There is Room For the Poor Daughter

"What did you say, the eldest brother of the fourth daughter-in-law was promoted to the prefecture of Xingzhou at the beginning of this year?" Mrs. Yang asked in shock.

The lady in charge nodded: "Yes, the lady in charge from the Yan family said it to the fourth lady herself."

Mrs. Yang Er muttered, "Why didn't the Yan family tell us about such a big thing?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Yang's expression changed, thinking of the letter her daughter accidentally dropped into the water in March, her heart jumped.

Mrs. Yang was also wondering, the Yan family was still good to the fourth daughter-in-law, and it was impossible not to respond to such a thing. Suddenly, when she saw the eldest daughter-in-law, whose complexion changed slightly, she immediately understood.

This guy is more than successful!

The old lady thought about it and asked, "Old lady, do you want to prepare a house for the servants from the Yan family? The old servant watched it carefully. The servants of the Zhou family were very polite to Mrs. Fang. Family relations should be good."

"When the fourth lady called people away, the servants of the Zhou family took the initiative to mention the time to go back, saying that they would go back together."

Mrs. Yang thought for a while: "Go ahead and prepare. This is the first time someone from the Yan family has come since we went to Beijing. Don't lose your courtesy."

"This is wine. The eldest girl brewed it herself. The slaves were lucky enough to drink it once. It's very delicious. The four girls keep it for themselves, or give it to others."

The two jars of wine sent are packed in large jars, which can be poured into small jars and divided into multiple portions.

"This is wine brewed by the eldest girl. It is the most nourishing to make sweet soup in winter."

"These are the vegetables that the old lady planted in the conservatory herself. She said she was worried that the north would be too cold, and that the girl would not have green vegetables to eat, so she sent a large cart. Unfortunately, a lot of them were frozen on the road."

"These pots of red plums and winter chrysanthemums were raised by the old lady and the eldest girl. They said they were given to the girl, Young Master Biao and Miss Biao to play with."

After that, Mrs. Li prepared other clothes, and Mrs. Fang introduced them one by one, then looked at the people in the room, and carefully took out a jewelry box.

As soon as the jewelry box was opened, Yang Xiuyun, who had always been calm, couldn't help but her eyes lit up.

There are only four flowers in the box, one each for plum, orchid, chrysanthemum, and peach, all of which are made of strings of pearls of different colors, lifelike and exquisite.

"This is a gift from the eldest girl to Miss Biao."

Yan Siyu: "This is too precious, Daohua should keep it for herself."

Mrs. Fang smiled: "Miss there is still more." Then she took out a whole set of fine pen, ink, paper and inkstone, "This is for Young Master Biao."

Finally, Mrs. Fang gave a long box to Yan Siyu: "This is given by the old lady. The slaves don't know what it is."

Yan Siyu touched the box, opened it and saw that it was a century-old ginseng.

In an instant, Yan Siyu's tears couldn't help falling again.

Niang. Niang is still thinking about the fact that she gave birth to a child and hurt her body. She sent her ginseng from thousands of miles to make up her body!

"Girl, relax, good days are ahead! Maybe one day, the Yan family will also come to Beijing." Mrs. Fang suddenly said this.

Hearing this, Yan Siyu's mother and daughter looked at Mrs. Fang at the same time.

Yan Si's tone was a little urgent: "Really, Sister Fang, you didn't lie to me, did you?"

Mrs. Fang: "Of course, our uncle was a scholar a few years ago, and now he is studying in Wangyue Academy, and the middle pound is just around the corner."

"And the third and fourth masters are also practicing martial arts in Wangyue Academy. Their bodies are as strong as calves, and they are preparing to take martial arts exams in the future."

"Our Yan family will get better and better. Although the official position of the master is only from the fifth rank of Zhizhou, but the master is an honest official, and he is still young. Who can guarantee that he will not be able to rise one tier?"

"Girl, listen to the servants. If the Yang family or uncle embarrass you in the future, don't bear it. When you came, the lady said that the Yan family can support the girl now."

Hearing these words, Yang Xiujun couldn't be more excited. If the grandfather's family really came to Beijing, then the mother and them would have to rely on.

After that, Yan Siyu dragged Mrs. Fang and talked for a while, until someone around the old lady came over and said that the room was ready, and then let the person leave and go to rest.

After waiting for the others to leave, Yan Siyu found that there were actually a few 100-denominated bank notes hidden in the box containing the ginseng. He immediately had mixed feelings, and lay down on the table and sobbed.

In the evening of that day, the Yang family knew about the arrival of the Yan family and Yan Zhigao's promotion to the prefecture at the beginning of the year.

Master Yang: "Fourth younger brother, go ask the fourth younger brother and sister, how do you respond to the New Year's gift? Discuss with her, draw up a list, and give it to your sister-in-law."

Yang Boyi, who is now a fifth-rank official, nodded.

He also didn't expect that his classmate would be able to turn over, and now the official position is directly the same as his.

When Yang Boyi returned to the main courtyard of the fourth room, Yan Siyu was leading Yang Xiuyun to distribute New Year's gifts to each room.

Seeing his wife's eyes were red and swollen, Yang Boyi's eyes flashed, he was silent for a moment, and then walked in with a smile: "What are you doing?"

Seeing her husband, the smile on Yan Siyu's face immediately faded, and she said lightly, "The New Year's gift from my elder brother and sister-in-law is about to be delivered to each room."

Yang Boyi glanced at the things in the room, his face slightly surprised.

This time, the Yan family's New Year's gift is rich enough.

Not to mention the pots of red plum and winter chrysanthemum that are in full bloom, and the jar of wine that the wife and daughter are sharing can smell the aroma of wine from afar, all of which are rare.

"It seems that my brother's family is really prosperous, and he can even get wine." You know, he has only heard of this thing, but he hasn't drunk it yet.

Yan Siyu glanced at Yang Boyi: "These are all made by the family."

Hearing this, Yang Boyi was really surprised: "Your Yan family still has this skill?"

Yan Siyu: "I haven't contacted my family for a long time, so I don't know."

Yang Boyi's complexion changed slightly, and then he smiled and said, "It's my fault. I'm usually too busy, and I neglect to communicate with your mother. I will communicate more with my eldest brother in the future."

That night, Yan Siyu sent the gifts distributed to all parties.

Each room has a small jar of wine, a small jar of wine, and two baskets of vegetables.

As for potted plants, in addition to giving Mrs. Yang a pot of red plums, Yan Siyu kept two pots in her house, and the others went to decorate the house for her children.

She has really treated her son and daughter badly over the years. She doesn't want to give anything from her parents to the other three families, she wants to use it on her children.

At dinner, everyone expressed their gratitude.

This time, the Yan family's New Year's gift is really good, although the amount is a little less, but it's all good things that can't be bought on the market.

"Hey, Fifth Sister, are the flowers on your head made of pearls?" The third girl in the big room saw the new pearl flowers on Yang Xiujun's head at a glance.

Yang Xiujun touched her bun with a smile, and nodded reservedly: "This is given to me by my cousin. Is the third sister good-looking?" She wore the beads on purpose.

In previous years, every time during the New Year, the other three families would dislike her mother and her shabby intentionally or unintentionally. Today, she will also show off in front of them and tell these people that she also has a grandfather's family.
