Chapter 169 Reward
By the time Lin Yuanqiu returned to Dong'an Street in sweat, it was almost the end of Shenshi.
Logically speaking, this point should have been paid off, but Lin Yuanqiu looked from a distance and found that there seemed to be a lot of people standing in the entrance hall of the Hanlin Academy.
When they got closer, they saw that it was Gu Ping and Zhang Qingyuan. By the way, Ding Dejin was also there.
Guard Han was the first to see Lin Yuanqiu coming back. He was a little excited and couldn't help shouting, "Mr. Lin, you are back!"
When the others heard this, they hurriedly looked on the street. Sure enough, the person who was walking towards this direction unhurriedly could be someone other than Lin Xiuman.
Gu Ping stepped forward quickly, first walked around Lin Yuanqiu, and then looked up and down the official robe, especially the buttocks. He was relieved when he found that everything was clean.
Well, it looks like I didn't get hit.
Zhang Qingyuan and Han Shicheng were also relieved. They thought that Lin Xiuzuan would definitely be punished today, but it seemed that the Holy Emperor was quite kind.
But when Ding Dejin saw that nothing happened, he raised his feet and walked out, saying, "Let's go."
Then he walked to the carriage on the other side of the road, ready to go home.
Then came Gu Ping and the others. They all waved to Lin Yuanqiu and walked out of the hall. Then they all went home either by carriage or on foot.
Lin Yuanqiu suddenly realized that these people were worried about him and were waiting for his return.
Lin Yuanqiu was a little moved. Sure enough, the feelings of the same year are different.
However, not everyone waiting for him cares.
For example, Yang Shijiao and Hu Shijiao, the bachelors, came out right now.
If it were normal, Yang and Hu would definitely leave faster than anyone else as soon as the point of dispersion was reached.
But today, the groom in their mansion had already been waiting at the door with his carriage, but these two people specially went to Fang Zhangyuan. He said he wanted to discuss the article with Fang Zhangyuan, but after hearing a noise at the door, he walked out quickly.
But when the two of them saw that Lin Xiuzuan was unscathed and still smiling and smiling, they were stunned. Didn't the Holy Master wait for half an hour? It seemed like nothing happened.
Yang Yan couldn't help but ask, "Lin Xiuzhan, are you okay?"
"Yes, Mr. Lin, are you okay?" Hu Shidao couldn't help but wonder.
"It's alright."
Lin Yuanqiu shook his head, what could happen to him.
Also, the look of regret in the eyes of these two people was too obvious.
It is said that you should not have the intention to harm others, and you should not have the intention to guard against others. Lin Yuanqiu felt that he should be more vigilant when facing these two people in the future.
Before Yang and Hu could recover from their daze, Fang Zhangyuan walked out quickly.
After seeing that there was nothing wrong with Lin Xiuzuan except that he was a little hot, the word "sure enough" rose in Fang Zhangyuan's heart again.
As expected, Lin Xiuzuan has the ability to get himself out of trouble, and his future life is to be feared.
…
Zhong family.
Not long after Eunuch Wu left.
Outside the originally quiet gate, firecrackers were being set off. These firecrackers were bought by the Zhong brothers at the grocery store temporarily.
Such a big happy event must be lively and lively. If it weren't for the curfew in another hour, the brothers would have set off firecrackers every half hour, for no other reason than to arrange a good marriage for their little sister.
You see, before they even entered the husband's house, their sister had the honor of being her fiancé. You know, this is a reward from the Holy One.
At this time, in the hall, Zhong Rongzheng was full of joy, recounting to several concubines the scene when the rewards had just been delivered.
To be honest, after living for more than forty years, this was the first time that he showed such emotions. The reason is probably because I never thought that my family would have such a glorious day.
It is said that when the old uncle separated the families of several concubines, he specially arranged their houses in the same alley. Therefore, when Eunuch Wu delivered the reward just now, the brothers who heard the news quickly gathered over.
Corresponding to the joy of the four brothers, there were the four sisters-in-law who were surrounded by silk and satin and were full of praise.
"The gift given by the emperor is really extraordinary. Look at the color, how beautiful it is."
