Chapter 281 Loyalty (Part 2)
Chapter 281: Loyalty (Part 2)
In the past, Wei Hei was the one who sent a letter from Wangjiazhuang. He was more involved and was afraid that others would do things inappropriately when they were young. Wei Hei's master was a man from Qi and Lu, so he was also very close to Wang Lusheng, a straightforward man.
Although they have been less than a month since they last met, the relationship between the two families is different and they are getting closer.
Before the New Year, Zheng Hu Rizhao delivered New Year's goods and carefully inquired about Wang Quantai's character.
Although Wang Quantai is not a child of the Wang family's legitimate branch and his family is not wealthy, after inquiring, it is good to act like a person. He is the eldest son, and he has an old lady in his family who lives with his brothers. He also has a girl who married to Dengzhou last year. He had a marriage a few years ago, but the other girl disappeared before he could wait for the other girl. Then he found two, but there was no suitable one, so the marriage was delayed.
Even Wang Quantai's brother, Zheng Hu also found an opportunity to meet him. He was very honest and honest. He felt relieved and mentioned Wang Quantai's proposal to marry Wang Lusheng.
The Zheng family in Jinsha Town, Nantong Prefecture was one of the aristocratic families that had picked pearls in the south earlier, but later declined. Wang Lusheng did not expect that Zheng Hu was actually a child of the Zheng family, and was also surprised. He remembered the prescription for raising pearls and asked in confusion: "Is that prescription... belonging to the Zheng family?"
Zheng Hu shook his head quickly and said, "This, Tiger dares not be distorted. That prescription belongs to my master. It seems to be a book that beats foreigners. It is said that foreigners have this already."
Wang Lusheng has been raising pearls in the pearl farm in the past two years. He knew that this was not a farmer. He had harvested it back then, and it would take at least three years to get it. This year, he picked the first pearls at the end of October.
When Zheng Hu mentioned that the prescription was made by Cao Yong, he calculated the year when Jiangnan beads were launched. It was like the 48th year of Kangxi, plus the three years of raising beads, which was seven or eight years ago.
Thinking about Cao Yong's age, he couldn't help but sigh: "After all, I'm a child, and I can still know these in Western books. If I don't know, looking at the many taboos on the prescription, who would have thought that this prescription was made by an outsider?"
Zheng Hu has been to Cao's family for many years and is Cao Yuan's son-in-law. He knows more about Cao Yong. After hearing Wang Lusheng's words, he was secretly proud of what the pearl prescription is. Even the tribute teas in the southeast are also his credit. But he is not a man with a tongue, and he knows that some of them are not easy to show off, so he just smiles silly.
Although the engagement matter still needs to be waited for Wang Quantai, Zheng Hu and Wang Lusheng knew that the matter was almost settled.
Wei Hei came to Rizhao to deliver a letter, and Wang Lusheng naturally treated him warmly.
Because it was a message, it was difficult to beat outsiders to spread it, Wang Lusheng called his adopted son Guo Quanyou and gave him a detailed instruction and sent him to Mengyin.
In Rizhao, Wei Hei was left to drink and eat. Because it was difficult to fight in the city, and he was afraid of attracting attention from interested people, Wang Lusheng sent someone to the flower building to pick up a few sisters with good colors to sing and accompany the guests.
Both of them are cheerful men, and they are not a few years apart. They are both straightforward people and speak very much.
During the meal, Wang Lushengfang sent his two sisters to help Wei Hei to the guest room for a rest.
Although he looked at the other two sisters, he was a family after all, and he was the head of the family. He always had to avoid it. After touching a few hands, he asked the butler to send it back, and he settled it in Wu's house without mentioning it.
In the Yimeng Mountains hundreds of miles away, Mr. Qin and Mr. Zhao had not yet returned. Mrs. Guan put down his hair, wore a middle-clothing, sat on the kang, looking at Mrs. Luo who was taking off his makeup in front of the dressing table in a daze. She was thinking about whether to persuade her to avoid the trouble of being exposed and fearing that she would be worried about her life.
