Chapter 583: Uninvited Guest

Volume 11 Dingfeng Storm Chapter 583 The house of the uninvited guest Wang family has only two entrances, the courtyard is not spacious, the upper room in front is the living room and the study, and the left and right wings are the residence of the gatehouse and the courtyard.

Because it was a female guest who came to the door, the porter in front of him spread the word to the second door and called a daughter-in-law, Qiao An's family, to serve tea.

This daughter-in-law is a maid bought by Wang Zheng's family in Guangzhou in his early years, and she is the most clever. After arriving in the capital, Wang Zheng was the master and married Wang Quantai's long-term follower Qiao An.

After getting married, Qiao An's family was still working as an errand in the inner house. When Wang Zheng's family was busy at the beginning of the month and the end of the month, Qiao An's family was still helping to reconcile the accounts as in the past.

I heard that there was a female guest, and Qiao An's family came out with a little girl, except for serving tea, but asked about the identity of this female dependent without a word.

Speaking of which, this female guest is also quite unusual.

At this time, except for small families and merchants' families, whose women will easily show up?

Look, she was wearing a lake blue flag suit, covered with a light blue dark satin trimmed riding gown, and a pair of low-heeled boots. It is said that it is a flag man, and there is only one ear and eye on this ear; It is said that it is Han, but this is a flag suit.

There is also a little girl who brought, wearing a pink flag suit, wearing a gold collar, holding her breath, and she looks very good at the rules.

Looking at this dress, it seems that the grandmother of a big family takes the young lady out of the house, but the two of them are bare, and they don't see half of the maid and wife following, which family's rules are they?

It can't be that there is something hidden, right? Qiao Anjia muttered in his heart, is it that his uncle is unruly outside and hooks up with the sleeping little daughter-in-law.

Yang Ruixue, born in a wealthy family, has been used to seeing style in Yidu Lijia for more than a year, where would he put a daughter-in-law of Qiao An's family in his eyes.

She was casually perfunctory, but the corner of her eye looked around.

Seeing the furniture in the room, Yang Ruixue's brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

The furniture is elm, although she has not used these, but this is what the family has prepared in the lower room.

On the multi-treasure grid separating the hall from the inner room, there are only lacquer plates, wood carvings, and a bronze statue of Dharma.

The house was clean, but it was shabby.

She had already inquired clearly before, Zheng Hu was living very decently in the Cao family. married the daughter of the Cao family's housekeeper, and the family also bought a house and donated fame.

Zheng Woxue married a military attache on standby, and the husband and wife worked as errands in the Thirteenth Elder Brother's Mansion.

Yang Ruixue was afraid of the old facts, if she went to find Zheng Hu, maybe she would have to pull out something, so she brought her daughter to find Zheng Woxue.

There is no other purpose, only two words, recognize relatives and find a backer.

In this world, blood can't deceive people. No matter how bad the relationship is, there is a blood tie in the middle, and there are thousands of entanglements that are constantly being cut and messed up.

When Wang Zheng entered the courtyard, Yang Ruixue had already heard the movement.

She had quietly removed the jeweled bracelet and gemstone ring from her wrist and stuffed them into her purse. Yun'er's dangling collar hung on her chest, and Yang Ruixue wanted to take it off, but it was too late.

But it was a miscalculation, and it was not well thought out, otherwise it would have changed into plain clothes, and it would have looked down.

"Sister!" Yang Ruixue said in her mouth, her body was already short.

Wang Zhengshi saw Yang Ruixue bowing down, and hurriedly took a step sideways, but did not accept her salute.

Hearing from the concierge that the visitor called himself "his mother's family", Wang Zheng thought of Yang Ruixue. Her sister-in-law had been here, and the porter knew the people.

Except for her sister-in-law, who is a female dependent, and can call herself her "mother's family", I am afraid that only Yang's Ruixue is the only one.

As early as the beginning of Wang Zheng's entry into Beijing, Zheng Hu proposed to recognize this sister, Yunyun. It was Wang Zheng's stubborn stop that persuaded Zheng Hu to change his mind.

If she doesn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, she won't think that Yang Ruixue is recognizing her relatives for "deep brotherhood".

Besides, in this world, apart from herself, there is only one brother. Others, regardless of blood or status, are just other people.

Yang Ruixue saw that Wang Zheng avoided it, her face was a little stiff, and her eyes were already red.

She didn't say anything, but pulled her daughter who was standing on the side and said to Wang Zheng: "Sister, if you annoy your sister, your sister has nothing to say." The elder sister is noble, but the younger sister is a remarried woman, and it is a side room, which is really shameless and then claims to be the sister of the elder sister. This is your niece and daughter, named Qiaoyun, and a small one, who is more than half a year old, and it is inconvenient to take it out. ”

Speaking of this, she lowered her head and whispered to her daughter: "Yun'er, this is your aunt, call someone quickly." ”

Yun'er grabbed her mother's hand, raised her little face, and saw Wang Zheng's unsmiling face, and called timidly: "Aunt." ”

Wang Zheng's face is iron and iron, and it is difficult to show kindness.

