Do you know: I’m Xu Jiazi
Chapter 3 A few things about Ningyuan Hou Mansion
As he spoke, he put an egg on the table into Brother Zhang's mouth.
After breakfast, the two brothers were sent to school, and the two sisters were taken away by their old mother to learn needlework.
After eating and drinking, Xu Zaijing fell asleep in the nurse's arms.
My mother was handling the housework of the Hou Mansion in the room, and Xiao Ju, the personal maid, came to the room:
"Madam, the female gentleman that the Lord asked someone to find has arrived at the house today."
"Okay, let Sister Ping and Sister An come to my place."
Not far away, the two girls quickly came to the room and started teasing their little brother.
Xu Zaijing pretended to sleep in the nurse's arms and did not want to pay attention to the two sisters.
"Madam, the female gentleman is here."
"Please come in, you two, go and sit down!"
Xu Zaijing opened his eyes and saw his two sisters sitting next to Sun uneasily.
Soon a woman in her forties came into the room, followed by a teenage maid.
The clothes of the two of them are not very gorgeous, but they are clean and tidy. Their buns are neatly combed without loose buns, and they are made in a hook-and-loop style, which makes people look very comfortable at a glance.
"Fan has met Mrs. Sun."
"Ms. Fan, you're polite. Please sit down. These two are my daughters."
"Anmei has met sir."
"Pingmei has met sir."
Although they are annoying at home, the two girls are not lacking in courtesy.
Xiaozhu on the side served the hot tea soup to the table where Fan was sitting.
Through the conversation between the two, Xu Zaijing learned that Mrs. Fan was the widow of a Beijing official, and her natal family was from a Qingliu family. Although it was not said that it was a generational hairpin, there were two Jinshi scholars. Madam Fan once borrowed poems and books from the Hai family to study women's genealogy.
After a conversation, the location of the class was decided. Fan had a house in Beijing and would come every morning and leave in the afternoon.
Her two sisters also had teachers, and Sun also started checking their homework every day.
After a few months, the two sisters learned to read and began to copy the copybooks every day.
During this period, the current Yong Yihou, Xu Zaijing's father also went to the northwest to take up his post.
Xu Zaijing’s face hurt from the prick he had made before leaving.
By the time Xu Zaijing heard from his mother that he was about to turn one year old, the two sisters had almost completed their lessons.
On this day, Mrs. Sun started her homework inspection before dinner.
"Ping'er, in "The Female Commandment", what are the four elements of a woman?"
"A woman has four qualities. The first is a woman's virtue, the second is a woman's speech, the third is a woman's appearance, and the fourth is a woman's strength. It is the so-called virtue, appearance, appearance and strength." Xu Pingmei, who was already nine years old, said looking at her mother.
"Okay, your brother's birthday party will be in a few days, so don't be rude in front of the guests."
"Yes, mother."
inner city
Xingguofang
Ningyuan Hou Mansion.
Gu Hou Gu Yankai was in the room of his eldest wife, Bai Shi, holding in his arms a boy with bright eyebrows and strong limbs. This was his second son Gu Tingye.
Not far away, a four-year-old boy on the bed in the room was frowning at the medicine bowl in front of him.
"Mom, Yu'er doesn't want to take the medicine. The medicine is so bitter."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yan looked over with a somewhat stern look. He was about to say a few words, but the child in his arms grabbed his beard.
"Hey, you kid."
After taking a look at her master, Bai touched the little boy's head and said softly:
"Yu'er is a man and cannot be afraid of hardship."
After saying this, he whispered in the little boy's ear: "After drinking the medicine, give it to Yu'er to eat in the south! Don't let your father know."
The little boy's eyes lit up and he smiled sweetly at Bai's dimples.
The Bai family was originally from a wealthy family. She had been a noble person since she was a child. Even after giving birth to a brother, her appearance was still beautiful.
"Hmph, just pamper him."
