Chapter 743: Offering Prisoners (Part 2) 743
The Xu family became lively.
Xu Lingkuan, Xu Sichen and Xu Sijie all helped to treat the guests in the outer courtyard, while the fifth lady and Ying Niang helped the eleventh mother to entertain the guests in the inner courtyard. Jiang arranged a banquet and assigned the maids to serve tea and water, while the mothers arranged for the maids and women who came over to rest.
, it was not until the dark night that everyone dispersed one after another and regained some peace.
The Eleventh Mother just stood up and leaned on the big pillow by the window. Amber came in with a cup of steaming goat's milk: Madam, the Marquis has left Mr. Wang to talk in the small study. From the looks of it, it won't last for a while.
I'm afraid I won't be able to finish. The fifth wife accompanied the third wife and the eldest mistress and the third mistress to Mrs. Tai's place. She said hello to Mrs. Tai and is about to go back. If you are tired, just rest first. Say
Then, she laughed. Now everyone knows that you are twins. Even though you are a little bit poorly executed, it is not rude.
Just as she was about to wake up, she received the news that Brother Jin had sealed her uncle. Princess Jiangdu, Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Huang San, and others came one after another. She didn't even have time to ask in detail. She had many puzzling things and wanted to ask Amber. Wen
Yan smiled and pointed at Jin Tao beside the Kang: You have been busy all day, so you should take a break. We just want to talk.
Amber responded with a smile, sat on the brocade, picked up the rattan basket containing needlework and thread a few times, helped smooth out a few scattered strands of thread, tied it into a slip knot, and put it into the rattan basket.
Eleven Niang asked Chang Anlai if she had heard any news about him.
At that time, I was only thinking about Brother Jin and didn't bother to ask him.
Chang'an has benefited from our Sixth Young Master this time. Hu Bo smiled and said that he has been following the Sixth Young Master. He was also present when Duoyan was captured. The Marquis of Xining said that he was loyal and specially helped him to ask for merit.
Thousands of households, the emperor has agreed to wait until the prisoners are presented at the Meridian Gate, and the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of War will issue the official document. At that time, we will have to change our name to Chang'an and do thousands of households. Then he smiled and said, even Master Gong will follow suit.
After being married to a hundred households, we can go home and retire in glory. It was our uncle who gave Master Gong such a future. From now on, in Cangzhou, he will also be a person who sticks to his word. Everyone has survived the disaster and has another life.
With the good future ahead, Eleven Niang also became happy.
That's it, that's good." She smiled and said, "If there is something wrong with Chang'an, how can I see Bin Ju?" She added, "Is she okay?"
Even if Bin Ju didn't know it before, Bin Ju must have known it when she asked Hu Bo to tell Wan Daxian to go to Yulin with her.
Sister Binju heard that the Sixth Young Master was missing and there was no news from Chang'an, so she cried all day and night. When Hubodao regained her breath, she went to Ciyuan Temple and knelt down in front of the Bodhisattva, begging the Bodhisattva to protect the Sixth Young Master.
She and Chang'an were safe and sound. When Mrs. Jining found out, she came out to persuade Sister Binju, saying that the Sixth Young Master is a very wealthy man. If Chang'an follows the Sixth Young Master, he will definitely save the day. Sister Binju is more sincere and not only eats
Su also made a wish that as long as the Sixth Young Master and Chang An could be brought back safely, she would donate five hundred taels of sesame oil money to build a dojo for seven or forty-nine days. As she said that, she laughed. She got the news yesterday.
, Sister Binju was so happy that she couldn't even speak. She came in to ask you a question. You haven't woken up yet. She said she wanted to go to Ciyuan Temple to fulfill her vows. So she went to Ciyuan Temple first and came back to you early tomorrow morning.
Greetings, it’s also my mother. Feng Niang can naturally understand Bin Ju’s mood.
She smiled and told Hu Hu: You prepare five hundred taels of silver notes tomorrow. When Bin Ju comes, ask her to take her to Ciyuan Temple for me. It will be used as the money I gave her for the sesame oil.
Amber responded with a smile
Eleven Niang asked about Huang Xiaomao and Liu Erwu.
When Amber heard this, his expression suddenly dimmed.
Eleven Niang’s heart skipped a beat: Why are they two of them alone?
Amber nodded and there was water in the corners of his eyes: He said it was when he reached Qizi Dam. Halfway through the words, he was afraid that Eleven Niang would be sad. He shrugged his nose and said hurriedly, the Marquis has sent Manager Zhao to go there.
Huang Xiaomao and Liu Erwu came to the family, and each gave them a thousand taels of silver. They also said that in the future, if the talented children of the Liu family and the Huang family want to work in the government, they should be contacted first. If there is any embarrassment in the future, they can also come to Bai Bai.
General manager.
Eleven Niang felt sour in her heart and couldn't help but shed tears: From now on, you should take the affairs of the Liu family and the Huang family seriously. If the arrangements in the outer courtyard are not thoughtful, come and tell me.
Amber nodded repeatedly, seeing Eleven Niang's tears wiped and falling, she hurriedly turned around, twisted a warm handkerchief, handed it to Eleven Niang, and said something that might make Eleven Niang happy: When you fell asleep,
The emperor has come
Eleven Niang thought about what she heard when she was half asleep.
It doesn't look like I'm confused.
Hearing that the Sixth Young Master was missing, the Emperor was also anxious. Hu Bo took the handkerchief from the Eleventh Mother's hand and said softly, even incognito for a private visit, and made a special trip to see the Marquis. I heard that you are unconscious and the Marquis is taking care of you, Your Majesty
She didn't care much and went directly to the hall. I heard that she even asked the Marquis to accompany her. She told Eleven Niang the joke about the house. Manager Bai asked the Marquis yesterday about the tea that the emperor had used.
