Chapter 126: Taking office
Ma Du beat Zhu Xiaosi's troublesome hands away, and coaxed Xu Miaoyun, who was crying, in his arms. Xu Da smiled bitterly and sighed, "Let your uncle and nephew see the joke, I don't dare to let my colleagues and friends enter such a home." ”
Ma Du gently shook Xu Miaoyun in his arms, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is still young, Brother Xu should not have an awkward relationship with his sister-in-law, which will hurt the harmony of the husband and wife." It's a bit difficult to buy shares, but I can talk to the Chang family and send some goods to your shop at cost price every month to ensure that there is a profit. ”
Xu Da shook his head and said: "The noise of the woman's house, you don't have to go to your heart, just go in the left ear and out the right ear, I don't want to stop you from coming to my house." ”
"The matter at home is not a trivial matter, it is just a small business, if it causes a fire in the back house, how can Brother Xu feel at ease to go out to conquer."
Zhu Wenying also nodded and said: "Uncle is right, I am also a shareholder, we both agreed, there is no need to talk about the Chang family." ”
"Hey, I'm going to laugh at me again, hehe......"
"The old man doesn't care about these little things, and when I have a good business next time, I will definitely call my sister-in-law to join in a share!"
After coming out of Xu's house, the three of them went to Tanghe's house again. The Tang family was originally a big customer of Ma Du, there is no way, there are many women in the Tang family, although it has not yet reached the standard of "100 concubines", but there are almost 30 people.
However, Ma Du took this trip, and this big customer was gone, and if he gave it to the Xu family, he couldn't do without the Tang family. 、
Tang He's wife, Hu Shi, is a very kind woman, and when she heard that Ma Du planned to supply some soap to her family's shop at a low price every month, her eyes narrowed with a smile, saying that she didn't expect to make money, but that she could use it for her family, and she could save a lot of household money, and it was not easy for her to be a housewife.
Tang He's eldest son Tang Ding almost became Ma Du's classmate, just because he was "extremely smart", and he graduated from Song Lian in only ten days.
Mrs. Hu ran to ask Song Lian if Tang Ding's rotten wood was difficult to carve, but Song Lian said that Tang Ding was not wood, but a stone. Stubborn stones are difficult to chisel, Song Lian doesn't have this ability, so let's send him to the battlefield to chisel others.
Tang Ding was only sixteen years old and grew tall, and now he is following Xu Da as a pro-soldier, and this year he has become the ninth commander of the pro-soldier after wandering around outside.
Compared with the traditional horse infantry, Tang Ding seemed to be more interested in firearms, and asked Zhu Wenying vigorously if he could go to the Shenji Battalion.
Zhu Wenying pretended to smile disdainfully, "You are not suitable!" ”
Tang Ding immediately jumped and said: "Where am I not suitable, don't think that you are a few years older than me, my bow horse is not worse than you at all, or let's compare." ”
Zhu Wenying is not wrong, Tang Ding is indeed not suitable for the Shenji Battalion. What the Shenji Battalion wants is to enforce orders and forbidden, and intimate cooperation, and it will not work without absolute obedience. Tang Ding's personality is too distinct, there are too many edges and corners, it is not impossible to stay in the Shenji Camp, but I am afraid that he will have to suffer a lot.
Zhu Wenying said: "The Shenji Battalion uses firearms, what's the use of your bow and horse." ”
Mrs. Hu persuaded: "Wen Ying, since he is willing to go, let him try, maybe he can do it." ”
Zhu Wenying arched his hand and replied: "Auntie, I won't let him go, it's also for his good." The Shenji Battalion has many rules and strict military laws, and it is inevitable to suffer hardships and military sticks, and you also know that his bullish spirit will dare to stand up to anything when he comes up, and he will poke out a big basket, and I can't protect him. Auntie, you won't forget Hu Sanshe, right? ”
Hu Sanshe is the son of Hu Dahai, a general under Lao Zhu, because he violated military law by making wine privately in the army. Lao Zhu said at the time that even if Hu Dahai would rebel, he would cut off Hu Sanshe's head.
Mrs. Tang took a breath of cold air, and sure enough, she immediately changed her words, "Wen Ying said yes, let him follow your Uncle Xu, your Uncle Xu can control him." ”
Tang Ding didn't do it, "Don't compare me with Hu Sanshe's, I bullied me when I was just a little older." It's a shame that he's dead, or I'd have beaten him all over the ground looking for teeth. Brother Wen Ying, I'm not afraid of being punished and suffering, if I don't do well, you will cut off my head. Ma Duxin said that this kid's secondary second disease is not light, and he should indeed go to the Shenji Camp to let Zhu Wenying treat him.
"Phew!" Mrs. Tang took a few sips fiercely, "Say some bad things during the New Year!" ”
Zhu Wenying smiled and teased: "Yo, you speak like a gentleman, don't cry and wipe your tears to go out when the time comes, you will lose Uncle Tang's face when the time comes." ”
Ma Du knew that Zhu Wenying was using the method of agitation, which was the only way to deal with the second middle school boy, "Wenying is right, most of the military regulations and military laws of this Shenji Battalion were formulated by me. No matter who enters, they must start with the big soldiers. The first three months were the most difficult, and if you couldn't stand it and left, it would be even more humiliating than escaping from the battlefield. ”
"Uncle Ma, don't look down on people! If I can't make it up, I'm here! Tang Ding's two hands were stacked together, and a few fingers of his fingers were still moving, like a king.
After leaving the Tang family, he returned to the palace, and stayed in the palace until the third day of the Lunar New Year, and Ma Du returned to the countryside. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Ma Du also took a few small ones to the city to enjoy the lanterns, returned home and slept all night, and hurriedly took office the next day.
After walking north along the official road for about two miles, after passing Fangshan, you will see a lush grove on the east side of the road, and a path extends from the official road to the forest. There was a tea shed at the intersection, and a middle-aged man in casual clothes was sitting on the tea stall drinking water, and when he saw Ma Du, he immediately got up, "Ma Shumi, you can count it, if you don't come, I will go to your house to find you!" ”
"Huh? Isn't this the Han general system? Why are you drinking tea here! ”
Han Cheng spread his hands, "Where do I have the heart to drink tea here, I'll wait here to see you off." You don't have the official uniform seal, I'm afraid you will even progress in the door. ”
"That's the same!" Ma Du arched his hand, "This is also true, in addition to being responsible for the safety and security of the prince, Mr. Han, are you also responsible for sending people to take office." Ma Du felt that Han Cheng was a bit like the organization department in the later life.
"No one else has it, but I specially sent Ma Shumi to take office!"
"Forget it, Privy Councillor, at most a third-in-command, it's not appropriate for you to call me that!"
Han Cheng said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, the Privy Council is a place where titles are hung, no one can control anyone, and they all have the title of marshal or commander, but you don't, everyone won't compete with you for this title." Haha......"
Madu really didn't know whether to be happy or sad!
