There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 773

[Chapter 773, Receiving gifts]

emperor who received the gift did not want to endure the Jiang family anymore, which disturbed the minds of many officials in the court. The party headed by the Jiang family has also become undercurrent.

Originally, Jiang Jinghui wanted to accept the Xiliao mission and make meritorious deeds, and resume his mission, but officials from other parties participated in a book because the western suburbs posthouse lost the horses brought by the Xiliao people.

This time, Jiang Jinghui could only be forced to leave his post and stay at home.

The first day of August, Daohua’s birthday.

This is Daohua’s last birthday at home. Mrs. Li wanted to make a big deal, but thinking that Jiang Wanying got married two days ago, she didn’t want to stimulate the nerves of the Queen Mother and the Jiang family at this time, lest they do more crazy things Come, just prepare the family to gather together.

“Mother.” The

day before Daohua’s birthday, Han Xinran came to Mrs. Li with a post from the Han family.

Mrs. Li has been very busy during this period. Wen Tao is going to get married next month, Wen Kai is going to get married next month, and her daughter is going to get married again in December. She is very busy almost every day.

“What’s the matter?”

Mrs. Li looked at the gift list without raising her head.

Han Xinran: “Mother, isn’t it my eldest sister’s birthday tomorrow? My natal sister wants to come over to celebrate her birthday, so she handed over a post. Do you want to accept it?”

Mrs. Li looked away from the gift list and looked up The eldest daughter-in-law, thought in her heart, this eldest daughter-in-law finally stopped making her own decisions: “We are all relatives. Since your natal family has a heart, why don’t our family accept it?” The

daughter was born in her natal family for the last time, so let her get in touch with her natal family. The relatives around are also good, so as not to be born in the future.

Han Xinran saw the satisfied look on Mrs. Li’s face, and felt a little relieved, and finally understood how to deal with her mother-in-law in the future: “Then, daughter-in-law, go and reply.”

After coming out of the main courtyard, Han Xinran Walking slowly on the road, looking at the courtyards of the two new houses that are being arranged in a hurry, I feel a little heavy.

In the past, she was the only daughter-in-law in the family, and she didn’t feel much. Now that the third and fourth siblings are coming in one after another, she gradually feels a little stressed.

Especially the fourth younger brother and sister, whose family background and character are not inferior to her, and they are also the daughter-in-law of the big house. In the future, the two of them will inevitably be compared.

The fourth younger siblings and the elder sister have a good relationship, and they were raised by the elders of Yan’s parents. Naturally, they are more favored by the elders in the family than her. In addition, when she returned to Beijing this time, she failed to grasp the proper way to get along with her mother’s family, which angered her mother-in-law Unhappy, this gave her a great sense of crisis.

She grew up in the uncle’s house, and she knows too well that living under one roof, conflicts and frictions are unavoidable, and whoever the elder’s heart is for can live a more comfortable life.

Looking away, Han Xinran first returned to his yard to reply to the post, and then went to the kitchen in person to check whether all the ingredients needed for tomorrow were purchased.

In the early morning of the first day of August, Han Xinman brought the Han sisters and two girls from the Fang family to Yan’s house.

When Han Xinran came to pick him up, he saw his elder sister and saw her bring the Fang family sisters over, and frowned slightly: “Elder sister, why didn’t you tell me in advance if you were coming?”

Han Xinman said affectionately Taking Han Xinran’s arm, he asked with a smile, “You don’t welcome me?”

Han Xinran looked at her, “If I take the girl from the Yan family and go to Yongqingbo’s mansion without telling you, Are you welcome?”

Han Xinman froze for a moment, then looked at her second sister in surprise, now that she has a husband’s family, her second sister is much tougher than when she was at home.

“Okay, okay, it’s the elder sister’s fault. I blamed me for being lazy. I thought that my family had already delivered the post, and the time was too late, so I didn’t say hello to you. Are you really angry with your elder sister?”

Han Xinran fell silent. “Big sister, my younger sisters don’t understand, but you and I are both daughters-in-law. It’s okay for us to be casual at home, but when we get to our respective in-laws’ homes, we should abide by the etiquette. What do you think?”

