Chapter 121: First Arrival
Judging from the current situation, Qian Yuan didn't want to have anything to do with Hu Zongxian.
The reason is very simple, Zhao Wenhua has been in Zhejiang for so long, but unfortunately, in Jiangnan Shilin, the reputation of the Yan Party is so stinky that most people have to pinch their noses and hold their breath when they see Zhao Wenhua......
Zhang Jing, Li Tianzhong, and Wu Baipeng are the three giants of Hangzhou City today, and they have all quarreled with Zhao Wenhua in public, and even Zhang Jing, who has a fiery temperament, unceremoniously reprimanded Zhao Wenhua for not understanding it......
Yu Dayou was far away in Songjiang, and the military generals in Zhejiang were Lu Bo and Tang Kekuan, and in this case, they practiced soldiers and horses all day long and could not leave the camp.
Among the civil and military officials in Zhejiang, the only one posted was Hu Zongxian, the prefect of Hangzhou.
Qian Yuan didn't want to offend Zhao Wenhua, but he didn't have the idea of further contact with the Yan Party, Hu Zongxian's talent has been confirmed by history, but his fate has also been confirmed by history.
From a certain point of view, Hu Zongxian's climb to the high position of governor of Zhejiang through the strict party is doomed to a bleak end in the future.
Qian Yuan returned the post according to the rules, and at the same time wrote a reply letter, the widowed mother had just arrived, she was tired and unwell from the journey, and in short, she politely refused the visit of the Hangzhou parents......
In modern society, when visiting other people's homes, they will make an appointment by phone in advance, on the one hand, to avoid falling short, and on the other hand, it is also etiquette.
The Ming Dynasty did not have a phone or WeChat, so it often took the form of posting, especially if it was relatively not so familiar and not a family relationship.
This is a kind of etiquette, a way of communication, and a temptation, such as Hu Zongxian's post last night.
But some relationships can be directly door-to-door, such as what Qian Yuan did today.
In the morning, the servants and maids were busy arranging the inside and outside, and in the afternoon, Qian Yuan took someone to personally take the Wang family over as a guest.
"Sister, you're too polite." Qian Yuan grinned and looked at Qi Jimei carrying a large bag and a small bag, "It won't all be brought from Shandong, right?" ”
"Most of them, you don't care, it's not for you anyway." Wang patted Qian Yuan's shoulder, "It has been raining heavily some time ago, otherwise I would have been sent to Huating a long time ago." ”
Qi Jimei loaded the things into the carriage and looked back at Wang, "Sister-in-law......
Wang glared angrily, waved his hand, and said, "Let's go together, be careful not to be rude." ”
Qi Jimei smiled happily, he had not officially joined the army, and Qi Jiguang was also afraid that those soldiers in the barracks would bring his younger brother badly, so he stayed in Hangzhou City, and the Wang family was extremely strict, and Qi Jimei was very aggrieved during this time.
"The place is too small, so that even a gun is afraid of breaking the bottles and cans." Qi Jimei muttered to Qian Yuan in a low voice.
"Then why don't you live in the dining garden?" Qian Yuan pouted, "Your big brother...... Die to save face and suffer sin! ”
"Where did he suffer...... Seven days off for one day, not necessarily back. Qi Jimei said disdainfully: "That day, the eldest brother refused, in front of outsiders...... Sister-in-law can't scold him openly. ”
Qian Yuan rolled his eyes, and he could scold in private...... It also doesn't seem quite in line with the standards of this era.
Just a carriage, the group quickly returned to the food garden, and the Lu family and the Tan family were waiting in the main hall, they had already heard of this godsister recognized by Qian Yuan.
"Meet the two ladies......"
Before the Wang family who saluted bowed, the Lu family got up and picked it up, she and the Tan family were both of high grades, and the Wang family was just an ordinary person.
Wang got up and looked at Tan and Lu generously, his eyes were clear, the corners of his mouth were smiling, although he was wearing a skirt, his movements were neat, his figure was straight, and he had a heroic atmosphere.
