Chapter 732: Wishful thinking
Chapter 732: Wishful thinking
The neighbor was startled, hurriedly bent over to pick up the chopsticks, went outside to wash them, and handed them back to Wu's mother again. It's just that Wu's mother didn't answer this time, her blind eyes were stunned, and her face was incredulous. Xiao Ying, Xiao Ying, Xiao Ying...... The girl she rescued from the mass grave with only one breath left? How can it be? How can it be?
Although the son followed the Xiao girl to the capital, it seems that there is still the head of the county government, and even the son of the county order family ran away with him.
But if you want to say how capable Xiao Ying is, Mother Wu doesn't believe it.
The Queen?
"Xiao Ying, Xiao Ying, why is it so familiar to me, Mrs. Wu, is the girl you took in before called Xiao Ying?"
Mother Wu nodded stunned.
"Is the queen lady in the notice the skinny little girl? The notice said that the queen had come to Fuyang Town, and she had also made a living in the county government. It must be, I just looked at the girl who was not ordinary, although her complexion was a little worse, but the demeanor of that line was ...... At the beginning, you didn't look down on others, but they were thin and weak, and they were worried that they wouldn't be able to give birth to grandchildren. Your family Wenjing seems to like that girl a lot......"
Mother Wu only felt dizzy.
She really didn't look down on that Miss Xiao very much.
has been so seriously injured, the whole person looks sick and crooked, such a woman marries into the family, let alone Tian Ding imports. I'm afraid it's just to marry a medicine jar and enter the door.
Mother Wu naturally didn't like it.
Who doesn't want their son to marry a daughter-in-law who is diligent and can do things well.
But that girl would become the queen's mother?
A girl from a wealthy background is not a big problem if she can't do work, and she has her own subordinates to do it.
If she insisted on letting her son marry Xiao Ying at that time...... Wouldn't her son be ...... at this time? The notice said that Xiao Ying was a princess, so her Jing'er was a colt.
The neighbors apparently thought of this layer as well. "What a missed opportunity. What a marriage. If you had asked your family Jing'er to marry that Xiao girl. Now, your family Jing'er is a colt. I heard that the Xiao family attaches great importance to this princess, and there are dozens of cars just for the dowry. And that's not all...... I heard that Xiao Ying's father also gave her 3,000 guards as a dowry. Three thousand guards...... How much do you have to eat that day?
If these 3,000 guards are at your disposal. Just thinking about it, my heart is about to jump out. ”
The neighbor said with envy.
The Zhuang family has no knowledge, and they are not really jealous, and they don't want to embarrass Wu's mother when they say these things, but they feel it.
Mother Wu thought to herself, yes, she knew that the sick and crooked girl had such an identity, and she would let her son marry her no matter what.
Three thousand guards Wu's mother is not uncommon, and her son is soft-natured and cannot lead soldiers.
But there are dozens of cars of dowries and a large mansion full of servants...... missed out on her son, which made Wu's mother hurt her liver very much.
"That's what I said, don't think about it. I think since she is a princess, she naturally wants to marry a prince. The princess and the prince are a good match, although your family Jing'er is a good child, but it is still not suitable to match the princess. ”
“…… I'm her savior. Wu Mu emphasized.
"Even if you saved someone's life, they don't necessarily have to marry your son to repay the favor. I think it's a lot like this now, didn't your family Wenjing follow that princess into Beijing? Now that you are a queen, you will naturally not treat your family quietly, maybe when your son comes back, he will be a big official. ”
Although the neighbor's words were quite acceptable, Wu's mother was a little unlistenable.
She was still thinking about the benefits of her son marrying a princess, but she didn't think that Xiao Ying didn't like Xiao Xiucai at all.
The neighbor packed up the dishes and chopsticks and rushed home to make dinner.
She accepted the money, so she naturally had to take care of Wu's mother properly. Now that there is such a layer, taking care of Wu's mother is becoming more and more conscientious, if Xiaoxiucai returns to her hometown in the future, she will definitely miss her.
The neighbor left, and Wu's mother was the only one in the house again.
In the past half a year, my son sent dozens of taels of silver back from the capital. Wu's mother thought that her son was very capable, and he earned so much silver when he arrived in the capital. The one sent back at one time topped what I earned in the past few years.
She happily hid the silver.
The daughter-in-law who wants to choose a house for her son quickly......
But now she feels that these dozens of taels of silver are simply a slap in her face.
O princess. Xiao Ying turned out to be a princess. Her son had the opportunity to ask a princess to be his daughter-in-law, but he missed it because of her.
She...... Why is she so confused?
