Chapter 238: Digging a Well
Xia Wenbin came back with the title deed and talked to his mother-in-law's wife, and the two thanked him again, Wei Wu saw that the fire was almost over, so he made an appointment with Xia Wenbin to invite someone to see the terrain tomorrow, and then he said goodbye and left!
Xia Wenbin sent him straight to the entrance of the alley before he came back, and turned his head to see his mother-in-law, but it was a long salute.
"Thank you father-in-law and mother-in-law for their help, my son-in-law is grateful!"
Wang smiled and waved his hand,
"We don't expect you to thank you for doing this, we just study hard in logistics, can be named on the gold list, and treat Jun'er well, we are already satisfied!"
Xia Wenbin was busy with the right color,
"Mother-in-law, don't worry, my son-in-law will treat her well!"
Wang nodded with satisfaction, and then discussed with them again, this house needs to buy furniture, and there is also a need to find a servant to guard the door.
In the evening, when Han Shifeng returned home and asked about his second daughter, Wang smiled,
"Everything has been done, and it is a coincidence, I met Brother Wu of the Wei family, who helped pass the title deed in the yamen, and Ming'er will bring someone to dig a well!"
Han Shifeng said suspiciously when he heard this,
"Brother Wu of the Wei family, who are you talking about?"
Wang Shi glanced at him and said,
"How...... When the two daughters got married, they received a big gift from others, and Zhang Luo was busy running before and after, how long did it take to forget about people? ”
Only then did Han Shifeng realize that she was talking about Wei Wu, and couldn't help frowning,
"How did that kid get there?"
What a ghost!
Han Shifeng is not the Wang family, he can't find the southeast and northwest if he is offered a few words of courtesy, that kid doesn't look dignified, he looks honest and honest, but he only has a pair of eyes but is too flexible, obviously he is a thing full of bad water, he can hide it from others, but he can't hide it from me!
Wang didn't know what her husband was muttering in her heart, and said with a smile,
"He's living in that alley!"
"How...... He also bought a house? ”
Wang glanced at him and said,
"You are so strange, people are now promoted to a hundred households of brocade clothes, how can you not settle down and buy a house! It's weird! ”
When Han Shifeng heard that Wei Wu had been promoted, he sneered,
"To be a brocade guard, the bigger the official, the more unjust souls there are under his hands, what is there to be proud of!"
Wang was so angry that he turned around and didn't wait for him to change his clothes, and let him stand there with his arms outstretched.
"You are an abominable man! Did Brother Wu offend you in any way? Seeing that people are respectful, and they are also enthusiastic to help each other when there is something in this family, how can you look at him unpleasantly! ”
Han Shifeng saw that his wife was annoyed, so he didn't give a helper, so he had to take off his official uniform.
"Madame doesn't know, there is no good person in this brocade guard, especially in the Fusi Yamen of Nabei Town!"
Wang snorted when he heard this,
"There are no good people in the Jinyi Guard, but there are good people in the six of you? It's not the same to eat and take the card or? They are all listening to the orders of the higher authorities and doing errands for the emperor, who is higher than whom! ”
Ignore him and go out angrily!
Han Shifeng was so angry that his beard curled,
"Whew! Woman's view! What a woman's opinion! ”
On the second day, Wei Wu really called a group of craftsman friends to help the Xia family find water and dig wells, Xia Wenbin was very happy to see this, and after he saw the terrain and determined the location of the water, he saw that the day and hour had broken ground, and Xia Wenbin wanted to invite everyone to eat and drink, but Wei Wu stopped him.
"Just come and take a look today, the days will be long in the future, and Brother Xia doesn't have to be in a hurry!"
But he led the people and left.
After that, things went well, after breaking the ground, I saw the wet soil in the ground, and then there was clear water gushing out in the lower half of the zhang, Xia Wenbin tasted it but it was very sweet, and he was overjoyed at the moment,
"What water!"
Everyone congratulated their master,
"Good water and good wells will inevitably lead to prosperity!"
The bottom of this compartment is built with bricks and stones, and the well is made to be placed on the top, and you only need to place a bucket with a rope to get water at home, which is very convenient.
When everything was in order, Xia Wenbin was about to invite everyone to eat and drink, and then he went into the backyard and asked Han Jundao, who was packing up his things,
"Do you still have any money at home?"
Han Jun thought about it and turned over about three or four taels of broken silver from the box.
"That's all there is to it!"
This is still the eldest sister who is afraid that she will have a new home, and she will have no flowers in her hand, so she quietly stuffed it into her privately!
Xia Wenbin took it and checked it, but his face was a little embarrassed.
"How much is it going to be?"
Han Jun nodded,
"That's it!"
It is enough to invite a dozen people to eat and drink in a small shop outside with such a little money, but Xia Wenbin thought that everyone dug a well and did not collect a penny, and now they invite people to eat and drink, how can they be stingy, how can they also invite a good table at the table!
As soon as he said what was in his heart, Han Jun also nodded,
"What the husband said is that we haven't even spent a cent on our wages for digging wells, and we don't invite people to eat some good food, which is too much to do!"
After thinking about it, I went through my jewelry box and took out a gold hairpin.
"Take this hairpin as an emergency, I think it's enough!"
"This ......"
