Chapter 135: Chapter 3 of the Covenant
Chapter 135 Chapter 3
"Mrs. Qiyu, the matter has been completed, and the distinguished guests have been properly delivered to the dock."
Standing side by side in the breeze and rain, bowed down and saluted.
"Well, okay, you guys did a good job this time, go down and rest."
Wang Qifang nodded with satisfaction and said to them with a smile.
Qingfeng and the two agreed, and waved their hands again and retreated.
"Qi Niang, is this okay? Once the treasure box falls into the sea, it will be difficult to find it again."
Wang Jinyu sat on the top, frowned slightly, rubbed his thumb and index finger lightly on his chin, and said with a pity when he thought that the treasure box would disappear like this.
"Hehe, if you can't find it, you can't find it," Wang Qifang smiled faintly, and said indifferently, "There are no treasure maps in the left and right boxes, so it's better to destroy them in front of everyone than to leave them in my hands and cause trouble." I believe that it will not be long before everyone will know the news, and by then, there will be no one here to harass me. ”
Just kidding, how could you not find it?
The treasure box just fell into the sea, and it was not burned to the ground, so there was no reason why it couldn't be recovered.
Just like the little girl often shows off, the sea is its world, and it is said that such a large jewelry box, even if the golden beads fall into the sea, it can also be found by the apprentices.
Well, I guess by this time, the sea snakes or turtles swimming in the sea have already found the treasure box.
"Alas, I can only think like this," Wang Jinyu sighed and said, "I think that the two treasure boxes in my grandmother's hand at the beginning, one was given to my mother and the other was given to my aunt, but now my mother's is lost, and my aunt's one is almost impossible to keep." ”
The secret of the Fu Treasure Box is gradually being discovered by the world, and those who own the treasure box will also be calculated by some people with ulterior motives.
Now it's just some wealthy nobles who know about the treasure box, and once one day it knows, a holy decree will come down, and the treasure box can't be kept.
Wang Jinyu thought about it this and had some understanding of Wang Qifang's behavior of designing and losing the treasure box. After understanding, he began to worry about the gentle and kind aunt again.
Alas, my uncle is a tough man, he would rather bend than bend, if there is a conflict with the nobles because of the treasure box, it is really a disaster.
"Brother, have you seen that box, auntie?"
Speaking of this aunt who has never met, Wang Qifang couldn't help but be a little curious.
Unlike her mother, the aunt who is the fourth in the family, she did not marry a nobleman with five surnames, but married a small family with a little-known name, this family is very low-key, the head of the family has been in business for nearly a hundred years but does not enter the Confucian business association, and the children read poetry and books but do not participate in the imperial examination, so it has been passed down in the Great Zhou for more than 200 years.
As for my aunt, since she married into this family, she has rarely contacted her relatives, and Wang Qifang has never seen her. Rao is eldest brother has a wide range of friends, and he may not be familiar with this aunt, right?
"Yes," to Wang Qifang's surprise, Wang Jinyu was no stranger to this aunt, and he said slowly, "After knowing the secret of the Fu Treasure Box, I first went to look for my mother's one, but I searched for several years and found no whereabouts.
Later, I went to visit my aunt, who was very nice and kind to me, and lent me the treasure box on the spot, alas, I consulted it for more than a month, and did not find the treasure map, so I returned the box. ”
"Oh, and what's going on?"
Wang Qifang paused, and then said with a smile, "Since my aunt is very good, we are not far from my uncle's house, why don't we take the time to ask her old man to say goodbye, how about it?" ”
"Little sister, do you mean-" Wang Jinyu didn't react at first, but then she saw a deep meaning flashing in Wang Qifang's eyes, slapped her head, and suddenly said, "Oh, why didn't I think of it, there is a mezzanine in your box, and there may be one in my aunt's box." Yes, yes, little sister, you're right, I'll write to my uncle to see if my aunt is at home. ”
"Well, I'm going with my brother, I've heard my third uncle say that my mother looks very similar to my aunt, and I, I also want to meet my aunt."
"Okay, let's go together," Thinking that her sister had been saved by her mother after she was born, and Qi Niang had never seen her biological mother when she was so old, Wang Jinyu felt a little bitter in her heart, and said with a forced smile, "Speaking of which, except for the two uncles, my aunt is our closest relative." ”
As for the people of the Qingyuan Wang family, they were not in Wang Jinyu's consideration at all. As for those cold-blooded and selfish people, let alone close, Wang Jinyu doesn't hate them, he is broad-minded.
However, when it comes to these people, there is something that has to be done, after a moment of silence, Wang Jinyu organized the wording and said, "By the way, you have a relationship with Li Jingtian, we have to send a letter to my father." Although this matter was done by his uncle, after all, he was still an elder of a foreign family, and it stands to reason that his father's opinion should also be listened to in this matter. ”
"Father?"
