He Tongzhi was at home, and Tongzhi explained to his wife before going to the yamen: "You took your eldest sister to the Wang's mansion today to see his wife, and his wife seems to have a body." ”

Mrs. He looked at her master and replied in a slightly angry tone: "Don't go!" ”

He Tongzhi's face was cold, and he scolded sharply: "Say it again!" ”

Mrs. He was not afraid of him, and her voice was cold: "You are embarrassed to ask me to go to Lord Wang's house." Before Lord Wang leaves, I believe in you so much and leave the entire state capital to you. What about you? As soon as that lustful and money-greedy Zhizhou arrives here, you will get involved with others, are you worthy of the trust that Lord Wang entrusted to you with this state capital? You still want to ask me to go to Lord Wang's mansion today, do you want me to send it over to slap someone in the face? ”

He Tongzhi listened to his wife's count, and then learned that his wife had such a big misunderstanding and resentment about him. Hurriedly pulled the lady to the inner room and whispered, "What are you talking nonsense! That Zhizhou has been uneasy because of Lord Wang's outstanding political achievements, and he is afraid that he will be replaced by Lord Wang's official position. Behind the scenes, Lord Wang knows, and it is also Lord Wang who asked me to half-hide and deal with Na Zhizhou, lest Na Zhizhou go to other colleagues. If a colleague can't stand the temptation and commits something wrong, it will be very hurtful to deal with it at that time. Lord Wang said that although he was reluctant to do anything to his subordinates who had shared weal and butter with him, if someone really made a mistake, he could only investigate and deal with it in accordance with the laws of the imperial court, and he could not tolerate the slightest personal relationship. And Lord Wang is going to leave for so long this time, in fact, he deliberately left a chance for me to take care of the affairs in the state capital. If he is transferred in the future. In this vacant position, he wanted to write a recommendation based on my actual political achievements, so that I could move up to the next level. It's also a natural thing. You say, Lord Wang, I don't want the benefits that can be seen with his eyes and can be obtained by reaching out, and I will listen to the empty mouth of Zhizhou? Am I so stupid?! Well? ”

Mrs. He didn't believe her master's words because the Shen Governor's Mansion was so miserable by her own master and masters before. Therefore, looking at her master's eyes for a long time, and seeing that the master's eyes were not flickering at all, he asked in disbelief: "What you said is true?" ”

"Of course it's true. If I really have something to do with Na Zhizhou, do you think I can stay in the yamen for a few days without incident?! Although Lord Wang said that he handed over the power to me, where is there no eye in the yamen that he put in it at the beginning? You're welcome. I'm afraid that if I fart secretly, someone will immediately reach Lord Wang's ears within an hour. ”

Mrs. He didn't believe it even more, "You are talking nonsense, Lord Wang is so far away." How did you get the news here so quickly? ”

"Cut! Women's families are short-sighted. Lord Wang has raised more than a dozen harriers specially used to transmit messages, do you know? It flies fast and fiercely, and I've heard that the eagles of the prairie sometimes can't beat that guy. Hi! I want to raise it too, but it's very difficult to train.

Come on! Come on! Don't talk nonsense with you, you remember to take your eldest sister with you. I heard that before Lord Wang left, he arranged for his nephew to come over to help Mrs. Wang run the house, so please inquire about the situation by the way. If the eldest sister can get into the eyes of Mrs. Wang, she will almost be able to get married. ”

Mrs. He opened her mouth and looked at her master in surprise. It turns out that the real purpose of the master is here! I'm quite excited, there is nothing good in this place that is suitable for my eldest sister's son. There is no high, no low, the eldest sister's family affairs have been hanging there. If the eldest sister can have this good life and enter the gate of the Wang family, it will really fall into a blessed nest. Don't look at anything else, just look at Mrs. Wang's life, and say that she is not afraid of offending people, that is, the princess is afraid that she is not so free and comfortable.

Because Mrs. He had a beautiful yearning in her heart, she came to the prefect's mansion to see Mrs. Wang, and her smile was like a blooming flower.

"Ouch! Mrs. Wang's life is really incomparable to others! So soon again? ”

Ah Jing let Mrs. He and Miss He in, and replied with a smile: "Yes! It has been a few days since the diagnosis, and there has been no news from the public. ”

"That's it! This morning, my lord asked me to come over to visit you, and I was still confused, and my heart said that you are not good! Later, my lord said that when he saw your housekeeper looking for the best maternity supplements everywhere, he guessed that you had a body. ”

Ah Jing secretly said in her heart: No wonder the master keeps saying that He Tongzhi is very wise, but it's a pity that his heart is not broad enough, he is stuck in the path, and he blocks his future. At most, you can go to the position of Zhizhou, and you don't have that mind if you go forward. Otherwise, with his wisdom, it will not be difficult to be a prime minister.

