Chapter Seventy-Three: The Book of Intermarriage!
"Zhao Laohu is her own uncle", as soon as Tang Que said this, Zhang Xianling and Lin Xuezheng, who was originally full of annoyance, were suddenly stunned, and after the two exchanged glances, Lin Xuezheng followed up and asked, "You said that Zhao Laohu is the woman's uncle?" Because his expression changed too quickly, his face looked a little wooden.
Tang Que didn't say much, only nodded and agreed, "Yes."
After confirming the news, Zhang Xianling and Lin Xuezheng glanced at each other again, and there was a sudden joy in the eyes of both of them.
Not to mention that the strategy of encircling Zhao Laohu was set a few days ago, in fact, as early as when Zhang Xianling first arrived, he worked Zhao County, hoping to pull him to his side.
Zhao Laohu is an old man in this county, he has been boiling out step by step in the yamen for decades, and the prestige of the people is high, whether it is in the market or in the county government, he is a well-deserved ruthless corner. Although he is the third-in-command county lieutenant, whether in terms of qualifications or influence, he is enough to compete with Master Yao.
Helplessly, this Zhao County Lieutenant is also an old and refined figure, although he doesn't show it at all, but the general trend in the county government is to see clearly, and he doesn't have the heart to get involved in the troubled waters of the dispute between Zhang and Yao. Therefore, how to envelop Huairou in the county order of Zhang, he is always not far away. He is not slacking off in official affairs, but when it comes to personal friendship or something, he does not need to talk about it.
Encountering his attitude, Zhang Xianling really had no way. He, the county honor, is a lame duck, what is the way to get Zhao Laohu, who is both old and has outstanding political achievements?
Since the plan was made four days ago, Zhang Xian ordered to work hard again, and pulled Lin Xuezheng to beat the side drum together, Rao is like this, the situation is not much better, the whole situation is still a mouse pulling a turtle, and there is nowhere to put his mouth.
But at the moment, when you can't ask the town army to deal with the bandits in Erlong Mountain, Zhao Laohu is too important, but you can't help but pull it, just because of this, Zhang Xianling has really been on fire in the past few days.
Seeing that time was passing day by day, when Zhang Xianling was in a hurry, Tang Que suddenly broke out such news, how could he not make him happy?
The joy in his eyes couldn't be hidden, and after Zhang Xianling, who was staring at Lin Xuezheng, turned his gaze, he hesitated a little and said, "I heard that this woman has been a Kefu, Tang Cheng you...... You're still going to marry her? ”。
Tang Que witnessed Zhang Xianling's hesitation and inquiry, and there was an indescribable faint joy in his heart, Zhang Xianling could still think of asking him such a sentence at such a difficult moment, although he was a little bookish, but it was enough to show that this person was not the kind of mean and ungrateful person who only wanted to be utilitarian, and he was at least not aggrieved when he followed such a boss.
"The son is silent, and the power is confused! I don't believe it, I have known her for more than a year, and I haven't lived well for more than a year, not to mention my life, even if there is no minor illness or disaster", thinking about Zhang County's performance just now, Tang Que didn't show it at all, and said with a smile: "I have made this matter clear to my parents, and they have all agreed, and now I am waiting for the 'marriage letter' to the woman's family." ”
As soon as Tang Que finished speaking, Lin Xuezheng on the side was already stroking his palms and praised: "Zi Bu is silent, and his power is confused!" Tang Cheng said it well".
Hearing this, Zhang Xian Ling smiled, and he was the one who was most happy to see this happen, "I just don't know how Zhao County Wei Suri treats his nephew and daughter?" ”。
Tang Que thought about it, after all, he didn't tell the poisonous widow about taking care of the countryside for her uncle, since Zhao Laohu did it so secretly, he naturally didn't want others to know, if it wasn't really necessary, he didn't say much, just replied simply: "It's okay."
