prosperous life

Beijing Suburb Yuefengzhuang

"Zhou Cheng, the tenants who are harvesting grain are busy and tired these days. I ordered them to cut off a catty of meat for each of them, so as to reward them for their hard work."

Rong Ningjin looked at these golden ears of wheat and was very kind. In her previous life, she was also from a farming family, and suddenly became a combination of the second generation of officials and the second generation of rich people, but she has been adapting to her studies.

The harvest of the Rong Family Zhuangzi was not affected much last year, and the tenants have contributed a lot. Of course, Zhou Cheng led the Rong Family servants to do the main technical work, and they received the most rewards.

Looking at it this year, the harvest is not good. The tenants are beaming and say that this year is good. As for why the crops in other people's fields are not as good as the Rong family's, the tenants agree that the Rong family is good, and they are blessed by heaven.

Rong Ningjin was very relieved of Zhou Cheng, and let him go down to deal with it after giving orders.

The day after tomorrow is Zhou Fan's big day, so naturally he has to entertain guests, but there are not enough cooks, maids and servants for the wedding banquet, so the Rong Mansion sent some people to help. Must be blood relatives.

Rong Ningjin prepared two dim sum chefs who specialize in making wedding cakes. There is no need to make too many, but they must be displayed beautifully and eye-opening.

The third room of the Rong family’s Yueyang Building was developed by Zhou Jing, and later Rong Ningjin made some suggestions based on some modern concepts. Fortunately, the third master Rong was already powerful and powerful at that time, otherwise the business of Yueyang Building Not only does it make people jealous.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong, Rong Ningjin took the maid and went back to the house. When she got off the carriage and was about to enter the door, there was a sound of horseshoes, which was obviously in the direction of her home. Rong Ningjin turned her head and saw her cousin Zhou Fan Getting off the horse.

"Why did my cousin come here?" Zhou Fan just got the position of the Habayashi Army. They belong to the young soldiers, and they are considered public positions without grades. Of course, they still have a monthly salary of ten taels. The title of the product.

There is no war in Beijing, that is, seniority, which is different from Rong Ningrui and the others who made military achievements. Zhou Fan and the others retired after being promoted.

In particular, the upper echelons of the Habayashi Guard are all paratroopers favored by the emperor, and those who basically have no military merit go in to make up for their salary.

"Brother Jin, I just came here after changing shifts in the outer garden, um, I will get married in the future... I think the congratulatory ceremony prepared by you and my cousin should be almost the same.

Your cousin and aunt have prepared well, but the wedding cakes are not prepared, and the cooks in the house are not skilled, so I asked my cousin, if there are too many wedding cakes here, then let the house not prepare them ,hehe……"

Zhou Fan came here by his mother's order, but he still scratched his hair with a blushing face.

It would be embarrassing for anyone else, he got married and ran over to ask his little cousin to help with things, which made Zhou Fan, who had just become a member of the Habayashi Army, very helpless.

"Don't worry, cousin, I've called two pastry chefs to take care of it!" Rong Ningjin felt that she was well prepared.

In Dasheng wedding cakes are actually more festive snacks, prepared by the man’s family, and also given by relatives. On the wedding day, they should be displayed together with other festive objects, and they should be placed in the most conspicuous place.

This is not only a sweet blessing to the new couple, but also a kind of beating to the bride. There are many talented people in the mother-in-law's family. If the new daughter-in-law wants to please her mother-in-law, she must first practice her skills. Of course, it is only a formality now. That's all.

Zhou Fan got an affirmative reply and rode away joyfully. He received a report from his servants that his youngest son came back, but no one came in. Zhou Jing, who came out of the mansion to see what happened, had a question mark in his head: "My nephew was killed by Brother Jin." Excited?How do you run so fast?

Taichang Temple Shaoqing Zhou Mansion

The chief steward of the mansion just welcomed a group of congratulators, just after wiping off his sweat, he saw a carriage not far away, and hurriedly asked the servant to prepare for a while and arrange the carriages and entourage of the guests.

The chief steward himself verified that the wedding invitation invited the guests in, and another steward in the cashier put away the gift list, and ordered two servants to take the gift and put it aside.

The chief steward's surname is Wu Mingbing, and people in the mansion call him the old steward. When Zhou Fang and his wife came to the capital, he followed him from Dengzhou and started working in the mansion.

Zhou Jing was worried that his younger brother and his wife decided to transfer someone there, so he chose him.

Recently, Wu Bing was very happy. The young lady got married and the young master became more sensible. Now that the young master is getting married again, it can be predicted that life in the mansion will get better and better in the future. Maybe next year there will be a young master Sun.

The old steward himself and himself giggled happily, looking at the accountant on the opposite side who was puzzled, but fortunately, the old man didn't forget to pick up the guests... to greet the guests.

Rong Ningjin and her mother, Zhou Jing, were sitting together. On the table were Huguogong's wife Cui and her granddaughter Zheng Er, Cheng Guogong's wife Zhuo and her granddaughter Jin Er, and the daughters-in-law of their respective houses. He sat at another table with his granddaughter-in-law.

