Chapter 12 Dowry

In the north of September, the sky is clear, and the white clouds are floating in the blue sky, which is very beautiful.

On this day, Jiang Dazhi woke up naturally, and he felt that he had not slept so comfortably for a long time.

Jiang Dazhi got up from the bed and walked out of the tent, intending to return to Jiangfu.

However, Jiang Dazhi still decided to go to Li Yuanyi to ask for leave.

Jiang Dazhi walked outside Li Yuanyi's big tent and called the soldiers guarding the door to go in and report it.

Li Yuanyi let Jiang Dazhi enter the tent.

"Subordinates, see General Li, Xu Junshi."

"Jiang Jian Jun, excuse me, is there anything to do with the general?"

"Back to General Li, my subordinates want to take a leave of absence for three days."

"Take a three-day vacation! Can I help you? ”

"The subordinate is scheduled to go to the dowry on September 9."

"Oh, that's a good thing! Which girl is so lucky to marry Jiang Jianjun, a talented man from Fanyang Mansion? ”

"It's the daughter of He Fuling."

"Hehe, this is a great thing, when the time comes, you must invite Ben Jiang to drink?"

"When the time comes, I hope that General Li will be able to come."

When Li Yuanyi heard this, he immediately laughed, and the expression on his face seemed to be very pleasant.

Jiang Dazhi saw Li Yuanyi's expression and thought, "This time I finally got the sycophant right." ”

"+ One + Book + Read + Novel + YBDU No wonder Master He recommends Jiang Jianjun so much, it turns out to be his good son-in-law! That's it. This general approved your leave, Jiang Jianjun, you will have to accompany Miss He more in the future, now is a prosperous and prosperous era, and there are not many things to do in the army. ”

"Thank you General Li for your grace, and my subordinates will take their leave."

"Let's go down."

Jiang Dazhi saluted Li Yuanyi, and then walked out of the big tent.

At this moment, I saw a eunuch standing outside the tent and said loudly: "Li Yuanyi, take the order." ”

As soon as Jiang Dazhi heard the order, he quickly knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and thought: "My good man, this time I saw a living eunuch and heard the real holy decree." ”

When Jiang Dazhi thought of this, his face looked very excited, but he lowered his head so that others could not see it.

Li Yuanyi and Xu Wuyun also walked out quickly, knelt on the ground, and listened to the holy decree.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: Black August, Concubine Wu Hui, I am today, let the tea and dinner do not think, in order to eliminate thoughts, especially looking for new love, although there are many beauties in the harem, but there is no one who pleases me, specially ordered to make each festival, urgently offer a local beauty, delivered to Chang'an within ten days, the violator is dismissed on the spot, punish the nine clans, and admire this!"

"We're in command."

As soon as Li Yuan received the holy decree, he said with a smile: "Father-in-law Gao, please do it in your account." ”

This eunuch is the red man next to Tang Xuanzong, Gao Lishi.

Li Yuan welcomed Gao Lishi into the big tent, of course, the hospitality of good wine and food and the gift of some local specialties such as gold and silver treasures.

Jiang Dazhi saw that Li Yuanyi and the others had entered the big tent, so he walked out of the camp and rode to Jiangfu.

Jiang Dazhi rode on his horse and thought: "This Tang Xuanzong is really a talent, he even asked his troops to find beautiful women for himself, no wonder he was driven out of Chang'an by An Lushan." However, on second thought, it is really good to be an emperor! can recruit beautiful women all over the country, and also help him send them home. ”

Jiang Dazhi thought about it, and laughter came out of his mouth from time to time.

After speeding up all the way, as soon as he entered Fanyang Mansion, Jiang Dazhi suddenly remembered something again: "Just now Li Yuanyi called that eunuch Gao Gonggong, and his expression was respectful, which proved that this eunuch was definitely not an ordinary eunuch." ”

Thinking of this, Jiang Dazhi recalled the history books he had read in his mind, and finally made him think that this eunuch might be Gao Lishi.

Jiang Dazhi thought about this, and began to regret it, thinking: "My good man, this time I missed a great opportunity to be promoted and make a fortune, and I didn't even know the celebrities around the emperor to stammer." ”

The more Jiang Dazhi thought about it, the more angry he became, and the more he thought about it, the more he regretted it, thinking: "Forget it, the matter has passed, so let it pass!" ”

Jiang Dazhi didn't think too much, so he could only comfort himself like this.

Jiang Dazhi planned to go to Fanyang Restaurant to visit Wang Long and Haitang first, and thought: "Since I exterminated them last time, I placed them in Fanyang Restaurant, and it has been several days, and I haven't visited them." ”

When Jiang Dazhi thought of this, he still felt a little reluctant in his heart, so he ran straight to Fanyang Restaurant.

When he arrived at the gate of Fanyang Restaurant, Jiang Dazhi turned over and dismounted, and Xiao Er in the store ran out to help him lead the horse.

