Chapter 200: On the eve of going to Beijing
Chapter 200 On the eve of going to Beijing
(Dear friends, Xiaoxiao is finally going to Jingshi to reunite with her husband.) This time I left Huayin. Xiaoxiao rarely goes back. Jiang Mansion will prosper in Beijing, and Xiao Xuanxuan will also become truly strong...... Hehe, if you are looking forward to it, please give a few tickets...... )
Why is Yuan Tiangang so annoyed? We'll leave it at that. Let's say that after Xiaoxiao came out of the main hall, the words of the Taoist chief echoed in his mind, and he was happy in his heart. actually called the man, let her take out the last piece of silver ingots weighing ten taels on her body, and put it into the merit box without hesitation, attracting a sideways glance from the pilgrims next to her:
This lady "> a lot of money...... For ordinary pilgrims, being able to give dozens of large sums of money is already considered pious and generous. The one who gives it is the kind of person whose family is very wealthy. This lady "> is ten taels of silver ingots, I am afraid that it must be the young grandmother of a rich and noble family......
Xiaoxiao turned a deaf ear to the discussions of others and the whispered protests of the beard, and her husband was able to rise smoothly step by step, which was the greatest comfort to her. As if a ghost was confused, Xiaoxiao at this time was already convinced of Yuan Tiangang's words, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it seemed that it should have been like this.
Put the silver into the merit box, and Xiao Xiao faced the three Qing ancestors erected in the side hall, and bowed sincerely one by one. Finally stand up. Pulling the mustache next to him, he commanded softly:
"Girl, anyway, I'm already happy with this silver, you might as well go and let that Yuan Tianshi calculate it for you......"
The man was still distressed for the ten taels of silver in his heart, and when he heard this, he pouted and said angrily:
"Madam" > is generous, and these ten taels of silver are almost catching up with the expenses of the house for a day. The slave is distressed, her body hurts, her whole body hurts, what kind of strength is it? ”
Xiaoxiao is not angry, and the little money fan is in charge of part of the expenses of the Jiang Mansion. Not only is she slamming herself, but she hates all those who spend money indiscriminately. There was once a servant of the Jiang Mansion who went to the town to buy a tank for fish, because it was in a hurry, and the store happened to have no coarser for sale. Then the personnel were in a hurry, so they purchased a slightly better kind of water tank, which cost an extra sixty yuan. After coming back, he was scolded by the man's hair, and almost let him leave from the Jiangfu roll. In the end, although he changed his mind under a small secret persuasion, he has since fallen into the name of "stingy manager" among the subordinates of Jiangfu......
Seeing Xiaoxiao's appearance, she smiled lightly: "Ask for marriage, anyway, the silver has been given, and it is impossible to come back." Then why don't you go and ask that Yuan Tianshi to calculate your marriage, and see if our man'er is the life of a noble lady or the life of a lonely old man. I've heard that the marriage sign calculated by Yuan Tianshi is very accurate......"
As mentioned earlier, everyone in this era believes in the theory of ghosts and gods. Therefore, for this kind of fortune-telling business. It is also the awe of everybody. Hearing that the Yuan Tianshi in the hall was very accurate in fortune-telling, and thinking that the silver had already been spent anyway or would he not come back, the man was finally moved, and said tentatively to Xiaoxiao:
"Then the slave will go and let the Heavenly Master do the math?"
Xiao Xiao smiled and nodded: "Go quickly, it's too late, that Heavenly Master may call it a day......"
The mustache hurriedly ran to get a number plate, for fear that the Heavenly Master would really call it a day. As soon as the mustache left, Mrs. Li's "> also came out of the main hall, and she and Xiaoxiao received the number plate at the same time, one in front of the other. asked about the marriage of his baby son Li Qin, but the result was not very good. That day, the teacher unraveled the signature, saying that it was a good thing and a lot of grinding! This made Mrs. Li "> very worried in her heart, and comforted herself again and again: fortune telling may not be all accurate. But in his heart, he knew that what this Heavenly Master said was probably really accurate, and his son and the young lady of the Wu family were ">, aren't they going through tribulations at this time......
The two of them chatted outside for a while, and the mustache also came out. Although it is still the usual very serious face, judging from the brisk steps and the smile on her face that cannot be concealed, I am afraid that the marriage sign she asked for is very agreeable. Xiaoxiao laughed and joked a few sentences, which made the beard unable to follow, so he had to dispel the idea of listening to the content of the note, and told everyone to prepare to go down the mountain.
