Chapter 165 Da Lang's Marriage

The Shao family, Lin Qingran read the letter sent from thousands of miles away. This time, both parents have gone to the border. Two years have passed, and a few months have passed through a city. It is a leisurely pace. Give it a swim.

Si Qin handed over the brochure, and Lin Qingran flipped through it, pointing to a section of cloth and said, "It would be nice to use this as a curtain in the new house." At the beginning of the year, Brother Han got engaged, and Lin Qingran was choosing the next one. The hired thing, this marriage was brought up by Shao Ziyu and her, Lin Qingran met the youngest daughter of Mrs. Chen's family who co-organized the university a few times, and asked her son's meaning. This Miss Chen is a very gentle woman. , my brother Han is also mild-tempered, and when we get married in the future, he will be able to get along with each other beautifully.

"The cloth sent over can be taken from the new ones in the cloth shop." Lin Qingran looked at the employment list, her son of Shao's eldest son got married, no matter what, it would be a good thing.

"Miss, you have seen it several times." Siqi smiled and said, "You have changed the candlesticks in the young master's room twice."

"It's not so easy to marry a daughter-in-law. If you get married and come in, the family will send the daughter to someone else's house. If the husband's family still treats her badly, won't the mother's family feel sorry for her?" A good marriage, a good marriage is not only about family background, but also meeting a good husband, a good father-in-law and a good mother-in-law, who care about each other. Now that her son is getting married, why should she make things difficult for other people's daughters.

"Then Mrs. Shao is lucky to have a mother-in-law like you." Si Qi smiled and complimented her, but Lin Qingran gave her a sharp look and scolded, "You're the only one who talks poorly."

The wedding date is scheduled for next May, and it is now May. In one year, the courtyard where Da Lang lives needs to be repaired, and the whole house also needs to be repaired. Lin Qingran suddenly found out after walking around that this It seems that the house is not old enough to wait for the children to get married.

Lin Qingran couldn't help but do what he said, so when Shao Ziyu came back at night, he mentioned to him that he wanted to build another mansion, "In the future, when Erlang gets married and the child is born again, this mansion will look crowded."

"Is it too late to buy a new house?" Shao Ziyu looked through the betrothal gift she planned for Dalang to be hired by the Chen family, which was much more than when he married her back then.

"Do you think it's okay? I'll watch it first. I can see it in the past few months. If it is repaired in time, then I will move there before Dalang gets married. If I don't like it, I will postpone it for another two years." Lin Qingran thought about it. I thought, if I took a fancy to it early, there would still be time.

"Then I'll ask them to help take a look." Shao Ziyu stretched his arms around her waist, his brows moved slightly, as if he was getting fatter, and his heart moved, Zhang hand gently squeezed her waist, Lin Qing Ran felt itchy, slapped his hand away and glared at him, "What are you doing!"

Shao Ziyu squeezed again, Lin Qingran became annoyed, and called him by his name, "Shao Ziyu, do you think I'm fat now?"

Shao Ziyu's hand moved up several inches, "It's better to be fatter, it feels good in the hand."

Lin Qingran was ashamed and angry, and pushed him, "You're the one who got fat!"

She is getting fat in her middle age. She has three children, and the eldest son is already seventeen. Seeing that she is in her thirties, some parts of Lin Qingran's body show irresistible development. Trend, began to grow fat.

It's okay if he doesn't mention it, but when Lin Qingran mentions it, she doesn't like it. She is fat, but he doesn't look fat at all. He feels unbalanced and very unhappy.

Seeing that she was about to get up, Shao Ziyu stretched out his hand to hold her, and coaxed, "I didn't say it's bad to be fat, this..." Lin Qingran immediately covered his mouth to prevent him from saying a word, she could have expected it What is the half sentence, the heart is wide and the body is fat, this is the only way to live a comfortable life.

Seeing his wife glaring at him angrily, Shao Ziyu changed the subject wisely, "Have you received a letter from your father-in-law or mother-in-law?"

"Father doesn't plan to come back this time. I think it will be two years. As long as father and mother are in good health, it's okay to go for a few more years." Lin Qingran reached out and pinched his waist hard, looking He gritted his teeth before letting go, "Father said, he has already retired, and the affairs of the court have nothing to do with him, and it doesn't matter if the dynasty changes." The life of eating bran and wild vegetables will not worry about the hearts of the whole banquet.

"If the dynasty really changed." Shao Ziyu looked at her half-jokingly, Lin Qingran didn't believe it at first, then looked back at him, staring at him for a long time, "I can't." Although the current emperor is autocratic, he says what he says, and he decides things by himself I just did this, but I didn't do anything too stupid after all. Throughout the ages, if it really comes to the step of changing dynasties, it will be chaotic.

"Maybe it's because of the chaos that we need to change the dynasty." Shao Ziyu was selling Guanzi in the gourd, Lin Qingran gave him a hammer, and deliberately threatened with a straight face, "Hurry up!"

Shao Ziyu coughed lightly, "The Holy Majesty's health is not very good, I didn't go to court a few days ago, I'm afraid it's not very pleasant."

"That's because you guys are overthinking." It's impossible to be sick at such a young age.

Shao Ziyu leaned close to her ear and whispered a few words, Lin Qingran's face gradually turned red, and then she looked at Shao Ziyu in disbelief, "Is it true?"

