Chapter 348: Leaving Beijing
Liu Ruolan comforted a few words, but she was just drunk, and let him rest for an hour or two.
"Your second brother and third brother are going back to their hometown next month."
Xie Rongzhao looked shocked: "Good and decent, why do you want to go back to your hometown now?" But what happened? ”
Chen Jiaojiao quipped: "We Zhaozhao have been focusing on our marriage for the past few months, where can we take care of the two brothers?" ”
Xie Rongzhao glared: "Sister-in-law! ”
Chen Jiaojiao giggled, and Xie Rongzhao turned his head angrily and didn't speak.
Liu Ruolan also smiled and glared at the two of them: "Okay, don't tease her anymore, your second brother and third brother's family affairs have been decided, and they have to go back to get married." ”
Xie Rongzhao was puzzled: "The girl from Gaoyang County?" ”
"Well, one is the granddaughter of Han Juren in Gaoyang County, and the other is the daughter of Xiucai. Both of them are scholarly families, and they are worthy of your two elder brothers. ”
"A-Niang, is their family affair decided by the third aunt, or is it someone else?"
Liu Ruolan knew what she was worried about: "Naturally, your aunt is in charge." Your second brother and third brother are not young anymore, and they can't be delayed any longer. After going back to get married this time, I can concentrate on studying. ”
"Then the second brother and the third brother will come back in the future?"
"Not in three or five years. Your father has arranged everything. I heard what he meant that next year, the two of them will take the exam, and the probability of winning the show is very high, and then they will study hard for a few more years and strive to win the exam as soon as possible. But I think Brother Ye doesn't seem to want to take the exam too much, saying that after winning the show, he wants to get an errand. ”
Everyone has their own ambitions, and naturally they can't force them.
And it's true that reading is not just hard work.
For example, the eldest brother and Cheng Sanlang, one of these two is talented and the other is not talented, it is indeed a difference.
"A-Niang should have told me earlier, and I can also prepare some gifts for the two sisters-in-law who have not met."
"It's not too late to tell you."
Xie Rongzhao was about to say something, but he glanced at his sister-in-law, and swallowed the words that came to his mouth.
Chen Jiaojiao talked here for a while, and then left first under the pretext of taking care of the child.
In fact, it is to give their mother and daughter a chance to be alone.
"How is San Lang treating you?"
Xie Rongzhao blushed and nodded: "It's just that I had some pain the first night, and he treated me very well." ”
"That's good, as long as you little couple live a good life, we will be relieved."
"Auntie."
Liu Ruolan could tell that she had something to ask, but she was embarrassed, "Huh? ”
Xie Rongzhao sat down next to her again and whispered some of Cheng Sanlang's actions.
Liu Ruolan was stunned for a moment, and then reacted and laughed several times.
"This San Lang is really obsessed!"
Xie Rongzhao hugged her arm and said coquettishly: "Auntie! ”
"Don't be afraid, your father specifically approached San Lang before, saying that you are still young, although you are sixteen, but your body bones still have to be recuperated, and it is not good for the woman to be pregnant too early. Saburo must have taken this matter to heart, so he took the time to find those things. You're really a fool! ”
Xie Rongzhao pouted: "I'm not stupid!" ”
"That's just right, and it also saves you from taking the avoidance soup."
"Doesn't A-Niang want me to get pregnant earlier?"
Liu Ruolan sighed and said: "I only learned about it in the past few years, and some good doctors in Beijing know this, if a woman's body bones are not well, she should not be pregnant." Normally, sixteen or seventeen years old is fine, but your father is not at ease. The main reason is that you suffered a crime when you were young, and we are worried that you are weak, so he will specifically ask San Lang to mention it. ”
Xie Rongzhao's heart was full of emotion, and sure enough, at any time, the people who love you the most will always be your parents.
"Thank you, Auntie, you have to tell my father when you go back, I remember him well, even if I get married, I will come to see him from time to time, and I will also think about him."
Liu Ruolan touched her head with satisfaction: "With your words, your father will be happy." ”
The two of them returned to Cheng's mansion in the evening, Cheng Jingzhou had no energy all the way, and he had to rub his temples from time to time, obviously really drunk.
"You don't have to be so honest in the future, my four brothers and a younger brother, plus my father, you alone can't fight them no matter how much you drink."
"Well, I'm glad today. Besides, I married my father-in-law's palm treasure, and I had to let his old man vent his dissatisfaction. ”
Cheng Jingzhou held her hand with a sincere expression, which made Xie Rongzhao feel even more good to him in the future.
"Father and mother are leaving Beijing soon, what should we prepare for them to take home? Is it a specialty of the capital, or something else? ”
"You just have to look at the preparation. In the future, there will be a big brother in the family, so let's live our own little life with peace of mind. ”
"Hmm."
Cheng's father and Cheng's mother have lived in the capital for a short time, and it has been half a year in a blink of an eye.
Sending them out of the city gate, Xie Rongzhao still couldn't hold back, hugged Mrs. Cheng and cried.
"Good boy, we will meet again in the future, we are not by your side, when there is a big decision, we must consult your parents, don't make your own decisions."
"Well, my mother and father should also cherish them along the way, and when I get home, I will write to you, and Brother Jingzhou and I will write more letters to you."
"Okay."
Cheng Jingzhou got married this time, in fact, he didn't spend much money in the Cheng family, after all, the Cheng family has a lot of children, and they are all used routinely, but considering that Cheng Jingzhou is an official in Beijing and is married to the daughter of a high-ranking official, this flower is naturally more than a few brothers, which is also acquiesced by everyone, after all, Cheng Jingzhou will have to rely on Cheng Jingzhou to help in the future.
Mrs. Cheng was originally from a good background, and she naturally had a lot of good things in her hands.
This time she went to the capital, and Mrs. Cheng just brought her own silver for 15,000 taels, which even Cheng Xuezheng didn't know.
In addition, they also brought a lot of gold, silver and jade along the way, if it weren't for the fear of bumping on the road, Mrs. Cheng would like to bring more.
Mrs. Cheng's marrying fields and shops are basically in Gaoyang County and Fucheng, these things can't be given directly, but they can't be sold, so Mrs. Cheng took the lead and transferred several shops and a Zhuangzi under her name to Cheng Jingzhou's name, and also learned from Xie Xiuwen, and sent people to the capital twice a year to send money.
These are Mrs. Cheng's own family backgrounds, and the Cheng family can't care about how she spends them, they can only watch their greed.
Before Mrs. Cheng left, she left 1,000 taels of silver for Cheng Jingzhou, so that he could use it for some relationship between the court and the central government.
Cheng Jingzhou originally felt that his mother treated him as always, and when he was moved in his heart, Xie Rongzhao's words almost made Cheng Jingzhou depressed.
"Mother is so nice! Before my mother left, she left 5,000 taels of silver tickets for me, so that we can honor my father and mother in the future, and after my father no longer serves as a schoolmaster, we will take them to live with them and fulfill our filial piety. ”
Cheng Jingzhou: ...... Five thousand taels? (End of chapter)
