Chapter 446: Annunciation
Taicang wrote again, I don't know what will happen. Thinking so, the family did not rush to open the letter, but served hot tea and fruits to entertain Wu Wang's family.
"The Lu family just came back? It's also about to be the New Year, didn't they go to Taicang a year ago? Zhang asked.
"Yes, I just came back. A few years ago, I guess I shouldn't have gotten there. But it's okay, you have to carry letters, things or something, there are still others in our town, just say it when the time comes. Wu Wang said.
"Aunt Wu, do you buy mutton and beef this year?" Lian Man'er asked Wu Wang's Dao.
"What, you want to buy it?" Wu Wang asked.
"Hmm." Lian Man'er nodded, because there are very few beef and mutton sellers in the town, and if you want to buy it, you have to find someone to book it in advance.
"How much do you want to buy?" Wu Wangshi asked again.
Chapter 446 Annunciation: "I want to buy more." Lian Man'er said, "It's okay to buy the whole one." ”
"That's easy. I went back and told Jiaxing and his father that they were going to the west in the next two days, so they would simply buy a sheep for you, kill it there, and bring back the meat, and buy the beef there. Wu Wang said, "It just so happens that we also want to buy beef and mutton." ”
About 100 miles to the west of the camp is a village of the Hui people. They have many sheep and beef cattle. Because the distance is so far, there are very few people who sell beef and mutton to sell. Wu Yugui and Wu Jiaxing were going over there, and they happened to buy beef and mutton and came back, which was really good.
After chatting for a while, Lian Shouxin went out.
When Wu Wangshi saw that Lian Shouxin had gone out, he coughed and glanced at Zhang.
Wu Wang's family once said that he would pay attention to the news in Taicang for them. When Zhang saw Wu Wang's like this, he had some understanding.
"This old Lu family is from Taicang, our old man, old lady and Dafang are over there, nothing is wrong, right?" Zhang lowered his voice and asked Wu Wang.
"There's really one thing about this," Wu Wang said with a smile. "It's a good thing."
"What's good?" Lian Man'er interjected and asked.
"It's a good thing in your second room, I guess you can all guess the 446th chapter of the good news." It's San Lang, who is married to the seventh girl in the old Wang's car shop, and he will be married at the end of this month. "I guess I'll give you a letter. That's it. Wu Wang said with a smile.
"Oh, it's done." Zhang also smiled, and told Wu Wang's about the last time they went to Taicang, they went to the old Wang's big car shop, San Lang was also with them, and how Wang Qi's girl entertained them.
“…… Anyone with eyes can see that the seventh girl has taken a fancy to San Lang. Speaking of which. This girl is really spicy, and she is so bold that she can look at San Lang's good eyes. Zhang laughed, and then asked, "Is this San Lang's marriage, or is it a marriage?" ”
"It's the Wang family who recruited you Sanlang." Wu Wangshi said.
"It's still a redundancy. Old man, and Saburo's father and mother all agreed? Zhang said. This sentence is not a question, just to express her surprise.
This era. There is still prejudice against the matter of recruitment. Ordinary people, no matter how poor they are. I don't want my son to go to someone else's house to get married. Old Man Lian is a person with deep-rooted traditional thoughts, and Zhang originally thought that it would be difficult for Old Man Lian to agree to San Lang to join him.
"It's been a generation, San Lang's matter is mainly decided by the two of you in the second room." Wu Wang said: "It just so happens that they have many sons. The Wang family has no son, and there is only this old girl left in the family, who is kept for the elderly, and the large family business in the future must be inherited by her and San Lang. ”
"It's a family business. You don't have to pay a penny for the second room, everything is prepared by the old Wang family. In addition, they also gave you a sum of money for the second room. ”
"I heard that all the documents for the entry have been signed, and San Lang will enter the account of the old Wang family in the future. The three members of the old Wang family all like San Lang, and the old couple is anxious to hold their grandson. It is set to be married on the eighteenth day of this month. ”
"How much silver did the Wang family give us for the second room?" Zhang thought for a moment and asked again.
"I heard that this is the ......," Wu Wang stretched out his hand and gestured.
"Yes, how much?"
"One hundred taels." Wu Wangshi said: "I heard that there are other clothes, shoes and feet for San Lang, his father and his mother, which is the condition for the two of them to negotiate with the Wang family." ”
If San Lang is marrying a daughter-in-law, he wants to give a dowry and hold a banquet, and he needs huā money. In addition, I am afraid that I have to prepare a house. Now it's a good thing, I don't even need a penny of Shouyi and He's money, but I get a lot of things and a full hundred taels of silver.
A hundred taels of silver, that's twenty acres of good land, and if you change it to medium land, it's twenty-five acres.
