Chapter 190: New family and newcomers
The bridal chamber was closed last night and I waited for my uncle and aunt to visit my uncle in front of the morning hall.
The next day, after Yan Hu finished dressing up, he went to Xuan Entang, accompanied his parents and two brothers for a while, and then listened to the maid's report: "Master, madam, eldest master and grandma are here to offer tea."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Tongzhu, who was wearing a big red brocade robe and was refreshed, led Zeng Yuzhi into the door; Zeng Yuzhi was also dressed in a big red dress, wearing a bun with a tassel red gold five-winged phoenix tail hairpin, bright and generous, with the charm of becoming a wife between his eyebrows.
"Dad, please have tea, mom, please have tea." Zeng Yuzhi followed Yan and Zhu and knelt in front of Master Yan Si and Princess Nanping.
"I have seen this cup of daughter-in-law tea, but I have been looking forward to it." Princess Nanping was very happy. Finally, she became a mother-in-law and could enjoy her happiness.
After drinking tea from his daughter-in-law, he gave him a big red envelope. When he got up, Yan Tongzhu thoughtfully helped Zeng Yuzhi. Master Yan Si and Princess Nanping smiled. When his daughter-in-law came in, they could see that her walking posture was not right. They were all people who had experienced the trouble, so naturally they knew what was going on.
Zeng Yuzhi blushed. Last night, she was tortured by the men around her for a long time, and her legs were still weak. She had been worshipping her in-laws and then met her younger brothers and sisters. Zeng Yuzhi's meeting gift to Yan Tongliang was a military book, and Yan Tongming's meeting gift was a hand-written collection of strategies. They were all things that the two brothers could use. They said happily: "Thank you, sister-in-law."
The meeting gift Zeng Yuzhi gave to Yan Hu was a set of red gold-inlaid ruby peony flower head. Yan Hu took it over and smiled sweetly, "Thank you sister-in-law."
After breakfast, the family went to the Yan family's ancestral home, where a lot of people were waiting. When they arrived at the ancestral home, they offered tea to Grand Tutor Yan and Mrs. Yan, "The grandson (grandson-in-law) greeted grandfather and grandmother, grandfather and grandmother, and grandmother and grandmother, and the grandmother and grandmother and tea."
Both old men gave a thick red envelope, and Mrs. Yan also put a pair of red jade bracelets on Zeng Yuzhi's hand, "Grandma is waiting for you and Bingyi to spread their branches and leaves!"
Zeng Yu's face seemed to be burning, shy, and the cramped Yan Huo smiled and said, "Grandmother, grandmother, and fourth sister-in-law promised me that she would give birth to five little nephews for me."
"We Xiaoxiao is the lucky star Xiao Zhaodi, and what we say must be accurate." Mrs. Yan said happily.
Zeng Yuzhi's face turned redder, and he responded softly, respectfully presented the four-color needle and thread she made to the two elders. Mrs. Yan held the soft-bottomed embroidered shoes and praised: "The needle and thread of Xiao Sijia is good."
Zeng Yuzhi pursed his lips and smiled slightly. After meeting the elders, he greeted his peers and gave him a gift. The sisters in the hall were all kinds of jewelry, the brother-in-law in the hall was the four treasures of the study, and the nephews were all jade pendants.
After having a family recognizing the family at the ancestral home, the family returned to the Minister's Mansion. After three days of returning, Zeng Yuzhi began to follow the housekeeper of Nanping County. Princess Nanping is the youngest daughter, and she married into the Yan family and is the fourth daughter-in-law. She is impatient to take care of these common affairs. Now that she has a daughter-in-law, she wants to be a hand-off manager and be an old Fengjun to enjoy a happy life.
Zeng Yuzhi was amused and crying. The mother-in-law from other families wanted to hold on to the gift and let go. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were intrigued to fight for power, but her mother-in-law was not willing to manage the housekeeper at all. Her husband was gentle, her mother-in-law was kind, and her sister-in-law was cute. Her life after marriage was better than she thought.
