Chapter One Hundred and Seven
"Daiyu is still satisfied?"
Today, she left the Floating City, and as soon as she had dinner with He Qing and Tong Hui in her own village, she saw Sister Lin get out of the carriage with a red face and slip into the mansion of the Lin Mansion next door, while Mrs. Lin came to Zhiyun's side with a smile on her face.
Zhiyun squinted her eyes, Mrs. Lin took Daiyu to Xiangguo Temple, she originally wanted to follow along, but Tong Hui and He Qing are busy now, and there is not much time for the two of them to have time at the same time, she thinks about it, it is more important to have the business of her two 'younger brothers', besides, it is enough to meet over there, and it is enough to watch from a distance.
He Qing and Tong Hui both had smiles in their eyes, obviously very satisfied with the typical 'talented and beautiful women' meeting that they had just seen through the water mirror.
Of course, Zhiyun is also satisfied, Zhou Changqing and Lin Daiyu, regardless of others, just look at their looks, they are also handsome men and beauties together, very compatible, not to mention that Zhou Gong is in a daze in front of Sister Lin from time to time, all kinds of things such as talking and stammering, hitting trees, wrestling, and breaking feet...... It can almost be called both dramatic and comedy, and it is absolutely enjoyable for onlookers.
"Hehe, Zhou Changqing's kid is really good." Mrs. Lin smiled and said, "I always heard Daiyu scream one by one, I thought that person was a little stupid, but I didn't expect that when I was not in front of Daiyu, I was still quite clever and polite......"
Thinking of the child's transformation in front of Daiyu's eyes and when Daiyu was not in front of her, Mrs. Lin, such a gentle woman, couldn't help but smile a little, "The situation of the Zhou family is a little complicated, but Master Zhou has already written to say that after the two children get married, let them go out and live alone, Daiyu has no mother-in-law to suppress, and there is no room girl around her husband to add to the block...... I will write a letter tomorrow and ask the Zhou family to propose marriage, first determine the marriage, and as for the marriage, it can be delayed for another two years. ”
Sister Lin's marriage was decided.
Xue Baochai was depressed, and he couldn't slow down for a long time.
Xue Pan just found out that the person his sister has taken a fancy to, and he already has a wife at home, and he is a young couple, and he loves him very much...... Of course, even if the relationship between husband and wife is not good, it is impossible for his sister to rush to be a concubine.
At first, I didn't know why the only shrewd person in the Xue family was staring at her, and deliberately asked the subordinates to set up almost, through the news, to see if they could get the words out of the mouth of the 'stupid' Xue Pan, where is Xue Pan's opponent who was honed under the hands of the eighth man, and he leaked the bottom without two sentences.
As a result, the eighth child was made to cry and laugh, he wanted to think about everything, and he thought about all kinds of conspiracies and tricks, but he never thought that it was just a little girl who moved her heart.
The old man was also happy, and he bluntly said that his starling brother was attractive, these are all people in their forties, and they just fascinated the little girl who could be a girl and couldn't find the North ......
Rongguo Mansion
The sky is cloudless, and the cicadas outside the window make people feel depressed.
Xue Baochai was wearing a peach-colored dress that was not old, only a small beaded flower was worn on her head, although she was holding a needle and thread in her hand, she didn't see any movement for a long time, although the expression on her face was still the same as before, quiet and serene, but Ying'er, who was sitting on the side, still closed her mouth tightly, and didn't dare to say a word, she always felt that her own young lady was in a very bad mood recently.
Ying'er sighed in her heart, seeing that her young lady had already embroidered a peony flower beyond recognition, she gritted her teeth, and still persuaded: "Miss, Miss Shi is such a big grinning sex, you, don't be like her, your own body matters." ”
Ying'er thought that Shi Xiangyun was upsetting her own young lady.
Two days ago, Jia's mother picked up Shi Xiangyun over, originally Xiangyun and Xue Baochai had a very good relationship, and the sisters and sisters were very affectionate, but this time I don't know who provoked them, Shi Xiangyun didn't have a good face for Baochai as soon as she came, and she said that she could pretend, and the half-new and tattered clothes she wore all day long made her seem to be very virtuous and thrifty.
Although Shi Xiangyun's words were far-fetched, when the people of Jiafu looked at Baochai, they unconsciously showed a little strangeness.
It's no wonder that others are awkward, you know, although the three of Xue's mothers are guests living in Jiafu, but because of Mrs. Wang's relationship, recently Yuanchun Province, she is in the limelight, and Aunt Xue, who is valued by Mrs. Wang, is also rising with the tide, and her daily use is the same as that of the owners of Jiafu. It can be said that Jiafuli has Sanchun and Xue Baochai have all of them, and Mrs. Wang has not forgotten her in terms of clothes and jewelry throughout the year.
Moreover, as the daughter of the imperial merchant Xue family, Baochai's family claims to have millions of family assets and is so rich, she has to dress up like this, when others don't point it out, probably no one will think about it, but when Shi Xiangyun said this, many people disagreed, thinking that Xue Baochai was really good at pretending.
