Chapter 145: People with Hearts

Zheng Qingluan originally thought that he would get together simply in the house, but he didn't expect that there would be a lot of guests early in the morning. Kowtow to his birthday, Zheng Qingluan didn't dare to bear it. Or Zheng Lao Er came out as an elder, saying that the child was young, and he was afraid that the etiquette would be too heavy and the blessing would be compromised, so it was just that.

Because there are so many people, I can't talk to anyone well. The female guests are placed in the Shuai Mansion, and the male guests are in the restaurant. Zheng Qingluan was running on both sides to socialize, and he didn't have time to eat well all day, this birthday was really a special taste.

Until the evening, the guests dispersed. Baiyi set up dinner. Seeing that Zheng Lao Er and Wang Xinghua also came over, Zheng Qingluan smiled, "I drank a lot of bars today, why didn't you rest early?"

"Where do you drink too much?" Zheng Lao Er smiled, "Knowing our identity, everyone has some scruples, where do they dare to come up and pour wine, and they all keep the etiquette." ”

"That's good," Zheng Qingluan pointed to the dining table, "Dumplings, do you want to try them?"

"Then I'll eat with you. Wang Xinghua sat down unceremoniously, "But I'm really hungry." I'm talking to people now, but I don't have time to eat. ”

Of course, it would be good to have someone to eat with you today, Zheng Qingluan happily set the chopsticks in person, "Then try them all." ”

There are beef and green onion filling, mutton and radish filling, and dumplings with three fresh fillings. The three of them had a round belly.

After eating, Zheng Lao Er said, "Tomorrow morning, we will leave, be careful." ”

Zheng Qingluan nodded, "It's okay, I have a score in my heart." It just so happened that Xiao Shi and the others were going back to the south and going on the same road with you. He was a man who was always on the go, and he was a trustworthy person. Let them send you back, and I will rest assured. ”

"It's okay," Wang Xinghua said with a smile, "There are more people, and the road is convenient." ”

"They carry tents, pots and pans with them, and they can set up camp at any time. You will suffer less sin on the way. After Zheng Qingluan finished speaking, he asked people to call Xiao Er and Xiao Shi.

Because the south side is the time to employ people, Xiao Shi didn't dare to stay longer, and he planned to leave early tomorrow morning, but now the master let him stop by a little bit, so naturally there is no problem. What's more, it's still the little master's mother's family, so it's no problem, patting his chest to assure, "Don't worry, the master will be delivered home safely." ”

Early the next morning, after having breakfast early, Zheng Lao Er and Wang Xinghua followed Xiao Shi with two carts of things and a thick letter. Because I was carrying something, I couldn't walk fast on the road, so I simply took a carriage. The carriage is equipped with a charcoal pot stove, and eating and drinking can be guaranteed to be hot. It's still cold, but it's a blessing when you compare it. The further south you go, the warmer it gets. On the third day, the leather coat could not be worn, and the cotton jacket and cotton robe were just right. It was two days earlier, and I had to wear a jacket. At this time, it is not far from home. The group arrived at the county seat at noon on the sixth day. Wang Xinghua is the head snake in the county, and it is safe enough to get here. Xiao Shi didn't dare to stay longer, and after confirming that the two of them were really safe, he led people to ride south.

Knowing that the family was in a hurry, the two did not stay long in the county seat, and one drove a carriage to the house. Get home before dark. Half a month has passed since I left and when I came back. Zheng Laosan slowly faded because of the congratulatory tide attracted by the middle move. Not only the family is tired, but the whole clan is also tired. Seeing that Zheng Lao Er and Wang Xinghua came back safely, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Several women rummaged through crates of skin. Song took a piece of lambskin in his hand and looked through it, and said with a smile, "Why is our girl so sincere? ”

"That's why I said this girl is unreliable. Qian frowned and flipped over the wolf skin in his hand, "Look, this is the wolf skin that was specially mentioned in the letter, let him make a wolf skin mattress for his father." ”

Mei stepped forward to take a closer look, "It's a rare good skin." ”

Qian frowned and said, "What do you say about making the Xiao family think? This girl is really not worried." ”

"What does the Xiao family think?" Zheng Qingju snorted and said, "What do you think about love?

"You girl" Qian was about to scold the eldest daughter, remembering that the son-in-law was still there, and he couldn't hurt the girl's face, "How can you talk like that?" glared at the eldest girl, and then smiled at Wang Xinghua, "Orange, this girl, you don't talk too much, you take care of it." ”

Wang Xinghua listened to Zheng Laosan and them, while paying attention to the movement of the woman's side, and when he asked him, he hurriedly smiled, "Orange is not wrong." But mother, don't worry, the generals under my sister's house in the border city are respectful and call the master. Hou Ye also specially sent a birthday gift from Qiongzhou in the south, which was purchased by Hou Ye himself. That big coral, without 10,000 taels of silver, it will never be able to buy. What's more, the price of leather is not high in the border city, and it is considered a local specialty. No one said anything, don't worry. ”

Qian Shi nodded, "Ping An is reliable." I believe his words. ”

Zheng Qingju asked, "Do you see that girl is fat and thin?" Luan'er doesn't seem to be picky, but if you really count it, it's hard for her to serve. I don't know if I'm used to eating the food over there?"

