Wu Ershun and Chen sent the matchmaker and the bride's family out. They were complaining to each other in low voices, and looked up when they heard the sound.
"Luo'er!"
Wu Ershun was happy, but Chen felt that she had embarrassed her daughter.
Wu Luo lowered his head and looked at the two women from the woman's family, "This is..."
Chang Wuniang thought of Wu Ershun's secrecy when mentioning his daughter, as if he was going to jail.
The daughters of immigrants from the Northern Liao Dynasty would at best marry a trafficker and a pawn.
So Chang Wuniang didn't take it too seriously... She was a matchmaker in five nearby villages and had her own business. If Wu Ershun hadn't been willing to pay, she really didn't want to do this job.
Before she came, she briefly inquired about the situation of the Wu family. Some people said that the daughter of the Wu family had come back in a carriage and was at the head of the village.
Just got off the car.
carriage!
Chang Wuniang smiled, there were a lot of horse-drawn carriages in Northern Xinjiang nowadays. There were many horse-drawn carriages, so some people used them to solicit passengers. They traveled along the official road from the county seat for a maximum of thirty miles, picking up and dropping off guests along the way.
This place is more than three miles outside the city, and we still need to take a carriage. Isn't this pretentious?
Thinking of Chang Wuniang, she traveled around five surrounding villages with a pair of iron legs, not even using a donkey, so how could she use a carriage?
She stared blankly at the carriage outside Wu's house. The carriage looked ordinary on the outside, but the wood... Chang Wuniang, whose father and brother were both carpenters, rubbed her eyes and swore that the wood for this carriage could be bought.
Go to the Wu family's house.
Also, there was a maid.
The gods, and a few guards who looked particularly majestic... were actually carrying long bows. When their eyes glanced at Chang Wuniang, she couldn't help but tremble.
But the two women from the bride's family were already in a daze.
The Wu family has a daughter who is said to be serving people in the county town. As for the owner of the family, she has not been told or found out.
Chang Wuniang was a competent matchmaker and told the woman all the news.
A maid?
After the woman learned the news, she naturally looked down on the Wu family.
Therefore, her aunt was not supposed to come this time, but she was worried that her aunt would be soft-hearted and be deceived, so she followed her.
But the woman in front of her was so beautiful that her heart skipped a beat. Her aura was indescribable, like nobility, but also...arrogance.
Is this the daughter of the Wu family?
I look at it, why is she a noble girl?
Seeing that the two of them were blocking the door, Chang Wuniang suddenly had several thoughts in her mind...
It seems that most of the daughters of the old Wu family work in noble families. Noble families... If they are maids, how can they have such power when they go out? And there is also a maid who serves them.
Most of them are concubines.
The concubine makes sense, but are there too many guards?
This is mostly because of favor.
A nobleman's favored concubine, this marriage...
Wrong!
Chang Wuniang's eyes shone brightly and she said, "I've seen Mrs. Wu!"
She turned around and said to Wu Ershun: "Don't worry, Old Wu, Dalang's marriage has been left to me!"
Then, she smiled kindly at Wu Da and said, "You are such a handsome young man. He looks so talented. I will find you a well-informed and sensible young lady later on."
"Stay here!"
The aunt turned around and said, "This matter must be done on a first-come, first-served basis!"
The aunt's eyes changed when she looked at Wu Da, "Young people like this are rare nowadays."
Seeing that Wu Luo was puzzled, Chen came out, took her into the house and whispered the matter in a low voice.
Among the crowd watching the excitement outside, two men spoke in low voices.
"Are you an immigrant there, or are you serving in a noble family?"
"You can ask."
Wu Luo entered the house, and the guards immediately brought in a box.
"Bringing something back again!" Mrs. Chen gently patted the back of Wu Luo's hand.
"There's no need for me there!"
The Duke's Mansion provides all food, clothing, housing and transportation. Wu Luo now has a different status and earns a lot of money every month. And unlike those maids, she doesn't like to go shopping, so she can leave a lot of things every month.
Chang Wuniang coughed dryly and said, "Logically, we shouldn't bother you. We're just going to marry Da Lang today..."
The woman's aunt smiled and said, "I would like to ask where Mrs. Wu works?"
In this era, family comes first, everyone is a member of the family, and married women can still help the family.
What a proud person Wu Luo is?
She didn't even show off to Yang Guogong at the beginning, but she was naturally displeased when the two women talked about interests so harshly.
Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "Luo'er is here to help you in the mansion. Do you know that?"
Guest?
The Wu family was still a wealthy family back then, but after arriving in northern Xinjiang, they were unfamiliar with the place and were at the bottom of the despised chain, so they had to keep their tail between their legs.
Now that her daughter was back, Mrs. Chen thought of the aggrieved feeling of being rejected before, and inevitably she showed off her previous aura.
I'm afraid we may have misjudged this family.\n...The two women from the woman's family looked at each other.
"I think this marriage is a great one!" said my aunt very confidently: "My little lady is very good at needlework. She can do it at the age of twelve to help the family. She is also good at cooking. When the farm is busy, she is the one cooking at home.
