Fragrance Returned

Dongyang talked about how she sent someone to Guangjing Temple to teach Gao Lihua a lesson.

When she talked about Gao Lihua, her eyes were full of hatred, "I just slapped a dozen people on the lips and then my sister-in-law pulled her away, otherwise she would have her appearance broken. It's so abominable..."

Xun Xiang didn't dare to say farewell to Shen Ying. She only said that Shen Ying led Shen Ru to take away the bones of the Shen family and transport them to the mountains for burial.

Thinking of a cute little girl and a six-year-old boy doing such a cruel thing, Dongyang could not bear it in his eyes.

She squeezed Xunxiang's hand and said, "Fortunately, mother is right, otherwise you and your brother would be pitiful."

Dongyang heard that Sun Yumu was accompanying him, so he called him in to say a few words.

Xunxiang ate her vegetarian meal here, checked what was missing, and agreed to bring it when she came over next time.

Xunxiang left at the end of the day.

Before leaving, Dongyang couldn't help but ask about Prince Consort Xun, "He just left like that. Did he ask me? Did he say when he would be back?"

Xun Xiang said, "Dad didn't say when he would come back. He only said that he would compile "Elements of Geometry" with Gamawu and my third brother. It took a long time."

Dongyang shed tears, "If it doesn't last a year and a half, it won't last more than three to five years. I know he blames me..."

Sun Yumu accompanied Xunxiang back to Ding's house, but was left by Ding Zhuang and Zhang to have dinner.

Sun Yumu most likes Xunxiang to return to Ding Mansion. He can come whenever he wants. Not only can he see Xiangxiang, but he can also eat in the same room.

The next day, news of the Eastern Expeditionary Army's recent triumph also spread in the streets.

The Ding family is eagerly looking forward to Ding Lichun's return.

Ding Zhuang went to Hexian County anyway. It's enough to know that his eldest grandson is safe, he still has important things to do.

In Ding Zhuang's eyes, iron bumps are the most important thing.

Although they refined the "steel", it did not meet the standards Xun Xiang said.

To make high-quality steel, the carbon content needs to be low to a certain level, which requires every process to meet standards. Even in modern times, scrap steel may appear if the control is not good.

After each process matures, it must be solidified and stabilized, and only then can all the more than a dozen processes be completed accurately to achieve qualified steel.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Mrs. Yang came to Ding Mansion again.

She didn't come here to rekindle a relationship with her daughter, and she knew it was impossible. She just wanted the Ding family to blame the man less and not hinder the man's future.

Neither Zhang nor Xunxiang was seen.

Xunxiang started busy compiling books and painting again.

On the eighth day of winter, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Li of the Fujian Navy returned to Beijing in triumph with some of his soldiers.

Ding Liren asked someone to book a room in advance on the second floor of the Mingqian Teahouse where the soldiers would pass by. On this day, he took a day off and went to see Ding Lichun here with Xun Xiang, several brothers and sisters of the Ding family, and Xue Tian.

All the officers and men entered the east city gate at midnight and passed by at about noon.

Ding Liren, Xun Xiang, Xue Tian, ​​and Ding Sifu arrived here at the end of the morning, and more than a quarter of an hour later Ding Zhen and his wife Ding Erfu came.

In order to watch the excitement, Ding Erfu and Pinshi stayed overnight at Ding Zhen's house yesterday.

Lu's belly was already pregnant.

Xun Xiang smiled and said, "Second cousin sister-in-law is like this and why are you here to join in the fun?"

Ding Zhen smiled and said, "My father and my grandma didn't let her come, so she had to come."

Lu laughed loudly and said, "I admire heroes the most, so of course I have to come and see them. If I were a man, I would go to the battlefield to earn fame."

Ding Erfu was a little ashamed, "I asked Brother Lichun to help me go, but he was afraid that something would happen to me and didn't agree."

There were government officials and Jinwu guards on the street outside the window to maintain order. The middle of the road was empty, and there were many people watching the excitement standing on both sides.

