The scene of thousands of people seeing off each other at the city gate of Guangzhou, until they had left Guangzhou and entered Jiangxi, Wang Fulin's entourage and guards still talked about it, and even Lu Guangwu used it to joke with Wang Fulin from time to time. And Xiaobei is purely happy because of Wang Fulin's praise, even the henchman who has followed her for many years is now staying in Guangdong, and her parting is much less sorrowful. Now the two girls beside her, Fangrong was given to her by Wang Fulin's mother Wu when she set off from Huizhou before, and Fangshu was picked among the people who let Ya Po send her to the door in Guangzhou, although it is not as good as Bizhu, but she is also very dedicated.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Fulin did not choose to go north directly, but planned to send Xiaobei back to Huizhou first, and then go to the capital as soon as possible. After all, whether some of the bigwigs in charge of the Beijing division learned the news that his wife was pregnant, or whether they did not give him a report on his merits before making up for it, but asked him to go to Beijing to report on his work without waiting for him to report on his work after the expiration of his term of office as the imperial historian, anyway, the time given to him this time was the same as when he took office before, a full 128 days. And Lu Guangwu also accepted the invitation to go to Wang's house as a guest, as for the others, including Qi Liang, they had long regarded Huizhou as their hometown, and they were all like arrows at the moment.

Only Chen Bingchang was a little worried in his heart. He was born in Huguang, and in addition to going to Guangzhou to study, this is the first time he has traveled far away.

With the report from the person who hit the front station, when Wang Fulin saw the tide gate in the west of Huizhou Mansion from a distance, he found that there seemed to be a large number of people there. He hurriedly gave an order to Xiaobei in the mule cart, and he took the lead in beating the horse and galloping away. When he approached the city gate, he recognized Wang Daoyun and Wu at a glance who were supporting each other, and the others were both the small officials in the third class and six rooms in the Yamen of Shexian County, as well as old acquaintances such as the stewards of the two families of Cheng Xu, of course, Ye Qinglong, but not Jinbao and Qiu Feng.

Walk through the welcoming crowd in the mezzanine. He came to Wang Daoyun and was about to bow down, but his hands were suddenly grabbed. Seeing that it was Wu with tears in his eyes, he hurriedly opened his mouth to comfort his mother, but before he finished speaking, he heard a loud cough next to him. Looking sideways, who else is it not Wang Daoyun?

"My son went to the ends of the earth and just came back, and my daughter-in-law also has good news, which is a great thing, why are you crying." Wang Daoyun has never been able to put on a father's stand in front of Wang Fulin, and originally thought that when his son came back, his father would be courteous in public, and he could rarely have the majesty of being a father. Who knows, but he was disturbed by his wife, and he was suddenly a little depressed.

Wang Fulin coaxed the Wu family a few words, and then made a gesture to Wang Daoyun, and when he greeted the others in a circle, Xiaobei and the others had already come over. When the team passed through the capital city of Huizhou and came to the back street of Shexian County, he found that it could only be regarded as a small courtyard of two and a half at most. It was doubled, and when I asked my father, I learned that it was Ye Qinglong who spent a lot of money. successfully persuaded the two families to sell the old house, which suddenly turned the family's house into three roads and two and a half, and it was much more comfortable.

Seeing that although Ye Qinglong did not show his merits, Wang Daoyun helped him talk a lot. Wang Fulin knew that his father and the number one shopkeeper under him now got along well. Of course, he was happy to see this, and even praised Ye Qinglong in front of Wang Daoyun, and Ye Qinglong was so happy. And before, in front of the city gate, it was difficult to block the passage for too long. At this time, he introduced Chen Bingchang to Wang Daoyun. Hearing that it was the secretary hired by his son and a young talent, Wang Daoyun immediately greeted Chen Bingchang with warmth, which made Chen Bingchang even more nervous.

As for Lu Guangwu, he had been here when Xiaobei married before, Wang Daoyun and the Wu family had seen it, and at this time, I heard Wang Fulin talk about taking care of him in Guangdong, and naturally he was even more grateful to this Xinchang Lu Gongzi.

After the greetings, Wang Fulin looked left and right, and then asked, "By the way, what about Jinbao and Qiu Feng?" Didn't one go to Xuancheng and the other to Zhukou? ”

"No, no, no." Wang Daoyun hurriedly shook his head, and then said with a smile, "A letter from the capital, saying that Jinbao passed the examination this time, and you, who are fathers and are officials in Guangdong, are no longer suitable for him to go to Xuancheng Zhixue Academy to study, and the second master Shen also thinks so, so he just went to the capital with Shen Yourong, who won the martial arts, and Master Xu of the Hanlin Academy plans to personally guide him." As for Qiu Feng, he only won the sub-list in this township exam, he originally wanted to give up his career and follow Xiao Yezi to learn to do business, and the Green Field Book Garden also needs someone to take care of it, but I invited the old patriarch of the Cheng clan in Zhukou, reprimanded him, and found him a tribute eunuch of the Nanjing Guozijian, who went to Nanjing to study, and the Cheng family in Zhukou had a few clansmen there, saying that they would take care of him. ”

There are a lot of people involved here, and Chen Bingchang heard it in a fog. Especially the fact that Wang Fulin turned out to be the father of Jinbao, who had already passed the exam, made him only think that there was something wrong with his ears. Fortunately, Ye Qinglong was very clever, and as soon as he saw Chen Bingchang's expression, he knew that he didn't understand what was going on, so he quickly explained to him a little about the relationship between Wang Fulin and Jinbao Qiufeng. After listening, Chen Bingchang only felt amazed, and his eyes were full of admiration when he looked at Wang Fulin.

