Chapter 73 Pink Ticket in April 42o

In April in Yanjing, the wind is clear and the sun is warm. It rains occasionally, but it is not like Yuhang, where it rains non-stop and the air is filled with moisture. After a rain, it will clear up immediately, the sky is blue, and the scent of vegetation is floating in the air.

Fragrant and exceptionally fresh.

Eleven Niang took a deep breath, feeling like she was relaxing in the air.

It has been more than a year since Yuan Niang passed away, and Wu Niang's marriage was brought up again. The eldest wife was still reserved and wanted to postpone it for a while, but the eldest man was very unhappy: How old Wu Niang is this year, are you planning to let her stay at home?

Be an old girl

Mrs. Huang was overjoyed when she heard this, and came to Luo's house for three days in a row.

The eldest wife felt that she had gained enough face, so she was relieved, and Wu Niang's wedding was scheduled for April 28th.

Today is the 27th of April in the fourth year of Yonghe, the day when the dowry is laid out for the fifth mother.

Miss, miss, the third wife is here. I asked you to go and say hello. Qiu Ju ran in, and the fifth and sixth masters came too.

After knowing this, Eleven Niang followed Qiu Ju to the main courtyard with a smile.

The third wife was standing with Da Nai in front of the Chuihua door talking. As she got closer, she saw two little boys outside the Chuihua door where Wu Niang’s dowry was piled. One was sitting on the toilet, and the other was hugging a bed curtain tightly, shouting.

:This is mine. If my fifth brother-in-law doesn’t give me money, I won’t let him take it away.

The two made everyone laugh.

Who else can be so naughty besides Luo Zhenkai and Luo Zhenyu

In May of last year, the third master was released from studying politics in Sichuan. The third wife had just hired a teacher named Zhao for Luo Zhenkai and Luo Zhenyu. She was afraid of delaying their studies, so she stayed in Yanjing.

The Eleventh Mother stepped forward and saluted the Third Wife: Third Aunt, you are here.

The third wife looked at her: she had grown taller and more beautiful.

Eleven Niang smiled gracefully and said: Thank you Third Aunt for the compliment.

The third wife smiled and then asked the grandma: When will the fifth uncle send someone to pick up the dowry.

Da Nai smiled and said, "It's an auspicious time."

The third wife looked at the sky and said, "Looking like it's almost here, it's a good thing I'm not late."

Before she finished speaking, the concierge shouted: Third master, fourth uncle, third grandma, and fourth aunt are here to congratulate you.

After hearing this, the third wife frowned: Your second aunt is not coming back.

In June last year, the second master filled the vacancy of Shandong's political participation. The second wife took Qiniang to take office, leaving the third master and the third grandma in Yanjing. When the eldest wife found out, she couldn't help but sneer: Are you still afraid that I will move to my hometown?

She can't live in Juntang Hutong. If she has the skills, she should think about how to get her son to go to school.

Last year Luo Zhenda failed to pass the boy examination.

The elder became a little impatient after hearing this: Why do you worry so much when you just take care of your own affairs?

After the incident with Dijin, the eldest man gave Luo Zhensheng a severe beating. The two-finger-wide bamboo stick was abruptly broken. If Wu Niang hadn't pounced on him and begged for mercy, Luo Zhensheng would have died.

. He lay in bed in a daze for more than half a month before he woke up. Just like this, the elder was still upset when he saw it. Before the summer was over, he asked Wu Xiaoquan to send him back to Yuhang. Throughout the second half of the year, Wu Niang was worried about Luo Zhensheng's injury.

, a letter was sent to him ten days ago asking about his injuries. I don’t know whether it was because he was beaten too hard or because he had to go back to Yuhang in the middle. Luo Zhensheng could not walk until mid-March this year. It was also because of this that when Wu Niang got married, San Yiniang was not able to rush

Come.

It was said that we arrived in just two days. Shandong is not far from Yanjing. When the eldest wife wrote to the second wife to tell her about Wu Niang's wedding, the second wife had promised to come back. I don't know why, but there is no sign of her yet.

Big tits replied with a smile.

The third wife was about to say something else, but when she saw the third grandma and the fourth sister-in-law walking in, she swallowed her words with a smile.

After everyone received the greetings and said a few polite words, Da Nai invited the three of them to a side room to have tea.

There was the sound of gongs and drums outside.

Someone shouted: My uncle is here to move the tents.

There were older female relatives standing on the steps in front of the Chuihua Gate to watch the excitement.

Luo Zhenxing, Luo Zhenda, and Yu Yiqing blocked the door: "Bring the red envelope, bring the red envelope."

Luo Zhenxing was admitted to the Imperial Academy and will study in the Hanlin Academy for three years. Although he is still waiting for a job, he is no longer as eager as before. Instead, he is as leisurely as living in Yanjing. Today he will go to the Poetry Festival, and tomorrow he will go to the Poetry Festival.

Went to see the mountain scenery and had a great time.

Someone knocked on the door loudly outside: when you opened the door, you gave me a red envelope.

Luo Zhenyu and Luo Zhenkai couldn't leave. They sounded anxious and angry. They shouted at the top of their lungs: There's mine, there's mine.

