Chapter 349: Steward Peng’s victory
Li Laosi sent Mr. Wen back to the city, and went to the Marquis Mansion to find the butler and picked up the princess's formal attire and regular clothes.
These are sewn by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and they are also a fixed reward given by Tianwu to those with titles.
The four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, each season has two sets.
The Li family did not issue an imperial edict before, so the chief steward went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to receive these rewards.
Now that it is finally useful, the butler is very excited.
Not only is it equipped with formal attire, but it is also equipped with small items such as shoes and jewelry, making sure to make the eldest lady of the Marquis's house look stunning.
When Li Laosi was going out, he happened to meet the Marquis returning to his house.
Li Laosi simply said a few words, but the Marquis didn't pay attention.
Compared to the Marquis, Mr. Peng is just a teacher in an academy and is not worthy of the Marquis's undue attention.
What's more, the Li family is a good family, and the Marquis doesn't think the Peng family will refuse. "Do you need me to go over tomorrow and accompany Auntie to Peng's house?"
"No, no need!" Li Laosi quickly waved his hand and rejected the Marquis's kindness, "Mother said that she and Fu Niu'er are enough. The main thing is to see how good Miss Peng is. If we really want to get married, we will talk about it when the time comes. "
The Marquis nodded and asked the butler again, "Have all the old lady's clothes and jewelry been packed in?"
“Don’t worry, Lord Marquis, the house always has these. The old lady’s dress has just been sewn in the sewing room for a few days. I originally wanted to wait for the Marquis to take it with me when he returns to Zhuangzi, but I didn’t expect to use it today.”
The housekeeper responded with a smile, and then the Marquis let Li Laosi leave.
At dusk, Jiaren held Brother Li's hand and hurried back from the academy excitedly. He was also happy to see his grandma, sister and uncle all there, "Grandma, it's not my birthday, so why did you come all the way? On the way? What a bump!”
Jiaren hugged his sister and gave her a big kiss, which made Jiayin giggle.
Brother Li hugged grandma's arm, but he wasn't close enough.
Soon, the students who came to eat were sent away, and the family closed the courtyard door and ate quietly.
Jiaren heard that brother Li said that grandma was here, so he asked for leave. Their brothers could stay at home tonight.
Everyone was sitting around, and Jiayin brought a box as a birthday gift to her brother. Inside the box were a hundred plain gold dice, which were very delicate.
This is the favorite and most popular type of writing paper among Tianwu scholars. Each piece is larger than an adult's palm and is used for writing posts or simple messages.
Jiaren was of course reluctant to use it on weekdays, but he didn’t expect his little rich sister to give him so much.
Mrs. Li and Mr. Li gave them all money and asked Jiaren to use it as pocket money and buy whatever they wanted.
Zhao Yuru sewed a new shirt for Jiaren, Li Laosan made a small bookshelf for his nephew to put on the desk, and Jiahuan cooked a table of dishes to satisfy his wishes.
Brother Li also joined in the fun and gave his eldest brother a new writing brush.
Everyone was eating, talking and laughing, and was very happy. Only the family members were forced to smile, which was a little weird.
Jiaren found out. After dinner, he asked a few questions while talking to grandma.
Hearing that so many things happened on this day, Jiaren was also surprised, and finally said: "Grandma, there are many academies in the world. Brother Li and I can go to study anywhere. Don't let you and your family suffer because you are worried about us. "
Mrs. Li was extremely pleased and said with a smile: "Don't worry, grandma knows what's going on. Just study hard and you don't have to worry about things at home."
That’s what he said, but how could Jiaren not be worried.
On the other hand, Brother Li and Jiayin had a great time playing. Brother Li took a small wooden sword and showed it off to his sister non-stop.
It turns out that they have also begun to learn swordsmanship, but they can only use wooden swords for fear of accidental injury.
Li Laosan stayed up late to carve one for his nephew, which was lifelike and light.
Brother Li likes it very much. He doesn’t want to get close to people, and he won’t let go even if he touches her.
Early on the next morning, after dinner, Jiaren and Brother Li hurried back to the academy.
