Yan Feng was so moved that his eyes turned red: "Madame Du is really kind-hearted in nature, and Wen Quan has a good home. From now on, I will give a sum of money to Du's family every year as the maintenance fee for Wen Quan. " Murong Zhining and Caisang pull started and smiled happily at each other.

The eunuchs in the imperial dining room sent me the new year's Eve dinner. Yanfeng said: "Ning'er, you can accompany your family to have the new year's Eve dinner for me. I will go to the king's palace to eat with the emperor according to the custom! I'll come back later and watch the night with you! "

Qi Shangming put on a sable fur for Yanfeng and helped him out of the courtyard of Qixiang palace.

Tu Fu Du sighed: "this palace is really impressive. The emperor really talks about rehearsal! This year's dinner, darling, more than 30 dishes, how can I finish it? "

Caisang said with a smile, "what is that? The emperor usually eats fifty or sixty dishes alone. The emperor doesn't like to be extravagant. It's already streamlined. The emperor treats the princess better than himself... "

Yin said: "my little Ning'er, it's painful! What about general chiyun? Shouldn't the princess spend the new year in the general's palace? "

Murong Zhining pulls Yin's on the table: "general, his military affairs are so busy that he can't go back to Beijing for the new year. The general's identity is the prince. It's not natural for me to celebrate the new year in the palace. "

Spring apricot and mulberry picking spread the dishes and chopsticks. Spring apricot retreated to the side hall, where there was a table of new year's dinner for the palace maids and eunuchs.

Tu Tu Fu smiled casually: "with the blessing of the princess, we can eat the rice of the emperor's family. It's a great event to go back to the neighborhood of eight townships. We du family, it's really green smoke from our ancestral graves. "

Murong Zhining politely served food for Yin Shi and Tu Tu Fu: "please don't be polite, elder brother. These are your blessings. As the saying goes: good people, not too bad luck! Elder sister Yinhua, you need to milk your baby and eat more good ones. By the way, I always have a question: why didn't my mother change her surname when she married to Du's family? "

Tu Tu Fu laughed at himself: "your adoptive mother is the head of the family. I'm just a son-in-law." When they heard the words, they all laughed happily.

Yin looked at Tu Tu lovingly: "at the beginning, my mother's family was a decent family with a bit of land. Unfortunately, Yin Hua, my younger brother, is a failure in his family because he doesn't make it. In order to support the family, my father hired your adoptive father to be his son-in-law. Your adoptive father is an orphan. He doesn't even have a name. He only has a surname of Du, and he is vicious. But I know that his heart is better than anyone else. Later, he made money to pay off the debts for Yin's family, and I naturally let him run the family. But this surname, however, has been used to it and has not been changed. "

Tu Tu Fu took a piece of fish for Yin's family: "in my life, I have no need to marry a woman like you."

Caisang asked Yin, "how is Yin Hua now? By the way, I have something else to say to my aunt, the princess helped me find my mother. "

Yin was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth: "my child, although your father doesn't make a success, it's your father after all! You can't call it by its first name. Your mother How is she doing? "

Murong Zhining chuckled: "mother, don't blame Caisang, she is not your niece. Her father, Jin Yang, was a general in chiyun army. Twenty years ago, she had a lawsuit and fled her family. When Mrs. Jin fled to hetang'ao, she was already pregnant with mulberry picking. In order to settle down in hetang'ao, she pretended to marry your brother Yin Hua. "

Yin nodded: "I said that Er Ya's mother is not like a village woman, but rather like a woman in distress of a large family. So, is your father going to ask Yin Hua about his crime? After all, he also suffered retribution, limped and lived like a beast... " Yin looked uneasily at Caisang.

Caisang stroked Yin's hand: "my mother always said to my father, thanks to your help, our mother and daughter can live in peace. My aunt is at ease. My mother is a man of old love. She said that after all, Yin Hua has taken in our mother and daughter. She won't trouble Yin's family. "

Tu Tu Fu's face was full of laughter: "you see, I said that kindness is rewarded! All the good deeds of our family are attributed to the women! "

Du Yinhua exclaimed, "my aunt is actually the family of a senior official. Our family is blessed. We are all rich people!"

Murong Zhining said with a smile, "sister Yinhua, why didn't my brother-in-law come together?"

Du Yinhua's eyes were full of tears, and Yin's teeth were gnashing. "That little white face has no conscience. Our family silver flower gave birth to children for her, but he took the money that our mother's family helped him peacefully, and started a new business outside, and raised a no three no four bitch. He is now hindering our family's strength, not daring to take concubines, but only staying out for a long time. "

Tu Tu Fu complained: "Oh, yes! You two never stop. What are you doing on such a happy day? Now our mother's family also has money. If you can support the silver flower mother and son, you can stay in the mother's home safely. Don't go back to that home! "

Murong Zhining hands a handkerchief to Du Yinhua: "a man has three wives and four concubines, and he can't be said to be bad. If he is willing to take the responsibility of supporting his family, we can't break down a family. Sister Yinhua, if there is nothing wrong with her brother-in-law, it's better to live with him! "

Yin raised Du Yinhua's sleeve: "that son-in-law is a beast. Seeing that our mother's family has money, he forces Hua'er to go home for money in three days and two ends. He takes it to mend the women raised outside and often beats Hua'er..."Wen Quan buried himself in the meal with relish, and then looked up and put in a word: "brother in law Bad... "

Caisang slaps the case: "how can my uncle watch others bully my daughter and ignore them?"