Xia Wenbin couldn't bear his wife as jewelry, so he waved his hand and said,
"How can you be your dowry, and wait for me to think about it again!"
After that, he carried the three or four taels of broken silver, and went out regardless of Han Jun's call!
When I got outside, I invited everyone to eat and drink, and called my own little guy to go to the alley, and the Wei Mansion asked if Uncle Wei was not at home, and the little guy came back and said,
"Second young master, the little one went to inquire, and said that Wei Ye was not at home today, but a Liu Ye came out of it, saying that Uncle Wei had booked a table in Jiuzhen Building in front of him, so let's get it right, and then we will go over!"
When everyone heard this, they applauded,
"The dishes in Jiuzhen Building are the most difficult to order, and sure enough, our Wei Ye has a wide range of people!"
Xia Wenbin secretly complained when he heard it,
"Then Jiuzhen Lou doesn't need one or twenty taels of silver to eat once, how can you get it!"
At the moment, he was busy smiling and arching his hand at everyone,
"Wait a minute, you can go in and change your clothes!"
This person hurriedly went in to find Han Jun, and said with a bitter face,
"Wei Wu booked a table in Jiuzhen Building, and now I am difficult to ride a tiger, I'm afraid that if you are not a golden hairpin, it will not work!"
Han Jun listened and said,
"That's the case, just take it as a pawn, you can't let your husband lose face!"
After that, he called Xia Wenbin's personal servant to come in,
"Xia Cheng, take this thing quietly, don't let people see it!"
Xia Cheng took it and hurriedly put it away, Xia Wenbin took his wife's hand and said apologetically,
"When you have money, I will redeem it for you!"
Han Jun smiled and said,
"It's okay, when I get the title of the husband's gold list, I will be hit ten by such a hairpin!"
This car pushed Xia Wenbin out, and the group went to the Jiuzhen Building, this meal was really good and the food was very enjoyable, and it was only when Xia Wenbin was going to check out that he was noted.
"You can't accept your small silver, the former master Wei has already pressed the silver on our cabinet, and the account of your table has been settled!"
When Xia Wenbin heard this, he only asked the shopkeeper to accept his own silver, and returned Wei Wu's silver, and the shopkeeper said with a bitter face,
"Don't be embarrassed, Wei Ye is good friends with our young owner, this is ordered by the young owner, if the small one accepts your silver, Ming'er will roll up and leave!"
Xia Wenbin had no choice but to let Xia Cheng run away again, ransomed his wife's golden hairpin again, and returned home to return the golden hairpin to Han Jun, Han Junqi said,
"How did you not do it properly, how did you pay for the banquet?"
Xia Wenbin sighed when he heard it,
"I only thought that Wei Wu was a brocade guard, he must be a sinister and cunning, ruthless man, and I heard that he was born in the market, but he was a bastard on the street, I think he must be vulgar, and he forgets his righteousness, but I didn't expect it......"
Talking about Jiuzhen Lou at this time, Han Jun smiled and put his gold hairpin into the jewelry box.
"This man is a very righteous person, when he is free, the husband should treat him to a good meal!"
Xia Wenbin nodded and said,
"Naturally, I want to thank each other!"
Han Jun's young couple's new house has finally been cleaned up, that is, they have a new home, and they want to invite relatives and friends to come over and have a lively time, Xia Wenbin likes to be quiet and doesn't like to socialize, but Han Jun loves to be lively, the little couple discussed but were ready to invite the family on both sides, not too many people, and their own family members were more comfortable, but Wei Wu, a good friend who made a lot of efforts, naturally couldn't help but invite!
Xia Wenbin personally wrote an invitation and sent it to Weifu, who was both a friend and a neighbor, so he invited Wei Wu's old lady together, Wu Shi did not go out at home for a long time, and he was very happy to be invited, so he pulled Bai Lu to choose clothes, turned out all the things in the cage and was looking for it, and Wei Wu came back.
Seeing the chaos in this room, I couldn't help laughing,
"It's rare that the old lady is interested in finding clothes to wear today!"
Wu smiled when he heard that his son was back,
"Even if you want to go out as a guest, you can't lose your manners, you have to dress up and dress up......"
As he spoke, he took out a set of dresses and groped his fingers on the face,
"This dress is a good material, but it has been left for too long, I'm afraid it won't look good!"
Bai Lu answered on the side,
"Godmother, this dress has been left for a long time, and some of it has faded, so I'm afraid I'll make people laugh when I wear it!"
Wu went to turn over the inside again, Wei Wu said,
"Mother! Mother! Don't look for it, you're all old things, you can't wear them, why don't you go out and buy two new clothes now......"
Wu was reluctant to give up the silver, so he said angrily,
"You lie to me, this blind mother-in-law, why can't you wear it, I'll just look for it!"
Wei Wu really bluffed her and said,
"Mother, Ming'er went to the Xia Mansion, but there are two six-grade officials and wives, they all wear gold and silver, and they are all dressed in silk and satin, you must earn some dignity for your son!"
Wu thought about it when he heard this, and felt that what his son said was very right,
"That's right, my son is now also an official of the sixth grade, and I can't let people look down on him!"
At the moment, he didn't even pack up the things in the house, and urged Wei Wu to go out again and again.
"It's not early, go early, pick a little longer!"
