Chapter 230: Repaying the Favor
Not to mention that these things are being dealt with in the Chengenhou Mansion, let's just say that after Wu Guogong returned to his home from the Chengenhou Mansion, he happily told his wife about finding a life-saving benefactor.
Duchess Wu Guo was naturally very happy.
You must know that the entire Guogong Mansion was defeated by Wu Guogong.
Although her son is now barely in charge. However, Duke Wu can be regarded as an old minister who has gone through three dynasties.
For the sake of the face of the grandfather, the emperor will take extra care of their mansion.
This is also the reason why, although Duke Wu Guo is already sixty-five years old, he did not pass on the title to the prince.
Therefore, Jiang Zhixia saved the Duke of Wuguo, and to put it mildly, it can be regarded as saving the dignity and honor of the Duke of Wuguo.
"On the way back, I arranged for someone to inquire about this girl. Someone just came to report it. It turned out that this girl was a palace maid who came out of the queen's palace. Originally, he was just married to a military general. Who would have thought that this rough military general would instead become the son of Chengenhou. She also became the wife of the Chengenhou Mansion. ”
Wu Guogong said with a sigh.
has been a rough palace maid, so naturally I don't care much about the material of the clothes. No wonder she walked around the village in kudzu clothes.
After hearing this, Duchess Wu Guo pondered for a long time.
"The master said so, but I thought of a way to repay the favor. However, this matter needs to be discussed by the government. Save the daughters-in-law from being unwilling. Duchess Wu Guo said first.
Immediately, she laughed again, "You don't have to discuss everything." If you really want to be more serious, it is we who take advantage of others. People may not be able to agree to it. ”
Wu Guogong listened to his wife's ambiguous words, but he really didn't understand.
How can it be repaying the favor again, and taking advantage of others.
So, Duchess Wu Guo talked to Wu Guogong carefully.
After hearing this, Wu Guogong also laughed, "This is true." said that it was a return for the favor, but it was the icing on the cake. However, it is possible to prepare some rare objects for her to lift her face. also talked about repaying the favor. ”
The two of them agreed, and when it was evening, they only talked about it with the prince of Wuguo and the wife of the prince of Wuguo.
Fortunately, Mrs. Shizi is not young, but she will not worry about this kind of thing, so she is naturally busy.
Since the people in charge of the Wuguo Mansion have been decided, they put the repayment of gratitude on the agenda.
On the third day after the banquet, the Duke of Wuguo sent a post to the Chengenhou Mansion, saying that he wanted to visit the house.
Mrs. Chengenhou took the post, went to the Chu Mansion in Anruo Lane, and told Jiang Zhixia and Liu Tiankuo about the matter.
"We only have normal dealings with the Duke of Wuguo's mansion. It's not a good home, and I don't understand why I have to come to congratulate the child on getting back. I also named you to see you. ”
Mrs. Chengenhou used a confused tone, but there was no trace of confusion in her expression at all.
It just so happened that she was given the opportunity to meet her son and daughter-in-law.
Although she said that as a mother-in-law, she could come to see her son and daughter-in-law at any time, but she always came, and she was afraid that they would be annoying.
She's really being a little cautious now.
Jiang Zhixia also discovered the state of Mrs. Chengenhou, and couldn't help but sigh.
She can actually understand Mrs. Chengenhou's dedication to her grandson. Not only in this life, but also in the past life, how many mothers-in-law can turn a blind eye to their daughter-in-law's infertility?
Mrs. Chengenhou didn't make a fuss, she must have let Liu Tiankuo take a break from her, in fact, it was already calculated. She just used the thinking of a woman in this era and wanted her son to take a concubine.
Because of this thinking, she also felt that Jiang Zhixia would definitely be able to accept serving a husband with others.
Although, in fact, it is not.
"Whatever the reason, just go and see it. My mother set a date, and my husband and I will go back together. ”
Jiang Zhixia said gently.
Gu Qi and Liu Tiankuo are still at home.
Originally, Liu Tiankuo went home from the Zhenwei army because of his identity and the taboo of the mighty marquis.
Now, Liu Tiankuo has broken off his righteous relationship with the Marquis of Weiwu, and he can't stay in the Zhenwei Army anymore.
Fortunately, there is no war now, so Liu Tiankuo's leisure at home has no effect.
"Well, let's set it on the fifteenth day. Let your father be busy with the affairs of the yamen first, and then take a rest on that day. How about you come to the house in the morning and have breakfast with us? ”
Mrs. Chengenhou said earnestly.
Cheng Enhou is always busy with state affairs on weekdays, so it is useless to save a lot of rest.
Since he found Liu Tiankuo, he has used a lot of Xiu Mu that he had saved before.
Now it's the wax moon. Because during the Chinese New Year, the yamen has to close the pen and take a holiday, so the officials are busier now.
It's just to wait for the holiday to be more relaxed.
After dealing with things yesterday, he hurried to the yamen today------ it's almost the New Year, and it's not good to continue to take leave and let others work for him.
After returning home in the evening, it was time for the curfew, and even if he was a nobleman, it was not good to violate the curfew every day.
That's why, before Cheng Enhou and his wife wanted Liu Tiankuo to move home.
Now there are still a few days before the next month, and it is not appropriate for the people of the Wuguo Mansion to wait until that day to visit----- it will drag on for too long.
Therefore, the fifteenth in the middle is also appropriate.
Cheng Enhou went to the yamen to deal with the urgent matters at hand these days, and it was nothing to take a day off on the fifteenth.
Liu Tiankuo and Jiang Zhixia naturally nodded yes.
After finishing business, Mrs. Cheng Enhou began to chat with the two of them again.
In a blink of an eye, on the fifteenth, Liu Tiankuo and Jiang Zhixia arrived at Chengenhou's mansion, accompanied Chengenhou and his wife to have breakfast, and drank tea and chatted and waited.
At about three o'clock, Duke Wu and Duchess Wu Guo came.
When Cheng Enhou greeted the people, he planned to lead Wu Guogong to the front yard, but they said that they wanted to meet Liu Tiankuo and Jiang Zhixia together, so everyone went to the courtyard of the long house together.
Entering the main hall, Jiang Zhixia was taken aback when she saw Wu Guogong, but she quickly lowered her head, her face was cloudy.
Yes, Xing Zhuangtou seems to have said that the old man who was rescued was Wu Guogong. However, after that, so many things happened that she completely forgot about them.
Even the day before yesterday, when Mrs. talked about the Wuguo Mansion, she didn't react at all.
Everyone sat down, and Mrs. Chengenhou beckoned Liu Tiankuo and Jiang Zhixia to salute Wu Guogong and his wife, and got the greeting gift.
Then, the crowd began to greet each other.
After greeting for a while, Wu Guogong told Jiang Zhixia that he was his life-saving benefactor.
Hearing this, Cheng Enhou and his wife were naturally surprised.
Liu Tiankuo was thoughtful.
That time in Zhuangzi, Xing Zhuangtou said that Wu Guogong was out of breath, but he was saved by a girl.
At that time, Zhixia was a little uncertain. He felt that Zhixia didn't trust him enough, so he didn't ask Zhixia either.
Now that I think about it, what Xing Zhuangtou said must be this thing.
