Farmer Fubo is open for business

Chapter 174 Jie Fang Palace

"Shut up!"

Zhao Ping was so angry that he pointed at his wife and said, "You are getting more and more out of tune! You even dare to say such things? Xuan'er is just spoiled by you, and she can't even pass the imperial examination so far!"

Mrs. Wang stopped as soon as she heard this: "Why is Xuan'er spoiled by me? I think this rebellious son is the lawless one who is being indulged by you!"

Zhao Ping couldn't bear to quarrel with his wife the most, but he couldn't quarrel, so he simply pulled Zhao Yuan out.

After leaving the second-bedroom courtyard, he went straight to his father's side.

He wanted to tell his father the good news that Yuan'er was going to be a chaperone in the palace.

You must know that the official careers of his two Zhao brothers have always been tepid, and their parents are not in good health. If something goes wrong, he and his eldest brother will have to go home.

So he wanted to use this good news to cheer up his family and make his parents happy.

Mr. Zhao had never been an official in his life, but he was very interested in the career of his descendants. His eyes lit up when he learned that the most inconspicuous grandson had been selected to accompany the princes and heirs in the palace.

"This is a good thing." Mr. Zhao was also very happy. He pulled Zhao Yuan and said with a smile, "Good boy, go to the palace and get along well with others. Our Zhao family will rely on you from now on."

Zhao Yuan smiled slightly and said: "When I went back to the mansion today, the boy at the door refused to let me in. He even said that I would have to kneel at the door for five hours before I could enter. If my grandson hadn't been thinking about his grandfather and father, then I would have been Just ready to leave.”

"What? Which unruly slave dares to bully the Lord like this? Send him away quickly!"

Mr. Zhao was very angry and shouted loudly: "Come here! Call the housekeeper from the outer courtyard! I want to ask him how he does things?"

"Grandfather, there is no need to be angry. Someone must have explained this matter in this way, so those servants dared to insult me ​​like this. My grandson has nothing to ask for. He just wants to get the body deeds of my two servants, so that I will not have to go to the palace to attend classes." They were betrayed.”

Zhao Yuan said slowly: "Also, in the past few months when my grandson has been away, my monthly salary has been cut off. Thanks to the care of my boss, Prince Rui's Mansion and Zhongqin Hou's Mansion, my clothes, food and clothing are all covered." It was funded by the employer, and even being selected as a companion in the palace was also because of the employer. Grandfather and grandson did not want to see the employer being humiliated for no reason. Otherwise, the grandson would have no choice but to resign as a companion and go back to the palace to find someone to settle the score. "

Mr. Zhao was surprised: "What? The government cut off your monthly payment?"

He turned to Zhao Ping and asked: "Second brother, do you know about this?"

Zhao Ping was also confused and shook his head quickly: "My son leaves early and comes home late every day. How could he know this?"

Mr. Zhao slammed the table and shouted: "Come here! Ask the eldest daughter-in-law! How did she become the head of the family? She deducted the monthly payment of the children in the house for no reason. This is outrageous!"

A servant quickly ran to the courtyard of the mansion and asked the old man what he had said. As a result, the eldest lady immediately stood up and said, "What are these words? When did I withhold the monthly payment from the children in the house? That Zhao Yuan's monthly payment is not Does someone from the second younger brother and sister come to pick it up every time?"

The three brothers in the Zhao family did not divide their families, so most of the money earned by the first and second bedrooms was given to the public servant. Of course, it was only the salary on the surface, and the rest was kept for themselves.

The third-bedroom family has no income, and the whole family depends on the family to support themselves.

Fortunately, there are two farms in the house, otherwise we would really be unable to make ends meet.

Because of this, the eldest lady saves money when she can in front of this family, but she also doesn’t like others saying that she is deducting the money from the family.

When the servant heard this, he ran back and told the old lady what the eldest lady had said.

The old man's eyes fell on his second son, and he sneered: "Second son, I'm not telling you, your wife is getting more and more unsightly. Yuan'er is her flesh and blood, how can she be treated like an enemy?"

Zhao Ping felt a little ashamed and defended in a low voice: "She was indeed a bit harsh on Yuan'er, but it was for his own good."

