Chapter 378: Trouble

Xie's mansion is not big, it is estimated that it is a two-entry house, and two fruit trees are planted in the front yard, one person is more than one person tall, only the thickness of a thumb, and the wind blows on one side.

It's so cold here that it doesn't look like an official's mansion, but like a broken house, except for the old gatehouse, Cao Wei didn't see any subordinates, sitting in the living room, no one brought tea and water, and no one went into the backyard to report, this kind of hospitality level, if it was in someone else's house, Cao Wei would definitely turn around and leave without looking back.

Brother-in-law, this guy is really bad...

Liu Lao Er stood aside, looking in the direction of the backyard a little anxiously, although he had not read, but he also knew that large families pay attention to etiquette and etiquette, and the backyard is the residence of female dependents, and outsiders are not allowed to enter, so although he is in a hurry, he can't go to the backyard to call people.

Cao Weiwan'er, stood up and walked to the backyard, Liu Lao Er wanted to follow, but stopped after thinking about it, people are adults and relatives, and they can't help but defend themselves, although they are familiar with Xie Xianggong, they can't be unscrupulous.

The backyard is not big, green and green, not flowers and trees, but ridges of green vegetables, fruits and vegetables, the growth is gratifying.

The three of them were working in the backyard, a young man was pulling weeds between the fields with his sleeves, a young woman was slowly and leisurely scooping water and watering, and a little maid was struggling to carry a large wooden bucket behind the woman, looking up and wiping the sweat with her sleeves, but her face was gray.

She inadvertently glanced up, let go of the wooden barrel in her hand, and showed an incredible look on her face, then crossed her waist with one hand, and pointed at Cao Wei with the other, and said: "Whose disciple are you, you dare to trespass into the official mansion privately, be careful that my family hits you!" ”

"Brother-in-law!"

Xie Yufei raised his head, let out a surprise of surprise, and pulled the woman and walked towards Cao Wei.

"Brother-in-law, I was still thinking about looking for you today, but I didn't expect you to come here!" Xie Yufei said with a smile: "The dignified minister, the Marquis of Qinyang has come to my small official mansion, and I will be able to brag with my colleagues in the future......

"Qiyue has seen her brother-in-law!" The young woman bowed and looked up at Cao Wei.

Between the bed, Xie Yufei didn't mention his brother-in-law, who was also a marquis and a brocade guard, Xia Qiyue thought he was a tall and mighty man, but he didn't expect it to be a young man with slightly dark skin, just like a little brother next door, a little thin, casual and peaceful.

The little maid who pointed at Cao Wei seemed to be frightened, and followed behind the woman with her head down, her face flushed.

She came from Weinan with Miss Xia to marry, in this unfamiliar place, she has never heard of her own master actually has a brother-in-law, thinking about the rude behavior just now, she is a little embarrassed, this brother-in-law should not be angry.

Cao Wei nodded and smiled at the young woman, this young woman who called herself Qiyue should be the Miss Xia family in Weinan, Xie Yufei had not yet married when she left Fuping County, and now it seems that they have been married for a while.

I didn't expect my mother-in-law to move so fast, and it didn't take long to complete a series of procedures such as marrying relatives and so on, the efficiency is amazing, if the officials of the Ming Dynasty have this kind of efficiency, why worry about the Ming Dynasty can not be prosperous!

At this moment, Cao Wei thought a lot, I have to say that after wandering in the sea for so many years, someone's political consciousness has improved a lot, and he is initially in line with the political bosses in the court, and there is the possibility of transcendence.

Cao Wei returned to the living room, sat down, and after waiting for a while, Xie Yufei and his wife changed their clothes and came out and sat on the lower side.

The little maidservant hurriedly took the fish from Liu Lao's second-hand hand, took out a piece of broken silver and sent him away, and then gave Cao Wei a cup of tea, and stood behind Xia Qiyue, looking at this brother-in-law with bright eyes.

"Brother-in-law, am I causing you trouble......

