Xu Bin snorted and said, "I was fortunate to be a soldier under General Meng Lao before, and I respect him very much." ”

Jiang Chen didn't think much about it, and looked up at the sky with a look of admiration, "You don't know that General Meng Jun is less than twenty years old, he has never lost a battle, and he is invincible with soldiers. ”

Seeing that Xu Bin just smiled faintly, and didn't seem to put Meng Jun, who was less than twenty years old, in his eyes, Jiang Chen simply approached Xu Bin and whispered: "Uncle Xu, don't you know, two days ago, General Meng Jun commanded an army of 100,000 people, and broke the army of the Western Turks, and 100,000 people won 300,000!" ”

Xu Bin was taken aback, since the death of Li Jianmin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, the Western Turks have not surrendered to the Tang Dynasty for decades, turned to Tibet, and fought against the Tang Dynasty, which has always been a big trouble for the imperial court, Meng Dechang died on the way to conquer the Western Turks, hundreds of thousands of troops were almost completely destroyed, and the poor old general Rong Ma has been in a hundred battles all his life, but he was planted in this matter.

"How do you know? But really? Xu Bin didn't believe that such a major achievement, if it was true, I was afraid that it would have been spread all over the capital!

Jiang Chen was anxious, "The father of one of my classmates is from the Ministry of War, and the news is well-informed, but it hasn't come out yet, don't believe Uncle Xu, you wait two days to see." ”

Xu Bin smiled and patted Jiang Chen's shoulder, "Uncle Xu naturally believes in you." Changed the topic again and said: "You are not young, and you are also at the age of marrying and starting a family, think more about how to go in the future." ”

Jiang Chen knew in his heart that Xu Bin was beating him, and said with a smile: "In the future, I will learn to do business with my father, and I will definitely protect my wife in the future, and I will have no worries about food and clothing." ”

Xu Bin nodded with satisfaction, Jiang Chen still has a bit of a juvenile heart, but he is still working hard and enterprising, and if he grows up for another two years, he will definitely be able to take charge on his own, which can be regarded as a good match.

Jin Qing took Jiang Xing to wash the dishes in the stove room, Jin Zhi went door to door to return the borrowed bench, and even the dishes that Jin Qing washed were borrowed from neighbors, and the two chatted while washing, and they didn't feel that they were too lively.

Speaking of which, Jin Qing also knew something from Jiang Xing's mouth that made her laugh, when Tang Gaozu Li Yuan ascended the throne, the world had just been peaceful, after years of chaos, the population had plummeted, and the land was abandoned, in order to encourage childbirth, the imperial court issued a regulation, men who are not married at the age of twenty and women who are not married at the age of fifteen will be fined!

Although this law was abolished after Li Jiancheng ascended the throne, it still formed a custom and passed down, and most women were married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and basically married before the age of nineteen.

Like Jinqing is fifteen years old, her in-law's family has not yet been seen, and it will be difficult to find her in-law's family if it is delayed for another two years, so it is no wonder that Mama is so anxious.

Since she has to get married, and she has no intention of looking for any love, then find someone who is good to her and has a solid family background to live with peace of mind, and she can also help Jinzhi. It's just that she is still faintly uneasy in her heart, as if she is waiting for something, but she doesn't know what to wait for.

Ah Gua brought the half-grown children who were making trouble in the cave room at night, and they were lively for a long time, and only after getting the reward of the big red paper bag did they disperse with a smile.

After all, Jiang Chen skipped his homework and brought his sister over, although he also wanted to make trouble in the cave room at night, but he didn't dare to delay for too long, and he took Jiang Xing home after eating the wedding wine at noon.

After dinner at home, Jiang Chen hesitated and went to his mother's yard.

Mrs. Jiang has been in a very good mood in the past two days, her mother-in-law's temperament has converged a lot since she broke her neck, and she is no longer happy to find her if she has nothing to do, the two children are also quite obedient, and Jiang Chen also goes to study with her master every day.

Seeing her son enter her room, as if she had something to say, Mrs. Jiang sent down the maid who was waiting on the side, looked at her tall and handsome son with a loving face, and said with a smile: "Anyway, what did we Young Master Jiang actually come to me as an old woman?" ”

Jiang Chen moved a small dwarf, sat down in front of Mrs. Jiang, buried his head in Mrs. Jiang's lap, rubbed it coquettishly, and said flatteringly: "The mother is good-looking, she looks like the young daughter-in-law in her twenties, better than the little girl, where is the old woman!" ”

Mrs. Jiang was coaxed by her own son, hugging Jiang Chen to look left and right, how to look at it, how pleasing to the eye, good and sensible, it is not that she has been well educated, she has been strict since she was a child, and she has taught carefully, otherwise only relying on that dead old woman and her husband who only knows how to make abacus, where would Jiang Chen be so good.

Jiang Chen saw that he was happy to coax his mother, and took the opportunity to say, "Mother, my son wants to ask you for something." ”

Mrs. Jiang naturally knew that her son was doing everything to please her son today for a purpose, so she patted her son's hand and said with a smile: "You monkey, I thought you had filial piety today, and you knew that you came to honor your mother!" I didn't expect that I was begging for something, and my mouth was so sweet. ”

Jiang Chen smiled, "Mother, my son has always been very filial to you, but look at it, my son is not young......"