Thinking of what happened yesterday morning, she couldn't help but blush and couldn't think of how the very ruled Luo's family was so unrestrained.
Suddenly, when she remembered the food box that was landed in the corridor, she couldn't help but change her face. She looked at Luo with a little uneasy and saw that she had no strange colors. After all, it was a matter of private affairs, and Luo should not be able to speak, so she just pretended to be confused. Guan thought about this and then calmed down.
Tonight, Luo took the initiative to come and rest. He said that Boss Qin was not here, so she was afraid of taking the child with her own child, so she begged Guan to come here to settle it, and asked Xinghua to take Guan's two children to her yard and accompany her maid and son.
After leaving the Chaihuan, Luo only wore a small dress and came to the kang with a smile. Seeing that Guan was looking at him, he asked in a sweet voice: "What are you looking at? But the face has not been wiped clean?" As he spoke, he reached out to his face and the captives.
Although Luo was called Guan in this way earlier, he changed his words after being told by Boss Qin.
Now, when Mrs. Luo heard her screaming, she was a little uneasy and said, "Sister-in-law, I don't dare to be my sister. Change my words quickly, so as not to blame me for not understanding the rules in the future."
"This is our sister's private words in the boudoir, but if you don't call them in front of them, what are you afraid of? In Xiuxiu's heart, she just thinks that her sister is like a real sister..." At this point, Luo's eyes turned red and leaned on Guan's arm: "Xiuxiu is different from her sister, and she does not have any brothers in the mountains, and she is just a couple halfway through the journey with the old man. She has been in the mountains for the past two years and has been taking care of her sister, so she is better."
Guan was sad and couldn't help but whisper: "Don't our women's family have to endure this hardship? If you really think I'm a sister, you must persuade me. Big brother... Xiaobao... Alas! Let's live a good life!"
After hearing this, Luo knew the meaning of her words, and was ashamed. He tried hard to penetrate Guan's arms, and his shoulders were shrugging, but he was crying: "Good sister, the girl is also a good wife, but if she lets her husband and wife with her enemies, she can't live." At the end of the conversation, she was already gritting her teeth.
This was the first time Guan heard this allusion, and he was shocked and asked, "What's going on? Isn't my brother so harsh?"
Luo grabbed Guan's clothes and cried and said, "Does my sister not believe in the girl? Is it because the girl saw it with her own eyes? Is it still possible to have a fake one? In October of that year, the girl was about to celebrate her father's burning anniversary. Our boss led a donkey and sent me back to her father's house to visit her father's grave. On the way, he happened to meet him and the second master and went out into the mountain. When he saw the girl, he looked at her with a girl, and he kept looking at her. Our boss was a anxious temper. He couldn't help but shouted a few times, and then he beat us to death..." He cried at this point.
Guan couldn't help but feel moved. He vaguely remembered that when Luo first came, he was wearing a mourning clothes and thought he was a little widow with no man. Unexpectedly, it was because of this, but it was hard to persuade him.
Luo said in a crying cry: "The girl is really afraid of him, and she can't sleep well when she is placed with him. She can always dream that our head of the family is glaring at me with blood..."
When Guan saw this, he couldn't bear it. He sat up and took a veil to wipe his tears. He wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know how to talk about it. It would be fine if Xiaobao was the boss Qin's flesh and blood. After all, there was a child tied in the middle, and no matter how big the hatred was, it would be resolved. Just listening to the two of them talking yesterday, Xiaobao's biological father was Liu Guotai.
Luo let her cry, lamented, and said, "Good sister, although you don't tell me, the second master's business... My sister also despises the girl... I regard her as a slut... I see her as a slut..." In the end, she was already low and her head was already hanging onto her chest.
People are so strange. Sometimes even if they don’t do bad things, they will feel guilty. This is true for Guan. Even if she made up her mind to rot this matter in her stomach, she probably couldn’t turn it on when she thought of the lacquer food box.
