Chapter 590: The Choice of the Middle Palace
A group of widows fought with Guo Xing'a for a long time, and the Suotulu clan finally agreed to spare Concubine Li's life, and even if she was driven back to Beijing, even if she was pulled down, of course, Guo Xing'a also made enough concessions. As an exchange for Concubine Li's life, Guo Xing'a will get married within the year, so that the Suotulu clan can hold his grandson as soon as possible. However, the dispute was not completely resolved, because the two sides had to continue to quarrel over the question of who was the object of Goxinga's wedding. Fortunately, the Suotulu clan did not have a particularly suitable candidate in his heart, so he did not further persecute Guo Xing'a, and the mother and son could discuss it later.
After an afternoon of high-frequency and loud quarrels, Guo Xing'a and a group of sisters-in-law were all dry-mouthed, and because of the lack of oxygen, they were a little top-heavy. Eighty percent of the masters in the mansion are unwell, and the reception banquet for Guoxing's return to the mansion will naturally not be completed, and it can only be discussed after the same as the object of the wedding. Not only was he deprived of oxygen, but he was exhausted, rubbing his temples while staggering away from his mother's clutches. Goxinga's ears were buzzing, and now that Sotulu had any words of concern, he couldn't listen to them.
"Fifth master, each room will eat separately at night, my old man wants to invite you to the backyard to eat!" Zhang Fulai saw that Guo Xing'a came out, grabbed a vacancy, and leaned over, expressing that Zhang Guangcai wanted to invite Guo Xing'a to dinner.
"I'm tired, let's do it another day!" Guoxinga really wants to cry, this is called breaking the drum and beating ten thousand people! It seems that the old housekeeper Zhang Guangcai is also the right-hand man of the Suotulu clan, and he is preparing to give himself a night battle.
"Fifth Master, be gracious! My old man has something important to tell you, he is old, if you don't go, he may not know how to make trouble! "Zhang Fulai began to play scoundrels, not only his father Zhang Guangcai, but he Fulai also had important things to say to Guo Xing'a.
"Alright! I'll take a break and get over later! Thinking about Zhang Guangcai's concerned expression when he first entered the door, Guo Xing'a still couldn't bear to chill the old man's heart. Anyway, the big wedding can be regarded as having a general direction, and Zhang Guangcai has nothing to force himself, go through the motions and comfort the old man, it is estimated that it is just that.
"Fifth Master, you are merciful!" Fulai hurriedly went down to arrange and prepare.
Guo Xinga returned to his bedroom and fell on the couch for a while, but he was still uncomfortable. Wu Ke and the others waited, got up and drank two pots of hot tea, and lay down for almost an hour before finally relieving. Guo Xing'a, who woke up, still felt that his throat was tight and dry, and his brain was also in a lot of pain, but he finally had some energy and his thinking was a little clearer. According to Guoxinga, it is time to find a quiet place, continue to let him lie down, and give him a chance to calm himself. But he also accepted the invitation of Zhang Guangcai's father and son! I could only fight hard and move to Zhang Guangcai's house in the back yard.
The courtyard of No. 1 Inner Lane was not specially arranged because of the arrival of Guo Xing'a, but it was just a family welcome. Zhang Guangcai and his wife, two young couples of Fulai and Fushun with their own Korean servants, were all at the door to follow Guoxing. I thought that Zhang Guangcai was also Guoxinga of the Suotulu clan, but when he saw that Fushun was there, he also felt that something was wrong, it seems that the old housekeeper really has something to say to him today.
"The fifth master loved to eat hot pot when he was young, so today the family also prepared hot pot, the fifth master and drink a few cups, take a rest!" After Zhang Guangcai saluted and greeted, he directly let Guo Xing'a into the middle hall, and set up a hot pot with good dishes on the main seat.
"Hmmm! This beef is good! "Fushun transferred the dipping sauce to Guoxing'a, and Fulai took charge of the case to Guoxing's A piece of fat cow, carefully looked at the heat, and then gave it to Guoxing'a to eat, and the taste was really good.
"It's good that the fifth master loves to eat! You've been fighting outside, you've been working hard, you've lost weight, and it's time to eat more to make up for it! Zhang Guangcai saw the joy of Guoxing's eating, and his old face immediately turned into a blooming flower.
Guo Xing'a ate a few more bites, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, there was only him in the room, and there was no other table at all, the father and son of the Zhang family were all waiting on the side, and none of them ate together. Guo Xing'a was used to being served by Fushun and Fuquan brothers in the past, so Fushun gave him dipping sauces, vegetables or something, and he didn't think there was anything wrong. But Zhang Fulai, who is the same as the big brother, and Zhang Guangcai, who is the same as the old man, are both standing and serving on the side, and Guo Xing'a feels a little inappropriate.
"Uncle Zhang, Brother Fulai, let's eat together! Why do you keep looking at me weirdly! Guo Xing'a stopped his chopsticks.
"Fifth master, you are the master, we are the slaves, we should serve you. This is in your own home, you let go of eating and drinking, and everything is served by old slaves! Zhang Guangcai was very comforted to Guoxing A's ability to let him go, but the rules of his ancestors were there, and he wouldn't sit down.
"They all say that they are in their own home, are there outsiders, what do you do with such big rules! Fushun, go move two chairs here, let's sit down and eat together! "Guo Xing'a has always been not very interested in the old customs of Manchuria, and he doesn't care if he doesn't serve in front of the master.
