Chapter 124: Planning a way out and preparing manpower (please vote for me)
The Laba holiday for the government students began, and on the afternoon of the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, all the companions came out of the palace. "" Advertisement txt download
Hutou is not an orphan. He has family, so there is no reason to celebrate the New Year in the palace, so he also follows Dao Chi. Dao Chi hesitates whether to take Hutou home and wait until the new year before sending him back to Wangjiayao.
Compared with his parents, Wang Ning loves Hutou more, and Hutou is also willing to get close to Wang Ning.
After leaving the palace, he didn't have to hesitate, because Uncle Hutou was already waiting outside the palace.
Seeing Hu Tou following Dao Chi and Wang Qi's brother, Hu Tou's second uncle looked a little embarrassed and said: "I just happened to go into the city to pay my respects to the old man. I happened to hear that the Seventh Young Master and the Second Young Master are on holiday today, so I came over to take a look.
.”
Where can there be so many coincidences in the world? I must have found out more from the clan clan before I came to wait outside the palace.
Hutou's family didn't know what Hutou was like in the palace, they just thought he was working as a follower around Dao Chi.
Hutou's mother made trouble several times, trying to get Hutou back, but they couldn't get to the palace gate. Last year in the twelfth lunar month, after Hutou returned home for the New Year, Hutou's mother refused to let him go again.
He felt that if Hutou acted like a servant, he would be tired and embarrassed, which would affect his second son's future future. He was scolded by his father-in-law before he became honest.
Dao Chi knew that the Hutou family had misunderstood, but did not take the initiative to explain.
Hutou has been in the palace for the past two years and has been cared for by everyone. He has improved a lot compared to the past. Even though he is still clumsy in speech, his mind is slightly stronger.
Dao Chi would rather Hutou's parents continue to despise him than Hutou's parents change their attitude and "love" Hutou. Because such "love" is followed by calculations from flesh and blood relatives, which is even more chilling.
When Hu Tou gets bigger and he has the support of his heir apparent, even if he is his biological parents, if they want to plot against Hu Tou, they still have to see if Hu Tou is willing to accept it.
On the other hand, Wang Fuping, because he often went to Xishan Mountain, was more respectful to the Taoist idiots. In addition, it was the old monk's last words to let the tiger head follow the Taoist idiots. Mr. Wang also knew about it. If they caused trouble here, it seemed that they didn't know it.
Anyway, I forgot my duty.
Could it be that taking the tiger's head back will erase the fact that they were once slaves? They are just deceiving themselves.
If other members of the Wang family came to pick him up, Dao Chi could still argue a few words and leave Hu Tou behind. But since Hu Tou's second uncle came over, Dao Chi would give him some face, so he wouldn't keep anyone.
In Hutou's family, this second uncle is a kind-hearted person, and he subsidizes Hutou a lot in private. Taoist idiots see this in their eyes and have a good impression of him. Thinking that the clothing store and antique store that they plan to open after the year are short of manpower, they say
: "If you still send Tiger Head to Beijing after the New Year, come and sit at my house... hunhun.com Hun*Hun Novel Network/""Advertisement Full Text txt Download"
There is no title like uncle or nephew, because in the eyes of the Hutou family, the Taoist idiot is a disciple of the old monk. If we really want to talk about seniority with the Hutou family, he is one generation higher than Wang Fuping.
Second Uncle Hutou bowed and said, "Yes, I respect the Second Young Master's orders."
Uncle Hutou took Hutou away, while Dao Chi took Jingzhe with him and continued to rub against Wang Qi's carriage.
The days in the palace were regular and boring. Thinking that he would not return to the palace until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month starting tomorrow, Wang Qi said excitedly: "Erlang, let's go to Wuchang Mansion in a few days. It's the New Year, so I have to buy some new year's goods."
Dao Chi glanced at him. It was an excuse to buy new year's goods. It was true that he liked the prosperity of Wuchang Mansion. Wang Qi was a lively person.
However, it was a rare holiday, and he wanted to go out for a walk, so he nodded and said, "Okay, but try to arrange it before the Lunar New Year. I'm afraid grandma won't let me go out after the Lunar New Year."
Wang Qi nodded with a smile and said, "Well, I'll make the arrangements. We'll set off after a few days. It'll be a year later, and I might be busy starting next year."
A mother is a filial piety for three years, and a father is a filial piety for twenty-seven months.
In September next year, the crown prince will be discharged from the throne. The formal application for the throne, the marriage between the three princesses and Wang Qi, and the selection of the crown prince's concubine will all start after the crown prince is discharged from the throne.
When he said this, Dao Chi felt awe-struck.
Is this the last year in Huguang?
Emperor Zhengde will die next year?
The provincial examination will be held the year after tomorrow. If I follow the prince to Beijing next year, I will have a lot to prepare in advance.
Wang Qi gushed about the prosperity of Wuchang Mansion, which restaurant had delicious food, which restaurant had a girl who sang well, and how time flew by.
Unknowingly, the carriage had arrived at the outer ninth house.
Thinking that it was the twelfth lunar month, most of the relatives would be socializing with each other after returning home, and they might not have time to come over. Wang Qi followed Dao Chi out of the carriage, went into the yard, paid greetings to Wang Ning, and chatted with her for a while.
Go home.
After Wang Qi left, Wang Ning took out a post.
"Who wants to host a banquet?" Dao Chi took over and asked.
In the twelfth lunar month, there are many weddings and funerals. Although there are only two grandsons left in the ninth house outside, they still have to come forward for some entertainment.
Wang Ning said: "Invitation to the twelfth lunar month, their family will serve wine on the 12th day of the twelfth lunar month."
