prosperous life

Minister of Rites Rong Fu

Since the twelfth lunar month, twenty households began to prepare for the New Year's expenses. Many people even started to work as soon as the twelfth lunar month entered. In the morning, the butler checks the accounts in the afternoon.

Although the several stewards in the hall are reporting to Zhou Jing, Rong Ningjin is the one who asks questions. Although they only have accounting background, it is easy to understand the books as long as they understand Dasheng's bookkeeping methods. of.

The third room of the Rong family now owns a restaurant called Yue Yanglou, a grocery store that sells everything, and it was given to Rong Ningrui by the big house. Rong Ningjin decided to change the decoration of the store and rename it. Of course, construction will not begin until the first month of next year.

There are also two Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing. Rong Ningjin decided to name Zhuangzi this year.The smaller Zhuangzi is directly named Yuefengzhuang, and the older one is named Qingfengzhuang. After all, people in Zhuangzi always have the same mood whether they want a good harvest for vegetables, fruits, livestock or grain.

This year's income is good. After listening to the reports from the stewards, Rong Ningjin asked the stewards to directly distribute a catty of pork to each household on Zhuangzi, and a catty of fresh vegetables for those who work in Beijing. Let Zhou Cheng do it.

Yue Yang Lou and grocery stores have been closed since the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, and the news will be posted tomorrow. Some regular customers who like Yue Yang Lou dim sum and sauces remind them to buy quickly if they need it.

The tenants on Zhuangzi all rested in November, and there was nothing to say, just ask Zhuangzi to take care of the people below.

Zhou Jing observed his son's actions, and found more and more that this child was very calm and well-mannered, which made Zhou Jing very happy. Of course, it was too early to enjoy the retirement life.

In fact, Rong Ningjin had no other choice. In the past, in modern society, he kept his ears to the outside world and cared only about his own happiness. But now, if he wants to be comfortable in the future, he must be able to go to the living room, to the kitchen, to compose good poems, to write He can write good characters, play famous tunes, solve chess games, fight mistresses, fight hooligans, live in back houses, and play in shops.

At least you have to be able to do half of it, otherwise you will be like a woman and can only be trapped in the back house, but the growth process of a twin is completely different from that of a woman. If you can only stay in the inner courtyard, you will be so aggrieved that you can no longer hold back It's wrong, so there is a reason for Rong Ningjin's ability, everything is for life!

As for Rong Anxian's Spring Posts and Fu characters at home, he can handle it. The kitchen is also filled with all kinds of meat and vegetables, and the stewards in the house have bought firecrackers and other things in advance.

On the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, the servants in the yard put on new clothes one after another. Because the cleaning and tidying up work was done yesterday, the next two days were spent wandering around to check. There are not many small red envelopes, five for those who have just arrived, ten for those who have been over one year, fifteen for those who have been over three years, and another five for those who are in charge.

So with the completely new courtyard background, the maids tied with small silk flowers and the energetic boys, even the elderly stewards and nuns all had smiling faces, and the house was full of joy.

On New Year's Eve, Rong Ningjin added five new dishes to the menu prepared by the chef: fresh chicken stewed with chestnuts means good luck, sea cucumber and tofu soup means good fortune like the East China Sea, fried pork ribs with sauce means rising every day, sweet and sour Carp symbolizes abundance every year, so there are naturally dumplings during the Chinese New Year, because the food here is a kind of fried food similar to spring rolls, Rong Ningjin personally cooked dumplings and even made a cage of seafood soup dumplings , very thin and juicy stuffing.

Rong Anxian and Rong Ningrui both ate a lot of New Year's Eve dinner, which made Rong Ningzhu very tasty when she returned to her natal home. Of course, Rong Ningzhu didn't know about it now, she was preparing the New Year's Eve dinner with her mother-in-law.

The family sat down together at the New Year's Eve dinner. Rong Anxian first raised his wine glass and said to Zhou Jing, "A lot happened before, only you have been with me from the beginning to now, so I hope you will continue to be with me in the future." He drank and stared at Zhou Jing.

Zhou Jing patted Rong Anxian on the shoulder and said to the two onlookers, "Your father knows that I will take you back to Dengzhou to visit relatives after the new year. This is a narrow-mindedness!"

Rong Ningjin looked at her father who was a little nervous, and then at her father who was slightly teasing. What's going on?Rong Ningrui also had question marks in his head, but the good boy of the people would not show it.

Rong Ningjin glanced at her brother, and the two brothers decided to dig out the things that their father and mother had to say if they had the opportunity.

Zhou Jing didn't care about his depressed husband or his sons who were obviously eager to try, he just picked up a soup dumpling, Rong Ningjin saw it and quickly handed over the small bowl with vinegar, minced chili, sugar garlic, coriander and other condiments. In the past, the way of eating soup dumplings was mentioned.

Then Rong Anxian and Rong Ningrui also made their hands on the soup dumplings, but after all, it was winter or the mainland, and seafood was hard to find and the price was high, so a basket of eight soup dumplings was wiped out in the blink of an eye.

