Powerful Minister Buddha-like Sweet Wife - Chapter 79
Early the next morning, Qinghe told Liu Yunan what he had inquired.
“The eldest girl seems to be a different person. In the past few months, she has either gone to the Zhuangzi to plant trees, vegetables, and flowers all day long, or she was looking at the account book in the shop and counting the money. Oh, by the way, she went to buy it herself. I will cook for the uncle myself.”
Hearing what Liu Tangxi was doing, Liu Yunan frowned.
Are these made by people who seem to cross?
He is clearly an ancient person.
Even Liutangxi looked like an ancient person than before.
“Has she been in contact with anyone?” Liu Yunan asked.
Qinghe thought for a while, and said, “No. There were a lot of people who went up to buy fruit in the village before, and the older girls generally didn’t come forward. They all went to the house to make cakes, and it was the lady who was entertaining the ladies and young ladies from various provinces.”
“Can she see the princess over there?”
Qinghe shook his head: “No, not only did I not see, the eldest girl seems to be hiding from the princess’s family.”
“Where is King Jin?”
Qinghe smiled and said, “Speaking of which, there is a connection. The mansion of the palace is next to the house of the wife. I heard that the little princess saw the lady cook delicious and wanted her to cook for her, but the lady refused in person. The princess was very upset. The princess went to his wife’s house afterwards and was later called away by the son.”
Liu Yunan nodded.
“Where is the third prince?”
“The third prince was the one we knew about. The eldest lady saw the third prince at the gate of the palace and didn’t recognize it.”
Hearing this, Liu Yunan felt relieved.
If Liu Tangxi is really reborn, according to ordinary people’s thinking, he will definitely get closer to the future emperor. Judging from Liu Tangxi’s practice, the meaning of her hiding from the prince, rejecting King Jin, and pretending not to know the three princes is obvious.
The prince is not the future victor, nor is the king, but only the third prince.
She had offended the three princes and her before, knowing that they would succeed in the end, so she pretended to have amnesia like this.
It would be easier if Liu Tangxi was not reborn but crossed.
Liu Tangxi changed a core inside, and the grievances between the two of them had nothing to do with her.
Look at what she has done in the past six months, it seems like a stable life with no big ambitions.
As long as Liu Tangxi does not come to provoke her and cause her troubles, she will not provoke her.
So, whether she was born again or crossed, it had nothing to do with her.
“Well, there is no need to stare at the big sister’s side, let people keep an eye on the prince’s side.”
“Yes, girl.”
It was already half a month after Wei Lao San and others received Wei Hanzhou’s letter.
After receiving the letter, Wei Lao San was illiterate and unable to read it.
When Uncle came back in the evening, the family gathered together and listened to the content of the letter.
Hearing Wei Hanzhou said to let them go to the capital, the family fell silent.
Since Wei Hanzhou’s No. 1 scholar was awarded an official position in Beijing, the third Wei family has become different from before.
Bosheng went to study in the county town, and Wei Daniu and Wei Erhu were also looking for work in the county town.
Wei Lao San and Li went to the town to sell candied haws, and Zhang and Zhou occasionally followed.
Adding up all the income of the family, they can earn two hundred wen a day, which is six taels a month.
Coupled with the fact that this year’s apples have sold a lot of money and the harvest from the field, they have already saved more than a hundred taels of silver in their hands.
Thinking of waiting to make more money from selling candied haws, and build a big house next spring.
The capital was too far away from them, so far they didn’t know which way to look to find their way.
Wei Lao San has lived here all his life, and his first reaction was to object.
However, this matter was brought up by his most trusted and promising son, and his son also mentioned other things in the letter.
Wei Hanzhou is very smart and knows Wei Lao San very well, so he focused on the things Wei Lao San cares about.
For example, there are many educated gentlemen in the capital, and the students are smart. If they can get their guidance, they might be able to pass the exam as soon as possible. In the future, there is a great possibility of nomination and jinshi in the examination. But if you wander down in the country, it’s hard to say.
In addition to Bo Sheng, Zhong Xing can also enlighten early. Moreover, he is still in the capital and can give advice to his two nephews.
In addition, there are also female husbands in the capital who can teach Fuyao and Shulan to study.
This is an education problem for children and grandchildren.
He also mentioned that although the price of goods in the capital is high, if you go to work, you will be paid more. Whether it’s cooking food, washing clothes, or going to the pier, you can make more money. This is looking for a living for Wei Daniu and others.