The whole courtyard was laughing and very lively.

After finally knocking the door open, the matchmaker came in and said auspicious words and gave red envelopes. Amid laughter, the Qian family's porters filed away and picked up the dowry.

As the bridesmaid, Da Bo went to Qian Ming's place to make the bed for Wu Niang.

Looking at the empty yard, Eleven Niang couldn't help but feel a little deserted.

The Wang family has come to discuss marriage several times. According to the eldest wife, if Wu Niang marries her, she will set a date with the Wang family.

It truly lives up to the saying that glass is easily broken and colorful clouds are easily dispersed.

The three sisters are afraid that they will go their separate ways.

However, I heard that Wang Lang got a job in the Royal Forest Army in September last year. Although he had a few fights with people due to quarrels, he was still able to do it every day. Maybe as he got older, his temper would be better.

Eleven Niang couldn't help but think a little like an ostrich.

It is always a good thing for sisters to marry well.

Like Siniang, her fourth brother-in-law Yu Yiqing worked as a compiler and editor at the Hanlin Academy. Within a few days, he was appreciated by the emperor, and he was often called to listen to him lecture on the Book of Changes.

A little maid came to tell her: Miss Eleven, the banquet is about to begin.

Eleven Niang returned to her house.

When I met Ziwei head-on, I saw her as if I were seeing a life-saving straw: Miss Eleven, our lady keeps asking you why you haven’t come back yet.

Eleven Niang was slightly startled: Fifth sister is looking for me?

Yes, Ziwei nodded.

The eleventh mother went to the fifth mother's place.

The things she used on weekdays were all sent to Qian Ming's place along with the dowry. The room seemed a little empty, but the bright red phoenix wedding dress embroidered with gold hanging on the black lacquered wooden hanger was very dazzling.

Wu Niang was sitting on the kang, but when she saw Eleven Niang, she got off the kang.

She grabbed Eleven Niang’s hand: Where have you been? Why didn’t you go back to the house for lunch?

I was about to come back for lunch. Eleventh Niang just answered, and Wu Niang was already talking nonstop: I have been waiting for you for a long time at noon and I didn’t see your shadow. What did you eat for lunch? The kitchen sent me a small pickled vegetable.

Yellow croaker, a dish of Longjing shrimps, a dish of shredded chicken stingers, and a dish of cabbage with ginger sauce. I don’t know which chef I found. The yellow croaker was not fresh, the shrimps were overcooked, the stings looked like wax heads, and the cabbage was not tender.

All in all, a lot of complaints

Eleven Niang suddenly understood.

Wuniang, I'm scared

Who can be completely calm when marrying a stranger, marrying into a strange place, starting a new life with a new identity?

She couldn't help but hold Wu Niang's hand tightly, wanting to comfort her in this way.

I don’t know if the house in Yanjing is expensive or not. Renting a house is always not a problem. Who is like me? As soon as I get married, I have to worry about food and clothing. I don’t know what is happening to my fourth brother now. How did he become so confused that he was killed?

Jin was obsessed with it. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have to go back to Yuhang. When I get married, he can still give me a ride.

Wu Niang said and started to cry.

Eleven Niang knew that she just wanted to relieve her worries, so when she saw her crying, she thought it was a good thing and called the maid to give her water to clean her face.

After washing her face, Wu Niang felt much better.

Shi Niang shuts herself up at home every day and doesn’t know what she is doing. She said, I’m getting married and she doesn’t come to see me. After all, we are sisters. Even if there is any deep hatred, we all have our own things.

For his sake, she is abnormal

For more than a year, Shiniang has never paid attention to anything, and she seems to be going her own way. I don’t know if it’s because the eldest wife has already thought of a way to deal with Shiniang, and she has an uneasy tolerance for Shiniang. Take the last time

When the seventh girl of the Gan family invited them to enjoy the snow, the eldest wife kept her and let Shiniang go. So the seventh girl of the Gan family wrote to ask her if it was because she wanted to marry into the Xu family.

, so the eldest wife wouldn’t let her show up.

Only then did Eleven Niang know what Yuan Niang said before she died.

From the tone of the seventh lady of the Gan family, not only did she know about the agreement between the Xu and Luo families, but the news about the meritorious family in Yanjing had also been spread throughout the country. Everyone was waiting to see when the Xu family would hire someone from the Luo family.

In May last year, the emperor went to the northwest to mobilize troops. At first, he used the commander-in-chief of the Fifth Army Commander-in-Chief, Jiang Feiyun. However, in July, the war situation was unfavorable. The emperor ignored the objections of the ministers and temporarily changed the generals. He appointed Xu Lingyi as the general to conquer the west and preside over the war in the northwest.

It was not until October that good news came. The war continued until March of this year. Although there were frequent good news, the casualties seemed to be quite high. There was also the imperial censor's impeachment of Xu Lingyi's military governor for his ineffectiveness. Although the emperor failed to survive, ten

My mother has always been a little worried.

She hoped that Xu Lingyi could return safely.

After all, she had already said that she wanted to marry into the Xu family. If something happened then, she didn't know what would be waiting for her.
