Chapter 23
"Mingxuan, I'm fine today, call your two younger brothers, let's go play polo?" Dou Siqian called to stop Cui Mingxuan after class was over.

Although the Cui family has ethnology, it can't compare with the official school. Besides, entering the official school means half of one's foot has stepped into the officialdom.

At present, only Cui Mingxuan of the Cui family has entered the official school. Cui Mingyuan and Cui Minglang are still in the ethnology study, and they will go to the official school together next year.

"It won't work today, my aunt brought two cousins ​​home, let's do it another day." Looking at Dou Siqian with a smile, Cui Mingyuan cupped his hands at him.

"Aunt? Is it Mrs. Anyang Hou? Isn't Sister Keyun your cousin?"

After all, Dou Siqian is the first son of the Dou family, and his grandmother is the eldest princess of the dynasty.For those who can live in Shangdu, it doesn't matter how many generations they live in.

"It's not my eldest aunt, it's my little aunt. On the way we came back from Dongdu, you also met the bastard of my little uncle's family, named Shen Yunming."

After hearing what Cui Mingxuan said, Dou Siqian thought about it carefully, and matched the number, "Sure, then let's make an appointment another day, and I'll go find Mingjing and the others."

After bidding farewell to Cui Mingxuan, Dou Siqian went to the government school, and at this moment several brothers from the Pei family were coming out.

Dou Siqian yelled, and when all the brothers looked at him, he quickly walked a few steps and came to him, "Hello, elder brother, hello second brother. Ming Jing, let's go play polo?"

"Siqian, you are going to discuss marriage next year, why are you still so playful?" Pei Mingchu said with a smile, he is two years older than Dou Siqian, and he will be able to enter the court as an official after finishing the exam next year.

At the moment he is more occupied with reading than playing.

"There is no conflict between discussing relatives and playing polo. Besides, playing polo can strengthen your body. Big brother, don't bother with reading, come out and play with your brothers if you have nothing to do."

Dou Siqian smiled sheepishly, and reached out to pull Pei Mingjing's clothes. He was afraid that Pei Mingchu would talk endlessly, so he wanted to take him away quickly.

"I still have to read the book. Although I don't want to play with you, every day I..."

"Brother, I suddenly remembered what my father said before, let us go to his study after school. I guess my father has returned home by now, so let's hurry up."

The second elder brother Pei Mingli winked at Pei Mingjing and Dou Siqian, and told Pei Mingchu to go to the mansion.

"Mingli, why are you so frizzy today? Also, since father called us, why did Mingjing leave?"

The elder brother who was dragged away by the second elder brother was still chattering, while Dou Siqian pulled Pei Mingjing and walked a certain distance. He wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, feeling quite lingering.

"The kung fu of eldest brother's nagging has increased again." He couldn't imagine that if the second brother hadn't dragged the eldest brother away...

"Didn't you mean to play polo? Just the two of us?" Pei Mingjing looked around, and his eyes fell back on Dou Siqian.

"Originally, I called Mingxuan and asked him to call Mingyuan to go with Minglang. He said that his little aunt brought two cousins ​​back home, but today it won't work."

"I was thinking about finding you first, and then looking for someone else." Responding to Pei Mingjing's words, Dou Siqian was thinking about who else to turn to.

"Two cousins?"

"Yes, it's not Mrs. Anyang Hou, but his little aunt, her husband's family name is Shen." Dou Siqian answered casually, and continued to ponder.

"By the way, I remembered that I borrowed a book from Mingyuan before. It's been a while, so I should return it to him. You can walk with me." Involuntarily pulling Dou Siqian, Pei Mingjing went to Cui's house.

Dou Siqian was pulled by him, looking at his empty hand, a little dazed.

-

In Cui's mansion, after smiling and annoyed Mrs. Lu, the old lady ordered someone to bring out the gifts prepared for the two sisters.

As Lu Shi joked, it really is a good thing.

After all, the old lady is also a noble daughter from a well-established family, so of course she has a lot of good things at hand.

Knowing that the youngest daughter came back with two granddaughters, the old lady was very happy and went to the warehouse to pick them out.

But it seems that they are all dead things, even if they are priceless, they still feel that they are not worthy of their grandson.

Therefore, she asked the nun next to her to bring the dowry list, and picked out two land deeds from it as gifts for the sisters.

The good things that have been brought out now are those two land deeds.

"Mother, how did you do this? It's too precious!" Seeing it, Cui said quickly.

"This is my thing. The old lady can make decisions on her own, so what can't be done?"

There are two land deeds, one is for a Zhuangzi outside Shangdu, and the other is for a shop in Shangdu.

No matter which one, you can get a lot of money every year.

Lu Shi also saw it, but he still stood aside with a smile on his face, not even the slightest bit unhappy.

After taking the land deed from the nanny, the old lady waved at the two sisters, "These two land deeds are given to you. As for who wants which one, it's up to you."

With that said, the title deed was about to be delivered to the two sisters.

Like Cui, the two sisters also felt that the gift was too expensive, but the old lady insisted, and then Lu also persuaded, and finally the two sisters accepted the land deed.

How to distribute it is a matter of later.

"After receiving such an expensive gift from my grandmother, Yun Lan felt embarrassed to take out what she had prepared."

When she said this, everyone looked at her, Cui Shi was also a little surprised, she didn't expect that the youngest daughter also prepared a gift.

"Good boy, your grandmother will be very happy if you have this kind of heart. How can there be any difference between high and low in your heart?" Lu Shi smiled and encouraged her, Shen Yunlan gave orders, and after a while, a servant carried a box and entered the house middle.

This was when she knew that she could return to Shen's residence, she began to prepare for it.

After returning to Shen's house, as long as he was free, his hands would not stop, so he saved up such a box.

All handmade by her.

The one for the old man was a fur hat, and the one for the old lady was a forehead embroidered with auspicious patterns.In short, from the old to the young, everyone has a gift, and no one is left behind.

"Oh, why is this child so thoughtful! Look at this needle and thread, how much hardship she has endured in the Zhuangzi!" Seeing the forehead wipe delivered to her, the old lady's eyes turned red again.

Shen Yunlan's needlework is excellent, but when she does these things, she only dares to do five points, even so, according to her current age, it is good enough.

"Grandmother doesn't dislike Yunlan's rough needlework." With a shy smile, Shen Yunlan stole a look at Cui Shi and Shen Yunjin.

Cui's eye circles were also red, Shen Yunjin nodded quietly.

"Old lady, madam, the three young masters are here." Outside the house, the servant girl's reply came, and Lu Shi gave orders, and the three brothers came in from outside the house.

Seeing that most of the women in the room were wiping away their tears, I couldn't help but look at me and you, feeling a little puzzled.

When the grandchildren came, the old lady wiped her eyes, called the three brothers to come forward, and greeted Cui Shi and the two sisters.

After they all saluted, the old lady greeted again, "Brother Xuan, Brother Yuan, Brother Lang, take a look at the presents Yunlan prepared for you!"
