Chapter 107: Being an Official and a Son-in-law (Second Update)
Mrs. Xie prepared a large table of dishes, and asked the servants to bring two jars of good wine, Xie Ping somehow, desperately poured wine into Cao Wei, Cao Wei did not shirk, the comer did not refuse, and Xie Ping kept drinking, Xie Wan intended to persuade the wine, but was stopped by Mrs. Xie.
In the end, Xie Ping was drunk and lying on the table, Cao Wei stood up slowly, and laughed: "Brother, you lost, how can your brother's alcohol be compared to you, get up, and drink two more altars with your brother......"
Before he finished speaking, Cao Wei fell to the ground drunk and snored.
The rest of the people couldn't cry or laugh, Mrs. Xie called the servants, carried Xie Ping to the bedroom, and after settling down, she sent Xie Wan to the door, took her hand, and said, "Wan'er, the previous thing was that the eldest mother was wrong......
Xie Wan said with a smile: "The eldest mother said these words, and I didn't mention the past, I will go to the capital with my husband in a few days, and my father will ask the eldest mother to take care of it."
"Don't worry, I will take good care of him, your father is very self-controlled on weekdays, and the reason why he is drunk today is because he can't bear you."
"I understand...... Xie Wan took out a stack of silver tickets from her arms and said, "Auntie, this is 10,000 taels of silver, I am filial to my father and you, my father is unwilling to scavenge the silver, so he has lived a very poor life these years, and I will send some back in a few years."
Mrs. Xie's eyes were slightly red, and she choked up: "Jingshi is not as good as other places, the cost is too big, and the silver is given to us, how should you deal with it?"
Xie Wanwan smiled and said, "If my family doesn't have the ability to say goodbye, I will earn silver, and I still have tens of thousands of taels of silver here."
Mrs. Xie was startled and whispered, "Our son-in-law won't empty the treasury of the government, right?"
"The eldest lady said with a smile, all this money is the hard-earned silver earned by the father-in-law's business!"
Mrs. Xie breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, that's good, Xiude is a young man after all, and he will inevitably be a little impulsive in doing things, you have to watch him, don't let him be confused." You hurry up and take him back to rest, come to see your father more in the past few days, although he doesn't say it, he still wants you to spend more time with him. ”
Xie Wan nodded silently, then got into the carriage, Zhang Meng waved a whip, and the carriage sped away.
The carriage was very large, and Cao Wei had a lot of effort to design a torsion linkage mechanism, and then connected to a layer of wooden planks, so that it could be retracted and released freely.
The planks can be used as a seat when laid down, and a layer of mink wool is placed on top for a very soft and comfortable fit. After putting away the wooden planks, the carriage would look extremely spacious, Xie Wan took out two thin quilts from the box behind the carriage, one was spread on the carriage, and then moved Cao Wei up with difficulty, and the remaining one was about to be laid on Cao Wei, but she found that Cao Wei was looking at her with wide eyes.
Xie Wan smiled: "You pretended to be drunk on the day we got married, and today you drank with my father and pretended to be drunk, it's really slippery!"
Cao Wei grabbed his hand and said with a wry smile: "It's not okay if you don't pretend to be drunk, when your father wakes up, he knows that my son-in-law is not drunk, and he will feel very shameless, and I am afraid that I will not have a good face when I see me again in the future, and I am also well-intentioned."
Xie Wan nodded and said: "It makes sense to say this, my father has a good face, and he always has to judge whether he wins or loses when compared with others, he likes to be more serious when he is old, and he is still stubborn, he doesn't take the silver that others give him, and he will always accept the silver given by his daughter!"
Cao Wei smiled and said: "Lady, you don't have to test me, our family has silver, and we collect money for our husband's love and wealth, in order to live a comfortable life, so as long as you are comfortable, it doesn't matter how you spend it."
It's a good thing to be able to save it, but what should be spent must not be saved, and it is the right thing for a son-in-law to send some silver to his father-in-law's family, how can a husband blame you? ”
Xie Wan lay beside him and said gently: "The concubine knows that the husband loves me, and if this is left in someone else's house, the man will definitely drive his wife back to her parents' house." The concubine is a lucky one, with you, the concubine will not be wronged for the rest of her life. ”
Cao Wei said seriously: "Lady, you remember, our husband and wife do not distinguish between you and me, we must live a very comfortable life, don't be bound by many rules and regulations, even if there are any constraints outside, you should be relaxed when you return home, so that you will not come to the world in vain."