Wei Hanzhou didn’t mention Liu Tangxi’s origin in the slightest. Because he knew that Wei Lao San had known about this a long time ago. Since that time, Wei Lao San has written to him inquiring about it. Similarly, he also knew that Wei Lao San’s temperament knew that he didn’t want to rely on his wife’s house. So without mentioning a word, only how to make a living by relying on both hands.
Every sentence is on the issue that Wei Lao San is most worried about.
Wei Laosan thought about the content of the letter and looked at the sons, daughters-in-law and grandchildren who were sitting aside.
Seeing the excitement on their faces, Wei Lao San couldn’t say anything against it.
“Go back to the house and discuss this matter.”
“Yes, Dad.”
Now that Wei Hanzhou and Liu Tangxi are not at home, their house is given to the little sisters Fuyao and Shulan.
After returning to the house, Shu Lan whispered: “Eldest sister, I think third uncle and third aunt.”
Fu Yao said, “I also miss Auntie San. The meal that Auntie San cooks is delicious, but Niang and Niang can’t make it taste like that.”
“I remember my third aunt said that there are haw cakes and candied haws in the capital. I really want to eat them.”
“I want to eat, too……”
The two swallowed at the same time.
Not only the two little girls, but others are also discussing this matter.
Except for the uncle who sleeps alone.
When Uncle was born, Wei Daniu gave him a bed, and he slept in the study room.
If you say who is the most urgent among these people, it is none other than Wei Daniel and Zhang.
The reason was Bosheng.
“If he can go to the capital, he will have a good future with his third uncle and third aunt.” Zhang said.
Wei Daniu thought so too, but he saw Wei Lao San’s face.
“But I looked at what Dad meant, he didn’t seem to want to go.”
Zhang’s lips pursed and said, “Whether Dad wants to go or not, even if we don’t go, I want Uncle Sheng to go. His third uncle is a champion, and it’s better to be by his side than by our side. .”
This is probably the only time in his life that Zhang wanted to refute his elders.
Wei Da Newton paused and said, “Well, look at it again, I think Dad is a little hesitant, or else I will say it tonight.”
Then, the two said nothing.
Wei Erhu’s side is not as calm as here, the two men are very excited.
“Zhong Xing is now two years old. When she goes to the capital, she will be able to go to school next year. Fuyao is eight years old this year, and will be nine years old after the new year. In a few years, she will have to talk about her husband’s family. She can now read and embroider. , I don’t want her to look for in the village.” Zhou said.
Wei Erhu agreed with Zhou’s words and said: “Well, I took a look, no one in Shili and 8 villages can be worthy of our daughter. I don’t like the people who eat in the ground, we can read books. Those who study are mostly either poor or innocent, like the uncle’s, Fuyao can’t marry such a person.”
Zhou nodded: “Isn’t it? Her third uncle is in official status, so she has to find a son of an official family, or find someone to marry an ordinary person, she has to be from the city.
“Yes, you are absolutely right.”
Speaking of this, Zhou recalled the identity of Liu Tangxi. She knew that Wei Lao San and Li were strictly forbidden to disclose the matter outside, but now she has to mention it again.
Zhou said in a low voice, “Also, her third aunt is a girl from the Hou Mansion. The steward who came to send Hawthorn to the town is more decent than the shopkeeper in the county town. I don’t know how big the family business is. She used to like it the most. Fuyao is now, and I don’t know if she can find Fuyao…”
Wei Erhu was thinking about the future. Hearing this from his daughter-in-law, he immediately retorted: “Don’t have such an idea. You can’t mention it in front of your parents. If your father finds out, you will definitely be angry.”
The expression on Zhou’s face was sullen, saying: “I’m just raising a mouth. I don’t really want Fuyao to find a family with such a good family background. That’s great, it’s just that we will climb high. Fuyao. I just hope she can marry well and have a good life. I heard that Lord Hou is older than our prefect, and I don’t know how old it is…”
For them, the county magistrate is already very big, and the prefect is even more unimaginable for them, not to mention the more powerful Hou Ye.
“I don’t know, I’ve only heard of it in drama before.” Wei Erhu said.
As they were talking, the two raised up to go to the capital to find a job, how much money they could get each month, and so on.
The two said that they fell asleep late.
Wei Laosan and Li’s two are different from their children and grandchildren, they are a little silent.
They are naturally happy to go to the capital to meet their son and to see the legendary capital.
