Chapter 147, Stationery Distribution

  Xingzhou, Yan Mansion.

  As the end of the year is getting closer, Mrs. Li is too busy to prepare for New Year’s ceremonies, to attend banquets held by various prefectures, and to calculate the income of the shop. She is so busy that she directly slips out the rice flower.

  "Your father was promoted to Zhizhou this year. This year's exchanges of gifts have increased several times compared to last year." Mrs. Li was checking the annual gift lists sent by each family while talking to the daughter who settled the accounts.

  The rice flower head did not lift up: "When the official is older, there will naturally be more people who fudge."

  Ms. Li glanced at her daughter, and said with a smile: "This is not allowed to be messed up outside."

   Daohua raised her head and stuck her tongue out, and said playfully, "My daughter is not stupid."

  Ms. Li was not angry: "Yes, you can do the best." She said, her mouth tickled. This year, I really have to thank my daughter. Otherwise, at this time, she doesn't know how annoying she should be.

  There are more exchanges of New Year's gifts, the more expenses will naturally increase. If it hadn't been for the watermelon on Zhuangzi to make a lot of money, this year's New Year's gifts would seem shabby again.

Thinking of the gifts she gave to each family, Mrs. Li showed a smug look on her face, and said to her daughter in a cheerful tone: "In our family's return gift this year, there are vegetables and flowers you planted, which can be said to be Xingzhou City. It’s the top one."

  Things are rare and expensive. In winter, vegetables and flowers are few and it is difficult to buy with money.

  Although some other people also have greenhouses, whether it is the vegetables or flowers they grow, they are not as good as their own.

  Zhou’s family is rich enough, but in order to eat their own dishes, don’t they also let their girls go to their daughter’s side every two days?

  As proud as Mrs. Li, there is also Yan Zhigao in Yamen.

This year, their family’s New Year’s gift has greatly increased his face in the state office. Every day, people thank him, not saying that the vegetables they sent are delicious, or that the potted plants are good-looking. Let him and the officials under his hands. Pulled in a lot of distance.

  Especially in the yamen, those old dough sticks that are strict and confess to death, but have strong relationships behind them, because of the gifts and intentions they gave him, they were less obstructive and picky about his end-of-year work, which made him relax a lot.

  At this moment, Yan Zhigao sat in the outer courtyard study in a good mood, admiring the calligraphy and painting sent by the next person.

  Suddenly, Steward Sun walked in with a big box: "Master, this is a New Year gift from Wang Tongzhen."

   Yan Zhi raised her eyebrows: "Come here and let me have a look?" Qian Tongzhi had secretly told him about the fact that Counsel Du was standing behind Wang Tongjuan.

  Wang Tong sentenced this person, his work ability is still good, and everything he ordered is done well. As long as he doesn't stumble behind his back, he won't be too embarrassed.

  Of course, reuse is impossible.

  The housekeeper Sun gently put the box on the table and opened it carefully.

   is a complete set of stationery.

  Pen, ink, inkstone, brush wash, pen ink, ink drop, ruler, arm rest, etc. are all available.

  Yan Zhigao picked up the brush and looked at it. The excellent Xuan brush, and then looked at the inkstone. It turned out to be the inkstone: "This Wang Tongjuan is really willing."

  This set of tools, not to mention the value of the price, if you want to get it, it is estimated that you will have to spend a lot of time.

  Yan Zhigao took a look at the stationery on his desk. They had only bought them, but the new set was not needed for the time being.

   "Father!"

   Just then, Yan Wenbin walked in.

  Yan Zhigao put down the xuan pen in his hand, smiled and asked, "Why are you here?"

  Yan Wenbin saw the stationery on the table and his eyes lit up. He still lacks a good stationery set, and this one is just right.

  If in the past, seeing his beloved young son showing a look of desire, Yan Zhigao would definitely take the initiative to let him take it, but this time, he said nothing.

  Seeing this, the steward Sun standing by the side moved his heart.

  He has been by his side since the master was not yet in the imperial examination. Over the years, he has also seen how much he loves Lin's sons and daughters.

  When Wu Ye entered the room and his eyes fell on the stationery, he thought that this set of stationery might be taken away by Wu Ye, but you can see how the master looks at the moment, this is not going to give the stationery to Wu Ye!

