470. The Twenty-Two of the Imperial Capital
Chapter 470
This is a very enviable day for A Nian Tanhua.
Nothing else, as soon as the yamen was settled, A Nian Tanhua and a bunch of relatives were in a hurry to get home from get off work, and they all knew that the whole family would arrive today.
Then, as soon as A Nian left the yamen, he saw Ji Zhen waiting outside a carriage. As Song Hanlin, who was familiar with him, also joked, "A Nian is so lucky, my son-in-law is here to pick you up." Song Hanlin is a so-so family, with a high seniority, and has known A Nian for many years. When he left the yamen, he would occasionally call A Nian's name.
A Nian smiled, "A Xuan quickly helps your father-in-law and don't ask your father-in-law to choose your reason."
Shen Xuan smiled, "When Azhen comes, any father-in-law who is a father-in-law will think that his son-in-law is not very handsome."
Everyone was joking, and saw the blue cloth curtains of the carriage beside Ji Zhen being picked up, and a beautiful and elf face was poked out. He called out "Dad!" to A Nian, who had always been steady, suddenly he lightened his body, and turned over everyone, his eyes were full of joy, and asked with a smile, "When did you arrive at home? Why don't you rest at home? I'll pick me up. I'll go back in the moment." Then, A Nian said, and got on the carriage in two straight steps, took the carriage with her daughter, and said from the window, "Uncle Song, my daughter is here to pick me up, I'll go back first." He also told his brother A Xuan and A Jiang to work with his brother-in-law and nephew, "You guys take it slow, I'll leave first, let's go home and talk."
Azhen was originally with her fiancée, and she was riding a horse by the car. She was envious of her father-in-law who was riding in the car.
After A Nian left in the car, A Xuan came back to his senses from the beautiful elf girl and said straight, "I'm good, I'm better looking than Sister Zijin when she was a child." As soon as she finished speaking, her father-in-law Song Hanlin slapped on the back of the head. Song Hanlin said, "You are also an uncle, why are you not steady?"
A Xuan smiled, "I just hate my son when he was born late."
Song Hanlin laughed, "Go back quickly, your house will be lively today."
A Xuan nodded and rushed home with a group of relatives.
A Jiang said on the way, "In the past, A Jun, you said that A Xi and A Ye were born similar, but I couldn't imagine it. I thought A Xi was born like a boy. It was not the case at all. This girl was born so well." The twins are indeed similar, and the most similar thing is the kind of handsomeness that people can't reach. But A Xi is definitely a gentle and charming daughter's family, and this girl is born so well.
Brother Jun was very proud, "That was. When he was in Beichang Prefecture, Axi was a famous girl in the entire Beichang Prefecture."
A Jiang said, "That is, Azhen is determined to be ahead." Otherwise, A Xi's appearance would be the best in the imperial capital. Of course, the Ji family has a good family background and is not worthy of her niece. But her niece is so outstanding that she still makes her uncles very proud.
A Nian was so happy to see her daughter. She asked her when she would arrive. She was tired after eating. She said that her daughter had lost weight and was so filial to pick her up. Ah Xi was also very happy to see her father. She held her father's arm like a little girl and smiled, "I have met great-grandfather, great-grandmother, and uncle, and I have also gone to Chaoyun's grandfather. Thinking that you are about to fall into the yamen, you will come to pick you up with Brother Azhen. My father is still the same as before, and the style of this beard is not much the same as in Beichang Mansion."
A Nian touched the mustache on his lips and said with a slight pride, "This is the new trend now. Since your mother changed my style and played in the Hanlin Academy, everyone has learned this new style.
A Xi, "Didn't the twins say that there are still some little kids in school laughing at them? Dad, why are you so ecstatic in the Hanlin Academy? ~"
A Nian said, "The twins are old and old. They are used to being at Beichang Prefecture Academy. When they first came to the imperial capital, they didn't pay much attention to them. Naturally, they were mentally unbalanced. Let them go. What's the same with your father? When I first came, others saw me as a historian for His Majesty, but it didn't matter. I still had to make a relationship. Seeing that my beard is novel, some people naturally learned it. Now it's not possible. Now there is no such thing as a historian. Thanks to the fact that our family has many people in the Hanlin Academy, I am still safe. But this new beard is already popular." I feel that the new beard style designed by my wife is more proud than the imperial teacher.