Wu's mother felt heartache, and this pain reached its peak after Miao County ordered someone to send a few pieces of silver to Wu's mother.
This undoubtedly proves that the queen mother on the notice is the little girl she saved.
Wu's mother knew that her son liked that girl. She agreed that Xiao Xiucai would follow Xiao Ying, but she also considered that if the two were in love, she would nod her head and let Xiao Xiucai marry Xiao Ying in the future. But...... But...... Wu's mother finally begged her neighbor to accompany her to the county office, planning to ask for a county order to help her deliver a letter.
Miao County Ling warmly received Wu's mother.
After listening to what Wu's mother said, she was a little dumbfounded.
She even said that she had saved a Xiao girl, and now this Xiao girl has become a queen. At the beginning, the girl clearly agreed to marry her son in order to repay her life-saving grace.
Miao County Ling naturally scoffed at this.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see what happened at the beginning.
Xiao Xiucai is gentle and a good bully. But Wu's mother is not easy to provoke, and she didn't know how to save a dying girl with kindness.
The girl has been sick, and Wu's mother has been talking about having no food every day for a while. The implication was naturally that she didn't want to raise an idler, so that the girl's injuries were not healed, so she had to find a way to survive, and finally a girl's family had to join the yamen as a maid who dealt with corpses all day long.
But in the mouth of Wu's mother, it turned out to be a girl who was grateful to her for saving her life, and wanted to help Xiao Xiucai share it together, so she found an errand in Yamen.
As for why she moved out of Wu's house, Wu's mother said that she needed to avoid suspicion before the moon.
Anyway, it's all Xiao Ying's lack of credit. The grace of dripping water is still reciprocated by springs, not to mention the great grace of saving lives.
It seems that if Xiao Ying doesn't marry her son, she is a heinous villain.
Miao County Ling already regretted inviting Mother Wu in. Originally, he thought that Xiao Xiucai was mixed with his own bastard son, and it was understandable for him to take care of Wu's mother for a while.
Who would have thought that this blind woman would be an inconsequential woman.
actually said that the current queen mother was treacherous, threw herself into the arms of other men, and abandoned her son Wu Wenjing from the beginning.
Beginning and abandoning? As soon as these words came out, Miao Xian Ling almost bit off his tongue.
Just like Xiao Xiucai, who looks like a man who is submissive, which girl will like it? Xiao Ying has five dignified highnesses, and against the backdrop of Feng Ge's face, I am afraid that no woman in the world will spare her time to see Xiao Xiucai.
Miao County Decree tried to explain. But Wu's mother didn't listen, so she asked Miao County to help write a letter.
In the letter, Wu's mother asked her son, why did Xiao Ying marry someone else? also let Xiao Xiucai must seek justice.
Master Miao said in his heart, the ignorant are really fearless.
That's the Queen's Mother...... Even before she got married, she was a dignified princess. Your son's small body can have something to do with others?
Master Miao can't persuade him, it's not good to be rude to such a blind woman. He couldn't make sense, so he almost said that Xiaoxiu was not worthy of Miss Xiao. In the eyes of Wu's mother, her son is the best.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with her son marrying a princess at all.
On the contrary, I think that the saints of today do not care about coming first and coming later......
This recognition really made Miao County's head big, and he couldn't explain it, so he secretly asked the little maid to find Mrs. Miao. The arrival of Mrs. Miao finally rescued Miao County.
Mrs. Miao waved her hand and motioned for Miao County to hand over the person to her.
Mother Wu naturally couldn't see this lawsuit, she only knew that the county order had a case to be tried, and the county magistrate's wife would talk to her.
For the woman, Wu's mother also seemed to feel a little more relaxed. "Madam, it's not that my wife is greedy, it's really that I have a life-saving grace to Miss Xiao, and she did say that she wanted to marry my son to repay her life-saving grace." Anyway, that's what Wu's mother thinks in her heart.
Mrs. Miao didn't believe even a single punctuation mark.
Maybe Wu's mother heard it wrong, or maybe Wu's mother was wrong.
Mrs. Miao always knew that Yin Gongzi and Miss Xiao had been very close. In the end, Miss Xiao also went to Taiping Town with Yin Gongzi.
Although she later learned that Gongzi Yin was the Fifth Highness.
But people are happy with each other early in the morning, what's the matter with Xiao Xiucai here?
"It is said that kindness is not reciprocated. When Madame did a good deed, she must not have had the luxury of expecting anything in return? Why does the identity of the girl change now, and the lady feels wronged? "She's a princess, but when she was in my house, she didn't say a word. Since she deliberately concealed it, what's wrong with me settling accounts with her later? "I remember that Miss Xiao did have amnesia due to her injuries, and she didn't remember who she was. How can you tell the truth? If she had known her identity at the time, do you think she would have condescended to come to the county government to do those chores? Just to earn two taels of silver a month? ”
"Even if she forgot it at the beginning, after she gets her identity back, she should repay it or two."
