Chapter 128: The Shaw Family (2)
Jinu was secretly observing her, and when she saw her gloomy expression, she thought that she was unhappy that Caitang was so close to herself, so she hurriedly pushed her away and whispered: "You stay out of the way, don't let your girl misunderstand us." β
Cai Tang was very unhappy, and deliberately angry with him: "What is the misunderstanding? How could there have been you in the eyes of a girl? β
Jinu was really angry by her, and said angrily: "You little maid, why are you so indiscriminate? β
Cai Tang had never been scolded by him like this, and she couldn't help but feel very aggrieved, she was naturally low in front of Xie Yan, but Jinu was never a master in her heart, just a handsome little boy of the same age as herself, but at this time, she wanted to talk to herself about her status and inferiority.
She couldn't bear it for a while, so she also said angrily: "I am that lowly servant, since you are reluctant to talk to me, I will tell you plainly, our girl must marry my master, not to mention that the two are in love, that is, the status of my master, compared with you, is simply a heaven and an earth, what do you want to say to me, you first see if you are worthy of our girl!" What qualifications do you have to ask your family to propose? What do you fight with my master? You are the only one who never distinguishes between dignity and inferiority! β
The slave was already a little drunk, and she was told the main thing, and she was angry for a while, and she was annoyed that she didn't choose what to say, so she slapped her hard.
The crisp slapping was very loud, and the people who were chatting and eating and drinking were all stunned, looking at the two of them in a daze.
Hagi Niang also came back to her senses from her thoughts, and saw that Caitang had been slapped hard by the slave and half of her cheeks were red, her eyes were shining with tears, and she was not convinced and had to fight with him, so she hurriedly persuaded: "If you have something to say, Jinnu, did you go to the army and learn a skill and came back to bully weak women?" The man who beats the woman is the most embarrassed, why don't you apologize to your sister Tang'er soon? β
The slave was just on the top at the time, and he was so angry that he started beating people without thinking, of course, because he was young and vigorous, and he knew that he was indeed a loss, he just woke up with some hazy drinking, and remembered Caitang's various affection and concern for himself on weekdays, he was very guilty, and apologized to Caitang again and again: "It's really mine, no matter what my sister says, I shouldn't beat people, and I ask Sister Tang'er to forgive." β
Cai Tang was angry, and said angrily: "Who is your sister Tang'er, just now someone said that I am the servant who does not distinguish between dignity and inferiority." β
The slave said embarrassedly: "It was my impulse that annoyed my sister, or maybe my sister would slap me too?" β
As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed, just as the two of them had an awkward quarrel, and they both persuaded that there was no need to worry too much about some trivial things.
Cai Tang was angry, and the slave knew that he was at a loss, so he tried very hard to coax her a few words, but he didn't see her laughing.
After the banquet, the maids took Zang Xi back to rest, and the slaves and Caitang didn't know where to go to whisper, but Wang Yi didn't go back, standing beside Hagi Niang and whispered with concern: "Guangling's trip seems to be quite smooth, why are you still worried?" β
Are you so obvious?
Hagi Niang was very depressed, but reluctantly smiled and said: "It's just a private matter, when I was away, thanks to you for taking care of my brother, I heard that it was because of your dissuasion that he couldn't go to Liyang to find me, and I need to give you a credit for this matter." The tone is very playful, but it is difficult to hide the melancholy mood.
Wang Yi said: "Girl, I will definitely do what I promised you, but now that you have returned, I also want to say goodbye." General Xie Xuan's army has been stationed on the south bank of the Yellow River, and the recovery of the Central Plains is just around the corner. β
Her own return is only temporary, the current situation of the Xie family is precarious, Sima Daozi is eyeing the tiger, even Yin Zhongkan, the assassin of Jingzhou, dares to oppose the Xie family, she must not let the Xie family fall to the point where the wall falls down and everyone pushes her, she must help Xie Yan, she already knows part of the history, and she will not make wrong decisions.
She thought for a while and asked, "If you take Brother Xi to join the army, would it be good?" β
Wang Yi didn't expect that he would have to go to the army as a nanny, so he couldn't help but be startled, and shook his hand again and again: "How can this be done?" Brother Xi is still young, and there are many dangers in the army, so if you can't do it, you can't do it. β
Zang Xi is only two years younger than himself, and he is a little older than the slave, why can't he go if the slave can't go?
Hey, why does the slave always call him "Brother Xi"? Pretend you don't know, awkward kid.
She said step by step: "You also know that I have a lot of connections with the Xie family, and Xie Xuan, the commander of the Beifu Army, is exactly ...... If you succeed, please take my brother to the army and try to protect him as much as possible, what do you think? β
Wang Yi is a very capable person, and capable people are generally ambitious, these words hit his heart, he groaned for a while, and replied, "Wait until I think about it." β
Hagi Niang knew that her words had an effect, and gently complimented him a few words, so she went back to the room with peace of mind.
In fact, at this time, the personnel pattern in the Beifu army has undergone some small changes, Liu Gaozhi, who was originally only born in the army, that is, the "big brother Liu" in the mouth of the slave, because he can fight well, at this time he is already the official worship of General Yingyang and the minister of Guangling, leading troops to garrison Guangling. This low-level general, who was previously unknown, was promoted because of his outstanding military achievements, and his battle-hardened sergeants have become a backbone of the Beifu soldiers. Even in front of Xie Xuan, he is one of the best people who can speak.
In the Beifu soldiers, there are not many brave and good fighters, but there are not many people like Liu Gaozhi who stand out in the humble and become famous in one fell swoop, in addition to luck and opportunities, Liu Gaozhi's own affinity, excellent political skills are also very important reasons.
He is not only very close to his generals, but also really willing to promote capable people, so there are many people who are willing to serve him, among which there are really many people of insight and brave and good military attachΓ©s, Guangling army can be said to be able to produce many people, strict and efficient management of the army, compared with the garrisons in other places to be a little more disciplined.
If Wang Yi went to vote for Liu Gaozhi at this time, he would also have a good chance to get ahead, but he didn't know it, and he was entangled with it.
And this time, Haginiang returned to Beijing, a very important reason is to meet her "future mother-in-law", the stepmother Xiao who helped the slave to come to the door to propose.
It's just that people can't come, so I can't rush up to see her, Hagi Niang is very melancholy.
The life experience of the slave is also very tortuous, when he was born, he died of his mother Zhao, and his father Liu Qiao was very disgusted with him because his son killed his beloved wife, causing him to have no one to support. In the end, his aunt Zhao couldn't stand it anymore, so she took him back to her home and raised him with her son Liu Huaijing.
And when he finally grew up smoothly and could take care of himself, his father Liu Qiao continued to have a stepmother Xiao who was not a few years older than him, and this Xiao was also very competitive, and gave birth to a younger brother when he entered the door, so he won Liu Qiao's favor.