Yang Ruixue saw that she didn't enter Yanjin, choked up and said: "Even if my sister doesn't want to see her sister and doesn't want to recognize my sister, for the sake of blood dependence, I recognize Yun'er, my own niece and daughter." My sister has been very miserable in recent years, first the man died and she was widowed; In order to avoid the clansmen from plotting the inheritance, he entered the capital. But it was accidentally made people look at it, and she became a concubine in a daze. The rules of large families are heavy, and the methods of the wife are also impossible to prevent. Sister here, it's just hard work; The children are still young, and my sister is really scared......"

In the end, she couldn't help but bow her head and sob.

Yang Ruixue was half to show Wang Zheng's family, and half was crying to herself. I only felt remorseful in my heart, if I were in Jiangning, I wouldn't have to be so helpless.

Yun'er was frightened, grabbed her mother's little hand, and her face was a little frightened.

Although Yang Ruixue's singing and composition are good, Wang Zheng's disdain, and his eyes fell on Yun'er.

At the age of six or seven years old, with a double beard, looking white and tender, the brake is cute.

Wang Zhengshi looked at Yun'er, and another little girl of about the same age appeared in his mind.

That was Wang Zheng, who went to Jiangning with his mother and brother to find his father.

Not only did he not see his father, but he was also abused by the Bai family, and Wang Zheng's mother died that night.

"This grandma said with a smile, my surname is Zheng, your surname is Yang, two families, how can you talk about blood?" Wang Zheng said lightly.

"Sister......" Yang Ruixue's face was a little pleading.

Wang Zheng saw her behaving like this, but his heart was vigilant.

I heard that she was living a very nourishing life in the bachelor's house, why did she think of the "confession" drama again?

"This grandmother, as I said, don't dare to be this 'sister'. Today, I am a little tired, so I will not accompany the guests for the time being, and I ask this grandmother to forgive me. Wang Zheng stood up, already in the posture of sending off guests.

"My sister is really ruthless, I can't complain that my eldest brother doesn't want to recognize me, and it's my sister's intention to think about it......" Yang Ruixue's tears fell, looking very miserable and pitiful.

Wang Zheng's face showed a look of pain, her mother Zheng said that it was "sick", but the truth was not so. Instead, in front of her husband's house, she was scolded by the Bai family and committed suicide by hanging herself.

Yang Ruixue only thought that Wang Zheng's had been softened, and couldn't help but rejoice, and her mouth was still babbling.

Wang Zheng's heart was in a panic, and after listening to Yang Ruixue's endless, he was a little impatient, and frowned: "What are you talking about, but this grandmother is a little shallow and deep." Please excuse me. As he spoke, he got up to go out.

When Yang Ruixue saw it, she was a little anxious, stepped forward and pulled Wang Zheng's shirt, and said with a crying voice: "How can my sister recognize me?" ”

Wang Zheng stopped, sneered twice, and said, "Because of your mother, my mother lost her husband; Because of your father, I lost my mother. It doesn't matter if the father and daughter are still in debt, or the mother and daughter are repaid, the past is not useful, and it is useless to say it, please don't mention the word 'relatives'......"

After saying that, she didn't stay any longer.

She turned sideways around Yang Ruixue and went out.

Yang Ruixue was stunned, but she couldn't speak...... * November 12, the Great Dynasty Meeting.

Cao Hao drank the decoction for half a month, and his body looked almost better. It's just on the surface, and when I move a lot, I sweat profusely.

Still, he knew he couldn't put it off any longer.

The palace has sent the imperial doctor over several times, even if Cao Hao wants to be lazy and rest for a few more days, I'm afraid he can't.

This is still the news of the head of the Internal Affairs Department, Cao Haotou appeared in the court.

This person who pays attention to Cao Hao will inevitably come over and say a few words to him.

Although it is not yet the time of the last dynasty, and the holy car has not yet arrived, it is forbidden to make noise here.

As a result, officials talk to each other "whispering."

In the etiquette of this court, there is also a clause that you must not "turn your head to ear". So, when the big guy greeted, the body was neatly and neatly, and the voice was not loud or small.

Cao Hao listened to two sentences with a smile, but he was not interested in it.

The position of the head of the internal affairs office, to put it bluntly, is one of the logistics directors in the palace, and in the Ming Dynasty, it was concurrently held by eunuchs.

Speaking of "eunuchs", Cao Hao thought of the tonic that had been used for several days, but he only felt that his nose was wet.

He hurriedly took out his handkerchief and covered his nose, the red blood stains were very shocking to look at.

I didn't see it clearly, I saw blood stains on his handkerchief, and I thought he was coughing it up, which also made many people think about it.

One time less, Kangxi Sheng arrived, and the court meeting began.

In addition to the promotion of Fujian Governor Jueluo Manbao to the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, today's court meeting said one thing, that is, the official title of He Zhuo, the walking of the southern study, and the fame of Jinshi and Renren. With a white body, he still walks in the book repair office; If they do not repent, the official in charge will participate in the recital.

