Chapter 428: The Ins and Outs
Yu Sangu and Ren Yu'er were grief-stricken, and they were so confused all day long that they didn't even want to eat, let alone cook. Seeing that it was useless for Yu Sangu's family to persuade her, Dean Gu simply asked Cuihua, who had just recovered from a serious illness, to persuade her, and helped cook by the way.
Unexpectedly, Cuihua went to help for two days, and actually ran to say that Ren Yuer seemed to have complaints about Master Han, thinking that if it weren't for Master Han's salty radish and worrying about helping her father make up for the shortcomings, her father would not have gone to Jiading to take office, and would not have been set on fire by the chaotic party in Jiading.
If it were anything else, Dean Gu would naturally not worry about women and children. But when it comes to Master Han, Dean Gu feels that he should make it clear to them. After sending Cuihua away, he asked his family to call Wang Qianli and Yu Qinghuai to come to the former Baojia Bureau together. Waiting for Yu Sangu and Ren Yu'er to simply clean up, they first put incense on the spiritual seat of Ren Yaen, who had just been served, and then sat down and said, "Third aunt, Yu'er, you also sit, let's sit down and say." β
"Dean Gu, do you have something?" Yu Sangu asked weakly.
"Well, there's something I have to make clear to you two mothers and sons." Dean Gu looked back at Ren Yaen's spiritual position, and arched his hand: "It is said that death is great, and Brother Ren has already passed away, I shouldn't have said that he is not and ruined his reputation." But if you don't make this matter clear, Master Han will be misunderstood by you, and you will even be hated by you. β
Yu Sangu hurriedly said: "Dean Gu, what are you talking about, how can we hate Master Han." β
"You don't hold a grudge, what about Yu'er?" Dean Gu asked rhetorically, stared at Ren Yu'er who lowered his head and said: "Yu'er, I have been friends with your father for many years, and now I am your father-in-law again, and there are no outsiders in the house, I have nothing to say, and I am not afraid of this ugly family." β
"Dean Gu, where did you say this, what kind of ugliness does my Ren family have?" Ren Yu'er subconsciously raised her head.
"Didn't you complain that Master Han helped your father fill in the gap, today in front of your father's spiritual position, I will tell you the ins and outs of the matter. Your father really didn't think about filling the vacancy and becoming an official at the beginning, and Master Han didn't even think about helping your father find a vacancy, so Su Jueming has to be blamed for this matter first. β
"What do you blame him for?" Ren Yu'er was confused.
He was not right-minded, self-righteous, and felt that Mrs. Han was far away in Sichuan, and Master Han would not be able to go back for a while, and Mrs. Han would not be able to come to reunite with Master Han for a while, and felt that there could be no one by Mr. Han's side. But Hai'an couldn't find a suitable woman here, so he made up your mind. β
He ...... He wants me to make Master Han small? β
"Exactly."
Ren Yu'er was stunned, and Yu Sangu couldn't believe that this was true, and the two of them didn't know how to speak, Dean Gu continued: "Your father was angry when he first found out about this, but then he still sent you to Master Han. β
Thinking that the third aunt would later help those cousins and cousins of her mother's family say goodbye, Ren Yaen didn't stop him from stopping him, Ren Yu'er realized that her father really wanted to befriend Master Han, and he might really send her to Master Han to ask for an official.
"Yu'er, Master Han didn't know about it at first, until your father sent you to him. He originally planned to let you go back with your father, but he thought that if this matter spread, not only would your reputation be damaged, but even your father would be laughed at wherever he went in the future. can only make mistakes and recognize you as a righteous sister and let you stay by his side. β
Yu Qinghuai put down the cup and added: "Do you remember that Su Jueming went to the foot of Fengshan Mountain to work as a coolie for a period of time, it was because Master Han was very angry after knowing what he had done, and he was punishing him and teaching him a lesson!" β
Wang Qianli also sighed lightly: "I heard Changsheng say that the day before you went to Jiading from Shanghai, Su Jueming was beaten again, and it is said that his buttocks were beaten, I think it was also because of this incident." β
Looking at her and Yu Sangu's surprised looks, Dean Gu said solemnly: "Master Han knows that your father is dedicated to becoming an official, but how can it be so easy to fill the gap, but Master Han still found a way to help your father find a vacancy, not only confiscating the benefits of your father's one or two silvers, but also confiscating you." You know what happened after that, and you really thought about your mother and son everywhere, and even pasted so much silver upside down, and you still complained about him. β
"Yu'er, you have to be a man with your conscience." Wang Qianli sighed lightly.
Ren Yuer never thought that she had been sold by her father, figured out the ins and outs of the matter, covered her face and cried bitterly, then threw everyone down and ran into the room, threw herself on the bed and hugged the quilt and cried.
"Third aunt, you are a sensible person, let's unravel Xie Yu'er." Dean Gu sighed secretly, walked to the door and turned back and said, "I know you are sad, but you still have to eat, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the child in your belly." β
"yes, I know." Yu Sangu nodded chokedly.
"We're leaving, if we encounter any difficulties, just go to us, and if you don't want to go out, it's okay to tell Cuihua."
β¦β¦
Explaining things clearly, Dean Gu's heart not only didn't feel better, but became heavier, sighing all the way.
Unexpectedly, just after returning to the new Baojia from the old Baojia Bureau, a boat came to the river at the door, and the first batch of military attachΓ©s of the Ji Daji second-class salt fishing camp who were supposed to be by Guo's side came back, and Liang Liu, who led a battalion of soldiers back to Taizhou with Pan Er a few days ago, also returned.
"Liang Liu, what are you doing when you come back? With so many people coming back at once, does Master Guo know? Wang Qianli got up and asked.