Wang Fulin pretended not to notice, made a look and asked Ye Qinglong to help him entertain Chen Bingchang, and then talked with his father for a while. Finding that Wang Daoyun didn't know the current situation in the capital, he didn't ask any more, and immediately went out to talk to the people who came to greet him for a while. In the end, the people in the sixth room of the third class of the Shexian Yamen did not dare to stay to eat the noodles because they couldn't leave the county master in the county yamen for too long, and they all left, while the stewards of the two Cheng Xu families stayed slightly, but they left without dinner.

It was not until this time that the door of the previously lively mansion was cleared, and Wang Fulin suddenly found that the eldest sister Wang Yuanguan was gone, and the two younger sisters did not show their heads, and then asked Fang to learn that Wang Yuanguan accompanied his brother-in-law Xu Zhen to Xuancheng Zhixue Academy to study, and Wang Erniang has been married for more than a year, and now she is pregnant. Not long after Wang Xiaomei, who married into the Fang family in Yanzhen, passed the door, her father-in-law suffered from a sudden illness.

Therefore, Wang Xiaomei, who was married to the eldest daughter-in-law, couldn't leave for a while, so she could only hurriedly send a letter to her mother's house to ask her brother to stay for two more days. She must have managed to make it back.

Knowing that the two younger sisters were all married well, and the eldest sister and brother-in-law were also happy, Wang Fulin felt a big stone in his heart, and immediately discussed the date of departure with his father. Although he was going back to Beijing to report on his work, Guangdong was a far away place after all, and he sent his pregnant wife home this time. I still decided to stay at home for a few more days, and it was a big deal to go back and travel day and night.

What he didn't expect was that when his mother Wu came over after placing Xiaobei, he happened to hear him say that he would leave in ten days, and he immediately said: "Shuangmu, I told your father before that if you stay in Beijing this time, then your father and I will take Xiaobei to Beijing by boat to meet you." She hasn't been separated from you much since she married you. Besides, it is not easy for this woman to give birth, if there is a case, your father and I will not be able to explain. ”

"Mother, Xiaobei and I have already agreed that she will stay in Huizhou to be born, this time when she comes back from Guangzhou, it is already very difficult to come back from Guangzhou, and then go all the way to Beijing, it will only be more dangerous than being born in Huizhou. And. It's not that your second elder doesn't know that she is seasick and dizzy. The canal is blocked nine times in ten days, and it will be even more troublesome in case of money or tax customs to find faults. Seeing that Wu still had to fight for it, he shook his mother's hand and said, "Mother, I am a father for the first time, and of course I also want to watch the child be born with her." But it's hard to have it both ways. I believe that there is no better in-law in the world than Dad and you for your daughter-in-law. ”

Wang Daoyun's face was pale, and Wu remembered the scene when he said this to his daughter-in-law before, Xiaobei shook his head, and then tasted what Wang Fulin had just said. She couldn't help but smile happily. She has always been a Bodhisattva-like person, her daughter-in-law was selected by her husband in the early years of the marriage contract, and her son also likes it, and Xiaobei is very good at coaxing her after passing the door, although her mother-in-law occasionally feels sour, but more often she really treats her daughter-in-law as a daughter. Therefore, she still fought for a while, and when she saw that her husband also helped persuade her, she finally let go of this idea, but her heart became happy.

The son has a daughter-in-law, but he is still towards his father!

Sent Wang Fulin and Xiaobei home, Lu Guangwu, who had been wandering outside all the year round, naturally said goodbye and returned to Xinchang, and Wang Fulin personally sent people to the wharf of Yuliang Town, and he had to thank him again.

Because of the limited time to stay at home, Wang Fulin originally sent someone to Fang's house in Yanzhen and Wu's house in Xixi South to deliver a letter, asking Wang Xiaomei not to come over, telling Wang Erniang to have a good baby, and to go back to see them, but she didn't expect that when she was in the next day, Wang Xiaomei hurried over with her husband. She looked much more mature when she had combed the woman's hair, but as soon as they met, she couldn't help but hug her brother and cry and laugh, and called Wang Fulin to be glad that her brother-in-law was called by Wang Daoyun for questioning, and she didn't see this scene.

It wasn't until he finally persuaded Wang Xiaomei to let go of her hand and coaxed her to sit down that he asked with a smile: "I didn't have time to marry you before, don't blame me?" ”

"Of course it's weird!" Wang Xiaomei wrinkled her nose angrily, and then said stupidly, "But that was my bad luck, who let the second sister's marriage happen to be your candidate for the Jinshi, but I just bumped into you when you went to Guangzhou to take office?" However, brother, you have to subsidize my private money, before my father-in-law was sick, I spent five hundred taels of silver. ”

Wang Fulin suddenly sweated profusely. The dignified Fang family in Rock Town, and the matchmaker personally guaranteed by Mrs. Fang on Doosan Street, will not be so poor that she really wants to use her daughter-in-law's dowry to see a doctor, right?