Han Xinran chased after her. , made Han Xinman feel very unhappy, is it a little thing?

Nowadays, anyone in Beijing who is well-informed doesn’t know that the Yan family has offended the Jiang family, and they really don’t know what is so interesting about her as the second sister.

This time, if her father-in-law hadn’t spoken in person, she wouldn’t have bothered to bring the two younger sisters from Bo’s house to Yan’s house.

“My dear second sister, this time the elder sister was not thoughtful, so please forgive me this time, okay? This is the first time I have entered the door of your in-law’s house, and you still have to stop me from entering.” No?”

Han Xinran glanced at his elder sister, who always liked the elders when she was at home, sometimes it was her fault, but after she said it, it seemed that someone else was wrong.

The people had already arrived. Although Han Xinran felt very uncomfortable, she still led the Han family sisters and Fang family sisters to the yard of Mrs. Yan.

Before the Han sisters came, Yan Siyu had brought Yang Xiuyun and the Yang sisters over, and now, she was joking with Mrs. Yan, Mrs. Li, Mrs. Wu, and the four Daohua sisters.

Seeing Han Xinman, Mrs. Yan and Mrs. Li were both surprised. Thinking of the behavior of the Han family, the smiles on their faces faded a little.

In fact, in some small things that we get along with each other in daily life, we can see the attitude of others towards us.

Han Xinman brought the girl from the Fang family over without even saying hello, so she didn’t take the Yan family seriously.

If she is allowed to treat other powerful families like this, she probably won’t and dare not.

Han Xinran could see the displeasure of the old lady and her mother-in-law at a glance, and felt bitter, so she had to go forward to explain.

Daohua sat aside and saw this scene in her eyes, didn’t say much, just looked at Yang Xiuyun with a smile: “I heard that cousin Xiuyun is engaged to the third son of Shaoqing’s family in Taichang Temple?”

Yang Xiuyun nodded shyly.

Daohua immediately smiled and looked at Yan Yihuan: “That’s such a coincidence, Yihuan has also made a decision, you two can get together to discuss how to embroider the wedding dress.”

Yang Xiuyun immediately looked at Yan Yihuan: “Really? Cousin Yihuan Which family is it for?”

Yan Yihuan looked a little shy, not ashamed to speak.

Daohua smiled and said: “He is the eldest son of the household member Wailangyou’s family. He has just reached the crown and is already a juren.”

Yang Xiuyun immediately smiled and congratulated Yan Yihuan. The white body of Yi Huan’s cousin.

“Do the second uncle and the second aunt know?”

Daohua nodded: “Of course I have to tell the second uncle and the second aunt about Yihuan’s marriage. After looking at You’s family, we can make a decision.”

Yang Xiuyun looked at Yan Yihuan with a smile: “The family that my uncle and my aunt are looking for must be good.” She can be engaged to the youngest son of the Shaoqing family in Zhengsipin Taichang Temple, It is also the honor of the Yan family.

The eldest uncle is the servant of the household department, the eldest cousin is Hanlin, the third and fourth cousins are Jin Lingwei, and the cousin Yiyi in front of her is about to marry into the royal family. If his family had not such a relationship with the Yan family, she It is impossible to get such a good marriage.

The last time we were in Zhongzhou, because of my grandmother’s preference, we lived together again. Her relationship with a few cousins was very ordinary, but now we are all related as relatives, and there is no conflict of interest. Those who are not far or close have a better relationship. up.

Every time she comes to Yan Mansion, her cousins are very welcome.

Yan Yihuan nodded, with a grateful expression on her face: “I know, uncle and aunt have worried a lot about my affairs.”

“What are you talking about?”

Han Xinran led the sisters of the Han family and the Fang family away with a smile. come over.

Daohua smiled and said, “I’m talking about the hot weather today.”

Yan Yihuan and Yang Xiuyun nodded quickly.

Han Xinran looked at Daohua: “Big sister, please welcome me, I’ll go to the kitchen.”

