Chapter 1376: Leaving (2)
Chang listened to Xu Baihu's background, but it was very strange why the Niu family would agree to this family business: "Xu Baihu is old, and he has several children, so he doesn't want to take his life to Bo Tomorrow." The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "In addition, Xu Baihu is already in his forties. It is very good to live to 50 in the era of lack of medical treatment, and it is considered a high life to live to 60. If something happens to him, the children will suffer.
Tong sneered: "Niu's family wants to be an official's wife." "It's not Tong who sees through this, but Tang Xiaomei.
Chang Shi frowned and said, "This Niu clan has a bad temperament, but it can't harm a few children of the Xu family." "The Xu family still has five children! If they are killed by the Niu family, it will be the Tong family's sin.
Tong said with a smile: "Don't worry, that Xu Baihu is not a soft-eared person, on the contrary, this person has a very correct idea." He wants to transfer to another place, and he also wants to save more money for his three sons. Now that he knows the true face of the Niu family, he will definitely guard against her. "The most important thing is that the cow can't be regenerated. Without children, no matter how many means there are, it is impossible to win Xu Baihu.
After a pause, Tong said, "If Wei Qi hadn't written to ask about this, I wouldn't have bothered with this god. ”
Chang's smile disappeared when he heard this: "Wei Qi is still thinking about this woman?" If this is the case, it is really hopeless.
"No, I think Niu followed him and wanted her to have a good result. In this regard, Tong is also very helpless. But if she didn't solve Niu's matter, she was afraid that Cui Weiqi would always miss it. Tang Xiaomei knew about this and helped with ideas. Therefore, I chose this Xu Baihu in the fastest time.
knew that this woman was lying to him, but he was still so dedicated to her. If it sounds good, it is affectionate and righteous, and if it is ugly, Cui Weiqi is stupid. But it's not her son, and Chang doesn't have a bad time saying anything about it: "Then how much dowry are you going to give?"
Tong said: "Wei Qi has scraped together 1,500 taels of silver, just give her this number!" Because of Tong Fang's reminder, Tong no longer cares about this matter. Not only that, but she no longer gave Cui Weiqi money.
For a girl from an ordinary family, the dowry of 1,500 taels of silver is already a huge amount of money. At the beginning, her dowry only added up to ten taels of silver, which was already a lot. Like Tong's, the original marriage was two quilts and two clothes, and nothing else.
Chang asked: "Before, Wei Qi said that he would give Niu 10,000 taels of silver to marry, but now he only gives 1,500 taels, what will he do with the rest?
"I just wrote to him and asked him to hand over the money to the public high school in the future. He can't be a big man, and his wife and children have to be raised by our old couple. "Tong's can be regarded as learning the previous lesson. Cui Weiqi doesn't have much, less than 1,000 taels of silver a year. But only by making Cui Weiqi aware of the responsibility on his shoulders can he be truly mature and sensible.
Chang Shi said with a smile: "This is long overdue, you can't ignore your wife and children for a wild woman." "After this incident, the Tong family has also grown up.
After talking about Cui Weiqi, Tong said: "Sister-in-law, I want Qianqian to go to the capital with you." ”
The relationship between the two families is so close, as soon as the Tong family mentioned this, Chang knew what she meant: "Do you want to marry Qianqian to the capital?" Cui Qianqian looks good, has a good temperament, and the most important thing is to repay her kindness. Such a child is liked by everyone. If it weren't for Feng Dajun's bent desire to let Feng Zhixi marry Liu'er, she would have wanted to hire Cui Qianqian as her daughter-in-law. Of course, this was just a thought in her heart, and she never said it to anyone.
Tong nodded and said, "Well, marry her in the capital, and you will be able to see her in the future." "If you marry in Ho City, it's not easy to see each other. The daughter she raised, how can she give it up.
Chang didn't postpone it, and asked: "Then did you ask Qianqian, what kind of marriage does she want to marry?" This is very important, if they pick what Cui Qianqian doesn't like, wouldn't it be in vain. It's okay for them to be tired, but I'm afraid of delaying Cui Qianqian.
Tong said with some worry: "She doesn't want to marry a soldier who fights." "Cui Qianqian wants to marry a scholar, but Cui Mo is a military general, and the scholar he knows doesn't have two slaps. That's why in Pickaxe City, I haven't been able to find what I want.
Chang said with a smile: "It is estimated that her father's affairs have cast a shadow, and she doesn't have to be afraid to marry a scholar." Cheng, when I get to the capital, I will ask someone to inquire carefully, and I can always find a satisfactory husband for her. ”
also believes in Chang's vision, so the Tong family dared to entrust this matter to her.
