Volume I: Chapter 184: Investigation (8)
Wushuang's answer is very good.
He didn't mean to belittle himself in the slightest, but he also showed a kind of respect for his own mother.
Although the Zhao family does not value these origin issues, the Zhao family values a kind of character more.
Between you and me, Zhao Changqing is very satisfied with Wushuang.
Looking at Wushuang, Zhao Changqing suddenly remembered more than ten years ago.
It was also one such day when a young man came to visit.
wanted to ask to marry his daughter, Zhao Yunmeng, but the performance of a man at that age was not as good as the Wushuang in front of him, nor was it as dazzling as Wushuang.
Although he didn't like that man, for the sake of his daughter, he finally agreed to that family business.
However, in the end, it did not exchange for the happiness of her daughter's marriage, but let her daughter die early because of childbirth.
Liu, who was sitting next to Zhao Changqing, found out that Zhao Changqing's face was a little wrong.
"General, what's wrong with you? But what's uncomfortable? Why is your face so ugly? ”
"Oh, I'm fine, I'm okay, I'm just remembering Yunmeng."
"Depressed! You say this, this is what you say, this is the poor child. I also remembered that it seemed to be such a day back then. The man came to the door and asked for a marriage. ”
Liu's feelings are more fragile than Zhao Changqing's.
As soon as she thought of her hard-working daughter, Zhao Yunmeng, the happy mood just now was replaced by a sad mood.
As soon as Zhao Yunchen and his wife looked at each other, they knew what was going on between the old couple and the two of them?
But now because of Wushuang, the two of them can't be comforted by being here.
Fortunately, the old couple. The emotions came and went quickly, and it didn't take long for them to return to normal.
All the questions that should be asked have been asked, and the Zhao family is very satisfied with Wushuang's performance, and the unstoppable smile on their faces can be seen.
At noon, I left Wushuang to eat at Zhao's house, and it was very peaceful to eat a meal.
But this time, I didn't sit at the same table as last time.
Instead, they sat together according to the rules of the family, which made Wushuang a little flattered.
In the past, she and her mother ate together, last year's Mid-Autumn Festival moon night, it was the first time he and his mother went to the big table to eat, it was only a few months from last year's Mid-Autumn Festival full moon, and he could already sit at the dinner table of the general's house!
After eating, he said something that he didn't get, and Wushuang said goodbye and went home.
When he returned home, he first told the old lady and Chu Changjian the good news, and after a period of inquiries from them.
Wushuang now has his own space, and he can speak to his mother.
"Mother. Just wait, you're going to be a mother-in-law soon. Today's performance made the Zhao family very satisfied. ”
"Really? What is the method of satisfaction, tell me about it? ”
"The last time I visited Zhao's house, we all ate separately, but this time we sat at a big table just like at home."
Aunt Zheng, when she heard this, she couldn't stop being happy.
"Yes, judging from this situation, the matter between you and Rouge is a certainty, and you have already visited the Zhao family twice, I think it won't take long for this news to be known."
Wushuang, hurry up and tell his mother.
"Mother, don't go around spreading rumors about this matter, look at the Pang family's wife. Isn't it because of spreading rumors? Have you gone to the nunnery now? Throughout the day, he often accompanies the ancient Buddha with a clear light.
If we spread rumors and let the Zhao family know about it, no, people will definitely know about it. That's more than worth the loss for us. ”
Aunt Zheng glanced at Wushuang angrily.
"Do you think I'm so stupid? Don't I know how harmful this spreading of rumors is? Not to mention. Who in our city is spreading rumors, but anyway, it has something to do with the Zhao family. can't please the Zhao family, who is it? It was a relative of the emperor who came out of the capital.
They don't have two brushes to marry a princess. Am I not afraid of death, your mother? Besides, with Mrs. Pang as an example in front, would I still be so stupid to bump into it? ”
"That's fine."
"You're such a stupid boy. You went to the Zhao family to visit the Zhao family twice, and you didn't deliberately buy this matter, and took you to the banquet yesterday. General Zhao said it himself, let you visit his house. You're not alone! There are others in the single row present, and this matter should not be spread all over the city in a few days. ”
"Mother, when you say this, it is true that there were many other people standing next to General Zhao when he said this yesterday."
"That is to say, in this way, we don't need to publicize it ourselves, and there are people who promote it for us."
Wushuang naturally doesn't worry about these things, he is worried that he is the second in line, and there is an elder brother above, if the eldest is not married, the second child gets married first, what will others say?
It doesn't matter if you say yourself, if you say rouge, Wushuang won't be able to bear it.
"Mother, you also know that I am the second in line, and there is a Chu Wentao above. If this boss doesn't get married, and I get married first, how bad it will be to spread it! ”
"You don't have to worry about that, the old lady has thought of this a long time ago.
is already showing Chu Wentao the girl's house, the old lady doesn't know how satisfied she is with your marriage, how could he let Chu Wentao, this person block you from marrying rouge. ”
Wushuang thought about it, and it was indeed so.
"In this case, that's good, but the old lady has put a lot of thought into it so that I can get my rouge."