Knowing that causing trouble to others shows that his brother-in-law has grown a lot, at least he is no longer the narrow-minded Yanei he used to be, it seems that after leaving his father, Xie Yufei has also suffered a lot, otherwise it would be impossible for his ideological level to be so high.

Cao Wei was very relieved and motioned for Xie Yufei to continue.

Xie Yufei hesitated for a moment and said, "Yesterday I was on an errand in the government office, and the warden Ma Tong came to look for me, saying that a big man was passing by Nantong, and he sent me to meet him.

I felt that something was not quite right, I was just a servant, how could I be qualified to welcome the big man, and then I saw that the so-called big man was actually your brother-in-law, and I guessed that I might have been taken advantage of...... Nantong officialdom seems to be peaceful, but I always feel that something is not quite right......"

Cao Wei took a sip of tea and said, "You are right, you have indeed caused me a lot of trouble, and someone has used you to leave me in Nantong!"

Hehe, this person just wants to tell me that Nantong officialdom is a quagmire, I pass by Nantong, I can go, you are an official in Nantong, you can't go, but if I want to go with peace of mind, I have to clean up the officialdom in Nantong, troublesome, very troublesome.

This is not a conspiracy, it is a conspiracy! ”

Xie Yufei was silent for a moment and asked, "Who is this person?" ”

"Ma Jing."

"No wonder ......" Xie Yufei's expression was gloomy, and he muttered: "I said that Ma Tong followed Ma Jing to Nantong not long ago, why did he come to me for a drink three times and five times, it turned out that it was for the sake of your brother-in-law, and also, I am a nine-grade official, anyone can ignore it, why can people look down on me!" ”

"Don't be so depressed, you are still young, the future is promising, you must not only live in Nantong Mansion, but you have an advantage......"

Cao Wei sincerely comforted, stood up and walked in front of Xie Yufei, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "You have a brother-in-law with very powerful means and a high official position, which many people don't have, if I had such a brother-in-law at the beginning, I would definitely be better off than now......"

Xie Yufei looked at Cao Wei, who was embarrassed, and was speechless, feeling that Cao Wei was reasonable, but he felt that something was wrong. The reason is such a reason, if it weren't for such a brother-in-law, he would be a useless Yanei, with his father's temperament, don't even think about finding an official position for his son...... It's just that these words are nothing to outsiders, and when they come out of the mouth of the brother-in-law himself, it seems very wrong.

Xia Qiyue covered her mouth and snickered, and the little maid rolled her eyes even more, and said in her heart: My brother-in-law is so shameless to praise himself like this!

"Alright, don't think about it!"

Cao Wei said lightly: "Ma Jing used you as bait, lured me to the hook, and let me stay in Nantong, Ben Hou wants to see what kind of ghosts and ghosts there are in this Nantong!"

In the final analysis, Yufei is Ben Hou's person, Ben Hou asked you to be the supervisor of Nantong Caoyun in the seventh grade, but some people squeezed you out to the ninth grade, this is a slap in the face of Ben Hou, if Ben Hou does not double the fight back, wouldn't it be rude! ”

Xie Yufei was in high spirits, when he came to Nantong, he was the supervisor of Caoyun, and he didn't dare to play the name of Cao Wei, for fear that someone would say that he was a fox and a fake tiger, and a dog was powerful, so he had been an official and kept a low profile, but for some reason the official position changed again and again, and finally reached the position of the official, almost an official rather than an official, in Nantong, as long as an official dared to give him a face, he had already held his breath in his heart.

Cao Wei's words undoubtedly released a signal, this tone is unbearable! Xie Yufei was not surprised at all by Cao Wei's words, judging from what his brother-in-law did in Fuping, it was really strange to be able to swallow this breath!

Xia Qiyue looked at this first-time brother-in-law who was speaking domineering words in a flat tone, and suddenly remembered that Xie Yufei had told her about Cao Wei's other identity: Jinyiwei!

Armed with a knife and angry horse, cut off the head, stop crying in the middle of the night!