It was close to noon before Tong went home.
In the evening, Qiqi came over to say goodbye to Chang's. Chang said with a smile: "Let you raise the fetus in the house and don't walk around, but I don't listen." ”
Qiqi smiled very gently: "I'm bored and flustered when I stay in the house, so it's better to come over and talk to my mother." "Qiqi has been with the Qiu family most of the time since he was a child. So she knew that what the old man wanted most was to have someone with him.
Chang Shi pulled Qiqi to his side: "Just now your Aunt Cui came over and said that Xiaomei was also pregnant." Your Aunt Cui said that the road was too bumpy and it was not safe to go on the road while pregnant, so she wanted to wait for Xiaomei to give birth before going to the capital, I think she made sense. It doesn't matter if you go to the capital later, the most important thing is the children. Seventy-seven, what do you say?"
Qiqi has actually thought about this problem, Ho City is thousands of miles away from the capital, and she will not regret dying if something happens on the way. misses her mother, because she was ignorant and lost her body when she was young, which led to difficulties in giving birth later.
Seeing that Qiqi didn't speak, Chang said with a smile: "If you don't want to, then forget it." "It's normal for a person to stay in Pickaxe City and be afraid.
Qiqi smiled and said, "Mother, I listen to you." "The body is important, everything else is secondary.
Chang Shi smiled and said, "I will ask your Aunt Cui to take care of you then." "This daughter-in-law, she couldn't be more satisfied. Gentle and recognizable, the housekeeper and the director can also afford it. I have to say that my husband has a good eye.
On this night, Yuxi and his party spent the night in the wild. Yuxi didn't bring much of his own things, but he brought all the things he used on the road. Needless to say, the camp tent is complete, such as pots and pans, rice, noodles, dried vegetables and other things.
The dry food eaten at noon and the meal at night were simple, but the mother and daughter ate it very deliciously.
After eating, Liu Er said with a smile: "Mother, I didn't think sausages were so delicious before!" But her mother ate it without frowning, how dare she have any objections.
Zao Zao said with a smile: "There was a march, because I had to arrive within the specified time, I didn't have time to cook, and I ate a nest for five days. After arriving at the destination, a bowl of cabbage soup was drunk. At that time, I felt that this cabbage soup was really delicious in the world!"
Liu Er said very dissatisfied: "Eldest sister, you haven't told me about this!" Zao Zao told her that it was interesting and fun, and she didn't tell her anything dangerous or bad.
Zao Zao said happily: "There is nothing to say. Liu'er, my mother is going to rush to the capital in a month, you have to be prepared to endure hardships. ”
Liu Er was not fooled: "Except for being a little stuffy, I think it's okay!" You can eat hot meals in the morning and evening, and you can eat dry food at noon. Liu Er felt that she would definitely be able to adapt to it.
Yuxi said with a smile: "If you want to be bored, you can talk to your eldest sister, anyway, she has nothing to do." "Zao Zao doesn't like to ride in a carriage, so she ran off for a horseback ride this afternoon.
Zao Zao wow yelled: "What do you mean I'm fine? Mother, I have a lot to do, okay?" Yunqing asked her to follow Yuxi to Beijing, so that she could protect the safety of Yuxi and Liu'er. Therefore, she did not dare to relax for a moment.
Liu Er said deliberately: "Yes, eldest sister, you are very busy, you are busier than your mother." Don't worry, I won't bother you. ”
"You have no conscience to say such a thing, look at how I clean you up. After saying this, Zao Zao went to tickle Liu'er. The two sisters made a mess.
Li Jingang looked at the two sisters in a mess from a distance, and said to Xu Zhen with a smile: "General, I have always heard that the second county lord is a lady, and it looks different from the rumors!"
Xu Zhen glanced at him and said, "Wouldn't it be a lady to make trouble with your sisters?"
Li Jingang said happily: "I heard that those famous ladies, but they don't show their teeth when they smile, they don't show their heads......" He forgot about the back.
"If you don't smile and don't show your head in front of your own family, it's not a lady or a wood. "It's good to put your best foot forward in front of outsiders. I also pay attention to so much in front of my own family, so I don't get tired and panicked.
Xu Zhen wanted Xu Yue to go to Beijing with him before. In this way, I also have the opportunity to get along with the second county lord more, but unfortunately Xu Yue is unwilling. The reason for Xu Yue's refusal was very simple, she was afraid of Yuxi.
Li Jingang nodded and said, "You are right." ”
In the wild, Liu'er was reluctant to take a bath even if there was hot water, so after washing up, she got into the carriage.
The palace lamps at the four corners of the carriage were lit, and a thick quilt was laid on the floor, and one of the windows was mostly open. Lying in it, it's not much different from the bed at home.
