Chapter 110 It's the end of the year again
Chen Muke was addicted to the gentle village of Hua, and he had no idea that there were two people waiting for him to rescue him; Chen Danbin was kept in the ancestral hall for three hours under the care of the two women, and was taken back to Guixiangyuan by her wet nurse in the middle of the night; Dong Qixiu was guarded by someone and knelt in the small black room behind him all night, almost killing his legs.
Chen Danbi was young and was cold in the ancestral hall for three hours. He was sick due to cold. Dong Qixiu's leg was injured and he was in bed to rest, but it did not prevent her from complaining to Chen Muke. He said in a black and white manner, and said in tears: "Master, Madam, this is trying to kill me and my mother. You want to make the decision for me and my mother! Master."
Chen Muke was encouraged by her and immediately went to the main courtyard to settle the score. Tao looked at him angry and said calmly: "If the master thinks that the legitimate wife and illegitimate family are not divided, and the master is not master or servant, and it will not affect the career of the officialdom, I will never be troubled in the future."
"What do you mean?" Chen Muke asked.
"I won't talk about anything else, I just ask the master one, "The Thirteenth Girl calls Aunt Dong as her mother, but the master allows it?" asked Tao.
When he was in Tanzhou, Chen Danbi called Dong Qixiu as his mother. After returning to Jindu, Chen Danbi did not change his words, Dong Qixiu did not correct it, and Chen Muke did not stop it, which was equivalent to acquiescing the behavior of their mother and daughter. But now Tao mentioned that he would never admit it. If he admitted it, it would be equivalent to admitting that he favored his concubine and killed his wife.
If you don't make trouble with your concubines and wives, the censor will turn a blind eye, but Chen Muke knew that Tao would definitely make trouble and left embarrassedly. He didn't know what he and Dong Qixiu said. After Chen Danbiao recovered from his illness, he went to the main courtyard with Dong Qixiu to pay tribute to Tao. Tao did not see them, so he asked them to kowtow in the yard and then get out.
On the second day of November, Chen Danyao got married. The betrothal gift from the Yunyang Marquis' Mansion was 120 yuan, and the dowry of the Shen family was also 120 yuan.
Three days later, Chen Danyao returned to the door. Chen Danxia saw that she was dressed in gorgeous clothes, but there was a layer of fatigue between her eyebrows and eyes. Even though Chen Danxia had never been in love or married in her previous life, she had never raised pigs and ate pork. She thought that Chen Danyao and Tian Sixiu worked too hard at night, but she didn't know that Chen Danyao was so worried that she didn't sleep well last night because she was forced by her mother-in-law to hand over half of her dowry.
Chen Danyao couldn't tell her family about her depression. After lunch, she returned to the marquis's mansion with the slightly drunk Tian Sixiu and began a life of fighting with her mother-in-law.
On the 17th of this month, Chen Danxia went out to Baofu Building and went to Zhenbao Pavilion to customize a set of head faces. At the end of the month, Zhenbao Pavilion brought head faces to Shen's house. Two days later, Tao took Chen Danxia to Renyi Bo Mansion. This set of head faces was made-up given to Tao Jie by Chen Danxia, and Tao Jie's good life was set on the 19th day of the first lunar month.
A few days later, it was the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. Early in the morning, the decent woman in the mansion took Chen Muke's post and went to Fayuan Temple to receive Laba porridge. At this time of year, Guanglu Temple will provide food and firewood, and let the monks in the temple cook a few large pots of Laba porridge for the people in the city to collect. Of course, not everyone can receive it. You must go from the sixth rank or above official families. It is a way for the emperor to win over people.
On the morning of the ninth day of the lunar month, all kinds of gold and silver croquettes customized from the silver building were sent to the Sanfang Courtyard. Jialifang also delivered the customized brand new faces. Jianxiu Yizhuang also delivered the new clothes and heads for Chen Danhui and Shen Danxun. Tao beat the maid and sent them to their room.
Tao was originally rich in dowry, and she used what she knew in her dream to guide her elder brother, and made a few big deals, earning nearly one million taels of silver. She also used the money to buy fertile land, orchards, farms and shops. The money was spent on money and profitable. Now the rent of the shop alone was tens of thousands of taels of silver every month. Not to mention anything else, she was well-off and did not treat her two obedient concubines. She made six sets of clothes for each of them, all of which were good clothes, and also customized a set of red gold-headed and two sets of gilded faces for them.
When she was sent to the small building where Chen Danhui lived, she was seen by Chen Dannian, who lived opposite her. Chen Dannian was full of jealousy and hatred. During the Chinese New Year, she made two new clothes, which were made by the needlework and thread ladies in the mansion. The fabric was just ordinary silk. Looking at the things in front of her, she felt a little regretful. If she was like Shen Danhui, she would have liked her to please her mother, would she have these things? This thought flashed through her mind, and Chen Dannian immediately denied and curled her lips. She would not please the mother who was a lowly born.
Chen Dannian didn't want to please Tao, but the little girl loved beauty and wanted something. Before she could come up with a solution, Chen Dannian was already making a fuss, "I want new clothes, I also want new faces."
Dong Qixiu looked at her youngest daughter who was crying and had a headache. She was not as good as Jin in Tanzhou. The gifts given to Chen Muke by others were all the same as Chen Muke's salary. Chen Muke had to pay half of the salary to her home, and Chen Muke had to take care of her. Dong Qixiu had not received Chen Muke's salary for two months, and she was all supplementing with her private house.
Chen Danbi couldn't understand the difficulties of her biological mother. Anyway, she just wanted new clothes and new faces. If she didn't give them, she would cry to death. Dong Qixiu coaxed her for a long time, but she couldn't stop her crying. She couldn't help but let go, "Okay, okay, I'll make you new clothes and order new faces, stop crying, you little enemy."
It is impossible not to do it for the eldest daughter to make it. But she couldn't bear to do it as big as the Tao, and made three sets for her two daughters, one set for each gilded head and face.
In any case, the five girls in the third bedroom were much better dressed than the girls in the other two bedrooms. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the five people were a new set. Of course, there were differences between the five. Chen Danxia was dressed in feather satin, Chen Danhui and Shen Danxu were dressed in cloud satin, and even those who didn't know the goods could see the difference between the three. Chen Danqi and others had different expressions and muttered to themselves that the third uncle and third aunt were really rich. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Chen Wanwan, Chen Gong took his husband and children back to pay New Year's greetings, and they changed into new sets, which attracted the envy of the girls in the other two bedrooms. In the third day of the Lunar New Year, Tao wanted to go back to her parents' home to pay New Year's greetings. Early in the morning, she took Shen Bomi brothers, Chen Danxia, Chen Danhui and Shen Danxu to Xuanziyuan to pay New Year's greetings to Chen's mother.
"Where is the third brother?" Chen asked with a frown.
Tao smiled faintly and said, "The master stopped at Aunt Dong's place yesterday. Aunt Dong is used to serving people. The master thinks that he hasn't gotten up yet. Don't worry, the old lady, I'll let someone urge you."
Mother Chen's face looked a little ugly, "Pearl, go and invite the third master."