"Guess." Shao Ziyu smiled, and when Lin Qingran came back to her senses, she realized that he was deceiving herself, and was even more annoyed, "You don't want to sleep here tonight."

It was only a few days later that Lin Qingran went to the palace to see the imperial concubine, only to realize that the joking guesses her husband had made to her a few days ago were not entirely groundless.

Seeing the emperor who came to pay his respects in the Empress Dowager's Shoukang Palace, the emperor's expression was indeed a bit haggard, but Lin Qingran still felt strange to think about that aspect abruptly.

On the way from Shoukang Palace to Yihe Palace, you can still see some pavilions and pavilions built on the side of the palace. When Lin Qingran came over half a year ago, only the top corners of the pavilions were exposed. Looking at it now, the pavilion It is as much as one floor higher. Looking from a distance, the uppermost floor seems to be surrounded by veils. When the wind blows, it floats very beautifully.

The palace guard who led her saw her watching, and explained to her that this is the Heze Terrace that has just been built a few months ago, and there are a few lower ones underneath that can't be seen clearly, and a lotus pond has been opened up. These pavilions are built on the lotus pond, very beautiful.

Lin Qingran was curious, "What is the purpose of this pavilion?"

The palace servant who led her back was from Concubine Yihe's side, and she was familiar with Lin Qingran. She lowered her voice and said, "This is the dance stage for Rong Shuyi, and the one next to it is Rong Shuyi's." Chaohua Palace." This has already been said clearly enough, the concubine's stage is specially danced for the emperor to watch.

"Rong Shuyi is really a favor." Lin Qingran said with a light smile. The palace man nodded, which was very agreeable. In this palace, as much as a woman in the harem wants to kill a woman, then how much is this concubine? Be favored by the emperor.

After arriving at the Yihe Palace, the health of the imperial concubine has not been very good in the past two years. Lin Qingran frequently entered the palace, and occasionally brought her children in to chat with her.

The relationship between the Concubine Gui and the Empress Dowager has always been very good, and it got even better after the death of the first emperor. There is a sense of sisters in distress in it. Every time I talk about it, the Concubine Gui does not shy away from it, that is, whoever goes first will follow The problem.

"In a blink of an eye, Han'er is going to get married." The Concubine Gui remembered the first time she saw this child, he looked chubby and very simple, and now it has been 12 years.

"Your Majesty also said that Princess Yuanxun has two children." Of the two children raised under her knees, one is married, the other was engaged at the end of last year, and they also moved out of the palace.

"That's why we are the only ones who can't live without this palace." The imperial concubine sighed, Lin Qingran could understand how lonely it was, and only those in the palace could experience that feeling.

"Your Majesty can actually go out of the palace. Talk to the Holy Majesty, and the Majesty will agree to your Majesty's return to the Zhang family." He has resigned, but the Zhang family is not without people in the court, and whether he can leave or not will have no effect on the emperor. If it is brought up, he will definitely buy this face.

"What do you say?" The Concubine Gui shook her head, "The Ai family is used to it, and they don't bother those little ones anymore." Most importantly, she didn't want to bother the emperor.

Although the Concubine Gui is indifferent by nature, such a life in the palace inevitably makes people feel sad. Lin Qingran accompanied her and talked for a long time, and did not leave the Palace of Harmony until the Concubine was tired and went to take a nap .

On the way out of the palace, I don't know if it was Lin Qingran's luck that she bumped into two concubines who were coming towards this road. Lin Qingran sideways avoided and bowed.

Without raising her head, she only heard the silver bell-like laughter in her ears, accompanied by a fresh scent of flowers passing in front of her, as if two people were having a cheerful conversation, Lin Qingran heard sister Rong, who had already passed away.

The palace servant beside her reminded her that Lin Qingran just looked up, only to see the back of the man in the distance, wearing palace attire, like a colorful butterfly fluttering in the air, fluttering its wings

One month later, in mid-June, the Shao family was going to hire the Chen family, and Shao Jingbo sent the betrothal gift to his brother, starting from the Shao family and going to the Chen family in the south of the city.

It was already a hot day, and the brightly red recruiting team looked particularly eye-catching under the sun. There was a band in front of Chuichuidada, and the picture was lively, for fear that others would not know who was going to hire someone.

The eldest son of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Punishment is about to get married, and he is marrying the youngest daughter of Mr. Chen, the co-organizer of the university. No matter how you look at it, the two families are well-connected. There are many people on the street, what are you doing?Help count how many dowry gifts there are, no matter whether you have seen these two children or not, they all sound like familiar relatives, even boasting about their talents and looks, they are a good match.

It took more than an hour to go this way, and it was almost noon when we arrived at Chen's house. The door of Chen's house was open to welcome them. Master Chen and Mrs. Chen were also shocked when they saw it. The Shao family's move was too generous.

Mrs. Chen read the betrothal gift list, turned her back and discussed with Mr. Chen about adding a dowry to the youngest daughter. The husband's family gave such a generous betrothal gift, and getting married would not be a good thing.

Near noon, the Chen family also set up a banquet. They wanted to treat the porters who were brought here to eat and drink well, and it was even better to treat the uncle of the future in-laws to eat and drink well. afternoon