Wang Qifang snorted in her heart, and said coldly, "Brother, do you still need to bother your father for such a trivial matter?" ”
To be honest, Wang Qifang has half a good impression of this titular father.
Thinking about the past, what kind of abuse she had become by the Zheng family as a daughter, the eldest daughter of the dignified concubine was so badly abused that she was not even as good as the girl in the family, and when she got married, the Zheng family embezzled so much of her dowry, but her father didn't care at all.
Later, when he married into the capital, Master Wang implemented the phrase 'the water spilled by the married daughter' very thoroughly.
In addition to wanting his son-in-law to help, he also remembered that he had a daughter who married the Zhao family of the Confucian Business Association. At other times, it is estimated that Master Wang has long forgotten the biological daughter named Qifang.
"Qi Niang, I know you have a grudge against your father, but, no matter what, he is our father, and we must be filial and respect him."
Even if he is very dissatisfied with what his father did, but filial piety is the first of all kinds, Wang Jinyu can't have the slightest disrespect for his father and mother.
Otherwise, a disobedient hat will fall off, and he will not die, but his reputation will be ruined.
Wang Jinyu sighed slightly and said, "I have already written to tell my father about your separation." Originally, you should have taken Yuan Niang and them to visit your father, and then stayed at your mother's house for two days. Fortunately, my father said in his reply that the third brother is going to marry a wife these days, and the family is busy, so it will be okay if you go back or not. ”
"Third brother? The third young master of the Zheng family? ”
Wang Qifang was stunned, there were very few memories of the Qingyuan Wang family left by the deity, like the story of the third young master of Qingyuan Wang's talent and ancestor, which she heard later.
Her third brother Wang Jinjue is not a simple character, she can read thousands of words at the age of three, memorize Tang poems at the age of five, read four books and five classics at the age of nine, and became a talent at the age of twelve.
If it weren't for the patriarch's pressure, the eldest brother's family would recommend the quota, and there would be a good chance that it would fall on Wang Jinjue's head.
"Well, it's him, his father has set him a family affair, and the female family is the branch of the Lu family in Qingyuan, and the third brother is also a good match." Regarding Wang Jinjue, Wang Jinyu didn't want to say more, paused, and still pulled the topic back to Wang Qifang, "Although the family is busy with happy events, we still have to tell my father and mother about your affairs." In this way, I will ask my uncle to write a letter to my father later, and then you will also write a letter asking for peace, and by the way, I will tell my father about Li Jingtian, so as to save my 'mother' from picking trouble in the future. ”
"Okay, I got it"
Although she is very reluctant, Wang Qifang still understands the stakes. In ancient times, people attached great importance to filial piety, and there were only parents who sued their children for disobedience, but there was no reason for children to complain about their father's injustice and stepmother's unkindness.
Stepmother, that's also a mother.
The brother and sister discussed for a long time, and they did not separate until lunchtime.
After taking the children to lunch and taking a nap with them for a while, Wang Qifang put the treasure box sent back by the little girl back into the space again, and then began to get down to business - prepare the luggage.
"Cousin, hehe, it's so good, I can call you sister-in-law in a few months," Li Jingniang sat on the clinical kang, holding the warm hot tea in her hand, and looked at Wang Qifang with a smile as she was busy sorting out things, and saw that she was a little busy, so she asked puzzledly, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing in such a hurry to go to Liaodong, I heard the eldest brother say, it is cold there in winter." It's October now, and it's about to be winter, and you still want to spend the winter on the road with your children. ”
"What sister-in-law, don't shout," Wang Qifang was a little embarrassed by Li Jingniang's teasing, glanced at her, and said, "I don't want to, but time waits for no one, and the land over there must be planted with grain earlier." ”
Besides, her destination is Liaodong, but she didn't say what route to take or when she must arrive.
Well, she thought about it, and while she was still free, she was going to take the children around.
In winter, just go all the way south to enjoy the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, and by the way, go to the South China Sea for a stroll, maybe she can find a few islands.
"Oh, where are people shouting, hehe, eldest brother is so good, I have long thought about how good it would be if you could be my sister-in-law, but I didn't expect it to be true," Li Jingniang saw that Wang Qifang was a little shy, and smiled even more cheerfully, she leaned on the pillow and said, "Sister-in-law, I didn't say it, you don't have a lot of land in Liaodong, just hand it over to the eldest brother together, anyway, you will soon be a family, what else do you and I have." ”
"Huh? Give it to Li Jingtian? ”
Well, it's not impossible, originally the development of Liaodong was her idea for the Chivalry League, and now Li Jingtian has acquired a large area of land in Liaodong and established a branch of the Chivalry League, and the people and horses are also being equipped to help her take care of some land, which is by the way.
However, this property must be clearly stated.
Wait, that's right, she still has to talk to Li Jingtian about some things, in her previous life, she had pre-marital property registration when she got married, and now she also has to give Li Jingtian three chapters of the law.
P: Eh, I'm out temporarily, it's late for the update, forgive me, dear ones
