Chapter 452: Presumptuousness
Subtle is subtle, the three brothers and sisters of the Xie family did not say anything.
Xie Xianzhi is indeed the grandson of the Cao family, and among the girls waiting beside him, there are also people from the Cao family, and even relatives and friends who are still serving in the Cao family, so it is impossible to completely draw a line with the Cao family. And the Xie family also has an eldest lady, Xie Yinghui, who is still in the Cao family's Chengenhou Mansion, serving her seriously ill grandmother, Duchess Chengen. If Xiao Rui has reservations about Xie Xianzhi because of these considerations, it is also human nature.
Moreover, he didn't distrust the Xie family because he was worried about Xie Xianzhi's identity, and still entrusted people to the Xie family to take care of. This is enough to show his sincerity.
Since Xiao Rui is so sincere, Xie Mulin hasn't said anything, Xie Jinzhi has secretly made up his mind to take care of the witnesses in Qianwan Village, so as to live up to Xiao Rui's trust.
Then they began to discuss the situation of the group of witnesses, how many men and women, how old they were, and what was the condition of the sick person? How serious are the injuries of the injured person? When will you move to the old house, and how will you arrange your life? How to deliver rice, noodles, meat and vegetables every day? Do I need to add more bedding and clothing? Which doctor is there to invite from the Du Family Medical Center......
Xiao Rui has dealt with the second master of the Du family, and now he knows the level of the doctors and apprentices in the Du family medical hall. He even thought about the reason for inviting a doctor, and also pulled in the cooperation of his colleagues who had just taken over the Qianhu Office of Pingwang Town, and when the time came, it would be good to say that it was Jinshanwei's wounded soldiers who would continue to recuperate in the Xie family's old mansion. The Xie family is responsible for the procurement work, and the family members can take care of the patients. As long as these witnesses themselves don't run around, they are generally safe. The Thousand Households Office of Pingwang Town even planned to send a few people over to be guards, so it would be even more foolproof. After the spring of next year, Xiao Rui's own order to go north came down, and the injured and sick also recuperated, and then sent people to the north, and everything will be fine.
The Cao family has a bunch of things themselves, and they will soon have to keep filial piety, the Huang family does not have the help of the Cao family, and it is difficult to get their own family, it is good to be able to free up their hands to fight with the commander of Jinpeng, and if they want to extinguish their mouths, they should first attack those important witnesses who were taken into Beijing. By the time they remembered to take out their anger on these inconspicuous little witnesses, they would have long since disappeared, where else could they find them?
After discussing with Xiao Rui, the three Xie Mulin brothers and sisters were quite satisfied with each other. Xie Huizhi couldn't sit still, so he said, "I want to go and see those people first to see if they can walk." If not, we will use our boat to take them to the old house. ”
Xie Mulin also said: "Now there is Jia Da guarding the door in the old mansion, which is quite stable. Originally, there were a few people who wanted to see how cement was used in construction, but there was no movement after entering the New Year, and they had seen everything they should see, and it is estimated that they would not come again. When the witnesses settle down here, I plan to recall Jia Da back, and then this old mansion will be handed over to you Jinshanwei, or the people of the Thousand Households in Pingwang Town. We will arrange for someone to bring food over, and everything will be left in front of the door, and it will not enter the house if there is nothing to do. There was a well in the house, and there was a lot of charcoal in store, which was enough for them to live. We will also go to greet a few tenants in the neighborhood, but it is just that Jin Shanwei has taken a fancy to this place and sent some wounded soldiers over. The women and children were regarded as hired servants of Jinshanwei to take care of the sick. Second Young Master Xiao remembered to remind his subordinates not to show their stuffing. ”
Of course, it's not a big problem to expose the stuffing, and these tenants in the sect are honest people who don't like to chew their tongues. She was just worried that the farmers might visit relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year, and it was not a bad thing to be careful.
Xiao Rui understood her intentions, smiled and agreed, got up and walked outside the door again, and after a while, he came back with a beard, but it was the injured military attache he had seen last time. Looking at it now, the injury on my foot seems to be better, and I don't walk as lame as when we last met.
