Eldest daughter

Chapter 360 Making a Deal
Turning the Chinese New Year, it was the third year of Jingsheng. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Wang Yuaner was bowed down by the family servants, handed everyone the rewards he had prepared long ago, and received New Year greetings from his younger siblings, so he went with them Happy New Year at the old house.

As in previous years, the siblings all dressed up for New Year's greetings, received red envelopes, and the younger one went out to play. Wang Qing'er was engaged, and it was not convenient for her to wander around, so she had to talk to her grandma with her elder sister. .

"Why don't you see Second Aunt?" Wang Yuan'er looked around, but couldn't help being a little surprised that she didn't see Mrs. Zhang.

As soon as she asked, Mrs. Wang's expression turned a little ugly.

Wang Er was a little embarrassed, and said in embarrassment: "Your second aunt had a stomachache all night last night, and she can't get up today, she is resting!"

Wang Yuaner was taken aback.

But Wang Qing'er gave a chuckle, quickly covered her mouth, coughed lightly, and asked pretending to be concerned: "Why did you have a stomachache? Second uncle, maybe second aunt ate too much yesterday? I said, The way she eats, there is no way she will have a stomachache."

There was concern in her words, but there was a smile in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised, obviously gloating.

"When she came back last night, she even ate two plates of snacks." Wang Pozi complained with a dark face: "On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I still have to take medicine. It's not bad luck."

Wang Yuan'er said a few words of relief, but she also felt speechless in her heart. She also saw how her second aunt was eating yesterday, and she looked like she was afraid that she would lose money if she didn't eat.

The so-called said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived, and Mrs. Zhang walked in from the outside.

"Oh, Second Aunt, Happy Chinese New Year. I heard that you have a stomachache, so why don't you stop and wake up!" Wang Qing'er walked over and supported her arm.

Wang Yuan'er also got up, gave Yingying a salute, carefully looked at the second aunt's face, she was pale, and there was no blood on her mouth, it can be seen that she really spent the whole night last night.

"Second Aunt looks better? Have you asked the doctor to see it?" Wang Yuan'er asked.

Before Mrs. Zhang could answer, Mrs. Wang said: "On the first day of the Lunar New Year, please ask a doctor to grab two handfuls of plant ash and mix it with water and drink it. Who told you to be greedy, you look like a hungry..." Thinking of the first day One, she didn't say that unlucky word after all.

Zhang's heart was full of displeasure when he heard it, and he was half dead with diarrhea, and the old woman even made sarcastic remarks.

"That's not the case. The second aunt is still pregnant. I don't care about the big ones, but I also care about the small ones. If it's really wrong, it's safe to take two medicines." Wang Yuan'er smiled slightly.

"It's still the big girl who loves my second aunt." Zhang's heart warmed slightly, and a smile appeared on his pale face.

"Second Aunt, I think you got tired of eating yesterday and your stomach started to grow. During these days of Chinese New Year, you can eat porridge to nourish your stomach. Don't be greedy, or you will suffer!" Wang Qing'er giggled Said.

Zhang Shiba smacked his mouth and said: "How could it be possible? I'm a poor man who is so poor that I can't bear to have delicious intestines. If I don't rave about it every day like you, how can I be like this?"

Wang Yuan'er glanced at her, let go of her hand, and didn't answer.

Wang Qing'er was not the case, and said with a smile: "Look at what Second Aunt said, when it comes to eating good food, Second Aunt eats more than us. In the past ten years or so, you and Sister Min'er have eaten a lot of good food. Everyone is very greedy, and I didn't see you having a stomachache at that time, so it can be seen that this is not going to happen."

Her words were stinging, and made everyone except Wang Yuan'er look bad. Doesn't this mean that they are biased?

Wang Yuan'er coughed, changed the topic, and talked about the regular banquet of his family in the first eight years.

After sitting for a short time, she said goodbye to Wang Qing'er, but she never thought that it was snowing again that day.

The two sisters walked down the street wearing brand-new dresses, holding an umbrella together, and walking home while talking. In the eyes of others, they became a beautiful scenery.

"Eldest sister, I think Second Uncle and the others have not given up. I have asked Master Cui several times, do you really want to ask Master to find a job for Zhang Luo?" Wang Qing'er asked, holding Wang Yuan'er's arm.

Wang Yuan'er held the umbrella firmly, and said, "When I'm thinking about it, how can it be so easy to stop?"

"That's true." Wang Qing'er nodded, and said: "Looking at it this way, it's better for Mr. Cui not to appear in front of Second Uncle and the others for the time being, so as to save trouble."

The corner of Wang Yuan'er's mouth twitched, looking at the goose feather snow outside the umbrella, this year's New Year's Day, I don't know what happened to that person?
How about Cui Yuan?At this time, Emperor Jing is grinding!
In the warm pavilion of the Zhonghe Hall, ambergris was burning, a kang bed was placed by the window, a kang table was placed on it, and a chess board was placed on it. Bai Zi.

"Kill." The man in bright yellow casual clothes and the golden crown of Kowloon landed a sunspot on a position on the chessboard.

Sitting opposite him was a man wearing a royal blue robe and a jade crown. Looking at the scattered pieces on the chessboard, his white pieces had no room to maneuver.

Lost again!
The man lost interest, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he threw the white piece in his hand into the crystal clear white jade chess cup beside him, and said angrily, "I won't play anymore!"

Chess, he never beat this person.

"Cui Qing's family, you have a lot on your mind!" Emperor Jing's mouth hooked up, compared to Cui Yuan's irritability, he seemed calm and unhurried, he slowly arranged black and white pieces again.

