In the past six months, taking the opportunity to marry Brother Ping's daughter-in-law, Xiao Shiji and Du Hengshuang have done a lot of work in Chang'an, and the two have become very high-profile with their usual attitude.

In order to marry a daughter-in-law for the first time in 20 years, the Xiao family showed staggering financial resources and power.

In the past six months, the most common words between the high families of Chang'an City are "Have you got the invitation of the Xiao family?" ”

"I heard that this wedding banquet is unusual, and it is almost the same as when the crown prince married the crown princess."

"Really? Who do you listen to? ”

"Do you want to listen to others? My brother-in-law's cousin-in-law's eldest aunt has a good relationship with the Lu family, the Lu family and the Xiao family are in-laws, and they know the roots! ”

"Yes, yes, I have also heard of it, saying that although it is in the month of Layue, Mrs. Qin still sent someone to Anxi, quickly whipped the horse, and transported countless summer fruits to Chang'an."

"Oh, those horse teams? Is it to carry the fruit of the wedding? ”

"Is this still fake? I saw it with my own eyes. Purple grapes, yellow cantaloupe, fist-sized plums, bowl-sized apples, and all sorts of novelties that I can't name, were all transported to the Zhuguo Mansion one by one. This month, there are always thousands of horses transporting these things from Anxi to Chang'an. ”

"More than fruit. I heard that the furnishings used for the wedding were all picked and transported from Jiangnan, and more than 100 fast boats traveled between Chang'an and Jiangnan day and night. The rice used for the wedding was brought from the northeast. The seafood comes from Dongshan County, which is near the sea, and the pork, beef and mutton are all carefully fed with grain from their own Zhuangzi. The vegetables were planted in a curtain cave in the mountains outside the city, and there was a fire in the cave. The temperature is high, so you can eat vegetables and vegetables in winter. ”

"Yes, yes, needless to say, those dowries, only you haven't seen them, and there is no one who can't take them. I heard that half of the stores in Chang'an East City are the owners behind the scenes, Mrs. Qin Guo...... Tsk, it's really a big deal, it's all for her son to marry a daughter-in-law. ”

The speaker's eyebrows fluttered, and the listener was dumbfounded. were stunned by the luxury of the Xiao family.

The Xiao family is powerful and powerful, and they know the way. But this is the first time they have realized such wealth.

They knew that the Xiao family was not bad for money, but they never thought that the Xiao family's financial resources could be so terrifying!

These words reached the ears of some people. It's just tossing and turning. Sleepless nights.

Mu Yelai is one of the most painful.

Xiao Shi's achievements and power in this life. It has long been much more than the previous life.

At this time in the previous life, Xiao Shi died early. Where did all this glory and wealth come from, full of children and grandchildren?

Late at night. Mu Yelai sat in the dim room in a daze, thinking about his reborn life, his heart was bitter and bitter, but there was no sweetness.

When she was first reborn, she firmly believed that she was the most beloved woman in Xiao Shi and her previous life, so she wanted to lean towards him like a moth to a fire at all costs. And she believes that the sooner she gets it, the more happiness she will get in this life.

But the result? She was injured worse than in the previous life, and she was defeated even worse than the previous life!

She took a bronze mirror and looked at the person in the mirror with her eyes wide open.

Although the light is not good, and the bronze mirror is not clear about people, she can still see that the people in the bronze mirror have long been ruined......

Her face was scratched by Feng Pei Dun's whip, and she didn't get timely treatment, and her face was ruined like this.

And because the injury was too serious that time, her lungs have not been relieved so far, and she coughed so much that she couldn't breathe in a rainy weather.

She sat like this all night, unable to sleep at all.

As soon as it was dawn the next day, someone came and asked her to come and do her work.

Her job is much easier now than before. She only needs to teach a few women the rules.

Feng Niangzi gave her the job, let her teach these women, as long as she teaches these women everything she knows. Including her walking posture, dressing habits, as well as her favorite food, words she likes to speak, songs she loves to sing, and dances she loves to dance, all of them must be taught to these women in every detail.

Mu Yelai originally worked as a coolie in the Feng family's Zhuangzi.

After Feng Pei Dun's death, her life was better.

Later, the eldest lady of the Feng family, Shao Shi, transferred her out of Zhuangzi and sent her to this courtyard to make her a parenting mother.

Her deed of sale was in the hands of the Shaw Family, and she also heard people talk about what happened to Meng'er after she was kicked out of the city, so she didn't dare to think about anything else, just to be her nurturing mother here.

When it was time for lunch, Mu Ye came to eat with several women she had raised.

Feng Niangzi unexpectedly came to the other courtyard with the Shao family to see them.

