When the day came, Daiyu and Baochai went home respectively. One of Jia She and Jia Zheng stayed at home, and the other worked as a secretary to show that he was a good employee and would never ask for leave. Ou Mengmeng could only sigh and took Sichun with her to Prince Zhongshun's Mansion.
Ou Mengmeng went through Jia Mu's memories for a long time and found that the Jia family really had nothing to do with King Zhongshun. Even if the eldest daughter of the Zhang family marries the second son of Prince Zhongshun, there are still Princess Zhongshun and Prince Consort Zhongshun. What right does she, the second daughter-in-law, have to decide to let them come on the first day?
But no matter what, I can only go to congratulate the concubine on her birthday. An old lord like Jia Mu has to sit in the inner courtyard and talk to the concubine.
Prince Zhongshun's biological mother's background was worse than that of Princess Hui, and she had always been transparent in the palace. If he hadn't had a son, I'm afraid he would have died long ago. Of course, even if she has a son, her aura is not very strong. When her son came out of the palace and branched out of the palace as an adult, he made a concubine and waited for the new emperor to ascend the throne. Among the brothers, they were the only ones. Old lady Yu was just named the Supreme Imperial Concubine. She was not given a title before, and was only distinguished by her surname. When she became the Concubine, the Supreme Emperor thought about it and gave her the title "An", which means that she will live her life in peace and order. Now everyone also calls her Concubine An.
Otherwise, the ethereal emperor’s concubine’s birthday celebration would be on the old sage’s territory. If the old saint was unhappy, he would wipe it out in the name of frugality. On your birthday, according to regulations, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will give you some rewards and let your children and grandchildren come in and kowtow, and that’s it. If you are in a good mood, you can just give more rewards, hold a banquet in the palace, and let your children and grandchildren come in to get together. But if you want to have a grand banquet for guests and have all the ministers and wives come in and kowtow, that is really the treatment you only get after becoming the empress dowager.
Therefore, in Prince Zhongshun's palace, it is quite exciting to see the old lady happily making a fortune in her son's territory.
Concubine An was only over fifty, but compared with Concubine Hui, she looked much older. When she saw everyone from the Jia family coming, she started shouting. After being given a seat, I looked at Ou Mengmeng and Yuan Chun, feeling a little sad. Looking at the children, they all said happily, "Oh, Mrs. Jia, I didn't expect your granddaughter to be so young."
"Oh, my wife was ill a while ago. I thought that the children were still young, so I really didn't dare to go like that. Now, I'm coming back." Ou Mengmeng hurriedly accompanied her and said with a smile.
"It's just that they are well-raised. Look at each of them. I'm afraid they will be as generous and decent as Yuan'er in the future." Concubine An looked at Yuan Chun with a busy smile. They were quite common in the palace. Finally a bit of incense.
At this moment, there are not many people who can sit with you in the inner hall. Several people whom Jia Mu could not remember at all. As soon as they were introduced, Ou Mengmeng knew that she had thought too much. In fact, letting them come on the first day was probably because there was really no one to talk to.
On the first day, there were actually very few people of Jia Mu's generation and status among the relatives. Mainly they are from the same camp. The old princess of Beijing is also alive, but can she come in?
Of course, Mrs. An also has a sister-in-law and sister in her natal family, but their status is a bit different. Can only be regarded as an old lady's family. It would be very ugly to actually announce the list.
The princess was not an ordinary person, so she knew that not many people in the palace could look up to the old concubine because she was from a very poor background. If he didn't have a son, and his son was on the right team, who would care about celebrating his birthday? But she didn't dare to say this to the old lady, so she just took the list and asked if there was anyone she wanted to see. The old lady thought it would be good, so she just called in to talk.
The old concubine remembered that Princess Zhongshun had mentioned to her before that the Zhang family intended to propose marriage to the Jia family and was waiting for a good time. The family was ready. That's why I went out of my way to give the Jia family this dignity this time. But at that time, it was not decided yet for the Jia family to come on the first day.
After thinking about who Mrs. An could know, she decided to meet the old lady of the Jia family. Even though he was not familiar with the old lady, he was a good person in the first generation and treated the royal children equally. When King Zhongshun was a child, he even carried her to play with. As soon as the concubine said that, King Zhongshun also remembered it. Considering that the two sons of the Jia family were not smart, but they really didn't cause trouble, he thought that since he was going to marry the second daughter-in-law's family, it would be okay to give them a little dignity. But thinking about letting those two stupid boys come over, King Zhongshun became depressed again and decided to forget it. Then the Jia family was arranged to be the first family, and the old lady was left in the old concubine's room to talk with contemporaries of concubine An's natal family. Grandma Zhang really felt that her face was bright, and she looked confident.
"Princess, Princess Changlong is here." A nanny came in to announce.
"Okay, please come quickly. From the second child's family, take your sister and the others out to play. What fun can you do with us old people?" the old lady said with a smile.
Mrs. Zhang hurriedly smiled and bowed, and took Yuanchun, Yingchun, Tanchun and Xichun out. Passing by Princess Changlong, Zhang, Yuanchun and the others hurriedly bowed sideways.
Princess Changlong saw Yuanchun, and was startled for a moment, but returned the courtesy without saying a word, and went in by herself.
"Here, please, some noble girls from the clan have already arrived, and some things for the girls to play with have been prepared in the garden." Mrs. Zhang hurriedly smiled at Yuanchun. .
"Yes!" Yuan Chun hurriedly held Xichun's hand and followed Zhang to the garden. The two chatted casually.
Zhang was twenty-five or six years old. Although her birth disappointed her mother, she was the eldest daughter after all, and she was also the first girl in the family. Even her eccentric grandfather thought she was quite precious. Very happy. Therefore, she has a very cheerful temperament.
In the Prince's Palace of Huaishan County, she took a serious look at Yuanchun. She really felt that her mother and aunt had really improved their vision this time. Before, they only thought that their temperament had improved. The problem was, she didn't realize until she arrived at the Prince's Palace that she Second daughter-in-law, there are really too many things to learn.
The same goes for Miss Zhang Er in the Huaishan County Prince's Mansion. It was really the old Princess who taught her from scratch, but fortunately, she chose them because she thought they had a great temperament.
They had no control over the three wives in the eldest house, but Zhang Zhen was his younger brother and the eldest daughter-in-law of their house, so they really couldn't make any more trouble. So when they heard that a female historian was chosen to leave the palace, the sisters raised their hands and feet and agreed without even seeing it. A woman who can stay in the palace for five years and escape unscathed must be so strong. She must be snatched back.
When she met him for the first time at the Huaishan County Prince's Mansion, she thought it was really great, better than she imagined, really beautiful and smart. This time she brought the children. She also has two sons and a daughter. The youngest daughter is about the same age as Xichun. Watching with Yuanchun, let these noble ladies play together. The difference between Jia's goddaughter was immediately apparent.
Let’s talk about the girls from the old concubine’s family.
But looking at Aunt Tao and Aunt Che next to them, no one said anything. Even the daughter of a concubine in Prince Zhongshun's palace was not treated like this. I heard that the old lady went to the palace to beg for these two in person. Having these two people is enough to make up for the shortcomings of the three people.