Seeing this, Cui Yuan felt even more depressed, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, your concubines are like a cloud, how do you know the pain of being alone and sleepless?"

Chief Eunuch Liu, who was holding a fly whisk in his hand and looking at his heart, heard this and cast a glance at Cui Yuan.

There are many courtiers today, probably only this one, the emperor is not the emperor, and there is only this one, so let's talk so casually in front of the emperor!

Hearing Cui Yuan's slightly resentful words, Emperor Jing's usually cold face had a crack, and the corner of his mouth lightly raised, and said: "It turns out that Cui Qing's family is moved by spring. It's strange, Liu Ren, isn't it the severe winter now? Is it far away?"

Manager Liu, known as Liu Ren, bent over busy, and said in a shrill voice: "Return to the emperor, spring will only begin on January 29 this year, and there are still some days."

The corner of Cui Yuan's mouth twitched.

Emperor Jing pressed his fist to his lips, hiding the smile on his lips, and said: "If Cui Qing's family finds it difficult to sleep in winter, how many beauties will I reward you?"
Cui Yuan's face darkened.

Emperor Jing laughed uncontrollably when he saw it.

"Your Majesty, only by caring for the physical and mental health of your subjects can you serve the Emperor with all your heart!" Cui Yuan said the word "do your best" very emphatically, as if it came out of his teeth.

"Actually, I also think that the young ladies that Lord Cui has taken a fancy to are pretty good, and they are a good match for the Cui family, so you might as well follow the elders' wishes." Emperor Jing still practiced Tai Chi.

"Your Majesty!" Cui Yuan's voice was very loud, he squeezed his fists with great difficulty, and said, "Your Majesty knows that this minister's ambition is not here."

Emperor Jing squinted at him.

Cui Yuan got down from the kang and knelt in front of him: "Please the emperor reward me with a decree to marry me to the queen, the righteous queen of the second wife of the Song family in the south of the Yangtze River."

Emperor Jing didn't make a sound, didn't cry out, Cui Yuan just knelt like this.

The ground dragon was burning in the Nuan Pavilion, so he knelt, not seeing any sound from the person above his head for a long time, and he couldn't help sweating from his forehead.

"Get up!" Emperor Jing said.

"If the emperor doesn't agree, the humble minister will not be able to afford it."

Director Liu glanced at Cui Yuan again, and took a breath in his heart, dare to say that Master Cui is going to be proud of his favor, is this a threat?

Sure enough, Emperor Jing laughed again, and kicked him lightly: "Where did you learn how to behave like a woman, and you also learned the ability to cry, make trouble, and hang yourself?"

Cui Yuan was not annoyed, he said: "Your Majesty, this humble minister will be 21 this year, and the emperor has princes and princesses, so why don't you just have the heart to let this humble minister be alone?"

"Okay, don't talk about what you have and what you don't have, and get up and talk." Emperor Jing scolded with a smile: "If you continue, you will say that I won't let you get married!"

I, not Zhen, shortened the distance between the monarch and his subjects to an extremely short amount of time.

Cui Yuan was in a daze, as if the days when he fought with him on the battlefield many years ago were just around the corner, eating wine in big bowls and eating meat in big pieces.

"Wang Yuaner, is that what you like?" Emperor Jing looked at him and asked, "You have to know that no matter how many layers of gold you gild her, it can't change her origin. You are the heir of the Cui family."

Just a few words revealed a lot of information, Cui Yuan's heart shuddered, he put away the past friendship, clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, what is your background, I don't care about her, I just want her. To put it bluntly, he is just a bastard."

Emperor Jing frowned.

The person in front of him has been with him since he was a child, he has a cute baby face, and he talks funny, but in fact, how many things are hidden in his heart?

He was the unpopular prince at that time, and Cui Yuan was the unpopular bastard in the family, probably because of their sympathy for each other, so the friendship came from that.

"You are recorded under the name of your aunt, you don't have to..."

"Your Majesty, no matter what, the thorn will always be there." Cui Yuan interrupted him, and said: "I have no other ideas, I just want to get what I want, and besides, spring is here, and my elder brother is going to get married."
As soon as Emperor Jing pursed his lips, the mistress of the Cui family begged for the eldest son to marry the daughter of Li Langzhong's family, and they got married in March. He was clear about this.

"Wang's family background is not high, and he won't help you much in your official career. You should choose a wife who can help you." Emperor Jing rarely confessed his heart.

Cui Yuan's heart warmed slightly, but he still said: "Your Majesty, I don't intend to be in the officialdom, and I don't care what my official career is like."

"Presumptuous, a man is supposed to offer advice for the country." Emperor Jing interrupted him with a dark face.

"Yes." Cui Yuan clasped his hands together.

"The treasury, Youxu, I heard that Wan Deying, the number one salt merchant in Yunzhou, is as rich as a country. If you ask me for some flowers, I will give you a marriage." Emperor Jing snorted.

Cui Yuan's forehead went black: "The Wu family in Jizhou was dug up just before, this..."

"Ok?"

"I obey the decree." Seeing his eyes narrowed, Cui Yuan could only kneel down, gnashing his teeth, this is the emperor, not a robber!
Seeing this, Emperor Jing said, "Don't tell me, when will you send four tenths of Wan Deying's family wealth, and when will this decree be announced." He waved his hand as he said.

Director Liu immediately took out a roll of bright yellow cloth from his sleeve and spread it in front of Cui Yuan.

Cui Yuan's eyes lit up, and he subconsciously went to grab it, but he heard a cough, so he could only say loudly: "I will do my best to share the emperor's worries." This is considered to be a deal with Emperor Jing.
