Chapter 103
Holding his breath is holding his breath, as a member of the Cui clan in Guangling, Cui Ping can't just leave it alone. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
As soon as he left Cui Lin's carriage, Cui Ping went to the second half of the convoy, that is, the place where the supplies were escorted, and ordered someone to take out some of the items that were not considered dowry, or outside the budget, and began to decorate the entire convoy with them. He called a few clever and eloquent servants to come, and ordered them to carry their assets and quickly go to the nearest county seat, as well as the Shijiawu Fort outside the county seat, to show the name of the Cui family, and buy some good things. No matter how much money you spend, you must make the already colorful team more and more colorful, and for a while, the whole team is busy.
Cui Liang and Cui Lin's siblings have lived a luxurious life since they were young, and it has become a habit to scatter money all over the world. While making Cui Ping, who was already in a bad mood, a little more irritable, it also made Xu Ze extremely useful and trusting, and even entrusted the matter of the next appointment, and Zhang Mu, the envoy who followed the team all the way, became more and more dissatisfied.
"I don't know which Lang Jun will be, if it's Du Lieutenant, it will be bad." Zhang Mu, who was sitting on the ox cart, looked at the lively scene not far away, although he felt that Xu Pan came in person, it was too much to promote Cui Lin. But after thinking about it, he couldn't find a second person who was "valuable" and could come over at this time. After Zhang Mu hesitated, he decided to take the lead and told the person who came, saving the other party from being irritable when he saw Cui's style, so he found Cui Ping and said, "Zhang Mou is a great grace to the prince of the mansion, and he has to welcome him a little distance, and I hope that Cui Langjun Haihan." ”
The next day, Zhang Mu led a group of people, traveled lightly, walked for a whole day, and camped at the foot of the mountain. On the third day, as soon as the sky was bright, Zhang Mu got up and cleaned his face, and was about to let the team continue to walk, when he saw the front of the official road, where his eyes could reach, the blazing red clothes were like the rising sun, stinging his eyes. When the other party got closer, Zhang Mu found that it was Xu Hui, A Yuan and a man named Zhuang Qi, from Yanmen, who was strong in martial arts and extremely clever in riding.
Zhang Mu wiped his eyes, and saw that they didn't follow the trilogy behind them, his lips trembled, Xu Hui just turned over and dismounted, and before he could stand firmly, he greeted him, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of worry and disapproval: "Girl, you...... How can you ......?"
"Hui is a junior, how can you bother the elders to welcome each other?" Xu Hui smiled slightly, and said unhurriedly, "As soon as I heard that Uncle Zhang was coming to pick me up, I gave up my part and rushed over in the starry night!" ”
Zhang Mu was in the party, and only received a casual position to sort out books, although everyone knew that he was Xu Ze's confidant and did not dare to slack off, but when he went outside, he heard that he was just an eight-rank official, and many people did not say anything, and they were invisibly full of contempt. It's like Cui Liang and Cui Lin's brothers and sisters, as well as their many relatives and even servants, when they heard Zhang Mu's official position, their faces were elongated, and they said that the Shangdang Xu family didn't respect them enough, and they didn't even do a little bit of the scene, so they almost didn't treat him as a slave.
In a place like Guangling, the children of the Han clan are motivated, even if they become officials, they lick their faces to the family, and there are really many people who regard themselves as slaves. Cui Liang and Cui Lin were used to such things, and they thought that calling Zhang Mu was condescending to dignity, but they didn't know that the latter had accumulated a stomach full of resentment in his heart, but he was just in the way of his good temper and mission, so it was not easy to attack. At this moment, Xu Hui is an "elder", with respect between the lines, and he also expressed it with action, seeing her dusty and slightly tired look, Zhang Mu listened, and didn't know how much ironing there was in his heart, and he was busy saying: "The girl is so respectful, but it's really a lowly job, the lowly position is just a small official, how can it, how can it make you ......" Speaking of emotion, Zhang Mu's eyes gradually turned red.
As soon as Xu Hui saw it, he knew that Zhang Mu was in Guangling, especially in the Cui family, and he must have suffered a lot of anger, otherwise he would not have been so emotionally exposed.
The more arrogant the family that has been inherited for hundreds of years, the more they want to be a corporal of courtesy for a family like them with a weak foundation, if not, how can they let all the disciples of the Han clan who are attached to the family come to defect? It was Xu Hui who hurriedly supported the old man, who was over half a hundred years old, and laughed loudly: "Uncle Zhang doesn't need to be too humble, even my grandfather is full of praise for your ability, otherwise he would not have entrusted you with important tasks." Compared with your talent and experience, a junior like Hui who is protected by his father and ancestors is like a firefly and a bright moon, which is really not worth mentioning, how can he receive your gift? ”
Even when all the Han clan saw the children of the family, when they swallowed their anger and saluted, they would think, "If he hadn't been reincarnated well, how could he compare with me." But it's one thing to think about it, and it's another thing to hear it come out of the other person's mouth. Although there are people with dark minds who will secretly scold each other for their coy behavior, I have to admit that when I hear the words of others depreciating themselves, everyone will feel much more comfortable.
