Chapter 8
In the next few days, nothing happened. Both Yuan Wenshao and Hua Lan were newlyweds, so they couldn't help kissing each other.

Even Mrs. Yuan often called Hualan to fight in the past. This was a matter of course in that era, and Yuan Wenshao didn't want to interfere too much. Sometimes she would find reasons to save Hualan, but it was not a long-term solution, so she decided to move early.

After Yuan Wenshao directly discussed with Uncle Yuan, he decided to move immediately. In fact, as the master, he didn't have much to do.

After moving, Yuan Wenshao handed over all backyard matters to Hualan, whether big or small, welcome and send. Hualan is worthy of being trained by the old lady of the Sheng family.

After the rest, it's two o'clock and one line, at home and in the military camp, and occasionally get together with a few friends to drink and drink, and the small life is very enjoyable.

That day Yuan Wenshao and Hua Lan chatted while eating, only to hear Hua Lan say:
"Officer, it's been a few days since we moved here in Chengyuan, and the rules have been adopted at home and abroad. Normally, we have to hold a housewarming party, and invite relatives and friends to come and have fun!"

"It stands to reason that it should be, but let's hold a banquet within a few days of getting married. It's not good to disturb others frequently, so you can go back to your mother's house tomorrow and ask your mother-in-law and the old lady. They are well-informed. If you have nothing to do during the day, go home and have a look, our family is a family of military generals, so we don’t have to pay too much attention, so it doesn’t matter if you go back.”

Hua Lan was happy when he heard this, but he also said:

"That's not good. If you go back to your natal family frequently to spread the word, others should say that the daughter of the Sheng family has no tutors! I understand what the officials think, and I'm very happy!"

"Okay, as long as you know it, don't be too cautious in our own house, come as you like!"

As he was talking, he suddenly heard a servant girl report that Mrs. Tai had arrived and was in the front hall. Since his mother had arrived, Yuan Wenshao and Hua Lan hurried over.

When I arrived at the front hall, I saw Mrs. Yuan sitting in the main hall, and next to her stood fourteen and five-year-old girls, wearing milky white silk gowns and a purple waistcoat, which complemented their red lips and white teeth.

Yuan Wenshao didn't watch much, so he and Hualan saluted Mrs. Yuan and said hello.

"Greetings to my lord mother!"

"Ann, you all do it!"

After the two were done, Yuan Wenshao asked:
"Is mother here today?"

"Oh, that's what happened. The family bought a few maids in the past two days. Thinking that you just moved and there were few people serving in the house, I sent you a good-colored one. It's her, and I exchanged it for cherries."

While talking, he pointed to the girl next to him, indicating that it was her.

Yuan Wenshao took a closer look at the girl, she was indeed pretty, to put it bluntly, she was prettier than his wife Hua Lan,
Of the four orchids in the Sheng family, Minglan is the prettiest, while Hualan is just above average, but I like Hualan's personality more.

In this day and age, he didn't have the mind to stick to one thing, but he was too anxious at this time. He was just newly married, which was a bit too disrespectful to Hua Lan. He was still very satisfied with this daughter-in-law.
"Mother, I'm just newly married here, so let's keep it for my elder brother. My elder brother must be very happy. Besides, my eldest son is not born here, so I don't plan to take a concubine."

Upon hearing this, Hua Lan glanced at Yuan Wenshao gratefully.

When Mrs. Yuan heard that the second child said that she would give the cherries to the eldest, the eldest was not happy. The eldest daughter-in-law is her own niece, how could she bear it, and said angrily:

"Bastard, your big brother can't do that!"

"Why not? You can give me a concubine, but not my eldest brother? He is still the eldest son of our family. Besides, the eldest brother and sister-in-law have been married for many years and only one brother is a bit weak. Let him take a few more concubines to open up branches for our Yuan family." Leave it!"

Mrs. Yuan hesitated and couldn't tell, in fact, it was because the sister-in-law was her own niece, and she just didn't want to.

Seeing his son's objection, he simply asked Hua Lan:
"Daughter-in-law, what's your opinion? You won't object to your mother-in-law's decision!"

Although Hua Lan has a straightforward personality, she was trained by the old lady after all, and replied respectfully:

"Naturally, the daughter-in-law doesn't dare to disobey her mother-in-law, but she doesn't dare disobey the wishes of the officials. It's really embarrassing."

Madam Yuan dared to beat around the bush and contradict herself when she heard that this small door came out, she was furious, she opened her mouth in a muddleheaded manner:

"Okay, Sheng Hualan, what are you? You come from a small family. How dare you contradict your mother-in-law!"

"Mother, please be careful!"

Yuan Wenshao is also a little annoyed, this mother is really out of tune, not only is this provoking the relationship between her husband and wife, there are many maids brought by the Sheng family as dowry in this hall, how can the Sheng family see their father-in-law and mother-in-law? Originally, he came from a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, with a murderous aura, but after getting married, he restrained himself. Now, when he was angry and murderous, the atmosphere in the room suddenly froze to freezing point, and everyone dared not vent their anger.

Mrs. Yuan was also frightened. She is a superstitious and confused person. In the year that her second child, Yuan Wenshao, was confiscated, she felt that Yuan Wenshao was a misfortune. Now she is also knighted, but her deep-rooted thinking still hates the second child, but she didn't expect Yuan Wenshao to become so scary now,
"you you……"

Facing Yuan Wenshao, you were speechless, Yuan Wenshao had to think about this matter quickly, and shouted directly:
"Come on, go and call Zheng Xiansong, my bodyguard!"

"Yes, my lord!"

But after a while, Xiansong came in from the bodyguard team. Xiansong was tall and thick, and his face was full of flesh and he didn't talk much, so he knelt down on one knee and saluted:
"General!"

"Well, Xiansong, I remember that some of you seem to be unmarried, right?"

"Yes, General, there are a dozen more!"

"Call them over to me!"

After Xian Song went out to call for someone, everyone in the hall understood what was going on. Hua Lan was grateful in her heart, while Cherry was pale. The eldest lady was angry and afraid, so she could only say:
"I can't, I prepared these cherries for you, how can I promise them to those soldiers!"

Yuan Wenshao replied directly:
"It's delivered to my house, and I will arrange it." Then looking at the cherry,

"Don't get me wrong. In addition to the court's salary, my soldiers will also be paid by the Earl's Mansion. When your children grow up, they want to work in the Earl's Mansion, or I can arrange one for him. They will come and stand in a while. You choose one from behind the screen outside, if you don’t choose, I’ll arrange it for you!”

It doesn't matter whether she agrees or not, she closes her eyes and rests herself, and doesn't speak anymore.
