The undercurrent and overwhelming misery in Beijing have nothing to do with Xinhu and Dalang. The two lived their lives quietly.
They are very low-key and rarely go out. In fact, there was nothing to socialize with in Beijing. All the happy events had stopped. The emperor had lost two beloved sons. Who would touch the emperor's bad luck at this time? There are families who have had a funeral, and even the funeral is very low-key, for fear that if they are not careful, they will cause trouble again.
In this heavy, depressing and uneasy atmosphere, everyone lives cautiously, for fear of being found out about something and causing a big incident. Even the crown prince and princess kept a low profile and acted calmly and did not do anything.
More than three months have passed in a flash. There was silence in the capital, and there was no trace of prosperity in the originally bustling streets and shops. There are so many people affected, and life is very difficult for everyone.
"Xiangjun, the business of the dim sum shop has dropped a lot these days, less than 60% of the usual level." The shopkeeper of the dim sum shop came over to report.
Xin Hu sighed and said: "It's okay, just leave it alone. How many people can be in the mood to eat and drink well during these days. I don't blame you for this. For the time being, reduce the output to the current level. We will gradually increase the amount in the future depending on the situation. It will also give everyone a few days of rest in turn. Daily wages will still be calculated."
The shopkeeper felt at ease and said happily: "Okay, I will go back and make arrangements now."
When Dalang came back in the evening, Xinhu talked about this matter with him. Dalang also said with emotion: "Don't say that our family's business is poor. Those places that specialize in fun are called business. They are about to close down." ¡±
"Isn't that what it should be? It's just a pain for those small meat vendors." Xin Hu sighed. Those who kill pigs and sell meat and fish are not allowed to do business, and of course no one dares to buy them. The days are too long, how should these people live?
"Even the national mourning is only for a hundred days. It has already been a hundred days, so it is too much." After finishing speaking, Dalang and Xin Hu both shook their heads. The funeral of the two princes made everyone exhausted, especially since the two died very close to each other. Adding the two together, even a hundred days of national mourning should have passed, but there was no instruction from above, so everyone had no choice but to hang around like this. On fire.
"Fortunately, our family has a lot of salted fish and cured meat. Otherwise, if we eat vegetarian food every day, we will feel like a bird in our mouth." Xin Hu said.
Of course, this is what everyone eats secretly. The kitchen doesn't dare to fry it, but steams it directly, so that the fragrance is small and not easy to come out. Even with this kind of food, the two of them didn't dare to eat too much, just to secretly improve their lives every now and then. These days are almost comparable to the days in Luwei Village.
Throughout the capital, and the suburbs of Beijing are under the scope of the emperor's eyelids, every family dares not to be big fish and meat, and life is extremely simple. As time goes by, ordinary people don't care. This is how they usually eat anyway. But those people from high-ranking families who are used to living a luxurious life can no longer stand it, and they will secretly cook some meat.
But we don¡¯t dare to blatantly steal food, otherwise, everyone else will look disheveled, and you, with a normal face, won¡¯t be able to do it. Speaking of which, there are a few people who really abide by it without seeing any trace of meat or fish, but they just hide it from outsiders. This kind of concealment and deception made Xinhu both funny and angry. I don¡¯t know what it means to do this.
So, more than half a month later, Xin Hu received a letter from Wu Shuang, saying that he was getting married. His wife is a Miao girl.
"Oh, finally someone is worried about him. I thought he would never get married in this life." Xinhu was overjoyed and quickly started to pack his things and prepare to go to Liangping to attend Wushuang's wedding. The dull atmosphere in the capital almost suffocated her to death. Just in time to go out and relax.
"Why is he thinking about getting married at his age? It's so sudden, and I haven't heard any news before." Dalang asked in surprise.
Over the years, Wushuang has been running around doing things for King Yan. He enjoys this kind of life very much. I had never heard him mention that he wanted to get a wife, have children, and start a family. It's like he just loves to live alone. It's not like no one has worried about him, but he rejected them all.
"I'm not seven or eighty years old. Why can't I get married? I'm only in my thirties." Xin Hu said with a smile. If this were placed in modern times, a man in his thirties would be a good age.
"I just thought that by the time his children grow up, he will be in his fifties or sixties." Dalang said with a smile.
"There are people in their fifties and sixties, and there are also concubines. For a man as smart and thoughtful as Wushuang, since he is getting married, the girl must be outstanding. Oh, don't talk about it yet, I really want to see it now His children must all be stunningly beautiful."?It is customary not to get married if you are under twenty. The other nephews are even younger. Which child do you think is suitable for your daughter? Furthermore, the most important thing for getting married is that the couple looks at each other. Therefore, although we are in charge of our children's marriage, their personal wishes are the most important. Also, I don¡¯t agree with getting engaged to children who are too young. It¡¯s like arranging a baby marriage and is not good for the children. If they are dissatisfied with each other in the future, wouldn't it mean that they cannot become in-laws and become enemies instead? Xin Hu calmed down his emotions and replied in a neither arrogant nor humble manner.
The daughters of King Yan have never left Liangping Mansion, and the children of the Chen family have never been to Liangping Mansion. They have never met, so how can they have feelings for each other. Xin Hu made it clear that it was not that she didn¡¯t want King Yan¡¯s daughter, but that it was inappropriate and age-inappropriate. The eldest daughter was too big and the younger daughter was too young. In addition, she had always disapproved of blind marriage. marry.
Xin Hu's words made King Yan suffocate, and it took him a long time to say: "You are right. Look at me, there are a lot of women in the backyard. Apart from those who are competing for favor and want to gain benefits, who really cares about me?" For these daughters, I have fulfilled the responsibilities of a father to the best of my ability, and even doted on them. The world does not like daughters, and I also want to have a few sons. However, these daughters, in my life In my heart, I am also a sweet baby. It can be said that looking at the entire Anqing Dynasty, I am the most qualified father. Therefore, I also hope that they can marry a man who loves each other and live a happy life in the future. "
Xin Hu breathed a sigh of relief, and she knew that King Yan was actually a very rational person, and that his life was actually not happy. It doesn't matter if you hold great power and have a noble life experience. In Prince Yan's Mansion, the closest relatives to him are these five daughters. However, they will eventually get married and have their own family, and they will not even be able to come back to visit him in the future.
"Your Majesty is in a fatherly mood. Don't worry, your five daughters are all good and will have good marriages." Xin Hu said these words from his heart. Apart from anything else, just because of King Yan's affection for his daughters, she felt that the daughters taught by King Yan would be good.
"Well, I'll lend you some good advice." King Yan smiled lightly and finally dropped the subject. In fact, he really fell in love with Xinhu's children. No matter which one, he mainly felt that his daughter would be more comfortable if she married them. Because he believed in the character of Dalang and Xinhu. Another reason is that his daughter is actually not easy to marry.
Xinhu didn't stay in Liangping for long, and she always felt uneasy. She was really afraid that there would be another bloody storm, and it would also involve their family, so she hurriedly left Liangping and returned to the capital. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
