Chapter 316: Arrival

Dou Zhao happily greeted him.

In addition to two or three guards she fancied who didn't want to leave their hometown and stayed in Zhending to continue to work as a nurse in Xidou, Duan Gongyi, Chen Xiaofeng and others all followed, not only that, but also brought seven or eight tall and strong men from Zhending, who were vigorous and powerful in their gestures, and they looked like practicing their families.

Duan Gongyi explained with a smile: "A few juniors, they were introduced by relatives and friends, and they looked okay, so they brought them to you." ”

Next, Dou Zhao wants to take stock of half of the industries in Xidou that have long been under his name with Dong Dou, and there are many places to employ people.

"Since it's Master Duan's favorite, then accept it all!" She smiled and instructed Su Xin, "Today, I will pick up Mr. Chen and Master Duan, and send someone to invite Shopkeeper Fan, Shopkeeper Cui, and Shopkeeper Tian from the pen and ink shop, just take this opportunity to get together together." ”

Su Xin answered.

Dou Zhao asked his grandmother: "...... The last time I wrote to me, I said that this year's eggplant melons were growing well, and the family couldn't finish eating them, so I gave a lot of them to the neighbors. Is her old man's health okay? ”

"Tough!" Chen Qushui smiled and took out a letter from his arms, "Aunt Cui asked me to bring it to you." ”

Dou Zhao took the letter, looked at the hanging flower door of the dripping eaves, suppressed the urgency to read the letter, and said with a smile: "You just arrived, not when you said this. Your resting place has been arranged, and when you are settled, we will talk about it in detail. ”

Chen Qushui smiled and said "yes".

Dou Zhao shouted Wuyi.

Wu Yizheng looked at Chen Qushui with wide eyes, as if he had seen a ghost.

Chen Qushui couldn't help but smile slightly and nodded towards Wuyi.

If it weren't for the well-trained Chen He in the past few years, Wuyi would have jumped up a long time ago.

He muttered, "Mr. Chen, please come with me!" He led Chen Qushui, Duan Gongyi and others to the west group house, which had already been cleaned.

Duan Gongyi looked at the newly painted small courtyard and wings, and couldn't help but say to Mr. Chen: "In the end, it is the British Mansion, look at this house, although it is simple and generous." But it also looks magnificent. “

Chen Qushui smiled but did not speak.

This was something that Dou Zhao and Song Mo had discussed a long time ago.

Chen Qushui and Duan Gongyi are like this, each of them is divided into three small courtyards with an inverted seat and a regression; Those who did not have a family, and those who came later, had a room for one person.

When I entered the house, the general furniture was all set.

Duan Gongyi, Chen Xiaodong and others couldn't help but smack their tongues.

Chen Qushui touched the window lattice that was pasted with Korean paper, and his chin was almost invisible.

It seems that the prince still respects his wife very much, and let the cross-courtyard in the west not to mention, but also to make people spend time arranging it.

They should be able to integrate into Yizhitang soon!

Chen Qushui divided the house.

Someone asked, "Mr. Chen, can you bring your wife and children to live in?" ”

"I'll have to discuss this with my wife first." Chen Qushui said with a smile, and instructed a group of rough old men who were curiously looking around, "Hurry up and freshen up, and we will sit down later." ”

Everyone went back to the house giggling.

Chen Qushui turned around. Saw Wuyi.

He was staring at Chen Qushui without blinking!

After all, I have served myself for more than half a year.

Chen Qushui thought about it and walked towards Wuyi.

Wu Yi shuddered and woke up, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Chen." Madame said, "Maids and the like, I'll talk about it when you move in." If you have anything now, you can tell Xiao Jiu, and he will serve by your side in the future. He said. pushed out a young guy who was about fifteen or sixteen years old and had beautiful eyebrows next to him, and ran away by himself.

Brother Chen said: There are some things that you have to pretend not to know if you know; There are some things, but if you don't know, you have to pretend to know.

He had to pretend he didn't know.

Wu Yi pondered. Run faster.

At noon, Song Mo personally made the east, picking up the wind and washing the dust for the people from Zhending. Mr. Yan and Xia Lian accompanied them together.

This surprised Mr. Chen and others, and added a little gratitude.

And Tian Fugui, who was temporarily pulled, was trembling with excitement, his hands trembled, the wine in the wine cup almost spilled, and his mouth muttered: "It's worth it." It's worth it! Being able to drink the wine of the British prince is worth it in my life! ”

Cui Shisan couldn't help but glare at him fiercely. He reminded in a low voice: "You sit up straight for me, don't disgrace Madame's face." ”

"I know, I know." Tian Fugui muttered, but his hands and feet were weak, and his hands were still shaking.

After a few rounds of drinking, the banquet was dispersed, but he and Cui Shisan, together with Mr. Chen and Duan Guard, were called to the study to drink tea.

He was chaotic, and he didn't know how he got into the study, only that the study was very large and there were a lot of books; He sat on a carved chair of wenge wood, sixteen taels of silver; drank this spring's West Lake Longjing, five taels of silver a pack; The little maid serving tea is only twelve or thirteen years old, but she is dignified and dignified, or wears small red gold earrings on her earlobes, or inserts a silver hairpin from Jiangnan on her head, which looks both decent and noble.

How can the little maid be qualified to wear gold and silver, presumably they are all rewarded by the house.

If those nephews and nieces in the family could enter the British government on an errand, it would really fall into a blessed nest, how good it would be!

He was thinking about it there when he suddenly heard Song Mo ask him, "When did you follow Mrs?" ”

Is the prince talking to him?

Tian Fugui opened his mouth wide, and when he saw Song Mo smiling slightly at him, he was sure that the voice he heard just now was not an illusion.

