"Fifth sister-in-law, fifth brother will be back soon."

Time slipped away unknowingly, and late autumn in the capital seemed to arrive in an instant.

Xiao Fuyuan had finished her morning class and exercised for a while. She was sweating a little. She stood in the yard and looked up at the blue sky, listening to the pigeon whistles that came and went.

The fifth sister-in-law came over after playing swordplay in the yard, took out her handkerchief and wiped the sweat from Xiao Fuyuan's forehead.

The aunt and sister-in-law chatted.

The topic the two of them talked about was inseparable from the fifth child of the Bai family.

It has been two months since Bai Zhaomei sent the young ruler of the Rong Kingdom to the border. Lao Wu, who received a letter from me a few days ago, is already on his way back.

"Well, I'll be back soon. I'll definitely be back before fourth brother gets married." Fifth sister-in-law Cuicui still has the shyness of a newlywed bride, and a blush spreads across her face at the mention of Bai Zhaomei.

From the day when Bai Zhaomei set off to send the little country leader to the border, Cuicui counted the days until Bai Zhaomei would return every day.

Although the newlyweds separated for a while, fortunately, the whole Bai family was very kind to her. She didn't have to worry about morning and dusk or follow messy rules. She wanted to go back to her uncle's house to see her mother. The Bai family also supported her, especially her sister-in-law, who was always with her. Play somewhere.

Therefore, she was extremely satisfied with her married life.

"Don't worry, fifth sister-in-law, fifth brother will definitely come when fourth brother gets married." Xiao Fuyuan said firmly.

Cuicui would not take it seriously if others said this, but if her sister-in-law said this, it must be true.

Cuicui pursed her lips and smiled.

The Bai family is preparing for the second happy event since arriving in the capital - the marriage of the fourth child and Princess Yun'an.

The specific wedding date has been announced, it will be in ten days.

As early as after the wedding of the fifth child, the Bai family began to be busy with the marriage of the fourth child and the princess.

This is not to say that the Bai family treats the marriage of the fourth and fifth children favorably, but that Princess Yun'an is a princess who represents the dignity of the royal family after all, and the etiquette before various princesses get married is very cumbersome.

In addition, the Queen Mother's great love for Princess Yun'an was the first happy event for the royal family in so many years. Therefore, the Queen Mother and the Emperor paid special attention to it, and even increased the dowry by 30% from the original basis.

The royal family attaches great importance to Princess Yun'an's marriage, so the Bai family can only cooperate to avoid being criticized for being disrespectful to the princess.

"Cui Cui, come here."

Mrs. Zhen saw her youngest daughter and her fifth daughter-in-law talking and laughing in the yard, and waved to Cuicui.

Cuicui and Xiao Fuyuan came to Zhen's room together.

"...Although our family is not divided, each brother and your sister have their own properties. This is what the family distributes to the fifth child. You can take it." Mrs. Zhen handed a box to Cuicui.

Cuicui opened it and saw that inside was the shop and shipping paperwork.

After a moment of shock, Cuicui pushed to Zhen's side and said, "Mom, I don't want it."

"These things belong to you originally. The fifth brother can't take care of them outside, so naturally they are kept by you. Your brothers' respective properties are also kept by your elder sister-in-law, second sister-in-law and third sister-in-law. Your sister is still young now. Wait for her to grow up. Naturally, I will keep it myself." Zhen said with a smile.

"In the future, you and the fifth child will have to open an account and live on their own. Even though your mother is taking care of you, you still have to take care of the whole family. Don't worry about what I say. The fourth child and the princess will also have to live alone in the future. of."

Cuicui felt moved after hearing this.

She likes the family atmosphere of the Bai family. Although they are a big family, the atmosphere is harmonious. From the mother-in-law to the mother-in-law, they all treat their daughter-in-law as one of their own. The second sister-in-law is a bit out of tune. In short, the sisters-in-law are harmonious. The most important thing is that the Bai family does not allow any concubine.

