Chapter 729: Far News (I)

"Big brother knows." Eleven Niang sighed, "There are some things that the eldest brother told me, let me persuade the fifth sister." I also asked the fifth sister sideways, and the fifth sister only said that Brother Xin had served Brother Xin since she was a child, and Brother Xin couldn't leave for a while, delaying her age, and it was not easy to marry, and she was not in Wendeng all the year round, so she asked the fifth brother-in-law to accept the burning peach. As for Zhao Sheng's matter, it is said that there is no suitable person, then Zhao Sheng is from our family, and he knows the roots, rather than inviting others, it is better to invite Zhao Sheng. ”

"How can the fifth sister be like this?" Before she finished speaking, Twelve Niang said, "Family, what is there to hide, she is like this, how can we help her!" As he spoke, his tone paused, and he said helplessly, "However, the fifth sister used to have a good face when she was at home, and we are the ...... of the younger sister."

"yes!" Eleven Niang said: "I had to tell my eldest brother what she said." The eldest brother can't help it, saying that the lawsuit still has to be bitter, and now there is no bitter master, can we still go beyond the line and replace it? ”

The sisters were relatively speechless.

"Forget it, don't talk about these things!" Eleven Niang said, "It is difficult for a Qing official to cut off family affairs, and the fifth sister is also a person who wants to marry a daughter-in-law, how to live her life, she has her own arrangements and plans." It's a rare time for you to come here, so let's go back after dinner! ”

Twelve Niang took a long breath and put this matter behind her for the time being.

"Yingniang is okay?" She smiled, "I saw Brother Zhuang when she was one year old!" ”

"It's good." Eleven Niang smiled and asked Leng Xiang to invite Yingniang to come over to accompany her, "Brother Zhuang can go to the ground now, running around, she follows her every day, and she doesn't dare to blink." Yesterday, he held my arm and said that he missed his fourth sister-in-law and wanted to honor me. It can be seen that this woman is a mother, and she knows the hard work of being a mother, and only then does she know that it is not easy to be a mother. ”

Twelve Niang nodded with a smile.

Yingniang is here.

"Why don't you bring Brother Zhuang over!" Or because I spent my childhood in Yuyao's Luyun Building, Twelve Niang likes to be lively, it happens that there are more than three aunts and six mothers-in-law in the Wang family, whose mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have something she likes to help, everyone likes her, and the family often sits in a room of people, so that three people eat, in her opinion, it is very lonely, "I haven't seen him for some days." ”

"He can't sit still now," Ying Niang complained, but there was a gentle smile between her eyebrows, "I have to feed the nurse in the back after a meal." I didn't bring him with me. ”

"There are no outsiders, what are you doing with those false courtesies." Twelve Niang smiled, "Which family's children didn't grow up like this." Then he quipped, "I didn't call you here to see you, but to meet our Brother Zhuang!" ”

Yingniang grinned, asked the maid to hug Brother Zhuang, a few people teased the child, and the time "swished" to the afternoon, Twelve Niang thought about Wang Ze at home, and went home.

After half of July, the twelfth mother came to give the eleventh mother a Mid-Autumn Festival gift and pulled her to say something considerate.

"I inquired clearly," she whispered, "said that when the fifth brother-in-law was in office before, the fifth sister wanted to take care of the children in Yanjing, so she thought about buying someone for the fifth brother-in-law to serve by her side, but the value was too expensive, the value was cheap, and she had never been trained, so she was afraid that she would be brought in and cause trouble." After thinking about it, the fifth sister thought of Zhuo Tao, who was old and unmarried, and felt that Zhuo Tao had been under the nose of the fifth brother-in-law for so many years, and the fifth brother-in-law had not looked at her squarely, so it was better to let the fifth brother-in-law accept her. Speaking of this, she showed a bitter expression, "Who would have thought that it was such a burning peach, after following the fifth brother-in-law, but she won the favor of the fifth brother-in-law, the fifth sister didn't go, and the fifth brother-in-law didn't urge her like before, and he also got Zhao Sheng to Wendeng to be the master of money and grain."

"The fifth sister couldn't get off the stage, so she went to Wendeng for the Chinese New Year and asked the fifth brother-in-law to resign Zhao Sheng. But the fifth brother-in-law said that Zhao Sheng did a good job in the Luo family, if it wasn't for helping him, how could he come to Wendeng. Now that he finally helped him open up the situation in Wendeng, how can there be any reason to quit people. also said that Zhao Sheng is a member of the Luo family, and it is better than inviting someone from outside.

Wu Niang had no choice, so she lived there for a few days. wanted to find Zhao Sheng's fault, but instead of finding Zhao Sheng's business, Zhao Sheng found her fault! ”

Shi Niang's expression froze when she heard this: "Where did you hear these words?" ”

"I was very worried about the fifth sister, so I wrote a letter back to Yuyao," Twelve Niang said, "It was my sister-in-law who told me!" ”

In this way, the *** of ten is true!

Eleven Niang groaned: "Zhao Sheng found the fault of the fifth sister, how can you say this?" ”

Twelve Niang's expression darkened: "Someone took a thousand taels of silver to the fifth sister and begged the fifth sister to help fight a lawsuit." The fifth sister said a word to the criminal master, and she handled the matter. Somehow Zhao Sheng knew about this matter, and told the fifth brother-in-law again, and the fifth brother-in-law pointed to the fifth sister's nose and told the fifth sister to get out of ...... The fifth sister couldn't save face, so she talked about her mother's sponsorship of the fifth brother-in-law's study, and said that if it weren't for Master Hou, he would have been able to buy a house in Yanjing...... The fifth brother-in-law was so angry that his face turned purple, and he slapped himself twice on the spot, and since then, he has never said a word to the fifth sister.

