The four officials took three people to find Lao Wang's steamed bun shop, and the steamed bun shop would not open in the afternoon, so they naturally pounced.

He was pointed out to the king's house again.

There was also a group of people watching the excitement in the back.

Old Lady Wang walked to the door, her face was calm and relaxed: "Ladies and gentlemen, what are you doing to come to our Wang family?" ”

When the official in front heard Mrs. Wang say this, he thought that the owner of the house was also polite, but he was relieved.

The most feared are those who are rude and reckless, and if they don't listen, they will ruin the things of adults.

The official in front of him arched his hand: "Take the liberty to disturb, I heard that the Wang family is a kind family, and several of my brothers are passing by here and want to spend a few nights." ”

They wanted to go to the inn, but Nanhe Town was not big, and there was only one inn in Tonggong, and today many vendors came over and booked rooms in the inn, so they had no place to stay even if they wanted to.

There is a place for reception officials on the other side of the station, but they are now on official business, and it is inconvenient to disclose it.

I had to find the Wang family directly.

Mrs. Wang's expression fluctuated a little when she saw a few officials talking, and she didn't ask much, but welcomed people in.

After that, he asked his sons to tie the door shut and cut off the eyes of the outside.

When the others saw that the official had entered Wang's house, they closed the door again, and they were still a little confused for a while.

"I thought it was something wrong with the Wang family, but now it seems that those officials came to stay at the Wang family on purpose."

"There are also a few wealthy families and squires in our Nanhe Town, why did the officials only choose the Wang family, could it be someone the Wang family knows?"

"The old Wang family has only been in town for a few months, and I haven't seen them deal with any officials, maybe it's their previous connections."

"In any case, this shows that the people of the Wang family have a background, let's not offend them on weekdays."

"The Wang family is so kind, and they haven't gotten along with us, why do you say that?"

"I'll just say it casually......"

As a man talked, he saw that there was no excitement to see, so he dispersed.

It's just that occasionally people look at the Wang's house, wondering if they can hear some news to satisfy their curiosity.

After getting into the house, Mrs. Wang asked her daughters-in-law to make tea, and arranged for the children who were tired of playing to sleep, and then took the old Wang and her sons to receive them.

A few officials thought that the Wang family was in charge, but they didn't expect that Wu Yang would occupy a large house.

Mrs. Wang: "Don't worry about it, the official doesn't have to worry about it, these are my unsuccessful sons, and they are all my own family." ”

The official in charge almost nodded, this is someone else's business, so naturally there is no need to ask too much.

The official told the purpose of their trip to Mrs. Wang and others.

"Our lord and new official have taken office, if we take these witnesses directly, maybe the matter will still be very tricky, so we can only order us to bring the witnesses here first, I hope it will not cause trouble to the old lady."

It is naturally impossible to say that there is no trouble, but if these witnesses really want to testify against the former county order, their personal safety must be protected.

Mrs. Wang bowed her head: "The stakes are very high, and the old man is not such an impolite person, thanks to the trust of the adults, the officials and these brothers will live at home first, and it will not be too late to wait for the adults to deal with the matter of taking office." ”

"The old lady is open-minded!" All the officials and messengers bowed their hands to Mrs. Wang.

The other party is willing to cooperate, and they are naturally much more relieved.

Mrs. Wang said to Wang Chuanfu: "You and the Feng family go and make arrangements, let a few officials and these brothers live first, and let the Ma family go to the stove room to cook a few dishes." ”

"Old lady, we have eaten on the way when we came, so we don't have to bother anymore."

After arranging several official errands, Xiao Ayu also opened the gifts almost and set up a room full of them.

Most of them are children's gadgets, some beaded flowers, and some are embroidered shoes worn by children.

Wang Wulang was originally going to sleep, but later heard that Xiao Ayu was opening gifts, so he ran over.

Wang Liulang and Wang Qilang heard the movement, and they did not miss the excitement.

Now the brothers are looking at a room full of gifts, and their eyes are full of greed.

"Last year, when we had our birthday, there was no food at home, so Grandma changed an egg, and the two of us shared half of it." Wang Liulang looked at those gifts, and his eyes were full of envy.

Xiao Ayu picked up these flowers, picked them up and handed them to Wang Liulang.

"Sixth brother, I can't use it all up, I'll give you these."

Wang Liulang couldn't cry or laugh: "This is all for girls, I can't use it." ”

Wang Wulang also said: "Sister Ayu, you can put it away, you can only collect it once a year." Don't take what Liulang said to heart, our family was poor at this time last year, and no one in our family had a birthday, but now the family is better, and the people in the village are living a better life, and there are naturally more gifts. ”

Wang Qilang also followed: "Yes, I am happy when I get a gift, there is nothing without a gift, we can all grow up healthy and healthy, and we can eat enough every day, which is better than any gift." ”

Liu was still waiting beside her, thinking about whether these children would be unbalanced, and when the time came, she would have to comfort them a few words, lest these brothers have opinions about their sisters.

Unexpectedly, they could think about it.

I'm afraid that adults don't necessarily have this open-minded mentality.

"Grandma said that we can all celebrate our birthdays this year, and we don't have to hold a wine banquet at that time, but it's still okay for our own family to give gifts. And the sugar gourd we sell also makes money, and when we celebrate our birthday, Grandma will give us a part of it, so don't you buy whatever you want? Wang Wulang smiled.

Liu couldn't help laughing, thinking that this was the final way to convince the children.

While a few people were talking, Chiding's voice suddenly sounded outside.

"Ayu."

Xiao Ayu ran out of the door, and saw Chiding and several people carrying a big box, and when they saw Xiao Ayu going out, they all smiled at her.

"Mr. Ding, what is this?"

Chi Ding wiped a handful of sweat, thinking that they had passed the news out in advance, and the time was just right, otherwise this gift would be meaningless tomorrow.

"This is the birthday gift given to you by the little boy, and it was transported from Wanning City." Chi Ding smiled at Xiao Ayu, "Do you want to come over and have a look?" ”

This movement also attracted Wang Wulang and others, and everyone ran out and looked around the big box.

Not to mention the contents of the box, just looking at the box, I think it is extraordinary.

The box itself is made of mahogany, with a protective layer of lacquer on the outside, plus a variety of exquisite carvings, if it is not too big, it can be directly used as an ornament.

There is also a lock hanging on the top of the box, which looks particularly beautiful.

Xiao Ayu approached the box, but there was some confusion on her face.

"What's wrong? Don't want to check it out? "Chi Ding, look at this little Ayu.

Xiao Ayu squirmed and said: "Brother Ayou's birthday, I didn't send anything, and now that I'm on my birthday, I shouldn't accept such a big box." ”

"Grandma said, you can't suffer, but you can't take advantage of others."

She said word by word, very seriously.