That's when something went wrong. It was getting late, and it would be dark for more than an hour. And this way down the mountain, although it is all downhill, but the mountain road is rugged and very difficult, it takes at least two hours. What's more, they also took the tiger head and two other babies who were more than a month old, and it would be too dangerous to go down the mountain like this......
Xiaoxiao naturally wanted to go down the mountain and go home, but Yao Shan, Mrs. Li's "> and Ma'er all dissuaded her. He said that since it was getting late, he would simply stay in the Taoist temple on the mountain for a night, and then set off down the mountain when the sky was bright tomorrow. Originally, when he went up the mountain, Xiaoxiao also had such thoughts. But at this time, there is that Yuan Tiangang living in the Taoist temple, if he is entangled again, Xiaoxiao really doesn't know how to face it. Therefore, she insisted on wanting to go down the mountain. But as everyone said, it was too dangerous to go down the mountain overnight, and Xiao Xiao couldn't make up his mind. If it were himself, it would be fine, but now there are tiger heads, maids, and balls. If something really happened to a few little babies, how to explain it to your husband?
After struggling like this for a while, motherhood finally prevailed. Even if he is entangled by Yuan Tiangang again, he can't take this risk. After making such a decision, Xiaoxiao asked Cui Qiao to ask for a place to live. Unexpectedly, after Cui Qiao came back after a while, he brought back a sad news: the guest rooms in the Taoist temple were full, and even the firewood room was full of people......
There is no choice but to go down the mountain. But Xiao was worried about the safety of her baby son and daughter, and thought about it. Or asked Yao Shan:
"Yao Shan, how do you camp in the wilderness on weekdays?"
Yao Shan thought for a while: "If there is a condition, set up a tent and light a bonfire." If there are no conditions. I can only light a bonfire and dig a pit......" Seeing the little gaze subconsciously looking at the ground, Yao Shan hurriedly stomped his feet:
"Madam" >, don't look at it, this Huashan is full of hard stones, and you can't dig ...... at all."
Xiao Xin was a little annoyed, if he knew this, he really wouldn't come today. On this trip to the mountain, there were so many problems. But the problem still needs to be solved, and the sooner the decision is made, the better. After thinking about it, he commanded the people again:
"Go down the mountain at once, and set up camp wherever it gets dark. Find a sheltered place and light a fire, it shouldn't be too cold at night......"
When everyone saw that their little idea had been decided, they didn't say anything more, and they all picked up their bags and set off. Yao Shan thought about it, and finally plucked up the courage to say to Xiaodao:
"Miss" >, there is a simple open top on the carriage at the bottom of the mountain, or the subordinates go down the mountain first and bring the tent up the mountain. At night, let a few young masters and young ladies "live in tents > to reduce the invasion of some mountain winds......
Xiaoxiao was overjoyed when he heard this: "It's hard for you to make a trip, and you go down the mountain lightly alone." It's going to be a lot faster, and we're going to catch up a little bit more...... Well, then you can go down the mountain first! ”
Yao Shan nodded, saluted and went down the mountain first. Xiaoxiao, with a kind of guard and maid, slowly descended the mountain behind......
By the time they met again, there was still a third of the way to go. Yao Shan and the guards worked together to set up a tent, so that Xiaoxiao with a tiger head, Yaya, Dandan, and Mrs. Li "> live in, and a group of maids and maids lay next to the tent on the ground. The guards gathered some firewood, lit a bonfire, and ate some dry food. Just dealt with it for one night. After dawn, everyone set off again to descend the mountain......
…… After returning to Jiangfu, Xiaoxiao spent nearly half a month of hard work. Finally, together with Qing'er, the development plan of Jiangjia Farm for the next two years was formulated. The farm, the Jiang Jiayi School, and the Zuixiao Villa have also been formulated separately. The farm is naturally the overall situation of Qing'er; Jiang Jiayi School is the Dr. Xiao, who has the same surname as Xiaoxiao, is in charge; She is in charge of the management of the first phase of Zuixiao Villa and the construction supervision of the second phase, and with her door-picking temperament, this is undoubtedly the best candidate......