"Of course, when he took Zhou Jingya back, didn't he just see that Zhou Jingya had the identity of a county lord?
And now he supports you so much to marry Rouge home, definitely not because you and Rouge really love each other, the reason is because of Rouge's identity, there are generals and princesses behind Rouge. ”
"No matter what's behind Rouge, she's Rouge, what I like is Rouge, and this person is not his family."
Zhao family.
Since Wushuang left, Rouge has become very bored again.
In the past, there was a hazy place to talk to him, but now the hazy spirit has been occupied by that little doll.
How old is that little doll, and she is already the little bully of the whole family.
Everyone has to follow her, and if something goes wrong, he will cry and make trouble in his heart, so that the whole family can't live in peace.
Rouge is a person who can look at the eyes, so naturally he won't rush to find the little doll.
Stuffed in the room, look at the solitary scrolls.
But it also has a different flavor.
Seeing that her young lady was bored, Ika remembered that she couldn't read, so she asked her young lady to teach her.
"Miss, I can't read, can you teach me?"
This is Rouge's old business, and when it wasn't the New Year, wasn't Rouge just teaching the subordinates in the General's Mansion?
"Of course, come on, I just happen to be bored right now."
Rouge teaches very seriously, and Ika learns very seriously.
After a long time, the two of them let go of what they were doing.
Start chatting.
"Ika, I remember you said you had an older brother, right?"
"Yes, Miss."
"And what about your brother now?"
"The slave's brother can't stand the slave's uncompetitive father. I left home to join the army, and said that I was going to take the money back and take me and my mother out of the house, and the three of us lived alone.
As a result, before my brother came back, my mother did. Now my brother doesn't know that my mother has passed away. ”
"Then where did your brother join the army, you also know that my grandfather was a general in the barracks, if you want to find your brother, I can also help you."
"Really? That's great, miss. I just remember my brother saying that he went to join the army, and he didn't say where he joined the army. ”
Rouge pondered for a moment.
"It's okay, I'll take some time to talk to my grandfather and ask him to help you find it. By the way, what's your brother's name? Find someone to have a name! ”
"Miss Hui, the slave's brother is called Song Dayu."
"Song Dayu, this name is interesting."
Rouge read the name a few times, and found it very interesting.
"Because it was raining heavily when my brother was born. So my father named my brother separately, Heavy Rain. ”
"Yes, heavy rain, but it has a good intention."
After dinner, Rouge told Zhao Changqing about it.
It's just to find someone, and it doesn't take much effort, and he has this authority, so Zhao Changqing agreed.
Moreover, Zhao Changqing has been delayed at home for more than a month. And the two most important things to come back this time are the full moon wine of the great-grandson, and the marriage of the granddaughter.
It has almost been done, and there is still a major matter in the army that has not been resolved, and Zhao Changqing can't stay at home for more time.
"Okay, Rouge, my grandfather has already taken this matter to heart, and I'll help you ask about it when I go to the barracks tomorrow."
"What, Daddy. You're going to the barracks tomorrow? ”
"What? You're not happy and don't want me to go to the barracks? Well, I'm not going. ”
"How so? Second. You are not in command in the army? What else do you want to miss? Yes, it's like missing the backbone. ”
"Hmph. You're a grandfather. It's still so unassertive. What should I do when I retire when I am old? You will not take my place. Wouldn't it be possible for me to find someone else? ”
Zhao Yunchen was already a grandfather, and he was reprimanded by his father.
I couldn't hold my face and blushed.
Liu tugged at Zhao Changqing's clothes.
"You, let's eat, it's true that you've been at home for more than a month.
Go back to the barracks as soon as possible, there are still a lot of things in the barracks that you need to deal with, Yun Chen is a captain, he is not a general, if you keep replacing you, others will say something. ”
"Yes, grandfather, uncle is so pitiful, he has become a grandfather, and he has been trained by you."
"Rouge, your uncle, he is timely, of course, grandfather is also grandfather's child, in front of grandmother, no matter how old he is, he will always be a child.
It's like your sister, even though she has a child now and is a mother, but in the eyes of her grandfather. You and your sister are also grandfather's most distressed granddaughters. ”
Rouge was glad to hear this.
I want to add a few pieces to Zhao Changqing's bowl, the braised pork he loves to eat.
"Grandfather, you eat more meat, this braised pork is really delicious, you eat more, your favorite food."
Zhao Changqing is a little greedy because he is old.
But Lang Zhong asked Zhao Changqing to eat less greasy things.
Therefore, for Zhao Changqing's favorite braised pork, he can only eat one or two pieces at a time.
Liu looked at the braised pork in Zhao Changqing's bowl.
"Rouge, Lang Zhong said that you won't let your grandfather eat so many greasy things."
As he spoke, he took away the braised pork in Zhao Changqing's bowl, leaving only one or two pieces for Zhao Changqing.
Zhao Changqing felt a little helpless.
"This is what my granddaughter added to me, how can you add it? Lang Zhong said, let me eat less greasy things, did he say that he wouldn't let me eat it? ”
Zhao Changqing was a little unhappy about the braised pork in the bowl being taken away.