As soon as she heard this, Mrs. Jiang's originally smiling eyes suddenly widened, she sat up straight and asked with the corners of her mouth bent, "Could it be that you have a crush on which girl?" ”

Jiang Chen blushed and nodded, "It's Gu Jinqing who treated grandma." ”

Mrs. Jiang smiled, touched Jiang Chen's head, sat back on the recliner, and quipped: "I look at that girl, she is not beautiful, and it seems that the family has no money, why did she fall into the eyes of our eldest young master?" ”

Jiang Chen was anxious and shouted: "Mother, Jinqing is very good!" You don't know her well, Jiang Xing also likes her, if you know her, you will definitely like her. I, I'll identify her! ”

Mrs. Jiang couldn't cry or laugh, and raised her hand to make a surrender form, "Good, good, good!" I can't argue with you, our Young Master Jiang is the best! You fall in love with others, but they don't necessarily like you! ”

Jiang Chen saw that his mother did not object, and immediately smiled happily: "Mother don't worry, Jinqing is also willing, her grandmother asked me if my family had made a marriage for me today." ”

Seeing his mother looking at him and smiling, Jiang Chen blushed again and shook Mrs. Jiang's sleeve, "Mother, Jinqing is a good girl, she is filial to her mother, and she will honor you and her father in the future." ”

Mrs. Jiang stretched out her hand and touched Jiang Chen's face lovingly, and sighed: "In the blink of an eye, Ah Chen, you are so old, and you have reached the age of starting a family." Since it is the girl you fancie, for the mother, she will have a thick old face and go to the door of other people's houses to explore the meaning of others. ”

Although Mrs. Jiang did not directly say that she would go to Jinqing's house to propose marriage, I think it was also because her mother had always been cautious in doing things. Jiang Chen was very happy, thinking that he would be able to marry Jinqing and marry Jinqing soon, his heart was full of excitement, and he was determined to study in the private school for the past few days, so as not to upset his mother and ruin the affairs of himself and Jinqing.

After Jiang Chen left, the mother-in-law who served Mrs. Jiang came into the house, and she listened to Jiang Chen's words clearly just now.

"Madam, are you really going to propose to the young master?" The mother-in-law asked cautiously.

Mrs. Jiang lay on the recliner with her eyes closed, and sighed for a while: "Mother Huang, you are also a parent, since my son said it, how can I pretend not to know?" I have to think of a way to do both, so I can't let Ah Chen get angry with me. ”

Mother Huang looked aggrieved, "Oh, madam, look at how hard your family is!" The old lady is always picky in the egg! ”

One sentence can be regarded as speaking to Mrs. Jiang's heart, Mrs. Jiang remembered the way the old woman crooked her neck, and her heart was full of happiness, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily rose.

Mother Huang looked at Mrs. Jiang's expression carefully, knowing that she was right, and said with a smile: "This God is fair, good people have good rewards, and bad people will not get a good one when they arrive!" ”

"Just say this in my room, you have to keep your mouth shut outside!" Mrs. Jiang listened to it happily in her heart, and she also knew that it was restrained, and when it reached the ears of Master Jiang, it had to be noisy.

"Madam, don't worry, the old slave doesn't know this bit of proportion!" Huang's mother flattered, now that the old lady has completely lost the ability to be a housekeeper, and the power of the family has fallen into the hands of the lady, those of them who are slaves can also raise their eyebrows.

"It's just, madam, do you really want to go to the Gu Jinqing family in person? What is their identity, what is your identity, don't lower your value! Huang's mother said.

Mrs. Jiang was a little upset when she thought of this, if she didn't go, her son would definitely hate himself in his heart, and if she wanted to go, she really felt that she had lost face in the face of that kind of person, "Can you not go?" I have to go if I don't go, if I don't go, maybe Ah Chen hates me! When he came back, he said that the woman asked for a sky-high dowry, and she was greedy for money, and this could not be done! ”

Mother Huang saw that Mrs. was angry, and hurriedly gave Mrs. a relief, "Madame, don't worry, the young master was just fascinated by that little fox spirit, and after a while, he will naturally know who is really good for him!" ”

Mrs. Jiang took a sip of hot tea under the service of Huang's mother, and sighed: "I hope so." ”

"Speaking of which, it's all to blame for the little fox spirit surnamed Gu, the old slave looked at her long Zhou Zhou Zhengzheng, I didn't expect it to be this kind of person, I actually wanted to hook up with the young master, and the sparrow also wanted to fly on the branches, and I didn't look at what I looked like! The old slave went with his wife, if the broken house was not visible, they would have no face in the capital! Huang's mother patted her chest with a righteous face.

Mrs. Jiang snorted and put the teacup heavily on the table, "If she is an official lady, no matter what her family background is, I will admit it." It's just a bell doctor running around, and he takes himself too seriously! I still have to coax Ah Chen, for fear that my son will be separated from me. ”

"That's right! Our eldest young master is a dragon and phoenix among people, and he will definitely be able to win the top prize in the future examination, and he will be able to match it only if he is a lady from an official family! Huang's mother smiled.

Knowing that her son is studying in general, it is impossible to take the top prize, Huang's mother is just saying good things to herself, Mrs. Jiang still feels very happy in her heart, as if she will soon be able to see her son on the gold list, wearing red silk, riding a high-headed horse to kneel down to thank her.
