Chapter 270: The Joy of Getting Zhang (1)
In the winter of November, heavy snow closed the road, and the big city of Xizhou, which had been sent for more than half a year, finally calmed down. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoThe people in the market are not idle, the trade has stopped, but the news in the streets, liquor stores, and restaurants is still continuous.
This day coincides with the heavy snow season, although Jiaohe City has little rain and snow, but the wind that roars over the green ridge unambiguously brings the cold together. On such days, the wine shop is naturally an excellent gathering place, with spicy wine syrup, fragrant and oily mutton, and miscellaneous hearsay, all of which are excellent things to keep out the cold.
The livelihood of the merchants has always relied on the protection of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, so every move of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, from the replacement of officials and generals, to the family affairs and in-laws of the officials, they can count them one by one and tell them eloquently.
At the banquet in the wine shop, there was a humane: "Do you know, who is the wife of the general Yunlu who was dispatched to lead the Xizhou soldiers in the middle of the year?" ā
Only this sentence, the volume is not loud, and it hooked many ears at once, when even someone squeezed over, "But that half-bearded General Yan?" ā
"It's him." Someone chimed in.
"That general has never shown his face, I have seen it twice, either alone or with the generals, a bad breath, so not terrifying, he was still alone, I don't want to have a wife and family." Someone shrank his head and said.
Immediately, someone refuted: "General Yunlu should be a third grade?" The big bureaucrats of the three products shouldn't have a group of wives and concubines, and a pile of children, right? How can I not have a wife? But dare to ask, which high-ranking lady is that general's wife? Dunhuang Bian's family, or Guzang Zhang's family? ā
Everyone turned their eyes to look at the person who started to speak, and he cleared his throat a little proudly: "Gaomen is really Gaomen, how beautiful is this lady......" He swept his eyes around, deliberately suppressing the words.
"You'd rather say it quickly." The impatient man slapped him on the shoulder, and the urging of questions made the atmosphere in the wine shop inexplicably tense.
The man took an unhurried sip of wine and squinted his eyes triumphantly: "She is...... The sister-in-law of General Ashina, who is said to have a Tang mother, was born like a Tang person. ā
There was silence all around, and in an instant, there was a commotion, "Isn't it your nonsense, the daughter of the Ashina family is also worthy of General Yunlu?" ā
The man was in a hurry, and put the wine bowl on the table: "If I talk nonsense, the beginning of spring will be called quicksand swallowing." ā
The merchant swore such a poisonous oath, and everyone taught him to be shocked, and they all calmed down again, and watched him take a bowl and eat the wine in the bowl in one gulp.
"I won't hide it from you, the general's wife, I met once through the curtain, just three or four months ago. I can also see clearly through the curtain that she is pregnant with a child, and when she looks at her figure, she really looks like a Tang person's body, and her belly is about this big. As he spoke, he gestured on his belly, "Count the days, and the delivery may be in these days." ā
Someone in the crowd immediately fell in love, and it has always been a good opportunity to climb the door, and it is not to be missed.
The man continued: "When the lady saw me, she asked me to buy the largest house in Luoshuifang next to the market. Look at this situation, it is necessary to live in Xizhou for a long time. ā
"The big mansion with a garden in Luoshuifang?" Someone in the audience sneered: "I said you are nonsense, where is Luoshuifang?" Near the market, but if you are an official, how can you live there and be neighbors with the merchants in the market? ā
The man slapped the table and said, "Why don't you want to, a certain finger line drawn by himself is a guarantee." ā
Someone in the wine shop gradually laughed secretly: what is the concubine, and he is half a Turkic barbarian, and he will not be able to choose a house, and he will live in Xizhou, and if he returns to Chang'an in the future, he will not be able to teach people to look down on him.
There are also people who have their brains turning quickly, and they quickly have a big plan in their hearts: if they are willing to place the house in a place like Luoshuifang, it can be seen that nine times out of ten they are a layman, and the layman is not as lonely and arrogant as the lonely, and it is probably not difficult to cling. If you climb to this level of relationship, the rice, grain, cloth, wine, meat, and food in the Xizhou military camp are all big deals.
Less than half of the people in the wine shop feel that the heavy snow has a lot of harvest this day, and it is not in vain.
ā¦ā¦
Feng Ling supported her waist and walked around in the newly purchased house, Xingye followed her closely with a frown, Feng Ling was not allowed to support her, she hung her arms, as if protecting a toddler, and followed suit.
Although the house cannot be compared with the deep mansion in Chang'an City, it is only one more than the house that Fu Yanyan stayed in Chang'an, but in this Xizhou Jiaohe City, it can be regarded as a bright and decent mansion.
She had already planned to move to Chang'anfang, near the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, where most of the official eunuchs of Xizhou lived. Fu Yanyan brought her to this house, and she was still in a trance like a dream,
"Now that you are both an official and a member of the Ashina clan, it is not good for you to do business in the open, but this has wronged you. But Gu Fang is your hard work after all, you just don't show up, hold the measure, and still manage the business at home. Merchants are prosperous here, and most of the eunuchs of the big clans are operating under their hands, and no one pays attention to them. When Fu Tanyan led her into the gate of the house, he explained: "I asked the Buddha to help me choose a place and place this house, which is close to Gu Fang, so that you can take charge of the affairs in Gu Fang." ā
Feng Ling was grateful in his heart, but he also had many concerns: "Ayan, I originally thought that Gu Fang would still be left to the Buddha slave to take care of, and it would be inconvenient for me to wrap it in after all." Businesses...... How utilitarian, if you know the connection between you and Gu Fang, I am afraid that it will not stop......"
Fu Yanyan held her waist, crossed the threshold of the second door, and said with a faint smile: "I'm afraid you're bored at home, those don't stop, just use it for pastime, isn't it?" ā
At this time, Feng Ling was strolling under a few big apricot trees in the garden, and suddenly tasted the taste of the words of Yanyan, what he meant in his words was that she was obsessed with causing trouble, and she wanted to fight poison with poison, and she would not stop to cure the merchants?
She suddenly became angry, her belly bulged day by day, but her brain turned slower and slower, and now even the flick and delay could oppress her on her tongue. She stroked her belly sadly, and couldn't help but wonder if the "non-stopping" that was about to follow would really be able to cope with it with her current brain.
Xingye patted her gently, "What are these bare trees so beautiful?" She pointed to the clearing in the corner of the garden and said, "According to me, some laurel trees should be planted here, so that I can teach my wife to have a noble son." ā
Feng Ling turned his head, held his waist and smiled bitterly: "I still gave birth to a noble son, who wants to suffer this stubble again......"
Before the words fell, her abdomen shrank suddenly, and a strange pain rose. She closed her mouth and stood silently for a while, and the next pain came over without hesitation.
"Xingye ......" Feng Ling reached over and grabbed Xingye's arm, "Go and call the midwife, and Ah Qi will also call her." ā