Seeing Zao Zao coming in, Liu Er asked, "Eldest sister, where is my mother?"
"My mother is still discussing with them, and I don't think it's so fast. Zao Zao didn't sleep during the day, so he would be sleepy: "Don't wait for my mother, she estimates that it will be late, let's sleep first!"
Liu Er nodded and said, "Okay." ”
Zao Zao lay down and fell asleep. Liu Er looked at the lamp and fell asleep after a while.
Yuxi talked to several ministers about the meeting, and then reviewed the excerpts, and it was only the beginning of the time when he finished doing this.
When I walked out of the tent, it was dark outside. Seeing this, Yuxi said, "I'm afraid it will rain tomorrow." "If the sky is full of stars, then tomorrow will be a sunny day, but now there is not a single star.
Meilan smiled and said, "No, Ming'er will definitely be a sunny day." "When it rains, you will be guilty of hurrying.
Ok-hee smiled and didn't continue the topic.
"Princess, you have to hurry tomorrow, you should rest early!" When Yuxi was in the palace, he basically went to sleep at the end of the day, and got up at the end of the day. Sleep, not much.
Yuxi shook his head and said, "It's so early, I can't sleep when I lie down." "It's actually quite painful to not be able to sleep and lie in bed. And the two daughters are in the car, and the sisters will have to wake up when the time comes.
Meilan didn't persuade anymore.
This will be free, Yuxi also has time to care about Jingbai's marriage, called Jingbai, who was busy outside, into the camp tent, and asked, "Have your affairs been handled?"
Jing Bai said with some embarrassment: "The marriage certificate has been obtained." My mother said that she would wait until she got to the capital to hold a wedding. "Zeng's mother got the news, and she was afraid that what Yuxi said would come true, and she got the marriage certificate within three days.
"Did you agree to Mrs. Duan's conditions?" Otherwise, it would be impossible to get the marriage so quickly.
Jing Bai glanced at Yuxi carefully, and seeing that Yuxi did not have a look of displeasure on her face, she said, "Yes." My mother found someone to find an errand for Duan Laosi to catch a quick job in the county office, and also gave Mrs. Duan 800 taels of silver. "Catching fast is a profession that has not yet entered the stream. However, for ordinary people to be able to eat the food of the official family, it is also very remarkable.
The seven officials in front of the prime minister, not to mention the people in the palace. Zeng's mother is the housekeeper of the palace, and it is not difficult for Duan Laosi to find a job in the county government to catch fast. It's just that they didn't agree before, because they were afraid that their lions would open their mouths.
Yuxi is the highest person in power, and he naturally knows everything about the following things: "Catch fast? If you don't have any skills, you can't do this errand. However, Duan Xiaohan's martial arts are so good, Duan Laosi may not be able to use martial arts.
Jing Bai shook his head and said: "Master Duan is so lazy to do it, he doesn't do farm work at home on weekdays, how can he stand the hardships of practicing." "Duan Xiaohan was not only lucky to be able to enter the pro-barracks. His grandfather is a retired veteran, and Duan Xiaohan has practiced with his grandfather since he was a child. Later, when he was conscripted, he entered the barracks.
Yuxi smiled and said, "Isn't this a pit person!" Now that the officials are in charge of Qingming, the government does not support idlers. Even if Duan Laosi can enter the yamen, he can't pick up his shoulders and can't lift his hands, and it is estimated that he will have to go home in a few months.
Jing Bai said with a smile: "Old Lady Duan is whimsical and wants my mother to donate an official to Duan Laosi." Don't say that my mother doesn't have that ability, just say that Duan Lao doesn't know a single word, and she is embarrassed to speak. However, Duan Laosi agreed as soon as he could, and said that Dai Dadao was very majestic, and no one would dare to look down on him in the future. "Donating the official, it's also a loss for Mrs. Duan to think about it. This is not the previous dynasty, if you have money, you can donate an official to be an official.
The smile on Yuxi's face suddenly ended: "It's just that the ignorant are fearless." "It's because I don't understand anything that I say things like that.
Meilan changed the topic without a trace: "It's just that this old lady is eccentric, and she is still mean and ignorant, Duan Xiaohan didn't grow crooked and entered the pro-military camp, which can be regarded as a miracle." ”
Jing Bai knew Duan Xiaohan better, shook his head and said, "Duan Xiaohan grew up with his grandfather since he was a child. The old man didn't like Mrs. Duan and didn't live with them. "If you don't live together, you won't be affected by it.
Meilan suddenly said: "No wonder!" She said how could Old Lady Duan raise a loyal and capable son like Duan Xiaohan.
