in the capital is not as big as Taiyuan Mansion. It can be said that it is two-thirds smaller, but even if it is only one-third, it is still very large, with seven separate courtyards, as well as reverse seats and back covers.
There is even a lake in the garden of the house. Although the lotus flowers have fallen, I heard that there are still lotus roots at the bottom of the lake.
Princess Changshou did not return to Prince Taiping's Mansion, but continued to live in Prince Jin's Mansion. However, Prince Taiping came here several times, and the grandfather and grandson stayed together for several days.
As a family related to the current Princess Jin, the Zheng Guogong Mansion was the first to photograph the housekeeper and the nanny coming to give gifts to Chu Wenqian and Chen Xiuyan, and attached a post to invite the family of three to visit.
Chen Xiuyan agreed one by one. This time they came to the capital was different from the last time. Before, they took exams and entered the official career; but this time they were involved in party disputes. It would be bad for them to be too active. Others would think that the King of Jin was uneasy and unwilling.
Positive and bad, after all Chu Wenqian and Chen Xiuyan are juniors.
Tao Lao would directly move in with his bags. The most important purpose was actually to express his position. Even if he could not accept Chu Wenqian as his apprentice, he was his uncle and was on Chu Wenqian's side. He also had Tao Lao's position.
Therefore, the two families, Zhenguo Gongfu and Zhengguo Gongfu, who knew the current affairs, followed suit.
The third person to come to the Jin Prince's Mansion was the third prince. The father-in-law who was serving him personally came to give the gift. This arrangement directly led to the subsequent movements of the Pei family in the Yongning Marquis Mansion. After the third prince came to the door, they also had people give gifts.
Coming.
As the in-laws of the Jin Palace, the Yan family also came to visit later. Yan An's stepmother came, and Chen Xiuyan invited people to the backyard to meet her in person. After all, she was Luo Wense's mother-in-law.
Mrs. Yan is a beauty in her thirties, who thinks very highly of herself, but in front of Chen Xiuyan, she is the one who is of lower rank and needs to salute. However, Chen Xiuyan helped her up when she just wanted to salute, even if she just continued.
Mother-in-law, but she has a long character, so she has to look good to her for the sake of her second sister.
"Auntie, you are too polite. Our two families are in-laws. Although we have never met before, my second brother-in-law is there. We can get a glimpse of the Yan family's family tradition from it. This is all because of the in-laws and uncle.
Aunt taught her well." Chen Xiuyan smiled and praised, but she was talking about Yan An. She had to let people know that she was polite to her because Yan An and Luo Wense were not her step-mother-in-law.
Mrs. Yan was still a talkative person. She wanted Chen Xiuyan to ask about the King of Jin, Princess Jin and a series of other people. She asked them about their health and whether they were used to coming to the capital. Then she warmly invited them, and Chen Xiuyan answered them all with a smile.
.
Those who could give an accurate answer answered immediately, and those who couldn't could only use roundabout tactics, such as discussing with the husband, writing a letter back to the mother and concubine to inquire, or Mr. Tao's uncle lived in the backyard, do you want to go?
Ask him for his opinion...
Mrs. Yan's face almost froze with laughter and she couldn't find out what she wanted to know. She was even more suspicious in her heart. It's not that the princess was born as a peasant girl. She seemed to be more scheming than those wealthy ladies from aristocratic families.
, this set of minds is like a sieve, with holes everywhere, but there is no place for people to drill through.
On the seventh day of the ninth lunar month, today, the Jin Palace welcomed the palace people. The emperor took advantage of the upcoming Double Ninth Festival to send gifts to Tao Taifu. By the way, he also gave meeting gifts to his two nephews, Chu Wenqian and Chen Xiuyan, and their nephews’ daughter-in-law, inviting them to the Double Ninth Festival.
That day I went to the palace to attend the flower cake banquet held in the palace.
The emperor sent gifts, how could the empress dowager, the empress, and the concubines of various palaces be left behind? Carloads of gifts were sent to Prince Jin's Mansion.
The aristocratic families and officials outside the palace saw the trend and followed suit. The hardest ones were Chu Wenqian and Chen Xiuyan.
Chu Wenqian hopes to report and take office as soon as possible, because he is much more tired at home than at work; Chen Xiuyan is the same, if it were not for the day and night conditioning of space water, plus food supplements, she might have collapsed from exhaustion.
On the eighth day of September, the Duke of Rongguo and the Yuan Palace came to the Prince of Jin's Palace. Mrs. Rongguo and Princess Duan Ning made an appointment to come to the door in person. Mrs. Rongguo brought her youngest son, and Princess Duan Ning brought her.
He married his daughter Yuan Lianyi.
Outsiders don't know, but the two of them know the importance of Chen Xiuyan to them best. However, they came to the door in person today to apologize. Although they wanted to come to thank them early in the morning, after all, Chen Xiuyan's current status is unusual and involves men's affairs.
They women can only take action after asking the head of the family what he wants.
"The last time we met was at Famen Temple." Mrs. Rongguo Gong recalled, "Xiu Yan, you don't know that An An can now live like ordinary people, and now goes to school and gets along with her classmates, all because of you.
"
Princess Duan Ning looked at Yuan Lianyi and then at Chen Xiuyan, "Lianyi will follow the recipes written by you Xiuyan every day and eat low-sugar foods. Sometimes I really want to eat something sweet, so I will use fruits according to your method.
juice instead, can you tell me how she is doing now?"
Chen Xiuyan did not refuse, and stretched out her hand to feel Yuan Lianyi's pulse. She called her into the room alone and asked about meal times and other questions. Then she took blood from her fingertips for a school test. One hour after breakfast, her blood sugar was controlled between 6 and 7.
time, very stable.
Princess Duan Ning breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the two people coming out smiling.
An An told the truth about his training and illness this year. He accidentally smelled the fragrance of flowers, but he only sneezed and was not out of breath. However, he still took medicine once for peace of mind.
"It's okay, I'm under good control." Chen Xiuyan also checked An An's pulse. "Being able to smell allergens and just sneeze means that An An has been training herself reasonably this year. As long as she has self-discipline and perseveres, she can control herself throughout her life.
He is very good, just like ordinary people."
Mrs. Rongguo and Princess Duan Ning both breathed a sigh of relief. They can be said to be two of the people who are very happy that Chen Xiuyan is back. Others don't know about Chen Xiuyan's medical skills, but they know it.
However, this time's gratitude is different from the previous ones because of the change in Chen Xiuyan's status. In the past, she could repay a favor by giving money, but now it is no longer possible. Money and gifts are only part of it, and it is most appropriate to repay a favor with a favor.
"If you need help in the future, just ask Xiu Yan." This is what Duke Rongguo and Princess Duan Ning meant.
Chen Xiuyan agreed with a smile and sent the person out personally.