The naval force was not as large as the army, and it had not yet reached the point where the streets were deserted, but there were many people standing on both sides of the road. This battle was of great significance, and the emperor sent King Jing to meet the soldiers outside the city.

The weather was relatively cold, and the soldiers did not dare to open the windows until tomorrow.

Next door are Wang Zhen's wife and children. They are here to watch Wang Qing and Wang Zhen.

I heard that Xunxiang was here, so I came to see Princess Xiangxiang as a gift.

A few people drank tea and talked about family matters. Because Dong Jiaohe was "killed in battle", they were not very happy.

When Ding Erfu took Lu back to Beiquan Village after their marriage, Wang wanted to follow him to the capital to enjoy the blessings, but Ding Youcai refused.

Ding Youcai also wanted to follow his son who became an official in the capital after his filial piety period was over and enjoy the blessings.

Ding Zhuang and Ding Shan disagreed, and specifically stated their reasons in letters to him.

One is that he is afraid that Mr. Wang will have a bad mouth and say things that should not be said, which will delay Ding Erfu's future. Moreover, Ms. Lu couldn’t bear to be angry, and Ms. Wang didn’t know how to restrain her rude words. If the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law got into trouble and Mr. Lu broke up, it would be Ding Erfu who would suffer...

Ding Erfu didn't dare to let his mother go, so he made a private agreement with Ding Youcai that he would contribute twenty taels of silver to the family every year, which was half of his military pay. He also agreed that the money would be kept with his sister-in-law He, and Ding Youcai would ask her for it if he wanted to spend it.

Ding Youcai agreed to suppress the Wang family and continue to live in his hometown.

Mrs. Lu paid filial piety to her parents-in-law, each with two sets of silk clothes, two pairs of shoes, twenty taels of silver, and some famous snacks in the capital.

Wang was very unhappy, and even more unhappy when he heard that he could not go to the capital to enjoy the blessings, so he put forward conditions.

"It is said that a daughter-in-law comes from an official family, her father is a high official, her mother is a royal official, and her dowry is nearly a thousand taels of silver. People will laugh if you tell me about such a small thing as filial piety. I don't want much, so I will build us a house with two bedrooms. , buy another twenty acres of land."

Ding Erfu's eyes were red with anger, and he shouted in a loud voice, "Mom, I, Ding Erfu, am not despicable enough to spend my wife's dowry to buy a house for my parents. I will give you twenty taels of silver every year for two years." If you can build a new house and buy twenty acres of land in six years, your filial piety has been fulfilled."

Mrs. Wang was afraid of her second son and did not dare to speak anymore, so she ran outside to talk.

He said that Mr. Lu was as black and strong as Zhang Fei. He was so rich that he would withhold money, and he would not hesitate to take more money to honor his parents-in-law. Her life was hard, and she found two daughters-in-law, one was a short winter melon, the other was a giant camel...

It made the villagers laugh, and the words spread nearby.

When Mrs. Lu heard about it, she was so angry that she burst into tears and overturned all the tables and chairs in her room.

Ding Youcai beat Mr. Wang again.

Lu wanted to return to Beijing immediately, but Ding Erfu couldn't persuade her, but He persuaded her.

"Brothers and sisters, don't be angry. Everyone in the village knows what kind of virtue she is. Mrs. Hao harmed the three rich and the fourth rich just because she didn't have good words. She scolded me every day for being a short winter melon, but I didn't turn into a winter melon.

"I don't have the good fortune of my younger siblings. No matter how angry I am, I have to share the same pot with her. I just laugh every day, hold my son's money in my hands, and make that old godly woman mad to death..."

Ding Erfu and Lu moved to the west courtyard of Ding Zhuang's house until they returned to Beijing as planned.

Mrs. Lu said that if Ding Erfu returns to his hometown to visit relatives in the future, she will not go back. If Ding Erfu dared to bring Mrs. Wang to live with her at home, she would fight against the tack board to keep her together.

They had heard these words before, and today Lu told them like a joke.

Xun Xiang secretly hummed, this is how easy it is to change one's nature. Some people can't change no matter how many times they suffer, no matter how many times they are beaten.

As he was talking, the noise outside became louder.