Liang Liu hurriedly took out a letter from his bosom and respectfully presented it: "Master Yuwang, it was Lord Guo who asked us to come back. β
Wang Qianli took the letter and opened it, then turned around and said: "Dean Gu, Lord Guo knows that there are few people under Master Han, and he is worried about the safety of Master Han, so he ordered Liang Liu and them to send a hundred soldiers from the salt fishing camp to hurry to Master Han to listen to it, and let us help find the boat." β
Dean Gu relieved himself, got up and asked, "Liang Liu, when do you plan to leave?" β
"Dean, the sooner the better."
"Where to find a boat standing here, it will be tomorrow at the earliest."
"It's okay to leave tomorrow, let's go to the camp for the night."
"Is there enough entanglement?" Yu Qinghuai asked in a low voice.
"If you are entangled enough, Lord Guo gave us a thousand taels."
"Since Master Guo has already given you a coil, we don't need to give it anymore, you go to the camp to rest first, and I will send someone to handle the ship."
"Thank you, Dean Gu."
β¦β¦
There are priorities, these government barracks at the foot of Fengshan, Dean Gu was built closely with the grain depot and transportation deputy office and the capital department, and the barracks of the salt fishing camp have not yet been built, Liang Liu, Ji Daji and others took the warrant of Lord Guo and went directly to the threshing floor to find Liang Jiu. Leave a dozen people to be the general manager of the salt fishing camp and the general manager of the foreign commission, and then draw 100 soldiers from the salt fishing camp.
Hai'an Town is very small, and such a big movement naturally can't be hidden from the people in the town.
As soon as Li lame heard the news, he limped to the Xinbaojia Bureau at the foot of Fengshan, and when he saw Dean Gu and Wang Qianli, he asked eagerly: "Dean Gu, I heard that Liang Liu and Ji Daji are going to Shanghai, and they are going to find Master Han?" β
"You're well-informed, but what's your business?" Wang Qianli asked subconsciously.
Li lame scratched his head and said with an embarrassed face: "Dean Gu, Master Wang, you know about my family's Cuihua, I just suffered from a lovesick disease, and I don't know if this disease will happen again." β
"What exactly do you want to say?" Dean Gu was in no mood to listen to his nonsense.
"Dean Gu, the female university is not staying, I was really frightened by Cuihua's girl a few days ago, you old ...... Can your lord help me write a letter to Mr. Han, help my Cuihua to be a big matchmaker, and match my Cuihua to Mr. Yuan Qian. β
"Let Liang Liu, and they take your Cuihua to Shanghai together?"
"It's great to go with Liang Liu and them, Dean Gu, I discussed it with my mother-in-law, and she also said that Cuihua's girl is going to marry sooner or later, anyway, the girl is not in the middle, and who to marry is not to marry."
Dean Gu didn't think that he and his mother-in-law could really figure it out, let alone that he and her mother-in-law were really so kind, and he could almost conclude that he and his mother-in-law saw that Ren Yaen was dead, and Master Han was still so good to Yu Sangu and Ren Yu'er, not only gave 1,000 taels of silver, but also asked the Hai'an gentry to help Yu Sangu and Ren Yu'er buy real estate and land, and suddenly his eyes were red! After all, a thousand taels is not a small amount of money, and he and his mother-in-law can't save more than 100 taels in their lifetime.
Thinking of this, Dean Gu asked quietly: "Cripple Li, your Cuihua is a good girl who works hard, and Mr. Datou Qian seems to like your Cuihua a lot, Master Han can also help with this, please ask me to help be a matchmaker, it's just how much dowry do you plan to get." β
Li Cripple was waiting for this sentence, holding his cane and grinning: "Dean Gu, Datouqian is always from Sichuan, if my family Cuihua marries him, it is estimated that he will not be able to come back in this life." I am really reluctant to marry so far, how can I get a thousand taels for this bride price. β
"One thousand taels, why don't you grab it!"
Wang Qianli was also ridiculed, and couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Cripple Li, you are in the eyes of the dog's money, and it is just enough to sell your daughter, and it is so expensive." Who do you think you are, you think your cuihua is everyone's best girl, a thousand taels, and you can open your mouth. β
"Master Wang, I'm not selling my daughter, I'm ......"
"You're not selling your daughter, even if you do, you don't sell it like this!"
"I ...... Master Wang, I'm thinking about Cuihua for ......"
"If you really think about Cuihua, what did you do when Master Han didn't go to Shanghai, and now you see that Master Han gave the third aunt some silver, and you are red again, not only do you want to sell your daughter, but you also open your mouth. What do you think of the big head, and what do you think of Master Han. This is what we encountered, if you were someone else, see if it would cripple your other leg! β
"Dean Gu, why don't you believe it, forget it, just don't say it."
"Wait." Thinking that there was no girl around Master Han who did laundry, cooking, serving tea and pouring water, and the big head really liked his Cuihua, and more importantly, Cuihua's girl was really good, Dean Gu groaned: "Forget it, letter, I can help you write it; I can also help you do this; Your Cuihua, you can also go to Shanghai with Liang Liu and them tomorrow; But I can't decide how much dowry you can give you. β
Li Cripple was stunned, not knowing what to say.
Dean Gu smiled, and then said: "Master Han regards Mr. Datou Qian as his own brother, if your family Cuihua can really marry Mr. Datou Qian, if you can really climb this high branch, I estimate that Master Han will not treat you badly." β
Li Cripple reacted, and couldn't help laughing: "You always say yes, Master Han is so magnificent, everyone is gone, remember to ask you to send silver to Chen Youdao, how can he not treat my family Cuihua badly, and he will not treat me badly." β
"It's good to know, hurry up and go back and tell Cuihua, let her quickly pack a few changes of clothes."
"Yes, yes, I'll go back."