"I said earlier that Yurouding is blessed."
In the backyard.
Zhong Yurou was putting stitches on the uppers of the shoes that she had packed in. She used a cable stitch method, and it was a small stitch type. It looked like the stitches were even and dense. At first glance, it seems that he is good at needlework.
In the basket beside her is another ready-made shoe, a men's open style.
These shoes are made for Brother Lin.
When accepting the gift, the man sent the measurements, not only for shoes, but also for clothes and pantyhose.
Seeing the smile in the young lady's eyes and her appearance of being in a good mood, Liu Ye couldn't help but smile and said, "Miss, when I went to the front yard just now, I saw those silk and satin gifts given by the Holy One. There were more than ten pieces. Look, my servant. There are also a few bright red horses among them, which are perfect for making your wedding dress. I think the Holy One knew that the lady was getting married soon, so he picked them specially."
"Don't say this nonsense."
Zhong Yurou stopped her with a solemn voice, "The reward was naturally ordered by the Holy One. How could you pick the materials yourself? You can't say this again, otherwise someone with a heart will listen to it and then spread it to the outside world. To you My aunt is not good, do you know that?"
If Brother Lin's colleagues find out by then, they will definitely say that Brother Lin is arrogant because of his favor.
Liu Ye also knew that she had said the wrong thing and hurriedly responded, "Yes, miss, I will definitely pay more attention in the future."
Today was also because she was too happy, so she lost her mind when talking, and she would definitely not do it again in the future.
Zhong Yurou nodded, not making a fuss out of a molehill. Although she didn't understand official matters, Zhong Yurou still knew that people's words are formidable and everyone's opinions are worth mentioning. Today, her family received a reward from the Holy Spirit because of Brother Lin, and tomorrow this matter will definitely be spread, so she still needs to be careful.
Thinking of this, when Zhong Yurou was preparing to have dinner later, she talked to her father, mother, brother and sister-in-law, but it was obviously a good thing, but in the end it affected Brother Lin.
Zhong Rong is not a brainless person, he was too excited just now. But after his brothers and sisters-in-law left, he thought of this, and then remembered what his father did when Uncle Zhongyong's house received a gift from the Holy Spirit. Zhong Rong immediately decided that he was going to refuse visitors to his home starting from tomorrow.
And he himself tried not to go outside.
As for Jin'an and Jinhua, they must be told not to talk to others about their family affairs while on duty.
By the way, I will definitely go to my in-laws' place tomorrow, and I will always express my gratitude to them.
…
And here, after returning home, Lin Yuanqiu did not mention the matter of going to the palace to meet the saint again today, so as not to worry everyone all the time. Especially Wu, he is someone who can't sleep well if he has the slightest worry.
After dinner, while the whole family was there, Lin Yuanqiu told everyone that he had paid a deposit today and planned to buy another village.
He also made it clear that his original intention of buying this Zhuangzi was that Chunyan and Chuncao could go there for confinement.
Therefore, among everyone present, Zhou Zixu and Wang Wenchang were the ones who reacted the fastest.
When the two of them heard that Zhuangzi was cool and quiet, they immediately handed over their hands to Lin Yuanqiu and thanked him, "Thank you, uncle, for your care!"
Since Chunyan entered labor, Zhou Zixu went to the teaching assistant and the chief of the animal husbandry to go through the formalities for day schooling. Anyway, it's not far from the Imperial College, so it's quite convenient to go back and forth every day. The most important thing is that Zhou Zixu can feel more at ease by being able to stay by his wife's side every day.
"Yuanqiu, is Zhuangzi far from the city?"
What Feng was thinking was that if it was too far away, it would be inconvenient for Yan'er and Cao'er to go there. After all, people who had just given birth couldn't withstand the long journey.
Lin Yuanqiu naturally knew what Feng meant, so he said, "Mom, don't worry, Zhuangzi is right there in Panzhu Village. It only took my son two-quarters of an hour to ride there. If you take a carriage, you can get there in half an hour at most." .”
