Chapter 102: Zhang Jiujiu
A girl had just turned out of the back hall, and a figure in front of her was so cold that she screamed in horror, and took a few steps back and stuck to the wall. When he looked at it, the displeasure on his face was swept away, and he was replaced by a spring breeze on his face, blessed with a blessing, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Xu Guanren, congratulations to Xu Guanren, the girl is here to ask for a reward." "The last time I saw Xu Wei, she never had a good face, but now she is almost like two people. Xu Wei looked at her smiling face, took out a small piece of broken silver from her side and handed it over. The girl took it with both hands and thanked her repeatedly. During the Song Dynasty, most of the copper coins were circulated in the market, and it was no wonder that she was so happy to get silver for the reward.
"I am on the orders of the Captain to come and see Madame." Xu Wei said directly.
On the orders of the Captain? Then if the captain doesn't speak, you don't want to come? Although the girl thought so in her heart, but now that Xu Wei has made a military exploit and returned, the Taiwei seems to value him very much, and now it is no better than before. Still with a smile on his face, he welcomed him into the side hall and sat down, and personally served tea, and then trotted to ask his wife. For this kind of snobbery, Xu Wei has seen a lot, so he is not surprised. Ann waited for a while, and saw the girl helping Mrs. He out. As soon as he got up, he saw He Shuying following closely.
"Mrs. Ho." Xu Wei arched his hand slightly, and then saluted. The other party glanced at him, and waited until the main seat sat down, and then let him sit down as well. The girl left on her own, and He Shuying stayed by her mother's side, not squinting.
After taking a sip of tea, Mrs. He raised her head and looked at Xu Wei, her eyes stayed on the gold belt around his waist for a moment, and then asked, "Listen to my family officials, you have made some contributions on the front line?" β
"It's all up to the captain to be thoughtful." Xu Wei chuckled.
When Mrs. He heard this, she raised her head and glanced at it, and said, "It's good to know." My family officials used to command troops in the western region, and later they were transferred to Tokyo, and I don't know how many juniors have been promoted over the years. Which is NOT Thanksgiving? A few days ago, there was also a general manager of soldiers and horses who came to the house to pay a visit, and the ceremony was thorough. β
Xu Wei couldn't stop laughing when he heard it, I was a kind word, but you kicked your nose in the face. What do you mean by this, do you blame me for being inconsiderate? What's the matter, I should still give you a big red envelope? Seeing that he didn't respond, Mrs. He's face changed slightly, she put down the teacup, put her hands on her laps, and asked lukewarmly, "I heard that the official family has rewarded you quite a lot?" β
Hey, strange thing, how can this Taiwei He be regarded as an important minister in the court, right? Why doesn't Mrs. He have the demeanor of Mrs. Command? Whether the court rewards me or not, what does it have to do with you? That's what you should be asking? You are not my mother's mother, eat radishes and worry about it.
Before Xu Wei could answer, He Shuying, who was standing beside his mother, said softly: "Mother, why do you ask ......?"
Mrs. He turned her head to stare at her daughter, and insinuated: "The young man is arrogant, and he is afraid that he will get carried away if he has a little merit." Your father has made many military exploits, and he is a handsome official, even if there are a few boxes of gold belts, what is it? β
He Shuying looked embarrassed, peeked at Xu Wei, and saw that he was not displeased, so she gently tugged at the corner of her mother's clothes and signaled her not to say any more. Mrs. He didn't plan to shut up, and then said: "I'm also for his good, since he is a court official, everything should have an individual system." The most important thing is to understand the rules and pay attention to etiquette, otherwise how different is it from the vulgar peasants who pick up dung and farm in the township? β
Xu Wei was angry for a while, to be honest, just like Mrs. He, if she didn't know her identity, she would really be like the village woman who was scheming and small-bellied in Xujiazhuang. There's nothing to say to this old lady, anyway, it's Taiwei's mouth, and now that I've seen it, I've said it, so I'd better leave quickly, so I don't have to look at that old face to be angry. As soon as he thought of this, he got up and smirked: "Thank you Mrs. He for your teachings, and when I go back, I will study this system and rules well." β
Seeing that he was about to leave so soon, Mrs. He was stunned for a moment, and then replied with a smile: "That's the best." β
Xu Wei didn't want to talk to her too much, smiled slightly, turned around and walked out. He Shuying's willow eyebrows frowned, and as soon as Xu Wei went out, she stomped her feet and shouted: "Mother, you are obviously embarrassing him!" People come to worship you with good intentions, who do you show this face? β
Mrs. He snorted in the direction of Xu Wei's departure, and said disdainfully: "Is there anyone like him who comes to the door?" The basket of pears is here, if I hadn't thought that he had helped in Xia Jin that day, I would have to let him carry things back today! Although he was born in a eunuch's family, he grew up in the countryside and didn't have any knowledge! Your father praised him like a flower, huh! β
He Shuying immediately stopped following and retorted: "He is only less than twenty years old, and he has already done the seven-rank martial arts, and his father said that he has a ...... future."
"Don't tout for him! What about the seven products? Isn't he just a village soldier? The sesame petty official who does not enter the stream, the road is long. Speaking of this, Mrs. He suddenly raised her head and stared at her daughter. He Shuying was stunned by her, and said in her heart What's wrong?
"I said, what are you anxious about? Your brother came back from a defeat in Hebei, and I didn't see you in such a hurry. β
He Shuying's face that deceived the frost and snow suddenly flew two red glows, and argued: "My daughter just thinks that her mother's approach is not hospitality, and if it is spread, it will damage our He family......"
