Chapter 220: Acting
A few women were talking about homely things, Aunt Chan picked up the tea bowl and coughed, Hu seemed to have received an order, and smiled at Xu Lanyin, "Why have you stayed in the provincial capital for so long?" My family Fang'er has been talking about Uncle Xiao and Little Star many times. ”
This is the news of the snooping. Xiaochan has become Hu's upline, and Hu still has to listen to her.
Xu Lanyin said with a smile, "My family bought a house and two shops in the provincial capital, and they are busy decorating. Also, Lord Min went to the capital on a business trip, and the sister of the Min family had a good time with Lanting and Xiaoxing, so we went to accompany her again. In fact, we have wanted to come back for a long time, especially my mother, who is in a hurry. ”
Hu Shi smiled again, "Miss Xu is smart, she had a good relationship with the girl of the Ling family in Min County before, and Brother Zhao went to the county government to become a catcher. Now that he has a good relationship with the girl from Lord Min's family, Brother Zhao will definitely be able to be transferred to the criminal prosecution in the future, and maybe he can become an official. ”
The words are a little sour, which means that Xu Lanyin achieves a certain goal by settling with the daughters of the big officials. This is a very unpleasant statement, but this statement is currently the most beneficial to Xu Lanyin, and she attributed her relationship with the Min Hu to her impure purpose, and went to the Min Hu for the sake of Zhao Wu...... It should be Hong Zhen who asked her to say it, in order to confuse Aunt Chan and the people behind her.
Hu is so good at acting, of course Xu Lanyin has to cooperate. She was deliberately stunned, brushed her face, quickly adjusted her facial expression, and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law Hong said with a smile." Zhao Wucan't be a catcher, he has the ability, I just introduced it through Mrs. Min. As for Lord Min, he is the sky, and we ordinary people are the earth, and we can't stammer if we want to. To tell the truth, I haven't met Master Min twice, and I have always communicated through my subordinates. As for whether Zhao Wu can go to the prosecution according to the prosecutor, it depends on his true ability. ”
A few words pushed Hu Shi back.
Aunt Chan was so angry that she secretly scolded the Hu family for a few words of "stupid girls", and asked Xu Lanyin with a smile, "It is said that the eldest sister of the Min family can't speak, and she is a little stupid, is it true?" ”
Xu Lan was secretly angry, but it was not easy to attack. smiled, "It's true that you can't speak, it's not stupid, it's just not very smart." She had a good time with Lan Ting and Little Star, and her nurse was happy, so I often took my two children to Min Mansion to accompany her. ”
Hu Yi couldn't hear the wit in their words, and when he saw them laughing, he felt that they had a good relationship. Mrs. Hu frowned, and said secretly, Hong Zhen accepted a little woman, is Hu stupid, even this kind of thing can be said in public, and she has to be reminded another day.
When Aunt Hu was allowed to sit on the brocade stool just now, Xu Lanyin could see that she was very unhappy. In order to be angry with her, when eating dinner, Xu Lanyin still wanted to pretend to be stupid and set a small table for her.
Hu Shi hurriedly smiled, "When I was at home, our lord said that there were few people in the family, so he asked Aunt Chan to eat at the same table with us." ”
It means that Aunt Chan is also allowed to eat with them at the same table here.
The Hu family can endure it, and Xu Lanyin can endure it.
The two families played until the next day before leaving.
The next day, Xu Lanyin went to Tian's carpenter shop and ordered a small carved table frame of wenge wood, and waited for Qin's "poppy beauty" to be embroidered and inlaid into it.
In addition, a number of pairs of chess, military chess, and checkers were ordered, and they were designated to be made of good wood such as wenge wood and nanmu. The chessboard was made by a carpenter shop in the provincial capital, and the drawings had already been given to Ding Gu.
Afraid of causing trouble, he changed the "king" and "queen" in chess to "marshal" and "supervising the army", and his appearance was also changed. The "king" and "queen" of feudal society are the supreme rulers, and the masses cannot be entertained on the chessboard.
