Chapter 260: Four Watches

Chapter 260

After another seven or eight days, many of the secret agents sent out by the emperor came back with news, but the difference on the bright side was that it took only three or five days for those secret agents to go to various places to find out the truth of what Lin Baozhu said. [No pop-ups. Later, the emperor's eyeliner was installed in various places, and it took a few days, and the natural return was delayed until the fifteenth day of the first month.

And the emperor looked at the secret report, but wherever there is a Zhang Ji Zhuang household, the people are safe, and every household does not worry about food. It's not that Zhang Ji distributed the grain, but at the beginning of the experiment, Zhang Ji found many people from the farmhouse to try to plant together, and it was a guaranteed trial. That is, if there is a good harvest, the harvest will go to the common people. If the trial fails, the money and loss of the seedlings will be borne by Zhang Ji.

In just two years, Zhang Ji has really been tossed a lot of rich places.

More importantly, due to the appearance of objects such as the Zhangji waterwheel, there were almost no places in the Great Zhou from south to north where grain could not be sown. Even in the barbaric land of Mobei, there is now sand rice, although the taste is worse, but it is better than asking the imperial court to find a way to send food from the side every year to make supplies.

To be honest, if the former was enough to make the emperor secretly surprised, then the latter's secret report about Mobei was enough to make the emperor feel uplifted. In this way, in less than ten years, Da Zhou will surely become the richest place, and it will also be the most confident place.

Of course, those have nothing to do with Lin Baozhu, and now she is looking at the sixth son who is a little unfavorable when she talks with a red face in front of her.

"Sister-in-law, I heard that Aunt Xiuniang plans to return to the village and start Zhang Luo Zhaodi's marriage, right?" The sixth son also heard what the eldest girl said, and immediately became anxious, and he didn't react at all, so he rushed to Lin Baozhu regardless of it. When I came, I remembered that I was embarrassed. But marrying a daughter-in-law is a big deal, even if it is embarrassing, you can't help but say it, so I just came to this sentence with my neck up.

Lin Baozhu was holding the stinky boy and was looking at the snow outside on the promenade, and now the little guy was very excited, grinning and tilting his head to whine and be happy. When he heard the words of the sixth son, didn't he just turn his head and look at it?

was exactly the same confused, and it wasn't until the sixth son who saw it was worried and blushing again that Lin Baozhu reacted.

"You are"

"Sister-in-law, I like to recruit Di, and I beg my sister-in-law to help me propose marriage." When the sixth son saw that his sister-in-law spoke, he didn't dare to be ashamed anymore, and hurriedly said, "I don't have a father and mother, and now I have a half-official position, and I also have a house in the capital, and I will be able to take care of the house if I marry Di, I will definitely be good to her, and I will not be half-hearted."

Seeing that the sixth son was in a hurry, Lin Baozhu's eyes couldn't help flashing a smile, but after a pause, she still spoke: "Sixth son, do you know that Zhao Di is Zhang Ji's housekeeper, even after getting married, she is afraid that she will have to show up for business?" ”

Seeing the sister-in-law's question, he didn't refuse to mention that he was going to propose his own marriage, so the sixth son breathed a sigh of relief, and then responded: "Sister-in-law, I know that as long as Zhaodi is willing to marry me, I don't care about that." ”

Seeing that Liuzi's face was sincere, and he was not embarrassed or hesitated, Lin Baozhu was naturally more satisfied. To be honest, if it weren't for Liuzi'er begging for her today, she would have forgotten about it.

"The steward of Zhang Kee in Peachtree Bay now has a new rule, women are not allowed to be concubines, and they are not allowed to work with others. Do you know? In fact, this is not Lin Baozhu's whimsical request, it was really after Shi Dayong's incident last time that she found out that no matter how much status a woman has in Zhang Ji, Xu is still nothing in the eyes of men.

And she no longer wants to see the people close to her like Xiuniang's sister-in-law, being bullied and deceived. In particular, those individuals may have earned money in Zhang Ji and have more than enough, and then they have a bad conscience. simply, he simply set this rule, of course, only limited to the management of various places in Peachtree Bay with Zhang Kee.

Seeing that the sister-in-law said this, the sixth son was even more relieved, and immediately made a solemn face and promised: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, if I have two hearts, let the eldest brother and sister-in-law dispose of it at will." ”

Here, Lin Baozhu tested all his words, and then turned sideways and smiled and said outside the corridor: "Sister-in-law, you said that the sixth son is the matchmaker, should I be the matchmaker?" ”

At this time, the sixth son saw it, and I don't know when, Aunt Xiuniang took Zhaodi to stand outside the corridor. And looking at Zhao Di's blushing face, hiding behind Xiuniang's aunt, but peeking at her eyes from time to time, he knew that he was afraid that his confession had been heard early.

But now that the words are spoken, he simply doesn't twist anymore. The eldest girl said that Zhao Di planned to leave after fifteen, and I was afraid that he would not have time to send it when the time came. If you can't let go of your face and ask for a kiss because you can't let go, I'm afraid you'll have to regret it for life.

Fortunately, Zhang Xiuniang also knows the sixth son, and she knows the roots, and she just listened to his assurance, and she was satisfied in her heart. It's just that if her daughter is married to her sixth son, she will have to stay in the capital to live, and if she returns to Peachtree Bay, I'm afraid she will also think about it. In case the sixth son gets angry after marrying his daughter, he doesn't know if he is far away.