Parents are the best teachers for their children. As indifferent as A Nian, he talked about losing His Majesty His Majesty Historian. Seeing that his father didn't take it seriously, A Xi naturally didn't feel nervous. A Xi also said, "The main reason is that you are handsome in your life and have different styles of style. So, if you wear a new style of clothes and a new style of beard, many people will learn from you."
"Overall, my dad is getting older. When he was young, he was a bit romantic. Now it is the age of Azhen and your brother."
"They are still very early, far worse than you, Dad."
A Nian loves to listen to this, and she feels more considerate about her daughter.
Azhen was so envious when she listened to the laughter of the father and daughter in the car. He also wanted to talk to Sister Xi in the same car. But having her father-in-law here can only be a dream for a short time!
A Xi is simply the little princess in the family. Although Brother Jin is young, he should have a lot of pain. However, the Shen Hejiang and the other three families are the most lacking for sons. A girl like A Xi is beautiful and sensible, and no one will dislike it.
Old Mrs. Shen took her as a snobbish man. Even Jiang, who was a little snobbish in the past, praised Ah Xi for having a good birth and was loved by others. Jiang really regretted not hearing her husband marrying her son's niece. Of course, the eldest daughter-in-law is also filial, but the family may have been cursed by the birth of a son. Jiang had no daughter. As for grandchildren, several grandchildren, and yet he has not seen his granddaughter yet.
Ji Zhen couldn't help but feel lucky when he saw these three families. Fortunately, he had started early, otherwise it would be his turn to be Ah Xi's popularity.
Fortunately, Ji Zhen thought he was also a relatively outstanding person~ So, as his son-in-law, he sat openly beside his brother-in-law Aye.
A Ye asked Ji Zhen quietly, "Why did grandfather let A Xi come back?" Didn't you keep A Xi for dinner? According to grandfather's temperament, I was afraid that he would keep A Xi for a while.
Ji Zhen whispered, "I have to go back to have dinner with Grandfather Chaoyun in a while."
A Ye nodded: It turned out that he was temporarily released.
A Xi is extremely popular. Xiaolang has been familiar with Aunt A Xi for a long time and has already come over to talk to Aunt A Xi. A Feng has a serious child. The first time he sees A Xi's cousin, he is not serious at all. He asks his cousin if he wants to drink water, and then asks his cousin if he wants to eat snacks. He is busy with A Xi, and is extremely attentive.
There are also a few grandchildren of the Shen family who are rushing to talk to A Xi’s cousin.
Brother Jun laughed secretly and said to Du, "Look at these guys, I know very well." Seeing that my cousin was handsome, she was so eager to show her attention.
Du laughed, "What are you saying? A Xi is already popular." A Xi is born with a very good appearance, and it is rare that she is neither spoiled nor shy. She is completely open-minded. Not to mention her cousins, even the elders like such juniors very much.
Chen Su went home and went straight to his sister. He had met her sister, brother-in-law and mother He. Chen Su was really worthy of A Xuan's biological father. He looked at A Xi and said straight, "It's better than Zi Jin's birth back then."
Mrs. He agreed with this and said, "No way! My uncle has seen it. At that time, Ah Xi was born like a pink ball! Most of the time, she was wrinkled when she was born. Our Ah Xi was born, and she was round and cute when she was born."
Afeng hurriedly said, "Great-grandfather, sister is not round!" My cousin is so beautiful, thin and white, like a fairy.
Mrs. He said, "What I mean is that when your cousin was young, she was white and tender, so beautiful."
Afeng nodded, agreeing with his great-grandmother's appearance, as if he had seen it.
A Xi greeted his uncle, Chen Su took out a red pendant from his sleeve and gave it to A Xi, and smiled, "This is obtained by chance from a sea merchant. Amber is not unusual. There is a small butterfly inside, which is just for you girls to wear."
Amber Axi has also seen it, but it was the first time that a little butterfly inside. Axi thanked him and answered him. Hanging in the air to see the light, Axuan's eldest son Shen Dalang pointed to his cousin, "You can see the patterns on your wings clearly, right?"
