Wen Family Has a Wife

The next day, the masters of the entire An Guogong's mansion slept until the sun was high, skipped breakfast, and started serving dishes after lunch.

Chen Ningya had just eaten a cup of bird's nest, and Wen Yuanliang and the pregnant Zhuo Qianyu came over with three children. They had just entered the door, and Hu Yiyun also came behind with a pair of children. Talking and laughing, the hall immediately became lively.

Chen Ningya saw them happy, and ordered to Lan Si: Go and get the box of gold ornaments that the emperor rewarded yesterday.

Zhuo Qianyu and Hu Yiyun were taken aback when they heard the words.

Lan Ling explained with a smile on the side: Yesterday, Eunuch Zhang Xi sent the rewards from the palace. In addition to the royal meals, he also gave an extra box of gold. He said it was given by the emperor privately, and it was not considered a reward. Madam can do whatever she wants. disposal.

Zhuo Qianyu and Hu Yiyun simultaneously gasped and exclaimed: The emperor's grace is mighty, mother, this is the emperor's honor to our family!

Hu Yiyun nodded in agreement, and sighed: Father and mother's treatment is probably the first in the capital!

Only Wen Yuanliang frowned and pondered, Mother, since when did the emperor become so generous, and even sell a box of gold jewelry, why do I feel something is wrong!

Chen Ningya shrugged her shoulders and spread her hands, Don't say you think something is wrong, even I wonder if the emperor has changed his sex! But Eunuch Zhang's expression doesn't seem to be a problem, I think I won't take the benefits for nothing, besides this I couldn’t refuse the things, so I took them away, but I haven’t opened the box yet, and I don’t know what’s inside.”

Speaking of which, Chen Ningya looked at Lan Ling, Have you guys met before?

Lan Ling shook her head resolutely, Madam didn't give orders, and the servants and maids didn't dare to make decisions on their own. They just locked the things in the warehouse and never opened them.

Chen Ningya nodded in satisfaction.

After a while, Lan Si came over with a locked wooden box.

When Wen Yuanliang saw the box, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, Mother, the emperor is really willing to use high-quality red sandalwood to make the box. Didn't he dig gold and silver?

Chen Ningya suddenly looked at him seriously, and joked seriously, Maybe it's true!

Wen Yuanliang, Mother, I'm just saying, don't take it seriously.

Chen Ningya glanced at him, and arrogantly let Lan Siu open the box, the dazzling golden light almost blinded everyone's eyes.

Wen Yuanliang rushed over in surprise, his brows slowly wrinkled,

He picked up a golden hairpin and observed it carefully for a while, put away his jokes and said seriously: Seven green, eight yellow, and nine five red, these are absolute red gold, or the existence of extremely high purity in red gold, and the workmanship is also top-notch. Mother, these things are priceless, Your Majesty... has dug a gold mine?

This time he really wasn't joking.

Chen Ningya hurried forward, picked up the things and looked at them for a long time, with a serious expression on her face.

The reaction of the mother and son was so frightening that the children dared not speak.

It took a while for her expression to return to normal, her eyes fell on gentleness and warmth, and she waved to them both.

The two little girls approached obediently to say hello.

Chen Ningya picked out a pair of butterfly tassel hairpins and a pair of plum flower folding fan tassel hairpins inlaid with white jade from the box and put them in her hands, and asked the two little girls: This pattern is suitable for little girls. You can choose a pair yourself. If you don't like it, grandma will look for it again.

Wen Rou is older than Wen Qing, she turned her head to Wen Qing in a sensible way, and said very generously: My sister chooses first.

Shaking her head tenderly, Mother said that the elder and younger are in order, the elder sister chooses first, and Qing'er chooses the rest.

Seeing how modest the two cousins ​​were, Chen Ningya smiled even deeper, Since you don't want to choose first, why don't grandma make up your mind for you?

The two girls nodded in unison, showing no sign of displeasure.

Chen Ningya looked at the two girls, and said seriously: Rou'er's appearance is graceful and graceful, the plum blossom folding fan and tassel hairpin are suitable for this pair of white jade, Qing'er is delicate and lovely, and the butterfly tassel hairpin is suitable for your temperament.

The two maids saluted and thanked them, took their gold ornaments and asked the maids to carefully put them away.

Zhuo Qianyu and Hu Yiyun smiled at each other, and said: Mother, you really dote on children, but you are just a little girl, how can you use such a precious thing.

I am afraid that the royal princess may not have many gold ornaments of this purity, but the two little girls have more good things than them at a young age.

Hu Yiyun nodded and said: No, Mother has already given them enough!

Chen Ningya snorted arrogantly: If I don't love my own granddaughter, why should I wait for others to hurt me! Besides, I need these things! If I don't think that there will be many grandchildren born in the future, I won't favor one over another. , or I’ll divide everything up right now!”

Speaking of which, Chen Ningya picked out two more golden hairpins, one was a jade hairpin inlaid with peony, and the other was a pearl hairpin embellished with lotus. She gave the peony style to Zhuo Qianyu, and the hibiscus style to Hu Yiyun. Then he picked out an orchid pearl tassel hairpin and handed it to Lan Ling, saying: Take a box and put it in, and send it to Miss Alan.

Everyone's eyes widened in surprise.

Wen Yuanliang raised his eyebrows and asked, Mother, is the matter between the third child and Miss Alan settled?

Chen Ningya didn't hide it from them, and asked Lan Ling to put away the things, and then said unhurriedly: It was decided last night, and I will tell you now.

Wen Yuanliang's face twitched when he heard it, and he was speechless, Then when are you going to announce this to the public?

What's the hurry! Chen Ningya took a sip of tea lazily, and thought leisurely: The third child will also participate in the Spring Festival, so I don't plan to let outsiders know about it before the Spring Festival, which will only increase the conversation of others, Chief Mo I will meet with your father later over there, and we will sit down and discuss it later.

Zhuo Qianyu and Hu Yiyun were even more shocked, and couldn't help asking: That means that the matter between my uncle and Miss Alan hasn't been agreed by Patriarch Mo yet? Is that what you mean?

Chen Ningya nodded hesitantly, Probably, we don't know either!

Mother! The third child is your own youngest son after all. Why do I feel like he was picked? Wen Yuanliang's words were deeply agreed by Zhuo Qianyu and Hu Yiyun. It's not generally prudent, it's fine to come to the door in person, and all the preparations are complete, why is it so casual when it comes to the third daughter-in-law?

What kind of talk is this! Chen Ningya stared dissatisfiedly, and snorted, I want to be cautious and ask someone to propose a marriage in a serious way, but did the third child give me this chance? The groping in the middle of the night yesterday When he entered our house, he and Miss Alan made an agreement when he opened his mouth. The two of you are going to get married. Your father and I are not prepared for it at all. What do you want me to do in such a haste?