However, as they get older, they are very nostalgic for their homeland. Although he wanted to see his third son, he was not willing to leave the place where he had lived all his life. Even though there are not many good friends and relatives here, the homeland is hard to leave.
“Hey, I haven’t seen it for more than half a year. I think I am the third child. I don’t know how he and his daughter-in-law are in the capital.” Li said first.
Wei Lao San said: “He is the imperial court commander, and the youngest daughter-in-law is also a girl from the Hou Mansion. They are definitely not bad.”
“That’s true, hey.”
Wei Lao San also sighed.
“His father, are we really going to leave home and go to the capital?”
Wei Laosan asked: “Do you want to go?”
“I don’t know, I want to go but I don’t want to go.” Li said, and then turned to ask Wei San, “Old man, do you want to go?”
Wei Lao San was silent for a long time, and said, “Did you see it? My sons want to go.”
Recalling the expressions of his sons just now, Li said, “I saw it.”
“Bo Sheng wants to go too.” Wei Lao San said.
“Um.”
“Go to sleep, think about it again.”
“Hey, good.”
Early the next morning, Wei Daniu and Wei Erhu looked at the dark circles on each other’s faces and laughed.
Afterwards, they took the cart from the neighboring village and went to the county seat with him.
In the next two days, Wei Lao San was not very emotional, and did not mention going to the capital.
Three days later, Wei Laosan finally mentioned it again.
“Da Niu, Erhu, what do you think?”
Wei Daniu and Wei Erhu looked at each other. The two of them were working in the same place, and they talked about it all the time.
“Father, whether we go or not, my son wants Uncle Sheng and his third uncle to go to the capital to study.” Wei Daniu said one thing he most wanted to insist on.
Wei Laosan nodded and looked at Wei Erhu.
Before Wei Erhu could answer, Wei Lao San read his thoughts from his face.
“The second one wants to go too, right?”
Wei Erhu touched his head and said with a smile: “I want Fuyao to marry a good man, and I also want Zhong Xing to find a good husband. I heard that people in the city have been enlightened when they are three years old. We don’t teach such young children here. Sir, there must be one in the capital.”
After finishing speaking, when Wei Ersan didn’t speak, Wei Erhu said, “Father, you have also seen the attitude of the villagers. When we were separated, they thought we were poor, so they could bully us and help the uncle. They. Now that the three younger brothers have become officials, one by one has come to flatter us again. I can’t get used to their virtues. Also, not only the villagers, but also the people from the town and the county are coming, and it is annoying. .”
Wei Laosan rarely criticized his son.
He was silent for a while, and said, “Yeah.”
“Father, what do you mean?” Wei Erhu asked.
After asking, he looked at Li.
Li also looked at Wei Lao San.
Older Wei paused and said, “Then go.”
Hearing this, everyone in the room looked at each other with relaxed smiles on their faces.
“However, even if we go, it will not happen overnight. Since we are leaving, we have to clean up here at home. The capital is no better than other places, and the accommodation, food, and use are not cheap. I thought, let’s take the house before Sell all the things in the world, sell the land, and sell the apple trees and hawthorn trees.”
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
Wei Erhu asked: “Father, don’t you need to sell them all?”
Wei Lao San said, “We should sell it. We decided to go and we will not come back. No one in the village can be trusted. When we are in the capital, no one will tell us how much they sold. It would be better. Sell them all, and we can get some more money. Our apples and hawthorns taste so special, and I must be able to sell them for a lot of money. Uncle Sheng will write to your third uncle in a moment and ask him how much silver is appropriate.”
“Then…then…our family roots are gone.” Wei Daniu said.
“The tree moves to die and the people move to live, it’s the same everywhere. Since you decide to go to the capital, don’t think about being mixed up and come back. If you want to go, you have the determination to go down. Bo Sheng Zhongxing wants to study, Fu Yao Shu Lan wants to marry, and all these need money. Going to the capital is not a simple matter.”
When Wei Da Niu Wei Erhu and Zhang Clan Li clan heard these words of Wei Laosan, they were all silent.
They really didn’t think so far, nor did they have the courage of his father to break the boat.
“Don’t be discouraged, the youngest is in the capital, Bo Sheng Zhong Xing is studying hard, we will have to work hard for a few years.” Wei Lao San said.
Hearing this, Birson stood up quickly.
“Grandpa, I must study hard, like my third uncle, and live up to family expectations.”
Zhong Xing sat in Zhou’s arms, looked at Uncle Sheng stupidly, smiled and waved at him: “Brother, brother.”
