Chapter 311: Joining the Army
"Seriously ill so soon?"
"The slave maid kept staring at the opposite door, and when it was almost dawn, the tall guard beside Mrs. Tian hurriedly went out, and in about two quarters of an hour, he went in with Ji Langzhong from Renhetang on West Street, and he didn't come out yet!"
Zhang Guangxian and Xie Chunliu glanced at each other, and the smile on their faces couldn't be hidden.
"It's still Luo Daochang's clever means, and it is not in vain that we are waiting for this time."
Zhang Guangxian said: "The Tian family is now supported by only one woman. Now that I'm sick, I can't make a mess of porridge. Now is the best time for us to take over the Tian family's business. β
And the main courtyard of the Tian family at this moment.
After arranging the affairs of Kyoto, Tian Shizhong, the second room of the Tian family, who rushed back from Kyoto, was sitting in front of the bed, looking at his wife helplessly.
"Madame wants to deal with the Tian family, why pretend to be sick? Just make a move for your husband! β
"This method was discussed with Yixin's girl, only when I am sick and the Zhang family doesn't know that you are coming back, will I get carried away. Dealing with the Zhang family at this time can minimize the loss of the Tian family. β
Listening to his wife talk about Miss Su, with a proud face, Tian Shizhong was a little curious about Miss Su, who was not yet thirteen years old.
"Besides, Qingyao's marriage is approaching, although I am pretending to be sick, I also have a lot of things to do, and I can't be idle."
"My husband has not been in Dengfeng County for a long time, and some of the family are Mrs. Dots, thank you for your hard work."
"You're in Kyoto, it's more difficult than me in Dengfeng County, and I haven't heard you complain."
Tian Shizhong held his wife in his arms: "It's all for this family, the family is good, and I don't feel tired of doing anything for my husband." Fortunately, if you wrote to me, I arranged for the matter in my hand to come back, otherwise my daughter's marriage would not be in my father's absence, wouldn't it make the Fu family look down on Qingyao! β
Both husband and wife think about each other's hard work and each other's goodness.
In this way, no matter how hard it is, it feels worth it.
"Don't worry, Brother Yan came to me privately a few days ago, and promised that after getting married, he would take Qingyao to Beijing to participate in the scientific examination."
Tian Shizhong nodded: "Is this good?" I just don't know if Mrs. Fu will agree. β
Tian Huilan thought to herself, before she changed it, she would definitely not agree.
Now she is in a loss, and she has lost face in front of her son, and if she wants to save her image in her son's heart, she has to agree if she doesn't agree.
Here the Tian family took action against the Zhang family.
Everything went well.
But at this time, Gu Qingjue received a letter from Zeng Shengji.
"The master said he wanted to join the army."
"Join the army?"
Su Yixin said: "How can you be so decent, you want to join the army at this time?" β
"In February, Western Xia sent troops and defeated our dynasty, Zhao Jin knew the identity of the master, and the two were also in contact on weekdays, so they must know. And the last time I went back, the master also knew that the Western Xia sent people to the academy to show off his might, he was once stationed in Fengzhou to fight against the Western Xia, and now this situation must be to contribute to the imperial court. β
The Zeng family has been loyal for generations, and this kind of patriotic feeling is engraved in the bones.
He wants to join the army, more because he wants to contribute his part and protect the people.
"The affairs of the Zeng family, the official family has no longer pursued it, but if it is as Qiu Hong said, this matter is a partisan dispute, and Sun Chong will be in trouble, and the master will use his identity to appear in Sun Chong's field of vision, and he will be worried about his life."
Gu Qingjue nodded.
"The master's letter is to inform us that he has asked Zhao Jin to get him a new identity."
Su Yixin: "In this way, Master Zeng has already decided!" β
The new identity was ready, and it seemed that it had been well thought out, and they could only respect Master Zeng's decision.
Master Zeng set off for Fengzhou on June 20, and Qiu Hong was still in Wangjia Village for the time being.
Zeng Shengji used his new identity, which coincided with the recruitment of troops in Fengzhou, and as soon as he entered the barracks, he worked overtime to practice.
In July, Zeng Shengji relied on his own ability to emerge from the recruits.
coincided with the arrival of heavy troops in Western Xia, the commander ordered soldiers and horses, Zeng Shengji was selected, and went to Linfu Erzhou with the coach.
And the Zhang family, taking advantage of the time when Mrs. Tian was "seriously ill", stepped up the encroachment on the Tian family's business, and the shops in the nearby counties and towns of Dengfeng have been swallowed up by the Zhang family.
The Zhang family, who got the sweetness, no longer restrained this time, and spent a lot of money to expand the faΓ§ade, and the chefs who made desserts, the guys, and the materials needed for desserts were all purchased in large quantities.
Get ready for a big fight.
Not only that, but he also reached out to Kyoto in a vain attempt to get a piece of the pie in Kyoto.
Just when the Zhang family made a bold move and wanted to show their ambitions.
The Tian family, which had been silent for a long time, had news.
Starting June 15, a new product will be released every day, and the first 50 customers who come to buy can enjoy half-price benefits until August.
Xie Chunliu came back from outside, got the news, stood at the door and snorted coldly: "The Tian family is seeing that our Zhang family's business is so good now, they can't sit still." As for her 'illness', that is, in the past two days, she is about to die, and she is still thinking about making money! β
After Xie Chunliu finished speaking, he went in proudly.
During this time, the business was unusually smooth, and even the number of times I brought my lord to her yard increased, and today I came to her yard again.
She felt like she was back in her newlywed days.
But the next day, when she woke up with a spring face, the first news waiting for her was that Mrs. Tian's illness was cured!
"Okay?"
Xie Chunliu's shocked clothes didn't have time to put on, and he came out of the curtain to look at the maid who came to report the news: "Tian Huilan hasn't shown up for a month, it's not that she is dying of illness, why is it suddenly better, is this news accurate?" β
"The slave maid has been staring at the Tian family, and just now, I saw that the second lady Tian had a very good complexion and went out with Master Tian."
Zhang Xianguang, who was lying on the bed, heard the maid's words, sat up in surprise, and scolded Xie Chunliu, who had not yet come back to his senses: "Xie Chunliu, can you be reliable, saying that the other party is sick and dying, and now he is jumping out of the house, and when did the second master of the Tian family return to Dengfeng County, why didn't you notice it at all?" β
Xie Chunliu's eyes were red when he was scolded.
It's like yesterday's night was a joke.
She has done so much in exchange for her husband's different treatment, but with one negligence, everything goes back to the past.
Zhang Xianguang didn't care that his subordinates were still there, put on his clothes and left angrily.
Xie Chunliu burst into tears, and he was wronged.
He didn't want to think about it, she couldn't be Langzhong, if Tian Huilan was on guard against their Zhang family early in the morning, when she went to visit, she must have pretended, and it was not understandable that she was hoodwinked.
