"You're not mistaken." Mao said: "It's just that she was sick in the draft, so it was delayed." ”

"If it's because of this, it's not necessarily impossible." Uncle Chen thought for a while, and then said, "I'm afraid this prefect wants to show his good fortune to the eighth master!" ”

If the eighth master receives this love, he will naturally be good to the other party. And this prefect can also take the opportunity to connect with the eighth master. It's a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.

"Maybe." Mao Chengyun smiled and said, "No matter what the reason is, he recommended me anyway." But the rest can only be left to chance. ”

"Don't you want to stay in the capital? Let's put some effort into that! Uncle Chen said.

"You know me, I'm not going to do that." Mao Carrier Road. If he could drill the camp, he wouldn't have been a small garrison for so many years.

"Now that the opportunity is in front of you, why don't you fight for it? There is a prefect's recommendation, you go to find the eighth master again, this matter must be a certainty! Uncle Chen said.

Mao Chengyun shook his head and said, "I'm not looking for the eighth master, I don't want to make trouble for Tongtong." ”

"How can this be troublesome for Tongtong? Maybe it's too late for the eighth master to be happy! Uncle Chen looked like he hated iron but not steel, "If you stay in the capital as an official, it will also be good for Tongtong!" At least she still has someone to rely on in the capital! Don't you love her the most? Is it so hard to open a mouth for her? It's been so many years, why are you still a tendon! ”

Mao Chengyun tugged at the corners of his mouth, but he didn't let go. Uncle Chen couldn't help but look at Chen, and said, "Eldest sister, you persuade your brother-in-law!" This is a good opportunity to stay in the capital! In the future, you can see Tongtong often, and we can also take care of it, how good! ”

Before Chen could answer, Uncle Chen looked at Mao Tongtong again and said, "You Ama is not good at speaking, you should always open your mouth to the eighth master." This kind of thing is a matter of opening his mouth for the eighth master, a piece of cake! ”

"Third brother, you still don't know your brother-in-law? It has always been a tendon. Don't be embarrassed. This thing, with fate. To be able to stay in the capital, of course, everyone is happy. If you can't stay, it's fine. I'm going to buy the house this time, and it's the same when your brother-in-law comes back. Chen said.

As soon as she said this, Uncle Chen couldn't help but roll his eyes! What does it mean not to be a family and not to enter a door! This is!

Mao Tongtong couldn't help laughing and said, "Uncle, don't be in a hurry, my Ama is this kind of character." Leave him alone. If we really go around to help him stay in Beijing, he won't be sure in his heart! ”

Hearing this, Mao Chengyun laughed and said, "Tongtong still knows me best!" ”

Uncle Chen was quite helpless and didn't want to pay attention to Mao's carriage.

"Uncle, I really have to ask you to buy a house." Mao Tongtong smiled and said seriously to Uncle Chen: "I, Ama and Eniang, are not familiar with the capital, so it is inconvenient for me to leave the house." Only you can handle this. This is a thousand taels of silver tickets, you take them first. If there is a suitable home, you can help you make a deposit first. ”

Mao Tongtong said and asked Qingzhu on the side to take out the silver ticket.

"Don't, don't!" Uncle Chen hurriedly waved his hand and said, "How can anyone who hasn't done anything and got silver!" You put the money in place. There is really a suitable one, I made a deposit first. Could it be that I'm still afraid that your Ama and Eniang will run away? ”

Chen also said on the side: "E-Niang and you Ama buy a house, what kind of money do you pay!" Put the silver ticket away, you will have more time to use it in the future. ”

Only Su's eyes lit up. She didn't expect Mao Tongtong to be so generous, and she took it casually for a thousand taels. Think about Mao Tongtong when he first came to the capital, and it was enough to choke on a few dozen taels of silver! Sure enough, it was the side Fujin who did Lord Belle and was different! No wonder my lord said that he wanted to have a good relationship!

"Eniang, you and Ama sent me to Beijing, and took care of my brother's marriage, how much silver can I have at home? My daughter now has a lot of money and wants to contribute to the family. Besides, this house is for your retirement in the future, and it has to be presentable. We don't want to be big, at least the location should be good, and the environment should be good. Don't be polite to your daughter, just think of it as your daughter's filial piety. Mao Tongtong insisted on stuffing the silver ticket into Uncle Chen's hand and said, "Please ask Uncle for this matter." ”

"Eldest sister, you have raised a good daughter!" Uncle Chen looked envious, put away the silver ticket stuffed by Mao Tongtong and said, "Okay, I'll take this errand." I'll do it for you. With Tongtong's subsidy of 1,000 taels, I can buy a decent three-entry courtyard in the capital if I increase the number that my sister told me before. ”

"That's good." Mao Tongtong said with a smile.

Although Uncle Chen also has careful thoughts. But this matter can only be handed over to him is the most appropriate and reassuring. He's a man who sees long-term gains. For the sake of the relationship between the two families in the future, he will not play tricks in this matter, but will make great efforts to help.

"Hey, I can't help you." Chen glared at Mao Tongtong helplessly.

"Eldest sister, you should be happy! Such a sensible and capable daughter, others can't ask for it! Uncle Chen smiled.

Su Shi's face on the side was a little unpleasant. She gave birth to two daughters. One entered the palace and was not seen for many years. said that they were favored, but they didn't see the prince take any care of their family. The other seems to be married to a good family, but only he knows what it's like. It's good that Chen Ruzhu doesn't come to the house to ask for help, where can she subsidize her mother's family like Mao Tongtong is a silver ticket for a thousand taels!

She was envious and jealous in her heart. Thinking that she used to look down on Chen, but now she is not as good as Chen. She was holding her breath in her heart, but she still had to serve with a smile. Not to mention how uncomfortable it is.

Uncle Chen didn't know what Su was thinking, and praised Mao Tongtong again with a smile.

Mao Chengyun and Chen lived in the capital like this, and Mao Tongtong waited for the return of the eighth master, and visited Mao Chengyun and his wife from time to time, and the days passed unknowingly.

When she received the news sent back by the eighth master that she would arrive in the capital tomorrow, she actually felt that she was dreaming.

"Qingzhu, pinch me! Will you really come back tomorrow? ”

"Master, didn't that slave just say it clearly? Lord Belle will enter Beijing tomorrow, and it is likely that he will enter the palace as early as possible and return home at noon. Qingzhu said with a smile.

"I'm not dreaming! Is you really coming back? Mao Tongtong was so happy that she was a little at a loss.

"Master, you're not dreaming! Lord Belle is really coming back! Qingzhu smiled.

"Tuan Tuan, do you hear me? You're coming back! You, Amma, will come back tomorrow! Mao Tongtong happily picked up the group and spun around.

Mama Luo, who was frightened, hurriedly came over and protected her with her hands, "Ouch, master, slow down!" Don't fall! ”
