The Qinghe County Lord of the Red Chamber

Seeing that Shang Chanchan was very serious, and began to praise the sachet made by the Hu family, Xie Ling couldn't help but smile.

Since the news of the Southern Fujian War, Xie Ling has been very busy every day, and there are many things that weigh heavily on his mind.

Until now I finally smiled.

He put away the sachet Shang Chanchan gave him, turned around and took two steps before turning back.

His face was full of solemnity: "When my father returns to Beijing, how about I ask him to come and propose marriage?"

Shang Chanchan also put away her smile, and nodded seriously: "Okay. I'll wait."

Seeing that Xie Ling was still standing opposite, Shang Chanchan was puzzled and said, "Do you still have something to say to me?"

At this time, shouldn't the two look at each other with tears in their eyes, then turn around tragically, and never look back to enhance the atmosphere?

What is Xie Ling still doing here?

Xie Ling said, "You're still sitting on my coat."

Shang Chanchan: ...

She got up and looked at the sky outside the pavilion and said: "This year's weather is weird. It's almost March, but it still hasn't warmed up. You see, today is even more gloomy, maybe it will snow."

Xie Ling then said with concern: "Spring covers autumn and freezes. It was this time the year before last, and you got hot because of the wind blowing on the roasted venison. You must be careful this year."

Speaking of roasted venison, Shang Chanchan suddenly remembered that Rongguo Mansion also had roasted venison in the book.

Rongguo Mansion...

So he asked Xie Ling, "Is your family still investigating the crimes of the four major families?"

Xie Ling thought that she wanted to hear about the recent bustle of the Rongguo Mansion, so she shook her head and said: "Although the people released are watching, but now my father and I can't care about the other side, and I haven't called them to ask for more than a month.

''If you want to hear it, I'll ask them to sort it out and send it to Baoninghou Mansion? "

Shang Chanchan said quickly: "I don't know if the people in your house can find out about one thing, let me tell you first: the Rongguo Mansion collected property for the Zhen family."

Xie Ling's expression changed, and he looked at her for a while before saying: "You told me a lot about the secrets of the Second Ningrong Manor before."

"You only said that the female relatives in the inner house come and go, and you can see many ways."

"However, I don't think the girls in their house will know about these things."

Whose family gatherings will not discuss their own lawlessness and unbearable inside stories again and again.

Shang Chanchan smiled: "I know a lot, I will tell you later."

Xie Ling nodded: "Okay."

Besides, when Shang Chanchan returned to Fengjing Palace, she didn't want to stay alone, so she went to Daiyu's room, but it happened that Daiyu was transcribing poems.

She just stood by and watched for a while.

I saw Daiyu wearing a jade-colored thin silk robe, revealing a peach red silk skirt with folded branches and flowers underneath.

Even Shang Chanchan, who is used to seeing her appearance, couldn't help sighing: How could there be such a daughter with such a temperament in the world.

Indulging in the beauty for a while, I lowered my head to read the poems that Daiyu had transcribed.

"Going up the peak alone to look at the eight capitals, the moon is still lonely after the dark clouds clear.

There are countless people in the vast universe, and several men are husbands. "

Can't help asking: "My sister rarely reads such poems."

Daiyu turned her face and smiled: "Father will bring up the court affairs with me more or less when he returns home. And the empress is also worried about this day and night, I just express my feelings."

Lin Ruhai knew that Daiyu was intelligent, not like an ordinary backyard girl.

Besides, since she will be a clan wife in the future, she should not just stick her eyes to a small house, so she will tell her about many important affairs in the court.

In addition, Daiyu has been brought up by the empress for the past few years, and she has been influenced by her ears and eyes, and she will not just stay on the wind, cloud, moon and dew, and make some romantic talk.

Daiyu smiled at Zhan Jing: "I was going to take this poem to you, but you came first."

She stretched out her hand to caress Shang Chanchan's hair on the sideburns, she felt a slight coolness under her touch, knowing that she had just come back from the outside.Then he slowed down his voice and asked: "It can be seen that after Mr. Xie, everything is clear?"

Shang Chanchan nodded, and picked up Daiyu's recorded poem: "This poem was originally posted in response to the national crisis. 'A few men are husbands', my sister thinks that Xie Ling is right, and she is speaking well for him. "

Daiyu nodded: "The empress is in a dilemma, and she has also discussed with me whether to ask the emperor so that Mr. Xie does not have to go to southern Fujian."

"However, a few days ago, it was said that Mr. Xie was determined and wanted to go to suppress the bandits."

Thinking about what the queen said, Daiyu couldn't help saying: "Nowadays in southern Fujian, there are many dangers and little credit. It's basically to clean up the mess. It's fine if you do it well, but if something goes wrong again, you will be guilty."

The emperor stubbornly resisted the pressure of the emperor, and refused to use the generals of the old minister's family.

Xie's visit is due to a good job, if it is not good, then the Supreme Emperor will definitely take this opportunity to suppress the power of the Emperor.

Facing the Supreme Emperor, Shang Chanchan could only slander in her heart: This is a stroke, why can't your old man just lie down and treat yourself as a mascot?

Daiyu continued: "How many people avoid this kind of errand, or they only speak loud and generous speeches, but they are all empty words to encourage others. I hope others will work hard."

"I'm afraid that the emperor sent me to go. But Mr. Xie is really willing to go, so I feel admiration."

With Daiyu's character, she hates those people who pretend to be famous for their fame.

