The nanny of the Marquis of Chengen?

Yang Haiyan and the others glanced at each other, and then she said, "That should be the Shen family's grandma, right?"

Sister Du said: "Of course, there is only one Marquis of Cheng'en mansion today. When the new emperor ascends the throne, the Empress Shen's family becomes Marquis of Cheng'en's mansion. The original Marquis of Cheng'en mansion was the emperor's family. For the Duke Cheng'en's mansion." The emperor was the direct son of the first emperor and the first empress.

If it is said that in addition to the family of four surnames and the foreign families of the four princes, there is another family that is the most powerful in the capital, it is the royal family of Cheng'en Gongfu, but the royal family has no children in the harem.

Yang Haiyan said: "I have a request, but I don't know why that mother came here."

Mrs. Qu said: "Perhaps it is the birthday of the old lady of the Hou Mansion. In half a month, the birthday of the old lady Shen will come, and many families have already received invitations."

Du Erjie said: "But the sister just returned to the capital, if the Shen family sent an invitation, wouldn't it be too..." Is the behavior of drawing too obvious? These daughters and daughters-in-law have long been reminded by Mrs. Du that the Du family is not involved in the affairs between the princes, so when their children come to kiss in the future, they must be on guard, not only their children, but also them. If they have something to do with the prince's faction, then they have to be measured in their movements.

Yang Haiyan said: "Speaking of which, because of the imperial grain plan, Shen Shizi and his teacher came to Yunxiang County and lived in the General's Mansion for a while, perhaps because of their friendship at that time."

Sister Du said, "That's possible."

After a while, the nanny came in, and they stopped.

Mammy didn't expect that there were so many people here. After she came in, she respectfully bowed to Yang Haiyanji and everyone: "This servant has seen the madam and the ladies."

Sister Du said: "If I remember correctly, the mammy is the mammy next to the prince's wife, right?"

The maid said: "Mrs. Wei has a good memory, and the servant is indeed the wife of the prince. Madam Bingyun is well. The servant came this time on the order of the wife of the prince. First of all, I want to thank General Qin for his care to the prince in Yunxiang County. Take care, the madam heard from the prince that the prince and General Qin agreed to come to the capital for a drink, and the prince is the host. The second is the old lady's birthday in half a month. This is an invitation from the Hou's mansion. I also want to take this opportunity to meet Madam Bingyun.”

Yang Haiyan smiled and said: "So that's the case, then I'll be more respectful than to obey. If there is no accident, I will definitely come to congratulate the old lady on her birthday that day."

Mother Lian stepped forward and took the invitation from the mother.

Mammy: "The slave maid is leaving."

Mother Lian said, "I'm here to see you off."

After Mammy went out, Sister Du said, "The Marquis of Chengen has been operating a lot in the past two years."

Du Erjie didn't hear about these things. Her husband was from the Hanlin Academy, the most responsible yamen, and her in-law's family was a common people's poor family and didn't interact with people in the officialdom, so she lived the most comfortable life, even if She is a prostitute in her parents' family, but the prostitutes of the Du family are comparable to the direct daughters of other families. No matter whether she is at her husband's house or going out, no one dares to look down on her, so she lives very freely in her husband's house. But she and Sister Du and her parents' family often move around, and they have heard some things about them.

Qu said, "I have heard my mother-in-law talk about this."

Naturally, Yang Haiyan didn't know, and asked curiously, "What happened to the Marquis of Cheng'en in the past two years?"

Sister Du said: "It turns out that although Empress Shen is an empress, the Shen family has no concubines in the harem, so the battles between the harem and the princes naturally have nothing to do with them, so the Shen family was very low-key at first. But after the second prince came out, there were more banquets in the Shen family, and the women of the Shen family and the women outside walked around frequently."

Yang Haiyan thought for a while: "I understand that." The second prince is the grandson of the Marquis of Cheng'en. For the sake of the second prince, they must come out and move around. Otherwise, if the first prince ascends the throne, there will be no good place for the second prince. The family is the descendant. And in the original plot of the novel, the eldest prince is a ruthless person. After all, the second prince is the person supported by the male protagonist Han Zhen, and the three views of the person supported by the male protagonist are naturally not bad. On the contrary, in order to reflect the goodness of the second prince, the first prince must be a villain.