"The pattern of this wedding cake is really fresh. I haven't seen it before. If I remember correctly, it was sent by Mrs. Rong's family, right?" Mrs. Cui, the wife of Huguogong, is a very talkative old lady. Just amiable.

Miss Zheng Er followed her own grandmother's appearance very much, and her expression was also very kind, which was even more obvious when she was accompanied by the apricot yellow skirt.

"It was made by the pastry chefs at home. The tricks and ideas given by our brother Jin, the masters can do well." Zhou Jing praised his children, no matter internally or externally, he was consistent, and the children were definitely his own good.

"He's a good boy. He's skilled and smart, and he's a better-looking person. No wonder the Prince of Lianyang was so eager to ask for a marriage and asked the Holy One to give him a marriage." Cheng Guogong's wife, Mrs. Zhuo, also praised him.

Zhuo, the wife of Duke Cheng, is different from Cui, the wife of Duke Hu.

Cui was born in Huaizhou and was just the daughter of an ordinary wealthy family. At that time, when the dynasty was changing, Cui met the old Huguogong and the current Huguogong Zheng Qiao on the way to escape. She married for the sake of her family and herself. Zheng Qiao was born recklessly.

Duke Cheng's wife, Mrs. Zhuo, is the daughter of a Xiangzhou family, and Duke Cheng himself was born in a great family of Xiangzhou. The previous Duke Cheng could be said to be a hero with insight and support, and the Jin family took advantage of the trend.

The daughter-in-law Zhuo chose for the eldest son was also the daughter of a wealthy family in Zezhou. This is why the second prince is not welcomed in the Jin family. You have the style and honor of the second prince, but where is your own behavior?

It was not easy to be praised by the two old ladies, Rong Ningjin naturally wanted to be modest and prudent, not arrogant or impetuous, thanked the two elders, and started talking with Miss Jin Er and Miss Zheng Er.

"I heard that my brother's elder brother made meritorious service at the border?" Miss Zheng Er asked with a smile.

Second Miss Zheng, Zheng Weiwei, has also reached the age to discuss marriage. After the Zheng family inquired about many families, they began to regret why they did not discuss marriage with the Rong family earlier.

Zheng Weiwei listened to his parents talking, admired Rong Ningrui's youthful talent, but also knew that ordinary girls couldn't catch him, so his mentality was balanced.

"Yes, in the early days, I heard that the Holy Majesty gave the family a lot of rewards?" Second Miss Jin also echoed with a smile.

Rong Ningrui has made a lot of contributions at the border. Now, in two years, he has been promoted from Zuo Sige of the eighth rank to the captain of Zhechongfu, the seventh rank. The two people can also take care of each other on the battlefield, which also makes the two families feel at ease.

"Thank you two sisters for your concern. My brother has indeed made meritorious service and not only received a reward but also got a promotion. My father said that my brother did a good job and asked him to stay at the border for two more years."

After a pause, she said, "My sister-in-law felt very distressed, so she followed her directly." Rong Ningjin was dressed in light yellow brocade clothes today, and her eyes flickered when she spoke, showing that she wanted to pretend to be tender.

Second Miss Jin looked surprised when she heard that, Zhuo Shi, the wife of Mrs. Cheng Guo, frowned slightly.

Miss Zheng Er looked like she had nothing to do with herself, she still smiled and talked to Rong Ningrui, with a charming smile and beautiful eyes, Rong Ningrui also understood why the emperor and Concubine Qing had taken a fancy to her before. The candidate for the concubine is Miss Zheng Er, but she is unwilling.

Just as I was talking, there was the sound of firecrackers outside, which indicated that the bride and groom had arrived

Zhou Fan went to the east hall where the outsider was, while the bride came to the south hall to entertain the family members.

The bride is Xu Meiyan, the eldest daughter of Xu Ying, the servant of the Ministry of Officials. Miss Xu San is petite and exquisite, and she can be praised as beautiful and dignified, but the Xu family has many daughters, but there are only daughters.

Xu Meiyan is the only prostitute daughter, because Xu Meiyan only has sisters, so there are many fewer people who propose marriage, let alone good ones. Some time ago, Xu Ying just got a son and only got in touch with the Zhou family.

The atmosphere in the south hall is basically harmonious, but the east hall is very lively.

Zhou Fan toasted from table to table, especially at Rong Anxian's table. Zhou Fan and his father Zhou Fang didn't talk much, but directly used drinking to increase their relationship.

But Zhou Jing told her husband not to drink too much, or else the study would serve him, making Rong Anxian drink, neither did he stop drinking, nor did he keep explaining, but let the people who came to the wedding banquet laugh and talk about the relationship between Rong Anxian and his wife good.

After a lively day, everyone left before the evening. After all, the bridal chamber wedding night is a great event in life, and no one would be so ignorant.
