Shang Xiao's eyes were shining, and he wanted to ask for it, but he didn't dare to be presumptuous, for fear of hurting Meng's heart.

Shang Jun said: "Since Shang Xiao wants to go back to his hometown to farm, give it to him!" ”

Meng Shi said "you ......", but did not refute.

Su Yan ordered Bai Ying to hand two things to Shang Jun, after all, after being a criminal minister, he can also be literate, he glanced at it and handed it to Shang Xiao, "Live well in the countryside, since you are the girl that your sister picked for you, it must be very good." As for me...... I have my own plans. ”

Shang Xiao hurriedly said: "Brother, I don't want it alone, even if it's our brothers', you have seventy acres, I have sixty acres, and I will help you in the countryside." ”

Shang Jun responded: "It's worth it with your words!" When I got married, I had a word with me, and I went to the countryside to eat and drink. ”

Meng Shi said angrily: "Shang Jun, what are your plans, tell me." ”

Meng Shangjun seemed to have made a lot of determination, and his face was embarrassed, "I want to be a nursing home for a big family." ”

Shang Xiaodao: "Sister, my brother has always wanted to be a general, this is the last wish of the eldest brother, it's just ...... was calculated by Shangwu, and caused the eldest brother to lose his life. ”

Meng heard from their brother that the person who saved the general back then was obviously Meng Shangli, but it was Meng Shangwu who was rewarded and promoted later. Meng Shangwu was afraid that the truth would be revealed, so he made a ruthless calculation that Meng Shangli lost his life.

Meng Shangjun and Meng Shangxiao originally knew, and Shangli told them on his deathbed that they should pretend not to know, otherwise Meng Shangwu would harm them for the sake of his future. In order to survive, the two brothers have pretended not to know for so many years, but now that they have met Meng, they have revealed the truth.

"I want to be a squire......" he said in a low voice. I know it. Compared to the martial arts of the guards. I'm still a lot behind. If it doesn't work, it will be a nursing home. ”

Su Yan thought deeply, and felt that Shang Jun was a smart person early in the morning, so he really had an idea, frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said: "It's not difficult to be a guard, I'll talk to the prince when I go back." Ask him to introduce you to the prison guard or the thousand cow guard. As long as you are willing to pay attention, you will have a bright future. ”

Meng Shangjun saw that Su Yan was willing to help, and his face was grateful, if he begged to come to the door in the northwest, the other party might not be willing to pay attention to him, but now it was just a sentence that he was embarrassed about, and Su Yan had a reply, "The grass people are all over the ground, and it is difficult to repay the princess's kindness!" ”

Su Yan said: "You are serious again. He raised his head and smiled, "A few days ago." I bought a new courtyard with two entrances in the imperial city, and the house was not big. There are two courtyards inside. Since you are going to stay in the city, I will give you there. It's just that I can't give it to you until you get married and start a family. ”

Meng Shi whispered "Su Yan", groped around for a while, and got a lot of silver when he entered the courtyard for the second time, took the money bag and stuffed it into Su Yan's hand, Su Yan pushed and said: "The third sister-in-law's money is still kept for future expenses." Shang Xiao is about to get married, and there is little money to spend. In the first half of the year, I bought some subordinates in my house, and there was a couple with two sons, so they were domestic servants for Shangxiao, and it was also appropriate for two small maids to help line them in the countryside Zhuangzi. She also prepared a family of four, a couple and a pair of children, and left it to Shang Jun when Shang Jun got married in the future.

Early in the morning, Su Yan didn't want to mention the new second courtyard in the imperial city. She saw that Meng Shangjun was a promising person in the future, and if she wanted to use him, she had to use some thoughts early in the morning to let him remember himself and remember the great kindness given to him by the palace. When he is used in the future, he will be able to do his best.