"After eating, let's go out to see the world." Feng Niangzi smiled authentically.

"What kind of world do you see?"

"Today is a big day for the prince of Zhuguo to get married, let's go and see the excitement." Feng Niangzi said as she glanced at Mu Yelai with a smile.

Mu Yelai had already known the news of Lu Dao, but he didn't know that Lu Dao still had the opportunity to see the grand scene with his own eyes.

"Yes, yes! Feng Niangzi, when are we going out? The women hurriedly asked.

"Have you finished eating? After eating, we went to change our clothes, and after changing our clothes, we left. ”

Anguo Mansion and Zhuguo Mansion are both in Chongkangfang, in fact, Sister Zheng got married, which is the distance from Anguo Mansion to Zhuguo Mansion, the neighbor next door.

But real marriage can't be so perfunctory.

Brother Ping personally chose the route of marrying, after coming out of the Anguo Mansion, he wanted to go out of Chongkang Fang, walk around Chang'an Zhuque Street, and then return to the Zhuguo Mansion in Chongkang Fang.

So even if they don't have an invitation, they can still see the demeanor of the groom's official on the street.

If you are lucky, you can also see Xiao Shi, the Duke of Zhuguo, and Du Hengshuang, the wife of Qin, who came out to greet him.

Everything is to show that this eldest daughter-in-law is extremely satisfied with them.

The Zhuguo Mansion was also full of relatives and friends from all over the world at this time.

Fang Yuniang sat in Du Hengshuang's room. I couldn't stop crying. Of course, all tears of joy.

“…… When you got married, I was so worried. In the blink of an eye, you have married your daughter, and you are going to pick up your daughter-in-law again. Fang Yuniang was full of emotion, thinking of Du Xiancheng who was far away, she was even more gloomy.

Approaching Du Hengshuang's ear, Fang Yuniang asked softly, "...... Your dad, is there any news lately? ”

Du Hengshuang shook his head, "No." I don't even know where Daddy Lu Dao went. There is no place to send letters. ”

"Ugh." Fang Yuniang wiped her tears with a handkerchief. "I hope he can find someone and live a good life."

Du Hengshuang didn't take over the conversation, but changed the topic and said, "Today is the Lord's day. A hundred and fifty chefs over there in the kitchen should be enough, right? ”

Speaking of the luxury of today's ceremony. Even people like Fang Yuniang, who are used to being big-hearted, feel a little unbearable. She asked worriedly, "You're putting on a show like this." Aren't you afraid that the official will go to your majesty to join you? ”

Du Hengshuang smiled nonchalantly: "The mouth grows on other people's bodies, and I am willing to talk about it." Our money is all earned by ourselves, and who doesn't like it. Let him reason with me. "They didn't take bribes, they're afraid of being big?!

In fact, she didn't tell Fang Yuniang that someone had already gone to visit Xiao Shiji under His Majesty, saying that he was "arrogant and lascivious", "extravagant and wasteful", and in the name of marrying a daughter-in-law, he went around collecting money and disturbing the people...... But this book was pressed down by His Majesty.。

Xiao Shihe doesn't need a good reputation now, and Du Hengshuang also agrees.

Besides, in the name of holding a big ceremony, they are actually reining in their own power.

Xiao Shiji had already received permission from Emperor Yonghui to vigorously expand his military power and control the local affairs of Fanyang in the name of preparing for war against the Turks, which had completely replaced the assassin history.

The history of the assassin now only has the power of civil affairs, and the financial power and military power have been owned by the Jiedu Envoy.

Du Hengshuang took the opportunity to order the Shi brothers to send the war horses of Anxi Racecourse over.

On the pretext of sending fruits to the big wedding, they sent the best war horses to Fanyang through Chang'an to equip the Xiao family army there.

Xiao Shihe founded the martial arts hall back then, and now it is fruitful, and the middle-level and above officers in the Xiao family's army have all come out of his martial arts hall and control the army like an iron bucket.

When the Shi brothers saw the grand occasion of Xiao Jiajun in Fanyang City, their brains were hot, and they also signed up to join Xiao Jiajun.

Now he is also the number one leader in the Xiao family's army.

Brother Yang had some problems with the Shi brothers, but for his mother's sake, he also bluntly said that he would keep them far away and not mix with his power.

If the Central Plains wants to fight with the Turks, the biggest shortcoming is in the war horse.

There are no good horses in the Central Plains, and good horses come from the Western Regions.

The war horses of the Turks cannot be compared with those of the Western Regions.

Du Hengshuang took a fancy to this point at the beginning, so he had an idea and took Anxi Horse Farm out of Muhou Mansion and held it in his own hands.