After saying that, Lin Yuanqiu turned around and said to Lao Lintou and Wu, "Master, Grandma, my grandson went over to see it today. The trees on the mountain are lush and green, and it is indeed cooler than here. So, grandson thought, Grandma and grandpa should go and live there for a while. All the furniture in the house over there is ready-made. If you go there, you only need to bring a change of clothes and bedding."
When Lin Sanzhu heard this, he nodded repeatedly, "Father, mother, and son think Yuan Qiu's idea is a good one. I think it's better to wait for Chunyan and Chuncao to have a baby, and then we can all go and live there for a while. Look at Mo Xuan and the others, their necks are I have prickly heat on my forehead. Besides, it’s cooler over there, so I can relax while doing embroidery work.”
Upon hearing this, Gao Cui, Qin Hehua, Wang Yunxiang and Ding Ju immediately had more expectations in their eyes. Every time they saw the children scratching their prickly heat and complaining of itching and discomfort, how could they not feel distressed as mothers.
Wu and Lao Lintou quickly agreed. Older people always think more carefully. What the couple thought at this time was that the more people there are, the more popular they will be. And only a popular place is suitable for a frail granddaughter to have a confinement period. Otherwise, there will only be two babies and two mothers, even if there are several mothers-in-law. Son, they are also worried.
Due to the delay in entering the palace today, Lin Yuanqiu has canceled his request for leave during lunch break tomorrow. He planned to leave all the remaining matters of Zhuangzi's taking over and transfer to his father and eldest brother after the sale and purchase deed was signed.
Lin Sanzhu and Lin Yuanfeng nodded happily and promised that things would be done properly tomorrow.
As for Lin Yuansong, Lin Yuanhuai, and Lin Yuanbai, when they heard that they would take over Zhuangzi tomorrow, they naturally wanted to follow him and have a look.
Lin Dazhu and Lin Erzhu must also want to go.
As for the Zhou family, Liu family, and Feng family, there is no need to talk about it.
Even Chunyan and Chuncao, if it weren't for the fact that they couldn't move easily, they would have wanted to follow her to see the place where they would be confinement soon.
Finally, Lin Sanzhu made the final decision. After the transfer procedures are completed, we will take over Zhuangzi together.
…
On the second day, Zhong Rong came to Nanluogu Alley just before dawn.
Speaking of which, it was fortunate that he came here early, otherwise Lin Sanzhu and the others would have set off for Panzhu Village after lunch.
Seeing his in-laws coming over early in the morning, Lin Sanzhu was still a little confused about what the other party was talking about. But when Zhong Rong told the story of yesterday's gift from the Holy Spirit with a face full of joy, Lin Sanzhu was dumbfounded. How could he be rewarded again? .
Also, you bastard, why don't you tell your family about such a big happy event?
Thinking of this, Lin Sanzhu hurriedly shouted to Ping An outside the door, "Quick, quick, hurry up, buy firecrackers!"
Lin Yuanqiu naturally didn't know about the reward given to the Zhong family by the Holy One after he left the palace yesterday. Therefore, when Commander Fang asked about it, he was still a little confused.
As for Yang and Hu, after they heard that Lin Xiuzhuan had won another reward, they almost dug a hole in the ground where they rested their feet. It was said that they had been lecturing Sheng Shangjin on the history of scriptures for many years, but they had never been rewarded once. Rewards.
This is really unfair.
…
In October of golden autumn, persimmon fruits are fragrant.
Like last year, there were not many persimmons this year, but they were definitely enough to serve at the banquet.
Yes, the Lin family has no plans to make persimmon cakes from this year’s persimmons. In more than ten days, it will be the wedding day in the far autumn. It would also be a good idea to put the picked persimmons on a plate and serve them as fruit to entertain guests.
But before that, a double full moon banquet must be made for Doudou and Yuan'er.
Doudou and Yuan'er are the nicknames of Chunyan and Chuncao's sons respectively.
They both gave birth to their eldest son in August. Although their birthdays were not on the same day, Zhou Zixu and Wang Wenchang had chosen an auspicious day to host a full moon banquet together.
Even though it was a banquet, only the Qin family and the Zhong family were invited, as well as several of Zhou Zixu's classmates from the Imperial Academy.
After the full moon banquet, the day for Lin Yuanqiu's wedding soon came.