He Zhuo's crimes are mainly three, one is to compare the article of the present time to the article of the last year of Wanli, which is a great crime of disrespect.

In fact, it was he who entrusted his daughter to the eighth elder brother when he was worried a few years ago. Because Bafujin did not give birth, he accepted He Nu as his adopted daughter and took it with him.

Walking in the south study, and compiling and repairing in the Wuying Palace, they are all on errands in the palace. The imperial court has long had a system, and ministers are forbidden to befriend the prince's elder brother.

The third crime is that He Zhuo accepted bribes and was the son of the magistrate.

Three charges are already capital crimes.

Or Kangxi read his "slightly able to remember", and he was spared death. but removed his official position and fame.

Cao Hao watched coldly, but he was so amused in his heart.

Kangxi is old. Some snake shadow cup bows.

As soon as the second elder brother made a fuss about the "alum book case", Kangxi on this side had already made a move to the eighth elder brother first. On the surface, it is He Zhuo, but in fact, it is a killer monkey, for those who are still thinking about the merits of support.

Regarding the matter of seizing the heir, Cao Hao knew what was going on, and he had lost his interest in paying attention.

After the dispersal, Cao Hao was busy.

First, the Queen Mother sent someone over to pass on Cao Hao.

After Cao Hao got married, he came to greet the Queen Mother with his wife, and his impression of the Queen Mother was just average. I don't think she likes to talk, and the shelf is here.

Today, the Queen Mother's face is so loving.

In addition to asking a few words about Cao Hao's body, the Queen Mother also specifically asked about the Li family. As he spoke, the attendant had already brought the box over, but inside was a silver wire longevity lock.

Needless to say, this is naturally prepared for the full moon of immortality.

Is there an end?

Cao Hao was full of slander in his heart, wondering if he was ungrateful. knew that the Queen Mother was well-intentioned, but she still didn't want to appreciate it.

Cao Hao came out of the Empress Dowager's Palace, and Wei Zhu was already waiting outside: "Master Cao, the emperor has sent you a message to see you in Qingxi Library,"

This is not unexpected, looking at the number of times the imperial doctor has visited the Cao family, I am afraid that Kangxi is worried about the silver.

Outside the Qingxi Book House, the official department Shangshu led several foreign officials to wait for the summons. After Cao Hao came, he was directly led to the book house by Wei Zhu, and he couldn't help but look at those officials.

"Healed?" Kangxi looked at Cao Hao and asked.

Cao Hao's side could only answer "Xie Shengen".

Kangxi pointed to the small stool not far from the kang and said, "Sit down and talk, as the saying goes, the new official takes office with three fires, and you are also prepared in your heart." I'm still waiting, do you have a charter? ”

Cao Hao's side had already dealt with it, and when he saw Kangxi speak, he took out a notebook from his sleeve and offered it with both hands.

Wei Zhu stretched out his hand to take it, and then turned around and handed it to Kangxi's kang table.

Kangxi picked it up and looked at it, but his expression was a little complicated, and he couldn't say whether he was happy or sad.

"This ...... If you want to raise military spending before next spring and summer, this is the only 'next step'? There was a bit of reluctance in Kangxi's voice.

Could it be that as soon as the upper lip touches the lower lip, the silver will come out?

Cao Hao was originally planned according to the past three years, and he still felt soothing in terms of time; Now that we want to gather a batch of silver in the spring of next year, I naturally think of some extraordinary methods.

Cao Hao nodded and said, "Your Majesty, the treasury is empty, but the local gentry are rich. If you want to raise money and food in a few months, I'm afraid you can only start with them. ”

Speaking of this, Cao Hao admired Kangxi a little.

"Break the prefect's mansion and destroy the county order", the local officials do whatever they want, treating the businessmen and rich gentry as if they were fat, and they came to bite when they were hungry.

Kangxi's side, but he didn't seem to have imagined anything else.

In fact, what is faster than "raiding the house" to get money?

It's just that Cao Hao won't mention this topic stupidly, the offended people are gone, and the initiator will be held responsible...... * Wutong Garden, go to the house.

Chu Yu sat on the edge of the kang and looked at the person in front of him, but he couldn't speak.

Amethyst and Mama Ye stood on the side, also with a little doubt, looking at the woman in front of them.

The woman was already kneeling down on her knees and said, "The slave Suxin has seen Gege and kowtowed to Gege." ”

Chu Yu's face showed a little smile, and said: "Since it was sent by Huang Mafa, we are not good at slacking off, girl, please come!" ”

"Slaves obey!" Su Xin rose in response.

"Miss Suxin is the first to come, let's rest for two days first, this errand is used, wait for me to talk to the forehead, and then see what errand is arranged for the girl." Chu Yu had regained his composure and said warmly.

Su Xin got up and glanced at everyone in the hall, but he bowed his head and stepped aside......
