Red makeup against the world

Chapter 548
Sun Zhitao turned his back to the gate of the Liu Mansion, with his hands behind his back, and let out a sigh of relief.

Mr. Liu deliberately broke the matter in front of the emperor, just to put pressure on him.If he dared to refuse, wouldn't that mean Master Liu committed the crime of deceiving the emperor?
Mr. Liu is in his prime, and he can hold the position of Minister of the Ministry of Officials for at least ten years.Ten years later, it is very likely that he will become a bachelor and compete for the position of prime minister.If I take Master Liu's kindness into consideration, even if I am the number one scholar in the new discipline, it will be difficult for me to have a bright future.

He has made up his mind that if he wants to realize the political ideals and ambitions he promised to her, he cannot stop here.As for the wife, as long as it's not her, it doesn't matter who you marry?Although this is a bit sorry for the Miss Liu family who has never met, but after getting married, I will give her enough respect.

What followed were countless banquets that could not be avoided. Since he wanted to take the official career, these banquets were the best time to establish his own power.

……

Except for Chunwei, there are many happy events this spring.

The civil marriages that were delayed due to last year's war were postponed until this spring.Every now and then, you can see the welcome team with drums and gongs.

Liu Qiran got his wish and married Tu Manzhen. After they got married, the two got along very well.It was as if Liu Qiran had changed, every day besides going to the Ministry of Rites, he would go home to accompany his wife.

The Zhu family's wedding team also arrived in the city, and held a lively wedding. Xu Wenmin lifted his hijab and looked at Zhu Yushan who was shy, as if he had passed away.

……

Spring goes to summer, and with the first rain in early autumn, people realize that autumn has come quietly.In a blink of an eye, it was the day when Xu Wanzhen, Xu Wenmin, and Xu Wenyu were taking off clothes for their mother.

The current Xu family is not what it used to be.

The silk fan and silk flower business is centered in the capital city and radiates to various state capitals. The new models launched every season are the objects that noble ladies scramble to buy.There are even special limited editions, each state only has two pieces, and any wife who gets it can show it off for a long time.This is Mr. Ning's idea to Xu Wenmin. It is nothing more than referring to modern luxury goods to meet the unique needs of the upper class.

The caravan, in partnership with the Qian family, already has more than a dozen branches. In addition to Quangaomang, it has also traveled to Khitan, Tubo, and the Western Regions.

Xu Ji clothing has become the best clothing in the hearts of ordinary people.Every household has one or two pieces, which are worn when going out to visit friends and have a banquet.

The time-honored Jinxiuji, which mainly deals in high-end silk fabrics, has reopened in Henan, Guannei and Hebei.

Baicaowei, in addition to the main store in Beijing, has opened more than ten branches.Baicaotang has become the largest medical clinic in central Beijing. Taking this opportunity, Xu Wenmin negotiated with Su Liangzhi to open the medicine shop all the way to Changzhou.Su Liangzhi and Princess Chunhe only spend half a year in Beijing, and spend the rest of the time wandering around.

The Xu family has officially established a firm foothold in Beijing, and their wealth far exceeds that in Suzhou, and there is Empress Dowager Xiao backing them up.

Therefore, as early as the beginning of the year, Xu Changzong discussed with Mrs. Xu to move their ancestral grave to the suburbs of Beijing, bought two houses next door, expanded the garden, and built the ancestral hall.

I sent a letter to Xu Changrong, who was about to expire, and Xu Changrong also agreed.The situation of the Xu family is very good. He has been evaluated as outstanding for three consecutive years in his tenure. He has a teacher to help him when he returns to Beijing. It is not difficult to find a teacher in Beijing.The chance of returning to Suzhou is indeed running out.

After the two of them discussed it, the matter was settled.The third house was separated as early as the sixth year of Qinglong, and because of Mrs. Xu's foresight, she sold the property to pay the family money, and signed a contract. Now, no one can interfere with the affairs of their house.

So, at the end of summer, Xu Changzong asked for leave, Xu Wenmin arranged a business, and went to Suzhou to preside over the relocation of the ancestral grave.Mrs. Xu also insisted on going, she would go to the old house to have a look, and then personally welcome Mrs. Xu's coffin to Beijing.

In the Guangren Temple in Suzhou, I participated in the water and land. I invited eminent monks to do it, and Buddhist disciples escorted me all the way. For the comfort of the ancestors, the Xu family spared no expense on this.

In early autumn, the coffins of the ancestors, Mrs. Xu, and Mrs. Xu were all moved to the family property newly purchased by the Xu family in the eastern suburbs.In the family property, there are family fields, ancestral graves, and a place for future ethnology.The tablets of the ancestors were placed in the ancestral temple in Beijing.

After settling in, the Xu family did a water and land ashram in Dabei Temple for 49 days, praying for the ancestors, and holding the ceremony of removing clothes.After this day, Xu Wenmin, Xu Wanzhen, and Xu Wenyu no longer need to be restrained and can wear bright clothes.

Xu's courtyard has expanded a lot, but Xu Wanzhen's small courtyard has not been moved, it is exactly the same as two years ago.

With tears in her eyes, Sangzi changed Xu Wanzhen into a lake-blue satin dress with a hundred butterfly makeup, choked up and said, "Miss, madam has been gone for three years, you should wake up too."

In the room, Madam Zheng, Caisi, Qingluo, and Qingmai were all silent, they had never met Mrs. Xu, and let other servants mention that she is a beautiful woman.

Mrs. Xu summoned Xu Changzong to discuss with him about remarrying his step-wife.Keeping the system was originally a matter for children. Xu Changzong guarded Su Zhiqing for three years. In this era, it is already deeply affectionate.

Mrs. Xu didn't mention it before, just because the guarding time has not yet come, and Xu Changzong himself didn't mean it.

But Xu Changzong shook his head: "Mother, my son just wants to be a good job in the Brocade Workshop. The children are all grown up, and I don't want these things to disturb Qingjing. Wen Min is promising, and there are successors in the Xu family. In charge of the matter of Zhongfei, Wen Min The daughter-in-law has done a good job, and the mother can also enjoy the happiness."

He thought very clearly that he had two sons, and there was no shortage of heirs.Except that Wanzhen is still unconscious, he is very satisfied with the current Xu family.After going through prison, nothing is more important than your loved ones.

If you really want to continue, with a wife, you will inevitably give birth to an heir, and it will involve family property disputes.Xu Wenmin worked hard to earn this huge family business. Xu Wanzhen and Xu Wenyu naturally have a share, but the new wife's children are not qualified.

In this case, it is better not to continue the string.What's more, although Mrs. Zhu is a bit of a bookworm, he is generous and can make people obey in the host, which is enough.

But after all, Mrs. Xu loves her son dearly: "At your age, it's better to have someone around to serve you. In this way, take a daughter from an innocent family as a concubine to take care of your daily life."

Xu Changzong thought for a while, then nodded.

The Xu family wanted to take a concubine, and the matchmaker almost stepped down the threshold.Mrs. Xu made the decision, picked a woman with an innocence and a gentle temperament, and found a lucky day to carry her into Xu's house for Aunt Song.

On the second day after the service was removed, the official media invited by the Duke of Zhongguo came to the door to accept the lottery, and dozens of loads of gifts behind him gave the Xu family enough face.

　Unknowingly, it has been 19 days, I really didn't expect that I could last for so long ^_^