"How to reciprocate? Marry Ling Lang. Madame is too difficult for Miss Xiao. Miss Xiao and His Royal Highness made a love affair as early as when they were in Fuyang Town. What's more, it was His Royal Highness Fifth who really saved Miss Xiao in the first place, does Madam still remember the person who took Miss Xiao in the broken temple and sent her to Langzhong? That is the Fifth Highness. Strictly speaking, Miss Xiao finally married the Fifth Highness, which can be regarded as repaying his life-saving kindness. ”
Mother Wu was stunned.
"But...... The injuries she raised in my house were not with the Fifth Highness. ”
At that time, the two were not familiar with each other, and as the Fifth Highness, they were seriously injured by a little girl. If he can save her, he will look at her differently. It's the same when it comes to Ling Lang. Miss Xiao is a princess, how can she marry Linglang? What's more, Ling Lang is not so good that everyone praises him. Ling Lang now has such a situation, which is already extremely rare.
Don't let too much greed arise in Madame's heart.
It's not yours, and you can't worry about it in your heart.
Sometimes, wealth is not all about blessings. Madame, do you know why Miss Xiao didn't send some silver taels to thank Madame after she found her identity? It's not that Miss Xiao doesn't want to send it, but she can't send it. If the neighbors know that Mrs. has hidden a pen of money, ask Mrs., has anyone taken risks for this? I am afraid that the safety of Madame cannot be guaranteed. That's why Miss Xiao didn't give silver treasures.
Miss Xiao is a kind-hearted person.
Her reward is ...... Fuyang Town was exempted from paying taxes for three years. The people of Taiping County are the most sad. It's not because we're lazy, it's that we're unlucky, we have a limited amount of land to cultivate, and it's not fertile.
So life goes by tightly.
The lady has practiced such a careful and budgeting ability. Now the Holy Decree exempts the people of Taiping County from paying taxes for three years. We, the people of Taiping County, can finally recuperate. Three years from now, life will be twice as good as it is now.
So Miss Xiao is a grateful person. She did not repay her wife's family, but repaid her kindness to the people of the entire Taiping County. ”
Mrs. Miao's words were emotional.
Miao County's order just received the paperwork.
Because the new emperor ascended the throne and granted amnesty to the world, and because Taiping County is the fief of His Royal Highness today, he was extra generous and exempted from three years of conscription.
This is a great joy, so Miao County Ling happily received Wu's mother, thinking that Wu's mother would be happy to know that the girl she had saved was now a queen.
Master Miao originally wanted to imagine the future with Mother Wu, but didn't want Mother Wu to have another thought.
Mrs. Miao also could not guarantee whether she would persuade Wu's mother.
Do your best. After all, she is a country woman, and she only sees the good for herself.
I don't want to think about how Xiao Ying's identity can marry a submissive little showman?
What a fool's dream. Mrs. Miao is not easy to say clearly, so she can only know the righteousness like this.
"You mean, Miss Xiao doesn't give money for my good?"
"yes. If you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves. The lady guards the house alone, and the silver will only invite disaster. ”
Mother Wu felt that Mrs. Miao was simply standing and talking without backache. If you don't give money, it's just for her good. If you really want to repay the favor and really do good for her, you will send more silver. She also bought a new house for her son. can also beg for a beautiful daughter-in-law for her son...... "But I still think she is not trustworthy." "Mrs. Miao is also a little angry." Perhaps, since Madame is stubborn, I will write a letter for Madame to make Lang. Whatever Madame wants to say, I will write for Madame. Mrs. Miao thought to herself, since she had a good life, she wanted to toss, so she let Wu's mother toss.
She wanted to see if Wu's mother had any regrets.
Mother Wu couldn't hear the coldness, so she nodded with a smile.
She chattered for a long time, to the effect that Xiao Xiucai was so stupid, and the daughter-in-law who got it flew away.
Mrs. Miao pouted as she wrote.
Her own son is much more talented and handsome than Xiaoxiu, and she doesn't dare to be delusional.
Mother Wu really dared to think about it. In the letter, Xiao Xiucai must ask for an explanation. Mrs. Miao wrote truthfully, read it to Wu's mother again, and sealed her mouth after confirming that it was wrong, and handed it over to the servants who traveled back and forth to the capital.
Seeing off Mother Wu, Mrs. Miao breathed a sigh of relief.