Daohua smiled and nodded, “Thank you, sister.”

Han Xinran shook her head with a smile, turned and left.

The third girl of the Han family smiled and said: “Is it hot? I don’t think so. I just passed by the flower gallery in the yard. I think it’s very cool there.” She said, looking at Daohua.

“Sister Yan, why don’t we sit and talk over there. We can enjoy the cool air and enjoy the flowers. We can kill two birds with one stone.”

Daohua glanced at the third girl of the Han family, picked up her teacup and acted as if she didn’t hear what she said.

As a guest, the most basic guest doesn’t even know that the host doesn’t know it. It’s not without reason that the Han family’s uncle’s house can quickly fall down with such demands.

Seeing Daohua not showing face like this, the third girl of the Han family felt a little embarrassed, while the sisters of the Fang family were slightly astonished.

It is really rare to see such a host who does not give face to the guests.

Yan Yihuan didn’t want the atmosphere to be too awkward, so she broke the conversation with a smile.

Daohua didn’t hold on to her either, but in the subsequent chats, she intentionally or unintentionally ignored the Han sisters.

After a few contacts, she has figured out the temperament of the Han sisters. Because she is a girl from the Earl’s Mansion, she is a bit condescending and likes to be arrogant. If you want to give them a good face, you will only indulge them. more and more.

When it was almost noon, Ping Tong walked into the room with a smile on his face. After saluting to Mrs. Yan and others, he said with a smile: “Old lady, madam, Prince Ping’s mansion has brought a birthday gift to the eldest girl.”

Li Madam hurriedly said: “Invite people in quickly.”

The person who came this time was Wynn. Wynn greeted Mrs. Yan and Mrs. Li first, and then saluted Daohua, and put a half-meter-long golden The Sinan wooden box was handed to her: “My servant wishes the county magistrate a long life and eternal life.”

Daohua took the box with a smile: “What is this?” As he spoke, he opened the box, and immediately, a handle The light green Yu Ruyi caught everyone’s eyes.

“My lord hopes that the county lord will always be happy!” Wynn said at the right time.

The smile on Daohua’s face became even wider. Although most of the reason why Prince Ping gave her such a valuable gift was to make up for the previous guilt, she was still very happy.

“Thank you to the lord for me. I like this gift very much.”

“The lord of the county likes it. The lord must be very happy. The slave will go back to the house and answer.”

Wynn saluted the old lady Yan and Mrs. Li again, and then Bishi sent it out.

Prince Ping personally sent someone over to give gifts, so that no one present expected.

After Wynn left, Mrs. Yan and Mrs. Li looked happy. The more satisfied Prince Ping was with his granddaughter (daughter), the better his granddaughter (daughter) would live in the future.

As for the others, their expressions moved slightly, thinking that the rumors were really unbelievable. In the past, everyone said that Prince Ping did not want Yan Yiyi to be his daughter-in-law, but looking at today’s situation, Prince Ping was obviously very satisfied with this marriage.

“Sister Yan, the prince really values you. This jade ruyi is transparent in texture and bright in color. It is not ordinary at first glance. If you marry into the palace in the future, my sister will enjoy the blessings.”

Han Xinman smiled and complimented her. Now I understand the meaning of father-in-law. With the backing of Prince Ping’s mansion, even if the Yan family offends the Jiang family, it will not be a big deal, and it is worth friendship.

Dao Hua smiled and didn’t answer, just handed Yu Ruyi to Gu Yu, ready to let her take it back to the yard and put it away, when Ping Tong walked in again.

“Old lady, madam, Dingguo Mansion sent someone here.”

Hearing this, everyone was taken aback.

Prince Ping’s mansion sent people, although everyone was surprised, but it was not too much.

But the Dingguo Mansion sent people here, and everyone was really surprised.

Mrs. Li glanced at Daohua: “Please come in quickly.”

Soon, Mei Xue who was beside Guo Ruomei walked in.

“It’s you!”