"Yo yo yo, that's a nice thing to say! You don't know that little bit of caution? I'm afraid it's ......" Mrs. He didn't finish speaking, He Shuying had already pushed a few handfuls on her shoulder, and called her mother a few times.
sighed, took his daughter's hand and stroked it carefully: "Daughter, my mother also came from a young age." I've seen a lot of people over the decades, and you've been born with such a look, even if you look all over the city of Tokyo, you can't find a few. Don't look at that kid's skin is good, is it useful? When you are hungry, you cannot eat it, and when you are thirsty, you cannot drink it as water. My mother inquired, and this time the officers brought into Beijing by the young insurance were all rewarded, and there were not a few who were promoted to the rank of knight. But what kind of 'Patrol Envoy of the Two Rivers Loyal and Righteous Patrol Society' did Xu Jiu seal, he was not even a serious officer of the forbidden army, what future did he have? Mother will find a ...... for you in the official eunuchs in Beijing."
"Mother! You say the more you don't know the boundary! He Shuying muttered, shook his hand and went out.
"You're going to stop me? Want to chase the past? Hey, you stop! Mrs. He stopped shouting, but her daughter ran out of the side hall quickly.
sat on the chair and was stunned for a long time, thinking that it was really a woman's big girl. But that kid has a humble official position, and there is no way in the court, I heard that there is an uncle in the Privy Council, but he has not been promoted this time after making military achievements, and he wants to have a general relationship. Marriage has always been a good thing, and my family official is handsome, so I have to find a Beijing official for my daughter. But the daughter seems to have taken a fancy to the kid, and the officials admire him very much, which is a bit difficult. But this matter has to be messed up for him anyway, and he can't watch his daughter suffer with him, right?
Xu Wei walked out of the side hall, and the more he thought about it, the funnier it became. This Mrs. He is really interesting, I didn't come to your house to ask for help, and secondly, I didn't ask for a kiss, how can you look like I owe you? Lao Tzu is rich, and the official family is rewarded with 8,000 yuan in cash, not to mention gold and silver utensils. But Lao Tzu took it and distributed it to the brothers, and he didn't give you a big son, this old lady has a dog-eyed posture of looking down on people.
After walking out of the road, I suddenly laughed, what am I doing with the same knowledge as a woman? In the case of Mrs. He, in the era in which she lived, it was estimated that she was an official wife who drove a famous car, and then beat the traffic police on the street, beat the sanitation workers, and shouted "There are people above us", and finally was stabbed into an online human flesh search.
When I think about it this way, I don't get angry. Walking out quickly, when passing through a small courtyard, he heard movement inside, Xu Wei casually glanced inside, and continued to move forward. Suddenly it retreated again, am I right? In that courtyard, a lot of hay was piled up in a haphazard manner. In the center of the courtyard, there is a guillotine and a small stool. A woman was sitting on a stool, neatly chopping on the hay, who was Zhang Jiuyue? Xu Wei stepped into the hospital, she didn't notice it, and still concentrated on her work. After a while, on the side of the guillotine, the chopped grass was piled up like a hill.
"You're still doing this?"
Zhang Jiujiu raised his head and saw that it was Xu Wei, and a smile immediately appeared on the corner of his mouth, but after a while, the smile froze. lowered his head and continued to hold on, and after a while, he looked up again and still smiled: "The groom in the stable has something to do, I'll do it for him." β
The last time he came to Hefu, Xu Wei was very puzzled. Zhang Jiuyue called He Shuying his cousin, how can he say that he can't be a girl in He Mansion here, right? But the last time I saw her doing laundry, this time she was doing the grass again, this is all the work of the subordinates, what's going on? A flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and I thought of Mrs. He's bird-like appearance. Yes, with her virtue, she must be calling Zhang Jiuyue to take a girl. But even if it's a girl, she won't do this kind of hard work.
While thinking about it, Zhang Jiujiu said: "Xu Guanren repelled the Jin army, which is really amazing. β
"You know that, too?" Xu Wei was surprised.
Zhang Jiujiu always seemed to have a smile on his face: "It's spread all over the city, I heard what Mu Ping said." It's the girl next to my cousin. "This is a bit contradictory, since it has been spread all over the city, how can you listen to the girl in the house? Don't you usually go out of the gates?
I saw that although she was talking, the work in her hands did not stop. Xu Wei then asked, "Why do you do all this work?" β
"I'm idle anyway, and I have some strength. You can't live in your uncle's house for nothing, right? Zhang Jiujiu said it logically, as if it were taken for granted. But Xu Wei heard some meaning from this sentence. Since Mrs. He is her uncle, that is to say, Mrs. He is her own aunt. She eats and lives in Hefu, presumably under the fence. So her parents ......
guesses that her background is estimated to be very pitiful, but since the first time she saw her, she has been laughing, sending people under the fence, and being called as a subordinate, is she so happy? Full of doubts, he asked, "What strength do you have for a daughter?" β
Zhang Jiujiu had finished the forage at this time, got up and took a big basket and stuffed it in, while replying: "My father used to be a military attachΓ©, and I also learned some nonsense. The martial arts have not been practiced, but there is some strength. These jobs are not difficult for me, it is the chopping of wood......" At this point, she realized that she had talked too much, so she stopped in a hurry. raised his head and smiled at Xu Wei ashamedly, and said no more. (Book friend group: 33701828, welcome to join)