Should I put the chair where I sat on in the ancestral hall?
Eleven Niang couldn't laugh, so she leaned on the pillow in despair.
Amber also suppressed her smile when she saw it, and asked her in a low voice: Madam, let my little maid come in to fetch water. You can freshen up. The weather is very hot. After taking a bath, your body will feel cooler. Eleven Niang nodded, and Amber whispered to the maid.
He came in to serve, and then helped change clothes and make the bed. It wasn't until Eleven Niang took a break that he took the needle and thread and started working by the light of the standing lamp in the hall.
After beating the drum three times, Xu Lingyi came back.
Amber rushed to greet him.
How did Madam wake up from Eleven Niang today? The couple hadn't even had a proper conversation, Xu Lingyi asked Hu Hu.
I had a cup of bird's nest porridge at noon, a bowl of red rice porridge and two vegetable buns in the evening.
As long as you can eat it
Xu Lingyi entered the house.
Eleven Niang lay on her side and fell asleep.
The light shone on her white jade-like face, which gave her a peaceful and tranquil beauty, unlike a few days ago when she would sob in her sleep even after lighting sleeping incense.
He looked at it and felt relieved. He washed up and went to bed quietly. He wanted to hold her in his arms and sleep as usual. But he was afraid of waking her up. When he asked about Brother Jin, he answered truthfully, and she was afraid that she would fall asleep again.
She couldn't sleep, but he didn't answer. When Brother Jin came back, she felt that he had lied to her to think about it. He moved the quilt, unfolded it beside her, and got in gently.
Eleven Niang slept lightly, and she was awakened as soon as Xu Lingyi went to bed.
He hid the news from Brother Jin earlier, and when Brother Jin returned safely, he went to the outer courtyard without saying a word, and now he is back in the house. He and she sleep separately like Chu He Han Jie.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but snorted coldly in her heart and simply ignored him.
The next day, when Eleventh Mother got up, Xu Lingyi got up early, and without waiting for her, he was sitting on the big Kang next to the window in the west room having breakfast. When he saw her coming, he said lightly, "You're awake," and then told her: "You
When you were unconscious, the Queen Mother and the Empress sent their servants to ask questions, and Princess Yong and Princess Shun of Jiangdu also came to see you in person. Now that Brother Jin is fine, you should go and say hello in these places.
That's it
Eleven Niang must have sat on the kang opposite Xu Lingyi.
Leng Xiang hurriedly brought in the bird's nest porridge.
A boy ran in: Lord Marquis, Lord Yong is here
Xu Lingyi was a little surprised. He muttered something so early and nodded towards the boy. He ate the two buns in front of him in three times. He said to Eleven Niang, "eat slowly" and hurried to the outer courtyard.
Eleven Niang hummed and ate her breakfast calmly.
Aunt Wen with a smile on her face and Qiao Lianfang with an indifferent expression came over to greet her.
Our Sixth Young Master is really awesome. Aunt Wen is as good as before and she will give her five points to the Eleventh Mother. I think. Except for those founding fathers from Conglong, those who were granted the title of uncle at the age of fifteen due to their military merits
I'm afraid our Sixth Young Master is the first in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Qiao Lianfang forced a smile and agreed: The sixth young master must be the first...or maybe she is not used to saying such things, her tone is a bit harsh.
Eleven Niang greeted them politely: That’s thanks to Master Pang who was recommended by my uncle, otherwise, how could he have such great boxing and kicking skills.
Aunt Wen smiled like a flower.
Jiang's Yingniang came over with her children.
There were only guests here yesterday, and no one had time to say anything. Today they are all family members, and everyone was chattering and praising Brother Jin, as if it was the Chinese New Year.
A little maid came in and said: Bin Ju is here.
She was Eleven Niang's companion, and she was a decent person in the Xu family. Both the Jiang family and Ying Niang treated her with courtesy. They smiled and congratulated her on the fact that Chang'an was about to have a thousand households, and whether her son would be happy.
Her joy could not be concealed, and she did not want to conceal it. She thanked Eleven Niang for her help. Eleven Niang asked her about Ciyuan Temple. Hu Bo took out the banknote and laughed loudly, which added a bit of joy.
Festive atmosphere.
In the afternoon, the news came again that the prisoner offering at the Meridian Gate was scheduled for the first day of July.
I can see my son soon
Eleven Niang was surprised and happy. She ordered Ah Jin and Sui Feng to clean up the yard, called the needleworkers to make clothes for Brother Jin, and went to the kitchen with Amber, asking the kitchen to prepare some abalone, sea cucumber and other ingredients early.
The banquet was well served by Mrs. Jiang.
Yuan Baozhu's family also looked happy.
Yuan Baozhu couldn't help but tease his wife: After receiving the reward of ten taels of silver from the concubine, he was indeed much more efficient in doing things.
Knowing that after Brother Jin became the uncle, the leading stewards each rewarded him with twenty taels of silver. People like Yuan Baozhu were each rewarded with ten taels.
You, Yuan Baozhu's family glared at her husband when she heard this. I am just happy for the fourth young lady. After saying this, her eyes became a lot gentler. The sixth young master has a title, so he will naturally open the door in the future.
, In this way, Xu Sizhen's title of Marquis of Yongping is almost certain.
Such words cannot be said clearly.
Yuan Baozhu joked with his wife: Don't forget, my wife still has a baby in her belly.
He's younger than Brother Ting. Yuan Baozhu's family said with a smile, when he grows up, our prince will have already stood firm. As he said that, he couldn't help but sigh softly. He didn't expect that it would be such a result.
Very emotional.
Yuan Baozhu said nothing.
Everything is going well for the family. The Xu family brothers have their own futures. The Xu family will be even more prosperous in the future.