Therefore, some things cannot be said about who is bad or who is good. After all, the good and the bad are written by the author, and it is not that some people are inherently bad.

However, for the sake of peace in the country and for his own peace, Yang Haiyan naturally hoped that the second prince would succeed him.

Sister Du sighed: "It is indeed understandable. Fortunately, it has nothing to do with us. The children of our Du family are not married, nor are they married to high families."

Second Sister Du: "It's still early for the child, and it's too early to talk about marriage."

Qu: "But whether it's a son-in-law or a daughter-in-law, you have to look early, and character is the most important thing."

When Yang Haiyan heard them talk about their son-in-law and daughter-in-law, she couldn't help laughing. In the future, when Lin Yang said her kiss, she would not be too early. At least a girl under the age of 18 would not let her son marry her, lest the girl Pregnancy prematurely is not good for your health.

However, it's too early to think about it.

Sister Du and others sat in Qin Mansion for a while, and then they were about to leave. When they went to find the children, they saw some driving, some riding small bicycles, and some playing ball. Sister Du couldn't help saying: "Sister, you have a lot of toys like this."

Second Sister Du followed: "I think this kind of car is somewhat similar to the stroller and stroller that I bought before. They are all made of wood."

Yang Haiyan didn't hide it: "I made the walking cart and baby carriage before, but the workmanship of this four-wheeled cart is relatively complicated, so it was not produced."

When Sister Du and the others heard it, they were immediately stunned.

Qu said, "Sister, you are really amazing."

Yang Haiyan said modestly: "I'm just idle and thinking." She provided the design for the stroller and the stroller. The business of opening a shop and a factory had nothing to do with her. The emperor asked someone to handle it, and she only took 10% of it. Dividends. But the 10% dividend is also a lot, after all, it was national sales at that time. But this business is only short-lived, only good for the first two years. But when I planned this with the emperor, it was not a long-term business.

"Where is blind thinking, I think the girl's brain is good." Sister Du doesn't admit blind thinking, she can figure out these ways to make money, she also wants to think blindly.

After chatting for a while, everyone took their children back. Yang Haiyan wanted to keep them for dinner, but they didn't.

It seems that the ancients did not easily eat at other people's houses.

Without the children to play with, Qin Linyang was a little bored. He pestered his mother and asked, "Mother, will my brother and sister come to play tomorrow?" A pair of big eyes looked at his mother hopefully.

Yang Haiyan said: "Brothers and sisters also have their own things to do, so they can't come to play every day."

Qin Linyang's child didn't understand: "Does the child still have something to do?"

Yang Haiyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "The child is left to play?"

Qin Linyang nodded, what else can children do besides play?

Yang Haiyan thought about it, her son has no friends of the same age, and it is really boring to be confined at home every day. Moreover, the capital is no better than Yunxiang County. The capital is too big, too chaotic, and too complicated, and she does not dare to take the children to play, for fear of accidents. "Linyang, will my mother find a friend for you?"

Qin Linyang: "What little friend?"

Yang Haiyan: "It's a little friend who is a little bit smaller than the big head."

Speaking of which, Qin Linyang's little friend and Datou are a little familiar, but they haven't played much. Qin Linyang was only born when his big head was jumping up and down. When Qin Linyang could walk and talk, he would go to a private school, and Aunt Hong gave birth to a second child later. When his big head was empty, he also looked at his younger brother.

When they came to the capital this time, Uncle Hong's family didn't come, nor would they come. The Qin family lived in Yunxiang County for three years, and they had a good foundation there. When the fields in Yunxiang County were cheap, Yang Haiyan bought a lot of land. There were several farms there. When they came, there would naturally be people there to manage them. Moreover, when he was in Yunxiang County, Uncle Hong was the steward of the general's mansion, and the farmer He was originally taking care of the matter, so this time, after seeking Uncle Hong's opinion, the family stayed in Yunxiang County to take care of the farms.