Yin said: "Er Ya, don't blame your uncle. He has a frightening appearance. He is more kind than anyone. Forget it. I've already taken the flowers home. It's just that I won't let her go back. "

Caisang said angrily, "can we be bullied at will? Auntie, we are very hard at waist now. Don't be afraid of anything. That man with no conscience will not let go of my brother a Niu when he comes back. "

Yin wiped his tears: "I'm not afraid, but we are all shameful. I can't afford to lose this man. Every time he beats flowers and comes to make trouble, we are afraid of being laughed at by people from five neighbors and eight townships. We dare not make a statement. Every time we give him money back, we can calm down. "

Murong Zhining caresses the back of Du Yinhua's hand: "silly sister, no matter how kind we are, we can't be bullied by others! Do you want to spend time with him? If you think about it, I'll let someone talk about him and make him calm down. If you don't think about it, it will be better! "

Du Yinhua said: "I can't live with him. The love between husband and wife has long been gone, but he intimidates me. If he doesn't obey, he will hurt his parents and his own children..."

Caisang spat: "I've seen this man. He looks like a dog. He has read some books. The country people all respect the scholars. Unexpectedly, there are also bad people among them. Sister Xiaohua, don't be soft hearted. Now we have the emperor to decide! "

Murong Zhining covers her mouth and smiles: "Caisang, if you have kung fu, you must be a chivalrous woman. Mother, you and your father don't have to plow in the field now. It's better to code out the land in the countryside. I'll help you find a house in Shangjing. Your family, come to live in Shangjing. "

Yin Shi waved his hand: "I can't make it. Don't make it. Your adoptive father and I are used to the life in the countryside. Most of our lives are in hetang'ao, which we can't leave for a long time. "

Du Yinhua broke into tears and smiled: "where can't my mother leave hetang'ao? But now I have an identity. When other people see my father and mother, they all have to pay homage to Yuanwai Du and Madame Du. My mother especially enjoys other people's respect! "

Yin's family nodded his head repeatedly: "my Yin's family used to be a face loving family, but your brother made me uneasy and my neighbors despised me. It's not easy to get the princess's light. The whole family is puffing up their eyebrows. I'm really respected. Ha ha ha It's a pity that your grandfather can't see it. Besides, Yin Hua's guy is a mud that can't paste on the wall at all. I have no way to take him. "

Tu Tu took Yin's hand in a deep and clear way: "you have done your duty, and don't feel guilty. If he really can't eat, we should take care of him! "

Murong Zhining said with a smile: "it's hard to leave home, but Ning'er can understand her mother. Quickly eat vegetables, pick mulberry and put some mother's favorite food in the hot pot. All do not like to eat vegetables, withdraw some to the side hall, reward spring apricot and those small eunuchs. By the way, you give each of them some silver for me. " Caisang happily took a few dishes and went to the main hall.

Yin sighed: "after a few days with your adoptive father, I thought we were living a life of immortality. I didn't expect this palace to be very rich! "

Tu Tu Fu doted on him and said, "although our little days are not rich in the palace, we are envied in all the ten li eight townships! When my son Tian comes back, let him give a breath to the silver flower, and then marry him a daughter-in-law. Even the immortals should envy our family's days! "

Yin wiped away his tears again: "my son's life is hard. He can't find a woman he likes, but he's dead again. By the way, princess, who is the key to the poor old mother and my house Ziyu? It's not natural! "

Murong Zhining sighed: "this pool looks calm, but it is full of undercurrent and vortex. People live in this world, often also by the undercurrent, involuntarily. However, mother please rest assured that time will return to the truth and result in the end. "

Yin's face was full of worry: "I'm just a village woman, and I don't know the intrigue in the palace. Otherwise, we won't stay in the palace. The princess will follow us back to hetang'ao and live a carefree life. Our family will be happy together! "

Murong Zhining said: "mother, please rest assured that I will protect myself. Shangjing is far away from hetangao, but half a day's drive, I will often visit my mother. "

At this time, Qi Shangming led several eunuchs, carrying a food box and a few exquisite big boxes of mahogany, into the Qixiang palace yard.

Qi Shangming said in a loud voice: "the emperor appreciates Qixiang Palace's" auspicious dragon and phoenix "dishes, as well as a number of annual gifts."

Murong Zhining led the people to the courtyard to receive the reward and thank you. Then he went back to the house and continued to eat the new year's Eve dinner.

Yin Shi looks at a silver plate bigger than a copper basin. In the middle lies a whole fish that she has never seen. The fish is two feet long and golden. On the fish, there are dragon claws and horns carved from carrots. Under the fish, there is a goose decorated in the shape of a Phoenix and roasted golden.

Murong Zhining used the gold spoon in the plate to scoop a scoop of fish for Yin Shi and Tu Tu Tu Fu: "Er Lao, please taste it. It's a golden sturgeon from the river to Haikou. It's very rare. Only the emperor can eat it. It's extremely rare for such a big man to grow up for at least 30 years. "Caisang entered the room and looked at the two big boxes playfully: "I'm very curious. What good things will the emperor reward the princess?"