Xie Wan nodded heavily, and Cao Weiqi closed his eyes and took a nap.
Qiao's courtyard is not far from the county office, and Zhang Meng's speed is very fast, and it didn't take long for the carriage to arrive at Qiao's courtyard from the county office.
After half an hour, Cao Wei woke up leisurely, and as soon as he opened the curtain of the car, he was so frightened by the scene in front of him that his liver fluttered, and he saw dozens of big men standing in front of the carriage, all of them fierce and vicious, and even some of them were stained with blood.
Yang Qianhu saw Cao Wei jump out of the car, stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "I have seen the uncle, the surname of the lower official is Yang, and he is a thousand households in Weinan Mansion, I am fortunate to see the uncle today, I am sincerely afraid!"
"Lord Yang, your battle makes this official honestly afraid!" Cao Wei carefully supported Xie Wan, turned his head and glared at Zhang Meng again, and said, "You don't know the human feelings, and you don't wake me up when a guest comes."
Zhang Meng muttered in a low voice: "My subordinates have called the adults several times, but you didn't answer......
Yang Qianhu said with a smile: "It's not this brother's fault, it's that the lower officials don't want to disturb the uncle, so they are waiting here." Xia Guan caught the bandits this time, and made some contributions, all relying on the uncle's support, and now the corpse of the White Lotus Sect bandit is placed in the courtyard of your house, please make a decision. ”
Yang Qianhu is well-intentioned, Jinyiwei is a military attache after all, in their opinion, the corpse of the enemy bandit is a kind of glory, and it is placed in the courtyard of Cao Wei's house to show his merits.
But Cao Wei didn't think so, his face turned pale after hearing Yang Qianhu's words, and he resisted the urge to vomit, and said: "Quickly send someone to carry the body away, and then wash the yard three times with clean water, and finally sprinkle a few jars of wine in the yard to get rid of the smell."
Seeing Cao Wei's reaction, Yang Qianhu immediately felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked his subordinates to carry the body out, seeing that Cao Wei's expression was not good, he hurriedly took out a few silver tickets from his arms and stuffed them into his hands, and said: "It's the lower official who is reckless, so I will make amends to my uncle, a little thin silver, not a tribute."
Cao Wei turned his anger into joy and laughed: "What did Brother Yang say!" We both belong to Jinyiwei, and the family doesn't speak two words. Last night, the brothers worked hard to get rid of thieves for the country, and today the official invited the brothers to go to Qingshiju to drink, the shopkeeper of Qingshiju was hospitable, and he didn't want the official to give him silver, it was really a rare good person......"
Yang Qianhu secretly said in his heart, what Qian Ning said was indeed right, the uncle in front of him really has a love for silver beyond ordinary people, so it is good, it is easier and more convenient to make friends.
"Uncle, what should we do with the corpse of that bandit?"
Cao Wei pondered for a moment and said: "Brother Yang himself looks at it, the official has always been lazy, and the excerpt of the merit will be written by Brother Yang, and then sent to the Fusi of Beizhen, but Brother Yang wants to add a sentence to the excerpt, this killing of bandits will be co-organized by the Fuping County Order."
"Thank you, uncle!"
Yang Qianhu was overjoyed, knowing that this was Cao Wei giving him a favor, and the excerpt for asking for merit was written by him, so the credit could be decided by him, as for adding the Fuping County Order, it was a trivial matter, and Yang Qianhu was very happy to give a favor.
Cao Wei smiled faintly, he was very satisfied with his current position, it was not too big or too small, it would not attract attention, and no one would easily provoke him. If it was possible, he really wanted to huddle in the house all the time, not going anywhere, so that everyone else would forget about him, especially the White Lotus Sect......
As for fighting for Xie Ping, it is also easy to do it, after all, the father and son soldiers in battle, and the son-in-law of the official, the greater Xie Ping's official position, the easier it will be for Cao Wei to become an official, after all, the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty is still the world of civil officials.
Cao Wei secretly thought to himself in his heart, his father-in-law is a civil official, and his mentor is a civil official, who dares to say that he is a pure military attaché, and hopes that after he enters Beijing, he can be treated gently by those murderous civil officials......