Ah Xi nodded and said, "It looks so good. I want to have a fight and take it with me every day."
Shen Dalang flattered, "This pendant is only worn by cousin."
Shen Xuan said:... Sigh, reserved, reserved!
When the twins and Acan and Axuan come home from school, they want to say something to Axi's sister, so they have to queue up.
All the elders found it funny.
The twins said unfairly, "Brother Dalang, why are you not so enthusiastic when we first came! You are not a snob, why are you still so arrogant!"
Shen Dalang looked like an older brother and said, "There are no good or bad eyes? Look at me, both of them are the same. I said you are not a stingy either. Sister Ah Xi is a girl, so of course we have to take care of her more."
Shen Dalang was so proud that the twins were not stupid, so he immediately came to his sister, "Let's take care of her sister too."
Ah Xi touched their fat faces and smiled, "I'm still worried that you two will not adapt to the environment in the imperial capital, but it will be even more nourishing."
The twins smiled and said, "Where do you think of my elder sister, your face is swollen!"
Shen Dalang almost didn't vomit, thinking that the twin cousin was not swollen, but the skin! The twins were about to act coquettishly with their sister, but Acan and Axuan squeezed in. Moreover, they imitated the twins with their faces raised and touched them, and they called them sweetly without recognizing their child.
Ah Xi also touched their little faces. The twins were stunned. They felt that they had been with Achan and Ah Xuan for so long that they didn't know that these two were so shameless.
A Xi asked, "Dalang and the others have been back a long time ago, why are you so late?"
The twins rushed to say, "It's our turn to clean the class today. There are rules in the official school. You can't ask the servants to help. Two people are in a group. Isn't it our turn? I originally wanted to find someone to replace me, but unfortunately there was a senior Cuju competition in the school this evening. The kicker was unfaithful and no one changed. I came back after cleaning." The twins said, and said, "Oh, let's go back and change clothes first. Sister, I'll show you something good later."
Ah Xi smiled, "Yeah, I'll wait."
The twins and A Can and A Xuan went to change clothes. When they came back, they saw their sister sending gifts. Each of them was a purse made by A Xi. The twins originally wanted to show off their gold and jade toys that the Empress Dowager had after dinner. This was the Queen Mother's reward. The twins had been trying to show off for a long time. However, although they like to show off, they were still very sensible and knew to be low-key. Therefore, they only showed off their parents, elder brother, and Chaoyun's grandfather for 120 times. After finally, the sister came back, but they had not shown off yet. Everyone tried the purse and talked. Without waiting for the twins to show off, Chaoyun's grandfather came to pick him up.
Speaking of which, since his 70th birthday, Grandfather Chaoyun has been very a little bit. He has to do whatever he wants. No one can afford to offend him, so he had to let A Xi go. As for Azhen, of course, he followed him happily.
Azhen was quite happy. He finally talked to Axi's sister in the air.
Because my sister was taken over by my grandfather, after the reunion dinner that night, the twins also went to my grandfather's house. Grandfather Chaoyun was talking to Ah Xi. Seeing that the twins came over with a golden jade toy, Grandfather Chaoyun was still in a state of fairy style. Luo Daru couldn't help it and sprayed a tea. The twins were also very concerned about Grandfather Daru. Seeing this, they didn't care about showing off their golden jade toys, so they hurriedly stepped forward to knock on Grandfather Daru's back and waved their hands. Luo Daru smiled and waved his hand, "Okay, I'm fine, you two talk about the serious business." Just these two things, the twins have to say a thousand times.
Seeing that Grandpa Great Confucian was fine, the twins took the golden jade decorations to show their sister, showing off their faces, "Sister, look!"
When A Xi saw that it was a pair of gold-painted incense burners. Seeing the twins' eyes bright, A Xi knew that there must be a reason here. She took it first and appreciated it in her hand, saying, "This jade is not expensive, but it is also a high-quality jade. The rare thing is exactly the same, and the carving is good." When she saw the mark at the bottom of the furnace, A Xi was a little surprised, "Oh, this is something in the palace." If there were marks in the palace, most of them were from Grandfather Chaoyun. However, A Xi looked at the twins' extraordinary appearance, but it didn't look like they got from Grandfather.