Thinking of this, Guan felt very guilty and uneasy, and kept complaining about why she was so troublesome. If she didn't think about going to deliver porridge yesterday, she would have nothing to do. She was stupid. The more she wanted to defend herself, the more she couldn't explain it clearly. In the end, she was cursed and swore.
Seeing that Guan was so anxious that his forehead was sweating, Luo laughed in his heart, but his face was still pitiful and pitiful, and said, "Doesn't sister really look down on the girl?"
"No, I really don't! These things are not something that we women can decide on by themselves, it's all fate!" Guan said earnestly by Luo's hand.
Luo was moved and couldn't help feeling a little guilty. He shouldn't have planned to plot against her like this, but then he thought that Liu Guotai had always been kind-hearted and was just to save her life.
She smiled and nodded, wiped the tears from her face with a handkerchief, put on a piece of clothes and turned over to the kang.
When Guan saw this, he thought she wanted to get rid of the slightest move. He pointed to the outer room and reminded him, "The toilet is next to the cabinet in the outer room. Hold the light over and don't knock it carefully."
Mrs. Luo turned around and smiled, "I'm just thirsty, so I poured a cup of tea to eat. Will my sister eat it too?"
The kang was burning hot today, and the room was already a little hot, and he was whispered by Luo for half a night. Guan felt dry mouth and smiled and said, "I'm just trying to have tea, so I'll help me pour some cups."
Luo turned his back to her, poured two cups of tea, brought it over, and handed it to Guan. Guan drank a few sips, reached out to touch the head of the kang, and the hands were burnt, and said, "Girl, we have to move the bed to the end of the kang. The kang is a little hot tonight, and the head of the kang is probably too hot to live."
Luo brought the teacup back, turned over to the kang, but held the lamp in his hand, and put it on the kang table aside, and said with a "giggle": "Sister, the girl is afraid of the cold, so she feels that she is soaked in her body!" As he said that, he took off his clothes, leaving only a big red bellyband, revealing her white flesh.
Guan hurriedly advised: "It's not easy to wear so little. You'll catch a cold in the middle of the night and have a bone ache."
Seeing Guan’s tight middle clothes, Luo smiled and said, “Good sister, you don’t feel panicked. Girls have always slept like this. It’s okay for the cold winter months, don’t worry.” As he said that, he hit the pillow with a playful look and took out a small wooden box, and said with a smile, “Sister, show you something rare!”
It opened, but there were two layers of thin books on it.
Guan said with shame: "Good girl, my father said 'A woman has no talent is virtue', and she didn't teach me how to read!"
Luo smiled and said, "What's the point of not reading? Girls don't know it! It's just reading it as a painting book, just thinking it's a look." As he said that, he opened a book, spread it on a pillow, raised the lamp, and called Guan to read it.
"Oh, I'm so embarrassed..." Guan Shichu was still not serious. After careful look, she realized that it was two naked men and women hugging each other, so she hugged each other and hurriedly covered her face and turned her head.
Mrs. Luo pulled her arm and said angrily: "Sister, we are all women's families, what's so shameful? The girl is looking for these things for the sake of her sister. Mr. Zhao spent most of the month at the foot of the mountain every month. Who doesn't know that he went to the kiln to find her sister! Although his sister is virtuous, she has passed the rules. It would be better to take a look at these ones and Shuanshuan's third master's heart; otherwise, when the third master sets up a kiln to bring back a mother to the child, it will be too late for the sister to see again! Even if the sister doesn't feel sorry for herself, she will feel sorry for the children. Mr. San is only in her thirties, and it will only take a few months to add a kid."
Guan knew her husband's faults, but she had always been gentle and had been persuaded a few times in her early years. She was afraid of slapping Master Zhao San twice and never dared to disobey him again.
