Huang Han did not spend any additional money to buy a house, and the one used as a new house was the inner house of the Sifang Express General on Guangqumen Inner Street.

The buildings here are not carved or painted, but they are relatively spacious, which may be due to the fact that the land outside the city is cheaper. The inner house is not small, and there are several courtyards, which are enough to accommodate Huang Han's family to live here temporarily.

The new house was led by Cailian and Tian Xiang, who grew up in the mansion of the civil official, and they took a hundred and ten women and teenagers living in the outer courtyard to decorate it, which really made the place festive.

Huang Yizhou was still training soldiers in Kaiping, and he said in a high profile that he could not use private expenses for public affairs, so he arranged to rush to Beijing in early December.

He actually didn't fit into the send-off, and chose to escape, he liked to live in the barracks and fight with his subordinates, so he pinched the right time to rush to Beijing, so as not to see many civil officials again, and he had to keep kowtowing and flattering.

Huang Han's mother, Huang Zhang, is most concerned about her son's marriage and looks forward to holding her grandson as soon as possible.

The Huang family is actually a rich peasant in Daming, and belongs to one of the most grassroots people.

After all, Cailian and Tian Xiang are from the scholar's family, and this scholar is still a big corrupt official.

Under normal circumstances, corrupt officials should always have more human feelings, stronger ability, stronger petty feudal feelings, better life of relatives and friends at home, better things used at home, and more pomp......

In such an environment, Cailian and Tianxiang have different visions, so they have become the protagonists of arranging big and small things.

Huang Zhang's family didn't know how to take care of it at all, and then she simply went to the temple to burn incense and make a wish accompanied by her two daughters, anyway, all the expenses were Huang Zhang's trusted brother Huang Sifang was responsible for.

The headquarters of Sifang Express is located in the outer city of Guangqumen Inner Street, which is a concentrated residential area for businessmen, and even the two concubines of the Zheng family are not very satisfied after coming to see it.

But they all have a sense of proportion and a low profile, and they don't chirp crookedly in public. If the eldest son of the Zheng family, who was grounded, came, I am afraid that there would be a lot of unpleasantness.

After hearing that his two sons had returned to the preparations for the Huang family's marriage, Zheng Guochang didn't care at all, but his wife was a little unhappy.

She knew that Huang Han was actually very rich, and the dirty silver that was handed over to the clan in Yongping was more than 100,000 taels, so it can be seen how much the Huang family should have embezzled?

Mrs. Zheng complained a little: "Master, the Huang family doesn't care too much about the face of the Zheng family, so they don't even make a house in the inner city to marry Xiu'e, and the messy people living in Guangqumen are all peddlers and pawns, what kind of system?" ”

Zheng Guochang said: "This is very good, why buy a mansion in the inner city?" Huang Han is not a Beijing official. It is true that he has money, but his use is also quite scary, this time there are tens of thousands of mouths to eat, a house to spend the winter, I don't know how much money it will cost to maintain the grain to be able to survive next autumn's harvest. ”

Nowadays, the extravagance of the Ming Dynasty is becoming more and more intense, and the generals also learn the vassal elegance of the military officers and doctors, and they actually go in and out to sit in a sedan chair and have to be supported by the maids and maids to dress up for pomp. Men wear bright clothes with grease and powder, and it has become a trend to be weak and beautiful.

Zheng Guochang, who has a sense of justice and justice, originally lamented that the world was declining, and in the first month, Yongping Mansion was broken by the Houjin army, and the former subordinates did not survive even more.

Huang Han's practice of raising the people to select his children and soldiers was immediately effective, and a brave and warlike force, the "Red Flag Army", was born. Nowadays, the state affairs are difficult, and only when the generals have loyal and daring troops can they gain a foothold and have the opportunity to make contributions.

Therefore, the old man agreed with Huang Han to use the money for the important things of reassuring the people and training the army. He didn't mind that the Huang family didn't have a mansion in Jingshi, and he even thought that Huang Han was so simple that it would be easier to be reused in the ears of the Son of Heaven.

Seeing that her husband seemed to dislike herself for attaching too much importance to pomp, Mrs. Zheng hurriedly explained: "Where is the concubine who cares about this, she is afraid of wronging her daughter." ”

Zheng Guochang said disapprerovingly: "What are you wronged about? The girl is outgoing, the old man estimates that Huang Han only has three thatched huts Xiu'e will not dislike it, and my daughter is familiar with the sages and has lofty ambitions, so she will not care about these little things. ”

Xiu'e was frightened for nearly a month, and only showed a smile when she heard the news of Huang Han's victory. The concubine just feels unsteady in her heart, and she is always afraid of extraneous branches. ”

"Extraneous branches? Madame rest assured, Huang Han has beaten the Karaqin people thousands of miles away, and he is now less than a hundred miles away from Da'ankou, if it weren't for the fact that the kid was reluctant to give up anything outside his body, he would have entered the customs ten days ago. ”

"Master, the concubine is not worried about this."

"It's not that you're worried about Huang Han's safety, what else do you need to worry about?"

"In order to deliver the official document of the military department as soon as possible, Mrs. Qin's daughter Qin Yanyi actually galloped more than 600 miles to Shanhaiguan in two days in the cold winter of the ninth month, and it is said that she suffered from the wind cold on the road and fell ill.

Now that she and Huang Han have long made a private lifelong decision, the jokes made up by good people have been widely circulated in the restaurant tea shop, and those people have made up the story of Qin Yanyi's exhaustion and illness for Huang Han as touching as Liang Zhu! ”

Zheng Guochang suddenly felt inappropriate, his face became gloomy, and he said: "There is such a thing, tomorrow the old man will send the official to the restaurant and tea shop to arrest people, and arrange gossip for no reason to ruin the reputation of my two guerrilla generals of the Ming Dynasty, and the storyteller can be sentenced to exile." ”

"The lord can't do this, those storytellers didn't name names, they all stated in advance that it was the story of the previous dynasty, and asked the listeners not to sit in the right seat, isn't the old man Xingshi moving the crowd to arrest people to cover up?"

"It's tricky! That Huang Han is a master who dares to love and hate. If you know all this, you can't guarantee that Xiu'e's marriage will change. ”

"Master, is it possible for Huang Han to marry Miss Qin Yanyi as his wife?"

"What does it mean to be a flat wife, doesn't Madame understand? It's just self-deception, what a proud person Qin Liangyu is, her niece is a descendant of martyrs, and her status is noble, how can she become Huang Han's wife. ”

"Alas! There are many good things, and the concubine has always been restless these days, I hope that Xiu'e's marriage will not go wrong. ”

Qin Yanyi was indeed sick, and the situation was not good, that was because it was an inconvenient day when she galloped through Shanhaiguan, not only suffering from the cold but also overworked.

She didn't listen to the advice and refused to rest in Shanhaiguan for a few more days and insisted on rushing back to Beijing, because she was afraid of missing Huang Han's wedding.

After returning to Beijing, Qin Yanyi fell ill all of a sudden, and many famous doctors in Beijing have been invited to see it, but it is not improving, it may be that the model beauty sees that her sweetheart is going to get married, but the bride is not because she is disheartened and has no vitality.

Originally, Qin Liangyu heard too many rumors and was furious, but when he saw that his daughter was so sick that he didn't think about getting thinner and thinner, he had no mood to pursue it.
