Chapter 3282 housewarming
"Then get ready. I'll take you to the Imperial Physician's Office to sign up after the new year."
Wutou clenched his fists happily. He didn't want to study in the academy for a long time, but the aunt said that even if he went to study medicine, he should study hard. .
Zhou Man looked at Liutou and asked with a smile, "How about you?"
Liutou immediately said, "Sister-in-law, I'm still young, sir, let me continue to study."
Zhou Man nodded with a smile, "Then you should study hard, and strive to be admitted to Jinshi or Mingjing in the future."
Seeing that his mother had been talking to his two cousins and ignored them, the little boy Bai Jingxing ran over to his mother's arms, "Mother, take us out to play."
Zhou Man touched her head and smiled: "Today there will be a lot of guests at home, so I can't go out to play. Big sister, you are the master. Today, you are going to entertain the little guests with your cousins."
"Who is there?" Bai Jingxing asked enthusiastically, "Is there a little lady? I like to play with the little lady."
"Of course there are, but there are still quite a few. When the time comes, my mother will take you there."
As soon as May heard it, he turned around and went back to prepare.
When Zhou Man was holding her hand to go to the gate to pick up the guests, May brought up a small cloak, put it on the little boy Bai Jingxing, and tied the rope.
The small, pure white fox fur cloak was very similar to Zhou Man's. Standing together, the mother and daughter not only looked alike, but even looked alike.
Zhou Man looked overjoyed and couldn't help touching the fox fur, "Where did this come from, why don't I remember?"
Wuyue smiled and said, "This was made by the old lady not long ago. The little lady couldn't sit still, even if it was cold and snowing, she had to go out to play, so the old lady picked two pieces of leather and made this for the little lady. Fox fur."
"In addition to this one, there are other cloaks, one of which is red, and it is very beautiful."
Zhou Man then said: "Go and get it, one white and one red will look good, we don't want to wear the same."
Wuyue responded with a smile, turned around to get the red fox fur.
Zhou Man put it on her, then took her hand and went to stand at the gate.
The first to arrive were Bai Er and Ming Da. The two had a good relationship with Zhou Man, so they came early regardless of their high status.
As soon as he got out of the car, the little boy Bai Ruoyu in the black cloak broke free from his servant's hand and ran directly towards the little boy Bai Jingxing.
The two of them didn't know the beauty and ugliness yet, but they only thought that the other party was dressed beautifully today, so they hugged each other and praised each other, and then they went in hand in hand to play.
Bai Jingxing wanted to introduce his cousins, nephews and nieces to him, "They are all my new friends, that's fine."
Zhou Man touched her head and said, "Okay, then as the host, bring the guests in."
Mingda: "It's still early for noon. The other guests shouldn't come so early. Why don't you go in with us and have a rest?"
"It's not too early. I'll stand for a while. If I'm tired, I'll go in."
Bai Erlang stood still and said, "I'll accompany you and let Mingda bring the child in."
Mingda smiled and nodded, and led the two children in.
After a while Yin Or came, Zhou Man said: "The front yard is a little cold, there is a brazier in the back yard, you can go to the back yard."
Yang Heshu and Mrs. Yang also came early, and they brought their children with them. When these close people were welcomed in, other guests came one after another.
Zheng Shi and Zhou Lijun were waiting at the second gate, but Zhou Man wanted to stay at the gate.
No way, the guests who came today are all for Zhou Man's title of "County Lord". Bai Shan is not at home, so she can only greet them in person.
Zhou Man and Bai Erlang stood at the door, smiling as they picked up one guest after another, but she just said hello, turned around and handed it over to Chuu Lang to make arrangements.
When Cui Shangshu came, Zhou Man made the final decision in his heart, and the guests were almost all there, so the rest was handed over to Shirou Lang, and she and Bai Erlang turned around and went back.
"Among the people here today, I don't know a lot of people. Your invitations are too broad, aren't they?"
"Don't, don't you wrong me," Zhou Man said: "There are many people who didn't invite me, but they are all colleagues, so I can't turn them away when everyone arrives, right?"
Although it is said to be widely distributed, she only sends it to some people who have friendship or have to send it. There are so many people in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and it is impossible for her to send it to everyone she knows. Woolen cloth.
When Bai Erlang heard this, he gave a thumbs up and said, "It shows how favored you are now."
Zhou Man ignored him.
Bai Erlang: "Do you think Your Majesty will call someone to give gifts today?"
"No, it's just a house move, it's not a marriage, and it's not a high birthday." Zhou Man raised his hand and said, "Don't think too much."
The emperor did not send anything, but the prince did.
No one else arrived, but Eunuch Wu brought a lot of gifts over. Zhou Man, who had not yet walked to the backyard, turned around and went to pick him up from the front.
Eunuch Wu bowed and smiled: "Master Zhou, this is a gift carefully prepared for you by the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess. If you move to a new house, there must be a lack of decorations. These things are just right to be placed on the antique shelf."
The gifts were all packed in boxes. Zhou Man stretched out his hand to take the gift list and glanced at it. He tutted in his heart. Sure enough, they were all suitable for placing on the Bogu shelf. Most of them were porcelain, and some were jade.
The crown prince is really generous, but even though she just glanced at it, she could see that the things on the paper were gifts from the royal family, right?
It is likely to have the palace logo on it.
This kind of thing cannot generally be bought or sold, it can only be given away.
The Crown Prince specially gave her these things this time. Mostly, His Majesty has given too many things, and they can't fit in the East Palace, right?
Zhou Man was thinking wildly in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he handed the gift list to Jiulan behind him. Just as he was about to thank him, he saw Zhou Man trotting in from outside and whispered, "Manbao, Prince Gong has come down."
Zhou Man: "...What is he here for?"
Zhou Man, who felt that his relationship with Prince Gong was very ordinary, and even at odds with him, generously did not send invitations to Prince Gong, lest he would have to give her gifts when he didn't come.
In previous years, Princess Gong never sent an invitation to Zhou Man when she had something to do, so whether it was King Gong's birthday or a baby, Zhou Man never added any gift money.
In this case, she was naturally embarrassed to invite Prince Gong, but she didn't expect him to come uninvited.
Zhou Man glanced at Eunuch Wu, and went to the door with Zhou Man in a dazed look.
There was a carriage parked at the door, with guards and chamberlains standing on both sides of the carriage. Zhou Man looked around and Zhou Man motioned her to look at the carriage, and whispered, "It's been parked at the door, and I haven't gotten off yet."
Zhou Man: …
She could only step forward, stood beside the car and said with a smile, "Prince Gong is here, it's really full of brilliance."
The maid opened the curtain, and then King Gong and Princess Gong got off the carriage.
Prince Gong raised his chin in a mighty way and said, "Zhou Man, do you have an opinion on this king? How come even Princess Ankang has received the post, but this king has not?"
Good night
