Chapter 818: Marriage Letter
He had a fiancée who was married to him, and it was the first time Downing had heard of this.
Although after so many years, he already has a family, and it is unlikely that the other party will be alone and unable to fulfill the promise he made back then, but the other party's family is kind to them, and if there is anything that can be helped, Tang Ning will naturally lend a hand.
With his current status and status, even if he can't let them hold much power, he can still give them a fortune.
Tang Yu looked at him and said, "When we were separated by the pursuers, I took his daughter back to Jingshi, and asked someone else to raise it, until now." ”
After listening to her say this, Tang Ning already had some impressions of the fiancée.
She is half of the Western Regions blood.
She was a little older than herself.
She grew up in Jingshi and was raised by someone her mother trusted very much.
It would be too stupid if he didn't know who his mysterious fiancée was at this time.
He turned his head and glanced at Tang Shui.
Tang Shui crossed his arms, listening to the story with relish, and suddenly disappeared, and when he raised his head, he found that both of them were looking at her, and wondered: "What do you think I do?" ”
……
As soon as the county lord of Anyang got out of the carriage, he saw Tang Shui running out of Tang's house with a red face, and said in surprise: "What are you doing, hey, you slow down, you wait for me......"
After a while, in the western district of Jingshi, the county lord of Anyang held on to the door frame and panted: "You, what are you doing in such a hurry......"
Tang Shui stepped into the courtyard gate, and a woman came out of the inner room and said in surprise: "Shui'er is back......
"Mother." Tang Shui stepped forward and said, "I want to ask you something. ”
The woman said, "What's the matter?" ”
Tang Shui looked at her and asked, "Who is my biological father?" ”
The woman looked at her and was surprised, "Why did you suddenly ask about this?" ”
Tang Shui held her hand and said, "Mother, just tell me......"
"My mother has said it many times, and this mother is not very clear." The woman shook her head and said, "It was your sister-in-law who brought you back back then, and only she knows your background. ”
Tang Shui said in disbelief: "That means, what my sister-in-law said is true?" ”
The woman looked at her, turned and walked into the room, and after a while, took out a small box and said, "This is what your sister-in-law left you back then, saying that it was left to you by your father, and I will ......open it after you get married."
The county lord of Anyang poked his head over and asked, "Why wait until after getting married?" ”
The woman shook her head and said, "I don't know." ”
The woman didn't know, but Tang Shui did.
The sister-in-law thought that Tang Ning was dead, so she never said about the marriage, and the reason why she had to wait for her to get married was that she didn't want her to be bound by this marriage.
The woman looked at the locked box and said, "The key to this box is with your sister-in-law, and we have never opened it." ”
Tang Shui took the wooden box, took the lock, and pulled it off with a slight pull.
The box opened, emitting a faint musty smell, and contained a pair of small shoes, a rattle, and in addition to that, a yellowed cloth.
She took out the piece of cloth, there were words on the cloth, the front was Chinese, and the back was the text she couldn't understand, Tang Shui looked at the text on it, the county lord of Anyang came over and exclaimed: "Marriage book, whose marriage book?" ”
……
Life is really full of surprises, and after a while, Tang Ning inexplicably lost a cousin and an extra fiancée.
This made Tang Ning very embarrassed, this kind of thing happened, how would he face Tang Shui in the future, how would he face the ladies in the family?
Tang Yu looked at him and said: "The reason why I didn't tell Shui'er about this matter is that I thought that you had suffered an accident twenty years ago, and I didn't want to affect her life, but now that more than 20 years have passed since this matter, Shui'er's parents don't know if they are still alive, you can deal with this matter yourself." ”
How else can Tang Ning deal with it, the order of his parents, the finger is married, where does he have the experience to deal with this matter.
Whether it is for Tang Shui or for him, this matter is very embarrassing, and the best solution is to not mention it to anyone, as if this incident never happened.
He returned to his study, took out pen and paper, and prepared to draft an excerpt.
Regarding the matter of slaves in the Western Regions, Tang Ning felt that this should not be the case, even if the two hostile parties should be in the spirit of humanity, they should treat people as beasts and animals, so that the state of Chen in the state of etiquette is no different from the barbarians in their mouths?
Not only Chen Guo, if he can reach an agreement with Xiao Wan on this matter, whether it is Chen Guo or the Western Regions, there will be a lot less tragedy.
"I really didn't expect it...... "The county lord of Anyang walked in from outside, looked at her with a strange look, and said, "It turns out that you are Shui'er's fiancé......"
Tang Ning didn't raise his head and said, "That was more than 20 years ago. ”
The county lord of Anyang said: "Do you want to regret it?" ”
Tang Ning said: "This is not a remorse, at that time...... She was still young, and I hadn't been born yet. ”
"The marriage event is the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, what does it have to do with the fact that she is still young and you are not born?" The county lord of Anyang said: "You have the order of your parents, and there is a marriage book, that is, you have a marriage contract, if you want to repent of the marriage, you must also agree with the parents of both parties, otherwise it is unfaithful and unfilial......"
Tang Ning was about to forget about this matter, but he was disturbed by the county lord of Anyang, he looked up at her and asked, "Is the county lord here to pay me back the silver?" ”
The county lord of Anyang was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face, and he changed the topic and said, "What are you writing?" ”
Tang Ning didn't answer, and the county lord of Anyang didn't feel embarrassed, so he took the initiative to step forward and look at it.
After a while, she showed a shocked look on her face and said, "You are crazy, do you know how many people's interests will be harmed by the ban on human trafficking, and you are not afraid of offending them?" ”
Downing asked, "Have I offended fewer people?" ”
"Then why are you ......?"
"For the sake of conscience."
……
The barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes, since he has already offended many people, how can he care if he will offend more, or offend the people he has offended again.
The things he did before were for revenge and to help King Run, and what he did now was just for his conscience.
The county lord of Anyang looked at him and said: "Those poor people can't afford to raise children, only by selling them to big families, can a family live, the court has always encouraged this, you will offend the powerful, offend the court, and offend the people......"
Tang Ning thought about it and felt that what the county lord of Anyang said made sense.
Since he is in this era, he cannot copy everything in the later generations, and he must also take into account the actual situation.
After some thought, he crossed out some of them.
It is not forbidden for the common people to sell their children to rich and noble families in exchange for the possibility of survival, nor can it be forbidden to trade people with your will, such as giving concubines and maids to each other.
What needs to be forbidden is that they use violent means to kidnap people from the Western Regions, treat them like livestock, and sell them to the magnates of the capital division.
The state of Chen allowed normal human transactions, but for the act of abduction or forcible looting, the punishment was extremely severe, and the main culprit was caught and executed, but this law was to protect the people of Chen, and the people of the Western Regions were not among their protection.
The county lord of Anyang looked at it and said, "Isn't this what Shui'er wants to do, what else do you say for conscience, is she your conscience......