As soon as Jiang Dazhi walked into Fanyang Restaurant, he saw Wang Long and Haitang eating in the lobby.

Jiang Dazhi walked to Wang Long and Haitang's table.

When Wang Lung saw Jiang Dazhi, the expression on his face was a little surprised, but Begonia was expressionless.

Jiang Dazhi saw Haitang's expressionless face and thought: "When I was in Shanghai, Lao Tzu felt that Han Bing was cold enough, but occasionally he would give a smile. I didn't expect this begonia to be even colder, and I really didn't give any expression. ”

"Are you two eating? I didn't eat either, don't mind if I come and eat together, right? ”

"If you mind, who will pay for us?"

As soon as Wang Lung's words fell, Jiang Dazhi laughed with Wang Lung.

Haitang just glanced at Wang Lung, but there was still no expression on his face.

"Brother Jiang, I finally remembered to come to see us, how was my life as an official?"

"Don't mention being an official, I'm angry when I think about it, but I didn't come to see you here today, and I have something to do when I go home."

"What can you do when you get home?"

"Go to my big house and give a dowry."

"Yo! Yes, it seems that there is a wedding wine to drink. You said to go to the big house, do you still have a second room? ”

Jiang Dazhi saw that Wang Lung's expression was a little strange when he said this, so he raised his throat and said, "What's wrong with having a second room?" You tell me that the man didn't have three wives and four concubines. ”

"I'm just going to get married."

"Don't pretend to Lao Tzu here, when I was in Shanghai, Lao Tzu didn't know you!"

"What's in Shanghai? Where is Shanghai? ”

As soon as Jiang Dazhi heard Wang Long say this, he suddenly remembered that Wang Lung and Haitang were not Yang Bailong and Han Bing who crossed over from Shanghai.

"It's okay, Shanghai is a small place."

"Oh! So which girl is your big house? ”

"He Fuling's daughter."

"What! He Fuling's daughter, she is a well-known ugly girl in Fan Yang Mansion. ”

Wang Lung said this, and began to laugh.

At this time, Jiang Dazhi found that Begonia's face had become extremely ugly, and thought: "This Wang Long, isn't saying that Miss He is ugly the same as saying that Begonia is ugly!" ”

"Let's go back to the room first." Begonia said talkatively.

When Wang Lung saw that Haitang was going back to the room, he knew that he had said the wrong thing.

"Begonia, Brother Long doesn't mean anything else." Wang Lung explained.

It turns out that Begonia is also an ugly person, and now she likes Wang Lung, she thinks that Wang Lung will not care about her appearance, but she doesn't want to, but Wang Lung is also a person who cares about her appearance.

Jiang Dazhi hurriedly asked Haitang to sit down and said: "Brother Long doesn't mean that, I am in love with Brother Long, I don't value a woman's appearance, and he won't value it, the most important thing is to be kind-hearted." ”

"Yes, yes, yesΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·" Wang Lung didn't know how many yes he said in a row, to pray for Begonia's forgiveness.

Seeing that Wang Lung's confession attitude was good, Haitang also sat down.

After Jiang Dazhi said this, he was secretly snickering in his heart, thinking: "When I say this, Lao Tzu himself doesn't believe it." However, how do you know that Lao Tzu's aesthetic concept is very different from your aesthetic concept? ”

"What Brother Jiang said is very true, what about your second room?"

"Second room, just sit here." Jiang Dazhi said while looking at Begonia, his implication is that Begonia is the second room.

When Wang Lung heard Jiang Dazhi say this, he was really surprised!

Jiang Dazhi doesn't know if Wang Lung has love for Begonia? However, he understands very well that Begonia is full of love for Wang Long.

The reason why Jiang Dazhi wants to say this is to see what Wang Long's attitude towards Begonia is.

"Then I really want to congratulate Begonia! Haitang can marry a person like Brother Jiang, who values love and righteousness, it is really a blessing for three lives! ”

When Wang Lung said this, he confused Jiang Dazhi.

Jiang Dazhi thought to himself: "If Wang Lung likes Begonia, he should refute me!" How can you bless me? It can be seen that Wang Lung may not have liked begonias. ”

When Jiang Dazhi thought of this, his excitement was beyond words.

Haitang heard what Wang Lung said, without saying a word, and got up directly and walked to his room.

"Brother Long, don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else."

"Brother Jiang, I don't mean anything else. In the past few months, I have always treated her like a sister, and I have no other meaning for her. ”

Jiang Dazhi knew that Wang Lung was telling the truth, and thought: "This Wang Lung must also mind the appearance of Begonia." ”

"It's getting late, I have to go home."

"Brother Jiang, farewell."

"Farewell."

Jiang Dazhi hugged his fist at Wang Long, then went to the shopkeeper and handed some silver to the display case. Then, walked out of Fanyang Restaurant.