  This is the first time ever!

   Is it to be kept for the uncle?

  Also, the uncle is the eldest son after all, even if the old man loves the younger son, he will not ignore the uncle.

  Yan Wenbin was a little disappointed when he saw that his father didn't say that he was going to give him stationery: "Father, my son doesn't understand some content in the textbook. I would like to ask you to give him some guidance."

  Seeing that the younger son knows that he is hardworking and motivated, Yan Zhigao is very happy: "Show it to me."

After   , Yan Zhigao explained to Yan Wenbin what he didn't understand in detail.

The question marked out by    has been answered, but Yan Wenbin hasn’t been so slow and left immediately.

   Yan Zhigao: "Why, there is still a problem?"

  Yan Wenbin moved her lips and wanted to ask for the stationery. After thinking about it, she decided to go back and tell her aunt and ask her father for it.

  As long as the mother-in-law speaks, Dad will hardly refuse.

  Yan Wenbin went straight to Shuangxinyuan after coming out of the study, and told Aunt Lin about the stationery.

   Seeing her son’s face in a hurry, Aunt Lin thought it was something. After hearing what he said, she immediately smiled and said, “Isn’t it just a set of stationery? My mother will ask for it for you. Look at you in a hurry.”

  Yan Wenbin looked embarrassed: "My son really likes that set of stationery."

   Aunt Lin smiled and said, "Alright, wait for your father to come to Shuangxinyuan, no, when your father comes back from the outer courtyard, mother will go to him and promise to help you get the stationery."

  Yan Wenbin was a little worried: "Mother, will Dad give it to me? Dad would take the initiative to talk about things his son liked in the past, but this time, his son stayed in the study for so long, but Dad didn’t say anything."

Aunt Lin was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "As the end of the year is approaching, your father is busy with his affairs. Maybe he didn't expect it." After finishing speaking, she thought for a while and invited the maid. Come tell me."

  Outside the study room.

After Yan Wenbin left, Yan Zhigao looked down at the stationery on the table, thinking that he had never given anything to the eldest daughter before, so he invited the housekeeper Sun: "Go, send this set of stationery to Daohua, that girl. It’s well written, it just works."

  Hearing this, Steward Sun looked surprised.

  Don’t blame him for this. The five children of Dafang must be valued, and the uncle must be the first; when it comes to being favored, the fifth master and the third girl do their part.

  The eldest girl and the fourth master sandwiched between them, um, are actually a bit embarrassing.

  At least, in the past, the master had good things in his hands, and he rarely thought of these two.

  The housekeeper Sun was surprised, but the face was not obvious. He smiled and covered the stationery, then carefully took it up and walked towards the main courtyard.

  Main courtyard.

   Daohua had just calculated the income and expenditure of Mrs. Li’s dowry shop for a year, and was about to take a stroll in the yard, when she saw the housekeeper Sun coming in with a box.

  "Madam, this is the stationery the master gave to the eldest girl."

  Butler Sun saluted the two and put the stationery on the table with a smile.

   Daohua was a little shocked: "Give it to me? You are not mistaken, did you?" Cheap father thought of her unexpectedly?

Seeing the disbelief on the girl's face, the housekeeper Sun twitched the corners of her mouth. Look, even the girl herself didn't believe it. It was normal for him to be surprised before.

   "Yes, the master said that the handwriting of the big girl is good, and it is suitable for this set of stationery."

  Mrs. Li glared at her daughter and urged her: "Hurry up and take a look."

Daohua let go of her puzzlement, opened the box, and saw the complete stationery inside. She couldn't help but feel happy: "Before I was telling my grandmother that I didn't have a ruler or arm rest. Now there is no need to buy it."

  Ms. Li saw that every stationery material is of good quality, and said with a smile: "Then you have to thank your father."

  Ina Hua looked at the stationery and did not speak.

  Shuangxinyuan.

  Butler Sun took the stationery and went to the main courtyard. Aunt Lin knew about it the first time.

  In this regard, she is also unbelievable.

How did    give it to the big girl?

   Even if you don’t give it to Wenbin, you should give it to the uncle.

  The eldest girl can't stand up to the master, doesn't the master dislike this daughter very much?