"Huh!" Fushun bowed down and agreed, but he didn't have to do anything like moving chairs, and as soon as he bowed his head, several North Korean servants moved the chairs.
Zhang Guangcai resigned again and again, but Guo Xing'a insisted again and again, and the old man was helpless, so he sat down. Fulai and Fuquan said that they didn't want to sit down, Guo Xing'a said a few times and refused to live or die, and in the end, Guo Xing'a and Zhang Guangcai dealt with it, and the two brothers of the Zhang family waited on the side.
"Fifth master, the old slave heard from the inner house, you are going to settle the marriage within the year?" After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Zhang Guangcai finally opened his mouth.
"Hmmm! The old lady is urging a lot, so let's do it within the year! Guo Xing'a had been waiting for the old man to speak, and when he asked, he knocked on the edge of the hot pot with his chopsticks, as if he didn't care.
"Fifth master, do you have a favorite girl outside? If there is, the old slave will go to Lao Fujin to help you talk about it, and this marriage is actually not in a hurry. Zhang Guangcai tested Guoxing.
Although there are also good sayings about Longyang in these years, they are not the mainstream, and most of the people in Longyang are bisexual, so there is no homosexuality, and no one has ever suspected that Guoxinga is coming out. In the eyes of the big guys, Guo Xing'a was fascinated by Concubine Li, so he delayed his marriage. Zhang Guangcai also firmly believed that Guo Xing'a was obsessed with Concubine Li, but after Concubine Li was arrested in Jilin, Zhang Guangcai saw Concubine Li, and he felt that there seemed to be nothing between Concubine Li and Guo Xing'a, and Guo Xing'a should not have any infatuation with Concubine Li. So Zhang Guangcai had a new guess that Guo Xing'a might still be obsessed with someone, but it was inconvenient for this person to appear in front of people, so Guo Xing'a had been hiding it.
"No! I'm just a lot of things, I'm just afraid of trouble! In fact, now that I think about it, Tianni and her sisters are not young, and it is good to take them to Changchun to live. "Goxinga's loli cultivation plan has been successful, and now it's time for him to enjoy the fruits of victory.
"The old slave is arrogant, please forgive the fifth master, I don't know which girl you belong to in the position of Fujin in the main hall of the middle palace!" Zhang Guangcai suddenly put down his chopsticks and asked a very excessive question.
Anyone can suggest and give their own opinions on the candidates of Zhengfujin, but the decider can only be Guoxing. And until Goxinga made a decision, even Sotulu and Pi Runmin could not make a big deal of inquiries or intervene. Zhang Guangcai is an absolute veteran in this family, but his identity is not enough to inquire about the candidate of Zhonggong Fujin, how to say that he is just a retired housekeeper. But Zhang Guangcai asked out of concern.
"It's not easy to do! Look at everyone is good, it's been so many years, I have to divide a big and small king out, how can I be the one who can coax me to understand. Seeing that Zhang Guangcai was asking about this matter, Guo Xing'a strengthened his belief even more, Zhang Guangcai was indeed a member of the Suotulu clan, and this dinner was indeed a continuation of the three sessions in the afternoon.
"The old slave has a saying that I don't know the depths, and it is also the duty of being a slave, but the old slave must say that he can only ask the fifth master to forgive his sins!" Zhang Guangcai drank a glass of wine violently, ready to say something serious to Guo Xing'a.
"Uncle Zhang, you are the old man in the family, what can you say!" Guo Xing agreed with a smile, and at the same time instructed Fushun to put beef balls, fat beef, mutton slices, vermicelli, frozen tofu and other dishes in the hot pot, he felt that what Zhang Guangcai was going to say must be a continuation of the fatigue bombardment of the Suotulu clan and a group of sisters-in-law before.
"The old slave had to remind the master that the position of the middle palace Fujin, but with the fifth master's liking, it is okay to be virtuous and loved, but Tianni and Tuya are girls, and they definitely don't deserve this position! The fifth master cares about the old feelings and the face of his subordinates, and keeps them by his side to serve, and that's it, these two must not join hands with the master and his wife, and raise their eyebrows! Zhang Guangcai gave up half of his body to Guo Xing'a, and almost hysterically shouted out his inner words.
"Fushun, what's going on? Also, Who is Tuya? Guo Xing'a's face sank, Zhang Guangcai was definitely not Suotulu's combination boxing, but his heartfelt words said something more fatal. He didn't want to listen to Zhang Guangcai's side of the story, he had a channel to get comprehensive information, and this channel was Zhang Fushun, the major general of the miscellaneous affairs section in front of him.
"Tuya girl was sent by the Chechen Khan, behind which is Bozhitu and a group of Mongolian princes, and she entered the palace for the throne of Fujin, and the old Fujin likes her very much and supports her very much. She was just a herdsman's daughter, she didn't have any scheming, she was just beautiful, but she had several maids sent by the Chechen Khan, and her every move was controlled by others. Fushun had already made a draft, and naturally Guoxing'a said it clearly as soon as he asked.
"Where's Tianni?" Goxinga didn't care much about Tuya, who he didn't know yet.
"The sweet girl's mind is too heavy, and the gang in Xiaolang are all behind her back!" Fushun said the beginning, and the rest was left to Guo Xing'a to think about himself.
