Chapter 167: Wind bones, entanglement
How kind of style is Zeng Yu? Are they those who sell their daughters for glory?
When Shi Zhengxue asked the media to ask him to ask for marriage, Zeng Yu not only knocked the matchmaker out of the house, but also went to the household department and scolded Shi Zhengxue in public.
Subsequently, Zeng Yu immediately resigned, and married Zeng Xuezhi to Shezhou as quickly as possible.
Shezhou Sima and Lin Xianjun are the eldest sons of Zeng Yu Shiyou. Zeng Yu had seen each other, so he took Zeng Xuezhi directly to Shezhou and proposed to his poetry friend.
The two sides also hit it off.
Lin Xianjun and Zeng Xuezhi are also in love with each other and love husband and wife.
When Yao Cong gave Di Ying "horn" these things, he was very sorry for Zeng Xuezhi.
He praised Zeng Xuezhi for her beauty, kindness, gentleness and virtuousness, and she could have not had to marry so hard.
Because no matter what, the girl who marries far away will be more or less unsatisfactory.
Not to mention anything else, just say that if you are wronged, there is really no place to cry.
But no matter how Yao Cong persuaded Zeng Yu at that time, the other party didn't listen.
Later, Zeng Yu did regret it.
Because Zeng Xuezhi never gave birth to a child, Zeng Yu felt ashamed of his old friend.
When Yao Cong mentioned Zeng Yu's guilt, he also turned his mouth to the sky.
After that, Yao Cong and Zeng Yu also faded inexplicably.
Until Yao Cong left the capital, Zeng Yu did not come forward to send him off, and he didn't even send someone to send him a simple send-off gift.
Yao Cong himself can see it freely. He and Zeng Yu were friends for the past few years, and the two of them were more casual personalities.
And with the passage of time, the increase of experience, the whipping of officialdom, etc., it is inevitable that there will be some disagreements.
It's also reasonable to drift away.
In October last year, Zeng Yu, who had resigned, disappeared into the capital with his whole family. Say yes: I moved home.
Di Ying remembered these things mentioned by Yao Cong, so when she learned that the little woman who wanted to adopt Erniu was surnamed Zeng and Mrs. Lin, she had already guessed the general clue.
But you can guess who Mrs. Lin is, and the rest is unknown.
That's why he didn't answer Nie Bo's words.
But Di Ying's heart has always been a little doubtful.
Zeng Xuezhi is obviously in love with her husband, why is her eyebrows sad? Liver Qi stagnation? Could it be that the rumors are misleading? Is it really not good?
Otherwise, only one of them will come to such a big event as adopting a child? Why can't her husband see anyone?
But speaking of which, after all, those family affairs only belong to others, and Mrs. Lin is a woman, so Di Ying is inconvenient to ask.
After taking a bath and changing into a robe, Di Ying examined Erniu again, and after making sure that he was fine, he left a prescription for later recuperation and fifty taels of silver to donate to the "Salesian Division", and left.
The guards also quietly left some silver, which Director Min found out later.
And neither she nor Zeng Xuezhi noticed: the signature at the bottom of the prescription - Di Huaijie.
Of course, they can't be blamed for that.
In fact, in order to prevent leaking his whereabouts, Di Ying often left a prescription and wrote his name in a way that was difficult to read.
Zeng Xuezhi put away the prescription, waited until Erniu woke up, fed the other party a bowl of porridge, and then said goodbye and went back to his Lin Mansion.
In the past, she always felt that the mansion was small, and when she walked around the mansion with her husband every night, she finished a circle in a short time.
Now, I feel so big, so big that I can't seem to go any way.
Also empty. Compared with the crowded and lively in the past, now the empty people are panicked and uncomfortable.
But someone else came to help her fill the void in the house.
Before he walked to the main house, Zeng Xuezhi saw that there were a lot of things piled up outside the courtyard of the main house.
Twenty pots of novel and delicate flowers, each with one appearance; Twenty sets of head and face makeup baskets, twenty boxes of precious medicinal herbs, twenty fine brocade silks, silk satin, a plate of jade ornaments, a plate of gold ornaments, and a bunch of antique ornaments.
Everything is worth a lot of money.
Zeng Xuezhi glanced at it, then frowned lightly and asked the old housekeeper: "It was sent by Lord Thorn Shi again?" ”
The old housekeeper also frowned, nodded and responded: "The old slave doesn't accept it, but those government soldiers carried these, forced into the house gate, and put them here." Madame, it's not a problem to go on like this. If it spreads, it will be very harmful to your reputation. ”
Zeng Xuezhi glanced at those things again, thought about it and said, "In this way, you arrange for someone to take these things to the pawnshop and exchange them for silver."
After that, he used the silver to buy some bedding, clothes, the four treasures of the study, ordinary cloth, etc., and sent them to the 'Salesian Division' with great fanfare.
Remember to buy more food and send it with you. Let's just say that Lord Thorn Shi cared for the 'Salesian Division' and specially donated it. ”
When the old butler heard this, his eyebrows immediately fluttered.
Seeing Zeng Xuezhi's elegant face, there was a faint smile.
When the old housekeeper went to Zhang Luo, Zeng Xuezhi limped and went to another courtyard.
In fact, this is not the first time such a thing has happened.
That assassin Huang Ronggui, after Lin Xianjun disappeared, often sent all kinds of things to Lin Mansion, and always thought about inviting Zeng Xuezhi to drink tea and dinner, or listen to the opera cruise.
What it is said is that the subordinates are missing, and their families should be taken care of by the government.
also said: I was afraid that Zeng Xuezhi would be depressed in the house alone, so in order to avoid injury, I persuaded him to go out for a walk.
In short: no matter how you look at it, there doesn't seem to be a problem.
But Zeng Xuezhi knew in his heart: Huang Ronggui didn't have any good intentions.
She also tried to resist openly, and even let go of her shame and strongly expressed her resistance. But the other party still didn't give up.
Zeng Xuezhi was really entangled by it, and he was so bothered that he couldn't bear it. I can only buy more skilled subordinates, and follow me in and out.
wants to adopt a child, but also to avoid Huang Ronggui's "hospitality".
But this is not a long-term plan after all, if Huang Ronggui insists on coming nonsense, Zeng Xuezhi doesn't know how he can hide.
Fortunately, there is still him.
In that courtyard, Dai Zhongming, who was burly and had thick eyebrows and big eyes, was wielding a nine-ring broadsword and practicing vigorously.
He is a man of the rivers and lakes.
During the Chinese New Year, Zeng Xuezhi went to the temple to offer incense, encountered mountain bandits, and was fortunately rescued by Dai Zhongming.
Zeng Xuezhi saw that he was alone, and he also heard that he had no way to settle down, so he invited him to live in the Lin Mansion and protect himself.
Children of rivers and lakes, informal.
When Dai Zhongming learned that Zeng Xuezhi's husband was missing and he was targeted by the assassination history, he slapped his thigh and carried the nine-ring knife and lived in the Lin Mansion.
Huang Ronggui came twice at night, but was scared away by Dai Zhongming.
Zeng Xuezhi went out today and only brought an ordinary nursing home, but Dai Zhongming did not follow.
"Madame went to the 'Salesian Division' today, will I get anything?"
