Evening Shaohua in the Red House

Danju took Suyun to register and make a register, and the first few boxes were filled with silk and satin of various colors.

After registering at the gauze place, Dan Ju saw that there were several bolts of sky blue solid yarn inside, some with various patterns of folded branches, and some with patterns of flowers worn by butterflies. Wear it for grandma, the material is also soft, thick and light, and it is good for making jackets and skirts."

Hearing this, Li Wan glanced at it, nodded and said: "The color is pretty good. Tomorrow, I'll cut a dress for me with the folded branch pattern, and then make a cotton gauze jacket for Lan'er with the butterfly and flower pattern."

Danju smiled and agreed.

Suyun was counting the soft cigarettes at the side, and said with a smile when he heard the words: "Although it is for official use, I think it is not worse than the ones used by the government. The color is fresh and the yarn is light and soft. It is not bad for making clothes. .”

Dan Ju was lowering her head to make a book, when she heard the words, she raised her head and glanced, said with a smile: "This soft smoke is too light in color, I'm afraid it won't look good for making clothes, but it's good for making curtains and quilts."

Li Wan was very curious about the soft smoke mentioned in the book when he was reading the book before, but this is the first time he saw it today. As expected, there are only four colors. There are also those in the pattern of folding branches, some in the pattern of flowing clouds and bats, and some in the pattern of hundreds of butterflies piercing flowers. There are twelve horses in total, three for each color.

Li Wan glanced through it briefly, and suddenly saw a very delicate red sandalwood openwork carved with a hundred flowers in gold in a box cage. When he opened it, he couldn't help being startled. It turned out that the box was full of small drawers. All kinds of gold and jade heads, jewelry.

The first three drawers are full of emerald tins and golden bracelets, Yao hairpins and treasures.These gold jade hairpin rings are either inlaid with pearls or inlaid with gemstones, all of which are extremely delicate and unique, with jewels and dazzling flowers.

The fourth drawer contained a whole set of top-quality suet white jade noodles and a box of pearls.

There are a total of 23 pieces in that set, including hairpins, hairpins, distractions, heart-picks, temple covers, bracelets, rings, earrings, etc. The jade is warm and delicate, as tender as suet, and carved into hibiscus patterns, which is very delicate. Unique; that box of pearls is also the size of a little finger, round and crystal clear.

There is another box in the last drawer, but it contains all kinds of rare treasures such as red sapphires, agate stones, diamonds, cat's eyes, etc.

Many jewels shone brightly under the sun, dazzling flowers, both Danju and Suyun gasped, and said in surprise: "This... this is too precious!"

Li Wan was not surprised at all. With the status of the Seventh Prince's husband and wife,

As far as people are concerned, these gold, jade and jewelry are the lightest gifts.

After playing with it for a while, Li Wan picked out some hairpin jewelry and planned to distribute them to the four Daiyu sisters.

Daiyu is better, with Lin Ruhai's farm store prepared for her, she has made a lot of money in a year, and she still has a lot of money in her hands.

Although Sanchun is a lady of the government's mansion, she only uses it according to the rules, and there is no subsidy except for the rules in the officialdom.

Yingchun's biological mother passed away early, Jia Amnesty did not care about this daughter, Mrs. Xing was stingy by nature, let alone make up for her, Jia Lian and Sister Feng also treated this younger sister.

Needless to say, Tanchun, it would be good if Aunt Zhao didn't come to cause trouble, and it would not be easy for Tanchun to save a few pennies.

Xichun is not much better. She lost her mother since she was a child, and her father became a monk. Although she has a brother and sister-in-law, Jia Zhen and Youshi have never cared about her sister. , so there is no sense of existence, and it seems to be nothing.

After coming to this world for several years, Li Wan really loves these poor and lovely girls, and truly feels their difficulties. After getting along for so many years, she also sincerely regards these girls as her own sisters look at.

The others were still sorted and put away, so Suyun put them away. For the future, the more gold and jewels he saved, the better.

Not long after, all kinds of things have been counted and put back into the cage one by one.

Kankan tidied up most of it, then saw Daiyu and others coming in talking and laughing.

Li Wan looked up and saw Sanchun coming back with a plum blossom alone, but Daiyu's hands were empty, so he couldn't help laughing and said, "Why isn't my sister satisfied?"