Lian Man'er couldn't help but sigh when she thought of this. She is now full of being a landlord, and when she encounters the matter of money, she almost instinctively converts it into land in her mind.
"It's a good thing. San Lang's child, good-looking, people don't have any heart, I think that Wang Qi girl is a strong, idea-like, hard-tempered person. In this life, if both of them are hard-tempered, it must be noisy. This one is soft, the other is hard, just right. The old Wang family is living a good life, and San Lang can also live a good life in the future. Zhang was silent for a while, then said.
"No, outside here, there are a lot of red-eyed people, all saying that you San Lang looks good, so you can do such a good thing." Wu Wang smiled and said, "This matter, are you still going?" ”
"I'll discuss with the child's father in a while," Zhang said, "Look, it's all at the end of the year." ”
"No, I don't think you can leave. In this cold winter, the road is not easy to walk. I'll keep an eye on you to see who goes to Taicang in the past few days, and if you give a gift, you just bring it over. ”
"I don't know if Lao Zhao's family is still going to anyone?" Zhang said.
"I just remembered what you said, and theirs." Wu Wang laughed twice, "I guess, they should go." Now, they are quite close to Taicang. ”
"It's close." Zhang nodded.
Last time, I went to milk Zhao Xiu'e and add boxes to Lian Xiu'er, but after the Zhang family came back, several members of the Zhao family lived in Taicang for several days before they came back. And the big bag and small bag got a lot of things back, and when asked, the Zhao family said that it was given by Zhao Xiu'e.
After coming back, Zhao Wencai got busy, and when he met people, he said that he was doing things for the county lord in Taicang. A few days later, Zhao Wencai went to Taicang again. And he didn't go alone, he was accompanied by two carriages. In one carriage sat Zhou Zhutou and his wife, and in the other carriage, Zhou Zhutou's father-in-law, a master in the former Jinyang County Yali.
Later, Lian Man'er heard someone learn from Lian Shouxin and Zhang's family, saying that Zhao Wencai told people that Lian Xiancheng was in charge of Taicang's prison, but there were no cronies around him who were familiar with criminal prison affairs.
This person is Zhou Zhutou, the son of the Zhou family next door to the Zhao family, Zhou Zhutou's father-in-law, it is said that he is a famous knife and pen master in Jinyang County, who has been rolling in criminal and prison affairs for half his life, and is a very experienced jack-of-all-trades, which can be called the old oilman in the yamen.
The person introduced by Zhao Wencai naturally wanted to be close to Lian Shouyi. Does this mean that Lian Shouyi is deeply involved in Lian Shouren's yamen affairs? Even Zhao Xiu'e, will she have some kind of say because of this?
Even Man'er thinks it's very possible. Lian Shouyi has long been looking forward to relying on Lian Shouren to be a powerful and rich lord, and Zhao Xiu'e prides herself on being talented, but she never wants to be left behind.
However, Lian Man'er felt a little strange that Zhou Zhutou and his master and father-in-law gave up their errands in the county and went to Taicang, which was hundreds of miles away and was unfamiliar with the place.
"It is said that it is better to be raw than cooked", Lian Man'er once asked Wu Yugui and Wu Jiaxing, "Why are they willing?" ”
"Of course, it's because of the promises there." Wu Yugui replied with a smile at the time, "This Master Feng is here, just one of several masters, Zhou Zhutou, is actually a team leader." Over there, as your uncle's cronies, this Master Feng is the first place in the master's position, Zhou Zhutou, should be running for the position of the chief catcher. ”
That time, Zhao Wencai came back from Taicang, and he didn't have any empty hands, and it was still a big bag of things. Moreover, there are rumors that Zhao Wencai's son is going to Taicang, saying that Zhao Xiu'e helped find a good reason in the yamen.
The Zhao family is so close to Taicang, San Lang is married, it seems that they will definitely go.
After talking about San Lang, Wu Wangshi looked at Zhang's family, and he was a little speechless.
"Is there anything else?" Zhang asked, "No matter what it is, just say it." Our two families, there is nothing else we can't say. ”
"This is the case" Wu Wang smiled, "That's it, I heard about it, I don't know if it's true or not." ”
"Let's talk about it, let's just chat. Don't worry, I know it all in my heart, let's say something. Zhang said.
"Then I'll just say it,...... That Yingzi, did you go to Taicang? Wu Wang didn't say what was the matter, but asked Zhang first.
"Yes, the day we came back. To say, this girl can listen to it. Zhang said.
"No," Wu Wang pouted, "I heard that this Yingzi, let your old lady call the shots, and give it to the county lord." ”
"What?" Zhang was drinking water, and when he heard this, he was so shocked that he almost choked, "This is...... Divorced his eldest aunt? ”!!!
