Chapter 083: Found
Xia Cong pretended to have something in his heart, and had no plans to stay longer, and left after the third brother's fiancΓ©e came out to greet him.
Chen Jun led a group of Xia family's subordinates to be hired and were ready to leave at any time.
Mr. and Mrs. Fu Rui sent people outside the gate, and the butler presented them with a group of gifts, and the main family said goodbye to them.
Duan Ziyi saw Jiang Tao waiting not far away, and walked over with a few people.
"Master, this is the most suitable thing that your subordinates can find, and it will not reveal your identity and will not lose your position."
Duan Ziyi took it and took a look, it was indeed something precious but not limited to the royal family, "Not bad." Smiling at Qiu'er who came over, Duan Ziyi asked in a low voice, "Has Zhang Zetian arrived?" β
"Half an hour before the city, his subordinates asked people to find him some trouble, but he may not be able to delay it for a long time."
"He may not go to Wutong Lane first, but come to find the city lord, you go to find someone to stop him, don't let him come over at this time, it doesn't matter if he comes in the dark, he hasn't seen me, he can't recognize me."
"Yes, my subordinates will go."
Carrying a large package and walking back to Qiu'er, he took the initiative to explain in a low voice without waiting for anyone to ask, "I asked people to buy some things for my uncle, now it's different from before, I can't be rude." β
Xia Hanqiu's face was slightly red, pretending not to hear.
"Chengyang is not far from Huiting City, if you have leisure, you might as well go to Chengyang for a walk, although it is a small place, it also has its own characteristics."
"If you want to go, the Xia family understands that I only have this one daughter, and let them stay in the pavilion after they get married. We can't ignore the face of the Xia family, the dowry has been sent out but there is no movement, uncle, you go back and tell your in-laws, we are also willing to do the family in Chengyang, the dowry can be sent to Chengyang first, and then sent to their new home in the future. β
Xia Cong suddenly smiled even more, this was the biggest headache for the Xia family after the family affairs were settled.
It stands to reason that there is no reason for such a noble family to hide, and the Xia family has many side branches, even if their master family has no opinion. I'm afraid that there will be unpleasant rumors coming out at that time. For example, the third brother is the son-in-law of a noble family or something, in this case, the third brother doesn't care, but where does the face of the old father and mother go? But who is willing to join any better family, let alone the Xia family.
They had intended to bring it up after they had been hired. The dowry can be sent directly to their new home. But you need to go to the ancestral house of the Xia family to worship the church. How could he not be happy when he thought of the Fu family, but thought that the whole Xia family's face took the initiative to mention.
"I don't dare to ask for it. The Xia family has been heirloom for nearly 100 years, although it is only a businessman, the connections of the clan are not bad, if there is no movement, it will be difficult to explain in the future, and I will convey the words of my wife to my father and mother word for word. β
"I will go to Chengyang next month, and then I will talk to my in-laws in detail."
"The Xia family's whole family swept the couch to greet each other."
Several people looked at each other and smiled, and they all felt that there was nothing wrong with this relationship.
Identity is very important, but it is not the only factor that determines happiness, and as for the unpleasant words that will definitely occur, they assume that those people are jealous.
"It's not early, take your leave."
"Walk slowly and stay safe on the road."
Xia Cong responded with a mouthful, took the horse led by Chen Jun and turned over, and was about to explain a few more words to Ziyi, when he saw him hold up a package and hand it to him, "Be careful, please take it from your uncle." β
Xia Cong didn't be polite to him, and calmly took it, "Remember what you said, treat Qiu'er well, and teach Nian'an well." β
"Uncle, don't worry."
This title was changed so quickly that Fu Rui's mouth twitched, and the fourth prince was too flattering!
"Qiu'er, Nian'an, I have something to write to my uncle."
"Yes, uncle has a good journey."
Both agreed, and Xia Hanqiu added, "Uncle, remember to write to your uncle as soon as possible when you go back." β
"Don't worry, I made a note of it."
Seeing the group walk away, Xia Hanqiu turned around and said goodbye to the city lord and his wife, "Nian'an has to go to the school, Hanqiu has something to deal with when he goes home, so I won't go in today, madam, you and Yingying talk, I'll come to see her another day." β
"Okay, I won't keep you if you have something to do, and you have to come over often when you're free."
"Yes, Hanqiu said goodbye."
Duan Ziyi and Guo Nianan bowed and followed closely behind.
The two couples returned to the house, and Mrs. Fu said with emotion: "Although there is a suspicion of private teaching, but this is not bad, it is finally settled, Hanqiu, this child deserves to be treated by her, master, do you know the identity of this Zheng Gongzi?" β
Fu Rui glanced at his wife, "Why do you say that?" β
"I've been a husband and wife with you for twenty years, if you can't notice it at all, the concubine bears the name of this lady in vain." Glancing at his master, Mrs. Fu's eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles, where can she see the strength on weekdays, "Not to mention that your attitude towards Zheng Gongzi is not ordinary, that is, he treats you freely and casually like an ordinary person, such an attitude The concubine has only seen several elders treat you like this, master, is the concubine wrong?" β
Fu Rui smiled, "It doesn't matter what his identity is, we are already in-laws with the Xia family, he and the Xia family's cousin are married, from now on they will be a family, one will be prosperous, one will be lost, as long as you know that he will not harm the Xia family, and you can protect the Xia family, we can only have a relationship with him with the light of the Xia family, Longyou Shoal is only temporary after all, wait and see." β
Longyou Shoal...... Mrs. Fu was dumbfounded, grabbed Fu Rui's arm with one hand and covered her chest with the other, "Master, what do you mean......"
