All Hail Cousin Brother

He even speculated inexplicably that in the vague dream, he must have done something bad to Miss Yu, causing Miss Yu to die prematurely.

But!

What puzzled Song Mingzhao was that he admired this Miss Yu very much, so how could he hurt her?

This question still haunts him to this day.

Involuntarily, he began to pay attention to Miss Yu and inquired about everything related to her.

At the end of the time, Song Mingzhao tendered his farewell.

Mrs. Yu asked someone to prepare cinnamon tea, as well as for inhalation in the house. After being improved by Yu Youyao, she added the frankincense incense to ward off the cold, and a few years' ceremony.

Adding up the odds and ends, I also returned a half car salute.

Song Mingzhao sent a large half of the car and brought back the special products in Beijing from Jiangnan.

On the second day, Madam Liu went to Zhuangzi to pick up Yu Jianjia in person.

Yu Youyao originally planned to go there in person.

But Mrs. Yu was not allowed: "It's cold and freezing, the road is not too close, you are still tender, how can you go outside to suffer from the cold and be tired, Madam Liu can go by herself, this year's end is coming, this You have been busy preparing for the New Year's Etiquette for a few days, and you are already busy enough, even outsiders won't say much."

Usually, things in the house can be handed over to Qiu Yiniang. Although she is pregnant, she is helped by the clan aunt and Liu mama, so she is not tired.

But this preparation for the New Year's ceremony and the boxing ceremony, Qiu Yiniang can't help.

The first rules and etiquette here is to take the list of Yufu’s usual friends, and then find out the list of the other party’s New Year’s gift from the previous year. .

Whether the person in charge of the family is virtuous or not, when others see the gift list of your family, they generally have a bottom line in their hearts.

The gift list reflects the core of dealing with people and communicating with people.

Yu Youyao didn't insist, and said: "Mr. Liu in my yard is a proper person. I usually take her with me when I go out, and let Mama Liu take her with me, so I can feel more at ease."

It's freezing cold and Yu Jianjia's body is not very good. Bringing a few more people with outside experience can also deal with it.

Madam Yu laughed when she heard it: "You still think well."

Like Mrs. Liu, who has a lot of experience going out and can handle the elderly, there are not many in the palace.

Yu Youyao smiled and discussed with Mrs. Yu about returning the gift——

"Last year, there was a Jingdezhen celestial jade pot-petal spring vase on the boxing list sent by Qifu. The color is clean and it is a high-quality celestial glaze. It is reasonable to say that this year's boxing ceremony prepared by Qifu is comparable in value to previous years. It's almost the same, our family is preparing for the boxing, so we have to follow last year's practice."

Mrs. Yu twirled the beads and didn't speak.

Boxing gifts are given every year, and the gift list is the same as before, and the value is adjusted according to the price.

Every year's boxing, except that things will be a little different, the value and weight are also the same.

Yu Youyao continued: "Only cloudy and rainy days can produce high-quality azure glaze. This year's weather is hot and dry, and there is little rain. There are very few Ru azure glazes on the market, and the value has gone up, so it is not suitable to return this gift. , this dynasty is still red, and the Spring Festival is a festive day, why not replace it with the underglaze red jade pot and petal spring vase, which is also a Jingdezhen kiln? The underglaze red with pure and bright color is also very rare."

Madam Yu smiled, this is the essence of gift giving.

This year's azure glaze is expensive because of its rarity, and its value is nearly half higher than in previous years. It is a clear disadvantage to send you azure.

Even with the friendship between the Yu and Qi families, this Ru Tianqing is also a gift.

But giving gifts is about the word "gift", not the word "expensive".

You gave something expensive, and if the gift from other people is not as valuable as the gift from your family, when you take out the gift and compare it with each other, wouldn’t it be awkward to bow your head in vain?

Giving something "expensive" is not worthy of praise. It is not worth it when dealing with others, embarrassing others, and neglecting etiquette. This is thankless.

Mrs. Yu nodded again and again: "The red under the glaze is good, not only in terms of value, it is equal to last year's Ru Tianqing, even in color, it is also very pleasing."

During the Chinese New Year, everyone is looking forward to the prosperity.

Just looking at this color, no one else will have any opinion.

In the afternoon, Yu Jianjia returned to the mansion.

Due to the fact that Yu Jianjia had contracted the cold before, Mrs. Yu was worried, and immediately took the sign and went to invite Yu Jianjia to enter the house to diagnose and treat Yu Jianjia.

The Yu Mansion is generous, and it is not a difficult family. Even if the New Year is approaching and the weather is freezing cold, Hu Yuyi is willing to take this trip.

After the diagnosis and treatment, Yuyi Hu smiled: "During this time, Miss San's body has been well maintained, and the dosage of the medicine on the prescription can be reduced. I will re-prescribe the prescription for Miss San, which should be nourishing in autumn and winter. Body, how did the third miss raise it before, and it will be good to continue raising it in the future."

I didn't mention the cold, and it doesn't matter if I think about it.

Mrs. Yu was naturally happy. As the New Year was approaching, the Yu residence not only gave the clinic silver, but also prepared a New Year's gift and sent it to the carriage of Royal Doctor Hu.

It seems that after the new year, Yu Jianjia will go to Zhuangzi to recuperate again.

Although the reputation is not good, if Yu Jianjia can really take care of her body, it doesn't matter. After all, a direct daughter is always sick, and it is not good for the reputation of the mansion.

Every household is busy and busy, preparing for a good New Year.

The Yu Mansion was covered with bright red lanterns all over the place.

However, on the 30th day of the year.

A report came from Zhejiang. Since the autumn and winter, Japanese pirates have often disturbed the border and looted ships at sea. This was not a big deal. The Zhejiang navy was in the coastal area and often fought with Japanese pirates. They have rich experience and Japanese pirates are not a climate.

But because of Song Xiuwen's case, the officials of Zhejiang Province were all in danger, and the navy's hearts were also floating. A small group of Japanese pirates attacked Taizhou and broke the defense of Taizhou's navy. The Japanese pirates entered the city to burn, kill and loot. Materials were looted, and most of the inner city was burned...

The news seems to have been rushed, and the date of New Year's Eve was specially chosen to prevent people from celebrating the New Year.

Immediately shocked the court!

The courtiers didn't even care about New Year's Eve, and they all wore court clothes and entered the palace.

Japanese pirates are always infested, burning, killing, looting and doing all kinds of evil, which has always been a big problem for the confidants of the Zhou Dynasty.

The Great Zhou Dynasty set up the navy to completely eradicate the Japanese invasion. In recent years, a large number of military forces and money have been invested in order to fight against the Japanese pirates and the pirates who colluded with the Japanese pirates.

However, it is not easy to cultivate navy, and it is also very difficult to fight at sea. It took more than ten years for the Great Zhou Dynasty to fight against Japanese and bandits.

There are courtiers at the moment, and the dynasty counted down the tragic tragedies of the Great Zhou Dynasty since the founding of the country, where Japanese plagues raged along the coast, robbery and robbery in several provinces, and wherever they went, they burned, killed, and looted.