"There are some shallow-eyed people in the Fang family in Yanzhen who saw that I was only married after eighteen, and I was not arranged behind my back, and said that my brother definitely didn't like my sister, and the dowry was also bluffing, and the two foolish ones in my family really believed it, this time my father-in-law had a dying illness, and my mother-in-law refused to spend a lot of money to hire a famous doctor at first, until my father-in-law was not good, I took out of my pocket, and she realized that Mrs. Fang on Doosan Street chose a daughter-in-law who was willing to spend money even if she had no other advantages! So, brother, you give me five hundred taels of silver, and I'll turn around and give it back to you, I see who dares to say that my brother doesn't like me! ”

Thinking that when Wang Xiaomei was not married, she was no less spicy than Wang Erniang, but now she has to suffer this kind of ordeal when she is married to a wife, Wang Fulin only felt angry in her heart, and asked in a deep voice: "Haven't you talked to your father and mother?" ”

"What are you talking to them about? Dad was angry and didn't know what would happen, and his mother was three from four virtues. Wang Xiaomei's voice lowered suddenly, and she glanced out, as if she was afraid that someone would listen to the corner, and then said in a voice lighter than a mosquito, "Besides, he was very good to me, and he spoke for me in front of my parents-in-law before." When he came out this time, he told me that he would definitely give me the money I spent on the dowry. ”

Wang Fulin laughed at this time, and after leaving Wang Xiaomei and her brother-in-law Fang Xu to have dinner, he put on the posture of the eldest brother without saying a word, and directly carried the person to the study to mention the noodles, and when he sent the two back on the third morning, he directly stuffed a box to Wang Xiaomei in front of Fang Xu.

"There are fifty Hepu Nanzhu in it, a necklace or a bead flower as you like, and two thousand taels of silver tickets, which are considered the private money that my brother gave you. Your eldest sister and second sister also have a copy when they go back, just take it. ”

Wang Xiaomei didn't expect to pretend to be five hundred taels, but her brother actually stuffed her a few times more, Rao is that she has always been bold and thick-skinned, and she can't help but have a fever on her face. Fang Xu was even more embarrassed, but he stepped forward and was about to refuse for his wife, but was glared at by Wang Fulin: "What are you talking about as an elder brother giving your sister private money?" It's all earned cleanly, and it's not my greed for ink. ”

Even if the Hepu Nanzhu was Lin Daoqian's treasure, he also asked Yu Wen to transfer the silver and exchange it back, otherwise how could Du Maode and others have the first funds to develop Dongfan?

Although Wang Daoyun felt that his son was a little too fond of his little daughter, he thought that the money was earned by his son, and he was willing to give it to his youngest daughter as a private room, but his daughter-in-law didn't say anything, so he didn't say anything. And Fang Xu cautiously accompanied his wife to leave the Wang family, and after getting on the mule cart, he couldn't help but press his chest and said: "Your brother is only a year older than me, but I don't even dare to take a breath in front of him, and even my legs and stomach tremble when I am glared at." ”

"That's, what kind of person is my brother, when he was a patrol in Guangdong before, that was amazing!" What kind of powerful method, although Wang Xiaomei heard her parents mention a little bit, she didn't show off, she just took her finger and nodded it on her husband, "Finally, you are good to me, otherwise I won't help you speak!" ”

Fang Xu smiled a little shyly, thinking that his eldest brother took his wife with him when he went to Guangzhou, and now that his wife was pregnant and returned to Huizhou to give birth, he couldn't help but sit closer to Wang Xiaomei.

And sent away Wang Xiaomei and his wife, Wang Fulin treated them equally, and had to go to Xixi South Wu again, to visit Wang Erniang, who was pregnant with Liujia, and stayed in Songmingshan's hometown that night, met his father and fellow villagers, and stayed for one more day. The only regret is that Wu Tianbao, an uncle who lives in Nanshanxia, Yanzhen Town, went to Jiande County, Yanzhou Prefecture, to do business, but did not meet him.

When he returned to She County from Songming Mountain, Wang Fulin visited Cheng Xu's family, and then he closed his door and stayed with his wife wholeheartedly. Ten days passed in a flash, and although he was full of concern and reluctance when he set off, he knew that the deadline was not a joke, and he could only set off. When passing by Xuancheng, I went to see my sister-in-law Wang Yuanguan and brother-in-law Xu Zhen, and by the way, I stayed at Shen's house in Xuancheng for one night, and then continued to go north.

When he arrived in Nanjing, it was already two months after he set off from Guangzhou. Originally, he only planned to stay for a while, see Qiu Feng, and then visit Li Yangong, the Marquis of Linhuai, who had inherited the title and liked elegance, but he didn't expect that it was a coincidence that he dug up an old case.