People say that the girl who marries far away is the treasure lost by the mother. Since Shi Dayong changed her mind, she has really felt the pain of not having her mother's family, so how can she rest assured? is like Shi Dayong, wasn't he an honest man who was single-minded and down-to-earth? In the end, isn't it because you were squinted by the flower world outside and broke your heart?

Xu saw Zhang Xiuniang's scruples, Lin Baozhu teased her son who began to scratch her hair, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, the Guogong Mansion is Zhaodi's mother's family, and besides, you also know that I can't tolerate sand in my eyes, if the sixth son really changes his mind, even I can't spare him." ”

As a woman, and a mother with a daughter, Lin Baozhu can understand Zhang Xiuniang's worries very much. Besides, she has experienced how many women will collapse, if she experienced a scumbag at the beginning, maybe it would be better, Shi Dayong always looked infatuated and sincere in the first half of his life, and even in the end, if it wasn't for the silver pair, Xu would have been hiding his thoughts. Therefore, compared with others, Zhang Xiuniang will naturally be more worried about whether Zhao Di can find a consistent husband.

After a pause, Lin Baozhu waved her hand and let the grandmother next to her hug her son, and then pulled Zhao Di to him, and said softly: "Zhao Di, in the blink of an eye, you are also the eldest daughter, what do you think today?" Don't be afraid, only me and your mother and six sons are in front of you right now, if you don't want to just reject him. ”

It's not that Lin Baozhu didn't think about it well, so she didn't ask Zhao Di in private, but she thought that if this family business didn't work, it wouldn't hinder it. As soon as Zhao Di returned to Taoxi County, Northern Qi Prefecture, and the sixth son worked in the capital, the two were far apart, and they were not afraid of the embarrassment of looking up and not looking down. Second, she doesn't like to twist, so she can't do it.

Zhao Di blushed shyly, pursed her mouth and hung her head silently, until Aunt Baozhu finished asking, she said in a low voice: "I listen to my mother and aunt."

After saying that, she blushed again and glared at Liuzi, and then ran away. Only Lin Baozhu and Zhang Xiuniang were stunned for a moment, and then showed a happy smile. The daughter has grown up and has her own thoughts, but she is thin-skinned in the end.

And when the sixth son saw Zhao Di glaring at him and running away without saying a word, his heart suddenly became anxious, and he immediately wanted to chase after him regardless of it. It's also thanks to Lin Baozhu's quick reaction, and he shouted to stop the people, otherwise the people in the house would see it, and I don't know what unpleasant words would come out.

"Sister-in-law, what does Zhao Di mean?" The sixth son was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, and he couldn't wait to chase someone directly and ask clearly.

Don't look at the many ghost ideas he usually gives his eldest brother, but most of them are also heard in the talking book, and most of them are unreliable. In addition, he has always dealt with the old men, so he really doesn't have so many delicate thoughts, so he just says a few ridiculous words when he brags and farts, but in fact, he has grown so big that he hasn't even touched a woman's hand. The last time he was invited to a painting boat for a drink, he jumped off ship as if he was running away because he was afraid that the singer who was serving the wine would lean on him. For that, he was really laughed at by his brothers in the barracks later.

And now that Zhao Di doesn't care about herself, she just leaves, can the sixth son not be in a hurry?

Lin Baozhu glared at him with some hatred, shook his head and said, "Why are you in a hurry, why don't you hurry home and prepare for the wedding gift." Then let someone help buy a dowry letter of appointment, let me tell you that three media and six hires are indispensable. ”

When the sister-in-law said this, the sixth son was stunned as if he was in a dream, and then looked at Xiuniang's aunt like a helper, and when he nodded and agreed, he ran away happily. But Zhang Xiuniang, who was watching, also laughed.

This matter was initially decided, and the matter of asking relatives and hiring subordinates later naturally went very smoothly. Because Lin Baozhu is now commensurate with Zhang Xiuniang as a sister-in-law, Zhao Di is also a family member in the identity of Huguo Gongfutang Xiǎo Jiě.

On the sixth day of the first month of March, it is advisable to get married. It is also a day of great joy for the six sons to recruit Di together. Although it is not very grand, because of the face of Zhang Manchu and Lin Baozhu, many people also came to the court, and many brothers in the barracks also took leave to have a lively time.

Originally, many people wondered that Zhang Manchu and Liuzi really had a deep brotherly relationship, and they were obviously successful, but they still had a soft spot for country women. Especially the sixth son, how can he be regarded as a rising star, even the daughter of the Jiuqing family admires him to some extent, the young general is a five-grade official at a young age, and he is worried that he will not have a future in the future?

But what makes people lose their big teeth is that suddenly a country woman appeared and became his new wife.

Before anyone was surprised, they saw that shops all over Zhang Ji sent people to congratulate, and the carload of congratulatory gifts was lined up in front of the Guogong Mansion as early as the day before the wedding. At the end is the rare joyful gadgets, and there are a lot of money that can't be bought, and now it's just Zhang Ji himself producing objects that have not yet entered the market, just look at how many golden and precious boudoirs xiǎo jiě and women are greedy.
