Chapter 1553 - Go, Go!
In the next three days, the repair project of the Luo family was basically completed, and it took on a new look inside and out, although for the official position of a hundred households, such a house is really small, at least it should be two or three times larger, but a small family also has the benefits of a small family, full of warmth, all warmth, and it is this that Luo Chong likes.
Of course, with the promotion of official positions, the Luo family's mansion will definitely continue to change, so let it take its course.
Anyway, Luo's mother and sister-in-law are extremely satisfied with their current lives, and the previous dreams have all become reality in the past few days.
Take your time, it's not good for them to pull too high all at once.
On this day, the town was full of lights, and the mayor arranged for many people to clean the streets, and it was said that a big man came from Guangling City, which is what the earthlings said to be the leader who came up to inspect.
How could Luo Chong not guess that it must have been the mayor's gang who deliberately contributed to this matter, and the fundamental purpose was to calculate himself, dig a pit, and wait for him to jump in.
Sure enough, in the afternoon of the same day, the steward of the town came to inform him, saying that there would be a night banquet at the mayor's house tomorrow night, and Lord Liu, the 'commander of Guanglingwei', would meet with every hundred households in the guard, so as to make preparations in advance for Zhao Qianhu's unconscious.
The military force guarding the land of Guangling City is called 'Wei', and Guangling Town is a 'place' below, simply put, it is the 'Wei Chief' who manages the 'director', and the official position of the Wei Chang is called the commander, and the official position of the director is a thousand households.
In terms of grade, the commander is the fourth grade, the thousand households are the fifth grade, and the commander has two deputies, called the commander Tongzhi, which is from the grade of the fourth grade.
Zhao Qianhu has been unconscious for a few days, and it is also appropriate for Guanglingwei to send someone down to inspect the situation. If Zhao Qianhu's situation is worrying, Guanglingwei's side should have made preparations early and looked for the next Weishou Qianhu in advance.
Commanding Tongzhi Liu to hold a night banquet at the mayor's house, and to meet with every Guangling hundred households on such an informal occasion, there is a signal in this: the next thousand households are likely to be promoted among the seven hundred households in Guangling Town, including Luo Dong, all have a chance.
With such an opportunity in front of him, the other hundred households will definitely do everything possible to curry favor with that Lord Liu, hoping that after he returns, he will be able to say a few kind words for himself in front of the commander.
Only Luo Chong knew in his heart that this was the mayor of the town, and they had set up a trap waiting for him to drill, which was nothing more than trying to provoke himself at the dinner party, make himself embarrassed, and maybe even offend that Lord Liu.
This is likely to have the meaning of killing two birds with one stone, the ambitious Wang Baihu wants to get the position of a thousand households, and his promotion needs to rely on Lord Liu, even if it is not to deal with himself, he will invite Lord Liu to Guangling Town.
Well, it's almost such a thing, Luo Chong only needs one thought to think it through, and of course he won't take it to heart.
Just go, what can you do.
The steward in charge of delivering the message said again that Lord Liu came by while on vacation, and his family (Mrs. and Miss) went along, so it was best for Luo Baihu to bring his wife to the night banquet, so that they would be closer to each other and casual.
"Well, you're still waiting for me in this place. ”
Luo Chong sneered in his heart: Knowing that our child's daughter-in-law had never seen the world, he wanted to use her as a breakthrough to sneer and make himself embarrassed in public, and then his love was out of control and he did something out of line......
At dinner, Luo Chong told Luo Xiu'er about this at the dinner table, and said casually: "Just accompany me on a trip tomorrow night, don't be nervous, whoever provokes you, just scold him, if you are angry, you can bite it, and if you can't do it, you will ...... the soles of your shoes."
"Bastard, you know nonsense all day long!"
Luo's mother was so angry that she knocked the back of his hand with chopsticks, but she was also worried: Luo Xiu'er is like this, if she really goes, isn't it just a dead person.
Luo Xiu'er's slightly dark face couldn't hide the redness at the moment, she couldn't sit still, like a helpless deer and chirped: "I can't, I can't, I really can't go......"
"Why can't you go, they will let you go. ”
Luo Chong held back a wicked smile and said lightly: "Command Tongzhi to take his wife and daughter, take the two of them at once, I don't have children, so let's take my mother and sister-in-law with me." ”
"Don't!"
The sister-in-law was secretly rejoicing, but fortunately it was not she who embarrassed him, and when she heard this, she trembled violently: "Little brother, how can this kind of thing come nonsense, it is related to your future, you can't just talk nonsense, you have to think about it." ”
"Alas!"
Luo's mother sighed: "Born in poverty, it is not as good as the hereditary family of others. ”
Luo Chong glanced at it, and then joked again, it really made them sad, so he let go of his mother and sister-in-law, and only said to Luo Xiuer: "There are some things, escape is not a way, don't you have any ambitions and pursuits?"
"I haven't had time to think about it yet. ”
Luo Xiuer lowered her head and twisted her sleeves with her hands. A few days ago, I was still brushing the toilet and washing the toilet, and in the blink of an eye, I was asked to go to that kind of occasion to make up the official's wife, how is this possible!
"Give you a night to think about it, if you still don't dare to go, I won't force it. ”
Luo Chong picked up the chopsticks: "Okay, now, eat, eat!"