"Okay! I don't want to hear this. Go to the Wang family and get Yuan'er's body deed." Mr. Zhao still remembered his grandson asking for the body deed, so he urged: "Hurry up, I'll go with you Yuan'er, let's talk for a while."

Zhao Ping had no choice but to go to his wife to get the body deed with gold and silver paintings.

Unexpectedly, the Wang family refused to take it out, and said that the two slaves were bought with their dowry money and had nothing to do with the Zhao family.

Zhao Ping could not break up with his wife, so he had to return without success.

Zhao Yuan knew that this would be the result. He said nothing and immediately left the Zhao Mansion with his two young men. No matter how the old man persuaded him, he did not stay in the manor.

After he left, Mrs. Zhao smashed a tea bowl angrily, pointed at her second son and scolded him for half an hour, ordering him to coax Zhao Yuan back to the Zhao Mansion.

He is obviously a descendant of the Zhao family, but he has to rely on other people's families for his life. If word spreads, wouldn't the Zhao family's backbone be broken?

In the early morning of the next day, Mrs. Jiang got up early and cooked a meal for Chang'an and Zhao Yuan to eat, then personally sent them to the gate of Prince Rui's Mansion.

Afterwards, Chang An boarded the carriage of the young princess, and Zhao Yuan boarded the carriage of the young prince, and drove slowly towards the imperial city.

Waiting at the gate of the imperial city until the beginning of Yinshi, the gate of the imperial city opened. Chang'an led Minghui and Zhao Yuan led Mingyang and walked into the imperial city.

They walked through the same doorway as the clan members, while the court officials went through the other doorway.

On both sides of the doorway stood a row of palace attendants holding lanterns, lighting up the courtiers and clan students.

Chang'an looked straight ahead and found several children in front of him. They were all probably the eldest or second son of the prince's palace.

The little princess's concubine brother and concubine sister were also in front, looking back at Minghui Mingyang from time to time.

A eunuch led the children to the inner academy. Chang'an found himself walking separately from Minghui and the boys and entered the Xiefang Hall next to the inner academy.

At this moment, the lights in the main hall of Xiefang are brightly lit, and the princesses and princesses are already sitting at the desks in the hall.

Chang'an took a quick look and found that most of the people dressed in gorgeous clothes were princesses and princesses, ranging in age from seven to thirteen or fourteen years old. The people sitting on their left and right were all companions selected from the families of courtiers above the fifth rank.

Minghui pulled Chang An along, and every time she passed by these princesses and princesses, she had to salute and say good morning.

The princess and the princess returned the gift, and then took their places.

Minghui was young and sat in a corner with two royal girls of about the same age. She pulled Changan to the desk next to her: "Sister Changan, sit here."

Chang'an obeyed, bowed to the two six or seven-year-old princesses, and sat down at the desk.

The two girls also had two companions. They were also about seventy, eighty or nine years old, and they looked at Chang'an curiously.

Chang'an smiled at them friendly and announced his name: "My name is Song Chang'an. Please give me your advice."

The girls also announced their names: "My name is Chen Min."

"My name is Mei Ruoyin."

"This is Princess Nanyang, and this is Princess Wenhua, the eldest princess's beloved daughter."

Princess Wenhua Xiao Yue smiled at Chang'an and said, "I know you, you are good at driving. My mother also bought three two-wheeled vehicles from your family. My brother and the prince's cousin like them very much."

Chang An smiled, and just as he was about to speak, the lady walked into the classroom, and the others quickly sat up straight.

The accompanying girls stood up and saluted the concubine. Although the princess did not stand up, she greeted the concubine.

In fact, what the girls in the palace learn is the same as what girls in the prince's mansion learn. They first learn the etiquette of dealing with others, then how to read, read the Four Books and Five Classics, the history of previous dynasties, as well as female filial piety, female commandments, female virtues, female principles, etc.

Then there were music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, scented flowers and tea, and there were also court ladies who taught them how to practice nvhong, silkworm rearing, mulberry planting, and weaving.

Even if you want to learn music and dance, you must also learn some. You don’t have to be proficient in it, but you must understand them all.