When it comes to housekeeping, I'm not as good as her."
With a smile on her face, my aunt said, "When you are busy, you can also work in the fields!"
"By the way. My little lady has been learning weaving in the past two years..."
In an instant, the woman took the initiative to recommend him.
After talking about a basketful of things, we still have to wait for the Wu family to finally add up.
The two women from the bride's family said before leaving that they would not save on the dowry.
After they left, Wu Luo said to his parents, "Our family doesn't rely on this, so we don't have to empty out our family's wealth."
"Luo'er." Mrs. Chen hesitated, "Where are you now..."
"I'm just helping my wife take care of things!" Wu Luo said calmly.
"Isn't that the female steward?" Ms. Chen was surprised.
"Look what you said, the female steward is a slave!" Wu Ershun said with disdain: "Luo'er is from a good family."
"That's right." Mrs. Chen looked at her daughter, then at her son, "How about we look at each other again for Da Lang?"
"Are you not satisfied with this?" Wu Ershun asked.
Chen said: "I think my background is a bit different!"
Wu Ershun sighed, "Look at the height of a mountain. Our family is an ordinary family after all."
"Isn't this You Luo'er!"
"It's not easy for Luo'er in that mansion, why bother her?"
The couple started to argue.
Wu Luo asked his brother, "How do you feel, brother?"
Wu Da scratched his head, "In the past, your sister-in-law knew how to play music, chess, calligraphy, and calligraphy, and she knew etiquette when she looked at her. But I always felt that something was missing.
Later, the family failed and she ran away. After arriving in northern Xinjiang, I thought about it for a long time.
When I have nothing to do, I just wander around the village, watching ordinary couples, some bickering, some even yelling... But when it comes to eating, you give me a piece of meat, and I give you a piece of cake.
Luo'er, at that moment I thought of your sister-in-law, and I felt that she and I had never been intimate."
Wu Luo nodded.
"I used to think that music, chess, calligraphy and painting were indispensable, and etiquette was even more so. It is enviable for a husband and wife to raise their eyebrows evenly.
But after arriving in northern Xinjiang, I realized that my life is my own, and how I live it is also your own business. Don't listen to those people's messing around, what's the matter of raising eyebrows, and what's treating each other as guests... That's nothing to do.
It’s all nonsense. I just feel that a husband and wife are considerate of each other and help each other.”
"What about my former sister-in-law?"
Wu Da thought for a moment, "Like a guest."
Wu Luo understood. Seeing that his parents were still arguing, he said, "Aye, auntie."
"ah!"
Wu Ershun and Chen made a truce.
Mrs. Chen smiled and said: "Luo'er knows a good girl ()?"
Wu Luo shook his head, "In that mansion, most of the people I saw were maids. Those kind of people have higher standards than the daughters of wealthy families, so they are not suitable for me. As for those who interact with my wife, that is not what our family can expect."
Seeing Mrs. Chen's expression of disappointment, Wu Luo said: "Auntie, be a good person! Don't always think about relying on others. I have heard a saying, it's like relying on the mountain to fall, relying on everyone to run."
The Duke even said that the family fortune and future you earned through trickery will eventually be paid back in other ways. This is the way of heaven."
She looked at her brother, "I was worried at first that my brother was too ambitious, but unexpectedly he turned out to be very sincere. I think he has the best choice for his marriage."
"But I'm worried that he has seen the wrong person!" Chen said, "In terms of eyesight, can he still compare to me?"
"It's not as good as A-niang!" Wu Luo said with a smile, "But you and A-ye think it's okay first, then brother, if you both think it's okay, then it's done."
Mrs. Chen nodded.
Wu Luo asked: "How about this today?"
Mrs. Chen said: "Chang Wuniang took me to see her outside secretly. She is a capable person, but..."
"But what?"
"It's too ordinary."
"In other words, there's nothing serious wrong with me."
"Um!"
"Where's my brother?" Wu Luo asked his brother.
"I used to think about getting a career as an official or joining the army. When I arrived in northern Xinjiang, I also complained about myself and felt that my fate was unfair. But in the past two years, I have been working at sunrise and resting at sundown. My sister,
You don't know, but I actually feel that this is how to live.
Wu Da said: "Looking at the morning sun when you go out, and facing the sunset when you return home, you don't have to be suspicious of others, and you don't have to worry about anything."
Wu Ershun smiled and said: "This man! You have to understand why you live, that is, how you want to live. If you think about it thoroughly, you will know what you want."
Wu Da nodded, "I just want to live like this, quiet and without fighting against the world."
Wu Luo said: "In that case, please go back and ask Chang Wuniang to take my brother to see that woman!"
Wu Da smiled and said: "Actually, I am satisfied to know that she is so capable."
Mrs. Chen said dissatisfiedly: "What if it's a shrewd one?"
Wu Da disagreed, "Auntie, if a woman is aggressive, that's for the family. It's good to be gentle and virtuous, but it's also easy to be bullied.
