Chapter 217: Boxing
Since the couple had made up their minds, they were single-mindedly thinking about setting up their own doors.
"Do you know what the Hongjiang Zhao family has been like over the years?" Fu Tingyun muttered, "As the saying goes, the poor have no neighbors in the downtown area, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains. Since the father-in-law and mother-in-law have the opportunity to posthumously seal it, this is also an honor for the Zhao family. If the children of the Zhao family have a prominent career, it is better to say that everyone is proud of their identity, and we are resolute, and they are not easy to do very ugly. If there is no official among the children of the Zhao family, you will have to move the grave at that time, but I am afraid that there will be some calculations. It is better to ask Mr. Lu to ask Mr. Feng Shui to choose a piece of feng shui treasure land in Chang'an, and buy a few hundred acres of land as a sacrificial field, in case you can't buy so much land at a time, we will take out the more than 400 acres of land in Xihuai Village as a sacrificial field, and always prepare these trivial things. Once the holy decree came down, we quickly cut through the mess, worshiped the father-in-law and mother-in-law and went to the temple to ask someone to do the dojo, and when the grave was raised, the Zhao family realized that we were going to set up our own ancestral hall, and we were all ready here, and they just stopped it and did not hinder the father-in-law and mother-in-law from moving the grave. ”
Moving the grave is a major event, not only to invite Mr. Feng Shui to see the auspicious time and auspicious day in advance, but also to invite Taoist priests and monks to do water and land dojos, and Zhao Ling, as a filial son, also presides over the ceremony of moving the grave. If Zhao Ling wants to reason with those people in Hongjiang, the grave stems and inscriptions in Chang'an County are ready, and the coffins of Zhao Ling's parents can go first, as long as he can rush back when the coffins arrive in Chang'an County.
Zhao Ling bowed his head: "You and I went together." He also said, "~ Back then, they bullied my orphans and widows, most of them because no one was promoted in the family, but my father relied on the imperial examination to become an official, and the family business was flourishing.
"Think about it, such a person, when they see others rich and rich, they don't think about how to urge their children to go up, and then they are worried about how to make money and dominate the industry, even if they have talented and intelligent children, they are afraid that they will also be taught crookedly, how can they produce talents? In the past few years, the Zhao family has only spent three or four talents on the side, but Yan has not even passed the children's test. However, the business is getting better and better, and now he is the richest man in Hongjiang. ”
Fu Tingyun smiled bitterly and said, "What are the plans of the Ninth Master?" ”
"I was thinking of going back to Hongjiang to fight with the Zhao family, why don't I want the Zhao family to taste the taste I tasted back then." Zhao Ling said, "It's just that at that time I was in the dark, and the Zhao family was in the light, and there were many ways to make the Zhao family suffer." Now it's me in the light, and they're in the dark, and it's not good to do what they planned. In addition, the Zhao family also had some scruples about his mother's affairs, and it was not good for the people of the Zhao family to ask for an explanation with great fanfare, otherwise he would end up in a situation where there were no three hundred taels of silver here, which would ruin his mother's reputation. I thought that this matter would only be left when I went back and saw the patriarch to see how to behave. ”
Fu Tingyun thought of the entanglement between himself and his father, and didn't want Zhao Ling to put his energy and feelings on the Zhao family in vain, so he came up with an idea: "Why don't you come back after moving the grave of your father-in-law and mother-in-law, whether they admit it or not, you tell the story of that year and let Da judge it first?" As for how to settle accounts with the people of the Zhao family, it is still according to the original plan, "It's just to entrust this matter to Ye San's shopkeeper...... Ye San's shopkeeper and the Zhao family have nothing to do with it, and he is a person in the business field, with a lot of knowledge, a lot of ideas, and more connections to help him do this. If it is found out by the Zhao family, it will be better to let them know what the cause of planting is? ”
Zhao Ling said with a smile: "It's too early to say all this, let's finish the matter of the tomb mat and the sacrificial field first." ”
While the two were talking, they came in and said, "He Xiulin and Lord He are visiting!" ”
Fu Tingyun was a little surprised.
Zhao Lingsi smiled: "This He Xiulin is too polite!" It's just a matter of raising his hand, but he has to see me. ”
Fu Tingyun knew that He Xiulin had asked Zhao Ling to help him win over the commander of Yulinwei last time, and said with some curiosity: "That matter is done?" ”
Zhao Ling nodded: "It's been done a long time ago." However, He Xiulin is a caring person, and after he returned to Yulin after he came to Kyoto this time to make some connections, he may not have such an opportunity! ”
If you want to sit firmly, you can't do it without a strong backup in Kyoto.
Fu Tingyun can quite understand He Xiulin, helped Zhao Ling change his clothes and sent him out, she called Yuwei to calculate the Mid-Autumn Festival gift: "...,—, Asen is about to get engaged to the eldest lady of the Wang family, you remember to help Asen prepare a gift for him to send to the Wang family."
Rain smiled as it should be.
Chen Shi came to worship.
These days, Fu Tingyun is busy with Asen's family affairs, and when he heard this, he immediately invited Chen Shishi to the inner room to talk.
Chen Shishi took a sip of tea after he was born, and then said straight to the point: "Mrs. Wang asked me to ask, can I get Xiaoding before the end of July?" ”
Fu Tingyun was slightly stunned: "What's wrong?" ”
Before, the two families agreed to book the family affairs before Zhao Ling left Beijing.
But Zhao Ling didn't leave Beijing until September.