When the Taoist idiot heard this, he couldn't help but frown.
He had already heard Wang Qi mention the matter of Fang Twelve’s return to Anlu. However, he had no intention of visiting. Ever since Wang Cui’s attack in October, Dao Chi had made up his mind not to visit Fang Twelve again.
Door.
Thinking of this, he said: "Why did their family want to treat guests at this time? Grandma doesn't need to go, it's not a wedding or a wedding."
Wang Ning said: "It's a happy event, the joy of taking a concubine. Sanlang's father wants to take a concubine."
When the Taoist idiot heard this, he asked, "Do we also need to serve wine?"
The more official a family is, the more obvious the distinction between wives and concubines is. In order to take concubines and entertain clan members, this creates a big stir.
Wang Ning said: "Look at this, Sanlang's father wants to leave Yang in Anlu to serve her mother-in-law, so he can seriously arrange wine and accept a good concubine."
The Taoist idiot heard this and said, "Has it passed?"
After the imperial court purged the Jiangxi officialdom, Wang Qinghong was able to recover, and it must have been through the help of the Yue family. However, after the recovery, he left his first wife in his hometown and took his young concubine into office, which always seemed a bit strange.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, Wang Qinghong is suspected of nepotism by taking advantage of the Yue family, and there is little gossip behind his back. But in fact, it is more about envy and jealousy. Even if someone says that Wang Qinghong is henpecked, their tone is usually sour. If
If they can get a wife who will help their future, everyone will look forward to having the opportunity to be henpecked.
Taking concubines at this time, to those who have information in the capital, Wang Qinghong is unkind and ungrateful. However, Wang Qinghong has always prided himself on being a talented man and will not admit that he has benefited from the Yue family, so he should not have thought of this.
Wang Ning said: "What if the word "filial piety" is suppressed? We can't leave the old lady over there alone in her hometown."
The Taoist idiot just asked casually. He was really not interested in the affairs of the Twelve Houses, so he said: "Grandma, there is no need to go to receive the star."
Wang Ning shook his head and said: "I'd better take a trip. Anyway, you have to go back and forth to the capital and carry things for us, so you should say thank you. As for what happened last time, we must find an explanation to save them from having to worry about it in the future...
…”
A few days later, it was the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month.
Dao Chi was worried about Wang Ning and wanted to accompany her to the banquet, but Wang Ning refused: "Since you said you won't visit their house, don't repeat it. I will go over today and will mention this to them. After all,
We are two families. If you want to call my good grandson around in the future, I won't tolerate it."
Dao Chi had no choice but to send Jingzhe to hire a carriage and ask Nanny Yan to accompany Wang Ning when she went out.
When Wang Ning went out, Taoist Chi would be free.
Bored, he left the house and strolled toward the West City.
Apart from anything else, before entering Beijing, arrangements must be made for the pawn shop. In addition to the pawn shop, preparations have also been made for clothing shops and antique shops.
This time of year ago, when some businessmen who were not doing well closed their shops, you could take advantage of this time to buy a shop.
He had already mentioned Wang Qi's shares to Wang Qi, but Wang Qi thought he was joking and just said he was not involved. In fact, when he came to Beijing, Wang Qi was the prince's companion and the unmarried guest of the three princesses.
, will also follow him to Beijing, but he can't ask Wang Qi to take care of him.
However, Wang Qi did not want to eat alone.
Although they share the same surname as Wang, there is no comparison between him, a descendant of the eldest family, and Wang Qi, a direct descendant of the clan.
With the title of Wangfu, we can stop people with foreign surnames from peeking into the pawn shop, but what about the Wang family?
You still have to talk to Wang Qi about dividing the shares. It just so happens that you can borrow some manpower from Wang Qi. The pawn shop currently uses the same manpower that Rong Niang arranged last year. Dao Chi has been using it for more than a year and feels that it is still a good job.
Yes, but I don’t want them to interfere with the clothing stores and antique stores anymore.
If you want to keep the business going for a long time, you can't live without your own people. The second uncle Hutou, Dao Chi, thinks it's good. Even if he's not very smart, he's better at being honest. I won't be afraid to use him as the shopkeeper.
It's a mess in private.
Now, the second uncle Hutou is working as a small steward in the clan shop, poaching people directly. The clan house is not looking good either, so it seems that Wang Qi would be better off...
Twelve rooms, main room.
A lot of female relatives from the clan came, and half of them took the opportunity to flatter and ask for favors. A while ago, the Twelve Rooms closed their doors to thank guests, and many people were anxious. The other half of them were not interested, but they came to see Wang Yang's jokes.
There is no forced smile, no constant love, the Wang Yang family behaves gracefully and regally, still looks dignified and cheerful, entertains the female members of the family, is gentle, courteous, and generous, without any pretense of imperial orders.
Those who wanted to watch the excitement had their eyes glued to Wang Yang's face, wishing they could see a hole in it.
But Wang Yang's delicate and smooth skin told them that she was not covered by makeup, and her face was truly radiant, and there was no hidden haggard appearance.
Everyone was not angry and could not help but say a few words on their lips.
Wang Yang only listened with a faint smile, looked at the speaker intently, and had no other reaction. But even so, it scared many people.
After all, Mrs. Wang Yang has a "famous reputation". It would not be surprising if she behaved badly, but only if she really becomes "virtuous and generous" would everyone be surprised.
Now she only gives her a flirtatious look, and other people who want to speak out of jealousy will just shut up and do nothing else, for fear that she will hold a grudge.
Everyone has the heart to bully the weak and fear the strong. If Wang Yang didn't have a "notorious reputation" and was blindly virtuous, all kinds of ridicule would have followed one after another...