"The county magistrate is too worried", Lin Xuezheng took over with a smile, "To say that the biggest characteristic of this Zhao Laohu is that he is good at protecting his shortcomings, and he protects his subordinates like calves on weekdays, not to mention his own niece and daughter." ”
At this time, Lin Xuezheng was still a little bit of annoyance when he saw Tang Que just now? Seeing that Zhang Xianling laughed when he heard this, he continued again: "Since it is a good thing for Tang Cheng, this marriage book has to borrow the ink treasure of the important person, it is better to choose the day than to hit the day, how about I sharpen the ink for the adult?" ”。
Zhang Xianling, who had been bored for several days and now finally had a smile on his face, did not refuse, and after asking Tang Xuan's name and the tooth order of the poisonous widow among the sisters at home, he came to the front of the book case and cited the pen and ink, and wrote on the desk.
Tang Que got up and walked to the bookcase to look, and saw that Zhang Xianling was really a good book, and the content of the pen was simple, but it was only two or three crosses:
Tang Xuanbai: The family has an only son, and he has been established for a year, and he has not been married. Chengxian's second daughter Ling Shu has heard of it, has both virtues and is willing to marry high reinforcements. Because of the matchmakers Zhang Wupo and Lin Yunan, they dare to invite with courtesy, take off if they are not punished, and listen to Jia's life.
At this point, Tang Que knew that the full name of Zhang County Order was Zhang Wupo, and he was really happy to look at this marriage book, but this joy was more for Li Yingjun, this woman had a bad marriage for half her life, and several marriages brought her endless sadness and humiliation.
Of course, a widow's remarriage can attract Zhang County Ling to pull Lin Xuezheng to be a matchmaker together, and the county lord means more that the drunkard does not mean to drink, otherwise Tang Que's current face is far from enough.
Zhang Xianling must have been very satisfied with the book he wrote on the marriage book, and after collecting the pen, he read it carefully, until the ink was dry, and then he ordered the subordinates waiting outside the study to go to the inner room to get the brocade box.
After a while, the man walked in with a brocade box about a foot long, Tang Que saw that the four corners of the silver-inlaid box were exquisitely made, and there was a faint sandalwood fragrance, known to be precious, seeing that Zhang County's order was going to use it to contain the marriage book, he was busy talking about it, and he was able to get Zhang County's order to be a matchmaker, and it was not easy to write the marriage book by hand, and he didn't have to make up for these things.
"Tang Cheng doesn't have to be like this, this gift must not be negligent", Lin Xuezheng was in a good mood right now, and when Zhang Xianling was sealing the sandalwood box, he explained to Tang Que with a smile: "Don't underestimate this gift, each size is very particular, one foot and two inches long, it is December of the first year of the law; The width is one inch and two minutes, like twelve hours in a day, the sandalwood is two minutes thick, like two instruments, the cover is three points thick, like three cai, the width of the letter is eight minutes, like eight sections. You can't be wrong with these sizes, if you don't use this, you really can't find the right one in the middle of the air."
After Lin Xuezheng finished talking about the letter of ceremony, the title in Zhang County's hand had also been completed, and he handed the box to Tang Que, "Yu Nan is right, marriage is humane, it is really negligent, speaking of which, this letter is still prepared for my younger brother, just in time today, you can use it." After all, it is the niece and daughter of Zhao County Lieutenant, so don't neglect these etiquettes", seeing that Tang Que took the box, Zhang Xianling added with a smile: "By the way, don't forget to tie this gift letter with a five-color thread when you go home."
Since Zhang Xianling mentioned Zhao Laohu, there is no need to say much about its potential meaning, and Tang Que did not refuse, "Thank you County Venerable."
"En", Zhang Xianling nodded with a smile, but did not speak, and glanced at Lin Xuezheng sideways.
How could Lin Xuezheng not understand the meaning of Zhang County's order? smiled and patted Tang Que on the shoulder and said: "It's still the same sentence just now, it's better to choose a day than to hit the day, since your parents have agreed to this marriage, I think I can send this marriage letter to the Zhao family in the afternoon."
It was easy for Tang and Zhang's family to agree to this matter, and Tang Queshi didn't want to delay it any longer, so he nodded and agreed immediately. He went to the county government to join the matter because of the soft top of the Yao master book, so some of the necessary documents that need to be archived have not been done, and the three of them are discussing this matter for a few days and are not in a hurry, first after the matter of sending the marriage letter and the engagement date in front of them is completed.