Chen Shishi didn't make a sound, and looked left and right.
Seeing this, Yuwei took all the servants around her down and helped them cover the couch fan.
Chen Shishi leaned over and Fu Tingyun and said: "You also know, Lord Wang was preparing to let his nephew get into the family, but the nephew still met five or six years ago, and now it's just a matter of hearing about the promise, and it's a matter of his daughter's life, although he has plans to get married, how can he see me?" After listening to the sound, I used the excuse of visiting relatives in Kyoto to prepare to come to Kyoto for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Now that the Wang family has promised your second master's family business, seeing that the other side is about to enter Beijing again, I want to book this family business as soon as possible, and when the people over there come, seeing that the eldest lady of the Wang family has been engaged, I naturally know that this matter is not possible. If you ask, you just say that you have such a plan, and you can see that your second master thinks that your second master is more suitable......"
Fu Tingyun sweated when she heard this: "How can this be?" I'm just talking over there...... If that family gets angry, won't they hate our family? ”
Chen Shishi laughed: "You don't know, Mrs. Wang didn't want to recruit Lord Wang's nephew in the first place, saying that the three-year-old looks old, and the child has been a bully and afraid of evil since he was a child, but Mrs. Wang gave birth to two daughters, and she is ashamed of the Wang family, and secondly, there is no suitable candidate, so she can't come up with an idea." Otherwise, this family affair has already been decided, and we still have to wait for your family to be Asen? ”
Fu Tingyun thought about it and it made sense: "I was also a little strange at the time, why didn't I decide on it for so long?" Helping Ah Sen to ask for a marriage is just a dead horse as a live horse doctor! ”
Chen Shishi couldn't stop laughing when he heard this.
Pearl came in: "Mrs., Mrs. Wu is here to send the Mid-Autumn Festival New Year's gift!" ”
"It's too early, isn't it?" Fu Tingyun was stunned. asked, "Is it Wu Wu who came in person?" ”
Pearls should be "yes".
Fu Tingyun and Chen Shishi looked at each other.
Chen Shishi smiled and said, "I'm afraid she's looking for you!" I'll go first. Mrs. Wang, you're still waiting for me to reply! Now that you've settled down on your side, send me a letter as soon as possible. ”
"Why don't you sit down again?" Fu Tingyun thought for a while and said, "Our grandfather is meeting guests, I'll take the time to let Yanqing hand over a word later, and see if we can ask our grandfather to reply?" ”
Chen Shishi thought for a while and said, "Okay then?" I'll have to be a villain for a while. ”
Fu Tingyun smiled: "I wish you were a villain to come every day." "Turn around and tell Pearl, "Please sit in Mrs. Wu's room." ”
Pearl went in response and accompanied Mrs. Wu in.
Mrs. Wu already knew that Fu Tingyun had a guest, and she was also familiar with Chen Shi's family, so she greeted each other with a smile and sat down to talk.
Fu Tingyun and Mrs. Wu said politely: "...... We are still too young, no better than Madame, we acted prudently, and we arranged things early. Wait until the days of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and you can easily go to watch the lanterns. ”
When Mrs. Wu heard this, she sighed and said, "The affairs of this family are like the weeds in the flower bed. I also thought the same, I gave the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts early, and on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I could go to Gulou Street with my son and daughter-in-law to see the lanterns. Who knows that the Boxing Festival has not been arranged, but there are relatives in my hometown, who have lived here for seven or eight days, not to mention, and pestered me to help, I annoy him, and I am afraid that others will say that I am rich now, and I am now dustless, and I look down on these old relatives at home, and I have to be patient with them, it is really not a human life! ”
"The emperor still has three poor relatives?" Fu Tingyun socialized with her, "What's more, Lord Wu's family has a big business, and there are many in-laws like this, so Mrs. Wu has to bother more." He added, "Fortunately, it's Mrs. Wu, if it's a tired person like me, I'm afraid that I can't help it." ”
Mrs. Wu glanced at Chen Shi when she heard this, and stopped talking.
Chen Shi was a little uncomfortable. But when he thought about it, he thought that Yanqing had already gone to ask Zhao Ling, and he was unwilling to give up this opportunity. When I didn't see it, I also chatted with Mrs. Wu, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes!" Our relatives are all entertained by my mother-in-law, I sometimes look at my mother-in-law is anxious, but my mother-in-law is not moving, I look at it really admiration! Then he sighed, "I don't know when I'll be able to be like my mother-in-law and let it go." ”
It seems that Mrs. Wu really has something to say to her!
Fu Tingyun secretly pondered in his heart.
There is no intersection between the two families, what can Mrs. Wu do to find her?
She kind of didn't want to take the hand.
smiled and echoed Chen Shishi: "You think you are a stone?" Or let it blow the southeast and northwest winds, standing still? ”
Chen Shi burst out laughing.
Lord Wu's personal mother suddenly walked in sweating profusely.
Mrs. Wu couldn't help frowning when she looked at it.
The mother hurriedly saluted Fu Tingyun and Chen Shishi with some hesitation, and whispered a few words in Mrs. Wu's ear.
Mrs. Wu's expression changed greatly, and she immediately got up and said, "There is something going on at home, so I'll leave first." Come back another day. ”
Although the mother's voice was soft, Fu Tingyun and Chen Shishi could understand it.
They quickly exchanged a look, smiled and got up together: "Mrs. Wu, don't be polite, we'll get together again when we have time." ”
Sent Mrs. Wu out of the door.