The guy led the horse to Jiang Dazhi.

Jiang Dazhi turned over and rushed straight to Jiangfu.

Back in the house, Jiang Dazhi's father Jiang Youcai smiled at the fact that a big mouth could directly stuff three big steamed buns, and his mother and second mother were also very happy.

"Great ambition! You are now a hero in the entire Fanyang Mansion, Erniang went out shopping, and heard people on the street talking about you! ”

"Erniang, what do they say about me? Do you mean I'm handsome or romantic? ”

"You kid, now I'm joking with Erniang, and they're all saying that you're invincible!"

"The more famous, the more low-key. Otherwise, it is easy to become the target of public criticism. ”

"Zhi'er, what your father said is reasonable, act in a low-key manner, and give three points when you meet people and things, you know?"

"Thank you for the teachings of my father and mother, Zhi'er has remembered them."

Jiang Dazhi didn't want to listen to their ramblings anymore, so he gave a junior salute and walked directly back to the room.

Jiang Dazhi called Xiaoyue over and said, "Xiaoyue, I haven't dressed up for the past few days, I have you to help me dress up, and I can go to business tomorrow." ”

"Okay, Childe." Xiao Yue said softly.

After Xiaoyue finished speaking, she began to help Jiang Dazhi comb his hair.

At this moment, Jiang Dazhi thought to himself: "This kind of life is comfortable, and I have nothing to do to be an official!" What a battle! Lao Tzu is not much more comfortable at home. ”

Early the next morning, Jiang Dazhi was awakened by the sound of birds outside the room.

Jiang Dazhi sat on the bed, listening to the cheerful calls of the birds outside, and thought: "I haven't heard this kind of bird's call for a long time, this sound sounds really comfortable, maybe this is called the warmth of home!" ”

Jiang Dazhi got up and freshened up, and after breakfast, he went to He Yuandao's house with Jiang Youcai to give the dowry.

Walking to the gate of Jiang Mansion, Jiang Dazhi saw a full eight carriages parked outside.

Jiang Dazhi walked to the side of a carriage, lifted the curtain of the carriage, saw that it was full of things, and thought, "This is a big family!" This kind of blinded my little eye. ”

The group walked towards Hefu, and half an hour later, they came to the gate of Hefu.

He Yuandao and Steward Wu were already standing at the gate of He Mansion to greet them.

Jiang Youcai and He Yuandao chatted for a while at the gate of He Mansion, watching the guys from Jiang Mansion move all the dowries to He Mansion, and wait until the dowry of the eight cars was finished.

He Yuandao also led Jiang Youcai and Jiang Dazhi into the living room, and everyone sat down. Jiang Youcai took out a fold from the pocket on his chest, stepped forward and handed it to He Yuandao, and said, "This is the dowry list, please take a look at it." ”

He Yuandao opened the gift list, glanced at it quickly, and then closed the gift list, looking very satisfied.

"In-laws, please be seated."

Jiang Youcai sat back in his seat.

"It can be seen from the gift list of the in-laws, the Jiang Mansion is extremely sincere, I don't know if the in-laws are scheduled to welcome the relatives one day?"

"The old man still let the old man Bai Boxuan, a famous man in Fanyang Mansion, set a date, on the eighteenth of the next month, this day is auspicious, I don't know what Lord He wants?"

"The eighteenth of the next month, that is, the eighteenth of October, a good day, then it is decided. Virtuous nephew! You are a strong man in Xishan this time, and you really became famous all over the world, and you will definitely have a bright future in the future. As for the old man, I just hope you treat Xiangxue better; After all, the old man is just such a girl. ”

"Please rest assured that my father-in-law will promise to be good to Xiangxue for the rest of my life."

When He Yuandao heard Jiang Dazhi say this, he laughed out loud, and the expression on his face was very happy.

"Father-in-law, the weather is good today, my son-in-law heard that all the maple leaves in Xishan are red, and I want to go with Xiangxue to have a look, I don't know what my father-in-law means?"

"That's a good thing! The old man knows that you young people talk more together, and you don't want to talk to us old people, so go ahead! ”

"Thank you, father-in-law."

As soon as Jiang Dazhi's words fell, he said goodbye to He Yuandao and Jiang Youcai, and then walked out of the living room.

After Jiang Dazhi walked out of the living room, he thought to himself: "It seems that there are many things that are indeed common between ancient and modern times. For example, young people are reluctant to talk to the elderly. Of course, this is only a small point of commonality, and there are many more points of commonality, but I am too lazy to compare. ”

Jiang Dazhi walked quickly to look for He Xiangxue, and when he thought of seeing her, his heart began to be nervous, thinking: "She will definitely be very happy to go to Xishan to see the red leaves this time." ”

Thinking of this, Jiang Dazhi couldn't help but smile on his face, that kind of happy smile.
