Mrs. Niu knew about the cooperation between the Niu family and the Cheng family, and she was even more polite to the four sisters of the Cheng family, especially to the Xiao sisters, who praised them fiercely.

Xiao Zhanpeng and his son have set off with Qian Li, the general of this crackdown on bandits, and Qian Li is Mrs. Niu's nephew, the young man is full of enthusiasm, and it is the time when he is most thirsty for credit, and the bandits can not only raise military salaries but also make meritorious contributions, and with the help of the Xiao family, it will be a lot smoother, as long as he can return safely, the future is visible to the naked eye.

"I haven't heard of the Xiao family before, but the Tianbao Dart Bureau knows that your grandfather and father are also righteous and heroic people, and there has never been a shortage of heroes in this river and lake."

This praise is very high, and the Xiao family sisters blushed, "If grandpa and dad know that Madame praises them like this, I'm afraid they will laugh in their dreams." ”

"My grandfather always said that a good man should protect his family and defend the country, even if he can't meet injustices, he should draw a sword to help, and he respects General Niu the most, saying that General Niu is a hero in the world."

Mrs. Niu also laughed, thinking that the people of the Xiao family were also interesting, and was saying that General Niu was back.

Although General Niu, who was in the year of fighting, did not have the same great military exploits as his father, General Niu, he was also the number one general of the Xijin Platoon, and when he saw that the coquettish guests came to the house, he said a few words happily, and he wanted to avoid it, and couldn't help but ask the sisters of the Cheng family, if the people of the Cheng family could introduce more grain merchants.

It is best to introduce it directly to them, it is difficult to say how much they can get when the grain is in the hands of the household department, it is not good to ask for food in front of the emperor, but it is still possible to ask for money, they can buy it themselves.

I didn't think that a few girls could give him an answer, but I just wanted to bring this to Uncle Shunyi, but Cheng Sanniang opened her mouth, "I heard that my father said that several families who have contacted have more food in their hands have been introduced to the imperial court, and I heard that it has been negotiated, that is, the delivery of grain will take some days." ”

General Niu didn't expect that a girl also knew the inside story, and asked a few grain merchants about how much grain they could deliver, this Cheng Sanniang shook her head, her father said, the biggest grain merchant in the whole Xijin is the Lin family, but the Lin family was forced to go to Dongshu, and the rest of the grain merchants are not a little worse than the Lin family.

Even if the Lin family fled, those grain merchants carved up the Lin family's territory, and it was not as prosperous as the Lin family at the time.

Along with the Lin family, there are also a few veterans in the hands of the Lin family who are good at farming, as well as the cultivation methods accumulated by the Lin family for generations.

General Niu didn't ask any more questions, avoided the girls, and went to the backyard to talk to General Niu himself.

After dinner at Niu's house, Niu Wanqing pulled the sisters of the Xiao family to try archery, and then tried their skills, until they were tired before they sat down and laughed, the sisters of the Xiao family followed the elders of the family to many places, and they could always make everyone laugh when they talked about interesting things, Mrs. Niu listened from a distance, and said to the mother-in-law on the side: "It is said that the girls of the Cheng family are different, this is not a nonsense, I think the temperament is good." ”

The mother-in-law said with a smile: "I heard that the Cheng family has been doing well recently, and Uncle Shunyi has done his best for the emperor, and his brother's nephew has done his best to help, which is very amazing, and many merchants have gone to the north of the city, and they all say that the north of the city is going to change." ”

Mrs. Niu glanced at a few girls again, "The people of Shunyi Bo are not stupid, they got up as soon as they found their way, and now the treasury is empty, internal and external troubles, and money is asked everywhere, not only Shunyi Bofu, but also the location of the entire merchant will change." ”

What kind of change it will get depends on how the emperor wants to promote Shunyibo.

The mother-in-law said again, "I heard that several families are attacking the idea of the Cheng family's girl, but Mrs. Cheng rejected it on the grounds that she wanted to keep the girl for two more years." ”

"It's just some people who step on the high and praise the low, as long as the Cheng family has a little brain, they won't agree in a panic, the previous one has already suffered a loss."

The mother-in-law smiled, and wanted to say that it was not easy to say that the General's Mansion was not easy, and now it is a big name but life is not very easy, so it is better to let the second son in the mansion marry the girl of the Cheng family and completely trap the Shunyi Uncle's Mansion.

There is also a second son in the general's mansion, he hurt his face during the war, he looked a little scary, and he said a few times that the other girl's daughter did not agree, and the second son of Niu himself rested his mind, and soaked in the barracks every day, and rarely came back.

"I heard that the Yan family has not been smooth so far, to say that the girl from the Cheng family who has returned home is very good, married to the Yan family for a few years, you can also see that she is a good hand at taking care of housework, she looks good, she is beautiful, and she is as old as the second son, if the second son can marry her, it is not bad."

She is Mrs. Niu's nursing mother, and in the early years, she served as a companion to the Niu family, so naturally she didn't have so many scruples about talking in front of Mrs. Niu, and Mrs. Niu was also moved, "I saw it at the banquet before, and she was a good girl." ”

The woman said: "I heard that now she is also the housekeeper girl of Shunyi Uncle's Mansion, and the Shunyi Uncle's Mansion is now being repaired and disaster relief, and how many people come and go in the house every day, and I haven't heard anything wrong, so it can be seen that I have the ability." ”

Mrs. Niu turned her head to look at her, "The nurse has already inquired, right?" ”

The mother-in-law smiled, "The second son's lifelong event will not settle for a day, even the old general is worried about it." ”

Mrs. Niu breathed a sigh of relief, "In the future, we can have more contacts with Shunyi Bofu, and we can see more, even if we want to mention it, we have to be familiar with it, so as not to think that we are taking advantage of the fire to rob and despise other girls." ”

"Mother, I'll send them back."

Niu Wanqing came running with a happy face, "Xiaosi said that he wanted to give me a horse, and the eldest brother got one that I envied, and now I want to have it too." ”

Mrs. Niu got up, "You kid, how can you ask for other people's horses so much, how many horses in the house are not enough for you to ride?" ”

Take the big ones and the small ones, what has become of them?

Those who don't know think that their general's mansion is also an insatiable person.

"Madame is too worried."

Cheng Xiaosi came over with a smile, "It's my cousin who fell in love with the war horse in the house, saying that even if he is old, he has his own proud bones, and I just heard Sister Wanqing say that there are many war horses that have made meritorious contributions, so I thought about using the horse in the house to exchange with Sister Wanqing." ”

This is similar to adopting a retired military dog, just want to take it back to take care of it, who made the two cousins worship the soldier brother so much, love the house and Wu, and the horse has not let go.

In this way, Mrs. Niu didn't say anything, and asked the mother-in-law next to her to go back to her house to get a few pieces of jewelry.

I went to someone's house to eat and play, and I got a gift when I left, and the sisters were a little embarrassed.

Not long after, seeing that the sisters and the girls of the Niu family came back again, and they were still leading an old horse, they didn't say anything when they knew that they wanted to change to a big fat horse, and asked the sisters to take Niu Wanqing to pick it.