"Master Marquis, Yu'er is already weak and young. Please stop saying a few words."
At this time, a voice came from outside the door.
"Madam, from the Yongyi Hou family, I sent you a post."
"Mother Chang, bring it in."
A mother in her thirties walked in.
"Master Marquis, Madam."
Gu Yankai on the side hugged Gu Tingye and said curiously: "Why did the Xu family post it?"
"Back to the Marquis, the third son of the Xu family will be celebrating his first birthday in two days. Please invite our eldest lady to come over."
"oh."
After Gu Yankai finished speaking, Mrs. Bai looked at Chang's mother with a smile on her face and said, "Bring it to me and take a look."
"Speaking of which, this is the first post that the eldest lady has received." Chang's mother glanced at Gu Yan and said.
When Gu Yankai heard this, his expression became a little unnatural.
Fortunately, a report came from outside the room: "Master Hou, the uncle of the Qin family has come to the house. Please invite Master Hou over for a drink."
"Okay, let's get over it."
After handing Gu Tingye to Chang's mother, Gu Yankai left the yard.
Chang's mother hugged Gu Tingye, eyes full of love, and handed the post to Bai. However, Bai did not accept it. Instead, she picked up a candied fruit from the table and put it into Gu Tingyu's mouth.
"Yu'er, is your mouth still bitter?"
Gu Tingyu, who was handsome but somewhat sallow, shook his head.
After doing this, Bai took over the post.
"Madam, I asked the old man in the Hou Mansion and heard that Madam Sun from the Yongyi Mansion is still related to the Gu family?"
"Why is the Sun family related to the Hou Mansion?"
"Madam, the ancestral home of our Marquis Mansion is in Qingcheng. Our ancestor Shan Degong died escorting him, leaving behind two sons. The two sons fought bloody battles for more than 20 years. After their meritorious service, they were granted the title of Marquis of Ningyuan and Marquis of Xiangyang.
The Gu family in Qingcheng has also prospered since then. "
"I know this." Bai said
Chang's mother smiled slightly and straightened Gu Tingye's clothes.
"Madam, back then, Duke Shan De had five uncles from the Gu family in Qingcheng, one of whom was a concubine.
This bloodline has been continued, and a girl in the bloodline married into the general Sun's family, and is now a grandmother.
The eldest lady of Yongyi Hou Mansion is this girl's daughter.
People from my hometown in Yangzhou also heard some secrets from outside. They said that the master of the Sun family had saved the third master of the Cao family. Not many people knew this. "
"Oh? There is such a relationship! The Cao family, the Queen Cao family?"
"Yes. The Cao family has deep roots in the Northwest Army and has some purchasing business dealings with our family."
"Most of the people in Bianjing are the family members of noble officials, and they look down on me as a businessman, but the Yongyi Marquis Mansion is not afraid of this."
Chang's mother wiped Gu Tingye's saliva from her face and said with a smile: "In this Xu family, the eldest lady Xu doesn't know that the current Yongyi Hou's father is an adopted daughter. Yongyi Hou's grandfather only has one daughter, who is married to Ji Yingxiang. The beauty hunter from the Sheng family."
Coaxing Gu Tingye in her arms, Chang's mother continued:
"I heard that a brother of the Sheng family won the imperial examination a few years ago. Now the mother of Marquis Yongyi wanted to marry a concubine from Daizhou's hometown, but the mistress of the Sheng family, the only daughter of Marquis Yongyi, refused. It made a big fuss. Not pretty.
I heard from the old people that most of the elite of Yongyihou Mansion were married off, and now they are about to decline. "
Bai thought for a while,
"It doesn't matter, let's go there that day. Some relationships are not obtained out of thin air, but need to be managed. Many of dad's big merchants in Yangzhou also started from humble beginnings."
"Yes, Madam, then I will prepare some gifts."
"Be prepared carefully and carefully. I want the nobles in Bianjing to think of me even for gifts."
