Chapter 259

The carriage was parked in front of the Zhao Mansion in Shijia Hutong. The third cousin and two children got off the carriage and headed straight to Fu Tingyun's inner room.

"I'll bother Sister Jiu." She said in a hurry, "I'll leave the city at dawn tomorrow. Grandma will come back after Qiqi." She also reminded the two children, "You must listen to Aunt Jiu!"

My third cousin's new house is in Hauzi Hutong. Although it is only two quarters of an hour away from Shijia Hutong, it is close to the south of the city. They will leave the city from Fuchengmen in the west of the city tomorrow. If they send their two children over before departure, it will be a long way to go, which will take a long way to go. They may not be able to reach Shilipu before noon, and it will be difficult to rush to the inn to spend the night at night. In this way, safety on the road becomes a big problem.

Chunbing respectfully answered "yes" to her mother, but Lantern Festival couldn't hide her excitement: "Mom, can I play with Yoyo's cousin?"

The two adults laughed when they heard this, and the sadness of parting was suddenly diluted a lot.

The third cousin smiled and said, "It's okay to play, but you can't bully sister Youyou and Brother Xi, Brother Xu. If I let me know, I will never bring you here to play again."

Yuanxiao hurriedly promised: "Mom, I will give in to Sister Youyou and don't compete with her for silk candy."

Everyone laughed again.

The third cousin touched the youngest son's head and told the eldest son: "Take good care of your younger brother, don't be naughty."

Chunbing responded with great confidence.

Fu Tingyun stepped forward and put his shoulders on the two children, smiled and said to the third cousin: "The two are sensible children, don't worry, third sister. If the third brother-in-law wants the children, come and have a look." He said, "When will the third sister set off? I will see you off at that time."

"It's too early." said the third cousin, "You'd better stop tossing. There's no need to talk about these false rituals between us sisters."

Fu Tingyun thought that there were five children at home. If she went to see her third cousin off, she would not come back until the lights were used, so she would be very worried.

She thought for a while and said with a smile: "Okay, then I'll ask Yuwei to send my third sister to me." Then she asked about her guards, "Or what if I want to hire an escort agency, right?"

"I thought so too," said the third cousin laughing, "But Mr. Hao knew that I was going back to Huayin, so he greeted the people from the Five City Military and Masjid. The Five City Military and Masjid sent more than a dozen people to come and would escort me back to Huayin at that time."

"That's good." Fu Tingyun listened and couldn't help but gossip, "Mr. Hao, is it the Lord Hao Jianfeng, who served as a senator in Shaanxi?" When her second cousin was discussing marriage, she was still at home. "I heard that he had a knot in his heart. My uncle tried to leave his door several times but failed to get things done. Why did he have no grudges with his third brother-in-law?"

"I'm not very clear," said the third cousin, "But I heard from your brother-in-law that Hao Jianfeng is not only capable, but also fair and tactful in dealing with people. If something happened to Mr. Shen this time, maybe Mr. Tian Ge would have the opportunity to join the cabinet after he retired when he was old."

Hao Jianfeng and Shen Ge Lao were in the Ministry of Personnel, one chief and the other deputy. The two cooperated well. After a long time, they would not be regarded as a joint. Now the emperor is dissatisfied with Shen Ge Lao, and Shen Ge Lao was forced to retire. Hao Jianfeng, as a senior official of Shen Ge Lao and is also a second-rank official, will probably not have a good life in the future.

Fu Tingyun smiled and said, "He is too lucky."

The third cousin nodded: "It can be seen whether this can enter the cabinet or not depends on how lucky you are." There was a little emotion in his tone.

The two sisters talked for a few words, and the third cousin thought that there were still a lot of trivial matters at home, so he stood up and said goodbye, and rushed back to Hat Hutong.

In front of the hanging flower door, she and her third brother-in-law met.

Seeing that her husband came from the hall of the south room, the third cousin smiled and said hello: "Master, do you have any customers?"

The third brother-in-law's expression was slightly strange when he heard this.

The third cousin looked strange.

The third brother-in-law did not hide it from her and said, "Just Mr. Fu came here just now and asked us if we had reported the death to Shijia Hutong? I also asked when you would set off? I thought of going back to Huayin with you."

The third cousin frowned slightly when he heard this.

The third brother-in-law said: "I said that as soon as we received the letter, you went to Shijia Hutong to report the funeral. As for when you set out to return to Huayin, I still have something to do in the past few days, I may have to wait a few days, and after a specific date is set, we will discuss with him when we will set aside."

The third cousin knew that her husband didn't want to get too close to her and her fifth uncle.

This is also good, so they won't be able to explain something clearly.

However, in this way, she might have arrived in Huayin before her fifth uncle.

The third cousin pondered, "If the fifth uncle asks, we will say that Lord Hao kindly greets the Wucheng Military Police. He thought it was going to set off tomorrow and everything was arranged, so he had to change his life temporarily." Then he instructed his third brother-in-law, "When I leave the city, I will send someone to tell Sixi Hutong - it's Dingyou who is going back to Kyoto, will you bring things, send them, pawn or lock them to the warehouse, and you will also arrange for people to see the house. Even if you want to go with us, it won't be that fast."

This is a good idea.

Don't offend Lord Fu either.

The third brother-in-law smiled and agreed, but a trace of worry flashed between his eyebrows.

The third cousin smiled and said, "Since I have married into the Shen family, I am a member of the Shen family. If you have something to say, you might as well say it bluntly."

The third brother-in-law and his third cousin went to the study room.