Before Ah Xi asked, the twins had already expressed their low-key tone, "Sister, you have good eyesight, this is the Empress Dowager, who is the old lady who is rewarding us. Sister, you have it, but yours are all clothes and materials." The implication is that your clothes and materials are not as valuable as our gold and jade incense burner. The twins have been good at keeping private houses since they were young. To be honest, the Jiang family was in a good place when they were born. But the twins did not get a little dandy. They just had home-cooked meals and did not require gorgeous clothes and beautiful clothes. Of course, they also have vanity, but they never asked their own house to set up houses. These two guys came to Chao Yun's grandfather to live in a luxury house. Therefore, in the eyes of the twins, the materials and materials that are not worthy of value are naturally no more than gold and silver objects.
Seeing the twins' proud look, A Xi teased them, "You guys haven't seen me for a long time and want to give me this treasure."
Before the words were finished, the twins snatched the baby incense burner into their arms with their claws. One of the twins, Ah Yun, held the incense burner tightly and was very good at defending himself, "It's not that I can't bear to give it to you, or I heard that the gift from the Empress Dowager cannot be given to anyone casually, and I'm not very respectful."
The second twins Ayan followed suit, "No, that's not the case. The thing is small, how can you make me take on this reputation as a taboo, right?"
Ah Xi scratched her chin strangely and said to Chaoyun's grandfather, "Everyone said that the feng shui of this imperial capital is good, so she couldn't change the problem of stinging Ba."
The twins were very dissatisfied and whispered, "Who is stinging! Who is stinging!" They didn't sting, okay?
The twins used their actions to prove that they were not stingy at all. After showing off the golden incense burner with their elder sister, the two did not rest at Chaoyun's manor that day, and went home with the golden incense burner. Before it was dark, they showed off with their great-grandmother again.
Great-grandmother He is not A Xi, who likes to say that twins are stingy. He praised the incense burner and twins, and he thought that twins could receive the reward of the Empress Dowager, so he was too proud of it!
Mrs. He also reminded them, "This is a rare thing. You must survive well. No one should give it to you. You should keep it as a family heirloom and pass it on to your descendants in the future."
The twins deeply understood that their soulmate was their great-grandmother! Compared to the elder sister who wanted to be greedy for their treasures, the great-grandmother was so insightful and understanding! The twins deeply believed that the great-grandmother was really too insightful.
Not only was the great-grandmother known, she also asked the twins to bring their babies and admired them for Shen and He Gong, and said in a tone that seemed to be related to the twins, "Look, how lucky we twins are!"
The twins said in a fake manner, "Actually, it's not about us. My mother said she was a coincidence. But this is also a rare decency. We thought, it would be better to respect our great-grandmother."
The great-grandmother immediately laughed as a flower, feeling very considerate, and praised the twins, "Good child, this is your baby, how can the great-grandmother want it?" The twins were cunning and cunning. They said that just when they knew that the great-grandmother would not want it.
However, my great-grandmother really liked the golden incense burner given by the Empress Dowager, so my great-grandmother said honestly, "I can still lend it to me for a few days."
The twins were just pretending to be polite at first. I didn’t expect that my great-grandmother was really good, and the twins almost bit their tongues. I can’t mention the depression. Moreover, although the two of them were stingy, they were young, but as little men, they also received the men’s education since childhood. They said what they said, and they splashed out water, and they said it, and they couldn’t come back now!
The feeling of soul-sense that the twins had just developed towards their great-grandmother has now disappeared. I feel that why did the great-grandmother be so honest and take their polite words seriously!
So, because they were thinking about the golden and jade incense burner that they were detained by their great-grandmother, they were not very young to live in Grandpa Chaoyun. They both had to pay their respects to their great-grandmother every night, and caressed their own incense burner with their little eyes of longing.
However, the incense burner was not lent to my great-grandmother for use in vain. Now, as long as someone comes to my family, my great-grandmother will definitely instruct the little maid to "burn a burning of incense." The incense is from the rouge shop of her own maid, and there is no need to spend money. Then, my great-grandmother will use this incense to tell the story of the golden incense burner to the guests.
