Little wealth

With the consent of the two parents, the two families went smoothly from marriage proposal to marriage negotiation. The two families exchanged the child's Geng Tie, asked the husband to do the math, and the husband approved four words: a match made in heaven.

Seeing this comment, the people of the two families were very happy.

As for the betrothal gift, the old butler even asked people to prepare a full 180 sets of things for their young son as a betrothal gift, and the palace sent another [-] sets of things.

When he came to Beijing, Josh didn't know that his son was going to get married, and there were a lot of things in Anyang, but now people have to go back to Anyang to transport them, and it will take a month to go back and forth, and they can't wait any longer. Can spend money to prepare temporarily here in Kyoto.Some things are not so easy to buy, but luckily they know quite a few business owners, and hurriedly collected a hundred sets of things, and gave another 10 taels of silver notes to their son as flowers.

"Daddy, it's enough for you to prepare so many things for me. You'd better take these banknotes back." Knowing that the family had prepared so many things for him, Sun Nian gave him another 10 taels of silver notes, saying nothing. Ken wants this banknote.

"You use this for flowers, and there will be a lot of money to spend when you get married. There is only so much the family can give you. Don't say that dad is partial, dad still has to save some for Erbao and Huanhuanxixi I can't give you all the things." Although their family has earned a lot of money over the years, there is not only one child in their family, and Josh also has to think about other children.

The eldest son can still inherit Pingyuanhou's Mansion in the future. He knows that Pingyuanhou's Mansion still has a lot of savings. In the future, these things will belong to this child, and the things in several warehouses are worth more than their little family property.

It's just that he didn't think about letting Xiao Erbao inherit these things from the Hou Mansion at the beginning. After all, this child is the original child, and he never thought about letting his own child replace it.He himself has always treated his children equally, and even spent more time and energy on the eldest son than the other children.It's just that the children have been studying and taking exams outside in the past two years, so they spend much less time together than before.

Hearing his father's words, Sun Nian said dumbfoundedly, "Daddy, what are you talking about? How could I think so. I thought I had money to spend here. You leave the money to Erbao and the others. I will use it." no."

"Whether you need it or not is up to you, and what is given to you is for you." Josh stared, pushed his son's hand back, and said, "You take what is given to you, and you will hand over the family's money from now on." Let Nuomi take care of it, he knows how to manage money."

"When you become an official in the future, you will definitely not have time to take care of these general affairs. From now on, Nuomi will take care of the family. The thing I can rest assured about you is that you have found a good husband like Nuomi, and you will be fine when you marry him back. "He knew that this eldest son was not a person who knew much about common affairs since he was a child. It would be best to marry a good husband who knows how to housekeeper. In the future, everything in the family will be handed over to him.

"Hehehe, I think so too." Sun Nian also felt that his vision was really good, that's why he found his little brother.

The father and son boasted to each other for a few minutes, and finally Sun Nian could only accept his father's wishes.

***

Until the day when they went to Pingyuanhou's Mansion to be hired by Fu's Mansion, the old butler personally led the mighty team there with a cane. The first betrothal gift entered the door of Fu's Mansion, and there were still things that did not leave Pingyuan Hou Fu.

It was also on this day that people in the entire capital knew that the eldest son of the Pingyuanhou Mansion was going to get married, but when it came to the heir apparent of the Pingyuanhou Mansion, few people in Kyoto knew or even met him.

The most indispensable thing here in Kyoto is the excitement and people watching the excitement. As soon as they heard that a house was going up and down, they would give away so many things, and a group of people rushed to watch the excitement.

Until this day, everyone felt strange and asked: "Hey, there is still a son in this Pingyuanhou's mansion? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"What does the eldest son of the Pingyuanhou Mansion look like?"

"Does Mr. Fu have any brothers? Isn't there only one boy?"

"What a kid, he's just a brother."

"Ah, there is only one brother?"

"..."

These people in Kyoto who gossip all day long suddenly discovered that there are things in the capital that they don't know about, not to mention whether they have seen the heir of Pingyuan Hou's mansion, but they have not even heard of it. , as if such a person had never appeared in the city of Kyoto.

But the people outside don't know, it doesn't mean the ministers in the court don't know either.

There are still some people in the court who remember that the emperor appointed the eldest son of their queen's younger brother's family as the eldest son of Pingyuanhou's mansion. After all, this is also the queen's family affairs. These ministers can manage the world, but they can't control other people's family affairs. go?So when they said that the eldest son of the younger brother's family after the establishment of the monarch was the eldest son of the Pingyuan Houfu, they did not object.Wouldn't it be impossible to make the son of their queen's younger brother and the prince in the palace to be the son of the world?If the prince is really changed to the crown prince, they will really oppose it.