Daohua looked at Mei Xue in surprise, she knew this person, she was Xiao Yeyang’s mother’s personal maid.

Mei Xue saluted Daohua with a smile: “I have seen the county master.” Then she saluted Old Madam Yan and Mrs. Li, and then looked at Daohua again.

“Today is the county lord’s birthday, Madam can’t come here in person, so I specially ordered my servants to bring some jewelry for the county lord to enjoy.”

As he spoke, he smiled and asked the four maids behind him to hand over the jewelry box in their hands.

Daohua looked at the jewelry box in the maid’s hand, and smiled: “Madam is really kind, thank you for me.”

Hearing Daohua’s answer, Mei Xue narrowed her eyes with a smile: “The county lord likes it. That’s fine.”

Dao Hua asked Gu Yu to put away the jewelry box, exchanged a few words with Mei Xue, and Mei Xue left.

“Sister Yan, let’s see what gifts Dingguo Mansion gave you?” Miss Han San couldn’t help but said.

Daohua was also quite curious, so she asked Gu Yu to open the box.

A box of gemstones of various colors, a box of thumb-sized South China Sea pearls, a set of Diancui head noodles, and a set of Fengchai head noodles.

Well, it’s practical, and it’s luxurious.

Daohua thought to herself, Xiao Yeyang’s parents are more proud than the other.

“Put the things away for your girl.”

Seeing the envy in everyone’s eyes, Mrs. Li ordered Gu Yu to put away the things.

Gu Yu nodded, and Lixia quickly took the box and left.

“Duke Dingguo’s Mansion also values Sister Yan very much.” Han Xinman smiled again, but the smile on her face was a little stiff.

Coming to Yan Mansion this time was really beyond her expectation.

Both Prince Ping’s Mansion and Duke Dingguo’s Mansion valued Yan Yiyi so much, and the birthday gifts they gave her were all good things that were rarely seen by her.

Han Xinman took a look at Han Xinran who was serving Mrs. Li. This second sister is really lucky. Looking at the current situation of the Yan family, it is as her mother said, and it is more nourishing than her life in Yongqingbo Mansion.

Xiao Yeyang arrived with Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai around noon, followed by the three of them, and Wu Dingbai.

While Yan Wenkai was introducing Wu Dingbai to everyone, Dao Hua walked up to Xiao Yeyang: “Why is he here? Our family is not at odds with the Jiang family now, and the Wu family is not far away from us.”

Xiao Yeyang said with a low smile : “Wu Dudu is shrewd. He is an old fox. He wants his son to befriend your two elder brothers. Naturally, he can see that Uncle Huang doesn’t want to tolerate the Jiang family anymore.”

Daohua laughed and said, “The emperor is right this time. The Jiang family is very rude.”

Xiao Yeyang smiled: “Let’s talk outside the house.”

Daohua nodded, and went out of the house with Xiao Yeyang, standing under the flower shed in the yard and talking.

Xiao Yeyang: “The emperor’s succession to the throne was indeed due to the favor of the Jiang family. He tolerated the Jiang family before because he didn’t want to have the reputation of repaying his kindness.

” The empress dowager personally ended the scandal, which is considered to have passed the knife to the emperor.”

“Using this opportunity, the emperor expressed his dissatisfaction with the Jiang family. The Empress Dowager and the Jiang family have gone too far.”

“There are many officials in the court who hate the people of Xiliao. The empress dowager colluded with the people of Xiliao, which really stirred up the nerves of many people. Wait, I lost the emperor’s uncle.” Maintenance, but there are many noble families waiting to take a bite of the Jiang family’s fat.”

Knowing that the Jiang family is going to be unlucky, Dao Hua is relieved.

“I heard that you collected a lot of good things today?” Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua with a smile.

Dao Hua stretched out her hand in front of Xiao Yeyang: “Where is my birthday gift?”

Xiao Yeyang grabbed the jade hand, lowered his head and gently pecked at the palm of his hand: “How about giving me to you?”

Dao Hua quickly withdrew her hand , looked left and right, saw no one around, then stared at Xiao Yeyang.