Su Yan and Bai Zhi made a look, and Bai Zhi folded into it again and took the deed of sale, "Let this family of slaves go with Shang Xiao today." The third sister-in-law happened to go to the countryside to help with some inappropriateness, and some inappropriate things also happened to teach Shang Xiao. ”

Meng Shi looked uneasy, and didn't think that Su Yan thought about it properly, "I...... I owe you such a big favor, but how can I be good? It costs a lot of money to buy this, I ...... "She can't give Su Yan such silver, just the more than 100 acres of grange in the suburbs."

Su Yan smiled: "In the future, I still have a place to ask the third sister-in-law for help, and the third sister-in-law only needs to deal with me in two things." ”

"Two things ......" Meng Shi was suspicious, she was a monk who practiced in the colorless hermitage, how could she help Su Yan, but she did help in saving Cui Shan.

Su Yan said: "The third sister-in-law can rest assured, it will not be a bad thing, it is not a bad thing, it will definitely be something that the third sister-in-law can do." ”

Meng snorted, since it was not a bad thing, she couldn't refuse, Su Yan helped her a lot, that is, Su Yan took back the Meng family brothers It was a big deal, "I agreed!" ”

Su Yan turned her head to Bai Zhi and said, "Go find the Korean matchmaker, and ask her to go to the mountain village behind Tianlong Temple to talk to the matchmaker." ”

Bai Zhi responded, went outside, and ordered Tian He to do it, Tian He likes to do errands the most, and talked about it in detail, Tian He also understood it, and took the order to leave.

Meng immediately took his leave, led Meng Shangxiao's brothers to Xiaowanzhuang, and took a family of four domestic slaves from the second housekeeper.

The Korean matchmaker heard that the two families had said it once, and Gu Xiucai was also very satisfied, so she went to the people's village non-stop.

Gu Xiucai dispersed his studies, called the aunt next door who was familiar with him, and took the carriage prepared by the Korean matchmaker to Xiaowanzhuang to see each other.

Meng originally thought that there were a lot of things on the Zhuangzi, but when he arrived in the east courtyard, he found that the tables, wooden beds, and mattresses were all complete.

The two courtyards are of average size, with five main rooms, with a larger hall in the middle and two on the left and right; On the right is three side rooms, which can be used as a room for subordinates, and on the left is a kitchen, a storeroom, and a miscellaneous room. There is a bluestone road paved in the center of the courtyard, one end is connected to the hall house, and the other end is connected to the courtyard gate, and a sign is hung on the door, which reads "East Courtyard".

At the back of the east and west courtyards, there is a row of houses, only three, but only two gates, and there is a plaque "Meng's family ancestral hall" hanging on the door, and the house is built solemnly and quietly. A few pines and cypresses were planted on both sides of the ancestral hall, like green flags. Meng Shi looked at this courtyard, more and more like a home, and the feeling of helplessness suddenly landed.

She had to help their brother take care of the place, and the spiritual tablets of her grandfather, father, and ancestors had to be placed in the family ancestral hall and worshiped by the children and grandchildren.

Meng Shangxiao was full of joy when he saw it, and there were also mattresses and other things in the room, although the tent hung in the house was seventy percent new. But it is the cloth of the finest sting.

There was an incense table on the hall. There are the words "etiquette housekeeping" hanging on it. There is also a good couplet, the painting is the "Fu Lu Shou" three immortal paintings, such paintings are many in the rural towns, you can buy one for a few lines of money, full of the atmosphere of the village village households.

In the middle of the hall there was a large square table with four benches, as in most households.

The family that came with Meng Shangxiao was surnamed Gui, and the middle-aged man was called Gui Bo. His wife is called Aunt Gui, and his two sons are called Gui Dazhu and the other is Gui Erzhu.

Gui Erzhu came to report: "Master, the Korean matchmaker brought Gu Xiu to arrive, and an aunt surnamed Huang from the people's village came over." ”

The grandmother beside Meng went to the wing room and called Aunt Gui, "Hurry up and boil water to make tea." ”

There are several small drawers under the incense table in the hall, and usually such people will put the tea leaves in the small drawer, and the other small smoke will be used to put incense wax, offerings and other things.