The heir of the Pingyuanhou Mansion has not been in the capital much these years, and I heard that he went back to live in the countryside with his family, so these ministers are also very unfamiliar with the heir of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion.

But they suddenly heard that the son of the Pingyuanhou Mansion was the champion of the new department, so at this time, someone went to check whether the son of the Pingyuan Marquis who was so low-key that everyone almost forgot was the champion of the new department. The same person, it turns out that the two people really have the same name and surname, and they are really the same person!

At this time, these ministers can't wait to beat their chests and stamp their feet. If they knew that the champion of the new department was the heir of the Pingyuan Houfu, they would have gone to attack a long time ago. How could it be cheaper for Fu Wenqing!

At the end of the day, when Fu Wenqing returned home early, Master Fu knew that the old housekeeper of the Pingyuan Hou Mansion personally brought people to their house to give the betrothal gift.Seeing the boxes piled up in the whole yard, the fire in his heart had no place to release, but seeing Fu Lang who was happily directing people to move things, he could only hold it in his heart and go back to the study I went to calm down.

On the morning of the next day, Mr. Fu also accepted the envious eyes of many colleagues around him, and the congratulations from everyone in the future.

But regardless of whether Master Fu wants to marry his brother or is reluctant to marry him, the date of his brother's marriage is set at the end of August of the same year.

Since the two families agreed with this marriage, one was willing to marry and the other wanted to marry, they chose a closer date, otherwise they would have to wait until the end of the twelfth lunar month or this time next year to have a good day.The weather at the end of the twelfth lunar month is too cold, and next year we have to wait another year. It is not as good as the date set in August, but the time set in August is a little tighter, and they should be able to catch up if they hurry up.

When preparing for their marriage at home, Sun Nian became the one with the most leisure time in the family. He took the two youngest brothers to play every day. There is one less.Although he no longer needs to study with his grandfather, he still takes his two twin brothers to see his grandfather.

A few years ago, their grandma passed away, and only the grandpa was there.The old man has aged a lot these years, probably because their grandma passed away, the old man is more silent than before, staying in his small yard all day long, not even going out.

When they went to see the old man, the old man was still willing to see them. If someone else went, he might not be able to see the old man.

So this is why those cousins ​​are jealous of their brothers. The grandma had a preference for them when she was alive. Now the grandpa is gone, but every time as long as there are a few brothers, the grandpa will see them Seeing them, even if they didn't go in for a long time, at least it was the door they could get in.

Seeing their grandfather come out, Sun Nian also heard that his cousin was sick. He wanted to go and see him, but he couldn't even enter the door.

Knowing that cousin's temper and behavior, he didn't bother to be a kind person, so he turned around and left, and when he returned in the carriage, he warned the two twins not to go to Fu's house unless they were going to see the grandfather.It's just that the two twins said that the grandfather was fierce, so they didn't dare to go.

He could only explain to the two children, "Grandfather is not fierce, grandpa is too sad."

When he saw his grandfather for the first time when he was a child, he also felt that his grandfather was fierce and not easy to get close to, but after studying with his grandfather for the next few years, Sun Nian knew that the old man had such a temperament, a serious and serious old man.Moreover, he was not merciless at all when whipping him. Later, he found out that the spank that grandpa used to whip him was also used by his emperor's uncle, and he immediately felt a sense of pride.

However, the old man's slapping on him must be because he did not do well enough, so Sun Nian never complained about the old man punishing him.It is probably because of the old man's education that the articles he has written over the years have improved so fast, and it is the old man's credit.

"Then why is grandpa sad?" The two children continued to ask.

"Do you know that there is a kind of bird in this world. There is only one pair in a lifetime. If the other one dies, the remaining one will not survive. Now our grandfather is like this. Our grandmother is not here, and our grandfather is very sad. , I don’t want to live anymore.” After he finished explaining, he saw the two twins with teary eyes, crying and saying that they would go back to comfort the grandfather.

Sun Nian: "..." He felt that Grandpa might not need your comfort.

When he returned to the Hou Mansion and saw his two younger brothers with red eyes, his eldest father thought he was bullying the two younger brothers, and his eyes were not very good.

Sun Nian: If you want to add a crime, there is no excuse!The word "injustice" is capitalized on the forehead!
