Chapter 593: Your Guest Arrives
With Amber coming forward to convince General Guo Jia, things became simpler.
Cui went to the General's Mansion and said that the General would no longer mention the matter of living in the General's Mansion after becoming a parent. Whether the Zhu family still has a mustard in his heart, Xu Wenlan didn't know, anyway, he immediately handed over the gift list to the Cui family and asked her to go to the general's mansion to give the bride price.
After the bride price, there was basically nothing too big before the marriage, and the Zhu family was ready to go back to Heishui and wait for the regular future, but the Cui family came to pass the word, saying that General Guo Jia invited the Zhu family to the mansion for dinner.
It is said that the formal dinner between the two parties is to wait for the two parties to sit together for a meal and recognize each other's relatives. But it's not uncommon to see your in-laws in advance like now.
Because there was no hostess in the General's Mansion, the Zhu family thought that they would have to be entertained by Mrs. Yan as the host for dinner today, but they didn't expect General Guo Jia to personally invite them to the banquet.
The only female elders at the banquet were General Guo Jia and Mrs. Wanyan, not to mention the two concubines of the general, they didn't even have the opportunity to wait at the table, but Amber, who shouldn't have attended, was there.
At the banquet, General Guo Jia spoke very politely, and repeatedly said that he was very fond of Bai Shengwu, and also said that the Zhu family had raised a good son. He also said that since Bai Shengwu wanted to make any achievements, and the two children wanted to go back to Heishui to live, then transfer Bai Shengwu's position and go to Heishui Racecourse to be a leader.
Bai Shengwu obviously knew the news for the first time, and after hearing it, he was overjoyed, and directly thanked General Guo Jia, Amber looked at it with joy, glanced at Bai Shengwu coquettishly, and said with a smile: "Who else will my father help if he doesn't help you?" β
Zhu was a little confused, and he didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing. I wonder if it's true, because she insisted on not letting her son stay in the General's Mansion, which ruined her son's future.
I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night when I went back, so I pulled Xu Wenlan and muttered: "You said, I used to be in the military camp in Fucheng, but now I am suddenly transferred to Heishui, isn't that a demotion?" β
Xu Wenlan didn't know either, but she was still relieved: "Mother, don't think about it, aren't you very happy to see my brother hearing the news at the banquet?" It can be seen that the transfer is also a good thing, besides, this time the second brother can go home to live, you can see it every day, aren't you happy? β
"Happy is happy, but I ...... in my heart" Zhu sighed, still depressed.
Or the next day, Bai Shengwu came to see him off, and when he saw that Zhu was worried, he smiled and said, "Why can't my mother think about it?" I am now in the Fucheng military camp, but although I am a captain, I am not a commander, and I have no formal position, but I am just a name, but when I go to the Heishui Horse Farm, the entire horse farm is under my command, with nearly 1,000 soldiers and thousands of acres of grassland, which can be regarded as an excellent position. If you do well, you can be promoted. Don't worry, the general will not belittle me to go to Blackwater because he is angry, there is amber, he has to take care of it no matter how annoyed he is-your son is a mouse, and that is also a mouse that accompanies the jade bottle! β
"Nonsense!" Zhu glared at him unhappily and helped him straighten his clothes: "My son is a hero who stands up to the sky, how can he be a mouse?" Son, our family can't help you and your brother, your future can only be earned by yourself......" Wiping the corners of his eyes, Zhu couldn't say any more, just touched Bai Shengwu's face, and turned around and got into the car.
Xu Wenlan smiled at Bai Shengwu, feeling that she had nothing to advise, so she waved her hand: "Second brother, we are waiting for you in Heishui." β
This is a month.
Bai Shengwu took over the Heishui Racecourse, and General Guo Jia also went to Heishui with him.
This is very supportive, even if there are more soldiers in the racecourse, seeing that Bai Shengwu, a young captain, was actually sent by General Guo Jia personally, he didn't dare to come again.
General Guo Jia came this time, just to meet his in-laws.
Suddenly welcomed General Guo Jia to the door, and the Bai family was quite flattered.
It is said that this will be a family, for example, the man takes the initiative to go to the woman's family, how can there ever be a woman's family who takes the initiative, not to mention the identity of General Guo Jia - outside the pass, in addition to General Ningguta, General Guo Jia can be regarded as one of the first few military attachΓ©s. is high and powerful, but condescends to be so noble, how can the Bai family not be surprised.
Old Man Bai's voice was trembling at that time, his body was trembling, and he was so excited that he almost didn't kneel.
Fortunately, Bai Shengwu helped him, and the old man didn't kneel.
Bai Yingkui has seen the world over the years, but when he suddenly saw the general's in-laws, he didn't suppress his excitement, he arched his hands, and wanted to bow deeply.
Fortunately, General Guo Jia really didn't plan to put up a fight, everyone came, naturally he wanted to get married, and he was ten times more approachable than usual.
Seeing that Bai Yingkui wanted to give a deep salute, he immediately stepped forward and held Bai Yingkui with one hand.
"Father-in-law, don't be polite. Today, General Ben - No, I'm here to meet my in-laws for a while, not to work. He turned to Zhu, who was much calmer than others because it was not the first time to see him, and said with a smile: "Mother-in-law, please arrange for me, I will wash up and change into this military uniform-let's still see each other like ordinary people." β
Although General Guo Jia came suddenly, the Bai family is not like before now, so naturally there will not even be a place for guests to stay.
The Zhu family immediately greeted the Qin family and Wu Yunong, and hurriedly cleaned up a side room. During this period, the old man repeatedly said that the wing room was too aggrieved by the general, and he wanted the general to live in the main room, and also said that he would let his room out.
The general naturally refused, Zhu pursed his lips, and only asked the old man, "Can you still live in that room?" Who wants to live in that smell? β
Now the old man Bai is in good health, not like before, but in the end, when he is old, he is taken care of, and he is often washed and replaced, but there is still a smell that can't be removed. Even if he lives in the best main house now, the Zhu family will not let the guests live.
It's just that the general's room is easy to arrange, but the pro-military camp he brought is not easy to arrange, although it is only a team of 100 people, they can only let them camp outside on their own.
Although they did not dare to approach the barracks, there were a lot of people watching from the periphery, especially those children, who were young and did not know to be afraid, and they were all looking around as if they were going into the city to see the jumping officers during the New Year.
The general changed into his regular clothes, and when he came out again, Zhu had already arranged a table of meals, and also sent people to the county to inform Bai Shengwen and Xu Wenlan.
"Home-cooked meals, not as good as the General's Mansion, my father-in-law also invited Haihan." Zhu really treated him like an ordinary person as General Guo Jia wished.
Old Man Bai kept trembling and said that it was too simple, neglected the guests, and robbed Zhu of a few words.
In front of the distinguished guests, Zhu naturally did not return the favor, but just smiled and let the guests go.
General Guo Jia also behaved very casually, laughing and laughing with the three ancestors and grandchildren of the Bai family, and after the meal, he asked Bai Shengwu to take him around the backer.
However, the ordinary rural scene, he saw it with relish, and praised it for its style.
