Compared to Princess Gaoyang who was born into the royal family, Wu Meiniang from a meritorious clan grew up in a water town in the south of the Yangtze River and was influenced by poetry and calligraphy. Xiao Shuer is more gentle, gentle, elegant and quiet. Even though she has been married for a long time and has given birth to a child, she is still in bed.
Fang Jun is still shy and tactful. Whenever Fang Jun mentions some excessive demands, he is always embarrassed. He wants to refuse but can't bear it. He wants to obey but resists. It seems that he is refusing but not refusing. He wants to refuse but welcomes it, but it becomes more and more difficult.
Let Fang Jun be obsessed with it.
Men are always a bit mean-spirited. They won't cherish things that are too easy to get, but they will also dislike trouble if they can't get enough. Only by staying away from each other and welcoming them when you want to refuse can best conquer a man's heart...
In the middle of the night, heavy snow was flying, goose-feather-like snowflakes were swirling and falling, and the north wind swept over the eaves, making a cry like a complaint.
…
When she woke up early in the morning, Xiao Shuer still slept like a begonia in spring, with her black cloud-like hair spread out on the pillow, her snow-white skinny shoulders exposed outside the quilt, and a bit of spring charm still remaining on her beautiful cheeks.
Fang Jun covered her with the quilt, put on a piece of clothing and looked outside the window. The heavy snow still hadn't stopped. Although servants had been cleaning the yard all night, the walls and roof were covered with a thick layer.
Without disturbing the beauty who was sleeping softly and soundly in bed, she put on her clothes and opened the door, bathed and washed under the service of the maid, then changed into a set of brocade robes, and went to the side hall to have dinner.
Before Fang Xuanling and his wife arrived, Princess Gaoyang, Wu Meiniang, Jin Shengman, and Qiaoer had already arrived, and the children were probably still sleeping.
Hearing that Xiao Shu'er hadn't woken up yet, Princess Gao Yang gave her husband a fierce look and muttered: "Like wolves who have never eaten meat, they will kill one of them if they catch one."
Jin Shengman laughed out loud, his face turned red. His husband was really like a hungry wolf, he was extremely eager, but he was also very strong and powerful. It was really difficult for him to deal with it alone...
…
Although Qiaoer was the first to follow Fang Jun, she had no choice but to have the lowest status. She stood aside and placed the dishes and chopsticks in front of Fang Jun. Fang Jun slapped her on the buttocks and said with a smile: "It's your turn tonight, you can take care of yourself during the day."
Recharge your batteries!"
"Yeah." Qiao'er's face turned red and she hummed, feeling extremely embarrassed.
"I've met the second brother, I've met your highness, I've met all the sisters-in-law..." Fang Yi yawned and walked into the side hall. Seeing everyone there, he hurriedly greeted everyone.
While everyone was responding, Fang Xuanling and his wife also came over and quickly stood up to greet them.
Sitting down again, Mrs. Lu sat next to Fang Xuanling, pulled Fang Jun to sit next to her, and moved up and down a lot. The more she looked at her, the happier she became: "It seems that her face is a little whiter? Her complexion is good, and she has taken good care of herself."
This is the greatest compliment to several daughters-in-law. After all, in the eyes of mothers, the greatest function of a daughter-in-law is to take care of her own son besides having children and growing up.
Immediately he became sad again and sighed: "The whole family is intact, except for your eldest brother and his wife. They didn't have time to come back from the Japanese country, and I don't know whether they are living well or not."
There are several routes between Huating Town and the Japanese country. There are as many warships and merchant ships as crucian carp crossing the river. It is very convenient to convey information. After Fang Yi went to the Japanese country to teach Confucian classics, he continued to write letters to his parents, but because of the long distance and long distance,
They had traveled across the ocean, so they had never been able to meet each other. Mrs. Lu was worried, lest her eldest son would report good news but not bad news.
Fang Xuanling advised: "You are worrying for nothing. The entire Japanese country is about to fall apart due to the torment of your second son. The so-called emperor and the Suga family that have been passed down for thousands of years have all lost their descendants and vanished into thin air. The entire Japanese country is his."
In our territory, who dares to disobey and confiscate their families and exterminate their clans... The boss is just like a local emperor over there, with tens of thousands of navy and hundreds of warships protecting him, he is probably feeling too happy to miss Shu at the moment."
Mrs. Lu was a little frightened when she heard that. She turned to look at Fang Jun and asked, "Seriously?"
Although people in the south of the Yangtze River have repeatedly spread the news about the Japanese country, they also heard that the navy was turning their hands into clouds and rain in the Japanese country, messing up the country and even ceding, leasing or occupying a lot of it.
place, but I didn't know it was so cruel.
How many people have to be killed?
Fang Jun watched the servants bring breakfast and put it on the table. He picked up his chopsticks and said calmly: "Japanese people are barbarians and beasts. They are afraid of power but not moral. They know small etiquette but not great righteousness. They pay attention to trivial matters but despise shame.
If it can rise to become a powerful country, neighboring countries will suffer from its inhumane persecution and abuse, even if it is exterminated now, it will not be an exaggeration."
Mr. Lu listened with complicated thoughts.
Although I have always known that this son is not a kind-hearted person, otherwise he would not be able to bring about the current situation. He is not inferior to his father, but he never thought that he could be so ruthless and ruthless, tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of people could be reached with a wave of his hand.
Heads fell to the ground, and countries were wiped out...
Why is it a little scary?
Fang Xuanling waved her hands and said: "Why do you, a housewife, worry about national affairs? Just take care of the housework at home and take care of your grandchildren. That's enough."
Lu's eyebrows suddenly rose: "You think I don't know etiquette and don't read poetry, so I'm messing around here?"
Fang Xuanling was speechless: "Have I ever said that? Don't be troublesome."