Two days later, Qin's "illness" was cured, so he asked people to notify Xu Zhiniang's family to come from home.
Xu Zhiniang brought a man, son, daughter-in-law, and grandson to play for a day. They carried 50 catties of peanuts, 50 catties of home-squeezed soybean oil, and two large baskets of home-made mung bean sprouts and soybean sprouts.
Xu Lanyin had only been in contact with Xu Zhiniang twice before, and she hadn't said a few words, but this day made her impression of Xu Zhiniang much better.
At noon, he also invited Xu Dashi to accompany his uncle to drink.
Xu Lanyin saw that Xu Dashi seemed to have something to say to her, so she took him to the side room.
Xu Dashi whispered, "This morning, Wang Zao came to tell me that his wife was seriously ill, and he wanted to go home to take care of his wife, so he would not work in the shop." ”
Wang Li is the eye money sent by the above to monitor the Yiju Restaurant, and Xu Dashi also knows about this.
Xu Lanyin said secretly, Min Hu said that he would send some other people to investigate Yiju Restaurant, and it was likely that someone would replace Wang Li. "Maybe someone else has taken over." ”
Xu Dashi asked, "Then do I continue to monitor?" ”
Xu Lanyin said, "The king is gone, you don't care, pay attention to safety." ”
Xu Dashi nodded.
On the twelfth day, Wang Sanni and Wang Jincai came to Xu's house. Mrs. Wang has already passed the seventh month, and they are also ready, and they will leave for the provincial capital tomorrow.
Xu Lanyin explained some precautions, asked them to squeeze with the Li family before renting the house, and wrote a letter to the shopkeeper Wu for her to forward.
Wang Sanni was very happy to hear that Xu Lanyin would go to the provincial capital again in another twenty years.
Fifteenth, Xu Lanyin made some glutinous rice, sweet dates and sesame biscuits and took them to Daxiang Temple. The old monk was still thinking about it, so he asked the little monk to make it on his behalf. This time, I didn't dare to add any material, for fear of being caught and punished again. Even without ingredients, it's better than what he usually eats.
Wild Bee Ridge is snow-capped and covered in silver. He Dong sent the mule cart at the bottom of the mountain, and accompanied Xu Lanyin and Zhangqi up the mountain. He handed over the dim sum to the little monk who knew it, and went to the main hall to worship the Buddha, donated ten taels of silver sesame oil money, and begged the Bodhisattva to bless Zhao Wu to come back safely.
Back in the county seat, the sun has set.
What Xu Lanyin didn't expect was that Gui Axe actually came, and he was accompanied by He Xi to drink tea in the West Chamber.
The excuse for He Dong and He Xi to come to Xu's house was that this was a request that Zhao Wu made to Minhu before he went to handle the case. said that his sister was beautiful, and she was frightened at the Longxing Inn, he was not at home, and someone had to protect his sister. Min Hu wanted Zhao Wu to handle the case easily, so he had to let the two of them come to Xu's house temporarily.
He Dong pretended to complain that they were the guardians of Lord Min's mansion, but now they are in charge of the country girls, and even the cars they drive are mule carts......
Gui Axe smiled and comforted them, "Brother Zhao has strong martial arts and a bright future, he will definitely have a good future when he comes back from this case, you guys have a relationship with him first, that's right." ”
He Dong pouted and said, "If you don't become an official, you will raise your tail to the sky, and if you dare to ask unreasonable instructions to Lord Min, you will not have a great future......
Xu Lanyin was very enthusiastic about Gui Axe and said with a smile, "Gui Ye is drinking at my house in the evening, and I will personally cook a few good dishes for you." ”
Gui Axe smiled, "Miss Xu is polite. I came to Nanping to do some business. When Miss Xu invited me to your house for dinner, I came cheekily. ”