Zhang Mu saw Xu Huitan and smiled, full of sincerity, and thought of Cui Lin's arrogant and willful appearance less than two years older than her, and secretly sighed that this person is really too different. Not to mention Cui Lin, who is about to become the future mother of the Xu family, even if it is Cui Liang, who is about to enter the office, compared with Xu Hui in front of him, it is a world of difference!
At this time, Zhang Mu didn't care about the whispers he had to Xu Hui, and said with a worried face: "The girl's kindness, Zhang Mou understands it, but the Cui family ......"
Speaking of this, he sighed and said helplessly: "The important members of the party know that the girl's talent is far better than that of ordinary men, whether it is calligraphy and painting, riding and archery or skills, they are extremely good, if it is a man, even if the prime minister does it, but the people of Guangling Cui's family don't know!" Seeing that the girl is coming, they may not know what they will think, maybe they will ...... What's more, Cui Liang, the young master of the Cui family, is really unorthodox, his car is in front of Miss Cui's frame, but he hugs a few beautiful women every day, and openly ...... nonsense"
Zhang Muyue said, the more worried he became, but Xu Hui didn't pay attention to it at all, but said with a smile: "What's more, my reputation in the family is really not good, right?" ”
At such a time, the straw bale fool who provoked her in front of her was dead everywhere, so why did she bother with it? If the people of the Cui family can smile and be kind when they see her, she will have to cheer up and deal with it!
"The girl is really ...... It's too young. Zhang Mu pondered for a moment, and Fang said cautiously, "You ......"
He naturally knew what kind of reputation Xu Hui had in the family - proud and conceited, high-flying, and unexpected...... In order to wash the reputation of their family and wife, Donglai Fan and Shen Fu naturally tried their best to splash dirty water on Xu Hui's body. After all, many crimes, when placed on Xu Pan, must be considered unruly, others listen to it, smile and pass. put it on Xu Hui, but it may ruin her life. Unexpectedly, Xu Hui was not angry or annoyed, smiled faintly, and didn't take it to heart at all, but Ping's was angry, pointing at Xu Hui and scolding him many times, saying that she was too willful, and acting so unscrupulously not only ruined herself, but also ruined the reputation of her cousins and cousins, so that they could not find a good family.
Thinking of the biological mother's incomprehension, as well as the third aunt's faint resentment, the two younger sisters seemed to understand whether they understood or not, and they were preoccupied, Xu Hui's smile dimmed, but he quickly returned to normal, and said indifferently: "When you are young, if you don't have a handful of circumstances, do you have to wait until you are old and then remember the years of your youth?" Besides, I haven't taken into account their repeated delays in the trip, causing my grandfather to have to pay for the change of the invitation and the delay of the wedding, and they still dare to care, I don't have enough face from the Xu family in the party? ”
Seeing Xu Hui's darkened eyes, thinking of the rarity of her Xu family's descendants in the party, as well as Xu Ze's occasional words, Zhang Mu deeply felt that Xu Hui's was not easy, and regretted that even if he admired her talent in the past, he also slandered her for "being too public, not knowing how to hide clumsy, and not knowing the duty of a woman". This old man who has no great ability, but is loyal, abides by etiquette, and is slightly cautious, said with concern: "The girl has traveled all the way, it is too hard, it is better to rest for a while, and when the subordinates arrive, let's go on the road together!" ”
After that, Zhang Mu thought about it, and still added: "Even if you are in a hurry, it is not bad for a moment, and more people can make them respect." ”
Regarding Xu Hui's behavior, the officials of the Shangdang Xu family divided into two attitudes, one is quite open-minded, even if he feels awkward, but seeing that Xu Hui's talent is not inferior to that of men, and he is reasonable, he gradually accepts it after a long time, after all, whether Xu Hui can marry or not, it is their family's business, what does it have to do with themselves? The other is very stubborn, no matter what Xu Hui said they were speechless, they all insisted that women should nest in the inner house to teach their husbands and children, and should not interfere in any foreign affairs, and repeatedly said to Xu Ze, claiming that such doting is harmful.
Seeing that Zhang Mu, one of the representatives of the diehards, had released kindness to himself, Xu Hui suddenly felt that the trip was worth it. At this time, she naturally wouldn't brush Zhang Mu's kindness for a group of straw bales, so she yawned lightly and said, "I'm also a little tired after walking all night, so I'll bother Uncle Zhang and watch one or two for me!" ”
Seeing that Xu Hui was so tired that he couldn't even take care of his demeanor, Zhang Mu felt more and more guilty in his heart, and hurriedly said: "The humble position will definitely live up to the girl's trust!" ”
Ah Yuan, who watched this scene, also showed a sincere smile.
She has followed Xu Hui for many years, and naturally knows how much Xu Hui has paid to get everyone's recognition. Today, even the stubborn Zhang Mu is relieved, how can Ah Yuan not be happy for his lord?
Happy to be happy, Xu Hui's entrustment, Ah Yuan will not forget. After serving Xu Hui to sleep, Ah Yuan went to find Zhang Mu, his expression was soft, but he did not hide his sorrow: "The girl saw that the family sending team had not arrived for a long time, and even the wedding date had been delayed, for fear that something would happen to them, so she took us over in the starry night, and she couldn't eat well or sleep." After meeting the envoy, the girl had her first good night's sleep...... I wonder if you can borrow the stove and let me cook some food for the girl? (To be continued.) )