The housekeeper of the Qin Mansion in the capital promoted Kun Shi. The housekeeper and the captain of the **** team were both in charge of Kun Shi, and the big kitchen was also in charge of the Kun Shi family. In addition, Aunt Yu did not come back. Aunt Yu's daughter and granddaughter stayed in the imperial grain processing factory in Yunxiang County. Although Aunt Yu was a deed of death, Yang Haiyan understood her difficulty and let her stay there and watch together. In the imperial grain processing factory, besides Aunt Yu's loyalty to her, she can be regarded as the supervisor who stayed there, like an eyeliner.

In addition, the sons of Kun Shi's family, Kun Daying, and Meng Qiu got married. One was fourteen and the other was twelve. In Yang Haiyan's eyes, they were still junior high school students and elementary school students. Kun Daying had read books, although he didn't read any results, he later learned martial arts together with Niudan and threw them to the barracks. Meng Qiu followed Si Ya and they had also studied and studied with Nvhong, so the two of them were also compatible, so the marriage was settled.

Among the five private guards that year, Tao Shan, who was only twenty-five years old, is still unmarried. However, Tao Shan is full of "career", and he is not in a hurry about getting married.

At a quiet noon, the three Qin family members began to eat lunch.

Yang Haiyan remembered the affairs of the Marquis of Cheng'en, and said: "Master, today the Marquis of Cheng'en sent someone to invite us to attend Mrs. Hou's birthday in half a month. In this way, we should invite you in the past few days. A few people I know come over for dinner."

Qin Fang said: "When I was in Du Mansion yesterday, I woke up and mentioned that I would meet some people he knew well. If so, why don't you invite them first."

Yang Haiyan said: "It should be like this, who does the husband want to invite?"

Qin Fang thought for a while: "When I was in Yunxiang County that day, I met Shizi Shen, Lord Wei, and General Yu, and I should invite them all. When I sent gunpowder to the capital last year, I was at the command camp on the outskirts of Beijing to discuss. , I met a few people and called them all, so that I wouldn't be afraid of others' suspicion."

Yang Haiyan counted the days, they took the first step, and the rest of the people said after two days, so: "It's better to arrange it in five days."

Qin Fang: "Okay."

Yang Haiyan said again: "In this case, the house has to hire another cook. It's better to be able to cook authentic Beijing cuisine, lest they are not used to the taste we used to eat."

Qin Fang: "Listen to you."

Qin Linyang listened to his parents while eating. Although he didn't understand, he could sometimes reply, such as now: "Listen to me."

Qin Fang knocked him on the head without saying a word, which led to a protest from the child: "Bad man."

In the afternoon, Qin Fang posted a message to the people listed at noon.

Cheng'en Hou's Mansion

Mrs. Shizi raised her eyebrows when she received the post: "A post from Qin's house? It's a coincidence, we just posted today, and they will post in the afternoon." After speaking, she opened the post. It was written in the post that General Qin invited their husband and wife to wait for a few familiar friends to have dinner. Mrs. Shizi said to the servant who sent the post, "I wonder what other friends General Qin invited?"

The servant didn't hide it either: "There is also Mr. Wei Tingwei, Mr. Du Xingran, Mr. Du..." This is what Qin Fang explained before the servant came to send the post. If the other party asked, he would tell the name of the person.

Mrs. Shizi didn't ask any more questions: "Go back and tell General Qin that our husband and wife will definitely be there."

"Yes, the servant retire."

After the servants of Qin Mansion left, the mother who had previously sent messages to Qin Mansion said: "Madam, we only went to the post this morning, and the Qin Mansion came in the afternoon, then if we didn't send the post this morning, Isn't the Qin Mansion not coming to post this afternoon?"

Mrs. Shizi said: "This is not necessarily true. The Qin family came to the capital the day before yesterday, so maybe they are not ready." There is nothing that the family does not know about the Qin family's arrival in the capital yesterday. Qin Fang and his wife are famous. The place where Shang lived was in the Dufu area. Naturally, someone knew about it immediately, and then the good relations between the families spread.

However, although Qin Fang is a student of Du Ke, the official position has not yet been determined. Even if their husband and wife are famous, they are not yet worthy of being specially invited to post. Like the Marquis of Cheng'en's Mansion, it also happened to be the old lady's birthday, otherwise she wouldn't have made a special post.