Naturally, there will be dumplings in the back, because Rong Ningjin was afraid that the dumplings would not taste good, so she ordered the kitchen to cook them later and bring them over. Sure enough, the soup dumplings were finished, and the dumplings were just on the table after tasting the dishes.

Rong Anxian and Zhou Jing liked the dumplings very much, because the dumplings made by Rong Ningjin looked like ingots, so they were pleasing to the eye. Zhou Jing ate two, and almost snapped his teeth when he ate the third.

In modern times, some people would put coins in dumplings, so Rong Ningjin simply put a small goldfish in, and told her parents and elder brother that there is good fortune in the dumplings, so eat slowly, but don’t eat them whole. Jinfang's little goldfish is about the size of a dumpling, so there is no possibility that it can be swallowed directly...

While Rong Ningjin envied her father's good luck, she was despised by her father and elder brother at the same time. Seeing that you are stingy, can't you pack a few more?At least one per person!

The meal is lively and lively, and the wine made at home is not high in alcohol content. After dinner, they go to the yard to set off firecrackers, and the whole family rests after a while.

On the first day of the first lunar month, the clans would enter the palace to congratulate them, and Rong Anxian and the others were from the second year of junior high school, so naturally they didn't have to rush too much.

After Rong Ningjin got up, she realized that it was snowing outside. When Bai Zhi and Bai Shu came in to serve, they first said a lot of auspicious words, received a reward, and then said that the snow outside fell in the middle of the night, and it stopped at dawn , but not small.

Mrs. Rong Anxian took the child to the uncle's mansion on the way to greet him after breakfast. On the way, Rong Ningjin looked at the snow-white ground and wanted to touch it. Now there is no air pollution. What about building a snowman? You can play snowball fights as much as you want, but after all, you are afraid of the cold and Rong Ningjin, you are the master of everyone, hold back! !

Of course, it is still possible to play in my own yard after I go back~ Of course, my brother is indispensable.

Old Mrs. Rong was still in good health. When he saw Rong Ningrui and Rong Ningjin coming over, he gave them a red envelope, which made the Erfang gang feel sour.

Regardless of whether the red envelope is thick or not, Rong Momo and Rong Moheng cannot get it as granddaughters, unless the old lady Rong continues to marry an heir.

When the second room of the Rong family left the uncle’s house, he only had more than 300 taels in his hand. He bought nearly half of the yard flowers, and added some furniture, and there were only about a hundred taels left. After the Thousand Yuan Festival, Rong Mo and Rong Mo Heng's two concubine daughters, if they don't all get new ones, there will always be one or two new pieces of jewelry or clothes, which is nearly 20 taels again.

The cost of 20 taels for the new year is unstoppable. I used to eat and use some things before, but now I can’t save it even if I change it. I just buy it according to the good ones. It's too much, originally the couple thought that the other party took the money secretly, but they didn't know until later when they did the calculations, didn't they?

The cost of big head flowers has been reduced, even the daily food and drink is also an expense. In this way, more than 30 taels is really a lot, and because Yang has never managed it during the Chinese New Year, and the two concubines don’t understand it, but it took ten taels. Bought two women to go back to work.

Rong Angui didn't make a living, so Yang's dowry was only 1000 taels back then, and it was filled into the dowry when her biological daughter got married, so even a penny is rare for the second wife.

Rong Molu and Rong Moheng have been staring at Rong Ningrui and Rong Ningjin since they came in, even though the brothers Rong Ningjin could feel the ferocity of those gazes through the screen.

Rong Ningjin and her elder brother are both brand new glazed satin clothes, but Rong Ningjin's clothes are embroidered with blessing patterns, Rong Ningrui's clothes are embroidered with cloud patterns, and the accessories are also good, Rong Ningrui directly uses hosta Zi tied up her hair, while Rong Ningjin combed the upper part of her hair into a small bun with a gold ribbon, and even left her bangs...

On the other hand, Rong Molu and Rong Moheng are both dressed up during the Thousand Yuan Festival. I also know that the Yang family will not be kind enough to buy things for the concubine girls. The Thousand Yuan Festival is to let them get married quickly. Reluctantly made a difference.

Rong Ningrui and Rong Ningjin were enjoying the baptism of their envious and jealous eyes there, Zhou Jing turned a blind eye to Master Rong Er who wanted to talk to him.

Rong Anxian also said a few words to Mr. Rong and Mr. Rong, especially when Mr. Rong saw Rong Ningrui's attire, he hurriedly asked if he was engaged. I was so happy that I insisted on keeping Sanfang here for lunch.

Rong Anxian doesn't want to stay here, especially if the third room stays here and the second room must be here, then his elder brother will be very depressed.So Rong Anxian used the excuse that he will enter the palace tomorrow to congratulate him, and his wife Zhou Jing received the imperial edict from the empress to take Brother Jin to the palace to pay her respects and meet the imperial concubine Qing by the way. up.

Now not only Mr. Rong remembered, but everyone else also remembered that Ren Zhou's family still had a lady in the palace, and a group of old and young people immediately had nothing to say.

Sanfang walked away amidst crackling eyes.