After settling these things properly, Xiaoxiao went to Huayin County again. first visited the current Huayin County Order, and then asked him to come forward to help and discuss the redemption of the mansion with the current owner of the Jiang family's ancestral house. Huayin County Ling was flattered, and he was very attentive and thoughtful in his service. In the end, at a price of 900 guan, the ancestral house of the Jiang family, which was sold by Jiang Zhixuan at a low price of 500 guan in order to treat Xiaoxiao's illness, returned to the embrace of Jiang Mansion. Although the current Jiang Mansion doesn't care about this mansion at all, this is Jiang Zhixuan's wish all along. The moment he got the deed, he was as sacred as having completed a glorious and great mission, thinking about how happy the husband should be after he arrived in Beijing and handed over the deed to his husband......
But speaking of her husband, Xiaoxiao has frowned a little these days. After returning from Huashan that day, Xiaoxiao received her husband's first letter, in addition to keeping her safe, greeting her beloved wife and mother-in-law, the letter said that she missed her son and daughter, and that she was ...... Ask for money.
When she left Huayin to go to Beijing, Xiaoxiao gave her husband a total of 5,700 yuan. The husband said in the letter that the 5,000 yuan ticket was handed over to his father for safekeeping, and he was embarrassed to take it back. This is understandable, but the whole 700 silver ingots and big money, the husband actually used all of them to fund those former classmates, which made Xiaoxiao have some opinions.
Of course, Xiaoxiao is not against her husband doing such a good deed. On the contrary, she told her husband to do so. But there is also a limit to helping others, you can't keep nothing for yourself, right? Shaozi has only been in Beijing for more than ten days. It was reduced to the point of reaching out to his father-in-law to ask for money for wine, which is too miserable......
But despite thinking like this, Xiaoxiao still gave her husband another 500 yuan, thinking in her heart that there would be more than a month at most, and she would go to Beijing to reunite with her husband. In the past month or so, even if the husband feasts those classmates every day, 500 should be enough, right? Unless you go to a high-end restaurant like Zuiyue Lou every day, this is obviously impossible. Because Zuiyue Building no longer exists, the new owner is still nursing children in Huayin County......
However, what Xiaoxiao never expected was that it had only been more than 20 days. The husband actually wrote to ask for silver again, and this time it was also 500 yuan. This made Xiaoxiao a little vigilant, and the shadow of the unsuccessful husband in her previous life resurfaced in front of her eyes after nearly four years.
There is a haze in the little heart, and it is definitely not normal for the husband to ask for money so frequently. Fujun was originally a very frugal person on weekdays, even if the economic conditions of Jiangfu had already become rich over the years. Because the husband doesn't have any bad habits, he never gambles, he doesn't bet on ji, even if he doesn't drink much, he just tastes it. Even if the price of goods in Beijing was twice as expensive as that in Huayin County, even if he feasted his classmates and colleagues in the DPRK and China every day, it would be impossible for him to spend 500 guan like flowing water so quickly......
With such worries, Xiaoxiao was a little stunned in Huayin. She didn't worry about anything else, but among the Jingshi, there were a lot of various gambling stalls, and if her husband was obsessed with either of the two, it would be troublesome. I'm afraid that the happiness of the past three or four years will soon disappear. However, in the letter, the husband did not reveal any clues at all, only said that he borrowed it for Brother Qin, so it was impossible for Xiaoxiao to guess some clues between the lines. On the contrary, her husband earnestly instructed her in the letter, asking her to take care of her body, and not to drag down the body that she had managed to raise because her two sons and one daughter worked too hard......
Although there is such a worry in his heart, since the husband has opened his mouth to ask for it, the number is not very large. Xiaoxiao still ordered someone to give her husband 500 yuan again, but this time Xiaoxiao had a heart. asked Qing'er to send a reliable account office on the farm to accompany her, hoping to find out if the husband was really ...... Fallen......
……
Why did Jiang Zhixuan ask for silver so much one after another? Of course, it was because of the renovation and renovation of the Kyoshijiang Mansion. 5,000 guan to buy a house, and the remaining 700 guan, deducting dozens of expenses for himself and his subordinates. Most of the rest bought materials for renovation and renovation, and they didn't even pay for their work. So, when he wrote home for the first time, he asked for 500 kan to pay the wages of the craftsmen. In the next ten days, there were some bits and pieces of materials to be purchased every day, so it didn't take long for 500 yuan to be left again. It's just that my father-in-law is honest, and after so many years, I only saved dozens of private money behind my mother-in-law's back......