Thinking that of course these words would not be said, she smiled and greeted: "Mrs. He is so happy to be able to come!" I didn't expect the eldest sister to come today! Yell! It's only been a long time since I've seen him, why is this kid so taller than your mother all of a sudden? ”

When Mrs. He saw that Mrs. Prefect paid so much attention to her eldest sister, she was happy, and the smile on her face was even brighter. He also spoke with intimacy: "Mrs. Wang! Thank you so much for saying they're getting taller! ”

"Ahh Does it have anything to do with me? ”

"Not really! Once I came to the house and saw that although your family Wenzhong was weaned from his mother's milk, he still had to drink milk every day. I asked you at the time, and you remember that you said that milk makes a child grow! ”

Ah Jing's stomach was about to explode with laughter, and she couldn't help but laugh and said, "Even if the eldest sister drinks milk, it can't be effective so quickly, right?!" ”

Mrs. He has a good reason: "The eldest sister was originally growing her body, and if she drank milk every day, she would grow faster." ”

Ah Jing didn't want to hold on to this topic, so she thought about how to turn the topic around: "Yes! Mrs. He is right! I still don't know how old your eldest sister is! Have you gotten it? Then he said to Runqin, who had already made tea: "Runqin! Bring the tea! ”

Mrs. He saw that Mrs. Wang took the initiative to ask about her eldest sister's age, which could find a topic for herself to talk about family affairs. However, she also knew that she couldn't directly say that she wanted to marry the Wang family, "It's going to be a marriage at the end of the year!" Ay! I'm working hard for my eldest sister's family! There is no suitable one in this nearby city, so look for it from afar! There is no one who knows the roots, and the family affairs have always been not small, and it seems that it is about to be over, but how can I get it! ”

Of course, Ah Jing knew that her daughter's family affairs were not going well, and how anxious she was to be a mother, thinking that her mother was like a fool and had to be laughed at, and she didn't forget to ask someone to help her daughter talk about her family. She motioned to Runqin to hand the teacup to Mrs. He and the eldest sister of the He family, and comforted Mrs. He: "Don't be too anxious Mrs. He!" At the beginning, my family affairs were also very frustrated, and my mother was anxious to beg people everywhere. As a result, where she didn't ask for it, it made my marriage happen. Therefore, if this fate arrives, it will naturally become a natural one, so there is no need to worry! ”

Mrs. He really didn't know about the relationship between Mrs. Wang and the prefect Wang, she always thought that the two had been married since childhood. Look at what this lady means, she came very late for this family affair! In this case, then what she wants to say in her heart can be said smoothly.

"Hey! Mrs. Wang! Although I am older than you, I really don't have as many relatives and friends as you. If you have a suitable one, please help my eldest sister to take a look, and I will give you a glass of wine in the future! ”

Ah Jing was stunned for a moment, but when she thought of her mother's madness at that time, she could immediately understand Mrs. He's eager mentality. smiled and nodded: "It's nothing, I'm afraid that if I think it's good, Mrs. He and the eldest sister may not be optimistic." Still, I tried my best! ”

"Good! That's it! I heard my lord say: It will take a while for Lord Wang to come back, so does Mrs. Wang want to call her mother's family or her mother-in-law's nephew to come over and help the family? ”

"Oh this! My lord had already arranged it before he left, and it was my lord's nephew, who happened to be idle at his father's place in the Northland, so my lord asked him to come and live for a while, and by the way, he helped me run the house. ”

"That's a good idea! How old is this nephew today? Can you be famous? Do you have any family to do? ”

Speaking of which, if Ah Jing no longer knows Mrs. He's thoughts, then she is pretending to be stupid. However, if Qingzhu can marry the eldest sister of the He family, it will feel good. It's just that she can't admit this casually, "This nephew has been over there in his hometown, and it seems that he has passed the Xiucai examination, and I really don't know much about other situations!" ”

"Oh! That's it! Mrs. He's obviously lost expression made Runqin, who was busy arranging pastries next to her, feel it. I can't help but want to laugh, my uncle's boys are really popular!

The eldest sister of the He family was asked by her mother about the situation of other people's boys in front of her, this thought was too obvious, her face was burning red, but it was not rude to interrupt her mother's speech, so she had to sit on pins and needles in embarrassment. Ah Jing quietly observed the eldest sister of the He family with her peripheral vision, and found that although she looked embarrassed and embarrassed, she did not interrupt her mother's words in a proper manner. At such an age, you can restrain your words and deeds so well, and your upbringing is still very good. Although Ah Jing is optimistic about this girl, Qingzhu's family affairs are really not something she can decide, and she can only take it to heart.

Mrs. He sat down for a while, drank tea, talked, and left satisfied with today's harvest. I basically know more than half of what I want to know, although it is a little unsatisfactory, but at least it is much stronger than what I didn't know before.

As soon as the mother and daughter of the He family left, Runqin talked about the guess in her heart, and Ah Jing nodded: "I think so too!" Mrs. He may have wanted to kiss the younger generation of the old man's family for a long time, but she was afraid that when Wen Chao and they were here, they were still young, so she didn't have time to say it. When her eldest sister is older, Wen Chao and the others will not come over, and when they hear that Qingzhu is coming, they will definitely not be able to sit still. She is restrained enough, if she is my mother, I am afraid that as soon as she enters the door, she will yell and say her thoughts directly. Where will there be such a roundabout grinding for a long time, and nothing has been said! ”

Runqin and the others could only laugh dryly, listening with their ears, and no one dared to open their mouths to echo the gossip of Mrs. Sixth Lady. (To be continued.) )