Even if there are no children to adopt, concubines are not allowed.

This is the least common.

Cuicui wanted to live a lively life with the whole Bai family.

But she also has a divorced mother who lives at her uncle's house. Her uncle and aunt treat her very well, but it's not her own house anyway, so she always holds her breath in mind.

She wanted to give her mother a home.

At that time, the Bai family promised their uncle Liu Hong that after they got married, Bai Zhaomei and Cuicui would separate and live alone, and Bai Zhaomei would provide for her mother-in-law until she died. After getting married, Bai Zhaomei went to the border, so no one mentioned it.

Old Mrs. Bai regretted a little. She always felt that sending her fifth son out to live alone with her mother-in-law would cause the Bai family to lose a son.

Mrs. Zhen was open-minded.

The Bai family has no shortage of sons, and besides, she doesn't believe that Bai Zhaomei would marry a daughter-in-law and forget her mother, so she specially recruited Cuicui to make the matter clear before the fourth child got married, just to ease Cuicui's heart.

After Cuicui heard this, she was moved to tears.

"Mom, I..." Cuicui choked as soon as she opened her mouth.

What kind of luck did she have to meet such a good family?

"I'm not asking you to leave. The emperor gave me the house that I gave to Lao Wu. You have to clean it up some other day. When Lao Wu comes back, you can choose an auspicious day to move in." Zhen said with a smile.

Cuicui wiped her eyes and said, "I can't bear to leave my sister."

This is true.

My sister-in-law is so cute, who wants to be separated from her, even though the two houses are not far apart.

Cuicui also has another reason why she is shy to speak. She wants to have a daughter as cute as her sister-in-law.

It is said that the men of the Bai family are not as lucky as their father-in-law. What if she imagines this happening?

What if recruiting girls for nothing is the father-in-law's fate.

Maybe if I stay with my sister-in-law for a long time, I can really give birth to a daughter as cute as my sister-in-law.

"Of course I can't bear to leave my mother, grandma, and sisters-in-law," Cuicui said.

Xiao Fuyuan thrust the box containing the land deed shares into Cuicui's arms and said, "Fifth sister-in-law, please take this first."

"Fifth sister-in-law can come to our house every day. Anyway, the house given by the emperor is very close to our home." Xiao Fuyuan said.

Cuicui smiled gratefully at Xiao Fuyuan.

"Mom, I really don't want to leave now. You see, the house is temporarily tidied up. Let my mother live in it first. When I have a child in the future..." Cuicui mentioned the child, blushed, and continued, "We will move in when new people come in."

Mrs. Zhen thought for a while and nodded: "That's fine. Anyway, the house belongs to you, so you can do whatever you want."

On the first day when the fourth child got married, the fifth child of the Bai family rushed back from the border.

At the same time, cousin Du Nian escorted Aunt Zhang and Zhen Jiqiu back to Shenshu Village to settle them down before returning to the capital.

Along with Du Nian came several large carts of sweet potatoes.

Every household in Shenshu Village had a bumper harvest of sweet potatoes, which shocked the entire Huaicheng.

After the news reached the capital, the emperor was very happy. He couldn't wait to see the sweet potatoes.

As soon as the sweet potatoes arrived in the capital, Bai Dazhuang personally escorted them to the palace.

Seeing the round sweet potatoes, the whole court was equally shocked.

If such a vine can produce so many crops, how many people must be fed?

I heard that Princess Furong saw this sweet potato in a book, Bai Sanzhuang found it in Nanyang, and Bai Dazhuang cultivated it.

The Bai family has really made an indelible contribution to the entire Xia Kingdom.

So, on the day when the fourth child of the Bai family got married, the emperor's edict commending the Bai family was also sent to the Bai family's door.

The emperor's move added color to the wedding of the fourth son of the Bai family and Princess Yun'an.

Therefore, the second happy event held by the Bai family after entering Beijing became even more grand.
