The young man riding on the horse looks more noble. He doesn't wear too many accessories, just a robe. His face has a simple and beautiful look, as if no matter what happens, he will always cherish it.
Be kind and uphold justice.
Therefore, what Qi Defang said cannot be questioned.
Qi Defang turned around and followed everyone to the Yamen. After walking a few steps, he couldn't help but approach Zhang He. He still had many things to say.
"Don't worry," Qi Defang looked at Zhang He, "If you are wronged, I will also help you."
Zhang He made a rumble in his throat and his face turned red. He obviously wanted to insult Qi Defang.
"Uncle Zhang family, it's not that I want to say something to you," Qi Defang sighed, with an angry expression on his face, "For the sake of my uncle, I should have the demeanor of a young man from aristocratic family outside. Do you know that,
Every move you make represents the Zhang family. If Uncle Guo sees you like this..."
Qi Defang frowned, as if he was very disgusted: "I'm afraid Uncle Guo will not dare to recognize you, a descendant of the Zhang family.
But don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone.”
Zhang He's breathing became heavy, and now the Prince of Shunyang County was already announcing loudly that when he returned to the capital, everyone would definitely know.
It is impossible to cover up this matter.
…
Xu Qing'an watched Qi Defang send Zhang He into the Yamen, and nodded with satisfaction: "Xiaofang really has a way, I didn't misjudge him.
Seeing how Zhang He still has the nerve to ask to marry my sister this time, and not looking at what kind of person he is, the Zhang family wanted to send him to my home.
If I were him, I would just pull out a hair from my nose and hang myself, so as not to embarrass myself here."
Zhang Zhenren stroked his beard with an inscrutable look on his face. This time it was much easier to do it than he thought. It really was easy to get things done when there were so many people.
He should be getting fifty thousand taels of silver soon! Thinking of that silver, he was particularly tempted.
I don’t know what’s going on with Miss Xu.
Just as Master Zhang was thinking about it, he saw Mother Wei rushing over with her mother-in-law. She must have known that something was wrong with the Zhang family and came to help immediately.
After this incident, not only did they get rid of the Zhang family, but they also made the Queen Mother never think about getting married again.
In addition, Miss Xu should have other gains.
…
Xu Qinghuan got off the carriage and felt much more relaxed without the eyeliners of the Queen Mother and the Zhang family around her. The Queen Mother had used the excuse of Princess Huayang to push Mother Wei to her side.
When they met for the first time, she already knew that Mother Wei was definitely not the confidant of the eldest princess. Mother Wei did not hide it. When talking to her, she seemed to be friendly to the eldest princess, but there was some rawness in her words.
While the Queen Mother used her status to scare her, she also asked the Zhang family to make proper arrangements. If she was frightened and hesitant, she might be able to tolerate it temporarily, but this would put herself in a dangerous situation.
After returning to the capital, the Queen Mother used this as an excuse to remind her that she had received favors from the Queen Mother and the Zhang family, and Zhang He escorted her all the way. If the Xu family wanted to push back the marriage, it would be even more troublesome.
Fortunately, Zhang He was an impatient person and never put women in his eyes, thinking that she would commit herself to him after seeing such a situation.
When Xu Qinghuan thought of this, the carriage just stopped.
Feng Chu immediately followed Xu Qinghuan out of the car, and the carriage stopped in front of a small yard.
"Miss, do you want me to knock on the door?" Meng Lingyun stepped forward and said.
Xu Qinghuan shook his head: "It's dawn, and the people in the yard should have woken up. Let's just stand here for a while, waiting for him to come out."
After a while, the door opened, and a man in his forties walked out. He was holding farm tools in his hands. He was obviously going to work in the fields. Unexpectedly, he raised his eyes and saw the girl standing at the door.
"Who is this young lady here for?" The man looked around and asked in a low voice.
Xu Qinghuan stepped forward and saluted: "I'm here to see Mr. Dong."
Mr. Dong? The middle-aged man was slightly startled when he heard this, but he immediately smiled: "I'm afraid the eldest lady has found the wrong place. The people living around here are poor people who have made a living by farming for generations. There are no gentlemen.
"
After the man finished speaking, he was about to leave. Xu Qinghuan stretched out his hand with a piece of rice inside: "Who said that a gentleman can only teach people to read and write, but he can also teach people to farm and cultivate the land."
The man stopped and moved his tanned neck slightly.
“Everywhere you look here is fertile land, it’s all thanks to my teacher’s teachings, but this is not the only land in Zhou Dynasty.
Is there a place you know of? There is also a large area of land that is deserted and uncultivated. Many people make a living by doing business and often take risks for smuggling. Most of the local military households’ farmland is also deserted and cannot grow crops. In the event of war, the court will
They will levy grain from the people, making them even more impoverished. I heard someone say that there is no land that cannot grow food. It was Mr. Dong who said this, so I came to look for Mr. Dong and ask him how he cultivated the land.
square."
The man turned his head: "Where are you talking about?"
Xu Qinghuan said: "Changzhou.
Sir, are you willing to go?"
Xu Qinghuan handed over the greeting card: "In a few days, someone will come to invite you, sir. Please consider it during this time."
Looking at the post handed over to him, the man was a little stunned.
…
Xu Qinghuan got back on the carriage, and Feng Chu looked very happy.
"The eldest lady is really thoughtful," Feng Chu said with a smile, "We haven't gone to the southeast yet, and the eldest lady is already worried about food. In fact, the slave is also very worried. There is not as much food in that place as in Beijing. I have only been there for a few days.
I have already lost two pounds. If I had been there all year round, I would probably be skinny and bones."
Feng Chu was eating soybeans while talking. She gave Zhang He a bowl of croton soup, and then hurried over to serve the eldest lady. How could he have such strength without eating more.
Xu Qing looked at Feng Chu with a smile. The southeast is indeed not easy. It costs a lot of money to maintain the big ships all year round. I am afraid it will be difficult to prosper just by making a living at sea.
In the previous life, Mr. Dong may not have had much reputation in front of others, but she also worked hard to invite him to Northern Xinjiang, led military households and people to reclaim wasteland, and hoarded a lot of military rations for Li Xu.
When she begged Mr. Dong again in this life, she felt a little more respect and admiration in her heart.
At this point, everything that needs to be done on the way back to Beijing is done. The next step is to go home and reunite with my grandmother and mother.
I hope the Zhang family will not be too surprised by what happened today.
After all, they were the ones who plotted against her, and not everyone had to accept it, but she had a good tooth.
…
Anyihou Mansion.
Mrs. Xu waited anxiously for several days, and finally received the news from the steward: "The eldest lady will be able to enter the city today. The prince sent someone to send a message back saying that everything is safe."
Amitabha.
Mrs. Xu thought silently in her heart and immediately went to report to Mrs. Xu.
"Hurry up, hurry up," Mrs. Xu said, "the kitchen is moving, Qing Huan's room is tidying up again."
Xu Qingyue said with a smile: "Eldest sister's carriage is coming soon, I'll go to the Chuihua Gate to greet it."