Daiyu shook her head and said, "I don't like folding flowers. It would be a pity to fold them off."

Li Wan knew that Daiyu was a little sensitive and thoughtful, and was most susceptible to tears, hurting spring and autumn, so it was not surprising to hear this, she just laughed without saying a word.

Tanchun glanced at Daiyu and said with a smile, "You're the one who is particular."

Yingchun handed the plum blossoms in her hands to the girl to fill them with water and set them up. Looking at the unfinished silks and satins on the kang, she couldn't help wondering: "Why are there so many things suddenly? Where did they come from?"

Daiyu glanced at them and saw that they were all useful things, she guessed it with a second thought, and said with a smile: "Let me guess, it turned out to be a thank you gift from the princess to my sister-in-law."

Li Wan laughed and said: "That's right, the concubine sent quite a few here. Some of them are said to be last year's fresh designs with bright colors, but I can't wear them. I'm going to ask you to pick them out."

Hearing this, Tanchun laughed and said, "It's enough for us to share one horse.

I need a lot of them here, even if my sister-in-law doesn't wear them, it's good to give them away. "

Li Wan laughed and said: "Where can I give away so much, I have to keep it until the year of the monkey. These silks and satins are not durable, and the color will not be fresh after a few years. Wouldn't it be a pity to put them old for nothing?"

After saying that, Suyun laid out all kinds of silks and satins, and said to Daiyu and the others: "They are all our own people, don't be stung by scorpions, come quickly and see what kind of tricks you like."

Daiyu and the others couldn't refuse, so they had to choose a piece of gauze each.

Seeing this, Li Wan shook his head, and decided to give each of them a big red dora, a silver-red gold brocade, and a pomegranate red satin. He also distributed the hairpin rings and jewelry he had just picked out to the four of them, saying: "These I don't even need it, it's too mildewy for nothing, you take it, just make two clothes for the next year, the girl's house should be more brightly dressed.

The pearl hanging is for sister Lin, the ruby ​​rose hairpin and the pair of earrings are for the third sister, the jasper bracelet is for the second sister, and the two bead necklaces are for the fourth sister. "

Yingchun and the others were taken aback, and refused to accept it. Daiyu knew her temperament well, so she no longer refused, ordered Zijuan to accept it, and said with a smile: "Today, I missed my sister-in-law's good stuff."

The three of Yingchun looked at each other, and had no choice but to accept it, grateful in their hearts.

Li Wan saw that there were eight pieces of pomegranate red damask left, and the pomegranate damask was five feet long each. Such clothes could not be worn out for more than ten years, not to mention that she couldn't wear bright red, and the material was easy to mold after being left for a long time. Bad, so I called Dan Ju and said: "Take a pomegranate red silk and cut it into a ruler. You and Zijuan play chess and the others will each share a piece. When spring comes in a year, you can make a skirt to wear."

Danju knew that Li Wan was generous, so after thanking him, she cut off the ruler head and distributed it to Zijuan and the others.

Zijuan Shiqi and others are very happy, this is a good material for use in the world, although it is only a ruler, it is not as good as the whole cloth of Daiyu and others, but it is still enough to make a suit of clothes.

After tidying up the cloth for a while, only the twelve boxes of palace flowers remained on the table.

Li Wan opened it and took a look, and saw that the palace flowers were all kinds of flowers made of gauze, which were no different from real flowers, extremely bright and unique, so he smiled at Daiyu and others: "These are said to be made in the palace." Fresh patterns, fresh flowers from piles of gauze, I’m a widow, I can’t wear these, so let’s leave one box for Feng girl, another box for Dongfu’s sister-in-law and Rong’s daughter-in-law tomorrow, and the rest Take it and share it."

Sister Daiyu heard the words, and according to the words, each of them picked a box according to their own preferences.

Li Wan took another box to the girl

They laughed and said: "You also choose two to wear."

Everyone thanked them, and went forward to choose with a smile. Danju picked two chrysanthemums, a bright red golden-backed red, and a golden-yellow red-lined golden bead; Zijuan picked a rhododendron and a crabapple. , Siqi Shishu and others also chose.

Everyone hurriedly thanked them and said with a smile: "We're all done today."

