Chapter 219: Promotion
Xu Lanyin whispered a few words to the Qin family, meaning that she would go back to the house to rest, and if she didn't meet the old couple, she said that she was not good again and couldn't get out of bed. Let them go back to Xiaozao Village tomorrow......
The Qin family was also angry with the old man, and he didn't want to meet him, so he went back to the house to rest.
Brother He Dong drank tea with the nurses and coachmen, gave them silver bills, and sent them to the inn outside the city to rest.
Xu Lanyin asked Ding Xiaoran to go to the shop and invite Xu Dashi to dinner in the evening. When the old couple heard that Xu Lanyin and the others were back, they hurried back.
On the way, Mrs. Xu and Xu Dashi were still persuading Old Man Xu that the Qin family was a good woman and asked him not to look for trouble. The second room also brought Xu Dashi and his wife to do business in the provincial capital this time, and he remembered it very much. The second son is no longer there, and the grandchildren are separated by another layer, and if the relationship with the daughter-in-law is worse, their relationship with the second room will be even more estranged.
Old man Xu also knew this reason, and he was also satisfied that Xu Lanyin would be a man, but he always remembered the Qin family's "background", and was afraid that those rumors would be true......
As soon as a few people entered the courtyard gate, Xu Lanting rushed over and threw himself into the old lady's arms.
The old lady also missed her little grandson, and hugged him "liver" and "meat" and screamed.
Xu Lanting said sadly, "My mother's illness was better, but she froze on the road again, and she couldn't breathe, so she just asked the doctor to prescribe medicine." ”
Old man Xu scolded angrily, "Let her toss, let her toss, if you don't go to the provincial capital, there will be nothing." ”
Mrs. Xu said angrily, "They just came back, so you can say a few words." ”
A few people entered the Hanging Flower Gate, and Xu Lanyin directly welcomed them into the East Wing Hall and took out the gifts they had given. A bunch of food, a few pieces of silk, and bought two leather coats and two packets of tonic medicine for the old couple, so happy that the old couple smiled and squinted.
Xu Lanyin said, "We have been delayed for a long time this time, one is that my mother's health is not very good, and the other is my daughter who is accompanying Lord Min." I begged Lord Min and asked him to help say hello, and when the county yamen recruited the scribes, I got the Ershi brothers in, and he agreed. He added, "I didn't think about it so much at first, but my mother reminded me." ”
Xu Lanyin's words were vague, and Old Man Xu thought that it was Lord Min and Min Can.
In fact, before Min Can left, Xu Lanyin could help Xu Ershi find a position in the yamen, but she didn't want Xu Ershi to beg for a living under Wang Xiancheng. When the Yiju Restaurant is served, Wang Xiancheng will definitely fall, and then find a way to get Xu Ershi in. At least before Xu Ershi's affairs were done, the old man didn't dare to offend himself and the Qin family lightly.
She agreed to get Xu Ershi to be a scribe, and another reason was that she didn't want Xu Ershi and Gu to get involved in the business of the shop after Xu Dashi and his wife left.
Old man Xu's eyes lit up suddenly. The eldest grandson will go to the provincial capital in the future to run for the future, the great-great-grandson can study in the provincial capital, and the great-great-granddaughter will also marry in the provincial capital. If the second grandson becomes a respected scribe in the yamen again, he doesn't have to worry about him anymore. The old man also knew that the second grandson had no ability, and he was unwilling to endure hardships, no matter how good the business was handed over to him, he couldn't do it, so he had to find a place for him to eat and wait for death. There is no more decent place to eat mixed rice than in the public gate.
He snorted a few times and asked, "When will the yamen recruit people?" ”
Xu Lanyin said, "This is not necessarily. Maybe early next year, maybe at the end of next year, try to get in by the end of next year. ”
By the end of next year, my family may have moved to the provincial capital.
The old man said again, "Okay, good, good granddaughter, I thank you on behalf of Ershi." ”
Xu Lanyin said, "I want to thank my mother, I'm busy every day, I can't think of so much, it's my mother who is mentioning me." Then he instructed, "Do not say anything about this, for it cannot be done if someone makes it bad." Let Ershi practice his words well, his handwriting is unsightly. ”
"Well, well, I know." The old man assured.
Mrs. Xu also said happily, "I have long said that the second daughter-in-law is good and atmospheric, no matter how much money the second child took to help her brother, she didn't say a word." Where is like Gu's, he just wants to get in and doesn't want to go out, and he looks shrewd, but he is actually stingy. Such a person can hold a small amount of money, but he can't make a big fortune. ”
Old man Xu still used the expression you said, "I know, I know in my heart." He added, "The girl who is talking to Ershi, forget it." Although her family has more than a dozen acres of land, she is ugly and not worthy of the handsome Ershi. Ershi will be a person in the public in the future, and he will have more face than the catcher, and he will be laughed at if he marries an ugly wife. ”
Xu Lanyin twitched the corners of her mouth, this old man is still from the appearance association, no wonder the two daughters-in-law he is looking for are good-looking, and Mrs. Xu should look good when she is young. The Li family is average-looking, but her mother's family is much thicker than the Xu family, and she was accompanied by two acres of land.
Mrs. Xu nodded, she also felt that her second grandson should find a better girl if he had a good future.
When Xu Lanzhou came back and said goodbye, everyone started to eat dinner, and the old couple and Xu Dashi also drank. Before Xu Dashi left, Xu Lanyin told him privately about the Li family and the small shop.
The next day, after sending the old couple away, Xu Lanyin asked people to invite Mrs. Hu's mother and daughter and Hu's mother and wife to come to the house for dinner, and then bring them back with things.
As soon as Hu Yi got the news, he hurriedly brought Mrs. Hu over. She hugged Xu Lanyin and said goodbye, "My father is now handling the business in the county, and our family will move to the provincial capital in the next year...... What to do, I can't bear you, and I can't bear to give up the little pavilion and the little star. ”
Xu Lanyin said with a smile, "My family also has a business in the provincial capital, and I will often go there in the future." ”
Xu Lanting especially didn't like Hu Yi to call him Xiaotingting, and felt that this name was too feminine. corrected solemnly, "Sister Yi, call me Xiaolanting." ”
Hu Yi chuckled, "I just like to call you Xiaotingting." ”
Xu Lanting couldn't, so he had to take Xiaoxing to the courtyard to wait for Hu and Sister Fang.
Later, Hu Shi came with a pair of children, and she was followed by Xiaochan. Xiaochan actually combed the woman's hair, wore gorgeous heavy makeup, wore satin clothes, and wore a few hostas and red gold hairpins.
Is this a promotion?
Seeing Xu Lanyin's surprised eyes, Hu Shiqiang smiled and said, "Now Xiaochan is Aunt Chan." ”
Xu Lanyin silently sympathized with Hong Zhen and Hu Shi in her heart for a second, paying tribute to the heroes who fought on the special front. Then he smiled at Aunt Chan, "Congratulations to Aunt Chan." ”
Aunt Chan smiled brightly and said, "It's my uncle and grandmother who are sympathetic to me." ”
Hu Shi was confused, and Mrs. Hu pouted.
Everyone sat down, the masters sat on chairs, and Aunt Chan sat on a brocade stool.
Aunt Chan blushed with anger, but smiled happily. scolded Xu Lanyin in her heart, a country girl, and a pair of powerful eyes. At home, she sits on the same chair as her master, and her grandfather values her more than the Hu family. Faint first, and then clean up this dead girl after achieving great things.