After hearing this, Shang Chanchan hurriedly shook Daiyu and said, "Sister Lin, I beg you. When you get married with elder brother, it's not too much to pass the letter."

"When the time comes, you can write a handwritten letter and tell him not to worry about it? I'm really afraid that my elder brother will go directly to Xie's house to make a clean break."

She understood Shang Chi's temper, so Shang Ji had no choice but to persuade his sister, but Shang Chi didn't necessarily have to—the disadvantage of smart people is that they always feel that they are better than the world, and they can make arrangements everywhere and make the best choice.

As everyone knows, the three words "for your own good" sometimes cause countless pains.

Shang Chanchan was really afraid that Shang Chi would do "for your own good", so she decided to break off the in-laws.

This time when Shang Chanchan mentioned Daiyu's marriage, Daiyu didn't show her usual shyness.

Instead, he shook Shang Chanchan's hand and said seriously: "He won't do this. You just said that he is quite conceited in the past, and everything should be done according to his own plan."

"However, if you think about it, besides calculating outsiders, has he ever calculated against his own family members?"

"I heard that your second elder brother is also a smart and talented person. It's not that he can't, it's just that he has no intention of career."

"If elder brother Zicheng is really that conceited person who doesn't care about others' wishes, he should also be arranged in the household department to help me, so that he won't be alone."

However, Shang Chi did not force his younger brother to become an official against his will, but let him enter the Chongwen Museum according to Shang Jun's wishes.

If there is any arrangement, it is just to use the situation to guide him, let him recognize a great Confucian master, and he will have more face in Chongwenguan.

"As an elder brother, he may come to persuade you, but he won't directly make such a big choice for you."

Seeing that Shang Chanchan was in a daze, Daiyu continued: "Last Yuan Festival last year, he told me something. Shanghou Lord intended to choose a poor family boy for you, so as to save you from being wronged in the future."

"But he has seen you and Mr. Xie joking and talking together a few times, so he knows that you are speculative, so he went to be a lobbyist in front of Lord Shang."

"Otherwise." Daiyu nodded Shang Chanchan's forehead: "Otherwise, Lord Shang will go to the list to catch his son-in-law. Would you consider him willing to ask you to marry Cheng'en Gong's mansion from the very beginning?"

Shang Chanchan only felt the uneasiness in her heart, which was gradually soothed by Daiyu.

Can't help leaning against Daiyu, the two of them continued to chat about housework and trivial matters.

Now that the Jiang family was worried, Shang Chanchan also took over some family affairs, but she didn't dare to disturb the current Jiang family, so she asked Daiyu for advice.

Then he complained: "Sister Lin, come in and rescue me."

"I used to think that housekeeping was just a matter of reckoning, so there was nothing difficult about it. Unexpectedly, everything in the family is troublesome. It doesn't matter if you don't have a few, but if you don't worry about unevenness. It really doesn't work if the bowl of water is uneven. .”

Daiyu then taught her what she had learned in the past, and she couldn't help laughing: "Our two families are not large, so what should you do when you really come to Xie's house."

Because the two mentioned Shang Chilai, Shang Chanchan suddenly remembered something, and said: "Sister Lin, there is something that was not in a hurry before, but now it is right in front of my eyes. I have to tell you in advance: Your dowry maid, you should be careful Choose."

Daiyu was stunned at first, then couldn't help pinching her cheek, and said with a smile: "Seeing that you don't feel bad anymore, I started talking about these things again!"

Angry and funny in my heart: This kind of dowry is something that Shang Chanchan, a sister-in-law, can talk about?

Shang Chanchan couldn't help crying out for grievances: "I originally set my heart on Mingyue, but Mingyue doesn't understand me!"

"Although Sister Lin always comes and goes to our house, she only stayed with my mother and me. Do you know what kind of maids are in my brother's house?"

Daiyu hung her head and said nothing.

She had really thought about this matter, and even worried about it.

After all, she had stayed in the Rongguo Mansion for a few years before——the maids of the Jia family were all vice ladies, and they all dressed and behaved differently from other families.

Especially the big maids who serve the men, they speak and act more dignifiedly than many serious masters.

Not to mention that daily life is more luxurious, even better than those shameless masters.

The most obvious one is Baoyu House.

Where there are delicious and interesting things in Rongguo Mansion, Baoyu House is naturally the top.

Even the maids in his room are not as honorable as others.

For example, Xiren can eat sugar-steamed crisp cheese and tribute rose dew offered by the imperial concubine, but Yingchun Tanchun may not have them.

Of course, not to mention bastards like Jia Huan and Jia Cong, no one takes them seriously, as long as they don't starve to death.

Daiyu has seen attackers in action.

Although Baoyu doesn't follow Xiren's schedule for everything, it's almost the same. Everything in the house is controlled by Xiren.

Without Xiren, he doesn't even know where to put his monthly silver, let alone the amount.

Daiyu could not help being paranoid after seeing too much, thinking about the future, if she met such a big maid first as soon as she entered the door, she would feel awkward.

Hearing Shang Chanchan's words, she thought she was reminding herself to bring two powerful maids there, so she said, "I know your kindness."

Then he sighed a little: "Father often praises his elder brother, he has a gentle temperament that is rare among men in aristocratic families, so it must be good to treat his servants. As long as they are well behaved, I don't bother to care about it."

Shang Chanchan: ...

No, you are just blinded.

So he said directly: "Lord Lin, that's all. Sister Lin has seen how my brother taught me. Do you still think he has a good temper?"

Daiyu was startled.

Shang Chanchan then told the whole story about the family.