Yingchun pursed her lips and smiled, "Sister-in-law's things are almost finished by us."

Tanchun also laughed and said, "It looks like we are here to rob."

Everyone who said it couldn't help laughing.

After joking for a while, everyone had lunch and went back to their rooms to rest.

In the evening, Li Wan rested on the kang with his eyes closed, his mind full of thoughts. According to the time calculation in the original book, the enthronement of Emperor Yongyuan and the enthronement of the new emperor should have happened in the past two years.

Although Li Wan had been detained in the inner court these years and was not allowed to go out, he had been secretly paying attention to the movements in the court. In the past few years, the princes had been fighting openly and secretly, and the battle for the throne had become fierce.

Emperor Yongyuan had just passed his 20th birthday this year, and he had a very rich number of heirs. There were more than 30 princes and more than 29 princesses, but many died, and only [-] really grew up, of which only eleven were princes.

Among the princes, Prince Yizhong was of the most honorable birth. He was the second of his brothers, and he was the son of the Queen of the Palace. He was established as the crown prince at the age of three, but he was deposed for some reason more than ten years ago, and he was imprisoned in the palace for less than a year. Then he died in depression.

In recent years, Emperor Yongyuan has grown older. Seeing that the princes are fighting openly and secretly for the throne, he is bored and can't help but miss his son who was brought up by himself. After many years, Emperor Yongyuan's various dissatisfaction with the former prince also fades with time. It disappeared, but instead a father-son relationship arose. Last year, regardless of everyone's opposition, he insisted on making him the Prince of Yizhong.

Although Prince Yizhong passed away, he left behind an eldest son, Tu Xi. Although he was a concubine, he was born with a romantic and handsome appearance, capable of both civil and martial arts, quite like his father.

Emperor Yongyuan was extremely ashamed of his deceased son, and he even loved his eldest son, so he named him King of Ningjun.

Since the death of Prince Yizhong, the princes have been fighting fiercely for the throne, among which the eldest prince, third prince, fourth prince, and fifteen prince are the most vocal.

As the saying goes, if the eldest son is born, the eldest son is not born by the empress, but he occupies the position of the eldest son, and has outstanding military achievements, so he is extremely supported by the conservative faction in the court.

The third prince was born of the noble concubine Zhou.

Said, and compatriots with the five princes and one mother, the two are in the same spirit, and have many fans.

The mother of the four princes, Concubine De, was born in a poor family, and her parents were mediocre, but she was raised under the empress' knees earlier, and she was considered a half-legal son. support.

The fifteenth prince is only 14 years old. It is reasonable to say that no matter how seniority is considered, he will not be able to succeed to the throne. However, his mother, Concubine Zhen, is deeply favored, and behind her is the support of the Zhen family in Jiangnan. There are many people around him, and her momentum is close to the emperor. eldest son.

The remaining six princes and eight princes died early, and the nine princes and ten princes were born of court ladies, and their aptitudes were quite mediocre and unremarkable.

The seventh prince's family is a great Confucian in the former dynasty, and is very famous among scholars, but his mother and concubine died young, and the seventh prince seems to only want to be a good king. In my free time, I just read books and play chess in the mansion, or recite poems and discuss paintings with Qing Ke Xianggong, but I have a very good relationship with you brothers.

In the original book, the Zhen family was confiscated and exiled, and it was unlikely that the fifteen princes would ascend to the throne. Moreover, the Zhen family's power in the court was deeply intertwined, and it had become a trend that could not be lost. Emperor Yongyuan would never allow a prince with such a relative to succeed him.

Although the First Prince is the eldest son and has military merits, but I heard that he is straightforward and has a rather violent temper. Such a person is unlikely to be the person that Emperor Yongyuan prefers.

Depending on the situation, the third, fourth and seventh princes are the most likely, but it's hard to say who they are.

Li Wan thought for a while, but still couldn't figure it out, so he couldn't help but sighed, that's all, even if the Seventh Prince really succeeds in the future, it is impossible for the other party to let the Jia family go just because of this so-called life-saving grace.

She should honestly save some more money for the future. No matter who succeeds in the future, it has nothing to do with her. The water here is too deep, and she doesn't want to get involved.

The author has something to say: Sorry for the lateness, the second update is here~