It's not that she doesn't trust Xiao Shiji, but until now, she still feels that only she is the most reliable.

She and Xiao Shiji have a relationship of equality and mutual assistance, not a silk flower that depends on him to survive.

Xiao Shiji is also full of praise for Du Hengshuang's horse farm.

Although he didn't have this horse farm, he could still get war horses, but compared to this horse farm that could provide a steady stream of good war horses, it was still far behind.

When fighting, no aspect can be taken lightly, let alone a very important war horse resource?

As soon as Brother Ping'er's wedding is over, Xiao Shiji is about to put on armor and go into battle.

Fang Yuniang didn't know about these things, she was only worried that these two people would be careless and make Her Majesty unhappy, so she persuaded her here, "Restrain yourself, why bother?" made people red-eyed, and they all went to His Majesty's place to counsel and a copy, and the three of them became tigers. ”

"Mother, I know the truth." Du Hengshuang smiled and played Tai Chi, "Mother, my brother and sister are pregnant again, right?" I saw that she was fat again. ”

"yes, yes, it's been two months, you can see that?" Fang Yuniang was immediately distracted. She loves her little daughter-in-law Xiahou Wushuang the most. Xiahou Wushuang is also very competitive, both filial and childlike, and his temperament is becoming more and more kind, compared to the proud little girl at the beginning.

Du Hengshuang smiled slightly, and heard the report from the next person that the sedan chair was coming, so he put on a big coat and took a few mothers-in-law out of the second door together.

Xiao Shihe was standing in front of the second door wearing a dark brown Fuzi Tuanhua, watching her come over, stretched out his hand to hold her arm, and said with a smile: "It's cold outside, you didn't bring a hand warmer?" ”

Du Hengshuang shook his head, "Wait a minute, it's inconvenient to take that one." ”

The two walked out of the city together.

Coming to the gate, Xiao Shi and Fu Du Hengshuang got on her sweaty BMW, and then they also got on their own black horses, and the two walked side by side to the gate of Chongkang Fang.

As soon as they walked out of the gate of Chongkang Fang, they were shocked by the crowd outside the Fangfang.

How can there be so many people?

It's almost half of Chang'an City's people here!

"Zhu Guogong! It's Zhu Guogong who has come out! ”

"I see it! I see it! This man was born so well, right?! I felt like my heart was going to pop out of my throat when I looked at it......"

"Me too...... Such a good-looking man...... I'm willing to ...... upside down."

"Come on, what do you have to post upside down? - Cut! ”

"Look at Mrs. Qin Guo beside him, such a peerless look, do you think you can compare? Look at her face, her hands, her waist, tsk, she looks like she's only in her early twenties! ”

Hearing this, Mu Yelai finally couldn't help it, and said coldly: "She is thirty-eight, she will be thirty-eight in June, and she will be forty in two years, where can she be beautiful?" ”

"Duh! If you want to talk nonsense, you ugly woman, I think you're sixty this year, right? Or sixty-five? If you throw seventeen or eighteen more tires, you don't deserve to lift shoes for others! Look at your sour look! - Let me tell you, don't say that when Lady Qin Guo was young, even if it was another ten years, she would be better than you! Passers-by expressed their disdain for Mu Yelai.

Mu Yelai was so angry that he couldn't wait to use a dung ball to plug the mouths of these nasty passers-by!

What sixty?! She is three years younger than Du Hengshuang! She's only thirty-five!

But looking at Du Hengshuang who was looking forward to Shenfei on the sweaty BMW, time seemed to have stopped on her, and there was no sign of aging at all, but it made her more mature.

And Xiao Shiji next to her was also at the peak of a man's most mature moment, he sat quietly on the horse, his eyes were as deep as the sea under the moonlight, and the waves were brewing in the quiet.

Feng Niangzi looked at Mu Yelai's suddenly changed face with a smile, and then looked at the women standing behind Mu Yelai.

The women were veiled, revealing only a pair of bright eyes.

Without exception, the eyes of these women all stayed obsessively on Xiao Shiji......

In the distance, there was the noise of gongs and drums for marrying.

The crowd parted a slit and let the procession come by.

Mu Yelai hated Du Hengshuang very much, holding a small silver knife in his hand, and slowly rubbed towards Du Hengshuang.

But she didn't squeeze too far in the crowd, a petite woman in a silver shirt appeared in the crowd as if out of thin air, squeezed from behind her, grabbed Mu Yelai's arm with one hand, snatched the silver knife in her hand with the other, leaned into her ear and whispered: "Your play hasn't come to an end yet, why are you in such a hurry to kill yourself?" ”