Qian glanced at the eldest girl appreciatively. She has always wanted to ask this, but one is an uncle and the other is a son-in-law, so she can't open her mouth. Fortunately, the eldest girl finally managed to be clever once.

Wang Xinghua is a shrewd person, he immediately understood, so he smiled and said trivial things little by little, "The Shuai Mansion is built as small as half a county town, and the house can train soldiers, Zhou Hai is now the internal housekeeper of the Shuai Mansion, and he is in charge of the food, drink and Lazar of seven or eight hundred people." ”

Zhou Hai's mother-in-law was waiting in the house, and when she heard this, everyone looked at her. Sister-in-law Zhou smiled toothlessly, "That's the master's weight." ”

If you can put the subordinates brought by your family in such a position, you can't go wrong with the things that you are in charge of.

"Although the border city is cold, the Shuai's mansion is full of fire walls, and you can wear jackets in the house. As for eating, let's not talk about meat, there are all kinds of dried vegetables and dry goods, and Hou Ye also specially sent dried seafood, and he couldn't lose his mouth. People look at the spirit. Wang Xinghua smiled and said something he saw, An An's mother-in-law's heart.

Seeing Qian nodding with satisfaction, Wang Xinghua breathed a sigh of relief.

Zheng Laosan called his brothers, nieces and sons-in-law to the study, and where there were women, they couldn't talk properly.

"Second brother, Luan'er can indeed suppress Xiao Jiajun. Zheng Laosan asked uncertainly.

"Why can't you hold it down?" Zheng Lao Er tasted the tea in the cup and sighed, "On that girl's birthday, I took pictures with those generals of all sizes, and I really didn't have any thorns, and I mixed outside for half my life, and I still have a little bit of a look at people." ”

Wang Xinghua nodded, "I really respect it like a master" Of course, there is fear. It's hard for him to say.

Zheng Laosan nodded, "That's good" He put a little bit of heart, remembering that his daughter's letter repeatedly told him to let Dr. Li come to ask for a peace pulse in five days, and his heart became more and more ironing.

said that Zheng Qingluan sent away Zheng Lao Er and Wang Xinghua, and his heart was inevitably empty.

One hundred and one hundred and two of them came over with a gift list, "Look, this is the gift list of each family." ”

Zheng Qingluan crooked on the kang, looking through them one by one, but some food and clothing, embroidery and jewelry, and some were sent calligraphy, paintings, swords and swords, all kinds of things. To say that the only one who looks perfunctory is Yang Zhihe. His gift list reads a copy of his travelogue. This made Zheng Qingluan curious.

Yang Zhihe still didn't show up this time, and the gift list was as simple as that. It doesn't work if you don't think about it.

Zheng Qingluan took this gift list and pondered for a moment, and instructed Baiyi, "Find out the congratulatory gifts of Yang Zhihe and the general, and I'll take a look." ”

A little bit, but it took a moment. After all, Yang Zhihe's status is high enough, where does he dare to deal with his congratulatory gifts at will. It's all in a specific place. "General Yang didn't come today, and I will put aside his congratulatory gifts. ”

Zheng Qingluan nodded, "Very good." She took the box and opened it gently, revealing a large stack of papers, old and new. She flipped through it casually, only to realize that this was a travelogue, which was clearly a record of the geography and climate of the border city. Where are the mountains, where are the rivers, how far apart are the two places, what kind of weather, what kind of people, how long does it take to travel between the two places? It's all clearly written. Zheng Qingluan sat up, and the more he looked at it, the more solemn he became

Yang Zhihe is really a caring person.

Zheng Qingluan looked at these manuscripts, I am afraid that this is the hard work of Yang Zhihe for half a lifetime. She solemnly put it away and instructed Baiyi, "Go and talk to Xiao Wu, and let someone inform Yang Zhihe that tomorrow morning, come to the Shuai Mansion." I've got something to look for him. ”

When Baiyi saw the serious expression on his master's face, he naturally didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly went to pass the word in person.

Yang Zhihe was sitting in the study at the moment, and opposite sat his sworn brother, Huang Hua.

"Isn't it a pity to hand it over like this after half a lifetime of hard work?" Yang Zhihe took the wine glass and handed it over, and his scarred face rarely showed a little softness.

"I'm a waste, what's the use of keeping that thing?" Huang Hua looked at his legs and smiled bitterly.

Yang Zhihe smiled, "Still a little unwilling, right?"

"Who can be willing?" Huang Hua drank the wine in the cup, "Success or failure depends on these two days." That little master is a knowledgeable person. I think there will be news soon. ”

"If the master uses you, you won't have the leisure you have now. Yang Zhihe smiled, "And this little master is not a foolish master, unlike me, who can be fooled by your words." ”

"Go, go," Huang Hua threw the wine glass to the opposite side, "A strategist should look like a strategist, what kind of foolishness?"

Yang Zhihe grabbed the wine glass with his hand, "Still a strategist, I think it's just a dog-headed master." Our master is at a young age, and his wisdom is not lost to others, you better not be too confident, if you miss it, I will be embarrassed. ”

Huang Hua was about to speak, when a report came from outside the door, "General, someone from the Shuai Mansion is here." ”

The two couldn't help but glance at each other, a smile on their faces