Jiang Zhixuan admired it a lot, but at the same time, he wanted to cry without tears, so he had to hit Li Qin with his idea. Unexpectedly, since his father-in-law lifted Li Qin's ban and allowed him to "> communicate with the young lady of the Wu family. Li Qin actually changed his habit of being stingy, all kinds of high-end rouge gouache and brocade hairpins kept sending, and soon lost the hundreds of private money he had saved for more than ten years, and when Jiang Zhixuan found him, he was even cheeky and wanted to borrow money from Jiang Zhixuan......
Coming out of Li Qin's house as if avoiding the plague, Jiang Zhixuan looked up to the sky and sighed: A penny is difficult to defeat a hero, and five hundred yuan is difficult to defeat a champion! The renovation of the new house is nearing completion, but Jiang Zhixuan has no money in his hands. According to the estimation of those craftsmen, it will take about another two or three hundred yuan, and the new Jiangfu mansion with a new look can be delivered.
In addition, a few days ago, Jiang Zhixuan saw a very beautiful set of glass tableware in the West Market, which was very exquisite. He knew that his beloved wife had an almost paranoid fondness for the transparent vessel, so he was bent on buying it and putting it in the bedroom. But the asking price of that set of tableware is 120 yuan, and it is very popular, and the supply of goods from merchants is not much. If I wait a few more days, I'm afraid it will be sold out. Based on such thoughts, Jiang Zhixuan had the cheekiness to borrow money from his father-in-law and Li Qin, but he didn't expect to finally muster up the courage to open his mouth, but it was such a result, which was really sad......
In desperation, I had to write to my beloved wife again for help, asking her to bring another 500 yuan. This time, the reason was to borrow it for Li Qin, saying that Li Qin also spent a lot of money after he went on an errand. If Li Qin knew that he had inexplicably carried this black cauldron, he didn't know if he would find Jiang Zhixuan to work hard......
However, the nearly 7,000 yuan spent is still very worthwhile in Jiang Zhixuan's opinion. Not only did he think so, but even a few days ago, Li Rusong was full of praise after he went to see Jingshi's Jiangfu mansion with him. Because of this, he agreed to help Jiang Zhixuan keep this secret, hoping to surprise his daughter and wife after they "> come to Jingshi.
After being married for so many years, they have lived together in the Zuixiao Villa and Jiangfu designed by Xiao Xiao for so many years. Jiang Zhixuan has long known the colors, furniture, and decoration styles that his beloved wife likes, and he is also very aware of his beloved wife's living habits. The new house of Jingshi, in addition to the main hall and flower hall for receiving guests, is decorated according to the mainstream style at this time. In all the rest of the places, Jiang Zhixuan was decorated according to the style that his beloved wife liked. Especially the grass house in the back garden, he even made people build an independent two-story small attic, which is simply a condensed and condensed version of Huayin Jiang Mansion......
……
In the blink of an eye, it was the beginning of November in the eleventh year of Zhenguan!
The two little baby eggs in Jiangfu have passed the hundredth day, the day of the hundred days. At the insistence of Uncle Jiang and Uncle Jiang, Jiang Mansion held another lively 100-day banquet. On the same day, under the encouragement of some villagers in Zhaojia Village, these villagers worked together to make two real "Qianjia clothes" and gave them to Yaya and Dandan, in order to express the blessings of their neighbors.
For this gift, Xiaoxiao and several elderly members of the Jiang family were very happy. The "Qianjia Clothes" of the tiger head was sewn by the maids of Jiangfu. And the two pieces of Yaya and Dandan, but they are really sewn by hundreds of neighbors, and the meaning and blessing carried in them are too heavy......
After the 100-day banquet, Xiaoxiao began to prepare for the reunion with her husband in Beijing. When my husband went to Beijing, I said that I had almost done everything I wanted to do. The Jiang family's ancestral house has been redeemed, and the person in charge of each venue has also been appointed, and the channels for handing over and auditing various accounts have been clearly explained to everyone.
Everything was ready, Xiaoxiao finally decided to go to Beijing and began to fight for the prosperity of the Jiang family in Beijing......