Listening to Luo's words, Guan was very sad. Because her husband likes prostitution, he often lives at the foot of the mountain. The children can't see their father every ten or half a month. The older ones are better off, and they know how to recognize people. When the younger ones see their father every time, they just think they are strangers. After coaxing them for a long time, they refuse to call them "dad".
Hesitantly, Mrs. Guan was still pulled over by Mrs. Luo, lying in the quilt, and looked at it carefully. The more she looked, the more she felt her body was so hot that the quilt could no longer be covered.
After reading a book, Guan's face was already red. Luo said with a smile: "Sister has also gone to Zhongyi, and she is sweating so hard." At this point, she yawned and said: "It's late at night, I'll pour another cup of tea to moisten my throat. Let's take a break!"
Guan touched his clothes, but it was not going to be wet. He took off his clothes in the quilt, and he was like Luo, leaving only a bellyband.
Luo went to the ground to pour tea, and delivered the teacup to Guan's hand. He said sadly: "Sister, I am really close to you. If there is something that makes my sister angry in the future, I will still need to take care of it."
Guan wiped the sweat from his face, took the teacup, and said with a smile: "My sister is a heretic. I have been together for two years. The girl still doesn't know that I am a solid person and can't tell fallacies. How can I annoy the girl?"
When Mrs. Luo saw her drinking tea, she sighed in her heart. Thinking that Liu Guotai, who had been waiting in the outer room, was also a little sore, but she couldn't help but remind her again, saying, "Good sister, even if you encounter something awkward, you have to be more open-minded. In this world, there is a stepmother and a stepfather. For the sake of two young people, my sister must be happy in everything."
Guan was so strange that she heard her advice that she couldn't help but feel suspicious, and frowned: "Girl, what are you saying? Why can't I understand? Could it be that my third master is someone outside, and the girl hears the wind?"
Mrs. Luo forced a smile and said, "Sister is too careful. I just say a few more words to make my sister feel at a loss. I can save you any difficulties in the future. My sister will get into a dead end."
Guan said with a smile: "Good girl, I can't love me, I'll love you. Girl, don't worry, I've been thinking about it. Even if my third master doesn't like me, it's nothing. I just guard Xiaofeng and Xiaolong live a good life..." As he spoke, his eyes could no longer open and fell on the pillow.
Seeing that Guan Shi was drowsy, Luo felt his eyes sore that he almost burst into tears. She put Guan Shi's arms exposed outside back into the quilt, put her middle clothes on, held her bedding, and went to the outer room...
...
"What are you trying to do? The outer room is so cold, I can't make you feel sorry for me..."
"Master, my dear, are you going to force her to death? Even if my grandfather gave up his face, I would have no shame to look at it..."
"Xiuxiu is feeling uncomfortable? Isn't you so much tomorrow..."
...
In the inner house of Yizhou Daotai Mansion, Cao Yong lay on the kang and looked at Chu Yu who sang a lullaby song for Wu'er. He said resentfully: "It's better to find someone to watch Wu'er. You can't always be like this!"
Chu Yu hurriedly made a move to silence and whispered: "Mr. I finally coaxed me, and whispered softly." As he said that, he went to pat Wu'er gently, very focused.
Although it was a bit ridiculous, Cao Yong was really jealous and whispered: "I've been lying for an hour, and you are different from me."
Chu Yu was very surprised when he heard this. This was the first time she saw her husband speak in such a tone. Seeing him frowning and his face was a little dark, she felt a little uneasy.
Seeing that Wu'er was almost asleep, she called Xiyun softly and hugged Wu'er and went to the east room to settle it. Then, she came to Cao Yong's side and said, "Don't be upset, Wu'er has been pinching breasts these days, it's time to make trouble."
Cao Yong reached out and hugged her in his arms, and complained a little, "A few days ago, I have seen you take care of Wu'er, and I don't care much about my and my son. I'm nothing, Tianyou is so pitiful."
Chu Yu's body stiffened and said with a smile: "The Liu family is a stable person. Looks like he really feels sorry for Tianyou."
