Chapter 95: Youzhou (51)
"The head of Dali Village, Li Mai, led one hundred and forty-one villagers to thank the Lan family." After the old man stood in front of the Lan family and finished speaking, he knelt down directly. The people behind him also knelt down.
Lu Yingfang, who was standing in front of the door, said that she was helpless, but she couldn't stop it!
"Village Chief Li, villagers, please get up quickly." She could only hurry up and help people up.
Village Chief Li said: "I heard that the nobles are about to set off, so the old man will not delay your time." With that, he looked behind him.
A few villagers came up with a few bags.
"It's all some food, and the nobles don't dislike it." Village Chief Li sneered.
Where did Lu Yingfang dare to refuse, and hurriedly said: "It's all the heart of the big guy, thank you so much!" ”
If you resign, it means that you are disgusted, and the villagers are relatively simple and dare not let them think too much.
There were more than 200 cavalrymen escorting the Lan family into Beijing this time, which shows that the Lan family is in the heart of the emperor! Everyone in Youzhou looked at the Lan family's carriage with super envious eyes.
The ten-mile long pavilion is nothing more than that.
From the beginning of the Lan family's carriage following the officers and soldiers, the streets of Pingyang Mansion were already full of people, and everyone wanted to send some special products to the Lan family. Helplessly, the Lan family was already stuffed, and in the end, the soldiers were stuffed with things. There's no way, don't do it! The people shoved into your hands, and they hid in the crowd. There's no way to pay it back!
In the end, Zeng Xing, the leader of the general, nodded, and the soldiers went out of the city with a bunch of things.
And near the gate of the city, there were more people.
Lu Yingfang sat in the carriage, lifted the curtain of the carriage window, and waved to the people non-stop.
The so-called ten-mile long pavilion is like this!
When I went out of the city, I found that there were so many things that the wagon carrying grain could not fit at all.
Zeng Xing had no choice but to go to the front and ask Lu Yingfang: "Old lady, there are too many things, you can see if the carriage can fit some." ”
Unlike when they came, the Lan family's carriages were as streamlined as possible, and now there are more than 30 carriages back to Beijing.
Among them, there are books written by Xiao Changshan, which she asked her to take to the capital to be printed.
The things that Lord Tao Lingzhi gave to his son in the capital were two carriages and four grooms. Well, Lord Tao is probably just using the army and the Lan family as bodyguards.
It may be that the emperor hopes that the Lan family will return to Beijing soon, so he sent a cavalry regiment over. This time, the speed of the carriage increased significantly, and everyone successfully got motion sickness on the first day.
"Fortunately, the Sun family didn't follow, otherwise I would have to be born immediately!" When Lu Yingfang was dizzy, she was still thinking about it.
The Sun family naturally didn't want to be left alone in Youzhou City, but she was about to give birth! Mrs. Song Rong took her into the Song Mansion and took care of her personally. Lan Rongzhuan couldn't stay in Youzhou, this was explained by the emperor himself. All the men of the Lan family have returned to Beijing!
Lan Rongcheng sat in Aunt Bai's carriage, and some people were restless!
"Cheng'er, the Zhou family deceived people too much, and your sister's affairs depend on you." Aunt Bai was full of fighting spirit, and her eyes were burning.
Lan Yajie said softly: "Mother, don't embarrass the second brother." "As long as it wasn't suspended, the reputation would be better. It's good for two kids too.
Aunt Bai hated that iron could not become steel: "That week, the family worshiped high and low, even if they begged you, you were not allowed to go back!" After a trip to Youzhou, Aunt Bai's horizons broadened, and the fierce Youzhou City completely changed her mind.
Lan Yajie naturally knew that even if she went back to the Zhou family, it would only be for the sake of the Lan family's recovery. In the past eight months, she has not received a word from the child's father, and she has long been dead.
Aunt Bai said hatefully: "It's all your fault, I said that the Zhou family kid was a good one, if it weren't for you, your father would have ordered this family for Jie'er?" ”
At the beginning, it was indeed Lan Rongcheng who intended to pull the strings. After all, his grandmother is not a good person, he sees Zhou Mao as a good person, with a simple family background and a good character. He deliberately mentioned Zhou Mao in front of his father. Sure enough, his father understood what he meant, and after understanding the Zhou family, he asked his mother-in-law to say goodbye.
Because the Zhou family is not a rich and noble person, and they can't give Lan Rongcheng too much help, his mother-in-law naturally won't object. This family affair is settled.
Lan Rongcheng has no memory of anything, and he is a little helpless to be complained about by Aunt Bai like this.
Lan Yajie tugged on Aunt Bai's sleeve: "Mother, don't say it." My brother doesn't remember. "In the beginning, this family business was really good! In order to prevent her mother-in-law from handling her marriage, her twin brother has been helping her find a candidate for the past few years.
Zhou Mao's father was born in Bapin, and Zhou Mao was just a talent. Because she is from the Hou Mansion, everyone provides for her. She brought a large dowry, was good at winning people's hearts, and lived like a fish in water in the back house. Although the bad news of her brother's "death" came soon after, her brother was subsequently canonized by the emperor as a third-grade general, and her father treated her even better. Then she gave birth to twins, which would have been a disaster if they had been in the royal family or in the hands of the powerful. But in ordinary people's homes, they don't feel that way. She's doing really well!