The beard was as hearty as ever, and took the initiative to greet the three "Young Master Xie", among which he was most familiar with "Xie Ershao" and Xie Sanshao, and said with a smile: "We are now settled in Pingwang Town, not far from your Huyin County, so we have time to play." Pingwang Town is much more lively than Huyin County! ”
Xie Jinzhi and Xie Huizhi were stunned for a moment, and then they realized who he was talking about "Xie Ershao", and they all agreed with a dry smile. Xie Mulin secretly wiped his sweat and deliberately made his pronunciation more coarse: "It turns out that you also came to Pingwang Town to work?" ”
The bearded man told them that he was originally just a small banner in Jinshanwei, but when he caught the group of bandits disguised as homeless people, he was very heroic, and he was seriously injured, and he had to recuperate on his feet for a long time before he could walk normally, and he almost became disabled. Shangguan saw that he was so brave and made great contributions, so he promoted him to be the general banner.
One of Jin Shanwei's five-grade thousand households was trusted and valued by the commander, and this time he was transferred to the post of a thousand households in Pingwang Town. Almost all the people in the Qianhu Institute were affected by the original Huang Qianhu, and few of them were removed from their posts and imprisoned by those who were imprisoned, so the newly appointed Zeng Qianhu formed a whole team from Jinshan Weili and took office together. Now that the commander is in charge of Zhejiang's military affairs, this kind of appointment can be done as long as he makes up a paperwork, and Jin Shanwei is not stupid, and of course he will not give away the benefits he has received.
Luo Hu's original surname is Zheng Mingfeng, and he is one of Zeng Qianhu's henchmen, and it is not surprising that he was brought to Pingwang Town to take up his post. Xiao Rui received the task from Commander Jin, and took people to leave Hangzhou by boat, and he must inform Zeng Qianhu in Pingwang Town, and let the other party take more care of them on the canal. Now that Zeng Qianhu sent Zheng Feng over to help Xiao Rui, he naturally had an agreement with Xiao Rui.
With the endorsement of the thousands of households in Pingwang Town, the brothers and sisters of the Xie family are even more confident about the task of covering the group of witnesses.
In fact, to put it bluntly, this matter doesn't need the Xie family to come forward, and the Qianhu Office in Pingwang Town can protect people by themselves. But the Xie family provided a house and provided daily necessities, even if it was a favor for Jin Shanwei and the thousand households in Pingwang Town, whether it was Jin Peng or that Zeng Qianhu, they had to remember this favor. Xiao Rui sent the ready-made favors to the Xie family, not to mention the smart Xie Jinzhi and Xie Mulin, even the youngest Xie Huizhi immediately understood his kindness, and looked at him closer.
After greeting the Xie family's "brothers", Zheng Feng took Xie Huizhi to Qianwan Village to meet people. He actually has a job in hand, and he has just arrived in office, and he has a lot of things to do. When Xiao Rui settled down, he was going to leave immediately. The people of the Xie family were willing to lend a hand, and he was indescribably happy and relieved in his heart.
It's all acquaintances.
Only Xie Jinzhi, Xie Mulin and Xiao Rui were left in the room, the three of them looked at each other and smiled, and then drank tea separately, and suddenly felt that the room was a little quiet. Xie Mulin wanted to retrieve the loom a little, and in case Xiao Rui had a secret to discuss, she left all the people she brought on the dock. Now that we're done talking, can she pick up an excuse to go out today?
At this time, Xie Jinzhi broke the silence first. He asked Xiao Rui: "Second Young Master Xiao plans to go north and garrison in the border town, is he bent on seeking military merits?" It's a bit sinister, isn't it? I also hope that Second Young Master Xiao will take care of himself. ”
Xiao Rui smiled: "I want to seek military merits, but it is also my long-cherished wish to contribute to the court and the people and protect the family and defend the country." It's not interesting to stay in the capital to eat and wait for death, and it's also boring to boil qualifications in Jinshanwei. Even if the border town is dangerous, I hope to do more useful things, instead of hiding in the rear to enjoy peace because of fear. ”
Xie Jinzhi was suddenly in awe.
At this time, Xiao Rui glanced at Xie Mulin a few more times: "Second son Xie, let me ask a presumptuous word - I don't know if Sister Ling has a marriage match?" ”
Xie Mulin was still lamenting the heroism of the soldiers, but he was immediately choked when he heard the words.