"Those subordinates see the wind and make the rudder, and the fifth sister goes in and out without even a person to speak. The fifth sister couldn't stay in Wendeng anymore, so she came back with Brother Xin and Sister Tian. ”

Eleven Niang's face became more and more solemn when she heard this: "In the past, did the fifth sister also do something similar to accepting money to help people fight lawsuits?" ”

Twelve Niang nodded: "Sister-in-law said that Zhao Sheng was the master of money and grain for the fifth brother-in-law, and the sister-in-law once wrote a letter to question the fifth brother-in-law, but the fifth brother-in-law said that the former master of money and grain had instigated the fifth sister to exchange the first-class official land for the low-grade private land that had just been reclaimed and then sell the land to make a profit...... The sister-in-law wrote to ask the fifth sister, and the fifth sister said that the county orders next door all did this, how could it be that when they got there, it became a heinous crime! also said that who doesn't want to be a clean official like the eldest brother, but he has to have that family background. The fifth brother-in-law's family doesn't talk about sticking silver to them, and they have to send silver to their homes every year. The fifth brother-in-law's annual income is only forty-five taels of silver, and a large number of people in the family are enough to eat or drink? If she doesn't do this, how can she get by. also said that the sister-in-law is also the person in charge, and others don't know, doesn't the sister-in-law know the hardships? The sister-in-law was speechless, and it was no longer easy to meddle in this matter!

"No wonder she doesn't go to Wenden!" Eleven Niang said authentically, "It's not that she doesn't want to go, it's that she doesn't even have a place to stand...... This is really a shame to die. Over the years, everyone thought that she didn't go to Wendeng because she was afraid of suffering. ”

Twelve Niang also sighed, and then said: "The fifth sister returned to Yanjing, and the fifth brother-in-law asked people to send two thousand taels of silver to the fifth sister every year. When the fifth sister first started, she thought it was okay, out of sight and out of mind, and devoted herself to taking care of the children in Yanjing. When Brother Xin has a fame, he will have something to rely on. If your hands are tight, you can still drop some silver every year. But after a long time, the fifth sister felt uncomfortable. felt that since the fifth brother-in-law could give her 2,000 taels of silver every year, Zhuo Tao followed the fifth brother-in-law to be Mrs. Ru in Wendeng, and she didn't know how to be majestic. I went to Wenden again. ”

Eleven Niang leaned over and said eagerly: "What is the result?" ”

Twelve Niang let out a long sigh: "Zhuo Tao rarely goes out, and she is also coarse at home, spinning and weaving, growing vegetables and raising chickens, like a peasant woman." Serving the fifth brother-in-law, Tang Shui is more virtuous than a serious lady. The people of Wendeng praised the five brothers-in-law's strict family discipline. It is said that Huang You married his fifth brother-in-law, and he also took a fancy to the orderliness of the fifth brother-in-law. ”

Eleven Niang was a little stammered, and only said after a while: "Why did the fifth sister call Zhuo Tao back?" ”

Twelve Niang said in a low voice: "I heard that Zhuo Tao was pregnant last spring and didn't keep it. The fifth sister was afraid that if this continued, the fifth brother-in-law would only have a burning peach in her eyes, so she called the burning peach back under the pretext of letting the burning peach nourish her body, and then bought a white little girl and sent it to Wendeng. This year, under the pretext that Brother Sheng was going to get married, she couldn't be busy alone, so she left Zhuo Tao at home. ”

"Did the fifth brother-in-law send someone to beg for a burning peach?" Eleven Niang thought about it and asked Twelve Niang.

"Nope!" Twelve Niang's eyes were also a little confused, "So this time Wu Niang is going to come back after the New Year in Wendeng." One is to lead the new daughter-in-law to Wendeng's rich gentleman's house as a guest, and the other is to see if the honest one who serves by the fifth brother-in-law's side is not honest. ”

I'm afraid I still want Zhuo Tao to see, without her, Qian Ming's life is still good!

sent Twelve Niang away, and Eleven Niang wrote a letter to Luo Zhenxing, asking him what Qian Ming's reputation was in the officialdom. Then he began to be busy with the Mid-Autumn Festival, and was busy preparing for Enke in September for Xu Siyu.

Xu Siyu was even more nervous than the first time he took the exam.

Mrs. Tai even ignored her age, and asked the second lady and Eleven Niang to accompany her to the temple to worship the Bodhisattva and make a wish.

Xu Sijian knew and ridiculed Xu Sijian: "If I were you, just take the test casually, you don't need to be so serious." We are now also the nephew of the Queen Mother and the cousin of the emperor, not to mention anything else, it shouldn't be difficult to get a commander of the four grades, right? The second brother was admitted to the Jinshi, starting from the seventh grade, and in the sixth department, it took at least ten years to be the fourth grade. If it is released, the Senate will only start from the fourth grade, and it will take at least twenty years......"

"What nonsense?" Mrs. Tai picked up the fan in her hand and slapped it fiercely on Xu Sijian's head.

Xu Sijian held his head and ran around.

Everyone laughed.

"That's different." Xu Siyu smiled, "Enyin seems to be fast, but in fact, it is difficult to be promoted in the future. Although the imperial examination is slow, one step at a time, the heart is steady. Looking at Xu Sijian's eyes, he showed gratitude, knowing that Xu Sijian was making him happy. However, Xu Sijian made such a fuss, and he did feel a lot more relaxed in his heart.

When it came to the end of the day, it was the easiest day.

After taking the test paper, there was a question that had something in common with a strategy he had done a few days ago, and he was more confident, and the paper was full of flowers. Three days later, when he came out to see Xu Siqin, Xu Sijian, Xu Sizhen and Xu Sijie who came to pick him up, he couldn't help but show a big smile.