Gou Sheng'er stayed at the dormitory last night, waiting at the door with books in his arms. After picking them up, he hurried to class.
The old lady and Jiayin waited until three o'clock in the morning before changing their clothes and arriving at the gate of the academy accompanied by Li Laosan and Li Laosi. Jia Huan finally saw the clues and tugged on my mother's sleeve, but didn't say anything for a long time.
Zhao Yuru glared at her son and hit him with anger!
Li Laosan dressed up like a wealthy official, wearing a long gown and a official hat.
Li Laosi, on the other hand, is wearing a short suit, long boots, and a long sword hanging on his waist. He looks like a general in the army at first sight.
Mrs. Li wore a sapphire blue top with six blessings and a dark pattern, and a honey-colored cotton skirt. Her slightly gray hair was **** in a bun, and she had a white jade fortune square.
The whole person is full of amiability, making people feel close to him when they see him.
Jiayin did not wear the princess's dress, only ordinary clothes.
The top is a light red shirt embroidered with small yellow flowers all over, paired with a pleated skirt with snow satin moire pattern, and an auspicious cloud gold lock is worn around the neck.
Hair was pulled into two small buds, and two golden-winged butterflies were added. The butterfly wings trembled as she walked, as if they were about to fly away.
With a family of four looking like this, who would dare to be careless when they stop in front of the academy gate?
Soon, the chief steward of the Peng family came over and took the Li family into the academy.
The butler was bending down all the way, looking very humble.
Yesterday I heard that the Li family had a princess with a fiefdom, and Mr. Peng gave instructions.
Actually, even if your husband doesn’t give instructions, he will never neglect it!
The Second Madam was successfully pulled down. He endured it for two years and finally turned around. But it was all because of the Li family's intervention. He couldn't even be grateful!
After entering the Peng family yard, Mr. Peng was already waiting at the door.
He came up first to salute Mrs. Li, and also wanted to salute Good News, but the old lady stopped her, "Sir, you don't have to do this. Even if the emperor is merciful and rewards you with a title, Fu Niu'er is still a child and a junior in front of you. "
Jiayin also performed the junior salute in an upright manner and called sir in a tender voice, which was very cute.
Literary people value face. Yesterday there was a big commotion at home. Mr. Peng felt embarrassed. Now facing the Li family, he felt a little uncomfortable.
But seeing the Li family being so polite, his discomfort immediately disappeared.
Everyone entered the study room, and the guest and host sat down respectively. After drinking half a cup of tea, Mrs. Li apologized to Jia Huan.
Don’t worry about whether the Peng family did anything wrong or not, Jia Huan just doesn’t understand the rules when he walks around privately with his daughter.
Mr. Peng didn’t hold on to her. After all, he didn’t know the rules, which was even more serious for his daughter.
Jiayin looked anxiously at her future second sister-in-law and said she needed to change her clothes.
Mrs. Li looked helpless and said to Mr. Peng: "This child drank a lot of water when he got up early. I'm afraid he will trouble the servants of your house."
“The old lady is polite, the princess is still young, this is what she should be doing.”
Mr. Peng knew very well that the Li family wanted to see their daughter, so he called the boy to lead his grandfather and grandson to the backyard.
In the backyard, Miss Peng had been nervous all morning. She heard that the old lady from the Li family was coming, but she didn't even eat breakfast.
Now I finally see someone, but I feel a little awkward talking to him.
Jiayin Dian'er ran over, took Miss Peng's hand, and said with a smile: "Sister Peng, I am Fu Niu'er! You are so beautiful, and you are so tall!"
Ms. Peng subconsciously responded, "You are so cute, just like your brother said!"
After saying that, she realized what she had said and her face turned red.
The old lady also looked at it for a long time and felt very satisfied.
This girl Peng is taller than ordinary girls and has a slender figure.
Perhaps he didn't eat well before, so his face is not so rosy, but his eyes are big and willowy, and he is very dignified.
In the future, as long as you replenish it properly, it will definitely be much more beautiful than it is today.