Mama tried to open it, and she really found tea inside, which is also the ordinary jasmine tea that is often eaten by rural people.

Aunt Huang and Gu Xiucai came in. Looking around, Aunt Huang hurriedly said, "Your Ye'er is a good person." Look, it's a solid little family. ”

Gu Xiucai said: "Let's look at the people first!" ”

Entering the hall, Aunt Huang looked around, the more she looked, the more she boasted, it was really a rare good family, why didn't her daughter meet, if it was a few years later, fortunately it would be a good relative of her daughter.

Meng welcomed a few people to the hall to sit, served tea, and Mama asked Aunt Gui to boil eggs, two of the three distinguished guests, and it was a good omen to go on a blind date, which was the rule of the countrymen.

Shang Xiaozhi is on a blind date, and he is a little nervous at this time, but he can also see his appearance.

Meng said: "My younger brother served in the army in the northwest in his early years, which was originally left by his ancestors, and he only recently bought it back. Somewhat shy. She winked at Shang Xiao.

Shang Xiao plucked up his courage and hurriedly said: "Mr. Gu rest assured......" His lips trembled, he was too nervous, he didn't think that he would marry a blind date in a few days after returning to the imperial city, which he couldn't think of in the past, "If you ...... Give me my daughter, and I will treat her well. If she gives birth to a son to our Meng family, I will treat her even better......"

Gu Xiucai saw that he spoke clearly, although he stammered a little, he looked nervous, so he answered in a low voice, did not speak, walked around the courtyard, and looked at the east courtyard.

Gui Bo said: "My grandfather also has an elder brother, who wants to stay in the city. The east courtyard is left for him, if he becomes a relative, the lord and the ancient girl live in the west courtyard. ”

The west courtyard is also quite large, the house is big enough, and it is rare to have more than 100 acres of fertile land, which is rare in the countryside.

Gu Xiucai was very satisfied, and immediately discussed with Huang Pozi, and decided to book it, if you don't set it again, you will be snatched away by others, there are good people here, I am afraid that others will definitely come to find the voice, and the threshold here must not be broken when the time comes.

asked the tenants in the village, saying that there was a gentleman who could tell fortunes, and when he invited him to join the two of them, Meng went back to the house and prepared a Geng post.

The fortune teller immediately boasted, "a match made in heaven", Gu Xiucai was full of joy, and Meng took a silver hairpin as a token, and this family affair was settled. Immediately, he asked the fortune teller to choose an auspicious day to marry a newlyweds before the year.

Meng stayed in Xiaowanzhuang to help Shang Xiao take care of the family's chores, Shang Xiao went to the field again, and knew that there was a new harvest of grain in the treasury this year, and counted that there were many bags, enough for the family to eat for a year, and his heart became more and more happy.

Meng Shangjun feels at home at the moment, Shang Xiao stays in the countryside, he goes to the imperial city to seek development, no matter how he thinks, it is the most suitable. There is also one of his yards and his fertile fields. Since Shang Xiao dreamed of being a solid and wealthy banker, he was left to go.

*

Su Yan listened to Bai Zhi's reply. Meng Shangxiao and Gu Ye'er's family affairs were very smooth, and the auspicious day was set on the sixth day of the lunar month.

Meng and Xiao Liu died early in their previous lives, but in this life, their mother and son can be in danger, although Meng is still alive, when she leaves the Jiang family to go to the nunnery, her heart is also dead. No, her heart can't die, she has Xiaoliu, and she still has the Meng brothers to take care of. If a person has too many bonds, he will not die, and his heart will not be dead.

Su Yan asked: "Yu Pan'er's in-law Qi family, it seems that there is an eldest sister." (To be continued......)