In the blink of an eye, it was the New Year's Eve. The man did not worship the moon, and the woman did not worship the kitchen. Zeng Yuzhi just asked someone to prepare the offerings and was not present. After Yan Tongzhu finished the sacrifice, he returned to Dunhou Courtyard. Zeng Yuzhi fell asleep leaning against the bed.
Yan Tongzhu carefully wanted to move Zeng Yuzhi to the bed. Zeng Yuzhi woke up, "When is it time for you to come back?"
"The hour of Hai is right." Yan Tongzhu raised his hand to help her put the broken hair between her forehead behind her ears, "I will be back late in the future, so you don't have to wait for me."
"I want to wait for you." Zeng Yuzhi said softly.
Yan Tongzhu looked at her, and saw a faint prayer in her eyes, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid you will work hard."
"I don't work hard." Zeng Yuzhi smiled with a smile on his lips.
"Then I will try to come back as soon as possible to prevent you from waiting so tired." Yan Tongzhu smiled gently.
Zeng Yuzhi nodded, "Husband, let's wash up."
The two of them called the maid to pour warm water in, and after washing, they went to bed to rest. The newlyweds were less than term and were still enthusiastic. After a while, they were rolling in the waves and the bed squeaked for a long time.
Just like the songs sung during the Chinese New Year, twenty-three, sacrifice to the Kitchen God; twenty-four, sweeping the house. The little girls in the yard began to sweep the dust, but the new yard has not been cleaned for a while, and there is not much dust accumulation. Sweeping dust means to make a scene.
On the 25th, Master Yan Si wrote Spring Festival couplets in his study and asked him to send them to the yard. Zeng Yuzhi got the Spring Festival couplets and asked the maids to post them on the yard. When Yan Tongzhu returned to the yard at noon, the yard was prosperous and the New Year atmosphere was full.
Yan Tongzhu walked into the Donghunting Pavilion and saw Zeng Yuzhi sitting cross-legged on the kang, cutting window flowers, and asked with a smile: "What are you cutting?"
"The magpies climb the plum blossoms." Zeng Yuzhi opened the window flowers to show him, "I didn't cut them very well."
"It's pretty good to cut." Yan Tongzhu smiled and took out a paper cut from behind and handed it to her.
Zeng Yuzhi opened it and saw that he was an extremely exquisite rich and noble white-headed man. "Where did you get it?"
"Fu Wujiu sent a box of window flowers to my younger sister, and my younger sister gave me one and said you must like it." Yan Tongzhu smiled.
Zeng Yu smiled and said, "My little sister knows me so much. I like this rich and white hair very much. Stick it up."
The couple pasted window flowers. In Qingfu courtyard, Yan Hu and Fu Zhixing were looking at the window flowers. The complex patterns were difficult to draw even if they were painted, let alone cut them. "Where did such exquisite window flowers come from?" Even if Fu Zhixing had skillful hands, he didn't have time to cut them. What's more, Fu Zhixing, who can't cut window flowers.
"I'll send someone to the mansion to you, so I'll come here to you with a box." Fu Zhixing said with a smile.
"Then let's paste them." Yan Huo took out the window flowers and posted them with Fu Zhixing, "Don't come here this New Year's Eve!"
"Why?" Fu Zhixing looked at her with a grim look.
"I moved this year and my sister-in-law just entered the door. I have to stay tuned to stay up to the New Year, so it's hard to come back to the yard. Besides, we have met today on the 25th day. It's nothing if we haven't seen each other for 30 days." Yan Huo explained.
Fu Zhixing said depressedly: "Xiaoxiao, it's like three autumns after not seeing each other in one day."
"On the morning of the second day of the Chinese New Year, I will go buy candy fried chestnuts. We will meet you then. Can I wish you a happy New Year?" Yan Huo coaxed him softly.
"Okay." Fu Zhixing could only agree that he couldn't see him on New Year's Eve, and it would be nice to meet him on the second day of the New Year.
After pasting the window flowers, Yan Hae asked the pastry made by Yamao Yamao to be released. Yan Hae put it in a food box, "Cousin Fu, take it back for your aunt and aunt to taste."
Fu Zhixing didn't refuse and took the food box, "It's cold outside, don't come out."