But apart from him, the three ladies have lost their appetite, and their stomachs are full of worries: what can I do?
Xiao Yu Xiaoyan and the two maids standing on the side, but they secretly held back a smile, they used to be servants of the prefect's family, and similar banquets must be taken for granted, of course, they also know that none of the three hostesses of the Luo family can afford that kind of scene.
At night, Luo Xiu'er, who was uneasy, sat in her room, although the clothes in the wardrobe were all brand new and gorgeous, and they had been used for three or four days, she still felt that she was out of place with them.
"Don't you have any ambitions and pursuits of your own?"
Luo Chong's words have been echoing in her ears, and she can vaguely understand the deeper meaning of the words, but it is still ......
Someone knocked on the door, and Xiao Yu asked softly outside, "Young lady, can I go in?"
Luo Xiuer suddenly realized: By the way, Xiaoyu should be able to help them come up with ideas on this kind of thing.
"Whispering. ”
She opened the door herself and welcomed Xiao Yu in.
"Is the young lady worried about what the second young master said?" asked Xiao Yu softly.
"You sit down first. ”
Luo Xiu'er dragged her over the stool, and said softly: "In my place, there is no need to be so polite, you know, before you came, I was also a rough worker." ”
"Young lady, this is not politeness, but the duty that the subordinates must adhere to at all times. ”
Xiao Yu corrected: "No matter how much the master spoils him, he can't get carried away." ”
"Okay. ”
Luo Xiu'er didn't care about these things with her, and hurriedly asked: "You help me think about it, what should I do?"
"I think that the young lady can only count on the second young master in the future, whatever he says, you can do it, this is the best. ”
Xiao Yu has read a lot of books with the former prefect's daughter, and she understands a lot of truths, and at this time, she will help her sort out with straightforward words that ordinary people can understand: "The slave can also hear it, and the second young master also has expectations for you, but in the future, you have to fight for it yourself." ”
"I know that. ”
Luo Xiu'er nodded, and shook her head again: "But first of all, I feel that I am not worthy of him at all, even if I can work hard in the future, but this night banquet in front of me will obviously embarrass him, how can I ...... Alas!"
Xiao Yu smiled and said: "Tomorrow night's night banquet, in fact, it's nothing, the slave will teach you the simplest way, when you see people smiling, you'd rather not say it than talk nonsense." That's all you can learn for now. ”
Luo Xiu'er nodded silently, but said: "Although the second young master didn't say it explicitly, I can also guess that those people are trying to figure out how to beat him, and I don't worry about being ridiculed, but I don't want him to be humiliated because of this." ”
"The young lady is really smart, and she has already seen it. ”
Xiaoyu was also a little surprised, but she didn't expect that she, who didn't know a few big characters, would be able to analyze things to this extent.
Although he is young, because he is by the side of the prefect's daughter, he has heard a lot and seen a lot of officialdom, so he can associate this layer.
On the other hand, she thought it was a little funny, Luo Xiuer was obviously the child daughter-in-law of a hundred adults, and it was not an exaggeration to call him a husband, but she, like a descendant in the family, even called him the second young master.
He organized his words a little in his heart, and said in a small voice: "Anyway, I think you have to go, I would rather let the world laugh than let the second young master down." Obviously, the second young master doesn't care about these things at all, it's purely a game mentality, why are you so entangled. ”
Hearing this, Luo Xiuer nodded lightly, and the veins in her head were basically sorted out.
"Go, young lady. ”
Xiao Yu squatted down, covered her right hand, which was rougher than herself, with both hands, and said softly: "The more grievances you suffer, the more distressed the young master will be." ”
"I see. ”
Luo Xiu'er nodded and said, "Xiaoyu, thank you, don't look at you are only fourteen years old, but you know a lot better than me." ”
"Just for now. ”
Xiao Yu smiled and said: "In the future, as the second young master's official position gets bigger and bigger, the young lady's knowledge will become more and more, and when the time comes, the slave and maid will not dare to talk nonsense in front of you." ”
"Good Sister ......"
Luo Xiu'er held her little hand, and there was no need to say the rest of the words.
Luo Xiuer has an advantage, that is, she has figured out one thing, and she is no longer entangled, but she slept soundly than Luo's mother and sister-in-law this night, and when she woke up the next day, she seemed much more energetic than them.
"Xiu'er, what do you think?"
As soon as they saw her in the courtyard, Luo's mother and sister-in-law immediately dragged her into the hall.
"Go!"
Luo Xiuer's expression was not firm, but it was like a tragic death: "Whatever he says, I will do." ”
"Yes, too. ”
My sister-in-law admired it in her heart, and if she was herself, she would definitely not dare, and she would not dare to go to death.
"Xiu'er ......"
Luo Mu hesitated: "Otherwise, let's not go, we can't watch him make a mistake." ”
In fact, it is also saying: I can't watch you embarrass him.
"Just go!"
Luo Chong's voice sounded at the door: "At their level, do you know what is called true nobility?" Xiu'er, remember in your heart, we are a pair of thieves and thieves, and we are ten thousand times more noble than them!"
Luo Xiu'er's temperament is soft and strong, and at the moment when she nodded silently, her eyes really became firm, and she said in her heart that you don't care, I was born cheap, and I have long been accustomed to the cold eyes of others, so what's so terrible......