Lu Shizai took a few careful looks, smiled and took off the bracelet on his wrist, and put it on himself, "What a good person, Brother Yuan thanks to you for taking care of it." ”
"The elders dare not resign." Wang didn't twist it, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Lu's words are not right, it was Brother Yuan'er who helped her and the concubine was able to escape the danger, and then she was trapped in Chongde, and it was Brother Yuan'er who was the prime minister in the city, and she gave advice and defeated the Japanese Kou." ”
"Okay, it's all family." Qian Yuan smiled and took the teacup handed by his little sister, "Don't you know, my sister's hand is full of arrows...... The bow is like a full moon, the arrow is like a meteor, and the people in the city don't praise a heroine at that time! ”
Qian Yuan's eloquence was not bad, and it was the first time he mentioned the Chongde War, and everyone in the hall listened attentively, and their expressions changed.
"Mr. Yu is seriously injured, Lu Bin is inexperienced, if it weren't for my sister who happened to arrive, it would be really hard to say." Qian Yuan said with a smile: "My sister is a tiger girl in Jiangmen, last year, the Japanese invaded Dengzhou several times, my sister helped my brother-in-law defend the city, and led the army to attack, I have a lot of experience in this regard." ”
Glancing at Qi Jimei, Qian Yuan said in an accentuated tone: "It's not worse than Qi Yuanjing, right?" ”
Qi Jimei smiled silently, playing with the literary toys he had just given away, he didn't like this thing, but he could bribe and bribe the eldest brother when he turned around.
Wang's father and husband are both military generals, but he himself has a straightforward personality, has a single word, and is as careful as a hair, and is also very skilled in saying some compliments, and chatting happily in the hall.
Until the little sister yelled to learn the arrow...... Lu reprimanded with a straight face: "It's getting more and more unseemly, there are no rules at all, and you have forgotten everything you taught before?" ”
"Hahaha......" Wang laughed and got up and put his arm around the little sister's shoulder, "Although the concubine is from a humble background, I have also heard of the Huating Qian family, the scholarly family, and the official family, what to do when you learn this." ”
Wang Shi mouthed at Qian Yuannunu, "What happened before...... Naturally, someone will stand up for you. ”
Qian Yuan raised his eyebrows, "Qian someone is this temper, protect the short!" ”
The atmosphere in the hall here is harmonious, but the Qi family is bleak.
I thought that I didn't go home last time, so I went home this time to see ...... But Qi Jiguang pushed the door in, except for the gatekeeper who watched the door and a few subordinates, it was empty.
"Went to the food garden?" Qi Jiguang grabbed his subordinate and asked carefully, his face was blue and white for a while, to be honest, he really didn't want to meet that Songjiang Xiucai.
After hesitating for a while, Qi Jiguang went out and rode to the food garden, after all, his younger brother and wife came to visit, and he couldn't shirk it...... Not to mention the rest, Mrs. Hui will definitely not be able to explain, she regards that guy as her own brother!
Led the servant with the dish in his hand into the house, took off the gloves made by the little sister herself, Qian Yuan washed his hands in the basin held by the maid, and glanced at Qi Jiguang with slanted eyes, "Brother-in-law is here, what a coincidence...... It's another rub to eat. ”
"Brother Yuan!" Lu frowned and reprimanded.
"Hehe, uncle, you don't know...... Qian Yuan sat down next to Qi Jiguang, "Last year, there was a thick-skinned person who ate at his nephew's side every day, and he couldn't get rid of it!" ”
Everyone looked at it, and then what?
Qian Yuan bumped Qi Jiguang on the shoulder, squeezed his eyebrows and said, "Things are divided by kind, and people are gathered in groups, right?" ”
Qi Jiguang was stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively: "Is it Zhang Hanlin?" ”
In addition to the Wang family, there is also a bridge between Qi Jiguang and Qian Yuan, Zhang Juzheng.
"Haha, it's my uncle." Qian Yuan laughed and picked up the chopsticks, pointing to the plate of fried shredded pork with chili peppers, "Let's start the chopsticks, my uncle almost killed this thing last year!" ”
