Twin Brocade

Chapter 205 New Year's Eve
Fang Jinhui's heart was filled with sweetness when Gong Wenjue made such a warm and bold confession.Glancing at him secretly, she fell into a pair of burning and affectionate eyes, which made her turn her head away in shame.

Which girl is not pregnant?
Fang Jinhui, who grew up watching his parents, Qin Se and Ming, had no expectations of entering the palace.I also want to be like a mother, looking for a lover who can know each other and stay together.At the age of seeing each other for marriage, although she is young and ignorant, she still sketches the appearance of her future husband-in-law in her heart in the dead of night.

It turns out that the feeling of being liked by someone is so beautiful.

Young men and women stand under the plum tree, their pulses are silent but they are secretly in love.The wind here is colder than in the capital, but the two of them didn't realize it and forgot the time.

Both sides are very satisfied with this match.

Fang Shuyu approved the marriage and told Fang Mu about it.If the marriage could make the originally neutral Gong family slightly lean towards Zhu Zihou's faction, the Fang family would have made a great contribution.Naturally, Fang Mu would not object to such a good thing.

Si Lansheng sent someone to reply to Mrs. Gong, and only said, "Brother Jue's article is good, and the master likes it very much. If he has free time, he can come to explain the scriptures."

As a woman, the Fang family naturally had to be more reserved, and Mrs. Gong could understand the meaning behind these words.

It's just that the New Year is coming soon, and in the Gaoman Dynasty there is a wedding custom of "no marriage in the first month, no appointment in the twelfth month". Unless it is absolutely necessary, happy events will be avoided during these two months.

Because of this, the marriage between Qiao Tongxuan and Fang Ziquan was only a verbal agreement.For this marriage right now, both Fang and Gong have reached a tacit agreement, so they are not in a hurry.It was not until February that they all began to follow the three books and six rituals.

Because it involves next year's general election, in order to avoid complications, several companies have not disclosed it to the outside world.Except for the master who is the director of the family, no one who has nothing to do with it knows, let alone people outside.

For Fang's family, there is one more Gong Wenjue who often comes to consult articles.As a student of the younger generation, he came to ask Fang Shuyu about classics, righteousness and policy theory, and by the way, when he greeted Mrs. Fang, he took a few more glances at Fang Jinhui.

And Fang Ziquan, under the arrangement of Si Lansheng, asked him to come to the Qiao family to give two new year gifts.Mrs. Qiao's family was very happy every time when she saw him coming, and lent him several lonely copies and copybooks, saying that she was not in a hurry to return them.

Fang Ziquan got this rare book and felt like a treasure.When I returned to Fangfu, I couldn't wait to study it, and I didn't bother to find out the reason behind it.When Si Lansheng found out about this, he secretly sighed "poor parents in the world", and his heart for Mrs. Qiao plotting against her gradually faded a bit.

December [-]th was Fang Jinshu's tenth birthday.At this time of the old year, she spent time in the Jingyi nunnery and received various gifts from relatives and friends.But this year, in order to make up for last year's regret, Si Lansheng made a little arrangement for her.

After school, the Wu family sisters, Qiao Tongxuan and others who had always been friends with Fang Jinshu came to Fang's house directly.They set up two tables in a small hall in Cuiwei Courtyard, invited the sisters of the Fang family together, and celebrated a lively birthday.

This was Fang Jinshu's first time living at home since his rebirth.Not only with the sisters, but also her cousins ​​and cousins ​​all followed the gift one after another, and Hao Junmo gave another seal carved by himself.

Between the busy schedule, it was New Year's Eve.

On this day, the morning market in Luoyang City was extremely lively.In order to welcome the New Year, every household has to buy enough vegetables and rice noodles for several days, and the market is crowded with people.

After noon, the shops on the street closed one after another to thank customers, and the shopkeepers had to go home for reunion.The flow of people on the street suddenly decreased a lot, only the children were not afraid of the severe cold, playing and playing on the street.

The sporadic sound of firecrackers, the red lanterns hanging under the eaves of every household, and the New Year pictures pasted on the doors together constitute the taste of the New Year.

"Girl, the eldest lady said, you can go directly to the Chuihuamen." Fangxin entered the door and said.

Fang Jinshu nodded, straightened her hair in front of the mirror, Fang Fei put a cloak on her to keep out the cold, and walked towards the hanging flower door.

Every year on New Year's Eve, all family members of officials with rank four or above have to enter the palace for a pilgrimage and receive a New Year's Eve banquet.The late emperor was merciful and changed the New Year's Eve banquet to noon to give the officials a time to reunite for dinner. The current emperor has also continued this practice.

At this time, when Mrs. Fang came back from the palace, all the juniors in the family went to greet her.

Not long after arriving at the Chuihua Gate, Mrs. Fang's soft sedan chair was carried over.Si Lansheng personally stepped forward and helped Mrs. Fang out of the sedan chair.

"Greetings to grandma." As the eldest son and grandson of the Fang family, Fang Ziquan brought his grandchildren forward to salute.

"Mother just came back from the palace, she must be a little tired, how about going back to rest?" Fang Shuyu stepped forward and asked.

Mrs. Fang is wearing an imperial gown today, which weighs heavily from head to toe.She was in good spirits, but after all, she felt tired after getting old, so she nodded.

"It's all gone, let your grandmother have a good rest, and then go to Ci'an Hall in Youshi." Fang Shuyu said.

"Yes." Everyone agreed in unison.After Si Lansheng helped Mrs. Fang into a soft bag and left, everyone dispersed.

At the time of You, the masters of the Fang family gathered in the Ci'an Hall, chatting lively.

Mrs. Fang and Fang Mu took the main seat, and Pang Shi and Fang Zhe sat at the head of Mrs. Fang.Further down, Fang Shuyu and Fang Shufeng sat on the left, and Youshi and Fang Shuren sat on the right.

Seeing the children and grandchildren gathered together, Fang Mu smiled with his beard, very pleased.His official position in this life may be the peak of the fourth-rank servant, but the Fang family is thriving!
Thinking that after the Chinese New Year, he would be able to find an opportunity to rectify the name of the Fang family and win the qualifications for Fang Shuyu to make imperial edicts, his heart was burning.

And Pang Shi glanced at You Shi, then thought of Fang Shucai who was far away in Weizhou, his eyes darkened.He was not even allowed to reunite during the Chinese New Year. I don't know how he was doing there. Did the people in his family skip the New Year gifts he sent?

Her eyes glanced over Youshi, and focused on Fang Shuren.Since Chongxi, his body has been getting better day by day, and today he was able to come here for a new year.And Qu's is also a good-natured person, he is obedient to himself and serves Fang Shuren with all his heart.

Fang Mudi sat behind Qu's somewhat awkwardly. This was the first time she appeared on New Year's Eve. In previous years, Pang would not call her at all. She only had a seat in the back row when worshiping ancestors.

Fang Jinpei and Fang Jinwei are just granddaughters, sitting at the back.Seeing that the elders were talking, Fang Jinpei grabbed a handful of peeled almonds and ate them slowly, then whispered to Fang Jinwei, "Sister, have you heard about the young master of the Gong family?"