In the past few years, I have thought through it thoroughly. There is no perfect person in this world. If it is good here, other places must not be good. Isn’t this life about appreciating her good qualities and ignoring her bad qualities? "
Wu Luo looked at his brother, Yang Xuan's figure flashed in his mind.
Appreciate her good qualities and ignore her bad qualities.
Wu Luo said: "My brother is at home, so I feel relieved."
"Is this Wu Ershun's family?"
Someone called the door outside.
"It sounds strange."
Chen stood up and Wu Da said, "I'll go!"
Wu Luo put on the Mi Luo, and then Wu Da entered the house with two men.
"Aye, these two just came from Beiliao."
The two men laughed, and one of them said: "We are doing business together. I learned that your family is from Bei Liao. We just came back and brought some goods from Bei Liao. Would you be interested?"
Mrs. Chen was startled, her eyes showing memories, "It's been a long time!"
Wu Ershun said: "Look what's there!"
Two businessmen went out and came in with two large bundles.\n
Wu Luo looked at the two of them, and suddenly several people he saw in the front yard of Yang's house appeared in his mind.
Jinyiwei!
Those Jinyi guards also laughed and were very friendly, just like these two men.
But their smiles were extremely shallow, and there was a coldness deep in their eyes.
Looking at people is like looking at ants!
Wu Luo doesn't like to talk. He is a silent person who likes to think about people and affairs.
She had thought about the people in Jinyiwei. Jinyiwei () had the power of life and death. If a person stayed like this for a long time, he would definitely treat people as if they were nothing.
Jinyiwei is because of his authority, then these two people...
For a businessman to be harmonious and make money, his smile must be as sincere as possible.
Wu Luo stood up and said, "Mom, I'm going out for a walk."
"Follow me, Da Lang!" Mrs. Chen was worried that her daughter would be disadvantaged because she was too beautiful. Wu Luo did not refuse, and the brother and sister left the house.
Several guards were squatting diagonally opposite and talking. When they saw Wu Luo coming out, one of them stood up and said, "Ms. Wu is going to..."
Wu Luo walked over and whispered: "There is something wrong with the two men who just entered!"
The guard's eyes narrowed, "What's wrong?"
"When I looked at them, I thought of the Imperial Guards."
"Eagle Guard!"
The guard looked at Wu Luo, "Ms. Wu, maybe you are sure?"
"Businessmen don't have that kind of look."
Wu Da scratched his head, "My sister has been good at recognizing people since she was a child."
Sensitive people talk more and talk less, and some are even indifferent.
But they have one thing in common, that is, their five senses are sharp.
When they feel something is wrong with a person, 90% of the time there is something wrong with that person.
The guard turned around, whispered to several companions, and then came over and asked, "It's not easy to do anything in the Wu family!"
Wu Luo nodded, "If you fight and kill, you will be alienated by the villagers."
The guard said, "Well, I'll wait until they come out before taking action.
Wu Luo said: "That's fine. However, if I saw it wrong, I will apologize when the time comes."
"Mrs. Wu, there is no need to worry about this. We have a solution."
Yang Xuan's guard has experienced this kind of thing a lot.
Wu Luo and Wu Da walked around the village. After returning home, the two men just said goodbye.
"Aye, what did they ask?"
Wu Luo asked.
"Two idiots, they thought their father was stupid, and they kept talking to Luo'er, asking Luoer where you are and what you do in that house..."
What a pity, Wu Ershun was the head of a wealthy family back then, wouldn't he know about all these twists and turns?
Suddenly there was the sound of fighting outside, followed by screams.
Immediately, the sound faded away.
Wu Da came in and said excitedly: "Those guards were so skilled that they restrained those two people in one go."
Wu Ershun asked: "Are all the guards in the mansion so powerful?"
Wu Luo nodded, "Not the most powerful."
The most powerful ones are the big men around the Duke, carrying iron sticks, they can be called ghosts and gods.
Not long after, a guard came in.
"It smells of blood." Wu Da whispered.
The guard saluted, "This is the Eagle Guard from Cangzhou. The brothers succeeded in the attack because of their calculations but not their intentions. Mrs. Wu has made a great contribution."
Wu Luo nodded, "That's good."
...
"Over in Cangzhou, Governor Helian will definitely launch a large-scale attack this year under Ning Xing's urging. Don't think that Governor Helian only has a few men. Ning Xing's reinforcements will arrive after spring."
In the duty room, Shen Changhe looked at Yang Xuan with bright eyes, "As I said before, the three states are friends of Northern Xinjiang. If we want the three states to contain Governor Helian, it will take fifty thousand shi of food."
Yang Xuan looked at him with squinted eyes. At this time, He Lian Yan came outside. After coming in, he walked to Yang Xuan's side, leaned down, and said in his ear: "The guards who followed Wu Luo back caught the two sent by Governor He Lian. Eagle Guard. After torture, I learned that Governor Helian wanted to find out whether there were any movements to send troops to our northern border."
This is a guilty conscience!
The corners of Yang Xuan's mouth raised slightly and he said to Shen Changhe:
"dream!"