Of course, men eat out in private, and that's another matter.

When Shen Lixian came back from the next duty, he was a little happy to hear his wife talk about the post: "It's a coincidence, I was thinking about when to invite General Qin to have a drink, but I didn't expect General Qin to come to the post first."

Mrs. Shizi was a little surprised. She saw that Shen Lixian's expression about Qin Fang didn't seem to be a fake, and she valued Qin Fu a little in her heart. When the prince came back, although she mentioned the matter of Yunxiang County, she also mentioned that she didn't value the Qin family. She posted a post to the Qin family today. She asked the old lady. In terms of the Du family's face, it was still Mrs. Bingyun who was the second-ranking lady specially designated by the emperor, and the Qin family should have invited them, plus this relationship with Shen Lixian. So, she posted.

Now looking at her husband's attitude, she is a little curious: "Xianggong seems to value General Qin very much."

Shen Lixian said: "The Qin family is a very down-to-earth person, not like too many people in the capital. Moreover, the emperor intends to cultivate General Qin."

The Shen family will value those who the emperor intends to cultivate, even for the second prince, the Shen family should work hard, there is no way. From the moment the second prince came back, the Shen family was destined to step into the vortex of the prince's battle, even if they didn't want to fight, but the emperor wanted them to fight.

Mrs. Shizi said: "It turns out that, Xianggong can rest assured, I know it in my heart."

Compared to the Shen family, the Wei family was a little surprised.

Wei Ting was thinking about the Qin family's post.

Whether it was because of Yang Haiyan's refusal to marry, or because of the Yang family's affairs, or because of the affairs of Aunt Yu's son-in-law, the Wei family thought that there was some conflict between them and the Qin family, and at least the two families couldn't get along. Even Wei Ting felt a little ashamed of Qin Fang in his heart. He never thought about how he could be friends with Qin Fang in the future. This was probably just a guilty conscience, but he never thought that Qin Fang would post him.

Finally, Wei Ting put away the post.

"Eldest Young Master, Master has a request."

Wei Ting was not surprised when he heard the words at the door. He just received a post from the Qin family today, and now his father sent someone to pass the message. He knew that his father knew that Qin Fang had sent him a post.

Wei Ting came to the study: "Father."

Lord Wei nodded: "The Qin family sent you a post? What did they say?"

Wei Ting said, "Qin Fang invited me to meet at Qin Mansion in five days. Does father think I should go?"

Master Wei: "Why don't you go?"

Wei Ting still has a sense of shame. After the Wei family did something like that to Qin Fang, he was really embarrassed to face Qin Fang, especially during the time in Yunxiang County, where he had a good relationship with the Qin family. of. And he also knew the reason why his father let him continue to befriend Qin Fang. Speaking of which, Wei Ting was not an indecisive person, but the shock of this incident was too great. He never thought that his father had already lined up with the Ren family, but Wei Ting didn't want to. Therefore, in terms of philosophy and future life arrangements, he is different from his father, which is why he has been contradicting.

Wei Ting sank his eyes: "I will go."

Wei Ting nodded: "I asked you to come today, there is one more thing."

Wei Ting said, "Father, please speak."

Master Wei: "You can tell me about the formula of gunpowder."

Wei Ting frowned: "The only people who know the formula of gunpowder are me and the people from the Ministry of Industry. When the people from the Ministry of Engineering arrived in the capital last year, they were arranged by the emperor. If the formula of gunpowder was leaked, the emperor would immediately think of me, and my father thought of me. ?"

Mr. Wei said: "I won't think of you. First of all, who can guarantee that the people from the Ministry of Industry have not contacted others on the way here, and have not told others about the formula? Besides, Qin Fang has come, maybe... this formula is Qin Fang leaked it, who can guarantee that he doesn't know the formula?"

Wei Ting narrowed his eyes: "Do you still want to deal with Qin Fang?"

Master Wei: "No, just give an example."

Wei Ting: "What's the use of gunpowder if it has a formula but no materials? Can you still find sulfur ore and saltpeter ore?"