He hurriedly swallowed his saliva and said hurriedly: "It's the day of Madame and the ceremony." Everyone congratulated their wives, and I wondered how I had to make something different-didn't those officials and lords have to offer auspicious rui on the emperor's birthday? I just want to get an auspicious fortune for my wife. Later, I inquired and inquired, saying that someone in Baoding Mansion had raised a pair of brocade chickens, and I rushed to Baoding Mansion overnight...... "He panicked, his mind was blank, how did he coax and deceive him to buy that pair of brocade chickens, and how did he hide behind the rockery next to the flower hall of Dou Mansion and wait for Dou Zhao to pass by...... The bamboo poured the beans, and all the words were spoken.

Cui Shisan couldn't wait to swallow Tian Fuguisheng.

Song Mo and the others laughed.

Tian Fugui was shocked to realize that he had made a mistake.

He looked at Song Mo in fear, beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead.

"Not bad, not bad." Song Mo smiled kindly and said, "In the future, I will serve my wife with such heart." ”

"Thank you, Lord Shizi!" Tian Fugui came back to his senses and wanted to salute, but his legs were soft. After trying twice, he couldn't stand up, and when he was in a hurry, Song Mo's eyes had fallen on Cui Shisan's body: "You are from the Cui family, right?" ”

Cui 13 stood up, saluted respectfully, and replied "yes".

The courtesy is thoughtful, neither humble nor arrogant.

Song Mo nodded secretly and said with a smile: "Since he is a member of the Cui family, and his wife is also close to each other, there will be nothing to do in the future, and he often comes to the mansion to walk around." Talk to Madame. ”

Cui Shisan's dealings with dignitaries and nobles in Kyoto in the past few years are no longer the Wuxia Amon of the past, and he only regards these as kind words. Smile should be "yes".

After seeing the hearts of the people for a long time, Song Mo didn't say much, thinking that with the addition of Mr. Chen and others, Dou Zhao would have his own guards by his side, and there would never be such a thing as the British Mansion going to the water again. He immediately felt in a good mood, and chatted with Chen Qushui and others for a while with a smile, revealing that "everyone will be a family in the future, and cooperation will benefit both sides, and division will be harmful, and we must live in harmony". Yan Chaoqing even followed Song Mo to talk about the help of the Dou family to the prince at the beginning. His expression was full of gratitude, and he looked like he was my benefactor.

Chen Qushui knew that this was Song Mo calming their hearts, and after being humble. It expresses the meaning of "they have all received the grace of Dou Zhao, where Dou Zhao is, they will follow him, and they will only see Dou Zhao's horse head".

Liao Bifeng listened and admired Dou Zhao greatly.

can instruct these people, can make these people say such things in front of the world, Madame is not ordinary!

He whispered to Yan Chaoqing in a low voice: "Wait for the meeting to disperse." Shall we invite Mr. Chen to drink two more cups separately? ”

Yan Chaoqing also felt that this was necessary, and nodded with a smile.

Song Mo stood up. smiled and said to Chen Qushui and the others: "You have worked hard all the way, take a good rest in the past few days, presumably Mrs. also has a lot to ask you, so I won't delay everyone's rest." ”

Everyone got up together to send Song Mo off.

Song Mo went straight back to the main room and asked Dou Zhao, who was sitting on the big kang near the window doing needlework: "I have a good table today, right?" ”

Dou Zhao couldn't help laughing, put down the needle and thread, and said, "Why are you becoming more and more like a child?" ”

"I'm younger than you!" Song Mo said disapprerovingly, and pulled her needlework to look at it, "What are you doing?" ”

"Make you a winter coat," Dou Zhao smiled, "It's about to be the Spring Festival." ”

Song Mo stared at Dou Zhao and smiled, sat with him for a while, and said with some reluctance: "I'm going to visit Gu Yu later, and you can talk to Mr. Chen." ”

Dou Zhao really has something to discuss with Mr. Chen.

She responded "good" with a smile and sent Song Mo out.

At this time, far away in a remote Sanjin courtyard in the southeast corner of Tanjiazhuang in Lingshou County, the heroic Tan Juren stood respectfully in front of the old lady Tan, whose hair was all white, and was whispering: "The news is from Cangzhou, and there will be no mistake." Not only Cangzhou was in turmoil, but also in Kyoto, Taiyuan, Datong, Tianjin and other places. There are those who fight against each other for the sake of their future brothers, and there are those who turn against each other for the sake of silver, and there are fathers and sons who kill each other. The British prince has a good means, and a few thousand taels of silver will stir up the turmoil in the rivers and lakes, but fortunately, we took the child in our hands without saying a word, otherwise, we don't know what the scene is waiting for us! Saying that, he looked worried, "At that time, he asked us to deal with the fourth lady of the Dou family, but we refused, and I don't know if he remembers?" ”

Old Lady Tan didn't speak, carefully twisted her chest-length beard, and said after a while: "How is Duan Gongyi in the Dou family now?" ”

"It should mix well." Tan Ju said, "Miss Dou Si asked him to go to Kyoto with him." It is said that he will not be back for a while. He asked someone to help take care of the house, and he was going to take his old mother to Kyoto in a few days. ”

Old lady Tan laughed when she heard this, and said, "The fourth lady of the Dou family is married, and we don't seem to have given congratulatory gifts yet, right?" ”

Tan Juren's eyes lit up.

Song Mo's methods are vicious, and they live in seclusion here, for fear of being implicated by Song Mo, and for fear of being hated by Song Mo from afar. Miss Dou Si is high-spirited, but she is a person who can be friends.

"I'll do it!" His voice couldn't help but be a little louder.

Sorry, sorry, I forgot to post...... ⊙_⊙b sweat ......