Aunt Bai probably felt that her son was back and had a backbone, so she continued to nag: "Yajie's dowry must be returned." Now that the Lan family is poor, I don't know if all these dowries will be given to you. ”
Lan Rongcheng couldn't stand it anymore: "Mother will definitely not treat Yajie harshly." "Aunt Bai is the biological mother, but the grandmother is the one who controls everything, he looks at the character of the grandmother, and will never withhold Yajie's dowry.
It is a law to say that the one who knows you best is your enemy. Aunt Bai's worries are right, if it was the original Lu Yingfang, she would definitely have to accept Yajie's dowry.
Lan Rong got out of the carriage with a burning butt and went directly to Lan Rongzhuan's carriage. There is no way, the eldest brother and the fourth brother are with their daughters, and the carriage on the third brother's side is only the third brother and Dingxin father and son, which are more suitable for taking him in.
This time, the speed of returning to Beijing was significantly accelerated, and in about a month, they returned to the capital.
The emperor gave a small mansion to the Lan family on the side next to the eldest princess's mansion. The house is relatively small, and the people of the Lan family live full. The next day, Lu Yingfang took her four sons into the palace.
Xu is the limelight of the Lan family is too big, so their entry into the palace has caused a lot of onlookers. All the princes, princesses, and palace concubines took the opportunity to come and take a look.
The emperor looked at the old lady Lan and the four sons of the Lan family who were kneeling on the ground, and couldn't help shaking his head, this old lady of the Lan family was too capable of tossing. He looked around, wondering if the ancestor of the Lan family would follow him? However, ordinary wandering spirits and wild ghosts should not be able to enter the palace, especially in this Jinluan Palace.
It is written in the script that Jiang Xuewei's ancestor is already on an errand in the underworld, which means that the ancestor of the Lan family is on an errand in the underworld? It should be an official body, can you enter the palace at this level?
Just when the emperor was thinking nonsense, Zeng Ge Lao coughed lightly. The emperor came to his senses and asked them to get up.
Except for Lan Ronghe, who was wearing a military uniform, the rest of the people were all white, and they were naturally dressed very ordinary. Especially Lu Yingfang still has a wooden hairpin on her head, how simple and how to wear it.
The emperor was a little reluctant: "Who is Lan Rongcheng?" ”
Lan Rongcheng was named, and saluted: "It's the grass people." Before entering the palace, all the etiquette was repeated many times, and Lan Rongcheng was about to get impatient.
The emperor said: "No need to be polite. ”
"I'm just saying, why are you tossing people like this. The emperor said that there was no need to be polite. Lan Rongcheng didn't wait for the emperor to say the next sentence before he suddenly shouted out.
Everyone present was shocked.
Lan Rongcheng held his waist: "Your Majesty, they were afraid that I would make a mistake, so they caught me practicing etiquette until midnight yesterday." ”
"Haha......" The emperor was suddenly relaxed by this divine turn.
By the time the Lan family left the palace, the good news immediately spread all over the place.
Lan Rongcheng was given by the emperor because of "death", but the emperor still cashed in. Therefore, Lan Rongcheng is currently the highest official in the Lan family.
Lan Ronghe was promoted through meritorious service and became a positive fourth product. The rest of the people were rewarded, of course, a thousand taels of silver and a hundred taels of gold.
The Lan family's house was blocked for a long time.
Zeng Zhu was entrusted by the eldest princess to personally bring gifts to the door, and at this time, Luo Dangjia, Huang Dangjia and Peng Dangjia, who bought ice-making recipes at that time, all came to the door with gifts.
Dr. Li from Renhetang came to congratulate!
Jiafu is also lively here.
"Old lady, the queen has sent someone!" The subordinate ran in panting, and scared Mrs. Jia so much that she slipped under her feet and almost fell.
By the time Jia Qi returned home, the house was already in chaos!
"The old lady has fainted...... "Jia Qi's concubine stepped forward to tell you.
By the time Jia Qi understood what had happened, he was already dumbfounded!
The female officer sent by the queen read out the not-so-long admonition, and the old lady was a talented daughter, who knew a little bit about writing, and was a little confused about the content of the admonition.
Until the public beside the female official publicly said: "The eldest girl of the Lan family is virtuous and virtuous, Lan Xinhui is temperamental, and she couldn't bear to see her old mother leave Beijing before, so she made peace with Master Jia and went to fulfill her filial piety." Miss Blue's dowry should also be returned within three days. ”
Mrs. Jia was stunned, Jia Qi is divorced from his wife! How did it become reconciled?
The corners of the young father-in-law's mouth on the opposite side curled, his eyes were approaching, and his words were deep: "Even if it is a harmony, it is natural to return the dowry, and Master Jia will not withhold it, right?" ”
Lan Yayu brought a large amount of dowry to the door, and Mrs. Jia immediately asked her to take care of the house, apparently for her, but actually forced her to use her dowry to support the Jia family. Lan Yayu is so pompous, and when she feels that something is wrong, she has no heirs.
can only bear the expenses of the Jia family, anyway, she has the Hou Mansion as a backer, and Mrs. Lan gives her some good things from time to time.
When he divorced his wife, he was afraid of being affected by the Hou Mansion, second, Lan Yayu couldn't give birth to a son, and third, he coveted Lan Yayu's dowry.
In fact, in order to make Jiafu live a good life over the years, Lan Yayu not only took out the output of the field shop, but also sold some jewelry and jade...... And after taking over Lan Yayu's dowry, Jiafu spent extravagantly, if you want to return it all...... I'm afraid there's less than half of it left.
If you don't take it out, don't even think about it! After Mrs. Jia figured it out, she rolled her eyelids and fainted directly.
Jia Qi also wanted to faint, how could things turn out like this?
