127 Relatives of the Ho family
From the first day of the first month to the third day of the first lunar month, Wan Niang handed over several ways to play the card game she knew to Junsheng and the others, and also played with them for three days.
Because He's father and mother had passed away, he had only one younger brother, and his sister-in-law and two nephews didn't want to see her, so he obeyed Wanniang's words and didn't go back.
Every day, if I have nothing to do, I take my children to the village and talk to the villagers.
Of course, the most traveled were a few acquaintances.
On the fourth day of the first lunar month, Wan Niang took the things she had bought a long time ago and followed Zhang Chenghu to several well-friended families in the village early in the morning to visit the New Year.
According to the rules of Phoenix Village, before the third year of junior high school, you can't go anywhere to pay New Year's greetings except to your parents' home.
It was done in the morning, and before noon, the brother and sister went home empty-handed.
And the guards in Wan Niang's house also arrived at the time of handover, but the two guards were reluctant to leave, and they both wanted to stay and play card games.
Before, I could only listen to Junsheng and them play happily together, because they were on duty, they could only endure their curiosity, now it's okay, someone is coming to take over, and the two told Zhou Hao that they don't want to go back to the camp, they want to stay, and let Zhou Hao go and tell Junsheng.
Of course Junsheng doesn't mind, there are two more people in the family, and the safety can be more guaranteed, originally at the beginning, he also planned to put four people by Wan Niang's side, but Wan Niang has been unwilling, so only two of them remained.
These two are two brothers, the eldest is called Wang Feng, and the younger is called Wang Yun, and the age difference is only two years. His parents died early, and he was sent to the barracks by his relatives, and later he was taken by Junsheng and dropped two of them to be his guards.
The ones who came to take over were Liu Yansong, who went to the capital to ask for news, and another named Feng Jie.
Junsheng has twelve cronies and guards around him, all of whom are soldiers between the ages of twenty and thirty, and they are all the kind of soldiers who have no family burden, that is, their parents have gone and they have not yet married.
Among them, Zhou Hao and a man named Peng Wu are the most trusted by Junsheng.
In addition to the five who are now in Wan Niang's house, the other five are waiting for orders in Qinggangtun, and Peng Wu and the other are arranged in the capital by Junsheng.
As soon as Liu Yansong and Feng Jie came, they heard the Wang Feng brothers boast about their general's wife, saying that the lady was wise and invented a mulberry leaf card, which was very fun, Brother Hao lost these two days, and then they learned how to play the mulberry leaf card here and then played for two days before returning to Qinggangtun, and then told the brothers about Brother Hao's troubles.
Feng Jie usually likes to gamble when he is idle, but Liu Yansong is not interested.
In the afternoon, there were more Wang Feng brothers.
A few big men played, and Wan Niang was doing things in the house.
It's been three days since I let go, and there's a whole bunch of things to do.
The matter of Drunken Immortal Building, the matter of Xiuzhuang, and the first script written for Liyuan, as well as the things I wanted to prepare for the Zhaoyang dowry, and the general plan after going to the capital.
This can't be done for ten days and a half months.
Zhang Chenghu had already decided to set off for Beijing at the tenth day of the first lunar month, first, to take care of the general's palace in the capital, and second, to take up the position of the military department given by the emperor.
He followed Wan Niang.
Wan Niang decided to set off at the end of March, and after settling down in the capital, she still had time to help the He family prepare for Zhang Chenghu's marriage.
Junsheng will also go to Beijing after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, but he will also go back to Phoenix Village to pick up Wanniang and them at that time.
Wan Niang was writing a play book, and Lin Xia came to call her outside.
"Madam, there is a guest at home, the old lady will let you go!"
Lin Xia was older than Lin Qiu, and he had been with Zhaoyang for a period of time, and his rules were better than Lin Qiu's.
"I see! You go and tell your mother, and I'll go in a while. ”
Wan Niang stopped writing and promised in her mouth, but in her heart she was thinking about who the guest who came to her house at this time.
It is impossible for the people in the village to let her mother have to call her.
Who could that be?
After tidying up the table, Wan Niang walked towards the hall.
As soon as she entered the house, Wan Niang saw that Zhang Chenghu and Junsheng were also there.
Then in the hall sat a chubby man in his early thirties, next to a woman of the same age who was very difficult to get along with. There are three children on the side, one looks sixteen or seventeen, looks good, but the expression is very disdainful, and the other is about ten years old, looking round, eating the snacks on the table without any image. At the end of the seat was a very thin little girl of eleven or twelve, with her head bowed.
The fat man and the difficult woman were talking to Ho.
The woman saw Wan Niang enter the house, and walked up before Wan Niang could react.
took Wan Niang's hand and choked up: "My eldest niece, you are finally bitter, my aunt loves you the most, I have long known that you are a good fate, look!" Now that Junsheng is back, this is handsome and rich! ”
Wan Niang understood, this was her uncle's family who hadn't been in contact for a long time.
Uncle He Daming is He's younger brother, and his aunt is Zhao Yuzhu Zhao. The few people sitting there were his cousins and cousins, He Dalang, He Erlang, and He Yunniang.
Except for He Yunniang, Wanniang really doesn't have much of a good impression of the others.
She pulled out her hand without a trace and said, "Wan Niang has seen my uncle and aunt, and I know that my uncle and aunt love me, but I haven't seen me for too many years, and I can't even recognize anyone!" Uncle and aunt don't mind! ”
"No, it's okay! I haven't seen Wan Niang for years! ”
He Daming laughed.
After listening to Wan Niang's words, Zhao felt that Wan Niang was not as good as before, and what she meant in her words was that this uncle had not helped her family over the years.
He Daming said this again, confirming Wanniang's statement.
Zhao glared at He Daming, and then looked at Zhang Chenghu and Junsheng, for fear that the two would have ideas, and only after seeing that the faces of the two did not change, he calmed down and said: "You kid, you are still petty, I have had a hard time with your uncle in the past few years, and I have been busy day and night!" Da Lang and Erlang are going to enter the school, this Da Lang has already passed the children's exam, and he will take the Xiucai test in the spring. ”
actually watched Zhang Chenghu speak, and didn't take He Shi into his eyes at all.
Wan Niang looked at He Dalang with a disdainful face, only to see that when he heard He say that Dalang had passed the children's exam, his expression of disdain was still proud, and he had no good impression of this family in his heart.
"Oh!"
Wan Niang didn't answer and sat down next to Yun Niang.
When Zhao saw Wanniang like this, he despised it in his heart.
Hum! Isn't it just marrying a businessman? After my eldest man is admitted to the top prize, I don't want to come to see the faces of you people.
But he said with a smile on his face: "I said eldest sister, now Huzi is a general, and this niece and son-in-law is also the son of a rich family, do you see if they let them help my family!" ”
After speaking, he also glared at He Daming.
He Daming nodded hurriedly and said, "That's right!" Sister, help the kids! (To be continued.) )
