Chapter 686 Chapter 685

Speaking of this, Qi Baoer is just thinking about it. Everyone is not smart but has enough experience. In a special period like today when they have to go to various households to 'drop in', everyone has made preparations before going out. , knees wrapped in thick cushions that is the most basic.

Besides, in fact, there are not many times when they really need to kneel. Every family who comes out to receive guests today will only send out juniors who are about the same age and look like elders at home. The fame is not high, and there is no need to kneel to each other.

Qi Baoer said a few words with meaning, encouraged the older ones, praised the younger ones, and then smiled and asked Qiuyu to distribute the red envelopes she had prepared to everyone.

The red envelope mentioned here is not the kind of red envelope wrapped in red paper, but the purse embroidered with red cloth.

The red envelopes are presented on trays for them to take by themselves. Anyway, the items inside are of the same value, but the styles are different. If she distributes them, it will be a reward. Even if the styles are not to their liking, they dare not exchange them casually in private. ; Take it yourself, that’s up to you.

Visiting during the Chinese New Year is like rushing to a meeting. Several people from the Prince Jin Mansion invited An to accept the gift, then resigned and transferred to the next family.

And Qi Baoer continued to receive the next group of guests in the same way.

However, after more than a dozen people from Prince Jin's Mansion left the Great Princess' Mansion, the youngest one quietly opened the red envelopes without holding back their curiosity.

"Wow, third sister, third sister, so beautiful."

The little girl took out a crystal clear jade pendant from the small jade rabbit, and stomped her feet with joy.

The girl she called Third Sister glanced at the jade pendant in her hand and was startled, and quickly opened her purse, and sure enough, there was also a cub of the same jade quality and about the same size inside.

She was not happy at the first moment, but looked at the oldest boy with some anxiety, "Brother???"

This gift is too expensive, can they accept it?
Seeing that other people were eager to open their purses, the boy hurriedly stared at him, quickly put his own purse back into his sleeve, and then put his little sister's jade into her bosom, speaking at a rapid pace. It was a few minutes faster for the third sister to quickly put the jade tiger away.

Everyone was tensed by his reaction, and quickly put away their purses.

The boss still worried and said, "Don't ask anyone who knows what the princess rewarded us? Especially you, little sister; the princess appointed it to us because of the good relationship between grandfather and Mr. Qi." Such a good thing, others may not necessarily, we can't make it difficult for the princess."

All the cute babies nodded with earnest expressions, and the little girl patted her small chest in a childlike voice and assured her, "I won't tell even if Dad asks."

The boss smiled and nodded her little nose, but he didn't refute her words.

It's really that his third uncle is too outrageous, spoiling his concubine and destroying his wife to the point that even the juniors like them can't look down on him. His third aunt's dowry was taken away by the third uncle and given to that young aunt. With such a fine jade pendant in his hand, [-]% will eventually fall into Aunt Qing's hands again.

More than a dozen brothers and sisters were carrying treasures in their arms, and they didn't dare to visit each other again. They were afraid of losing the treasures, so they hurriedly turned a corner and went home first.

The main courtyard of Jinwang Mansion.

Old Jin Wang stared at the row of jasper animals and everyone was numb, "Luo Ning, who gave these to you?"

It's not that he didn't hear clearly just now, but it's really hard to believe.

Jun Luoning repeated what he said just now, "Grandfather, it was rewarded by Princess Anle, and we also have a red envelope, two taels of silver each."

The old king of Jin was silent for a moment and then smiled, "You can take what the princess gave you. This is a meeting gift from the princess."

Not reassuring, he said: "Take it back and put it away by yourself, don't lose it, these are high-quality jade, there is nothing you can't buy for a few hundred taels, even if you have a few hundred taels, you may not be able to buy it good stuff."

Can be good things as family heirlooms.

To be honest, although their lineage has won a hereditary title, but his father is too good at giving birth, there are only a dozen brothers and sisters in his generation, and the next generation and the next generation, that number can Said to be multiplied and multiplied in length.

Even if there are fiefs and titles, there are so many mouths to feed, and not all of them are capable; no, Jin Wang's mansion looks glamorous on the surface, but in fact everyone is living a tight life inside.

The few children didn't know the hardships of life, but they also knew the truth about the fact that the Jin Palace was not rich, so after hearing their grandfather say that they can take care of things by themselves, they all happily took back their own and prepared to go back and hide them.

Boys prepare this to be used as a dowry in the future, and girls are prepared to receive it as a dowry in the future.
-
Just after seven o'clock, the princess mansion became lively.

As Steward Qi guessed, there are quite a few young people who have come to the Grand Princess' Mansion to 'drop in' this year.

The first ones to come in were the younger generation from Jinwang Mansion opposite.

Originally, Princess Hexiao lived on the opposite side of the Great Princess’s Mansion. After Princess Hexiao went crazy, the emperor gave a piece of fiefdom on the grounds of allowing Princess Hexiao to recuperate from her illness. To 'send' the past.

The mansion on the opposite side has been vacant for more than two years after Princess Hexiao's family moved out. The old King Jin who had been in the fief six years ago was seriously ill, and was taken back to Beijing by the emperor to recuperate.

The old King Jin used to have a King Jin Mansion in the middle of the capital, which was located on the South Street of the Inner City; but it was only a few years after the old King Jin’s family left Beijing for fiefdom more than [-] years ago, because the servants guarding the mansion were not dedicated. However, it caught fire unexpectedly, and the entire Prince Jin Mansion was burned down.

Although it was rebuilt later, after it was completed, it was no longer the Jin Palace, but it was given to the meritorious ministers at that time.

So this time when the old King Jin returned to Beijing, the emperor gave the old King Jin the Mansion of Princess Hexiao. The mansion in the second alleyway to the east is a circle larger than the original King Jin Mansion. Naturally, there is nothing better for the old King Jin. unsatisfied.

Qi Bao'er heard from her grandfather that this time the old King Jin returned to the capital, and the older generation in his family did not come back with him, but all the dozen or so younger generations returned to Beijing with the old King Jin.

At this moment, there were a dozen or so standing in front of Qi Bao'er, the oldest one was a man who looked about fourteen or five years old, and the youngest one was four or five years old.

"Greetings to Princess Anle."

"Greetings to Princess Anle."

Taking the older one as the way, including the little girl who was four or five years old, they all knelt down to pay their respects in a dignified manner.

Although their grandfather was the king of Jin, they had neither title nor fame. When they saw Qi Baoer, no matter whether it was a second-rank servant or a second-rank princess, they should kneel down to pay their respects.

This is the rule.

Qi Baoer called them to get up, and swept their knees one by one, a little worried that all of them will have to be carried back when they go to visit the New Year today?