Fang Jun and his daughters-in-law lowered their heads, turned a deaf ear and did not dare to make any expressions, lest Fang Xuanling get off stage.
Fang Yi was quite interested and looked at it with a smile.
Mrs. Lu sneered: "You think I'm nosy? I'm just asking about my son, why am I bothering you? But when you see your son having three wives and four concubines, are you envious and jealous and want to imitate him?"
Fang Xuanling ruled the world outside and kept his word, but at home he would quarrel and get angry from time to time. He had been used to it for most of his life. He was very experienced in dealing with the angry Lu family. He picked up the chopsticks and picked up the bowl and said: "
Let’s get started.”
Pick up vegetables and drink porridge.
Mrs. Lu almost suffered internal injuries due to the pressure, but she still saved Fang Xuanling's face in front of her daughter-in-law and only said: "This matter is not over yet."
The family quickly finished their breakfast. The servants removed the bowls and chopsticks and made a pot of tea. The family sat in the hall drinking tea and discussing New Year's gifts.
Fang Xuanling said: "Other families can just send people to give New Year's gifts. The gifts don't need to be expensive, they are just a token of favor. But you have to go to Prince Han's Mansion in person, and the gifts are heavier.
, by the way, I will take your sister back to stay for a few days, and then send her back when you can worship your ancestors before the end of the year."
This was said to Fang Jun. Princess Han was the daughter of Fang's eldest daughter, and she was a princess. Her status was different, so it was not important for others to come. In the past, it was Fang Yi who went directly to give New Year's gifts. Since Fang Jun's rise,
It is up to him to go.
On the side, Wu Meiniang said softly: "Father, don't worry, each family's gifts have been prepared, and they vary in severity. Prince Han's Palace is the first-class gift."
Fang Xuanling said happily: "I have to worry too much. Mei Niang handles things and naturally leaves nothing to chance."
He is completely satisfied with his several daughters-in-law. Although the eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Du, is a little more fierce, she is not so unreasonable because of her more fierce mother-in-law. Although she treats her eldest son to be docile, the relationship between the couple
There is harmony among them.
Not to mention the wives and concubines of the second son, Princess Gaoyang has a noble status. With her, she is a talisman for the Fang family. When she is rich, she can make further progress. When she is down, she also has a guarantee to avoid catastrophe. Wu Meiniang is even more so.
She has superb means and superior intelligence. Now the huge property of the Fang family is under her control. It is well organized and prosperous without any mistakes. Xiao Shuer does not take care of things, is very virtuous, does not fight or grab, is gentle and gentle, and Qiao'er is even more so.
She has served Fang Jun since childhood and taken good care of Fang Jun's food, clothing, housing and transportation. Even Jin Shengman, a Silla princess, is also very heroic and has the spirit of a heroine at critical moments.
The most amazing thing is that so many wives and concubines never have any quarrels. They are harmonious and friendly to each other. They discuss everything and discuss things with each other. They neither compete for favor nor push for favor. They are simply a model of a harmonious family in Fang Xuanling's eyes.
He couldn't understand how his son could do such a difficult thing, so he could only express his admiration...
After drinking tea for a while and discussing various chores for the year before, the outside manager came in to report that the New Year gifts prepared for Prince Han's Mansion had been loaded into the car. Fang Jun then stood up, put on his mink hat and fox fur, and called in front of the soldiers.
Surrounded by his followers, he headed to the Han Palace with several large carts of New Year gifts.
…
The New Year is approaching, which is the best time for noble families to come and go. As Zong Zhengqing, King Li Yuanjia of Han is in charge of royal affairs and has a respected status. In the past two days, there was an endless stream of people coming to give gifts, and there was a constant flow of vehicles in front of the door.
The steward of the palace was greeting Erlang from the palace of Hejian County in front of the gate. He saw a large group of vehicles entering from the gate of the square and came directly to the gate.
Fang Jun swung the stirrup from the saddle, turned over and dismounted, threw the horse's rein into the hands of the soldiers, and said to the servants who followed: "Send the gift list, you go to the concierge to have tea and wait."
"Here."
Li Hui cupped his hands in greeting and said, "It turns out he is the Duke of Yue, and he is polite when he subordinates himself."
Fang Jun said with a smile: "Second brother, why are you so polite? Tomorrow I have to go to the palace to pay a visit to the prince."
Li Hui said: "I will report back to my father when I get back, prepare a banquet and sweep the couch for you."
"you are welcome."
"Then I'll take my leave first."
"please."
Watching Li Hui leave, Fang Jun saw that the steward of Prince Han's Mansion had already taken the gift list, and walked towards the mansion: "Unload the gifts on the cart and serve hot tea to my soldiers. Your Highness, can you be in the mansion?"
Before waiting for the steward's reply, he added: "That's all. I'm very annoyed when I see Your Highness. I'll go see the eldest sister myself."
The steward smiled bitterly. These brothers-in-law and brother-in-law were like enemies. Every time Fang Jun came to the door, King Han was worried and worried...
"His Royal Highness is in the palace, and the princess is also there. I have sent someone to lead Duke Yue there."
When someone was sent to lead Fang Jun into the house, the steward picked up the gift and looked at it, his heart skipped a beat.
One hundred kilograms of top-grade tea, twenty hugs of fine southern pearls, one hundred pieces of Suzhou embroidery, one hundred pieces of Sichuan brocade, twenty jars of fine wine, twenty pure gold wine bottles, thirty kilograms of Liaodong century-old ginseng...the ginseng has to be weighed by the kilogram.
?
This is so rich and noble that even Prince Han, as a nobleman of Tianhuang, was shocked by this gift. It was too expensive.
It's no wonder that Princess Han has a strong back in the palace. With such a natal family supporting her, how can she not feel proud?