Fuyao hurriedly said to Zhongxing, “Hush!”
Zhong Xing looked at Fu Yao and grabbed her hand.
“Sit down. When you get to the capital, don’t count on anyone. The best way is to count on yourself. Don’t bother the third child everywhere. He should help the children when they study, and Shu Xiu should also help him. After all, he I have also received your favor. As for other things, try to have as little trouble as possible. It’s not easy for him to be an official, let’s not drag him down. Let’s not trouble the third wife. The third wife is a girl from the Hou Mansion, with a good background, but it’s herself. She has such a good family background, and she abandoned her third child when she was not found in her natal family. That is her kindness to us. The third official must rely on the Hou Mansion, let alone trouble the third wife. This is all in mind. Living.”
Liu Tangxi was born in the Hou Mansion, and Wei Hanzhou was also an official.
Even ordinary people can think that they will help each other in the same officialdom.
And the title of the Marquis is so high that it must be Wei Hanzhou, who has no family background, depends on the Marquis.
“Yes, father.” Wei Daniu and others responded quickly.
Wei Lao San thought, if the children and grandchildren want to go, then go together. He has to watch a little bit from the sidelines, and can’t let his sons ruin the future of the youngest.
Moreover, he also hopes that several grandchildren can do something in the imperial examination, and also hope that the granddaughter who can read and can embroider will get married well.
At this time, Liu Tangxi was making candied haws at home.
Since making glutinous rice that day, Liu Tangxi has studied new methods. For example, put green bean paste, red bean paste, walnut kernels, etc. into it. Every few days, she will study with Madam Cheng and the others which is better.
As for the sale, she has gradually forgotten about it.
Although the candied haws are delicious, Madam Cheng and others now see candied haws and feel acidic water in their mouths.
After torturing these people, Liu Tangxi began to torturing Wei Hanzhou again, forcing Wei Hanzhou to eat a bunch of candied haws every night and evaluate the taste.
Wei Hanzhou is always “delicious” and “very good”, except for that, there is no other answer.
On this day, Liu Tangxi made a new flavor, made with kumquat. She was about to give it to Wei Hanzhou to eat, and Wei Hanzhou took out a letter from her arms.
“Daddy’s letter.”
As soon as this sentence came out, Liu Tangxi immediately forgot to let Wei Hanzhou taste the candied haws, and asked excitedly: “What did you say, do you want to come?”
“Well, Dad said he will come after a year.”
Liu Tangxi jumped up excitedly, grabbed Wei Hanzhou’s hand, and said, “Great, I will tidy up the house, then tidy up a few houses, and ask dad where they want to live.”
Wei Hanzhou handed the letter to Liu Tangxi, and said, “Don’t bother for the time being, I will talk about this when Dad and them come.”
“Alright.” As he said, Liu Tangxi took the letter, opened it and looked at it.
Seeing Wei Lao San asked Wei Hanzhou how much apple trees and hawthorn trees cost, she said: “Msang Gong, tell your father, you must sell more expensive!”
“Yeah.” Wei Hanzhou nodded in response.
He knew the value of these trees and he would not sell them as ordinary trees. And their fruits are delicious, and people who come to buy them won’t give too low prices.
“I don’t know how much it will sell, Xiang Gong, think about it yourself.” Liu Tangxi said again.
“good.”
“Let’s eat.”
“Yeah.” Liu Tangxi was so happy that he had forgotten what tortured Wei Hanzhou.
Wei Hanzhou glanced at the candied haws in the hands of Grandma Cheng, and then at Grandma Cheng.
Madam Cheng also ate a lot of candied haws, how could she not understand.
Seeing my wife was happily talking about other things with my uncle, she quietly took away the candied haws.
Liu Tangxi really didn’t have the time to think about these things. When she thought that the Li family was about to come, she was so happy that she couldn’t wait to see them right away.
“You urge you in the letter to let the mother and the others come here soon.”
“Um.”
The lady gets along well with her mother and sister-in-law, and Wei Hanzhou is happy in his heart. But when I thought that the relationship between the lady and her mother was better than with him, when she used to be in her hometown, the lady would gather with her mother-in-laws all day long and didn’t pay much attention to him. Wei Hanzhou felt sour even if she didn’t eat candied haws.
As for the urging matter, Wei Hanzhou rarely mentioned in the letter.
I just said let Wei Lao San and the others handle the affairs of the house well, and wait until the weather gets warmer. ,,
