Feng has been very busy these days.
The Duke's house of Noda has to prepare things for the new year's festival, as well as the gifts of various families. At the end of Zhou Xian's reign, Liu Shenjun in the Northwest has directly invited a matchmaker to send the bride price. The matchmaker is coming in these two days.
Xiuying has been worried since Shen Junxiao came home. She helped Feng Shi. Every day she inquired whether there was any letter from the northwest. She was always out of her mind and almost did not help Feng.
On the 28th of the year, the matchmaker who sent the bride price to Liu Shenjun finally arrived, and Xiuying was very nervous. Of course, there was a letter from Zhou Zhen, but there was no mention of the matter mentioned by Shen Junxiao. Xiuying was relieved. Facing the date operator of the letter, it was estimated that there would be no news until the new year.
In this way, she calmed down a lot and listened to the elders quietly by Feng's side.
Because there was no one in his family and he lived in the northwest all the year round, Liu had set up a lot of industries in the northwest as early as possible.
The matchmaker almost didn't make Liu join the army, but Mrs. Zhou interrupted: "is there any industry in the northwest? Then we Xian's sister has to stay away from the capital. I'm really reluctant to part with her. "
Although Zhou Xian made a big mistake, Mrs. Zhou didn't want her granddaughter to marry far away. After all, she loved her too.
The matchmaker immediately laughed, and his red face would smile into a flower: "don't worry, old lady. Lord Liu said that there will be a mansion here in Beijing. She will come back to Beijing to get married. If Miss Zhou wants to stay in Beijing after marriage, she will stay in Beijing, and she won't be wronged. "
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhou looked pale. On the edge, Liao's eyes were red.
She really wanted to thank Feng for the marriage. She knew that Liu could make such a promise. It would be impossible without Zhou Zhen in the middle.
At present, Zhou Xian's marriage was really settled. When the Houfu opened the door, they welcomed all the betrothal gifts tied with red silk. The sound of setting off firecrackers outside for a long time attracted many people to look around at the hutongkou. Feng also ordered people to go outside to spread the money, and spread the matter in a face-to-face manner.
When everything was finished, Xiuying followed Feng back to the main courtyard. Liao's back foot led Zhou Xian to the door.
The mother and daughter were going to pay a big ceremony to the Feng family, bluffing him and helping them up.
Liao wiped her tears and said, "sister-in-law, I was wrong before and will never be again. The truth of xian'er is that I am sorry for you. "
Zhou Xian pursed her lips, drooped her eyes, and her eyes were covered with tears.
"It's a family, after all." Feng sighed for a long time.
After hearing this, Liao almost cried out again. Later, he was advised to go back.
In fact, if there is no gap in my heart is false, but Liao's repentance will not happen again. Let's live like that first. Now the Zhou family will not be separated.
Xiuying also understood that Zhou Xian saluted her before she left, and her mood was very complicated.
"Let's have a good new year first. Sister Xian should really repent." Feng didn't understand her daughter and patted her on the shoulder.
Xiuying smiles and murmurs about Shen Jun's proposal to her father.
The days were fast, and soon it was new year's Eve.
Fengdi has always been thrifty. This year, he did not have a big feast. He just held a family dinner in the palace and sat with his children for the new year.
Compared with the bustle of the noble people in the palace, the Zhou family seems a little cold.
The four men in the family are in the front line, and only the young master of two rooms and three rooms is at the table. Mrs. Zhou is really sad at this time. A few days ago, I didn't see her son, but there was no such family sitting around. Now she looks at almost a woman. How can she not think of her son.
In fact, Liu miss her husband more than Mrs. Zhou. This is the second year on Tuesday that the master is not at home for the new year. The couple haven't seen each other for more than a year.
Fortunately, Xu's pregnant wife finally said it at this time, which was a blessing to the new year's day. Mrs. Zhou seldom showed her cold face to the people in the second room. She opened a private library for the unpopular granddaughter-in-law and took a lot of tonics. The family had a good time at the end of the meal.
Shen Jun returned to his old house with a smile, and the dinner after ancestor worship was very depressed.
This kind of festival, Mr. Shen is naturally going to attend. Mrs. Shen went back to the Marquis's house, and she had no heart. Second master Shen was in the middle of the circle to ease his anger. The brothers could not go back to the old days. A new year's Eve dinner would be over in half an hour.
When Shen Junxiao returned to Muxi courtyard, snow particles floated down from the sky.
He was fascinated by the snow. He didn't remember whether it had snowed at this time in his previous life, but he remembered that he followed the little girl to watch the new year in the old house in the previous life. The girl was so sleepy that she looked like a chicken pecking rice.
Thinking, he can't help but bend the corners of his lips, facing the growing snow exhale white gas, do not know what the little girl is doing now.
At this time, Shen Xiuying was playing leaf cards with her brothers and sisters. I don't know which servant girl happily said it was snowing. They all lost their cards and ran out of the house, looking up at the beautiful snowflake.When the elders were afraid that they would rush back to the house with Liangdu, I don't know who cheated and changed the cards. The little girl in a room was like blowing up a nest, chirping, laughing and noisy.
Xiuying looks at her sisters who are all about to make a group laugh. She feels that this year is the most harmonious year for her in the Zhou family, but there is no Shen Jun smiling around. She turned her head to listen to the sound of snow falling outside the window, wondering what the youth in Yongping mansion were doing.
At the same time, the letter sent by Mr. Dou to Northwest China was delayed for several days due to the weather, and finally arrived at Zhou zhenshou on the last day of the lunar new year.
Zhou Zhen heard that it was his letter. No matter he was drinking with his brothers and generals, Zhou Zhen opened the letter directly. Unexpectedly, after reading a page, the wine that had just been sipped in his mouth gushed out.
Zhou Jiayu was beside him, half of his face was doused with wine mist.