"Don't think about it, he wants to be Zheng Gongzi is Zheng Gongzi, how he treated him in the past and how he will treat him in the future, don't change his attitude when he treats Hanqiu, that kind of person is the most keen, and he doesn't like people with plans the most, with our current relationship is always in the same boat, it's better not to do more than not."
Mrs. Fu is also raised by everyone's nobles, and Fu Yingying, who can raise a maverick, is naturally not a deep boudoir woman who doesn't know anything, and she understands when she hears the old man say this, "Yes, the concubine knows, does Yingying need to be informed?" β
"No, Yingying is a friend to Hanqiu who helped her in difficulties, so she treats Yingying differently everywhere, and it's good now, Yingying is only seventeen after all, and she doesn't necessarily treat her well."
"You're right, I guess it's wrong." Mrs. Fu smiled, "Our Yingying is really blessed, and fortunately, the concubine withdrew those two family affairs by her will, otherwise how can there be such a wishful family affair now, can you spare time next month?" Will the concubine go to Chengyang alone to be not cautious enough about this family matter? β
"Of course I'm going, you set a date to tell me that I'll get things out of the way until then."
"Yes, the concubine has written it down."
There has been a lot of backlog of political affairs in the past two days, and Fu Rui continued to be busy, but it didn't take long for someone to come to pass it on, and Wuyang Zhang Zetian asked to see him.
Xia Cong just left for a long time, these two people shouldn't have met at the city gate! Fu Rui straightened his sleeves as he walked to the front hall.
It stands to reason that Fu Rui, who is not an official under his jurisdiction, doesn't recognize a few, but this Zhang Zetian is an exception, who let him have such a relationship with the Xia family? He couldn't help but find out.
I don't know what Zhang Zetian's expression will be when he knows that the eldest daughter he doesn't like has become the fourth princess in the future, it must be very interesting.
Zhang Zetian was not in a good mood at this time.
He felt that Tingcheng must have made a conflict with himself, and before he entered the city, he was dragged by the officers and soldiers guarding the gate and said that he was like a wanted criminal, and he refused to let go of people after holding the image for a long time, but he was in a hurry to go out, not only the carriage without the noble mark, but also the official seal was not brought on his body, if it wasn't for the housekeeper stuffing a large amount of silver, I was afraid that he would really be taken down by them.
Finally got out of there, Zhang Zetian went straight to the center of the city, the situation in any city is similar, the center of the city must be the city lord's mansion.
But just halfway through, a group of rampaging children appeared out of nowhere, and I don't know how they frightened the horse, first galloped wildly for a while, and then turned around in circles, and wrapped him around, and when the carriage stopped, he almost fell out of the carriage, and his head was knocked out, and he was swollen with a big bag, his hair was scattered, and his clothes were wrinkled. I had no choice but to go to the doctor first, and then go to the inn to ask for a room to freshen up before coming.
After a rough calculation, it took about an hour to delay, and he panicked when he thought about it, how long had he Zhang Zetian not suffered this kind of loss, and he had no place to be angry.
On the street, you can't embarrass a few children, do you want a face? Although at that time, he wanted to kick out one by one.
"I don't know if Brother Zhang is coming, I will miss the distance."
Zhang Zetian instantly showed a smile on his face, and he couldn't tell that he was in a bad mood at this time, "It's me who took the liberty of it, the little daughter-in-law came to bother me a few days ago, and I came to the door again today, I'm really embarrassed." β
"What Brother Zhang said, come in and be a guest, Brother Zhang, please take a seat." Fu Rui really didn't seem to know anything, and he had forgotten all about the confrontation between several young people in the City Lord's Mansion that day, and treated Zhang Zetian as an ordinary guest.
The two talked around the bush for a while, but Fu Rui saw that he didn't take the initiative to mention it, and he would never talk about it.
After going around in a circle, Zhang Zetian finally couldn't sit still, and sighed and said: "I heard that Qiu'er and Ling Yan have a very good relationship, and they often go in and out of the City Lord's Mansion. β
Fu Rui didn't pretend to be stupid, and his smile didn't change by half a point, "If you're talking about Hanqiu, it's true, but as far as I know, her surname is Xia." β
Zhang Zetian's expression was embarrassed and angry, "Although her mother is gone, I, the father, am still alive, who gave her the courage to change her surname privately?" It's really lawless, I heard that she also claimed that she had lost her cowardice, where did she put me as a father. β
"Oh! Miss Zhang Er told you, her words were vicious that day, and I was embarrassed when I heard it, and I wouldn't say anything good about Hanqiu in front of you. β
"Qiao'er is not a vicious person, did Brother Fu believe one-sided words?"
Fu Rui didn't understand the meaning of his words, and asked rhetorically: "Then why didn't Brother Zhang believe one-sided words?" Hanqiu has all the bad in your heart, have you seen it with your own eyes? Instead of listening to others? (To be continued......)