Actually, Ying'er misunderstood, when Shi Xiangyun came, Baochai was saddened because of the eighth master's matter, and it was impossible for Shi Xiangyun to really blatantly put his words on the bright side, the young lady of the big family, even if she was sarcastic, she would naturally beat around the bush, even if she was dissatisfied, she couldn't tear her face on her face.
At that time, Baochai was not in a state, Shi Xiangyun's words did not enter Baochai's heart at all, even if he vaguely felt that Shi Xiangyun seemed to be estranged from him, he ignored it, and when Baochai heard Ying'er's words, he frowned and asked, "What's wrong with Miss Shi?" Didn't you just go home? ”
Ying'er was stunned, opened her mouth and stammered for a long time, unable to say a word.
Baochai just asked casually, and when she saw that the maid was silent, she lowered her head and fell into her own thoughts, thinking of the gentle man, she didn't show it on her face, but her heart hurt greatly...... Could it be that she is destined to really have Jia Baoyu?
Of course, Zhiyun didn't care what Xue Baochai thought, Mrs. Lin talked to her, and then went back to see Daiyu, and by the way, she had to discuss the marriage of the two children with the Zhou family.
Zhiyun nodded, and sent Mrs. Lin out, but she thought that she had just received a letter from Ouyang last night, and that her own boss meant that Fourteen wanted to marry the daughter of the Narbu family as a daughter-in-law, and he was trying to block Fourteen, but he would not refer to this marriage, and his own Honghao seemed to have a good impression of the little girl, and he could really consider it in the future, but the age difference was a bit big, however, Honghao was not in a hurry to get married, and there was no problem after the age of twenty.
Zhiyun shook her head, and suddenly felt that this year's summer was like spring, and she was thinking about all the lifelong events of the children.
Of course, He Qing and Tong Hui didn't know what their master was thinking, they had eaten and drunk enough, rested enough, hurriedly took out their homework, gathered around their teacher, and began to ask the accumulated questions one by one, no way, both of them were busy, and there were not many opportunities to ask their teachers in person.
Recently, Tong Hui and the emperor have been 'hot', he first entered the emperor's eyes as He Qing's junior brother, but now his status in the emperor's heart is vaguely higher than He Qing's, and he is definitely a confidant of Long Live .
There is no way, He Qing is the princess's husband, long live the lord has a lot of things, his sister-in-law can't do it, some of them are more dangerous, and if he doesn't get it right, he will be ruined, and the emperor can't let him do it, after all, he is the royal family's own people.
But Tong Hui is different, his current identity is fatherless, motherless, no wife and children, a lonely family, very capable, but also has shortcomings, that is-'alone', his sex is particularly arrogant, except for a few who can tolerate his bad temper, the Manchu Dynasty does not treat him very well.
However, it is his temper that makes His Majesty the Emperor, who has great ambitions, is bent on reform, wants to rectify the rule of officials, punish corruption, and wants to be a wise monarch through the ages, He admires it very much, has a lot of shortcomings, and is very easy to control, there is no power behind him, all the power comes from the emperor, even if he has two hearts, he can't turn the storm at all, what a good knife?
Last winter, Tong Hui caught a disciple of King Zhongshun, who was also the highest-ranking and most powerful general Qin Tianqin in the army, and did not let go of the matter of deducting military salaries, and when he went to the court, he simply used his hands to tear up the cotton clothes and quilts that had just been sewn and were going to be sent to the army, revealing the contents at once-
That's cotton wool, it's a mess of everything, the rags mixed with grass clippings are okay, and the dirty cotton that is moldy, black, and even bloody, that's disgusting.
Dismantling one set was not finished, Tong Hui dismantled seven or eight sets, and swept the face of King Zhongshun fiercely, seeing that the faces of the ministers present at the time were pale, and the emperor was even more angry, and put Qin Tian in prison on the spot, and later exterminated his family. He also took advantage of this opportunity to reorganize the army on a large scale, and from top to bottom, officers at all levels were exchanged for blood.
At this moment, Tong Hui stood on the opposite side of King Zhongshun, and there were almost as many people in the army who appreciated him as they hated him, but he was also considered famous, and he was completely taken to heart by Shui Rin and cultivated as a confidant.
Zhiyun listened to Tong Hui's report at the beginning, and while watching Ouyang instruct his subordinates to take the opportunity to add people to the army, he couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that this corruption problem is really ancient and modern, and it can't be forbidden......
She is not surprised that there is corruption, but this fake and shoddy product has been counterfeited to the army, which really makes people have nothing to say, and can only mumble with emotion - it turns out that such things are not only in the TV series.
Ouyang Zhi is very open to this, only to say that it is a special case, after all, the court of the world here in the Red Chamber has reached the end, and the wind of corruption is naturally much more serious than that of previous dynasties, just say that the last years of Kangxi are also corrupt enough, Yinzhen has also seen all kinds of means of making money, and deducting military salaries is not a new thing, when the fourteenth was the general king, he did not pay back a lot of money, but even if it is greedy, it is still passable, there is a bottom line, it is impossible to really leave a way for the soldiers to live, after all, the Kangxi Dynasty is going to fight.