"There were some slight troubles between the eldest wife and the eldest wife before, but now the grandmother has gone, there will be some turmoil in Huayin." The third brother-in-law tactfully told his wife, "You go back, first, don't get involved in these things. Second, I also advised my father-in-law and mother-in-law to have uncles and brothers, even if you suffer some losses, don't fight for anything. Be safe and safe and smooth. Then, the money that the Fu family borrowed from our family before, you will give it to your father-in-law with all your power to your father-in-law.

, the mother-in-law helps with the problem, but you also have to explain clearly to the father-in-law and mother-in-law, and let the father-in-law and mother-in-law not have any burden. If they can get away smoothly, it doesn’t matter whether the money is taken back. If they feel wronged in these trivial matters, just tell them, see how good they think, and just take out the money to help them complete it. The most important thing is not to blush over the money and let the neighbors laugh at it."

My third cousin was surprised and happy about her husband's words.

What was shocked was that my husband felt that the uncles in his family would have disputes over their property, and what was happy was that his husband treated him sincerely and had such a large sum of money, so he would not want it if he said he would...

A trace of uneasiness flashed in her eyes and said in a little confused: "Grandma just went there...it shouldn't be so fast, right?"

Although few people know that her husband's insight into things can compare to, it was the place where she gave birth to and raised her, and it was her root, and she still had some luck in her heart.

The third brother-in-law also knows what his wife is thinking.

I don’t know the true face of Mount Lu because I am in this mountain.

It is understandable that the wife is unwilling to believe that her parents' home will become like this.

But for the sake of the overall situation, he could not remind her: "Even if you don't make a fuss now, it is inevitable after the three-year filial piety period."

The third cousin couldn't help but feel silent.

※※※※※

The next day, the third brother-in-law and the seventh brother-in-law sent their third cousin out of Fuchengmen. At noon, they settled in "Yangguan" in Shilipu and had lunch.

When I went downstairs, I met Hao Jianfeng.

He was walking in from the door with a few men wearing cocoon silk and looking like scholars.

The third brother-in-law hurriedly stepped forward to salute him and introduced the seventh brother-in-law to him.

Hao Jianfeng also smiled and introduced the people around him: "...This is Mr. Zhou from the Hanlin Academy, this is Master Zheng from Dali Temple, this is Master Wang from Taipu Temple..." He specially introduced a man in his thirties with square face and silky eyebrows, "This is Lord Jiang, the Left Senator of the Shandong Provincial Governor, this time we will see him off."

He is in his thirties and is in the fourth rank and is in the Shandong Provincial Administration... I am afraid he is not a simple person.

The third brother-in-law's heart was a little tight, but he was still humble and gentle and greeted him with a gentle smile.

When the other people heard that he was the left minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Lord Shen also smiled and greeted him, very enthusiastic. Two people even glanced at the direction where the third cousin stood.

Someone came in outside again.

Everyone couldn't help but look up.

I saw Mr. Fu Wu, who had changed into mourning clothes, walking in panting.

The third cousin, the third brother-in-law, and the seventh brother-in-law were stunned.

Hao Jianfeng looked to the side with a calm face, as if he had not seen Master Fu Wu.

Even if these people do not have to do business in the Ministry of Personnel, they still have to receive the examinations of the Ministry of Personnel every three years. No one does not know Lord Fu, and no one does not know that Hao Jianfeng is not very enthusiastic about this person.

If it were the past, although these people did not greet him enthusiastically, they would not look up and see him, and they would nod to Mr. Fu Wu with a smile. But since the emperor said that Mr. Fu Wu was "unusable", Mr. Fu Wu's career has reached its peak. Now he has returned to his hometown and has no hope of getting back. Who would make Hao Jianfeng unhappy for him?

Everyone imitated Hao Jianfeng's appearance and pretended not to see him, and just smiled and talked to Hao Jianfeng and his third brother-in-law.

The third brother-in-law and the seventh brother-in-law couldn't help but exchanged gazes, and both showed bitter smiles.

Others can ignore Mr. Fu Wu, but they cannot ignore him.

The two of them sued Hao Jianfeng and others, and went forward to salute Mr. Fu Wu.

"Why did you come here?" the third brother-in-law smiled, "Is he here to see Zhujing off? He was so anxious that he didn't have time to say something to you..."

He explained that Mr. Fu Wu's face was as cloudy as if it was about to rain.

He could see clearly what Hao Jianfeng and the others were doing, and he felt like a mirror in his heart.

But now the situation is stronger than him, so what can he do?

Holding the anger in his heart, Mr. Fu Wu said, "Didn't you say you would wait a few days before leaving? I can't wait. In the morning, I sent a servant to tell you, who knew you had left the city early in the morning. I was thinking that our two families would go together, and maybe they would meet them at Shilipu, but they didn't expect to meet them."

I'm afraid I heard that they rushed over after leaving the city early in the morning?

The third brother-in-law smiled and looked behind him: "Why are you not seeing your good brother?"

Jiezhi is the name of Fu Tingyun's brother Fu Tingyi.

Master Fu Wu wanted to speak but stopped.

He knew that Fu Tingyun was unwilling to walk with him, and he kept watching the movements of Hat Hulu.

When the servant ran back this morning, he felt that this must be Fu Tingyun's idea. He had to leave Fu Tingyun to pack his things at home and rushed over first.

When the third brother-in-law saw it, he became more sure of his thoughts.

But Master Fu Wu looked behind him, his eyes fell on his third cousin and said, "Where is Quanhui? Why didn't you be with you?"
